*****Alpha Theo's POV***“Dad!”I rushed into my father's room in a panic and with a heavy heart. “Theo, what's wrong? Why do you look this troubled?”“Dad, you've got to help me. I cannot lose, Tihana. I just cannot lose my Luna.”“Simmer down and tell me what's going on?”“She knows the truth.”My dad went wide in shock and quickly walked closer to me. “Which of the truth are we talking about?”I swallowed hard while trying to control how fast I was breathing. “She knows I'm not the one with her, during the honeymoon.”to “What?!”“She knows it was Adam and not me, dad.”“This is bad. How the hell did she find out? Was it the maids?”“I think it might be the maids. But then, I strictly asked them not to say this out to anyone, not even her?"“Since when did the maids in the pack become this disobedient and lousy?” My dad got really me and at this very moment, and I don't blame him for being this way. I was just as mad as he was. “You know what, son? I think you should take all
*****Julia's POV***The moment I dropped the call, my heart began to pound heavily in my chest. I never expected that he would really call for me. It was faster than I had expected. Who would have thought that this plan of mine would surely work this way?Alpha Theo wanted us to meet, and I think this is just the perfect chance to carry out my actions. I just cannot wait in a situation like this. I must make the most out of it. ~I walked into the bar where Theo and I were supposed to meet. And just as I arrived, I saw him waiting for me, while tapping his foot anxiously. I paused at the entrance and smiled. Things are only going to become even more interesting from now on. I walked over to where he sat waiting for me. “Hello, Alpha Theo, it's nice to see you here.”“Miss Julia, I'm glad you finally came,” Theo said with a slight smile spreading across his face. “I'm so sorry that I took too long before getting here.”“It's okay, you have nothing to apologize for. After all, I was
****Tihana's POV***I could hardly sleep at the moment. I kept wondering if I overreacted to the whole situation. Maybe I had handled the issue poorly. No matter what, he's still my mate. Though I still don't understand why he had to lie to me but if he had a better explanation for his reasons as to why he kept me in the dark, I'll understand. For some reason, I feel like I should go to him and try to hear him out. At least, if I should be mad at him, I should have a good reason to. I looked at the time on the wall, which was 10: PM already. I can't believe that I chased him away, and he did stay away from me because I told him to. Perhaps I should go to him and bring him back. I really do not want to stay mad at my mate because I hate to be away from him. This was the first time I had been so mad at him and told him to leave. Making up my mind, I opened the door and walked out of the room. Since it was dark now, the pack house became so quiet. I guess the maids and some pack me
*****Tihana's POV***I felt discomfort in my stomach, and so I quickly stood up, only to find myself sitting on Theo's office chair with my head resting on his desk. Goodness! I can't believe I had slept in his study until this very moment. I looked at the time on the wall clock, and it was 8AM. I creased my brow when I noticed that he wasn't here. It can't be that he didn't come home at all last night. If that was the case, what could have happened to him? Why is he not here yet? Panic washed over me again. I quickly stood up from the chair, but suddenly felt my knees go numb. Immediately I sat back on the chair. If I had known I would be sleeping on the chair, I would have laid on the sofa rather than the chair. I need to go out to find him. I need to know the progress of his search. But first, I tried his number again, but it still wasn't going through. While I was still in his office, Dan suddenly rushed into the office. “Luna, you are here? Don't tell me you slept here?”“
****Julia's POV***As I got home, I was all smiles. Last night was the best night I've ever had. I'm sure things will change from now on. When we finally arrived at the Red Moon Pack, I caught sight of Tihana. Knowing she was going to come over to meet us, I quickly went over to the back seat and helped Theo out of the car since he was still weak. That must have hurt her, seeing how she retreated inside. “I'm sorry, Tihana, you seem to be a good friend, but I think things will not be the same from now on,” I whispered to myself as I walked into my room. I stood in front of the mirror and smiled. This is just the beginning of our encounter. I think things will get even better and better from now on. I'll make sure of it for sure. By the time I'm done, Theo will only be mine. I walked into the bathroom and washed myself up, still with a smile. While all this was going on, I heard my mom's voice. “Love, are you in the bathroom?”“Yes, mom, I'll be done soon.”I quickly washed up and
***Alpha Theo's POV***“Last night was so terrible that I didn't even want to think about it. I have blamed myself ever since I woke up this morning. I wanted to ask Tihana if she was worried about me, but then she was mad at me already. I doubt she ever wants to hear from me at this point. It was better not to say anything that might spike up her anger. I had plenty of files to review, and it was getting rather difficult to do so because my head still aches due to what I had passed through yesterday. “Theo, you need to focus. This is not the time to be lazy about now. There's too much at stake as of the moment. Just then I heard a sharp knock on the door. The homely and familiar scent made me raise my gaze up to the door at once. “Please come in, dad.”My dad walked in briskly. “Son, what's going on?”I quickly raised my gaze up to my dad, wondering what he was talking about. “What do you mean?”