ANNABELLA'S POV

I didn't know why I had to get up this early on a Saturday morning but I guess I wasn't in the best of mood with myself. I was scared and confused and it had so much to do with last night. I couldn't believe something like that had happened. The image of him pulling me to his bare chest and kissing my palm was lingering.

I didn't know what it was about but my heart was already screaming in excitement. I stepped down from bed to look for a shower. But what was there to be excited about? I knew he wouldn't want to see my face once he found out I was a wolf just like the rest. It wasn't my fault neither did I choose this fate but it was easier to get blamed. No alpha would vouch for a wolf-less mate and talk more of letting her bore his pup and an heir at that..

I pulled out of the bathroom with a towel around my chest. I strode to the small closet at the corner of the room beside the window. I surfed through the few things I owned to look for something to help me

    ANNABELLA'S POV “ Don't” I didn't realize he was beside me, his hand wrapped around my arm and spraying tangles into my body. “ You need to rest for a while,” he said in a low tone, the worry in his eyes made me frown. “ Tell me what happened, '' he asked and I bit my lip. Did I hurt myself because I saw a snake? I raised my hand to touch my forehead but he grabbed it “ It might be a little but it will heal soon “ he said and I stared at his face in shock. How was it going to heal, I didn't even have a wolf. I bit on my bottom lip again feeling guilty for hiding it from him. But I didn't know what he would do once he came to find out. I didn't know anymore if keeping quiet was the best thing to do, did I want to tell him? “ Did someone do something to you?” His deep authoritative voice pulled me out of my thoughts and I stared up into his blue eyes. What? No! “ I think you are getting it wrong” I bit on my lip “ I tripped when I was trying to get away from a snake” I knew how

    ANNABELLA'S POV I woke up as early as possible and headed to the bathroom. Last night after he left, I only slept for a few minutes and that was early this morning. I knew I should be happy about him setting me free but the feeling I was getting wasn't close to that. I was more disappointed and scared than I should have been. I didn't know if I preferred being his property or living as a free woman. I sighed as I stared at my face in the mirror plus the white bandage that was around my head. I touched my forehead but I didn't feel any pain like I was supposed to. Roman might have been right because the more I pulled the bandage away, the less pain I felt. By the time the whole bandage was off my head, I realized I was completely healed which wasn't possible. I was a wolf less and healing should be slower. I was supposed to heal like a human but in this case, I healed in a few hours. I touched my forehead and couldn't explain it. Only my mate could have healed me this fa

    ANNABELLA'S POV I was calm but my inside was in chaos. I couldn't think because my mind was blank. Staring at his face didn't seem to help me think but I wasn't ready to look away. At that moment, I wished I could read what was going on inside his mind and maybe know what he was thinking. I wished he would tell me he was joking but he wasn't the type to joke around. I thought I would never get used to this pack but it feels like I was losing something important, a part of me, I guess. I didn't know I was this comfortable in his pack and also with him. Going rogue wasn't safe for a wolf-less one like me but there was no way I was going back to the shadow pack. I was sure the pack had forgotten about me and everything that had to do with my existence. I was pretty sure they were living well without me. “ Is it that easy for you to leave me?” my head snapped up and the cold look in his eyes displayed before me as he stepped closer, his gaze not breaking away from mine. He

    ALPHA ROMAN'S POV “ Did you find anything?” I stepped out of the woods in my wet black pants onto the quiet road with the rain beating heavily on the ground. “ We haven't found anything yet but we are hoping to, '' Vincent explained and my cold gaze ran over to the number of warriors in the river struggling to get the car out. “ The car is stuck in the river and whoever is inside the car is still breathing,'' he added but that wasn't what caught my attention. There was a strange smell in the air and I was sure it came from the river. It wasn't the first time something like this had happened on this highway. It was always one futile accident to another, most at times the victims appeared to be humans but I didn't think it was the same this time. I sniffed the air to be sure and I could smell blood in the air. The heavy rain wasn't helping or making it easy to smell anything but I wasn't any werewolf but an alpha and a powerful hybrid at that. I was half-demon, half-witch, and

    23 ALPHA ROMAN'S POV It turned out her name was Sarena and she was a beta female from the Full moon pack which was about thirty-nine miles away from us. “ We will send words to your family and let them know you're here,” I said turning away when she grabbed my hand. “ Please don't” she pleaded and my cold gaze moved to her hand which was holding my wrist. “ Why?” I didn't understand why she wanted her family to worry for nothing. I admit she was in bad shape but she was healing just like expected. A few days would be okay to get her bones back to normal.” I don't want them to worry, I promise to leave as soon as I recover” “ Find out everything you can about her and find out if she is telling the truth,” I told Vincent the moment I stepped out of the room and he nodded. She will be in my territory for days since she didn't want her family to know, I couldn't risk anything. The familiar scent caught my attention as I reached the entrance of the hospital building and I turned m

