“I feel like this dress makes me look fat. I look like the wicked stepmother from movies.”

Alicia turned to give me a look before continuing to search through the closet for a dress.

“You’ve said that about every dress that you’ve worn.”

“Because it’s true.”

“No, it’s not. You’ve actually looked really good in everything that you’ve worn so there is no need to feel like this. I'm sure Lucian will find you very pretty and maybe at the end of the night, the dress might not even matter anymore.”

My mouth dropped as I processed what she said.

“You shouldn’t be saying these kinds of things with that bay in your tummy.”

Alicia laughed.

“I told her before but she doesn't listen.”

“Well, that’s not going to be an issue because if this baby is anything like Roman, then no matter what I do, he will be like Roman.”

“I found it!” Alicia announced.

It was a very beautiful, long red dress with a very high slit and deep cleavage.

“That is…that is going to get me places I don't want to go. Let

    EDENI had to tell him. I had kept it from him for too long and so getting within me was telling me that the earlier I did that, the better.I wouldn't like Roman finding out by himself. I'd been trying to reach Matilda's number for days but it wasn't going through. If even tried the other maids at the house but none of then were available.That was odd but I couldn't really lay attention to it to all that was going on on my own end.I cane down from the stairs and approached the office, waving at Coco and Belle who were talking about heaven knows what and laughing so loudly.I was so glad my baby was fine. What happened had been close. I was so mad at Roman for not doing anything but I still needed him as much as I didn't want to speak to him.My hand was raised to knock on the door but I halted when I heard voices inside.”When are you going to tell her about him? She needs to know!”That was Quinn's voice.”I will tell her. I just need some time to sort things out. She's not even s

    EDENThe fact that he was mad at me made things worse for me when I was packing.He'd come back to apologize for raising his voice and being mad but he still was. I knew that normally, he wouldn't have been as mad as that but the fact that he was dealing with a whole lot made things worse.As I thought about what, I also thought about the conversation that brought all this.Cage had declared war against him. I never really feared anyone but I knew why I feared Cage coming after him.One time back home, he had gone after a young boy who had said something about his face. There was a scare on his face from a battle and it added to his intimidating look.He'd heard the kid say something about how ugly it made him and when he heard it, he went after the kid even when his parents begged for mercy and even when my father told him to let the boy go, he refused and he ended up giving the boy a scar matching his.The boy was not even up to eighteen. That was just the list of things he did to p

    EDENWe didn't leave that day. The flight didn't happen due to a storm and the pilot declared us unable to fly for a few days which made me happy.It gave me time to settle things with Roman before I left. Even if he was still going to chase me away, at least, let us be on good terms. That was all I asked for.I was there when the pilot told him about the storm and he barely said anything to me.He just called a maid that was passing by.“Take the bags back to the room. There's a storm.”As he walked away, I couldn't help but notice how sexy he looked.. It was like he'd been working out a lot lately because his shoulders look broader and he looked more muscular.I shook myself out of my head when Belle ran after him.“Daddy, wait for me!”He stopped and turned around, the frown on his face disappearing and being replaced by a smile as he picked her up and kissed her on the cheek.Well, it was good to know that he was mad at only me. He called Coco to come over and then three of them d

    ROMANHow stupid of me to have thought that things would take a turn from that time. It had been a month since I got the declaration of war from those wimps and nothing had happened. It was like Cage had gone off the radar and he completely disappeared.Even the spies that I sent came back with no information, saying that nothing was going on in the pack and even training had stopped. At first, I thought that it was a trick but with the way I was seeing things, it's not a trick anymore.I thought that he would do it so that i would think that he had backed down and then, he would use that opportunity to attack but i was wrong. Nothing was happening and it had been a month.The Only place I could get information from was the council and right now, they had placed a ban on me never coming into the capital and that was fine. I didn't want to be there with them either way. But I needed information.Now that I knew what this entire thing was about Eden taking over as Alpha, it made it easi

    ROMANA week after, the door opened and Quinn walked in.“What is it?” I was looking up baby cots to buy because Eden and Alicia couldn’t move around anymore because of how heavy they had become.The doctor in the pack wanted to have them admitted to the hospital just in time for their birth but I said no. I wanted my son to be born in his father’s house and right now, I couldn't trust anybody with my family. Cage was still out there and same with that woman I didn’t know.Also, with Henry's absence, I had to take responsibility for his family too and with his baby on the way, they were my family now too. They had always been but with him not being here, I felt more responsible than usual.“Do you think this looks good?” I turned the laptop on and showed it to her.“You want to order baby cots?”“Yeah, the babies will be here very soon and I want to be prepared for them.”She smiled and sat down.“Look at you being all nice and soft. I should call you Alpha Marshmallow.”“Did you get

