"Are you hurt anywhere?" I asked my voice filled with concern. I could feel my voice trembling as I gently held onto her delicate shoulders. When I noticed that she wasn't hurt on any part of her body, ample relieve flowed through my veins at a steady pace. I was glad that no one came forward to stop me. Brian just watched us with a creepy smirk on his lips. His team waited for his command. They watched as I helped her settle her mother on her lap."I just knew you would come. And this is what I wanted all along. Now I can freely execute my plan not worrying if any one can come to save youu." I heard him mutter while his eyes focused far in the distance I don't know what he was looking at. I turned my gaze away from him and put all my focus on Charlotte who was still holding on to her mother.I wonder what he had done to them but I also knew that it wasn't the right time to ask. Her three brothers hurried to our side and held on their father who did not utter a single word upon our a
I looked upwards and felt a few drops of rain fall on my face. I turned to see the others using their hands to cover up their faces as the pit pattering sounds of the rain increased by each second. I hurried everyone to hide under the roof covering the entrance. We squeezed in and stood close to one another so that we could warm ourselves. The rain kept on going for about an hour. It was approaching night when it stopped. Clive and Trevor later joined us and the eight of us stood at the entrance of Brian's mansion to see if he would let us in. We waited for thirty minutes and gave up. He didn't even bother sending any of his men after us. I was sure that he noticed that we were at the entrance.After seeing that we had no roof above our heads we decided to make our way out of the city. Trevor looked for a phone and called for a taxi to take us back home. The taxi reached us after an hour and carried us back to Starrymoon pack. We had been away from it for almost a month and the enviro
CHARLOTTE'S POVTwo months laterMy stomach grew big in a matter of months but I wasn't safe from my insatiable beast. It was always after two days. Not that he kept to his words. Each day I felt his lovely torment, as we waited for our due pup. She is been trouble. People wonder how I got to know that our child is a girl.That's simple she is always making trouble and if you compare my pregnancy with Rachel's they are far from the same. At least Nett didn't cause her to do so much drama.I pity my mate. He has been dealing with the pack and me at the same time. Tolerating my mood swings and giving me immeasurable pleasure that I have been experiencing this past year."Charlotte!" I look at Marcy as she run to me leaving her mate with the four boys."Guess what.""... That we are feasting tonight.""Not that. Try again.""That mom is coming to visit us with her husband." I tried again."That has spread already. Alright. I'm pregnant.""What? How?""The same way you got that huge tummy
Mason carried me in his arms as he headed torwards the pack hospital. We passed a dozen houses and arrived at the emergency room. Every one made way for us to pass as the pack doctor appeared right away. She made the bed as I was laid on it. She examined me to see if everything was alright. And the time I had been dreading was about to begin.MASON'S POV I was by her side as she screamed to let our little pup out. She gripped my hand as she cussed at me and our gem. She was sweating a bucket as she heaved and growled if it hurt too much. She whimpered saying she couldn't do it any more. But I kept encouraging her to go on. Which earned me more cusses as she held my hand tight as if she wanted to break it apart.This went on for almost twenty four hours. I painfully continued to watch as tears filled her face. Her forehead sweating a lot.It was after a long drag as we all hear our little pup cry loudly and as my mate collpsed from exhastion. Our little gem reached for the two of
CHARLOTTE'S POVRaising children is no joke. I repeat raising children is no joke.You must be wondering why I am saying this. Well, it's because my dear daughter won't let me sleep at night. During the day she spends it sleeping in her small crib looking so cute and behaving just like an angel. Come midnight when I want nothing but to close my eyes and let my imagination run wild, that's when she opens her tiny cute little eyes and mouth, wreaking havoc in my life.I have to wake up from twelve O'clock to attend to her each and every night. I have to feed her milk and change her pamper. I also have to coax her to sleep. If she didn't feel like sleeping she would cry her heart out, making sure that no one was to sleep as well. Sometimes I have to stay up the whole night looking after her especially when her body heats up in the middle of the night. Fortunately, being a werewolf, fever or any sickness doesn't affect her too much.During the day I had to worry about changing her clothe
"Alex don't burp on your grandma," I warned my daughter knowing very well that she couldn't understand a word I was saying. She just smiled at me and then turned to face her grandma while continuing to play with her. I had just fed her and all the milk she had taken in had not been fully ingested yet. However, the little angel just couldn't wait to play with her favourite person at all. Whenever she sensed her close to her she would cry while raising her cute little hands in the thin air.Rebecca also couldn't stay away from her granddaughter. They had a strong bond that could not be broken. Alex was also like that to Nelson and just the two of us. With other people, she was too picky to be held by anyone. If she didn't feel a connection with the said person she would bawl her eyes out, tears continuously falling on her cheek. If one of us goes closer to her and kisses her on the cheeks or forehead only then would she be silent.While we were relaxing in the sitting room, Mason was in
