CHAPTER 15 FREDA’S POV. I was in the office but it seemed like I wasn’t there. I was just occupied with the thoughts that I was going to meet my ex fiancé the next day. I was happy that I was finally going to sort things out, and end up getting married. My mind drifted back to Liam and I sighed deeply, I was feeling guilty. It’s been a long time since I treated his wound and yet, he still goes around doing a lot of things in the house to make me happy. Frankly speaking, I began to feel uncomfortable about the way he cooked and cleaned at home because I keep feeling like I’m bothering him the way I shouldn’t. He was a good friend, that I was sure of but I still couldn’t bring myself to trust him fully. Yeah, I trust him but not so much. I knew he was going through a lot, even when he tried to hide it from me. I knew that suffering from Amnesia wasn’t easy and that he would have asked himself the question of who he was severally. The fact that he tries to hide his pain from m
CHAPTER 16 Freda's POV. I woke up with my alarm ringing loudly. I tossed around the bed, but the moment i remembered that I was finally going to settle things with Darren, i quickly sat up, because I cherished Darren and i was madly in love with him. Yesterday night was different for me because I and Liam watched the movie together, and he didn’t sleep this time around. It made me smile Then I remembered that i was going to meet up with Darren. I really wanted Liam to go with me, but i know how weird it would look since it was because of Liam that I had issues with Darren. “How can I make Liam come without Darren reading meaning into it,” i wondered and my face lit up brightly the moment an Idea came to mme “A reconciliation party,” I said aloud, snapping her fingers in happiness, and my shoulder dropped when I thought about how to convince Darren about it. “No.....We aren’t even sure if we are going to sort things out between us, so the party would make things really weird,” i
Freda’s POVI looked back when I heard someone calling my name and was surprised to see Vivian standing there. “Thanks,” I muttered, and without saying much, I simply nodded and left. Vivian couldn’t believe what had just happened. She had expected me to be excited about her suspension and not to plead on her behalf, despite all the despicable things she had done to me. That moment confirmed it for Vivian – she realized that I had a heart of gold. Returning to my office, I reached for my phone intending to dial Liam’s number, but then I remembered that he didn’t have a phone. I made a silent resolution to get him one, but only after I had resolved everything going on between Darren and me. I couldn’t wait to see Darren tonight and have a conversation to clear the air. I hoped for the best and wished for our reunion. Sitting in my office all day without doing anything had become tiresome. Being a doctor was far from easy, and I contemplated walking into Mrs. Smith’s office to ask f
CHAPTER 18 Freda’s POV. I was supposed to celebrate love and reconciliation that night, a chance for me to finally settle things with my ex-fiancé, Darren. Liam had been helping me plan the party, putting in efforts to arrange everything perfectly. I poured all my love and attention into the details of the evening, wanting to show Darren how much I still cared for him and to prove that we were meant to be together. When Ruby arrived, my heart raced with anticipation. I was ready to embark on a new chapter with Darren, one filled with love, forgiveness, and hope. But as the night progressed, I couldn't shake off the feeling that something was off. The Darren who had walked into my house just minutes ago was now completely different. Darren seemed distant and distracted, giving off the impression that he was preoccupied with something else. I tried to brush off my concerns, rationalizing that maybe he was just nervous about our reconciliation. But as the night went on, my anxi
CHAPTER 19 FREDA’S POV. I woke up with a banging headache as I cried myself to sleep. My best friend hurt me so much, alongside my fiancé or should I say my ex fiancé. I didn’t even know what to think, but what I knew was that Ruby and Darren hurt me. I didn’t know if they planned this intentionally, but Ruby knew how much I wanted for me and Darren to come back together. Betrayers!! It was only Liam that understood my predicament and pain yesterday. He was there for me when I was broken yesterday and that made me feel less painful in their presence. I just knew that Ruby and Darren wouldn’t enjoy whatever relationship they may think they share now, because I grew up believing that whatever you stole wouldn’t last long with you. I just hope that Karma catches up with them and that they pay for all the pain they’ve caused me. I sat up in bed slowly to face reality after being asleep for an extended period of time. I looked around my room and noticed the sun shining brightly
CHAPTER 20AUTHOR’S POV. The next day was a better one for Freda as she felt down a day before. She woke up agile and strong, than yesterday and decided that if Darren’s and Ruby’s plan was to see her heartbroken, haggard, or looking messed up, then she wouldn’t give them what they wanted to see. She was grateful to Liam for advising her and making her feel better, but she still knew that it wasn’t easy for him yet he still managed to make her happy. She decided to go back to the office looking agile and happy. She didn’t want to give herself a chance to show anyone that she was sad or unhappy about anything. After all she had her job, a friend, family to take care of and work to keep her mind from spiralling into depression when the weather got bad. That wasn’t her way, she would be strong in the face of adversity and defeat.She took a shower and brushed her teeth with ease, then went out to do her daily rounds which she stopped for a while. As she made her rounds the workers
