Naomi's POVHunter's hand welled down my shoulders as he skimmed at me in shock."Guards!" He yelled and lots of them came rushing to the hallway. "Have any of you seen Malia?" We challenged them together. "No, Alpha. No Luna." They chorus. "Make sure that nobody leaves the palace; everywhere must be sealed right now!" Hunter gave the order and sped off faster towards the right while I used the left. "What do you think she's up to?" I questioned Nolly. "Honestly I have no idea. Malia has been a very good person and honest to the core but if she changes now I can't say what caused it or why she did." Nolly replied. "Why would she take what I value most? My kids?! Fuck! I can't believe I had a conversation with her not too long ago. We had fun and we also played. What is going on inside that thick skull of hers? I've been suspecting her for months. Do you think Malia will betray me?" I ran faster asking Nolly who went silent."Nolly, are you even listening to me? Do not try to di
Gabriel's POV The pain of being banished from the palace by my brother stung me like a bee and I vowed to come back for revenge. "Does he think he owns the palace? Father made a mistake by giving it to him because it belonged to me in the first place. Everything he has belongs to me including his Luna. She was my mate at first and I deserve to be in that position, not him. I worked for my father while everyone lived a normal life. I became a murderer. And father says he's disappointed in me and sees Hunter as the right person to take over the throne?! This is not happening!" I shouted and hit the tree. Suddenly I heard the trees rumbling. "Who is there?" I quickly hid myself not knowing that I'd been seen. A hand touched me from behind and before I could say any word I was hit badly and crashed to the floor. "Who the hell are you and what are you doing in our territory?" A masculine husky voice emerged over me while I tried to defend myself but I couldn't."My name is…'' My visi
Gabriel's POV I tremble at the pronunciation of his name and how fierce his eyes were. "Have you heard of the Gold Pack?" I looked at his face carefully before proceeding. "I am one of the quadruplets princes of the pack and my father is Alpha Alex who passed away a couple of days ago," I spoke with fear instilled in me. "Alpha Alex? Gold pack? Hmmm…" scrutinized me as I tried to hold my fears. "Now I remember him. Are you telling me right now that your father is dead? How come I cannot identify you because the last time I saw him, he had just two kids…how come you…" he lingered and charged towards me. "If I found out that you are lying you would be sorry for it." He quipped my neck as I held the pain. "And why would I lie about it? It is my title and it is who I am. We don't walk with our father, just our mother alone. Myself and Hunter which was why you saw just Logan and Ethan the day you were around." I clarified without evidence. "If I'm lying then how did I know the name o
Gabriel's POVOn my way following the rogue guard behind I knew that I was not safe but I wanted to enjoy every pleasure that came with me winning his argument. "You promise that you're going to take care of me if you could get past my boss." The guard started. "Yes, I remember and I'm sticking to it." I smiled. "And how do you intend to do that when you don't have anything to offer?" He released his grip on me. "Since your boss wants me to enjoy myself tonight why don't you join me and let me repay the favour?" He laughed. "And what if I got caught in the act? Do you want me to have my head hung in the market square? No way man that's not happening." He answered back and soon we were in the guest room. "What is the name of your Pack or you are just known for being rogues?" I asked settling down into the couch not too far from me. "The rogues don't have names like the legitimate ones we all just come together and form a pack." He demonstrated, dragging me out of the couch and
Gabriel's POV I never realized when I slid it into the water and a touch jolted me out of my sleep. "The table is set for you." She whispered and I could swear I almost had a boner. This lady is half-naked. "Is anybody here with us or is it just us?" I asked to clarify if I could grab her after the food. "It's just us. And I'm here to give you whatever style you want afterward" She responded—the last statement though. I got out of the water and grabbed a towel to clean my body before putting on my pants.I never realized that the food that would be served would look much more appetizing than I was thinking since they don't have much so the food wouldn't be as delicious and radiant as the one I used to have back in the Gold Pack. But it turned out that I was wrong. "Are we having a feast for a king?" I put off the towel I was using to scour my face to have a clear look. "You are a guest and this is how we treat one or do you want us to return the food and give you what slaves e
Gabriel's POV The cold breeze which blew on me from the window woke me up from my sleep. With my eyes still shut I scoured for Tasha but I realized that I couldn't reach her. "Tasha?" I called but I didn't hear anything and this made me yank the bed sheet off and sit upright. Knock! Knock!!Knock!!!"Who is it? Do you mind coming back later? I'm feeling a bit sleepy?!" I spoke rudely to the person at the door. Knock! Knock!!"Can you just stop doing that? I already told you that I want to get more rest!" I barked. "And does this look like your father's Palace?!" My eyes doubled in size when I heard that and I quickly got out of bed. "Oh." I placed my palm on my eyes and wore my shorts. "Come in. The door is open." I answered and waited for Callus."You really seem to enjoy the whole setup from yesterday," Callus answered by tapping me. "I really appreciate it but where is the lady that I slept with?" The first question that I asked Callus left a surprised expression on his
Gabriel's POV Immediately I was given a horse I set out and started to retrace my way back to the palace. The thought of my brother graveling and being under my feet kept running through my mind as I laughed evilly. I never cared about my other brothers because I realized that no one cared about me and couldn't even stop him after issuing such commands to me. I do not mind having them all succumb to my feet. It took me a day since I decided not to stop and get a nap all through the journey. I was able to get back to my Pack In the middle of the night. I lingered outside the palace and I was looking for a way to sneak inside when luck shined on me. I saw a woman in a cloak leaving the Pack in the middle of the night and so I traced her. The journey was a bit long and I wondered what made her come this far. She entered into a cave and soon she stopped and laid herself down only to start a foreplay.Immediately she went naked and started to make herself feel like a woman without ha
Naomi's POV After what happened that day I found it difficult to trust Malia anymore. But I decided to be a bit lenient so I won't lose my sworn sister for something I'm not sure about. "Baby, why aren't you sleeping?" Hunter spoke from behind and reached for me where I was. "I just feel happy because today is our children's birthday party and it feels so unreal. I cannot believe it's been three years." I turned to Hunter and pecked him. "Everything happened because you stayed with me. I've only gotten this far because you never left me. I promise that I will always be there for you no matter what may happen. And I will make sure that my children never end up like myself and my brothers did. I love you, Naomi." Hunter hugged me from behind and I embraced him as well. "I never imagined that I could have this beautiful marriage with you, Hunter. Thank you so much for showing me that true love exists. I've given up on Love and finding a man for myself when you showed up. I'll al
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
