AMELIA’S POVMy eyes fluttered open when I heard the shuffle of movements around me. Sure enough, I saw Millicent, Miley and Riley in the different parts of the room. I sat up and cleared my throat, which garnered me their attention.All three of them ran to my bedside with relief on their faces. I couldn’t help the smile that crawled over my lips as I said, “Did I have you worried?”“Not just us but the entire castle, ma’am.” Millicent said with her face brightened with joy. “Thank you guys.” I stared at them and saw that they were each holding some specific items. Millicent was holding a cloth hanger on which was hung a white dress; Miley was holding a brush; and Riley was holding a pair of white flats. I recognized all of those things as mine. “What’s going on? Why are you with those things?”They stared at one another, and I sensed their reluctance to explain to me what was going on. "Millicent? Miley? Riley? Please talk to me. What's going on?" I pressed.I swung my legs off t
MAX'S POVAmelia stood frozen and for a moment, I turned, knowing she was frazzled by the sight of Eve and Luke at the funeral, and I was livid too. Yet her stiffening was even more worrisome. I turned to stare at her face, and in that moment, I saw that her mouth was open as if to give a scream, yet she was eerily still. I tried to trace her line of sight, and I saw that she had seen Xavier in his coffin. Her gaze was fixed on him, unblinking.I began to feel her body shake and to salvage the situation, I pulled her into my arms and eveloped her in a hug. Before then, her eyes were flashing between green and grey. I couldn't risk her transforming in front of the crowd and losing control. I whispered to her ear, "Take a deep breath Amelia, take a deep breath. It's okay. It's okay."I felt her hand on my sides, clutching me tightly and her claws digging into my skin. It felt uncomfortable, but I kept whispering into her ears. I felt her relax and encircle me in a hug, too. I let her go
AMELIA'S POVI don't know for how long I sat by Xavier's grave. However, when I came to, it was well into the evening, and the sun was long on her journey to set. I turned around and saw my Mum standing behind me. I was stunned. Had she been standing all the while? I flew to my feet and towards her. "Mum!" I exclaimed, unable to conceal my shock.She smiled weakly at me, and I had to catch her from falling. All the standing had made her weak. "Oh mum!" That was all I could say. I held her in my hands and helped her as we began to walk back to the house. There was no one to call for help or support at that moment; the entire grave side was deserted. "Why did you stay back, Mum? You could have gone like the others and thought you were standing too!"She shook her head. "No," Her words were a whisper, yet I could still hear them clearly. "I had to stay back and watch over you. It's my duty.""But now you've worn yourself out waiting!""This pain cannot be compared to the one I felt all
AMELIA'S POVThere was a man standing before me. He had beautiful blue eyes and beautiful brown hair. I knew his name; I knew him, but I couldn't remember or bring myself to remember. My body felt too heavy for me, and I couldn't process my environment or what had happened to me.This man with blue eyes carried me to the bathtub and washed my body with warm water. It eased the stinging scratches on my arms, legs and face. Then he carried me to the room, toweled my body dry, and wore a white night dress for me. He was taking care of me. I didn't know who he was, but I felt my body respond to him. As he combed my hair, I placed my hand around his waist, and I felt him tense under my touch. For some reason, I smiled. In one fluid motion, I pushed him to the bed and was lying atop him, pinning him under me with such strength that I couldn't imagine.His blue eyes went wild in shock. I smiled as I covered his mouth with mine. He didn't respond at first, but then I pushed deeper. Teasing h
AMELIA'S POV I woke up to the most pleasant feeling in my belly. Max's arms were around me, the moon was glowing beautifully in the sky with her light coming through the windows of Max's chambers. I laughed to myself. I had my chambers, but I had barely spent time in them since Max and I got married. Why did we even have separate rooms in the first place when we were two people who couldn't take their hands off one another?I sighed contentedly. Max was beside me; Max was mine. I rolled to my side to stare at him. His perfect features—from the perfectly sculpted nose to those cheekbones and that pretty and super kissable mouth—damn! My mind wandered to the places those mouths had kissed on my body in the last few hours, and I had to chase the thoughts out of my mind. No, Max and I had fooled around enough for that day. I mean, we'd spent all of the previous night and all of that day in bed and other places doing interesting things with one another's bodies. It was like the honeymoo
