YVONNE —
I stepped into the palace with a frown. Today, which I thought would be a great day—a win day for me and the entire Moon Stone pack—nearly turned into the worst day for me. However, I was grateful that I managed to escape the trouble.I went straight to the guest quarters to have enough rest, but only if my kids would permit me to do so. They would certainly want me awake so they could tell me stories about how they spent their day with Alpha Conan.Upon arriving at the guest quarters, I realized that the door, which is usually locked, was open, and I was really mad at my kids for doing so."What if someone breaks in and hides inside the room, then performs his mission at night? I don't know why these kids are becoming careless and reckless these days. It seems it's because of this environment they are in. Certainly, we should leave this city not only because of Sophia's threats but also to save my kids from developing this bad habit," IYVONNE—"Excuse me, ma'am. What do you want? You could have requested one of the maids to inform us what you wished to be served. You are not supposed to be here," the chef stated."Sorry, let me have my way. I'm looking for my kids, triplets. They are two girls and one boy. About this height and size," I said, making a hand gesture to show their size and height. "Please, I want to know if they came here and probably got stuck," I responded."Ma'am, I'm sorry, but we don't permit anyone here to talk more of kids," the chef replied, his face written with scrutiny.I could notice the suspicious look she was giving me. Probably she thought I had come to spy on the kitchen or poison the food, only to be shocked to notice someone was there.I did not respond to her anymore but went straight to the cupboards, ransacking the whole set of items and even opening the cover of the pots on the cooker as if they could fit inside the pot.Truly, one can go insane when tragedy happens to her."Ma'am,
CONAN —"Calm down, Yvonne. This should not lead to insulting my generation and my mom." I said."Then tell me what happened to my children. I left work this morning just to come back without seeing them in the house," she responded.I was curious if she was doing some sort of prank or joke, but she was damn mean. In fact, saying she was serious was an understatement because of how mean her face was."Calm down, okay? Being mad at me would not solve this issue but worsen it instead. We should go in search of them first," I told her."Okay. You should do the searching because I have searched everywhere I could but could not see them," she stated, causing me to be confused."Of course, the kids were in their apartment when I left for lunch with Mom. Does it mean they walked out of the palace when I left? Then who would they be looking for outside because I am the only one they enjoy staying with?" This was the thought that was going on in my mind."Well, perhaps they left with the acting
CONAN —The weight of last night's incident weakened me as I woke the next day.I stared beside me, and Yvonne was still sleeping. I glanced at the wall clock and realized that it was already seven o'clock a.m. Yvonne had refused to sleep last night. Instead, she was sobbing, cursing, and wailing for the loss of her children until around two o'clock in the morning before she finally dozed off.I sighed, caressed her cheek and her hair, and covered her body perfectly with the duvet before I gently walked down from the bed, heading to the restroom to rinse my face and also brush my teeth.Yvonne had refused to go back to her room last night but insisted on going in search of her kids. Honestly, it was a tough fight before I was able to convince her to withdraw from going to search for them that night after multiple promises and assurances I gave her.However, she asked if she could sleep in my room, as she was too heartbroken to stay alone in the guest quarters. And I accepted without a
CONAN —"Then who could this be?" I mumbled, confused."Well, either way. This issue needs to be tackled very quickly, and the culprit should be investigated," I declared."Caspian!" I yelled."Yes, Alpha," his voice echoed from behind."Go out there and inform the detectives that I need their presence. Be very fast in delivering the message," I demanded."Alright, my Alpha," he nodded and left for the police station to deliver the assignment."You all can go back to your duty posts for now until your attention is needed again," I instructed the maids and the security guards, and they began leaving the chamber, muttering to themselves."This is unbelievable," the first man remarked."I believe that Anney truly knows what happened to the kids. I do not trust that girl," the second person added."Well, let's wait till the investigation is carried out. She might be innocent. Remember that she is also missing," another servant chipped in.As they were done leaving, I exhaled a heavy breat
CONAN —"Alright, go on," I responded.He gulped and dipped his hand inside his chest pocket, brought out a recorder, and turned it on."Alex, do the needful," he signaled to his colleague, and the young man named Alex brought out a pen and paper for jotting down pieces of information."Firstly, what are the names of those that are missing?" he asked. "Their height as well is necessary," he added."Their names are Kiara, Liam, and Amelia, then with the maid who was the one that took them out on that evening," I answered with an honest look."Okay, what about their heights?" he went on."Uhm, I can't really tell exactly what their heights are because they are kids, but they should be 3 feet tall. Yes, 3 feet." I nodded in affirmation."Okay, what about the lady?" Inspector Williams asked, staring directly into my eyes with observation."Uhm, Anney should be 5 feet tall. She's a plus size," I replied."Alright," he said, turning to Alex, the detective who was jotting down the whole inter
