Chapter 116Declan’s POV I knew something was wrong somewhere and I was either the one with the wrong information or someone was trying to manipulate her. I felt a strong connection with her as I pondered how she might be feeling.I didn’t know if I was actually coming to my senses or if I just felt pitiful because I found out she was carrying my child, whatever the seer meant I needed to find out soon.She urged it to be important and I just wanted to be sure of what was happening and maybe I was wrong after all this while.A feeling Inside me wanted this all to be true. Kendall and the baby and then her innocence in all of this.I felt guilty already because I was starting to see things from another perspective. I knew I didn’t have time and I would have to find her myself. The seer mentioned that she was far away but she would be in reach soon.If I couldn’t go after her then I would wait for her arrival and then know what to do but before then I need to organize my thoughts.I ne
Chapter 117Declan’s POV “For the project to be able to turn friends against one another then I’m eager to know the context, what did this project entail? How much was involved that it was able to cause so much controversy.”“Unfortunately for the both of us, the information I know stops here. I don’t think anyone knows exactly what the project was about. They made it very confidential, it was so tight that nothing could come out.”“So you’re saying there’s no hint of what happened exactly? If there was no knowledge of what the project was about, it would make everything meaningless.“Well, that’s your finding to make because I’ve told you all I can help you with. If you seek more then you’re going to have to go the extra mile. Your dad’s Beta might know something other Than the descendants of this man are the next option.”He stood up and slowly walked out of the shadows he had been in since the beginning of our conversation. I could finally see his masculine figure and the tales we
Chapter 118Kendall’s POVThroughout the journey, I was so quiet and maybe I was too quiet because my mom noticed and I could tell she was worried by the way she stared at me till she finally walked over to me.“Is anything wrong dear? You seem tired and stressed, if there’s anything wrong with you, you know you can always tell me anything right?” She said, looking fiercely into my eyes.I tried to avoid her gaze, I wasn’t ready to confront her yet. I didn’t know how to explain to her that I was pregnant with everything that was going on. This just didn’t seem like the right time and I didn’t want to overburden her.I just hoped the opportunity to tell her everything would come soon because I didn’t want to hide this from her. It was weighing me down and I needed comfort but it would be selfish for me to tell her now.“Yes Mom I’m fine, I’m just tired.” I answered her calmly. “You know how everything has been and I honestly just want everything to be fine because we also deserve a goo
Chapter 119Kendall’s POVI walked around the market searching for things to buy on the list Mom gave me. It took me a while because it had been a long time since I was here, things had changed and I almost didn’t recognize them anywhere.I didn’t want anyone to suspect anything about me because I knew the situation of things here might not be exactly how I left it. Even when I was still here, I held a position that didn’t allow me to do things like this.I never went to the market to tend to my needs as I always had maids who were there for my every bidding. Life was so easy then and things weren’t tough.It was so surprising how fast things could change from using rosy and then not being rosy. Ever since I ran away things have been very tough for me but I only did that to survive. I would have been killed if I stayed in the dungeon.I didn’t know who it was that hated me that much to want my head but he or she was getting a good impact on the Alpha. I feared my head and not being a
Chapter 120Declan’s POV“I want her posted everywhere in this Pack, from the market to the houses to the villas, and make sure the Price reward is there too,” I said with a very stern tone on my face.My guards aligned in front of me collecting orders from me because I didn’t want them slacking off. Time was going and I had a feeling that she was around here. I just felt it and I didn’t want her escaping from my grip once more.“Okay sir, are pictures are already everywhere necessary but we haven’t gotten any news from anyone claiming they’ve seen her around.” One of the guards uttered.“I know she’s around here and doesn’t leave all the work or the Pack members, they are just meant to be nothing but our plan b. You’re also meant to stand guard and look out for her.” I said with a serious countenance on my face.I just knew Kendall was around here and she would have seen those posters, I just hoped she wouldn’t do anything drastic before I got to her.I was so desperate at this point
Chapter 121Kendall’s POVWe finally set out and it was a huge decision we had to make. We had to contemplate it. We were overreacting because putting away everything we just got was a lot.It took a lot for me to come to terms that this wasn’t my fault: I mean I was the one causing all of these inconveniences for my family. I didn’t want to see them going through trouble and one way or the other I was adding to it.I knew everyone was tired and frustrated but I couldn’t help but think this was all my fault. If he wasn’t on my trail, this wouldn’t have happened. At least we would have been able to settle in a little bit.I knew mom spent all she had on the house we just left and she couldn’t earn anything from it. At least it would take some time for us to get a Buyer and the money would be sent to us eventually.I knew she had no means of setting any bills and I was out of money too. Things were turning out for the worse and I felt I let my family down already. I knew it all wasn’t
