Naomi's POVTears rolled down my cheek as I felt my skin burning intensely. "If you really love him as you claim then why don't you confess to him!" I shouted. "You of all people will not understand what it takes to love a man who doesn't show affection towards you!" Aurora retorted. "Then why are you doing this to me? It's better to kill me than watch me suffer! Aurora, you don't have to do this. All you have to do is just free me and let me go then I will never come back. I promise. I don't know why you helped me up to this moment but if you really hated me from the beginning then why did you assist me while I was in prison? Why did you ask me to sleep with him when you know that I'm pregnant with someone else's baby? Did he put you up to it?! Answer me?! Argh! Did he?!" The scorching sun intensified the pain.The Sun was effective as a result of the wolfsbane beside me which was killing the little strength Nolly used within me. " If you patronize me from now till the next day n
Hunter's POVEveryone has gone back to their lives and no one was out looking for Naomi. It was like nothing had occurred. They forgot that someone was missing. Elsa had left the palace now it's been months. I could hear my brothers eating and laughing with my father in the dining hall. Anger struck me as I left my room and motioned towards the dining hall flinging the door open. "You all are heartless! You have the guts to eat and smile when Naomi is out there! We don't even know if she's alive or dead. And you…you…all sit here…to eat?!" I stuttered trying to hold my tears. "Are you mad?! Have you suddenly gone nuts?! Can't you see that father is here with us?!" Logan reprimanded dropping the cutleries he was holding as he stood up looking at me from a distance. "And so? We should die because we cannot find her? Is she even worth looking for in the first place? Does she tell you she wants to be found? Why did she run off in the first place?! Is that why you badged in here and disr
Naomi's POV It's been months since I left the palace and more months since I've had sex with Alpha Magnus. And it has equally been months since I've pretended that the baby growing inside of me was his. Aurora, who could have let the cat out of the bag, was killed by Magnus before I regained consciousness. ***FLASHBACK***I opened my eyes and I realized that I was already lying in bed. "Stay still. Don't move." A masculine voice spoke a bit far from me. "Where am I?" I queried, surveying the room with my vision still blurry. "You don't need to stand up now the doctor is still attending to you." He warned. "Why are you helping me?" I started laying still on my bed as I felt the pain from the sunburn still radiating on my skin. "I asked Aurora to train you. I did not ask her to beat you up to a pulp." He explained. "I thought that was what you wanted, "I replied with confusion etched on my face. "That's what I wanted partially. I just wanted you to be trained enough. I'm aware
Naomi's POV Before I knew what was going on. I was placed on the birthing pavement waiting for the werewolf doctor as I felt sweat dripping from my head to my neck down to the clothes I was putting on. I don't even know where I was anymore. In no time my clothes became wet and my hair all tumbled as a result of me fondling with it. "Where's the werewolf doctor?!" Magnus confronted the guard, demanding answers. "He's coming… I was trying to…" A loud slap echoed, silencing him. "You must be very stupid for coming here without accompanying the werewolf doctor here. Lock him up and bring the werewolf doctor to me now! Let him know that his attention is urgently needed by me." Magnus commanded, pacing anxiously."Arggh!!! What are you all doing?! Get the fucking werewolf doctor I'm tired! Magnus!" I screamed and slammed my hand on the pavement causing a part of it to break into pieces. "Is he not here yet?! Fuck! Hey, baby." Magnus insisted, rushing toward me, but I pulled away."Don'
Naomi's POV I tried to breathe but the second baby wasn't coming. It was like the whole universe was against me. "Ah!" I cried as I clenched my fist. "Just chill. You did the first one. You can do the second one." Nolly pet me. "This is torture. This is too much." I whimpered. "You could have just killed me okay? This is too much for me to bear!" I cried out into the air."What are they waiting for? Why is the werewolf doctor now attending to you?" Nolly unexpectedly dubbed me back to reality as I looked at Magnus who was gaping at me like I was some sort of abomination. "Do you want me to go ahead?" The werewolf doctor asked Magnus, who was glimpsing angrily at me with the baby in his hand crying vigorously. "Please attend to me! I cannot be like this. I'm getting tired. Other babies are in here. Help, please! Magnus! I thought you said you cared about me a few seconds ago?" I realized something was wrong and so I had to assist myself from this mess. "I thought you didn't ca
Naomi's POVI touched my head and realized I was bleeding. "Don't do this!" I screeched. "You fucking liar from the pit of hell. I took care of you and fed you. This is the best you could do!" He hit my head against the wall causing me to tumble backward. "I…I was…I'm sorry." I begged, my strength waning."You thought I was gonna leave you alone after you made a fool out of me? You think I'm that stupid to allow you to get away with it?! Hell no! I killed the woman I was supposed to make my personal assistance just for you to be my personal maid. And you stand there to talk trash to my face. Guards!" he commanded howling into the air. "The babies are yours, please. I'm not lying. I'm telling the truth." I begged."Oh, the truth? You think I'm gonna believe the nonsense that comes out of your mouth." he darted towards me and tossed me across the room, inducing the babies who started shrieking. "I'm not lying. The babies all belong to you." I kept belaboring the same thing over aga
Naomi's POV I felt a bit weak with my vision becoming obscured. Everything that transpired today was beyond me. It wasn't long before I birthed four kids and I had to face Magnus and his outrage. I would have been frittered along with them if not for the moon goddess. "I think it is Hunter," Nolly shouted. "Yes, yes, he came back for you! Yes!" Nolly screeched with excitement. "Where is my Luna!" Hunter charged as I heard him kill a werewolf guard out of the Magnus's soldiers. "Your Luna? Did you miss your way?!" another guard challenged but what I saw next was his head spinning across the room with blood flowing to my legs. "He…he doesn't recognize us, does he?" Nolly replied. "It's possible. I've never shifted before." I responded in a whisper. "And who the hell are you and what right do you have to enter into my palace and kill my soldiers?!" Magnus howled in anger charging towards Hunter who refused to bulge. "His confidence is so strong. Does he really love you this much?
