"No! No! Noooooooooo!" I jerked up from the bed in a hurry with beads of sweats falling from my forehead. I saw her in my dream, Emily.I stared at the other side of the bed and found out I was all alone. Tyler. I called in a hurry as I couldn't find him. I was suddenly scared of everything. I needed to be strong, but it was possible. Scared of being alone in the room, I rose up from the bed and rushed out of the room."Tyler? Tyler?" I called his name severally as I walked down the stairs, but there was no response. As I came down to the living room, I met him slouching on the longest couch with a bottle of alcohol on the table, a glass half filled with thr drink and Emily's picture lying right beside him.I was suddenly filled with anger and I rushed towards him. I grabbed the portrait from him and smashed it on the floor, angrily using my legs to step on it."What the fuck is wrong with you.?" I yelled."What are you doing?" He yelled back."I'm doing what I'm meant to do, Tyler. F
EMILY:As soon as the young lady walked away, I released the breath I had been holding the entire time. I was so relieved she didn't see me else I might just die for a second time.I slowly tiptoed towards the lifeless body of her friend and stared down at her..~What a cruel bitch.~I squatted towards her. "I'm so sorry you had to die this way, and I could do nothing, but next time, and in your next life, don't trust people. They only end up betraying you for another person in the end."I was telling that to myself as well. I slowly began pulling off her clothes. Her jeans pants were still good enough for me to wear, and her jean jacket wasn't too soaked in blood. After putting on the clothes that were still good enough, I wore her shoes and stared at myself.I wasn't looking quite bad. I started walking towards a direction I wasn't familiar with. My legs just kept moving and at some point, I wanted to stop walking but I couldn't.I had no money, not even a penny to get food or cloth
Christian:Her velvet eyes got me wondering if I had seen those eyes before. When I looked at her, I felt like she was also feeling the same with me. The pull was pretty strong, but I could definitely control it My eyes scanned her body and I felt my wolf and I undressing her already. I fluttered my brows and immediately looked away before she would even notice anything.Leo, my wolf was pretty naughty. He literally loves everything under skirt, and with the way I was feeling, it was obvious what he wanted me to do next was pretty impossible. When I looked at her eyes again, I had this feeling she was different and not like every other lady out there."I need your help. They're after me, please."I arch my brows, and took a step away from her. We suddenly heard noises around the bushes."Can you run?" I questioned her, and she nodded her head in response. I found myself holding her hand. "How fast are you?" She didn't reply. "Who are they?""I have no idea." She replied."3, run." I
EMILY:"Lay him down gently over here, make sure he doesn't strain his neck at all." I ordered a nurse. I didn't know why I was ordering her, but what I was more focused on was saving the man's life."I need blood, hurry.""We are not supposed to do anything until the head doctor arrives."I stared at all the nurses. "Are you fucking kidding me? We have a dying patient right here, and if we don't do anything, he's gonna die."My words were not strong enough to convince them, but then one of the nurses walked forward. "If you can save him, then I'll help.""Get blood. Other doctors must be busy with other patients, and if we wait longer, he'll die."I didn't know why, but I was hell bent on saving this man. He didn't look like just any ordinary man, in short, I had this feeling he was no ordinary man.I tore open his chest where he was bleeding, and noticed there was a hole on his lower abdomen. When I looked closely, I discovered he had been shot.I looked around and found some tools
TYLER;Days have passed since Emily's death, but I still can't seem to forget her. I would stare at our photos together everyday, and because of Karen and my unborn baby, I had to pretend like I wasn't thinking about her any longer.The door to the room opened, and Karen walked in."You okay?" She came closer to me and sat down on the bed. "I made breakfast. You have a meeting with the pack at 5. I want you to be fine Tyler, I'm here for you.""I Know Karen. What about mom?" "She went to stock up the house. I was weak earlier when I woke up."I felt her wrapped her arms around my waist, "Tyler, did you accept the invitation?" She questioned. I shook my head in negation. "Killian's your best friend, you need to pay your respect to him, and be present. It would mean a lot to him if you are."I heaved deeply. Killian only knew Emily, and he liked her a lot. I wondered how he would feel if he found out that Emily had been replaced by Karen. Killian was celebrating his victory in conque
EMILY:I was still desperately waiting for the young girl to call me mommy. They had already started searching around and looking at some of the patient's if any of them was strange. My heart was beating so fast and right when I thought I would finally be caught, I heard her voice."M.. mommy."I smiled and widened my eyes. "Say it again." I whispered to her. She was bolder than before."Mommy."I outstretched my hands towards her and hugged her tight. When they saw us, they only walked past us because they didn't want to interrupt a mother and child's time. I breathed out loud, and took a strand of her hair after they had walked past us."Thank you so much. I'll repay the favor one day." I said.I suddenly looked around. It did seem like the girl was all alone in the hospital."Can I ask you a question?" I said, and she nodded her head. "Where are your parents?"The expression on her face suddenly changed into an unhappy one. She frowned and looked away."They're both dead." I heard
