Noreen’s point of view;“Why are you suppressing your wolf?”I whipped my head up immediately to glance at him. How had he known? Was it that obvious!Being a sigma wolf was more of a curse than anything for me. My kind weee rare and I almost believed That I was the only one left.We gave off a kind of scent that sends other male wolves rushing to me and potentially putting me in danger.We were regarded as a forbidden specie of wolves and when I had been told earlier on that I was a sigma, I learnt to suppress my wolf, wanting no troubles and vowing to live as an Omega.“What…what are you talking about? I’m not…I’m an omega.”I avoided his eyes immediately and luckily for me, he said nothing.“I’ll go get a doctor,” he said and made to leave and I shook my head. I was finally getting a good view of him and damn! He was fine.His jawline made him look extremely sexy and I smiled at him, a smile which seemed to scare him judging by the expression on his face.“Don’t go,” I couldn’t be
Noreen’s point of view;I blinked rapidly to be sure that I had heard right. “What?”“What do you mean?”“Exactly what I just said. I don’t need your help at all.”I smiled nervously, perhaps he thought that what he had done was unforgivable and didn’t want me to forgive him, but why would I do that when I understood him perfectly, when he was my mate and when I had already fallen in love with him.He stood up and walked to the window, his back to me as he spoke.“Tomorrow, when you’re a bit better and it’s safe to travel, I’ll send you back to your pack.”I shook my head rapidly. Why would he want to send me back? Did he want to see my parents first?“I’m an orphan, we don’t need..”“I didn’t ask you that and I know very well everything about you, Miss Cooper.”His tone sounded different, harsh and I wondered if something had happened or I had said something wrong.“Why do you want to send me back? My place is here,” I stood up and walked towards him, no longer scared as I touched hi
Alpha Harold’s PoV;I was going through some paperworks that needed to be signed urgently for the pack’s annual moon feast coming up when the door opened and Avery stepped in.I was surprised to see her and exchanged glances with Norman who shrugged and made his way out of the room, mouthing to me that he was going to be back.Wasn’t she scared?It broke my heart that I had to attack her that way, but it was for her own good, I wasn’t going to bring her that happiness she so desired, I had too many enemies!Just a day of her being at the pack and she had already been attacked, I wouldn’t be able to live with myself if something more happens to her.The voice that was speaking dudbt sound like mine as I called her names and told her why I was going to reject her.Watching her leave broke my heart and I wished I could take them back.“Alpha!”I had been lost in my thought that I didn’t notice Norman come back to the room and he had a look of confusion on his face.“What is it?”“I just
Avery’s Pov;I held the glass to my lips, letting the rich aroma soothe me.I had everything I wanted now and there was nothing stopping me from becoming the Luna.“Avery!” Candace sauntered into the room and I sighed.She had another one of her ‘hot gossips again.”“What is it, Candace?” I set the now empty glass on the table and turned towards her as she plopped onto the sofa in front of me.“You won’t believe it! I tell you, even I didn’t believe what I heard.”I furrowed my brows, she had my attention now.“What happened?” I questioned again.“I was just walking past the room she was given when I heard her voice, it seemed like she was talking to someone and it was..it sounded pretty serious, so I stayed back to listen.”I nodded, urging her to continue, realizing that she was talking about Noreen. Had the bitch done something else again?“She was talking to Alpha Harold, telling him how much she loves him and how she wouldn’t give up…”I stood up immediately. “That bitch dares to
Avery’s Pov;That night, I couldn’t sleep, I kept thinking about what had happened at dinner. The girl was growing bolder by the day abd just as Candace had said, I feared that she was going to become a formidable foe.Shadow had promised to get back to me the following morning with informations about her.I grabbed a hooded robe from my wardrobe and headed to the hidden door that I had found out, sure enough, there was no guard stationed there.I walked out and headed to the destination I knew by heart.“What happened? I didn’t get a feedback!”“Relax, my queen, everything is in place!”“Don’t tell me to relax! We have to get the pack by all means! Starting with Me becoming Luna! I don’t care if I have to screw every man in Blackburn!”“Lontor was caught today, he went on his own and well…”“Lontor is dead!” I exclaimed with a heavy sigh. “I had to kill him to protect our secret. Something you all have been ruining!”“And you!” I turned to him. “You couldn’t kidnap a little girl! Yo
Noreen’s pov;The knock on the door roused me from my sleep and I spranged up immediately, my eyes darting around before I realized where I was.Something with Avery didn’t sit right, I couldn’t her and believed that there was a hidden motive behind her actions, but I wasn’t sure yet.“Come in,” I called as the person knocked again.The door opened and the Alpha’s Gamma walked into the room.“It’s time to leave, my lady,” he said and I could see that he was avoiding my eyes.I shook my head. “Please, I really don’t want to leave. I just need to have a word with the Alpha.”“It’s for the best,” he said and I shook my head. Tears was already streaming down my face.“Please, I can’t go like this. I really..” then I wiped the tears off my face with my palm. “Let me just see him at least,” I grabbed his hands. “Please do that for me, please, just a few minutes.”He looked as though he was torn before he began to speak. “Fine! Just five minutes. Come!”I followed him and he led me towards t
