JADE

I was fuming by the time I got the confirmation that Atlas was on his way. I gave the order to get him in and as much as I was rethinking it because of how anxious I was feeling, the interaction with Antonio has my blood boiling and that is what is feeling me generally. I was really fucking angry that he had the audacity to do that.

What does he think? He owns me or what?!?

I wanted to scream out in frustration. Damn. It. Maybe hit him a few times too.

I was seated on the couch in one of the drawing rooms downstairs. I didn’t want him anywhere near my own space. So, this is all he is getting right now.

I had my arms wrapped around me, mostly because I kept getting nervous about the whole bump thing, and well, alphas had a thing for sniffing around they offsprings.

My hand moves over my bump slowly, and I shook my head and reached for the telephone on the table beside me, ready to call the security and tell them to have Atlas leave. He chooses to walk in right at that moment. Beca

    ATLASI was feeling murderous, my blood still boiling from the interaction with that fucking ma. Earlier, and to find out he spewed some lies to Jade about it. I’m not even as annoyed at the fact that he made some shit up. I’m jus disappointed that she believed him, and now this?She actually is pregnant. She hasn’t explicitly confirmed it, but I got all the answers I needed in the way her eyes widened and how she lost her ability to speak. I would have relished in the success of making her speechless after everything she has said tonight. But right now, I’m too busy trying to ignore the burning in my chest to even think of anything smart to say.“So, that’s it?” I asked, timing my head to the side. I didn’t mean for my voice to come out as deep or as harsh as it did. I only even realised that I sounded that way when Jade flinched. And I really wished I had it in me to feel bad.“I don’t know what you’re talking about.” She tried to school her features like it wasn’t already too late.

    JADEI’ve only been to Antonio’s apartment once. Which was weird to think about. We’ve been dating officially for almost a moment, and the only time I came here was when we had dinner, I think it was even our first date and I drank too much so he brought me here. Not much has changed here.Well, it was only a few weeks since I was her and he mentioned anything about a renovation. Thinking of the call I had with Ray the next morning made me smile at the memory fondly. She was here with me, much to her dismay, surprisingly. She loves Antonio but she would rather not be spending her Saturday being our third wheel.Those were her exact words. And she refused to believe me when I told her weren’t spending all day there. I was just going to check on him and then we’ll keep him company. She gave me a look that said she didn’t believe anything I was saying. And until she brought it up, I never considered there was another reason while I told her to come with me. Even if I didn’t acknowledge it

    JADEI was confused for a moment that I couldn’t even bring myself to move. Shock rooting to the spot I was standing while my eyes remained on the place I saw the woman sneak out of.So many questions ran through my mind, why was she running? Who was she? How did she get in? What the fuck is going on? Of course, there was no one to answer all these questions for me. I shook my head, fighting every nasty thought I was having. All the crazy expansions my brain wax coming up with just didn’t seem right.Also, I had to deal with Antonio’s annoyance.Why does everything always go up in flames when Atlas decides to show his face again?I was battling with those unwanted thoughts and what to think of the whole situation with Antonio when I felt a sharp pain in my lower stomach. Instead of panicking, I forced myself to breathe in and out slowly until it subsided. I have never felt anything like ti and it scared me. When I regained my energy, I headed straight to the gate and flagged down a ca

    ATLASI’m not justifying my stalking for making me end up here. Sitting opposite Jade that is still sleeping on the bed, while physically shaking with anger and and joy and rage and relief. I had been speechless when the doctor called me. I mean, I may have gotten someone to switch her emergency contact to my phone umber but I didn’t think it would work.When I received the call that she’d been rushed to the hospital, I dropped all that I was doing, which was searching for her location so I could see what she was up to. It was like the answers I was looking for have been thrown on my lap. I hailed a cap, and screamed at him the entire ride to go faster.They didn’t tell me what was going on with her, just that I was needed in the hospital urgently.Imagine my surprise when the doctor asked why I was here instead of Antonio, her boyfriend, or her father.At first she apologised and said it was a mistake they called me because there was no way I could be her emergency contact.

    JADEThe door opened and we both turned towards the doctor that just walked in, breaking the stare off Atlas and I were having. I finally had a moment to breathe. After what he just said, not just what the said but the way he sounded. I knew it was’t just an empty threat and he would very well win if this case were to go further.I was still legally married to him. And if we do get divorced now, he will get custody. Easily, might I add. I kept this from him for months. That is a crime in this society that was buried in patriarchy. The men are always right and the offspring of an alpha, no matter the number means a lot to them. And I intentionally kept his away form him.The little I managed to get into my lungs was’t enough anymore. And I could feel my eyes stinging with tears at all the thoughts and possibilities of having my baby being taken away from me.“How are you feeling now, Jade?” The doctor tries to smile reassuringly at me. I know she would feel the tension in the room, prob

