Drake

The car ride home was silent after I had announced my intention to build a hospital for Madeline in front of everyone.

I didn't say that to grab anyone's attention or to prove anything to anyone; it was a plan I'd been thinking about long before finding out she was my mate's mother.

Madeline was a remarkably skilled nurse, and her talents were being squandered at the useless clinic she worked at.

"Drake," Madeline finally spoke, prompting me to pull over so we could discuss this further. Her face was unreadable, leaving me unsure if she was angry or not.

"Yes, Madeline," I replied, turning to face her.

"Why did you announce you were going to build me a hospital in front of everyone?" Madeline's tone remained neutral as she stared up at me.

"It's the truth. I've been planning it for a while now, and that situation just provided the perfect moment to reveal it," I explained, while Zelda and Madeline exchanged bewildered glances before their gazes focused on me.

    Drake "An omega can't run a business."That was the final straw. My patience with him had worn thin, and I was hell-bent on teaching him a lesson today that he would never forget, which would bring me a few steps closer to my revenge for what he did to my brother."What was that?" I asked again.He had no right to make those derogatory "remarks about Omegas running businesses, especially when it involved Madeline. I couldn't let his prejudice go unpunished as I turned to face him."Lucas," I growled, my voice laced with warning, "You're treading on dangerous waters.""What? I'm just telling the truth," Alpha Lucas said, feigning innocence, his gaze shifting to Madeline, who surprisingly met his stare head-on she didn't look scared of him, the only emotions I could see in her eyes were annoyance and anger."Alpha Lucas, if you don't want to lose what little respect you have left in front of your son," I said, struggling to contain my anger, "I suggest you leave us be.

    Zelda I honestly don't understand what was happening before me. To say that I do, would be a big fat lie. From the moment the guards came in, I was lost and I'm sure my mother would share the same opinion as me but there was something about the look in Drake's eyes that told me he knew something about what was going on."What! He isn't our culprit, then who is?" The guy they called captain said as he let go of Alpha Lucas, who looked like he was about to pee on himself.Why does he seem to fear this king so much? "Some wolf in another pack," one of his men answered."How could they make this type of mistake?" The captain asked, seemingly angry."We're not sure, sir, but we will get to the root of everything," one of his men said as they all let go of Alpha Lucas."We apologize for the mix-up, it was a mistake on our path," the captain said with a slight bow."Mistake?" He scoffed. "I will have your heads, I will take it up with the king," Alpha Lucas said, his fear still evident in

After all, we're mates; she's my other half, my soulmate—the one the moon goddess destined for me. There was no way I could abandon her.In the heat of the moment, I had let my anger get the best of me. The words I'd spoken were harsh, and I regretted the hurt I had caused her. Our bond was something sacred, a connection forged by the moon goddess herself. It was a bond that ran deeper than any momentary anger or frustration.As I reflected on my actions, I knew I needed to find a way to make amends. We were meant to be together, and no disagreement or argument could change that fundamental truth.

    ZeldaIt's been a week since Drake and I had that argument, and I'm still trying to process the hurtful things he said. Why do I feel so sad when this is what I wanted all along? This conflicting emotion is overwhelming."Zelda," my mother's voice interrupted my thoughts.I turned to her, unsure of how to respond. "You were lost in thought. Are you okay?" she asked, her concern evident on her face."I'm just thinking about some things, that's all," I replied with a faint smile."Are you sure? You know you can always talk to me about anything," she said, her worry evident."I know, Mom, and you know I'll tell you if something's wrong," I reassured her with a smile."Okay dear, I was checking," my mother answered as she took my hands in hers, "he doesn't deserve you, and you will find someone far better than that coward."She thought I was thinking about Jake. Why would I be bothered about a jerk like Jake?"I know, Mom," I said to my mother and she returned my smile.Suddenly, there

    Drake As I watched the paramedics do their job, it took all the self-control I had to hold back my wolf from destroying everything in its path, to think that someone would dare try and hurt my mate and her mother was something only fools dared to try. I would surely get to the bottom of this and this person would rule to say they dared to do this.I would make their death quick and painful, slow and torturous, they would beg me to stop but I would never until they're dead, if it was possible to bring them back to life and do it again I would.My eyes fixed on the flickering ambulance lights as they carried Zelda and Madeline past me, my fists clenching and unclenching as I watched the stretcher take Zelda away. She was unconscious and covered in soot. Madeline's face was pale and bloodied. They were being carefully loaded into the back of the ambulance. Rage was all I felt as I saw their state. If I do find this person which I will find, I will make sure he dies a slow and painful