Noreen's PovI walked out of the little shelter i had slept the night before, dressed neatly and ready to try my luck again in getting the Alpha’s heart. He would regret the way he treated me…“Good morning Noreen!!” Candace said as she threw a bunch of clothes at me. They looked like they had been intentionally dunked in mud.“Get them ready and sparkling by midday!“Morning” I replied back with a forced smile on my face.There was no way I’d be done with those clothes before midday!“Noreen!” I spun around to see that it was another maid that was calling me. “Yes?” I didn’t know her name but one thing I realized was that for some reasons, they seemed to hate me a lot.“Lady Avery wants you to clean the Alpha’s room,” she glanced at Mr distastefully as she spoke before turning around to leave.I approached Alpha Harold's room, as I walked throughthe pack's center, I could feel several pairs of eyes on me.“May I come in?” I asked diligently upon reaching the door…All I got was a fa
Harold's PovI woke up to find another head other than mine resting on my chest, as my eyes opened, I caught sight of a medicinal rag the person held..I slowly raised the person head, without knowing who it was… then I saw that it was Noreen…Sigh!!This girl wouldn't just give up? I thought, despite how badly she had been treated.She had no idea that I was trying to protect her! My fate was a cruel one, I couldn’t be with the woman I loved for fear of hurting her. I chuckled darkly. It was indeed a harsh fate.Looking at the rag on her hands and how she sat, it seemed like she was the one who cleaned my body all afternoon..It was getting late and I could see the sky turning dark little by little.I carried her by her waist and placed her on the bed!!“Kirito!!” I called outHe immediately appeared behind me waiting for my instructions.“Don't allow anyone to enter my room!!” I ordered.. I didn't know if it seemed obvious that I cared for her… I admired her face as she slept, feel
Noreen’s pov;As soon as I got out of the house, I almost sprinted to the mansion as I walked quickly. It was weird as there was not one single soul in sight, but I was going to go in,I had to. Ian had let me go on the condition that I report everything to him that has been happening at the mansion. I knew instantly that something had happened.From the edge of the trees, I peered at the mansion. First of all, it was surrounded by a ring of guards, which was weird because there weren’t this many guards, but I quickly realized that it was probably the witch’s doing.The huge familiar building in front of me brought back memories. Although it looked nice,it had unpleasant memories for me. It was the beginning of all my troubles. I strode purposefully towards the gate, my heart beating wildly in my chest as I knew what would happen as soon as I got there.“It’s the traitor! Look!” I hadn’t even reached the gate when one of the guards yelled and I swallowed hard as the others turned an
Alpha Harold’s pov;I giggled as she planted a kiss on my left cheek. She was my world,my universe. And it wasn’t because she was the only person I had seen in a long time or the fact that she told me that she was carrying my child. My first born child.I hoped it would be a boy, as good looking as me. Although a girl wouldn’t be bad either,and I didn’t care.She had told me stories,lots of stories about my braveness. I couldn’t wait to get better and hold her. I just wanted to be with her everytime,to hold her, to kiss her and to feel her warm body pressed up against mine.“See you later my love,” she said as she turned the door knob. My chest hurt as I watched her retreating figure.I don’t remember anything on my own,but from what she had told me. My name was Harold and I was the Alpha of Blackburn pack and she was my wife. I couldn’t go outside because I was plagued with some kind of disease that could kill me. She had told me everything I needed to know, still I felt like I was m
Noreen’s pov;Two weeks later;“Are you sure about this?” He questioned for the 100th time and I rolled my eyes.I had told the Queen of my plan and she seemed to have thought about it for a while before agreeing. Norman on the other hand, wasn’t so much as keen on it. He kept stating how dangerous it was and that it was better for me to stay back here and let them help me find my son.“I’ve never been more sure about anything. She lied and took advantage of me, i just want to get my son back and this is the surest way.”The Queen nodded,giving me a knowing look. We had gone through the plan severally to access the risk and to see if there was a way for her to doubt me. So far,we both agreed that it was a good plan.I had told her of how she had taken me to see Baby Harold briefly and how I had betrayed them and was assured of really finding him if I keep being on her side.I glanced at them briefly before stepping out to go into the waiting car. Norman had an unmistakable look of lo
