It was the other way round.

Finlay was ignoring Ophelia over what she did. He left her standing outside and went on with his business. When he returned, he barely even acknowledged her presence. Spoke to everyone else and deliberately ignored her, so she would know he was upset with her.

This was rather unsettling for Ophelia, as he had been nice to her since the previous day's evening. Of course, she couldn't recall anything, but she had sensed some truths in his words from their earlier conversation, it turned out she had falsely thrown accusations and wanted his attention on her.

She watched as men trained with swords and clenched her jaw when she saw Finlay come to take a look with his beta right behind him. She could admit she was a little jealous.

The whole time Finlay ignored her, he could see her watching his every move through his side glance. It was amusing but he wanted to torture her by putting some necessary distance between them so she would learn. Testing him was the l

    "You ruined everything.""I was pained, couldn't let the man have you to himself.""But he's my husband. You erased my memory of everything just so I wouldn't recognize and love him as I used to.""It was only for a couple of days, I wanted to torture him.""Where in history was it stated that werewolves and dragons mix? I've never even seen a real dragon before, except you.Ophelia ground her teeth until her jaw began to hurt as she looked away from this man whose skin was as white as snow. It was Alexander and they were in Oceanfait, standing right on the frozen sea except ships and men were out of sight."You know, I thought this would be just a love story between me and Finlay, but it's more of an adventure with gods and were-cannibals trying to separate us from each other," Ophelia folded her arms across her chest."There's nothing in my heart except pity for you, Ophelia. You didn't know what you stepped into when you accepted this man into your life," Alexander shook his head at

    They reached the Holkar sea which was known to be the largest to sail through. Sometimes men go missing because of the treacherous sea beasts and blowing-amulet sirens. They were all prepared for this sea which would take a week to cross. Holkar was the fifth and most dangerous sea among the seven seas before South. Finlay ensured Ophelia didn't leave the room. Thankfully she had regained her memory, but he couldn't risk having her out there anymore. After what Alexander made her suffer. He was outside with his men, his sword right in its belt. Ready to slay any beast that would threaten to attack. Holkar as a whole was bad luck. Cursed. Finlay had put a strict law where his men wouldn't fish or even take the seawater to filter for drinking. He had sailed through this on three occasions and could recall how men had died from just drinking from it. Sometimes they go blind if they stare at it too much.Finlay could still recall how they had been attacked by sirens who blew their amul

    Sailing through Holkar was more complicated than they had predicted. Men were missing one by one that Finlay had to impose the law of counting themselves to ensure they were complete in number. Bloated dead bodies would float atop The water as the ships sailed by and it was rather saddening. Eleven men had died within two days. Finlay even gave strict orders to them to stay inside and not come out, but it was difficult because each man who took the job as a sailor died along the way.It was exasperating for Finlay. He had discussed with his meeting men about this so they could put heads together in finding a solution, but it was to no avail. Men kept dying every day when they hadn't even reached the fifth sea. Every day, they threw dead bodies into the sea. It was certainly the sea gods who were killing them.As usual, Ophelia had stayed inside without being let out. Even the windows and door were shut so she wouldn't see outside. Finlay couldn't risk her life. But the person who had

    Continuation of flashback…Finlay was completely frazzled by her beauty because he had seen a lot of maidens within and around Easton, but none had caught his eye the way this fright-driven, trembling girl did. So far, she was the fairest.He didn't know she was that beautiful and delicate until she took her veil off and spoke up when he was about to have his guards behead her father since the man owed him such a large amount of money. Finlay cleared his throat slowly, "you never told me you had such a daughter, O'Cleigh," his voice was low when he addressed her father with his eyes never leaving hers.Although he wasn't staring at her like he loved or listed after her. He looked at her like she was meant to be kept within his castle. Away from other men so he only would have access to her.Ophelia took a hard hurtful gulp because she didn't like this man, didn't like the way he was treating her father but she wouldn't blame him because O'Cleigh was the one at fault.He was being trea

    It was remaining two days before they would reach south and Finlay had sat with his men once more for the last discussion on how to attack the Dark claw pack. They had the whole of that day to make plans and to start proceeding with them starting from the morrow, except they were still on with some arguments they had been having for the past three weeks."My lord, I am standing on my word regarding the giant, that's the only way we can break down the walls." Lord Wesley placed his wolf on the line leading to the backyard home of the giants where negotiations would be made."I beg to differ, our men aren't lambs awaiting to be sacrificed. We have to look for another way to break down the walls." Delta Lockwood clenched his jaw after letting everyone know his opinion, as he was against Wesley's idea."One giant can break through and kill over a hundred men within seconds." Wesley put his hand over the table and faced Delta Lockwood, "I'd advise you to think about this before you come up

    Later that evening, they began with the plan after Finlay's men reluctantly accepted it. It was quite a tough one because it sounded too low to go against Alpha Williamsburg like that since it had to do with their lives.Mostly Delta Lockwood who had wanted Finlay to have Ophelia sent back to Easton right from the onset, he blatantly told Finlay that it would mean he was willing to risk the life of the Luna if he wanted to have her sent into the Williamsburg castle alone to put sleeping dozes into the guardsman drinks, and have them asleep whilst Finlay and his men would wait until she signals them through a three-eyed raven to show up and smite them all. But when they heard Ophelia speak, they had no choice but to agree with it. She spoke with so much wisdom that these men began wondering how in the hell she wasn't amongst them from the meetings right from the onset.She sounded as if she had things all planned out and Finlay marveled at the way Ophelia had addressed his men.