    EDENAlicia and I just sat outside on the chairs by the pool, taking in the fresh breeze of the early evening when we heard a scream.We’d been bored, with nothing to do all afternoon. Without due dates getting closer and closer, it felt like we were carrying the whole world in our bellies.“When this baby comes out, I’m going to leave the kids with Henry and run away to another country. That’s payback for leaving me alone for all this while.”We laughed.‘I’m sure he’ll understand. You deserve a break.”‘We deserve breaks. I feel like I'm carrying more than one kid in my belly. I really hope it's not twins, I might actually cry.”“No, I'd love for them to be twins. It would be so lovely to be their aunt.”She gave me the stink eye.“Of course, it will be lovely. You’re not the one carrying them, how about you give birth to twins too and I carry them?”“No, I'm sure this child will be a boy. Just one boy, I'm sure of it.”She rolled her eyes and nodded.“Never in my life did I think w

    ROWANWe found her body on the ground but her head was hung on the ceiling, her hair used as ropes.The scene before us was mortifying. When I was called down as a state of emergency, I thought it was because Elena had tried to kill herself or she had decided to sell me the truth about Rowan. I hadn’t been expecting this.From the gate, the two guards that had been placed at the gate were on the floor motionless and there was no blood around them.“They’re dead, Alpha.” Lucian declared.I checked again to be double sure. He was right, they were dead.I walked past them, walking deeper into the cell when I began to see the liquid around me. It was like a stream, flowing from a headless source.The first thing I saw was not actually the blood but the bone in her neck from where she had been decapitated.Her body lay on the floor, in the pool of blood and there was still blood dripping from her head to the floor.Only two questions were on my mind.How did he manage to overpower her and

    THIRD PERSON POVWhile everyone back home was looking for Roman, he was on the other side of the town, looking through his pockets and swearing that he carried his phone.The minister noticed that he was distracted.“Is there anything you need? Are you looking for something?”Roman looked up.“Yes, I'm sure that I carried my phone but now, I can't find it.”Roman knew that he would have gotten so many calls. He'd left the house very early and no one knew where he was.He didn't take any guard with him either.“Maybe it fell on the way."Of course, it did. With all those bullets raining on his head, why won't it fall out?It had been pure luck that he had escaped. He was almost at the minister's house when he noticed a car that he was sure he'd seen when he got off the highway.He'd rolled his eyes, not wanting to be involved in any of this today.“Can we do this in a week? I have something to do today.”What should he do now? He knew he couldn't avoid them.To make sure that he was ri

    EDENIT was already seven pm and I still couldn't find him. I was ready and so was everyone else but he was nowhere to be found.I'd called him and so had Quinn but he wasn't picking up his calls at all.“Edem, are you sure he didn't tell you where he was going?”I thought back to last night and scrolled through our conversation.“No, I don't remember him saying anything about going anywhere. After I told him about the officiating minister, that was where the conversation ended. Nothing more happened.”Quinn came back.“His phone is switched off.”Wonderful, just great. Roman was missing on no other day than our wedding day.Where could he be? Even if he was stuck in traffic, he could at least pick up his phone.Or maybe he truly wasn't interested in getting married to me.But then he would have just said it then when I brought it up. Why didn't he say anything? He had the choice to reject me last night but he didn't.”Eden, don't worry. We'll find him in time for the wedding.”Alicia

    EDENI woke up early that morning.Well, we didn't sleep after that.. we stayed up the entire night talking about everything we'd been through and it touched me.Eventually, I fell asleep on his shoulder and I didn't even know. I was sitting in his lap and I woke up on the bed.Alicia was standing above me .“Hey, wake up. Let's get you ready. Roman left the house really early this morning and I have to go back home to get a dress for myself. I mean, I can't wear this.”She had eye bags and her face was very dim. She has started crying again sometime during the night.”Alicia, sit down. We need to talk.”She was avoiding my eyes.“Eden, there's a lot to be done today. I mean, you don't even have a makeup artist or a hairstylist either. Your dress isn't here yet and the food isn't ready. There's a lot to be done.”I knew that all that wasn't truly her concern. She was just trying to avoid talking about me.“Alicia, please -”“Eden, there's no time. We need to get ready."I had to get

