THIRD PARTY’s POV….From a distance, Tristan caught sight of Amanda who was sitting by the pool, looking so sad and broken. He knew that something was off with her and he needed no one to tell him that whatever it was concerned Jason. He hissed softly as Jason’s name came to mind, Amanda was never sad for any reason other than that man. Why did he make it his life’s mission to ruin the poor lady? He hated the beta for this.Amanda remained in her own world, taking in the calmness of the quiet pool and trying to disengage her mind from the countless disturbing thoughts that poured in.That moment, she felt a hand on her bare shoulders and immediately, her eyes shot open. At first, she had thought it was Jason and this caused her heart to beat, even if she was enraged. However, the moment her eyes fell on Tristan, her eyes softened, but that lasted for only a second. The next second, she quickly wore a cold gaze and took his hand off her shoulders.“What are you doing here?” Am

AMANDA’s POV…Was my day going to be anymore worse? This was the question that thrummed in my head as I gazed at Jason who was currently gazing at me with a smirk that made my stomach ache.“Can you let me be? I came out here to have a quiet time to myself”, I finally said to him the moment I regained my voice.He chuckled calmly after which he crouched low and sat beside me, staring at me in a way and manner that made my heart twitch. “You don’t get it, do you? I can’t let you be because you belong to me”, he replied as he stretched his hands and tucked my hair beneath my ears.I froze the moment his hands touched my hair, but regained my stance almost immediately.“Please…let me be alone”, I pleaded with him, trying so hard to stop my heart that was beating out of my chest. He smiled again and this time, wiped the tears that were scattered all over my face. I stared at him intently, wondering how it was possible for someone to switch up in a split second. A moment ago, he was la

He direly needed to know what happened to his mate, and I decided to lay it out to him. Not actually because I was scared of him, but because I felt that he had a right to know.“She killed herself”, I started explaining while I watched how more tears poured out of the alpha’s eyes.I didn’t feel any bit of emotions, because as long as I was concerned, she was dead already and no one could do anything about it.“She went to war and was about winning when a mistake was made by one of her women. The woman died and she went over to avenge her death, even if she was injured. This was a trap set my the opposition group, because almost immediately, they were surrounded by them and taken captive. She kept bleeding and losing strength and from what I heard she was wolfless at that point”, I explained calmly.At this point, he no longer spoke or tried to command respect from me. It just seemed like he was trying to digest everything he had heard and then I had inhaled before continuing,“She t

Amanda’s PovJason said that he didn’t have a heart and I didn’t know how to react to his statement. I walked away and started heading back to my room, but on a second thought, I stopped right in my tracks.Was it possible for anyone to live without a heart?This was a question I suddenly asked myself and when I knew the answer to that, I swirled around and made my way back to him. “Jason!” I called out, causing him to stop right in his tracks. He was clearly surprised to see me returning to him after I had left.“Did you say that you have no heart?” I asked calmly while he wore a frown and nodded in affirmation.“I don’t have a heart. You would only be hurting yourself to think that I do”, he said with a smirk while I scoffed and nodded my head calmly.I wanted to prove that no creature lived without a heart, not anyone and certainly, not him…“You have a heart!” I argued and his eyes widened in surprise.He was clearly shocked that I was arguing with him about something he didn’t

AMANDA’s POVMy heart dropped the moment I saw him walking towards me without being clad in any clothes.I shifted uncomfortably on the bed and tried to get off it, but his hands firmly pinned me back to the bed.“Leave me alone! Let me be”, I screamed angrily as I tried to continuously slapped off his hands that held me.He grinned widely as he stared at my body with lustful eyes, causing my heart to race.“I would show you that you can’t do talk as you want! I own you and today, I would make sure you understand that”, Jason said with a deep, stern and coarse voice that made my stomach ache.I could feel my heart beating against my chest. He seemed to be dead serious about what he had just said, and his eyes had turned look like something else.He looked at me with pure lust; as though he wanted to grab me and dig his head into my body ferociously.“Why are you looking at me like that?” Somehow, I found way to ask him that.I was terribly scared to my bones, but I wasn’t ready to make
