OLIVIA I didn't stay after asking that question to Marcus, I know that he doesn't know the answer to that question as well. I might be hurt by everything that is happening but I know he is hurting as well. He doesn't show it but he is a shadow of the man I married. I have my doubts some days, especially when he is enjoying himself too much with that woman. I pour myself a glass of warm milk trying to get myself to sleep. Just when i lift the glass to take a sip, a knock comes on the door. I glance at the wall clock and it's after ten. Who could it be at this time? The person knocked again. "Who is it?" I asked moving away from the door. If it was Ethan, he would have called first and he has a key.I moved back some more worried to death. "Olivia, open the door." I stop moving and frown. That sounded like my father, what could he be doing here at this time of the night? "Olivia! Open the door." I rush to the door and open. Indeed, it is him with Nick by his side. "What are you two d

MARCUSI should have never suggested we have a baby, it is all my fault that this is happening now. If I didn't suggested it, my wife wouldn't be suffering, she, Samuel and I would be happy now. Going to the park together, trips, movies, dinners. Doing everything a happy couple should be doing. But I got greedy, I wasn't conted with what I had and I wanted more. Why, why did i want more, why couldn't I be content with things the way they were? Was it because Samuel is not my biological son? No that's not it. It was because I was afraid I would lose him to his real father when the truth came out.I wanted to have a child of my own so that it wouldn't hurt much when he left. Basically, I wanted a consolation prize which I was not meant to have. Now I am stuck with that disgusting woman and hurting my wife. As if she has not been hurt enough, as if the pain Nick caused her wasn't enough. Why the fuck aren't humans ever content? Men to be specific. We always want more.More money, more s

NICKI sat on that jet with the image of Olivia's sunken face engraved in my mind. I wanted to talk to her, find out if she was alright but as soon as the pitch was over, she disappeared. I thought of going over to her house to find out what was going on. Use the excuse that she invited me over not so long ago. But I held back, if she still wanted to talk to me, then she would have done so at the hotel after the pitch. But instead she left, that meant she was not ready to talk yet. But the image of her walking around looking like the dead hurt me. What could have happened to her? It's only been two months since I last saw her and she was happy. "Sir, we are here." I looked out and saw that we were outside Luke's office. Did he know what was happening with his daughter? I doubt it, he would have been there for her if he knew. A sigh left me. Owen opened the door for me and I got out. When I got to his office, i knocked once and let myself in. "I knew it could only be you who would h

OLIVIAI have tried, the Lord knows, I have tried. I have tried to keep the promise i made to my husband for the sake of our child. I have tried to be brave, to endure but it's too difficult. Each day I see less and less of my husband. Each day i lose a part of me, a part of my marriage, my happiness. I feel like I was never meant to be happy in this world. At least not with someone by myside, maybe my destiny is to remain alone, rasing my kids and working to make a life for them. One that will be way better than the one I had. Maybe I should just give up on love and focus on those who need me the most. My kids.I have desperately tried to love, first it was Nick, I gave him my all and he betrayed me. Now Marcus, the man is doing the most for the woman who came into my home as a nobody, just carrier for my child but now seems to own my home. My house no longer feels like home and I find myself not wanting to go back at the end of the day.I used to look forward to going home but now

OLIVIAMy blood boiled, “Excuse me, what did you just say?” Lupita was right, the woman did think she was the madame of the house. Where the hell did, she get the audacity to say something like that to me and in my own house. Treating my son like that in his home, she was the guest, and she seemed to forget that.“I asked what are you going to do if I call him a brat?” she repeated herself and I closed the distance between us. Marcus was quick to pull me aside. “Let us all calm down here,” he turned to Jennifer. “I know you are emotional, and little thing might upset you, but Samuel is a child. You don’t treat him like that.”She laughed as if she was a crazy woman. “Then what am I carrying Marcus? Is it not your child that I am carrying and trying to protect? Why would you even reprimand me and not this boy for being so careless? I could have been holding hot tea and it would have spil

