ELENA’S POV I was still in a little bit of shock by what Damien had told me, I couldn’t help wondering what connection he could have had with Lukas. Even though Damien didn’t say it in many words, I knew that a part of him thought that he was from this pack. I just didn’t believe that he was, I didn’t think it was possible. I also wondered who he was, what if he was the lost prince that had supposedly died in the accident? Damien was the one who told me what Charles had told him about Lukas and how he got to be alpha and I wondered if the accident that Lukas had been in was the same accident that was reported to have killed the prince according to Charles. Nothing about this made sense and I felt that my theory was the only one that did make sense, however, Damien wasn’t ready to accept that without any supporting evidence. I had received so much information from Damien last night and just when I thought that I had had enough, Grace came with a wide smile and claimed that she had go
DAMIEN’S POVI couldn’t help feeling like getting back into Lukas’ office was urgent. Somehow, I just knew that that office had all the answers to my questions. I may not have been ready for whatever was waiting for me on the other side of that door, but I figured it was better than not knowing who I was or what connection I had to Lukas besides Elena. I had always believed that everything that happened, whether good or bad, always had an effect on my future and that every bad thing could always be turned around to work for the good. This was how I was feeling about the fact that Lukas had taken Elena by force. Maybe I would never have met her if she had never come here with him. If alpha Jake hadn't been in a fight with Lukas, I might never have been able to come to this pack house, so in the end, everything worked to my advantage. Another thing that I wanted to use to my advantage was the fact that Lukas wasn’t there. I wanted to use this last night that I had in his office as an op
LUKAS’ POVThe fact that my trip hadn’t been the way I wanted it and expected it to go was the main reason why I couldn’t wait to get back home to Elena. I had been in a bad mood the entire week and that was all because I was missing Elena, I had no one else to blame for my failure to perform in my meetings because all I could think about was Elena and what she could have possibly been doing back home. I found myself obsessing over what she was doing and whether or not she was missing me the way I was missing her. Even though I knew no one in my pack would dare double cross me by trying their luck on her, u still couldn’t help worrying that she might have been spending her time with some other male. And that was the reason why Grace had the task that I had given her, and I expected her to do as I told her to do.Grace had been under strict instructions to keep a very close eye on her and I expected feedback from her as soon as I got back home.I couldn’t even sleep at night because I
LUKAS’ POVI could tell by the look that grace was giving me that whatever she was about to tell me was big news. I was nervous. Not a lot of things made me nervous, but Grace always did and this time it had nothing to do with the decisions that she had made for herself or a man that she had been with, but it had everything to do with me. This was about my life and quite possibly the future of this pack. I tried to convince myself that whatever she told me couldn’t be that bad and that if it was, I was just going to take it like a man and not allow it to bring me down. I couldn’t allow Grace to bring me down. As a matter of fact, I doubted she had anything to tell me at all. That’s right, she was probably nervous because she had nothing to tell me and this was yet another task that she had failed. I took a deep breath and gulped down the 5th glass of rum that I had poured for myself. What if Elena was preparing to leave me? I wondered and I realized that I was torturing myself by goin
DAMIEN’S POVAfter finding that letter in Lukas’ office, I was very positive about my future with Elena. When I first came here, I never thought that I would end up finding my mate and my home. Not only had I found my home, but I had also discovered that this home had been stolen from me. Now that I was putting Chalres’ story and what had happened to me together, I realized that Lukas was the one who was responsible for everything. He must have been the one who caused the accident that robbed me of my memory. This was the only explanation that made sense to me. He had managed to get away with his crimes long enough and now that I was here I was going to make sure that everyone knew what he was.I still didn’t remember everything about my past life, but I was slowly remembering some things. One thing that I could definitely remember was the fact that I had received Charles’ message in form of a letter just like he had said. I didn’t know what made him send me that message. I mean he ha
