LYRA.

I stared at Henry as though he had suddenly grown to heads hearing him say something as impossible.

Tears accumulated at the brim of my eyes staring at him unbelievably.

He held my hand seating me down just as a tear rolled down.

It can’t be.

“You’re lying to me” I sobbed out turning to finally stare at him burning my eyes into his in search of answers to what he had just told me.

But I could see was sincerity.

He was telling the truth after all.

I shake my head as more tears slip out of my eye, “I can’t be pregnant” I cried out rubbing on my belly.

It makes much more sense now, the constant mood swings, early morning sickness, and whatnot.

I was pregnant.

It's been four days since I had fled from the pack and I'm safe to say they were never going to find me.

I bumped into Henry, a sorcerer who had saved me on my way to the southern pack claiming that I was digging my own grave if I dared to go there.

I don't fully trust Henry for now but he wasn't as b

    SAGE. "Alpha there's still no news about her" Jason states his head hung low avoiding my stare. I sneered in utter annoyance, "You have one job, and is to keep her under your nose but you were too busy doing god knows what!" He thundered. I bolt up my jawline gritting. "I don't care how you do it, make sure you find her" I hiss walking out of the study room. Lyra must be daft to think she'd run away from me. Just when I thought I got her right where I wanted to but seemed to me that she's not as gullible as I think she is. I met with Damien by the entrance of the penthouse giving me a loom of pity one that he knew I found annoying yet it wasn't going to stop him. "Mum is looking for you, she's been trying to reach you," he says. I hissed feeling like throwing him a punch for such information. I'm not even surprised that the news had gotten to Mum. It's been three days since she left and no tracks of her. She left no hint behind not even her smell and it annoys me that

    Lyra The sun batted my face making my brows scrunch and my eyelids depart open. I growled feeling a sharp headache hit me hard making a growl slip from my lips. I manage to sit up leaning my back on the bed my stare roaming around the unfamiliar environment. I held it in my forehead feeling the sharp headache strike through. I bit on my lower lip trying to fight back the pain that I feel. Henry brought me here but then where is he? My stare roared around trying to spot his location yet to no avail. Sage's thought crossed my mind making me cry even harder than before. I'm sure the news of my disappearance reached him long before we left the area. Sometimes the way Sage keeps track of me, one could mistake it for care and protection when the truth is, that he didn't want me running away. Sage doesn't know how much damage he has caused. He led me on and let me think that there'd be something more between us is absurd. I don't know if I'll ever be able to forgive him as

    LYRA. "When Henry told me he had a guess he didn't mention she was this much beautiful" the elderly woman complimented with a warm smile plastered on her lips. I forced a tight-lipped smile as she drew me for a quick hug. I hear Henry growling, "Take it easy on her mother, don't scare her off," he says. My eyes widen in shock hearing him refer to her as mother. So she is his mother. "It's nice to meet you Raya," A girl around my age said standing beside the queen. I smiled back with a smile. "I'm Ashley, Henry's sister" she Introduced. The resemblance was uncanny, "Why don't you let me show her around?" She offers. Henry narrowed his stare at her, "She's not to be stressed, Ash--" She cuts off, "Come on brother, I can handle her. I promise to bring her home safely in one piece so chill out and trust me." I felt stuck in the middle. The warm stare the queen had on me made me feel a bit uneasy but it didn't make her as much uncomfortable. "Let them be Henry. Come with me,

    I slammed my fist onto the table, my eyes blazing with frustration. "Two years!" I spat, my voice venomous. "Two years and not a single sign of Lyra! What is wrong with all of you?" My pack members cowered. "Alpha, we're trying our best," one of them says. I laughed, a harsh, mocking sound. "Your best? Your best isn't good enough! Lyra is still out there, and god knows if she's in one shape!" I hissed, my anger boiling over. "I can't sleep, I can't eat. All I can think about is finding her, and you're all failing me!" I glared at them, my eyes burning with disappointment. "You're my pack. And you're all letting me down." I slumped back in my chair, my head in my hands. I'm a mess, I whispered, my voice cracking underneath my breath. I'm a mess, and it's all because of her. I don't know when it happened or how but Lyra has taken a part of me that not even Veronica. How didn't I not notice? She has always been the one. I should have trusted Mum when she had made her choice mayb

