It was an hour ride from Moonstone Pack to Crestwood Pack, where the ball was going to take place. As the car pulled over in the parking lot, another car in which Adrian's guards were also pulled over, and with that four armed guards made their way out, and without hesitating two of the guards rushed towards Adrian's car and opened it so that Adrian and Mara could come down. As Adrian and Mara were making their way out of the car, another car also pulled over, followed by two other cars from which five different guards in black suits made their way and without hesitating, they rushed towards the first car and prostrated their heads in respect as the car pulled open, revealing the man whom Adrian detested the most Alpha Derek, accompanied by a beautiful lady who was no one else than his mate. Immediately Mara saw him; she immediately grasped Adrian's hand as if she was scared of being hurt by the man who had just emerged out of the car. Turning his gaze towards Adrian and Mara, a
As the ball was going on, Mara excused herself as she wanted to make use of the bathroom.As she was heading to the bathroom, she felt someone take her hand from behind, and before she could react, she was pulled towards one of the men's bathrooms, and immediately the door closed behind."Dave, what the hell is wrong with you? What if someone had seen you...?" Mara tried screaming at Dave but everything she wanted to say got stuck in her throat as Dave claimed her lips in a passionate kiss.At first she was hesitant, but just in a twinkle of an eye she too got lost in the kiss, and from the view of things, it was as if she was even the one dominating in the makeout as both of them were busy kissing passionately like two lovers who had been far away from each other for a very long time.After what seemed like forever, they finally disengaged from the kiss as they tried to catch their breaths."And here I was thinking that you didn't miss me at all," Dave said to Mara while catching his
"What took you guys so long?" Adrian asked Mara as they came out accompanied by the guards."Nothing. By the way, what problem is there at the Pack? I hope it's not another rogue attack." Mara asked Adrian as she got into the car with him."No, it's something worse than that. Tony got into an accident as he went to bring Diego back from school," Adrian said to him."What!!!" Mara screamed in shock."Hope nothing happened to Diego?" Mara asked Adrian with a frightened tone."Well, according to the guard that informed me about it, both Diego and Tony got injured, but they have both been rushed to the Pack hospital," Adrian said to Mara, whose face had already contorted in panic."Have you called the Pack doctor to ask him how serious was the injury?" Mara asked Adrian with a panicked tone."No, I haven't called him yet," Adrian said to Mara."But why haven't you called him yet? And you don't even look disturbed. It's as if it's not even your son that got into an accident," Mara said to
It was an hour's ride from Crestwood Pack back to Moonstone Pack. Just as instructed, Jake had driven directly to the pack hospital immediately he got the pack.Getting to the hospital, some of the guards who had followed them to the ball immediately got down from their car and rushed towards Adrian's car and opened it so that Adrian and Mara could get down."Jake, take some of guards and go back to the palace, and check how things have been. We will be back very soon," Adrian said to Jake as he was about to get down from the car."Okay, your highness," Jake said to Adrian before he got down from the car with Mara, and with that, Jake took two of the guards and started heading back to the palace.Once Jake left, Adrian and Mara made their way into the hospital, accompanied by the two remaining guards.As they were making their way to the Pack doctor's office, he himself came out to meet them."Greetings, your highness and your majesty," the doctor greeted Adrian and Mara as he bowed h
"One of you isn't the biological parent of his Highness," the doctor explained to Adrian."What!!" Adrian and Mara exclaimed at the same time._________________________________"Doctor, what do you mean one of us isn’t Diego's biological parent? Are you trying to cause trouble between my mate and me?" Mara's voice rose in anger, her eyes flashing with fury. The doctor flinched under her glare."I’m sorry, your highness. That was never my intention," the doctor said, his voice low. "If you’d prefer, we can do a DNA test to clarify the situation; if not, it's impossible for a child to have a blood type different from that of his parents if both parents blood type is O negative ," the doctor explained to Mara, his tone calm and apologetic, but Mara was already beyond reason."No DNA test," Mara roared, turning to Adrian, who had remained silent up to that point. "Adrian, why aren’t you saying anything? Do you believe this?" Her voice trembled with a mix of panic and guilt.Adrian was qui
It was four pm in the human world; the party that Alex organized had just come to an end.After the departure of all his students, including Claudia, who was still all over him despite the event that took place during the party, he reclined to his room to take his bath.After taking his bath, he came out of the bathroom with his towel still tied around his waist and sat down on his bed, and with that he took his phone that was on top of the bed and started going through his contacts."Max, what do you think about our mate?" Alex asked him as he was still going through his phone."Well, she's beautiful and a little bit stubborn, which is something that I like, because with how stubborn she is, I could already tell that she's never going to allow you to treat her the same way you treat other ladies," Alex's wolf said to him through their mind link, and with that, Alex frowned immediately."Max, this is the exact reason why I hate asking your opinion about anything. First, to begin, Amel
