Cary's pov..........Ever since the argument between Kiera and myself, things have turned sour. She no longer spoke with me about anything and last night, she locked me outside our room asking me never to show my face to her again. She doesn't even want us to sleep in the same room anymore and to make matters worse, Ivy also wasn't speaking to me either...it was like the both of them despised me and I don't know what I did wrong...when did my life turn out this way."Cary can you come over here for a sec?" Axel called out to me from downstairs. They were all sitted there chilling....Axel, Jude, Kai, and Rex, they all stared at me as I walked over to meet them. I sat down on one of the couches next to Axel "What's with all the piercing gazes, is there something on my face?".Jude still staring at me grinned "We are kinda surprised that's all, this is the first time you are coming in without a grand entrance, you always come in with an entrance".I sighed "Guess am not in the mood then"
Aimee's pov...........Was I too harsh on Cary, should I go apologize to him....wait, he should be the one to understand that I was not myself. I was practically losing my mind here....with Sydney gone and me losing my second baby. Nothing hurts a mother more than losing her own child.Cary was at fault, he failed in his duties as a mate and a father. He failed to understand things from my own point of view, he could not understand a mother's pain, he could not understand that Sydney isn't at fault and that she might have had a very good reason for doing what she did, his being self centered and inconsiderate blaming Sydney for everything that happened and...and as if that wasn't enough, he went ahead and turned my daughter against me...My ivy...My angel.I was really starting to regret why I accepted to be Cary's mate, I should have waited and studied him first, I had ruined my life all in the name of LOVE. Now I didn't want to see his face, I didn't want to breath the same air as him
REX'S pov.........Who does he think he is? Talking to me in that manner. It's not like I came here on my own accord, Sia brought me here and yet I feel like an imposter....Am trying to take Max's place?....I don't even know who the fuck Mark is and me trying to take his place is just bullshit. I sincerely loved Sia from the bottom of my heart, I was even ready to lay down my life for her but it seemed they all thought otherwise.I could not continue living this way, with everyone in Sia's park hating me, maybe it was better if I left....I mean I wasn't a part of their park so it wouldn't make a difference if I left but it was gonna make a big difference if I stayed. I couldn't cope with this hate but this wasn't gonna change the relationship between myself and Sia, I was still gonna love and protect her but from outside, she had a whole family to protect her indoors, I just wasn't a part of that family."Sweetie am back" Sia said as she entered the room kissing me on my lips."Welcome
Julia's Pov................A lot has happened and I don't really need to start narrating everything from the beginning so am just gonna go straight to the point.....My mother, the Queen Mother is sick, not just sick but dying. It started the day Sydney left, mother started acting strange and one day she suddenly collapsed, that was when everything turned sour. Mother fell very ill and now I was sitting beside her holding her hands as tears threatened to roll down my cheeks. She looked so fragile and frail and it hurt me to see her in such bad condition.She turned to face me and she smiled "Julia?"."Am here mother"."Why the long face, am not dead am I ?".I chuckled "No you're not, if you were then we won't be speaking"."Okay, then put a smile on that sour face of yours".I forced a smile "Happy now?"."It's still fake but at least it's better"."How are you feeling?"."Numb, but it doesn't really matter since I will be gone soon".I frowned "Don't say things like that, you know i
Axel's pov.........Yet another loss and this time it had to be my mother.....Max, Alia, Hunter, and now Mother, how many more were gonna die, how much pain was I gonna pass through before it became too much to bear, how much time was left before I completely lost my mind and shattered. I dropped Julia on her bed, she was already asleep the tears still fresh on her face. It really hurt seeing my sister going through this, I kissed her forehead and stared at Jude "Take care of her"."Of course"and I turned to leave "Axel will you be okay?"."I don't know" I said without facing him and left.I needed to be alone right now, I needed to sit down and think, I felt like I was already losing my mind. I strolled outside the balcony to the garden feeling the cool breeze on my face. I swirled my hands through my hair as I sat down and bit my lips "Why me? Why am I the one having to go through all this, who did I offend?".Suddenly I felt a hand on my shoulder and I looked up only to meet with th
Julia's Pov.......Was this how God worked? Did he give things and then goes ahead to take it back...How cruel was that. I thought they said bad things only happened to bad people, then Why Mother, she never offended even the poorest soul. Why was she been punished for a crime she did not commit."Please Julia just try and eat something" Jude pleased putting the spoon of Cereal to my lips but I refused." Am not hungry"."Yes you are....I know you are hurting baby, we all are but we can only get through this together, starving yourself won't change a thing"."You're right about that" and tears rolled down my cheeks "It won't bring mother back, Nothing can bring her back. Am acting really annoying right, am acting like a pompous child"."Of course not babe, don't say that, your behavior is clearly justified. You just lost your mom, you're free to mourn for her all you like but shutting yourself out from everyone around you and also going ahead to starve yourself isn't the right way to g
