Alpha Theo’s POVMy grip on her neck tightened as I glared at her while she gasped for air. I could hear Olivia coughing as she panted heavily. Scowling at Dora, I wished I could just kill her for even entertaining the thought of harming Olivia, but then she was my sister, and I was forced to let go of her.The moment my grip released her neck, she fell to the ground and began coughing repeatedly as she tried to catch her breath. I turned to Olivia and saw that she looked confused about what was happening.“You…” Dora shouted at Olivia. “You will hear from me.” She threatened and ran out of the room.My gaze met Olivia's, but I looked away, moving my eyes around the room. “Where is the nurse assigned to you?” I murmured, and Olivia didn’t respond. I looked her way and saw tears gathering in her eyes. The sight made me angry and worried.“Why are you crying?” I asked in an annoyed tone, but she didn’t respond. Instead, she continued crying, and I wasn’t comfortable with her tears.“Can
Alpha Leo's POVI could see the shocked look on Theo's face; it was obvious he wasn't expecting me to say it to Mother, but I saw no need to hide it from her. Soon, Olivia will have to return to the mansion, and we will have to tell Mother about it.“What did you say?” Mother asked in disbelief. “Did I hear you right? Did you just say Olivia is your mate?” She asked, sounding confused.“Yes, Mother, we knew she was our mate the day we met her, but we couldn’t say it because of Austin's condition. One thing led to another, and we had sex and marked her,” I explained, and Mother's mouth was left open. She couldn’t comprehend what she had just heard.“This can't be possible… you two are pranking me, right?” She asked, wanting us to laugh and tell her it was a joke. But, when she noticed the severe look on our faces, she realized we were not joking with the news.“Holy Mary,” she exclaimed in shock and looked my way. “How…” She trailed off and shook her head. I could see that she was in d
Alpha Leo’s POVI ended the call and looked in Theo direction. “What is wrong?” He asked. “Is Olivia, she is trying to harm herself.” I said, and without waiting to get a response from him, I teleported and found myself in her room. Arriving in the room, I met Olivia with a knife in her hand, and it was placed right on her stomach while the doctor and two nurses were pleading with her. The moment Olivia saw me, she took a step back and glared at me. “Stay back. Don’t even come close to me.” She warned while positioning the edge of the knife on her belly. Fear gripped me and I didn’t know what to do at that moment. I was confused on what to do, I thought of going to her, but I feared she would pass the knife down her belly. “What are you doing?” Theo asked, I didn’t even notice he was beside me. “I'm ending all this.” She responded with a loud sob. “Stop her.” My wolf pleaded with worry. I also want to stop her, but I was scared she would harm herself before I get to her. “Can
Olivia’s POV I woke up to bright light coming in from the windows at the side and the noise of someone moving something in the room. I opened my eyes slowly, squinting because of the bright light. I looked around the room to see two nurses moving things around in the room. When they noticed me getting up, they stopped what they were doing and rushed over to me. “Good morning, Olivia. I hope you're feeling better this morning,” one of them asked me, and I nodded my head. “Yes I am, thank you,” I looked beside me to see that they had rearranged the room and taken away anything that could possibly be of harm to me. “We were assigned to look after you for now, until you leave,” the other nurse said. “Okay,” I replied. “Have some water,” she said as she handed me a glass of water. I took it and gently drank from it, but I noticed her hands never left mine as she guided it to my mouth. She held unto it until I was done, then took it to the furthest part of the room. I shook my he
Olivia’s POV After Leo left, I sighed and sat down on the bed, closing my eyes and taking a deep breath. I was feeling dizzy from everything that was going on. I shook my head and crawled up the bed, aiming to lie down. “Do you need anything?” Maya asked me, and I shook my head as I laid down, pulling the covers over myself. “No, thank you. I don't need anything. Just leave me alone,” I said and faced away from her. “Do they really expect me to stay in this room for nine months straight? I don't think I can do it,” I said to my wolf. “I think they're doing it because the wound is still fresh and because you cause harm to yourself.“I wished I died.” I murmured in tears. Everything was so exhausting and overwhelming, which I knew I wouldn’t be able to hold on anymore.“Don’t lose hope, the alphas are just angry but believe me they will come around really soon. They love you and nothing can change that.” My wolf comforted, but somehow I wasn’t comforted by her words.
