Darren’s POV “I’m Al…” I began, but he stopped them short by asking, “are you really going to answer that question like an omega? Laying at my feet?”. His words hit home hard and almost felt like he was taunting me, if he knew the relationship I had with his daughter, then he was just being nice…with pain surging through my veins, I slowly stood to my feet. “I am the Alpha of the shadow pack.” I said, but his face gave no emotions making me gulp wondering what he was thinking, could it be that he really didn’t know me with that introduction of mine, or he didn’t know the whereabouts of his daughter for the past six years? “I’m Darren Thane… The alpha of the shadow park.” I said again before stretching out my hand in hopes for a handshake, but he glared at my outstretched hands, making me put them down amidst an embarrassed chuckle. If I were him too, I wouldn’t exchange a shake with a man who looked like me and worst still couldn’t take the blows his guards had given me. His eyes
Darren’s POV I felt so helpless and at the same time angry at myself, the look in her eyes while she walked out made my heart cry. It made me wonder as I was dragged out the extent to which I had hurt Zora, memories started flooding my closed eyes and I winced. The guards dragged me out showed no mercy and made sure my roughed-up and aching body kissed the floor a couple of numbers of times…enough to hurt. Thankfully, rather than just throwing me out, I was thrown into the back seat of my car and the Gamma personally offered to drive me back to my pack as a sign of respect, even though I knew that it just wasn’t that. There was a catch to it, as I lay in the back seat I slipped in and out of consciousness. “You seem sorry and that is one of the reasons why I had offered to take you back, but I must say, you are in no condition to take the alpha princess back” he suddenly began speaking. “Another reason why I agreed to take your sorry ass out of there was because of the princess”
Miranda's POV “Michael mentioned it the day you signed the contract” He said before moving to sit down. “Is this really necessary?” He asked before ruffling his hair as though he were in deep thought. He then stood up, “like for you to go to the training camp? I mean, I don't really think this is a necessity.” He said and walked closer to me, he got his hands on my cheeks. “I have all you'll ever need, money? Wealth? Fame? Protection? Goo…” I cut him off. “I think that's enough dad, and I am not questioning your ability to provide me with basic amenities, and honestly, I thought you would understand me better than this” I pulled off his hands and turned my back against him. “I know you have all there is to keep me protected but that day you weren't there and if only I had training just like I could…maybe we wouldn't have derailed, I don't blame you for anything but I…” I halted and turned back to him. “I'll never get myself, my happiness and the hope I once had.” I said. “W…wha
Miranda's POV “Would you mind having a cup of tea with me?” He asked cheerfully. “I don't seem to understand why you called me here, Dad,” I said instead feigning being angry. He chuckled and said, “When you were much younger, this was a very common trait of yours” “What!” “Well you were done of doing what you are doing now, and I thought you had grown out of it, but it seems indeed bad habits die hard” “Sit down, I don't like to see you standing as I forced you here” I walked across the room, and sat opposite him before flashing him a fake smile, “Happy now?” The laptop on his table dinged, and he flashed me a brief smile before typing away, when he was done, he closed his laptop and finally got his attention to me. “About what you requested yesterday?” He said. A smile appeared on my face immediately, was it really what I thought he was talking about? “Yes, it is,” Emerald said in a voice that showed she was as excited as I was, my face lit up in excitement. “I apologize
Darren's POVThe best way I had learned to handle Vivian was with my silence because hard words ould strengthen her.Harsh words would have been better to handle her now regardless of what ever she wanted to do.But I rather not say a word, I needed no one to know the contemptuous and resentful feelings I had towards Vivian, love was the last thing I had for her."I need my Beta." I said and just then Carl walked as though I had mind linked him."Greetings Alpha." He said and walked closer to me."You seem much better now, you scared everyone" He's aid amidst soft chuckles making me smile."I never got to say thank you so much for saving me before falling unconscious." I said as he nodded."It is my duty Alpha." He said with a bow.My recovery didn't take long after and I ordered to be taken home, after losing my father hospitals never made me feel at ease.I was finally discharged and I had recovered completely, Rudolph was now active and responsive.Paul offered me a ride home, he wa