    EDENWhen I finally got into the house later that night, I couldn't sleep so I just stared out the window at the stary night.Alicia had fallen asleep while feeding the kids so I would break the news to her tomorrow.I'd had to tell Quinn what had happened.“Really?! Was that why you were staring into the dark?””Yes, she was standing there. I'm not going to die, Quinn. I'm going to be here with my kids.”She pulled me in for a hug and held me tightly.“I'm so happy, Eden. You don't know how terrible I felt when you told me that. How can you die without watching your kids grow up?"I was just happy that I hadn't rushed to tell Roman anything that was going on.He was clearly exhausted because he didn't even wake up when I entered the room and when I got in the bed. I was equally so tired because I had spent a lot of time getting things ready today.My body was tired but my mind was still awake and buzzing.I was going to get married tomorrow. I should have told Quinn that we should ju

    EDENWe got back home late that night.Mostly because we needed to pull ourselves so that we won't show that we've been crying.Everytime we finally stopped crying, Alicia started again and we started another whole process of consoling each other.“Please stop crying. I don't know what I'm going to do if you're like this.”She finally pulled herself together and we got into the car and drove back home.“Are you really not going to tell Roman?"“I don't have a plan to. I'm sorry, I just can't bring myself to tell him. He will be shattered, Alicia.”She still wasn't fine with it but she didn't say anything else until we got home.Alicia went into the house to check in on Roman and the kids while I went to the back of the house to check in on what Quinn was doing.She was actually on a chair and table with her legs up while eating everything she brought from the restaurant.“You seem to be enjoying yourself.”My voice frightened her.“Sorry about that.”“You guys surely took your time..

    EDENWe'd ended up at a restaurant because the bar we wanted to go to was closed.Roman had already called me four times to ask Alicia questions about the twins and he sounded like he was about to lose it.“Let’s eat so much that we won't be able to walk again.”And that's what we did. I think we ordered everything in the menu and we basically had the chef at our call to make anything that we wanted.That was the first time I would be eating so much food in one day and it felt so good.“I don't think I can eat anymore. I'm so full.”Quinn had been the one to bring us here and now she was already full. Alicia's mood had changed and she wasn't speaking anymore.Quinn's phone rang and she stood up to answer it.“Alicia-”“What’s going on, Eden? And don't even tell me not to ask questions. Because you can't keep doing this. I'm your best friend. You have to be truthful.”What was sj to do at this point? I had no other choice than to tell her the truth.She deserved that much.“Balari came

    EDENAlicia did come over that evening.And we stayed in the room throughout.“It’s fine. I'll take care of the kids. You guys just do what girls do. Whatever it is that you do.”Roman took the twins and left us.“What in the world happened? Why did you faint?"I acted like I had no idea what was going on.“I mean, I don't know. I just felt weak and tired and next thing I know, I'm waking up in a hospital.”“Woah, that is crazy.. but you're fine right? I mean, yorie okay?"“Yes, I'm fine.”I needed to change the topic.“Hey, about Henry, I've spoken to Roman about it and he had no idea that Henry wasn't home. He said he was going to help track him down.”I actually hadn't spoken to Roman about it but I just needed to say something that would make her forget about the previous topic.“Thank you. I just hope we won't have to go through everything we went through back then. He'll surely come back.”Surely, he will. He's probably just busy.Speaking of Roman doing things, I still needed t

    EDENI'd come home the day after that. The doctor said that I was free and healthy to leave but I didn't feel free.“Why the long face? Aren't you happy to come home?”I turned to Roman who was driving.”Oh no, it's nothing like that. I'm just tired."What was the point of being happy when I knew what was coming? And I couldn't tell him. I didn't want him to feel responsible for it.Roman is very quick to blame himself and I didn't want him to. I should just die peacefully so that he would have the guts to move on from me.If I told him that it was because of him I was going to die, then I would mess things up.I recalled my last conversation with Balari.“Are you sure it's what you want, Eden? Men are not worth it. You can live with your kids and raise them in your own way. You don't have to do this.”But it seemed like the more we spoke about it, the more determined I was to do it.“I do, actually. I love Roman, I can't let him die for something he has no hand in.”“And you have a

I knew this wasn't my room, and it surely didn't smell like this.I tried to move my hand and when I saw the IV line shake, I sighed. The hospital.How did I end up here and why didn't I remember anything?Me being here meant that something had happened to me but for the life of me, I couldn't bring myself to. I felt so weak so I just relaxed in my bed.I didn't even have the strength to call for help and eventually, I slept.The next time I woke up, the sun was out thankfully and my eyes didn't feel as heavy as a boulder.My stomach was hurting badly, partly the fact that I hadn't eaten in a day and half. I needed food or else I might actually die this time around..I sat up in my bed, clutching my stomach tightly. I also needed to pee. I've never been to the hospital before.Roman was born in the pack and Belle?Well, Belle was born at home because I had no idea I was in labor and since Alicia and I had never been mo
