Alfredo’s Pov

“Fuck!” I cursed as the sting of sunlight passed through my eyelids, jolting me up. I opened my eyes to see my mother standing by the window side with a smile on her face and her hands behind her.

“It’s a good morning to you, and you should learn how to get rid of those swear words from your lips. Your marriage to Sheila is sealing your position as alpha of both packs,” she said as she walked closer to the bed.

I let out a frustrated sigh as I turned over, placing my face on the bed while I covered my ears with my pillow.

“Come on now, Alfredo,” I heard her say as I felt her weight press down on the edge of the bed.

“I do not want to leave,” I said as my voice got muffled by the bed I laid on top. I felt her creep upwards, dragging the blanket away from my body.

“Thought you said you wanted some responsibilities. This is one of them if you want to continue keeping heirs for our lineage,” she said when she was down. Her weight was removed from the bed to let me know she

    Sheila’s POV I stepped out of the car with him holding the door open for me, offering me a smile as he took my hands. “What do we do first?” I asked as I straightened my gown. I would take it back to Mother after a while. It would be nice if we made it a family heirloom.“Get a shower probably or open the gifts,” he said with a chuckle as he held out his arm. I took it into mine as we walked into the house.“We open the gifts,” I said, knowing the gift wouldn’t get to the house until morning. He chuckled more, his body vibrating with his laughter.“I’ll say a shower. I’ve been in this dress almost all morning as my mother admired it,” he said as he twirled partly, scrutinizing the clothes on his body.“You are not the only one,” I said, detailing my experience with my mother and her emotional feelings when she saw me pick the dress she wore on her wedding day. He did the same, telling me how he picked his ass father’s clothes. “No wonder you smell different. Wondered about it.”He

    Alfredo’s Pov.I let out a groan as my eyes fluttered open. Sheila lay on my chest. Her snores were like the sound of tinkers floating into my ears. I pushed her over, hoping I would not wake her with that action, but she didn’t seem to notice, stirring softly before she returned to her sleep.“Seems you had a good time,” Dex said as my feet touched the ground. I let out a yawn, stretching my hands before I walked to the window. Some vans lined the driveway with some helpers carrying stuff inside.“I did,” I said as I continued my peeping. It looked like they were gifts as I saw Mother standing, giving directions to those who carried them. “Almost gave yourself out,” he continued, freezing my thoughts at his statement.“Did I do anything stupid?” I asked as I rubbed my temples, forcing my mind to remember what events had happened. It came back with sex scenes only.“You were calling her Melissa at some point.” Dex let out a chuckle as fur grew out of my body. I let out a little sigh

    Alfredo’s Pov “Let me guess; the outcome of the couple's meeting was today?” She asked as she flashed me a smile when I entered her room. She held a mirror in her hand, staring at her reflection. Two different pictures of my father, mum and I hung next to the television. I had mine in my study, away from prying eyes.“Yes. She was more than happy to get going,” I said as I stood at the door. She turned to face a mirror she held, admiring her fading beauty as she touched the lines on her face.“I wonder why your father waited so long before he gave me a child. Now I’m all old and wrinkled up when I should have held my grandchildren in my hands a long time ago.”“He had his reason and I see nothing wrong with them,” I said as I walked to one of the seats, placing my ass on it.“Don’t be silly, boy, and give me a grandchild as soon as possible,” she said with a smile as she turned towards me, dropping the mirror on the table in front of her.“Sheila and I would see how we would make tha

    Sheila’s POV “You seem happy with the union,” Lisa said as I stepped into the house. Mom and Dad took Alfredo off my hands for me to prepare our room with the helpers as they hadn’t expected us to come so soon.“I didn’t think you wanted to talk to me anymore,” I said as I took the stairs that would lead me to my room. Some helpers followed behind me with the bags we brought. He had taken out his time to remove some clothes I packed for him, insisting that he had never worn so much.My room was almost the same as his as I stepped in, except for my colors. “What next?” Lisa asked. “You become a Luna a bear his offsprings?”“That is the only thing we can do,” I said as I pulled the suitcase into my room. I opened it to find out he had taken quite a few clothes as I hung them in my wardrobe. The helpers continued with their job of cleaning.Seven pairs of trousers, the same amount of shirts, three shoes in the black and brown region, and a pair of speakers. Some polish and sweatshirts

    Melissa (Gabriella’s Pov)I woke up with a yawn, rubbing my protruding belly. Alpha Farrell had made it easy for me to do some house chores as the doctor advised I did light work. I knew they had questions for me, but my memory loss claim since the day I came had been a lifesaver.The bathroom welcomed me with my image reflecting on the mirror. Disheveled hair, saggy eyes, and a tantrum I never thought I had, more like a childish one. It didn’t matter that I was still one. The news of Alfredo’s wedding spread through the nightshade pack like fire. Alpha Farrell didn’t like the look of things as I had heard him talk about calling a meeting with the pack's elders.It didn’t matter to me as long as I could not see him and the same applied to him. Which meant he would never see his kids as long as I remained invisible. “Good morning, Gabriella,” the familiar ringing of his voice sounded outside my door. He had taken it as a routine to visit me every morning with a cup of coffee since th