YVONNE —I could not stop crying, despite the words of consolation Gamma Lola had been telling me. Throughout today, I had not eaten nor drank anything called water. The thought of my kids was the only thing I could think of."Doctor Yvonne, please try to eat, okay? Alpha Conan and his men are on the lookout, and he has even brought in detectives to make the matter easier. So trust me, when I said your kids would be found, they are fine," she said, but I did not pay heed to any of those things she said; all I was concerned about was having my kids back.Although I know that Conan signed a contract about our safety and would be held accountable if anything happened to us. However, the contract means nothing to me now because even if he were sentenced to death, it would be of no value or benefit to me if my kids were not found."Goddess, please let me have my kids. I swear I will leave this useless bloody pack within the blink of an eye," I cried."Who knows if they have eaten since yest
YVONNE —"Help you say and not get my kids back to life," I sighed and dabbed my eyes with the handkerchief."Calm down, Yvonne. Calm down, okay?" The queen said, patting me on the shoulder. "You know it's not anyone's fault in this situation. Not the Alpha, nor was it my fault, but rather Anney, the maid, who took them out for a stroll," she explained."Who is the maid working for?" I asked aggressively, causing her brows to rise."Don't blame this on Conan, Yvonne. This issue happened in the Moon Stone pack and should be brought together as members of the pack to tackle," she went on to defend her son, Alpha Conan."Queen Monica, the Moon Stone Pack has nothing to do with the missing of my kids. They went missing in this palace, which has hundreds of maids and fifty security men," I tackled her."Listen, Yvonne. Being aggressive over Alpha Conan would not help but worsen the situation. I know you both had past issues, but that should not cause him to kidnap your kids from you," she o
Conan —I could not really tell when Yvonne had become this way. Like, she was literally lying about the whole thing. And the annoying part was how she would always maintain an honest look to confuse me and make me think she was telling the truth.But one thing she did not know today was that I came prepared. She will certainly tell the secret she has been avoiding to anyone, including her own kids."Are you ready to answer my question, or should he go on and play the audio?" I threatened."Conan, are you really the one doing this? Have you forgotten what you signed? For god's sake, you should be out there in search of my kids and not coming to my room to harass me," she roared at me.I was so infuriated that I could not hold back my temper, and I raised my hand to hit her, but Gerald quickly intervened."Don't do it, my Alpha," he pleaded."Please, Conan, don't worsen the whole situation. Let us focus on finding the kids first. You know she is in pain, so she would say anything out of
Two Months Later SOPHIA — I was lying helplessly today on the corner of the gutter when a car ran across me, splashing me with dirty water from the potholes as usual. To my greatest surprise, the car halted and the driver alighted. It was a lady. I thought she was coming to scold me for not avoiding her car at first, but I was shocked to my bone marrow as I noticed it was Yvonne. "Oh my goodness! Sophia, is this you?" she screamed as she noticed I'm the person. She must be really happy. Tears streamed down my cheeks immediately because I concluded that she would make a joke of me, but the reverse was the case. She ran to me and helped me get up. "Yvonne, I'm really sorry for everything I have made you pass through in life," I apologized, crying. "It's okay, Sophia. That is not necessary right now. You need proper medical attention first. That is the most important thing," she said, opening the back door of the car for me to enter. "Get in the car so we can leave for the hospita
YVONNE —Three days later, the DNA result was finally out, and I was really happy about it. This was because it proved positive. Conan is actually the father of the kid—he is the father of all my kids. This means I will be going back to the pack. At least he could see his baby for the first time.Although I had agreed with Mr. Thomas on his request to go back to Conan, but I am still sceptical about it.I was still in my room robbing some body cream and powder on my baby when Amanda walked in."You are still worried about this. I thought he made a promise to you about your career. Didn't he?" Amanda asked me as she walked.It seems she had been eavesdropping from the door for a long time before she walked. Of course, for her to notice I was worried, she must have heard the disturbing murmuring I had been having with myself here for almost thirty minutes."Not really, dear. I was just having a debate over something that had... ""A debate?""Whatever, Amanda. Please just let me be. By
YVONNE —"Alright, Mommy, but remember your promise," Kiara stated, and they started leaving reluctantly.As soon as they left, I let out a deep sigh of relief. I could not believe that I had just managed to avoid the question Kiara asked without them suspecting I did not want to answer the question."By the time you would be back, I believe Amanda would be at home, so she could continue with you guys. It is only if you guys see me by then that you will be requesting an answer concerning Kiara's question," I mumbled.I picked up my phone and dialed Dr. Naty's phone number. I need to call her and inquire about our deal because she has yet to call me.As I dialed the number, the phone rang for a few seconds, and it ended without being picked up by someone."Maybe she is still busy with work in the hospital," I mumbled, dropping my phone.I went to the kitchen to get lunch ready for my kids because I did not know exactly when Amanda would be back for me to depend on her to prepare lunch