“Well, it so happens that there's this rumor which is spreading like wildfire about
*****Tihana's POV***“Honey, why do I sense that there's something you are not telling me?”“I'm okay, aunt. I just… I just feel all stuffy and want a breath of fresh air.”“Huh? Though there are fancy places where you could actually get a breath of fresh air in the pack house.”“I thought so as well, but I rather feel suffocated in the pack house,” I stated, while pressing my lips together and trying not to cry out. “Oh dear, why does it seem like you're passing through a lot?”“That's because…” I trailed off, not knowing what to say at that very moment. I felt so frustrated that I couldn't even speak. My aunt suddenly came beside me and pulled my head on her chest, so I could lean on her. It was at that moment I knew I wouldn't be able to hold my tears anymore. I burst into tears at that very moment.“My poor child, who could have hurt you this much? Who dared to make you cry? Talk to me, Tihana, I want to know.”I sniffled back my tears and wiped off the tears that stuck to my ch
***Alpha Theo's POV***I waited patiently for my mate. I can't leave without her. I know for a fact that she's mad at me, and there's no way I'm going to let this drag on. I have to apologize for last night and if she asks me what happened… I trailed off, not knowing what to say. Fuck! Why did I not think of this before coming here? There's a huge possibility that she would surely ask me what happened last night. Since it had become a rumor in the pack, she would surely have heard of it, just like she heard of what Adam had done. After waiting for two hours, Tihana's mom came over to meet me. “Alpha Theo, Luna is still very much asleep. According to what she had told me earlier, she lacked sleep these past few days and the reason she needed to take a nap here.”“It is all my fault. I'm the reason she couldn't get all the sleep she could have gotten.”“Oh, come on, Alpha. This is not the time to pass self blame. Why don't you go back to the pack? Once Luna is awake, I'll inform you
***Tihana's POV***We finally arrived at my dad's pack mansion after I waited for Theo to leave. I wasn't feeling the party at all. Since I was invited, it seems I have no choice but to attend. The pack compound was filled with cars which I suspect were from guests. Furthermore, I could hear instruments. Though my father owns the pack, the pack still looks so strange to me. It's almost like the Pack was never meant for me in the first place. “Maybe it wasn't.” I said in my thoughts. “Luna, it's time for us to go in. I'm sure the Alpha is waiting for us. Thanks to Kira, I got out of the car. I'm almost due, but then, I want to believe this will be my last time attending his party. I don't think I have the stomach to keep attending his parties. We walked into the pack house together. As soon as Alpha Logan, or should I say my dad laid eyes on us, I noticed how he quickly dismissed his guests and walked over to where I stood with Chris' and Kira. “Tihana, my darling. I'm so glad y
**Tihana's POV**“What? Adam has a child with Vanessa?”“Yes, love, Adam just admitted to our father that he had a child with Vanessa.”“What the hell! This is shocking.”“More shocking than I could ever imagine.”“Wait a minute, are we really the ones at fault here, honey?”“Huh? What do you mean?”“Well, according to what you said, Adam blames us for being the reason he got drunk and had sex with Vanessa, is that not so?”“Oh, come on, love. I don't understand why Adam is saying that. Getting mad at someone because the person you love is married is one thing, having sex with someone because you're drunk is another. There's no relationship between these two. Do not let his words get to you. We are not the cause of what happened to them.”Theo was right. Whatever happened to them was their fault and not ours. “Now I think I understand why Vanessa came to the pack searching for Adam, that day. It must have been because of their son.”“Oh well. I'm happy my brother finally had a son. I
***Adam's POV***“What? Repeat what you just said this very minute. Did you just say you have a child?”My dad asked. Currently, it almost seemed as though smoke was about to come out of his ears. “Dad, please calm down, will you? There's no need for you to get so worked up.”"What do you mean get worked up? You just told me you have a child.y goodness! I'm sure your mother would be furious with me when I finally get reunited with her. What is all this? Wait a moment, there's really no need to get worked up over this. Now tell me, who did you have a child with? Your mate? I suppose if you are having a child with someone, it should be your mate or a woman you are madly in love with. That's fair enough.”I can guess why my dad said that. He probably is of the belief that I wouldn't like a woman that easily. He was right. Though I have a child, that doesn't stop the fact that I still think about Tihana. I wonder when this feeling will finally evade me. “Adam?” My dad called, which imm
***Adam's POV***After four hours in the hospital, I began to feel anxious. I wonder if the procedure is still ongoing or if there's some sort of complications. Goodness! Things can't go wrong now. I've only just heard about my son now. I can't afford to let him die now that I know of his existence. I took a glance at Vanessa, who seemed to be far lost in thoughts. At this point, I don't even know what to say to her. I was so much annoyed at her, but I didn't dare to show it because we were still at the hospital and our son's life was at stake. Why did she tell me about him only now that he's fighting for his life? What a cruel lady she is. While I was lost in thoughts, the door to the room where my son was taken in, flew open and the doctor walked out with a nurse. Immediately I saw him, I quickly stood up on my feet.Vanessa stood up as well, walking ahead of me. “Doctor, how's my son?”