Darren’s POV Mom let out a gasp in surprise and it looked so much like she couldn’t believe what I was saying before shaking her head, laughing at what I had said a though I had cracked a joke. “This must be a joke right?” she voiced out staring up at me but I gave her no response, there was no need answering her. She let out another gasp before her facial expressions became changing, “what does she have over you? What dark force is she using on my son?” she muttered to herself while Vivian just stood staring at me with her hands in akimbo. If glares could bore holes, I would have been dead by now. “How can you love someone that had killed your dad?” she asked making me chuckle. “is that what helps you sleep at night?” I taunted, “Mom, you and I know what had happened that day; trust me you don’t a third person finding out. She moved back in surprise at what I had uttered, even Vivian ended up sending a sharp glance to me but I honestly didn’t care. I owed them nothing! "I can’t
Darren's POV “What do you supposedly mean by that statement of yours?” she asked angrily making me smirk, “trust me you don’t want me to get started on this”. “No I do Alpha Darren” She said interrupted, “what is there to ay again huh? What else do you think you would say that I can’t take?” she asked, not smiling at all. “What exactly do you have to say, Alpha Darren?” it sounded like a dare but I could see her holding back her tears just like always, “I would just have to find out what have I ever done to you to deserve this?” "The way I see it, you had always been at the sideline doing a perfect job in poisoning me and my mom but one person that got past that defense was my dad and It made me realize that he must have threatened you with something that made you go abroad and only return after asserting your hold in my pack behind my back even though I was with you” “What do you mean by all this?” she asked with tears starting to drop down. “You fucking poisoned mom's heart aga
Darren's POVWeird sensations filled me up as I thought of what he said, “what did you just say?” I asked him but I tuned out of his response almost immediately as his mouth opened to speak. My mind had recalled the dream that haunted me on the day I had been beaten up to unconsciousness, it didn’t seem like a dream though but rather too real. I shut my eyes and I saw it one more time, she was close to by bed but seemed so far away and for whatever reason she was happy. “Miranda!” I had remembered screaming at her figure but she paid no heed to my screams as though she wasn’t hearing it. It almost seemed like she had come to say goodbye. I watched as she slowly she moved far away from my line of sight and just before she could fade out, she finally acknowledged my calling by turning and then with a sad smile she waved goodbye. "No Miranda, don’t go…you can't leave again." I remember screaming in my subconscious state. Still eyes shut, my mind flew back to the present and I mutter
EPILOGUEFEW YEARS LATER."Happy five years anniversary!!" The light went on as the balloons went off, I covered my ears as I was allergic to the sounds of popping balloons.Flowers were thrown on the floor for the both of us to walk on as I and Darren walked through it to seat on our royal chair as Luna and Alpha.The whole pack were celebrating in Harmony as they brought different kinds of gifts for us."C'mon kiss her son." My father said as Darren took my chin and kissed me romantically, they all clapped and yelled in excitement as I shyed away.Jason stood Infront of us. "I Jason, am responsible for what happens to these beautiful couples as you all would hold me responsible if anything goes wrong in their marital relationship." He said a crazy oath that made everyone to laugh. "And thereby I'll be collecting daily marriage allowances." He added making everyone laughing out loud."You know I'll give you even a million." Darren added as we engaged in another round of laughter."It
Author's POVAfter the threats that Vivian gave Miranda and she overheard them talking about kidnapping her son, she was left with no other option than to leave the mansion with her son.Probably this was what she would have done rather than calling Jason to come help her, and now she was behind the reasons why he was no more.Whenever she remembered the lifeless body laying there on the floor then she blames herself because she knew that if she hadn't involved him in all this then he would have still been alive.All of this was her fault and she had no one else to blame other than herself.After hours of driving she finally reached the mansion of her father as she was granted access into the mansion.