*Amelia* Getting back from Doctor Alex Darlington's house, all I wanted to do was to get some sleep due to how tired I was.After taking my bath, I lay down on my bed and was about to drift to sleep when I heard a loud knock on my door."Who the hell is that?" I groaned angrily as I stood up from the bed and walked to the door to check who it was.Opening the door, I saw the only person who I didn't want to see at the very moment standing in front of the door while grinning ear to ear."Bestie!!" She screamed as she rushed towards me and hugged me tightly, but unlike before, I didn't hug her back. It didn't take long before she noticed that something was wrong as she slowly stepped back to look at my face that was already contorted in a deep frown."Come on, Lia, don't tell me that you are still angry at me," she said to me as she saw how I was frowning."Of course, Erica, I'm still angry at you, or were you expecting me not to be angry at you after you failed to be present at my gra
*Amelia*"Yes, since you don't want him, I might as well have him. After all, I don't have a mate, and I don't know if I'm ever going to find mine. And have I told you that I have been crushing on him for a very long time?" She asked me, and immediately I widened my eyes in surprise."You have been crushing on my mate, and you are telling me that right to my face?" I asked her while staring at her like someone who has grown horns.Even though I didn't want a mate, I still couldn't help but feel betrayed as I heard my best friend telling me right to my face that she had been crushing on my mate for a very long time."Yes, of course; after all, you were the one who said that you were going to reject him, or don't you want to reject him anymore?" She asked me with a furrowed brow, not minding how I was glaring at her.Only if she knew how much I wanted to hit her for betraying me with such a statement and also how Tricksy, on the other hand, was growling angrily as she heard another she-
It has been over a week since the event of Adrian discovering Mara's infidelity took place, and unlike the first week after the event took place, Adrian was no longer feeling downcast; he had even started assuming all his responsibilities as the Alpha just as before, giving Jake enough time to focus on finding Dave, Mara, and the former Luna Amelia.Meanwhile, Adrian was in his office going through some Pack-related documents when his office suddenly started ringing.Sighing heavily, he dropped the document he was going through before taking his phone to check who was calling.On seeing the caller ID, he furrowed his brows in surprise, and just in the twinkle of an eye, his surprised facial expression was replaced with an angry facial expression.After some minutes of hesitation, he finally picked up the call and placed the phone to his ear."Hello," he muttered after picking up the call, anger evident in his tone."Hello, big bro, how are you doing? It's really been a while." Alex's
After dropping off Erica at her house, I couldn't help but think about what she told me as I was driving back home.Even without her telling me, I have already known that sooner or later Alex was going to find out that I was formerly his stepbrother's mate, and just as Erica said, he is going to be angry when he finds out, which I also know, but before he finds out, I would have already informed him about it, but that still doesn't mean that I'm going to accept to follow him to his pack. Who knows what Adrian will do to me when he sets his eyes on me?As these thoughts were running through my mind, I spotted a car parked in front of my house as I was getting closer, and leaning on the car was someone who looked like Alex.At first I didn't want to believe that it was him since I couldn't see his face, and also the car was different from the one I always saw him driving, but when I got closer and the person leaning on the car turned around, that was when it became clear to me that it w
*Amelia*"Is there any other patient I have to check on?" I asked the assistant nurse who was following me from behind as I made my way out of one of the hospital wards."No, ma'am, this is the last one," she said to me, and I nodded."Okay, then, if there's anything else, just let me know," I said to her, and with that, she nodded in reply before walking away.Actually it was five thirty pm, and since I was about to start heading home, I had to check up on all the patients who were under my care and make sure that nothing was wrong with them. After checking up on all the patients, I returned to my new and first office and balanced on the chair as I tried to recover my strength a little bit before heading back home.Even though it was my first day as a certified doctor, I was exhausted as hell. Since all this while I have been working as an assistant, I have always thought that we, the assistants, were the ones doing all the hard work, but it was today that it became clear to me that
