Chapter: Chapter One-hundred and Fifty sixAlice's POVI sat outside on the patio, enjoying the cool breeze that rustled through the trees. The sun painted the sky in hues of orange and pink as it began its descent, casting a warm glow over our home. I sighed contentedly, cherishing this moment of tranquility amid the chaos of our Mafia life.But then, a sudden sensation washed over me, and I felt a gush of warmth. Confusion gripped me momentarily until the realization dawned upon me. My water had broken. I was going into labor."Melissa! Melissa!" I called out to one of my guards, trying to keep my voice steady despite the urgency I felt. "Please, get Liam! Tell him it's time!"Melissa, ever alert and quick to respond, dashed off to fetch my husband. Panic and excitement mingled within me as I tried to collect myself. My heart pounded in my chest, and my thoughts were a whirlwind of emotions.Within moments, I heard hurried footsteps approaching, and Liam appeared, his face etched with concern. He gathered me in his arms, his

Chapter: Chapter 155I sat in the boardroom, my back pressed against the plush chair, as boredom settled in like an unwelcome guest. The air was heavy with formality and the monotonous drone of business jargon. How I longed for something to break the monotony, a spark of excitement to ignite the dreary atmosphere.As I observed the suited executives, their faces etched with seriousness, I couldn't help but smirk to myself. They saw me as nothing more than Liam's wife, innocent and uninterested in the matters at hand. Little did they know, I had other plans for this mundane gathering.The rumors had reached my ears, whispers of Santino's involvement in shady dealings. A man so smug and self-assured, thinking he could get away with anything. Oh, how I relished the opportunity to expose his true nature, to challenge him and watch his facade crumble.Santino, sitting across the table from me, was the epitome of arrogance. His eyes glinted with a smug confidence, unaware of the storm that was about to rain dow

Chapter: Chapter One-hundred and Fifty-threeAs we decided to extend our stay in Italy for a couple more days, a sense of relaxation and adventure filled the air. I called Alek, informing him of recent events and assuring him that we were safe. With that weight lifted off our shoulders, we were free to immerse ourselves in the enchanting atmosphere of Italy.One of the places we explored was the breathtaking city of Florence. The city's rich history and artistic treasures beckoned us, and we found ourselves strolling hand in hand through the narrow cobblestone streets. The iconic Duomo Cathedral rose majestically before us, its intricate details and vibrant colors leaving us in awe. We stood in line, patiently waiting to enter the Uffizi Gallery, where masterpieces by renowned artists awaited our eager gaze.As we meandered through the gallery, each room revealing new artistic wonders, Liam's deep appreciation for art was evident.

Chapter: Chapter One-hundred and Fifty-twoAs the Mafia committee members entered the warehouse, their presence alone commanded authority. Their expressions were stern, their eyes piercing, and their voices resonated with a mixture of intimidation and determination. The Italian Don, bound and surrounded, stood before them, his defiant demeanor faltering in the face of their collective power.I watched with a mix of anticipation and apprehension as the committee began their interrogation, their questions cutting through the air like a sharpened blade. Each inquiry was calculated, designed to dismantle the Don's defenses and extract the truth.One committee member stepped forward, his voice laced with an underlying threat. "Don, your actions have endangered the delicate balance we uphold. You will find no solace in your lies. It is in your best interest to cooperate fully."The Don, visibly shaken by the committee's presence, began to realize the dire consequences of his actions. His bravado waned, and the weight of his guilt pr

Chapter: Chapter One-hundred and Fifty-oneMy heart dashed with a blend of expectation and worry as Liam masterfully explored the roads, directing our vehicle towards the inn. We needed to regroup and get ready for what lay ahead because the evening's events had taken an unexpected turn.The familiar surroundings provided a brief respite from the earlier chaos as we entered the hotel lobby. The hotel staff quickly attended to our needs because they were aware of the urgency of our movements, as Liam's dominant presence demanded attention.We hurried to our room, the snap of our strides reverberating through the hall. The entryway opened up, uncovering the quiet sanctuary that looked for us. I looked around the room, taking in the exquisite stylistic layout and the unpretentious traces of extravagance that enhanced each corner. In the midst of the chaos all around us, the atmosphere provided a brief respite.We quickly ditched our formal wear in favor of more practical and concealed attire out of a sense of urgency.