Chapter 122Kendall’s POVI looked closely to be sure that I wasn’t hallucinating and there was actually someone In Front of me, an old woman and she just spoke to me.I looked around to be sure this was happening and it was then I noticed my mom was still awake.I moved over to her in fear of what was happening, she immediately held me into her arms as the both of us watched the woman closely.I was startled when I heard her speak because she looked so frightening and shaggy that it sent me back immediately.Mom was also scared as we both watched the woman closely hoping she’ll come back to her senses and go away. I had no business with her whatsoever and I didn’t know her so how did she find us?Were we being followed? Was this a trap?I didn’t know what to do as I kept on looking at Mom who seemed clueless too. She just held me in her hands as we both waited for something to happen.We waited for a while and she still stood there.“I think you should talk to her, I don’t think she’
Chapter 123Declan’s POVI was in my study room, carefully packing a few important books I might need for the journey ahead. The weight of uncertainty loomed over me, but I had no choice.Answers awaited me, and I was determined to find them. As I slipped the last book into my bag, the study door creaked open, and Caden, walked in, a sealed letter in his hand.“Declan,” he said, his voice tense. “You need to see this.”I took the letter from him, breaking the seal with a sense of curiosity. The contents were exactly what I feared. It was another threat from our enemies, promising to end our entire generation and bring war to our doorstep. My blood boiled as I read the words, anger surging through me like wildfire.“Those bastards,” I muttered, crumpling the letter in my fist. “They think they can intimidate us with threats?”Caden stood firm, his expression serious. “What’s the plan, Alpha?”I took a deep breath, trying to channel my anger into determination. “We prepare. We train har
EpilogueWith their love reaffirmed and their bond stronger than ever, Declan and I embarked on a new chapter of our lives together. In just a few short days, surrounded by our loved ones, we exchanged vows and pledged our hearts to each other in marriage. It was a day filled with laughter, tears, and overwhelming joy, as we celebrated our love and commitment to each other.And then, four months later, our joy knew no bounds as I gave birth to twin boys, healthy and strong, who bore a striking resemblance to their father. Holding them in my arms for the first time, I felt a sense of completeness wash over me, knowing that our family was now complete.A week later, as the moonlight filtered through the curtains of our quarters, causing a warmth over the room, I stood watching our twin boys sleep peacefully in their crib. Their tiny chests rose and fell in perfect rhythm, a sight that never failed to fill my heart with warmth and gratitude.Suddenly, I felt Declan’s presence behind me.
Chapter 150Declan’s POVAs the sun painted the sky in colors of red and orange, our pack returned to our home, weary but victorious. With Kendall and her mother by my side, we made our way back to the safety of our camp, the weight of our recent battles slowly lifting from our shoulders.That night, we gathered together for a feast, a celebration of our hard-won victory. The air was filled with laughter and music as we ate and drank, the scent of roasted meat and spiced wine mingling in the air.Around the fire, our pack members shared tales of bravery and triumph, their voices raised in joyful celebration. Kendall’s mother, her face illuminated by the flickering flames, shared stories of her own, her words a testament to the strength and resilience of our pack.As the night wore on, the tension of our recent battles faded into the background, replaced by a sense unity. For the first time in what felt like ages, we were able to relax and enjoy each other’s company, free from the con
Chapter 149Declan’s POVAs the excitement and rejoicing of our victory began to fade, I knew there was still one matter that needed to be addressed. I gathered everyone in the camp, their eyes fixed on me with a mixture of anticipation and apprehension.“Friends,” I began, my voice carrying across the clearing, “we have emerged victorious from this battle. But there is still one question that remains unanswered: what should we do with him?” I asked, pointing to my father-in-law bounded in chains.A murmur of voices erupted from the crowd. Some called for mercy, while others demanded justice. But as I looked around, I could see the steely determination in their eyes. They knew as well as I did that Kendall’s father was a threat that could not be ignored.Turning to Kendall, I sought her counsel, knowing that her opinion held weight among our people. “Kendall,” I said, my voice gentle yet firm, “what do you think we should do?”Kendall’s gaze was steady as she met mine, her expression