Noreen’s pov;The room was white and pristine and unfamiliar, I searched in my memory of I had been here, but I couldn’t t remember, yet, there was something calling me and this place.“Hello,” I called out a my eyes darted around for some kind of clue.It was then that I saw the door and for some reasons, I believed that I had to open the door and I did just that, although I knocked a little as though to seek permission.That was when I saw it, the small light blue Cradle.I ran towards it and sure enough, there was my baby! He looked just as I had remembered with his littke hands which were curled into a small fist.This one right here was a fighter, he was just like his father!His tiny fingers reached out, and he whispered, “Momma…”A sob broke free from my chest as I knelt, reaching toward him. I was so close, just a few steps from holding him in my arms. But as I reached out, his image started to flicker. Shadows crept in, twisting around usSuddenly, the room began to blur and
Noreen’s pov;"I found out who your old man is," she smiled softly as she glanced at me.I furrowed my brows, having no idea what she was driving at."You have even more powers than you think of," she continued and I rolled my eyes.I had nothing anymore. I was just someone trapped in a body I absolutely hate, without a wolf and having to bear the pain of seeing my mate with someone else.I would be fortunate if I lasted long with all the pain I had been feeling in this body."The Lycan’s daughter,"My breath hitched in my throat as my eyes widened. She knew. She had somehow found out."What?" Candace and I glanced at her."I'm not—I'm not a cooper. I'm—I could be the only daughter of the past Lycan alive," I confessed and she squinted her eyes, the confusion evident on her face."You're——""Yes, I found out not long ago."The Queen wasn't saying anything and she sighed as she moved towards the log of wood to sit.We had come out of the house for some air. Norman had left earlier an
Alpha Harold’s pov;You are all dismissed," I said after a long silence.I needed to talk to Norman , but I had to do it privately, not In front of some of the guards who were already seeing me as some sort of dummy Alpha who was being controlled by Noreen.How two weak women could break out of a well guarded cell was something I just couldn’t understand and I needed answers!Someone had let them out! Someone who knew the nooks and crannies of the dungeons.This wasn’t who I was and I had already allowed a lot of bullshits from her because I didn’t want her to feel bad and she was carrying my child again!As soon as the guards all left, I faced him."Where were you yesterday, I couldn't get a hold of you?" I questioned as I looked at the window, shoving my hands into my pocket, my back to him."I was out," he replied casually. He was either a good pretender or he didn't realize I was already Suspecting him."Out where?" I demanded as I spun around to face him."I had to go get some ai
Noreen’s pov;We spun around to see his very familiar face. I furrowed my brows, wondering what he was doing here.Norman!The Alpha’s best friend and Gamma! Had Slpha Harold sent him?"You rescued us?" I asked, confused.I felt my heart flutter at that thought. He probably didn’t want to offend the woman he thought he loved, Noreen, but somehow, he felt something for me and had secretely ordered his Gamma to rescue me.“I did.”All the times I had seen him, he was always nonchalant and indifferent. I remember Alpha Harold telling me that he was actually fun if I get to know him, beneath his very tough exterior. He apparently, considered himself an adventurer of some sort. "Well, I couldn't let any harm befall an innocent person and the Queen. I didn't know what that witch fed the Alpha that could make him imprison his late father’s wife and the woman he loved," he said, shoving his hands into his pocket as he glanced at me, as of to tell me that he knew my real identity.“You kno
Noreen’s pov;It didn't come as a surprise when I was in my room pondering on what the healer had said when some guards barged in and arrested me, on the order of Luna.I did not resist nor complain as I had already expected even worse than that. I had expected her to even feed me poison.I was thrown in a cell, this time,a different cell, not the same one I had stayed at before.What did surprise me was when a few hours after I had been arrested and kept in a cell, the Queen joined me."What—""Don't ask," she said, cutting me off."How?""The bloody witch, who else," she shot out as she laid down properly on the floor."Why?, I mean,how?, you are—-," I stuttered."The former Queen ? the Alpha’s stepmother? Ian’s mother?—I guess all that means nothing to her," she stated and turned her face away from me."She said we were rebels. Members of the outlanders and I being an accomplice to murder and associating with a traitor," she chuckled darkly, and from her voice, it was obvious tha
Alpha Harold’s pov;It was indeed a difficult situation and very weird too!I remember marking Noreen at that very spot, but when we got married, she had requested that I marked her again, that the witch couldn’t done something to wipe off her mark.Had the witch done something truly? Why else would my mark be on Avery’s body? A woman I had never touched!Even if I wanted to try to Save her which was very weird, that would compromise my position with Noreen.She kept insisting that the healer was telling a lie, she believed that both the healer and Avery were in league and were members of the outlanders.She insisted that the healer be interrogated in order to ascertain the truth, but I knew better.I have known the healer since I was born, she was trustworthy. I had to find a way to save Avery without compromising my relationship with Noreen, while also finding the truth about everything.Avery had refused to leave, despite getting her father involved, she said she wasn’t at the mans
