Sierra pov.As I sat on the bed, the door slowly opened, and Dean walked in, carrying a comforting bottle of soft drink. His gentle smile brightened my day as he handed it to me. I whispered my gratitude, feeling a sense of warmth and comfort.I still carried William's child inside me, and it made me realize that this chapter of my life wasn't entirely closed. Yes, I did feel guilty about considering letting go of my child, but I was beginning to see a future without a connection to William.After a moment of silence, I mustered the courage to speak up. "Do you think everything I've done is right? Do I bear responsibility for everything that's happened to me?" Tears welled up in my eyes, and the pain inside me was overwhelming. Dean comforting embrace enveloped me as he drew me closer. His gentle touch wiped away my tears. "You don't need to blame yourself for anything, Sierra. I chose you, and I believe the goddess has a special reason for bringing you into my life."As I heard him
Few days later..Sierra pov I was overjoyed as I held my daughter in my hands and smiled at her. Witnessing my daughter's beauty, I felt immense happiness, knowing that one of my children was alive.Today, Dean will be asking me to be his Luna, and I can't help but feel overwhelmed. Just imagine me becoming Dean's Luna!After a while of gazing at my daughter's face, the door opened, and Dean, accompanied by one of the maids, walked in. Dean gently took Aria away from my hands."How is my beautiful princess doing?" he asked. All I could do was laugh, seeing the way he played with Aria as if she had already grown up."You know she's always happy that you are her father."I stood up, walked over to Dean, and placed my hands on Aria, who kept laughing at Dean, now her father."I don't know if I can do this Dean, am scared that I might not be the one the people wish to become your Luna tonight, am just scared and I just don't know why."Dean gave Aria to the madis as he ask them to take c
Sierra pov.I observe Dean pacing around the room, lost in thought. I sit there, keeping my distance from Alex and Williams, wondering why they're here and how they know Dean. Standing up, I approach Dean, who is immersed in confusion."Dean," I call out, but he seems lost, not paying attention. "Dean," I try again, and he stops, looking at me as I gently place my hands on his face."Please, Dean, don't do this to yourself. Just relax, and let's talk about it."As I gaze into his eyes, I sense emotions, as if he might cry. I realize he must be in pain, and it's my fault."Why didn't you tell me Aria's father was Williams all this time? Why did you lie to me?"Tears well up in my eyes as I move my face closer to him, feeling the weight of the situation."I'm sorry; I just didn't want you to push me away. I feel happy around you, and I got scared that if I told you, you would never have loved me."After expressing my feelings, Alex stood up, walked over to where we both were, and said,
Alex pov.I wondered, how did she end up in this place, and why is Dean by her side?Standing near William, he remained unusually silent, as if lost in deep contemplation.Moving closer, I gazed at his face and called out, "Are you okay?" But, unexpectedly, he tightened his grip on my neck, leaving me gasping for breath.Struggling to free myself, his strength overwhelmed me. Finally released, I fell to the floor, clutching my neck and questioned, "Why didn't you tell me that child was never mine? Why did you lie?"As I lay there, he coldly walked away, leaving me pondering, "Are you trying to kill me or what?"I rose abruptly, seething with anger after slamming my leg onto the unforgiving floor. How dare he? Who does he think he is?Just as I prepared to storm out in search of him, a girl entered the room. To my surprise, it was Linda."Hello, Alex, long time no see," she said, approaching me. I stood there, unable to do anything but gaze at her."Why do you look at me as if you just
Sierra pov.I sat nervously with Aira on my hands, observing Dean sitting silently. Feeling uneasy, I stood up and walked toward him as he looked up, meeting my gaze."Dean, I know you're upset, but can we please talk?"He remained silent, attempting to walk away, prompting me to shout and halt him."Is this the love you promised? You said you'd never leave my side, so why are you going away now?"Overwhelmed with guilt, I wanted to cry. I couldn't bear the thought of losing Dean, and being ignored by him hurt deeply.I stepped in front of him, gazing into his eyes, realizing how broken he was."I'm sorry, Dean. It's just that I feel you might not love me. I love you, Dean, and if you leave me, I'll have no place to go."After he kept looking at me without saying anything, I turned around with tears as I decided to walk away, giving him some space. Just as I took a step, he pulled me back and placed a kiss on my lips.I held Aria tightly, so she wouldn't break down. After Dean pulled
Henry pov.For quite a while, I haven't laid eyes on Sierra, and my concern has been growing, not knowing if she's doing okay. The uncertainty about William troubles me deeply; I can't fathom what might be wrong with him, and at times, I feel this urge to confront him.Sierra, I know, is going through a tough time, and witnessing her treated as if she's nobody pains me as well. Hiding behind the woods, I fixate on William Castle, surrounded by an eerie silence that perplexes me.Standing there for what felt like an endless hour, I attempted to catch a glimpse of him, hoping to talk some sense into him, but he remained elusive. Returning to town, the indifferent gazes of the people remind me that William forbade my return, yet my sole desire is to ensure Sierra's well-being.Confusion sets in as I contemplate where to begin my search for her. The anger towards William for causing her so much pain simmers within me, yet I must restrain myself and focus on finding Sierra and ensuring she