Axel's pov..................I stared at Julia as she slept soundly on her bed, the trail of tears still traced down on her face proving that she cried a lot which she did. She wasn't smiling infact her expression was so sad it tugged my heart. Even in her sleep, she was still hurting. Julia was very important to me and so seeing her in such condition was killing me."I see she's finally asleep".I sniffed realizing that I was about to start crying. I turned to see Jude standing at the door "Yeah".He walked over to the bed and kissed Julia's forehead "You're going to be alright baby" he whispered then stared at the bowl of cereal on the table still filled to the brim "She still refused to eat anything?"."Yeah and I didn't bother forcing her, that might upset her even more and turn out worse for us"."Trust me, I clearly understand" he walked up to the dumpster and threw the bowl of cereal in it.I cleared my throat "I know this is probably not the best time but I really should be ap
Julia's Pov..............."Are you going to eat now?" Jude asked putting a tray of food on the table in front of me."Yeah".For some reason I was feeling better like really..... really...better which was a good thing.I grinned at Jude "Come here for a second will you".He walked up to me."Closer".He raised his brow "Why do I feel like you are up to something"."You'll never know until you try".He moved closer to me and I grabbed him by the collar, kissing him deeply before I sighed satisfied "Gosh I needed that".He smiled "I see you are feeling much better" and he licked his lips in that very sexy way that always made me horny.I spurred "Keep doing that and we will be in bed all day".He smirked "Am not complaining".I frowned "I am, if we stay In bed then am going to miss the burial procession" I felt a lump in my throat and the realization hit me, my mother was really gone, gone forever.Jude's smile dropped as he sat beside me "You okay?"."Yeah perfectly fine"."Sure you w
Axel's pov........ I was happy, like this was the happiest I've ever been. For the first time in my life, I finally felt complete.('YOU WOULD HAVE FELT THIS WAY A LONG TIME AGO IF YOU HAD JUST LISTENED TO ME').'You're right and am sorry about it buddy. You are the best spirit wolf an Alpha Lord could ever ask for Sabastien and that's a fact, am one lucky Alpha to have you in my life, thanks for all you do' And there was complete silence 'Sabastien?'.A Sniff ('I WASN'T EXPECTING SUCH OUTBURST FROM YOU AXEL').Wait! Was Sabastien crying.('NO IDIOT! I NEVER CRY') Ohh Yeah, he was crying alright.I smirked 'You really love me don't you buddy?'.('DON'T BET ON IT'). I stared at Sydney as she walked forward ready to give a speech, all attention on her, she was oozing the authorities of a true Luna.She cleared her throat "Excuse me everyone, I have something to say, I know we have gone through a lot but the storm is over for now. Am not saying we are going to be living a peaceful life
Sydney's pov............"So you guys are a thing now?" Sue asked and my cheeks flushed red "Yeah"."And it's going to last this time around right?"."SUE?" Sia scolded and Sue shrugged "Just asking, their relationship has been off and on for a while now so i think it's about time they settled down for real".Julia nodded "Yeah we all think the same, but I think it's permanent this time around, Axel did confess to her".I cocked my head at her "And how do you know this?" And she shrugged, sipped from her tea "Just a hunch" It was not a hunch alright and I knew it."Make up sex really is the best right Sydney" and I choked on my spit. I was right, she really was eavesdropping. "Yeah but it's more steamy and passionate when no one is secretly eavesdropping on you".She shook her head "I have no idea what you are talking about".Sue smirked "Ohh but yours was steamy enough alright, your cry of passion is prove enough"."SUE" Sia scolded her again and she frowned "What? you know her room
Axel's pov......... I slumped on the floor immediately I entered my room, my head in my laps.('I TOLD YOU SILVAR WAS UP TO NO GOOD').'Please Sabastien, not right now, am not in the mood'.('OHH COME ON AXEL, CHEER UP').'Cheer up? Do you not understand what just happened?'('OF COURSE I DO AND I KNOW SILVAR'S BETRAYAL LEFT YOU SHATTERED. I KNEW SHE WAS UP TO NO GOOD BUT I NEVER KNEW SHE WAS THIS EVIL, I MEAN I WAS SHOCKED WITH HER CONFESSION AND THAT'S AN EMOTION I HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED').'Good for you'. I couldn't believe the woman I loved for so many years was a traitor, I couldn't believe that the person I waged a war for on a whole nation was sitting in the background eating some popcorn and enjoying the show. I had accused the Vampires for murdering a person who was very well alive, someone who had faked her own death. I maltreated the daughter of the Vampire King as payback for killing Silvar, I deprived her of a good life all because I wanted to quench the burning rage in
