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
"Veronica…" Vanessa sighed, taking her hand in hers. "I don't want you to feel like you are alone. You can always reach out to me for support, I promise I will always be here for you," Vanessa assured her, and Veronica gave her a small, heartwarming smile. Vanessa had no idea she would ever be this way with Veronica. She initially saw her as some spoil brat who only wanted to be the Luna.But now, she thought that she had misjudged her. Looking at her, she could easily tell that Veronica was falling into a depressive state."Vanessa, I know you are kind and understanding. You are a mother now, and I believe you would understand me best. I don't want to hide this from you. I acknowledge the fact that Elliott is in love with Zoey," Veronica began.Vanessa wished Veronica didn't bring this up; she really didn't want to talk about it with her."I know that if he was given the opportunity, he would most definitely reverse time and change the situation. But we can't, so it's best to just a
Xerxes immediately dashed towards the door and flung it open to find a maid hurriedly walking down the hallway, towards the grand staircase that led up to the Alpha's room."F*ck!" Xerxes exclaimed, and chased after her.—------------------------------The damage the fire had caused to the pack was near distratous, and some were even injured.Alexander felt that if it was really Lynx's doing, then he had taken more than he could chew. Alexander wanted to also attack him unaware in retaliation.Alexander hadn't told anyone about it, but ever since Vanessa delivered their pup, he had been feeling a weird surge of power emanating from within him. All his senses have been quite hyper, and his thirst to be on the battlefield had nearly tripled.He decided to speak to Vanessa about it first. He thought of speaking to the pack members, but he do not need them investigating him and finding out anything about Arthur. So he decided Vanessa would be the perfect person to confide in. He got into
Zoey decided to stay in bed for a while longer, then she went into the bathroom and took a bath. A few minutes later, she was already dressed and out the door in search of Vanessa. She initially wanted to check up on Veronica, but on a second thought, she decided not to because she felt Veronica probably doesn't need her around.She stood at Vanessa's door and knocked twice. Soon she heard a go-ahead to come in, and she opened the door. She walked into the room to find Vanessa already dressed and smiling brightly with little Arthur in her arms."Vanessa," she called out as she noticed Alexander seemed to be getting overly dressed; it seemed they were getting ready for a gathering."We are ready to introduce Arthur to the pack," Vanessa said with a bright, infectious smile."Where is Elliott?" Alexander asked."Well, there is a situation with Veronica. I don't know what happened but she called, and Elliott had to run on over," Zoey explained."Is she okay?" Vanessa asked frantically."
"Zoey, it's not what you are thinking. I can…" Before Elliott could explain, Zoey walked out the door, slamming the door behind her.Elliott glared at Veronica, and she looked frightened at that moment.Elliott shut his eyes, trying to control his emotions and then rushed into the closet to get dressed. He quickly put on a black trouser and a blue long-sleeved shirt. A few minutes later, he was already out of his room and headed for Zoey's room.He wanted to find her and explain everything. He opened Zoey's door but she wasn't in her room. He walked out and saw a maid in the hallway and asked about Zoey, but the maid said she went out earlier this morning and hadn't returned to her room. He went to the convocation hall and saw the crowd, and it occurred to him that he had missed the whole gathering and announcement. He saw Alexander gesturing for him to come over but he ignored him, knowing fully well that he would be questioned later on why he was absent for the gathering.He could
Alexander noticed a lady in a black cloak, and he could sense how nervous she was. He wondered why she had a black cloak on. He immediately began approaching her. He scurried through the crowd to get to her, but then, she noticed Alexander's presence and turned. She began to run frantically away from the crowd.Elliott immediately took the other exit, and appeared in front of the lady at the hallway. Alexander also made his way into the hallway and found Elliott and the lady at the foot of the staircase."Who are you?" Alexander asked. The lady then pulled the cloak away from her head, and Alexander immediately recognised her. "Xena?" He voiced out."I'm sorry, Alpha Alexander. He threatened me and my grandmother's life, so I had no choice. My grandmother is sick and I–" she blabbed non-stop."Who threatened your grandmother's life?" Elliott asked immediately."The Alpha of Blackwood pack," she replied.Alexander felt his blood boil as she said that. "Where are they?" He asked, try
It's been days since the incident happened. Zoey had told Vanessa what happened between Elliott and Veronica, and Vanessa have been avoiding Veronica ever since. She was not angry with Veronica, she just felt guilty.Alexander on the other hand had been so busy with pack-related matters that it turned out that Xena was the spy they were looking for, and now that she has been discovered, Vanessa had thought that all should be well from now on.However, it only caused an uproar within the pack. Most of the pack elders and members are beginning to turn against Alexander. They were claiming among themselves that Vanessa's presence only brought trouble to the pack. Not only Vanessa, but also Zoey as well. There were rumors that Vanessa and Zoey only came to destroy the pack by seducing the Alpha and the Beta. The pack members now believe they are fighting for a lost cause, and that they were in the wrong, not the Blackwood pack.Things are going downhill, and Vanessa felt unhappy for bein
