"WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY THAT BASTARD ALMOST EXECUTED YOU IN FRONT OF OUR KIDS? I SWEAR IF I WAS THERE, HE WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO BREATHE AGAIN THAT MOTHERFUCKER!"

I breathed in and exhaled, partially expecting this reaction from Dante. Normally he was ca, but when he felt disrespected or cheated, well, thank Goodness I wasn't on speaker phone.

I can't possibly begun with the twins asking me what the meaning of mother fucker was.

"ALPHA MY ASS. IMMA KNOCK OUT HIS WEAK ALPHA TEETH IF HE TRIES THAT NONSENSE WITH MY FAMILY AGAIN!"

"Dante… Everything is fine, we are fine. We've called a weird truce. He doesn't even bother us anymore. We hardly even see him."

Tessa abandoned her toys. Her head snapping towards me. "Is that our fake daddy?" She asked in sheer innocence.

"Fake daddy?" Dante repeated, his voice holding a tinge of disbelief. "Is that what they call me now?"

I bent to Tessa's height level, thinking of how to apply damage control.

"Tess, do you want to speak to daddy?"

    IslaThe kids kept talking at once, and I suggested we go to the garden outside. They needed fresh air with the way they were using the one we managed to tell their daddy everything.But they paid me no attention, until Axel repeated what I had said, then they agreed gleefully, racing him to the garden while I waited behind to pack up the essentials they would need.I have seen Tessa excited many times, but never have I seen Tristan that excited since I gave birth to him. They spoke to him like they have known him for years, something that was weird for them to do to strangers. Tessa could offer a smile to a stranger, but Tristan avoided them completely. But seeing them do this, made me wonder if it was the bond between their father and them.Maybe it was stronger since they were all Alpha wolves.Whatever it was, I felt oddly protective. Maybe it was a bad idea giving in to their demands. How would things be when we have to return back home? Would they want to leave their dad especia

    IslaFor the past few days, I have seen more of Axel than I ever imagined I would, and it bothered me for numerous reasons, none I could articulate clearly .Tessa looked completely healed whenever he was around, and Tristan was more outspoken as he communicated with his father on topics I had no idea a boy under ten could understand.I steered clear of him when he was with them, busying myself with my work. I was behind in many aspects, but my close friend and my manager had everything under control.The date for the surgery was approaching fast, which also meant the day of our departure and our wedding, but I couldn't bring myself to be too excited, since the kids were getting too attached to Axel.Sigh. I couldn't even talk to Dante about it. He already was upset that the kids didn't want to talk to him, so hearing that they wouldn't want to come home would be pushing it.Currently as I struggled to think of what to do, Tessa and Tristan were occupied with their daddy.

    IslaOn many occasions I've felt embarrassed in degrees I couldn't explain. Long before I was chased out of the room in nothing but a blanket, I've been embarrassed on many occasions.But this, this moment where the kids decided to ask the simple, innocent yet embarrassing question, it takes the cake.The kids I love so much decided to ask a question that caused me to peel my body off his with an alarming speed, then trip yet again, and land on my butt in the middle of the room, narrowly missing one of the lego toys that could have maimed my butt if i had landed on it.The laughter that ensued after my embarrassing fall echoed from the culprits, my kids and i could see the battle between Axel and himself as he watched me peel myself from the floor, the corner of his mouth refraining from turning up, but his eyes were a different story.“You okay?” he asked in mock sincerity and i shot him a glare, hoping he got the fuck you message i was sending with my eyes.“That was the funniest th

    IslaThings have been, well, more stiff since my last talk with Axel as we prepared for the surgery which was already here, and the guilt I felt for telling him off ate me up from the inside.It gave me sleepless nights, as if he had not done more than worse in the past, and that annoyed me. Why was I, the victim of betrayal and mental abuse, guilty for telling the man who just wanted to know how I felt, off?And if that wasn't worse, the mutual agreement of peace we unconsciously had because of the kids seemed like it was cancelled, as Axel never said more than two words to me.Hey, without more than a stiff nod.Bye, with no nods at all.Even the kids noticed, but they had not said anything about it yet, but as their mother, I knew it was just a matter of time.And Dante, oh Dante.Words couldn't begin your describe how our relationship was. He still managed to call me everyday, but it wasn't the same as before. It felt stiff, unlike the times before he ruined it, and after that, he

    IslaAxel's body felt like coals on my skin and he shivered, a clear sign that he was having a fever, just a day to the surgery.This was really bad.I had to do something.I tried to pull myself from Axel's hold, but he refused to let me go as he gripped onto my waist, his skin brushing mine scrambling my line of thoughts."Axel, you have to let me go. I need to help you with your fever." I tried to pry his grip off me, but it was impossible to pry."Axel I will be back,I just need to get you a wet blanket."He let out a breath of hair on my visible shoulder and I shuddered."Okay." He breathed out letting go of my shoulder.The clinic was miles away from here, and I would not be able to take Axel there myself, so I had to make sure I helped him until morning when he could go to the clinic.I got up on my feet, doing the first things first when someone had a fever.I quickly retrieved a cold, damp washcloth from the bathroom, and gently placed it on Axel's forehead.

