Liam breaks through the hold of the guards as he dashed over to the lifeless body of Stella. He fell to his knees cradling her head to his chest. "Stella, open your eyes. Please, Stella," He begged with tears but she didn't move as everyone watched in agonizing silence. Liam looked at me with bloodshot eyes causing my heart to drop as my vision tunneled. It was like deja vu hit me because this scene felt so familiar. I'm pregnant. Stella is hurt. Liam wants my blood. He'll kill my child. Liam pulled to his feet charging at me but I was frozen on the spot. My blood has turned cold in my veins. I couldn't move. I couldn't even breathe and my heart had ceased to beat. There was only one thought ringing in my head that he would kill my baby again. "Help her April, feed her your blood," I could faintly hear him as he approached me but before he could reach me Jason stepped in front of me, blocking me from his reach as he stopped. "You bastard!" Liam growled. "You hurt my Stella. L
Leon's POV. "Let go of my hand," Julie demanded, trying to free herself from my hold. I didn't let go until we were near my car in the parking area and no one was there except us. I let go of her and the next thing she was walking away. My jaw ticked. Grabbing her arm I yanked her to me pushing her against my car and caged her between my arms as she glared at me. "What's your problem?" She gritted angrily. "You are my problem," I grumbled. "Leon!""Julie!""Let go of me!" She demanded. "I'm not letting you go back to that so-called party where you're being unintentionally disrespected." I rumbled as her eyes snapped to me and once again I found myself grasping for the thread of sanity so I won't drown in those magical hues. "What do you mean? Just move back," She muttered, avoiding my gaze. "What do I mean? Are you that naive? Logan just accepted in front of the whole crowd that April will be the Luna of his pack. What now? What's left? I believe some of them know that your
"Are you alright?" Jason asked Ethan and he nodded. "I'm fine. I thought I'll pull it off but when the guards came I thought I'm done for," Ethan said. "Tell me what exactly happened?" Jason asked. "It was all fine. Just as we thought there weren't many guards there. I was able to reach her cell but then a troop of guards barged in. They saw me there and as I was dressed in a suit, it didn't take them much time to put the two and two together and the rest you guys know," He said. "Are you hurt?" I asked worried, noticing the reddish mark on his wrist. He looked down and then shook his head. "I'm fine, the guards were angry to find me there so they kinda took their anger out this way I guess," He said. "I don't know why you want me to protect a betrayer, but that was okay, I would do that because I treated you as my Alpha since I was young. I'm sorry I didn't finish it well, but gladly, you'll become my Alpha finally, although I know you don't want to be, I believe you're an amazi
Jason's pov. My heart dropped hearing the doctor. "April," I called her, patting her cheek but she didn't respond. She looked so pale lying there lifelessly. "What do you mean no baby? She's alright. F*cking check on her again," Liam gritted at the doctor who flinched back. My jaw clenched as raw fury crashed through me and I turned around grabbed his collar and roughly pushed him against the wall with such force knocking the breath out of her. Liam granted in pain, "The f*ck! Get away from me. She's alright. She can't lose her baby with just a wound on her hand." Liam tried to reason pushing me away but all I saw was red. She was alright earlier but what Liam did could've led to this. "It could be a f*cking shock, you bastard. You attacked us. She got hurt. The shock would've led her into this situation." I snarled at his face as the doctors and staff tried to pull me off Liam but I didn't move back. I could faintly hear them saying it was a hospital but I was too drowned in fu
Heartbreak. It comes in many forms. Sometimes at the loss of your mother or sometimes breaking up with your lover. Some would cry all night but would wipe the tears the next morning and start fresh but sometimes they would just let the pain dwell deep within the heart. Days passed into months but the pain would still be there. Raw and potent. It's never the pain that lessens but rather it was us the broken souls who got accustomed to such heartache that it won't hurt anymore but then again. The dull throb would always be there, it's just that we build a mechanism in our head to cope with the pain because in the end even if you stop but life keeps going. Earth continues to revolve around the sun and the moon still shines every night. In the end, the suffering person could do nothing but move on but this time he would be carrying a dull throb in his chest and he had to live with it for the rest of his life. The smiling faces and sparkling eyes hold the most sufferings deep within the
"April," My voice came out soft. Gently holding her fragile hand I gave feathery kisses on her hand. Her hand was cold as I held it between my hands and tried to warm it up. Touching her cheek I realized she was freezing. I checked her pulse and heart rate. Everything seemed fine. "Baby," I whispered, cupping her cheek, and got no response. The more I called her and each time when she wouldn't respond I felt my heart constricting in pain. "Wake up, April. Please. For me wake up, it's difficult without you. I need you. I know this misunderstanding was too cruel for us but we have to cope with it together. We are the only ones we have. I'm your support system and you're mine. Right now I'm breaking. It's too much," I breathed in deeply, controlling my emotions. "You told me not to hide my emotions from you. I won't. I'll tell you everything. I was worried about the title of the Alpha. It was all too sudden at Logan's party. One thing I was sure of. I'll do anything to protect you a
