Chapter 73Lucien POV…I came back to my senses and rushed to the bed at a lightning speed.“Camilla… Camilla you are awake?” I asked in a trembling voice.“Darling, did you also die?” she asked as she looked at me with a confused gaze.At that moment, I did not care about anything as I pulled her in for a hug!“You are awake, you are awake!” I said as I hugged her tightly, wanting to merge her into my bones.“Uhm darling, I cannot breathe!” she said, only then did I loosen my hug!“Zelma, call Liam now!” I spoke to the stunned Zelma who was still holding the lid in her hands.Liam had gone to freshen up and since Camilla is awake, then he should check on her.“Okay!”I looked at Camilla, never wanting to avert my eyes from her even for a moment. I hastily held her down in the bed when she tried to sit up, “you have only woken up, lay still for a while until the doctor comes!” I spoke as I held her firmly on the bed.“How long have I been out?” she inquired.“Close to one week!”“What
Chapter 74Camilla POV…I looked at the sleeping Lucien beside me and my heart ached. Zelma was right, all those dark circles under his eyes, it seems like he hasn’t slept for weeks!His face was pale and he looked exhausted. I kissed him on the forehead lightly and gently covered him with the blanket.I have been sleeping for a long time so I did not feel like sleeping anymore. I wanted to update myself on everything that happened while I was in a coma. Although Zelma has told me bits and pieces, I know that that was just the tip of the iceberg.Looking at how wan out Lucien looked, I knew that it must have been stormy.I haven’t gotten out of bed since I woke up. I gently removed the quilt from me and tried to stand up. I felt that my body was very sticky and the clothes I was wearing were stuck on me. I thought that I will have difficulties walking but, the moment I stepped down, my legs were just fine.What had happened that day, I did not want to even think about it. I made my w
Chapter 75Camilla POV…I could not believe juts how stormy and bloody the battle has been. I did not feel good about missing such a good show, but well, at least I am fine. There will be more to come.I looked at the video of Lucien taking oath of office and I could not hide the admiration in my eyes. my husband was just very dashing and I was filled with regret that I was not there with him during such an important event.“Darling, I am sorry!” I leaned over on his chest and said in a soft voice. It was already evening and Lucien had already woken up.He had a good sleep and he was back to his energetic self.“What are you sorry about?” he said as he caressed my head. Feeling his broad, warm palm on me made me feel very fortunate and loved.“It was such an important occasion in your life but I was not there. I don’t feel very good about it!” I spoke.“My dear, nothing is more important than you!” he said and a cool kiss landed on my forehead.“Also, thank you for not giving up on me
Chapter 76Zelma POV…I did not know that I will wake up feeling like shit on my birthday. I felt like I have been beaten up very badly and I did not even have the energy to lift my finger. My head was heavy and I only felt like sleeping.I heard it when Camilla came to my room but no matter what I tried, my eyes refused to open. It was after so much difficulty that I managed that one painful grunt.I have been excited for too long to finally hit adulthood, but I did not expect the price I had to pay will be this fucking pain that was consuming me. I have heard stories of how it is painful during your first transformation, I never imagined that it will be like this.This is beyond anything I had expected.I felt like crap as I laid on my bed without the energy to do anything. I was feeling like a moody pregnant woman who did not want to do anything. I only knew that it was painful during the process, but I did not know that the process starts so early.Well, brother-in-law said that i
Chapter 77Zelma POV…The party was going on well and everyone was having fun. People were drinking and messing around as they enjoyed this rare moment of relaxation.I only drunk a few glasses but I was already feeling intoxicated. I could see that my sister and my brother-in-law were glued together, refusing to leave each other’s side.Although I was drunk and my vision was blur, the bone chilling pain in my body was becoming more and more unbearable. I felt as if something in me wanted to break free. Maybe it was about time for what I have been looking most forward to!I went to my sister. My clothes were already soaked from the cold sweat and I was about to faint from the pain.“Sis, I cannot take it anymore. I feel like every bone in me is cracking!”“I think it is about time!” I heard Camilla say as she looked at Lucien.“Maybe we should take her to her room!” brother-in-law said. I could barely open my eyes from the pain that was shooting through my body.Before I completely pa
Chapter 78Zelma POV…The hug was warm and intimate. Even up to this point, I was not sure of what was going on!Not only has Jared come to my birthday party, he called me his mate and even hugged me! no one could blame me for thinking otherwise because everything that this man is doing right at this moment, does not align with his usually stoic and cold attitude.My heart that had been beating hysterically out of place calmed down the moment I sniffed his unique scent.After a long, long while, he finally broke the hug and looked at me directly in the eyes.Now that we were close, I felt my heart thump again at his intense stare. I was becoming more excited and this happiness that had fallen from the heavens out of the blues was getting hard to control.“Long time no see, mate!” he said in his rich baritone voice that I had missed so much!“Long time no see!” I replied on reflex, my face flushing at our close contact.“Hah, it seems like you are very surprised to see me!” he smirked.
