Olivia's POV

It 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 sniffed into the air and drew out a loud sigh. I had gotten quite frustrated already. First, they went about teleporting in and out of my room and then flowers, petty flowers which I was forced to accept. I hated it.I stormed out of the room and headed towards the balcony, I took a long breath of air and then decided to take a stroll, perhaps what I needed was to leave the mansion and get a breath of fresh air.I tucked my hands behind my back as I kept on with the stroll, I admired a lot of things about the pack, down from the children playing to the oldest ones, to the perfectly structured building, it was worthwhile though, everything seemed well, after all, this was one of the largest packs in the world.“Excuse me, miss Olivia.” a woman called out to me as I passed her by. I glanced at her confused at what she wanted, it certainly was not what I had expected, and it seemed like she knew that as well.“Yes, how may I help you?” I asked, curious about the woman, she

    OLIVIA'S POVSeeing how bewildered Lady Catherine was got me taken aback, and I realized I had done too much. I had lost my temper too much and said what I shouldn't have. She was staring at me with her mouth opened slightly and confusion filled her eyes. She seemed to have a lot to say, but she just kept quiet without saying a word and seeing that, I breathed in and out with my eyes closed as I tried to calm myself. I had lost my temper , and I needed to calm down if I wanted to make any sense out of my earlier actions. Lady Catherine stared at me without saying a word and I stared back at her, thinking of what to say until she finally closed her mouth and sighed. “I know things are difficult for you at the moment, you are going through a lot of pressure because of the wedding and all. I understand you must be exhausted with everything, so I will leave you. I think you need some space.” She said with a hint of sadness in her eyes and without waiting for me to reply, she opened th

It was already bad enough staying in the mansion with the fear of someone finding out about me, but I knew it would be worse living in the mansion when I knew someone already found out, and he could always tell them. The fear was overwhelming, the confusion wasn't helping either, and I knew I had to do something to keep the situation under wrap as I wasn't ready to get exposed just yet. Not even when my plan was yet to bring out any big result. With that in mind, I decided to just go and meet him. I would talk to him, settle the matter, and think about what to do next. The risk of someone knowing the truth about me and being close to the Alphas was something I couldn't afford to look away from. It was dangerous, way too dangerous, and not even at the moment when I was yet to have a full grasp on everyone in the mans

    OLIVIA'S POV I thought I was going to regret slapping her after I did, but strangely, I didn't. I would even love to slap her more and do something worse to her if she dared me. Dora's eyes widened as she touched her cheeks, she couldn't believe what just happened to her as she stared at me with disbelief in her eyes. She took a step back and closed her eyes, probably to wake herself up if it was a dream but, it wasn't, and I knew that more than anyone else. She shook her head, “You didn't just slap me, did you?” She asked with a weary frown on her face, she seemed to be asking me to tell her No. She found it hard to accept the fact that she was slapped when she was someone respected by many by being a family member of the Alphas. “If you are still in your right senses, then you should know the answer to that. Especially with your cheek so red and all.” I replied with a smug smile on my face. Her cheek was red, showing off my fingers that felt as if they were attached to her whit

    ALPHA LEO'S POV The first thing she did when we entered her room was yell at us, asking us whether we were there to yell at her or not. It was quite surprising, and it rubbed me the wrong way, but I decided to keep quiet as I could see that Theo was ready to reply to her. Theo glanced at me and nodded his head before returning his attention to her “We are not here to shout at you, Olivia, and I think you should be calm too.” He said, his voice was calm, but I could tell he was a bit annoyed too. Normally, a person yelling at us was a very big sin that could lead to great punishment but because Olivia was our mate, she got to get out with some things that would never have been possible to get out of. She looked at us without saying a word, her eyes fixed on both of us as if she were cautious of getting attacked even when we were standing a few steps away from her. Why was she like this? I wished I could ask her that question, but I knew she would never give me an answer. If there

I stood in front of Leo, my back turned against Olivia, “We need to stay calm, Leo. Nothing can be solved this way.” I said further. Leo looked at Olivia who was behind me and sighed, “Fine.

She keeps getting on my nerves. I wonder why she is our mate!” He grumbled as he sat down in his bed and crossed his arms. He was frustrated and so was I.

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

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.

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

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.

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

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