Sierra pov.I strolled through the hallway after my conversation with Williams, deciding to spend some time alone. It doesn't matter that Williams is my friend or that he's Aria's father; my priority is my child's happiness.I acknowledge that my actions might be considered wrong, but I feel compelled to protect my child from Alex. I constantly question whether what happened between me with Alex is real or just a dream.I've been contemplating a better way to distance Williams and Alex, as encountering them only intensifies the pain they've caused me.Suddenly, I heard yelling and felt compelled to investigate. The more I approached, the more familiar the voices became.As I reached the source of the commotion, I was astonished to find Henry there."Henry," I exclaimed in a soft and surprised tone. When he looked at me, my happiness overflowed, and I eagerly rushed over to him, embracing him tightly, oblivious to the presence of Williams.After a few delightful minutes, we both separa
Dean pov.I dislike witnessing her sadness. I understand she's my dear friend Mate, but she no longer desires him. Since learning about their situation, I've been infuriated with Williams for mistreating Sierra.I'm not fond of the other guy, whom I don't know much about. The way he looks at Sierra bothers me.Sierra is at home now, and I'm unwilling to let her go, regardless of who that person might be.Observing Sierra, who sits on the bed overwhelmed with sadness, I ponder if she truly loved Williams or if she harbored resentment.Approaching her, I sit close, wrapping my hands around her."Are you concerned about earlier?" I inquire, only for her to glance at me briefly before turning her gaze back to the window."I'm not sad, Dean. I'm just worried about what might happen. I don't want to revert to the past; I appreciate this new life, and I'm afraid everything will regress to how it was before."Her words concern me, and I gently turn her face to meet mine."You don't need to wo
William..Alex has become a torment in my life, thwarting all my attempts to keep her at bay. She is so different to handle, and I know I am foolish to admit it, but all I want is a semblance of peace of mind, yet now there seems to be no way I can get Sierra back into my life or protect my daughter.As I sat down, pondering my predicament, I heard yelling outside, prompting me to wonder what was happening beyond my walls. I walked over to the window and peered outside, only to see Henry with an angry expression on his face, his wolf form visibly present. Acting swiftly, I made my way out to where he stood, and as soon as he noticed me, he shifted back to his human form, though the anger still etched on his face."Where is she?" Henry bellowed, striding towards me. I tried to make sense of what he was trying to convey, but before I could react, he loomed close, gripping my shoulders and pulling me towards him.I stared at my ex-beta in disbelief, never expecting him to come to my pack
Henry pov..Observing Sierra walk up the stairs, I felt a wave of worry wash over me. I was unsure of what to do next, but if William was indeed the one behind Aria's disappearance, I vowed to make sure he regretted his actions as an Alpha.Stepping outside, I paused for a moment, deciding to take a walk around the castle grounds. I pondered how Alpha Dean would react to the news of Sierra's missing child. I knew he must have formed a connection with the child, and the situation could potentially escalate if he discovered that the child was missing.As I strolled around, I halted when I caught whispers in the air. Curious, I slowly made my way towards the source of the sound. To my surprise, I spotted Linda standing with one of the maids, engaged in a hushed conversation. I wondered why they chose such a secluded spot and what they were discussing.Hiding to avoid detection, I decided to eavesdrop on their conversation."As I promised, I assured you that no one will find out. Thank yo
Sierra..It has been a day since I have lost my own joy - my daughter. I am gripped by fear at the thought of contacting Dean; I don't know how she will react or if he will blame me for being so careless. But how could the maid have lost my daughter?I glare at the maid in anger as I try to calm myself down so I won't do anything stupid. I was burning with fury inside, feeling like breaking every bone in the maid's body."Where is my child?" I say softly, so I won't do anything reckless."I said, where is my child?" This time I erupted with anger, my eyes a shade of blue, and just as I was about to get violent, I was stopped by Linda."You need to stop, Sierra. We are going to look for your child, okay?" Linda said.I look at Linda with tearful eyes. How does she expect me to be calm when I don't know where my daughter is? Who took her? The maid's blank face doesn't tell me anything.I sit back on the couch, placing my hands over my face so I won't cry. I feel lost, like I am on the v
