Julie
I looked away from my mate, staring out the window as I pretended not to be aware of his presence. Truthfully, I was delighted to see him, even a little more than the realization that I was now an official member of the Villeyfield Pack. I never expected that I would be in this position one day, and I couldn't help the feeling of guilt that overwhelmed me. I had nearly destroyed the pack of my family, and I wasn't sure I could look my mate in the face again.
However, I was also happy that my position had been affirmed in the pack. It meant that none of them could execute me, because it appeared that I held a very high position in the pack. While I didn't know much about regular wolf packs, I had the idea that by virtue of my lineage, I was exempted from any punishment those elders had meted out for me.
After some moments of more thinking, I looked over to Donald who had now mirrored my position and was staring out the window. He looked like h
Donald I stormed out of Julie's room with blood boiling in my veins and my head throbbing. I didn't know what else to do about the issues between my mate and I. While I was happy that she was soon going to be an official member of the pack, I couldn't help the pain that engulfed my bodyband heart. It was still hard to believe that Julie came into my house with another man's pup and she pretended to love me. I couldn't help but wonder if she was actually playing with my feelings. I was in so much pain, and in the middle of the hallway, I fisted my hands and punched the wall. It made a loud sound, but it wasn't hard enough to inflict any pain in me. Even if it did, it couldn't be compared to the internal pain I was feeling. Once again, Julie had dashed my hopes as I had believed she would tell me that the child was mine and she was just angry that day. I didn't expect her to stick to the claims that the child wasn't mine. I was torn between leaving her alone and taking her out of the
Donald I looked at Ray as the pack elders shook their heads again. Like the three other times I had informed them about Julie's status, they were disbelieving. They didn't want to hear that the leader of the rogues was actually the former Alpha daughter, however, it was important for me to deal with this and get them to see my point. Because of this, I straightened myself and used another means of approach to get through to them. "Elders, I assume that you all trust my word, especially on matters like this. Like I've said earlier, my beta and I have been able to prove that Julie is one of us. I believe that the law states that she should be forgiven for her crimes." I paused and gauged their reactions before I continued. "However, I know that this won't be easy to do, considering how much she had threatened the fate of our pack. That's why I ask for your mercy." Immediately I finished talking, Ray took over. "Elders, it was not easy to arrive at this decision as well, as we understa
JulieI breathed in a sigh of relief when the door to my room swung open and remained that way. I couldn't remember the last time I had been able to walk freely, or allowed to see other people apart from Geraldine and Donald. It seemed so odd to me when she told me I was free to go outside the room I was caged in for more than half a month. It felt so satisfying to watch as Geraldine packed my things, while whistling a tune instead of watching me. I almost laughed out in delight, but I felt it would draw unwanted attention. Even more than I already had, considering that most of the helpers in the pack house had already passed by my open room, just to see the rogue leader who had turned princess royalty overnight. Curiously, I wondered what it would have been like if I still wanted to destroy this pack. It might have been easier for me to do, but that was not my major concern.Instead, it was the fact that I would be taken to a new room, more suited for someone of my 'status' as Geral
RayI raised my head up from the papers in front of me to glance at my friend who sat opposite me, as he whistled a happy tune. He was obviously in high spirits, ever since the pack elders had agreed to let his mate stay. While I didn't know what the decision would mean for Villeyfield Pack at large, I was happy for Donald. All these weeks, he had been so stressed with taking care of Julie amidst all the pressure from the pack elders to kill the rogues.Now, I wondered what would have happened if he actually went through with them? Maybe instead of smiling, he would be saddened by the fact that he allowed the death of his mate and Alpha Austin's daughter to take place. I vaguely remebered my doubts about his repeated deciosn to keep them alive, and I felt happy that, for once, he didn't listen to me.However, I couldn't help the worry that creeped around me at the new development. As much as I was happy about the fact that Julie had been formally accepted into the pack, I felt uncomfo
DonaldMy eyes flashed red as I witnessed the scene in front of me and I quickly moved towards the fighting duo to pull Julie off Aurelia. I fought down the urge to immediately shout, as I had been in my office when a palace help came to inform me that my wife to be was being beaten by the 'just accepted rogue'. Those were her exact words, and she was lucky not to stay long enough for me to berate her.Instead, Ray and I looked at each other in wonder before we went out to the living room, only to see Julie sitting on top of Aurelia and handing hot slaps on her face. For a moment, I was shocked beyond words and instantly wondered if Julie was that strong or my soon to be Luna was that weak. I couldn't blame her though, my mate was the leader of the most powerful rogue pack and I remembered, with hesitance, how she had nearly beaten me those weeks ago.Before I pulled Julie away from the lady she was beating black and blue, my eyes scanned the area for Geraldine. I had clearly instruct
