Rohan's POVI sat in front of the computer, my eyes scanning the screens as I searched for any lead on the missing triplets. As the Alpha of my pack, it was my duty to protect our children- The Children of our pack, and I had failed.The computer room was quiet, except for the hum of the machines and the occasional beep. I was so focused on my search that I didn't even notice the time passing. My mind was consumed by thoughts of the triplets and the other missing children. Where were they? Who had taken them?As I searched, my mind wandered to Valerie. I couldn't believe I had kissed her. It was a moment of weakness, and I regretted it. Not because I didn't enjoy it - I did. But because it complicated everything. I wasn't ready for another complication between both of us, especially not with Valerie knowing I was trying to get on her good side. And then there was Diana. I didn't even want to think about her right now. Our relationship was still on edge, and she still needed to come t
Valerie's POVI couldn't shake off the feeling of unease as I went about my day. There was a new Alpha in town, one who was desperately searching for his missing children. I had heard rumors of his arrival, but I hadn't expected to feel a pang of worry. After all, our pack's children were also missing, and we had yet to find any leads.But it wasn't just the fact that our pack's children were missing that bothered me. It was the memory of Rohan's kiss, the way my heart had raced when our lips touched. I had tried to brush it off as a moment of weakness, but deep down, I knew it was more than that. I had felt a connection with Rohan, a spark that I couldn't ignore.And now, with this new Alpha, Helios, joining forces with Rohan to find their children, I couldn't help but feel a sense of trepidation. What did it mean for our pack? For our children? Would we be able to find them before it was too late?I thought about my own kids, their bright smiles and curious eyes. I would do anything
Rohan's POVI sat beside Helios in the computer room, my eyes scanning the lines of code on the screen in front of me. But my mind wasn't on the task at hand. It was on Valerie.I couldn't shake off the feeling that she wasn't settled yet. Diana had been looking for every way to make Valerie look bad, to discredit her in front of the pack. But I knew Valerie, I knew she wasn't capable of the things Diana was accusing her of. She was kind, gentle, and fiercely protective of her children.As I typed away on the keyboard, my thoughts drifted back to the way Valerie's eyes sparkled when she smiled, the way her hair fell in loose waves down her back. I had to admit, I was drawn to her. But I couldn't let my feelings get in the way of the task at hand. We had to find the missing children.But Diana's words kept echoing in my mind. "Valerie is a threat to our pack." I knew it wasn't true, but a part of me wondered if there was more to Diana's story than I knew. She was Nice and the next mome
Valerie's POVI walked beside Rohan, my heart racing with excitement and a hint of fear. We were finally going to find the children, and I couldn't wait to see them safe and sound. The tracker had led us to an abandoned warehouse on the outskirts of town, and Rohan had insisted on coming with me.As we approached the building, Rohan's hand brushed against mine, sending a spark of electricity through my body. He didn't pull away, instead, he intertwined his fingers with mine, giving my hand a gentle squeeze."I'm not going to let anything happen to you," he whispered, his eyes scanning the surrounding area.I smiled, feeling a sense of safety with him by my side. "I know," I replied, my voice barely above a whisper.We entered the warehouse, our footsteps echoing off the walls. Rohan pulled me closer, his arm wrapping around my waist."Stay close," he whispered, his eyes scanning the shadows.I nodded, my heart pounding in my chest. I knew he was trying to protect me, and I appreciated
Rohan's POVI couldn't wipe the smile off my face as I watched Valerie and the triplets settle into my home. We had done it. We had found them, safe and sound.As I looked at Duncan, Marcus, and Andreuis, I felt a sense of pride and joy. They were my children, and I had protected them.Valerie caught my eye, and I saw the happiness and gratitude there. I knew that I had made her happy, and that was all that mattered.Just then, my phone buzzed. Diana's name flashed on the screen, but I didn't care. Nothing could ruin my mood today.I ignored the call and turned back to Valerie and the children. We were going to enjoy this moment together."Let's get some food and rest," I said, smiling at Valerie. "We've got a lot to do."Valerie nodded, smiling back at me. "Thank you, Rohan. For everything."I shook my head. "No need to thank me. I'm just glad we found them."As we sat down to eat, I couldn't help but feel a sense of contentment. This was what I had been searching for. A family, a ho
Rohan's POVI couldn't shake off the feeling of excitement and nervousness as I thought about my plan. I was going to make Valerie my second mate, and I knew it wouldn't be easy. But I was determined to make it happen.I had already failed her once, but I wasn't going to let that happen again. I was going to do everything in my power to prove myself to her, to show her that I was worthy of her love and trust.I started making a mental list of all the things I needed to do. First, I needed to talk to my pack, to let them know that I had found my true mate and that I would be taking a second mate. I knew some of them might not understand, but I was the alpha, and I had to follow my heart.Next, I needed to find a way to win Valerie's trust back. I knew I had hurt her deeply, but I was willing to do whatever it took to make it right. I would give her space, let her come to me when she was ready.And then, there was the matter of the triplets. My beautiful, precious triplets. I was going
