Chapter 121“That is the same thing you are always saying, you are always sorry for doing the same thing over and over again. I don’t know what I want to do to earn your trust, I don’t,”“I thought I just said I was sorry, What else do you want from me, I was wrong and I admitted,” Vanessa said.“You thought you said you were sorry and you want me to take that from you. This is ridiculous and I don’t think I can take it any longer from you,” he stated.“You can't take what any longer if you can take this then you can leave, I am not begging you to stay here, I am so tired of doing the same thing over and over again,” Vanessa yelled.“So am I, I am tired of your nagging and your trust issues,” Jakes said.“Yes, I know I nag a lot and I am not longer apologizing for any of it, I know what I sensed, you brought someone here but I just chose to let it sly and you think you can make the victim here, you can leave if you want too I am no longer begging you,” she stated.“Is this all you hav
Chapter 122“There is a need to know how much weight this secret of them carries,” Jake replied.“It is very weighty, I don’t think she can forget that in a hurry, she can’t live with that after finding out this little secret about them,” Vanessa replied with a smile as she slowly went to take a seat, crossing her leg slightly.“How are you so sure about this? the way you are bragging about this, you seem to be confident about this,” Jakes said as he went to sit beside her.“I think confidence is an understatement here, I know their secret. I can guess she isn't aware of it,” Vanessa replied.“But that was fast, how were you able to get it this quick?” he asked.“You said it yourself, I can get anything I want if I put my mind to it and if I want to do it and this I am more interested than ever,” Vanessa replied.“Wow, amazing. But if I may ask what is their little secret?” Jakes asked.“Their what?” she asked in shocked, she wasn’t expecting him to ask her this question. “I don’t thi
Chapter 123Leo was peeping and waiting for Fey to come outside so he could give her the flower he brought for her, since she was arrested by the brother, the two of them haven't been on good terms. She didn’t want to listen to anything he as to say no matter how hard he tried, she had been avoiding him since then, he knew whatever he was doing now was risky but for the sake of love he was willing to do anything.He sited her from a distance and quickly adjusted his tie, Fey had also seen him from a distance. She knew he was up to something but she still needed to pass where he was standing or go back inside but she went to do something important.“Fey, Fey,” Leo called out but she didn’t give him a listening hears.“Fey, can you please give me a little ears,” he said while touching her a little.“How dare you touch me, do you know the meaning of what you just did? I could actually report you to your boss for what you just did,” she stated.“I know you could do that and a lot more bu
Chapter 124Fey came into the room excited with a smile, though she missed Leo's presence. there was a need for him to apologize for what he did to her. She intentionally mentioned James to make him jealous, he is more a man than that gigolo called James.She jumped on the bed with excitement and turned to Layla, it was only then she noticed Layla was moody,“Girlfriend, what is wrong with you?” she asked.“What is wrong with me? you dare to ask me this kind of question?” Layla replied.How could she be asking what was wrong with her in this situation, she was about to get married to a man, they knew nothing about, and not just one but two of them and she pretended not to know what was wrong with her.“I am surprised, you are here moody, this doesn’t warrant all of this, thinking can’t solve this problem, it will only complicate things by making you get sick,” Fey said.“I think that is better, I want to get sick, I think getting sick is an understatement. I want to die. I think de
Chapter 125Carlos went to have a meet with one of the notorious sect leaders in the pack, Pablo. He was exiled because of his evil acts in the past. And most pack members were warned to not have any association with him. Pablo is a drug pusher, a human serial killer, when you mention evil that was the best name you could call him.Carlos moved gently to his chamber but was stopped by some of his men before he gave them a sign to let him in.“What a joy it is to see one of the anointed saints pack in my chamber,” He said as he let go of his smoke.Carlos could hardly see who was speaking because the smoke was covering his face.“You and I know I was never a saint,” Carlos replied.Pablo chuckled a little, he moved the cigarette away from his lips. He hit squeezed the cigarette on the table before he tossed it away.“My long-time friend, how has it been on the other side,” he asked him almost immediately.“It is good here and I hope that is the same with you,” Carlos replied.“You kno
Chapter 126:“Yes, we can take over the throne together. And we rule the pack forever that has always been your dream. This has been your greatest heart desire,” Carlos stated.Pablo laughed out loud.“That is so thoughtful of you, finally someone is thinking in the right direction. You know the throne belongs to me and I have to take it,” Pablo laughed out.Carlos didn’t expect it to be this easy to get him on his side.“Yes, you deserve the throne and for everything they have done to you, now is the time to get your revenge,” he stated.“You are right, now is the time for revenge and I will make sure I squeeze the life out of them and make them a bag for mercy with their last breath,” Pablo agreed.“Yes, exactly, this is what they truly deserve,” Carlos stated.“If I may ask didn’t you want to be an Alpha, I thought this was one of your greatest desires?” Pablo asked staring at him.“You mean me?” Carlos asked pointing at himself.“Yes, you. You are the only one here with me so you
