Book 2Chapter 12

Chloe’s POV

I paced around the room, feeling the anxious energy churn inside me, every second dragging by. My mind was a whirlpool of questions, and none of them had answers. What kind of person sends those kinds of messages? Who would want to terrify me like this?

I waited patiently for the arrival of Liam who had gone to track down the number who had sent me the message.

Every hour, I’d glance at the window checking if I’d see Liam arriving but no he was nowhere to be found.

I slipped my finger inside my lips, bitting slowly anticipating the arrival of Liam, I hoped they were able to track down the person.

Suddenly I heard footsteps coming closer, I rushed to the door but before I could get there, the door swung open revealing Liam, his expression hardened and frustrated.

The moment our eyes met, I could sense he wasn’t here with reassuring words. My heart sank, but I needed to know what he’d found.

“Liam, did you track the calls? The messages?” I asked, practi

  • Alpha's Regret: Howling For A Second Chance   Book 2 Chapter 13

    Book 2 Chapter 13Liam’s POV The evening draped over the house like a heavy, oppressive weight, I looked down at Chloe lying beside me, and I felt a pang of guilt settle in my chest. Her face was swollen and puffy from hours of crying, it reminded me of just how much she was suffering, and it was a suffering I felt responsible for. The fear, the torment she was going through, it was tearing her apart.I brushed a hand over her hair, feeling the anxiety on my shoulders as I tried to keep myself steady. Watching her fall apart today had shaken me more than I wanted to admit. She’d always been strong, and resilient. But this, this was different. The threats had gotten under her skin. And no matter how much I tried to tell her I was going to protect her, I could see that part of her believed she was on her own.I couldn’t just sit here and do nothing, I had to find something to do, even if I had to risk my life, I didn’t mind as long as I was able to put an end to this threat.

    Book 2Chapter 14 Liam’s POV I pulled into the driveway, and the sight of both Mr. Daniel and Scott waiting by the front entrance gave me pause. I hadn’t expected either of them to be here, let alone together, and the fact they’d waited outside rather than coming inside was enough to put me on edge.I parked the car and stepped out, greeting them with a wary nod. “Evening,” I said, looking between the two men. “Didn’t think I’d see you both here tonight. Why didn’t you just come inside?”Scott met my gaze briefly before looking over at his father, who seemed tense like he was holding onto something heavy. Luke, who had walked out with me, looked like he was about to slip away, but Scott stopped him with a hand on his shoulder. “Stay, You’re a part of this, too.”That got my attention. My gaze shifted to Mr. Daniel, and he looked away for a moment like he was gathering himself. I knew him well enough to see he was stalling, and whatever he’d come to say wasn’t going to be easy to he

    Book 2 Chapter 15 Liam’s POV I turned on my heel, intending to leave cause I couldn't bear to listen to the rest of what he had to say, but Luke placed a firm hand on my shoulder before I could move a step, halting me. “My Alpha,” he said quietly, his gaze sharp, “I think you need to hear him out. There’s more.” Scott nodded, stepping forward. “Let him finish. There’s something else he hasn’t told us.”I hesitated, my body taut with frustration, but I took a slow breath and turned back around to face Chloe’s father. His face was worn, lined with worry and regret, yet something told me this wasn’t just a simple plea for forgiveness.He cleared his throat, eyes flicking nervously between me and Luke. “Until recently, Mendy had been visiting me regularly,” he began, his voice low, almost strained. “She kept showing up at my condo, claiming she just wanted to talk, to reconnect… At first, I thought she truly wanted to make amends.”Scott raised an eyebrow, clearly not buying it.

    Book 2 Chapter 16 Chloe’s POV I lay in my bed inside the room I shared with Liam, trying to fall asleep at least to let go of the memories that haunted me but no matter how hard I tried, sleep just wouldn’t come. I kept hearing Lucy’s voice in my head, telling me to talk to Liam, to tell him what I was feeling instead of bottling it up. But how? I know he’d understand every one of my bordered thoughts that I shared with him, but I find it hard to even say a word, he was also worried about the kids. After a while of thought and couldn’t lay my hand on a thing to do, the frustration of tossing and turning got the best of me. I threw on my robe, slipped into my slippers, and stride softly down the hall. A faint light was coming from the kids’ room. I wonder if the kid had slept without turning off the light. I walked toward the door and pushed it open only to find Liam sitting on the edge of the bed, watching our children sleep. His face softened in the glow of the nightli

