Bas POVDING! DING!! DING!!!The shrill sound of my doorbell jolted me from my deep slumber, piercing through my head like a sharp knife. I groaned, desperately wishing to stay in bed. But the persistent ringing only grew louder and more insistent, refusing to let me ignore it any longer. With a heavy heart, I dragged myself out of bed, limbs heavy and mind foggy from days of self-imposed isolation and numbing intoxication. The weight of guilt sat heavily on my chest as I stumbled towards the door, my steps unsteady from the effects of endless bottles of alcohol consumed in an attempt to drown out the pain and finally for the first time even though it was temporary the human alcohol worked. As I reach the door, a wave of frustration washes over me and I let out a string of curses. Who could it possibly be? I had made it clear to every member of my wolf pack that they were not to contact me. So why was someone disobeying my orders? My words catch in my throat as I swing the door open,

George POV "You couldn't even protect Max. What makes you so sure you can protect me?” Those hurtful words played over and over in my mind. I kept my mind busy with other activities in other to hide the guilt I felt. I should have done something rather than just standing there like a fool What?? I asked confused as I stood in front of the President "You heard me General.”he stated sternly.” A dead body would be given to you and your men by midnight.. you go retrieve the body quietly and bring it back" He said ashamed of his actions as he refused to make eye contact "This isn’t right sir" I managed to say After a moment of hesitation he sighed in defeat and said "We have no other choice" " There's always a choice sir" " So what do you want me to do General?

George POV As much as I yearned to lodge a bullet straight into his skull, I knew such an act would be unwise; he possessed far greater strength than I. Slowly, I lowered the gun to my side. "I wasn't expecting you," I replied, struggling to conceal my anger. "I was in the neighborhood and thought I'd say hi to my in-law," he retorted with a smirk, advancing towards me. "Though it seems you're not too excited to see me. I would have sworn you were about to pull the trigger just now," he observed, studying me intently. Had he caught on to what I was about to do? Was he preparing to attack? The grip on my gun tightened as I mentally prepared myself for whatever would happen next. If I were to die, I wouldn't go down without a fight. But instead of launching an assault, he merely regarded me, his expression inscrutable, before erupting into laughter. "I'm just kidding... You should see the look on your face right now," he exclaimed, patting my back. "That would have been so fo

"Alright Old man, lest see what you've got!" she taunted, her voice filled with playful banter as she feigned a jab towards me. I grinned, pride swelling in my chest as I blocked her attack with ease. "You're getting faster, kiddo, but you still have a long way to go," I teased, launching into a series of quick jabs and feints to keep her on her toes. Her laughter filled the air as we danced around each other, exchanging playful blows. She was growing stronger with each passing day, her reflexes sharp and her movements graceful. But I wasn't about to let her win without a fight. With a burst of speed, I lunged forward, aiming to catch her off guard. But she was ready, sidestepping my attack with ease and seizing my outstretched arm. Before I knew it, she had flipped me onto my back,

Becca's POV"Careful..." Bas whispered, guiding me with gentle hands on my shoulders. He had insisted on blindfolding me for a surprise, and the anticipation was driving me wild."Are we not there yet?" I asked, a hint of impatience in my voice."Patience, love."Finally, we stopped. Bas slowly untied the blindfold. I blinked as my eyes adjusted to the light, and then widened in astonishment as I took in the scene before me. We were standing in front of a beautiful house, nestled beside a picturesque farm. The lush countryside stretched out in every direction, vibrant and serene."Bas..." I breathed, unable to find the words.He wrapped his arms around me from behind, his breath warm against my ear. "You always wanted to have a family in the countryside, so let's start our family together here."My eyes filled with tears, and I tried hard to keep them from falling. Despite the painful fate that awaited us, I had asked Bas for just one month—to live as if everything was perfect, to be

I thought he told you," she said, her voice filled with regret and concern. Her eyes searched mine, desperately hoping for some sign of understanding.When I decided to come over and share the good news with Naomi, I never imagined it would end in such a heartbreaking revelation. Bas had the oak tree, and he didn’t tell me."Becca," Naomi called softly, her hands gently placed over mine. Her touch was warm, but her eyes were clouded with worry.I forced a smile, trying to suppress the pain that threatened to overwhelm me. "It's fine. I'm sure he was going to tell me... eventually."Naomi still looked at me, her eyes brimming with concern. "He just needed it to stop Darius. He... never said anything about using it on... himself."My heart skipped a beat at the thought. No, I would never let him do that.I smiled a

