Chapter 77 The next step

NIA’S POV

“What the fuck is wrong with you, Ezra? I have been calling for ages, and you haven't answered my calls. There is Nia, too, who wouldn't respond to my texts or calls. She shouldn't have hung up on me when Gemma came to meet her. Is she okay, or must I wear a bloody mourning dress? But before that, you had better barricade that entire pack, or else I will raze it down while I haunt Gemma's fucking ass down!” Perry rambled on in one breath.

Ezra slammed his head against the car seat. “You also know about her meeting with Gemma? Trouble has been on the rise since then, Perry.”

“What? Where is Nia? Where is she?” She yelled.

“She is here. Say something, Nia.” Ezra urged.

I couldn't form a sentence. Everything seems to be happening so fast, and my chance of understanding it seems to pass off every second. “I am sorry,” I whispered.

Perry scoffed loudly into the receiver. “why are you sorry, baby? Talk to me, Ezra; what's going on?”

    Chapter 78 The CombatGAEL’S POVI groaned as I tried to move my cramped body from the cold floor. It took me a few minutes to get where I was. I hissed in contempt when I realized I was lying on the floor of Nia's room. I winced in pain as I attempted to stand up while resting on my hand. In my rage last night, I smashed everything in the clinic.I cut myself deeply. Still, that didn't stop me from burning up the entire greenhouse and only for my pitiful self to return here and cry helplessly. I am trying hard not to believe Nia would hurt me like that. But the more I try to be in denial, the more the image fills my head, reminding me that it did happen and I wasn't hallucinating.A proof of it is my wounded palm, the ashes of the greenhouse, and the ruins of the clinic. Crawling to the table where a bottle of whiskey sat pretty, I poured myself a glass and downed it in one go. It burned my chest painfully. I didn't mind it. The one I experienced yesterday is worse than this one righ

    Chapter 79 No EvidenceAUTHOR’S POVGemma giggled to herself as she made her way into the house. The plan worked beyond her expectations. She didn't think Gael would fall back into her arms so quickly. It goes to show how fickle his love for Nia must have been. She was probably just a new flame that wouldn't have taken long for it to burn out. But then, he had the intention of proposing to her. At first, Gemma had been worried that he might be lenient with Nia when he saw her in bed with Zac because of how crazy in love he seemed to be with her. It made her so happy that Gael was returning to his usual self.All through last night, she couldn't get a wink of sleep due to how excited she was. She would have chosen to wait out her visit to Gael, but then she heard about his furious burning of Nia's greenhouse. That was her cue to strike the rod when it was still very well hot. Humming a tune to herself, she hopped into the house. Gemma halted in her steps abruptly when Ezra stood in her

Even though it was on speaker, she still seemed to be having difficulty hearing because she kept mumbling curses.Ezra kissed his teeth on the other end. “I am so pissed right now. I confronted Gemma, and she affirmed it to my face. I am mostly disappointed in Gael; it hasn't even been twenty-four hours, and he already moved on with her. Forgive me for saying this to you, Nia. But it is best to forget about the Sunset pack and move on with your life. You deserve better than this. Trying to love a damaged person like Gael was a complete waste of time. He and Gemma deserve each other.”“I am taking a flight to the pack this minute!” Perry uttered.I sighed, feeling exhausted. “You will do no such thing. Do you intend to go beat Gemma up and then end up behind bars? There is no need for us to bring ourselves so low.“I sincerely appreciate your help, Ezra. I am so sorry for the inconvenience.

Before She headed out this morning to make a painting delivery, Perry told me a guest was coming over and instructed that I make whoever it was feel at home. I thought it might be one of the new friends she made. Only for the doorbell to ring, and I found Kingston by the door smiling at me. I didn't know she had his contact. She must have searched through my phone because I can't remember giving her the contact.“Can I come in?” He asked.I snapped out of my thoughts, flushing in embarrassment. “Oh, pardon me, please. I am so sorry. Please come in. What would you like to drink? I wasn't expecting to see you. I don't know what you might like.” I rambled nonstop.Kingston chuckled and halted the continuous talk. “since when were you ever uncomfortable in my presence? Can you quit acting up and sit with me?

