"My lord," Madelyn appeared at the throne room entrance with a bright smile on her face, and Finlay looked up from his throne, past where his council of elders and some prominent men in the pack was seated, and then he caught the eyes of his wife to be.

"Come," he ordered and then rose to his feet as he watched her make her way in, whilst everyone else remained silent and stared in awe.

Madelyn looked different and better, in her navy blue strapless dress and her blonde hair styled in waves. She didn't look like the filthy brothel worker but like a maiden. A beautiful one of fresh quality.

"My lords," Madelyn bowed upon reaching where the men sat, for they were having a meeting with Finlay when she interrupted.

They rose to their feet and copied her because it was known within and outside Easton that she was meant to be Luna.

Aside from Hamilton, the head butler who didn't seem pleased, someone else had the same expression as him and it was no other person than Lewis Duncan, Finlay'

    Ophelia was back in Petersburg not as a woman but as an Impersonated male this time, because if she had come in her old disguise, everyone would have known that she was the runaway Luna from the Crimson Paw pack. Arthur outdid himself in dressing her up as a man. He spent hours adjusting his long coats and shirts to her size and then wore her a wig and mustache. It was one of the most hilarious moments in Ophelia's life. They spent time talking about everything and nothing, whilst Arthur looked away so she could tie the bandages around her chest to flatten her breasts. Even when Arthur's father banged loudly on the door and asked what was going on, the lad said he was helping a friendOphelia was full of smiles during that hour, although she knew she would cry when she was left alone once more. "Let me go introduce you to my father," the lad said at last, feeling pleased with himself for a job well done."How do I look?" Ophelia asked as she stared at her reflection in the mirror."N

    "Ophelia is missing and I need to know if she mentioned her whereabouts," Finlay said immediately Omega O'Cleigh opened the door to him.And Ophelia's father exchanged a confused glance with his wife before returning his gaze to Finlay."What do you mean by that? We left her in your care," the middle-aged man didn't very much seem pleased about what he heard from his son-in-law."So you mean she didn't come over here before leaving?" Finlay was the one puzzled this time."No," came the response from Ophelia's mother who was knitting a sweater."Shit!" Finlay cursed under his breath and turned away from them. It was exactly two days after his wife left the castle."She overheard my conversation with you and then ran off." Finlay blurted out, holding the gaze of Omega O'Cleigh."My lord, do you mean she ran off with another man?""It never crossed my mind, but now that you have…""Then I think she has every right to," Ophelia's father interrupted him."What?" Finlay could barely believe

    Finlay was about to leave with some of his men to go in search of his wife when Lewis came with this unknown old man.Presley had tried as much as he could to hide himself very well, even though it felt like he would shit on his pants the whole time he was interrogated by Lewis. He had told lies which she had believed."Alpha Finlay, this man is here for you," Lewis announced when Finlay shot her a questioning look."I'm afraid he has to return later, as I am about to head out," Finlay didn't seem interested in whatever this old man had to say. All he wanted was to go in search of his wife."It is important, my lord. Something that has to do with your Luna," Presley spoke in his actual clear voice this time, he didn't feign the voice of an old man and this had everyone puzzled. Mostly Finlay.Lewis gulped uneasily and took one good look at this old man because something didn't seem right about him."What is it about my Luna?" Of course, his response had sparked interest in Finlay.Pre

    Ophelia woke up that morning feeling feverish. She couldn't recall when she last fell sick because she rarely ever got sick. She felt so exhausted that she found it difficult to even get out of bed, so she just stayed there with the heavy sheet covers covering her whole but. The window was a tad open, causing cold to seep into the room, but she left it like that. She felt hot and cold at the same time, was drenched in her own sweat, and still had goosebumps in her pores.And then the urge to vomit came up, but it was already too late for her to even rise up.She emptied all the content in her stomach on the floor, making the air reek strongly of undigested food."My lady, I need to tell you something," Arthur was already opening the door and walking into the room, "Jesus," he uttered upon seeing vomit on the floor."My lady!" He dashed toward her side, looking scared, "are you alright?""I don't feel so good," Ophelia mumbled with her eyes half closed and a concerned-looking Arthur put

    "You're six weeks gone, my lady," the doctor informed Ophelia after making his way in."Come again, perhaps I might have misheard you," Ophelia breathed out faintly from where she laid to rest, "perhaps the news is for someone else and not me.""I'm afraid you're the only patient I've had this morning."Ophelia cleared her throat and maintained eye contact with this doctor who she thought had probably gone mad or something."If this is a joke, I'll advise you to stop it immediately as I am not in a good mood for it," she shot him a flat look."You're six weeks pregnant," the pack doctor repeated and strength from nowhere suddenly enveloped Ophelia, so that she rose from her bed and sat upright to face him."Pregnant!?" Christ, this was unbelievable."Yes," the doctor accompanied this reply with a nod."Are you sure this isn't a blooper on your part? Run the test over again.""I did it thrice for proper confirmation, my lady," there was a smile on the doctor's face and Ophelia had her m

    "You told Ophelia I was in the darkened corner, beside the castle when it was Presley you had to wait there." "Yes, my lord.""Why?"Because I was blinded by jealousy, I wanted to separate you two."And gasps resounded.Finlay was interrogating Lewis in the counsel hall that had the council of elders and the Crimson Paw pack. He wanted everyone to hear Lewis as she confessed, so they would all cease from calling Ophelia a barren little slut."So you had this sorcerer do black magic on a grass straw, to make my wife see Ronan as me." "Yes, my lord," Lewis couldn't deny anything. She felt guilty enough to tell lies and so she just remained where she was, with two guards standing beside her so she wouldn't escape.Presley on the other hand stood a few meters away from Lewis. He had been given fresh clothes and was taken to the council hall as well."My lord, she said to kill me if I dare make this known to you or anyone," Presley spoke up when Finlay shifted his gaze to him."Is this t

    "She's not here," Arthur answered Finlay who just ignored him and looked around the tavern, in search of a small woman without hair. But he couldn't see. All the women present had hair."My lord," Finn Ravenscort went to meet Finlay and bowed. Everyone else in the tavern was stunned to have the Alpha of the Crimson Paw pack there in the tavern, "I apologize for my son's behavior, he's rather in the mood today."Finlay didn't even respond. He could feel Ophelia's presence even though he couldn't see her and that was the main reason he was ignoring everything else he was being told.Ophelia on the other hand could feel all the hair in her body rising. Finlay had come to look for her and it felt like one of her fabricated thoughts. She had her heart slamming against her chest with force and the ale which she was pouring into a customer's cup had filled up and was pouring over the table.Why did he come?And how did he know she was there?Because he had refused to leave even when Arthur h

    "No, don't do this, please." Ophelia could feel it all crashing beneath her because she had gone way too far with her emotions, "just don't fight him."Arthur immediately took his human form and looked at Ophelia."A fight the Alpha wants, a fight he'll get. I cannot let him have you, my lady," Finlay's growling wolf was nearing the side of Arthur slowly, with bared fangs."He'll kill you, he's stronger than you can ever imagine." Ophelia was breathing really hard, she made to pull the boy backward but he shifted.Finlay was enraged to have his wife fear for this lad, to be on his side. He felt betrayed and murderous because it was killing him to see Ophelia with someone else who wasn't him."Please, Arthur! Back out now," this was from Finn Ravenscort who knew the life of his only child and family was at stake."No, father." Arthur shifted into his wolf once more and just as he was about to charge at Finlay, Ophelia decided she had had enough and got in the way."I'll go with you!"

    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.

    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