YVONNE —One Week LaterI was just returning from the hospital, and the thought of my discussion with Mr. Thomas kept flashing through my mind as I was driving.I could not believe that I had just agreed to his request. Only if he knew that I did that out of pressure."Well, the DNA test will conclude," I muttered.I had managed to reach out to Sophia and requested that she get me Dr. Naty's contact information after she objected to doing the task, saying that she is avoiding Conan because he would kill her upon seeing her. It was then that I told her to get me Dr. Naty's phone number so she could do the job for me.At first, Dr. Naty argued about doing the job, but when I told her the reward for the project, she quickly hopped on it.She told me the job would take her a week because of the procedures she was to follow, so Conan would not suspect anything wrong.However, it has been one week since I gave her the job, so I am waiting for her feedback today."I hope this works out well
YVONNE —But how am I going to do that when none of the two men are with me here in New York City?I thought for some time but could not come up with a valid idea."No. I need to do something fast," I muttered and stood up to leave for my room.As I walked into my room, I remembered that I had spoken with Sophia a few days ago. I recalled how I ended the call with her, promising to call her back only not to call as I said."I think she is the person who can work this out for me since she is in the pack. Yes, she is cunning and could do all sorts of dirty jobs," I mumbled. I picked up my phone to dial her number, and immediately, I realized that she told me she did not have a phone anymore. She only called me that day through a call agent.I decided to secretly get the blood samples of Conan and his hair to do the DNA test in the city without going to the pack just so I could be sure he is truly the father of my baby."So how do I reach this girl, for goodness sake?" I wondered.A few
YVONNE —"Girl, I could not even believe you did this to me in the office," I said to Amanda as I walked out to the sitting room, where she was busy watching movies."I'm really sorry, dear. For real, I can't believe I did that. It was as if a spell was cast on me. I could not even raise my gaze anymore until the moment he asked for my contact," she stated."Oh, you both exchanged phone numbers as well?" I asked, chuckling.I never even knew all that happened in the office. It was the moment I left for my office to get Mr. Thomas what he requested I should get him that they did that. I had thought he really needed those files, unaware that he was just trying to send me out of the office to excuse them just so they could have their moment."Maybe that was the reason you insisted on going with me just so you could perch yourself on him," I remarked, feeling infuriated. How could she do that to me? How could she stoop so low just for a man?
SOPHIA —I could not tell exactly what was wrong with me. The past two days have been hectic for me because I have been sick. I could not afford to go to any medical centre, though, because I had no money with me.The last money I had was the one I used to call Yvonne yesterday, but she refused to speak with me, forcing me to end the call with a promise to call back, but since yesterday until now, she has not called back.I visited the call centre yesterday at exactly five o'clock, which I told her, and I waited till eight o'clock in the evening, yet the call centre agent did not receive a call from Yvonne.I lay on the floor, inside the bush, crying. This was the only place I could stay during the day because there was no shelter I had other than the kiosk where I sleep at night. However, during the day, it is always in service to the owner because that is a coffee shop.Meanwhile, today was the day I had promised both Alpha Conan and the Lycan king to get Yvonne for them. However, I
YVONNE — As we were walking to the elevator, which would take us through the last floor where Mr. Thomas' office is located, my pulse began racing faster. I waved at my colleagues, who were greeting me. Some were excited to see me again after one month of being absent from work. "Dr. Yvonne, welcome back!" one of them remarked, waving her hand at me with her face filled with joy. "Thank you, dear. Unfortunately, I have not resumed work. I still have one more week to go," I replied, walking to her and giving her a warm embrace. She was among the people who made me wish not to ever leave this hospital due to how nice she had been to me. A few minutes later, we managed to walk out of the hall where the staff were, and we headed to the place where the elevators were. "I hope I have the confidence to say what I think is best for me inside his office," I muttered. We entered the elevator, ascending to the last floor. Amanda turned her gaze on me with a smile. "Now I know the reason yo
YVONNE — "Yvonne, are you not yet ready?" Amanda's voice sounded from the sitting room. "A few minutes, please. I'm almost done," I responded, hurrying to apply body cream to my body. Today was finally the long-awaited day on which I had agreed to meet with Mr. Thomas and give him feedback on what I had concluded. However, Amanda had requested to escort me just in case it got to a point where I could not defend my opinion and freely say what I had concluded, then agree to what would not sit well with me out of pressure. A few minutes later, I was finally done dressing. I stared at myself in the wall mirror in my room, and behold, I was satisfied with the way I looked. A smile of satisfaction crept onto my lips. I picked up my baby, carried him in the baby carrier, and walked out of the room, heading to the sitting room to meet Amanda. "How do I look?" I asked her as I walked out. "Absolutely stunning!" she yelled, and I blushed a little. "Well, let's get going. It's al
