Her lips trembled as she kept trying to shove Dave away from her. Her mumbling was slurred and incoherent. Although he couldn't hear the whole thing clearly because her crying disguised what she was saying, it was about how much she hated him and how he was so evil.She was not okay. As her blankness when he yelled at her slowly receded and other emotions surfaced, he finally knew. She was so scared to death that she couldn't even make clear words come out of her mouth. Dave loosened his grip on her body, and she used the opportunity to try to run from him. Her efforts were in vain as he swiftly grasped her,"Stay still." He held her body tightly. Afraid that she disappears at any moment. Dave could still feel her sobbing. He lost all his words, what he should have said to her. It was all lost as soon as he heard her cry. Dave was so confused and scared. He didn't think what he did would end up hurting her. "I don't want to talk to you," she finally replied.He didn't say anything
"What?" Kiara found it hard to believe what Rosemary was saying. Silas was the mastermind of the biggest trauma in her life, he kidnapped her and kept her in his pack to make her his Luna. He claimed to love her, that they were meant to be. But all the things he did to her did not depict love at all. He only wanted her because he was after the power she had.He never loves her and never has genuine feelings toward her. He didn't even care about her grief, and he teamed up with Angeline, which ended up making Kiara lose her baby. She would never forget about that.She hadn't heard about Silas since Dave had managed to bring her back to the Pureblood pack. But Kiara was sure that her business with Silas wasn't over yet. Sooner or later, she would have to face him again eventually, but she was grateful for the peace she had for the time being. Hearing that the man she hated the most was already dead gave her a jumbled mix of emotions. "How?" How did that happen? She didn't think a m
The timing of this part is two months after the previous part. Enjoyy~The storm hit so early and so unpredictably that most of them had very little time to prepare and were left rushing to save themselves and their loved ones.If Dante and Angeline had planned their attack, they chose the perfect time during Kiara's late pregnancy. Just a few days before the heir to the Pureblood Pack would be born, the first child of Dave Malion. Unfortunately for her, when she needed him by her side the most, he was not there. He left her under the protection of the manor and the pack alone. "You must be strong, Kiara. Promise me that you will be strong for me, and our child."She still vividly remembered his last words, which left a hollow in her heart. The agony tormented her. How do I tell him that she doesn't want him to leave her? She wanted to tell her husband about how she felt, that she was so weak, and that if they were apart, it would only make it worse. "Say it, my Luna.""When...?"
It was too long to wait for Gwenna's assistant to arrive and get everything set up. Kiara felt an irresistible urge to push, she would do anything to make the pain in her stomach go away. Three maids hurried into the room, and two of them helped her stand. The guard carried Macaine Malion out, and the door slammed shut.The cramp made her breath labored, and she threw her weight on the sofa. Someone's voice coached her to catch her breath."We should take her to her room! We'll need a bed," Rosemary urged Gwenna. "No- yes, if she can still walk."The wave of pain subsided drastically, and she gritted her teeth. She had no voice and made everyone panic."Kiara?"As the contractions came again with an incredible amount of pain, she screamed so loudly that her throat felt torn. Amidst her screams, she heard the panicked shouts of the maids."Hurry up! Hurry!" "Get me a wheelchair!" Kiara fell onto a sofa. Sweat damped her hair and temples, and she gripped anything, so tightly that
Dave arrived at the manor alone; Daniel and the others are still in the packhouse. He was greeted by Gwenna at the entrance. "You're back! thank goodness!" She trotted towards him, followed by Rosemary, who had a bright smile on her lips. His heart was instantly flooded with relief to see that his people seemed to be in good condition. "Where is she?" "She's in her bedroom." Gwenna immediately knew who Dave was asking about. "She doesn't know you will be arriving today. But it's good! It'll be a surprise for her. Be careful, Dave, don't shock her too much." Before he stepped inside, he thanked Rosemary and Gwenna for all they had done in his absence. In the main hall, several servants greeted him and said congratulations as soon as they saw him. They thanked all of them. He had stopped by the packhouse earlier to clean up and change, there was no way he would meet his wife with the remaining blood of his enemy still on his clothes.Dave arrived on the upper floor and went straig
Kiara was quickly standing to her feet as Macaine aimed for Acadia's bassinet. Her sleepy eyes vanished in an instant and were replaced with alertness, as though she was about to grab Acadia from her place when Macaine stopped next to the bassinet."Mom," he called out to his mother. Inevitably, the same vigilance that his wife felt lit up in him. Even though he had already been informed that his mother was coming to the manor and he was sure Macaine wouldn't dare do anything to his daughter, he couldn't help but feel suspicious towards her. But Dave tried to push the feeling away. After all, Acadia was Dave's child, and the Malion's heir, Macaine, wouldn't do anything to hurt her. "Is she sleeping?" Macaine asked instead, ignoring the subtle warning tone in her son's voice. She watched the sleeping baby intently. "She's quick to fall asleep when she's full; it's best not to wake her. I'm worried she'll wake up late at night, and Kiara will have to feed her in the middle of the ni
Acadia's crib was in a room directly connected to Kiara's room and only separated by a single door. Every minute, Kiara felt the urge to check on her, making sure she was safe. On top of the crib hung three birds that would make a chirping sound when blown by the wind, and Acadia would giggle jolly not be able to take her eyes off of them while awake. The hanging nightingale was now spun softly by Kiara's fingers. The baby was fast asleep now, her soft breathing steady and her tiny lips slightly parted. Kiara spent more time admiring her daughter before reluctantly getting up. It was late, and she should be sleeping, but instead of going to her bed, she headed to the kitchen downstairs. She grabbed a cup, took a spoonful of black tea and honey, and then filled the cup with hot water. After making the tea to Dave's liking, she took it upstairs to his study. Remembering the message from Daniel this morning that she had to talk to Dave about this right away makes her a little bit n
The day they brought Acadia to the pack has finally arrived for the very first time. The baby is now one month and three weeks old, a little later than the age at which the naming ceremony should have been held.Only pack members would attend the celebration—someone who is not from the Pureblood pack, only Rosemary and Lana. Kiara invited Lana only after she got permission from Dave. "Are you sure you want to invite your friend?" Dave asked her, sounding a little unsure of Kiara's decision to invite the human. Lana would be coming alone, as Hannah was unable to attend. "Yeah, I'm sure. She's happy to come," Kiara reassured him. Dave stared at his mate quizzically and said, "But isn't she a human, Kiara?"His words brought Kiara's full attention to him. For a few moments, she was left dumbfounded by what he said. She calms herself. She knew he meant well; it wasn't because he hated having humans at his daughter's naming ceremony. "Yes, Lana is a human, Dave. But she's my friend, and