Chapter 79 Camilla POV… After seeing Zelma shift with my own eyes, I was really happy that I could not contain my joy. Although it was only natural for wolves to shift at the age of eighteen, others were not so lucky because their wolves took time to awaken and they might even take up to two to three years. When I saw the silver fur and her golden eyes that looked so much like our mother’s, I thought that I was hallucinating. I thought that I was looking at my mother who I have been missing all these times! But when she shifted back, I realized that it was my sister! The fur of her wolf and her eyes looked exactly like our mother’s. But regardless, I was glad that she completed that step without any mishap. But what shocked me the most was what happened after we left her room to continue with the party. The young man standing at the bottom of the stairs while looking at Zelma with a heated gaze was hard to ignore. I was too familiar with that gaze because, the first time Lucien
Chapter 80 Camilla POV… After settling Pete and the pack, I finally felt that a few loads have been taken off my shoulders. I did not have to worry about the pack anymore. As for my last statement, I did not say it on a whim but it is what I felt inside. It has only been a few months since Matilda was exposed and Pete chased them out of the pack. Although the changes were subtle, I could tell that he has given his all to keep this pack. So, instead of making him be beta for the rest of his life, why not make him an alpha. I was also confident that he will never betray me or the pack, so my mind was at ease. “Done with your thing?” Lucien asked the moment I entered the room that used to be my bedroom. It has been a long time since I came to this room. Ever since my rank in the pack dropped to the bottom of the pit, everything was taken away from me. I also know that this room was revamped but I did not expect that after taking over the pack, Pete will redecorate is as it used to b
Chapter 123 (THE END)!!Jared POV…With the pregnancy news, the wedding preparations began.Actually, I had already started preparing one year ago when Zelma told me that she wanted to see the fields in South America and ride the horses. It was one of the places she wanted to visit and she wished that we could our wedding there.The preparations were in the last stage and it was done after one month.I had not planned to hold our wedding in such a hurry but because she was pregnant, we had to do it when it was still convenient, or else it would be hard for her to move around in the later stages of the pregnancy.Camilla was already heavily pregnant but she insisted on tagging along. There was nothing we could do about it.On the day itself…The weather was very sunny, just perfect for an outdoor wedding. Lucien was my best man and I was sitting on my chair nervously, listening to his nagging. I was about to marry the only woman who could make my heart race and blood boil, how could I
Chapter 122Jared POV…I have never felt this bad. It was only thirty minutes but I felt that I have been waiting for eternity. When the doctor finally lifted his head, I rushed over without hesitation. "Doctor Smith, what is wrong with her?" I inquired. I was so nervous that I held my breath for a moment."Young master, don't be nervous, nothing is wrong with the young mistress." The doctor and I looked at him as if he was joking.Nothing wrong with her? Then why would she be puking her guts out?"Are you a sure doctor? Earlier she…!""I am sure. She is totally fine, just a little exhausted. As for her vomiting, I think that she might be expectant." The doctor said and I felt my heart stop beating for a moment."What did you… what did you just say? Expe what?""Young master, I said that young mistress might expectant. The hormones in her body trigger the vomiting, which is a common occurrence when one is pregnant.""Are sure about that?" My head was buzzing with different sounds and
Chapter 121 Zelma POV… The huge dining table was filled with all kinds of dishes. From seafood to western cuisine. It was simply a feast to a foodie like me.On the huge table was Damon, Jared's father, sitting at the main seat. On his left was his wife Sara, who was Jared's mom, and my mother-in-law. The one next to him was her sister, Jared's aunt, and some other core members of the pack.On Damon's side, Jared sat next to his father and I naturally took the seat beside him. Camilla was sitting beside me and next to her was try them Lucien came last. It was a family gathering so, everyone at the table was an important member of this family."You did well tonight." Jared's mom said as she looked at me with a gentle smile."Thank you, mom." I lowered my head and said in a shy voice. I was not used to calling her mom yet, especially in front of so many people, so it sounded a little unnatural."Good, good girl. Let us eat before the food gets ready. Everyone has been busy the who