Almost a year has passed since Alex's birth. And she could now walk and speak a few words like mommy and daddy. She also grew to resemble Mason but she also had a few features that she took after me. Like the colour of her hair and her lips. She looked very cute and quite lovely. Being a werewolf, she has grown faster than a normal human. She was still small but her height was taller than the human kids I have seen while visiting their town. Alex couldn't shift yet however she had a long time ahead of her. Talking of Marcy, she gave birth just two months after me. She had a cute little boy who was loved by the twins just the same way they loved Alex. Alex is also happy to have someone to play with. These days we can spend a few moments of our life not worrying about anything else. A day ago Mason asked me to go on a date with him. It has been a long time since we have been out all alone. I am very excited about this. Marcy offered to babysit her. And with no responsibility in our han
THIRD POVA litter of pups could be seen playing on the carpet. There were a total of six as they played with the chess pieces the adults had used. Some put them in their mouths and saliva dripped on the wooden pieces that the adults had put aside after a round of chess game.Their parents were close watching over them. Sitting on the sofa as they relaxed each with their loved ones. They were on the balcony relaxing from all the tiresome work that they had to do during all those working days. "Little one look at those six. They are having lots of fun. It is great that we are spending the holidays with the family." Mason murmured to his mate who was leaning on his shoulder as she played against Marcy who was also leaning on the other's shoulder. Mason loved holding onto her as she played like this. He had now come to terms with the relationship with Marcy and her mate. He felt proud when he heard that his parents finally agreed in accepting Marcy. He didn't want his sister to feel unlo
After the honeymoon of our daughter and Adam, the vampire lord who chose to leave everything behind and chase after his love, ended, the two returned home to see everyone. A party was thrown in favor of their union. Everyone was present there, Adam even invited some of his vampire friends. The two parties bonded well. No one could see any slightest enmity between the vampires and the werewolves. We were one happy family. No one treated anyone differently. We ate together and also drank together. Rebecca later came with her husband, Nelson and Ace didn't go back after the wedding they stayed behind and kept us company. They were very close as usual. Ryder, Damien, Jasper, and Blake had a good time playing together. They spent almost every night drinking and partying at one corner of the pack.Saya and Clive also came to the wedding however they left after it was done and returned for the party. Same with Trevor and his chosen mate. It was merry all around and people couldn't sit still
"Ok. I let it go. Only this time. But if you make her cry even for a little bit. I will definitely come after you." I breathed out a sigh of relief and thanked him with a happy smile on my face. My brothers were happy for me as well. We had a family meal and then they gave us some time to talk to each other. We were allowed to go to my room, Adam looked around just like me when I visited his house. He complimented my room and took me in his arms and hugged me tightly as if we had separated for a long time.I was reminded of that dream and also held him tight just the same. "I love you so much." He confessed making my heart melt. I thought back to all the times I wished for someone to say this to me. Now that the time has come it seems so surreal. I just can't believe it. It's like a dream come true. "I love you too," I spoke of the words that I have just realized after meeting this man. He made me believe. He made me say it to him without holding back. I truly meant this. I don't know
After breaking the kiss, our eyes were locked on each other, the scarlet colour and oceanic greenish coulor reflecting in each other. I watched as he licked his lips, his pink tongue with a tich of red colour. "Wow. I can't wait to have the main with." He spoke while bringing his other hand to put my hair back in order. He arranged some behind my ear and gave me a perk on the lips and another one on my cheek. "I made the right choice waiting for you sweetheart. I can't imagine losing you to those vile creatures. I am the luckiest person in the whole world." I felt my cheeks hit up. This wasn't enough but it would be too fast to get into it right away. I leaned into his arms and rested my head on his shoulder. I took in his refreshing fragrance as if I was standing in the middle of a field full of blooming flowers. It was too exquisite and good to take in. Adam also rested his head on the nook of my neck, his nose was sniffing there, hot air brushing there, making the sensitive skin ti
