Finally, Derek would be taking her on their date then again once his car stopped at the parking lot of the Royal Palace, she glanced confusingly at him.What was going on? And why on Earth were there here!Chelle she jolted out of her thoughts when he held her hands, but immediately yanked it from his grip."Why are we here?" She asked harshly, tears already accumulated in her eyes.This was the same place she swore to herself never to come to again, yet Derek had to guts to bring her here.After all she told him happened to her."Chelle, please the hospital's director asked me to attend a small gathering with the Alpha. Please!" he was almost went on his knees and Michelle halted him.It wouldn't be appropriate and from his words alongside expression, it clearly wasn't his intention to bring her here.Afterwards, Michelle took in a deep breath than walked into the gigantic glamorous building with her arm hooked with his.*For an atmosphere as suffocating, toxic and uncomfortable as t
Alpha Shawn was still busy with a lot of people coming to greet him when suddenly he felt a hard sting in his chest‘Elle's in danger, I can feel’ his wolf said impatiently and Shawn's eyes widened,he didn't wait another second before he began walking out of the party hall, Andrew saw him leaving and he also followed immediately."Is everything okay, Your Majesty?" He asked as he ran after Tristan. "Elle" Alpha Shawn muttered thoughtlessly."Did something happened to her?" His beta asked still looking confused. Shawn got to into his car then drove roughly out, Andrew followed immediately.Arriving at the restaurant, he barged in and his nose flicked in the air, inhaling her very very faint scent. Going over to the restroom with Andrew trailing behind, they met two waitresses there - standing around though. "Your Majesty!" They both bowed immediately. He ignored them and pushed the door open, but they trailed after."Where's she?" Shawn rasped anxiously, already feeling his heart beati
For the first time in years, Michelle felt true fear – she didn't think it'd be this way to get a renewed experience of such an undesirable emotion. Her heart was pacing so badly yet violently in her chest that the pregnant human thought it was going to burst out of her rib cage. Yeah, that was how frightened she was by the assumption of him dying. Though Michelle swore to herself never to get involved with Alpha Shawn again, then again here she was. At the glamorous Palace of their Pack, standing at the door of the infirmary with beads of nervous sweat rolling down her forehead. Her hands were clasped tightly and due to its friction, sweat surfaced on her palms, yet she didn't care – those were the least of her worries anyway. Her supposedly ex-mate was currently in the ward she stood in, receiving treatment from some shamans – the most medically skilled practitioners in the entire Pack. After Shawn lost consciousness while on the horse, Michelle was fortunate enough to encounte
The glare Rita shot at Marianna was nothing short of lethal, dangerous, and it instantly shut her up. Her supposed best friend gulped down emptiness, a bit intimidated, then moved her eyes back to the Alpha and his allegedly Luna. Anyone sensible could tell he held numerous feelings for this human, but if so, then why would he himself betrothed to Rita? Marianna concluded it must have happened based on some kind of exchange or something relating to that. “Your Majesty, you shouldn't be…”the shaman spoke almost inaudibly from behind – Shawn's condition might seem stable or okay through the naked eyes, the again, his vital organs were in danger. The poisoned laced in the dagger actually dealt with the lungs, livers, and also the heart. It was a miracle Shawn had already regained consciousness, then again, he was an Alpha. His hug with Michelle didn't last long, since she soon realized where exactly she was – this was the Palace and in the presence of such people, especially his be
Those pairs of emerald green eyes were pinned down on the angrily marching figure of Alpha Shawn as he made his way to heaven knows where.Shortly, he was completely out of sight and the ache in Michelle's heart came in torrents. When Shawn infuriatingly slapped her hand away, a part of her heart throbbed in excess pain.He was angry at her… but why does she feel so pained? It shouldn't matter a bit to Michelle – Derek's life got spared because of her intervention, then again at what cause?“I shouldn't be…this bothered” Michelle mumbled while batting her eyelashes severally to prevent a lone tear from cascading down her cheeks.At that moment, she heard footsteps drawing closer and Andrew soon stepped out of the study with a visibly angry frown on his lips – the amount of anger he felt towards Derek right now was unexplainable.“Michelle, are you okay?” the beta placed a hand on her shoulder since she acted oblivious to his presence – even when he stood in front of her.What in hell'
