Vanessa continued trailing up her hands to his hips again, and then to his back before gliding her hands up and down with one swift move. She felt something wet and thick on her hand. She raised her hand and found it stained with blood which made her gasp in fear.Afraid, Vanessa quickly prompted herself to look at Alexander very clearly. Alexander immediately noticed her change of vibe as she looked towards the direction where her fingers glided through, only to find more blood flowing out of there. Vanessa wondered why Dr Meggie didn't put a bandage on his injury and just then, she saw the ablood bandage on one side. "Ah, don't pay attention to that, Vanessa, let's continue our business," Alexander said in a nonchalant way that infuriated Vanessa. "Get away from me," Vanessa said bluntly. Alexander looked confused for a moment before eventually moving away from her. Vanessa swung her legs down from the bed and instantly walked to the bathroom completely naked.She got to the mirr
As Alexander moved closer to the convocation hall, he could hear arguments going on in the convocation hall. Every step he took reverberated through the walls of the hallway. The clattering of his shoe against the well-tiled floor was signaling his approach to the convocation hall. Once he was close enough, the ruckus calmed down as the statesmen already sensed his presence.As the doors creaked open, the statesmen stood up at once to offer Alexander a respectful welcome.Alexander walked to his seat, and gestured to the statesmen to take their seat. Everybody had a different expression on their face as they sat down in unison, and the meeting began.Statesman Cameron was the first to talk. "I am really disappointed, Alpha Alexander," he began, his voice laced with overstated grief."You didn't state to us that the war against the Blackwood pack was triggered by you and their Luna, Miss Vanessa's actions," Cameron dropped.Small ruckus ensued among the other statesmen before Cameron c
Alexander's heart sank upon the realization of the dangerous situation Vanessa was in. He took Vanessa's flappy hand in his, his fingers trembling against her cold skin."There has to be a solution somehow, a way to save them both," he pleaded, his voice filled with emotion.The doctor nodded, sympathy etching across her face. "I am doing everything I can, Alpha Alexander. I have already started carrying out the necessary research to find an alternative treatment apart from vitamins," she replied.Alexander clenched his fists in frustration. "So what now? Do you expect me to be looking on while she slowly turned to a shadow of herself, all because of a pregnancy? I can't just stand by and look, there has to be something that should be done as soon as possible to save them," Alexander said in frustration.The doctor's expression softened, and she placed a comforting hand on Alexander's shoulder. "I understand your frustration, Alpha Alexander, I won't give up on them," the doctor assur
Alexander's heart shattered as he witnessed Vanessa in pain. He could understand that as an expectant mother, she would develop a strong connection to her baby and anticipate his arrival, but he never expected that she would develop such a deep connection in such a short period of time.However, he couldn't bear the thought of losing her either. He wanted to calm her down and make her understand that the decision is for the sake of her well-being."Vanessa, please listen to me," Alexander pleaded, his voice filled with a mix of melancholy and concern. "I don't wish for anything bad to happen to our baby either. But, we have to consider your well-being."Vanessa sobbed uncontrollably, her body trembling in emotional chaos. "I can't bear the thought of losing my baby, Alexander, this is our future. Please, try to understand."Alexander moved closer to her, wrapping his hands around her trembling body. "Vanessa, nobody is taking our baby away, I promise. We will find a way to save you an
Fear consumed Vanessa, and she started to move frantically about in the water to save herself. Finally, she reached the surface, but she found it hard to move out of the water. She gasped for air as she struggled to stay afloat, her limbs growing weaker with each passing moment. Dread consumed her whole body as she realized that she was alone in the vast ocean. There was no one to offer help, no rescuer around.Just when she thought all hope had been lost, she looked up through the foggy depths and saw a figure. It was the little child, his hands stretching towards Vanessa. Hope surged within her, and she swarm towards him with all the strength she had left within her. "Hold on little one, I'm coming," Vanessa shouted, her voice reverberating through the water.However, as she reached out to grab the little boy's hands. She witnessed the most dreadful sight she had ever seen in her life; the little boy's body twisted and he transformed into a distorted blob of blood and flesh. Frigh
"Alpha Alexander, we can't wait any longer," Elliott said urgently."The Blackwood pack is now growing stronger, and their confidence is increasing day by day. We need to strike as soon as possible to destroy their confidence," Elliott said, his voice filled with urgency."Shhh…" Alexander shushed him, pointing towards Vanessa, and Elliott immediately got his point.Elliott's concerned gaze lingered on Vanessa's pale and tear-stained face, and he couldn't help but direct questions to Alexander."What is happening to her? She looks kind of different, and I can see paleness all over her face," Elliott inquired.Alexander took a deep breath, his mind racing with the heaviness of the revelation he was about to share to Elliott."Elliott, the baby in Vanessa's womb is no ordinary child," Alexander began, his voice low and soft. But I will explain more about it tomorrow, right now you need to treat yourself and freshen up. We will discuss more tomorrow," Alexander said.Elliott nodded, clea
Alexander wasn't done processing his thoughts when his mind suddenly revisited the meeting with his late mother when he was unconscious, and she talked about the activation of paranormal abilities after the birth of his child.He never planned to tell Elliott about it. In fact, he didn't want to tell anyone about it. He wanted it to be exclusively between him and his mother. He then suddenly stood up, feeling dazed by his thoughts. "Elliott, I need to think more about this; there is so much going on in my head, and I am trying to put pieces together," Alexander said, his voice low but audible."Let me go and see Vanessa," he said.Without saying anything, Elliott nodded, comprehending what he meant. Alexander walked out of the meeting room, and moved straight to his chamber, fret and confusion obviously visible on his face.On entering the chamber, It was evident on Vanessa's face that she had been waiting for him. As he walked in, Vanessa looked up at him with a concerned face."Al
Blackwood pack…Lynx slammed his fist on the table in fury. "How did he escape? How is that possible?" Lynx fumed.Lynx became extremely furious, his eyes glistening with rage. "The entire white phoenix pack will be eliminated from the surface of the earth. I, Alpha Lynx, will hit them where it hurts most till they breathe their last," Lynx said, his voice dropping like a toxin, and the council members knew he wasn't joking. Once he sets his eyes on something, he will do everything and anything to achieve it, and he has never failed.His mind raced as he wondered who could have helped Elliott escape. He trusted his soldiers, they have been loyal to him, and are not corrupt. However, he knew that someone clearly helped Elliott."Someone is betraying me. I know that someone helped Elliott to escape. Whoever the person is, I will find out and the person will pay for it. Nobody betrays me and goes scot-free," Lynx said to his council as he concluded the meeting and disbanded everybody.A
