~ArnoldI had not been happy with the development that was happening at the pack.“Alpha Arnold….” Roman had called out to me one night. I had begun to contemplate on what to do but nothing seemed to cross my mind. I just could not let her go so easily. I had to do something about it.“What do you want?” I questioned, turning my back to him. I expected him to leave but he was hell bent on coming to me even further.“I do not want you here. You should leave now while you have the chance. I just want you to…”“I can help you.” He suddenly spoke, causing me to arch my brows. I did not expect to hear any of what he had just said.“Help me? For what?”There was definitely no way he would have an idea of what was going on with me so what help was he talking about?“I know everything. I know you want Kaleigh to yourself. Not because you like or love her but….” He looked around suspiciously. “only because you are interested in her power.” He whispered. I feigned ignorance at first. I could no
~KeleighMy whole seemed to be coming to an end the moment I got to know that he had been abducted. I had never felt so scared and worried in my entire life like I did over the few days that passed. First, it was Selene trying to hurt me and kill me.My soul had left my body the moment the knife was placed on my neck. I was even more shocked or perhaps, startled when I got to know that she was the one. She was the last person I expected to see. How had she escaped? How had she come into my room? How had she know where I was staying? How had she been able to access me?I had so many questions ringing through my head at the same time but the one that yelled at me the most was if I was going to die without seeing Ryker ever again. I would be so hurt and so shattered never to see him again.That had however given me the strength to fight her back and it had turned into a wrestle. I would rather die trying than not attempting at all. That would hurt me the most.Thankfully, Arnold and Ryke
~KeleighEverything did seem off and strange. First, it was Arnold’s confession down to his actions and now, Roman's speech?I was confused and I was beginning to lose my mind. I had no idea of what was going on but I sure did know that I was not going insane.They were trying so hard to make me feel like I was losing my sanity and I knew I was not. I was heartbroken at the fact that everyone had decided to make me feel miserable.I wanted to thank Roman for advising me the first time about the brothers even though I had turned deaf ears to him but again, I remembered he had played a great role in making everything complicated.My whole world was spinning and it felt like I was not going to survive it. I was just not myself. I did not feel so good. I looked up at Roman. How could he betray me once again? I guess I had been such a fool to trust him that much. I should not have listened to him. I had no idea what the arrangement between him and Arnold was but seeing Arnold on the floor,
KeleighI was not myself anymore. I wished death would embrace me with its cold arms but I also wished to see Ryker one last time. I had gone through so much in just a short time of being there.I had been ill-treated and locked away from everyone else. Alpha Jake did confess to me that the only purpose why he tried to come back for me was because he knew the type of power that was in me and had come for it. I was dazed.I guess Ryker was the only one who genuinely cared about me. I had continually wait each day for death when I suddenly got to know that the pack was being attacked. I had no idea what was going on but my heart raced so hard as I feared something could have happened to me.All the guards that watched over the prisoners had gone out as well to check what was going on and had begun to battle just like everyone else. We were however able to release ourselves.My joy knew no bounds the moment I got to know that Alpha Ryker was up and healthy once again. To my greater surpr
KeleighI looked at Arnold and even though he was injured, I felt little to no pity for him, I stared at him with no remorse in my eyes, eyeing him disdain my. Jake was arrested and we headed back home. Jake was beyond shocked that things would take a turn like that in such short time.A couple of minutes ago, I was doubting if I would live again and he was acting all powerful, just like the same way he did in the beginning, making everyone asides him look like a weakling only to end up as one. A few hours ago, my life was in his hands but in such a short time, his life ended up in my hands. How sweet it was for the tables to be turned!Arnold was not comfortable throughout the journey and Ryker did try to ask what was going on with him. I wished I could expose him but I wanted him to confess his own sins himself.The whole pack jubilated the moment we returned. We had left sorrowfully, not on our own accord but now, we were returning victoriously and happily.Arnold barely smiled as e
KELEIGH’S POVMy father’s claws gleamed in the light of the overhead lamp of the room as he raised his hand in the air, preparing to swipe. My breath caught in my throat as I pressed against the wall he had roughly pushed me into in a rage after he had caught I and Jake in the act of canoodling. He roared in fury as he bore down on Jake.I could understand why he was so enraged. Jake was the Alpha of the Moonlight pack, and my father was the Alpha of our pack, the Wesselton Pack. Both our packs have been in a bloody feud for so long that no one even remembered how it started in the first place. Countless wolves from both packs had died for generations over this feud.And Jake was about to be the next person.“My daughter!” My father growled at him. "How dare you!"My heart galloped with panic as I stared at the scene in front of me. My father in a state of half-shift, his clothes already partly torn from it. Jake, pinned below him, his eyes filled with so much fear and shock as he st
KELEIGH’S POV“Jake,” I said softly, pain lancing through my chest as I stared at this man, the man that I loved, now turned a monster overnight. I looked into those hazel eyes flecked with blood to know if this was all an act, if there was some other motive behind him killing my father and part of my pack.I saw nothing but darkness and hate. I could barely see through my tears as I stumbled over the several bodies on the floor and out into the night. I took a moment to take one last look back at the warehouse, the last memory that I will have of my time in the pack, the memory that would overshadow the others and haunt my dreams for the rest of my life. Then I turned and sprang into the woods, brushes and thorny shrubs tearing at me in my haste to get far, far away.The woods had never scared me before. I had practically grown up in the woods all my life, like the rest of the wolves in my pack. They were as familiar to me as my own skin, and how I had loved to revel in it. The fre
ARNOLD’S POVI stared at the girl, my eyes widened. I was stunned by her audacity, if not for the fact that things were normal one minute and the next everything began to spiral. I had been in bed, finally getting ready to get some sleep after working hard all night and then Ryker had come in like the kill joy that he was and told me that there was something that needed attending to.And that ‘thing’ that needed attending to was this girl, apparently. “The fuck is going on here?” I muttered to my twin after the girl had just rejected the two of us in front of the entire park.Ryker looked at me, his eyes gleaming. “Can’t you feel it? The mate bond is strong between us. We’ve found our mate, brother.”I understood that. But what I didn’t understand was her rejecting us, humiliating us in front of the entire pack by just taking one look at us. Who did she think she is, as tattered and dirty as she was, that we would want her in the first place?“Yeah, I know that,” I replied to Ryker,