OLIVIAI trusted my husband, besides our recent disagreements about Jennifer. I felt like there was something else going on. I didn’t want to think he was cheating on me with her, he was not that kind of man. Well, I also thought Nick was not that kind of man.He said he never cheated as well, that nothing ever happened between him and Sandra. But in my opinion, what he did with her was far worse than cheating. He neglected me, trusted her over me and even sent me to jail. I had a criminal record under my name because of him.Then there was my current husband, he looked hurt when he said he would do better, when he said he thought he was better than only to find out that they were the same. Then he told me to always remember that I was his, that he loved me.That alone told me that something was going on with him, something that might make me doubt his love for me. I wished I knew what it was, I wished he would talk to me and tell m

EPILOGUE SARA’S POV The night was dark, and the fairy lights around made it look amazing. Today were had what humans call the red moon, the vampires called it the Blood Moon and we werewolves called it Lunar eclipse. I sat in the nursery looking out the window watching as my pack members walked u

KANE’S POV The dinner only served as a reminder for me why we don’t like vampires. We were having a nice meal while they were busy drinking blood they did not know came from. Yes, I got the blood, but they did not know which human it came from, they were just happy to drink it. Well, maybe I was b

SARA’S POV A month has passed since Kane, and I fixed things and a week since Mike and Dimitri moved out. They moved into the house I used to live in with Lilly when we left the pack that time. They had not found a place they liked yet and time was running out. I did not want them to stay longer t

SARA’S POV When I left Kane’s office, I went to find my brother, I was feeling lighter and more at peace now that Kane and I fixed things. Now I realized that it doesn’t matter how long you have known someone, but you still need to pay attention to the next person. Knowing each other for long doe

SARA’S POV I really did mess up. I did many things wrong, and Kane was right for being angry. I just didn’t know he was this angry until now. Mike did not help the situation when he punched Kane. Also, I should have introduced him to Kane sooner, when I came back home from the hospital. I just tho

KANE’S POV “Is this payback?” she gave me a confused look. “I have done you wrong many times and what I want to know if this is payback for what I did to you?” she quickly shook her head, but I continued before she could finish. “I know that you might not think so, but people turn to punish those

AEGENThe guard went looking for Ianna’s phone in all the places she went to toady, but he could not find it. I tried calling it again, but it kept ringing with no answer. I didn’t think much of it when I asked my head of security to track it.But I started to worry when she told me that she tracked it to the woods close to our spot. Our spot was between the palace and the deep-water pack. There were only three people who knew about that spot and one of them was dead.Me, Ianna, and my dead sister. Also, I knew that Ianna would not have gone to that spot without me. We promised we would find time to go there together. Plus, the guard said she never left the palace grounds since I left.That only meant one thing, that her phone was stolen, and the culprit was someone who worked in the palace. I wouldn’t have cared about finding the phone if it wasn’t for the serial killer we had in our hands.I could not take any chances and there were no coincidences with these kinds of things. So, I

IannaI studied until noon then I went and got lunch for myself. I was starting to feel dizzy, and I knew it was because I didn’t eat breakfast. Aegen would have been angry with me if he knew I didn’t eat breakfast.He would have accused me of starving his child. Not knowing that I didn’t have appetite this morning. After eating, I felt sleepy, and I decided to go and take a nap for a while before going back to my studies.The week has ended and there were still no new leads on the serial killer. Aegen was getting frustrated by all of it. I could hear it in his voice very time we spoke on the phone. But there was nothing either of us could do about it.This person has to be stopped. One way or the other he has to be found. I told my guard I was going to take a nap for a while and that he should not let anyone disturb me. I missed having a friend in the palace.Now that Aegen was not here, I didn’t have anyone to talk to. It was lonely. The omega bless their souls try to talk to me and