EMILY:I stood at the entrance of the office wondering if this was actually the right decision I was making. Could I sacrifice the revenge I wanted on Tyler and Karen because of the little girl who had made me remember my baby?I felt pity for her. What had she been through that still makes her isolate herself from the world? Another thing I was curious about was just how exactly he knew her. I had no idea he had a soft spot.I sucked a deep breath and then rasped a knock on the door hoping to get an answer immediately, but I got none. I waited for a few minutes but there was still no answer.I touched the door knob and found out it was locked. I heaved deeply and then turned around to walk away, but then she came to my view.The lady I had seen killed her best friend some days ago. "Hello." She greeted me, but I didn't wave back immediately. I didn't know why I was always so scared around her, and thinking back, I recalled she had called a man's name in their conversation."You look
EMILY:I was tired, and weak. Immediately I stepped out of the operating room, I leaned on the wall rubbing the sweat on my forehead clean with my palm. I heaved deeply and then stood upright when Christian came out as well."You did great!" He commented.I didn't smile or even spare him a glance. Instead, I avoided his gaze completely.It was 6 Days ago I signed the contract, and it was also six days ago I had started looking after Lilith. "Come to my office when you freshen up, I need to discuss something with you." He said.I immediately averted my gaze to him. I raised my wrist and stared at my wristwatch. It was getting late, and almost past my work time."Mr Christian… I need…""It'll only be for a minute."I had told him to hide my real name from everyone since he was the only one who knew it. I heaved deeply and Talia stepped out from the room."Dr. Gray, we have another emergency patient. He's not in here, but his family called, and it's urgent."I'll get everything ready…"C
AUTHOR’S POV.“Please just stay still babe,” Tyler uttered as he got down from his car and headed straight for the back seat where Karen lay.He opened the car door quickly and wrapped Karen around his hands while he rushed as fast as his legs could carry him inside. “Somebody please help, my wife, is in labor,” Tyler yelled out. Dr. Grace and her team of nurses arrived with haste, quickly relieving Tyler of Karen's weight and transferring her to a wheeled stretcher. In no time, the procession quickly carried Karen away.“Just sit here sir, I assure you, she will be fine,” Grace mentioned before leaving for Karen's ward. Tyler felt his heart beat so fast and hard. As he sat on the visitors' seats, he could hear Karen's loud groan from the operating room. He sprang to his feet, his eyes burning with anxiety as he began to pace around the room. In a moment of desperation, he closed his eyes and clasped his hands together, silently asking the moon goddess for a positive outcome.“Ple
CHRISTIAN’S POV.“Let's talk outside,” I said to Blake as he glanced at me. “Stay here Lilith,” I whispered, placing her back on the visitor's seat. I walked outside immediately while Blake trailed behind me. The air practically crackled with my anger as I faced Blake, my hands clenching into fists at my sides itching to strike him.“Why, Blake?” I snarled. “Why would you break my sister’s heart?”. He kept his gaze trained on the floor, remaining silent.“Look at me!” I shouted, my voice laced with contempt. “Tell me why you did it! Do you have any idea what she's been through?”Finally, Blake looked up, his expression one of shame and regret. “I’m sorry, Christian,” he murmured, his voice barely audible.My blood boiled at the sight of his pathetic attempt at an apology.“Sorry?” I spat, my eyes blazing with rage. “You think that’s enough? Mia sacrificed herself to save you, even after everything you did to her, and all you can say is I’m sorry?”I could feel my hands trembling, a
TYLER'S POV.I sat next to Blake and Christian's cousin, Lilith. As I looked down at her, her little eyes were swollen already. “Hey, are you okay?” I questioned but she didn't even blink an eye to show that she was alright. “they’re going to be okay.” I declared. I inhaled a deep breath and shut my eyes deeply, calling the moment Emily was being stabbed. Christian had been furious and controlled by his anger. Maybe I wasn't the one Emily deserved it be with, after all, maybe Christian was her real mate. The way he sliced Talia's throat within the blink of an eye proved how much he loved and cared about Emily. Truly, Christian was the greatest and most powerful lycan that had ever existed. He fought with full strength and emotions and no one could ever defeat him. He would always win every single battle that came his way because he was born of Lycan blood.I opened my eyes wide as soon as I heard Christian’s voice. He walked out of a room that had a short description of “staff