April’s pov: My body felt light as a feather but my eyelids felt heavy and my head throbbed in pain. I tried to wake up but no matter how I tried, I just couldn't move or open my eyes. I could feel a faint touch on my hand. A whisper across my skin yet I couldn't bring myself to wake up. The touch slowly moved before I felt it on my cheek. Soft and delicate. The person touching me was so cautious as if afraid that I'll break if he touched me a little more. I felt warm. Who was this person? Why can't I move my body? Why am I not waking up? "Angel," I could faintly hear someone saying, Angel. The voice was so deep and gruff. It felt so familiar that something inside me stirred. It forced me to open my eyes. I tried again but failed. It was like I'm drowned in an ocean, deep and dark. No matter how much I tried I couldn't pull myself up. Something was holding me down. I could see a flicker of light as I tried to cling to it but it was so far away. "April, please wake up, baby. I
"Will you marry me, Angel?" He asked and tears of joy gathered in my eyes. It took me a couple of seconds to wrap my mind around what was happening. I stared at Jason, shocked to the core. I wasn't expecting this. My heart melted seeing that his eyes are misty. At that moment we completely forgot that Ethan, Susan, and Connor were standing near the door. I moved towards him and in one swift move, I jumped on him with my arms wide open. He let out a surprised yelp before holding me tightly before I could fall as he took the impact and I was on top of him both of us on the floor. We stared at each other surprised before bursting out laughing. I grabbed his chin kissing him and there was a surprise gasp. My head snapped to Susan whose eyes were covered by Ethan as she was trying to see. I quickly pulled back from Jason feeling my cheeks heating up and the next thing I found myself straddling him. My eyes widened when he groaned lightly and his features hardened. I felt something
Five years later! "Mwommy, can I go play outside?" Little Ava asked while tugging at April's dress and looking up at her mother with those big blue eyes. "Alright, honey but promise me you won't get your clothes dirty. Uncle Leon and Ethan are about to be here any time," April said while adding chicken gravy to the pan. "Okay mwommy," Ava beamed excitedly before dashing out of there. Jason had installed a number of playful things in the backyard of their house for the kids. They love to play there all the time. Two minutes later a little munchkin Jonathan hobbled over to his mommy. He grabbed her dress tugging at it lightly. "Mowmmy, Jon wants to plway too," The three-year-old Jonathan pleaded with those big blue eyes. April smiled at her baby as she picked him up in her arms. "Sweety, you'll get your clothes dirty. Uncle Ethan is coming with Evan. He's bringing sweets for you," April said while motioning for the maid to take over. "Bwut mowmmy, Ava is plwaying outside," The li
Leon walked into the house with squared shoulders. His chest puffed out as if he owned the place. Antonio was sitting on the sofa as he stood up to meet him. Leon shook his hand before he took the seat opposite him. "Let's not waste time. I've heard from my daughter that you both want to be together," Antonio said. "Yes, you heard right. She's my mate and I want to make her my Luna." Leon said confidently. "Are you forgetting she's my daughter first? She's allowed to do what I order her to do." Antonio gritted angrily but Leon remained calm. He hated how her father talked about her. "She's not only your daughter. She's Julie Antonio who has alpha blood in her veins and is very capable of taking her title as the alpha of this pack. She's my mate no matter what. I won't allow you to wed her off to someone else." Leon said calmly as he inhaled her scent. His eyes snapped to the door and he found her standing behind the wall trying to stay hidden but he knew she was there listeni
Leon inhaled deeply resting his forehead on the steering wheel as he waited patiently. She was taking too long to walk out of the university. It was already past her clock out. His head snapped up when he inhaled her scent. His eyes fell on her beautiful frame as she walked out of the front gate in all her elegance. It was too risky of him to be there knowing that Jason could see him and Ethan has also frequently picked up his mate from the university. He waited for her to get closer and before she could hail a cab. He pulled over and her eyes fell on him. "Come I'll drop you," Leon said but Julie lightly shook her head. "That's not needed." She declined politely and he frowned. She has been ignoring him a lot recently while he wanted things to work between them. "Julie-""It's okay, I'll take the cab. Thank you," She said not looking at him and his jaw ticked. "Get in the car, Julie unless you want me to haul you up on my shoulder and toss you in the back seat. Now don't eve
