"You fucking bought a lady, bringing her home only to discover she was your mate? How does that even work?" Alan asked, his arms crossed over his chest as he paced back and forth in the room with raised brows.

"Well, I didn't know how that happened." Adrian shrugged in answer.

Suddenly stopping in his tracks, Alan turned to face Adrian. "Wait a minute, what about Ashley, what are you going to do with her," Alan said to him, his tone taunting.

"What do you mean what am I gonna do with her?"

"Well, if you must get the point. Your mate is in danger because Ashley might not let her live. There's a competition for power here." Alan cleared his throat.

"And if care is not taken, you might lose the both." Alan avoided eye contact with Adrian.

Adrian went to stand closer to Alan. "There's a more serious situation I'm worried about though."

"What's the matter?" Alan asked, Adrian hardly worried about anything, so he thought it must be important.

    Adrian didn't panic, his face expressionless. "Send more men to protect the borders. Nothing must go wrong. Make sure there are no casualties for women and children."He said, thinning out his lips in a cruel smirk.Dialing Alan's number, Adrian spoke into the receiver."Alan. Get me the names and locations of everyone your damn technology suspects is against this pack."Surprisingly, Alan chuckled. "Now you believe me, huh?" His tone was mocking, but Adrian turned a blind eye. Alan was not standing in front of him, or he would have gotten a punch in the guts.At that moment, Adrian began walking towards his veranda which overlooked the garden as he made to leave the house through a secret back door.He had to get to the borders and fight off rogues and oppositions, even if he knew well that his soldiers were well-trained and could handle it in his absence.As he passed by, he caught sight of Irish and halted in his steps. He was simply enthralled by her beauty. Her mesmerizing honey-

    Shoulders tensing, Irish froze, her mind reeling with questions while imagining the worst-case scenarios.Did Ashley just hear her say she wanted to escape?Was Nora going to be punished for hiding her identity?Walking towards them, Ashley went to stand beside them. "Need I remind you that you both are nothing but servants?" Ashley's yelling voice dripped with malice and disdain.Pointing at the mansion, she yelled."Fucking get back to work!" Her voice was full of authority.Irish's eyes moved to Nora's hand which was already crossed behind her. That was when she realized that Nora was hiding the mask right behind her."I'll get to work now." Nora excused herself, hastily leaving the place and entering the mansion.Then, it dawned on Irish that Ashley couldn't simply recognize the faces of all the servants in the house, and so, she had mistaken Nora's face for another.Letting out a breath of relief, Irish made to leave the place when Ashley held her by the arm pulling her back."Yo

    The next day, Irish kept looking around the room for a route of escape but she found none.Laying back down on the bed, she relaxed her body, reclining, just anything that would make Cynthia delay taking her for an antenatal check-up in the hospital.For a while, she even thought about killing herself. Yes, nothing was better than not letting Ashley have the joy of killing her. Additionally, she had to live for the sake of her baby.She could imagine that sweet cunning smile that would play out on Ashley's lips the moment she was confirmed dead."Never. I can't let this happen. I must act." Irish sighed when the door opened and Cynthia walked in.Irish thought of exposing Ashley but Adrian would think that it was one of her tricks. Not that he was on her side anyway.Jerking up from the bed, Irish went to hug Cynthia tight.Cynthia's brows knit up in confusion. Irish's hug came to suddenly, with a force that wasn't typical of Irish whom she knew was never impulsive.Slowly, Cynthia r

    Gently placing a half-conscious Irish in the back seat of a car, Adrian instructed Michael, one of his men. "Take her to the hospital and I'll make sure to be right on your trail." The soldier and Cynthia had been knocked unconscious as well.Fear appeared in Michael's eyes as he worried a little for Adrian's safety."Yes sir. But Alpha, you..." He trailed off, a little scared because Adrian didn't call for any back up, even after single-handedly tearing apart the rogues that had come to attack."Leave now!" Angry, Adrian barked out his orders as he turned to stare at the two cars, gearing their engines and preparing them to attack him.The sound of the engines revving hard could be heard as the anonymous bad guys approached, their cars, doubling in sight.Adrian frowned hard as he entered his hummer, his eyebrows knitting tightly in determination, as he thought to do to them, exactly what they had done to Irish.Burning rage, fuelled by the thoughts of the state their baby might be,

    Adrian had stayed over in the hospital till the next day.When Ashley came, she couldn't bear to look in his eyes. That look of concern, which he didn't often show to her even if she was not in the best shape, was what threw her off balance, especially because he had stayed over in the hospital the whole night, making himself uncomfortable just to safeguard Irish.Ashley walked into the hospital room, to see Adrian standing right across from Irish, his arms neatly folded over his chest as he crossed his legs, watching Irish intently."Darling..." She walked in after taking a glance of the place, her feet, making little to no sound as she walked."How is she?" She asked with a fake concern as she didn't want to be seen as wicked by Adrian.Because she wanted her husband's attention to be taken off Irish, she went closer to him.Hugging him, she put up a brave smile even though he wouldn't move."Darling, I understand that you care about Irish and our child, but you only just got back

