Valeria POVI got to my pack, entered the pack house, and I was welcomed with Adrain, Ruby, and Daus sitting on the couch watching a movie. They looked like a family, just chilling on the couch, having some family time. Of course, I didn’t inform anyone of my arrival; I asked the guards to keep it very low key. I guess I just wanted to see what was happening when I was not around. And this confirms what Egan was saying.“Hey guys,” I said, smiling widely as I entered my living room. They turned to me, a look of shock on their faces, and Ruby jolted away from Adrain, dusting her body shakily.“V.valeria, you are back,” she said, her voice sounding high-pitched. I smiled.“Yes, I’m back. I got you all some gifts,” I said, bringing the bags up. They smiled, and I walked to the kitchen with them following me.“Where are you coming from?” Adrain asked. I placed the bags on the counter, looking at him. “Went on a little errand,” I said, bringing out all the gifts.“And where is Egan?” he a
Valeria POV“Are you enjoying Daddy’s Pack?” I asked Egan with a small smile on my face.“Yes, Daddy Pack is the best,” he said, moving all around the phone. I could just tell Damien was holding the phone, and Egan was walking all around talking.“I am glad. Have a goodnight rest. Mommy missed you but would see you soon,” I said.“How soon?” he asked, his voice louder. Now he is closer to the phone. “Very soon. Make sure you sleep early. Don’t sleep past bedtime, and also don’t disturb Daddy too much,” I said.“Okay!” he yelled, still so active. I sighed; he is definitely sleeping past his bedtime. Damien chuckled.“How are you doing?” he asked. I smiled.“I am the same,” I said.“Have you started working on what you said?” he asked.“No, I haven’t informed the warriors about the war yet; I would like to talk to Dmitri first. Then we can get everything in motion,” I said. “Okay, when you are ready to just keep me updated,” he said, and I smiled, nodding my head. I hung up the phone,
Valeria POVAdrain trashed around on the bed, trying to get the mark off him, but he can’t undo what I already did. The only thing he was doing was getting blood on my white sheet, which annoyed the fuck out of me. But I wasn’t worried; he would have to wash that later. My door burst open, and I turned to look; it was Ruby. She rushed in with urgency, looking around, and her eyes widened when she saw Adrain trashing on the bed. She probably thought it was me screaming.“You thought it was me?” I asked, sitting on the comfortable sofa not so far from the bed. She turned to me, and her eyes widened in shock.“What did you do to him?” she snapped, looking at Adrian in shock. A soft laughter left my lips at what she said.“What did I do to him?” I asked. She looked at Adrian, running to him and trying to keep him from hurting himself, but he pushed her away. He is mine now; his loyalty lies with me.“What did you do to him, you bitch?” she yelled. Anger rose deep within me as I looked at
Valeria POVA horror filled scream left Daus lips and before he could run to his mom, I blocked him, carrying him out of the room. He fought with me, screamed and scratched me to let him go but I was barely affected. I took him to his room, dropping him on the bed and I stared at him blankly. I’m sorry you had to see that Daus, no child deserves that, but your momma is evil. She definitely didn’t think of my son and what he would go through if I was dead because no way would I live with that bastard mark on my neck.“Daus,” I called. “Mommy, I want my mommy,” he cried out loudly. I sat on his bed, carrying him on my lap and petting his back softly.“I’m sorry,” I said, not sorry for what happened to Ruby. I am just sorry he has to see that and live without a mom and possibly a dad.“Mommy,” he cried. I pulled back, and I sighed.“Sleep,” I commanded. He blinked his eyes repeatedly, looking all drowsy. And slowly, he fell into my arms, passed out. I sighed, patting his back softly.“I
Valeria POVI continued sprinting to Damien’s pack, and when I got near his pack, I was jumping on the censor so they knew I was coming. When I got to the pack, I saw the guards and Dante looking at me from the walls, and they were shocked. I can’t mind link them as I am no longer in this pack. I moved back, then I ran with all speed, growling as I tried to jump off the high wall. The warriors all yelled, causing a commotion as I jumped over the wall, landing on my paws.“Valeria? What’s going on?” Dante asked, running to me. I howled, ignoring him and running to the pack. Dante shifted, running after me. I know he was trying to catch up, but I was in momma bear mode. It was late at night, and I was worried about my son. Who did Titus send to take him? How are they even going to take him in this pack filled with security? Dante growled behind me, and I hoped he was talking to Damien. I continued running, ignoring people’s yells of surprise as I passed them.After a few minutes, I was
Valeria POVI got back to the pack, and I headed to the dungeon.“How is he doing?” I asked Collin.“He has gone crazy; he keeps growling and scratching his neck. I tried to stop him, but he is strong and needs more than one wolf to tame him,” he said. And before I got to Adrain, I could hear his loud growling.“Are you with his phone?” I asked.“Yes, it’s with me,” he replied, and I nodded my head. We got to the dungeon, and of course, only he was here. He was rolling on the floor, growling at everyone and everything.“Open the gate,” I said. Collin looked at me wearily, but opened it, anyway. I entered the cell, and he was still rolling on the floor, trying to get rid of his mark.“Adrain,” I called, and immediately he tensed up. His muscles moved, and slowly, he turned around. At first, he looked like a crazy animal, with no ounce of humanity behind those eyes, but when his eyes fixed on me, he became normal. He fell to the floor, crying out.“What have you done?” he cried out. I r
Valeria POVI sat in front of a mirror, looking into my soulless blue eyes. My lips twisted into a frown as I could hear the sound of someone’s heart beating loudly. The sound was obviously very annoying and uncomfortable. The sound was also very painful to hear; it seems the person is in pain as the heart trumps loudly.“It’s you, you dummy!” my subconscious yelled at me. Me? Am I the owner of the thumping heart? I slowly placed my hand on my chest, and I could hear my heart beating loudly. Sadness was over me in great waves as I struggled to keep my tears in. The door opened, and my mother came in.Her lips were stretched in a wide smile, and a bright red lipstick sitting pretty on her round lips. Her eyes glowed; they glittered. Today was the happiest day of her life. She was getting rid of the one thing she hated, the one thing she hated looking at, and the one thing that almost got her killed. That thing is me.“Oh, Alpha Adrain is almost here,” she shrieked, almost jumping on he
Valeria POVI sat by the window of the car, looking outside into the endless woods. The dinner ended with sour faces and two smiling faces. Mother and father were happy to have gotten rid of me, while the rest were not happy with their Alpha’s choice, but they couldn’t argue with him. Ruby was disappointed, throwing a fit of temper and storming out of the dining room. Father was, of course, embarrassed; she embarrassed his guests and him, and he had apologised to the young Alpha by bowing his head. His cheeks were a bright red, and it was a funny scene. This is not the first time she embarrassed him, but he never said a word, and this he couldn’t overlook.“Are you sure of this, Adrain?” a deep voice across me asked. I didn’t turn my head. I don’t know who this man is, but he seems to talk to the Alpha like he is his brother, and from his aura, he is probably the beta of the pack.“No,” he replied.“So, why did you choose her? She looks timid; our pack would not survive a week in her