After locking myself in the room, I lay on the bed looking far up at the ceiling above thinking of ways that could convince him to have a proper talk with me. I wasn't going to give up on him. I listened in from the wall just beside my head but I couldn't hear anything from the other side. I guess he was really sleeping. I ended up sleeping as well, hoping to talk to him early in the morning before he gets a chance to run away from me. As planned I woke up at about four O'clock in the morning and cleaned up before waiting for him in front of his room. I only waited for less than an hour before he opened the door after freshening up. His hair was still dripping wet and he had tied it on one side letting it flow on the shoulder as some fell on the front of his chest. He still wore his mask, probably in an attempt to continue hiding his face from me. He stilled the moment he saw me standing at his door, with a grin on my face. I hurried to put my hand on the door frame, stopping him from
Two days passed after that miserable encounter. And I haven't felt like I am being myself at all. My life has turned normal. It is now that I realize that normal is a boring word. My mind keeps on going back to those words he spoke upon our separation. I feel somewhat guilty for pushing him like that. Even though I didn't see his expression, I could actually guess how he looked. If we meet again, I will definitely say sorry to him. That is if I even recognize him. He had worn a mask all the while I spent at his home. He didn't even let out a clue that led to his name or anything. I don't even know what he really is. These days I have been listless because of this matter. My family noticed but there is nothing they could do about it. I never tell them what is wrong with me. I am going to school today, hopefully, by seeing Will I will be able to cheer up again. I was driven to school by Steve. He dropped me off in front of the school gate. I had texted Will telling him that I will be a
"Hmm... you can't believe me? Well, I knew it would be like this. That is the reason I made sure to prepare beforehand." I watched him summon one of his people who came with an envelope which she handed over to the strange man. The girl didn't even look at me. So I didn't really get to see her appearance only that she was wearing black and also that her skin was too pale for my liking. And as usual, I couldn't decipher her own species. I moved my gaze away from her and settled them on the envelope in his hand. I wanted to see what was sealed inside it. He ripped the seal off and then took a few pictures out and handed them over to me without even looking at them. It was as if he had looked at them countless times. I accepted them and started looking at them one by one, my breath hitching when I realized what these pictures were. I wonder who had taken them. During those days I never sensed anyone following me. No, maybe I didn't even look to sense anything. These were the pictures of
A part of me was excited, my blood ran around my veins some rushing to my head. I could vividly picture his face in my imagination. I wished to turn around and see his face. Another part of me was very scared. I knew that this man was very dangerous. And also that he was here for my life. If not why then would he waste his time watching my every move each and every day? "No, I guess you are not that scared. Then are you... Perhaps happy to see me?" He asked, his figure appearing right in front of me. He was too close, I could actually see his pale white skin that he poorly hid behind the mask. I didn't get to glimpse into much detail because he had already taken a step back. My brain had not registered the last sentence he had spoken. I then recalled it and blushed lightly before hiding it not wanting this stranger to see. I didn't bother saying a single word to him. My mouth remained zipped. I didn't forget to keep on trying to move. I was sure that he had done something to me."Why
"Mom, I... I am only seeing its blueness. There is no cloud up there, or even a bird flying up there. Why do you think it's different from the other days?" I couldn't help but ask her. She faced away from it then turned to look at me. She had a smile on as she patiently explained her point of view."Hmm, it's different because this is another day. It's not the same as it was yesterday. It does not matter if there were clouds up there or not. The sky of today will never be like yesterday. The same applies to us, Alex. I know that you are still anxious about what happened four days ago in the forest but that was then darling. Leave it behind and brace yourself and face this day with a smile. I know that there might be some looming danger out there but you don't have to be afraid of it. Do you hear? Don't beat yourself too much. You will definitely get the answer in the end." After she was done talking she stood up and took a few steps before stopping in front of a flowerpot on the sidewa
While going back I bumped into Steve who was about to see my parents. He looked haggard I don't know what was wrong with him but I knew that the news he was going to deliver to my parents wasn't going to be good. He didn't even bother to say sorry or to reply to my greetings for I was already knocking on their door. He didn't even give himself time to stop and take a breath, his knuckles were busy colliding with the door making loud noises probably alerting mom and dad who were discussing about my situation. I didn't stay too long to see him continue harassing the door for I returned to my room and took a glass of water before downing it down my stomach.At first, I was nervous to tell them about this matter but now I feel somewhat relieved that I am no longer the only one who knows about this. However, the anxiety hasn't worn off for there is a difference between many people knowing this and actually getting out of the mess. It would have been better if the one behind this is caught.