It was five pm in the evening. Alex had finished his daily activity at the hospital and was about to start heading back home.Getting into his car, he was about to ignite it on when his phone suddenly started ringing. Groaning in frustration, he took his briefcase and brought out his phone to check who was calling.Seeing that it was Jake, he ignited his car and connected the phone to the car's Bluetooth before picking up the call."Hi Jake, How are you doing?" Alex asked after picking up the call."I'm good, Your Highness. What about you?" Jake asked Alex."I'm good. Any good news?" Alex asked him while driving out of the hospital."Well, there's a news, but I won't call it good news," Jake said to Alex through the phone."Well, if the news isn't good, then it's bad. Go on, I'm all ears," Alex said to him with his attention still fixed on the road as he was driving the car."Well, his Highness is insisting that I track down his former Luna, and he's even threatening to find someone
Adrian was in his office as usual, lost in his thoughts. Since he discovered Mara's infidelity and Diego not being his son, he hasn't been himself; he doesn't even assume his responsibilities as the Alpha of the Pack, which he never fails to do. Jake has been the one taking care of everything, even meeting up with some of the Pack members who wanted to see the Alpha about some urgent issues.Remembering how he had mistreated Amelia until she ran away from the Pack five years ago, Adrian couldn't help but beat himself in grief. He still couldn't bring himself to believe that since all this while he had made no attempt to search for her, it was as if he was waking up from a deep slumber that was probably caused by his stupid love for Mara.Knowing how good Jake was at tracking people down, he knew that finding her wasn't going to be an issue, so he wasn't worried about that. What he was worried about was whether she was ever going to find it in her heart to forgive him and whether she
Alex could clearly see the shock and fear written on Amelia's face as he made mention of taking her to his pack. For someone who grew up in the human world, she was supposed to be excited and eager to go to a werewolf pack, but from the view of things, it was clear that she wasn't interested, and from the way she refused without even giving it a thought, he could already tell that she wasn't just uninterested, but she was afraid of something."Amelia, what's wrong? Don't you want to follow me to my pack?" Alex asked her with a furrowed brow as he took a step backward to take a proper look at her face."No, Alex, it's not that I don't want to follow you to your pack; I would really love to, but I don't think that this is the right time, and mind you that I just graduated. Right now, the only thing I want to do is concentrate on doing what I have spent almost five years learning how to do, which is curing people," Amelia said to Alex, who was staring at her with a doubtful glare."Are y
*Amelia*It was a thirty-minute ride from the hospital where I have been working to Darlington Hospital.Getting to the hospital, I couldn't help but admire how huge it was right from outside. It was one of the biggest hospitals in the whole city, and I don't think there's another hospital in the city that is as big as this one, not any that I have seen.Getting into the hospital, I made my way to the receptionist, who was busy manipulating the computer right in front of her."Good morning," I greeted her with a warm smile."Good morning, Mrs. How can I help you?" The receptionist asked me."I want to see Dr. Alex Darlington," I said to her and immediately she furrowed her brows at me."Do you have any appointment with him?" She asked me, and I nodded in reply."Your name, please?" She asked me, and with that I gave her my name, and without hesitating she typed it on her computer, and after some minutes she lifted her head and looked at me with a warm smile hovering over her face."So
It was eight thirty AM in the human world. Alex was in his office at the hospital going through some reports when his phone suddenly started ringing.Sighing heavily, he took the phone to check the caller ID. Seeing who was calling, he immediately picked up the call and placed the phone to his ear."Good morning, Your Highness," Jake's voice sounded through the phone, and with that, Alex frowned deeply."Jake, why haven't you been picking up my call?" Alex asked him without replying to his greetings."I'm sorry, Your Highness, there have been many issues going on in the Pack lately,' Jake said to Alex, who furrowed his brow while wondering what he was talking about."What issues?" Alex asked Jake through the phone."His Highness has found out about his mate's infidelity," Jake said to Alex."What!" Alex exclaimed in surprise."How the hell did he find out?" Alex asked Jake with a surprised tone."Diego got into an accident and lost a lot of blood, and when he was brought to the hospit
*Amelia* It was another sunny and busy day in the human world.After yesterday's graduation, it was finally time to resume work at the hospital where I worked part-time while schooling. I have been absent for the past two days because of the graduation, but now that it is finally over, I have no other choice but to return to work, and since I have already graduated, I can now start working full-time and at the same time be looking for another hospital that will employ me as a medical doctor, which I am now, and when that happens, I won't have to be working as a nursing assistant anymore but like a medical doctor like Dr. Alex Darlington, and maybe if I work hard, I might even become as famous as he is."So you want to become a famous medical doctor just like our mate? Wow, that would be so romantic," Tricksy squealed happily through our mind link, and with that I rolled my eyes as if she was right in front of me."Tricksy, you know very well that I haven't accepted Dr. Alex Darlingto
