ETHAN'S POV

"Did you get the scapegoat over?" He asked me over the phone.

"Of course but we have a better insider we would utilize." I responded.

"Who's that, our spy?" He asked me.

Questions.. I loved avoiding them as I was used to dishing out the orders and not being interrogated unnecessarily.

"Not the spy. His mate." I said.

"Laurel? Thought she's your girlfriend?" He asked me yet again.

"Girlfriend, yes. But she seems like she's been trying to pull a fast one on me and went back to win her one true mate." I said.

"Laurel went back to Xander?" He inquired further and was seriously beginning to grit my nerves.

"Yes and we would work into her," I said.

"Cool." He said simply and I was relieved.

"I'll be sending you the plans for the next line of action tonight. We have to make bigger waves so he does not know what or who hit him while I confer with Laurel." I said.

"Would she listen?" There he was again with the questions.

"She has no choice." I said.

"Okay." He said to me and the

    LAUREL'S POV I turned as I glared at Xander, "you know what, I would look after her." I said to him."What?" He asked me."I want to watch over her." I stated vehemently."No. You have always been at loggerheads with Nicolette from the moment you arrived. All you've been up to has been stealing her husband from her," he said to me in annoyance."Her husband is my mate." I reminded him since he was trying to forget."Doesn't matter. He's not yours anymore." I was pissed off by what he said."Not to me. He's mine forever," I said clearly to him. At that time, the little wench groaned in her slumber. I glared at her and even more when Xander crossed over to go check on her. I could not imagine that he would ever think twice about taking me back. I mean, they had no kids together which meant that he was under no obligation towards her and her little gimmicks. He would have to let her go eventually. Clearly, she was pretending and was using this format to get him to pay her attention

    XANDER'S POVI know, I should not let it get to me. She was just toying with my emotions and I most certainly cannot let her get what she wanted. Nicolette was still very ill and now was not the time to play mind games with Laurel over a situation I knew well enough that I could get the better of. I had simply dialed my friend who worked with the towing company and then would let him handle the rest. I had decided that I would meet him up with Laurel but asked him to wait for us to arrive before anything else as I could not have her saying that the entire thing was planned and planted although that would be impossible.The doctor was my major interest now and I needed to go pick him up right now. I made my way to the hospital but not before making certain that Nicolette was safe. I did not trust Laurel not to make a mess and do things whilst I was away, hence, I locked the door and the key, I gave to the one member of the staff that was more trustworthy and neutral in all her dealings

    LAUREL'S POVI could not believe that he had been saying the truth all along but that was not my business. I mean, I still needed to see how truthful he was being to me right? I stood there as I watched the men start their work and start searching through the river while I stood there with him watching. Seeing was believing after all and no one would actually blame me for being careful with my thoughts. It would be only a matter of moments and I would be ready to think on my next move. I stood there watching and it took a really long time before they found the car.I let off a gasp which I had no idea if I meant it or not because of the state of the cat. It looked pretty much bunged up from the accident and folded, making me wonder how she had gotten out of it alive. The lucky wench."Was she really in on that thing?" I asked, looking up at him."See for yourself, that's her car right?" He asked me."But how did she survive?" I demanded."Well, I was on her trail so I saved her before

    ALLEN'S POV. Clearly, he did not want to talk to me and I could understand why. He was trying to prove his point that I was no match for him and I could see that now even. I had started out with him as I tried to torture out the words from him but he would not bulge. I turned to look at Adriana as I was actually beginning to get tired of this wild goose chase."Tired already?" The badly beaten man asked me.I suddenly punched him across the face and then he grunted in pain."I was merely getting ready to stretch." I said and then what had sounded like he was in pain turned into a series of laughter."You just can't admit it now, can you?" He asked me."Admit what?" I demanded."What a weakling you are. You see, you can do all you want but I would be saying nothing still." He said to me and I was actually vexed.There was something about the manner with which he said these things that made me understand that he was being serious about it actually. He was not going to tell me anythi

    NICOLETTE'S POV. The scent I was getting told me straight on that this was not my room. The manliness was that of Xander and so did the sheets around me. Wait, was I not supposed to be dead right now? Slowly, I opened my eyes even as my eyes hurt badly. There was someone else in the room. I caught the scent. This person reeked of the hospital that made me realize he was a doctor. I was still in bed but could not gather up strength to sit up, so I started trying to make sounds and quickly, he was at my side."Hello, Nicolette." He said to me."Head hurts." I managed to say through the pains I was feeling and did I mention a little tinge of cold. Something told me that the cold would be worse than this had I not been taken care of."I know. Let's see something." He said to me as he brought his little pointer and flashed its light in my eyes as he inspected them."Seems okay to me. Here, how many fingers am I holding up?" He asked me."Two....no wait, four?" I asked him. It was conf