Sierra..As we entered the room, I sank into the comfortable couch while Linda, with a concerned look on her face, settled beside me. A strange unease crept over me, as if something was amiss. My gaze kept drifting towards Drake, and I felt a sensation building up inside me, like the urge to flee or the need to act at any moment."Are you okay?" Linda's voice broke through my thoughts, and I turned to her with a weak smile, responding, "I'm fine. I was just thinking if you'd like something to eat or drink."Linda chuckled softly, placing her hand on mine as she spoke, "It's okay. I'm here to spend time with you. Besides, judging by the way Dean rushed off, it seems like he's in a hurry."I smiled back at her and nodded, my eyes flickering back to Drake, who seemed lost in contemplation by the window."Do you need anything?" I inquired, as he turned to me with a grin mirroring Linda's.Glancing at Linda, I decided to answer the question she had posed to me, "Drake has some work to do,
Sierra .."I really don't understand why Linda suddenly wants to be my friend, but I guess she must have changed. Talking to her, I felt a bit happy.As we all sat in the dining room, I started eating, but I noticed Dean was lost in thought. I looked at Aria as I saw the maid feeding her. I moved my hands towards Dean, touching him, and he looked at me.“Are you okay?” I asked him, and he nodded, starting to eat. I kept looking at him, wondering what was on his mind. Was he still thinking about me making friends with Linda? But I already told him she just wants to be a friend.After I finished eating, I stood up, walking over to Aria, and lifted her up.“My sweet little Aria, I hope you are full,” I said with a smile as I placed a kiss on her cheek and handed her over to the maid to take care of her. Just as Dean stood up and was about to walk away, I stood in front of him, stopping him.“What is wrong, Dean? You don't look good since you woke up. Are you worried about anything?”He l
Linda pov..He truly believes that I will back away after causing me so much pain. But I can never back away. I will make him pay for putting me in the dark.As I walk out of the Castle, I get into the car that was waiting for me. I already feel like going home. I don't know if my sister's plan is going to work."How did it go?" Drake asks as he waits for my response. I turn my face away, ignoring him."It's best if you drive, Drake. As you can see, I am weak and I need to get out of here."He doesn't say a word. He starts the car and drives. I look at the castle one last time before looking away.I'm not sure if I should go along with my sister's plan. I feel scared in some way, and I don't know if what I'm doing is right. I know I hate Sierra. I hate her so much for stealing Dean away from me.After we arrive home, I get out of the car and Drake follows suit. Just as I'm about to walk inside, he holds my hands."You don't look good. Is anything wrong?"I look at him and push my hands
Dean pov..It had been a long day, and I couldn't wait to see Sierra and Aria. I knew they might be upset with me for being gone for so long, but I had important duties to fulfill if I wanted to protect my pack.As I walked into my castle, anticipation filled my heart. I longed to hold Sierra in my arms, to kiss her lips and tell her how much I missed her. I also couldn't wait to see Aria and tell her how much I missed playing with her.Laughter echoed through the halls, and I wondered what was happening. I made my way to the living room, only to find Sierra and Linda talking and laughing together. I paused for a moment, closing my eyes and reopening them to make sure I wasn't imagining things.When they both noticed me, Sierra stood up and walked towards me, giving me a warm hug. "Welcome back," she said.I was confused and looked at Sierra, then back at Linda. "Am I in the right castle, or did I stumble into a parallel universe where Sierra and Linda are friends?" I asked, half-joki
Sierra pov…Dean has gone for a meeting and wouldn't be back until later in the night. I decided to spend time with Aira and make her feel happy so she wouldn't feel lonely without Dean.I felt uncertain about what I was doing, unsure if I was doing anything wrong that I couldn't quite put my finger on.I sat and watched Aira play, her joyful smile bringing warmth to my heart. I tried to imagine if it was William instead, but the more I thought about him and what he had done, the angrier I became.I sat there, trying to relax and think about what to do for the rest of the day since Dean wasn't around. I was grateful that no one had come to the castle because I didn't know what I would say if they kept looking at me as if they wanted to harm me. After a while, I heard the sound of the gate opening and wondered if Dean had returned so soon. I stayed seated, not bothering to stand up because if it was Dean, he would surely know where to find me.After a while, I heard footsteps behind me
Lisa pov..I sat there, watching Drake as he continued to drink, as if I wasn't even in front of him."So, do you accept my deal?" I asked him.He stopped drinking and stared at me. "I really don't understand what you're trying to say. You want me to do the same process as before? At first, it was easy, but now I think it will be difficult. Dean will never let me go near his Luna, and whatever you're planning, it won't work this time."I smiled as I stared at him and moved my face closer. "Drake, I know you, and a man like you, I don't think you'll say no to something like this. I'm offering you a big deal, and I'll give you a lot of money in return. All I want is to make sure Dean belongs to my sister, and for that to happen, I need Sierra out of the picture."We both stared at each other for a second, and he stood up and walked towards me. "Well, I don't mind anything, but if you want me to go along with your plans, then you'll also have to do something for me as well."Looking at h