    "I'll be right back, Ash. Please make sure the car's taken home." Alpha Adrian handed the keys to his wife and as he was about to storm off, turned to face her Pecking her cheeks, he said, "Please take care of Irish. For the baby's sake." Then he gave her a knowing look, turned around, and stormed off.Settling deeply in her facial expression was a big frown, as Ashley folded her arms over her chest repeating the last words of Adrian's sentence."...For the baby's sake,"Mentally tossing those words around in her mind as they rolled off her tongue, a look of disdain appeared on her face as her lips twisted in an ugly frown.She hated that Adrian committed Irish's safety to her hands.Irish their breeder and slave, was to be her responsibility, at least till they got home...safely, and it made her skin crawl.Walking closer to them, Ashley threw the doctor a scowl. "I want her discharged now. Make it effective immediately."Now that Adrian was gone, there was no more need to pretend t

    Arriving at his plantation, Adrian set his eyes on his plantation and he suddenly felt his heart tear apart. The plantation was a large expanse of land where he reared crop plants, very valuable which could be used as drugs. He'd usually export these plants which would be transported to his drug factory and would then be exported to other packs as finished products. It earned him thousands of millions in one day, and yet, he was watching his entire farm burn right before his eyes. Feeling frustrated, he picked a stone and threw it into the fire. Then got down on all fours and transformed into his wolf form. Who had done this? When did this happen? Who fucking gave the person the audacity to act this way? "We are going to find them, Orion. And when we do, we'll surely tear them limb to limb." Adrian said to Orion, his wolf, who went sullen from the moment the call came in. Adrian's eyes suddenly turned golden as he began howling, giving off a feral energy unmatched, wh

    The next day, Irish woke up with eye bags under her eyes.Her body was already sore from sleeplessly turning and tossing all night.Yawning tiredly, Irish went to stand in front of the mirror. Seeing herself, she couldn't believe her eyes. Except for the little bump in front of her belly, she still maintained her slim and slender figure, because she ate little food. Her appetite seemed to have disappeared the moment her father betrayed and sold her, and her mate was no other than her sole tormentor.Lowering her hands, she circled her stomach and a smile escaped her lips."This baby of mine." She muttered allowing the smile on her lips to break into a humongous laugh.Her baby, the only reason she still had faith, still lived, the reason she wanted to escape from this cruel house.She swallowed hard. "Don't worry baby, I'll escape," she paused, sucking in a deep breath and using her left hand to pat the dress on her stomach area."And I'll make sure to give you my all. Darling, every

    "Tomorrow's the D-Day, and tomorrow, we're going to kill a man." Liam voiced, glancing over his shoulders at Irish who was standing beside him.The cool evening breeze caressed their skin, blowing Irish's hair back and revealing her long neck.They were seated at the pool, their feet in water. Liam had a cigarette sitting in between his fingers.He took a drag and then puffed it out into the air."You smoke?" Liam stretched out his hand with a new cigarette for her."No. Told you that I'm not a fan of distorted minds the moment I met you""You still don't trust me, do you?"Irish shrugged. "I came out to the pool 'cause it was getting quite lonely in there. Jayden went to sleep early." Irish said, diverting the topic.Liam realized this but decided not to pursue his question further."Come sit down," Liam parted the space next to him for her to sit. And when he saw that she was reluctant, he said, "I have a business to discuss."On hearing that, Irish removed her flip-flops and helped

    The next day, Irish invited Jasmine to come to the penthouse and see her, and of course, she did this with Liam's permission.Jasmine walked into the living room, wearing a navy blue jumpsuit, her hair was up in a bun, and she clutched her handbag."I missed you!! Where's Jasmine??" She opened her arms wide the moment she saw Irish seated. Irish got up and reciprocated her gesture, leaving a look of surprise on her friend's face since she wasn't so used to seeing her all jolly and excited."I brought him some fruit. My baby needs to be eating healthy."Irish looked behind her before raising a questioning brow. Jasmine got the message and answered, "Oh, the fruit is outside? The butler took them to the kitchen. Said he'll bring it in on your request.""Is that so," Irish asked, then dragged her friend to sit down on the plush leather cushions."Yes.""You know you can't see Jayden right now. He's at school."Jasmine's face flushed. "Holy crap! Blame my dumb brain. I should have known

    "No way!" Irish yelled lowly as she turned around to face Liam. This was not right. Only couples who lived together or people who were in affairs, and neither of these two cases were the facts in her truth.She didn't really know how to feel about it because it gave her mixed feelings."Look, Liam, I...""I don't have much time," He wrung his hand to check the time. "You've gotten on the wrong sides of the Lupari Clan, and you might need extra security, not just for you but Jayden. Trust me when I say they've noticed you by now."Irish looked away, her intense stare, shifting. "Don't tell me you don't have your interest in this."He slid his hands in his pocket, his gaze hardening, "Well, I don't usually care about the people who work for me, but this mission is important for me, and the whole of the Iron Knight pack. And I have a soft spot for Jayden, so I don't want to screw it up."He paused, sucked in a deep breath while offering Jayden a kind smile. "I'll be leaving immediately.

