Daniel's POV

The ball turned out to be more elegant and rowdy than I expected. The hall was filled to the brim, gentry men and women, dressed their very best. The low chattering noises among the woman and the soft clinking of champagne glasses added life to the bubbling atmosphere.

The band members did their job well, seducing all ears with serenading waltz music—the kind that soothes the nerves and relaxes the soul.

I loved the imagery, men and women holding hands, and jibing in slow movement to the music.

There was doubt that I looked handsome, my black tuxedo suit giving me an exquisitely unique look. I had my hair fixed specifically for the occasion and that was all there could ever be—Regalness and Charm.

"Alpha Daniel," a voice called behind me the instant the dance session was over and I turned around to behold Lunar Adelia of the Moonfyre Pack.

"Hello Ma'am," I greeted and she bowed respectfully.

"May I have the second dance?" She asked politely, stretching her hand t

    Abigail's POV I blinked, staring at the cloud. It was a bright, sunny morning and I could feel the peace already radiating inside of me. Something soft touched my side and I dragged my eyes down. It was a tail. Tracing where it came from, I was surprised to see it came from me.Realization quickly dawned on me and I scrambled up from where I lay. I was in my wolf form. My furs were pretty just like I know they'd be. I jumped all over in happiness and slowed down when I saw a little pup by my side.He looked at me with shiny eyes, there was no way I could miss the hope gleaming in those depths. I howled and he followed suit.My heart threatened to pull out of my ribcage because I immediately knew who this pup belonged to. He was mine... My son.He rubbed his head against my legs and I smiled. He was cute, really cute, and all mine.We took a walk exploring the brightness and unusual calm of the day. It was so peaceful and quiet that I wanted to stay here forever. I was wrong to think

    Confessions. Abigail's POV. Two Days Later,I stared at the mirror on the wall but my eyes blazed in confusion. My eyes were very red, and I didn't understand what was happening to me, "if she knows that she will be a thorn in the flesh, why the hell did she agree to do this?" I had a few people discussing. I was tired of being amid gossip. After my interaction with Alpha Daniel that day, we managed to reach a consensus: I didn't go near his surroundings so that I didn't incur his wrath. "Yeah, I know. It's not always easy for people to eat their cakes and have them. She wants both of both worlds, but it won't work." I couldn't place the exact owner of The voice, but I inched closer to the door, ensuring that I made no sound as I crept stealthily. My eyes were rolling in my head, seeing that I gave a lot of thought to this. Footsteps echoed as they became nearer. I waited no time in rushing to my bed and acting like I was asleep. The person chuckled as soon as they opened the d

    The Confession. Daniel's POV. Her face haunted my head and I couldn't wait to have a taste of her again. Her eyes flickered toward me with a wry smile. "Do you want me to change the way I look? That way you can get me out of my head." She replied and I chuckled. She was definitely going to look for a way to deflect from the reason I actually called her. "Come here," I commanded, using my Alpha's command.She struggled against my command but walked toward me with defiance in her eyes. "Are you sure that there's nothing you want me to do for you?" She whispered. I wanted something that she couldn't give to me. "Yeah..." "Which is..." "I want you in my bed," I stated and she jumped away from me. "You shouldn't act like I have a disease.""No way, I don't walk with people who are..." She stated and looked at me. "is there anything you want from me? I will get you other women who will help you out." "I don't want anyone. I want you in my life." I stated. I knew I was talking out of

    The Escape.Daniel's POV. Four Weeks Later, I blinked immediately and my arm touched an object. The usual warmth had disappeared. I felt for the bed and found it empty. This didn't make any sense to me one bit because this was something that I wasn't even expecting one bit. My eyes fluttered open softly and landed on the neatly laid bed. Where was she? "Where did she go?" I wondered after I saw that the room bore no traces of a person. Where the hell did Abigail go?"Alpha, your attention is needed at the pack hall." I heard Jake's voice call and I groaned as I stretched. These people never allowed me some time to rest. My relationship with Abigail had improved. I felt more happy than I had in a long while. I wasn't interested in having any conversation with people who only wanted a kid as though that was all there was to life. "Alright, then. Is there anything that you need to let me know?" I asked him. "Tell them to keep waiting. I have some things to take care of.""Yes, alp

    The Replacement. Author's POV. "The Alpha is on his way." Jedidiah heard a soldier speak and she sighed in fear. She had paid her dues so why the hell was he scouting around her Pack for? "Do you want me to faint? Why is he coming here?" She demanded from the soldier angrily who stared at her in confusion as to why she was acting this way. Her father has traveled so she had no one to back her up. It was going to destroy everything that she had in mind. "Make the rooms ready." "He's coming with his troops."What the hell? She muttered, rising from her seat angrily and trekking down the hallway softly. She was annoyed that he would come into the house with a method of making her feel like she was a dumb skull. It was time to prove himself wrong. Alpha Daniel alighted from his car as soon as it drove into the compound with annoyance on his face. They had connived to take Abigail away. "Tell your Alpha to come out and release her to me!" His voice boomed. A lot of people were jit

