On arrival, I was informed my dad has been moved to the critical care unit of the hospital. Not because he's in critical condition and needs intensive monitoring but because the unit is located in a secluded wing of the hospital which has never been used since most shifters were rarely ill to the extent of needing intensive care.

According to Alpha Nate, apart from the doctor and the maid he promised to help get for my dad, nobody in the Night Howlers pack knows my dad is still alive. Not even Alpha Nate's Beta and his Luna.

Henrik is already waiting for us when we drive into the hospital's critical care unit through the back gate. As he leads us to where my dad's new room is located, he keeps us up to date on the things we missed during our few hours of absence. When we arrive in front of my dad's room, he stands guard by the door with Bear and we enter.

"Thank you, Martha..." My dad says to an old woman that I guess must be the maid Alpha Nate brought.

    "Thirty-four years ago, way before we became the Alpha and Beta of the largest pack in North America, Drew and I were both working with the Council. The Tactical and Intelligent Department to be precise. The Council had been getting reports about werewolves mysteriously going missing. Sometimes a whole pack of maybe about fifty to hundred man-wolves, she-wolves, and pups would just disappear out of their settlements into thin air without a trace, living behind their shacks and camps.It doesn't make sense right? A whole community could not just up and leave when there are no threats to their lives and properties right?" He asks and Eric and I both nod in agreement with him"Drew and I were assigned the case and our investigation took us to the mountains of San Francisco where we happened upon a gory scene. A small poor pack consisting of twenty-six wolves including pups was brutally attacked. Owen was the only survivor. He was fifteen years old then. Since he had no surviving family

    I'm angry and can't believe what I just heard my dad say. He suspected his Luna had a hand in the death of my mom and Eric's parents and he's this casual about it? He's still lenient with her! This is so fucking unbelievable!'Calm down man, will you!' Eric warns sharply through our mind link. He senses my mood has changed and immediately moves to calm me down before it gets out of hand"What made you suspect your Luna?" He quickly asks my dad while he mind-link with me, so I won't have another opportunity to speak"I don't know how she did it, how she managed to find out about Viveka and me coming back together when we've not even told the closest people to us. We planned on breaking the news of our coming back together to Drew and Liv alongside the announcement of the new baby that we were expecting...""Wait, what?... What baby?... My mom was pregnant when she died?" I rapidly ask in disbelief. How can I be calm as Eric pleaded with me with what he just said? My mom didn't just com

    "Huh!?..." I stupidly reply to the bombshell my dad dropped on my lap. To say I'm shocked is an understatement. I'm totally flabbergasted "My mother was an original or did I not hear you properly?" I ask my dad again and he just nods back at me in returnMy mouth is still half open with shock when I look towards Eric for more confirmation. I see he also has the same shocked expression on his face which further confirms to me, even without my dad's words that my ear is working perfectly. "I am an original werewolf!" I say loudly this time, more to myself than for the benefit of my dad and Eric who are in the room with me.Who would have thought that I'm a descendant of one of the original shifter families that I've talked shit about with Eric so many times? I had no clue! How would I have known when none of my family members deemed it fit to tell me! Not my mom when she was alive and not my uncle that I stayed with for fifteen whole years! I saw my mom's birth certificate once and

    Eric looks very serious. Even though there's no trace that he was joking with me on his face, I still found what he said hard to believe. How can someone who has had the wrong mindset for years be among the chosen ones?"Are you being serious with me right now, Eric? This is not the time to joke around, my dad is with us. It will be disrespectful if you're joking about such a serious matter." I deliberately emphasized on my dad and the time not to joke since I know the scoundrel does whatever he wants in the presence of his Uncle Knox as he calls my dadHe rolls his eyes at me in exasperation before turning to my dad instead"Uncle Knox, you said the mark to know a chosen one is a red crescent moon located in a private place on their body so it won't be easy for the enemies to notice right?""Yes..." My dad replies with a frown of concentration on his face."''Well, I saw something like that on your right butt cheek when you were in the shower earlier...""My right butt cheek?" I sa

    Ash's POVOn the bed after I slammed the door in Celine's face. I find out I'm too excited to sleep. I keep tossing from one end of the bed to the other since my mate's face and the conversations we had kept playing over and over again in my mind.Who would have thought that the Ash that every shifter in Night Howlers pack referred to as a freak, ugly, maid, servant, and many more degrading names will actually have a mate who is important to the Alpha of the Night Howlers pack? He's not just any wolf but the most handsome of them all.I'm so happy I can't contain my happiness. He was right by not telling me his name since I feel like shouting out my feeling for him from on top of the pack house so every shifter will know I've finally found my mate and I've fallen hopelessly in love with him But even though he said nobody knows who he is right then and I shouldn't tell anyone about him, I wonder if I can tell Martha who is like a mother to me. I thought and wondered about it till I fi

