OLIVIA'S POV The case has been on for days now, two days to be precise. Rick has been sending letters upon letters, demanding to have me back. I grew scared because I knew my absence from Rick, and my presence with Raven was going to cause more harm than good."If this keeps going on, then it's time I should leave this place for good. I don't want my presence here to be the reason why you will have war against the Silver Stone Pack." I concluded.Raven looked at me with disbelief, shocked to hear what I had said. "Tell me you are joking." He asked me with all seriousness, trying to figure out if I was being serious or not."I am serious, Raven. It's me Rick wants and not you. And the only way to avoid whatever he is up to is to leave.""No you are not leaving." He said almost immediately. "I don't care what Rick is up to, and I am ready to face him however he wants it. But as far as I am concerned, you are remaining here with me." "Raven..." I tried to talk but he interrupted. "Not
RAVEN'S POV"Mate." My wolf growled the moment her eyes turned golden. "My mate has awoken." I was left shocked, my eyes widened in bewilderment. Had she been hiding the wolf in her for a long time? Or had it woken up just now out of anger?Everything felt like it was all in my imagination. I couldn't tell, but every second, Olivia kept surprising me. She kept doing things that made me love her the most. I had lost hope in her wolf, and I already made up my mind to keep living with that fact and not to pay much attention to it as long as I have her to myself.But then, she proved me wrong. She made me know she had that inner wolf in her that doesn't disappoint, and that made me smile within, knowing I wasn't alone after all. After Rick had gone, she ran up to the room to cry. I could tell from her that she was in pain, and it hurt me to see her cry. That was one thing for sure I hated, her tears were my weakness, and it pulled me down to nothing. I wanted to see her, I desperately w
OLIVIA'S POV I felt light weighted the moment he kissed me. It's as if everything is gone. My burdens, my pains, the haunting thoughts... every damn single thing, and I couldn't help but feel grateful for having him once again.He had to skip work today, spending it with the kids. I stood by the window, watching them play, watching them smile. And this was something Rick never did with the kids. I've never seen them this happy whenever he was around them, I've never seen them jump on him like they did to Raven.Sometimes I just ask myself if I've been living a fool of myself all those while. Trying to keep the kids away from their father and yet, nothing changed. Instead, they grew to love him even more. It's all like a dream to me, after a whole year, I never thought I'd come back to the man who once rejected me, now craving to have me.I never thought I'd one day conceive a child to talk of children for him. I never saw it happen that we'd end up being together as lovers, having gi
RAVEN'S POV"From my suggestion, I think it's time the Alpha King tells us his intentions concerning the issue at hand." I raised my eyebrows in confusion, staring at the elder who had said that."What issue is at hand?" I asked, my thoughts were mixed, trying to figure out what exactly he was talking about. Was he referring to the case with Rick and I? Or was there something else going on and I am not aware of it?They all exchanged glances, like whatever he was going to discuss had been discussed within them. "Will someone say something, or should I pretend like we never had this conversation?" My voice was a bit harsh."Don't take it too personal, sir." The elder apologized. "We only want to understand why the Alpha King has two women living under his roof. One who turned out to be his ex and another who is his wife, but then it seems that both women mean a lot to the Alpha King. So, we just want to know who our Luna is, and who isn't."I laughed. They would look at me and exchange
SOPHIA'S POVAfter making up my mind, I went to Raven's office. He was busy with the paperwork and immediately I walked in, he paused for a while, staring up at me with a small smile on his face. Then he asked me if there was a problem.I smiled at him, trying to make sure it was convincing enough for him to know that everything was really alright. I nodded, then replied. "Yes, everything is alright.""If you say so. Is there something you want to discuss?" He was being calm and over nice, like he used to when we newly got married. I was already missing those moments when Raven was the Raven I knew."Yes." I answered."Okay, I'm listening.""It's concerning my parents. My mom called, she said dad wasn't feeling fine and he's been in the hospital for two days now." I wasn't so good at lying, but this was just enough to get away from here and have my plans achieved."What's wrong with him?" He asked, his voice held a soft tone of concern. "Is it that serious?" I was close to ruining my
OLIVIA'S POV"Where is she going?" I asked as soon as he entered the house."She got a phone call from her mother, she said her father has been in the hospital for two days now." He answered, feeling a bit worried and concerned."You should have gone with her if you knew you'd be this concerned." I said, "I did want to, but she refused." I sounded sad.I raised an eyebrow. "Why?""It's concerning the issue going on between you and Rick. Leaving the pack will only give him access to have you, so she had to go alone.""Is that supposed to make me feel happy?" I crossed my arms on my chest. The Sophia I knew would never consider good for anyone, so there's definitely no way I could get my heart to trust her goodness."Well, I don't think she expected anyone to feel happy when she said that." I hummed. "I hope she'll be alright."I was a bit jealous of how he felt about her absence, but I coated it so he wouldn't notice. "You still love her, don't you?" He slowly raised his gaze at me.
SOPHIA'S POV We finally reached the Silver Stone Pack. The driver sadly looked at me but I ignored him. "Are you sure you really want to do this, ma'am?" He asked.I rolled my eyes. "Trying to talk me out of my decision now?" I questioned angrily."No, I was just...""Oh please, save your breath. I don't need your concern. And besides, try not to tell Raven about this or you'll be dying soon after he learns I was here."I won't doubt the fact that I felt a bit terrified and nervous at the same time. But I was so determined to meet Alpha Rick, I needed his help so urgently, I wouldn't sit back and watch Olivia steal him away from me.The guards stationed at the entrance halted me, with a dreadful look on their faces, they questioned. "Where do you think you're going?"Masking my fears, I confidently spoke. "I'm here to meet the Alpha King.""For what reason if we may ask?" One of them questioned."Whatever reason I am here for is meant for your Alpha King and him alone. Now, can you l
SOPHIA'S POV"Seriously?" The young lady yelled at Rick as soon as both of us walked in. "You're bringing in another woman to share our bed with?""Well, as you can see, that's exactly what I'm doing right now.""Why, Rick, why do you prefer to watch me hurt?" Tears formed in her eyes. "Olivia, now her? And here I was thinking you've changed, only to realize nothing about you has changed a bit.""I never said I have changed, neither did I ever think of changing. You left me, remember?""Left?" She scoffed. "I wouldn't have left if you hadn't sent me out. You were becoming so stupid and lost all because of her, and now you're trying to put the blame on me? To cover up your sin and make me look like the bad guy?" I could feel her pain while she said that."Besides, it's not like I'm taking her forever, it's just for tonight and she'll be leaving back to her home." He said, like it was easy to hear.I understood her pain, that was just exactly how I felt when Raven brought Olivia to our