AEGENLeaving the palace was difficult, not it was not but leaving Ianna was. Especially now, knowing that she might be in danger. We didn’t know who this was, we didn’t know where he was. He could be at the palace for all we knew and yet. I was leaving her behind.My heart was not at ease, but I had to go. She wanted me to be the best warrior in the kingdom and not her mate and father of her unborn child. She trusted me to get this person and put this matter to rest.It has been a week since I left her, and three more people have been killed so far. A she-wolf from the silver moon pack and a close guard to the young alpha of the deep-water pack. Jeyden. He too was killed the same way as the others.Another was the young alpha from the Golden Moon pack and this one was a friend of Jeyden. Now I believed that the person who was doing all the killings was after Jeyden, but we still didn’t know why.We were now back at the Deep-Water pack to question the kid. I want thinking this person

IANNAI sat there listening to Damon explain about this serial killer and I didn’t know what to do. Aegen and I have just taken over as leaders of the kingdom and yet the very first challenge we had on our hands had nothing to do with finances.Resolving pack disputes, no, our problem was bigger than anyone else’s. we had a serial killer in our hands, and we had no idea what to do or how to stop the person. I hear Damon saying they are trying to figure out what this person wanted, and I couldn’t care less about that.I wanted the person can be found. The only way to know what the person wanted was to find them and question them. “Tell me Damon, since you and my father have discovered what this person’s Amo is, have you not discovered what he wants already?”I mean, his actions and the scorpion should give them an idea what he wants. “It’s not that simple with this person. The Amo is the same, but that doesn’t give us anything at all. Just some killings done by the same person nothing

AEGENI watched from the window as my mother and Ianna’s father got into the car and left. She has been trying to talk to me since the coronation, but I would not hear any of it. She did something wrong and she needed to know that and learn.This is how Christina started her evil ways and because I forgave her when she did that. She continued to a point that she ended up almost killing my mate. Mother needs to know that we don’t do things like that I was not going to allow her to start now.What she did was vindictive for no reason because Ianna’s father chose her. Why did she have to go the extra mile rubbing it. That is one thing I will never understand.Ianna came and stood behind me. “You should have said goodbye to her.” I scoffed. “She is not dying but leaving the kingdom.” She came and stood in front of me. “You are going to miss her.”I took her into my arms inhaling her scent. “Of course. I will miss her; she is my mother after all and I love her. But, not enough to encourage

MICHAELIt was so good to see how well she was received by the kingdom. I knew they would be like that as soon as they knew who she really was. She too looked happy, I didn’t know if it was because of the crown or the pregnancy. But it didn’t matter.What mattered was that she was happy. But I wouldn’t say the same about Aegen, he looked bothered before going to be crowned. I asked his mother to go and talk to him. I didn’t want him taking the crown if he didn’t want to.My daughter deserved more than that, though I didn’t think being with her was the problem. I was sure it had something to do with his family. That was why I asked his mother to talk to him.“Penny for your thoughts?” I snapped out of it. “I was just thinking about Aegen and what could be bothering him on a day like this. Doesn’t he want the child?” I asked his mother. I didn’t know what to think and I didn’t want to leave Ianna if things were not right with them.“No, it’s not that, he is looking forward to being a fa

ZIONWe stood there glaring at each other then she turned and walked away. I released a breath I didn’t know I was holding. “You are letting her go, just like that? wow!” I didn’t know when Brook got there or how much she heard. But when I turned to look at her and explain. She was already closing the door to her car.I got into mine then sped to the gate and blocked her way. I couldn’t let her go without explaining myself. I have already disappointed her enough and I couldn’t afford to disappoint her again. She hasn’t even officially told me about her pregnancy yet and I didn’t want to miss the chance to be there for her.She got out of the car looking pissed, I regretted making her angry, but I was not about to let her go without explaining to her what happened. I needed her to hear me out and understand. I didn’t want her to have the wrong idea about that woman and I. If I let her leave right now, then that was exactly what was going to happened.“Move out of my way Zion.” She was

