TITAN'S POVI noticed that all has not been so well with Alana recently but I decided not to say a word about it since she did not tell me personally.It was painful that she could not share how she was feeling with me but I tried to understand that she did not know how to.Maybe she was still hurting from the way she used to feel in the past when she voiced out and that was why she did not say anything.And it could just be that she was trying to be strong and did not want to disturb me from my pack duties as the Alpha.Recently I have been so busy but not too busy for her since she was equally busy as well so we did not talk much.I had also sent someone to check up on her and update me on how she was feeling and they said she was not eating well.Maybe the whole matter of the war was not settling down with her so well yet or maybe she did not just feel like I had first thought.But after a few days and I still got the same reaction from her, I knew then that something was wrong wit
NIXIE'S POVI thought I knew them from somewhere even though I couldn't place my hand on it but I went straight into treating the patient so I would not get the hefty man very angry with me.He already glared at me and barked "get her treated now, would you, doctor?" And the tone had both respect and disrespect in it.I did not know who they were but I was sure that they were used to this hospital and had their own doctors.It was surprising that they would even let me treat the beautiful woman but I went ahead and did what I was told without minding anyone and anything.I knew it would be bad for me to let the men intimidate me so I was trying my best to look bold and do my job.When we got to the front of the ward, I told them to wait outside even though they insisted that they were going to go in with her.I knew they were pushing me and I would not take it so easy with them by calling the security guards who were hefty like they were on them.But I did not want to create a scene a
NIXIE'S POV I cleared my throat as I caught him staring at me and gave him the letter to find out the true state of his wife.His lips were slowly parted away as he saw what looked like a shock to him.I for one was surprised that he was looking so shocked like she was a virgin girl who had gotten pregnant.Soon, I finally gathered the courage to ask if he was her husband and he said yes but my reaction was not it at all.I rolled my eyes and I hoped he did not catch a glimpse of that else I was gone because that would raise suspicions for him.He would know that there was something I was thinking about them which was out of place and I had to stop.I decided that I was just going to smile instead of rolling my eyes like the way I did the first time he told me so sweetly that they were married.Her name was Alana, and I did not think she came from around this side because the name was not so common.I had heard someone else bear that name, two persons actually and they were not from
TITAN'S POVWhen the young doctor had told me that Alana was pregnant, I felt like jumping around across the room like a baby to show how happy I was.My joy knew no bounds and I started to wonder why I had not thought about the possibility of her being pregnant.It had already been months since she got her so she had every chance to be pregnant with my child but that never occurred to me.Not for once did I think that she was going to be carrying my baby very soon but now I felt like that happiest man alive.Maybe the reason why I had not noticed anything at all was because I had not been around any pregnant women before now.I don't think I have even seen one, because they hardly ever come out when they are pregnant.This is to avoid stress of any kind since female wolves tend to be very sensitive and could lose their baby due to any pain.Not only could they lose their babies, it was also very easy for them to lose their lives when they were pregnant except the very strong ones.Th
TITAN'S POVI wanted to be sure that she was alright because I was sure that I had caught a glimpse of evil inside of her.Or maybe I was just exaggerating my thoughts since I did not know what was in fact wrong with her.Since it was war time, there could be many spies flocking around without our knowledge and they could cause harm.This was why we all needed to be alert, being careful of what we eat or drink or even who we stay around and talk to.It was bad enough that we could not find one of our spies and the best one in fact who would tell us what we are going up against.Now that we did not know what they were planning, it was best for them not to know what we were planning too at all.I had checked around for new faces but there had been none and I ensured that those around me were those I have trusted for over a long time.But it was not enough as I still had to run background checks on them to be sure that they did not have any alliance with the pack we were going up against
ALANA'S POVI opened my eyes as slowly as I could and I was not so shocked to find myself where I was.At first I could hardly remember how I got there but then I remembered that I had fainted and Titan rushed me out to save me.My sweet mate, I could tell the way he was so agitated just by feeling me unconscious in his arms and I could not help but love him the most.Titan had always been so good to me and absolutely irreplaceable that I began to worry again if I had made him too afraid.Not only was he going to feel so worried about me, but he would be thinking about so many things now.What if I was actually poisoned as I had thought I was, just how would he react to the news?By now I am sure he would be scattering the entire pack trying to find out who was responsible for it and kill them immediately.If he played around anything, it would not be me because I knew how much he treasured me and I would never take that for granted.That was why I never disturbed him by telling him t
