Chapter 05 No Longer Endure It
She snorted quietly and leaned in to whisper in Ann’s ear.
“No wonder Brad couldn’t wait to be inside me, just look at the state of you.” She sneered.
Ann clenched her fingers into fists as she fought desperately to stop Maeve fromunching at Ada and
escting this further.
‘Don’t just stand there and take this, the little b*tch needs to know her ce. Let me teach her a lesson
she won’t forget.’ Maeve snarled angrily.
‘Maeve, we can’t, she doesn’t have a wolf yet. You know thews, it wouldn’t be a fair fight, and the
punishment..’ ‘Screw the punishment, Ann, let me just bite her a little bit, maybe remove one of her
limbs. At least then she’ll have fewer appendages to wrap around other people’s mates.” She snapped
viciously as she tried to surge forwards.
Ann closed her eyes tightly, clenched her jaw, and fought back against her wolf as Ada sniggered.
“A, what’s wrong? Is your little wolf angry?”
It didn’t take long for Ann to regain control, her wolf slinking off to slump in a corner and growl
threateningly. Before long, the rage of her wolf had subsided and silence descended. Ann opened her
eyes to re icily at her sister.
“What do you think, Ada? You slept with her soul mate, the one who was intended as our perfect
match! I know you hate me, but it was unnecessary.” Ann finally replied, her face calm andposed.
Ada frowned before her eyes darkened and her face twisted into an ugly mask of spiteful anger.
“Unnecessary? I think it was very much needed actually. If only to prove that I will always be better than
you. You swan around here thinking that you’re little miss perfect. Mark my words Ann, I’ll make sure
that you are nothing and have nothing by the time I’m finished. I’m sick of living in your shadow.” She
hissed furiously.
“Ann! What is the meaning of this?! Why were you out sote?!” A slimy, sickly sweet voice called out.

Narcissa, Ann’s stepmother emerged from the drawing room, with Ann’s father close behind.
Ann reluctantly tore her gaze away from her stepsister and focused her attention on Narcissa. The two
stared at each other for a while as Ada sauntered to her mother’s side and tilted her head arrogantly as
she turned to face Ann once again.
“I needed to clear my head.” Ann finally answered tly, feeling like an exhibition on disy with
everyone’s attention on her.
“Oh but your dress came! How lovely!” Narcissa simpered with a poisonous smile on her face. “I’m
surprised you didn’t hurry down to show your parents before you disappeared out into the night doing
goodness knows what.” She continued flippantly, her eyes full of malice.
Before Ann could stop herself she found herself snorting, loudly.
“Parents? I think you’re mistaken… don’t you mean parent? My mother died a long time ago and you
are not fit to share that honor with her memory.” Anne answered casually.
Narcissa gasped and covered her mouth as she turned to face Ann’s father with a horrified and hurt
expression. “You ungrateful little cow! How can you speak to your stepmother this way?!” Anne’s father
blustered.
“Because she’s the kind of stepmother that you read about in fairy tales. She’s not deserving of a ce
here.” Ann answered simply.
She was tired of this f0rced masquerade as a happy family. The family was supposed to be warm and
inviting with a sense offort and security, not cold and unfriendly with the necessity of having to
watch your back constantly with no support.
Her fathershed out at the wall next to him angrily as he began to advance toward Ann, growling a
warning.
Ada rushed across to him and took hold of his arm with a sly smirk in Ann’s direction as she feigned an
attempt to try to stop him.
“Dad! Please! Calm down! Don’t be angry! It’s fine, we’re used to all thements she throws at us.”
Ada whined. Ann red furiously at the trio as Narcissa joined her daughter in the pathetic act of caring
for family members. How could her father not see through this charade?!
As Narcissa rubbed soothing circles on her father’s back she focused her attention on Ann again.
“Please, Ann, you know your father’s health isn’t good. Let’s not trigger another episode with
unnecessary nastiness, hmm?” She pleaded in a sickly sweet voice. But Ann didn’t miss the smirk that
danced on her lips. “You should take a good look at your sister’s demeanor
Ann. You might actually learn how to conduct yourself properly!” Ann’s father snarled.
“Learn what?” Annughed in disbelief, “Learn how to seduce and sleep with another female’s mate?
Maybe. She seemed to have the talent for it when she was f*uc*king my mate in her room upstairs!”
Her words hung in the air before a ferocious roar escaped from her father.
“How dare you speak about your sister that way?! There is no way she would do such a despicable
thing!”
“Sister? Have you lost your mind, father?? My mother only gave birth to one child.” Ann sneered as she
swept her gaze disdainfully over Narcissa and Ada.
“You know something? There’s a popr saying, isn’t there? Now, what was it… Ah, yes! ‘The apple
doesn’t fall far from the tree’. It fits both Narcissa and Ada perfectly, don’t you think? Her mother
seduced my father and broke his mate’s heart, and now her daughter aims to do the same thing. Ironic
really, isn’t it?” Ann continued furiously, her face shrouded with contempt.
A cold silence descended in the hallway, her father, Narcissa, and Ada all frozen in shock at the words
she had uttered.
For years, Ann had remained silent and now that her life was about to change so drastically, there was
no need to keep up with the pretense anymore.
