Alpha Rhys’ POV

After my walk with Craig that night, we said good night to each other before parting ways.

With a heavy heart, I went straight to my bedroom. After a long shower, I laid on my bed.

I stared at the ceiling, lost in thought. The events of today still weighed heavily on my mind. Another event that stuck to my memory is the occurrence that happened tonight with the couple.

My mind wandered back to the fight the couple had. The man was certain his wife had been unfaithful due to the pain he usually feels in his chest.

I’m aware that when one mate is cheating, the other mate can feel an excruciating pain in the chest. I’ve never heard of a mate cheating without the other one knowing about it. That’s the power and proof of a true mate bond.

I wonder if Mia ever felt that pain in her chest when I used to cheat on her. If she did, wouldn’t she have confronted me about it?

    Arabella’s POVI was enjoying my beauty sleep until loud voices woke me up.It sounded like people chanting or singing rather.“Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday to you”I opened my eyes and sat up slowly on my bed. Damon, Declan and Delinda stood in front of my bed with smiles on their beautiful faces.Delinda was holding a pretty medium sized cake.I gasped when I saw it.“Happy birthday, mommy” they chorused happily.“Aww” I cooed “You guys remembered”“Of course, we did” Declan said.“How could we forget?” Damon added.“This is for you, mummy” Delina said, stretching out her hand to give me the cake. I took the cake and put it aside.“How did you guys manage to get a cake?” I asked them.“With our money” Damon said proudly.I laughed “What money are you talking about?”“We’ve been saving some money” Damon explained “We gave it to Uncle Jack to help us get a cake. He didn’t even want to use our money but we told him to because we wanted to do something special for you”Their k

We’ll be back soon”They waved at us as we walked.While Arabella and I made our way down the long corridor, my head swirled with various thoughts.I love Arabella so much. I want nothing more than for her to be mine. I want to tell her but at the same time, I’m scared.I’m scared she won’t feel the same way. On the other hand, if I don’t tell her how I feel, what if another man makes his move?

    ArabellaWhen Jack asked me that question, something sparked in me. All of a sudden, my guard was up. My time spent in prison is something I've never discussed with anyone else. I went through hell in that place. I was unfairly locked up by the two people I trusted the most in this world. It's not a topic I'd like to talk about. On the other hand, Jack has been nice to me. Him and I are close to the point that I feel as if I can tell him anything. Do I really need to hide things from him? He brought me out of that wretched place. If not for him, I'd still be rotting in that cell. I might have even been killed by Mia. If there's anyone who deserves to know the truth, it's Jack. He's been genuinely kind to me without needing anything in return. I feel as if I can trust him. He deserves to know the truth. “Something happened” I muttered. “What’s that?”“I was in prison because I was framed”There's no going back now. After I say this, I can't unsay it. I can't undo my actions.

Here I am, battling with the work I have on my desk yet Craig has the nerve to bring more work for me to do. “Are you trying to kill me?” I asked him. He laughed “Not at all.

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

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

He asked load of questions about why he wasn’t allowed to see the prisoner and I said something in the lines of how his ears were too little to hear all the important details. 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. At first when I saw her picture lying

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 was the lowly, stupid omega in the past, and now she’s come back a bit chic doctor who’s trying to steal my man? How are people not violent towards this act?! Do I need to start an uproar?