    ATLASMy mind was running. I was thinking of what to do, how to do it and what results I would get. I was leaving with Jade, that much was clear. The baby she is having is mine, and mine alone. And I am going to be there from now onwards.Maybe it would be bad to say I didn’t care about what she thinks, or what she wants right now. She has done things her way for the past few months. It is time for me to do it my way now.Andrew had been the first to reach out and tell me there were pictures of me heading into the hospital all over social media and the news. And also, from a reliable source, which he found to be the cab driver that had driven Jade to the hospital, they knew Jade was here too. And now, it was a battle of what is going on. Why are we both here and not Antonio.You have no idea how that pissed me off. the audacity they has to mention him while I was with my wife.I have been thinking about the. And not in the usual ‘I want to skin him alive and tear him limb from limb for

    ATLASI paced the room, my mind reeling with anger with each set that I was taking. Donald stood on the other Side looking like he has no idea what to do.“And have you figured out who put that hit out?” I paused and asked, running a hand through my hair in frustration.Two days ago, I wound’t have been this worried about someone trying to kill me. Now that I knew I was having a child with Jade. You cam be sure I’m going to be fucking alive to watch that child grow up. My blood won’t be raised by anyone but me.“We have tried searching, cross-checking the IP address. Reverse searching it. Everything, but nothing comes up.” He sounded as frustrated as I feel. “It is like the person sent this from heaven or some other word because it doesn’t exist anywhere.”I nodded absentmindedly, my mind still running as I thought of what to do. Which avenue to follow. The last thing I wanted was this affecting Jade in any way. Not when she is already sick and carrying a baby. She should be relaxed an

    JADE I was surprised to find Atlas gone when I woke up. He had been too cautious to go anywhere. I don’t know if he expected me to run or whatever he was thinking but I didn’t expect it. Dad was the one sitting on the chair he’d been on earlier. He smiled and got up when he noticed my eyes were open. Standing beside the bed, he takes my hands in his and gives it a reassuring squeeze. He didn’t need to say anything, he already knew everything that went out. It mad eye feel a little worried that I missed the conversation he must have had with Atlas. What did he tell him? He is’t the most calm man in the world and we would really come to it if he disrespects my dad. “Do you want any water?” I nodded because my throat parched, and that sounded really god. There was a pitcher and a paper cup beside the cup which poured and handed to me. I took it to my li[s with slightly unsteady hands. Only when I took the first sip, it felt like. Was going to throw up. But I appreciated the slight we

    JADE“i needed to come see him.”“Why?” He collected the baby from me “I told you that there's no need to. Why do you feel the need to come here even after I told you not to?!”“Because it's not just your victory! It's not just your life that he was after! It's mine too! And it's Ray's too! So yes, I needed to come down here to get closure.”He needed to understand that this meant something to me too, just as it did him.“Closure? Is that why you put the baby at risk? How much more closure do you need?”What on earth was he talking about?“Risk? Incase you didn't notice, I was there with him! I was at risk too! I needed him to look me in the eye and tell me why he did what he did to my family.”“Or maybe it's because you're too hung up on the past and you just can't let go. Incase you havent noticed, you're so stuck in the past and you are obsessing over it. Move on!”Well, I'm glad he finally got to say what he wanted to. Now I know how he feels about me trying to find answers. I w

    JADEI didn't think it was worth it at first. Going to see the man that had made me grow up without parents and without the concept of what a true family felt like.But after much thought, he needed to know that all his plans failed and I was going to rub it in his face..I'd gotten all three pieces of the stone together and wore it around my locket.It would hurt him so bad to see that in the end, I won.Iniko decided that that was the right moment to start crying and everytime I dropped him back in his cot, he cried even louder.“Young man, what is it that you want? You've been fed and burped and I just changed your diaper so there's no way you could have soiled it again -”I stopped and remembered what happened yesterday so I took a peak for myself. There was nothing im his diaper.“So what exactly do you want?”I wish babies could talk.I guess I didn't have any other choice than to take him with me then. Atlas would blow a fuse if he found out that I took his son to see Ford.Whe

    ATLAS“By wasting any more time, we are not doing ourselves any good! Sixth Circle pack is vacant. We have their leader in our custody and I've taken down every opposition in our way, do you think it would be long before we get more interests?”Sometimes, having a cabinet infuriates me so much. It was like I was speaking to brick walls. I didn't see any reason why they couldn't just agree to me taking over the Sixth Circle.It would even be better for us because it would improve our army base, it would make our pack bigger and in general, it would be a plus for us.But they weren't seeing it that way. All they were seeing was the fact that Ford had committed something against the pack and they weren't going to take it.I mean, what better way to teach him a lesson by taking over his pack?“Alpha, we're not disputing the fact that you've gone a long way-”“But you're diminishing my efforts. What's the whole point of defeating him and taking him into custody when I can't even go ahead a

