ROMAN POV

Uncle Williams and all the unnecessary stress he puts me through and for what?. Just to prove some worthless ideology of his.

Every day is another opportunity for him to spur out one worthless proverb or another.

I can't believe he pulled me all the way down here to this stupid pack (Maxin pack ) just for a stupid connection.

In his words exactly "It's the connections that matter".

Connections that we are never going to need.

Our stupid meeting took place in the wood. Can you imagine me, alpha Roman, Alpha of Alpha's, having a meeting in the woods with some lousy thugs.

How downgrading.

We were halfway through our meeting when we heard a woman scream.

Of course, uncle stupidity decides to fire his gun.

Turns out the lady wasn't too far from us. By the time we get there she is alone, on the ground all bartered.

She had 2 stab wounds to the lower abdomen and a gigantic wound on the left side of her head which extends to her left eyelid.

One of her electric blue eyes seems to have been over taken by a blood clots.

She looks miserable and pitiful but I know only too much about women to have mercy on her, for all we know she must have been the problem after all.

" Hold her carefully" Uncle says as he places the injured lady's head on my thighs when we get into the car.

" Leave me out of this, Uncle. I don't want to touch her" I inform simply.

Uncle Williams knows how I feel about dirt yet he goes ahead and do things like this just to spite me.

" Don't be like that son. Can you see I got my hand full with preventing her from bleeding to death" He says as he applies pressure on the lady's injured abdominal with a clear towel.

She is completely covered with blood, it's a miracle she is still alive.

" Use this to clean the dirt, and excess blood off her face" He says as he offers me a wet tissue

" No way. I am not a doctor, just transfer her to one of those other cars" I say disgusted by the blood mess on my lap.

" Roman for once in your life, obey my instructions without complaining" He says angrily, which comes as a shock because uncle is never the kind of person to throw a fit.

" Fine, but just this time" I grumble before taking the tissue and gently clean her face.

I start cleaning, and I just can't help but gasp at how beautiful this woman actually is, despite her ugly hairy ears.

She looks so beautiful and innocent inspite of the fact that half of her face is swollen.

She has rosy full lips.

A cute round face like that of my daughter Claire.

I find myself fixating on her face, for no exact reason.

True be told she's not my type. I like my women fat in the right places, but she's just a big blurb.

I then take out my time to gently clean her facial wound, only for her to stop me, by grabbing hold of my hand.

Her hands are rough, sanding and bloody, but for some reason I don't want her to let go, inspite of my clean complex.

' She is beautiful, isn't she?'- Drake, my lycan ask via mind link.

You know for someone who has been avoiding speaking to me for a couple of months now, just because I sleep around with other women apart from our mate.

He is certainly shameless.

What happened to wait for our actual mate.

' Wow, the saint finally spoke and his first words were complimenting another man's mate'- I say mockingly via mind link.

' Why exactly will the moon goddess curse me to share a body with an idiot like you'- He laments bitterly 'She is our mate, idiot'

' No, that's impossible my mate can't be this fat hairy ear freak'- I inform as a wave of shock and horror consumes me.

' You know I speak the truth. I know you feel the pull too'- He says simply.

    DARRICK POV I am sure you must have heard of the saying that all that glitters is not gold, or that the punishment for sin is internal torment. A torment that consumes one from within without warning. What could be worse than that?. Maybe the feeling of guilt of a half broken soul. I hate myself for what I did to my own mate, and I am sure Luke, my wolf hates me even more. What was I thinking pulling a stunt like this, with the woman I love. This is all mom's stupid idea. She said everything would be fine, all I had to do was convince Sapphire that she was the one I loved, and I would go behind her back to beg and explain things to the love of my life, Vixen. I didn't know it was going to lead to the untimely demise of my two babies and endanger her life. ' If I only knew, I would never have done something as stupid as this' I lament before spotting Sam from a distance, heading my way with a disturbing frown and blood covered T-shirt.

She was just a few years old back then and nobody wanted anything to do with her. At first I too didn't want anything to do with a fat ugly wolfless wolf with creepy ears but when she started capturing the attention of Darrick I just had to befriend her so as to be close to the man I loved. I did everything for him to notice me but he never did, because of her. " Ma'am, I am back" Sam voice booms from behind, pulling me out of my thoughts. " How did it go?" I ask with a serious face as I circle him in a nemesising manner. " She is dead and buried just like you ordered" He assures "Good" I say before grabbing hold of an envelope on my

I ask his advice about everything, but today I find myself dumbstruck by his shameless display of lust.How can he shamelessly ask that woman to be his mistress like it is nothing. My head is a mess, not just that I am disgusted. I always thought he was faithful to aunt or that even if he were cheating on her, he would have the decency to hide it from others and probably do it with an older woman, not some young chick in her early 20s. Uncle has got some explaining to do, and I am not leaving till I get to the bottom of this. " You're still here?. I thought you left" Uncle says nonchalantly as he enters his office "You wouldn't believe what just happened. My....."