    LAUREL'S POVI said what I said because I actually meant it. The wench should have remained dead and not have the whole world after her. Yes, Xander was the world. She clearly wanted him to follow her or else she would have waited for a really opportune time to leave the house on her suicide mission. I also was blaming myself because I had been the one who had actually told him that she was leaving and causing him to have to go after her. I should have remained mute and let the hands of fate decide for me. They clearly were in my favor until I ruined my chances. I was vexed right now but she was glaring."How dare you?" She asked in a near whisper."You know I could pull your pillow right over your face now and that would mark the end for you." I said to her "You want to kill me?" She whispered."Do you want me to?" I asked her."You wouldn't dare." She shot at me.I leant in closer to her and then glared directly into her eyes."And you think you can stop me?" I demand.She stared d

    ALLEN'S POV I had never seen this side of Adriana. So calm, relaxed and even approachable. She stared at a particular seat in a manner that I grew worried that she probably wanted to sit there. She was just a Gamma and had been yet to advance with her compelling skills."Adriana, you do realize if you want to sit there, I will make arrangements for that." I said bringing her back to us.She scoffed, "wait, what would you do? Ask them to give up their seat?" She asked me.Clearly, she did not know about the hidden talent or something."Wait, you do know that I could compel them, right?" I asked her."I thought that skills are reserved for the vamps which by all means I would say are nonexistent." She said looking directly at me now."Well, that's what they say and we tend to keep it between us. Alpha's and their Beta's are usually granted the gift." I said to her,"What about Gamma's?" She asked me."Well, on rare occasions when they learn carefully, yes. If not, they are just Gamma

    NICOLETTE'S POV I watched as he locked the door behind her and made his way back to me as he stood there glaring at me."You hate me, I get it." I said to him."And why would I hate you?" He asked me.Yes, Nicolette, answer the damn question you have put on his mind. Perhaps, I had been hoping to get a little bit of empathy from him towards what his mate had done to me but I should never have played the hate card on him. I should have known better than to do that at this point."You know I did not conveniently spit on her, she had it coming." I said instead.Going defensive, soon I would have nowhere to run and I would face the music."Seriously? About Laurel when I just asked you a question? Is that the best you can do?" He asked, glaring at me.Clearly, he was pissed at me and was probably trying to keep himself from showing it all out to me. I had been the one that started with the paranoid thinking pattern and seeing that was me drifting, he did not want that. What I could see

    XANDER'S POV I could not believe I had missed all of that in my rush. To think that Zibelle had been so aloof should have told me all I needed to know about what was actually happening. We arrived at the place she was hosting her show and then found the luxury cars that were scattered around outside the premises. It was clear the attendees were no persons of ordinary caliber. I turned to my men coming down from their car behind mine. "Smoke the area to make certain there are no other wolves. If she has taken Nicolette, then she's not in this alone." I said to them, "What about me, Alpha?" The werewolf who had driven me to the place turned to ask. "You're coming with me as backup. Where's the gamma?" I asked, noticing Adriana was nowhere to be found. "None can tell, Alpha. She's been missing since the proclamation of Allen's banishment." He said. I nodded my head knowingly. That could be understood knowing how much she actually cared about Allen. She probably was out there weepin

    XANDER'S POV"Don't do this, Xander. You know I'm innocent." Allen said to me as he stood before me in the dark woods.I had already declared him a criminal and he was to be banished. The more I looked at him now, all I could think of was the fact that he had probably won Nicolette's heart."Tell me then, where is she?" I asked him."Buddy, I swear this to you. I have no idea where she is but together I know we can find her." He said to me,My face grimaced. He still had the nerve to lie to me after all this while. What was so hard about the truth."I actually thought you were my friend but apparently, you're a cheap liar. These are the borders, go and don't return." I said to him avoiding his eyes."Xander, please." He said to me,His voice was shaky and I knew he was probably crying at this point. "The next time I lay eyes on you,.it shall be your death. I'll give you the grace and time to get these fixed. Return my wife to me or I shall hunt you for the rest of your miserable life

    NICOLETTE'S POVI could not go the way out as there was no telling how many men had been left out there to tame me. The only way I could think of was the high scaled window and what I needed now was a really big leap. One mistake and I would certainly be caught again. I thought of the baby, breathing within me and all I had endured all along. Nothing would have to go wrong, right? No way was I going to lose my child for my friend that so easily had backstabbed me.I looked right at the concoction that had been given to me. Who's to say it is not actually poison?Either way, I took a deep breath right now as I made the biggest leap yet of my life. It was a lot for me to take in as I jumped really high until I hit myself against the window pane. It suddenly burnt and I nearly let go and lost control as I had not been prepared to find that it was made out of pure silver. My feet had lost their footing and it took me a while to balance up. I started to climb over the window, burns and a

