SAMANTHA'S POV
Every day after Manuel had asked me to move in with him with the kids,he had been avoiding me.I wasn't sure if it was because I had refused or because there was something else bothering him.
I knew Sanatrir was still at large after escaping from their custody.I suspected that was why he had been avoiding me but I knew that I was just been paranoid.
I swerved towards the next Intersection and continued my drive back home.After a long day at work,I was really looking forward to enjoying sorm rest time.
I frowned when a black van cut through traffic and swerved right in front of me.I had to pull the brake just in time to avoid hitting the insolent and reckless car.I swallowed the urge to go to give the reckless driver a piece of my mind.
"What is wrong with dri
MANUEL'S POVI was still reeling from trying to think of ways to make Samantha accept my proposal when I had received a call that said that Samantha had been attacked.I had bolted out the door as fast as I could and got nto my car.I had to get to her and make sure that she was okay.And I had to get to the bottom of this.I needed to find the bastard that kept looking for her.And fortunately for him,I wouldn't kill him to her beacuse Samanatha was Okay.But What I saw a as a befitting punishment was endless torment.I would detain them until their trial even If it was a human court trial.As soon as I got home,I enveloped her in my arms and soothed her unable to understand why she wasn't shaken by the whole experience and why she was still calm after all this.She narrated h
SAMANTHA'S POVI blinked once,twice to confirm if I was still dreaming so if I heard it right.Manuel ahd just proposed to me while he was still inside me.At first i had been so livid by the fact that he was going back on the plan we had made.We had decided to wait before having any more kids but it seemed he wanted what he wanted.I screamed at the mere thought that he had poured his seed into me without a care in the world what might happen to the consequences."What are you saying?"I asked with a frown."That I want you to marry me"He ssid as he pulled out of me.My body yearned for his attention.It protested that he wasn't in me anymore.But I had shoved those thoughts down and focused on the issue at hand.
MANUEL'S POVSo here I was reeling over the exciting decision that Samantha made after the long persuasion.I was headed to the pack house because Rdyer had some important news to share with me.He had been cryptic over the phone but I didnt mind that.Nothing could spoil my mood today."Valor is dead"Rdyer told me.I blinked once,twice to get the information processed in my head."What?"I finally spoke.He nodded."And the council have decided to pin his death on you."Rdyer added."That's absurd!"I exclaimed."That's what I said but they said he was on his way to meet with you beacuse he had found something that could help you g
SAMANTHA'S POVAs I looked around the wide expanse of the house,it all seemed foreign to me.Yes I had been here before but only at night.I hadn't been able to take in its beauty.But now,it was like I was seeing the place in a whole new light.The kids had settled in quite nicely and Martha had chosen to stay in the guest room which was a good idea beacuse she was closer to the kids there.After I had unpacked which I didnt need to because Manuel had had everything arranged with me clothes he had bought and held furnished my closet room with expensive things and attires.When Manuel had arrived I had been the happiest because after fight,I haven't spoken to him all day.He wasn't even at work today which meant that something was wrong and that something must be really bad.I
MANUEL'S POVNow with her permission I could do what I wanted.She paused, staring straight up at me,I felt my heart stop at that moment. I knew that this was the woman I wanted to be my Luna.I wanted to be with her forever."Do you trust me?"I whispered softly close to her lips.She nodded.I propped my body on her, settling my legs inbetween her thighs.She smiled as she felt my arousal across her belly."Manuel "She sighed.I brought my lips down on hers to still her sighs. My hands roamed the length of her body and she moaned into my mouth.My hand found the waistband of her pants,pulling it off her and down her legs.I parted her legs more to give way to my bod
SAMANTHA'S POV"Wake up sleepy head"I opened my eyes to see Manuel's face staring down at me with a huge grin on his face.He placed a soft kiss on my lips and pulled me gently up despite my protests.I groaned as I felt my body ache in every nook and cranny that I didn't think could hurt this much.Once I was seated with a pillow plopped behind my back,he pulled a tray from behind him and placed it in front of me.I stared up at him suspiciously."What's going on?"I asked.He shrugged his shoulders but said nothing.He only gestured towards the tray.I stared down at the struggling yet beautiful array of breakfast he had prepared,but what caught my attention was t
