Chapter 4

Meanwhile, Gerald sat down on the sofa with a sad frown on his face. It has been two weeks now and she was still missing

"Where would she have gone to? What might have happened to her?" The thoughts kept on ringing in his head.

He heard footsteps and he turned around to see who it was. It was Bella.

She made her always remember him, the look on her face, her hair. They were perfect look alikes apart from the figure and their Faces.

He could see the tears written all over her eyes as she walked gradually towards him.

Fresh tears poured down from her eyes and the scent of it was rising to his nose. He hated it so much because it made him remember her, leaving him heartbroken right from the inside of him and he hates the feeling so much that be could tears apart whoever it was that was giving him that feel right into a million pieces

"What do you want? I thought I told everyone to leave me alone and that I needed to be left alone. So what are you doing here?" He inquired.

But she ignored his Inquiries. Knowing that he was nothing but hurt.

"It's been two weeks since she went missing and still, there is no trace of her. I don't think that she is ever going to return." She said but the Words got him so angry that he almost forgot that he was talking with the grandmother of his mate and he tried as hard as he could to restrain himself.

"Don't say that. She is going to come back to me and I am going to make sure that I do everything in my power to make sure that I get her." He said in a half yell.

She paused for a while. It seemed as though he was scared to say what he was about to say to her.

She sighed briefly.

"I don't know how to say this but I just have to say it. It might break you even more but.." she wanted to say but did realize when more tears poured down from her eyes.

His eyebrow raised as he thought about what could break him even more than he already was but he could not think of anything that could make Cohen so potent.

"I am the Alpha and nothing can ever break me. So you better say what you want to say." He noted.

He stared at her for a while. She was afraid to say but finally, she opened her mouth to say whatever it was that she wanted to say.

"The reason that she left that day instead of the day that she had informed you initially was because she was too excited and she wanted to say it to you as soon as possible." She explained.

But he could not get a word of what she was trying to say to him.

"And what was that?" He Inquired.

"She was pregnant." She noted as fresh tears poured down from her eyes and he seemed to be broken right from the inside.

There was a hot sensation in his blood, forcing what had never been heard of before.

But he was able to push it back. She could not notice anyone.

What they had waited for all those years finally came. He could feel his wolf growling and kicking inside of him because the pain from the mate bond was just way too much but he was able to subdue it.

"No! It can't happen. I will have to find her." He yelled out from the top of his voice and got up to leave. To go for his beta. Xander.

But before the Alpha could get to the door and part it open. He was about to go for his beta but he was already walking toward him From the looks on his face, something was a miss but he could not tell what exactly it was.

"Tell me that you found her because she is my child. You can't allow anything to happen to her or I am going to make sure that you are beheaded. Right before everyone in the pack." I assured him but he only bowed his head for a while before looking up to me.

He raised his head slowly at me and he signed.

"I am sorry Alpha Gerald but." He wanted to say but there was a sudden pause.

"But what?" Alpha Gulther yelled at him.

But he did not say anything again. He raised a piece of cloth slowly up to his face and it was the shirt that he bought for her and her twentieth year birthday. Her phone and her wristwatch. But what was he doing with all of that?

"We found this on the river bank. I think.." he noted.

Alpha Gerald crashed on the sofa and supported his head with the back of his palms.

"No!!!" Be yelled at the top of his voice with his heart beating hard against his chest as though they were going to burst through.

"Everyone leave, right this moment." He ordered and without saying anything, everyone Walked away from the place.

While he sat on the sofa, he heard the sound of someone walking into the place and a growl formed on his.

"Who could have had the guts to flaunt my order?" He thought.

Then he perceived the mate's scent and he almost limped out of his seat, only to discover that it was another person than Helena.

"I heard about it." She noted sobbing. "And I am sorry about it."

Six months later 

That was about six months ago when the wounds were still fresh in his heart.

"Alpha Gerald, you Cannot keep on doing this to yourself. You are the Alpha and you need a Luna by your side. And we are mates, Alpha Gerald." He heard Helena saying but he was barely listening to her

"You can never replace her, get that into your head." He frowned.

"What if this is the reason that I was mated to you Alpha Gerald? And I love you and I am going to give you the heir." She wanted to say but he would not allow her to complete her statement

"That would be just enough for you already. I am still the Alpha and I order you right now to leave." 

She knew that she could not disobey and she walked away slowly.

She saw Bella walking towards his room and she brushed past with so much anger. A bitter Alpha was not what she planned for.

Bella Walked in and stared at Gerald.

"What do you want again? me?" He inquired.

