Alpha Rhys

It took me less than twenty minutes to get home. I did my best to drive as fast as I could just so I could meet up. I didn't want to keep Evans waiting. I'm certain he has other patients to attend to at the clinic.

As soon as I arrived at the palace, I noticed that Craig's car was outside in the parking lot. I wonder what he was doing at the palace.

Shaking off the feeling, I went straight to Mia's room and knocked on the door.

I could hear the sound of feet and shuffling in the room.

Could she be busy?

I knocked again.

I need her to hurry up. I don't want to keep Evans waiting.

"Mia?" I called out.

"Coming," she said.

Just as I raised my hand to knock again, the door opened.

Mia stood there dressed in a robe. She only wears this robe when she's about to or has just taken a shower.

"HI," she said.

She sounded breathless like she had been breathing heavily.

"Are you okay?" I asked her "Your breathing isn't even"

"Oh" she smiled "I'm fine. Don't worry about it. I was just ge

    Arabella's POV"I'm ready to go back to the Frostbite pack", I told him. I thought about it carefully. My discussion with Jenny was all I needed to make up my mind. Earlier, I looked at myself in the mirror. Jenny wasn't lying when she said that I don't look the same way I did five years ago. I had added a bit of weight due to childbirth. My facial structure had changed. I didn't have any scars. My hips were noticeably wider and curvier. It'll be hard for anyone to recognize me. Apart from that, I learned to do makeup over the years by watching YouTube videos in my spare time. It shouldn't be too hard to disguise myself. As soon as I said those words, I could see the expression on Jack's face change. "What?" he asked "Why?" There's only one reason I'm doing this. I'm doing this because of Delinda. Left to me, I'll never step foot in that pack till I die but my baby girl is sick. It hurts my heart to see her health deteriorate. It hurts even more when I know there's something I

I don't have too many belongings so it didn't take too much time. I just packed clothes for my kids and for me too along with the essentials that they'll need. I stared at the living room, taking a deep breath as I looked around for what felt like the last time. I'm going to miss this house. This is one place that truly felt like home. It holds so many memories, mostly good ones. I can't wait to come back here. Jack came down the stairs, holding a box filled with my belongings. "Is that the last box?" I asked him. "Yes," he breathed heavily "What do you have in here anyway? Why is it so heavy?"I shrugged with a smile "A girl has her secrets"He rolled his eyes "Women"I chuckled. He left the house with the huge box he carried. With a heavy sigh, I took one last look at the house befo

    ARABELLAI stared into the mirror as I slipped into the elegant, deep red gown that I had chosen for tonight. I purposely chose a gown that would hug all my curves.I don't want to look like the old Arabella I once was. I don't want people to have a trace of the old me at all. It's a new era and I have to act like it. I couldn't help but feel a strange mix of anticipation and dread. Tonight, I would return to the palace for dinner as a person that nobody knows yet I know most of them. How ironic. I had done a good job with my makeover. It wasn't too much but it was enough to hide most of my natural facial features. Arabella, the girl they once knew, was gone. The old Arabella is replaced by Emma, a woman no one could possibly recognize. If I said things were easy for me, I'd be lying... I'm scared out of my mind. At a point I thought to myself; is it really worth it? Do I have to do this? I believe I do, to grow. Rhys, my sister, and the others who had betrayed me would be th

    ARABELLA POV“I can’t believe you’re getting married,” Lily said.I turned away from the mirror to face her. “Do you think I could be potentially making a mistake?”Lily laughed and playfully slapped my arm. “Don’t be silly, Arabella. You thought about this for months. You even went through the painful process of telling everyone your identity.”I smiled at the memory of that. “Yeah, it went surprisingly well. People took it in pretty well.”“You know the one they took in the most? The arrest and public death of Mia.”My mood dampened just a bit. My half sister was killed two weeks ago and here I was, getting married to the man she was previously married to. Rhys asked me not to overthink it as he wasn’t even hers to begin with, and I was working towards that step. I turned to Lily again.“Do you think James and Jenny would make it? They promised that they would show up today and they’re not here yet.”Lily slapped her forehead in embarrassment. She’s been slapping a lot of things lat

    RHYS POVI stood outside the boys’ quarters, thinking of how best to go over this. If Jack wanted us to talk about whatever he wanted to talk about, then this was a big secret opener. I was dying to see just how much secret he was willing to uncover, and that included Mia.She was dancing when I stepped into her room. As always, it was open and inviting, as if she was waiting for the day when I would finally accept her. Was she expecting that day to be today? Had she done all this just because she wanted me?Yes, dumb ass. Yes.I ignored my wolf voice and cleared my throat. She stopped dancing and smiled brightly at me, as if I was the sunshine at the end of her tunnel.“You’re here,” she said, wiping her brows with a face towel.“And you’re dancing,” I commented. “What’s the occasion?”“You’ve confined me to this mean, smelly place and I have to get used to it, Rhys.” She gulped down a glass of water. “The fact still remains that I’m your wife and I will be until I sign the divorce p

