Olivia's POVMy father held my hands tightly with tears running down his eyes." Daughter, I am so sorry for all you had to go through because of my past decisions. I wasn't the best father to you my love..."" No, no. Dad. Please don't say that. You are the best father. My father! My mentor. You are everything that I want and need in life."" Dear, you door know what your father had done. I have made so many mistakes in my life my dear, I tried to fix them, I tried to make amends for all my sins but unfortunately, my sins finally caught up with me, my daughter."He pulled away from me and started towards the exit." Dad please, stop don't leave me!" I ran up to him and held his hand." I will never leave you, Olivia. I am with you and will always be. You and I will never be apart, our hearts are connected. You are my daughter and I am your father. " he began coughing nonstop and suddenly his mouth was filled with blood." Father, what's wrong? I think You are a poisoned dad." I said
Paige's Pov:I know that my best friend was going through the toughest moments of her life.Losing the only family you have is the worst thing I believe could happen to anyone.I promised myself that I would do everything in my power to always make her feel alive and be the family she needs whenever she was with me.“So, you mean our alpha Kurt passed the first two tests?” I asked as we sat next to each other in the class.“Yes, Paige. And it's so shocking. It’s happening as though he was reading my mind, as I told him about them. Or could it be possible he overheard us when we were discussing it? Or perhaps he read my mind again?” Olivia asked.“Of course not, Olivia. Remember he wasn’t even at home when I left. And it's not as if he has the time to start reading your mind."“Gosh! Then does it mean Kurt and I are really meant for each other? He’s just passing the tests without stress”.“Hm. Anyway, he still has one more to go – getting you the gold-colored necklace. But are you seri
Olivia's POVI opened the box and my eyes met with a dazzling necklace flashing sparkle into my eyes.Oh, Goddess!It was silver!I sighed heavily and plonked myself on the bed.My eye drooped.I stared keenly at it to be sure, but it wasn’t changing into any other color. It was real.He got me a silver colored necklace, instead of gold.Oh, geez!I kept the necklace on my lap and buried my face in my palm.This was meant to be the last test. It was so close. What then happened?Oh, Gosh!Does that mean we’re not meant for each other? But he passed the first two. Why did he have to fail the last one?Why a silver necklace instead of gold?*****I woke up the next morning, feeling kinda weak.Kurt left home very early even before I finished taking my bath. He said he had an important schedule.I had breakfast and left for school and on my way to class, I bumped into the school jerk – Dylan. Geez! I had almost forgotten someone like him existed in this Clan.“Hey, Gorgeous ” he called a
Olivia's POVI stayed mute for a while and turned around, going back into the house.Luckily, his mum was still in the sitting room, going through her phone.“Um…mum” I called.“Yes, dear?” She lifted her head to look at me.I could still see worries in her eyes.“Is there a problem?” She asked.“Um…not really. I just wanted to ask. Where exactly is Kurt staying?”***********I sat in the backseat and wondered when we’d ever get to the address.Kurt’s mansion was so far from his father’s.“Are we close?” I asked the driver after a while.It was getting dark already.“Don’t worry, ma’am. We’re there already” he replied as we drove into a tied road.The long path was quiet with no buildings – just decorations and Gardens.It looked more like sections.He kept driving along the beautiful place until we got to a huge gate with armed men dressed in black standing outside.The gate was locked and the driver had to stop.Two of the men came to us and the driver lowered the window glasses.“W
Olivia's POV“No. Your wife and I were just talking. She was telling me of an old ridiculous story which has no meaning” she replied and laughed.What?“Really?” Kurt asked in surprise.“Are you guys that close already?”“Yeah – to be sincere, your wife is so much fun to be with – especially with the funny story she told me,” she said and threw a glance at me.What the hell?“Hm,” Kurt mumbled and took in a slice of plantain.“Hmmm. I love finger foods. I like how good you made them. It wow!” he complimented with relish as he almost ate with his eyes closed.“Thank you!” The lady exclaimed happily, giving an ugly smile that revealed all her teeth.He took in another bite of the slider and nodded while eating it. I could feel my cheeks turning hot red.“This is good” he complimented, nodding like a lizard.“Oh, my! Thank you so much!!”I turned around and left the kitchen, angrily.As soon as I got outside, I brought out my phone and started going through my contacts. I need to stop th
Olivia's POV“Yeah – I’m in support. Let’s do it” The alpha said and the rest of the people concur.“Are you in, cute Luna?” she asked me and I looked at Kurt as if waiting for him to give me the go-ahead.But he didn’t say anything“Yeah, I’m in” I replied and the Beta's mate clapped like a baby.“Okay; who’ll go first?” she asked.“Hold on, aren’t we gonna ask Alpha Kurt if he’s in or not”, one of them said.“Of course, he’s in” the Alpha beamed.“Yeah, I’m in” Kurt replied and drank from his bottle again.“Okay; now remember the rules; three people can not choose Truth in a row. Meaning, that if the first two people choose Truth, the next person would have to choose Dare”, tagged explained.Huh?“Yeah – because most people are scared of Dare and would always wanna choose truth,” The Beta said.“Huh? But I’m not scared of Dares. Dare is my favy” the alpha cuts in and moved back and front on her seat in a seductive way.Gosh! I should’ve listened to Kurt. I should’ve just stayed at