ZIONI have been working like a dog the past week. I asked to be released from the hospital because I couldn’t do some of the things while laying on the hospital bed. I needed to go to the Blood Moon pack so the builders could come and assess the situation before sending be quotes for everything.When I got to the Blood Moon pack, or shall I say, what used to be my home. My heart broke. The damage was greater than I anticipated. I thought only a few houses, the packhouse and hospital burnt. But I was wrong, the fire had no mercy, it destroyed almost everything. My home was now nothing, but ruins and I did that.Sitting there waiting for those people I tried to think of a reason why I was so blinded and stupid. Aiden was never blind when it came to her, he saw her for who she really was and kept his distance. I, on the other hand, thought he was being cruel, and I felt sorry for her.I don’t know when I started developing feelings for her and wanting to protect her. I got injured and a

ZIONIt broke my heart that my brother didn’t even come into my ward to see me. I know I have wronged him, in so many ways and I regretted everything I did to him. I wanted to apologize to him, I wanted to tell him that I was wrong. But I guess he was so angry that he didn’t even want to talk to me. it hurt.Not more than my mate cringing and standing at a distant from me as if I was a monster. I wanted to talk to her too. To tell her that I heard what she said, I wanted to confirm that she was pregnant, but she too didn’t come into my ward after the doctor removed the tubes.My heart broke, I have been a fool who thought he was in love and look where that got me. I almost died protecting her and where was she now? Thinking about it made me angry, not at anyone but myself. I let this happen to me all in the name of love.The door opened and I opened my eyes thinking it was Brook. Only to find the doctor. “I am sorry to wake you alpha, I am only here to check on you.” I just nodded and

BROOKI have been by his side for over a week now. Talking to him and telling him about my pregnancy and how I didn’t want him to die. I was losing hope of him ever waking up and it hurt to think about my child not meeting him. He has done so many hurtful things to me, but my child deserved to know him.He is a good man who followed his heart. How can I blame him for that? it hurt, yes, but how can I fault him when he was doing what I would have done myself if I was in his shoes? I understood that but it didn’t mean I was not hurt.I was and deeply. He is my mate, and he was supposed to love me and only me. forsaking all others and focusing on me alone. That is the point of having a mate, but mine didn’t. he fell in love with his brother’s mate. What was that? it brought shame to me and made me feel like I am not enough.That thought alone scared me. I was talking to him about going to my father’s pack for a while, that I needed a break when his eyelashes flattered, and he opened his

AIDENHe looked at me with so much hatred, if he had his way, I would be dead by now. But he knew that he didn’t stand a chance, not alone at least. He glared at me intensely and I looked at him with a smirk on my face. He was nothing to me and I am going to show him and his buddies not to mess with this alpha.He saw I was not budging, and my warriors were about to disappear. “Wait! Call them back, I will call everyone and tell them to come here like you want.” I smiled, good boy. “You can call them, but I will not stop them from bringing your sister. Let’s just say she is my insurance policy in case you decide to double cross me.”The hatred in his eyes was too much, I am sure he was wishing I was dead. “Don’t lay a finger on her, even after you kill me. Promise me that.” I laughed. The boy still thinks he has a say on what I do and don’t do. He doesn’t tell me what to do in my own pack.“You are in no position to ask me for anything. But, if you behave, I will think about it. She i

AIDENThere is nothing I hate more than being looked down upon. I am not weak like my father was and people looking down on me and underestimating me just drives me insane. That woman had the audacity to send someone into my pack because she thought I was not going to be here.Why does it matter if I am here or not? My pack should not be a place where anyone can just come into. The mention of Moon pack should strike fear into people’s hearts. They should think twice about coming here for any reason. But she dared send someone here and he agreed because of the amount of money he was paid?That is a joke, I am a joke. No amount of money should influence anyone to dare try anything in this pack, but it did with that man, that means they don’t fear me enough. “Where is that man?” I sent a mind link to my warriors now feeling more pissed than before. Thinking about it now, it made me angry.“He is still here, alpha. But we are sending him out now.”“Don’t send him out, bring him to me.” he