Chapter: Chapter 7It's been seven days since I started my training with the weirdo. He wasn't joking when he said it was going to be intense. Mentally, emotionally, and physically I was drained. He taught me how to meditate. He taught me a lot about the werewolf body. Where to attack and how to easily kill a werewolf. He explained it so well that I understood it perfectly.I did a lot of exercises and also learned how to fight. He taught me how to fight with my imagination.Another thing I got to know about him was that he was a dream walker. I mean how cool was that? When I slept in the night, he would appear in my dream and make me fight with werewolves. He made me practice everything he taught me during the day. He would take me to different places in the dream realm and show me different things trying to explain to me how things worked. Whenever I woke up from such dreams, I was always tired. "You know, this is the point where you need your wolf. Sort things out with her and we will continue wi

Chapter: Chapter 6Scarlet's POVI woke up feeling weak today. Ever since I was thrown into this cell, I wasn't given food. It has been three days. I looked at the cell to check if the weirdo was awake but I couldn't see much as he was in the dark part of his cell. That corner was like a shell to him.He would always recoil there whenever he didn't want to have any interaction with anyone.He's quite knowledgeable I will say, but he was also an ass. I plan on asking him to train me.Though I am not sure if that is a good idea. I don't even know him or what he can do, but I guess that doesn't matter. I have decided to leave this pack. "Someone has finally decided to grow some balls." I heard my wolf Starr say in my mind."Oh, so you have finally decided to talk? Well, right now I don't need you to start your "I told you so" talk. I can't even speak to you right now.You have not been there for me when I needed you most." And with that, I pushed her to the back of my mind. Apart from the fact that Sta

Chapter: Chapter 5I woke up feeling pain all over me. I looked around trying to decipher where I was. I noticed I was in my usual cell in the basement. It became my second home. I tried sitting up but I couldn't. I remembered how they injected me with some sort of drug.My mum. She was gone. They killed her and I've never felt so numb in my entire life. I stared into space thinking about all the moments I had with her. Nobody can replace her. Nobody. I kept staring into space for a long time thinking about my mum, till I saw those familiar golden eyes glow in the dark staring back at me."For how long will you keep thinking about her?" The owner of those eyes questioned me. "Till I die?" I replied to him. "Why are you talking to me? I thought you were dumb?" I asked him emotionlessly. Everything was beginning to irritate me. I had frequented this basement cell times without a number and he didn't speak to me. I even tried the last time I came to serve him food but he just kept staring. Now he wan

Chapter: Chapter 4 Scarlet's POV Weeks passed and I was already used to the new normal. Sharon has made my life very miserable. Gamma Tyler found his mate some weeks ago and I wished she was like Tyler. I don't know why these ladies crave so much power. When she came, she and Sharon clicked quickly. They made it a duty to make life miserable for me. So far, today has been going well. I went to the laundry to collect some of Sharon's clothes. I headed straight to her room to drop them off. I was about to leave the Alpha's floor when I noticed everyone rushing to go downstairs. That meant they were mind linked to assembling somewhere. I was not part of the mind link because when the Alpha got to know I was his mate, he rejected me. When I accepted the rejection I was no longer a member of the pack. Even though I live with them here, I was nothing more than a rouge. I don't know why they allowed me to stay in the pack but I'd rather be here than be a rouge. This reason is why my wolf doesn't want t

Chapter: Chapter 3Scarlet's POVI started with cleaning the hallways this morning. I didn't want to have any awkward encounters with the Alpha and his friends. I was sure they were still sleeping.It was still very early so most of the pack members were sleeping except for those on patrol. I was done with the first floor, so I navigated my way through the house and started heading to the second floor.As I was about to take the first step, I heard Sharon call me. I froze. "Why is she even awake by this time?" I wondered in my mind "Are you deaf?" She almost yelled."No, I'm sorry." "Make me some ramen noodles and put pickle juice right beside it. Then make my iced coffee with whipping cream. Once you are done, bring it to my room." She ordered.Then she left me and started climbing up the stairs. "I'm sorry, but I can't do that. The Alpha said…."The next thing I knew was that she was coming to me with anger, ready to give me the biggest talk of my life. "How dare you question my order?" She scr

Chapter: Chapter 2Scarlet's POV"Oh, shit shit shit" I whispered in horror as I realized I woke up late. I ran to wear my sandal and didn't bother to have my bath because any second wasted would cost me a lot.I ran out of my room and headed towards the pack house. I entered through the back door and navigated my way to the kitchen. I was about to enter the kitchen when I fell. Pain pierced through my body and I struggled to stand up. I had to muffle my screams as I didn't want to draw any attention to myself.Unknown to me, some omegas were around and were already laughing at me. Most of them were always happy to see me in pain. I stood up, raised my head, and headed straight for the kitchen.They threw vile words at me, calling me all sort of names. But over the years I've learnt to ignore them. They are not worth my peace of mind. I tried not to pay attention to the words. I heard them almost every day and I had gotten used to them over time. They were all I heard as I made my way through their
