Love Grows In The Dark by Eli Lowe (read books for money TXT) 📕

reason with him, but it seemed that he needed more clarification as he just could not let his guard down, not even for the slightest second even after I told him.

“What is going on, Summer. You need to tell me.” Kaith could not hold back from yelling at me, while Jacob chose to stay quiet, so that I could explain him everything.

“Well, this is Jacob. I rescued him from the confinement of uncle Benjamin.” Even though I had more to say, but I just could not continue as Kaith said once again, freaking the hell out of him.

“He...he was the one whom alpha Benjamin was keeping imprisoned for years inside somewhere in his office? You know what, Sam... I once saw alpha, coming out of the hidden door and he was all covered in blood. He was looking terrifying that night. Then you mean, it was Jacob whom alpha kept torturing for years? The one whom everyone was looking for?” Kaith's trembling voice did not fail to declare how panicked he was.

“Yes. You guessed right.” I replied in short as I knew that Kaith would have more to ask. And I did not assume wrong at all.

“Why? What did he do?” He asked once again, while trying to find the probable reasons for all this, in his mind.

“Well, he is the lost beta of the Blood Bay Pack. I mean the former beta of the pack. Does that information help you to find your reasons, Kaith? Can you figure out the possible link about which we had absolutely no idea, before?” I tried to help him, but it seemed that he might have guessed something else as he went absolutely quiet and kept looking at Jacob with wide eyes. Kaith did not bother to say more, and I knew that it was now my turn to ask.

“But, why and how he got into uncle Benjamin's hand years ago, is still a mystery, which I need to know as well. So, Jacob, could you tell us about that?” Just when I asked, I clearly saw how some kind of fear spread over his eyes, in no moment. His face turned pale.

But even though he took his time, and hesitated a bit, Jacob chose to tell us everything at last, but before that, he just asked us one question,

“First, you tell me, how far can you go to take your revenge?”

Summer's P.O.V

How far can I go?

Well, I had lost my mom and dad already and I was left to live a miserable life due to someone else's lies and unforgivable sin. The dreams that I had cherished once to become the rightful alpha of my own pack even though I was a girl, was snatched from me ever so cruelly a few years back and not only that but I was also accused as the reason for the sudden death of my dad and mom, the alpha and the luna of Lunar high pack.

No one...no one in this whole pack sees me as a victim as well rather, they had always hated me and that was why I had to stay away from everyone, except Kaith.

That night snatched away so many things from me wrongly, and that too without much of my realisation. I lost the peace of my mind, as I spent a whole lot of sleepless nights since then.

And you know what is the worst? I am even scared to love. I am afraid that if I dare to love someone dearly, he or she will also be taken away from me. Only, for this reason, I even ended up messing up the one and only relationship that I suppose to cherish forever. Even though I have a mate, I can not be on good terms with him, like any other mates. And now I am caught up with this innocent little one inside me, even when I know very well that my reckless life might bring dangers to him as well.

In fact, each and every single thing in my life is all in mess and I have left with nothing except fighting for my rights.

Do I have other choices to make, except taking revenge for my whole life that turned into nightmares since that night?

What am I supposed to do, when I see the murderer of my mom and dad living a great life just before my eyes, without worrying about whatever he did to get to this position by betraying his own people?

He did not just kill the alpha and luna of the Lunar High pack that night, he even killed me as a little girl along with them, leaving me no other choices than to grow up soon without the love and warmth that a child deserves.

And not just that, we were not the only victim who had to suffer due to his sin. Cause there were others as well, who was as unfortunate as I am.

So, there was only one answer to the question that Jacob had asked,

“Until the end. I have nothing to lose, cause he had already snatched away everything from me years ago. And now it was time to make him pay for what he did to all of us. But, I will never grant him an easy death, as he must suffer...even beyond anyone can ever imagine.” All the words came out of my mouth effortlessly, as if I was living in those very words. I meant each and every one of the words that I said. For this moment I could not think about anything else, except the fact that I must end what I have started but I will make sure to write my own happy ending with the misery of someone else who once escaped from the justice of fate, but not now, not anymore.

“Good then.”