    "Come on! Liam, that's the only fucking reason I try to keep Jayden safe. It's because I have a lot of enemies." Irish said, her voice dripping with concern because Jayden would have at least mind-linked her for help by now if he were not in danger."Let's get out of here. We've got to save Jayden. I already sent the closest wolf guards to the rescue." Liam said and got down on all fours, and so did Irish.Thick furs replaced Liam's skin while fangs shot out from his fingers as his body transformed into his animal form.Irish's body underwent the same process, except that Irish had a white wolf instead of a brown one."Ready?" Liam mind linked her since he wasn't able to speak in his wolf form. Irish nodded and they took off, running at full speed towards the park recreational center for kids.Liam was faster, so he got there before Irish. When he got there, he howled heavily, causing the whole place to shake from the weight of his animalistic sound.The curtains tore apart and wolves

    Irish froze in her seat, not able to even blink an eyelid.She sucked in a breath as she moved uncomfortably in her seat. She glanced at the window once more before returning her face to Liam.Liam furrowed his eyebrows in wonder. Why did her expression change all of a sudden? "Is anything the matter?" He asked.Irish darted a fearful glance at him, "The Lupari Clan. They are already in this pack and there's no more time to waste. We have to do something to keep them in check, so they don't attack before the anniversary.""Yeah, right. If they ever cause a ruckus before the anniversary, then it would disrupt the ceremony.""We have to tread cautiously if we are ever going to win this war." Irish sighed."Well. These enemies won't stop us from having a good meal tonight." Liam cleared his throat. "I already ordered to have them prepare us a fresh meal. They'll be done in ten minutes."Irish rolled her eyes. "We are supposed to be on the run Liam. And you are talking about sitting to e

    "Mummy, where is Daddy?" Jayden asked, his eyes searing into Irish's in an emotional accusatory look. "But you said Daddy was dead...""Jayden, I'll tell you everything when we get home, okay?" Irish nodded at Jayden. She had been telling him that his father was dead and whenever the smart little boy asked she never bore her husband's name, she simply gave excuses or distracted him by changing the topic.But now, Liam was calling her by her name and her mate's name. What was she going to tell Jayden? How could she defend herself, and how was Jayden going to trust his mother's words again?With the way Jayden's expression quickly changed like emotional turmoil was brewing in him, Irish felt affected."Jayden. I promise to tell you everything once we get home." She repeated, then turned to face Liam again."Last I checked. My family dynamics was never your problem." She said with a stern face.Liam stepped forward, towards them. "Oh, seems like I hit a nerve. Did I?" He folded his arms

    Irish smirked as she intelligently observed the settings of the place. This she did in one swift glance.Her eyes rested on poor Jasmine and she let out a breath of relief. Then she searched the room once more, with her eyes, looking for any possible threats. 14 guards were surrounding Liam and standing at strategic positions.When she saw that she possessed enough to handle these men, she folded her arms across her chest."Release him to me. Now." She trained her eyes on Liam, who had an amused smirk hanging at the corners of his lips."I'll do that. Definitely. But I'm sure I need not remind you of the terms involved." He winked at her and Irish scoffed.How dared he wink at her in a serious situation as this? Did he know how terrible she felt the moment she found out that Jayden was missing and to top it off, there had been a break-in?"Listen, Liam, I don't care who you think you are, but if you don't release my son this minute, I'll make sure you regret it the rest of your fucked

    "Jayden, you see I got you a box of pizza..." The words slowly dried from her throat as she fixed her gaze on the almost closed door of her apartment.Undaunted by what might be the situation inside the apartment, Irish darted into the house, her eyes on alarm, as she scanned the whole place.As she stood in the center of the living room, she felt her body swooning. The television had been smashed, and there was water poured all over the soft rug she had implanted days ago.Barely able to stand in one place, she sprinted towards Jayden's room, and on getting there, her heart and feet skidded to a halt.Her lips slowly parted in shock and disbelief, her eyes swiftly turning here and there as she searched for her son.She ran towards the closet but he was not there. And when she entered the bathroom, he was nowhere to be found."We just left Jayden to get some food. What's happening?" Irish's wolf, asked, feeling alarmed and willing Irish to let her loose so she could run wild in the w

    "How on earth is your question reasonable, Ashley?" Adrian asked, his arms spreading in gesticulation."Adrian, that question is legit reasonable. What am I to you if I know nothing about the pack? Do you even consider me Luna? Or your wife? Or...or..."Adrian sighed, then went to console his wife, to stop her from throwing another tantrum. These days, she ended up picking fights now and then, and she was acting very strange like someone who had lots of skeletons in her cupboard. But what could he do? When in her possession was a dangerous secret he couldn't let loose to the world?This was no longer lust or love, but convenience."Look. Ash. I have never kept anything from you. I just don't think this is important information for you, or else, it would have been at your fingertips by now." Adrian said but Ashley still wasn't satisfied, so she pushed further.Tears glistened in her eyes, "But I want to know. And that's what matters, Adrian if you ever think of me as your wife or someo
