Camilla POV,I sat down on the couch, my mind racing with the officer's words. “What could he have meant?” I asked myself, curiosity mingling with anxiety.“The cops want me at the station. They need me for something, but I have no idea what,” I said to Britney, who had noticed my worried expression.“Is that why you’re so stressed? You haven’t done anything wrong. You worry too much about everything and everyone. You need some rest. Don’t let this bother you, dear sis,” she said, trying to pacify me and lift my spirits. Despite her comforting words, a shadow of worry still loomed over me. Lawrence also weighed heavily on my mind.What could his condition be now? The questions kept swirling, and my impatience grew.“I should head out soon,” I told Britney as I began preparing to leave for the police station.Meanwhile, in the council chambers, the elders had convened an emergency meeting to address the absence of their alpha from the palace.“We are making progress, my lord,” the cap
Lawrence’s POV "Is there something the alpha is keeping from us, the elders of the great council of our pack?" Elder Albert's voice cut through the silence, his eyes narrowing as he observed my confusion and the desperate search for an excuse on my face.I stood silently for a moment, unable to find the words. Their piercing gazes bore into me as I remained motionless and Ideas seemed to be far away from my mind."You paint such a despairing portrait of my pain," I managed to say, hoping to divert their attention and thought from the question at hand."We have no intention of making you look bad. We are only concerned about the welfare of our alpha," Elder Clement added, his tone more measured."Well, you need not worry yourselves much. As you can see, I am fine now," I replied, though I was trying every effort to hide my attachment—or rather, involvement—with what had transpired at the mansion.Bella stood there with them in the office, her presence a constant reminder that I wasn't
Camilla's POV "The drums of war echo louder than anticipated," Elder Clement addressed the council, his voice weighted with concern. "Our neighbors grow increasingly impatient by the day, they seemed ready and prepared for war."What's prompting this concern?" Lawrence pressed, his brow furrowing as he leaned forward."Our scouts report heightened military preparations across the border by our neighbors who are now considered to be rivals," Elder Clement replied gravely."Our spies have witnessed fervent displays of readiness of our rivals during their reconnaissance missions.Our rivals are poised for conflict.""And our own forces? How prepared is our army, Lawrence inquired, his voice tense with apprehension."Our army stands ready," declared the captain who was asked earlier to join them at the meeting, exuding unwavering confidence.“That's a good development,” Voiced Lawrence. “To elude the storm you could either sail into it or around it, but never await its coming, now we
Lawrence POV“You need to discuss this with Lawrence, he's the father of my child and he has no choice but to make me his Luna”, Bella exclaimed to Elder Albert in his home when she went to visit him to discuss his plight with him.“The council of elders is aware of this and we are trying to also convince him to get reunited with you but he has been adamant on this.We are also aware that this is because of the return of that woman Camilla so we are planning on what to do” elder Albert explained to Bella.“He should have nothing to do with Camilla, I'm the mother of his heir, Bella stated.“It's not what you think Bella, there is more to his relationship with Bella than just love, He has children with Camilla”, elder Albert informed Bella, Bella was dumbfounded, the revelation that Albert just made to her was too heavy for her to bear, she became mute and looked at Albert in confusion,“Children!!” she exclaimed, shock evident in her tone. “Yes Bella, Camilla has twins for Lawrence,”
Lawrence's POV “The mouthpiece of the moon goddess has already made things clear and easy for us Albert, We can't go against the doctrine, you of all people should be aware of all of this” an elder in our midst countered Elder Albert,But we can't ignore the bad luck that Camilla poses to bring to us if she eventually is made the Luna, I only have the best interest of our pack at heart.“Silence”, I shouted at the top of my voice, You all already know that there is no possibility way that I'm going to be reunited back with Bella. “My heart belongs to Camilla and the moon goddess has made things easier for me, it is not longer a topic for debate, Camilla would be the Luna of our pack the marriage rites would be done soon, I declared” to the hearing of everyone in the room, without waiting to hear any further things that they might have to say a stoop up and left. Getting to my living room I stopped immediately as Bella's gaze notified me that she had long been awaiting my presenc
Lawrence POV“My son, everything will be fine soon. You'll be back on your feet again, I promise you,” I said to George as Camilla and I entered his ward.Camilla looked at us both and smiled. It was the first time she had seen us together."It's nice to see you two together," she said, her smile widening. "I dream of moments like this every night," I told her, sitting on George's bed and gently massaging his forehead. "I can't wait for all of us to be back home.""Soon, you'll bear the emblem of the alpha on your forehead. It's just a matter of time, my son. The rites to the birth of an alpha will soon be performed on you."My attempts to lift their spirits continued, trying to pull Camilla and George out of their grief.“We need to act quickly, Lawrence,” Camilla muttered as she approached us from a distance.“Camilla, we've been given the chance to marry. There's no more opposition to our union. The mouthpiece of the moon goddess told me we need a Luna to give us the edge to trium
Lawrence's POV,My worries came to a halt as two stern-faced cops escorted Camilla to see Raymond. The presence of law enforcement assured me of her safety; after all, this was a police station. She would surely be safe.But now, a new concern gnawed at me. What did Raymond need to disclose to Camilla? What was so pressing that he called upon the woman who had distanced herself from him, the very one who had a hand in his imprisonment? “Maybe he wants to apologize for everything he did,” I mused. Or perhaps he intended to beg her for help, to plead for his release. I sat in Officer Trey’s office, my mind spinning with these thoughts, trying to decipher Raymond's mysterious summons.“I think I need to speak to Officer Trey about this,” I decided, hoping he might shed some light on the situation.“I don't know what he has to disclose to her,” Trey confessed when I questioned him. “He’s refused to say anything to any of us until he sees Camilla. We’re hoping she’ll share everything he s
Lawrence POV Camilla took quite some time there. My curiosity spiked with every passing minute. I wasn't sure if their discussion was important, but I sat in the office, trying to remain patient.When Camilla finally walked in, her face looked troubled and worried. She glanced at me from the corner of her eyes, a look that made me suspicious that something was wrong. This time, though, I had the unsettling feeling that I was the one in trouble."Thank you, Officer, for your time," she said to Trey, shaking his hand as she approached the desk where Trey and I sat opposite each other."Do you mind giving us a glimpse of what he said?" Trey asked, his inquisitive nature evident in his expression."It's just a personal issue we needed to resolve before his departure," Camilla replied, her little smile attempting to lend authenticity to her statement."Alright then, I'd rather not meddle in your personal affairs before you both turn me into a counselor," Trey jokes, lightening the atmosph