    NICOLETTE'S POVI was locked in this room in the cabin. The cabin was divided into two parts and I could not help but notice how it was being built to have just a single entrance. My prison room had a window that seemed really high for me but I knew I needed to figure out a way to escape.As commanded, Maxwell's men did not attempt to lay hands on me for now because there was actually no telling what would become of me when the evil duo decided to come for me. They were working together crying out loud!Who knows right now what Zibelle has been up to acting selling me out cheaply. It was a little wonder as to what Laurel must have promised her and right now, I was beginning to question our entire friendship that seemed to be based on a lie.Was there a possibility that all these years together had meant nothing or had she been spying on me from the very beginning? I was confused at this point that I could not even begin to think about it. I sat down there, recounting and wondering if

    MAXWELL'S POVSeeing Nicolette after all this while was really something and I suddenly felt this tinge of elation towards her. She seemed not so happy to see me and I could have sworn that there was fear in her eyes when she looked at me. Was she by any chance thinking that I would hurt her or something? I would never...I guessed I spoke too soon as suddenly I heard it. The faint beating of that steady heart that he had implanted in her womb. It made me feel a surge of anger swim through me as I watched her steadily."You're indeed pregnant." I said to her,"Let me go." She said to me,"Go? You're free to go, Nicolette. That's the way." I said pointing out where she had just come from.She looked rather confused as she stared back at me. It would come to seem as though I have begun playing games on her.A couple of seconds and she turned back to find that there was no one on her path. Not even Laurel stood there as they all cleared a way for her in the middle.Nicolette was skeptica

    XANDER'S POVI suddenly felt restless after I had left the witch who apparently had been shot. She probably died on the way but something seemed to be bugging as suddenly, I felt a heart wrenching pain on my chest."Nicolette..." My wolf cried out weakly. "Trouble."I had to hastily return to my car and start the ignition immediately. Whatever this was, I would be needing to get to the root of it immediately. I tried to start the car again but the damned pain returned again, this time more searing and I knew she was in trouble.I quickly decided to dial Allen. He had probably gotten to her or something. The guy took the phone immediately on the second ring and then I asked if he had seen Nicolette today."Not really but I received a call from the pack house security. She's gone missing and is not taking her calls." He said to me,"Why didn't you call me immediately?" I yelled at him, putting the car in motion."Because they said you would react badly. We were hoping to find her before

    NICOLETTE'S POVI could not believe that this was happening as I tried to take a quick glance at Zibelle who apparently averted her eyes. She was clearly not going to look at me after her sore betrayal.Laurel walked over to me and right then I saw some persons with torches go over to the entrance and block it off with the caution sign. That way, no vehicle would pass this way again."How could you do this to me?" I asked Zibelle who kept looking away as she came off from the vehicle."Oh, so sad but you should know that Zibelle and I have always been best buddies right from our school days. We love and care about each other. Hence, it should not come as a surprise that you have been sold out." Laurel said as she opened my side of the car. "Out."I hesitated but reckoned that she would deal with me even as I noticed eyes glowing in the dark. There were other werewolves here but certainly, not from our pack. They reeked and I knew being pregnant and outnumbered was not the time to fig

    ZIBELLE'S POV"Just act naturally and lead her to us. We'll take it from there." Those were her words on the phone when she called me on this day that the plan had been set up.It was only a couple of days to Nicolette's birthday party which we all could tell now that in anticipation, Xander was making bigger plans. I have been keeping up tabs with her and playing the caring friend and anticipating godmother to Nicolette.I had a thing tomorrow also. My fashion show and hopefully, should things go as planned today then I would be a free woman and minding both my business and my show.Clearly, I had been lacking good sleep as all my thoughts were filled with the fear of being found out or betrayed by Laurel who had always been known to be up to no good.I got out of bed sluggishly dressing up and eventually got prepared. I decided that I would call Nicolette just so we could do some shopping."Zibs, what's up?" An excited Nicolette said to me over the phone.The happiness and innocenc

    DELA'S POVI found out.To think that I had been smart and careful all along only to let down my guard upon my very first encounter with Xander was really something. It had been years since I stayed in the background, secretly watching Nicolette and seeking the best ways possible to get closer.We had separated at some point when I felt she would be able to stand on her own two feet as I went into seclusion which was a thing with us witches. It used to be the best time when we could gather up the potency of our powers and also return stronger.Mine had taken me years as my times out of practice when playing nanny to the child had been something else. I reckoned how young she had been when I fled away from her with a promise that I would always be watching her. It had been long years in the dark cave where I lost track of time.I returned to find my dear child as that was what I saw her as, married to someone dangerous. Xander was never supposed to happen and the more I dug into his fa