CHRISTIAN’S POV I stood frozen unable to take my gaze off Emily as she dropped down to the floor. I could feel my heart beating so fast and I couldn't breathe well anymore.My crawls came running out of my fingers and I felt like I wasn't in control of myself anymore. I was still in human form but fur grew slowly on my face. “We can now be together Chris.” I heard Talia's voice. With annoyance, I sped off where she stood and grabbed her neck tightly. You're such a monster.” I barked. “It's time for you to leave this earth as well.” I declared as my grip on her neck worsened. “Please Christian, I did this for our love.” Talia cried out but it only worsened the pain even more.I wasn't in control anymore and the moment my eyes gleamed again, I slit her throat with my fingers and threw her lifeless body far away. Tears dropped down from my eyes as I averted my gaze back to where Emily lay on the floor.Lilith sat close to her, holding her hand tightly. I felt a drop of water on my
AUTHOR’S POV.Christian arrived at the imposing building and immediately stomped through the front door, in annoyance. His frustration grew when he was interrogated by a group of bodyguards who searched his body for weapons. Finding nothing, they finally ushered him into a large, cold room where he spotted Mia and Emily bound to chairs.With a swift motion, Christian freed them from their restraints, but before they could even thank him, a familiar figure entered the room.His blood ran cold instantly as I recognized the pale, arrogant features of Roland and some others. Roland stood before them, and his eyes narrowed in anticipation.“Ah, Christian,” he drawled, his voice dripping with false cordiality. “I’m so glad you could join us.”“Let us go,” Christian snapped, his anger barely contained. “You’ve no right to hold us captive like this..” “On the contrary,” Roland replied with a widening smile. “You decided not to yield to our warnings. Why don't you just join me and the othe
TYLER’S POV.I opened my eyes and sat straight up on the bed. I felt very different and somehow happy. I wasn't going to lay in bed throughout the day because Karen was here now. With a deep breath, I stood to my feet and walked straight to the bathroom. Karen had woken up early and left my room. I washed up a little and stepped out of my room quickly. While I took the staircase, I spotted Mia and Emily standing in the living room and it seemed like they were both waiting for me. “Hey, good morning,” I uttered as I walked towards where they both stood. “Morning,” Karen responded first, and then Emily. “I need your help Tyler, I need to warn Christian about Alpha Damon's plans and help with fighting every single person that's after him,” Emily said. I glanced at her for a moment and as our eyes locked, I could feel the pain within her. She was really worried about Christian. She still had the same sparkling eyeballs. All I could see right now was my Emily from a few months ago.
EMILY'S POV.I held Lilith's hand firmly while Mia stood next to me. We waited outside for a few minutes until when Karen arrived. “Hey, Emily.” She waved from afar. I turned to face Mia and began to speak. “Alright Mia, the one thing I need you to do right now is to get to the plane safely with Lilith,” I ordered and bent to Lilith's level. “I'll see you soon baby, mummy can't go with you now,” I said, rising straight up. “What about you Emily,” Mia questioned.I smiled warmly at her and cuddled her tightly. “I have something urgent to do right now.” With that, I turned quickly to meet Karen.We both stepped out of the airport glass door and walked straight to Karen's car. As we climbed in, Karen turned on the engine and we drove to Tyler's place quickly. ________________TYLER’S POV. I sat on the sofa with my attention fully drawn to Zane as he stood opposite me. “If that would be the case, then I must meet with all my pack members.” I declared and shut my eyes, relaxing more
“Are you sure I shouldn't tag along?” Lisa asked as she brushed Karen's hair smoothly. “I'll be alright Lisa, you don't need to worry too much”. Karen assured her.For a while, she glanced at the mirror before her and smiled. Lisa had made sure she looked beautiful before she was finally going to see Tyler today. “I'm just saying bestie, you shouldn't just trust anyone that easily especially your husband's ex-wife.”Karen heaved deeply as soon as she heard Lisa's words. “There is absolutely nothing to worry about besides, Emily had finally moved on and she has a family of her own now. so we are both helping ourselves out.”Karen paused and held Lisa's hand gently. “I know you care so much about me but I think it is the right time to leave your place now.”“I'm not complaining Karen.” Lisa's tone was soft and low as she darted her gaze to the floor.“Yeah, I know but still, thank you so much for everything Lisa you are the best.” After that, Karen pulled herself up and came closer to
AUTHOR'S POV.“Kill her!.” Tyler heard one of the men's voices. A smirk crept at the corner of her lips as she began to walk to and fro.“Is this mainly because I followed you here or because I caught you strangling that patient until he passed out?” questioned and they both glanced at each other.Tyler turned her gaze to them and then back to the floor. She began to speak. “From the look of things, I know who you both are after and I'm willing to help you,” she uttered and smiled warmly.“I could make Christian finally come to you on a condition that you get rid of that slot that's always with him.” As Talia spoke, they both raised their brows in surprise.“Do you mean the doctor from earlier?” One of them mentioned and Talia nodded ahead happily.“Yeah, Emily!” She exclaimed. “However, I do have a very good plan and if you are willing to join hands with me, then it shall be carried out the day after tomorrow.” Talia watched silently as one of them drew close to where she stood and