Becca's POVI stared at the lingerie on my body. I had just bought, a smile spreading across my face as I imagined Bas’s reaction when he saw me in it. He's going to be so shocked, I thought, a giggle escaping my lips at the idea of his expression.Just then, the doorbell rang, and I rushed downstairs, butterflies fluttering in my stomach as I struck a sexy pose. "Come in," I called, my voice filled with anticipation.The door opened, and as soon as Bas walked in, I let my robe fall, revealing the black lace lingerie I had picked out just for him."Be... wow," he stammered, his eyes widening as he took in the sight of me. His gaze darkened with desire, his lips parting slightly."I thought I..." My words trailed off, and my eyes widened in horror as I saw my mom and Lola standing there behind him. "Mom!" I yelped, scrambling to pick up my robe and cover myself, my face bright red with embarrassment.My mom's eyes were wide with surprise, her mouth slightly open as she tried to process

Bas POVDarius glared at me, his eyes filled with rage as he struggled to get up. The poison had spread, rendering him completely weak, almost human. "The poison won't kill you," I said, my voice steady. "It's just going to make you forever weak. This is your punishment for all the sins you've committed."I turned to leave but stopped in my tracks. No matter how monstrous he was, he was still my father, and I couldn't bring myself to kill him. "Get out of here and never come back. I'll tell the pack I flung your body deep in the sea."This was my last act of kindness, not for the defeated Alpha, but for my father.Suddenly, Darius burst into laughter, the sound echoing through the forest. I turned to look at him. "Oh, as always, you're so weak, boy," he said, managing to get up and resting against a tree. "Do you really think I'll just remain quiet and watch as you jeopardize everything I've worked for? I'll come for you."I turned away, not wanting to see him in this state. He was al

Bas POV"Tell me it's a lie," Becca said, her voice quivering as she stared into my eyes. Her face was pale, her eyes wide with fear and disbelief."Please tell me that you didn't just accept a death duel with Darius.""Becca, I—""Bas, how could you? I just told you I was pregnant, and now you want to risk your life in this godforsaken fight?""Becca, look at me," I said, taking her hands in mine. Her fingers were cold and trembling. "I need you to trust me... I'm not going to die. Everything I'm doing is to protect you, to protect us."I rested my forehead against hers, feeling the warmth of her skin and the weight of her worry. "I love you.""I love you too," she whispered, tears spilling down her face. Each tear felt like a dagger to my heart."Promise me... you'll come back," she pleaded, her voice breaking."I promise," I said, wrapping my arms around her. We held each other tightly, the world outside fading away for a moment. Her body shook with silent sobs, and I tried to memo

Bas POVMy hands kept trembling as I stormed out of the room. I couldn't bear to see Becca, to witness the hurt in her eyes caused by my reaction. Shame and self-loathing surged within me; I had acted so poorly, so recklessly. I knew this moment would come, and I hated myself more for allowing it to happen.I needed to escape, to release the turmoil inside me. Walking into the woods, I shifted to my wolf form. With a loud howl that echoed through the trees, I ran deeper into the forest, Becca's words haunting my mind."We're going to be parents."No. I can't lose her. I just can't.I came to a stop in a small clearing and shifted back to my human form. My breaths were ragged, my body trembling as I fell to the ground, tears streaming down my face. The grief and fear were overwhelming, and I couldn't contain the flood of emotions any longer."Sam," I whispered, my voice breaking as my hands touched his grave, the cold stone beneath my fingers grounding me in the moment.

Becca's POVI had waited all day to finally tell Bas. I surfed the Internet, watching videos of people surprising their partners with the good news, but eventually, I decided on a simple and heartfelt approach. I wrote it on a piece of paper, tucking the note into an envelope.I dressed up prettily, and for the first time, as I stared at my reflection, there was no fear—only joy. Despite knowing my time was limited, the thought of our child washed away all my pain."I didn't know if you wanted the whole ch—" Bas's words trailed off, his eyes widening as he took in my appearance.Dropping the grocery bags, he walked towards me, his gaze filled with awe and confusion.