Naomi's POV Hunter stood up and bowed to his father as he skimmed back at me who tried to adjust myself. "Ah!" I cried out and held my head. "I don't want to!" My mother screamed as the ten-year-old me saw Alpha Alex tug off her pants. "Mmmm…yes…yes…" he moaned and gagged my mom's neck as she struggled to free herself. I suddenly heard a loud bang. "Run, Nao…mi," she screamed but by that time a hand grabbed me behind and all I saw was blood flowing down to the ground. "Mommy!" I yelled, and immediately I got dazed. Immediately my gaze was raised to see his face and sweat dropped from my body uncontrollably. "Naomi, are you okay?" Hunter asked, darting at me frightened. "I…I'm fine…" I responded, giving Alpha Alex an irate look. "Did I do something wrong? Yes. I'm aware that I did badly by not looking for you and I'm sorry about that. I hope you find it in your heart to forgive me. I'm ready to accept you as my daughter and I will treat you like one. I'm now a grandfather to
Naomi's POV My mate explained everything to me as fast as he could and in front of everyone. He knew she needed to sleep around him so he could monitor what she said. He had a lot of sleepless nights but he finally was able to carry it out. They found my sons but they kept them hidden from everyone including me. Hunter was only acting to have her close so she would trust him due to her love. He even made her send off her guards. But unfortunately, they were dead and gone. They were rogue wolves and all they deserved was death. Outsiders were not allowed in the pack. Malia was not able to recall sending them off because Hunter mate sent them off when she was asleep. All this while I thought I was being abandoned by my own I loved not knowing all he was doing was trying to save me the troubles. He was fighting and strategizing in the secret room to defeat the enemy. I smacked this hand playfully with a pout. “Why did you not tell me?” I asked “Malia had her spies everywhere. I did
Naomi's POV I never thought a day like this would ever exist. No one informed me of this happening today and in fact, it did not matter. If they had told me, it would not have changed my mind on the issue. I do not want my mate to be married to anyone else and most especially not Malia. I was close to not attending. I did not want to attend it. Why should I be in attendance? To give my position to that person who did not deserve it? The one person that wanted to watch me be humiliated in front of everyone. I just cannot. I was not going to give my position to a woman that I cannot trust. “She must attend” Malia said to Hunter in front of me “I do not want to” I said, firmly She scoffed and walked away without another word. “Naomi, please attend” Hunter said “Why should I attend? I can't watch you get married to some other lady, Hunter. Don't you see I'm in pain” I tried to explain to him but it fell on deaf ears “Naomi, I know you do not like what is going on but you have to att
Naomi's POV I sat at the back of the building crocheting. I was not so good but I rather do something with my hands or I do not think I would be able to resist, punching Malia until she lost consciousness. It had been days now and she was still at the mansion and I was yet to see my sons. I have not spoken with Hunter either. He loved being around Malia. He went on romantic walks as Malia called it. She made a show to show off during those walks. Not many people cared about them. They were thinking about getting back to their feet after the war and not working at the alpha and his newfound lover. I was being patient with Hunter. He needed to snap out of whatever was going on with him on his own. I could not do anything because Malia was always around him and touching him so much I could hardly stand it. I am still trying to understand what was the point of all of this. If truly I was losing my husband, then I should be able to hold my children. My husband was not there then my chil
Naomi's POV If shocked had a higher word… I was that. Hunter agreed to her plans. Did he hear her properly? She was asking that I be demoted to the rank of ordinary wife to him. I was his wife and his mate. I deserved to be Luna. Not an outsider. He could have tried to negotiate another way. Discarding me was going to give her the chance to walk on me without minding that I too was his wife. He could not look me in the eyes after doing that. He kept dodging my eyesight. Angry, I left the living room, walked up the stairs, and went into my room. I plopped on the bed, my leg going up and down in anxiety. He should have negotiated another way. Not accept her biddings. Would he allow her to mock me more than this in the near future? The door opened and I raised my head to have a look at who it was. I turned my head to the side, ignoring him. Hunter took off his jacket, placed it on the chair then approached me on the bed. He took position at the side I was looking at but I turned to th