    They reached South within thirty-nine hours and hopped out of the ships, before taking swims towards the seashore because they didn't want to be seen by Southerners. Finlay had given them the order to stop the ships farther away from land, that way it would be hard for these Southerners to know of their arrival. They reached the South late evening.They had their bags, swords, and everything else ready as they headed to the wall. Men were either thrilled or scared to have arrived South after a month of being on the seven seas. "My lord," Wesley called out to Finlay who was right in front of him with Ophelia, "this path leads to the backyard home of the giants," he added, jerking his finger in the direction of a forest with massive footprints, bones and pressed down trees. It was obvious these giants came out to the sea. They were outcasts of the south and lived in the forest. Some men stopped walking to have a look at this too and whispered amongst themselves because most of them ha

    After dressing up, Ophelia found her way to the Williamsburg castle with the map that Finlay had handed her. The dress was so attractive that eyes rested on her and followed her into the castle. No one knew she was Alpha Finlay's wife who had come from the East. Because she had a mask on.She had this all planned from the onset and it was going on smoothly. No one had seen her break into the shop because she picked the lock. Finlay taught her how to pick locks with the claws of her wolf, a day ago. Something which had her wondering how cunning her husband was, because the old Finlay didn't know how to pick a lock. Lock picking was for thieves and spies. Could it be that he had learned it during the time he was held hostage by the barbarian pack members? The man was of many things. The old Finlay never had to pick a lock, he had access to anywhere of his choice because he was the Alpha of Alphas.Upon reaching the giant castle, Ophelia walked in as if she was used to the place.

    Six months later…Cameron was tense the entire time he heard Ophelia's screams from her room. She had been in labor for three good hours, and he was starting to feel unsettled the entire time. Pacing to and fro with his hands right behind him and his lips in a thin grim line. He was a powerful man with exceedingly great might, feared and loved by many because he led men to war in the south, past the seven treacherous seas. But there he was, trembling like a culprit who was sentenced to death. And it was all because of his wife.No one had any idea Ophelia would be in labor that day. They had woken up beside each other, had breakfast together, and gone to take a look at the new packhouse that was being built when Ophelia stopped walking and told him her water just broke.She was rushed into a carriage and taken back to the castle, through a gurney because she couldn't walk. The contractions seemed to be coming. Cameron had never seen Ophelia look so scared in his life. And it made him

    Men were carrying Cameron's unconscious body through a gurney and Ophelia was beside them, running along because she feared for his life. This was like the third time they had been through into such a position, except it was way worse. Cameron had never been beaten and injured like this before.Ophelia swallowed hard, not wanting to cry because it would make her seem weak. She wanted to be strong for Cameron because she strongly believed he would survive.It was all over, with most of Alpha Bailey's men dead and a few running off because Ronan and his men had come to join the unexpected war. Ophelia's eyes caught something that made her steps falter and the men who were carrying Cameron's body left her. It was Lewis, who was over the floor next to a few dead bodies and fire. She looked completely exhausted with blood gushing from her stomach and mouth."Lewis!" Ophelia dashed toward her side and gathered her head in her hands. She didn't even know when she did it, because seeing Lew

    Ophelia wondered if the gods were against her having happiness to her fill. She had suffered in making everyone discover that Cameron was Finlay's twin and he was the rightful heir to the Alpha throne. Then she proceeded to tell him that she was pregnant, only to have Alpha Bailey show up in the middle of it all.She bit down on her bottom lip from where she was hiding behind Cameron. Because the man who had killed his twin had come for him too."I told the members of this pack that you're mine to kill," Alpha Bailey kissed his teeth as he took another step toward Cameron whose wolf was starting to surface because he wanted to fight."It seemed as though you're Finlay's twin after all and you want to claim his throne, take his woman as well,""This face is the last thing you'll see before you die a horrible death," Cameron growled and immediately took the form of his wolf before lunging at Alpha Bailey.Alpha Bailey shifted too and went crashing into Cameron, something which made Ca