Olivia's POV“Kurt, are you okay?” I called his attention and he just nodded while opening his eyes to look at me.Hm. He’s drunk.The driver started the car and soon, we were on the road already.I fixed my gaze on the window and looked at the dark streets and buildings as we drove past them. It was so late already.I thought about the alpha and how evil she was. Thank goodness I got to find out about it today. At least, now I know she is not a friend.I’m going to tell Kurt about it.And that Jaden…so, he wanted to ruin my relationship with his brother.Well, thank goodness it didn’t work out. And what has he been up to all this while? I haven’t seen him in a while, except for the day he shows up and caused Kurt to leave the house.Oh please;I just hope he’s decided to stay away from me.After a while, we got home and that was a huge relief to me.I breathed out deeply as the doors were open and Kurt and I came out of it.Oh, Goddess! Kurt.He was so drunk. He was tottering.“Kurt”
Olivia's POVI opened my eyes and discovered it was morning.Gosh! I didn’t even realize when I slept off.I took in a deep breath and sat up and surprisingly, I found Kurt standing behind the couch, staring at me.Huh?Oh, Goddess! Goosebumps.For a moment, our eyes were interlocked, but I took mine away immediately and fixed them on the floor.“Hey” he called in a way I almost couldn’t hear him.“H…Hi,” I stuttered, still keeping my gaze on the floor.We didn’t say anything for a while.“Breakfast is ready. You should wash up in the bathroom and come over” he finally said and I nodded and stood up.Seeing him close made me recall what happened the previous night and it made me cringe.“Olivia” he called when I was about to walk away and I turned to look at him.His eyes were gleaming. And his white shirt matched the color of the band on his hair.He inserted his hands into his trouser pockets and sighed.Wow! For the first time, I could tell Kurt was nervous.“Um…I wanna apologize f
Author's POV Alexavia sat feebly on the bed, a slight smile on her lips as she breastfed the tiny baby in her arms. Yes, you could call it tiny because he was so small, she felt she could crush it. “The doctor said you should take this as soon as possible” her sister Sylvia said as she held the bottle out to Alex. “Don’t worry, Sis. I’ll take them as soon as I’m done with the baby. Where’s Leo?”She asked, concerned. It’s been a long since he left the ward. “He’s addressing an issue out there, but he should be done soon” her sister replied as she dropped the bottle on the table. “I’ll go get the other things. Bye,” she added and left, leaving Alex all alone in the room. The 19 year old mother stared at the cute baby in her arms as he sucked so innocently with his eyes closed. His tiny pink lips were wrapped around her plump tip, drawing life from it and looking so beautiful. God! He was so cute and although he was just some hours old, Alex could tell he looked a lot like his f
Alexavia's POV.7 MONTHS LATER.I paced restlessly in the room, my hand on my waist with my big round bump in front of me. Sylvia was sitting tiredly on the bed, the phone in her hands as she stared at the four covered plates in the room. “Call him again”. I suddenly said, my voice sounding hoarse. “You were here when I called him, Alex. I’ve called him twice already and he said…” “I know what he said. Just call him again!” I snapped. “I just want to know if he’s close already”. Sylvia sighed and stared down at the floor and I stopped walking to look at her. “Why aren’t you calling him?” “Seriously Alex? Can you give me a break?” She scoffed. “What else do you want, huh? You asked for some noodles, and the cooks made them for you. Then, you asked for a bagel and cream cheese, and it was brought to you. You have four meals in total, Alex, yet you haven’t touched any of them. What else do you want?? Listen, I should be with Cruz right now, yet I left him to…” “So, Cruz is more
Alexavia's POVA while later….We drove into the camp, the securities at the gate stealing glances at who was beside Leo.He drove in and parked at a cool spot, then stepped out but I remained in the car.“Hey…” He opened my door and stretched his hand towards me.“Come on, Alex”.I stared at his hand, and nervously, took it and finally stepped out of the car.And together, we started walking into the main hall.I held Leo’s hand so tight, having a little string of hope and security around him.My eyes were on the floor as we walked in, all the people around muttering and stealing glances at us.And as soon as we got past the door into the main hall, guards surrounded us.“Seize her!” One of them suddenly yelled and instantly, an unknown force pulled me to my knees.“Argh!” I groaned as my knees landed hard on the floor and Leo’s eyes glinted.“Another person touches her and I swear, you’re dead!” His voice was a growl, a growl that quieted the entire place and gave the needle a chanc