There wasn't really anything that could comfort me in the situation I was. There were too many factors stopping me from reaching happiness and being at peace, and it would remain that way for a while.I sighed, closing my eyes the tears soaking the pillowcase.I heard a knock on the door, but I didn't look back. Maya must have stood up to answer it because I heard the door open.“Good day, ma'am,” she greeted the person.“Good day,” the person greeted back, and I recognized her voice. It was lady Catherine.My eyes widened as I looked back to find that she really was there. I pushed myself up and faced her. I couldn't believe that she had actually come to see me. I thought she would kill me or have me sent out the first chance she got.I was feeling guilty, really guilty of what I did to her. I wouldn't even be angry if she wanted me out of the house because it was worth her almost getting killed by me. I wouldn't blame her at all.Lady Catherine stood there, watching me. Her eyes tha
Alpha Theo’s POVI stood there, watching Olivia look at me with am incredulous look. She stared at me like I had spoken in a language she didn't understand. “Take that spoon up and eat,” I repeated. There “I already said I wasn't hungry, and there's nothing you can do to change that,” she said and rested her back, folding her arms in front of her. I stared at her for a while. She seemed to think that I was bluffing when I said I'd shove the food down her throat. I moved closer to her, to reach for the spoon, when she immediately grabbed it before I could. She cleared her throat and glared at me before opening the covered food and gave me a dirty look. I stared back at her, my Stoic expression never changing. She opened the covered plate and slowly started scooping the food and pushing it into her mouth little at a time. She was eating so slowly and so little that I was sure it would take her at least one hour to finish the whole food. As she ate, her face was in a permanent win
Alpha Leo’s POVI was seated in my study, trying to get some work done, but I knew that wasn't going to be possible. There were a lot of things going through my mind, so much that I couldn't even concentrate.I sighed as the thoughts in my head made the word on the paper I was looking at blur once more. I groaned and closed the file. I knew I wasn't going to get any work done, I'd just be wasting my time.I stood up from my chair and moved to the window, looking out of it. The situation at hand was getting out of hand, and if we didn't find a solution or a way to settle it soon, it would only get worse.As I stood there, my door opened and was banged closed. I frowned as I turned, wondering who had entered without knocking, and slammed my door shut. I turned around to see that it was Theo.He did not look happy at all. His eyebrows were furrowed, as he walked to sit on the couch in my study. He plopped down with a sigh and closed his eyes. I could already tell he wasn't in a good mood
Olivia's POVI smiled at Austin, who returned a weak smile. It's obvious he still regretted what he did, but I hold no grudges against him.“Olivia,” Dora's voice got my attention, and I turned to look at her.“I understand why you did what you did. As a little girl, you were brainwashed and told a lie. Anyone could easily have done what you did, even me. So, should I blame you for it?” She smiled and moved closer to me.“I forgive you, Olivia, and I hope you forgive me.” She smiled and hugged me. With a tear dropping on my cheek, I hugged her back.“Thank you! Thank you for forgiving me,” I said amid tears.“You are welcome,” Dora said, and we pulled away. I wiped off the tears on my cheek, and my eyes met with Father Darwin's. He smiled and moved forward to me.“I was angry with you for trying to hurt my family, but just as Dora said, I understand why you tried doing it. You have been brainwashed, and anyone could easily be a victim…” He took a deep breath and smiled at me. “I have
Alpha Theo’s POVAfter the elders left, I turned to look at Father Darin. I was confused at how he could go to such lengths just to prove a point.“How could you do such a thing?” I asked him. “We've been trying to make you understand this situation and see how Olivia has changed, but you remain adamant in your ways,”“There's nothing you're going to say that will make me change my mind, Theo. What's done is done. You might have avoided it today, but they will return tomorrow, and they're going to take Olivia whether you like it or not,” he said and I shook my head.“That will be over my dead body. You hear me, father? Over my dead body,” I said to him, and Leo and I left the living room, going upstairs to see Olivia.When we got there, she had been cleaned up and was still in bed with the babies in her arms. It seemed that they had fallen asleep, as she rocked them slowly with the support of our mother.We went over to look at them, and they looked so cute, their arms and legs in the
Alpha Leo’s POVI watched my father, a frown etched on my face. He stood there with determination in his eyes, and he didn't seem like anything would stop him from doing what he came here to do.“What is the meaning of what you're saying, father?” I asked him.“Exactly what you heard, Leo. The council of elder werewolves are already waiting downstairs for Olivia so that she can have her trial, and then judgement can finally be passed,”“What do you mean?” I asked him.I couldn't believe what I was hearing. It seems, immediately he had heard about Olivia's going into labor, he had summoned them all to wait until she had given birth.“Come down and see it for yourself if you don't believe me,” he said, a coy look on his face.“Father, what the hell is going on?” Theo asked as he came to stand beside me.“Follow me,” he said and gestured for us to follow him, and we did.When we got downstairs, we saw the council of elders werewolves sitting in the living room, waiting.“What the hell is
