DENVERAgain, Trevor ruined my attempt to snatch his life.Right before my eyes, my attempt to drown Trevor was turned into a joke. I was both infuriated and disgusted. How could he ask me to join him for a swim? I didn't want it to look like I was angry. So I jumped into the river.I managed to swim for a few minutes. Then I got out of the water, “Hey Alpha. I need to get some sleep,” I said, coldly.“Of course! You have never liked swimming,” he said, laughing.I shook my head. How did I forget Trevor was a good swimmer? It was dumb of me to think Trevor would drown so easily. My mind must have been clouded with bitterness and hate. So much that I couldn't think straight, “I need to get some sleep. You can enjoy the water all you want,” I said.“Yeah. I'll still be out here for a while. I'm taking souvenirs home to my family, remember,” he said and dived deeper, under water.Fuck me!I wiped the water from my face and walked back to the fire. I sat quietly in front of the fire and w
DENVERI went with Trevor to play table tennis. We had just concluded the game when I began making moves for my next attack. After Trevor barged into my room and dragged Bella, I had become even more determined to take him out. Bella in my room that day, chatting so freely made me realize that Bella and I could happen.From the time we spent together, I felt she was actually interested in me. Or why did she come all the way to my room just to say she was glad to see me? It could only mean one thing. Bella liked me. She was just keeping her cool because she already belonged to Trevor.And I was going to fix that problem soon.I watched as Trevor gulped down a bottle of water. He seemed so happy and free. Like he had life figured out. And here I was, suffering from bitterness. I couldn't be happy until Trevor was out of the way.I straightened up when I saw him walking towards me, “I'm leaving for the palace. Are you ready to leave?” he asked, looking down at me.Trevor had such a tall
DENVERI woke up with a splitting headache. It seemed like I saw Mara in my sleep. She said something about me killing her and not being able to achieve anything afterwards. It was probably my imagination. I had been beating myself up lately.Maybe Mara was better at this than I was. Truth is, Mara would have killed Trevor or any target if she had half the opportunity I had with Trevor. But here I was, unable to kill someone who did not even suspect me. Wasn't it supposed to be easier?I got up from my bed and went straight to the bathroom. I washed my face and dipped my head in water. By the time I was done, water was dripping down my body, soaking my shirt. But I did not mind. I was losing my sanity. And everything pointed to the fact that Trevor was still in the palace. He was still alive.I decided to try another way. If I couldn't kill Trevor, maybe I could dethrone him. There had to be a way to make him lose his place as Alpha of the pack. Maybe I could find something incriminat
DENVERAgain, I was back to the option of killing Trevor. It didn't matter if he married Bella or not. It was obvious he didn't want to make that move immediately.The longer Trevor stayed, the riskier it was for me. If he discovered I was interested in Bella, my head could go for it. His existence drew me closer to losing everything. I had tried different options, including pressuring him to marry Bella.Trevor’s reaction the last time I talked about Bella wasn't funny at all. His switch was unexpected. I had planned to pressure him into getting official with Bella. Instead, it yielded a negative result. Apparently, he felt I was getting too concerned about his marriage affair.I finally settled for poisoning Trevor in the palace. There was no need to wait until we could go hunting.I went to the forest later in the evening. I settled for a poisonous fruit, known to kill very fast. As soon as I found it, I plucked just enough for my mission. If I could get Trevor to consume it, that
DENVERThe rogues held me down and forced me to sit on the ground. I objected with a frown. One of them removed the hair I was wearing and threw it away. I gasped as I looked at him with disgust. I shook my head, I should have been more careful.Again, I was in another stress situation because of Trevor. I was held down by rogues. I wasn't even sure of my fate. What exactly would their boss do when he finally came out? “Why do I feel like you are a spy? Who sent you?” One of the men asked.“No one sent me. I came here for business,” I said looking from one to another.“Then why the disguise? If you are here for business, you should just come as you are,” another stated.“I did not want to be seen. I had to protect my identity. Why these questions though? Why would I want to spy on you?” I asked, irritated.“I should be asking you that,” the same guy responded, “You came into our territory disguised as a woman and you expect us to just let you go? That's impossible,” he said.I turned
DENVERThe evening was looked like every other one. The palace had its usual bustle that always occured before the night calm. I spent the most part of my day playing with the twins. I asked them to draw an image of me each. Since their father would be dead soon, it only made sense that I formed a bond with them.They went back to their room later in the evening. That gave me some time to prepare for the riot that was bound to happen. I had gotten words form the rogues. They said the riot would hold in the evening, when Trevor would be around. I gave them my word as well, that he would definitely be around.I had plans of twisting things in my favour. I only needed to be sure at what point exactly Trevor would step out. All I had to do was pass the information to the rogues. Once they saw him, they would take care of him.After a while, I began hearing noises at the far end of the community. There were violent shouts and war songs. I rushed out of my room and found my way to the rooft
DENVERI kept following Bella until we got to the road. The riot was in full bloom and more people had joined. I turned to Bella,“You can still change your mind,” I said.She scowled at me and proceeded across the road. Just then a truck sped towards us and stopped abruptly in front of us. I was shocked when four masked men jumped down from the back of the truck. They came straight for Bella and I. Before I could say anything, we were in the truck already, squeezed into the back seat.I knew immediately that it was the rogues. They tied our hands immediately.But why were they so foolish? Didn’t they know Trevor? In what way did Bella and I look like Trevor? Bella became restless. She was pushing and kicking, “Who are you! What do you want?” she yelled.I was torn between shouting at the rogues and pretending to be confused. I couldn't let Bella get the slightest hint that I knew who they were.I decided to act like I was confused and at at the same time communicate to them,“What do y
BELLAI didn't see why Denver would speak to me the way he did. I went out to stop a riot so what? Why was he acting like I did the wrong thing? I gave him a piece of my mind and warned him never to raise his voice at me again.After talking to Denver, I checked on the kids. I had promised to take them shopping if they remained in their room until I returned from a very important assignment. I was pleased to see them wrapped up in different activities. Craig was painting. While Cara was braiding her doll’s hair.They jumped on me the moment they saw me. At the end, we picked a date for the promised shopping.I left their room and went in search of Trevor. I found him in his study, deep in thoughts. I hesitated before walking in. From the look of things, I could tell that Denver had told him I went out to the riot. I went straight and took a seat opposite him. He didn't even bat an eyelid. He just sat staring at the wall.“Trevor…” I called.He turned to look at me. Then turned back to
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
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
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
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
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
