Alpha Farrell’s Pov The sound of a beeping machine did no good as I paced around the room with my finger on my lips. I felt like I was thinking and at the same time, there was nothing coming to mind.“You’ve got to stop pacing about,” Ora said, even when the tension originated from him the most. “It’s just a baby.”“Two babies,” I corrected as I stared at the light of the labor room. It remained in red, with no serious movements coming from inside.Aiden stood at the side like he was not scared of anything that would happen. I had seen her face when the contraction started. She held tight to my shirt as I picked her into the car, not wanting to let go when I offered to drive the car and that was where Aiden had come into the picture.“Is everything alright?” I asked as I saw a nurse step out of the labor room, hurrying to get to somewhere that she ignored me altogether. I could see from the swinging door that she was in a lot of pain as she held tight to the bed. Beads of sweat form
Alfredo’s Pov “Anything wrong?” Alpha Brian asked.I muttered in the negative, as I did not know what was wrong, pausing at the feeling I had in my heart. A hand on my shoulder woke me from the trance. “Looks like you had your head up in the cloud for the moment.”I turned to see Alpha Brian staring me in the eyes, a look of concern on his face. “You looked like you stepped on a ticking time bomb.”“It’s nothing,” I said as I placed my hands on my racing heart to calm myself.“Thought you would fall face first to the ground with that grave look on your face.”“I’m fine,” I answered, taking a deep breath to cool myself. “I’ll leave you to your thoughts. Any discussion would be for the future; I have to see my daughter before I leave.”“Hey, Dad.” His words hardly left his lips when Sheila came running from the stairs, flinging herself into his arms. He laughed as he swung her around for a while. I stepped away to allow for the father and daughter reunion.“I didn’t think I’d meet w
Melissa (Gabriella’s Pov) “What do you want to do?” Alpha Farrell asked as he pushed the stroller that carried the children. A little smile on his face.“I want to go home, cradle my children, and sleep for a very long time,” I said as I stared into the stroller, looking at their sweet-looking faces with bodies swaddled in soft clothing.“I thought you wanted to work?” He asked with a smirk on his face, just as a car that looked like one of his drove by.“After I’ve rested enough,” I said, looking at the horizon. The sun was shooting itself high in the sky, illuminating the sky with its bright light.“I don’t think you’d get that much time, especially with the double dose of trouble lying down in front of us,” he said as he looked into the stroller where they stirred from his sudden movement.“Don’t remind me of the troubles I’ll face with them around,” I said as I moved closer to the stroller, putting my finger into the hands of the one who raised his hand above his head even while
Alpha Farrell’s Pov “I’m tired,” I groaned, stretching my hands from the book I was reading. My routine of giving Gabriella a cup of coffee in the morning had died down to the barest minimum.“What do we do today?” Ora asked. I let out a little sigh as I did a mental calculation of my schedule and what I could push away or trash completely. Not like Aiden wouldn’t inform me about its importance when I didn’t do something of value.“I was thinking of going out for a race,” I said. The chair creaked as I pushed it backward, stretching fully until my joints popped and cracked. “Haven’t gotten the time to do that since the attack on Gabriella.”“Since we found out she carried a child,” Ora corrected, letting out a little yawn.I let out a little chuckle at his correction, heading out from my study. The room smelled nice from the wind blowing through the window. There was a little chill in the air that sent goosebumps around my arms.“But there is another thing troubling me,” I said as I
Gabriella’s Pov “I didn’t think I’d see you out so early.”I raised my head to see a lady standing in front of me. Her flowing hair reminded me of someone I had seen before, but I couldn’t remember the exact place with only the smell of incense and fog clouding my mind.“How are Daemon and Damian doing?” She asked as she moved closer to the stroller, peering inside to look at my boys with a smile on her face.I was sitting in front of the Alpha’s house, which meant that few people had access to the place, but the lady in front of me was giving me a chill with a feeling of mystery wrapped around her like a cloak.“Do not be alarmed. You might not remember me because I made it so,” she said as she flashed me a smile, sitting in the seat next to me. “But I remember you. The scared girl they brought to me to find out if she was a spy.”The thought came to me almost immediately as I turned to look at her. She faced me with a smile as she tucked a part of her hair behind her ears.“Elsa,”
Alfredo’s Pov It turned slowly into a thing of routine. Meeting after meeting that gave me respite to a timeout. Conan had come back with less and less information that only hinted at one thing: Melissa was dead.“Do I need to get your head out of the cloud?”I turned to see Mother standing by my side with a look on her face that told me she was worried about me.“I’m fine,” I said as I managed a nervous chuckle to pull her away from my thoughts.“What were you thinking of? It’s not like you have responsibility designated to you at the moment.” She said as she passed her arm through mine, linking us together while we walked away from the flurry of noise washing over us.It’s been more than five years and I have kept my secret between Conan and me. Was I ready to pass this information to her? I sighed as the question ran across my mind in that split second.“We haven’t given you a grandchild,” I said, to push her mind to a specific thought. She smiled as she laid her head on my shoul
Alpha Farrell’s Pov “I really want to wrap my hands around your neck and squeeze the life out of you,” I said as I struck my hands towards him, pushing menacingly like I sought to do the exact words I had said.“But we know you wouldn’t do it,” Aiden answered with a smile on his face. Evidence it was payback on his side.I sighed as I turned away from him, placing my hands in my pocket. “What do you think she would discuss with Gabriella? I don’t think there is enough reason for her to leave her place and move here because of Gabriella. I mean, look at it; she never asked me about her for once during the time Gabriella stayed here.”“She might have her reason that she’s keeping because of something important that links to it,” Aiden answered, folding his hands across his chest before placing one under his chin.“Whatever she wants to do. It’s not like I care about it anyway,” I said as I waved my hand like I chased flies. I could tell Aiden looked at me from the side of his eyes.We
Claire’s PovShe had stayed in the pack for less than a year, yet Alpha Farrell made it a point of his to be around her at all times. I wondered what a stranger would mean to our Alpha suddenly.I shook my head to push the thoughts from my head just as I noticed someone who looked like Elsa walking out of the Alpha’s house. She flashed me a smile, with her silky hair dancing in the wind.“Seems everyone is crazy,” I said as I stared ahead at the house. My brother, Aiden, stood at the front with the Alpha. Both looked engaged in whatever discussion that boiled between them.“You smell funny.”I looked up to see it was Elsa, the pack’s seer, without her makeup for the first time. I had never seen her outside her place before, and it was more like a shocker for me. It felt fuzzy that I could recognize her even without her makeup.“What do you mean?” I asked as I moved forward until I was shoulder-to-shoulder with her.“You just have to be careful about the decisions you make or else they