I I walked back to my pack feeling assured that my plan had worked. I knew Alpha Silver was taken back and was still in shock about Emilia coming for his head. I laughed hysterically as I walked back into my room. I entered to see that Emilia was gone. " Emmy, are you in there?" I said walking towards the bathroom. "Where the hell is that bitch?" I said in frustration. I looked around and still couldn't find her. I went into the bathtub to have my bath. I heard the door creak open " Is that you, Emilia?" I shouted from the bathroom. Emily immediately came into the bathroom taking off her clothes. " Can I join you?" she saw with a smile " Of course, I checked when I got back and you were gone. Did you go somewhere?" I asked looking at her Emilia was good at hiding things from me I wonder how I was able to know she was planning my demise. Emilia looked at me and I knew she was going to have to lie to my face "Oh, I quickly went out for a walk. I needed to get some groceries too sin
Naomi's POV We finally had him. He surrendered. Even though it had to take the fall of most of the people first before he chose to do it, we still chose to give him a chance. If he was ready to repent and let go of all the bygones then we were ready to accept him with our full chest. However, he would have to be locked up first. Logan chose to take him. But no one expected what happened next. Malvin took out a dagger and stabbed Logan in his arm. We were a few steps away so before we could get to him, Malvin held Logan's head and took his sword to his head. “I am not playing with either of you. It's either you step down or you lose someone. I am not joking” Malvin said with his eyes wide with anger I turned to Hunter and then to the other men. Logan did not try to fight or stop Malvin. He held his arm with a frown on his face. “Are you doing as I asked?” Malvin yelled Logan had enough of this man, he pulled out the dagger and slit his wrist. The one that held the sword he had. Log
Naomi's POVI knew what I had to do. I ran fast with Conor moving beside me. I knew I was stretching him a bit further than he could but I had to push him. We were in danger. We had struggled to get to the end of the hallway but before we took the next hallway, I looked above my shoulder.Only to freeze when I saw what was happening. Hunter stood up with great effort. I could see it but just before he could recover from his throw, a larger man approached him. His sword was ready to dive into Hunter. Hunter stood frozen when the blade got to his stomach.I stretched my hand but then I was shocked to see the man freeze too. We all turned our gaze to the side and a little lower. My boys! I glanced at Conor and he left my hand and ran back to help his brothers. I moved slowly due to shock. My three sons were actually holding down a hefty man. A man six times their height. Even six times meant to be stronger than them but they were able to hold him down. The man kept trying to hit Hunter
Naomi's POVMy eyes instantly filled with tears as I shut it close. Weakness washed over me as I was gripped with fear and pain. My son. I wanted to scream but I paused my lips to stop it. I could not cry. These people should never see me cry but my heart ached.I wanted to tell them. They should have been patient. I would have told them. I knew it was wrong to do so. But if that was to save all of them. I would have begged Malvin. Maybe he would have compassion. He was close to them when things were good.He would be compassionate. That was what I had in mind. But now one of my sons is gone. My body shook with both pain and fear. This was just the beginning. We might lose so many of us. I found it hard to open my eyes.The fear of looking into the eyes of my Hunter. To stare at Conor's lifeless body. I could hear his voice calling me mama. I could still hear his laughter. I could hear his pouting voice when his brothers acted wrongly around him or to him.In my mind's eye, I pictured
Hunter's POVI could not let them win, could I? I kept asking this question while I stared at them. I knew everyone in the room knew I was not strong enough. Aside from the fact that I was covered in blood which could be a result of killing other people, my blood was still gushing out like an open stream.I knew they wanted to have a hold on us. And they actually do. My heart aches watching my son look frightened. My appearance was not what scared him but the man who kept on holding his neck. There was not an iota of conscience in his eye as he held a three-year-old without minding the fear.The man kept telling me to drop my sword. I could not do it. That was my only vantage point. I could not hold a punch. The only thing I had was this sword to cut the arm off or end the person. A fight without weapons on my end was going to end me at this rate.I glanced at Naomi. She pleaded with me with her eyes to do as the man said but she was just frightened. Maybe I could do it. Maybe I could
