CHAPTER TWENTY-NINE: A Reminder Of The Past

Maurene ’S POV

I gasped as the realization dawned on me. Everything blurred as the only thing I could hear were the murmurs. The voices that were directed at me alone. Galen’s wife walked toward us, dressed in a long holding a glass of wine as she smirked at me and offered her husband a look. Immediately, I turned away from them and fastened my steps to the toilet. I locked the door as my chest heaved with rapid breathing. I rushed toward the tap and turned it open. I placed my hand beneath the rushing water and just let it be there since I could not rinse my face.

What was Galen trying to do back then?

I lifted my gaze to stare at my reflection in the mirror. Fear and anguish clashed against each other as one struggled against the other to gamble supremacy. I was back to that time again where I let fear eat at my guts still I couldn't breathe. I needed someone. Someone to comfort me. Someone to hold me before I fall into the deep da

    CHAPTER THIRTY: A woman every man wants Maurene ’S POV I stepped out of the toilet, feeling more refreshed than I was when I came in. I glanced around the hall and noticed no one in sight. Walking majestically to the main hall, I let the words Nathaniel said to me be my new drive. For the first time in years, he had said something that I needed at the moment. He surprised me. I looked around the hall for Liam but couldn't find him. I should not bother. If he didn't notice the stunt Galen had pulled earlier on then why should I worry about him? I lifted my shoulders in a shrug and waddled through the hall. "She is Liam's secretary. At a point when I was discussing with him, he referred to her as his wife." I heard someone say from around me and I halted to a pause. What?? "Wow! So he got her first. I wish I had met her, I would have asked her to be mine." Another man's voice replied. My mouth parted in shock at the convenience they used to talking about me. "That man does

    Maurene’S POV Evangeline looked every bit shocked and surprised. I did not know the reason behind her shock because she quickly recovered from it and glanced briefly at Alex who kept his gaze fixated on Liam. I noticed Liam's hands subconscious snaked around my waist and he pulled me to himself. An unreadable expression on his face. "Hello, nice meeting you." His lips pulled a tight smile as he acknowledged Evangeline who just bobbed her head, looking at him with some sort of expression I could not decipher. "I guess you must have recognized who this is." I faced Alex who didn't have an accommodating look on his face at all as he looked at Liam dead in his eyes. "Yes, I do." Liam replied, his tone tight and not willing to offer more information. He extended his hand out to Alex who dropped his gaze to his hand before reaching to take it even though it was quick and brief. "Is... is he your husband?" Evangeline asked, dragging her gaze from Liam to me, her eyes clearly stati

    CHAPTER THIRTY-TWO: Meeting Her In Tears Maurene’S POV I walked away from him before he could say anything. The memory of him reaching out to hold me was blurry. All I knew was that I had hurried my steps away from him. The tears I have been trying to hold back escaped traitorously as I continued to wipe them off. I bumped into someone, muttering my apology and not bothering to look up. “Maurene?” Nathaniel ’s voice called me and I halted to a pause immediately. My eyes twitched as the tears rolled down, staining my cheeks. I quickly wiped them off and comported myself before turning to him, and offering him a tight smile. “Nathaniel .” I bit out, hoping I had appeared to be okay. “You…” His eyes keened on me as he took one step further. “Are you okay?” “I am okay. You don't need to worry—” “Babe,” Liam’s voice interrupted us and I flickered my gaze to him. His chest heaved with rapid breaths as he paused to flash his eyes between Nathaniel and I. I flickered my gaze to h

    Maurene’S POV “I honestly didn't mean to. But… but… she…” She stuttered. Several possibilities of what might have ensued twirled in my head as I stared at her keenly. I dipped my head lower to let her see I was listening to her. She glanced at her friend who arched a brow in question at what she was saying. “Lovelyn, you don’t need to apologize to her. They belong to high society of course, they think they can downgrade us.” She pulled her friend behind her but the waiter whose name is Lovelyn quickly stepped forward, holding her friend back. She eyed her to stop what she was doing. “I’m really sorry once again. She… She threatened me that if I did not do as she said, she will report me to my boss and make sure I get fired. I know… I know… It was very bad of me to do that but…” “What are you saying, Lovelyn?” Her friend asked, this time talking into line just beside as her friend dropped her head in resignation. She twisted her lips as remorse coated her face. “Im sorry