Miranda's POVI was thinking that I would fall to the ground due to the force used to push me, but lucky enough I fell in the arms of someone familiar.From his scent I could tell that it was someone familiar more like someone I know personally."Why did you push her?" He asked as I took my gaze to meet with his, and I was surprised to see that it was none other than him, it was my bestie, the only human that has always stood by me without asking for anything in return.I was dazed when I saw him, I never thought that he would respond so quickly."Jason!" I muttered with so much excitement. "It's you." I said and checked him to make sure that it was truly him, and indeed it was him, flesh and hearty.He was looking as strong as ever. "It's truly you." I muttered as I hugged him so tightly."How are you." He asked as I said nothing."I can see that you're not fine and there's no need for me to ask of your wellbeing." He said as I released a sad smile.He then took his gaze to Darren. I
Author's POVAfter the incident with Theodore. Miranda was unable to investigate who hired them.Carl kept on instigating her that it was Alessandro that did it, but then Miranda was skeptical about this and then asked Carl how he knew about it.Carl simply said that it was his instincts telling him. That it was only the both of them, and probably Alessandro had some grudge against his friend.But that didn't convince Miranda, she couldn't just assume things, and regardless of the fact that, that was what Carl thought, it wasn't what she thought and so she had asked Carl to stop the accusations.Miranda rather took her speculations on Vivian. She was the one who threatened Theodore.She could remember when he was dragging her out of the mansion, she had said it with her mouth.She heard it loud and clear, and she wasn't mistaken to begin with."I'll deal with you Theodore." The thoughts played over and over again on her head.Although she asked Alessandro if he knew the men or had a c
Miranda's POV.I heard the voice of Alessandro some distance, and I could tell that everything wasn't okay. It was more like he was in danger of some sort.I could feel it in my wolf's instinct.Without having to wait for them to come closer I immediately ran out of the mansion, to go check what what's happening."What's happening Luna?" Carl who I had almost bumped on asked.I took my gaze at him. "What's happening?" He asked."I feel everything isn't okay, I can hear the voice of Alessandro from a distance, he was screaming out." I explained to Carl."Screaming out as in how? Can you elaborate?" He asked."I don't know I can't explain the way I am feeling right now but I can tell that something is really not right." I explained.Carl places a hand on my shoulders. "Can I tell you something?" He asked and I nodded."You don't have to feel this way okay you're just insecure and overthinking things because of what is happening, but I assure you that there's nothing happening." He replie
Author's POVDarren moved his gaze to her. "You're pregnant.." He began."That doesn't matter Darren, that shouldn't be an excuse for you to deny me of sex, you're my husband." She complained."I know that we're married according to you, but then I can't still have sex with you" Darren said to her."But why?" She asked in a broken tune."That is because you're pregnant, it isn't right to have sex with a pregnant woman, and you're not going to force me to do what is against my wish and principle." He warned.Vivian was annoyed and was now glaring at him. She was horny and wanted only Darren she wanted to also make a sex video of them having sex together so she could use it as her proof to show to Miranda.She intended to do this so she'll get extremely mad, this were are intentions; to get Miranda sad and heartbroken.But now Darren was acting stubborn and this pissed the hell out of her.She would have had something to torment her with."I have to make this happen." She muttered to h
Author's POV "Miranda." A voice called as she turned her gaze to the direction of the voice, then she got to realize that it was Elena."What are you crying again?" She asked as she took a seat closer to her."I have told you to stop this? I had told you that crying wouldn't solve anything but you don't always listen to me, you're just fond of doing what you like." Elena scolded."Why won't I cry when everything doesn't seem to be okay, how can I be happy when I have lost my husband?" She asked."Lost your husband how explain to me Miranda let me understand you properly, how did you lose Darren?" She asked."How do I start explaining this? All this while I thought that maybe the relationship between the both of us was finally going somewhere, not to realize that I was only fooling myself." Miranda replied in a low and sad tune."I don't understand why the hell are you sounding this way? What has come over you? What happened, did Darren do something to you?" Elena asked in confusion.
Author's POV "Tell me Darren, did you fucking had sex with her or not?" Miranda asked tears flowing down her eyes as she held him by the collar.Darren was confused as he stared at her in surprise, he didn't understand what was going on."What the hell are you talking about? What has come over you?" He asked."You have come over me, how can you betray our love in such a way huh? How can you have sex as a married man? Don't you know that's a sin In the sight of the moon goddess, it's an abomination to be precised." She yelled."So if he should have sex with his wife it has become an abomination, but having sex with his secretary isn't right?" Vivian asked as Miranda took her gaze to her."And you evil woman, you still have the guts to talk rubbish right?" Miranda asked in anger as she ran to her ready to smack her across the face.She was able to meet up with her cheeks as she wasted no time in smacking her across the cheeks, and that was when Darren held her down."Let me beat this w
