Chad's POV. I took a quick shower after training. The training facilities were equipped with everything. The pack house has a gym, showers, and even a breakfast buffet ready for everyone after training. As well as a vast space outdoors for sparring. Dane and I didn't want to go back to our pregna
Bella's POV I walked with Chad side by side. People stared at us as we passed by them. Chad's presence was impossing. It was impossible not to stare at him. He looked magnificent, not to mention that he is impossibly tall. His muscles flexed with each of his movements and his aura, although reigned in was still threatening and powerful. Nobody dared to whispered about me in his presence anymore. The whispers were still there, though. They couldn't fathom the fact that their king was with a woman who was pregnant by another. 'Is the king not a jealous man?' Some would ask. 'If she was his real mate, he couldn't possibly stand this.' 'I would've gotten rid of that pup by now if I were him. It would only bring discord with his biological pups in the future.' All of those whispers hit me like lashes soaked with wolfsbane. What pained me the most is that all of those whispers will torture my son throughout his childhood as well. Would he hate me for abandoning his father's p
Hendrick' POV I woke up feeling grudgy. Dr. Strauss' tranquilizers are worse than a hangover. There's a soft pillow next to me that smells so much like Bella. I grabbed it, and I inhaled its scent, making me feel better already. Vanilla and honey. An image of her flushed face and tempting body projects in my mind, and I tried to erase it as quickly as it came. "Lycan King Chad brought it for you." Dr. Strauss chimed in. I nodded without looking at him. "I want to see her. Tell him to let me have dinner with her. He could go meet with the spies, and I'll cover for him or something." I said almost pleadingly. "I only suffered this relapse because Chad has not been giving me a chance to be close to her since the pillow incident." I had too much time in my hands, and I started researching everything about pregnancies on my phone. Soon, all my social media was infested with advertisements about all kinds of products for pregnant women. That pillow had called my attention. I did no
Bella's POV I turned on the water's faucet at the very same moment that some noises came from my room. A door slammed seconds after that. I couldn't hear well but I thought Chad said "fuck!" I shook my head. He was acting very weird. When I looked into his eyes, they seemed different. They were th
Chad's POV As soon as I realised what the purpose of those fireworks was, I felt my blood boil. Hudson and Holloway were mocking me in my own turf. They think they can disrespect me and my woman and get away with it. If a war starts all over again, be it, but tonight, both of their intestines will
Bella's POV I felt Chad tensing at my question. We entered his room, and I heard some noises coming from mine. Chad kissed my temple. "I always treat you the same." He said, sounding hoarse. Something crashes in my room next door, making me startle. "Relax, it must be Rose. Once I mark you, you
Chad's POV Bella followed me through the cold hallways in my underground lair. I tried to help her down the steep stairs, but she wouldn't let me. My heart clenched. I don't know if I was leading her to the beginning of my own doom by taking her to meet Hendrick. I was still mad at Cobalt. I bloc
Bella's POV When I saw Hendrick inside that cold cell like cage, my heart pang sending a wave of nauseting dread to my stomach. It was like looking at two water droplets. I got closer, and I couldn't help but reach out to cup his face. It was as if he was my Chad in that heart-wrenching state. Whe
Bella's POV Chad woke up in the middle of the night. His low growls startled me, waking me up as well. He was sitting at the edge of the bed. His breathing was labored. For the first time since I met him, a flicker of fear ran through my body. "Chad, are you alright?" I put my hand on his back,
Bella's POV As the days passed by, I immersed myself in preparing for the full moon's ritual that would break the curse. Hendrick and I haven't told Chad. He would never agree to it if he knew what the ritual would involve. Even Hendrick does not know the whole truth. Hendrick paces back and forth
Chad's POV I entered Bella's room and found her sleeping peacefully. Even when every time she ends up being hurt one way or another, she keeps going on with her head held up high. Her resilience floors me. I look at my clothes covered in blood. I spent all night interrogating the Natbian prisoners
Bella's POV When all hell broke loose, I got distracted, trying to figure out what was going on. I realized too late Hudson's intentions. He twisted my arm behind my back, pressing me against his chest while covering my mouth with his other hand roughly. He moved us swiftly towards his quarters.
Chad's POV I can practically feel Hudson seething underneath his diplomatic façade when I saw him. I pull Bella closer to me, staking my claim. I'm sure Hudson was already singing victory. With Arona as queen consort, it would have been easier to try to get rid of me. "Try" was the key word. My wa
Arona's POV I was seething. My blood was boiling. I entered my room and put on my clothes quickly. With the back of my hand, I cleaned some of the angry tears falling down my eyes. I need Braxten to help me dissipate some of this anger before I explode. The door opened, but it was Hudson. He was e
Bella's POV My heart thumped when I heard my name. I squared my shoulders and stepped outside with determination. My mind overflowed with my father's words of encouragement. 'Don't ever let your enemy think that you're afraid. Fight with everything you've got, Even when you think that you're doome
Chad's POV The day of the competition was finally here. This morning, Bella had gone to visit the shrine where she had placed the urns of her father and her son. The day of his son's funeral, Beta Luca had brought back Alpha General Lockwood's ashes to accompany his grandson. Bella didn't want her
Bella's POV Chad's newfound information came as a surprise to me. I would have never thought that Arona was a half witch. Should I be worried? With everything that Camille had taught me, I won't be at a disadvantage, and I don't want to start doubting myself. Besides, we can't really use magic dur
