His Second Chance Mate 32
TREVORI left Mara’s room with more doubt than I had before going in to see her. I was not at peace with her complaint about being sick. For someone who had been so energetic, ready to fight the whole world in the morning, it was quite difficult to believe she was ill by midday.I knew how crafty and desperate Mara could get when she wanted something. Hence, I had Casper trail her to know her whereabouts. I was not shocked when Casper told me she had gone into the woods at night, despite reporting sick.I held onto that piece of information, albeit I feigned ignorance when I went to her room to get the urine sample the next day.She responded to me still acting sick, “How are you feeling today?” I asked, deliberately.She held her head and gave me a sick face, “I feel sore and weak, all over my body. I haven’t left this room since yesterday,” she said in a very low tone.I was irritated by her incessant lies.She walked into the restroom and came out after some minutes with her urine

BELLAA smile curved on my lips as I thought of the swell time I had with Trevor. The laughter, the talks, the jokes, everything. Trevor had put in so much to make me happy and it worked. The whole arrangement blew my mind, it was beyond my expectations.After seeing the result of Mara’s pregnancy test, I just lost my zeal. I felt really downcast. Although Trevor reassured me, it didn't help elevate my mood. I had reluctantly agreed to go on the date with him because I also needed to distract myself from the disturbing thoughts I was having.I was highly impressed when I realized we were having a picnic in a private park. I laughed hysterically when Trevor said he had a number of adventures planned and painting was one of them.I was all smiles as I walked towards my room but the smile on my face froze when Mara rushed out and stood in front of me. She looked like she was ready to devour her prey. I looked at her all the way down, shook my head and moved in another direction, “And whe

TREVORThere was so much chaos in the palace with Mara in it. She had taken up the duty of pissing Bella off and I hated it. I did not bring Bella to the palace just so she could get insulted by some runaway lover trying to force her way into my life.The incessant troubles were getting to me and I wanted more than anything to put Mara in her place but if she was pregnant, it was expedient to treat her with some calm, at least until I was clear on the matter.Deep down, I knew Mara was not pregnant for me. There were no signs whatsoever that she had my seed in her. However, I was ready to take it slow, one step at a time. It was as though she was deliberately frustrating my efforts to make Bella happy.I returned to the house with Bella. I was glad I had been able to make her happy. Next, I went straight to meet Cara and Craig. While tucking them in, Cara had insisted I placed her on my chest before she would fall asleep. In the process, I dozed off in their room.Suddenly I began he

MARAI waited patiently for my cousin to return with news of how the meeting went. I had sent her to spy on Trevor and the elders, so she could tell me what was going on.A few minutes later, she knocked on my door. I rushed to open it and let her in, “What's the update?” I asked, searching her face.“I don't know how you would take it but…” she began, making me impatient.“Go straight to the point!” I yelled, causing her to jolt.She nodded, “There was an argument about having two Lunas or just one..,”“Yes?” I asked, impatiently.“According to what I heard, the practice of having two Lunas ended a long time ago,” she said and looked down, “Besides, Alpha Trevor never had plans of making you a second Luna,” she said in a rush.“Damn that mean bastard!” I said stiffly, “What else did you hear?” I asked running my hands through my hair.“Some of the elders believe you are the best for Trevor, but he canceled all such opinions. He insisted that Bella is his only Luna and she has given h
His Second Chance Mate 36
TREVORWith a disdainful glance I stared at Mara, then I strode out of her room. Her pregnancy claim was obviously an act. I could see through her lies and it was suffocating.I went to my room and grabbed on a clean shirt. With a sense of urgency, I drove off to the hospital. I wanted to be sure that the pregnancy test was truly positive. What if there was a mistake? I couldn't bring myself to believe Mara was actually pregnant for me. I had warned her of the consequences of lying but she still maintained she was carrying my baby.My heart felt heavy with doubt and worry as I found my way to the doctor’s office. I was disappointed again as the doctor said the test was really positive. I let out a breath of frustration as I thought of a way out. I told the doctor I would like to crosscheck with another test. He nodded as he shook my hand, “I'm ready whenever you are, Alpha Trevor,”I nodded and left the hospital.On getting to the house, I went straight to Bella's room. I turned the k