    Book 2 Chapter 17 Liam’s POV The early morning sunlight filtered through the blinds as I got out of the bathroom, moving quietly so I wouldn’t disturb Chloe or wake her up from her sleep. I’d have loved her to follow me to the meeting I’m attending but seeing her sleeping peacefully eases me and I won’t want to cut her sleep short. Ever since I told her about her father’s betrayal, I’d sensed a shift in her, sometimes she found it hard to sleep peacefully and was always frightened even if a slight thing touched her. She was carrying a burden she hadn’t asked for, and it hurt me to see her worry so much. I finished dressing, and I turned back only to find Chloe already awake, sitting up in bed with a thoughtful expression on her face early in the morning. Her eyes met mine, and she pressed a fake smile just to cover up her thoughtful place but I knew something was wrong. “Hey good morning,” I said softly, walking over to her. “How was your night's rest?” I asked petting

    Book 2 Chapter 18 Liam’s POV I barely had time to process what was happening before my head started spinning and everything became double. I wanted to support my hand on the wall but I felt Liam's hand grabbing my hand and squeezing it with a silent plea to stay calm. His face is taut, his eyes flickering with a warning that makes my heart pound harder. Before I can ask what’s going on, I spot Mendy and Jax, striding over with smug smiles with a step of entitlement that makes my skin crawl. Mendy is all sultry confidence, her gaze trailing over me with a look that’s more disdainful than friendly. And Jax… he doesn’t even bother hiding the way he’s watching me, his eyes lingering on me like I’m some piece of meat he can’t wait to sink his teeth into. That alone makes me feel weak. “Chloe,” Mendy purrs, a mocking sweetness in her voice as she gives me a look up and down. “Lovely to see you.” The way she says it, the way her mouth curls up at the edges, makes it clear that she’s

    Book 2 Chapter 19 Chloe’s POV Chloe The party has barely started, and I already feel pushed to the fringes, like an outsider. It’s supposed to be a celebration, a chance for everyone to come together and show support. But somehow, it feels like I’m just a spectator, watching the crowd swarm around Mendy as if she’s the main attraction. She’s in her element, basking in the attention as a few of the Lunas gather around her, practically hanging on her every word. I catch snippets of their conversation, the way they lean in close, their expressions gleeful as they pepper her with questions. “How did you manage to snap up Alpha Jax?” one of them asks, her voice carrying just enough curiosity to sound genuine. Mendy’s laugh is light, almost too innocent. “Oh, you know,” she says, glancing over at me with a saccharine smile. “After my mate was… stolen, I had to make do with what was left.” The implication lands squarely on me, and I feel my stomach twist. I should ignore her, let her

The way she looks at me tells me that she’s furious with me, but there’s something else in her expression too. Fear? Maybe. Distrust? Probably. And I can’t blame her for it.“What was that all about?” I ask, forcing my voice to stay calm, even though the sight of Jax so close to her just moments ago makes my blood boil.She hesitates, crossing her arms tightly across her chest. “I don’t know. But this is all your fault,” she says finally, voice steely. “If you’d told me about Mendy and Jax sooner, maybe I’d be prepared. But instead, you chose to keep me in the dark.”“I was trying to protect you,” I take a step closer, hoping she’ll see how much I regret the decision. “I thought…..”“It’s okay!” She cuts me off with a sharp look, her eyes blazing. “Don’t, Liam.

    Chapter 65. Chloe's POV. "It has been revealed that there was something in his food." My heart skipped a bit that the revelation because this was completely beyond what I was expecting in any shape or form. My eyes were focused on what was more necessary than just waiting for answers My wolf package hard time believe it that it was probably just poison. It's substance was not mentioned and that was a huge red flag on its own. Someone had to explain to me in layman's term why the autopsy results didn't reveal anything favorable. There were a lot of things to think about but one of the things that stood out for me was the way the scientist switched carefully while staring at me. This was an explanation that could not be done without and I was expecting more. Scott glanced at me as though we shared the same sentence and he coughed. "Whatever way I know that we still need to talk." He said. The living room was plunged into greater silence as we waited for the answers to be m

    Chapter 64. Chloe's POV.Awaiting the autopsy was not even a great idea. All that Chloe thought about was to make her father get the justice he deserved. The insane amount of mishaps that had come into her life the past few days was not to be reckoned with, and she felt like there had to be a means of tackling this without feeling weak or weary from any angle. Her kids didn't even think that their actions had a long-lasting impact.She picked up my phone to call Scott, "what is happening." Liam was less concerned with what was happening, so she needed to get my answers myself. "I don't want you to think so much about everything that has been going on because it's not going to help either of us, but there is only one way that we can achieve our goals, which is by waiting for the result. Then I would know what to do." Scott said. Chloe didn't understand why he was wasting so much time confronting their sister when it was almost getting clear that her father had been murdered, prob