ALANA'S POVWhat puzzled me a lot was the fact that even the Gamma and Beta were all smiling and happy for no reason at all.Maybe there was a reason but I could not place my hands on it at all and I could not ask them so this got me irritated.When I saw them from the end of the room and I saw them laughing walking towards me, I got the chance to see the rest of the room.I had not taken note of my surroundings so I only just got the chance to do that and l wondered how Titan got this space for me.The hospital room was so big and spacious that it looked like it was a theater room filled with over fifty doctors and still had space in it. I loved it.Maybe it was the fact that it was a private room that made it a unique one with no disturbance and privacy with the doctor.It was not as though I hated people but it was safer to be this way and also very relaxing as it felt like home to me.Also, I loved the way the room smelled like, it was as though it was customized to my own taste a
ALANA'S POV"You are pregnant, darling. You are going to have my baby, our baby" he said and the words made my heart skip a beat.Pregnant? I was pregnant? Wow! Just wow, I did not know how to take the news I had just heard.Maybe he was only trying to pull my legs because there is absolutely no way I would be pregnant.It was not as if I was not fertile or anything else like that but I did not expect it at all.All this time, I had almost killed myself for the inability of becoming pregnant even though it was Lucian's fault I did not get pregnant.He never touched me or came inside of me so there was no way I could get pregnant but Titan did.Titan ensured that he came inside of me every single time that we made love to each other and not for once had I had faith in it.Although it was already a few months since we have been together, I did not expect it to be so quick since I did not know how it worked.I was expecting that it would be that day when we put our minds to it that it wo
Titans POVI stared at the open field in front of me. Vultures screeched above me and some poured down to the field to devour the deer carcass that laid there.Kargo and Jacob stood by my right side, staring at me and speaking in whispers. I did not mind. They could say whatever they wanted. My mind was pretty occupied at the moment.We had moved from the valley of death to the open field a little bit far off north from our pack compound. Jacob and Kargo had pleaded for me to go to the pack compound with them but I refused it. I decided it best to sit here in the pouring rain and think everything that was happening through.What the shaman had said to us still stuck in my head, unable to leave. No matter how hard I had tried to wipe it off my mind, it still stayed. I wanted so much to not believe what he had said but I didn't find a reason not to no matter how hard I tried.I had wanted to ask him who the wolf prints that we had seen belonged to but he disappeared just as fast as he h
Lucian's POVWe marched into the pack compound, waving at the people who had gathered at the gate. The elders too had gathered and they bowed down as I passed by, having the knowing look in their eyes. I knew they were mad at me for my behavior recently. Now that I didn't have any reason to go after Alana again, I made a mental note to speak with the elders later and apologize to them for my behavior. But first, I had to meet with Diana."Where's Diana?" I asked one of the guards that was standing beside my horse. I immediately recognized who I was talking to and rephrased my question. "Where is your Luna?""I do not know, Alpha, Lucian," the guard responded as he bowed down slightly. I tapped his shoulders and gave him the reins of my horse before walking away to look for Diana. I walked over to the infirmary to search for her, thinking that's where she would be since Flora was taking care of her and the baby but I didn't find her there. The whole place was empty. It was then that I
Diana's POVI sat on my bed as hot tears poured from my eyes. Lucian's actions now we're beginning to hurt more than before. I didn't know why he couldn't acknowledge the fact that my daughter and I were more than enough for him. Whenever I asked him why he could not do that, he would always denied it and tell me that he did know that I and his daughter were enough for him. But then if I asked him why he was still going after Alana, he would keep mute.His behavior was beginning to sicken and annoy but it was also beginning to worry me. I didn't know what would happen if he wins Titan in the fight and brings Alana home. If she does get pregnant, Lucian would begin to prioritize her over I and his daughter. She might even give birth to a son which would make matters worse."Arrrrgh," I mumbled as I pulled at my hair. Thinking about everything was draining my energy but I still had not come to any conclusion that would be of help to me. I knew if Alana came back to the pack, she would d
