Chapter 100
“You know quite well what I’m talking about,” Axel replied sternly.
Nathan’s eyes darted around the surroundings as if searching for prying cars.
“Let’s go to my office; we can have complete privacy there,” Nathan suggested. The atmosphere hung heavy with tension as the
two of them stood in the elevator, the air thick with unspoken accusations.”
“You looked into Jasmine?” Nathan inquired once they were in the privacy of his office.
“Yes,” Axel stated, his gaze unwavering. “You lied to Jasmine, several times,” Axel accused, his voice cutting through the room.
“You finished college years ago before her, but she actually thinks you met her in college,” Axel continued, unraveling the fabric
of Nathan’s deceit. Nathan’s composure wavered, his eyes betraying the weight of Axel’s revelations.
“You dug about me too?” Nathan asked, a defensive edge in his tone.
“That and also other things. What she told me and the facts about you don’t match up in any way,” Axel declared, exposing the
contradictions that surrounded Nathan.
“You’re taking advantage of her because she doesn’t recall some things!” Axel’s voice rose, a blend of anger and concern
echoing through the room.
In their short conversations during car rides, Axel had detected numerous discrepancies in Jasmine’s recollections. Whenever he
probed for more insight, she seemed lost, even experiencing sudden headaches. His attempts to research about and dig
information about Jasmine’s past had yielded little information, uncovering only details from the last eight years, as if she had
emerged into existence at that point.
“It’s more like she came out of nowhere,” Axel concluded. “Like she hadn’t been existing before that time” he added.
“Where is she from? You know things about her, and it’s clear you’ve been keeping her in the dark, feeding her lies.” Axel
declared.
“I wouldn’t actually try to harm her,” Nathan retorted fiercely. “I’m just keeping an eye on her,” he admitted, his words laced with a
sense of protectiveness. .
“Why aren’t there any records of Jasmine for over the past ten years or more now? It’s more like she never existed until eight
“I had nothing to do with that,” Nathan replied with a sigh, his response carrying an air of frustration at the mysterious gaps in
Jasmine’s history.
“Or the reason why she has no wolf.” Nathan added,
“What pack is she from?” Axel probed further, his attempts to find answers had taken him searching through neighbouring packs
to have a little knowledge of who she was, but all had come out futile.
“I don’t know,” came Nathan’s reply exasperated reply.
“What then do you know?” Axel asked, irritation evident in his tone.
“Jasmine’s linked to my wife’s death!” Nathan thundered, his words landing like a heavy blow, Axel halted, staring at the man
with a mix of shock and defense.
“What do you mean?” Axel probed, stepping forward defensively.
“Jasmine saw my wife last before she died, Nathan revealed, his tone faltering under the weight of the revelation.
“Explain,” Axel demanded, the urgency cutting through the air.

Nathan sighed, the burden of the past heavy on his shoulders. “We went on a trip one day, to an island off the coast, Nathan
began with a heavy breath.
“She took a stroll one morning, and that was it. She never came back. Jasmine was there at that time, she saw everything,”
Nathan confessed, his hands burying his face as he unraveled the haunting details of his wife’s mysterious demise.
Axel stood frozen at a spot listening to him
“What?” Axel asked, finally finding his voice.
Nathan sighed then continued.
“My wife met Jasmine. The night they met, there was an accident. No, someone had tried to kill them. They succeeded although
Jasmine came out badly injured, my wife and cub were gone,” Nathan answered, the words heavy with grief and pain.
“Jasmine was the only witness that day. When they found her, she was clutching my wife’s necklace in a death grip.” Nathan’s
voice quivered lightly.
“I needed to understand what was happening; there were no leads. The only person who knew something was unconscious for
months. When she woke up, she had no recollection of anything, nothing at all. The police also couldn’t be of much help. A
whole lot of things were left to boil over-no clues, no nothing! We couldn’t do much,” Nathan explained, his voice tinged with
frustration and sorrow.
His eyes had become misty, haunted by the unresolved pain of the past.
“You think if I wanted to harm her, I didn’t have several chances already?!” Nathan yelled, his frustration erupting in a torrent of
emotion.
“So, you’ve been around her since then?” Axel asked slowly, his gaze fixed on Nathan.
“Yes, she was just a child at that time. Eight years! I’ve waited eight years, but I don’t think she’ll ever remember,” Nathan
explained, the weight of time and unspoken truths hanging heavily in the air.
“Not with the lies you’ve given her, she won’t,” Axel stated bluntly.
“There’s more to it,” Nathan admitted, standing up with a solemn expression.
“I’m listening,” Axel muttered, his attention fully captured by the unfolding revelations.
“When they brought Jasmine to the hospital, she was badly bruised, covered in scars,” Nathan began, the gravity of his words
sinking in.
“Lines of scars around her back, they never healed. I doubt if they have even till now,” he continued, each word heavy with the
burden of untold pain.
“When she woke up, she was frightened and jumpy. She was no doubt traumatized by something. I watched her fidget and get
frightened at everything and everyone? Nathan revealed, painting a vivid picture of the lingering effects of a harrowing
past.
“It seemed she was being heavily abused. That way she never actually grew, she didn’t have a wolf. She woke up with no
memories, frightened of everyone and everything. What else was I to do?” Nathan questioned, the desperation in his voice
echoing the complexities of the situation.
“Fill in some lies while I waited around for her to remember something. For eight years,” Nathan said with a pained look, the
weight of time bearing down on him.
“Eight good years!” he exclaimed, his frustration palpable.
