YVONNE —It was early morning when I woke up, even before Alpha Conan, and this was because of how desperate and excited I was to leave the pack. Throughout the night, I could not even sleep, as all I was thinking was about leaving the palace with my kids tomorrow, which is today.Nonetheless, I was also worried that I would be caught, but I had already made up my mind. It's either I leave this pack or nothing.I reached for my phone, and upon unlocking it, I noticed that it was 4:20 a.m., and my eyes widened in surprise. I never knew that was how early I woke up. Honestly, I thought it was already five o'clock. I took a glance at Conan, and behold, he was still asleep.I gulped down the lump in my throat and then decided to browse through my phone in order to keep myself busy while waiting for the day to become brighter.As I unlocked the phone and went to the media to watch some reels with my earpiece plugged into my ear, I heard a loud
CONAN — "This is almost evening, and they are not yet back. What type of shopping are they doing? From morning till now, they are not yet done shopping," I muttered, wondering what could have gone wrong. I picked up my phone from the table beside me and dialled the chauffeur number, whom I assigned to Yvonne. I wanted to find out what had kept them so long in the shopping since Yvonne's line was not going through. As I dialled the number, it rang for a few seconds, and he picked it up. "Hello, Maverick, what has kept you guys out there? Since morning you drove them for the shopping and hadn't returned, what is happening? I was even scared if something had happened to them on the road," I asked him. "I'm sorry, my Alpha, but I'm at home. I have been at home since morning," he replied. My eyes rolled in their sockets upon hearing that. "What do you mean? Are you not supposed to drive them to their destination? Are you crazy?" I yelled at him, infuriated by his reply. "I'm sorry,
CONAN —"Do not fret, Mom. I'm fine," I stated as she left.As soon as she left, I took out my phone and searched for Caspian's number. As usual, it rang for a few seconds, and he picked it up."Hello, Caspian. Come as fast as possible to my room," I stated, and then ended the call.I took a glance at the wall clock and realized it was already six o'clock p.m."Gosh, this means that they are missing. They had been abducted, and her phone was snatched away from her," I concluded, standing up immediately so I could head downstairs and make an arrangement on how to go in search of them. I could not wait for Caspian to appear anymore before finding my way to solve this issue.However, as I opened the door to leave the room, I bumped into Caspian."My Alpha, what really is the problem? I thought you told me you had already found what you were looking for," he asked curiously."Do I really have to tell you I said that to avoid raising the issue in front of Mom?" I responded and retreated to
YVONNE — I let out a deep sigh of relief as our plane landed on the big field of the city, and a smile of joy crept onto my lips. "Mommy, are we now back in the city?" Liam asked as he read the big signpost with a caption of the city's name, New York. "Yes, honey. We are back in the city," I replied, still smiling. "But Mommy, you said we were going shopping for the upcoming party Daddy had mentioned hosting for us," Amelia remarked. Nonetheless, I did as if I did not hear her comment. "Mommy, what about Daddy? Is he coming with us here in the city?" Kiara asked. "Yes, dear," I responded. "But Mommy, you did not tell him we were leaving for the city. Instead, you told anyone, including us, that you were taking us shopping," she added. "We discussed it in our room before making it open in the dining room. It is in this city that the party would be hosted," I remarked, trying to clear their doubt, but they were becoming difficult to convince. They kept asking me questio
YVONNE —It was noon when we drove into our apartment with the Porsche, and Amanda headed to the parking lot and halted.Upon realizing that I'm finally back in the city I was abducted from, I let out a deep sigh of relief."I think it's time to switch on my phone now. At least there is nothing Conan could do now in order to get me back to the Moon Stone Pack," I mumbled.However, after switching on my phone, a thought ran through my mind about the situation the royal palace would be in by now, and I decided to text Alpha Conan and inform him that we were okay so he could worry less about our safety and know we had finally escaped from the pack and gone back to the city.To my surprise, as soon as I unlocked the phone, it started ringing, and upon glancing at the screen to find out who was calling, I found out that it was the same person I had just talked about now—it was Conan.I clenched my lips in confusion. I had double thoughts on what to do—whether to decline the call or leave i
YVONNE —Inside the house, we had just finished eating, and the kids dozed off. They must have felt tired and broke down because of the long journey we had on the plane. Even when we landed, we continued the journey without any refreshments or resting for a bit.Even I felt broken down. How then about kids?"So, Yvonne, tell me, what do you say really happened?" Amanda questioned me."My dear. It's such a long story, but I need to take some rest as well so I can get some strength. I have been through a lot," I remarked, standing up from the dining table and heading to my room."I'm sorry, but I need to sleep now so I can wake up before the kids. If I slept late after them, they would wake up before me, and there would not be a chance for us to have a discussion," I apologized."No, it's okay, dear. You need sleep. Take as much time as you want, hon. After all, you are just coming back from a trip, or should I say you are just returning from a death race?" Amanda resounded, and we chuc
YVONNE — "Uhm, sir, but I think that is not necessary. The good news is that I'm back with my kids safely. Going on a dispute with him would be a total waste of time and money," I responded. I could hear the clenching sound of his teeth as he tried to accept my request. "Well, it's okay, Yvonne. I have heard you," he stated. I could tell it was hard for him to accept from his tone. "Thank you so much, sir," I responded. "So how has work been going since then?" I asked. He sighed and let out a slight hiss. "You already know what the answer should be," he said. "How could work have been going smoothly when you were not present in the hospital? Of course, you know that none of these nurses and doctors have as much experience as you do in this field, so work has been stressful and pathetic," he added. "My bad, sir," I stated, letting out a sigh. "Anyway, do not worry, for I have come back. Starting tomorrow, work will be going as smoothly as it used to be," I stated. "Wha... what
I dialed the number on the old phone and increased the volume so they could hear the result by themselves.As soon as I dialed the contact, they came closer so they could hear their father and also speak with him as they wished.As planned, a female voice was heard from the phone: "The number you dialed is currently switched off; please try again later."I let out a sigh of joy inwardly and then glared at them. "His phone is switched off, dear," I remarked, pretending to be sad about it.Their faces were saddened upon hearing that. "Mommy, could you try his other line? Daddy has two phones," Amelia stated, making me so infuriated that I wished to slap her immediately for saying that. Just now that I had thought I had succeeded in deceiving them, Amelia came up with a logic."Well, I would have done it if I had the number, but unfortunately, it was only this contact number of his that I had because it's always active all the time. Hence, I did not bother asking him for his other number