No matter how much I try to get the thoughts of my present condition out of my mind, it keeps haunting me. On mornings like this, Gael would sleep soundly next to me. Things have changed now, and I wake up in my bed alone.Every day, I stare at my phone, hoping he would send me a text or put a call through after realizing his mistake. As much as I wished for it, I know it wastes time. He had already made up his mind and wouldn't attempt to communicate. I have never felt this way towards anyone before. The mere thought of him makes my heart ache. I wondered why we became close in the first place if we would end like this. The humiliation stuck to my body like glue.I must admit to Perry and Kingston's kindness. Both of them make me feel like I have nothing to worry about.

When I sat up, my backbones made a crack. My body feels like that of an aging werewolf. For the past three weeks, all I have indulged in is drinking and snapping at anyone who dared to speak to my face. It irritates me more that Ezra chose to keep his distance from me; he only mentions something when it is about the pack.It is the maximum time we have spent not talking to each other, which is why I have also made up my mind to toss him aside. Gemma is the only one who has stayed true to me.Sometimes, the thought of Nia comes to mind, but I have refused to let that get to me. She isn't relevant, and I don't care about wherever she might be. I know that Ezra must have helped her out and that alone is enough to charge Ezra for treason. I am only being professional by not mixing the matters of the pack

Even though he would never admit it, she can tell that many things around remind Gael of Nia. It's her delight that he attempts to destroy everything that does so. But then, it's becoming more of a menace.The only time Gael pays her attention is when he intends to have sex, just like before. The difference between now and then is that he no longer has concubines. However, she would have preferred if he had his concubines around.Just a few days ago, she caught him having an orgy in his study. It was so disgusting to see, and he was dead drunk. Despite everything, she must keep her head up and not forget the goal. Clearing her throat, Gemma plastered a smile and walked towards him. She kept her relaxed demeanor expression on; that seems to be the catch for Gael lately.“Is everything okay, Gael?” She asked in a low tone.Gael turned to her, st

I wasn't sure how I would feel about it if we saw someone. But I found myself getting anxious from the moment Kingston told me he was on it.Now Kingston helped find them; I feel scared that they might not want me. No one wanted me as a werewolf. What reason do the humans have to accept me? I know they are family, but people can be peculiar.The sound of my phone ringing jolted me out of my reverie. I smiled weakly at the caller ID. “Hey, Kingston.”“Hey, you too.” He replied in a laughing tone. “Why do I feel like you are still staring at the letter instead of opening it?"I glanced around the room to be sure he wasn't there. “How do you know?”“I know you quite well, Nia. Also, I got a notification they delivered it. In that envelope, there are copies of your father's educational certificates and pictures

I haven't been sleeping well for days, and just when I thought I would get the best of sleep today, I got dragged out of bed without my consent."I thought you said the place is not far from us. Why are we driving out of New Haven?" I asked Perry, who was seated next to me in the car. "Moreover, why did Grandma and Aunt Kylia go before us when we could have just gone together."Perry shrugged, staring at her phone. "They didn't want to disrupt your siesta."I snorted, "You disrupted it.” I retorted rudely.“Really Nia? Is that what we deserve for wanting to make you feel better?"I blinked guiltily. "I didn't mean to sound like that.""It's fine." She muttered, turning her face away from me.I sighed tiredly, knowing I hadn't been on my best behavior lately, and it was all because I couldn't seem to get a grip on

I dusted off the invisible dirt on my trousers and held her gaze shyly. I have never been this tongue-tied in front of a lady before. Nia has a way of pulling so many unfamiliar emotions inside me. She looked impatient, eyes darted everywhere, refusing to focus on me."I am sure you heard me the first time. What do you think you are doing showing up every day and making everyone uncomfortable?" She questioned.I played with the tail of my hair and swallowed in discomfort. What the hell is wrong with me? I have rehearsed many things to say to her with my wolf, and I felt confident until two minutes ago that I knew how to bring her back to me. I tried to open my mouth, but everything seemed stuck in my throat.Nia scoffed with a glint of disappointment, "What was I expecting? Now that you have seen