    CHAPTER THIRTY-FOUR: Shocked As HellMAURENE’S POVI must have heard wrong. Liam did what?I stood rooted to the spot in full shock. When did he leave? He left without telling me?“Maurene, you can consider taking a cab but the weather forecast today is that there will be heavy rainfall tonight. So it is either you enter now, or you let me leave.” Grayson made an annoyed noise deep in his throat as I figured out what to do next. I should give Liam a benefit of doubt. He could still be inside.Right?“You should go.” I told Grayson who for the first time appeared to be taken aback by my response. “W-What?” He stuttered, making me blink.“I trust Liam. There was no way he would leave me behind. He cannot.” The look etched Grayson’s face said it all. Maybe I was just trying to console myself that Liam could do something like that to me. Even if we had an argument with each other. He could still wait for me since he brought me here.“Have you gotten dumber?” Grayson asked before he could

    CHAPTER THIRTY- FIVE: Keep Fighting Maurene’S POV I woke up the next morning with a bad headache. I winced slightly as the pain sunk deeper into my head. I reached for the drawer close to my bed and pulled it open. Taking a tablet of paracetamol, I took two then gulped it down with water. I rested for a while before scrambling down the bed. I dragged my feet out of the room and went downstairs to meet Diana serving the kids breakfast. Their birthday was tomorrow. My phone reminder had reminded me yesterday. An happy smile took over my lips as they looked up to me with bubbly expressions on their faces. They made me remember Evangeline. I had not even called or chatted her up yet since she went missing with her husband. I stopped before the kids, grinning. “A good morning to you, guys!” They all beamed a smile. “Good morning, mommy!” Kylie and Kyle chorused as they chewed on the bread while Kai focused on his meal. He was always in a mood a day before his

    CHAPTER THIRTY-SIX: My Daddy Is Alive Maurene’S POV Liam didn't reply to me. He rushed away from me like a coward and his actions only confirmed to me that he was hiding something. I could not place it but I knew that he didn't just leave the party because he thought I had gone. How could he even think like that? Anyway, I was seated with my laptop. I needed to finish up a lot and yet the only thing I could think of was what Liam was probably doing. I shook my head, blew a breath out, and typed Loretta’s name on the internet. I began to surf. She was a top selling fashion designer. Narrowing my eyes on her picture, it showed she has been divorced for over five years now and has no child. Wow. No wonder Liam didn't take her for real. It still doesn't matter. Being divorced did not mean the end of the world, did it? I went through her business page and saw the dress she had made for me. I did not even see the price tag. Clicking the link to her site, there were so many lim

    CHAPTER THIRTY SEVEN: Birthday Surprise Maurene’S POV Today was my kids’ birthday. As usual, they woke up so bubbly. Diana and I had done a great job of decorating the house with balloons and plasters of their pictures from when they were infants till now. The way my heart swelled at the joyful grins on their lips made me grin too. I was always satisfied when I see them happy. This was yet another day to remind me that I didn't get to tell Nathaniel about them before he chased me out of the pack house that day. Maybe it was good. Who knows? “Happy Birthday to you. Happy Birthday to you. Happy Birthday to you!” Diana and I chorused as the three of them stepped into the living room, rubbing the sleep off their faces. Their lips split into grins as I crouched to their level. “Happy Birthday to you, my babies!” I pulled them into a hug and I heard Kai groan before relaxing into my arms. We pulled apart and Diana greeted them as well. They looked around the place, obviously not r

What I didn't expect was that he would be the one who secretly tormented me and acted like… the savior. I still couldn't believe what Grayson had told me. At this point, I didn't care about what his father did or him… he should kill me. That was the worst he could do, right? I alighted from the car and went into his mansion straight up. Pushing the door open, as expected they were in the living room. They both rose to their feet on seeing me, confused as to the reason I was there. “Amanda, what are you—” I went toward the real Martins and James Cox who happened to be named Maxwell. “Martins. Huh? You are Martins? You are James Cox as well! Isn't it? You lied to me, right? Used me? Right? You wanted to slowly torment me till I went crazy, huh?” I pushed him hard, noticing the look of surprise that

I had somehow gotten her back to one of my penthouses because I didn't want the kids to see their mother in such a broken state. She began to take her clothes off one by one, and my throat bobbed. “Are you sure about this?” I asked, wanting to keep my conscience clear in case she woke up tomorrow and realized her mistakes. She slowly nodded, stepped out of the skirt, and touched my arm. Gosh, I have missed her. I missed her so much. She leaned closer and let me capture her lips in a kiss. It started off slow and sensual but soon proceeded into ravenous. My hands snuck around her waist, and pulled her closer, smashing her tight to my chest. I wanted to feel her. Feel her skin. Be in her skin. I angled my head properly in order to take her lips, and taste her. Every time I saw

