ANNABELLA'S POV

The sound of drums hit my ears, and I thought it was weird, but not until it came repeatedly. The smell in the air was a bit different, it was like the energy was a bit different from usual.

My eyes flipped open, and the familiar ceiling I always wake to appeared before me. I sighed; it was just like the rest of the nights; I couldn't sleep the entire night, and each time I closed my eyes. The only thing I saw was the picture Kane showed me, I wasn't sure how long I was going to stay in the demon kingdom.

But I guess it was a bit better than living in the pack, where I would see Juliet's face every time.

My eyes landed on the clock against the wall the minute I sat up, and it was still early in the morning, not past my workout time.

I have been stepping inside the gym frequently recently because it helps me keep myself busy and speed up time. Thanks to the few times I trained with Vincent, I could grab a fist and throw a successful punch.

    ANNABELLA'S “ He is the first descendant of Lord Sage.” as if he sensed my face, he suddenly turned his face toward us, and I felt his eye on me. I didn't stare away even though his gaze seemed intense, his eyes were a bit grayish. “ That is lord Callicious.”Sophia stepped away from the side the moment Madeline appeared beside me. I turned to look at her and still I could feel him staring at me.” He is the biological father of Lord Sage's grandsons.” I immediately understood Sean, the asshole Kane and the cold freak Caleb. I knew Roman was only related to Sage because his mother was a half-demon, so I knew Roman wasn't Callicious’ son but just like Sage, Callicious has something in common with Roman. “ You should be careful around him especially since he is back.” I didn't understand what she meant but I understand she didn't want me anywhere close to him. “ Don't you think it's time I leave here?” If Roman didn't trust his family, then why did he bring me here? “ I'm sorr

    ANNABELLA'S POV “ Is that a yes?” I shook off his hand, which was holding mine, and immediately got rid of my hallucinations. Thank the goddess, it wasn't real, even though I wished I could make it real and shut him up for good. My eyes scanned around the huge hall, and most of the guests were dancing to the slow music playing in the background while others were standing in groups, chatting and laughing. Sophia was still talking with some guest and I wondered what would have happened if I had slapped him. Well, they would obviously not take it well; I blushed the stupid thoughts away. Kane might be an asshole and a jerk, but I couldn't possibly forget he was Sage's grandson, and I was in his territory, so even if I wanted to slap him so badly, I certainly would do that. Everyone here was a demon except me so who do you think would lose if I do something stupid as slapping a demon lord? “ I can provide you as much evidence as you please, but don't forget everything has

    ANNABELLA'S POVThe three empty spots at the breakfast table were soon filled by two, Caleb and Sean. Sean, who happened to be the first grandson of Sage and was barely around, sat next to me while Caleb, who seemed a little distant from everyone except his fiance, sat next to her.I learned her name was Dalia, and the two looked good together even though Caleb barely looked at her. She has long blue hair and almost ten piercings on both ears and nose piercings, which I have seen a lot around here. Demons surely have a way of dressing and appearing beautiful. I never knew tongue piercing was a big deal until I got here, a lot of them have this piercing And while others appeared beautiful, others too appeared a little bit weird.“ How did it go?” Sage lifted his head.” All good; everything has been taken care of, but we can't let our guard down.” Sean explained and he nodded, hemming at the end.The servants came forward to serve the food, and soon, the room went quiet.

    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.

    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

    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

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?"

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.

    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

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.
