By the next morning, the news that Chase spend the night with me has spread around the Mansion but no one knew that it was nothing like that. When he captured my lips, I pushed him away and he got mad. Confusion set upon my soul for I have seen such a man like him in my life. A lot of things run through my mind as the memory of last night strike through my mind but I pushed it aside reminding myself that I was going to forget everything that happened and remember that one; I was the rejected mate. As I entered the kitchen, Dahlia shot a smile at me, she was one of the few people who was nice to me in the Mansion."Someone is happy this morning"I already had a feeling what she was talking about but kept quiet about it. I couldn't really tell everyone what I did to the Alpha they will hate on me and at this point I might break if I get hurt any further."You and the Alpha" She smiles sheepishly. Sometimes she reminds me a lot about my self but she was better than I was. "What about us
Layla's POVWhen Quinn entered the kitchen, my heartbeat pulsated as I stared at her, The look in her eyes was frightening, I had never seen anything like it before. The woman was capable of anything and after last night, I needed to be careful so that I don't fall a victim. Even though I don't know Quinn very well was aware that she still remembered everything that happened with her brother and put the blame on me. I don't have a problem with whatever she thought but I hated it when she blamed me for something I had no control over. Chase was the Alpha and made the decision all by himself. I was even surprised to hear all that last night. Locking eyes with her, I wanted the ground to open up and swallow me so that I could get away from this situation."Is nothing, your friend here was being jealous as always. She couldn't believe that you guys lost, Is strike zero" Dahlia smirks triumphantly. By the corner of her lips, I could see something that I wasn't sure about, her eyes filled
Chase POVAnxiety dwelled in my heart as my heart falls on my sister she looked so fragile lying on the bed. I should have protected her from Layla then perhaps this wouldn't have happened. She was just like her father Jacob. He might be her Foster father but she was as wicked as he was. I couldn't believe she will hurt my sister and still deny it all. Her Silence assured me it was her who did it, if it wasn't for Francesca who saw it away and came to call me then Dahlia might have died and she will run away. After what I did last night I was mad at myself for daring to do such outrageous thing, Layla was a beautiful woman but she was just like every other woman I have come across, they were like poison. If I had been aware that Jacob felt nothing for her as his daughter, wouldn't have gotten married to her. But my plans were bigger and so I had to endure it all."Is she going to be alright? I asked the pack Doctor for the tenth time and he nodded his head. I would take his word for
Chase POV"Francesca, what are you doing here?" I was surprised to see her standing by the doorstep of the bathroom. Francesca was trying too hard this time around and I don't know why, she would never chase me into the bathroom in the past. Was she doing this because of Layla? I was angered seeing her walking closer to me but I couldn't bring my lips to move and so I reached out for my towel and covered my body. "Chase, I love you""Francesca!""That woman hurt your little Dahlia and as if that isn't bad she is trying so hard for her to get into your life. She must be onto something don't you think?""I don't know what you are talking about, why would she be up to anything?" I was confused she was not making any sense. I understood that Layla was shy and quiet but I figured it must be what happened with her Foster father Jacob and her stepbrother. The people around her are evil and perhaps she might be one of them as well but I don't think Jacob gave her an special order. She was no
Layla's POV"Tell me the truth and I might reconsider punishing you"When the words left his words, I was suddenly filled with life. Even though I never admitted the truth to anyone, getting punished was something that I wanted to avoid. My soul was wearing out, at this point, I might pass out if any more pain was inflicted on my body. "What is it? Ask me anything and I will be honest with you""How did you turn out to be my mate in such a short moment?" "I don't understand you Alpha""What exactly don't you fathom? Let me rephrase this so you will understand, someone in your pack killed someone from my pack and you happened to be the objects of appease between both packs so I wouldn't rip your pack apart but how come you arrived in my pack and after a month you turn out to be my mate, isn't that suspicious?""I don't know Alpha Chase, I had no clue you were the Alpha until you said it, How could I deceive you or let my father manipulate me Into doing something so stupid"That was t
Chase's POVWhen I opened the door of her room, I was frozen for a moment seeing her standing with Henry Thompson, he was Gamma in my pack. Anger seeped through me, I didn't know that Henry was her friend as well, I only knew of Alice but seeing him holding her hand so protectively, anger seeped through me. "What is going on here?" I asked and was even more surprised when he pushed her behind him, glaring at me. The bravery of the Gamma to stand there with the woman who was my wife. The manner he pushed her behind him caused my adrenaline to rush up and I took a step toward them."Nothing is going on here Alpha"Glancing over him, I saw Layla standing there, trembling in fear, sweat covering her forehead, her gaze lowered down, she couldn't make eye contact with me much to my displease. This woman was getting on my nerves, first, she was the daughter of Jacob and as if that wasn't enough she had to bring a man Into her room. That was insulting and humiliating.I may not know much abo
Layla's POVWhen I jumped in between him and Henry, he was shocked over my actions but he wasn't the only one who was fazed by my actions. Henry was surprised as well and so was I. I might be restricted by chains but I will never let anyone get hurt in place of me. Henry did something no one has ever done for me ever since I stepped foot in the pack, he stood up for me and challenged the Alpha and I sincerely appreciated all that he did.However, I couldn't just let him fight Chase, he was going to kill him, I saw it by the corner of his eyes. No matter how this turns out to be, Chase is a ruthlessly Alpha who has no heart and doesn't show mercy so he won't fail to give Henry a slow yet painful death. Henry was willing to sacrifice everything and that included his life but that wasn't my plan. I couldn't let him do that, the consequences were devastating, I couldn't just sit and watch while one of the very few who cared about me died."Please forgive him" I whispered hoping that he wo
Chase POVThis woman that I am stupid her lies, I had suspected that Jacob tricked me but now I was certain that this was also part of her plot. She was up to something and I was going to figure so that I could be sure how to deal with her. She was surprised as the words left my mouth but that wasn't enough for me to make her pay for trying to deceive me. I couldn't believe that she was giving herself so cheap to Henry. Staring at Henry, he shook his head disappointedly by my actions but every of my actions was justified. He caused me a lot of Pain in the past and I promised him that I was going to make him, now I will have to punish him for what he did to Roni and me. A lot of things happened back then and I couldn't get my revenge, nothing was stopping me now."You know we are not doing anything wrong" He snapped attempting to attack me when Layla held him back. She shook her head at him reminding him that he only mattered worse if he tried to fight his through. The only one who is