    Ophelia ran after Cameron upon seeing him leave. She couldn't understand why a cloud befell his face after the truth was out and everyone had bowed to him. She had expected him to be happy at least. But he surprised her and every one by walking away as if everything meant nothing to him.She caught up with him before he could reach the gate that had guards already bowing to him.Cameron.. she tried to call his name but her voice wasn't giving out. She had lost it after shouting a lot in the courtyard because of the explaining she did.And Cameron stopped because her hand had grasped his elbow. He wanted to be away from everything and everyone, and there she was.Ophelia's heart rose in her chest when he turned and let his tearful eyes meet hers. It made her emotional to see him like that because she knew why he was like that.She knew it had to do with her explanation to the crowd and she hated the fact that her voice wasn't working. This man deserved so much more than he could ever

    The following day.Cestus had a wicked glint in his eyes as he put his hands together and in front of him, watching the crowd pouring into the courtyard wearing their cloaks because it was snowing. They had come to witness the killing of Cameron Snow, the man who had impersonated Finlay, his late brother and former Alpha of the Crimson Paw. It was dawn, and nearing nine. Cestus had an under butler holding onto a clock beside him, whilst he waited. He wanted the time to hit nine and then he would order for the execution of Cameron Snow. Hamilton, the head butler was perplexed. It was clearly written on his face that he didn't want the death of Cameron to take place, be him an Impostor. So many of the servants were unsettled as well because Cameron was good to them. The best Alpha they ever had. Elder Adolphus exchanged a glance with someone in the crowd and the man nodded at him. No one knew what these two had planned.Cestus kissed his teeth and fixed his gaze on the heavy wall cl

    The journey to Kathleen's home was quicker than expected. Ophelia and the people who had accompanied her reached there within five hours. And on the outskirts of Silverline pack sat a small cottage that looked like it hadn't been occupied by the presence of a person in ages. To think Kathleen had lived there because of her hardheadedness. Her refusal to let her pride down and settle whatever quarrel she had with her husband. No one knew what had happened between the two, but it did seem like a huge fight which was the whole thing that made them part ways. A dull pain spread through Ophelia's chest as she hopped off her horse and neared the cottage because Cameron had lived there as a child. As a child who had no clue that he was an Alpha's first son and heir to the Alpha throne in the Crimson Paw pack, Easton. "Wait," Lewis stopped Ophelia upon seeing how she was about to make her way in, "you wouldn't know what is inside waiting for someone. Catidy perhaps," she pointed out beca

    After spending the next day in search of the midwife, they found her at last. Through some wolf-less beggars along the way. Thankfully, Ronan's men had arrived so Alpha Caden couldn't send his men after then. Lewis Duncan had come in handy at the right time. She and the rest of the men were asked to wait outside whilst Ophelia was ushered in to meet with the aging woman who had gray hair and could barely see. Lady Leslie lived alone even though she was old and needed support. It seemed as though she was a thoughtful woman because she looked in Ophelia's direction for a long time. "I was told that you came to see me," she said at last, after staring at Ophelia to her fill. "Yes, my lady," came the response from Ophelia. "May I know who you are?" Lady Leslie inquired almost immediately. "I am Ophelia, my lady. From the Crimson Paw pack," Ophelia answered, rubbing the side of her arm as she looked around the small room. "Why are you here?" Lady Leslie asked quickly once more. O

    Ophelia struggled to break free from where she had her hands tied to the bedpost. She was in the chamber of the cruel Alpha Caden, on top of his king-sized bed. And it was exasperating to the bone that he had his men tie her to his bedpost because he wanted to have his way with her. Ophelia knew she couldn't let him touch her, it was insane. She belonged to another. Was carrying the child of Cameron. She had come to the Silverline pack because she wanted some information that she could gather as evidence that Cameron was Finlay's twin and the eldest. The rightful Alpha of the Crimson Paw pack. Alpha Caden made his way into his chambers, with that sick smirk never leaving his face. "You'd make things easier for yourself if you stop struggling. Because it'd be of no help to you, I'd have you either way," Alpha Caden smiled sickly at Ophelia. At last, he would have her to himself. The beautiful, beautiful woman. She had caught his eyes even when Finlay was alive. But he had kept his

    Cameron wondered if Ophelia was safe, wherever she was. He didn't trust those men she was with, they could try to take advantage of her upon seeing she was the only woman in their midst. He didn't like that she would feel alone, he wouldn't be there to protect her if someone wanted to touch or hurt her. But he had to let Cestus's men take him away because he had an ulterior motive. He was in his old dungeon once more, the place he had been freed from barely twenty-four hours ago. Ophelia didn't waste her efforts to bring him out, they had met and made up. It was a good thing to happen. The thought of Ophelia sending men to come rescue him still baffled him. How in the seven hells was she able to convince those men into sneaking into the Dupree's castle to liberate him from where he was locked in? Ophelia was brave since he went to Easton to impersonate Finlay. She started coming out of her shell the night she took a boat and sailed after his ship because she wanted to be with him