It was going to be a long night and not in a sweet or pleasurable way – no, one which consisted of utmost confusion, perplexity, and surprises.Here at the Royal Dungeon where criminals or lawbreakers that caused harm directly to Alpha Shawn before sentenced to either death or taken into the dungeon was beta Andrew.He left the Royal Palace quietly yet made sure to leave a note for Michelle. His words left to the maid, where he'd be back soon.However, Andrew failed to mention his whereabouts because Michelle would surely grow worried if he did.The Royal Dungeon served as a house for notorious criminals, lethal suspects and beings that'd be classified as evil.The beta had been directed to the cell of Alpha Sebastian – the ruler of the Scarlet Heart Pack.The same individual who attempted to abduct the mate of Shawn, and also got in a brawl with him, yet inevitably lost. That was the same person Andrew expected to see.Then again, what his eyes were beholding contradicted his thought
They could only watch the pretty raven - haired lady prepare dinner with so much…. precision and perfection! As personal chefs to the great Alpha King, Shawn, their skills were predictably spectacular then again, it didn't stop them from admiring the ways of this strange beauty. Unknown to them, she was the Alpha's mate or ex mate, but Shawn had gone out of his way to order Andrew into hiring new maids once Michelle left the Palace. So yes, the two she wolves were completely oblivious to her true identity. If they weren't, they would have instantly declined her offer in aiding them cook – while staying in the Palace, Michelle was highly restricted from cooking. You could say Alpha Shawn was overly protective and sensitive when it came to her welfare. Hence, Michelle couldn't help but regret threatening him with her health when she knew how concerned he could get about her. Despite their separation, he clearly still felt something for her, yet Michelle wasn't ready for that anymor
For someone who detested hate night rides, the beta hadn't, no other choice than to lodge at a hotel to spend the night. Despite the fact the hotel could be described as magnificent, and classy, Andrew felt highly uncomfortable.It wasn't because of the excess greetings the workers filled his ears with – being a beta to the Almighty Alpha King Shawn entitled him to ultimate respect from every soul in the Pack and beyond.Well, he was highly recognized, but Marianna allegedly considered him to be a stable boy or a servant. However, none contributed to his feeling of discomfort presently.Here, at the reception, stood Beta Andrew and behind him was… Raven – the black witch. Now, the aura a black witch usually gives out was that of lethality, disdain, and uncontrollable resentment for werewolves.So… why wasn't she doing the same? Andrew could only perceive an emotion that wasn't supposed to be given off by any due to their haughtiness – fear.Why would a black witch be cowering in fear
Chapter 107Third person povAlthough the palace was being decorated and more attention was placed on it.

Chapter 106Third person POVLuciano and Rita, on getting an invitation to attend Shawn and Michelle’s marriage, booked a flight to travel back to Shawn’s country because the wedding was in two days.The marriage was still set to hold despite the recent incident that happened in the palace to Michelle and her unborn baby, and there was still no official statement from the palace by Shawn on what happened that day and if the bride which was Michelle was still alive or not or even their unborn child.These were questions that needed serious answers and this got the people worried most especially Rita.She wondered that if the wedding was still holding with the date of the wedding not even changed or postponed, it could mean that Michelle survived but her baby didn’t survive or it could mean that both her and her unborn child survived it but that’s impossible because the poison she gave her was a very strong one.All Rita could do is wait in anticipation until the day of the wedding to
Chapter 105Rita’s POVI’m really happy now that my plans have finally started taking giant step now that Rita’s baby is fighting for his stupid life.I don’t think I’ve been this happy in a long time, I need someone to share this news with, ok I think I should I call Luciano and tell him about this beautiful event that just came across my ear. But I can’t tell him that it was me that got the poison so that he won’t think I’m a bad person and start to resent me. Ok, now that’s everything is settled, let me give him a call“Hi, Luciano”“Hey there Rita, how are you and how you’ve been doing?”“I’m very well thank you, and you, how you doing?”“I’m also good as long as you’re okay”“Ha Ha Ha…” I chuckled “ Hey listen, I have some news for you and I don’t know if I should be happy or sad”“What’s wrong, what’s the matter?, did anyone hurt you?”“No no no, it’s nothing like that, nobody hurt me and I’m fine”“So what’s wrong Rita?”“Ok, I was siting down on my couch waiting for my driver
THIRD POVAt sunset, everyone in the royal family gathered around the dining table for dinner that evening.Shawn and Michelle came a bit late join them, because Shawn was being overprotective of Michelle,not letting her walk too fast saying it might affect the baby,Michelle had enough of his nagging so she just ignored him,because she was too hungry to care about what he saidWhen they were finally seated, Andrew instructed the maids to serve the food.While eating Shawn put almost all the food on the table in Michelle's plate,He was mostly feeding Michelle than eating,he would peel the shrimp and bring out the flesh for her,give her water,feed her soupBy the time they were done eating Michelle was too full to walk,When Shawn saw that she was full,he started eating the food remained by Michelle,“Bring a glass of apple juice for michelle” he shouted“also everyone leave the palace I want to have a quiet time”Then Shawn turned to Andrew and raven“You two love birds can also l