JulieSlowly, I found my way to my new room, holding the walls for comfort as tears continued to drip from my eyes. Suddenly, the pack house felt so strange to be in and I felt like running out, but if I did so, I would definitely be greeted by more decorations for the wedding happening in less than twenty four hours. A wedding that I couldn't still believe was real.I could try to understand why Donald hadn't told me about it, but why didn't Geraldine? She knew how much I really loved him, yet she didn't think to tell me about the development. I could have saved myself the shame and embarassment I just went through in front of him, and the only thing saving me from the already hateful eyes of the pack helpers was the fact that they didn't know I was Donald's mate.Still, it didn't help me one bit. Soon, I got to my room and instantly opened the door, moving into it as I closed the blinds and switched off the lights. I needed to be in darkness so I could process my thoughts and figure
DonaldMy mind hadn't been settled since I shouted at Julie, and no matter how hard I tried to ignore my feelings, I still felt a bit guilty. Though I wouldn't admit it to anyone, I knew how condescending Aurelia could be at times. For a while, Julie hadn't been prone to physical violence and I had the suspicion that my fiancee had done something wrong.That was why I left my office, amidst all the work still piled up, and began to head to Julie's room. Maybe, this time we would both be in a calm mood and be ready to talk. However, I just walked up the stairs and rounded a bend when I saw my mate dressed in an all black ensemble. She was coming out of her room with gentle taps, like she wanted to sneak out or something and i frowned.Where could she possibly be going by this time, and dressed like that? As I got nearer to her without her knowledge, I began to think about several reasons for her attempt to sneak out. Was she going to meet Aurelia again? Was she on her way to meet me? I
JulieI tossed on the bed for the third time in less than five minutes, and finally sighed as I used a pillow to cover my face in frustration. I mimicked screaming into the pillow, knowing fully well that I didn't have the energy to actually do it, considering the things I had done that day. I squeezed my eyes shut trying to see if I would sleep, but when I counted to a hundred, and it wasn't working, I sat up and looked around.The clock opposite my bed showed that it was a few minutes after two in the morning, and I hadn't been able to sleep for up to ten seconds. After spending the whole day fighting and arguing with people, I expected that my body would be too tired in the night and I would easily fall asleep. However, that was not the case as my eyes were still shining bright, no matter how much I tried to get some rest.As I was about to stand up, a sudden pain shot from the side of my stomach and I winced as I hurriedly put my hand to the place where it hurt. The pain came agai
The air was fresh and scented like hope and promises of a very beautiful night. The warm breeze of that evening flowed through the curtains of the expensive restaurant they had picked for their vacation , outside the moon shined bright and full with it rays piercing through the cloudless sky. It was a perfect night for the two lovers who walked hand in hand illuminated by the lights of that beautiful night . Julie looked more beautiful than the night , adoring herself in a long floral violet dress . As they walked into the restaurant they searched around for their names on a table they had booked earlier for that occasion . The table where they both sat bore roses in a vintage vase and was covered with white beautiful french linen . A young couple aseated a stone throw from their table appeared to draw Donald attention and having noticed that he was far gone and lost in thought Julie was prompted to ask Donald what the reason was for his sudden distraction .
Epilogue ll*Donald* No matter how eventful that day went, it was finally over. Aurelia was dead finally, she was burnt and her remain had been emptied into the wind. She was dead and gone, gone for good, going from everyone's lives but will remain forever in our thoughts, we must admit. We all walked back home in tense awkward silence, I glanced over at Julie and when she caught me staring a while later she gave me an inquisitive gaze. Dinner that night was a well-made steak, we both took our time to cut each piece and enjoy the savoury taste of the best meal we've had in the last three days. After the meal, I helped Julie put the twins to bed they were growing pretty fast most especially Charlie who had howled for the first time that day, the twins were beautiful in their sleep and as we watched them Julie rested her head on my shoulder as we both smiled. " I will be in the pent room. " I whispered as I gave her a wink. After taking a cold long shower, I brou
Epilogue.Julie smiled as Donald's fingers curled her hand in his, the warmth was satisfying as ever. Everything was just in place, her little pumpkin was one year old. Feels as dreamy as ever, it wasn’t all perfect but they made it work. It had been all of a year. It was a beautiful evening, flakes of snow fell lightly. The party was as incredible as they plan, anything to make them happy. Julie watched Sharon play with the kids while Donald went on to have a chat with Ray.“Can’t believe it, they grow pretty fast?” Julie said to Sharon as she picked a glass of Wine.“I know right!” Sharon grinned and rubbed her belly, “ and this little one right here…""Yea that little nugget,” Julie said quickly before Sharon could finish. “Can’t wait to be its godmother.” They both giggled and hugged.“I can’t believe I’m having a baby too.”“Yea.. no worries sweetie, I'll be just right here through it all.” Julie gave a warm smile and cupped Sharon’s face."I know right,” Sharon squeezed her