CHAPTER 21 LIAM’S POV. I was very worried, as to the reason why Darren did what he did alongside Ruby. I knew that Darren did it to get back at Freda because of the way she refused to send me out of the house. I cussed silently and wished to know if it was all true. All of a sudden, I remembered something and sighed lightly. I suddenly remembered that Freda has never spoken about or even spoken to her family since he met her. I wondered if everything was alright and cool, because I knew that Freda would have told me if she had spoken to her parents. Not to brag though, but I feel I’m the closest person in her life. Well, I knew that I found it difficult to trust people, but I just can’t understand why I find it very easy trusting Freda. Like I believe every little thing she says, and it made me wonder if I was okay. I knew I wasn’t soft, I knew I was different, but I didn’t know it in the specific direction. I just hoped and wished every single day, that when I find out who
Chapter 22 FREDA’S POV Sadly, Liam has been going through so much lately..... Yeah, I managed to get him a phone so he could use to while away time or maybe explore the internet whenever he’s alone so he would while away his time whenever I’m not there. The last conversation I had with him made me know that in as much as he’s trying to cover up, he’s been very emotional of recent. FLASHBACK While I was leaving the house to go run some errands, Liam called out to me from the couch. "Freda, can I talk to you for a minute?" he asked. "Sure, what's up?" I replied, turning to face him. "I just wanted to say thank you for everything you've done for me," he said, his eyes looking watery. "I know I haven't been the best company lately, and I've been a real burden on you." "You're not a burden, Liam," I said, sitting down next to him on the couch. "I care about you, and I want to help you through this." “And you’ve also been the best company one could ever ask of,” I added. "I know,
Zack's pov (Finale)"Where is Freda? " I said, cutting straight to the chase. "First I need the money, sir. " he said. I took out my phone. "Call out your account number. " I said. He called it out, I wired the money to him. "Now, tell me. " I said. "Remember that closed end road that used be a cave? " he asked. I racked my brain. It came to me suddenly. I and Kaine used to play there when we were kids before my father closed the cave. "Yes. " I said. "Kaine opened it up when he was alpha. Not many people knew about it. That has been Kaine's hideout and that is where he is holding Freda. " he said. I looked at Aiden, he looked right back at me. "I think I know where he is talking about. " he said."I think I do too. How come we never searched there? " I said. "Beats me. " Aiden replied. He grabbed the man by his shirt, a little roughly. "If we find out that you lied to us, trust me, Kaine will be the least of your worries. " he snarled. The poor man looked terr
Zack's POVI had just sent Rosa away from my study. The little witch had tried to seduce me. Had I not been quick to stop her, it would have been a problem. What if Freda had walked in here and saw us in that compromising position with her. When Freda had told me that they would be staying in the mansion with us, I had felt a little skeptical about everything. I had gotten nothing but bad vibes from them since we went to Freda's home at their mansion. He stepmother looked malicious and kept giving her the stink eye. She was also so cold and unreceptive when she saw Freda. Almost as if she was not happy that she is alive and well. She blamed her for everything that had happened to their family and still does. More to it, she had especially being insistent that Freda takes up the alpha position and was very enraged as well disappointed when Freda turned their suggestion down. I immediately did not like her. As if she was not so negative towards Freda, she had extended an olive b
Rosa’s povDay after day, the days turn to weeks, weeks to months and the months to years. It has been just I a f my mother in this big mansion that my father left for us to live in. It has just been the both of us. Oh and mr Peterson. My mom had said that he was a butler to my father when my father was still the alpha of the red moon pack. That was before my father was banished from the pack. I and my mother have lived away from the pack. My mother is my father’s second wife and because he had a child with his first woman, I am not a direct descendant of the alpha bloodline. This is why my mother could not contest for the title. I had just wrapped up from college. Going to college had kept me sane for a while. But I had to go home occasionally to make sure my mom does not get lonely. My half sister, Freda, had been lost for a long time. She was to be a direct heir for the title. But Freda had showed up at the mansion. We were both stunned to see that she is alive and well. She i
Mabel’s pov“What do you mean take my place as alpha. I have no intentions of doing that. “ I heard Freda say to Mr Peterson. I stayed close to the door listening to the conversation between Freda and Mr Peterson. “Yes, yes you must. It is your legacy after all. You have to lay claim to the alpha title. It was meant to be yours. “ Mr Peterson said to Freda. “He is right. “I said stepping out of the the main building as well. “If you don’t want it, do it for your family, for us. You owe that much to us. “ I added. Freda turned to face Zack. He looked surprised and a little lost at what to do with what was unfolding before them. “Zack? “ Freda called, her question to him hanging heavily in the air. I could clearly see something strong was between both of them. They were probably in love or something. Zack sighed deeply, rubbed his face with his palm and looked at me. “I will not do it. They want me to raise a coup against you. You are alpha of the red moon pack and no one else.