MARAI paced in the waiting room. Trevor had said he would contact the cleaners to tidy up the restroom since I was unable to flush. But where did he go after that? I waited and waited, there was no trace of him. I called his number, it was not reachable. I finally got tired of waiting and left.I didn't want to be too hopeful, but I felt like I was making progress with Trevor. He asked me to take a walk with him and accompany him to the hospital! That was quite a leap.I thought of how calm he was all through. Surely, Trevor still felt something for me. If only Bella did not barge into his life, he would have been very happy to receive me.I called my partner to give him the update. Whatever was happening between Trevor and I was too exciting to keep to myself.“What now?” his voice came harshly on the phone.I sighed, “Good evening to you too,” I greeted.“What is it this time? We were supposed to meet yesterday and you stood me up. Now you have the audacity to call and talk like no
His Second Chance Mate 38
TREVORI got the test result from the two doctors and both were negative. I couldn't wait to reach Bella and tell her the good news. I was so happy that I did not lose her in the process. I was filled with so much joy.I rushed home to Bella. She was eagerly waiting for me to hear the results of the test. She was pacing in her room when I walked in.She turned to me, “Oh Trevor,” she called holding my hand, “How was it?” she asked, searching my face.“Relax, Bella,” I said looking into her eyes.“Tell me already, what’s the result?” she asked in anticipation.I pulled out the test results from my pocket,“Mara is not pregnant,” I said with a smileShe jumped on me, and kissed me fully on the lip. I burst into laughter as I held her ass and pushed her higher on my body, “She was fucking lying to us all this while,” I said looking at Bella.She sighed and wrapped her arms around my head, pulling me to her chest. She planted a kiss on the top of my head, “I'm so relieved,” she said.“Me t

BELLAMy eyes were dilated in shock as I stared at Trevor. The switch was like the speed of light, I did not expect it. At first, I did not comprehend what was going on, I thought Trevor was still playing along, but even at that, Trevor was not one to play to that extent.I knew something was wrong when he walked up to Mara and touched her face.Trevor touched Mara's face, seductively!My heart pounded heavily. Fear gripped me, causing me to shiver. I knew then that something was definitely wrong with him. I didn't know what exactly but I just had to intervene. I thought it wouldn't get any worse until they were about to kiss!He stared at Mara lazily and she was completely enjoying the show, there was no shock on her face at all. Then I knew she had a hand in what was going on with him. With an adrenaline rush, I lunged towards them to stop the kiss. It took a loud shout and a push on the shoulder to awaken Trevor back to reality but even that was not enough.Mara pushed me to the fl

TREVORI rushed Bella to the hospital. The weight of everything Bella went through affected her heavily. As soon as we got to the hospital, Bella was put in a coma. I stayed by her side for a bit and rushed back home to see my kids.As soon as I got into the palace, the twins rushed out to me. A flood of emotion filled my heart. I crouched before them and embraced them tightly. I rubbed their heads and nuzzled them, “Where have you been daddy? We waited for you,” Cara said.“I'm so sorry baby. I was busy saving mummy,” I told them calmly.“Where is she?” Craig asked.“Is she in trouble?” Cara asked.“Mummy was in trouble. I saved her already. Now she is in the hospital,” I said, kissing Cara's forehead, “How are my babies doing?” I asked,“Did you miss me?” I asked, looking into their faces.They nodded but their faces turned worried immediately as they looked at me, “What happened to your face?” Craig asked, touching my face.“Here too,” Cara touched my arm.“I got in a very serious fi

TREVORI watched Bella rush towards Denver. I wasn't sure what exactly she had in her mind but when I saw her get close to Denver, I knew something was about to happen. She pushed him. I watched as he turned around and gave Bella a heavy blow. She fell to the ground and became static. I wanted to rush to her side but Denver was coming right at me.I was furious, seeing that Bella did not move at all. The fact that Denver had hit her so bad. It infuriated me that he would put her in that state. I was livid. He was supposed to face me, why Bella?Running to her was not the best decision at that moment. I had to be cautious. I could not let my guard down. I also could not let my emotions control my actions. If I could take out Denver, then I would be able to save Bella afterwards.I had intentionally spent time listening to Denver and engaging him in all that talk. It was very timely, giving me time to gather my strength. I was shocked at the length Denver went just to have his way. I t
His Second Chance Mate 97
BELLAI coughed, trying to catch my breath. I was horrified at the thought of Denver marking me. I could not just allow him to sink his evil teeth into me. I was extremely disgusted at Denver for everything he had done. His presence repelled me. I could not believe I had once trusted such a devil.I was losing my strength. It was taking too long for Trevor to arrive and I was tired of fighting. I felt him reaching for me. I felt his presence stronger and stronger but he was yet to show up. When Denver said he was going to mark me, it was as though I should scream Trevor's name.I was also careful not to let Denver know Trevor was coming. If I made it known that I had felt his presence, Denver would know I felt him from our mate bond. He would then ambush and kill him before he could save me. I knew better than to reveal anything to him.From the things he said, I found out he had planned to kill Trevor. The gunshot at the palace was not a mistake, neither was the idea of the rogues. I
His Second Chance Mate 96
TREVORI sprang up from where I was sitting. I had secured Bella's location using our mate and her scent. I could hear her screams. I could feel her fear from the sound of her voice. I was angry with myself for not thinking of using our mate bond since.I was running out of time. I could feel Bella's energy depleting. Her voice was becoming faint and it scared the hell out of me. I called out to Kasper and he showed up immediately. Together, we went in search of Bella.My heart was thudding heavily against my chest. I had an extreme height of desperation. It caused me to feel uneasy. I ran at a high speed, with my men following behind. The mate bond which I had struggled so hard to use was now in full bloom. I felt Bella's presence more than ever and it spurred me on.My mind was spiraling with different thoughts. Bella's face came into mind. I would never be able to forgive myself if something bad happened to Bella. I thought about all the moments we had shared. The sound of her lau