Chapter 127“Marry my daughter? how is that even possible?” Carlos asked.“Of course, it is possible. You asked for what I want and that is what I want?” he stated.“But you know the person we are talking about here isn’t a child, she is an adult who may be already committed to someone. She wasn’t part of the deal, you can ask for something else and I will give it to you, so leave her out of the deal,” Carlos snarled. “Leave her out of the deal,” he smiled, “You must be joking, she became part of the deal the moment you came here. All my life I have always wanted few things but two things are one of my greatest desires,” he stated as he stood up “Two things have been my greatest heart desire one is to be an Alpha,” she looked straight into his eyes, “But guess what the second is?” he paused for a while, “I have always loved your daughter, I have always wanted to feel the warm of her skin…”“Enough, Pablo that is enough, you need to leave my daughter out of this. Let us be serious he
Chapter 128Malcolm walked in majestically and sat on the chair.“Who asked you to sit down,” Lucius asked.“I know you will eventually tell me to sit, I don’t want to stress you on that,” Malcolm stated.“Stress me, can you see what you have caused?” Lucius turned to Darius and asked, who replied with a nod to let him be.“You called me earlier, you said there was something you wanted to tell me, here I am you can tell me whatever you have for me now,” Darius said.“Yes, I called for this meeting and what I am about you see will go a long way in helping you, I am here for your interest, I only want to serve you and this is what I have committed,” “You talk a lot, we didn't have this meeting to listen to your fables, tell us what you have for us, and stop wasting our time,” Lucius interrupted.“That is where I was going before you interrupted me, I see no reason why you can’t be patient. This is between life and death and I know what I am risking by being here and trying to get you t
Chapter 252:The sun painted the sky with hues of orange and pink as Layla, Darius, Lucius, Diane —her mother— and their energetic quadruplets spread out a vibrant picnic blanket on the lush green grass years after the incidence that almost took her life.The scent of blooming flowers and the distant sound of a babbling brook created a tranquil ambiance around them. The family had decided to take a break from the hustle and bustle of their eventful lives, choosing to immerse themselves in the serenity of nature a few months after everything that happened to them.Layla watched with a smile as the children, a whirlwind of laughter and energy, chased butterflies and played tag. Darius was setting up a portable grill, the scent of sizzling barbecue already wafting through the air."You know they pretty much look like you when you were at their age,” Diane said, which made Layla come out of her mind and smiled.“Do they? They are draining the life out of me with their stubbornness,” Lay
Chapter 251:The moon cast an eerie glow over the ancient clearing where the Council of Wolves convened. Tall trees surrounded the clearing, their branches intertwining to create a natural canopy that shielded the area from prying eyes. It was where the Council held their meetings any time a member committed an offense.A hushed silence settled over the assembly as Rosa and Vanessa were escorted to the center, where a circle of powerful wolves awaited them.Magnus, from his seated position, fixed his penetrating gaze on the two culprits. "Rosa and Vanessa," he growled, his voice echoing through the clearing. "You stand accused of heinous crimes against the pack. Your actions have sown discord, mistrust, and fear among us. Explain yourselves."Rosa stepped forward with defiance in her eyes. "It was never my intention to cause any disharmony in the pack. All I have ever wanted was the unity of this pack. I never knew it would end up this way. It was all for the greater cause," she
Chapter 250:The café was bathed in the soft glow of afternoon sunlight as Leo walked in, searching for Dane. She practically denied him access to her house after everything he had done, this was the last time to make things right with her. He spotted her sitting at a corner table, engrossed in a book. Determination set in, he approached her, ready to confront the tension that had lingered between them.Leo cleared his throat. "Dane, can we talk please?"Dane looked up, her eyes narrowing with a mixture of surprise and skepticism. "What do you want, Leo? There is nothing to talk about?" she stated and continued readingLeo took a deep breath, his gaze steady. "I want to apologize. I messed up, and I want to make things right. Sincerely I am sorry for everything I did, I should have done better."Dane scoffed, a defensive wall evident in her posture. "Apologize? Is that supposed to make everything okay? So you expect me to receive you with an open arm."Leo sat down across from her,