Chapter 148Declan’s POVAs the battle raged around us, I caught sight of Kendall’s mother among the chaos. My heart skipped a beat at the sight of her, a sense of dread flooding through me.What could she be doing here? I asked myself. Before I could approach her, she met my gaze with an expression. She approached me, her eyes filled with a fierce determination.“I can help weaken them,” she said, her voice steady. “But I need your men to attack fiercely when the time is right.”I nodded, understanding the gravity of her words. Even though she appeared weak and powerless, Kendall’s mother was a force to be reckoned with, her unique blend of werewolf and witch abilities giving her a power unlike any other.As she began her chants, I watched in awe as the magic began to take effect. The rogues fell to the ground, their movements sluggish and uncoordinated. The rest of our warriors seemed strengthened by the rogues’ weakness, their attacks more focused and precise.With a renewed sense
Chapter 147Kendall’s POVI sat in the small tent, my heart heavy with worry and fear for Declan and the men at war. The sounds of battle echoed in the distance, every sound sending shivers down my spine.As I prayed for their safety, a wounded warrior stumbled into the tent, his face pale and painted with blood. He gasped for breath, his words tumbling out in a rush.“We’re losing,” he said, his voice trembling with fear. “Your father… he’s using the rogues. They’re tearing through our men like… like nothing I’ve ever seen.”My heart sank at his words, a cold knot of dread forming in the pit of my stomach. I knew what it meant if my father succeeded in taking over our pack. We would become slaves, forced to bend to his will or face the consequences.The others in the tent looked at each other with wide eyes, the weight of the news sinking in. We were facing a force unlike anything any of us had ever encountered before, and the possibility of defeat seemed all too real now.But even i
Chapter 146Kendall’s POVOver the next hours, the palace courtyard buzzed with the energy of warriors readying themselves for battle. Guns were loaded , swords sharpened, and strategies were whispered among the ranks.Declan had ordered all women to stay back, to tend to the wounded who might make it back, but I had no intention of staying behind.Declan stood before me, his eyes filled with worry. “Kendall, you need to stay back with the others. It’s not safe for you and the baby to be out there.”I shook my head. “I can’t do that, Declan. These are my people. I can’t just sit back and watch them suffer the consequences of my father’s actions.”His face hardened with frustration. “It’s not just about them. It’s about you and our child. I can’t lose you, Kendall.”“I understand that, but if there’s going to be a war, I need to be there. I need to try and save as many people as I can. I’ve known these people all my life. I can’t abandon them now.”Declan sighed, running a hand through
Chapter 145Declan’s POVBack at the palace, the weight of Caden’s betrayal pressed heavily on my mind. Kendall and I couldn’t shake the horror of the things we saw, along with knowing that my best friend had been working with the enemy all along.We sat in the guest room given to us. Kendall’s eyes reflected my worry, her presence both a comforting and a reminder of the gravity of our situation.I had always relied on Caden, counted on him to have my back, and now that foundation had been destroyed by his greed and betrayal. I suspected Kendall’s father promised him control over my pack in exchange for his alliance.“I can’t believe it,” Kendall whispered softly. “How could he do this to you? To the pack?”I shook my head, the anger and hurt boiling within me. “I don’t know, Kendall. I thought I knew him, trusted him with everything. But now…”“I trusted him too, I sincerely thought he was my friend.” Kendall chimed in.My voice trailed off as I clenched my fists, trying to contain
Chapter 144Declan’s POVMy mind raced as the gravity of what we’d uncovered settled in. Turning humans into Lycans and placing them under his control—Kendall’s father was trying to resurrect an ancient power for his own gain. The implications were deadly.Just as we were about to leave, we heard footsteps through the corridor. We exchanged a panicked glance and quickly sought cover behind a large machine. The outside door creaked open, and my heart nearly stopped when Kendall’s father walked in.“Stay quiet,” I whispered, barely moving my lips. Kendall nodded, her face pale with fear.We peered through the gaps in the factory, watching as her father surveyed the lab with his men. He moved with a confidence that showed his confidence in the security of this place. He approached the table we had been examining and began rifling through the papers, humming to himself.“He has no idea we’re here,” Kendall mouthed, her eyes wide. I nodded, grateful we had locked the door when we entered.
Chapter 143Kendall’s POVThe atmosphere of the basement was thick with dust too, and the echo of our footsteps was the only sound in the emptiness.It looked like a factory, with machines and equipment, more sophisticated than the ones we saw above, spread around.“This place is huge,” I murmured almost to myself. “It feels like we’re in the wrong place.”Declan’s brow furrowed as he scanned the room. “We might not be. The spy said this was the place. We need to figure out what is going on here.”I couldn’t shake the feeling that we might have been led into a trap. “What if he set us up, Declan? What if my father knew we were coming and had the spy mislead us?”Declan shook his head, his eyes sharp and focused. “I don’t think so. I can sense something. There’s more to this place than meets the eye.”I nodded, trusting his instincts. We began to search through the factory, moving cautiously through the huge space.As we moved deeper, I noticed a section of the floor that looked differ
