Chapter 4

Serena's evil voice had me snapping my neck to face her. She had an evil smile on her face and I could clearly tell she was up to something. 

She then walked to me, her body hovering above mine where I laid. 

I looked around in panic only to realise that I was in the hospital. 

I tried to push her  away, get her ugly face out of sight but she seemed to have anticipated my move and gripped the headboard. 

Being an alpha blood, she was obviously stronger than an omega like me and she didn't hesitate to flaunt it on my face with an evil smirk. 

“ A fox can't wrestle with an elephant. You should know your place.” She sneered at me.

I hated being compared to a fox and I hated it even more that she was stronger than me

“ What do you want?" I asked warily as I remained defenceless against her. I was vulnerable with how weak my body felt after the punishment.

“ Now that's an interesting question.What do I want?" She repeated, a grin spreading on her face. 

" What could I possibly want from someone like you Hazel? How about your eyes? If I ask for them, would you give them to me?” She asked and fear gripped my heart, my breath coming in gasps.

Seeing my reaction, the witch burst out laughing, making me wonder what was funny.

" That's hilarious! You should have seen your face.” She laughed. 

“ I obviously don't need your useless eyes. They are worth nothing, just like you are.” She spat, sneering at me. 

She must have come to gloat at me for taking my mate from me and possibly remind me that I'm a nobody. Well, I have heard those words for so long that I roll my eyes when they are repeated to my face. 

“ Show yourself out if you have nothing to say. I don't want to see your face.” I spat and watched as her eyes narrowed at me, a dark flicker dancing in her pitch black orbs. 

" Get out? Just who do you think you are to order me? Do you believe I can rip that sharp tongue of yours and feed it to my dogs but then again, I doubt if my dogs would want to feast on dirty stuff.” Her voice had a hint of warning and not wanting to fall out of grace after escaping hell, I could only shut my mouth, gritting my teeth in hatred. 

I clenched my jaws painfully, keeping my gaze locked with hers. 

After enduring torture, I can't afford to go through another bout of their punishment, not when I am pregnant. 

I have always been a defiant person but in this situation, I could not afford to provoke the lionesses.

Serena gripped my chin,twisting it roughly until I cried in pain.

“ Listen to me, mutt. Stay away from Noah. He is mine.i don't give a fuck whom you are to him but since he chose me over you, you better swallow the bitter pill and move on. I won't sit by and watch you get close to him." Serena warned

“ If he is yours as you say, I don't see the need for this conversation unless you are  afraid that I will take him back from you. ?" I stubbornly replied with every intention of taunting her.

I watched in pleasure as her face morphed into a scowl, her hands balled into fists. 

I could tell that my presence somehow threatened her which I found quite funny. 

How could a female alpha like her be wary of a pack where's daughter.

Besides, didn't Noah choose her over me? Isn't that enough for her? 

Serena chuckled darkly that I shivered. 

“ I don't need to be confident because even if he could be asked to choose, he'll still choose me over you. I just don't like seeing contaminated stuff around what's mine lest it infects him. You are an omega born from whoring around. What do you think? Do you have any value? You think just because you share a mating bond with Noah that you are so important?” Serena mocked.

I growled, the disrespectful words about my mother making me want to tear her apart.

No one would be happy to hear their mother being disrespected blatantly and I'm no exception.

I could care less how she conceived us.All I know is that my mother was and is my world and I wasn't about to let her killer talk ill of her.

“Don't you dare disrespect my mother.” I warned

Everybody has their breaking point and my mother happens to be what separates my sanity with insanity.

“ Or what?”She taunted.

“ Very soon, I'll send you packing to meet them in your afterlife.”

Her words made me clench my fists.

Was that a threat I was hearing? I hate it the most when someone threatens me. 

"If you keep sticking around here, you won't know what struck you. I'll make sure I end your miserable life with my bloody hands.” She swore and I lost it.

My hand moved like it had a mind of its own and for the second time, I landed a slap on her cheeks. 

“You dare slap me, mutt!” Serena roared before countless slaps kissed my cheeks making them burn from the impact. 

With her alpha strength which she made sure to utilise, it wasn't my cheeks that suffered. I could feel the sound of ringing in my ears, a metallic taste filling my mouth adding more to my ache. 

The urge to shed tears was so strong but I held myself. 

I wasn't about to let her bask at the pleasure of seeing me cry. 

The next moment, the door burst open revealing Noah. 

He had a worried expression on his face and for a moment, I thought he was worried about me. 

