ANNABELLA'S POV“ What do you mean by, she is fine?” My father asked the pack doctor. None of us understood what he was saying. “ Just like I have just told you, Luna is fine.” He repeated the same words he said earlier and Olivia and I stared at each other. Olivia and I have been a bit okay with each other since I arrived. Her bitchy attitude towards me has slid down not like she was the nicest sister but I would prefer this side of hers over the old Olivia who hated my guts.“ Luna's not sick as before, in fact, she is healed and we can't detect any trace of sickness in her.” I could tell everyone in the room was shocked, including my mother herself. “ This is the check result.” He handed the result to my father. How was that possible? A few days ago she was diagnosed with a serious heart disease that her wolf couldn't even stand and now she was cured?“ How is that possible?” My father asked and the doctor sighed. “That is what I want to find out,” I could see the frown on my fat
ALPHA ROMAN'S POV“ Everything okay?” Vincent asked as he halted beside me.” How did it go?” I asked, handing his phone back.” The deal has been signed.” I nodded and started towards the packing space to get the fuck out of the blood moon pack. I wasn't sure what the problem was but seeing the line suddenly go off put me in a difficult situation.“ Roman” Vincent called after me but I didn't stop.“ Alpha George wants to have dinner with you. He has arranged everything,” Vincent said and I turned to stare back at the alpha building which was behind us. I could see Alpha George standing on the balcony looking at us.” He wanted to thank you for renewing the alliance that exists between the two packs.” Vincent explained and I couldn't help but fucking sign.” Send someone to check on Bella.” I ordered before turning back. I wish this dinner thing wasn't in the picture so I could go and check on my mate but I have to do this, at least for the pack. “ On it.” Vincent said.“ Welcome back alph
ANNABELLA'S POV I flipped my eyes when I heard the sound of the opening door.” Your mother told me you haven't eaten anything.” Did he even care? Why did that even matter? " Come on, it's your favorite, your mother made it for you," I didn't know he remembered my favorite food. “ Where is Zion?” I asked and he sighed. “ Not now, just eat your food.” He said. " You haven't done anything to him, have you?" I didn't want anything to happen to him, at least not because of me. “ Leave it there.” He ordered the omega and she walked over and placed the tray on the bed. I still have no idea why I was locked up in this room, and why they didn't want me to contact Roman. “ What do you want with me?” I didn't know how to put it. I was still confused as to what happened. Everything happened so fast that I didn't even get to process the whole thing. No one was telling me anything. Everyone was behaving weirdly and telling me to calm down. “ Whatever money I collected from Alpha Roma
ANNABELLA'S POV“ You better make up your mind, the alphaship of this pack will not be transferred to another family.” His stern tone made me hold my breath, I shut my eyes to calm my beating chest. This couldn't be happening to me, no it couldn't be happening. I wanted it to be a dream but unfortunately, it wasn't. My father was manipulating my life again without considering what I wanted.“ Does that mean you are ready to do anything?” I whispered, flipping my eyes open. Even though I knew the answer I still asked.My expression was calm but very painful.“ I will do anything to make that doesn't happen.” He said and I bit my bottom lip in disappointment, he has always been that kind of man. His title and pack meant a lot to him. Maybe his family just that I didn't matter that much to him." What about my happiness, are you going to always force me to your bidden?" I felt like I knew the answer to this as well." You can't be happy without any of this, this pack was handed to me by
ANNABELLA'S POV‘ I don't want to run.’ Eve said and I frowned. Was she going to let herself be caught? ‘You can't make a stop.’ I told her and she stopped, turning her head back to look.’ We stand and fight.’ she said and I growled at her, opposing the idea.’ There are a lot of them, Eve.’ I said in fear, I was sure my father wouldn't let us go. Not after what happened, if we get caught, it would be the end of us. Alpha Christopher, the man I knew wouldn't let us live a second more. I was afraid he might lock us in the dungeon this time.’ I can take them down.’ she said but I wasn't sure if I wanted to see that. She might be able to do that but I didn't want to know more than I have. We have come a long way to let them get us.’ I think it better we run for dear life.’ I said pleadingly and Eve growled before starting to run.The night breeze was cold, I could feel it brushing through Eve's golden fur as she ran through the dark woods. Her fierce step resounded in the air with her lo
ALPHA ROMAN'S POV“ Roman” Her body started shaking as she whispered my name, fear dangling in her eyes as she stared at me and her beautiful green eyes clouded with tears I didn't know what happened but I planned to visit the man and have him explain to me why his warriors were chasing after my mate in the middle of the night but it seemed I didn't have to anymore since he was here himself.“ Please, don't let him take me?” She pleaded and I stood up from my seat and pulled her in my arms. “ What did he do to you?” by this time my eyes had already turned colder, maybe it was time the shadow pack disappeared from the chart. Alpha Christopher was biting more than he could chew and I wouldn't condole it especially when it has to do with my mate. ‘ What do you think, Xade?’ I linked my wolf and he growled in agreement. He had never liked Alpha Christopher anyway.“ Don't let him take me.” I turned my gaze on her and I didn't like how scared she was. “ Roman” Vincent called but I didn
ANNABELLA'S POV‘ Don't let her leave!’ the distant growl made me jot out of my sleep as my eyes stared around the dark room, my heart hammering in my chest, feeling sweat all over my face.It took me a minute to realize it was just a nightmare. A bad nightmare or should I say a reminder of what happened that night perhaps my father's anger?I moved my hair from my face with a tired look in my eyes, I hadn't had a good sleep in a while and it was all because of that night. I shut my eyes for a few seconds before pushing it open and staring up at the ceiling above me. It has been more than a week since the incident with my mother happened but it has been from one nightmare to another. I didn't seem to forget it and it was wearing me off. I tagged my long-colored hair from my face and turned to sit up on the bed. I wish I never killed my mother, the thought of it makes me feel awful about myself. It has been from one nightmare to another since that day and I have a feeling my father,
ANNABELLA'S POV“I will leave you two.” Madeline excused herself back to the kitchen.” “ You have a nice place.” She said as I led her to the dining. I was sure she was staring around.“ You look different.” She said as I sat on the chair that Roman usually takes, the one at the head of the table.I was expecting to hear that but what I wasn't expecting was to see her in the pack especially when she wasn't a part of the Turners pack.” How did you find me?” I never mentioned my pack to her or anyone in the school, not like she ever asked maybe we weren't familiar enough with each other to know that much. I knew Kelly was from the full moon pack which was a few miles away from the Turners pack and on the west side.” I figured it out myself even though it was a bit stressful but it was wealth it.” She said and I stared silently at her for a while.“ Eat your breakfast before it gets cold!” Madeline shouted from the kitchen and I didn't have a choice but to start with the breakfast.” I
ALPHA ROMAN'S POV“ I was able to track Juliet, and she lives among the humans; I followed her and discovered a few more things about her. 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. I needed to pick a few bandages for the hospital “ “ Write everything down and hand it to me, I will get them,” I replied, my face was cold as usual. “ I don't mean to question you but….” He paused, my intense gaze shifting to her.” I don't h
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?" Vince
ANNABELLA'S POV “ How about we have lunch?” “ What do you think Bella?” I pulled my gaze from the window with less interest.” We are planning to have lunch on our way, do you want to join us? 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. The car took a turn and halted in front of a fancy building. ‘ Humans.’ Eve's bored voice made me roll my eyes. I wasn't sure what I was thinking when I took Callicious’ offer seriously, but it wouldn't hurt
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. The demon ki