Diana's POVI sat in the dimly lit room, my heart racing with anger, frustration, and annoyance. How could Rohan be so reckless, so selfish? He was throwing away our relationship, our bond, for that...that...woman and her brats.I couldn't believe his audacity, his nerve. He thought he could just cast me aside, like a used toy, and move on to someone else? Someone who was clearly beneath me?I seethe with rage, my mind racing with thoughts of revenge, of making him pay for his betrayal. How could he do this to me? Didn't he know who I was? Didn't he know my power, my influence?I stood up, my eyes blazing with fury, my hands clenched into fists. I would not be ignored. I would not be cast aside. I would make him regret ever crossing me.But for now, I would wait. I would bide my time, gather my strength, and plan my attack. Oh, Rohan would pay for this. He would pay dearly. But I knew I wasn't Superior to him… I was inferior and I couldn't do anything except for something precious to
Valerie's POV I sat on the floor, surrounded by my three precious triplets, Andreuis, Duncan, and Marcus. They were laughing and playing, completely carefree, and my heart swelled with love and gratitude."Mommy's sorry," I said, pulling them into a tight hug. "I'm so sorry for leaving you all behind. I was wrong to do that."Andreuis, the most sensitive, looked up at me with big brown eyes. “You never left us, mummy?"I took a deep breath, trying to explain. "I left you, sweetie. I'm sorry that I allowed them kidnap you guys, I putted you all in Danger, Mommy's sorry." I said as I lowered my gaze at my failure. Duncan and Marcus shooked in disagreement, and the three of them hugged me tightly."We forgive you, Mommy but you never left us," Andreuis said, his voice muffled against my shoulder.I held them close, tears of joy streaming down my face. "I promise to never leave you again. We're a family, and we'll face everything together."Just then, Marcus looked up at me with a curio
Tasha's POVI fidgeted with my phone, Helios's text still burning in my mind. "Stuck in Alpha's congress meeting. Miss you."My gaze drifted to Alex, chatting with Tracy. Why wasn't he jealous? Didn't he care that I was practically swooning over Helios?I seethed inwardly. How dare he make me jealous and then act nonchalant?That's exactly why I was flaunting Helios's attention – to provoke Alex. I wanted him to crave me, to desire me as much as I desired him.And Helios. Oh, Helios. My love for him ran deep, but my attraction to Alex refused to fade.Why choose between them? I wanted both.That's why I'd instructed Tracy to act reserved and calm around Alex. It was all part of the plan."Tracy, darling, don't flirt with Alex," I'd said earlier. "Let's see how he reacts."Tracy had raised an eyebrow but agreed.Now, watching Alex and Tracy's polite conversation, I smiled to myself. This was perfect.Amber's sudden arrival ruined my fun. She draped herself over Alex, flirting shameless
Alex's POVAs Tasha disappeared into the crowd, Tracy turned to me with a warm smile. "So, Beta Alex, what do you like to do in your free time?"I appreciated her effort to distract me from Tasha's departure. "I enjoy reading, mostly historical fiction. How about you?"Tracy's eyes sparkled. "I'm a fan of mystery novels. I love solving puzzles."Our conversation flowed effortlessly, covering everything from books to music. Tracy was easy to talk to, her thoughts engaging.As we spoke, I couldn't help but notice the subtle differences between Tracy and Tasha. Tracy's calm demeanor, her sharp wit, and introspective nature drew me in, but my heart still belonged to Tasha.Tracy seemed to sense my distraction, her gaze piercing. "You care deeply for Tasha, don't you?"I hesitated, unsure how much to reveal. But Tracy's kind expression put me at ease. "Yes, I do."Tracy's nod was understanding. "She's lucky to have you as a friend, Beta Alex. You're loyal and kind."Her words warmed me, bu
Alex's POVI navigated through the crowd, my mind still reeling from the emotions that threatened to surface earlier. Visiting Tasha seemed like a good distraction, despite the ache it brought. We were friends, after all. I'd long accepted her love for Helios, even if it hurt.I approached Tasha's gathering, her bright smile greeted me. "Beta Alex!" she exclaimed, rushing to hug me."I'm happy to see you too, Tasha," I replied, returning the hug with a calm, reserved nature.Tasha's enthusiasm was infectious, but her friend caught my attention. The curly-haired girl beside her radiated a different energy – poised, confident, and captivating."Tracy, this is Beta Alex," Tasha said, gesturing to her friend.Tracy's eyes sparkled as she extended her hand. "Nice to meet you, Beta Alex.""Nice to meet you, Tracy," I replied, shaking her hand. Her firm grip and direct gaze impressed me.Tasha bubbled over with excitement, recounting stories of her adventures with Helios. I listened attentiv