    I giggled as I struggled to put Ryan's tiny shirt over his squirming head. "Hold still, little one!" I teased, trying to catch his wandering hands.Ryan, my four-year-old bundle of energy, grinned mischievously. "No, Mommy! I want to dress myself!"I chuckled and let him try, watching as he attempted to put his arm through the sleeve. "Almost, baby! Just a little bit more..."It amazes me how enthusiastic and strong my kitten boy is. A slight smile danced on my lips as I adored his deep green orbs; they were just like his father's.The thought of his father has my heart squeezing in pain. As the years passed, not a day went by that I didn't think of him. I had let my guard down, something I never dreamt of doing, but I broke my limits for him, and in the end, I got nothing but betrayal.Ryan is my only source of joy; one look at him and you can see every feature of his father; the only features we share are his lip shape and hair texture, and aside from that, he is a carbon copy of

    Axel walked through the front door of his apartment, exhausted from the long day it had been. The martial arts session had completely drained the daylights out of him. He needed to get some rest, and part of him hoped that Raya was asleep, as he didn't have the energy to entertain any of her dramas, at least not today again. He knows she has so many unanswered questions, but when it is the right time, he will let her in on it, but for now, no. As he walked further into the house, his exhaustion quickly turned to shock. The room was in disarray—furniture overturned, vases shattered, and papers scattered everywhere. "Raya!" Axel called out, panic creeping into his voice. "Raya, where are you?" He rushed through the living room, eyes scanning the area for any sign of his wife. But she was nowhere to be found. His heart dropped as he let out a frustrating hiss, yelling out her name. "Raya, answer me!" Axel yelled, his panic turning to fear. He dashed into the bedroom, but it wa

    I stood before my mother-in-law, Luna, her piercing gaze trying to persuade me to return home with her. But how could I? After what Sage is to me.It's not even an option. I don't want to go back to my past. I want to move on completely and away from Sage or his family, but Luna is making it too hard for me."Lyra, dear, come home with me," she said, her voice laced with a gentle urgency. "We can work through this together, and I am not even asking you to return to him; we can settle for a divorce."My heart dropped at the mention of that. I don't exactly know how I felt after those words had left her mouth, but it sure didn't sound good to me.I hesitated, my heart still heavy with the wounds of Sage's betrayal. "I'm not sure, Aunt," I replied, my voice barely above a whisper. "I don't want my heart broken again," I say biting on my lower lip.My eyes were already beginning to sting at the mention of Sage. He was my past, and I wanted things to remain as they were now.My life with

    Lyra’s POV.I wiggled around the chair trying to get off the ropes that bound me with the chair, anger and fear cursing through me as I stared at Xavier's dark deep orbs that exuded venom and the smug smile that spread against his lips."Why are you doing this, Xavier?" I spat, firing my words at him like bullets.His smile grew wider. "You're just a pawn in a bigger game, Lyra. This is about Sage. Don’t worry princess, I may or may not hurt, so I won’t make any promises” I wagged against the ropes trying to get free from them even though my efforts were in vain yet I didn’t waver, “What does Sage have to do with this? And why would you result to violence for whatever this has to do with” His eyes gleamed with malice. “He needs to learn the hard way, I plan on taking everything from him, anything that ever brought him happiness must be eliminated” I gulped down a lump batting my eyelashes as my eyes stung in tears, “You’re sick Xavier! Sage won’t spare you if he ever gets a hold of

    I stood before my pack, my voice thundering through the walls."Twenty-four hours! That's how long Lyra's been gone. And what do I see? Nothing! No leads, no clues, no progress!" I roared.Goddamit!I should never have trusted anyone to pick her up. I should have done that myself.Part of me hoped that she didn’t leave me yet again. I thought we had sorted out our differences and now starting things afresh.What changed then?My gaze scoured the room, meeting the downcast eyes of my pack."Incompetence! That's what I'm surrounded by!"Jason stepped forward. "Alpha, we're doing everything we can—""Everything you can?" I roared, cutting him off. "If that were true, Lyra would be back here, safe and sound!"My fists clenched, nails digging into my palms. "I want results, not excuses!"Damien spoke up. "Sage, we've tracked every lead, every rumor. We've covered miles—""Miles? Miles mean nothing without Lyra!" My voice cracked with frustration.I paced, my eyes burning with anger and des

