"I need you, Elliott. The baby needs you too," Veronica said in a low tone. "Don't go."But Veronica's words fell on deaf hears as Elliott broke free from her grasp and ran after Zoey.As Elliott left, Veronica felt so happy within herself. She didn't care about that for now. All she knew was that she is with Elliott now, and she was more than satisfied with that.She picked up her box and entered Elliott's room. She walked into Elliott's room, taking in the opulent furnishings and expensive art. A smile crossed her lips as she imagined all the things she would do from now on. Elliott ran after Zoey, he held her hand. "Please, Zoey, just let me explain," he pleaded, his voice cracking with emotions. But Zoey pulled away from him, her eyes brimming with tears. "I don't want to hear any of your lies," she said, turning away from him. "How could you do this? You said you love me, but someone else is carrying your child."Elliott went mute at her question, he stood there frozen, unable t
Elliott saw that Veronica had slept off, so he gently got off the bed, not wanting to wake her up, and then headed for the door.He exhaled a long, slow breath, finally being able to relax now that he was away from Veronica.He still couldn't come to terms with what had happened. He had never felt so trapped and helpless in his life. He wished he wasn't drunk that night, and now he had to deal with Veronica for eight whole months, trapped in the same room with her until she gives birth.He looked around the hallway, his eyes adjusting to the lights. He couldn't see anyone as everybody has retired to their rooms. The air was still and quiet as he stood in the hallway. He took another deep breath, trying to calm his racing mind.He wanted to stay outside, as he couldn't go in to stay with Veronica. He had always considered himself a patient person, but the situation at hand was pushing him to his limits. He had to find a way to make it work before he lose his mind completely.As he stoo
The noise of them making love made Veronica stop. Tears welled up in her eyes as she heard them. She knew Elliott never liked her, but the fact that he left her for Zoey when she needed him beside her made her so upset.She knew there was nothing she could do at the moment, even if she open the door right now, that wouldn't make Elliott love her, so she just left.As she walked away, she felt a mix of emotions stirring inside of her. She was so angry and devastated at the same time. Elliott had refused to touch her, but there he was making love with Zoey.She made up her mind that no matter what; she would never leave, and she would do everything possible to use her baby to get the upper hand, and achieve her desires.**********************Alpha Xerxes and twenty-three others arrived at the white phoenix pack. They were the only survivors of their pack, as Lynx and Uncle Toni had come to destroy their pack. They had no choice but to seek help from the head pack.It was a long journey
It's been one week of Xerxes living in the white phoenix pack house mansion. It was a nice morning and the view was awesome. He had been spying and giving Lynx information about what was going on in the white phoenix pack.Lynx had told him that he had something for him to do, but he had been waiting for him to say what it was. Just then, his phone started ringing, and when he looked at his phone, it was Lynx."Good morning," Xerxes greeted, trying his best not to be heard. "I want to show the white phoenix pack a tip of the iceberg today," Lynx said over the phone."What do you mean by a tip of the iceberg?" Xerxes asked."I want a fire attack to happen," Lynx replied."What? That's kind of extreme at the moment," Xerxes said.However, Lynx wasn't having it. He wanted it to happen, no matter what."When do you plan to do that?" Xerxes asked."Tonight!" Lynx said immediately."I will give you more information on how to proceed with it in an hour's time. I have made the preparations,"
"Ahhh," Vanessa winced in pain. "I can't take this anymore, Zoey. Please go get Alexander. I need him right now.""Alpha Alexander!" Alexander heard someone called his name from behind; it was Zeoy, and she looked a bit too worried. "Vanessa's water broke, and she is in labour. She needs you right now." Zoey said.Alexander didn't know what to make of what he just heard from Zoey. "Vanessa must be in so much pain right now." He thought to himself."You can go, Alexander. I will handle everything from here," Elliott said, urging him to go with Zoey.With that, Alexander rushed to the vault where Vanessa was and his heart broke seeing her in so much pain."Al… Alexander," Vanessa called his name, crying. "I don't feel good."Getting closer to her, Vanessa held him so tight that he wished he could take her pains away totally. "Call the doctor, please," Vanessa pleaded, hitting her fist on the wall multiple times. "It hurt so much, Alexander," Vanessa sobbed, tears rolling down her cheek
Alexander rushed out to meet the doctors. He told them what was happening, and they had to rush in with him. He held on to Vanessa's hands."Alpha Alexander, Miss Vanessa is in labour, I think you will have to excuse us," one of the doctors said.But Vanessa squeezed Alexander's hands tight. "Please, don't leave me, Alexander," she cried.Even though, Alexander didn't want to leave Vanessa's side. He had to do what the doctors said. "I'm not leaving you, Vanessa. I'm just going to wait outside for a while," he said.Vanessa's grip on his hand tightened, and her eyes was filled with panic. "Please don't go," she begged, her voice trembling. "I want you here with me."Alexander's heart broke at the sight of her, and he knew he couldn't leave her like that. "But that's what the doctors want," he said."Fine, you can stay, Alpha Alexander," the doctor said. "But many men tend to faint when watching their wives give birth.""That can't be me," Alexander said boastfully.Alexander stood by
Doctor Margaret gently placed the baby on Vanessa's chest, and to her surprise, it was a boy. Vanessa's breath was caught in her throat as he looked at him. Her little pup was perfect with tiny fingers and toes, and a head full of soft hair. She couldn't take her eyes away from him."Where is Alexander?" She asked and looked around. "Well, Alpha Alexander fainted earlier after seeing the baby covered in blood, but he's stable now," Doctor Margaret said.Just then, Alexander walked into the room. Vanessa looked up at him, her eyes filled with joy. "We did it, Alexander. We brought our pup into the world."Alexander leaned in, pressing a gentle kiss to her forehead. "I'm so proud of you, my love. I trust you, you are incredible." He knew the war was far from over, but at least he was happy that they had something to look at and smile about.Alexander then took the baby from Vanessa's hand and held him close to his chest. "Welcome to the world, little one," he whispered.Finally, all t
"What happened?" Alexander asked in frustration."The f*ck just happened here," Elliott uttered.Elliott's thought drifted to the way he fought the man; he knew he wouldn't be that strong enough to escape the cell. But he was speechless to see that he had escaped.They left the cell and headed back to the convocation hall, where the pack elders were already waiting for them."Welcome, Alpha Alexander," They all stood up to greet him before taking their seats.Alexander could tell that they had already made a decision and were just waiting for someone to reveal it. "It looks like y'all have something to say, judging from the way you are," Alexander said out loudly. "Go on and say it.""We could deduce that the Blackwood pack was involved in this fire incident. We think we should also send a warning to them," one of the elders said. "We can't just sit down and watch the Blackwood pack threaten us from time to time."Alexander knew that what the elders said were true, but he had his rese