    Melissa (Gabriella’s Pov) I woke up without the familiar knocking from Alpha Farrell. “Is he tired of me already?” I said as I stood from my bed, walking to the bathroom to wash my face. Looks like nature had done its best to relieve me of my stress; I thought as I threw a smile at my reflection in the mirror.I was almost four months gone and could feel the movements in my stomach. Lyra had gone from worry to excitement, feeling another life, rather, two lives as she knew what dwelt inside me.“I’m coming,” I said excitedly as I heard a knock on my door. Although I knew he came every morning with a cup of coffee; it never dulled the feeling.I rushed to the door, tying my hair along the way. The door opened to show me another sight, with my excitement dying down like burning embers without wood.“Good morning, Gabriella.”I stopped, staring at Claire as she held a cup of steaming coffee in her hands.“Alpha Farrell asked me to bring you to the gardens,” she said as she stretched th

    Alfredo’s Pov The bed felt uncomfortable to my body. I stood up walking to the window to stare at the sky. The sun was high in the sky, shedding its rays around me. Sheila slept peacefully, her soft snores caressing my ears at that moment, but it couldn’t lure me back to bed.“Where are you, Melissa?” I said as I looked outside; the wind rippling through the room and sending the curtains flailing to its touch. It’s been two weeks and I haven’t been able to leave the pack. A huge chunk of the reason was that I was Alpha now, and I was married, but most of the decision still laid on the shoulders of mother and Sheila’s father, yet they would not let me go out as I pleased.I gave a sigh as I relaxed on the windowsill, folding my hands across my chest.“We are not giving up our search for her, are we?” Dex asked. He must have sensed my troubled mind, but that was the most he could say, as we knew she hadn’t revoked the first bond, but the question remained. She only had to be in the sa

    Sheila’s POV. I woke up, rubbing my hand across the bed to find it empty. I sat up with the speed of a chased hare, covering my eyes as the light phasing through the windows was blinding.“Where did he go?” I yawned as I rolled out of bed. I thought I would be tired after everything we’ve been through. I sighed as I walked to the bathroom. It still smelled of the soap he used to wash himself.“You’ve become obsessed with him,” Lisa said as I sniffed the air before turning on the shower to take my bath, regulating it to my desired temperature.“That’s what I can do,” I said with a smile, biting my lips as I took off my clothes. The water gave a sizzling feeling as it rained down my body. I moaned as delved into the pleasure of cleaning myself after another tiring day.I walked down the stairs to find Mom sitting with her face on the television. I knew she was watching a soap opera.“Where did they go to?”“Your father went for one of his meetings, and your mate went to stroll the pac

    Hello guys, so the last chapter was supposed to be an author's note. I'm not really familiar with the author's center interface, so please bear with me. So, guys, I understand that I haven't uploaded any chapters for over two months, and that's because of my health. I'm really really sorry about that, but my health is not entirely under my control. I had to rush the story even though I had a lot planned out(walking you guys through on how Claire was caught, and what happened with Alfredo and his family). I just had to wrap it up because I feel it's long overdue. I know many of you must have forgotten about one or two details regarding the story, but for every single one of you that sticked to the end, I'm super grateful 🙏🏽. This is actually my first story, and the love you guys showed me was immense. Thank you so very much, and God bless you all. I hope to see your support whenever I come up with a new story. Kindly leave your honest reviews and criticism, on the general comment

    Alpha Farrell's POV Two Months Later. It's been two whole month since I found out that Gabriella and I were mates, and all the saga that led us to this moment. Alfredo has been stripped off his position as Alpha, and his family exiled from the Pack, they're basically rogues with nothing but scraps to feed on. Princess Sheila on the other hand, was given a more milde punishment. Lockhart was still under Nightshade's while she served as an omega in the Packhouse. This was the mildest punishment we could give her, since it was with her help I was able to locate Alfredo after he secretly changed the location where he held Gabriella and the boys. The first phone call I had received was from her. But Alfredo found out she was tipping me off, and used her to lure me into a trap. Where he used those rogues who attacked us to secretly inject us with wolfsbane, making us weak and powerless. Princess Sheila still came to the rescue, soon after Alfredo came to gloat while I was chained, and c

    Melissa’s POV One month later.The gown in front of me was sparkling, casting glittering lights from its reflection as the helpers helped me don it.“It’s pretty, mummy,” Daemon said with his brother running behind him.The helpers stood at the door, stopping them from reaching me for fear of them ruining it.“Let them in,” I said, waiting for my boys to run into my arms.They came in haste, but mounting their distance, even as curiosity pushed at them to touch my gown.“My wife is going to wear one like this when I get married,” Damian said as he caressed the gown.I threw him a smile, bending as low as my gown would allow me to touch their heads. “Of course she would,” I said as I pinched his cheeks.“Are you ready?”I raised my head to meet Aiden as he stood in front of the room, dressed elegantly, for the matter. “I am.” The answer was no surprise for me as I straightened my gown while Aiden held out his arm for me.“You wouldn’t want to keep the groom waiting for too long,” he s

