****Tihana's POV****Being locked up became a misery for me. I wonder what the outside world looks like. To worsen it, there's a possibility that I might not be able to escape even if I wanted to. What I care most about isn't myself, but my unborn child. I wouldn't want anything bad to happen to the child in my womb. I want my child to survive, and the only way to go about that is if I survive. She had made it clear to me that she would not let me go. In other words, she wouldn't rest until I'm dead. I can't hold on to anyone saving me as of the moment. The only person I can depend on as of the moment is no one else but myself. I thought of ways to prevent myself from getting killed by her or the men stationed watching me. I haven't fought or been trained into fighting before now. Even if I were to take down all of these guards, how do I go about it without getting caught?The door to the room suddenly opened and no one else, but Irene walked in. This time she was putting on tight
****Julia's POV****I followed her on a tip toe, so she wouldn't hear my foot on the floor. I had pulled off my heels just to keep me away from her eyes. Just as I thought I would be able to get into where she was headed, I suddenly saw two guards at the entrance of the place she was heading to. Shit! I didn't see that coming. Where exactly was this place, and why are there guards in such a hidden place? This can't be right. I wish there's a way I could go in to see for myself. Just then, I thought about going through another route. I only hope there won't be guards over there as well. As soon as I appeared on the other side, I smiled in relief. Good thing there are no guards over there. Just as I got close to the building, I began to hear voices. Voices I seemed to have recognized too well. The first one was my mom's, and the second one was shockingly from… Tihana? No way, that can't be. I must have thought about this wrongly. My heart sank when I heard the harsh words my mom was
***Alpha Theo's POV***As soon as I got the text from Julia, I went wide in shock. I never expected to get such a text from her. Immediately, I stormed into Alpha Logan's office, where my dad and Logan stayed while waiting for news. “Dad, I just got a text from Julia.”“What text?” My dad asked, and so did Alpha Logan. I think she knows where Tihana was taken.”“What? My daughter knows where Tihana is? That's impossible, she never told me such a thing.”Alpha Logan argued. “She sent me a text. You can see for yourself to confirm whether it's true or not.”I showed him the text which Julia had sent to me, and he instantly became appalled. “How possible is this? The Eagle's Pack she mentioned is her uncle's pack.”“Aha! I knew it. I knew Tihana's disappearance had something to do with you. Now your daughter has finally exposed who the culprit is. Are you still going to deny your involvement now? I would like to know, Logan?”“Are you still going to blame after what the text says? If
***Alpha Theo's POV****Just as I followed Tihana's scent, I suddenly heard growls and screams, coming from the direction of where I had perceived Tihana's scent. At the same time, I could feel the restlessness of my wolf. Tihana is in danger. Immediately, I ran as fast as my legs could carry me with my weapon in hand. The moment I got to where I heard the screams, I was shocked to see the guards all shift to their wolves. Among the crowd, I recognized my mate's wolf attacking Julia. “Shit!” In anger, I shifted into my wolf and attacked the men who were about to attack my mate. The first one I encountered, I tore him from limb to limb, and this got the others surprised. I bet they weren't expecting that I could actually do that within seconds. I'llAnother approached me and I did the same while protecting my mate from them. Even though she's terribly mad at me now, I didn't care at all, as long as I could keep her safe, I'm uncertain if there was anything to worry about. After get
***Alpha Theo's POV***My heart clenched with pain at her refusal to see me. But can I blame her for her rejection? This is all my fault if it should be looked at properly. If only I hadn't made her so mad at me, things would have been different by now. “I know you hate me so much now, love. But I just want to let you know that all the things I did were because I love you so much. I can't afford to be away from you. I love you so much, and I didn't want anyone to hurt you.”I explained, but she didn't say a word to me. I could tell that she was terribly mad at me. Even if she was mad, I should still explain some things to her. I'm not hoping that she would forgive me, but I just want her to know the reason I hid the truth from her. “Love, at first, I hid the truth about Adam because I didn't want you to feel sad. I knew that if you found out about what Adam did, you'd be terribly downcast. I was only trying to help the situation, not worsen it. Please forgive me if I made you mad d
***Tihana's POV***Listening to her speak this way only got me terribly annoyed. I wasn't expecting her to be this boastful even after she had been caught. Indeed, she's such an evil person who does not require redemption. Someone like her, I would forever hate. “What do you mean by that, Irene?” Alpha Logan asked, giving a confused expression. Right, as the weak Alpha I think he is, he would never be able to tell exactly what's going on unless he was told. How pathetic. I feel so annoyed to the bones. I have never been annoyed as I am at this very moment. “Irene, what exactly are you talking about?”“Logan, you might not know this since you've been so trusting towards me. I learned you are searching for the men who were present when the accident happened with Selene. You couldn't find them, right?”“And what has that got to do with you?” He asked with a raised brow. “Almost everything. Haven't you wondered how your wife got into an accident?”“Mom, please stop!” Julia pleaded wit
***Tihana's POV***I had gone back to the infirmary to continue my treatment, but even when I was there, I felt suffocated. I just wanted to leave. All what happened to me during these times is just too difficult to hear. I don't think I can take it anymore. So many things had happened. So many things have gone wrong. I stared out of the window from my bed like a caged bird, longing for freedom. Though, the freedom I seek isn't because I was locked up. I see freedom from everyone. I would rather not see their faces. I just want to be on my own. I hate everyone and everything. I shut my eyes and let my tears pour out of my eyes. If only crying could take me out of the situation I was in, I should have been the happiest person on earth. Suddenly, the door to my room flew open. Since my eyes were already shut, I didn't bother to open them. I just wanted to be alone. “Tihana, I know you are mad at me at this very moment, but I want to let you know that I was only doing this because of
***Julia's POV***“Dad, please, I beg you. Can I talk to mom for just 20 minutes?”“No! Hell no! That evil witch is not your mother. If I hadn't known, I would have thought you were working with her. It seems she's the one trying to manipulate you into doing the things which you've done.”“Dad, I know mom has done terrible things, and she would be killed in no time. I also know she doesn't deserve a second chance, but all I ask is to see her for the very last time before her death. That's all I ask.”“There's no need to worry about her death.”I furrowed my brow, confused. “What do you mean, dad?”“What I'm trying to say is that she would not be issued death. But the punishment she would be getting would make her wish she was dead instead.”My heart sank as I stared at my dad. His gaze held no warmth in them. There's no doubt that my mom had hurt him beyond reasoning, and he doesn't seem like he'll ever forgive her.“Since she wouldn't be killed, that's more reason why I need to see