AMELIA'S POVIt was almost insane how I remembered the route to the Doctor's house. Yet somehow I did. That's one thing with the wolf's mind, it was intelligent. Before I could transform, I thought I was intelligent, but now after being able to transform, I realized that I was even more intelligent.The transformation had unlocked my supernatural werewolf abilities even more. I had a heightened sense of hearing, seeing, and smelling. Then, there was the accelerated healing because the scratches and what little injuries I'd obtained from my tussle with May Blackwater were all gone. Then there was the speed. I couldn't believe the neck breaking speed I'd moved lately.I had to admit, it was nice. I felt very invincible and powerful. I felt like I could take on anything and anyone. It made me realize why I'd earned looks of pity from my family when they'd realized that I couldn't transform. I'd been living below potential that time.The possibilities as a werewolf who could transform wer
AMELIA'S POVThe drive back to the Moon Castle happened with me in such a haze. I couldn't even remember actually driving, but I do know that somehow, one way or the other, I did drive back to the Moon Castle. All through the drive, I kept thinking about the news Gabrielle had just broken to me. It was unbelievable. My darling, darling, darling little baby had been murdered. My son has been poisoned. I got to the Moon Castle before dawn. I parked the vehicle across the lawn and sat in silence in it, watching the day break and the sunrise. I wondered who would do it. Who would hurt a little boy? Who would hurt a baby? Who would do something so unthinkable? Then I thought about how much pain my baby must have felt before he passed. My precious little baby. He was just a baby and he'd met his end in such a terrible, terrible way. It was unfair. It was unfair. I couldn't hold back myself as I bent over the steering wheel and began to sob. I cried until the tears wouldn't come again. I t
MAX'S POVThis must be the newlyweds bliss. It was interesting that after almost three months of being married, I and Amelia were still in that phase. Truthfully, I think we'd never leave that phase because I just couldn't get enough of Amelia every time. Her scent, her words, her eyes, her hair, her breath-stealing kisses, and her luscious body. I couldn't get enough of her just yet. We were both fully dressed after our lovemaking bout in the brook, but we were sitting side by side on the grass with our hands entwined and Amelia's head on my shoulders. "You know, at this rate, we'd be expecting another little one really soon."Amelia giggled. "I think so too, but I can't help it. It's impossible to keep my hands away from you."I laughed. "I find you irresistible too." It was amusing to watch Amelia grow in her passion. I remembered the blushing little virgin and her innocent little antics, yet here she was a mature woman who took what she wanted when she wanted it. Indeed, a true
AMELIA'S POVI sighed when I woke up; my eyes felt dizzy, and I cleaned my eyes.My eyes met the wall clock, and I froze.What the duck was the time, 11 am?Just now it was 5:30 pm. And I was getting ready to go to the party that was being held at the Liberty house, not after Max had come in and stretched my legs.. making them sore.I stood up, and although my legs felt like jelly, I managed to get up….walking out of the room.I went down the stairs, my eyes looking around for Max.He was seated on the couch with our babies.. in the crib and he was feeding them something from their little bottles."Baby," I called. "Was the party postponed to this evening?" I asked, walking to the couch."You walk beautifully, baby." He mumbled, winking at me."And oh, the party was held last night..you fainted, so you couldn't attend." He said with a serious face.I glared at him, anger rising to my throat.How fucking dare him?! He was the reason I didn't attend. I wanted to.He had fucked me last n
AMELIA'S POVA party was being held in the Liberty House.A week from now, and they'll be signing a peace pact with the hunters.I sighed, watching my little kids in their crib while I dressed for the partyThey were going to stay with Crystabelle at the party.The woman had made them her kids ever since they got back."Look how pretty your mama is; isn't she looking hot for mom today?" I asked, staring at my little peanuts."Oh please...not now; I'm shy when it comes to cameras; please don't..." I paused and chuckled. "or you can eat this shit instead." I leaned down and began to twerk my ass."Yeah! Eat this shit!" I caused twerking."Yeah, I can eat this shit whenever you want." I stilled. My eyes widened as I turned to watch Max leaning on the door.He looked so hot in that signature suit of his and his hair...Fuck! He was a Greek God. He looked smokingly hot as he watched me with those lustful eyes that said so many things.And one was to damn this party and pound me into the m
MAX'S POVThe remaining hunters began to leave, dropping their guns and ammunition as they vowed never to cross the border again.Luke was dead, and so was Analita and some of the wolves and hybrids created by Luke.I stood in front of the car, arms pressed together, as I watched Rick order the men about what to do concerning the ammunition."The war is over." He said, coming to stand beside me."I guess so," I said, a smile forming on my lips."There's nothing to be happy about yet." He said."Shut up, Rick!" I glared at him, as he held out his bandaged arm."Oh...I think it's time to go meet Amelia and fuck her to death. I'm sure she's probably jumping on her bed while carrying her little peanuts." Rick said."You're making me regret the fact of bandaging that arm for you," I said.My phone rang and I picked it up."Baby.""They're home. They were brought to the house as mail. They were mailed to the house." Her voice was brighter than the whole day. Even the sun couldn't compare."