    The Visitor. Abigail's POV. A year Later,The Lotus Pack. "Mama...!" I heard the voice of my lovely son called to me as I returned from the library. I smiled as soon as I saw him approaching. My eyes were so fixated on him that I did not notice that I bumped into a stone. *Shit!* I muttered softly when I felt my bare skin touching the stone. I was bleeding and it was deep. "Mama..." He called again, stretching out of his nanny's arm, and I smiled at my son. Raine... It was just like yesterday when I gave birth to him. I realized that there was a lot I didn't understand when I birthed him, but now that he was growing rapidly I was so grateful that he entered my life. At his entry, my life turned around for good. Who would have imagined that I would get a pack when I would be loved, given a job that I loved, and also have utmost freedom, I dare say more than my former Pack? This was an insane privilege that I wasn't going to take for granted. I appreciated the day that I got preg

    Jealous ExesAuthor's POV. "Where did you say he went to?" Laurie demanded angrily from Gottfried with a loud voice."He went to the Lotus Pack." Gottfried answered, while gazing around to see if anyone would be present to capture him or the other. "Oh, really? What did he go there for?" "We can't ascertain yet but reports have reached me that he was seen interacting with a young woman who had blonde hair." Gottfried answered perfectly. Laurie was confused, was he cheating on her? This wasn't the first time that he was leaving and visiting Packs which she thought was just a matter of time before it ended but right now, it seemed as though his obsession with finding Abigail was getting stronger. "Take pictures of the lady and let me know who she is. I need a proper report on everything that she does, if not, I would not pay you. I believe you understand how this works by now, already?" She threatened. The man nodded in response, before walking away. Laurie paced the corridor in

    The Heir.Abigail's POV. "What are you doing here?" He demanded and I rolled my eyes. How bold of him to ask me questions as though I had done something to hurt him. He was the one who was supposed to explain why the hell he was here. "The question should be why are you here?" I replied angrily. "Oh, really?" "Yes, I don't know you, Alpha Daniel." I responded, trying to play it cool despite knowing that it was all a lie. He wasn't going to have my neck in hand or get me to do whatever I didn't want to do because of something like this. "That is my son you're holding, Abigail." "Who told you that?" I responded hotly. I knew that I was speaking to him as though he was an Alpha. "You have no right to come here and make claims! I will not take that. I'm no longer under your authority so take that energy somewhere else." I dismissed him. He looked like he was about to say something but stopped, instead he looked at Alpha Liam who was also glaring at him. I was happy because Liam wa

    Abigail's POV. "Look how far we've come, from beginning a family to planning everything as they are. It's been wonderful," Daniel spoke as he walked through the porch. "Is this what I think it is?" I inquired.He hugged me from behind and planted a kiss on my neck. "We've been able to conquer every opposition on our way, and that makes it very worthwhile. When last did you speak to your pack?" He asked."I don't know, they should be fine." I spoke while rubbing my belly softly. "Do you want me to get close to the pack?" He looked at me slowly and shook his head, "I want you to be done with all of them." I smiled at him. "I was thinking about merging the packs together." I told him. "We can do that." She replied, and I looked at him.We walked towards the balcony and overlooked the Pack. Things were really picking up. "Mom!" Raine called and we turned. "Rachel is troubling me!" He ran towards us and I rolled my eyes at him. I didn't think this was possible anyway. "Oh really?"

    Daniel's POV. "I can't find Raine!" Abigail's voice sounded with urgency that had me jumping up from bed and dashing towards the door before remembering that I had no clothes on. "He was here with Mace a few minutes ago but now she's telling me that he is nowhere to be found. I have searched everywhere but now my mind is going haywire. I don't know where he is." This was a mess. My eyes roamed across the room seeking an answer to my questions. "Call Macy, I need to speak with her." I replied and immediately switched to my mind link. This had to be done almost immediately. "Jake, tell me what I hear is not true. How the hell would my son disappear from the public eye when you were supposed to keep him safe?" I inquired angrily. "How far I am completely perplexed about the situation. Although I am already returning, I will send out some scouts so that we can get to the bottom of this issue right now." He reassured me. Something wasn't right, yet I couldn't place my finger on it. If

    Collaboration. "Are you the person I was supposed to meet?" Laurie inquired from a dark figure that shoved his hands into his pockets with his head bowed so that no one could figure out who he was. "This is not a perfect place to meet. You are only going to land me in more trouble. One of the basic reasons I have been wasting my time so far with you is because I believe you have something good for me. If you know that this request to see me will not yield anything fruitful, then we should both part ways and act as though we have never met." Laurie spoke.Alpha Liam gazed right and left looking for the perfect way to broach his subject without her disturbing him. He had a plan that would be brought to fulfillments if she was sensible enough not to disturb him one bit. "You should be very careful with words as they could break or make you. We are here for a common purpose, the best thing you can do is to be calm about it. I've heard how frustrated you are that your husband or boyfrien