Sydney's pov.......... My eyes traced Axel as he walked upstairs."You go after him" Kai said walking up me."What?".Then his expression softened "Am really sorry Sydney, for ever doubting you" and I broke down in tears as I hugged him "Am the one who should be apologising for the nasty things I said to you and Kiera".Kiera walked up to us "It's fine, you had a very good reason for saying such things but you still should have told us, we would have helped".I shook my head "I didn't tell you because I did not want to bother the both of you".Julia stood up from where she was consoling Jude and starting heading my way. When she got to where I stood, she attempted to kneel but I stopped her "Don't Julia, you're pregnant".She sniffed as her face turned red "Where do I start from Sydney?".I shook my head "You don't have to say anything, I was the one who acted selfish and took advantage of the fact that you always supported me irrespective of my shortcomings"."That's the problem, I
Sydney's pov............. I knew Silvar was the traitor but I didn't expect the story would be this deep, if I was feeling this way then I couldn't imagine how Axel felt, he must be shattered knowing that the woman he fought for all his life was nothing more than a traitor, that everything that happened was all her doing.She stood up and sniffed "But you know what, it's fine, I forgive all of you, let's let sleeping dogs lie so we can go back to the way we were before, one big family" Then she put her hands on her chin "But that can only work if Sydney is out of the picture so you know what, I would do the pleasure of getting rid of her" and she started walking towards me."STOP!" Hunter suddenly commanded and she froze in her spot.He walked up to her "I think we have heard enough from you Silvar and know it's about time you hear from us".She glared at him "Release me and I'll let you off the hook Hunter"."She needs to punished for her crimes" Cary butted in.Sia nodded "She need
Axel's pov........... I don't think I could take any more of this confession, I was gradually falling apart with every second that passed.('I SUSPECTED SILVAR WAS BAD BUT I DIDN'T THINK HER OFFENSE WOULD BE THIS GRAVE, I'LL HAVE TO ADMIT, AM SHOCKED').She picked a vase and stared at it "I faked my own death to see Sydney punished for the crimes her father committed but then Axel had to go fall in love with her. I got pissed okay, I mean why wouldn't I, How was my revenge going to work out now? How was I going to make Sydney pay for her father crimes? So I decide to start operating from the background" She sighed "I succeeded in making Axel murder Sydney's father but still she didn't despise him, I then decided it was high time I came back to the house and put a end to everything".('THIS GIRL IS THE REAL DEFINITION OF EVIL')."I should have suspected something was off the minute Sydney left the house on her own" Then she glared at Hunter "I should have known someone was behind it"
Axel's pov.............SILVAR WAS THE TRAITOR? Was I dreaming or what.('THIS IS REAL LIFE AXEL SO YOU HAD BETTER FACE IT').Jude stumbled forward, failing to hide the shock on his face "What are you saying sister?".Silvar smiled at him "Ohh my dear sweet Jude, this sister of yours is the mastermind of everything that has happened in this park".Sue frowned "What do you mean by 'everything'?"."Do I really have to spell it out for you" She put her hands on her chin "Okay then but where do I start from, you remember Circe right? well she was my puppet and Draken.........." She said facing Hunter "They both answered to me, they were simply doing what I asked them to".Sia put her hands over her mouth in shock "That means you....you....She faced Sia and clicked her tongue "Mark was just a sample to show you all what we were capable of, more like a scapegoat". Rex placed Sia's head on his shoulder as she wept "You are a monster?".She bowed "Well thank you for the nice compliment".Hun
Axel's pov..................... Hunter had called everyone to the main room and I knew why, it must be to expose the traitor.('FINALLY, I WAS STARTING TO HAVE CRAMPS FROM WAITING TOO LONG').'Is the great 'Sabastien' actually nervous?'.('NEVER, I JUST SAID THAT IT WAS CRAMPS') Yeah right! Like I didn't know better.('NO, YOU DON'T').I walked downstairs to meet the others already waiting, I sat down on my couch, crossing my arms "Yes?".Hunter walked forward holding hands with Sydney and I felt a sting.('IS THAT JEALOUSY I SMELL').I shook my head 'I could'nt care any less'.('YEAH, YEAH, WHATEVER YOU SAY...............AXEL').He helped Sydney sit like she was some kind of person that needed to be pampered.('YOU BET SHE IS').Then he cleared his throat "I know you are all wondering why I called you here".Julia frowned "Duhh!! of course we are so you had better not waste our time".Jude shook her head "Please don't mind her attitude"."Yeah don't mind me, it's pregnancy hormones,
Axel's pov.............. I couldn't get yesterday's discussion with Hunter out of my head, he promised that he was going to expose the traitor today but I couldn't wait, more like I was confused and torn on who the traitor could be.'Sabastien, are you there'.('HUH?').'You know, you could help me out here right'.('I THOUGHT YOU SAID I SHOULDN'T BUTT IN').'You know I didn't mean that, I was annoyed at that moment'.No Response.......I rolled my eyes 'Okay, am sorry... Satisfied?'.('YES SO WHY DON'T WE GO OVER ALL THE MEMBERS OF YOUR PARK AND SEE WHO IS LIKELY TO BETRAY YOU').That was a nice idea, i might even find the traitor before Hunter exposed him/her 'Okay, but how are we sure that the traitor is a person?'.('CAUSE WHEN YOU ASKED IF THE PERSON WAS STILL IN THE MANSION, HUNTER ANSWERED YES CONFIRMING THAT THE TRAITOR WAS A PERSON, ONE PERSON, DO YOU UNDERSTAND NOW').'Yeah, good point'.('OKAY AND.........DRUMS ROLL............OUR FIRST CONTESTANT IS SILVAR').I frowned
