* Adrianna's POV*

I felt terrible. I can't believe I kissed Vince. The way his lips felt against mine was heavenly. The kiss was gentle but I could feel some passion in it too. What truly scared me was the fact that I enjoyed the kiss. I didn't want to pull away and I wondered what it would be like to kiss him again.

I could tell that kiss didn't mean anything to either of us. I think his judgment became clouded because of his recent heartbreak with Carla. I was the first to come to my senses though and I immediately regretted kissing him back.

All that kept running through my head was that I was in love with Weston. Both me and North were so confused. So in my confusion, I ran away from Vince and ran all the way to Weston's house ( which wasn't far away.)

His house was a large townhouse where the houses of the other pack members and their mates were. Weston often made me dinner there and sometimes I would spend the night but he and I would only cuddle. Tonight I just wanted to be with him. That kiss with Vince meant nothing to either of us.

I knocked on Weston's door and when he opened it, immediately I crashed my lips onto his. At first, I caught him off guard and he stood frozen for a little bit but then he kissed me back. He pulled away and he, of course, knew something was wrong.

The way his eyes looked was so sweet and that made me feel even worse. He hugged me and he gently said, " What's wrong?" I couldn't help but break down then. The guilt was too much for me to handle.

" We need to talk, " I whispered through the tears. He looked worried but he led me to his living room and hugged me. He kissed my head, " Talk to me."

I couldn't bring myself to look at him, " You know how Vince and I are soulmates chosen by Selene?" He kissed my shoulder and nodded.

I continued, " Well when we're soulmates, there, of course, is that natural attraction that we have to have because Selene is trying to bring us together even though that isn't what we want. Well, yesterday I found out that his girlfriend that he loves very much found her soulmate and has been cheating on him for a while now. I went to comfort him and..." I couldn't finish my sentence because I was so upset and I just broke down again but sweet Weston just kept rubbing my back and telling me it was going to be okay.

" I didn't mean too, " I covered my face, " But he kissed me and I kissed him back. I didn't mean to, I swear and I love you I promise."

He then removed his hand from my back and I looked over at him still crying. I thought he was going to scream, throw things, or even ask me to leave. Instead, he gently brought his hand up to my cheek and wiped away a few of the tears rolling down my cheek.

" I'm not mad at you, babe. It's totally expected to feel that attraction with him but I know that you love me and that you would never cheat on me. As soon as this soulmate thing is figured out, you and I will be together. The world will be ours. No matter what, you and I will be together in the end, that I can promise you."

I hugged him but I was so frustrated with everything going on. I can't stand the fact that no matter how in love with Weston I am. I want to marry him one day and I want to be with him forever. However, there is only one person that gets in the way of my happiness with him and that's Vince. He and I are naturally like magnets, we have this natural attraction to each other because of our pairing.

" Hey, what's wrong?" He tucked a piece of my hair behind my ear. I shook my head and told him it was nothing. He knew me better than that though, " No, don't become guarded, tell me."

I ran my fingers through my hair and groaned in frustration, " I just want to forget this ever happened. This is all making me so angry and frustrated. I want to go back to that day when Carla asked me to go to her wedding. Vince would have been happily married and I know for a fact you and I would have found each other and we could have been happy. Now everything is just a mess and no one is getting what they wanted."

" I haven't heard of any form of time travel yet but I do have this one thing that my father gave me. It's sort of this potion that makes you forget bad things that have happened to you. All you have to do is think about any memory of Vince and he will be erased from your mind completely. This way, you can go on with your life with me and he can meet some other girl who will love him with all of her heart. Everybody wins."

His words took me by surprise I know right now I am frustrated with Vince but that does not mean that I want to forget all about him. He may not be my lover but he is my friend. My best friend nowadays. I started thinking about it more though. Vince could have a chance at falling in love with some beautiful, sweet girl who could love him way more than Carla.

" Can you guarantee that if I take this that everyone will be happy?" I asked him with slight hesitation. He seemed to be happy that I was considering this and I don't know why.

" I promise you, that you and everyone else will be happy. Vince will find someone else and you and I will be together always." I closed my eyes then and nodded. All I care about right now is that Vince finds someone who deserves him and all his sweet qualities.

Weston got up and he then went into the other room. All that was running through my head though was " you're doing this for Vince, you're doing this for Vince." When he came back, he had this thick drink that looked like wine.

He handed me the drink, " Now, all you have to is think about Vince will you drink this and you'll forget all about him. I promise."

I took the glass from his hands and before I took a sip I started thinking about the last 7.5 months with Vince. I thought about every wonderful thing he's ever done for me. From making me feel like a queen in his house to setting me up with Weston. He was so good to me and now I would have to forget all about him. As I brought the cup to my lips, I started crying. I didn't want to forget Vince. I didn't want to forget him, I want to be his friend but I had no choice if he was going to be happy and me too.

I started drinking the beverage and it tasted sour but it had a sweet aftertaste. Just after that little bit of the drink, I started to feel weird. The room started to spin and I felt like I couldn't breathe. The drink soon fell out of my hand and I collapsed on the ground, " What...What... Did you do... To me?"

Weston lifted my head up, " Don't worry, this is supposed to happen. I have to say though, you are a stupid girl. You see, inside every wolf, there is a dark side that gives them power. The more darkness you have, the more powerful you are. I knew when I first met you, you had so much darkness that it could annihilate every wolf in the world. With all that power, I knew you had to be desperate for love so I decided the only way to get to you, I would have to pretend to be in love with you at least for a while. When you drank this condition though, you became mine and now you will have to do everything I say. With you, I am going to kill every wolf that exists today and take over the world. No one can stand in my way now."

I knew he kept a gun in his desk so I started crawling to the desk to get the gun and all I could hear is his sinister laughing, mocking me as I crawled to the drawer. Before I could grab the gun though, I felt this powerful energy surge through my body. The next thing I knew, my eyes were a deep garnet red and I was not in control of anything I did anymore.

I stood up and walked over to Weston and gave him an evil smirk, " What can I do for you?" He smoothed my hair then whispered in my ear, " First, I want you to kill Alpha Vincent." I smirked again and nodded and the next thing I knew, I was out the door on my way to Vince's.