    The Return. "Alpha, the pack is under fire." Jake told me and I turned towards him. "What do you mean by the pack being under fire?" I inquired from Jake who was staring at me like I had grown three heads.Jake probably thought that I was losing my mind with how calm I was instead of fidgeting at the way he was acting. "Abigail has arrived." He announced and looked at me warily as if expecting me to say something that he'd not like. This wasn't going to make any atom of sense to him whatsoever."Tell her to come in then, instead of just standing over there. I want to see my kid. Call Mace so that she doesn't miss this lovely opportunity." I instructed him. After discussing with him, he was still looking at me warily but I was less concerned about his stare. He was afraid of Laurie finding out that I had a kid but at this point too, I was also going to introduce her to the pack. My son wouldn't live as a fugitive and all that I want to discuss is finding a better way of dealing wit

    Sore Loser.Alpha's Liam strode out of Abigail's apartment with a glare on his face. Who would have imagined that she would turn down his offer after everything that he has done for her? Providing shelter, food and even a job when she was nothing but a rogue, and now she had the audacity to say that she wasn't in the mood for any relationship. Abigail on the other hand tried to stop him but he wasn't having it. This was one of the issues she had with a lot of men who felt like being helped had to resort into exchanging sexual favors. Alpha Liam threw a bottle of Chamdor on the floor causing it to shatter into pieces. She was an ungrateful b**** that needed to be repaid in her coin. How the hell did she suddenly define her taste after getting everything she wanted from him. Now he was a fool and that caused him more pain than he had ever felt in his life. He would never have expected that he would fall victim to such a thing. 'You have been fooled, Liam. This is the height of your f

    Back-and-forth.Abigail's POV."Raine... stop that." I called my toddler who was staring at me with a small smile on his face as though he knew what I was talking about. He was so intuitive and smart for his age that a lot of people were envious of him. "Are you sure this kid is almost a year old?" Daniel spoke over the phone when he had me calling him to stop moving his toys around. I nodded then realized that he couldn't see me. "Can't you switch to video calls so that you can see the extent of the mess he made and don't think that I am just making it up?" I inquired. A few seconds later I saw Daniel smiling at me. As though Raine knew that I wanted to video him, he stopped moving around and started smiling at me with a toothless grin."I think this boy is too smart. He knows that I wanted to show you what he was up to." Daniel's chuckle tickled my skin as I listened to his voice. "Are you serious? I was very mischievous when I was also little so I believe it is inherited. My mo

    BetrayedAuthor's POV. "Where are you coming from?" Laurie demanded from Daniel as soon as he returned home afterward. "You know better than to leave me here for a while yet return like I'm a piece of furniture." She demanded from him. Daniel paused as soon as he pulled the door open. "Good evening to you too, Laurie." He replied.Laurie refused to take his mode of speech seriously. He was only trying to gaslight her. "Do you realize that there is something wrong with us, Daniel? You don't care,do you?" She accused him but he didn't speak to her. "I am talking to you, Daniel. You won't turn me into a mad fellow! I'm trying to ensure that there is a semblance of order in the Pack but you're going ahead to do whatever you like. How does that even make any sense?" She accused him. Daniel was wroth yet considered their closeness. It was stupid for him to act all angry when it was something that they could just resolve slowly. "You are angry that I neglected you, which I apologize for,

    Heartfelt Apologies. Abigail's POV. Meanwhile on the other hand, I watched Daniel stroke Raine's head softly as he looked ahead to see what was happening. "Is something wrong with him? He's been sleeping too much." Daniel blurted in fear. "He's sleeping from the aftereffect of the medications." I answered him, chuckling softly as he was acting as though there was a problem with my son. "Are you scared?" He nodded, "Very. I can't allow any harm to come to him. This is very basic but I believe that we can still do something about it, you know?" "About what?" "Our situation. You can return home with me." He suggested. "Since when did your pack become my home? After I gave birth huh? You've not even ascertained if this kid is yours, assumptions kill you know?" I retorted. He had been acting all cool and kind to me since we met again but I knew how harsh this man could be so I wasn't buying it. Daniel ran a palm across his face tiredly. "Do you realize that I wouldn't be here if I

    Lonely Home. Meanwhile Jedidiah had managed to return home but was panting mercilessly as she went ahead to have a discussion. It was crazy that someone would be so interested in rubbishing her when she wasn't one of those girls. It was crazy but she would not take this one bit. Thankfully, Daniel was not at home and he didn't make it mandatory for her to remain in the Pack. It sent the wrong signal to her anyway. What the hell was she thinking about? Didn't she know that he was cruel in the first place? She thought and shook her head.As soon as she crossed the threshold she felt that something was different yet refused to stall further, she headed into the house and was shocked to meet the love of her life smoking."James, what the hell are you doing?!" She fired at him but was greeted with a grin on his face. He had no single remorse whatsoever concerning what he was doing. For all he cared, she was only just acting out of point instead of doing what he should."Do you realize ho
