Chapter Eighty: The Aftermath

Amanda’S POV

I sat quietly and still inside the car. I looked at Martins from the corner of my eye and the way his veins showed on his hands hinted that he was not just angry but had every thought to punish me tonight.

I couldn't stop the scoff that escaped from me. He cut a glare at me and I looked away. I let his father’s parting words replay in my head again.

I don't like you but you are good for my son. I approve and make sure you don't ruin my reputation. Understood?

I rolled my eyes. I won't be ruining it because the relationship will be ending soon enough.

The car screeched to a halt and I looked around, finding the surroundings unfamiliar.

“Where are we, Martin? This is not the place I would be stopping.” I said, turning to him but the man stepped out of the car. I watched him as he came over to my side and opened the door. Was he planning on dropping me here?

No way would he do that to me!

“Martin!”

“Come out, Amanda!” He

    Chapter Eighty-One: The Full Moon Revelation Nathaniel’S POV One week, three days, and seventeen hours. I have not taken my bath nor have I stepped out of my office. Burying myself deep in the workload before me is the only thing in my head. I have been putting two and two together and trying to figure out who was behind the attack on the Luna Queen. I had already made a mental note to visit the Alpha King but the fact that I have been unable to bring myself to forgive myself was weighing me down. For the past few days, I have been blaming myself for losing Maurene. To the truth, I was the one who sent her out and made her homeless. Even if I had not been aware of the kids, I should not have sent her out under that kind of heavy rain. That night, I was blinded by the rage and all I wanted was that she should leave. I just didn't expect her to leave like that and now I was being punished for it. For years, I looked forward to having my own kids. I was already growing beyond

    Chapter Eighty-Two: Never ever Nathaniel’S POV After reconciling with Grayson, I knew it was high time I faced the real truth before me. My kids. Maurene. Grayson was just a small problem by the side. The real and big part I was scared of admitting was the people I had unknowingly chased out of my life. The regret of what I did that day gnawed at me for years, reminding me that I was lonely and I was the cause of my loneliness. Even when she returned to my life, I still felt lonely. It was with great restraints that I didn't touch her even when I wanted to. I decided that I would not allow anyone to hold me back from meeting my kids, even if it was me- my fear. The fear that they would not accept me. Just like Maurene, out of her anger and hatred for me, she hid them from me. I didn't blame her to some extent. What if the kids don't accept? What if they chose Liam who has been by their side over me? What would I do? I will accept it or keep trying? Honestl

    Chapter Eighty-Three: Resolving Issues Maurene’S POV My hands trembled by my side as I glared daggers at the man who stood before me. His eyes held so much pain that almost reflected mine. The knot in my chest tightened painfully. I had a lot I wanted to yell at him. If only he knew how relieved I had felt when he said he had gone after me that night and was disappointed that he didn't find me. I blamed myself that I should have stayed longer and should not have followed Liam that night. Maybe we could still be together. My chest hurt a lot. “Why don't you stop being selfish? Why don't you forgive yourself, Maurene? The pain, the hurt. They are still quite visible in your eyes and words. Why? I am not one to tell you to let go of the past but please do or else, we may never get to chance to redeem ourselves.” He shook his head, his face morphing with pain. He took a step closer to me. “Maurene. I know... I know I am the least person that should be telling you this but

    Chapter Eighty-Four: Sudden Relapse Nathaniel’S POV I was once again taken back to that day. The day I had lost my father. I had been away for a meeting then and when I returned, it was the news of my father’s death that welcomed me. I felt the emotions rush through me like that time. I could not describe it. They were too much. Too much that they rushed through my veins in a flash and I could not stop them. Then my heart… my chest… my body began to convulse and I could not — My eyes splintered open and the first thing I saw was a pair of blue eyes like Maurene’s. “Daddy?” That voice. That voice that held me bound the moment I heard it. Never in my life have I ever thought that I will get to see someone that looked more like Maurene. She was just the exact resemblance of her mother. I had been way too shocked than the last time I had seen Kai when I saw the three of them. The emotions had been too much for me to handle and Maurene was not helping matters because she co

