CHRISTIAN POV"What? Why would you even make such a decision? Isn't it absurd that she takes over your place with little experience?" Talia bursted out staring at me coldly. I could see anger in her eyes as she spoke,"Emily isn't inexperienced. She carried out an operation alone even without a license months ago, and she has incredible skills. I think she's the best person for this position.""This isn't you, it's your feelings. It's very clear you're blindly in love with her and that's the reason for this decision." Talia fired back, but I wasn't going to scold her,"If you don't mind, I have to do something important." This was me indirectly asking her to leave my office since I was in no mood to scold her. "Christian,""It's Dr Christian, Talia," I responded, still holding myself from getting angry while she scoffed and rose to her feet. "I have no idea whatever spell she cast on you, but this isn't you. This isn't the man I always looked up to when I first met." She uttered and b
TYLER: NIGHT FALL."Can I come with you? What if something goes wrong, Tyler?" Karen kept asking questions as I was getting prepared to leave the pack for the secret hideout. I knew if I missed this opportunity, then another would never be able to come by so easily. I took her hand in mine and drew closer to her."No. I can't risk you getting exposed to danger." I uttered and kissed her forehead gently. It was because of the baby, but I didn't want to say that to her else Karen might end up sneaking out and coming with me."Are you certain you'll be fine? Please bring her to me safe and sound." She begged softly, and staring into her eyes, I saw fear. Was she worried about me getting hurt over there, or was she worried about the safety of her mom? "I promise, I'll bring her home to you." When she nodded her head, I let go of her head and cocked my head towards Zane.As soon as I nodded my head at him, he began walking away with some other wolves he had arranged earlier. I turned arou
CHRISTIAN:"The Voltori are here? What are they doing here? What do they want?" Shane questioned surprisingly. I had not wanted him to know earlier, but right now, I had bi choice because I needed all the help that I could get."Yes, they're here. They want me to become one of them or pledge my alliance to their pack, but I can't do that. They know my true identity, and I can't let anyone out there find out.""What about Mia? Isn't she...""Shane, I'm leaving Mia's safety to you. Mia can never find out exactly how powerful her wolf is or anyone in the world. If that happens, she'll be in grave danger and we might not be able to protect her."I watched Shane curl his hands, "What's wrong? Did something happen?" I was curious to know because he only does that whenever he is mad about something,"No, nothing. I'll protect Mia no matter what, Alpha. I won't let her out of my sight." The sound of Shane's voice made me know that he meant every single word he said and I was happy. I could ne
AUTHOR'S POVKaren stood at the entrance of the two big doors leading to the living room. She had her hands on her protruding stomach, rubbing it gently."Your dad is going to be home safe and sound right? Nothing's going to happen to him right? I don't have to be worried right?" Karen questioned, trying to calm herself down with these words even though it was clear that she felt uneasy. Tyler might be so harsh to her, hate her for everything, for destroying his marriage, and even love someone else, but the undeniable fact was that she loved him very much and this feeling was so hard to battle.She had tried too hard to hate him in return, but it all failed."Luna Karen, your meal is ready, and the doctor will be on his way to check up on you in less than an hour. The maids are also preparing a warm bath for you." Karen heard but didn't turn her gaze at the maid who had just announced all of this,"Luna...""I heard you the first time, but I'll eat when my Alpha returns to the pack. I
CHRISTIAN: "Hey...""Shhhhhhh, Lilith's asleep. I need to take her to her room right now." Emily cut me off and I nodded. I walked closer to the bed and saw Lilith asleep while Emily was gently trying to pick her up in her arms so she wouldn't wake up."Let me," I uttered, and Emily stepped aside. I had taken care of Lilith since she was a baby, and even though she hardly talked to me, I knew how to carry her in my arms in a comfortable manner. I pulled away my suit jacket, dropped it on the bed beside her, and pulled out my wristwatch."Here, hold on to this." As Emily collected it, I leaned closer to Lilith and placed my hands on her back. As I picked her in my arms, she made a little movement making Emily think she would wake, but she didn't,"Oh, thank goodness," Emily uttered, while I began to walk away with Lilith. As I got to her room, I placed her on the bed gently while Emily placed the duvet on her properly. I watched her lean closer and planted a soft kiss on Lilith's fore
AUTHOR'S POV:"Take her in immediately," Zane ordered the maid who had stepped out of the room with Karen."My Luna, please let's go...""Shut the hell up! Just shut up." Karen yelled at her. "How can you tell me to go in when my husband is in that condition? Are you mad? I should be by his side and nowhere else." Karen yelled at Zane and sniffled. "What are you waiting for? Take him in right now."Although Zane was surprised, he carried the alpha in while Karen followed behind him, trying as much as possible not to break down,"What about the pack doctor?""Someone has been sent. He'll be here in a few minutes." Zane responded, but Karen shook her head in negation, "We can't afford a few minutes. I know one or two about treatment and so I can help him till the pack doctor arrives." Karen tried to take a step closer to Tyler, but she was blocked by Zane who stood right in front,"I'm so sorry, Luna, but I can't let you do that. What I'd something goes wrong and you worsen his conditio
AUTHOR'S POV"Are you certain you? What if you go in there and she tries to hurt you? You're pregnant for the Alpha's child Karen.""I know. More than anyone, I care about this baby too, but she's my mother and if she recognizes me, she's never going to hurt me.""We really shouldn't take such a risk, at least till the Alpha wakes up and approves of this," Zane said holding the door knob. If anything happened to Karen, then Tyler would have his head on a plate because the baby would be gone too."Zane, nothing would happen to me. As long as you're with me, I promise nothing will happen. Stay close." He heaved deeply and opened the door as she had instructed. After Karen took a deep breath in, she walked into the room to meet a woman seated on a small bed.It was just like she remembered. Her mother had not changed even a bit. She was still the most beautiful woman that she remembered when she was still young,"Mother," Karen called out in a low whisper, but she was still seated starin
AUTHOR'S POVThe door was forced open, and at the same time, Zane rushed into the room when Tyler's mother had gotten in already. "What's wrong?" Zane questioned."Where is my son? You're my son's Beta and get you stay here and watch this witch almost kill my son? You should be killed right away for your incompetence."Zane arched his brows as he stared at her, trying as much as possible to hold back his anger. "She has to leave this pack. Baby or not, she isn't fit to be Luna of this pack.""That's for the Alpha to decide, and until he's awake, she's under my protection. I suggest you wait till the Alpha wakes up."Before Zane could utter another word, a resounding slap was dropped on his face, "How dare you talk to me in that manner? Are you crazy? I am the Alpha mother, and my words are also that of my son's so get this evil witch out of this mansion."Karen rose to her feet and walked towards them,"Mom, I suggest you...""Mom? Did you just call me mom? I'm not your mother and I
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
