Olivia’s POVConfused, like the rest of the family, I stared at the alphas and then at the strange lady who was beaming happily at everyone. I looked at Austin, wanting him to explain to me what was actually happening, but he seemed as confused as me.Alpha Theo wrapped a hand around her waist and looked at his parents. “Mother, fathers, this is Veronica…” he trailed off and then held my gaze. “I and Leo are dating her.” He revealed, and an uncomfortable feeling hit me as a knot formed in my stomach. I looked at Alpha Theo, who looked at me for another moment, then looked away and smiled at the lady, who was beaming happily.“Really?” Lady Catherine sounded surprised. “Yes, Mother, we've been dating her for two months now,” Alpha Leo added, and I looked at him to see the serious look on his face. I could see that he meant every word that came out of his lips; he wasn’t joking about what he just said.“Mine!” Lolita howled possessively in my head, causing a strange feeling of jealousy
Alpha Theo's POVThe moment she left the table, I looked at Leo, who nodded at me. By her reaction, it was obvious she could also feel that we were mates, but she was hiding it. “We should move on to the next plan,” Leo suggested. I nodded and leaned over to Veronica. “We are moving to the next plan,” I announced to her, and she nodded.“Mother, fathers, we'd like to show Veronica around,” I said as I got up, while Leo did the same. Mother smiled and looked at Veronica. “You are welcome to our home, my dear. Once you are done with them, can we discuss. I would love to know you,” Mother said, and I scoffed inwardly. Mother was already seeing her as her future daughter-in-law.Leo and I led Veronica up the stairs and took her to the library. When we got there, I locked the door and then turned to her. “Are you ready?” I asked, and she nodded. “Then let’s begin,” Leo said and went to her. First, he sealed his lips with hers and began kissing her, while she responded back. I could see tha
ALPHA LEO'S POVSeeing how she avoided our gaze sold her out to me; I could tell immediately that something was wrong. I had an unsettling feeling within me, and I knew Theo felt the same way, especially when we were hit by sudden news of pregnancy.“What do you mean by that?” Theo asked. His facial expression spoke louder than his words; we were taken surprised. We had planned thoroughly and never saw it coming.“Yes, you heard me right,” Olivia answered as she stood to her feet, the look on her face bold, and her frown deepened. I felt a great surge of anger wash through me, but then it was instantly replaced by pain and regret.“I'm pregnant; the child is that of your brothers, so whatever news you think you have, hold it to yourself,” she lashed out, her tone fierce. I recalled it to be as she headed down towards the door, and I hastened my steps towards the door. She glared at me as I blocked her path, our gaze fixed into each other.“There is no way I'll believe this. You can't
Olivia's POVAnger and hateThose are the feelings I got as soon as they both left the room. I loathed the mere fact that they were with another woman just to guilt-trip me.However, the lie had spilled through my lips. Apparently, I had thought nothing of it at the moment. I felt way too cornered, spewing whatever came to my mind. Not long after they left, I realized how much of a problem I had caused.I felt an uneasiness within me. It was my wolf, Lolita. She never saw meaning in this quest of mine and knew a lot was up my sleeves, but what choice did I have?“What was that about? And yes, I mean the lies about being pregnant, for Austin of all people,” I felt the disgust she had at the moment. She probably hated me for every decision I made, but I never knew it would end up this twisted.“I had to lie. What would you have supposed I did? Relax into the air as I watched them force the mate bond onto me?” She scoffed on hearing my words, being unrealistic, and I knew she was about t
ALPHA THEO'S POV“What is up with him?” Father Darin asked as he walked into the room, putting me in a tight spot and diverting my gaze from him. I scanned the room; a lot of damage was already done, and there was no possible sane explanation for it.“What brings you to my room?” I asked, trying to switch the line of discussion, but I knew better. Father Darin was the type to get to the root of matters, and he was at it already.“I heard noises. I rushed as I was just around the corridors, and when I checked, it turned out to be Leo. He wasn't in good shape when he left as well,” he complained, just as I had expected.I ran my hands deep into my hair before glancing right back at him. “He'll be fine. It's nothing we can't handle on our own. You know how he is at times, but we'll be fine. I'll speak to him.”He didn't seem convinced with my little speech, but he withdrew. He didn't pester me or say anything else. His eyes lingered on the broken vases. He made his way towards the door a
Olivia's POVIt was dinner time, and we were all seated around the table. The bowl of salad was passed across to me. I raised my brows as I shifted the bowl to Austin, my gaze locked with that of Theo.He appeared to have stared at me for a long time, and I had barely taken notice. I lowered my gaze back toward the plate of salad right in front of me. I fiddled around with the fork as I rolled it into the pasta. Times like these were what I hated, but it was pointless to keep complaining. There was no excuse left for me; I had not a single choice.The silence was so thick that it slashed into thin air. The tension filled the air, as no one had said a thing all along. The eyes of Leo fell on me as I raised the bit of pasta into my mouth. I also felt Sir Darin's gaze on me, but I had not a single choice. There was not much to that; it was no news how he hated me, and I was surprised at how quickly I had gotten used to it.I shifted on my feet, rather antsy. I was getting uneasy. I hated
Olivia’s POVThe next day, I wandered through the halls and eventually found myself headed down to the kitchen. Cautiously, I peered through and saw the maid preparing a salad. There was only one person that does this so often, and it also meant that she had just finished her breakfast, which suited me well.I walked in casually, glancing across the kitchen. Everyone was so busy that they had not quite taken note of my appearance.“Miss Olivia!” a maid called out, startled at my appearance. A smile spread across my lips as I walked up to them.“It's okay, please don't mind me, go about your normal duties,” I chirped. They seemed uneasy at first, but then they all felt somewhat relieved as they went about their activities.My eyes gazed across the room as I carefully inspected for cameras. There were four in total, one at the front, one at the back, one by the three huge freezers, and one at the center of the kitchen. It was no good; I knew it would be heavily guarded, but I really had
Alpha Leo's POVI knocked on the door and, with no response, it became certain that she was in. She raised her eyes and met mine as she unplugged the earpiece from her ears.“Duh? You knocked. I ignored the next cue, which was for you to leave. Why were you in my room anyway?” Dora asked. I felt irked at her words; it sure was not what I had expected to hear, but perhaps it was not new to me in any way.“I don't have time to dawdle with you. Where is Mom?” I asked almost immediately. I hardly came to Dora's room, but I had not found my mother in her room. That was the reason I was here. My eyes moved across the room, and I fixed them back on Dora.“I don't know where she has headed to, but she took that girl along with her,” Dora answered, and it got me confused. That was not the exact response I expected. Mother hardly took people along with her, although she loved driving.“Who do you speak of?” I asked, raising my eyebrows.“Who else could it be? Of course, it's the wannabe fiancée
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