I didn't recognize who this woman was but all I knew was that with the visible fear on Liam’s face, she was someone important. “And why are you here?” He questioned her, obviously rattled by her presence. The woman snickered, stepping before Nathaniel. “You think you can rule the wolves? That is just a dream in your silly head. Just like your mother thought she would become the queen of wolves! You are nothing but a result of a stupid dream she had.” She hissed through her crooked teeth as she glared down in disgust at him. Oh, she must be from his mother’s side. “My mother was too weak to win but I will win and you just have to watch it then. I will make sure to bring tribute to you when I sit on the throne,” He smiled menacingly at her. The woman didn't waver. “Liam, give m

    Chapter One Hundred And Seventeen: Kai Goes Missing Maurene’S POV I closed my eyes tight, still riling from the hurt of his words. I didn't think Liam could be that awful. In fact, I had my few suspicions that he could be doing something worse but what I didn't suspect was that he was doing pure evil. The fact that I had also remained oblivious to it made me want to go crazy. I didn't need anyone telling me that Liam had used me. It was glaring and I would be in denial if I didn't want to believe it. Now he told me that he wanted to meet me and explain the kind of person Evangeline was. All of them… they all wanted to use me against Nathaniel. They wanted his pack and they were not able to get it. I had decided to let go of the past and focus on the present with Evangeline, what I didn't expect was that Nathaniel would change toward me. The kiss from last night was still real but the sting of his words speared through my heart. The fact that he told me that

    Chapter One Hundred And Sixteen: Blaire is chosen as the Alpha King Nathaniel’S POV “We will help you to the throne if you allow us, Nathaniel.” Seth said, his thick voice cutting through as we all sat in the office. I stared at him blankly, wondering how everything was so intertwined. “The throne? Who said I wanted the throne? Your nephew?” I arched my brows as I relaxed back in my seat. I didn't let my roam to the feminine figure sitting just beside Grayson who gave me a pained look. I have been doing a great of ignoring them which worked quite well. “You don't?” Seth sounded that he could not believe it. I shook my head. “I don't.” “Then you don't know anything then.” He snorted. I wanted to ask him what that was about but I decided against it. “Since the Alpha King has gone missing and you have chosen not to divulge his whereabouts, it is only right that another Alpha King will be chosen. And that person should be you.” He said, glancing at his nephew. “I s

    Chapter One Hundred And Fifteen: Blaire is chosen as the Alpha King Nathaniel’S POV “I want him to be your new Beta.” My father told me, introducing Grayson to me. I wondered why my father didn't let me choose on my own but I trusted his judgment. “Hi, I'm Nathaniel,” I said, extending my hands out to him. He took it. “Grayson.” Our gaze locked and I knew at that moment that we would be doing together from now on. I wanted to ask my father where he had seen him because I knew he was not from our pack but I decided against it since I could ask Grayson and he would answer. Except Grayson never made mention of who he was or where he was from. We never went in runs and he never showed his wolf. Or should I say, Lycan? I didn't know how to react or what to even say. Shock was an understatement of what I was feeling at present. I was starting to question everything around me. From my marriage to Maurene, to making Grayson my Beta, to my divorce, and to being the center

    Chapter One Hundred And Fourteen: The Lycan Officials Nathaniel’s POV I drove straight for the Alpha Blaire’s pack. That was where they had told the Lycan officials to meet. I was beyond shocked when Grayson had told me. It made me think that they were trying to win the Lycans over to themselves but then I thought of the siblings I was accommodating at my pack. Did Grayson know about this? I didn't want to think that way. Grayson must have hidden it for a good reason but the fact that he could not trust me with that truth proved how much he thought of me. I had hurt his sister those years when I didn't accept her love for me. It was only right that he hated me. I shook my head, trying to keep a blank level until Grayson called again. “Yes?” I answered through the blue tooth. “The meeting has been canceled.” He said. Why did they— “They are meeting at our pack instead.” That threw me off Balance. I screeched to a halt on the road. What? “How?” That was all I could

    Chapter One Hundred And Thirteen: Investigation Nathaniel'S POV I didn't get the time to talk more about whatever it was Andreas had told me about Maurene as I needed to check on Alex. I needed to see how he was doing. All I was just hoping was that he was still alive because if he truly died, things would go terribly wrong for us. Blaire would be king. I was even starting to doubt for now. I shook my head, trying to maintain focus on the road. I tried not to think about what Andreas had told me. That was impossible. There was no way Maurene could be Sheridan and she was related to Harrison. I knew Harrison had ruled the Lycan Kingdom for as long as I could remember. He was one of the oldest rulers of that species yet I know yet I wondered why he had not searched for his daughter who had long gone missing if truly Maurene was Sheridan. I haven't checked the document Andreas had sent to me because I didn't have the heart to. This was going to change everything about Maurene.