It wasn't until he pulled Serena into his arms that my bubble burst, dropping me to reality in one harsh blow. 

“ Why are you here? Didn't I warn you to stay away from this dog? You would not know when her rabies acts up and you end up bitten.”

    I stood up abruptly and started following her. "Where are you going to? We have not finished our meeting." I heard Drake's voice. I did not turn to look back as I was on a mission. My mission was to find Hazel in whatever hole she had run to. Was it a coincidence or just good luck? I had come here to negotiate with Drake and had ended up finding my long lost mate. But I knew something, this was a second chance given to me to make things right and I wasn't going to let it slide.I pushed a few people that were in front of me to make way. One guy yelled obscenities but I did not care, I wanted to find Hazel before she could disappear again from my life. I didn't know I missed her so much until I saw her. My beast was pushing through in an attempt to take control but I wasn't about to let him free. I don't trust him one bit when it comes to Hazel. I can't have his longing ruin things for us.

    “ Hazel please, I am begging you, don't do this. I am so sorry." Noah said while still in pain. Being an Alpha, why did it seem like the pain was too much. Usually, a rejection doesn't hurt an alpha like it affects omegas.He had run after me outside.I had escaped outside thinking that he would go back to his drinking and leave me alone but he was adamant."Stop following me or I will scream.” I threatened.“Please listen to me.” He pleaded.I stopped to look at him before saying, "I hate you so much I wish you were dead. I do not want to hear anything you have to say." I didn't mean it,deep down I knew that I would never wish anyone bad. Especially when that person was the father of my kids. It didn't matter what he did to me in the past. He deserved pain but death was out of the topic.I just wanted him to leave me alone. Seeing him again was filling my mind with dark clouds that weighed down on my soul."You don't mean that. Please, you are my mate!" He said while looking at me with

    Chapter EightI arrived home tired and worn out. It had been a long night; from the fight I had with Noah, to the rude and stubborn client I attended to. I was so ready for bed, other things could wait. The only thing I needed to do was check on the twins. They were my lifeline, the only reason I was working hard. I needed to do everything I could for their survival and safety.I tiptoed into their room, careful not to wake them up. My girl was a light sleeper; any slight noise could wake her up. I did not want that. It made me happy to see them sleeping peacefully and soundly. I wished I could maintain the peace and stability we had started having in this city. I had vowed not to disrupt their lives again. My vows were going to be broken because of Noah.His appearance back in my life had made me make a spur of the moment decision. I did not want him to get near my kids or even know that they existed. I did not know how he would react if he knew he had kids and I was really not willin

    Chapter NineDrake POVThis woman looked familiar. I had seen her somewhere but could not just place it. Her scent, which was warm and inviting, smelt familiar. I continued staring at her for a few seconds. She was beautiful, hazel eyes, a striking face and a mouth to die for. I was sure she was not one of my conquests because I would not have forgotten about her. Her face was too striking to forget. A man, especially an alpha, never forgets his prey.The issue was still bugging me but I decided to shelve it. I had not come to the office to socialise with workers who were beneath me.“Hazel, please ensure you see me after work.” I said before heading to my office.“Yes sir.” She answered politely.It was her voice, the way she said ‘yes sir’ that brought back the memories. She was the lady from the V-Spot club. It was all coming back to me. She was the same lady that Noah had followed to the other room. I did not hear whatever they had been talking about but I knew it was something se

    Chapter TenNoah’s POVThe sound emanating from my chest was more of a growl than a groan. It was like my pain was caught between my two sides; the human and the wolf side. I did not know what to do. My wolf was starting to go crazy and I did not like it. I knew it was only a matter of time before I turned rogue. A rogue alpha was a danger to his people. These people needed to trust me enough to tell me their troubles. They could not do that when I was in a state of madness.The thought of Hazel was driving me crazy. She was near yet still so far, out of my reach. I wanted her with the intensity of fire and the fierceness of a storm. One thing was hindering me from seeking her out though; I was afraid of being rejected and humiliated. If only I could get an assurance that she would not reject me again, I would have already gone to her.“Alpha, your water.” A voice called out.Startled from my thoughts about Hazel, my hands flailed and I ended up knocking the jug of water from the maid