    24 ANNABELLA'S POV Madeline had already packed the food by the time I got downstairs. This time I didn't need directions to get to his office because I was almost familiar with the pack since I have been taking strolls lately. His office was quiet and the light was off signaling his absence. I wasn't sure how long I had been in here but long enough to know he wasn't coming. Long enough to give up but I decided to wait some more. Maybe he was in his way. Sitting on the couch with my eyes stuck to the door hoping he would walk in any minute but after waiting for what felt like an eternity I decided it was best I leave. He wasn't coming. I turned off the light and left his office. The atmosphere was dark but I wasn't in the mood for it. A few minutes to the pack house I decided to take a walk. Madeline wouldn't be in at that time and I wasn't in the mood for sleep. I headed towards the park. My inside was hurting, I could feel the twist each time I thought about him and her to

    ANNABELLA'S POV His cold dark blue eyes, white short hair, and perfect features sparkled under the multi-colored club light. I didn't realize what he was doing until I was completely out of the club room. I pulled my hand back from his grip and stepped back from him. Was he angry? Well, who cares? “ What the fuck are you doing here?” Was he angry, what did he care anyway? I stared down at his feet and felt a bit guilty for vomiting on him. I didn't mean it, it just probed out of my throat all of a sudden and I couldn't hold it in. “ Sorry about that,” I said trying to avoid his gaze, I didn't know why I was angry with him when I shouldn't be. “ You didn't answer my fucking question” I like to curse, I guess. I felt the sudden silence and when I looked up I noticed his gaze was behind me. “ Get inside the car” he growled and I didn't need him to say it twice because I could feel his anger which scared me a little bit. The tone of his voice was different, not the one that

    26 ANNABELLA'S POV He ditched me right in front of her and after waiting for him for hours he let Vincent drive me back. I stepped into the quiet clean kitchen and pulled the freezer open for a bottle of water. I wasn't in the best mood, last night's incident was a huge blow to my chest. And where was Madeline? I walked back from the kitchen to the dinner table. I took a sip of the water before dropping it on the table. I wasn't feeling great but the best thing was I was poking my lungs out. I was a bit okay on that part and I think I would be after a few rest. I just wasn't prepared to be shoved away like that but I guess that was my fate. That was how it has been from the onset since I could remember. Everyone was eventually going to get tired of me and leave me. What better fate awaits a wolf-less and rejected she-wolf like me? “ I guess it's harder this time” I took another sip before slamming it on the table and getting up to leave only to hear the door click o

Everything you need to know is in this file, I also found out about…” I raised my hand to stop him from saying more. It was enough that the matter with Juliet was partially resolved. I needed to settle it once, and for all; Juliet might be my step-sister, but there was a limit to everything. Trying to mislead my mate and getting her to believe that we had something going on was the height of it. I wouldn't have her mislead her. Bella misunderstood my intentions and mistook my care for something else. She got everything wrong and anticipated it wrongly.If anything, Juliet was just a step-sister, and I felt a responsibility towards her, her mother's death, and her sudden disappearance.I thought I could repay her for the lost time and, at the same time, honor my father's words, but I doubt I could continue at the expense of my bond with my mate.

    ANNABELLA'S POVWaking up in his tight embrace was the best thing I could ever dream of, his warm body against mine and his face an inch away. I raised my hand to push his hair back a little to get a proper view of his face. Everything felt great, having him beside me and having to look at him like this for the rest of my life. My hand slightly blushed against the smooth skin on his forehead.Even though his eyes were closed, he still looked as domineering as ever. Even in his sleep, he still exudes that cold and powerful aura. I suddenly recalled how soft his hair was and couldn't help but run my fingers through it.“ Good morning.” His deep hoarse voice poured as he moved my hand to his face and placed a kiss in my palm. ” You are awake.” I felt like he had been pretending to be asleep; his face looked the same as before. Not even sleep could change his handsome face but I felt his voice sounded more desiring than before. Was he sleeping?His dark blue eyes stared back silently at

    ANNABELLA'S POV The car halted the moment I flipped my eyes open. I scanned around and realized we were back to the pack, and it was already morning. ” Good morning.” I tried to pull up a bit in my seat but froze when I heard the familiar voice whisper. I let myself relax when I saw the two excitement lingering in his dark blue eyes. I didn't know what I was expecting, but seeing his handsome face early in the morning beside me made me feel at ease. I nearly thought last night was a mere dream but it turned out to be true. I was really with him, Roman and I spent the night together in his car. My eyes watered, realizing how much I had been craving him. How much I have missed him the past few days. Taking a closer look at him, he was the same as before, but I think he was much more handsome than before. His eyelashes seemed longer, and his eyes appeared a bit brighter. Staring at his disheveled short white hair, I wish I could run my hand through it. I wondered how it woul