"I miss her too but I think she is right and you should look for someone better. The Moon Goddess is going to bless you, knowing well that you loved my granddaughter so much. And if what she is saying about being your mate is true, then you should go on and accept her." She mumbled out her advice and did not even realize when tears escaped from her eyes.

****** **** ***** ****** *** **** *******

Seven years later.

A dark smile hovered on her lips as she sat on the Sofa and yelled at the head maid

"What's wrong With you fool? Get me a hot bath right this moment. Don't you see that I am With the Alpha's child?" Helena thundered at the head maid.

She had gotten what she searched for all this while, being the Luna of the pack.

Yes, Gerald finally accepted after much persuasion from the people and the only person that Could steal this position from her was long dead. 

The smile that was hanging on her face broadened Even more.

"But Luna Helena. You asked for.." The head maid wanted to say but she would not allow her to spit out a single word from her mouth.

"You fool. Are you supposed to question me? I thought that you are supposed to get what I want. Or do you want me to inform your Alpha that you disobeyed me when he returns?" She thundered at him.

"No, certainly not. I will do as you say right away." She returned.

"You better." She thundered as the head Maid walked away.

"So this is what that fool has been enjoying. Too bad for her, I am Now in this position instead of her and no one will be able to take this position away from me." She smiled.

Meanwhile, Willow was in the human city with her three triplets. She had decided to remain in the city. She was not going to return to that Adulterous werewolf that always pretends as though he loved her when he knows that he doesn't.

Having sex With her sister, she clutched her hands tightly

She worked in a hotel now and she had to get ready for work and prepare the triplets for school.

It wasn't an easy job but she was going to go through the pain of raising them.

She stared at the shaving mirror that she held in her hands. Her left hand skimmed through the outlines of her face.

Or she would say her New face. A face that she was new to and she felt like a total stranger to herself.

The accident had so much disfigured her that she had some plastic surgery to reshape her face so that she would not be looking like some monster or beast from hell.

She sighed deeply and could already feel tears forming in the corner of her eyes.

"I am going to make sure that you pay for it, Gerald. I am going to make that possible but not now, first, I will have to get my things taken care of by my lovely kids."

"Is that his name? Gerald? Sounds like a cool name." She heard one of her children, Henry, saying as she turned around towards him With a disapproving frown but she already knew him way too well.

He was someone that would not be chased away so easily.

"What are you talking about Henry? And how long have you been listening?" She Inquired.

"Long enough to know that this Gerald that you are talking about did something terrible to you. He affirmed.

He stared at him for a while. He looked so much like his Father. More like a carbon copy but she was going to make sure that he is nothing like the beast.

"And how long have I warned you about evedropping?" She shot at him and he gave her the baby look that always melted her heart.

"I am sorry Mom." He apologized but the others had already gotten a bit of what the discussion was all about.

"But Mom. Did Dad hurt you? Was that the reason that you left it?" She Heard Fred saying.

"Or do we even have secret siblings that we know absolutely nothing about?" Jace said with his cheeks turning pick.

"Snap out from it all of you. Where are you guys getting all of this from?" She inquired.

"Our neighbor's daughter said that is the reason that her mom left her dad and she had a sister so we thought?" Fred wanted to say but she would not allow him to complete his statement.

"Stop imagining stuff. I have told you. Your dad is an officer and he went for some external duty and soon, he will be with us." She explained but she knew that they were already bored by this.

"But when is it ever going to be? I am already tired of waiting and I can't wait anymore to see Dad." Henry added.

"As I have always said. Soon. And that would be the end of this discussion for all of you."

"But Mom, why is it that you barely talk about him?" Fred inquired.

"Because you all are going to get late for school and I am going to be late for work if you don't shut up and let's get going." She yelled but she knew that was not going to work.

"Please." She pleaded with them and they nodded their heads.

•••• •••• ••••• •••• •••• ••••• •••• ••• •••

She arrived at work just a few minutes before the time. She was already panting hard for breath as she stared at her wristwatch.

"Thank God that I am not late." She noted.

"Only god knows if I will be able to live without This job to take care of me and my children." She Said to herself.

She went to the registry and greeted the receptionist.

"Good day Sophia, how are you doing?" She greeted With a smile hanging on her face.

"I fine? How about you?" She returned.

She was about to return With a response When something really strange happened. Something that made her pause for a while

She heard a strange pattern of feet and she raised her head to see who it was. It wasn't something to stop but her heart rate seemed to go way faster.

She looked up and noticed that there were two men there. Her boss and another man a little bit began.

As she stood there, she could not tell why but she was Frozen on the spot.

She seemed to know this strange man beside him, only from his Aura but she just couldn't remember where and how.

"Why don't you find out?" A voice rang in 

Her head.