    Chapter 11Alpha Drake’s POVI had had a long day, from meeting other alphas for a ceremony to supervising the building of another company of mine. These were tasks that I could not have delegated because they needed my presence. The only thing I regretted was not being able to see Hazel. I had wanted to pass by the company but I was exhausted and needed to wash off the day’s dirt. Pack business was sometimes draining. However, I derived pleasure in knowing that I had all that power in my hands. I could wield it the way I deemed fit. I could break anyone at will.Speaking of power, I needed to punish the wolves that were disturbing my peaceful rest. I had been hearing the noise for some minutes now but chose to ignore it. It was now becoming louder.“I want to talk to Drake now. Move out of the way.” One of the voices shouted.“I am not going to repeat myself. You better leave this place before I wipe the floor with you.” A voice I recognized said. The voice belonged to a member of m

    Chapter 12Hazel’s POVI had woken up five minutes ago and was wondering why my alarm was not going off. The curtains were thick so I could not see the exact position of the sun. I pulled my phone from the bedside table to check the time. My eyes widened when I saw the time. I was late for work. It was ten minutes to my clocking time and I had not even taken a shower. This was a new job and I could not afford to get fired. There were no jobs that were readily available for me so I had to get ready faster.I went into the bathroom and hurriedly took a shower. I picked the nearest dress and put it on. I was going to skip breakfast because I had no time to make something. I opened the door and almost collided with Lucas.“I am so sorry. I was in a hurry. I did not see you there.” I apologized before raising my head.“It’s okay. I am the one who should apologize. I wanted to surprise you with breakfast before you left for work.” Lucas said.“That is very kind of you Lucas, thank you. You

    A couple of months have passed and Serena is still at large. Noah's pack and Lucian's pack have come together to talk to Drake's pack. They hope to deescalate the situation and bring unity and peace between both packs. Hazel is much better now and her condition is now stable. Everything seems to be looking up in their favor…..Hazel's POV~“But mommy, where are you going?” Kaiser asked, tugging on my gown. Kyle was busy with her dolls and teddy bears in her imaginary tea party. “I'll be back soon. Your dad and I are going somewhere” I explained just before Noah walked up to us and squatted in front of Kaiser. “Hey buddy. You're a man, aren't you?” He asked, to which Kaiser nodded rather silkily. “And is a man supposed to stress his mom?” He asked. Kaiser shook his head in disapproval. “Good. Mommy and I will be back soon, okay?”“Hmph, fine. Will uncle Lucian visit us today?” He asked.“Of course, buddy. You know we haven't finished our game yet. I still owe you one beat down”

    In a black helicopter, Lucian and Max along with the pilot can be seen approaching Lucian's Mansion. They've gotten the chest finally and are on their way home to check it out…..Lucian’s POV~We had finally gotten the damn chest and were on our way home. I was excited to open it but Max stopped me…and for good reason too. We didn't have a freaking idea what was inside this thing. And we sure as hell didn't want to blow ourselves up in the helicopter. “It’s so heavy. I wonder what's in it.” I muttered. “We'll find out when we get home.” Max responded, “But what even led you to go get it by the way?” he asked. I paused to think for a moment. Up till now, I didn't really have any real reason for taking such a perilous trip; just a gut feeling. “I honestly don't even know. It's just this strong hunch inside me.” I said, “Almost like my wolf is forcing me to go get it.” I said. Max thought about it for a while. “Could it be your dad or other predecessors trying to tell you some

    A black sedan pulls up right in front of Noah's villa premises. In it, Naya and Hazel can be seen seated. They are having a conversation about whether or not to go in…..Naya’s POV~“You ready?” I asked as I took a glance at her. She looked rather nervous but yet she looked excited…. almost like a child. “I don't really know. Do I look okay?” She asked, as she checked her hair in the mirror. For some reason, I smiled. She was so cute the way she tried to look her best. “You look fine” I said, “I'm sure your kids are dying to see you. You'll always look great to them no matter what you wear” “Are you sure?” She asked. “I'm positive” I reassured her. She took a deep breath and finally agreed. “Alright then. Let's go inside” she said, “I'm ready now”.“That's the spirit”, I responded, staring at the determination on her face. It was funny how she was so excited to see the same people she has been seeing for years. We got out of the car and walked over to the gates. Ding! Dong!