    Gabriella’s POV I stood like a display doll in front of the entire Silverrose, as I listened to Alfredo give a glamorous speech to justify why he's an asshole.I can't wait for all this to be over so Alfredo can take me to see my voice. He has done all he can to break me, and since he wasn't succeeding, he stopped so low as using my boys, our kids to threaten me.‘I only want you Mel, we can make more babies,’ he said, holding a knife over Damian. My baby was so scared and called out to me for help but I couldn't do anything. Now in order to keep my kids alive, I'm subjecting myself to an eternity of hell on earth. But I can endure all that, as long as my boys are fine. The look on Farrell's face when I told him I wanted to be with Alfredo broke me every time I thought about it.Alfredo nudged me, which was his cue, telling me to smile. I forced a smile, as Alfredo took another gulp of wine.“You're mine forever now, Mel,” he said, his voice barely above a whisper as he brought out

    Claire's POVToday makes it exactly four days since I saw Aiden and Alpha Farrell last. From what I was told, they suddenly got into their car and drove off. At first I was worried that maybe, somehow they'd figured out that Gabriella was in Silverrose Pack, but I called Alfredo and he confirmed that they never showed up at his Pack.I didn't take his words for it when he told me, but everywhere has been calm, and there's no way in hell that Alpha Farrell found Gabriella and Alfredo still have his head.“Don't get happy too quickly,” Anya said through the mindlink. “I’ve got a feeling that this is the calm before the storm.”“Yeah right,” I replied, rolling my eyes. “There's no storm coming. If there's one thing, the storm already happened and this is the calm after the storm.”“But–”“Not now, Anya!” I snapped. “Alfredo is going to mark and announce Gabriella as his Luna today, and we’re going to witness that alongside anybody,” I explained. “So, no matter what storms come after this

    Alpha Farrell's PovHow we arrived at the location in the text was a total blur. The stone walls of the shrines were cracked and filled with overgrown vines.As we stepped towards the entrance of the shrine, the door to the shrine creaked open.“Ah, Alpha Farrell,” Alfredo called out gingerly, spreading his arms wide like he was seeing an old friend. “I must say, I'm disappointed you didn't send an official letter. I would have made your welcome, more… memorable,” he smirked.“Cut the crap, Alfredo!” I snarled, bringing out my claws, as I marched forward, Ora flashing in my eyes. “Where's Gabriella? Where are my boys?”“Your boys?” Alfredo chuckled darkly. “I think you're getting things wrong, Alpha Farrell,” he said, a smirk tugging at the corner of his lips. “THEY ARE MY BOYS. And as for my MATE, I'm sure she doesn't want to see you.”“Alfredo!” I growled, charging towards him.“Farrell!” Aiden called out to me from behind.“What?!” I snapped irritatedly, turning sharply to face him

I'm trying to do things Aiden's way but Ora isn't having it. He's beating himself up about not seeing through this and believing Gabriella won't just abandon us like that.The door to my study swung open and Aiden walked in."Any news from your guys?" I asked impatiently."Yes, they trace Alfredo to a secluded house at the outskirts of his Pack's territory," he explained. "One won't even guess something like that was there," he said. "They'll try and confirm if Gabriella and the boys are there tonight," he continued. "The place is heavily guarded, and if they're indeed there we wouldn't want to tip Alfredo off that we're on to him so we need to be careful and patient–""I don't have patience, Aiden," I said, my voice higher than usual. "I messed up, don't you get it?" I asked rhetorically. "I

    Alpha Farrell's POVIt's been over two weeks and I felt like my life has been sucked out of me. The heavy stench of alcohol was the air I breathed in now, accompanied with the whimpering of my wolf, Ora. What was left of both of us was our brain refusing to accept that Gabriella was truly gone, she left us to be with that scumbag.I can't even tell what's happening physically and what's just a figment of my imaginations. For the first few nights Gabriella left, my nights were plagued with dreams of her returns, but for the rest of the night till now I couldn't tell the difference between day and night, I've been in a loophole of endless emotional torture. Why I feel this way, I had no idea. She wasn't my mate, I've never had one but I'm sure even wolf's that lost their mates didn't feel as empty as I'm feeling right now.Has Gabriella always been like this? Was I blinded by the soft spot Ora had towards her that I couldn't see the real her? All that filled my thoughts were countless q

Most nights, we could hear him growling, it felt like a part of him left with that bitch. Well, I just need a chance to make him forget all about that bitch at the drop of a hat."Do you have everything that I asked for in there?" I overheard Aiden's voice, it was coming from the kitchen."Yes, Beta Aiden," an omega responded.Curiosity got the better of me, and since I was practically idle at the moment I decided to go find out what's happening."Hey Aiden, what's happening?" I asked ,as I saw trays of different foods lined up."Nothing, just want to take this food to Alpha Farell," he responded and got back to dishing out orders."Isn't this a bit too much?" I asked. "He hasn't eaten for two weeks now, the last thing he'll want is too much food.""I don't know," Aiden said
