ALARIC’s POV….“What the hell is she doing?” I couldn’t help but mutter, to Amelia’s hearing and she looked at me.She raised her brow, asking me what was wrong, but I shook my head, lying that it was nothing but I knew she wouldn’t believe me.She followed my gaze and that was when she realized what I had been paying attention to the whole time. She gasped as she took my hand off her mouth, and next thing I knew, she actually wanted to go to Ariana.I held her hand as I pulled her back, staring at her in shock. What on earth did she think she was about to do?“You’re going to land us in trouble, and what do you think will be done to you when they find you in the Alpha’s room, especially when they didn’t see you come through? Didn’t you say the people here didn’t really like you?” I whispered to her and she relaxed even more against the door as she stared at Ariana and Alexander from where we stood and I could see the anger building up within her.I shook my head and when I saw that A
AMELIA’s POV…I sighed as I stared at the ceiling. I wasn’t doing myself or my baby any good, I knew, but I just couldn’t help myself.Everytime I closed my eyes, all I could see was Alex laying on the bed and then Ariana walking into the room.It had been months. Months had passed and I thought I had managed to forget him, so what was this? Why was this happening to me, then? I groaned as I turned on the bed, placing my hand to my stomach.Damn Kevin. If only he hadn’t informed me about Alex’s condition. I wouldn’t be this worried and then have to worry Alaric too.“Amelia?” There was a knock on the door and I sat on the bed as the maid walked in.I smiled as I got off the bed. “Oh, it’s you.”She nodded as she walked in with the tray. “Lord Alaric has asked me to bring this to you.” She told me and I drew in a sharp breathe.“Tell him I’m fine and that he doesn’t have to worry.” That was all a lie. I wasn’t fine at all. Although Brooke wasn’t really reacting, I still worried for Ale
AMELIA’s POV….“Pardon?”He chuckled as he walked closer to me. “Honestly, I find your marriage very suspicious, especially as you didn’t do this ceremony, so….”“She won’t be doing any of those.” I heard someone say and turning, it was Alaric.The moment he walked in, he bowed before the man who had just said he was his godfather and I did too.“Amelia, this is Kendrick, one of my godfathers. GK, this is Amelia, my wife, and future mother of my children.” He said as he wrapped his hands around me and I bowed again alongside him as a sign of respect.“Your wife sure is not what I expected. How is she a hybrid, yet doesn’t know of the ceremonies that are to be performed to be fully….”“She didn’t grow up around here, as you may already know.” Alaric said and I looked down.It hadn’t really been an issue that I didn’t grow up here since I came here now, but that was probably because I hadn’t met the troublesome elders yet. This happened to be the first one and… I swallowed as I clenched
AMELIA’s POV…It felt like my heart got caught in my throat as I saw him standing at the edge, staring at me with what didn’t feel like anger, but surprise.“Alex?” I muttered as I felt my eyes start to water and just then, Alaric turned to me, worried, but I couldn’t focus on him. I just couldn’t help but stare at Alex as the gaze on his face changed while he started to walk towards us.As he got closer to us, Alaric took my hand as he put me behind him, standing in front of me, as firm as possible, as he put his hand in his pocket, to show that regardless, he would always be there for me and I couldn’t help but be in awe of how this man could still care for me even when his reputation was at stake.“Alaric….” He squeezed my hand in a way that showed that he got in and I swallowed as I looked down.I didn’t have a good feeling about this at all.Finally, Alex stood in front of us and I could feel the amount of fear and nervousness that I felt all at once. How was this happening? Was
AMELIA’s POV…My stomach felt tightened, I could still recall the pain my wolf was in when they were fighting, and I could remember passing out.“My baby!” I gasped as I jumped out of bed and doing so, I placed my hand to my stomach as I closed my eyes. My baby.Luckily, Alaric was in the room when I regained consciousness and he rushed to me as he held on to my hand and staring at him, I could see how bruised he was. Oh, goodness! Why’d he have to get in a fight with Alex because of me. It wasn’t like him.“Are you okay?” He asked me and I nodded as I sighed.He looked down to my hand and immediately knew what I was going to ask about next.“Alaric, my ba….” Before the words could leave my mouth, the door came open and of course, Alex walked in.The moment he did, my face dropped as I took my hand from off my stomach. He didn’t know about the baby and I didn’t want him to know about it, so I couldn’t ask about my baby while he was still here. He was also bruised, but I didn’t want to
ALPHA ALEXANDER’s POV…“Amelia!” His screams as he pushed her so we could take the blow for her filled my head and I got out of bed as I ran my fingers through my hair, my breathing increased as I buried my face in my hand.I drew in a sharp breathe as I shook my head. “Little breeche.” I muttered as I looked around and turning, I realized I was back at my pack.What was happening? How did I get back here? And my little breeche? What about her? What happened to her after that? Damn it!“Alpha Alexander, are you alright?” It was only then that I realized Ivan was in the room…. With Ariana. Seeing her, my face dropped as I clenched my fists.“What are you doing here?” I asked her, angrily.“It’s not so wrong that I care for you, is it? I mean, I…”“Getout.” I told her as I turned to Ivan, giving him a death stare. I didn’t need to say the words, he already knew what the death stare was for and he bowed his head as he apologized.I looked around, stared at the door, waiting for the one p
AMELIA’s POV…I covered my mouth as I hid behind the rock, tears streaming down my cheeks. I was scared, to the core, but I had to keep silent. I had been injured, and it hurt a lot, but then, when I looked towards Alaric, my heart broke into a million more pieces.He had taken so many blows for me and had even gotten hurt by a sword for me and sometimes, I wondered if just breaking a curse for him was worth all the trouble I put him through. Of course, it wasn’t, so why was he risking himself for me?I stared at his back and it was bleeding and more tears streamed down my cheeks. I traced my hand on to the wound and he turned to me.“I am sorry for all the trouble I put you through, Alaric.” I mouthed to him and he smirked as he turned back to be sure that we were in the clear.We had been hiding around for what felt like forever and I didn’t know why those things kept coming for me. What did they want from me?Thank goodness Lilly was fine. At least I didn’t have to worry about her
AMELIA’s POV…“D…die? If I die?” I got off the bed as I turned away from him. “You’re talking nonsense. Powers, me having to die for them, the…:” I looked down at my stomach, and then recalled Lilly. “I can’t die, no. You’re speaking rubbish. You must be mistaken. Your drugs must be getting to you.” I told him but even as I tried to convince myself with my words, I could still feel myself shaking from within.I felt like he was right and I could actually die if care wasn’t taken. I swallowed as I looked down at my stomach. What were these powers? I had always known something was off and I just didn’t have ordinary instincts that were able to detect when danger was looming, but I never really paid attention to that, and now, I had to die to be able to protect my child? What nonsense was that?He came behind me as he placed his hand on my shoulder. “Believe me, Amelia. More than anyone, I wish this is a lie because I know all you’ve been through, but it’s the painful truth. You have the