    Chapter Eighty-Five: Meeting Martins Nathaniel’S POV “Are you going to the runway show for Amanda?” Grayson asked as he placed a file on the table. I knew it was a report from the guards I had placed around Maurene. I nodded, closing the last file I was working on and shut down the laptop. I looked up at him. “How is she?” He knew who I was talking about. “She is fine. The kids are also fine.” He said quietly. “Any sign of Liam since the last time?” I asked, glancing at my wrist watch. I didn't want to be late for the event at all. “Surprisingly, no.” He shrugged. I shook my head. He has not even tried to talk about meeting for the what he did after trying to get into my pack through an dead old man’s name. He messed with the wrong person. “Keep an eye on him and on Leila as well. She has her use and I don't want to miss it.” I told him before exiting the office. Amanda had invited me to the runway show even when she knew I was a busy man. I rarely saw her in t

    Chapter Eighty-Six: Sudden Heat Maurene’S POV I rolled on my stomach, feeling my entire body soaked in sweat. I had a weird dream. Nathaniel and I were… I popped one eye open and I stretched out to turn on the lamp. Staring at the blank ceiling with drowsy eyes, I rolled on my back, and let out a deep sigh. What was happening? I sat myself up, breathing out through my mouth. I scrambled down from the bed, the cold seeped into my feet . Maybe it was the fact that I had closed the windows and there was no room for air. Just as I stood before the window, the moonlight shone brightly into the room as I pulled the curtains apart. I let out an instant groan, shifting back as my skin etched, becoming even more sensitive. My entire dress was wet from sweat and here I was, staying away from the moon. What exactly was happening? I was not feeling sick yet my body reacted sharply. It was not the full moon night either. I went to the bathroom to have a cool bath bu

    Chapter Eighty-Seven: Daddy’s Time Nathaniel’S POV For the past few months, I have been unable to find out who was behind the attack on the Luna Queen. Coupled with the meeting with Leila, I knew my time as the Alpha of this pack was closing and The Alpha King would make do with his promise. Even if I was the Alpha, the fact that I could be removed by the authority of the Royal King still stood which scared me to the core. I let out a tired groan, rubbing my eyes at the files. Nothing seemed to be clicking together. After driving into a block the last time and then finding out that the restaurant belonged to an old man who mysteriously died, I was now caught with finding out who launched the attack on the Luna Queen. It was as if there was no one whereas there was. The person just seemed to be invisible or maybe he was here and I was not looking at him? There was something Alex was not telling me. Maybe he was afraid or he was trying to protect someone. Or he could

    Chapter Eighty-Eight: Visitation Nathaniel’S POV Just like I expected, I stepped into the living room. Maurene was nowhere in sight. She must have told Diana that I was coming and maybe she was trying to avoid me. She didn't need to do that. Not like there is anything else that would join us together except for the kids. “How is… she?” I couldn't help but ask Diana who gave me a look of disapproval. Oh! she definitely doesn't like me. Okay, maybe I deserved that. Anyway, she said nothing and instead, turned around to get the kids. I swallowed hard, having my seat, and ignored the constant beeps on my phone. “Daddy!” They all chorused, walking quickly to me. A grin split on my lips immediately and I knew at that point that I was done for already. These kids… they were my weaknesses and it would be bad if anyone got to know about them before I brought them to the pack. “My sweet princess,” I planted a peck on Kylie’s cheeks before ruffling the boys’ hair. “

    Chapter 121 Chapter One Hundred And Twenty-One: A Union Amanda’S POV I knew Martins was dangerous. I knew he could not be trusted and I decided to get into contract with him. 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

    Chapter 120 Chapter One Hundred And Twenty: The Beginning Of The End Nathaniel’S POV She raised her head to me, her red-rimmed eyes glancing down at my lips as she slowly pulled herself up to me. 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

    Chapter One Hundred And Nineteen: Revenge With Death Maurene’S POV Just like Nathaniel had said, Liam was the person behind everything. He had kidnapped my son… someone he once cared for. 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.