Olivia’s POVA few days had passed since I returned from the hospital, and we still hadn't found the perpetrator. It worried me a lot, but there was nothing I could do but wait.My door opened and alpha Leo and Alpha Theo walked into the room. They both came to sit beside me on the bed. I looked at them expectantly, waiting for them to talk.“We still haven't been able to find her,” he said, and I sighed. “But since we were able to find her picture, we have posters of her face pasted everywhere, so I'm sure we'll find her in no time,” he encouraged and I nodded my head.After he said that, I sighed, wondering who could have sent her.“Who do you think would have sent her? I've searched my head, but I haven't found anyone that would be capable of doing that, at all,”“You don't have to worry about that, Olivia. Just focus on taking care of yourself and the babies, and we'll focus on that, okay?” alpha Theo asked.I nodded my head, deciding to listen to what he said.Alpha Theo then pla
Olivia’s POVI opened my eyes to blinding light above me. I squinted and waited for a while, to let my eyes get used to the lift before I fully open them. I looked around, and I was in an unfamiliar place that looked like a hospital. I frowned, wondering why I was there. Two nurses were in the room, and when they noticed that I had opened my eyes, one rushed to me, and the other seemed to be calling for the doctor. “Hello, miss Olivia, how do you feel?” she asked.“I feel fine,”“Are you feeling nauseous, or any pain or discomfort of any kind?” She asked and I shook my head.“I don't. I feel fine. What happened?” Inasked her.“Well, you were rushed here after you showed signs of being poisoned,” she told me, and that was when memories of what had happened came rushing in.I gasped as my hands immediately went to my stomach.“What about my babies? Are they fine?” I asked, my eyes wide.“Your babies are fine, ma'am. There's absolutely nothing wrong with them,” she replied, and I sigh
Alpha Theo’s POV“Mate distressed.” My wolf announced, and immediately I got up.I teleported into Olivia room and met her whining in pain.“Olivia.” I called out to her, and Leo teleported into the room and rushed to her.“What happened to her.” I asked the maid as I carried Olivia into my arms and teleported away with her. I arrived at the hospital and the nurses and doctors who saw us brought a stretcher and I placed Olivia on it. I watched them take her to the emergency room while Leo and I began pacing around with panic and worry.Soon, mother was teleported to the hospital by father Darwin. Mother rushed to us and asked us what was going on, but we had no idea about it. We were just confused.“This isn’t labor, it is not yet time.” Mother murmured, and I knew she was right. This was not labor so why was she in pain. Filled with fear and concern, we waited until the door of the emergency room opened, and the doctor walked in.“What happened?” “She was poisoned, but luckily, sh
Olivia’s POV“Don’t worry about that.” She smiled at me.“So how is it being with the Austin and dora, I know it must be very hard for you right now.” “They still don’t wanna speak with me.”I understood that it was going to take a while, but it just felt very long, and I wanted them to come around soon.“Patience my dear…”“I know, I know, but it’s going to be very tough. I’m trying to deal with the reality of things.” I said calmly.Catherine was the only one I felt so free talking to. She was just so calm and she was always understanding.“I know how hard it is, but you need to calm down. I know it might be tough because you think everyone is against you…”“Isn’t everyone against me already, sir Darin and Darwin hates me so much, and sir Darwin is willing to do anything to make sure I leave. He offered me money and threatened to hurt me if I didn’t leave.” I said in a sad tone.“What? You know how paranoid he can be at times. This isn’t what I expected to hear from him. I am goi
Olivia’s POV Months later.I was seated in my room when Alpha Leo and Alpha Theo walked in. They came to stand in front of me and held out their hands to me.“What's going on?” I asked confused.“Let's go,” alpha Leo said.“Where are we going?” I asked again.“You'll see,” alpha Theo said with a sly smile on his face.I frowned and laughed before placing my hands in their as they helped me up. I was already eight months pregnant, and at the stage where I needed help to do everything because my stomach was huge.They helped me done the stairs slowly, and when we finally got to the bottom, they led me to a door in a part of the room that I hadn't been in before.We stood in front of the door, and I looked at them questioningly.“What's this about?” I asked.“You'll find out when we get in. Now, close your eyes,” alpha Leo said and looked at them, skeptical about that request.“There's actually no need for that, you know. You can just show me what's behind the door. What if I fall when
Alpha Leo’s POV I pulled at Olivia's bottom lip, sucking on it before pushing my tongue into her mouth, savoring the taste. I held unto her tightly, the thought of taking it further dropping in my mind, but I stopped and pulled away.It wasn't the time.Olivia smiled shyly and looked down at her fingers, before Theo raised her head and also kissed her deeply.“We're going to leave you to rest now. Make sure you sleep well and don't let anything disturb you, okay?” I said to her, and she nodded her head, still smiling.“Good night,” we said for the last time, and teleported out of her room to my room.We both sat down on my bed, looking at each other. I knew the same thoughts were running through our minds.“At this rate, I don't think I'll be able to let go of her. We're getting too attached, and when she gives birth, we will ask her to marry us?” Theo said, resonating exactly with what I was thinking. “I know Theo. That has been a prominent thought in my mind. I really don't know h