Freda pov “In truth, the actual alpha of the Blood Moon pack was Freda’s father,” the Mr Peterson declared, his voice carrying the weight of revelation. I and Zack exchanged stunned glances, our minds reeling with the implications of this unexpected disclosure. “What do you mean? “ Zack asked. “My father has been alpha and his father before him. “ Zack said. “No. Freda’s father was alpha. Her father was banished and had to travel to the city. That’s when Zack parents step in as alpha Her dad vowed never to go back to the back. “ he said. “How is this possible, Mr Peterson? I know my father is a warewolf but alpha? That is too far stretched. “I said. “Oh but, that is the truth, however bitter it may sound. Your father was alpha and you are a direct descendant of the alpha line. Whether your father was banished or not. “ he replied. The Mr Peterson continued, delving deeper into the intricate tapestry of their family’s past. My father, a man of great strength and pride, had been
Freda’s povHe faced me. “I presume you have questions for me, young lady. “ he said. “I do. “ I replied. “But first, do come in, please. “ he said as he led us into the cabin. He gave us tea to drink. When he sat down with us, I started, “Mr Peterson, I just discovered that I am a warewolf but I have lived as a human all my life. How is that possible? “ I asked. Mr Peterson sighed. “I think it is time to call for a family meeting. They need to know that you are still alive. They all thought you were dead all these time. “ he said. “What do you mean by family? Is my mom alive? “ I asked, my voice shaking. Mr Peterson got up and left to make the calls. I felt Zack’s hand on my back. “It will be okay. I am right here with you. “ he said. He held my hand in his. I nodded. “Thank you, Zack” I said. I reached out and held his hand. He gave me a little squeeze with a side small. “Always “, he mouthed. He stood up and walked around the living room observing things. The cabin gave
Freda's POVZack announced to everyone that Annie had left the pack. The staff seemed to whisper among themselves. "She never said she was leaving.""It never seemed like she was ready to leave. ""I thought she was trying to get back with Lord Zack. "Zack cleared his throat and the whispers stopped. "Due to pressing personal matters that surfaced, Annie had to leave. I will appreciate if there are no whispers in her absence. " he said. "You may continue. " he announced. Zack reduced the feast days to two days for my sake. I was in no mood for more celebration. My mind was racing with thoughts. Zack, knowing well that I may not talk much with people. I mean, I just killed someone. And although it was on a basis of self defense, it did not make me feel better. I felt terrible that Annie had to die like that. I never meant harm for her. The mansion was a bit quiet without her. She was usually everywhere trying to take change of every single little thing. She put on a com
Freda’s pov“Somebody help me!!!! “ I screamed. She gripped my neck and squeezed tight. Her gaze focused on the my necklace. I have always worn it. My mother had given it to me. “No, don’t touch it. “ I said. “Awwn, I’m curious though. “ she said. Annie held it and pulled at it. Just then I felt a surge of energy through my body. I felt my body break and change. I felt my teeth grow longer. I grew to the same height as Annie. She looked at me, startled at what she was seeing. “What in the w—” she started to say. With a powerful force, I slashed at her throat, killing her on the spot. I was panting so hard, trying to catch my breath. When I had calmed down a bit, I looked down at Annie. She lay still on the ground and a lot of blood was spilling from her neck. “No no no no no. “ I said as I crouched down to her. I pressed my hands against her neck trying to stop the bleeding as much as I could. “Annie? Annie? “ I said, slapping her lightly on her face. “Wake up Annie.....
Freda's pov"Remember when you asked me to marry you? " I asked. He nodded. "Does it still stand? " I asked. "Are you saying yes? " he asked, excited. I nodded. He picked me up from the ground and rained kisses on my face. "We would hold a feast to celebrate this. " he said. He was grinning from ear to ear. "What made you change your mind by the way? I thought you wanted to wait? " he asked. Thinking of what to say, I turned around and walked towards the window. "I know I wanted to wait and I thought that was the best decision as at the time. " I said. I turned and faced him. "But I just went through a near death experience and during that moment all I could think of was you and how I could have allowed myself to be happy with what we have. Not thinking of what the people will say or think about it. " I said. I moved closer to him. "I know I kept you on hold but at that moment all I had were regrets for not taking the chance with you. " I said. I took his hands i