Lucians POV"We went after her but we didn't see her," Titan replied me. "All that we saw were wolf paw prints where she had landed.""I do not fucking believe you, Titan," I said with a growl. I could not believe Titans word. There was no way he did not have Alana with him."I give you my word, Lucian, I am notlyinge," Titan said with a frown. "I am most definitely not with Alana." As Titan said those words, I felt a cold rush over my body. If Alana was not with Titan, where then was she? Had she gone missing? Was she killed? And the wolves paw prints that Titan had seen where she had landed, did that mean that a rival pack had taken her? Or had she been killed by wild wolves? There was no way she could have been killed by wolves as she was a Luna and was powerful enough to bring any wolf to their knees. And if she had been captured by other packs, either I or Titan would have been alerted. If she was not killed and was not taken hostage by other packs, where then was she? As if r
Titans POVI walked into the weapons room and wents straight to the inner room. I picked my battle armor that I had hung on the wall and put it on. I then took Alana's cloth piece and tied it around my sword handle. With a loud sigh, I sheathed my sword and marched outside.Jacob and the twenty warriors were already on their horses and standing by the compound gate, waiting for me. As I walked towards them, I turned to my side and saw Clara and Charlotte standing and watching me as I walked by. I could see the pain in their eyes as they put their gaze on me."What conclusion did you come to after meeting them?" I asked Jacob as I walked up to him."Meeting who?" he asked, handing the reins of my horse to me."Clara and Charlotte," I replied, grabbing the reins. I put my legs on the saddle and pulled myself until the horse with a groan."They blamed themselves for what Nixie did," he said with a croak. "I told them not to. Nixie is a smart grown woman so she knows and understands the c
Alana's POVI stepped out of Johnson's car with my son in my arms and stared at the huge mansion in front of me. The building was so huge and I was confused as to why a man would live in it alone.As if reading my thoughts, Johnson said, "I, my wife, my daughter and my two sons used to live here until they died in an accident.""I'm so sorry," I said as I noticed his sad face.He shrugged and said, "that was four years ago so I'm over it. Still hurts but it's best one takes their mind off somethings because continuously thinking about it can cause more damage than the first pain." As he spoke, I could hear the pain in his voice. He immediately suppressed it and wore a huge smile on his face. "They asked for me to sell the house after they died but I could not," he continued as he closed his car door and locked it with his key. "Couldn't let go of it so I refused to. Now I live in a house with five rooms all alone. Well, at least today will be different," Johnson said, giving me a wa
Lucian's POVI had no trust in Titan and I knew that he would be coming with his army. That was why I decided to come with mine.I walked into my weapons room and began to select my weapons that I would use for the war. I picked up a sword and spear before heading into the armor room.I picked up my armor and stared at the scratches that were on it. I remembered the battle of yesterday and how close I had missed a spear that had been thrown to me. The spear had just missed my side by a hairs breadth but had scratched my armor, giving it a mean mark.I ran my hand over the engraved mark and sighed. I was going to battle again in just under twelve hours. I sighed and placed the worn out armor back on the wall.I then walked over to another that laid on the table and picked it up. It had my packs insignia engraved on it's chest plate and had claw marking by the side.I wore the armor, fully dressed and grabbed my weapons from the table where I had kept them. I then walked over to my helm
Titans POVI sighed as I watched the crow fly away, my letter tied to its feet. I have heard Kargos advice to me but I took the other. He had explained to me why I should let Alana go but I knew not to do that. There was no way I could let Lucian have her after all the evil that he had done to her. There just was no way.His other idea of proposing an Alpha to Alpha battle was good and I decided to go with it. If I was to win, I would have Alana to myself and Lucian would not have any reason to interfere in either I or her affair again. I sighed and stood in front of my room door. The cold wind blew against my face and from the dark clouds that were beginning to gather, I knew that a heavy storm was coming. I looked up at the sky, waiting for Lucian's reply. I knew that there was no way Lucian would deny my request as his pride was too high for that."Has he replied your request?" Jacob asked as he walked up to me. I looked to my side and saw him walking towards me with a small dagg
Alana's POVI woke up to the sound of a beeping monitor. I opened my eyes slowly and looked to my side. I saw a long tube running from a bag hung up on, just like before, a pole was passing the liquid from the bag down into my wrist. I tried to remove it again but my bandaged hand could not do anything.Suddenly, I heard a slight noise.I turned to my side and saw a small stroller standing beside my bed. The stroller shook and a small crying was coming from within. I raised my head slowly and looked inside. A small baby laid within, tossing and turning as it cried.The baby suddenly stopped crying, as if noticing my presence and began to coo happily. I stared at the baby and I didn't know why I felt so inclined towards the baby. I raised my injured hand and touched the side of the baby cheeks. Feeling their skin against mine gave me some kind of peace that I had never felt."You look so beautiful," I said with a smile as I rubbed the baby's cheeks. The baby cooed happily and gave me