“Thank goodness the blood was given on time. Your son is perfectly okay now.”“Oh my goodnes
***Tihana's POV****After Theo had left, Alpha Stone quickly took the glasses off his eyes and breathed a sigh of relief. “Tihana dear, ever since you came back to the pack house, I haven't seen you. This is because I wanted to give you time to adjust.”I paused my lips and took my gaze downwards. “Tihana, you had every reason to get mad after all that happened. The reason I called you here is to talk about your mom. I don't know what the others told you about your mom, but I want to tell you about her. Can I?”“Yes, please. I need to hear more about her. I would like to know what she did and didn't do.”“What she did, and didn't do?”I know why, Alpha Stone seemed to be confused about what I had said. “Yes. While I was abducted by Irene, she said so many things that got me thinking and greatly confused. Everything I've heard about my mother was good. But Irene. Made my mom look like the most evil person on earth. That I cannot condone. For me to face the situation head on, I need
***Tihana's POV***As soon as Vanessa left my presence, so many thoughts flashed through my mind. “Kira, what do you think could be the problem with, Vanessa.”“Luna, to be honest, I have no idea what she's thinking or what is going on with her. Though from the look of things, she seemed rather panicked even though she was trying to act tough in front of us.”“You are a good observer, Kira. I saw the same thing too. I'm of the idea that there's something extremely terrible happening to Vanessa, but I know she would never speak about it.”“In my opinion, I think Vanessa is far too prideful and disrespectful to you. Personally, I don't support her actions and I think you should finally put her in her place, Luna.”“Kira, Vanessa is the least of my worries. Though, she's quite hot headed and had done some considerable bad things in the past. I had forgiven her and I had vowed not to get in here. There's something about her that keeps me feeling soft-hearted for her. Maybe it's because
****Adam's POV***While in the doctor's office, I was asked for blood, and when I heard this. I made up my mind without hesitation. “Please be patient, the blood will be tested and results will be called out soon.”Vanessa nodded her head while wiping off tears from the corner of her eyes. Being confused was an understatement. I was terribly appalled by the situation in front of me. After some minutes, the nurse, who took my blood sample, walked into the office. “Doctor, the test has been carried out, and it's a hundred percent match.”“Oh goddess!” Vanessa exclaimed. I also breathed a sigh of relief, though I have no idea what's actually going on. “Miss Vanessa and Mr. Adams, now that there's a match, we'll quickly carry out the procedures as soon as possible,” the doctor informed. “Thank you so much, doctor. I'm so grateful for your help.”~**An hour later**“Two cups of coffee, please.”I said to the nice lady with blonde hair. “Alright, sir, I'm on it.”I'm in a cafeteria
***Vanessa's POV***“Huh? His father died?”“Yes. So can we seek an alternative?”“This will be a tough battle, Miss Vanessa. Like I said, finding your son's blood type was rare. And I don't know how much time we have left to find a match.”“What do you mean he has so much time left?” I asked, even when I was terribly afraid of what that might mean. “You might not know this, but the only way to save your son is through blood transfusion. I'm scared that if we do not make this quick, we might end up losing your son to death.”My heart sank that instant. I'm officially done for. I quickly stood up from the chair and began to pace like a maniac. Presently, the life, and death of my son rests on my shoulders. What am I supposed to do now? If I refuse to call who I know can save my son, then my lovely son will end up dying, and I know I will never forgive myself. But if I accept to call him. I'm going to end up being ridiculed by the world at large. What am I going to do now? This is h
***Vanessa's POV**It was a Monday and I'm already feeling stressed as it is. Monday's are always hectic, but the good thing is that no matter how hectic it might be, there's always a way out of the situation. Just as I was about to delve into the day's activities, I suddenly got a call. I wonder who it was, calling me early in the morning, knowing I'll be at work. I quickly picked up my phone which was on the table and took a glance at the caller. To my greatest surprise, it was Azreal's nanny. I furrowed my brow, wondering what might have happened. It can't be that Azreal is sick again. Immediately I picked up the call with a little panicked heart. “What's going on, Nanny?”“It's Azrael ma'am,” she reported, and my heart sank at that very moment. “W…what happened to my son?” I asked in panic. “H… He's at the hospital now.”“What?” I quickly stood up from my chair all at once. “What did you just say”“You need to come to the hospital, ma'am, the doctor needs to speak with yo