MANUEL'S POV"Manuel, the council wants to go ahead to name Santriras the new Alpha"Rdyer told me as we walked into the buildingMy head spun around to stare at him."What?!"He nodded."They just sent us an invitation to a coronation ceremony and am sure that it's been sent out to every important personality to our pack."He told me.I groaned."They always know how to push my buttons "I said."We're just waiting for your go ahead to crash their plans."Rdyer said handing me a black envelope that had the words 'coronation' scrawled beautifully onto it."This is absurd even for them.What's the purpose of doing this?!"I said in ou
SAMANTHA'S POV"Please do not turn us away,we need your help "The female voice said.Here I was seated before four werewolves that had come to talk to me.Manuel had not been back since this morning and imagine my surprise when I found them knocking on my door this late in the day.I had told the kids to go to their room so that we could talk privately. This was never what I had in mind for the direction of our conversation."Please our Alpha doesn't know about us being here but we're here on behalf of him.Please marry our Alpha. We really need your union to work.Uts the only way we can be made stronger."The beautiful blonde woman explained. I scoffed in disbelief. "Am sorry but I do not understand."I asked.One of the men beside her cleared his throat bringing our attention towards him."My lady,what she meant to say was that becoming our Luna would ensure that our Alpha's status would be preserved."The man spoke."That doesn't make any sense"I told him skeptically."But you
EPILOGUEOn the 24th of August,my beautiful daughter Ava was born.At the right time too."she's so lovely"Martha,my new mother said as tears welled up in her eyes."Isn't she?"Manuel said softly as he stretched out his hands to envelope the beautiful tiny creature in his hands."Daddy let me see,let me see!"Nova chirped jumping up and down just to get a good look of her baby sister."Yes!I finally have a sister.Thank you mummy!"she said excitedly.I laughed.Manuel planted a soft kiss on my forehead."You did great Samantha thank you for eveything.Thank you for coming into my life."He said softly settling in the chair beside my bed with the baby in his arms."She's so tiny dad"Dax said in disbelief.I laughed. "Yes she is darling."He responded."Its amazing. Were we really this tiny too when we were little?"Finn added. My heart filled with joy looking at my family. Martha stood at Manuel's side with the baby in her arms and a warm smile on her face.While my kids surro
SAMANTHA POVMy mind trailed back to all the seasons in our lives that seemed difficult that we never imagined we would scale through but we did.And I was eternally grateful to having the fate to meet Manuel in my life.He was indeed a blessing in my life.We had fought multiple times.***FLASHBACK***"There is no way that I will have a relationship in secret and I will never stand here and watch as other men sniff after what's mine"He told me grimly ."I'm not an object!"I shouted.He arched a brow at me."No matter what you do now,you can't take it back.You're mine"he stated matter of factly."You're not saying that you love me but that I need to stay with you forever "I said."You're mated to me now.No man would be foolish enough to come close to you not when you belong to me now."he said,pulling on his pants.I opened my mouth to speak but we were interrupted by the soft knock on the door."Mommy!"Nova's voice called out.I wrapped my robe tighter around my body.Walking
MANUEL'S POV We had come a long way.There was a lot of past behind us.I recalled all the moments I feared we wouldn't make it last. ***FLASHBACK*** How long will you keep up this act?"I asked. "Am sorry,what act?"She asked feigning innocence. I groaned in frustration. "You do not know what I went through there.They helped me and I couldn't just let your jealously get the best of you and have you laying baseless accusations against someone that had done absolutely nothing to you"I spoke. I watched as her expression changed with each word I spoke. "Jealousy? Baseless accusations?"she repeated. I groaned out. "You know that's not what I meant by that.I just..." She turned to walk away.My hand snaked out to grip her arm. "Manuel,let me go."She told me trying to struggle out of my grasp. "Don't walk away from me when am talking to you."I warned holding her tighter. "Manuel,let me go!"She cried. I saw tears pooled around her eyes as she struggled to break free. I dragged her
SAMANTHA'S POV Five months later..."Why would you say that?"I heard his voice say in a hushed whisper."Is mummy sleeping?"Nova said. "Look..Look..."Finn cried."Samantha?"Manuel spoke up "Doctor!she's awake!she's awake!"I heard him calling out.The first thing I noticed when I opened my eyes was the intense glare of the overhead lightning.I raised my hand to cover my eyes until my eyes adjusted to the light.When the doctor were done with their tests and my vitals were checked,I watched the relief on all their faces.From Micheal and a beautiful female who was glued to his side.I couldn't hide the smile that crept up on my face which he returned with a boyish grin.My kids ran up to me.And with Manuel's help I was able to get them all on my bed.I was seated with my unbelievably huge belly inbetween my thighs.I had been told that I was asleep for over five months and that there had been any sort of hope of me recovering. And that it was a Miracle that I had survived even