LUKAS’ POVI had been going crazy going over what Grace had just told me about Elena and Damien. How could I have been so stupid? How did I not see that this was happening when all the signs were there? I wanted to confront Elenabut at the same time I was afraid to. I was afraid that a confrontation would probably end with me attacking her and I didn’t want to hurt her. I didn’t want to hurt her, but lately, she had just been pushing me to do that. For now, I was going to have to settle for dealing with Damien. He was the one who had come here and turned my entire life upside down. Elena was very afraid of me and I didn’t believe that she would ever think of doing this to me if it wasn’t for Damien. I was going to get rid of them before this got out of hand and before something worse happened.I hadn't told Mike about what was happening and I wasn’t planning to, Mike was very impulsive and a little too trigger-happy for my liking. I didn’t want him to kill Damien. If he was to die, th
ELENA’S POVI hadn’t been feeling well for a few days now and the fact that Lukas was back kind of made me feel worse. I still hadn’t seen him and I couldn’t help wondering why that was so, but Lukas wasn’t the only one who had gone AWOL on me. Damien also hadn’t come to see me and that just made me all the more anxious. I was still a little bitter that Damien and I hadn’t gotten the opportunity to make the most of the last night we had together, but I tried to understand that he was searching for answers. I hoped that he had found the information that he was searching for because I highly doubted that he would ever get that chance again now that Lukas was back.Another odd thing that was happening was the fact that Grace also hadn’t been coming to see me ever since Lukas came back. As a matter of fact, I hadn’t seen her ever since he returned from his trip. I tried hard to ignore this but I just couldn’t shake the feeling that something was off, something was going on and I wanted to
DAMIEN’S POV I hadn't even gotten the chance to pack my things before I left, Lukas hadn't given me enough time to gather my thoughts or even plan what my next move would be. I was however able to speak to Charles briefly and let him know what had happened to me. I honestly didn't know where to go and it wasn't like I had many options. I had no choice but to go back where I had ccome from. I couldn’t go back to Jack’s pack beause I was unsure of how he would feel if he knew that the woman that he had so badly wannted was actually my mate and I was willing to kill anyone who tried to stop me from being with her. I honestly felt like meeting Elena and spending time with her had brought out the alpha in me and i was ready to challenge anyone who tried to tried to seperate us.However, the last thing I wanted was to be hunted by him too. I didn’t believe that Lukas would just allow me to go free after finding out that Elena was my mate and I also knew his secret. I was convinced that he
DAMIEN’S POV“It hurts …” Elena cried out as I tried to keep her calm.She had been in pain for a while now and I was beginning to wonder if thus was the way it was supposed to be. A part of me felt like she was going to die because I had never seen anyone in as much pain as she was in right now. I didn’t even know how to help her or where to touch her. I was too afraid that if i touched her in the wrong place I would hurt her even more “Where is the fucking doctor?” She shouted at me almost damaging my eardrum.“HE is on his way” I said as I helped her lay down again while sending another mind link to the doctor. I couldn’t understand what was taking him so long. He responded to my mind link and told me that he was on his way.After a few minutes he was in our bedroom checking Elena’s pulse. “is she going to be okay? Is this supposed to be happening? Is she supposed to be in his much pain?” I interrogated him but he ignored me“doctor, is the baby okay? Will they both be oka
ELENA’S POV I couldn’t believe that I was actually here and in my mother’s arms. I had missed being held by this woman more than I cared to admit. I missed hearing her voice and being calmed down by her. I had even forgotten that she was once the centre of my world, I had forgotten that she was once a god in my eyes. I couldn’t even believe that I had allowed Lukas to make me hate my own m0ther, but now that I was here I wanted to make up for all the time that we had lost while we were away from each other. Despite being in my mother’s arms, I still couldn’t help noticing that there was someone missing her there. It was my father. I wondered if he didn’t want to see me after all, had I come all this way only to be rejected by him again?” He is inside and I promise you he has the same fears that you have” my mother said and I smiled nervously.“alpha Damien, thank you so much for reuniting us with our daughter. We never thought that we would see her again but life is full surprises.”