    Martha holds my two arms while looking into my eyes as she bombards me with questions "When did you find your mate within the little hours I left you to yourself? Who is the person? How did it happen? Do you like him? Are you in love with him already..." I laugh as I watch her go on and on cheerily. "One question at a time Martha, please... Okay, here is the thing, I couldn't smell him as my mate yet. I didn't know why before until he told me it was because I'm yet to be eighteen. Oh, Martha! The attraction between us was undeniable! It was exactly like how you described it to be if not more... I think I'm in love, Martha!" I reply and she laughs,"Oh, Ash..." She says and pulls me in for another hug"I am so happy for you girl. So happy!" She says again when she released me from the hug. "So how did you both meet? Who is he? Is he a member of the Night Howlers pack?" "We met after you left. I was just done cleaning the master bedroom when he walked into the room." Her eyes grew r

    Miranda's POVI've been crushing on Ethan since when I was old enough to understand the attraction between a girl and a boy. He always had time to play fun games with Emily, his sister, and me when we were kids, that was until he turned fifteen, got himself a girlfriend, and totally cut contact with me. Even though I still see him around with Emily, he stopped playing with us and never acknowledged me until many years later when he flew back home all the way from England to specially attend my fifteenth birthday party. I also got my first kiss from him on that same day, it doesn't matter to me if it was just a chaste one on the cheek. A kiss is a kissMy feelings for him deepened after my birthday. I texted him one day to let him know how I feel about him and he just replied to me with an okay emoji. Even though he didn't tell me he feels the same way about me, he also didn't discourage me from loving him so I took his emoji response as a confirmation that he feels the same way about

    Thor's POV"What next?" I ask Eric as we walk out of my dad's room. It feels as if my brain is shut down and I can no longer think properly. The thought that I almost lost my dad again scares me shitless. I wonder, what if he has another heart attack? Will he be able to survive it or he wouldn't like the doctor had said"You need to rest now. Get some sleep. We still have a couple of hours before the sun comes up. There's the meeting with Alpha Nate and who knows what trouble or mystery the fake news of your dad's death would bring to us?""Yeah, we should go back to the house," I replied absent-mindedly. I'm not really sleepy and would have kept myself busy with work if I was at home but I'm not. Since there's nothing for me to do this early in the morning, I have no other choice than to go to bed as Eric said, knowing I would probably count sheep till the sun comes upWe finally arrive back at the house and immediately I enter the room assigned to me, everything changes.

And remember, your best man is closely behind."I happily smile and nod at our guests as I walk behind the old man hobbling on his walking stick.I can't believe that the Council Chairman himself is going to officiate our wedding!? He's already so old but still makes the time. Today sure is full of pleasant surprises.

    I look at my Patek Philippe Nautilus watch before getting up to start dressing up. Just as I put on my tuxedo jacket, someone knocks on my door."Come in," Eric answers Timothy enters, already dressed for the occasion."The guests have arrived. The ceremony will begin soon." He saysI nod and reply,"We're ready. We'll be out soon." He nods and leavesEric finishes buttoning his tux before turning to me. He looks at me critically as he brushes something off my satin lapel and straightens my bowtie."Hmm..." He says satisfactorily before taking a step back. "Hair– on point. Skin– flawless. Tux– immaculate. Shoes– nice pair, they really compliment your outfit. All in all, you look good, man. Your bride will fall in love with you all over again."I smile at his compliment."What about the ring? Do you have it?" I ask to be sure he hasn't forgotten."I have it right here." He replies with a nod, patting on the area it is resting inside his tux. I exhale and nod"Then shall we?" He

    Instead of going back to sleep like I tell him, he groans and slumps back into bed."Ugh!... C'mon, don't be a bitch about this."I scoff, looking at him in disbelief."Who's the bitch here? You're obviously tired and need to rest. I'm allowing you to do that but you can't see my good intentions." I guess he thinks I was being sarcastic when I apologized for disturbing his sleep.He sighs and gets out of bed then go to the wet bar. There, he gets a bottle of water and gulps it down in one go. "Now I'm awake..." He says before asking me, "Water?""Yeah, sure," I replyHe hands me the water before going to sit on the sofa."Alright, tell me about your anxiety attack.""I can't sleep. I thought I mentioned that earlier." ''Why can't you sleep?""How the hell am I supposed to know? I just can't!" I know I sounded defensive right now. That's because I know this conversation would end up with him poking fun at me."I wouldn't have found sleep difficult if I was at Alpha's mansion. My m