    JADERay and I weren't speaking for now.How could she hide something like that from me?“Where is she?”“I have no idea. All I know is that she ran away when we were little. She knew that he would come after her and she didn't want to put you in danger. So she ran away and left your nanny to take care of you. I don't know where she is.”How could she do this?“Before I lost my memory, did I know?”“No, you never knew.”I couldn't believe this. I lost my appetite for the rest of that day and I just stayed in Iniko's room because I couldn't even speak to anyone right now.I'd spent my life thinking my mother was dead only to hear that she was alive and she ran away because of that beast.“It’s not her fault, you know. Your mother ran away to protect you and Ray didn't tell you because she wanted to keep you safe. You have to forgive her.”I didn't blame her. It wasn't her fault things turned out like this. I was just hurt that I didn't know.Later that day, I took Iniko on a walk so h

    JADEI was just realizing that this baby has Atlas's eyes and hair and everything!“This baby is rigged.”He turned around in shock.“What are you talking about?”“You did something to make the baby look like you.”He laughed and shook his head.“No, I didn't. It's just a coincidence.”“Coincidence? Look at this baby and look at you. It seems like I didn't even have anything to do with his birth.”“Don’t worry, you can have the second baby.”I scoffed.“You think I'm going to let you have another chance to have photocopies? Big joke.”Iniko was so small and he seemed so fragile.Ray brought my food and she took him while I ate.“I wish my grandmother was here to see him.”She gave me a sad smile.“Me too. She would be so proud of you.I'm proud of you.”I'm so happy my sister was here with me. She was the one who had been by my side throughout and if the child had been a girl, I would have named her after Raya.“Thank you for everything you did. If not for you, I don't know how I would

    JADE“I'm going to need your blood as well. Atlas, I promise it won't hurt her. Just a little nick.”He nodded and she dragged the knife across my finger.“Place your finger over the stone and let the blood cover it entirely. Do not take your hand away from the fire.”It was a simple instruction but it seemed so intense.It was almost over. My legs were beginning to feel well and it was getting harder to quiet my screams.“What do we have here?”That voice. He was here.“What are you doing here?”All I had to do was keep my hand over the fire until the stone bled.Ray helped me stand up straight while Atlas and Andrew faced my uncle.“So this was why I came here. How did you do that? How did you call the other stones?”I eventually removed my hand from the fire since we had found them.“I always knew it was with one of you. That stupid old hag told me she couldn't find the other piece but I guess she gave it to you. “Why were all the worst things happening tonight?I was in labor and

    JADEAtlas returned later that evening.I was right with what I'd thought.“What have you been up to?”I knew he knew I'd been eating because of the smirk on his face.“You know you don't have to hide from me when you eat right?”Oh, I did.“If you see how much I eat and the way I eat, I don't think you'd want to be married to me anymore.”He burst out laughing.“What makes you think I care about the way you eat? As long as you're healthy and our baby is fine, I don't care.”“But then, what if I get fat? I'll be so big that I won't be able to eat. I don't know why I eat so much.”This was actually a worry of mine. Normally, I ate but my appetite was not this big.“Blame it on the baby. I figure when you give birth, the cravings will stop and even though you do get fat, you're still my wife. It doesn't change anything.”I was really married to the best man ever, wasn't I?“You’re the best.”“I know. Ray says that we have to get there before midnight so that she can prepare everything.

    JADEAt this point, I was realizing that the earlier we did things, the better.“I’ll arrange for the sacrifice to happen tomorrow. We need to move as fast as we can before he gets Intel that were here.”I didn't want to have to run with this big belly of mine.“What are you going to need?”“Don’t worry, I'll take care of it. Just bring the stone.”We went to bed that night because we were all completely exhausted.“Hey, are you okay?” Atlas asked when we were in bed.“Yes, I am. Why do you ask?”“You didn't cry when you found out that he killed your father. You didn't cry when you found out that she was not your grandmother. I'm worried.”Now that I think about it, it's true. But it was because I didn't feel like crying.“I don't know. Maybe my body just hasn't proceses it yet. Maybe its because I hate him so I'm not bothered that he's not my father and I never really knew my father so i can't cry for him. I've already mourned for my grandmother.”I just didn't feel the need to cry b

    JADE“Jade, step away from that.”I walked back towards them and stared at the pile.“What kind of animal would do this?”I had no idea but I think I was beginning to understand why she wanted us to find this place.This place held secrets.I went back to the wall to look at the drawings and try to understand them.I used my fingers to trace them again and this time around, I heard the voice clearer.“Look at the bigger picture.”I stepped away from the wall so I could see the entire thing. There were more drawings to the side and when I walked up, I noticed that there was a sign at the bottom of it.That sign…looked all too familiar but I couldn't just place my finger.“Ray, come see this. I've seen this before but I don't know where it's from.”She crouched beside me and stared at it for a moment.“I know it's familiar but I don't know where it's from, either.”Andrew and Atlas joined us and just within seconds, they knew.“We know.”They shared a look and it made me scared.“Jade,