First my children gets kidnapped, then after 24 long, excruciating hours, I go to get them and discover they had somehow managed to free themselves. Then I stupidly went into to the cabin instead of running away with them only to get kidnapped again and have a gun pointed at me.“Your children was a handful,” the first man said. “That is not surprising. I see now where they got it from. You do know we can’t leave you alive after this?”I immediately clasped my hands together in prayer. “Please, I’m begging you with the almighty name of the moon goddess, please let us go. I swear I’ve packed all my things! I’m ready to leave now.”He shook his head. “You’ve seen our face, lady. I wish there was some other way to not kill you—”The door burst open, forcing a startled scream out of me. The kidnapper in front of me trembled. I angled my body to the side and shifted

    ARABELLA POV“What are you going to do now?” Lily asked me. “Do you have any plans on how to tackle this?”I paused my restless pacing and turned to her. “I’m burnt out, Lily. I don’t know what to do! I’ve tried to think of every possible thing but nothing. Rhys isn’t even helping matters. He thinks Mia is innocent simply because she hasn’t left the house in days!”“And the kidnappers want you to leave?”“Yes! They clearly said no money, that I should just leave. Who else would not want money and ask me to leave?”She cocked her head at me as both of our mind went to Mia. She was the only sworn enemy that I had that would dare though my children and go Scot free. Thinking about it made by blood boil. I wanted to grab her hair and force her head into a hot oven…“Okay, you’re making that face again, “ Lily said. “We just need to think about what to do next, Arabella. I know this must come as a shock…”“It’s quite the shock, Lily.”“But we have better things to do like waiting for the k

    Arabella PovI realized I was vibrating with fear and doom. I needed to calm down, but the thought of my children going through the most traumatic experience of their life was chilling to the bone. Why was it only them that was kidnapped out of all the children coming to school? The kidnappers had technically been aiming for me and my children. I glanced at Mia. It was her. It had to be her. There were no other logic asides the fact that Mia has a vindictive aura towards me and she was not afraid to use them.I turned my back to them and spoke into the phone. “What do you want, please? Can you just let my children go, please? I’ll do anything.”‘Of course you’ll do as you’re told, Dr. Emma, or you’ll never see your children again.”I shivered once more, bracing myself as I asked the most important question. “What do you want then? Is it money? How much would you need to let my kids go?”“You insult us, Dr. Emma. We don’t need your money. We only need you to do one thing and we’ll retu

    ARABELLA POVI was very upset, and rightfully so too. I thought about Rhys every day for five days, mostly wondering if he didn’t want to let Mia go. Did he trust her enough to be sure that she hadn’t killed his father? If only I had enough time then to pressure the guy more so he would tell me the truth about Mia. She certainly had more wicked things up her sleeve and I was very desperate to reveal them to the world.“Dr. Emma, you’ve wiped that post four times in a row now,” a nurse said.I jerked back into consciousness and realized that I was in the hospital, wiping a patient’s wrist over and over so I coke inject their antibiotic for them. Murmuring my apologies, I quickly gave them their dose and stood up.“You look tired,” the nurse who had called my attention said. “You can go home; I’ll cover your shift for you. I’m not sure I want to see you dozing off the rest of your days here.”“I’m fine,” I saidSpacing out. I was constantly spacing out because I was concerned for Rhys an

It would really sick if he had to hear from a strange prisoner that his mother was involved in a crime.Once I left him in the car and locked it, I ran back to the cell. My heart was drumming with excitement. I imagined that prisoner holding Mia’s picture and announcing that she was the one who had made the order. Oh, that would make so much sense! However, when I joined Rhys minutes later, I noticed that he was silent and now holding the picture, having collected it back from the Rogul. The Rogul was snacking heavily on the food I brought, which I now every much regret since the mood wasn’t what I expected it to be.“What did he say?” I asked Rhys, a note of desperation in my voice. “He was holding Mia’s picture, right?”

    ARABELLA POVI had a plan. A grand, beautiful plan. Rhys was going to be here anytime soon and he would be solely against it, which means I have to be wise towards it. I knocked once on the children’s door before opening it. They were laughing and walking about, looking for the perfect fit.“Mom!” Delinda cried when she saw me. “Do you think I should wear a dress to the park? I can’t seem to find the perfect fit.”I smiled reassuringly as I remained at the door. “You don’t need to stress to much, my darling. You guys should all wear shorts and shirt—you can wear a skirt, Delinda—and carry a backpack too.”Damon frowned. “A back pack?”“Yeah. It’ll make you looo smart, like a professor.”I knew they would accept readily to what I said, yet I waited on high tension. When they finally agreed to dress like professors and carry their backpack, I grinned. Earlier today in the morning, I came across Bruno’s backpack and I slipped in Mia’s picture in it.

When he was brought back from rhe hospital, Rhys took him away and said he wanted to take him to a recovery center. How long do recovery centers usually take? Did Arabella put this idea into his head?Oh, Arabella, that wench!I laughed wildly as I continued to pace around. She thought she won this time, didn’t see?

She’s not going to win against me. The deadly wench is not going to win me.“You do not get to have the last laugh!” I roared loudly, and then fell to my bedroom floor in a beep.My hair was a mess. With everything going awry, I haven’t give my much thought to how untidy I’d been. That was fine; it didn’t matter what I looked like. I would have every single thing I’d ev