MANUEL'S POV One second.Two seconds passed but still nothing.My heart oundedbin my chest as I waited for the people to speak. The council looked smug on their table as they watched the tumult of emotions that passed through my face as I watched the crowd."Alpha Manuel!"Someone shouted from the crowd."Long live Alpha Manuel!"Another rose to cheer.And the rest stood chanting.Soon the room is filled with eruptions of cheers and claps as they chorused their answer. "Long live Alpha Manuel!"They chanted in harmony."Order!order this minute!"The speaker rose shouting at the top of his lungs until the rook went silent again."You have all made your choice and we have all taken it into consideration. But until we have reached a final consensus,Alpha Manuel will be stripped of the Alpha Position and his Beta Rdyer will resume duties in his place until the trial is finalised."the man declared.The room erupted in an uproar of angry emotions."How dare you!"I shouted stilling the
MANUEL'S POV "What is this Manuel?"I cried."Where have you been?!"He said through gritted teeth."What is that supposed to mean?Are you monitoring my whereabouts now?"I asked in disbelief."Just tell me where you were Dammit!"He said.I jerked backwards at his raised voiceHe took steps backwards pacing away from me,running a hand through his hair. "Why are you getting angry at me for?"She cried. "You ...you've been having an affair all this while and I didnt know.How couldn't I have known."I told her. Her mouth grew agape in feigned shock.I felt my blood boil mat the thought that she thought she could deceive me ."Where is all this coming from Manuel?"HShe asked.I couldn't let her know that it was Maeve because it wasn't. All Maeve did was comform a suspicion that I've had for the longest time."That's not important. What's important is the fact that you've been secretive,absent and distant for a while now"I told her.She raised her hand up in exasperation."Th
SAMANTHA'S POV "I don't think it would be easy to be able to find out the culprits"Steve said as he sat across from her sipping his coffee.We were seated in a coffee shop at the far end of town for a stakeout.We had found a recurring name in my mom's journal,Zain.My mom had described him as a nut-head that had wanted her mated to him.He had gone as far as going to her parents to get them arranged to be wed but she had blatantly turned him down stating that she loved my father who had appeared strategically in her life at the time.And after much difficulty they were wedded .On their wedding day he had barged into her dressing room and threatened her to leave with him but she had refused.He had vowed that day that their marriage wouldn't last and that if It wasn't him that no-one would have her and that she should bid her time well and that the click had already began ticking.He had been dragged out because he had refused their offer of being escorted out.It did sound like the
MANUEL'S POV "Why the hell did you not take care of this Manuel?You didn't even tell me?!"Rdyer scolded.I walked past him,pushing the door open to walk into my office as he trailed behind me."Everything that I did,I did for all of us."I responded settling back in my cushioned chair."But still...Manuel what the hell were you thinking?Did you really think that you were going to keep this a secret forever?"He chastised leaning closer."I was hoping that nobody found out about it.Thats why I dont understand how it was revealed and..."I explained. "...And you know that no matter what truce you may have called with the council,they were going to flick around this piece of information like vultures prey looking for their next dead meat"Rdyer finished.He slammed his fist on the desk with a bang.Unfazed I stared at the dent that he had made on my furniture."Manuel it's not about you killing him.Everyone knew he deserved it but you had to know that eventually the truth would be rev
SAMANTHA'S POV"Manuel Wait!Stop!"I said moving my lips away from his,moving my head to the side.His hand gripped my jaw stilling my movement. "Samantha please let me.I love you.And I want to show you"he pleaded.I stared into his eyes watching his dark beautiful orbs glistening with desire. Desire for me.I nodded.He let out a sigh of relief,bringing his lips down towards my lips.Bringing his lips dangerously close to my lips,he nibbled on my lower lips waiting.The pain in my arm was forgotten as he pinned me closer to his body,bringing my belly closer to fill his need for me.I tried to side step him but wasn't successful, instead he lifted me up unto the desk, prying my thighs apart he slipped in between them wrapping my legs around his waist to cage me in.he growled impatiently slamming his lips unto mine.He rode my skirt higher up to reveal my red lace panties.His eyes lingered for a while before ripping them off."Manuel!"I exclaimed."I love the way you say my na