I stared at Bella as she lay on the ground. Her breath was ragged and she seemed to have bruised a side of her face. Her eyes blazed with fury as she stared at me. Whatever was going on in her mind, I knew she wasn't leaving the same.I went towards the window of the uncompleted building and scanned the area. I wanted to be sure no one was around. It was a highly secluded area and the building had been abandoned for years. Everything was covered in dust and no single person was around.I moved closer to her and placed my food on her rib. She winced as my foot made contact with her body, “I will not watch you insult me!” I said and applied pressure on her rib.She winced again and gritted her teeth. She looked up at me, shooting daggers from her eyes,“Get off me!” she roared.I turned to the rogues standing by and burst into laughter, “Did someone just raise her voice?” I asked in a mocking tone.They burst into laughter too. One of them said,“More like the whimper of a puppy,” he said

BELLASome things were unimaginable. And one of the highly unimaginable things was being kidnapped by Denver. How was it even possible that Denver was the enemy we had been looking for all along? I stared intently at him as he moved in circles, spitting gibberish.I had done my best to be friendly at the event. To me, we just had to make peace with the enemies since they were tired of the war. Little did I know it was all a ploy to perpetrate evil against Trevor and I. It all made sense, the sudden outbreak of diarrhea. Definitely some sort of poison had been served to weaken the guards.I thought of my situation in the palace when I was abducted. I didn't know if Trevor was alive or dead. I saw him fall to the ground after being shot. I was on my way to meet him when I was suddenly grabbed and lifted off the ground. In a bid to free myself, I lost my shoes and my phone.I had been unable to calm myself since the attack. What was happening to my children? I wondered what they were goi
His Second Chance Mate 93
TREVORI had gotten a lot of information from the rogue. Including the revelation of who my main enemy was. There was a very high chance that Denver was behind every disaster we had faced in the palace. I didn't want to draw conclusions until I found my wife.The rogue didn't know where I could find the kidnappers, but his partner did. He had been uncooperative, but I had to find a way to get the information out of him. He was my only link to finding Bella and capturing Denver.I walked over to him. He was stubborn as a mule. But at this point I had to do whatever I could to find Bella. If he could at least tell me where to find the rogues, it would be easier from there. I shoved him on the side and his body turned over. I bent down to whisper an irresistible offer to him, but I meant the shock of my life.He was dead.I gasped in shock as I stared down at him. Dead? What the fuck! It felt like the entire universe was working against me. My only lead to Bella's location had died! I ro

DENVERA surge of fury rose in me as Bella blatantly refused to profess love to me. I grabbed her by her hair, “Say it! Say you love me!” I yelled.“I do not love you!” she fired.I exhaled in frustration. My breath quickened as I turned from her. I began pacing. Bella was pushing me beyond my limit. I did all I could to hold back, “You have no idea what you are missing. I have put my life on the line for you, countless times. But do you appreciate it? No!” I exclaimed.I threw my head back with my hands on my waist. I thought of things I could do to make her succumb to me. I was overwhelmed with frustration, “I have shown you pure love. I have done so much to prove my love for you. Yet, you do not acknowledge me!” I shouted at her.She shifted and leaned on her limbs. I figured she was trying to take pressure off her knees. I moved over to her and made her kneel up. She winced and swore, “Serves you right, ungrateful bitch!” I cursed.Some of the rogues were standing around, watchin
His Second Chance Mate 91
TREVORI was livid. I wanted to squeeze life out of the rogues for coming to take Bella. Every second spent with them meant extra time for Bella in their dirty den. I had to intensify the torture. Time was running and I needed to find Bella as soon as possible.Kasper brought in my iron rod. It had turned red from excess heat. He handed it to me. I grabbed it by the handle and walked towards the rogues,“You punched me where it hurt the most. It's time to pay back!” I said, fiercely.I had seen fear in their eyes, especially the other rogues. But they didn't seem ready to talk. I didn't have time to play games. I was ready to kill anyone, if it meant finding Bella. I made up my mind to burn them if they refused to speak, I was willing to go the extra mile.As I moved closer, one of the rogues began trembling. I placed the iron at the hem of his pants. It began burning. He wriggled with a loud yelp, “I'll speak! I promise,” he cried out.He tried to push his chair backwards. In the proc