    ALPHA ROMAN'S POVI was waiting for Zack to bring my car so I could go pick up the medication the pack ordered; the warriors needed to be treated as soon as possible to avoid complications; some had serious injuries, while others had to deal with just a little bruise that wasn't healing. Zack offered to go get it, but I dismissed him. I needed to clear my head, and maybe a little time for myself; the long drive might help me calm down.I didn't know how else I was going to make her believe me; she wanted to go rogue, like what the fuck!“ Alpha Roman.” Carolina walked down from the hospital building; I was standing beside Zack's faulty car, waiting for him to bring mine.” I heard you are driving to the city; I was wondering if I could join you.

    ANNABELLA'S POVI rubbed my hand on my flat belly, a look of confusion appearing in my eyes as I tried to understand what he said.I was pregnant? A part of me felt it too.And I felt he wasn't lying. Besides, Roman has never lied to me. I stared down at his phone which was still displaying the video from the restaurant. “ You are awake.” The door pushed open, and I frowned, seeing Madeline walk in. She was holding a tray of soup and wearing this happy face that I had barely seen her with. “ You need to eat something, don't starve yourself.” She placed the tray beside me on the bed, my hand still running my stomach in disbelief. I was pregnant and the father was Roman!I didn't know what Roman, being the father, had got on me, but I felt weird inside. “ You knew?” I sighed immediately, I asked, forgetting how much she follows every one of Roman's rules.“It was never my place to disclose anything to you, dear. Please don't be mad at him.” her eyes stared pleadingly at me." I'm t

    ALPHA ROMAN'S POV“ Her fainting is a result of an emotional breakdown, but she is fine now. It's normal to get emotional considering her situation.” My eyes stared at her emotionless body. “ How long is she going to beout?” “ She needs to have a good rest. In most cases, it takes hours, but considering who she is, I can't tell.” The pack's head doctor said and I immediately understood. Bella has a strong wolf and it was likely she would be conscious at any moment.” I will head back to the hospital and help take care of the injured warriors. I hope Luna recovers soon.” He bowed and then headed out. I stepped closer to move the strand of hair from her face, she looked too pale for someone who was okay. Fuck!I forgot to ask the doctor about the pregnancy.I pulled out my phone and dialed Vincent's number since I couldn't reach him through the kind link, which was a result of the recent disruption.” Find out how Bella's pregnancy is doing.” I ordered, “ Did something happen?"

This restaurant is owned by Caleb,” Dalia said proudly, and I immediately shook my head, not interested.” I don't feel like having anything.” “ Are you okay?” Caleb asked, even though his voice was a bit cold but the words blended very well with it. “ What are you saying? She replied, and I immediately sensed her jealousy. What a child's play! I went back to staring out the window. It has been a long since I came out, but I wasn't feeling any happiness. It was Sage's idea I ride with Caleb because the driver who brought me was his driver and he had something to take care of.

    ANNABELLA'S POV My eyes stuck out the window as the car drove on the road. Feeling the fresh air swept across my face, I felt like I had spent the longest time behind closed doors. The demon world was nothing like ours; while we lived close to nature and a bit away from humans, they lived in a hidden where almost everything was made accessible, not far from humans, though. The car halted in front of a huge building, and as I stepped down from the car, I let my eyes run around the place. It was quiet, and the walls were lifted with white paint. The surroundings made me wonder if it was a church, but it was too big for a church. “ Where is this place?” I asked the male demon who drove me down here. “ The elders are inside, lady Bella.” He kept his head down and addressed me the way everyone else did. I raised a brow; my eyes stared around for a while before starting towards the entrance, curious to know what this was about. ‘ Demons, ‘ Eve growled, and I rolled my eyes; what did I

    MADELINE'S POV I could see the pique of her curiosity. Every question she asked, I have answers but I couldn't disclose anything because it wasn't in my place to tell her. Watching her struggle wasn't easy for me. Bella was like a daughter to me. She was the one who elevated Roman from his darkness and I loved her. Lying to her wasn't what I intended but Roman didn't want her knowing everything. Initially, he was worried that she would leave him once she found out about her demon part, but now the alpha was scared she would put herself in danger if she found out the pack was going on a battle with the alpha king for her sake. Bella was a sweet girl, but she wasn't fortunate enough. Life as a golden wolf was something else; she was practically the most powerful wolf alive. In a world where power and strength determined one position, what did you think was bound to happen? As of now, I wasn't sure if she was safe anymore because Roman had enemies everywhere.
