Naomi's POV After my discussion with Cassie that morning, I wasn't myself. I was pacing the length and breath of my room, trying to analyze my decision in my head. “Avenging Vanessa and saving Lily.” I said aloud, digging my hands into my head and tugging my hair. Those were the only reasons I could consider if I was going to return to the Raven Claw Pack. Alpha Baron's throne was the least of my problems. Thinking about this, gave me a sleepless night that I soon found myself becoming a shadow of myself. Cassie on her part wasn't even helping matters. She kept on pumping into me, reasons why I should return to the pack. It was frustrating and it was as if I was going to lose my sanity the next second. After dinner, a day after the mating ceremony between Alpha Baron and Raven, I found myself in my father's office. If asked, I had no idea how I came here but since I was here now, I have to speak up. “You don't look good.” Father said, staring intently at me. “I'm fi
Naomi's POV The more time I stood there, staring at Raven who was smiling like a maniac, the more angry I became. At this point, I felt like lunging at her and ripping her heart out of her chest with one strike. Right now, Vanessa's face was spiraling all over my head, making me grab the hem as my gown as I dug my fingers into my palm. There was no way I could explain what was going on right now and it irked me to the barest minimum. “Are you alright?” Raven asked, trying to touch me but I flinched, avoiding her like she was a plague. “Your official visitor from Dragonwood pack doesn't want to have anything to do with me. Seems like she hated me already when we hadn't even talked.” She muttered. “Wench!” I said in my head, glaring angrily at her. “Can we just wrap it up now?” Alpha Baron asked, his voice low. It was as if he was going to burst into tears the next minute. “Are we still going for a drink?” She asked. “Just me and her. She has to deliver her message quic
Alpha Baron's POVAfter listening to Naomi's tale, I had been trying not to believe her but I found myself doing so.I didn't want to believe her, not for any other reason but because Raven was my Luna and her presence here was nothing but a threat if her take turned out to be true.“Your highness, you need to grab some bites of these delicious cookies I made.” Raven said, cutting into my trail of thoughts.“I made a lot of them thinking that our guest would join in sharing with us but she seemed to be in a hurry.” She muttered.Setting the cup of coffee she had made before me, she said, “Did you two have a fight?” She asked but I didn't give her a response.Her smile and demeanor was in contrast to how someone who was capable of burying someone alive would.“She would make a good actress.” I muttered.“Really? And my father said I have poor acting skills. Thanks for believing in me.” She rapped, holding my hands but it quickly pulled away.To prevent further questions, I picked up my
Naomi POV With my hands folded behind my back, I was pacing the length and breadth of my bedroom, my lips lodged in between my teeth as I thought of the discussion I had with Lily. It seems she was more determined to put an end to Raven more than I was but there was little she could do about it. For more than three hours, we were in her living room, plotting on how to make our plan a reality but each step we took always bounced back to our faces. The whole thing was frustrating and at some point, I just wanted to return to Dragonwood pack, my home and forget about everything that had happened. If only I knew I was going to be confronted by Raven at the mating ceremony, I wouldn't have bothered leaving the confines of my pack. Tired of walking, I flopped on my bed and then buried my head in my palm. Shutting my eyes tightly as a million ideas spiraled through my head all at once. Taking in a deep breath, I dug my hand into my hair and then began to comb through it, trying
Naomi POV Staring at her as she winced in pain, I tried to assist her but my wolf wouldn't let me think properly. She kept asking me to let her be, saying that I already gave her a warning but she refused to pay head to it. Raven's wincing did nothing but to heighten my fears as I stared back at her. I had done exactly the same thing that I did to Alpha Baron back at my pack. Pursing my lips, I cranked my head to the side and after staring at her for a few minutes, I walked across the room and the moment I pulled the door open, Alpha Baron stuttered in. For a moment, I was taken aback because I wasn't expecting to see him here. “What are you doing here? I asked with a raised brow as I took in his features. He was wearing a look of worry and I wondered why. “I'm looking for Raven. Since I didn't see her in her room, I thought that both of you were having a little chit chat, that's why I'm here.” He rapped. Hearing Alpha Baron's voice Raven made a crackling sound and before
Reader's POV Knowing Raven was going to return to Naomi's room when she had healed from the injuries she had sustained, Alpha Baron had asked Beta Richard to look out for him. The moment Beta Richard got the hint that Raven could stand on her feet without any form of support, he quickly mindlinked Alpha Baron who in turn rose. “We need to put in another show.” He said to Naomi who was staring at him with a raised brow as she wondered what had happened. “Why is that?” She asked but instead of giving her a response, he grabbed her hand and then began to pull her out of the room. Naomi on the other hand already sensing what he wanted to do was struggling to pull herself from his grip and this continued until they got to where Raven was. Just like he had thought, she was going to return to Naomi's room and she was on her way when they accosted her. “Apologize now.” Alpha Baron snapped at Naomi who refused to say a word. She had her gaze buried to the ground as she fiddled wit
Alpha Baron's POV Sitting in my office, I began to review the conversation I had with Naomi about the rogues earlier. With the way she has spoken with confidence, I had no choice but to go with her words even though I still had my plans up my sleeves. “Sir, I think I have found the document that was switched.” Richard said, snapping me back to reality. “Really?” I asked, interest piqued as I pulled myself forward. Staring at him, he placed a brown file on my table and then flipped it open. Slowly, I began to look into each page trying to find out if the content was really important but I couldn't find anything and so I pushed it away. “I think the paper dropped off from another file.” I muttered as he pulled the file from the table. Heading towards the cabinet, he pushed it into the right place and then returned his gaze to me. Now sitting on the chair opposite me, he leaned forward and with his hands clasped as usual, he said, “What do you think about the clash with Naomi
Alpha Baron's POVStarting this morning with a council meeting was the least thing I wanted to do but I didn't have any choice, rather than to go for it.If it wasn't about the rogue's attack, there was absolutely nothing we wanted to deliberate about. More still, it seems the rogues have gone extinct, that didn't means I let my guard down and so I see no reason why a meeting was called this morning.At the moment, I was having breakfast with Raven and Naomi in the dining table. It was so quiet and at intervals, I could see Raven casting Naomi a glance accompanying it with a jeer.While I was with her the previous night before heading for bed, I wanted to interogate her about the event of several years ago by casually talking about her childhood but she began to feign tiredness and so I have no choice but to give up on the questioning but at the same time, my suspicion was heightened.“The wives of the Beta’s are meeting this morning, you have to join them.” I said, breaking the silen