*Donald* Aurelia was bounded in chains, and kept in a cage, while we traveled back to Villeyfield. She strained upon the chains, trying to cut them lose, but it was all to no avail . At times she would Cuss, and hoping to rouse pity, she would burst into tears, sadly no one paid attention. She kept quiet as the pack travelled in the woods. When I passed the cage later, she had reached for my shirt and begged for mercy ,deep down I felt pity for her; as she was once my wife, but after what she had just done I was quick to decide she needed no mercy. At least not mine. It took longer to get to Villeyfield, as many of those wounded in the park had to be cared for. Julie took her time going round and,offering help to who ever needed it , Sharon was of great help as well. Aurelia knew what was coming to her , she knew she would be put on a trial, and made to hang if found guilty. She was scared of this fate, but there was nothing she could do now to turn back the hands of time, it was
CHAPTER 125 *Donald* Everyone in the room had changed into their wolf form and st the signal from Aurelia they attacked. Julie ran toward her again and took a big leap in the air but was attacked mid air by one of Aurelia packs , I was distracted by that and didn't see when one her men hit me across the face with his fist , as I feel to the ground spitting out blood I looked up and came face to face with a man way taller and bigger than I was . He picked me off the ground like a piece of paper and started tossing me around then he tried strangling me ,just about the time I was about losing consciousness I saw Ray turning toward him from the corner of my eyes . Ray hit with his fist till he got distracted and I was able to free myself from his grips , Ray and myself took different turns him and tearing him with our claws , he caught Ray and fling him across the room and as he turned toward me I was able to blow out the dust in my palm into his eyes . That was enough di
*Aurelia*The twins had been a trouble to me since I kidnapped them, I laughed to myself again after remembering how easy it was the day I had abducted them, I thought about how I had deceived the whole of Valleyfield pack with the little fuss that night and made away with the twins while everyone was distracted and no one was looking, I had written the letter my self earlier that day and while I kidnapping the twins one my most trusted guards was at Donald home dropping the letter. It was a perfect plan well carried out. The fact one of the twins looked like Donald a lot made me angrier but no matter how crazy I was at their parents or how mad the twins made me each time they cried I could not bring myself to cause harm to them, all I wanted was their mother dead, then I would go back to Donald and wait for a while before coming with an idea to bring the twins back. I had not expected Donald or his pack to find me or know I was the one behind the kidnap, deep in my mind I w
*Donald*When I saw Julie with a letter I didn't know what to expect, as I held the thin paper in my hands."Could this be a clue?" I thought to myself."Could this be those that abducted my boys asking for a ransom?" A lot of questions were running through my mind as I read the letter with trembling fingers, As read through the letter word by word, reading through the threats and conditions I could swear something was familiar with the letter, the way it was written but I couldn't quite figure it out and so I read it again and again and again till..." That daughter of a bitch !" I cussed.I knew who it was with the way the letter "R " was curved at the edges here and there and the excessive use of uppercase letters, only one person could that and that was my ex-wife " Aurelia "." Why would she do something like this? ""What audacity! " I was raging Julie must have seen my reaction and I could see her eyes lit with a glitter of hope." Do you know who that is?" She asked."Do yo
*Julie* I could see his lips tremble, I had never seen Donald this scared, confused and uncoordinated in a long while, It was so intense that as he walked toward me I could sense every bit of emotions eating him up all summing up to fear, a deep dark fear. " Julie! " he murmured as his voice cracked. That was far as he could say before his voice was betrayed by all these penned emotions as he broke into a brief sob he tried so hard to mumble with his fists. "I am so sorry I could not protect them " Donald whispered As he cradled my head against his chest, I could hear his heart beating fast, I had meant to tell him it wasn't his fault the boys were kidnapped but I was overwhelmed by deep sorry also and could do nothing than drench his shirt with my tears. When the guards Ray had sent earlier came back with no single traces of the twins or their whereabouts Donald's mood switched immediately to one I was more familiar with. He was furious at himself and when there was not
*Donald* As I stood by my best friend Ray and two other men that must have belonged to the highly ranked family of the pack as both were dressed quite expensively, we all sipped a locally brewed wine chatting and laughing about the recent happenings and commenting on other things including women, initially I had turned down the offer of alcohol but remembering how angry Julie must have been right now about the party, I had to drink to take my mind off it and whatever might come up later at the same time I controlled what I drank because I was watching over the twins, one of the twins was awake as he chuckled and clasp my pinky finger, suckling at it.Ray mentioned that one of the twins looked a lot like me and the two men agreed and cheered aloud waking the other twin they were drunk, I shushed them as I rocked the Colt side to side trying to put them back to sleep, as my mind wandered back to the party.Truly, I never liked parties or social events being a private person but t