Chapter 249:The minutes stretched into an eternity as Lucius and Darius waited in the hushed anticipation of the hospital reception. The swinging doors leading to the theater remained steadfastly closed, concealing the fate of Layla and their unborn children.Finally, the doctor emerged, his expression somber. Lucius and Darius shot to their feet, their eyes locking onto the doctor as a silent plea for information hung in the air.The doctor approached, his gaze heavy with a sadness that echoed through the room. Lucius's heart sank, and Darius's grip tightened on the edge of the chair. They urged the doctor to speak, their words a symphony of anxiety."Please, tell us. How is Layla? How are the babies? Please say something, are they fine?" Lucius implored, his voice strained.The doctor took a deep breath, the weight of the news evident in his eyes. "I'm sorry. Layla experienced complications during the surgery. We couldn't save the baby, it had to be between her or the baby."A h
Chapter 248:The hospital reception was a canvas of subdued hues, the gentle hum of conversation and the distant shuffle of footsteps creating an ambience of anticipation. Lucius, perched on the edge of an uncomfortable chair, checked his watch for what felt like the hundredth time. The sterile white walls seemed to close in as minutes stretched into an agonizing eternity.Lucius was oblivious to his environment, not minding the activity going on in the hospital.The goal was Layla, nothing must happen to her. It was the second time she was facing this kind of situation and it was irresponsible on his own side.How could he not protect their supposed Luna as an Alpha that he was?Lucius couldn't shake the knot of worry in his stomach as he waited for any news about Layla. The theater doors loomed before him, a barrier between him and the answers he desperately sought. He stood, pacing the small waiting area, glancing at the doors every few steps as if expecting them to swing open wi
Chapter 247:Lucius felt a cold shiver run down his spine as he burst through the door, closely followed by Darius and Leo. Layla lay unconscious on the floor, her usually vibrant eyes now closed. Panic gripped Lucius's chest."Darius, something's not right. We need to get help," Lucius urged, rushing to Layla's side.Darius swiftly pulled out his phone and dialed the emergency number, his voice urgent as he described Layla's condition to the operator. Meanwhile, Leo crouched down next to Layla, gently trying to rouse her."Layla, come on. Wake up," Leo muttered, his voice filled with concern.“I should have known from the start,” Darius spat angrily.“What happened?” Lucius asked turning to Mary while attending to Layla at the same time.“I don’t know I just saw her lying there, I swear I don’t know,” Mary stated in fear.“Why the hell are they taking so much time?” Lucius yelled at Darius, ignoring Mary, “Can you call them again?” he urged.“I am trying to..." Darius replied but h
Chapter 246:Leo paced back and forth in his quarters, his mind a whirlwind of conflicting thoughts. The weight of the discovery in Dane's wardrobe pressed heavily on his shoulders, and he couldn't shake the unease that gnawed at him. He glanced at the folded letter in his hand, the evidence that threatened to unravel the fragile peace within the pack.As he mulled over his options, he couldn't escape the turmoil within. The pack had been through enough, especially Layla. She didn't need another layer of deception and manipulation. Leo clenched his fists, the frustration building within him.Eventually, he made a decision. He needed to tell Darius that Dane was the traitor, he wasn’t going to let emotions get the best out of him.But it pained him that Dane wasn’t the person she claimed she was.Leo stormed towards Darius's office, his determined strides echoing in the quiet hallway. He knocked briskly on the door, and Darius looked up from his desk, a questioning gaze in his eyes
Chapter 245:The room was cast in a soft glow as Leo surfs through Dane's wardrobe, a single purpose guiding his search. He needed his credit card, but as he moved the clothes aside, his fingers brushed against a stack of letters. Curiosity piqued...He pulled them out, his eyes narrowing as he recognized the distinct handwriting that mirrored the ominous letters from Jake.He took a look at the letter once again if it was a dream but it wasn't.It was the letter from Jake with the same content and handwriting.Dane walked into the room, catching Leo off guard. He held up the letters, his voice steady but laced with suspicion. "What's the deal with these, Dane? They look a lot like the letters we've been getting from Jake."Dane's eyes widened, and she stuttered, "Leo, what are you doing going through my things?"Ignoring her defection. Leo pressed on. "Answer the question. Why do you have letters that mirror the ones from Jake? I need you to start talking now?""What letter?" Sh
Chapter 244:Layla and Rosa sat in the living room. The air filled with the warmth of shared secrets and laughter. They were surrounded by the familiar comfort of their home, a safe haven from the challenges that awaited them beyond its walls. The twins had always been a source of support, and today was no different.Rosa glanced at Layla, etching her features. "You sure you're okay, Layla? You've been coughing a lot lately. Maybe you should see a doctor. This pregnancy is very taking a toll on you.”Layla waved off the suggestion with a weak smile. "It's just a cold, Rosa, nothing to worry about. Besides, we have more pressing matters to discuss."Rosa leaned forward, her curiosity piqued. "The letters, right? But your health should be your greatest priority now. Have you figured out who might be behind the letters?" she asked wanting to know the recent information concerning the situation.Layla sighed, her eyes reflecting a mix of frustration and fatigue. "Not yet. It's like ch