It was all over the news and every paper. “Good morning.” Naomi greeted Alpha Baron with a smile on her face. Alpha Baron was leaving the pack today and it was a bit sad for her. She decided to make good use of the day. She rushed into the bathroom for her bath. Alpha Baron woke up tiredly. He was shocked to hear the shower turned on. He stood up from the bed and walked into the toilet. While he was in the toilet Naomi got out of the bathroom. She walked to the closet and dressed up, when she was done dressing up Alpha Baron walked out of the toilet.“Look who's all glammed up this early morning.” Alpha Baron said to her with a smile on his face.

Seeing that Alpha Barom was already there before I got there made him feel better. He took my call seriously. “Hey.” Alpha Baron said to me the moment I got to the restaurant. I couldn't reply to him because I was very pissed and I wanted him to see that I was mad at him. “Why did you and dad think you could make the decision for me ?” I asked him angrily. Alpha Baron looked shocked to hear what I said. He must be wondering how I found out and how pissed I was looking could also tell him that I was only taking the information seriously. “Why are you so mad? Please calm down, it's not that serious.” Alp

Writer povIt was getting dark and almost time for dinner. Isabelle was yet to step out of her room. She has made a decision as she’s not changing her mind about it. “Isabelle, it’s time for dinner.” Mrs Arthur said to her from outside the room hoping she would join them. At first Isabelle didn’t want to join them but for old time sake she stood up from the bed and walked out of the room. While she was walking downstairs her father raised his head and looked at her, their eyes met and he looked away.

Writer povIsabelle woke up tiredly after drinking too much last night. Struggling to stand up from the bed she placed her hand on her head because it was hurting badly. She struggled and finally stood up then she headed into the bathroom and sat in the bathtub with the shower on, she was still dressed as she sat there thinking about a lot. Her light suddenly turned off within a blink of an eye. Her life had turned upside down, she has now turned to a shadow of herself. There’s nowhere she goes to anymore because everyone in the pack makes mockery of her. Few days ago she stepped out to clear her head only to see a story teller, telling her story to little children. It was at that moment Isabelle realized how bad her situation was. “Isabelle.” Mrs Arthur called several times but no one was answering her and the shower was on. Mrs Arthur dropped the glass of water she was holding and rushed into the bathroom where she saw Isabelle drowning herself in the bathtub. “What is wrong wi
Alpha Baron povI went back to my seat and gulped the glass of wine. With my hands up the waiter rushed towards my direction. “More wine.” I said to him and he walked away immediately, I couldn’t believe what I heard, what Naomi’s father request for. Even if I accept, will Naomi be okay with my decision? Is she ready to take that risk just to be with me? The thought of her rejecting it made me feel sick. After a while I stood up from the bar and headed back to the hotel. I couldn’t go to the pack house because of my present state, I was completely wasted and if i got there looking like this Naomi would be disappointed in me. When I got to the hotel, I got out of the cab and slowly walked back to my room. I fell on the bed tiredly. “Oh no.” I muttered seeing how wasted I was.*********The next morning.I woke up with a banging headache. “Argggg.” I grumbled in pain as I was getting up from my bed. “It must be a hangover.” I muttered and gently stood up from the bed and walked int
Writer's povAlpha Baron headed back to the hotel and he couldn't get his mind off the conversation he had with Albert and how Albert sounded very sure of what he was saying.“I can't believe he looks down on me to such an extent.” Alpha Baron muttered as he sat on the bed.

Alpha Baron povAfter the meeting with Naomi’s family which was very unsuccessful, though I felt bad about it, I had to pretend to be fine so that Naomi doesn't feel some kind of way. I had to make her think I was fine with the way things played out.“Hey nan.” I said to Richard the moment Naomi walked out of my room.“How did it go?” Richard asked curiously. I looked towards the door to be sure Naomi was nowhere close to the room.“It was a disaster.” Richard was unhappy to hear what I said because it means things go the way we planned it to. I sighed and stood up from the bed. “I think her family wants her with Albert, sadly she's with my baby.” I said and we both laughed.“What family picks a body guard over an Alpha?” Richard asked angrily. I smiled when I heard Richard’s question because he doesn't know anything about the pack.“They have everything, status is nothing to them.” I answered Richard. Richard was quiet when he heard my reply because he was very aware of what I said t
