ANNABELLA'S POVKelly was picked up by her sister on Sunday evening, who turned out to be the female Roman saved on the highway on the night of the heavy storm, and the surprising thing was she didn't seem to be over Roman. I didn't know how I knew she liked him but I was sure she did.She didn't look happy when Kelly introduced me as Roman's mate.To cut it short, Kelly and I said our goodbyes on Sunday, promising me she was going to reject Alpha Diago once she got back into the pack. I received a message from her after a few hours telling me Alpha Diago had accepted her rejection, and she wasn't in good health. I typed back and told her to get some rest. The bastard didn't deserve her after all.Soon, morning took over and it was Monday, and I had to report to school, which I wished I didn't have to, especially when Roman was going on a run with Juliet under Carolina's influence. She said it would be good for her health and her memories. She advised taking her to familiar places,
JULIET'S POV I have always thought about my life in the club until he found me, alpha Roman from the Turners pack. All indications and evidence showed that I was the step-sister he was searching for. At first, I didn't want to have anything with him, but I didn't have a choice. Refusing a man like him was just like digging my own grave and I didn't want the club to be affected by any of it. Plus, he looked like he would kill to get me out of there if necessary, just like he killed my last customer, who was brutally abusing me the time he came into the private room. I guess he thought I was a push, so he wanted to defend me, but that action of his made me feel a bit important and wanted. The feeling of someone having your back wrapped around me as I felt like I wasn't alone anyone. Alpha Roman made me feel protected for the first time in seventeen years. What was the fate of a girl who didn't remember her past or her family? Of course, the club was my home and everything.
As much as he loved his mate, I knew he had a soft spot for his step-sister, and I would take advantage of that and make him mine!I watched him as he hid behind the trees to get dressed. I couldn't stop myself from admiring his figure as he stepped out of the trees with his heavily built chest and supper great shape. My eyes ran down his sexy-looking body to his six-pack before going back to look at his cold yet handsome face. He was everything a woman would die for: handsome, rich, and, most of all, powerful. He was everything most men would wish to be. His body was in great shape. He was the kind of man that every female would want to fuck for free in the club, not like I would mind having a free night with him.He was super hot, and none of the girls in the club would want to miss the opportunity of being fucked by such a hottie, the thought takes my inside twitch. I didn't know the kind of man I wanted until I met him, my stepbrother, alpha Roman.“It has been years since anyo
ANNABELLA'S POV“ We have thirteen groups hunting for nine treasures, and each of the treasures contains a different parcel. The more parcels you get, the closer you are to claiming the price. The more you hunt, the more you closer you are to bringing the winner for this year's treasure hunt game! The group that emerges as the ultimate winner will be rewarded handsomely by the school. I believe all of you have your wolves!” “ Yes, sir!” we all shouted in unison. “ What do you think the reward will be for this year's game?” Kiran asked and Florence cleared her throat.“ Maybe a free trip to the royal pack,” she said and Kelly giggled. “ That is a small price compared to all the stress we are going to go through.” Kelly dragged her feet and took a stand at the leg side.” I don't think any of you have been to the royal pack,” Florence rolled her eyes as her gaze settled on me. I didn't know the royal pack was such a big deal, but I guess I owe it to Roman.“ I heard they have the highe
ANNABELLA'S POVAt first, I thought it was insane walking in a forest with a map, but after my group and I discovered one treasure, I became overwhelmed with the whole thing. We didn't know what was inside yet but I was excited and couldn't wait to discover more.I was lucky my group was made of two boys and a girl plus me. “ Bella.” I stopped when we got to a junction with two roads ahead. “ The map ends here,” I told the other girl; her name was Amanda, and she seemed nicer than she appeared. “ Does that mean we stop here?” One of the boys asked, and I learned his name was Brooke; he seemed to be very close to Amanda, and I think I had seen him in the school a couple of times, not like Amanda, whom I had just met. Most of the students I saw today on the field weren't familiar, and I guess that was because Rivers was huge, with quite a number of wolves attaining education.“ Let me check.” The other boy named Hens collected the map and, after looking at it closely, he shoved it back
ANNABELLA'S POV“ You can?” Amanda lifted her face to look at me, her eyes were red and filled with tears.” Let's hurry and get out of here; the hospital is not far from here. Maybe the doctors can help him, Brooke can't be infected.” She pleaded, my eyes settling on Brooke's wolf.Aside from being ruthless, rogues were feared for their carefree lives. “ Let me,” I stepped forward before going down on my knees. ‘ You just need to concentrate.’ Eve encouraged as I stretched my palm on his injury; I took in a slow breath since this was my first time trying to save someone. I wasn't sure how, but Eve made sure I believed in my healing powers. And since she did, I couldn't doubt it. I recalled healing my mother and unintentionally healing a pregnant woman with complications. Golden glows suddenly emerged from the tip of my fingers and I stared at the magic so calmly. It was working! A warm feeling slipped through my chest as I stared at my glowing fingers. I was indeed a royal wolf w
ALPHA ROMAN'S POV A slight knock pulled my attention to the door as it pulled open.” Roman.” The familiar voice resounded in the room, and I stared up at her smiling face.” Do you need anything?” I asked, leaning in my seat and she shook her head strongly. I sighed, I thought as much; Vincent had already taken care of everything, starting from her basic needs to the mansion, which I was sure was done by now.“ I'm ready to move into the mansion,” she said, and I stared down at the documents before me.” I will help you get by.” I closed the file and stood on my feet.” You don't need to bother if you are busy.” she said, but I still left my seat and started towards the door.” I hope I recall all my memories very soon.” She said and I couldn't wish for something else. I also hoped she would recall everything as soon as possible; I needed to get to the bottom of the matter once and for all. “ I will try my best and remember everything about that night.” She assured as she stopped an
ALPHA ROMAN'S POV “ Roman, my stuff…..” “ Zion will help you with anything you need.” I turned and said to her before striding out of the mansion with Vincent behind me.” How long has she been there?” I asked hoping she was okay.” A few hours have passed.” He replied and felt like punching him in the face, so why the fuck was I just hearing about it? What if something bad happens to her?This wasn't fucking happening. “ She is with three other students.” I didn't say anything as I was currently getting inside my car.“ Shouldn't we bring a few warriors with us?” Vincent climbed in the driving seat.” Take the main road.” I instructed, ignoring his question. I didn't want to think something had happened to her, but she was in danger; the rogue forest wasn't a lively place for a pack wolf. Rogues were malicious creatures, and it would take them only a few seconds to sense Bella's strength and see her as a threat.” I don't think we should go there alone ““ What, do you think I can't p
ANNABELLA'S POVI growled painfully as I slowly lifted my head. My view was blurred, but after blinking for a few minutes, I slowly regained my sight. I could feel my head banging but the unfamiliar space caught my attention. As my gaze ran around the space, I finally was able to feel the soft mattress underneath me. I felt my movement restricted when I tried to move my hand only to realize my wrists were tied together, so easy legs.The severe headache I was feeling wasn't allowing me to think or understand what was going on.”Ahh.” I let out a growl as I tried to move even though it felt impossible.Was I kidnapped?I tried to recall, but the only thing I remembered was meeting up with Kelly at one of the human restaurants close to the pack because I didn't want Roman to get worried about me. And then leaving the restaurant with Kelly right after a few hours of chatting.I gulped when the last image of me stepping out of the restaurant with Kelly flashed into my memory. I suddenly f
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