The first person I saw was Nia, and I thought I was dreaming until I grabbed her hand, and it turned out to be true. She had yanked my hand off her and warned me never to touch her again. I did as told and kept my hands to myself.Ezra informed me that she had saved me from the clutches of death when she could have refused. I will forever be grateful for that. But I can't seem to wrap my head around that he agreed for us to leave the minute I could move around by myself. It is the sixth day of us being here, according to him, and we will go today. I don't think I am ready to do that just yet.The door opened, and for a second, I thought it was Nia. It was Ezra; to my disappointment, since the day I had held her hand, a lovely old lady had been the only one attending to me. Nia must be avoiding me at all costs. I don't b

    Chapter 102 The Holistic CenterNIA’S POVMy breath hitched as I stared at the phone, and I tossed it aside. It felt like it had spikes all over it. When Ezra mentioned Gael, all that I could think of was that night that he laid his hand on me and had me pushed out of the pack half-naked. I placed a hand on my belly and held the couch tightly with the other one as I tried hard to catch my breath. Catelyn rushed towards me hurriedly and ordered someone to bring me a glass of water while she rubbed my back slowly. "Calm down. Calm down." She repeated while lifting the glass of water to my mouth. "What in the world just happened? You were chatting happily on the phone, who was it? What did they tell you? You know what, I think you need some fresh air. Someone help me." Catelyn said, helping me up with two other maids.The moment the evening breeze hit me, I felt a bit better. I leaned carefully on the bench I sat on. I inhaled and exhaled slowly. I didn't realize how much effect the r

    Chapter 101 The CallAUTHOR’S POV"How is that even possible? Aren't you supposed to be concerned about caring for him first!" Ezra bellowed into the phone receiver angrily before ending the call. "What the hell?" He yelled. Ezekiel exchanged a glance with Omega Harold and exhaled slowly. "Calm your nerves, Ezra. You won't sort this out if you keep getting angry at everyone you speak to." He gasped for breath, scrubbing his face roughly. "What do you expect me to do, uncle? It's been two weeks since he has been lying there and unmoving, and his body is beginning to peel and redden at the same time. How is it that none of the medics will check on him? Not even the damned doctors who get paid huge bucks of money can come through." He lamented. Gael's fall during the pack council meeting had escalated into something more severe than expected. They all thought he must have been exhausted from too much drinking and not having enough food inside of him. However, when he became conscious,

I still can't believe that I ruined a good thing all by myself. I was considering how hard it was to give in to my feelings. I should have calmed down. Nia must hate me right now, wherever she is. At least I am rest assured that she got out of here safely.I had razed the greenhouse to the ground. All of Nia’s hard work over the months of being the healer, my anger, brought them all to waste. Not only did I accuse her of something she didn't do. I cheated on her again. I was the one who mocked our relationship. Nia has never shown any sign that she was going to disappoint me. How did I not see that? I miss her every day. Before I learned the truth, any reminder of her only made me angry, and with a few fucks here and there coupled with limitless alcohol consumption. I get over it all.But now, the pain is so evide

It's been a while since he had such childish moments to himself that it makes him feel free again. Most importantly, he was feeling very proud after coming across some posts of his sister and her artworks making waves around the world.Ezra feels glad she was stubborn enough to follow through with her dreams and not listen to him, who was only venting from a place of emotions.Standing by the foot of the stairs with his back turned, he held his phone, scrolling through it to dial Nia. Just then, Ezekiel and Daniella rushed down the stairs together, and it seemed they were arguing. Ezra stood still on the spot, not wanting to get himself involved."You can't do this, Ezekiel. No matter what she did, she is still our daughter, and now she is pregnant. We need to help her." Daniella wept.Ezekiel yanked off her hand. "Don't touch me.

Instead, she picked up a dagger and aimed for his heart directly without mercy, shattering it to pieces and leaving no remnants behind. For the past few weeks, he tried to forget about her and mind his own business. But the rumors kept reaching him, and he realized it would be stupid of him not to do anything to reform the situation.

I sniffed, feeling my swollen eyes. "Kingston is like that. I knew that was bound to happen, so I insisted he didn’t know. There was a time when his younger sister had bullied his intended girlfriend in high school. Kingston felt so bad that he kept apologizing for years until the girl left the pack for college. Do you think he would come back to me?" Her face fell, "I would be stupid to reassure you on something like that. If Kingston is like anything you have described, then I doubt you will see him around anytime soon." "I think I have his house address and that of his workplace. I will leave early tomorrow to go find him." "No, don't do that
