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
ALEXISI am furious—completely and absolutely livid. You would think I would be used to it by now, but somehow, I manage to get angry and hurt every time.I saunter toward the bar in the dinner hall we currently are and flash a strained smile at the middle-aged bartender who has become my only friend in this little palace in a corner of the world, he is the same person who works the bar on the ground floor which I have found myself frequenting more than usual.He walks over to my side, smiles, but pauses when he sees my face."Eve again?" Eve is my co-worker at FunDeets, a fin-tech company which creates programs and applications that help other companies monitor their financial growth and indices. She is a sales representative just like me but she is nothing like me! We came for a conference together in an exotic resort on one of the cut off islands just off the west coast. The conference is one with a bunch of financial moguls and an award ceremony at the end of it. In the last few
MAXThe phone ringing jostles me out of my dreamless sleep. I grab it in a bid to turn it off, but stop when I see it’s a call from Luke. Luke is my business partner and Alpha of the Rising moon pack. I am the alpha of the BlackRock. Our packs however share a boundary and we jointly share the position of the largest pack on the coast. We both concluded when we took over from our feuding fathers that there was no need for fights and agreed on maintaining peace, so as much as possible, everyone stays in their territory. He is however my closest friend.The conference we came for was a bid to strengthen werewolf companies with human resources. Some of them create the best products. It is however also a yearly meeting of Alphas on the west coast.It is still a surprise to have him calling me at an ungodly hour. I pick the call without saying a word, rubbing my forehead as I turn over in bed“Maxwell”“Luke,” I respond“The other Alphas were wondering why they didn’t see the Alpha king at
EVEI hurried up and concluded my task in the office so I can go to the lingerie store to get something sexy for myself, I was feeling a bit stiff, so I decided to visit the bathroom and freshen up a bit.As I walked to the bathroom, I caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror. My hair was a bit messy, but I didn't care. I was feeling too good to worry about it. I combed my hair and splashed some cold water on my face, feeling the water droplets run down my cheeks.The lingerie store was only a few blocks away, so I decided to walk. As I walked, I could feel the sun on my skin, and the breeze in my hair. It was such a beautiful day. When I got to the store, I took a deep breath and walked inside.The store was filled with rows and rows of beautiful lingerie, from lacy bras to silky panties. I walked up and down the aisles, admiring the different colors and styles. I picked up a few things to try on, feeling the fabrics against my skin. I was in lingerie heaven.As I browse through the
LUKEI observed Max with a heavy heart as he struggled to control his racing thoughts. I told him earlier about Eve, she would be coming over to my place today with her red headed friend, hoping that he is able to confirm she is indeed his mate. I knew it was difficult for him to accept the fact that he had no recollection of the woman he had slept with the previous night. It was clear that his mind was consumed by a mix of anxiety and frustration.As I pondered how to help Max, I couldn't help but feel a sense of helplessness. I knew that his problems were not something I could fix, but I still wanted to do something to help him feel better. So, I sat down next to him, trying to offer some comfort.Max's restless movements and his unsteady voice revealed how much he was struggling. He was a powerful alpha, one of the strongest I knew, but even he seemed powerless in the face of his current predicament. I watched as he clenched and unclenched his fists, trying to control his emotions
MAX’S POV I woke up with my mind heavy. This has become quite the usual for me every since that strange night with the strange lady. I can’t stop thinking about her. Coupled with this great puzzle was the fishy amnesia I had about the events of the night. Who would dare to use Midnight Loom on me? Then there was May. May was beautiful, smart, averagely intelligent but frankly speaking boring. It took me a while to even touch her and even then, it was uninteresting and uneventful. I felt sympathy towards her and I really wanted to let her go but she was my Chosen Mate and my pack wouldn’t let me off the hook again this time without being with someone. I sat up from my bed and buried my head in my hands. My mind wandered to that strange event over a month ago as I tried to piece together my memories. I remember clearly going to the venue of the party, meeting up with Luke and then drinking from the glass Penelope handed to me and then waking up naked in my hotel room. Then my room had
The little girl, Jaime walked away from the butterfly towards her mother and then stopped abruptly to stare at me. The woman too shifted her gaze to me. I knew my time of secret observation was over so, I walked up to them both. “A good afternoon to you, Mrs Rhodes,” I paused and then stared at Jaime the added, “Miss Rhodes, my name is Maxwell Moon and I am Mr Rhodes’ lunch guest today.”The woman eyes lit up in recognition as she said, “It’s nice to meet you, Mr Moon. Can I call you Max? Do come in.” The warmth and friendliness in her voice made me know that it wasn’t just John Rhodes who had his kindness. “Can I call you Max too?” Jaime said looking up at me. I got a good look of her upclose and immediately got nostalgia. It felt like I had seen her somewhere before. I bent to my knees and was able to stare at Jaime closer. I said, “Yes, you can if you allow me call you Jam-jam.”Jaime’s face contorted in a large smile. I took in her facial features and tried to remember where I’
I woke the next morning to my alarm clock blaring and my head pounding like someone was hammering down my temples. Hannah was glaring down at me, fully dressed with my arms crossed. I stared around a few minutes, a bit disoriented. I tried to open my mouth to speak but I felt weak to my bones. I tried to speak again and instead began to cough. I sat up quickly still coughing. Hannah went away and reappeared with a glass of water which she handed to me. She sat beside me and patted my back as I drank the water. I emptied the cup in my stomach surprised at how thirsty I was. I wiped my brow and my hands were slick with sweat. I stared at my clothes a bit confused, the air condition was on yet I was sweating.Hannah cleared her throat. She had a serious look on her face, the kind she always assumed when she wanted to say something she felt I might not like. “You have to see a doctor Lexi and you’re calling in sick at work today.”I said, “No, I have tons of things to do at the office.

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,