"Susan," Jason started but she was solely staring at Ethan in disbelief. Susan couldn't believe her ears. So this was Ethan's plan all along. She stomped inside as he called after her but she didn't stop. Susan hurried into her room walking past Blair and April as she got inside her room and locked herself in. Susan stepped into the restroom. Grabbing the basin she stared at her reflection in the mirror. Bitter tears gathered in her eyes. There was a loud knock on the door followed by Ethan's voice. "Susan, let me in." Susan blinked as a tear slid down her cheek. So it was his plan all along to woo her She knew about it from the start. She knew he was trying to woo her because he wanted to sleep with her. But then the moon goddess made them mates. Susan breathed in deeply. She heard their conversation. She heard what Jason said and she also heard what Ethan answered him later. It was obvious Jason knew Ethan couldn't woo her that was why he even offered him that f*cking hea
Susan was beaming to herself when someone came beside her startling the life out of her as she jumped in her place. "Did I scare you?" April asked sheepishly, earning a scowl from Susan. "You sure did. What if I had a cardiac arrest huh-" Susan just started arguing when April let out a loud gasp, jumping on her. "No way," She exaggerated, making Susan frown. "What?" She asked confused as April gaped at her. "You guys marked each other," April exclaimed in wonderment and Susan's cheeks flushed. She quickly pulled the collar up. She had properly hid the mark but April surely had keen eyes. She noticed so quickly. "Did you complete your pharmaceutical assignment?" Susan asked casually. April raised a perfect brow at her. "You can't change the subject, honey. Now are you spilling the beans or do you want me to extract it out of you or Ethan?" April asked seriously, causing Susan's eyes to widen as she grasped April's hand. She closed her locker and dragged April out of there because
Ethan was wide awake as he lay there with her in his arms. Last night was the best night of his life and there was no doubt about that. He never thought that a mate bond could feel so beautiful. That a mate could change his life, his way of thinking.Her words kept raking his head again and again. She had confessed that she loved him but did he deserve her love? He didn't know. She was a precious little woman which made him want to protect her from the whole damn world.Susan stirred in her sleep as she rubbed her cheek on his chest to get comfortable but whined when she couldn't get comfy.Her hand unconsciously raked over his chest before she placed it under her cheek but that wasn't cozy enough for her cause she moved away from him giving her back to him as she cuddled in herself.Ethan frowned before he snaked his arm under her and pulled her back on his chest as he caged her in his steel-like arms. She whined in her sleep and tried to get free but it was impossible.Her eyes slow
He stilled inside her. He could burst right then and there but he controlled the urge, the veins in his neck were popping out at the intense control. "Susan," He rasped gently as her body slowly fell back on the bed and a sob tore through her lips. "It hurts," she whimpered as her nails dug into the flesh of his shoulder. Of course, it was hurting her. She was so tiny and he was well... Susan only ever heard how amazing it felt. Though she was grossed out by such info at that time, now she wanted but nothing prepared her for this pain. Ughhh! "I'm sorry, it was the less painful way," He rasped as he kissed her forehead and then both of her eyes one by one. He kissed her cheeks before his lips caressed hers and he kissed her gently. She was tense as a board. "Relax, Susan." He whispered while giving feathery kisses all over her neck. His gums tingled as canines extended out. His eyes darkened even more as his wolf peeked out. He tried to control this insane urge to mark her and
Her bosoms were right at his face as he inched closer. He licked his lips as his eyes were solely fixed on hers. Susan gulped as he pecked the swell of her right bosom.His tongue darted out as he licked around her nipple in a circle making hot sensations engulf her.His hands were settled on her bottom as he squeezed her rear causing her chest to rub against his lips. His hot breath fanned the valley of her breasts.The way he licked his lips as if he was going to devour a meal, made her heart stutter in her chest.His tongue licked her bud and played with it as she watched him, her breathing sparse.She breathed heavily when his mouth opened wide and his lips wrapped around her bosom. His tongue fondled her bud as he sucked hard causing her back to arch.She tried to free her hands so she could grab his hair but her arms were restrained and she was at his mercy as he devoured her bosoms."Ethan," She gasped when he slightly bit her nipple and then suckled on it. The sensations that
Susan stared at her reflection in the mirror. She was donning a beautiful black dress that clung to her body like a second skin. Her hair was in loose waves as she gazed at herself. She was looking gorgeous. This was the first time she had dressed up sexy. Her lips were painted a seductive shade of red. And the thick coat of mascara looked beautiful in her eyes. A loud honk from outside had her eyes snapping at the clock and it was exactly 8. Susan quickly grabbed her purse and coat, she hurried out locking the door. Ethan's jaw slacked at her perfect ass and when she turned around he was gobsmacked by her beauty. She looked drop-dead stunning. Susan hurried over to him as she took the passenger seat and he was so engrossed in checking her out, he completely forgot that he was supposed to open the door for her. "Close your mouth," She said with a light smirk and he closed his mouth, clearing his throat. "You look stunning. I need a breather please excuse me," With that sa