I paused asnmy heart dropped lifting up hurriedly, I came in contact with his stare.Memories of what happened last night came rushing back to me urging a growl that has him chuckling.My face carried a blush as my cheek heat up, hurridly hiding my face at the crool of his neck motrified.He burst into a fits of laughter holding onto my waist asbi cuddle deep into him, hiding from the embarrassment.“Stop” I mumbled.“If you keep doing that, I won’t be able to control myself anymore” he says making my brows furrow in confusion.“It won’t hurt to go for another round” he addsI chee on my lower lip the thought turning me on but I am still sour from last night, a good rest won’t hurt.I groaned, my embarrassment deepening."Last night was...unexpected," I stammered.Sage's fingers traced gentle patterns on my back.

    I measured out the sugar carefully so as not to miss the recipe "Lyra, you're lost in thought again," Angela said, nudging me with her elbow. I smiled sheepishly. "Sorry," I say trying to fight back the thoughts. Sage’s different behaviors have been getting to me these days. His efforts aren’t going unnoticed though I try as much as possible to make him believe that his actions weren’t getting to me or going to change my mind, I still stand to the fact that I won’t be giving us a chance. “What is wrong?” She questions with worry in her tune. I shrugged, “Nothing” trying to wave off the conversation but she wasn’t having it, it’s Angela after all. Letting out a sigh I paused my action on molding the dough, my shoulders sulking. “It’s Sage” Angela's expression turned curious. "What about him?" I cleared my throat proceeding to mix the dough. "He's been trying, Angela. Trying. But I'm not making it easy for him." Angela nodded thoughtfully. "You're still hurting Lyra,

    I collapsed onto the floor, my legs giving out on me as soon as the door clicked shut behind Sage. The sobs I'd been holding back erupted, shaking my entire body. Nyx, howled in sympathy making me cry even harder.How could he do this to me again? I thought I'd moved on, that I'd left the pain behind. But Sage's kiss had awakened something deep within me, something I couldn't ignore and I hated that.I didn’t want this for myself. My heart has already been broken once and I don’t want it to happen again. It’s breaking me.I wrapped my arms around my knees, rocking back and forth as tears streamed down my face. Why did I still feel this way? Why did my heart still race when he touched me?This isn’t supposed to be happening. He shouldn’t have this effect on me. Nyx's gentle nudges didn't calm me this time. My wolf sensed my pain, but even she couldn't soothe the storm raging inside me.I am left feeling conflicted and hurt. It saddens me that he feels as though he is still in contro

    I sat down on the edge of Sage's bed, my heart pounding loudly in my chest as I heard the door creak open, signaling Sage's arrival. Despite the turmoil of emotions inside me, I made a conscious effort to mask my face, trying to appear composed even though I was burning with discomfort. I don’t know if he is aware of my return but then I am sure his Wolf may have sensed it. I turned slightly away, my eyes fixed on a random spot on the floor, avoiding any direct eye contact with him as he entered the room. The tension between us was palpable, and I struggled to find the right words to break the uneasy silence but then again, I was the one wronged, so making an effort first is his go and not mine. “Lyra” he calls out his voice sounding foreign to my hearing, almost as though it was the first time he had ever called my name. The tingling was still there. “Thank you for coming back” he states urging me to stare right back at him and I hit him with a physically chang

    I sat alone in the room, Ryan's tiny hands wrapped around mine. His bright eyes sparkled as he chattered excitedly about his favorite cartoon."...and then, Mommy, Buzz Lightyear saved the day!" Ryan exclaimed.I forced a smile, my heart heavy with sadness. Knowing that I will be leaving him, the thought alone is frightening and suffocating.I have never been far away from him and the thought of that happening now wasn’t something that sat well with me.I trusted Luna and Henry to take care of my baby boy while I was away but I didn’t want to leave Ryan and couldn’t take him with me.The last thing I want is for Sage to find out about him even though it is his right as Ryan’s father, but no, he didn’t deserve any of us in his life. "I'm so proud of you, baby," I whispered, squeezing his hands.Ryan looked up at me with innocence and trust. "Mommy, what's wrong?" he asked, sensing my emotions.I quickly blinked away tears. "Nothing, sweetie. Mommy's just tired."Ryan nodded, accepting