It was counterproductive, but the healer promised it was going to show during the surgery.The healers also advised that it would be better to have the surgery tonight. I vehemently refused b

I could barely think of anything apart from ripping whoever took my daughter apart.My world came crashing down when I saw the nanny who was supposed to be watching her almost dead due to consumption of too many sleeping pills.

He was drunk.“Guards!” Axel called out. “Take this man out of my palace.”“Axel, he’s in a poor state. I don’t think -"“- He needs to go!” Axel interrupted in a firm voice and then turned to face his guards. “Seize him.”They bowed their head before turning to apprehend Dante forcefully, and then they dragged him out of the palace.“I’m going to be back, and I’m not going to stop until I prove to you that I’m worthy of your forgiveness.”“This is madness!” Axel said once Dante had left our sight, “Pure madness.”“If you say so!” I said calmly.“It seems his little act is beginning to soften you!” He arched a brow.“It’s not. I want him to be as far away from me as possible. But it’s dark, and he’s in a vulnerable state. We can’t just leave him out there like that.”“Whe

When I opened it, my anger resurfaced.“Dante! I made it very clear that you should leave.”“I know you did, but then I realized that you haven’t rested after everything that happened. That’s why you acted that way,” he said, looking me straight in the eyes. “We are adults, Isla, and matters like this can be handled with any fuss, and I got you this.”I didn’t realize that his hand had tucked behind his back until I saw him str

Her features were different.“Throw her into the woods,” Axel instructed his guards, “And make sure you don’t leave until she’s eaten by some animal.”The guards nodded, carrying Stephanie away, and then Axel turned to face me. He moved closer, wrapping me into an embrace.“I’m so glad that you’re safe,” He murmured before placing a kiss on my head.It was the sweetest thing I had seen Axel do. Maybe the fact that he had almost lost me made him realize a lot of things.“How did you even find me?”“I used the mate haunt. I discovered you were missing after I sent Ray to inform you about the kids.”“The kids? What happened to the kids?”“Stephanie had tried to drown them,” he deadpanned.My face fell. “W

    AXEL'S POVI didn’t want Isla to find out that I was going in search of the children. I told her I had important things to do, and she seemed to have bought it because she didn’t question me.I was glad I didn’t tell her they were missing, as I could only imagine how she would have felt seeing her daughter in that state.As I pulled myself out of my thoughts, my eyes landed on my daughter’s body, which appeared so lifeless, and my heart ached so badly.I wrapped her in my hands, heading to the nearest hospital with my men and Tristian by my side.“Drive faster!” I shouted at the driver, and my hands, which were wrapped around my daughter, were quivering.He didn’t respond, but he increased the car's speed, and I kept staring at my daughter, pushing her hair backward.“You’re going to be fine!” I said as I continued to caress her hair. “Hang in there for me.”“Is she going to be okay, Daddy?” Tristan’s voice met my ears. He sounded afraid.“She’s going to be alright. You don’t have to

He didn’t expect it and knew he couldn’t stop it.Stephanie grabbed him by the hair, and her fingers, or rather claws in Tristian’s description, dug into his skull. He felt pain radiate through his body at that point and yelled above his lungs.He wasn’t the only one yelling. His sister was also shouting and fussing, trying her best to free herself from Stephanie’s clutches.Tristian didn’t have it in him to kick, so he just kept yelling, increasing his tone every second, and he hoped someone would come to save them - probably his dad, mom, or some guard.In his six-year-old mind, he was hoping for a miracle.

I couldn’t wait to wipe that smile off her face and watch her beg for mercy and the kids. How could I forget how I would make those little angels suffer?Isla and Axel would never know what hit them.

I didn’t expect him to make that move, but I was glad he did, and the minute my eyes landed on my room door, a smile caressed my lips.I pulled it open quickly, walking in the direction of my wardrobe right away. I didn’t have any idea of what I was going to wear, and as I pulled open the wardrobe, I realized deciding what to wear would be a very difficult task.I took a deep breath before digging into the pile of clothes in my wardrobe, and I started with a black dress with a cute slit, but it didn’t look appealing when I tried it on, so I decided to try on another cloth with a similar design but a different color.When I stood in front of the mirror, I wasn’t very pleased with my appearance, so I removed the gown and sat on the bed.I hated this.I wondered why I was dressing up for Axel.

That’s why they are mad at me and why they’re not talking to me and rejecting my food. And things feel so weird.”“I think you’re overthinking it.” My voice sounded a bit edgy.“I’m not, Axel. I could feel that distance between us, and Stephanie also communicated their feelings to me.”“I understand,” I said, feeling her pain. “But you don’t need to let that bother you. I’m sure they would come around.”“How can I not? My own children hate me,” she continued speaking. “A mother is meant to be a role model to her kids, but I’m nothing of that much.”“You’re Isla. You have always been a role model to your kids.”“Well, I don’t think they feel so, and you’re only saying these words to make me feel better.” She sighed sadly, a sign I wasn’t doing an excellent job of helping her feel better.I wasn’t really good at coax