Third POVThe wedding plans seem to be moving really fast. Rita's plan to kill Shawn's baby hasn't come to fruition yet. She had everything carefully planned out. She wanted a strong baby to be out of this world before the wedding so that the news would break them and they wouldn't think of getting married but rather they would want their child.Shawn's suspicion was growing everyday as he observed Renata. The fact that she had no record or anything in her past was disturbing him. They knew a little or more about each of their staff.Shawn started his own private investigation on her. He never gave anything to chance. Time passed and she was avoiding Shawn mostly out of fear, she made it so obvious that made his suspicions worse. She had to seek help from Rita.“Madam, there's a problem”“You got caught?” Rita shouted“No i–”Rita interrupts her “wait I hope you're not calling me from the palace”“I said there's a problem and you're asking me all this questions why don't you wait and
Chapter 102Rita’s POVI can’t believe a golden opportunity has been given to me. All I need to do is find a fitting poison so that I can waybill it to the spy I hired in the Palace so that she can just give it to Michelle and just like that, her baby would die and that would be a giant step in my revenge plans.I am well aware that I can’t call anyone or tell anyone about this so I asked Natasha stylishly and Natasha said that it’s very hard to see poison because of the product’s ban in the country.Natasha further went to explain to me that if I’m really interested, I should meet some friends in low places and since I didn’t have anyone like that, she gave me someone’s number who apparently handles the dealings of the poison but he does in secret.Well, if money is to be the only problem, then it is not a problem for me at all. I quickly collected the guy’s number and she also gave me a code word to say once I called the line.To be completely honest, I was a little bit curious on
Shawn's POVIt's the week before the wedding. I woke up and almost immediately ran to take a look at my beautiful soon-to-be bride. “Always so gorgeous” I mutter, as I take a deep look at her.We're preparing already, for the visit to the antenatal clinic. We're going to have to make sure both my babies are in good condition after all. Walking about the palace, I try to ensure that everything is in good condition, all preparations for the wedding are going on smoothly.The drive to the antenatal clinic is a short one, probably as I do not take my mind off the wedding that would be exceptional and grande, I forget when I cover the most part of the distance, and only remember when I arrive.With ease, I take her hands gently, leading her out of the car, and into the clinic. I can't even stop thinking about the wedding all the while, I really cannot wait until the day. I don't know what to do to calm down my excitement.Days go by faster than I imagine, as I suddenly realised that the we
THIRD POVThe next morning Rita woke up to the sound of the alarm,her hand went straight to the bedside table to turn off the alarm,then she picked up her phone casually scrolling through the internet when she came across a very disturbing picturewhat she saw made her angry and shocked, it was the news of Shawn and Michelle's wedding.The news made her very angry then she dialed a number on her phone“go to the morning bloom cafe to avoid suspicion from the palace,when you get there call me and do that now”Then she got out of bed and headed straight to the bathroom, after doing her business in the bathroom she came out, waiting for the spy to call her.After an hour her phone rang,she checked,it was the spy. “Finally” she exclaimed!“I saw on the internet that Shawn and Michelle are getting married,is it true?“Yes miss Rita they are already ongoing preparations for the upcoming wedding,miss Michelle is also some months pregnant her belly bump is now too obvious I think she should
Third POVIt's been a while Since Shawn took Michelle out, He has been really busy lately with their businesses.I was really excited when he told me that we were going to go out, so she was planning to put on a red dress, she wasted a lot of time doing her hair and her make up, She then styled her hair in a ponytail manner and added some shiny hair pin just to make it look extra special.She put on a dark makeup so it could probably fit perfectly with the red dress she was wearing , her eyebrows were lined perfectly, then she brought out three pairs of heels with different shades of red and tried each of them to see which one fits perfectly with the red dress.She was just to apply the final touches when she heard a car honk, it was Shawn. Shawn went up to go get Michelle. He knocked and opened the door and he stood there with his mouth opened and totally speechless."Oh wow… you look absolutely breath taking tonight, Michelle" Said Shawn who couldn’t take his eyes off her."Thank y