LUKE'S POVMy Men and I surrounded the east part of where the hunters were hiding.Analita and her men surrounded the west, while Max and his men took both the south and the North.After the death of many of their men, the hunters had taken refuge in their mansion, and none was coming out.I signaled one of my men to go through the open door.Another followed, and another followed."We've gotten in, Max," I mumbled to the transducer that was attached to my ears."Okay, Analita will take the other side to go in, and then we will barge in if there's any problem." Based on what we've gone through, using guns on these people was better, but I couldn't wait to shred that animal to pieces.He had tried to convince Eve about betraying me and killing my child. Our child!"And one more thing, Luke. Follow the code; if we lose this change because of you, I'll kill you myself." Max said.I rolled my eyes, Ignoring his grunts as I stepped into the Mansion as well.A bullet flew past me and hit t
LUKE'S POVMy head was banging hard as I drove to the mansion.I had long suspected Eve using me, but I had brushed it off the moment I saw how helpless she was.She was dying, and she was carrying my child. Tears burned the back of my head, blocking my vision as I drove faster.. speeding up till there was nothing in sight.I pulled off at the front of the Mansion, throwing my keys to one of my men."Sir.""Yes?" I looked up, a scowl on my face, as I watched him cower."Talk right this instant!""Doctor Gabrielle came, and she's attending to Miss Eve right now. I was told to let you know about it."I nodded, hurrying inside.No matter how evil she was, I was not going to kill her. She was going to be my baby's mother. I hurried up the stairs, taking three steps at a time, until I was just in front of her door."Is there a problem, doctor?" I asked, looking around as my friend deepened.I didn't like that look at all."There's a problem with Miss Eve, I don't know what she took, but
MAX'S POVI wasn't seeing anything other than red.Red blood clouded my vision as I held onto my sword so tight.I watched my men as they began to prepare to leave for the war.My men at the forefront were doing good. A hundred hunters were dead at the moment, and I would not stop till I was sure my children were fine and brought home.FLASHBACK...I had gone home with Rick to get some things Amelia would use since she was asked to stay in the hospital by the nurses.When I arrived at the hospital, Amelia was asleep, and the children...my children were nowhere to be found.After I had successfully taken out the wolfsbane mixed with sedatives that had been injected into Amelia's body...she woke up."Are you back? I don't know what happened; I just fell asleep out of nowhere." She said, cleaning her face with her hand. Her eyes went to the crib, and she sighed."Who's with the kids? Is it Rick?" The question burned my whole body right into my heart and it was as if...I stopped breathing
AMELIA'S POVWhen I woke up, Max was by my side.He was holding a baby. The baby was very small and I blinked at them.Max holding the baby made me feel a lot more happy than I was supposed to be."Max," I called and he looked up instantly, a smile covering his face."Hey, beautiful.""Hi, Handsome." "See." He leaned down so I could see the baby. "Look at our little Creation." He mumbled.A smile broke off my lips as I stared at the beautiful baby in his arms."A boy and a girl?" I asked, and he nodded."They're so beautiful. Very beautiful." I said and he nodded."And they take after their mother." He said and dropped the baby in the crib."Thank you," I said, sincerely thankful for what he had done.He shook his head."That was nothing." He leaned down and kissed my nose. "Now I know how painful giving birth to a child is, especially an Alpha's kids." He chuckled."You felt it?""I took some of the pain. Of course, I felt it." He said.I felt so tired and sleepy, yet I wanted to be
AMELIA'S POVDon't fret when I tell you that I'm almost due. I was going to give birth to...not just one baby, but twins.Earlier when we had gone for some tests, the doctor convinced us to see our little cutie, but instead...we saw two cuties.I sighed when I brought down my legs from the table.I felt bloated. Like really extremely full.I felt something lick my feet, and I looked up to see Whitney rubbing me with her furs and licking my feet.The first day I arrived in the Homelands after visiting John and Grace and telling Max about our child...he had gotten me a dog, saying in times like these, having a dog was good.I couldn't deny that, because the little puppy that was growing rapidly had become my new friend whenever Max had gone to the office and Crystabelle wasn't coming."What is it, Whitney?" I asked, and it purred."No, stop doing that. I don't want to make chocolate now. I'm so tired, and there's no one here to make that." I whined to Whitney.Compared to humans, wolve
AMELIA'S POVMax's eyes widened, and he stared at me as if I were joking.He shifted until my back was against the table, and then his eyes went to my belly."You're pregnant?" He asked again."Yes, we're having a baby," I said.He chuckled, his eyes meeting mine as he lifted his hand and placed it on my belly."Yes," I said again, as if he didn't hear me. "You're going to be a dad." A deep growl left his throat as he met mine again."We're going to have this one," I said, holding his hand on my belly."We're going to hold this one alive and nothing is going to go wrong," I said.He nodded, like a little child that had been offered the best game in his life."Thank you." He mumbled, pressing a kiss on my cheek."Fuck! I'm going to be a dad. We're going to be parents." He said.I nodded, feeling him place thousands of kisses on my cheek.At this point, my cheek was going to catch fire due to how badly it was burning."Are you okay? You're not supposed to be in this position." He said,
