MAX’ POVI was by her bed side when Alexis finally woke up. She said to me, “A penny for your thoughts?”“You’re awake.” I helped her sit up but with my hand lingering on her arm. “You look very worried about something. Oh right! We went to Mum’s” she paused and looked a bit confused. She said, “Wait what happened? The last thing I remember was eating dinner and now I’m here.”I sighed. I had been debating on what to tell her. I knew it was the truth she deserved and I wanted to tell her badly but I found myself being cautious. How do I say to her that the woman who she thought the world of as her mother was only a deranged woman who’d adopted her from her real family and caused her not to function to her fullest capacity? How do I even tell about wolves? Or anything along those lines?It was a tight fix. I bit my lips and said, “You fell asleep. I spoke with your Mum and then brought you home.”“I fell asleep? During dinner? That’s very unlike me! I love my mum’s meals! Why would I
EVE’S POVI resumed work a new woman. I had wanted to ditch going back to work but Ezekiel wouldn’t have it. He wanted me to maintain my work. Alexis could show up any time any day. After the transformation worked, the baby had also survived even though I wasn’t sure if it was human or a wolf. I’d also gotten a new hair cut wanting to project a new image. I felt so sexy and powerful. My body felt light, like I had lost 20 kg in the last few days. I could hear conversations from far off better than the average ear and I could see, catch vision of other things. After work, I was going to see Luke to taunt him and put more of my personal plans into motion. Once I was done with work, I drove to Luke’s apartment. He didn’t answer the door at the first or second try. So I began to talk, “You know I do have a video of you in your werewolf form. Yes, with claws and your coloured eyes. Would you be interested in me releasing it to the world?”“No, you wouldn’t.”I laughed. Even from across
ALEXIS’ POVI still don’t know which hit deeper and left me with more thoughts, the revelation that my Mum wasn’t my mum or that I had a real family out there or that I was a wolf or Mum had used sorcery on me that locked in my wolf that I had a mate or the other things Max had explained to me. I couldn’t even process everything at once and truthfully, I didn’t know how to. It was too many revelations, and I didn’t even know which to believe yet. It sounded stranger than fiction but it explained the very many strange events that I have lived with all my life and always pondered about. I’d thought I was a freak due to my way with animals. The first time I showcased my ability in public, we were on a field trip and had just set up camp when insects and animals began to swamp around me. Everybody had run away from me and avoided me like a plague all through the school year, I had been labeled a freak. Thankfully, I had Hannah. I didn’t have many friends to hang out with, had great grad
MAX’ POVI decided to take her to the Rhodes for dinner. Alexis was right, she’d spent over two weeks being in the house and as much as it was large and nice and comfortable, it could be stifling. She needed to get some air. She wasn’t saying it yet but I knew she also wanted to go to work soon. Yet, I wasn’t ready to deal with it. I didn’t know if I wanted to let her that far from my watch. Sure, I’d left her all alone for the last two days to seal the deal with Bailey, hunt for her family and get some work done yet, I’d been in constant communication with the security head I’d left at home. I wasn’t stalking her but I needed to know she was fine. I’d given her intentional space too, staying away from her and not placing calls because I knew she needed to come to terms with what she’d found out. It was a lot to take in and I had to give it to her. She was handling it well, better than I expected; almost too well that it had me worried to be candid. However, I knew dinner with the R
MAX'S POVTheir scent was similar. It wasn't just the great resemblance between them but the scent was similar too. It had the same patterns to show that they were blood related. Jaime and Alexis were blood related. But how? I had been so shocked at their similarities and the scent that I had been unable to hide my feelings. Alexis had noticed and I found myself just trying not to alarm her so I dismissed it and tried to hide my facial expressions better.I had no doubt about it but Alexis was related to Jaime. We went into the house and Grace’s face lit up when she saw us. She walked up to us smiling and enveloped Alexis in a hug. “Hello Alexis, it’s so good to see you.”“It’s good to see you too Grace. Thank you for inviting me to your home again.”Grace smiled and left Alexis to exchange pleasantries with me. She smiled at me and exchanged a side hug with me while still fully holding Alexis’ arm. She said, “It’s good to see you again too Max.”“Me too, Grace.”She hooked both of
MAX’S POVI was on my way to the mental asylum I’d sent Bailey to with John on my tail. We’d both taken our separate cars but with me leading the way. I was nervous and excited all at once. I was like a little child who was about to unwrap a Christmas present. Yet, I was positive that I was correct, Alexis was related to John. On the outside, the mental asylum was like that of a regular one, with various human patients and doctors, yet the director was Dr Steve Grey, a werewolf who was a friend of my family. His father had been friends with my Grandfather. The hospital was founded by his father; a regular psychiatric hospital for humans on the inside but a psychiatric hospital for werewolves on the inside. It was located in a regular town and seemed pretty normal except not all the patients and doctors were human. I drove into the parking lot and found a suitable spot. John packed right beside me and got out too. I nodded at him and made my way into the hospital with him following m
EVE’S POVI sat beside Ezekiel in a bar. It was one of the most exquisite bars in town. That was the thing about Ezekiel, he always went all out whenever he took me out. It was always the coolest restaurants, the coolest bars, the coolest clubs, the coolest hotels even though he’d never share a room with me. Even after a few heated kisses, he hadn’t touched me. Still hadn’t had sex with me. Still hadn’t even gone beyond a kiss, nothing at all. It got me a bit agitated when I was around him. He clearly reeked sexual tension and I think he was attracted to me but the fact that he never went beyond a kiss was puzzling to me. I knew he was sexually active, I had seen a few women come out of his hotel room but not me. He hadn’t made a move on me. Was it that he didn’t find me attractive enough? Or was there something else in the picture? It made being with him annoying sometimes. I clearly wanted him and had done everything that I knew how to do to get him. I'd dressed provocatively, tou
MAX'S POVI drove Alexis to the morgue and we met the police there. The phone call had been made by the instigation of the police. Apparently, it was a murder case and the only clue was ALEXIS' phone number in the pocket of this lady. We were directed to the room where the bodies were kept. An attendant who identified herself as Matilda led us to the room. We were followed closely by the detective assigned to the case; he had introduced himself as Jonathan Myers. I kept glancing at Alexis to make sure she was okay. I couldn't take my hands off the small of her back either. It felt like she needed the extra support. Matilda walked to a body and uncovered the sheet for us to glance at the body. Alexis gasped and slowly began to back away from the body."Oh no! Oh no!" She said and then she crumbled to the floor and let out a piercing scream. I helped her up and held her as she buried her face in my jacket and began to sob uncontrollably. I was a bit confused but then I figured that t
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,
