Zeta's POV"Ouch!" I yelled when Jenny was massaging my body with a warm washcloth.I was aching all over from the pain inflicted on me last night. I couldn't walk properly. The servants watched as I was pummeled by three wicked women."Ma'am, I don't like seeing you like this." She said that, and I shook my head."Me too." I replied, yelping again, as she rubbed a soothing balm all over my body.The problem began when Damien finally served her divorce papers. She was very mad at me. Like I was the cause."I think you should report. It's getting out of hand." She said that, and I nodded.Last week I had to use foundation to conceal my black eye on my way to work.Last week, I also had food poisoning, no doubt due to their handiwork. I couldn't go to work. They made me miss work twice, which was bad for a new staff."I should. I don't want them to hurt my family." I confessed. "What do you mean? Alpha Damien will protect you from harm. Just tell him." She said."Okay, just go easy on
Zeta's POV.We boarded his private jet the next morning. Touchdown was at 12 p.m., and I was so excited to see a large expanse of land that I couldn't sleep.We were driven to a cabin. The weather wasn't cold. Jen assisted me in carrying the boxes into the cabin, where we were going to be staying.She and Adrien would be staying in one room, while Damien and I would be occupying separate rooms.We retired for a while before a housekeeper came in to make some food for us.Damien decided that we should visit the restaurant beside us since it was a warm Saturday."What would you like to have?" A waiter inquired."Any drink, non-alcoholic preferably.""Get me your finest whiskey." Damien and I chorused."Is there anything else you would like to have?" He asked"No." We chorused again, and we laughed. The patrons looked at us funny.I'm very sure. It was obvious that we weren't locals."Here you go, sir, and ma'am." He said."Are you ready to ride a horse?" He asked me."Yes," I replied, a
Chapter 11ConfrontationBelinda's POV"These are the divorce papers," Damien told me."Really, Damien?" I asked."Yes." "After standing by you, you decide to throw me to the curb for that, that tramp?""Don't speak about her that way!" He hollered. This was one of the rare times I saw him get very angry. Before Zeta's arrival, he would never have spoken to me in that manner."The earlier you come to terms with it, the better." He replied."I will never accept it." I said, "Then you leave me no choice but to send you out of the house." He said it, and I couldn't believe my ears. He was really serious about this issue."This is unacceptable; what happened to us being together forever? First you got multiple women pregnant at the same time, and now you want to leave me with nothing? You want to make me a laughing stock in the pack?" I said.If anyone had told me that a day like this would come, I would have laughed them to scorn."You are causing strife among the wives. You treat her
Damien's POV"What do you mean it's with Belinda?" I inquired."She borrowed it, but she'll soon return it." She said."Why did she borrow it?""Her phone is faulty, so she borrowed mine." She replied. I knew that she was lying; the question was, why?"I'll leave now." Jen said she stood for a minute as if she wanted to say something but decided against it.I made a mental note to call her later since Zeta had chosen not to speak the truth."Why weren't you at work today?" I asked, and she shrugged."I felt a bit feverish in the morning." She said."We are going to see a doctor first thing."tomorrow morning." I declared, and she whipped around to face me, holding the sheets tightly around her bosom."It's not necessary; I'm fine." She waved it off."Why don't you want to take care of yourself? I don't want to lose you.""You won't." She reassured me, rubbing my hands gently.******"Let me have your phone." I ordered Belinda. She looked like a deer caught in the headlights, and that
Zeta's POVWe spent a long time auditing and taking stock, as well as balancing the accounts of the pack.I was finally happy to put my knowledge to work since I was less busy. He wasn't able to travel the next day because of the weather.We spent time together; we took pictures together, which he posted, and this angered the minions.I was coming from the office when I saw Belinda's figure in front of my room. I didn't hear what she was telling Jen, but I knew it was something horrible."What is going on here?" I asked when I reached the room."Ask your whore for a maid. She spat."Don't call her that." I retorted, and she turned to give me a leveling stare."Like mistress, like maid." She said that and walked away.Jen was vibrating seriously when I entered the room."What happened, Jen?" I questioned."She saw me coming from the alpha's room, and she rushed to that conclusion." She explained, and it didn't make sense to me."How does coming out of his room equal promiscuity?" I inq
Chapter 15 The Acceptance Zeta's POVI woke up as early as five a.m. to make sure that I left the house before my cows woke up.I expelled my breast milk into his flask and packed a day's worth of food for my travel.Jen and I had planned that she would be the one to break the news to them that I wasn't in the country.I sneaked downstairs by 6 a.m., but I was shocked to see Belinda watching TV in the living room.What happened to her room? I thought. What am I going to do? It was too early for confrontation.I returned upstairs and called Jen."Turn your bag downstairs through the window and come out a few minutes later." Maids were to take up the throne before the royals did.I changed my gown into ordinary jeans and a faded t-shirt and made my way downstairs."Where are you heading to this early?" Behind asked me, and I froze."I want to jog down the street," I said, and she looked at me skeptically."Since when?" she asked, and I didn't cower beneath her gaze."I want to keep f
Zeta's POV"Where are you coming from?" Belinda's question caused my joy to be deflated like a tire.I wasn't expecting all of them to be present when I arrived. He told me that only Belinda was around. I went from cloud nine to zero immediately.Dealing with all of them at the same time was a lot of work."I went out." I replied meekly, like a lamb among wolves." Really?" Alicia sneered. "What kind of mother leaves her suckling child and wanders off to see a man?" Belinda asked."A bad mother." Tricia reolied. I didn't bother to correct their opinions because I was tired from the trip and wanted to sleep."A cat got your tongue?" Belinda mocked me, and I still didn't reply."I know you are here because of the money, but you also have to take care of him." She said that, and I nodded solemnly. Anything not to make them angry."He cried a lot last night, looking for his mother, but she was painting the town red with the Alpha." Belinda rattled on and on about what should have been th
Damien's POV "Where is she?" I roared immediately as I entered the hospital. I took the next flight immediately after hearing that she had fainted."Alpha, please calm down." Doctor Fidelis said, and I leveled a glare at him. He wasn't the one with a palpitating heart." She is in the female ward. She is resting a bit." He said."Lead the way." I growled. He moved immediately, with two nurses in tow.She looked pale and tired. Her frame was slimmer. My heart clenched at seeing her on the bed, so weak."What is wrong with her?" I turned to the doctor."Her blood pressure is unusually high. She seems like she is undergoing stress, and judging from her BMI, it shows that she has not been eating well. Her body needed to shut down."That was ridiculous, because she always said she was great whenever we spoke on the phone."I advise that she rest a while. Get her mind off things as she tries to recuperate." He said. "Thank you." I said as he checked some other things and walked away.****
