Chapter 3

• BRIELLE
• Trembling, I crawled back from this green eyed beast, scared of what it might do to me if I tried to call out for help.
• "Who are you?" I questioned, drawing closer to the door.
• She came out laughing, saying, "So you still haven't guessed it huh? I literally came out of you and you are asking me such silly question?"
• I came to a stop on hearing the wolf.
• Her eyes still glowing, swaying her head at my interrogation.
• "Or did the death of our unborn baby take away your senses as well, Brielle?"
• "Our unborn baby?" I uttered, staring at the beast before me in astonishment.
• Her grin came large, patiently waiting for my response.
• And that's when it hit me.
• "My wolf. You're my wolf?"
• "You can call me Bane," She chuckled with satisfaction.
• I couldn't believe this. I stared at this green eyed beast in shock, trying to understand how it was possible.
• "No, you can't be. I don't have a wolf," I doubted, refusing to believe this.
• That got her growling in anger.
• "So who are you going to believe? The words of those idiots that know nothing or your own eyes?" She questioned.
• I was quiet, looking at my body, and reminding myself where she had come out from.
• "Better believe it, Brielle," Bane said, gaining my attention once more.
• "You have always had a wolf."
• "Always?" I picked that word, wondering what she meant by that.
• That's when Bane revealed to me that she has been inside of me for long, but I couldn't hear her.
• She has been keeping an eye on me for so long, but didn't know how to communicate with me, until today.
• "You finally decided to make your own decision without anyone telling you to do so, and that connected us." She carefully laid on the ground, crossing her paws.
• And I understood what she meant.
• Argon's plan to divorce me after all the sacrifices I made, drove me to the point of choosing to leave him for good.
• That same fire was what connected my wolf and I.
• Now accepting the reality, I went on to ask about Bane's origin.
• She was nothing like any other wolf I've seen.
• You either see red, gold, blue or even yellow. But she's the first wolf I'll meet with green eyes.
• With delight, Bane revealed our origin.
• She called me an IVY, a rare lineage of wolves said to be extinct a long time ago.
• Ivy wolves are triggered by an iota of rage and the wolf bearer's will fire. That's how Bane was able to reach me after all these while.
• "You kept allowing that fool to use you like his toy. After all the pains and our baby's death, you want to accept his divorce and leave?" She scoffed at me, rising to her feet.
• "There's a reason why we are called the Ivys, Brielle. We don't give a damn about who you are or where you're from. Our middle name is Poison. When you hurt us, we exact our revenge and make you suffer."
• Her eyes lightened with delight, sending chills into my body.
• "What's it going to be then? Do you want to leave Argon to enjoy his life while you wallow in pain? Or you show him the real power of an Ivy? " She asked, giving me two choices.
• I didn't know what to choose. I was still overwhelmed by this sudden revelation, that I couldn't think straight.
• "I don't know," I said, lifting my gaze at Bane.
• But she was gone.
• My twenty four hours was over.
• Argon and Estelle came knocking on my door, demanding I open for them.
• I was in bed, lost in my thoughts, when they came knocking.
• I opened the door and was pushed aside by Estelle, who cares walked into my room in her latest designer dress, demanding for the divorce papers.
• "I hope you have signed it? My lawyer will be here soon, " Argon asked, lingering his eyes around my room.
• I didn't give him an answer but just walked over to where I kept the papers. I took it out and brought it before Argon.
• He immediately dragged it from my hand and opened it.
• "What is this? " He questioned in anger, turning the pages to my face.
• "Why haven't you signed the papers? What are you still waiting for?!" He yelled, tossing the papers at me.
• Estelle came close, suggesting he throws me out of his home, if I won't do as I was told.
• "She still thinks she's the Luna of this mansion. Just kick her out."
• When I heard Estelle, I responded with my head bowed, "That's not the reason. I couldn't bring myself to sign the papers after the promise I made to your father, the late Alpha."
• I went on to tell Argon about the promise, making a request at once.
• "Please, give me three month to complete his last wish. Once I've helped you and your future bride to get married, I'll leave for good," I requested, lifting my head to look at Argon.
• He stared at me with his brow lifted in confusion, while Estelle laughed out.
• "A dying wish? You must be mad if you think we'll..."
• "Alright then," Argon accepted, shocking Estelle.
• "I'll allow you to stay for three months. When you're ready to leave, you will sign these papers and get out. Did I make myself clear?"
• "Yes, Alpha," I responded, bowing at him.
• Argon's decision got Estelle mad. She immediately protested against it, telling him to reject it.
• But Argon refused.
• "It was my father's last wish. It's her duty to make me happy. In fact, it would be more exciting when everyone sees her handing you your rightful position," Argon said, cheering Estelle's mood.
• She happily agreed to the decision, glaring at me.
• "Besides, she's a weakling. I bet she won't last a month, " Argon mocked me, leaving the room with Estelle.
• I lifted my eyes, watching them leave.
• That's when I heard Bane's voice.
• "You've chosen wisely, Brielle. Very good."
