BELLA

I 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

    DENVERI stood transfixed in my room. It had been a very terrible day for me. After everything Bella said to me, she appeared at my door. At first I wanted to bang the door in her face. She had insulted me so much, I didn't see the need to listen to her. But it was Bella.I could not find the strength to send her away. I assumed she was back to her senses.She walked into my room. As soon as I looked into her eyes, it was as though I had been hypnotized. I didn't know what Bella had over me. But it was strong. She went on to apologize. My eyes just stayed on her lips as she spoke.She didn't have to say much. I already melted. I thought everything was cool again until I tried to kiss her. What was the big deal in a kiss anyway? For someone who had hurt me so much in one day!Bella walked out on me! Trevor this, Trevor that. She even had the guts to say she was in love with Trevor. It then occurred to me that I was being too soft. If I wanted Bella, then I had to take her by force. It

    DENVERI couldn't believe I just got another problem on my hands.When does it ever end?Mara’s ally was suddenly interested in her whereabouts. She should have just ignored it. Why did she ask me? A common maid bombarding me with questions!I watched the maid as she hurriedly walked away. If only she knew it was her last day in the palace, maybe she would slow her pace.I sighed. I had to pause on thoughts of Bella. My new concern was getting rid of the maid. She seemed smart. I replayed our conversation in my head. She didn't ask if I knew Mara, she was sure that I knew her.I couldn't risk having her as a witness. Nobody in the palace knew I had been in touch with Mara. The maid was a loose end I had to tighten.I got up from where I sat. I noticed Trevor playing with his kids at the far end of the palace. I tiptoed quickly to avoid being seen. I didn't have the energy for a fun time with Trevor and his kids.I was sure he would ask me to join them. From there I would probably be

    TREVORThings were stable again at the palace. It gave me time to focus on other aspects of my life. I was able to focus on my family as well. As much as I knew troubles would always arise, I really hoped we would enjoy some calm…at least for a while.I had just concluded a meeting with the elders very early in the morning. I moved straight to my office for an online business meeting. That was also going very smoothly. However everything turned upside down when one of the guards barged into my office.At first I was thrown off. I wanted to lash at him for coming into my office in that manner. But the look on his face was as though he had seen a ghost. I signaled him to hold on a second while I concluded my meeting. Thankfully, we were rounding off the meeting already.I turned to him,“Whatever made you barge into my office like that had better be worth it. Or else…,” I said, looking at him.He nodded frantically, “I'm sorry, Alpha,” he said bowing.“Go on,” I said, eager to know wha

    DENVERI felt like I was standing close to a furnace. I became very uncomfortable as soon as I saw the patrol guards in the palace. My heart began throbbing. Beads of sweat formed on my forehead. It felt like my legs could no longer carry me. I blew air from my mouth as I gripped the edge of my table.Things were really going in the opposite direction.I was unable to sleep the previous night. I narrowly escaped being caught. I kept thinking of the consequences for my actions. The more I analyzed it, the more I became more determined. I had to do whatever it took to avoid being caught.I watched everything from my window. I picked their words from where I stood. The patrol guards had come to alert Trevor of their findings. But I needed to be sure if they recognized me. I saw them follow Trevor to his office for more information.I made up my mind there and then. If they somehow had an inkling who I was, I would kill them. I didn't care how many lives I had to take. I definitely wasn't

    TREVORI grabbed a bottle of wine from the freezer. Then I stepped out to sit in the garden to clear my head. Bella had gone out earlier to shop for some accessories for a collection she was making. She had promised to return early. I waited patiently as I needed to discuss some burdening thoughts with her.My thoughts drifted to the recent happenings in the palace. We seemed to move from one challenge to another. I felt a shiver run through my body as I remembered that Mara was dead. Just like that! Images of her crossed my mind. Those moments when she pulled different stunts before I sent her away from the palace.Investigations were ongoing about Mara’s murder. It hurt really bad that Mara was dead and no one knew. If the killer had not murdered the maid, it would still be unknown until now. I shook my head, trying to push off the image of her in that shallow grave. Her killer was really heartless. Of course she had been terrible to me, but she didn't deserve such shame.The though

    DENVER.Trevor finally agreed to continue with the event. I sniffed as I got on my feet to see how things were going in the hall. My heart swelled with satisfaction as I saw my plan was working.I checked to see what was happening with the guards. I then realized that Trevor’s chief security officer was down too. In fact, he was nowhere to be found at that moment. The guards leaned on the wall, looking like they could faint any moment. They were extremely pale.I looked around for the remaining guards, “Where are the other guards?” I asked the one standing closest to me.“They are too weak to stand guard. Alpha asked them to rest. They are in the guards’ chamber,” he explained, keeping a straight face.I shook my head, “Too bad,” I said, “I hope you are not feeling too weak?” I asked.“No, I'm okay,” he said, with a focused look.With the look of things, the guards who were even managing to stand would most likely retire shortly. They looked exhausted. I was sure they could not fight

    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