Alexavia's POV.I opened my bleary eyes on the bed, my hands fisted, and my back ache.“Hey” I heard a voice call and turned my head slowly to see Sapphire sitting close to me.“You’re awake. How are you feeling?”I arched my brows and tried recalling what had happened.Sapphire…She’d cut her wrist open, but I was able to save her. And afterward, I felt so weak and passed out.“Alex, can you hear me?” Sapphire cooed and touched my arm and I forced myself to sit up.The memories of what had happened came flashing into my head; how I’d acted so crazy, attacked Jack…Goodness! Did I do all that???And Leo? Was he awake already? How would I know?My hand went slowly to my tummy, caressing the flat surface.“I… didn’t breed, did I?” I looked at Sapphire and asked.Sapphire's POVThe cut on her arm had already been taken care of, but I knew that wasn’t what she was referring to.“Your baby’s fine” I touched her arm and said and Alex took in a deep breath.“He did hold on, didn’t he?” she
Sylvia's POV“Ron?” I repeated and stood up. “What are you talking about? Who killed him??”“We don’t know yet, Sylvia. He was just found dead at a hidden spot a while ago. Someone stabbed him” Cruz replied, watching the expression on my face.“The hell…” I mumbled and took some steps away.Ron was dead?? For fuck sake? What could’ve happened to him? Who could’ve possibly stabbed him?“B…but it couldn’t be my sister, right?” I turned to Draco and asked, my eyes dimming.“Well,” he sighed. “I really can’t tell, Sylvia. It could’ve been anyone. We don’t know yet” he replied and I leaned against the wall. Why were a lot of things going wrong lately huh? What’s happening??I had the urge to break down, recalling so much trouble my sister was into already. What the hell was she doing?“Hey, come here” Cruz cooed and pulled me into a hug and this time around, I couldn’t resist.***************In Khalid’s roomJerry's POVI joined the three plump-looking men stood as I supervised the work b
Alexavia's POV*****************I was the only passenger in the cab and I kept looking out for signboards to be sure the driver was taking me to the right place.“Hey; don’t you think you should get that arm treated? I could take you to a clinic” the driver said from the front seat, staring at me from the mirror.“It’s none of your business. Just keep driving” I answered bluntly..Minutes later, the cabby pulled over in front of my destination, and without hesitation, I stepped out of it.“Hey, Miss! Where’s my money?” The driver asked, shit I didn’t reply as I ran away.**If he isn’t dead yet, he’ll be dead in a few seconds* Jack’s words resounded in my head as I ran into the bushy area.The part where Leo's eyes had gone close, kept replaying in my head, tearing my heart apart.I looked around for Sapphire’s house, but I could almost see nothing. This was the street, right?I continued running, my heart racing faster with each second, my sanity leaving me already.I had to cover
Alexavia's POV.I hurried with a heavy chest as I marched angrily towards the block.My head wasn’t straight, normalcy was very far from me at that moment.I walked indefatigably to the block and met the guards outside the door.“Hey; where do you think you’re going?” One of them asked as he obstructed my way.The lines around my eyes were so red as I glared hard at the door.“I need to see Jack” I stated bluntly.If the boys were people that knew me, they’d have known my voice was sounding deadlier than it used to.“You mean…Mister Jack?” Another chipped in, correctly, but I didn’t reply.“What do you want with him?”“Just let me in. It's important” I glared.“You need to be spa specific, young lady, 'cause we’ve got no time for games”. The first guard said and I forced myself to look at him.“I said it’s important. Very important” I replied.The guards exchanged glances at each other. Then, one of them went in and returned in a few seconds.“Come on” he muttered to me and I followe
Alexavia's POV.The following morning…I had woken up to behold two eyes staring directly at me – two dark eyes. They were eyes I was familiar with, but that morning, something was different about them.I adjusted lightly, registering the fact that I was still naked because I’d slept that way the previous night.“Leo…” I called lightly.I couldn’t understand why he was just lying and staring at me.“Good morning, Alpha”.Leo didn’t say a word but only continued with the stare and for a moment, I cringed. Hold on; shouldn’t we be getting ready for the coronation already? It should be happening shortly and after that the hospital.“How are you feeling?” He finally asked and for the first time since I met him, I could detect some weakness in his tone.“I’m…. I’m fine. And you, Alpha?” I replied, but Leo only responded with a scoff.“Um…We should be getting ready right? For the coronation?” I asked but still, there was no reply.“L… Leo?”“You should freshen up” he finally said and with
Alexavia's POVThe same man that my mother thought was dead all along, was alive? All this while he never cards to find us, his family? Was he the man my mother said so much nice things about? Does he know how much we have yearned for him, especially my mother?I was lost in thought.“Olivia!” He called more audibly,The pains were too much for him already and he was calling out to me for help, calling me by my mother's name to save him.“Alex” Leo called behind me.“What is going on in your mind?”A tear came dropping from my left eye as I watched him.He was grunting painfully and looked like he wouldn’t make it if something wasn’t done to save him in time." Stop!" I yelped and the people hitting him halted. They all stared at me as I ran to him and hugged him tightly." Please stop."" Why should we stop? Do you know who he is and what he has done?"I couldn't say another word as tears crammed through my eyes, something in me was hurting so badly. It felt like I have known him fo