    The next day, Hazel can be seen sitting up on her bed in her room. She looks like she's lost in thoughts. But why? Could something be bothering her?Hazel's POV~“Why do I feel so uneasy?” I muttered in deep thought as I looked around the room, my eyes staring but not really looking at anything. Something felt odd but I didn't know what. While I was trying to process my thoughts, I heard a knock on the door. “Who is it?” I asked, turning my head to the side. The door handle twisted and it opened slightly to reveal Naya's head popping out like a child playing pop-goes-the-weasel. “Hey” she greeted with a smile as she walked in, “Someone's up early” she said. I smiled in response, watching as she walked up to the bed and took a seat. I didn't really want to talk - or did I? I couldn't even tell. Something was just off and I couldn't really point out what it was. “Well I could barely get some sleep” I responded. “Really? Are you alright?” She asked. “Yeah, I'm fine….I thin

    Back at the Jade goddess temple……Lucian's POV~“I don't know, Max. Don't you think this place could suddenly spit out another round of flames?” I asked as we walked through the dark hallway. Max, whose flashlight was still on, was searching for clues down on the floor and on the walls. All I could see was a bunch of gibberish hieroglyphics. It was weird how the writings on the wall sorta looked like all writings from all languages at the same time. From one angle, it almost looked Egyptian and from another angle, it looked sorta like ancient Neanderthal paintings. “For the last time sir and for the love of God, it's not spitting any more flames.” He said, “We've already defused it”“Says who? How can you be so sure?” I asked, and for good reason too. “Who's to say that the builders couldn't have chosen to play a trick on us and just set the trap twice?” I asked. “Well, you do have a point, but if you were that thoughtful at the beginning, perhaps we wouldn't even be here in the fi

    In a certain bar at night, Serena can be seen drinking some beer. She's clearly lost in thought and looks a bit tipsy. Just then someone walks over to her table. Who is it?Serena's POV~How did it all go so wrong so fast? Who were those guys? Especially the one the suit…And how the hell did he find me? What did he mean that he Hazel's brother? Hazel never even had a brother….at least, I don't remember her ever having one. “Could Noah be behind all that?” I pondered, staring into the distance in thought. It didn't seem likely. I knew the scent of both Noah's and Drake's packs; that dude’s scent wasn't anything to close to the both of ‘em. It definitely wasn't Noah's idea and it certainly wasn't Liam's idea. Liam would never use another person to get at me - if he even had any idea that I was still alive. I couldn't wrap my head around the whole thing and just continued sipping my beer. While I kept taking more sips, I heard footsteps approaching my table.Clip! Clop! Clip! Cl

    Lucian's POV~“What's that?” I asked as I watched him walk past again. “A rock, sir” he answered, looking at me with confusion written all over his face.“Of course I know it's a rock, you dimwit. I mean what do you plan to use it for?” I said, smacking my forehead with my palm in frustration. “Oh. It's for the tile, sir” he said and then poised himself for what looked like him trying to play dodgeball with ants. “Please take a few steps back.” He said. At first I stared at him with my brows raised in confusion. I didn't know what he was planning, but I moved back regardless. Even if his hunch was false, I still couldn't take any chances. “What do you think you're doing?” I asked, still curious to know what exactly he thought he was doing. “Disarming the temple, sir. We're gonna place this rock on the tile and see which trap goes off first” he said. I didn't even know how to respond, but then again what did I know about all this anyway?“And what makes you think there are any tra

    Lucian and Max have emerged the the hallway and have gotten into a rather large chamber. It's a round hall surrounded by multiple evenly spaced huge doors all around. At the center of the hall is something like a treasure chest positioned on a little altar-like stand. What is that?Lucian's POV~*Cough! Cough!* “Shit, it's dusty in here” I complained as I covered my nose and mouth with my elbow. Max and I had finally made it out of the long ass, web-filled hallway and we were now in the temple. “You don't say” Max responded with a hint of sarcasm as he emerged from the hallway after me. “I do say, actually. The webs here are crazy” I exclaimed as I tried to get the ones in front of me off. “Well I don't think they are anywhere as crazy as whatever inspired you to drag us here” he said. Bro was just unnecessarily spiteful at this point, because why else was he keep trying to make me feel guilty? “Save it, Max” I cut him off, “I brought us here and that's that. Now let's go

    Naya had just ended the call with her boss, Lucian. Judging from how he responded, he certainly wasn't going to be home early so she had to take care of his sister Hazel till he gets back. Naya’s POV~“Well, that's a shame” I thought aloud as I dropped the phone. What in the world was gonna take him so long? Well there was no need to question him now, was there? He was too adamant to even heed anyone's correction to begin with so it was pointless. Though judging from how much he adored his sister, it would take something pretty serious to delay him that long from seeing her. Putting down the phone, I strutted back to Hazel's room. She should have been done with eating by now. I hurried back to her room only to see her getting dressed. She was standing right in front of the dressing mirror, looking at the flowery gown she was wearing. “Wow, someone looks sexy today” I flattered her as I walked in. She turned back in surprise.“Oh, it's you” she chuckled as she looked back at