Chapter 120 Zelma POV… After seeing my sister, I was much more relieved and my tensed heart finally relaxed.I knew that Jared's parents were doing what was best for us and they will never do anything to harm me but regardless I was still considered new to this place. Having a familiar face around was the only thing that I needed."You guys talk but don't take too long. Zelma, you have to finish your makeup, the party will be starting soon." Jared said. I looked at him with grateful eyes as he dragged everyone outside the room, leaving only me and my sister.The moment I heard the door close from outside, I immediately threw myself at my sister without caring about anything."Sis, thank you for coming," I spoke, letting my tears flow freely on her shoulder. If someone asked me why I was crying, I would surely have nothing to say. I just wanted the moment I saw my sister enter the room. Maybe just missed her too much."It is okay. You need to be careful." My sister said, caressing
Chapter 119Jared POV…It was great that this little girl had graduated. We could finally go home and start our life. I have been with her for more than two months, from the time she started preparing her exams to the time she graduated. I left the pack matters to my father and I have never felt so relaxed in my life.My mother had been nagging for a long time so we had no choice but to take the next flight out of the city the moment the graduation ceremony ended.I wanted to celebrate with her but my mother said that they have organized everything so, we could only go back.It was not far from school to my home and we took approximately one hour on the plane. The driver was already waiting when we landed so we went home directly.“Why do I feel so nervous.” Zelma said and I looked at her.“Why are you feeling nervous? It is not like it is your first day going home!” I spoke.“I don’t know why I am feeling that way. My heart is just a little nervous.”“Just be yourself. You know how m
Chapter 118Zelma POV…I was busy with exams and graduation and before I realized it, one month had gone by in flash.I was sitting in the graduation square with Jared and other grandaunts. He had already graduated a year ago and he was just here accompany me.“I can’t believe that I am actually graduating. It feels like yesterday when I remember the first time I set foot in this school.” I lamented as I looked at my excited classmates. I had been here from primary to high school and now I was graduating.It was a little hard to part with people that I have known for years and I felt a sense of nostalgia, just thinking about how I will not be able to see them again.“I was only a little girl when I joined this school, but look at me, all grown up and about to receive my graduation certificate.” I spoke, looking at Jared who was sitting beside me with a calm look on his face.“Did you feel this excited when you were graduating last year?”“What was there to feel excited about? It was s
Chapter 117Lucien POV…After venting, I felt much better. But after looking at her eyes that were filled with guilty, I felt that I have done something wrong.Why would I reprimand her? I loved her so much that even seeing her frown made my heart hurt. wouldn’t I have just given in one last time. I know that she did not mean it but I could not keep my displeasure this time round.I have been looking forward to this day and I had not even gotten time to give her the surprise that I had prepared for her before it got ruined. I was just in a bad mood, and felt pretty bad about it.Seeing her throw herself at me and apologize, my anger dissolved to nothing. I have already pampered her to this stage, who else could I blame? I guess that I will just have to get used to it.I was about to say something when I heard her ask if she could make it up for it. I swallowed the words that I wanted to say swiftly and I looked at her in anticipation. I never imagined that she would be able to reflect
Chapter 116 Camilla POV… Hearing that my darling son missed me, I did not even have the zeal to travel the world anymore. I just wanted to fly to his side right at that moment.The next morning, I looked at Lucien who was all gloomy as we went to board our private plane. He did not seem very willing to go back, but what could I do when my heart had already flown to where my son was. I could not just say no to him when he already acted so cute."What's up?" I asked. He had been looking outside the car window on our way to the airport, not uttering even a single word."It's nothing." He said in a glum voice. He was clearly throwing a tantrum although he did not want to admit it."You look unhappy. Is it because our honeymoon was interrupted?""It is nothing." Seeing that he was not willing to talk about it, I stopped asking....The flight was very comfortable and we soon reached city N. When we arrived home, I immediately went to find my son for a hug without caring about anything.
Chapter 115Lucien POV…Having finally heard her say yes I do and seeing her bearing my family heirloom on her slender finger, I could finally firmly believe that she is mine, for life! It has been quite hectic ever since we met, a lot of things happening, but we could finally relax and enjoy a few days of happiness on our honeymoon.“What are you staring at?” I asked Camilla who was looking outside the window. It was already the morning of the following day and the weather was really great.“I can’t believe that we are officially husband and wife already,” she said. I had just come from the shower so I walked over while drying my hair.“I thought that you had already gotten used to the title already,” I said calmly, casually throwing the wet towel on the sofa in the room.“Yeah, but it still kind of feels different. I am now bearing your mark. Although it is not some kind of tattoo or something, it still symbolizes that we belong to each other.”“Did you want a tattoo?” I inquired.