    Two weeks laterThor's POV 1:10 am! I glare in disbelief at the digital clock on my bedside drawer as if it's its fault that time chooses to be moving at a snail's pace today of all days. It was 12:49 the last time I checked, I can't believe that only nineteen minutes had gone by since then."Ugh!" I growl and slump back in bed as I recall all the advice I got yesterday from all the females around me. (that did not include my mate, mind you. I haven't spoken to her in two days because of some Howell's wedding tradition)"You should go to bed early, Alpha," Lily said as they were about to leave for Night Howlers Pack. (They are Ash's maids and matron of honor.)"Yes, you should." Carla chipped in, nodding, before I could ask Lily why she wanted me to go to bed early. "Poor sleep can lead to breakouts, you know?" "Breakouts?" I asked, looking at both of them with interest."Yes, breakout. Believe me, Alpha, you don't want that..." Clarita replied, looking appalled as she shook her he

    I step out of the lobby's revolving door and frantically look around me. I don't see him anywhere but his essence is stronger. He's definitely here."Ma'am..." A voice questioningly calls and I turn around to see Jeremy, one of my security details that comes from my Dad. I wonder where he sprang from? "Have you seen the Alpha– I mean my mate?" I say, handing him my backpack."No, ma'am, I haven't." He replies, looking in the parking lot's direction."Yeah, maybe he's just arriving," I say and hurry towards the place. When the parking lot becomes visible, I smile when I see him leaning on his car reading a book. Immediately, he turned in my direction and grinned as if he knew I was coming. I know it's because he smells my essence.I run, speedily closing the gap between us, and then jump into his arms, tightly wrapping myself around him like a koala bear hugging a tree."Oh, hi, monkey." He says, chuckling.I laugh, slightly pulling away from him "Hello, monkey's husband," I say. "

    Twelve weeks later"Prom is more than a dance, Miss Reynolds. It is also used to celebrate and honor students who excel in academics, athletics, and extracurricular activities..." Mrs Jones, my homeroom teacher, lectures me. "Even though you're only spending this term with us, your excellent performance has made you popular among the teachers. You're also loved by not just your peers but also your juniors. Even though you're a new student, they voted for you to be on the prom court, and with what I've been hearing on the grapevine about you, I'm sure they would vote for you to be this year's Prom Queen. Now, won't they be disappointed if they find out you don't want to be part of the event? It would be a shame if..."'Would it? Aren't you over-exaggerating?' I think as I continue to listen to her drone on and on. Contrary to what she's been saying. As far as I know and can see, no one truly cares about anyone amongst my peers in Apex Academy. Most of them are rich, pompous, opportu

    "You didn't have your wolf and you weren't aware of my existence. I just recently figured it out myself. That was why I said earlier that a lot of things about our bond recently became clear to me. Even though I was made aware of our mate bond, I didn't know it was such a big deal. Uncle Elias also didn't see it as such; otherwise, he wouldn't have gotten me a girl on my birthday. Only The Seer knew. Knowing he's one of our number one fans, I guessed he also didn't make a big deal out of me being with other women before I met you because he knew the connection between us was not complete. You were too young. You were six years old when I was sixteen..." It suddenly feels as if I've been slapped in the face with the difference in our age. Damnit! Why didn't I think about that before!? Now that he called my attention to it, I feel I've been insensitive. To think I was eight years old when he was eighteen! An eight-year-old child is too young to shift to their wolves and has no busines

    "About us..." He replies, and my body stiffens. "About what happened before you left for Hill-backside." "But I thought everything was fine now. We are fine now so why do we still need to discuss that?" I say and want to stand up, but from his lap, he prevents me, holding me in place. "Please..." He says, looking at me soulfully I exhale "I just don't see any reason why we should talk about that. We're fine now, aren't we?... I love you. You love me. Nothing else should matter except that." I say, not knowing if I should confess to him my real reason for not wanting to discuss that matter. Should I tell him I'm afraid to hear what he wants to say? I'm afraid I might not be able to bear it if he tells me how he manipulated his way around our mate bond? Should I let him know I would rather pretend Delilah never happened than risk hearing about her and not be able to forgive him out of jealousy. How would I let him know that I just want to forget the bad memories. I don't want to di

    Even though it bothers me, I'm not really surprised when I return from the bathroom to see Thor in his nightwear, sitting on the sofa far away from the bed. At least now I know without doubt that something is indeed bothering him.He stands when he becomes aware of my presence."Can we have a few words?" He asks seriously and my heart thumps again.I nod. Few words about what? What could be bothering him this much? I wonder as I walk towards him. He doesn't need to say another word before I know what he's about to discuss is very serious. It's written all over his face. "I sensed something was bothering you. What do you want to talk about?" Even though I asked, I dread his reply and hurriedly add"Don't tell me! I don't want to know...""You don't!" He exclaims. "But we really need to...""Okay– but please not right now!..." I plead. "I can tell from your expression that what you want to talk about is serious and I... I don't want to talk about anything serious right now, Thor! Tod