DAMIEN’S POVI really hoped that seeing her little sister would make Elena reconsider her feelings for her parents. She needed to forgive them not only for her sake but also for the pups that we were going to have in the future. It was as if I only existed to make this woman happy because the look on her face when she laid her eyes on her sister was enough to get me smiling all throughout the day. When Tasha and Elena were done with their meeting, I asked Charles to take Tasha back home because I wanted to go and hear from Elena how their meeting had gone. I already knew how the meeting had gone because I could hear them laughing as Elena walked her little sister out of the bedroom. Even without seeing her, I already knew that she was very happy.I was glad that seeing her little sister made Elena realise that she needed her family as much as they needed her. I had no family and I wished I had one. I didn’t want her to wait until it was too late before she made amends. Admittedly, her
DAMIEN’S POV I was happy to finally be able to take Elena home with me. We had been apart for too long and it was also time for me to help ease her pain. She had already been through a lot and I just wanted her to get a break. I missed sewing her all happy and I missed seeing her smiling. Ever since Lukas had found out what was happening between me and Elena, things hadn't been smooth for us. First he had kicked me out of the pack and soon after that he ran away with Elena. However, that was now all after under the bridge and everything in order now, well everything except Elana’s health.I had chosen to move me and Elena to a different room because I decided she wouldn’t want to stay in the same room that she shared with Lukas. I didn’t even want to imagine the kind of memories she had in there but I didn’t want her to relive anything. I wanted the old bedroom to be turned into my new office and I wanted Elena’s bedroom to be joined with another room so that we could make it into ou
ELENA’S POVI had passed out sometime in the car as we made our way back to the pack. I felt like I could rest easy knowing that I was now back in the arms that I was supposed to be in. I still felt bad for the way things had ended with Lukas but there was nothing that I could do to handle that situation. I still felt that he had changed and that he regretted his actions but it seemed that I was the only one who believed that. I was saddened by the way Damien had turned into a monster just get get revenge on Lukas, but at the same time, I could understand his pain and who was to say that if he hadn't killed Lukas he wouldn’t come after me after I was well. I had to be honest with myself and the truth was that I knew that I would never have felt safe if I knew that Lukas was out there roaming free. I would have lived my life looking over my shoulder and afraid that he would come after me.When I woke up I was in the back clinic and although I was still in pain from the heat, I felt a l
DAMIEN’S POVNow that Lukas was dead, Elena and I could finally move on with our lives in peace. We left his body lying there in his yard and figured that some stray animal would get rid of it for us. I decided to believe Mike when he said that he hadn't told Lukas that we were coming but at the same time I made a mental note to keep a very close eye on him. Mike was not to be trusted and there was no way that I was going to give him a position that was going to make him close to me. I wanted to keep him as far away from me as possible for the sake of my peace of mind.As we made our way back to the mansion, Charles was the one that took over the well because I wanted to sit at the back with Elena. She looked horrible and instead of the sweet scent that I could recognise her by, she smelled like death was hovering above her. Even if she was in heat, how the hell was I going to help her and where the fuck was I even going to start? Lukas had really fucked things up for us and I wished
LUKAS’S POVI was struggling to understand why Mike had done this and why he had betrayed me in the way that he had. Had I ever done anything to him that made him think angry? Had I ever treated him unfairly? I couldn’t think of anything that I had ever done to him that could ever justify all that he had done to me. I had treated him like a brother that I had never had, but I guess he never appreciated that. Here was Mike, a guy that I had treated like my second in command standing over me with Damiena and Charles, the men that wanted me dead. I could understand why Charles hated me, especially after what happened to his father, but how could Mike do that?Charles and Damien kept interrupting my conversation with someone I had considered a brother for such a long time I chose to ignore them. I wanted Mike to answer me before I died so that I would die knowing exactly why he had chosen to betray me like this.“why Mike?” I asked him again.“I didn’t have a choice, Lukas” he finally sai
DAMIEN’S POVAlthough I was very happy that we had finally arrived where Lukas was keeping Elena, I was very disturbed when I saw him walking out with her in his arms. My wolf immediately went crazy and I clenched the gun that I was holding. Why the hell was he carrying her and what had he done to her? The fact that he was carrying her drove me crazy, but when my eyes met with hers I realised that something was seriously wrong with her. I couldn’t help feeling like she was trying to communicate something with me but just couldn’t figure out what it was. She kept looking at me and then at Lukas. At some point, whenever looked at Lukas it seemed that he said something to her and I wished I was a fly so that I could hear what, he was telling her. He had better not have been threatening her because there was no way that he was going to escape this today. This had been something that was long time coming0 and he now had to face the consequences of the decisions that he had made. I hoped t
ELENA’S POVI was slowly fading and when I opened my eyes I met Lukas' own eyes filled with sorrow. He seemed to have been crying and even though I was the one knocking very loudly on death's door, I couldn’t help feeling sorry for him. I wanted to tell him that he didn’t have to do this, but I was too weak to even open my mouth. For a minute I couldn’t remember what was happening and I couldn’t even recognise where I was. It was upon seeing Lukas's face that I remembered that he had kidnapped me yet again after finding out that Damien was my mate. When was this ever going to end?“Water...” I whispered and he gently touched my lips and then got up and got a glass of water with a straw. I didn’t realise how weak I was until I tried getting up to take the glass of water.“You are weak” he said as he got closer to my lips with the glass of water. I took a sip and then rested on the pillow. Lukas stared at me before he finally started speaking.“I am so sorry for putting you through this