Rohan's POVI took Diana's hand, and together we stepped onto the raised platform, surveying the sea of faces before us. The crowd quieted, anticipating our announcement."My dear friends and fellow Alphas and pack members" I began, my voice carrying across the gathering. "Tonight, we gather to celebrate a momentous occasion."Diana's smile sparkled beside me."Councilor Evelyn has found her mate," I continued, "and we're honored to witness their union."The crowd erupted into applause, cheers, and whistles."But that's not all," Diana said, her voice melodious. "We're also celebrating new life."She placed a hand on her belly, and I wrapped mine around hers."I'm thrilled to announce that our pack will soon welcome a new addition," I declared.The crowd's cheers intensified, congratulatory shouts filling the air."Diana, our beloved queen, is expecting," I said, beaming with pride.As the crowd's enthusiasm reached a fever pitch, we announced, "Let the celebrations begin!"With our w
Rohan's POVI stood on the training grounds, observing our pack's warriors prepare for the upcoming Pack Riot. Alex stood beside me, his eyes scanning the action as we watched our pack members clash in a flurry of punches and kicks. Amber was unstoppable, taking down her opponent with ease."Amber's a force to be reckoned with," Alex said, nodding toward the skilled fighter."Unsurprisingly," I replied, watching Amber land a flawless kick. Alex chimed in, offering words of encouragement and strategic advice to the trainees."Remember, use your surroundings to your advantage!" he called out. "Keep your movements fluid, anticipate their attacks!" His input was invaluable, and I was grateful for his expertise.As the training session concluded, I called out, "Gather around!" The pack converged, eager for my next words. "Tonight's full moon marks a special occasion – a blissful party for our kind." Cheers erupted, and I continued, "We'll host neighboring packs, and our lands will resound
Helios's POVAs I walked Tasha to her room, I sensed her unease. Despite her attempts to hide it, her tension was palpable. I knew better than to pry, but I couldn't help feeling concerned.We approached the living room, and Tracy came into view. She sat on the armchair, legs crossed, clipping her nails with precision. Her eyes sparkled as she noticed us."Hey, girl!" Tracy exclaimed, dropping her nail clippers and rushing over to Tasha.The two friends embraced, their girly squeals filling the room. Tracy bounced up and down, her blonde ponytail bobbing."Tasha, darling! I've missed you!" Tracy gushed.Tasha forced a smile, but it didn't reach her eyes.Tracy didn't seem to notice, chattering on about her day. However, as she pulled back to examine Tasha's face, her expression turned serious."Hey, what's wrong?" Tracy asked.Tasha shrugged. "Later, girl. I have to rest."With that, she turned and headed upstairs.Tracy's eyes met mine, both of us disappointed."Is everything okay?"
Diana's POVI sank into the plush bed, resting my weary head on the soft pillows. My temples throbbed with a dull ache, a constant reminder of the stress eating away at me. Pregnancy wasn't supposed to be this exhausting. Every day felt like a battle, my body wrestling with fatigue and anxiety.Thoughts swirled in my mind like a vortex. Rohan's Alpha Council meeting dragged on, and I couldn't shake the feeling of unease. What if something happened to him? What if he got hurt?I rubbed my swollen belly, trying to soothe my racing thoughts. Our little one kicked and squirmed, sensing my tension. I took a deep breath, focusing on the gentle movements.But my mind refused to quiet. Alex's behavior worried me. His distant attitude, the mysterious phone calls... Rohan assured me everything was fine, but I knew better. Alex was hiding something.The door creaked open, and Rohan walked in, his expression tired but reassuring."Hey," he said softly, dropping onto the bed beside me.I smiled we
Tasha's POVI excused myself from the gathering, seeking refuge in the quiet hallway. I pulled out my phone and dialed Tracy's number."Hey girl!" Tracy answered on the first ring."Hey!" I replied, relieved to hear her cheerful voice."How's the party?" Tracy asked."It's...complicated," I said, hesitating.But before I could dive into the drama, Tracy squealed, "Oh, guess what? Julian took me to the cutest Italian place last night! He's totally the one!"I laughed, happy for my friend. "That sounds amazing! How's Julian?"Tracy gushed about Julian's charms, and I listened, momentarily forgetting my own worries.When Tracy finally paused for breath, I filled her in on the evening's events – Alex, the blonde woman, and Rohan."Whoa, slow down!" Tracy exclaimed. "A blonde woman? With Alex?"I nodded, even though she couldn't see me. "Yeah, and she's gorgeous. They seem close."Tracy's tone turned serious. "Tasha, be careful. You don't know what's going on between them.""I know," I adm
Tasha's POVI wove through the crowd, determination guiding me toward Helios. His piercing gaze locked onto mine as I approached, the intensity making my pulse quicken."Where have you been?" Helios asked, his deep voice laced with concern and a hint of possessiveness. "I've been searching everywhere. I thought something happened to you.""I was just looking for you," I replied, evading the truth, trying to sound nonchalant despite the turmoil brewing inside.Helios' eyes narrowed, his gaze piercing. "I saw you coming out of a secluded area," he stated, his tone firm but laced with a hint of jealousy. "Who was with you? Was it that Alex guy?"My heart skipped a beat. How did he know? And why did he assume Alex guy?"Let's dance," I suggested, attempting to divert the topic, hoping the music and movement would diffuse the tension.But Helios wasn't having it. His grip on my elbow tightened, his fingers wrapping around me like a vice."Tell me, Tasha," he pressed, his voice low and urge