  • Alpha's Regret: Howling For A Second Chance   Chapter 63

    Chapter 63. Chloe's POV I was on my way to my father's room when I stopped halfway, taking a giant sneeze; I found out that the youngest for them wasn't something even important at all. Instead, it was only her next move. Evil when she's poked against, she's poked against close powerful. I could see the way things began to drum in a sarcastic manner. I believed that everything was going to work out for good, but at the same time, I needed to be as careful as I should. I stopped in front of his room and contemplated how my next statement was going to affect him. I needed new people to understand the mood of the population and abide by it, not those who are ready to change me at every cost. Without him clamoring to have some sort of land or power to himself it's made everyone appear in their natural state just to make it very relatable. "I have always had problems with you because of how decided to represent everything that you are and own." I heard someone's voice ringing

    Chapter 62. Chloe's POV. My heart pounded in my ribcage, trying to find out if my child was fine. Why hadn't Lia called me if there was an issue? She was the only person that I trusted too much to call me about what was happening. As soon as I headed into the room, I didn't understand what was going on at first but decided to take a deep breath just to see what was happening. I pushed the door open and so Aria hooked up with different drips running through her veins, looking pale. My heart skipped a bit as I rushed her to her side. Ignoring Liam, who was sitting beside her and looking at me as though I was the devil spawn, I looked at her and back at him. "What happened to her?" "You went away for so long and appeared out of nowhere to ask what happened to her. How interesting!" I shut my eyes in shock. This was absolutely not what I was looking for. I needed something very important, such as a damn reason why this was happening. "Apparently I think that you didn't he

    Chapter 61 Chloe's POV. Two days later, My knuckles hovered above my father's study as I waited for a minute before taking the initiative to walk in at his silence. My dad sat on the chair in front of me watching carefully, as I progressed towards where he was sitting and also looking carefully. "You are unhappy. I can feel it. Why is that?" I knew that if I opened my mouth to start speaking immediately I would burst into tears, uncontrollable ones at that. My eyes welled up with tears but I realized that for me to continue this way it was going to make me look even more weak. "I wanted to report certain things to you. I need you to call Mendy. She has been getting on my nerves for so long now and I would appreciate it if you called her to order. She isn't a lost cause yet until we agree that she is not worth it." I said, hoping that she had not come here to report before I did and render my testimony invalid. Gazing at me intently, my father finally spoke, "if she ha

    Chapter 60.Chloe's POV.I headed into the school with only one intention. To find answers."We should talk to Scott. He should be able to find answers for yours because that's the only way I would be free to do what I have in mind." Lia said, Without further ado, I headed to his office and realized that he was a little bit busier than I thought so I waited a bit."Hey! Is anything the matter?" He asked, a bit anxious just to find out why I had decided to call on him. 'I need to tell you something very important and I hope that we should be able to rub minds together. I have pondered on this for so long and still have not come up with an answer that is suitable." I started. His eyes widened slightly, looking at me for a minute. "May I know the reason for this discussion?" He asked while scanning the environment, his heart pumping visibly underneath his tight shirt. I had a lot of reservations when it came to opening up to people but I knew he was someone that I could trust and wou

    Chapter 59.Author's POV. Mendy looked ahead, relishing the fact that Liam was already on his way to her place. She could almost feel the taste of bitterness on my sister's lips as she bade the kids goodbye. Having no choice but to dance to her tune she watched happily. This was everything and more of what she wanted in her entire life and nothing was going to stop her from achieving everything that she should. Things were getting out of hand and it was only imperative that she found a means of nipping it in the bud. "Hi, how are you guys doing today?" She asked the kids as soon as they entered the class. Their mother had no right to come and confront her and that was her only saving grace. "Good morning, Miss Mendy, we missed you last night. My mom didn't allow us to come, she asked that we stay with her even though our dad didn't like it."Mendy heaved a sigh of relief, thinking about how great it would be if she was their mother.

"What's a great way of telling your friend that you have seen for a long time that you miss her," I responded sarcastically hoping that she kept her opinion still herself because they were not necessary at this point. "Yeah, right... I wanted to come knock some senses into you because you sound like you've been losing it for a while now." She whispered, inching towards me with a smile on her face. "I knew you, and I know that you have not been yourself for a very long time. It is my duty to come here and find out how I can be of help to you." I was a bit embarrassed but thankful that I had someone coming to check up on me, and I smiled. "I'm pretty sure that someone must have tipped you off." "Yeah, I'd be lying if I said someone didn't but that doesn't still change the fact that I might just have to be here to help you out with the situation." She was say

This was utterly preposterous because I couldn't even wrap my head around the fact that my daughter would turn against me so much and make me feel like a total failure!… "Who told you that trash?" I demanded from her. I wasn't going to allow her to get away with insulting me while I looked at her, hoping that she came to the knowledge of what was right. She had been influenced by someone, but it was my duty to find out who exactly. "That is not something you should be saying to your mother, especially when I have never done anything to warrant such replies and attitude for me, all of you!" I fired back at her. Her gaze rested on me but she didn't look remorseful. "Mommy I want to sleep for a while. We will be going over to her house later tonight so that she can prepare some more delicious meals like she promised for us." Aria said, walking away from me.