The people he had assigned to investigate the explosion at Zelda and Madeline's house stood before him, their expressions grim, he didn't know why they looked guilty the deed was already done, so what they had to do now for him was to find the person responsible."A little birdy told me that you've found the person responsible for the explosion at the house" I said as the guards stated to me that if they made the wrong move I would rip their head off, which was true but they don't need to know that."Yes, Your Majesty. We found the man responsible for the explosion, with the help of the information team we were able to find him and he was under our noses the entire time" one of the guards answered "And who is this person that dared cross me?" I asked "It's Alpha Lucas"My anger immediately consumed me as my wolf fought for control, that bastard killed my brother now he also

    Drake I woke up to the shrill ring of my phone cutting through the silence of the room. Once I looked at the caller ID, Immediately recognized the hospital's number on the screen, and dread washed over me. I answered with trembling fingers, my voice barely more than a whisper."Hello?" I replied."Mr Drake?" The female voice asked My throat tightened, and I managed a strained, "Yes, this is he.""I'm calling from the Clinic," the voice continued. "I'm afraid there has been a complication with Zelda's surgery."The world seemed to stop moving as my brain tried to process what the nurse had just said. Zelda, my beloved mate, who failed to protect me, was lying in a hospital bed because of my incompetence. My heart pounded so loudly that I could barely hear the voice on the other end.

    DrakeAs I walked back and forth in the cold, sterile hospital hallway, my heart raced, beating like the drums at the festivals. The passing weeks had felt like an eternity, and at last, the moment I'd been waiting for was upon me. Anxiety had a vice-like grip on me, causing my fingers to involuntarily clench and unclench. Despite my efforts to calm the storm of emotions surging within me, I remained unable to do so as I stared at the ICU doors, waiting for them to open up.A few minutes later, the ICU doors slid open with a soft whoosh, and the medical team emerged. Dr. Anderson, the team's leader, approached me with a reassuring smile on her face."We're ready, Mr. Drake," she said, her voice calm, even if the situation wasn't. "Madeline is stable, and we're about to revive her, Do you consent?"I nodded, my throat tight, and followed her into the room.

    DrakeThree years later.I stood at the grave, my hands clutching the flowers I had brought. My kids stood beside me, their eyes fixed on the stone before them. I took a deep breath, clearing my throat. “Owen looks exactly like you,” I said, my voice quivering. “I know you're not here, but occasionally I believe you are.” I paused, my eyes hard as I looked at my kids. “He's as strong as you are. He's selfless, just like you. You would have loved him.” The words hung in the air, heavy with emotion.“Sometimes it's difficult to believe that you're not here with us, that I won't ever hear your voice again or feel your touch. Sometimes I think it's all a nightmare, that I'll wake up and everything will be like it was before. But I never do. The truth is, life without you is hard. I find it hard to trust anyone, to open up to anyone. “My kids ran off, giggling as they chased each other through the grass. I got up to follow them, making sure they didn't go too far.

    ZeldaNine Months Later.I looked in the mirror, my eyes drawn to the slight bulge in my belly. I placed my hand on my stomach, feeling the life within. It was a strange sensation, one that filled me with both joy and fear. I was growing, my body changing, my life changing. But I was still me, still whole. And that was all that mattered to me. I traced my fingers over my cheeks, feeling the slight swelling of my nose. Drake said I looked beautiful, but I couldn't see it. All I saw was a monster. But he loved me anyway.He still wasn't happy that I was keeping the pregnancy, but I knew in my heart that this was the right decision. I wanted to have this child, to give Drake the heir he deserved. He might not have needed it, but the pack did. I took a deep breath, steeling myself for the challenge ahead. I could do this. I could be strong for both myself and my child. I placed my hand on my stomach again, feeling the flutter of new life within. And I smiled.The door to my room burst o

    ZeldaI couldn't tell how long I'd been unconscious, but when I opened my eyes, my head was pounding. I struggled to sit up, but someone helped me, supporting my weight. I looked up, and my heart sank. It was Drake. His expression was unreadable, and I was unable to remember the last time he had smiled. “Where's my family?” I asked, my voice breaking. I was afraid of the answer. “The doctor had asked that we give you some space,” he said. I nodded, my mind racing. He was staring at me with a strange look in his eyes, and I knew something was wrong. “What is it?” I asked, my heart in my throat. “Nothing,” he said, his voice monotone. I knew he was lying. We'd known each other for too long. He knew I could see right through him. I waited, the silence weighing on me like a heavy blanket. “Just tell me,” I said, my voice shaking. He let out a long sigh. “You're pregnant,” he said, his voice low and serious. My jaw dropped, and I looked down at my stomach. “I thought about what the

    ZeldaI heard footsteps approaching, and my heart leapt into my throat. A guard appeared, a limp body slung over his shoulder. He dropped the body on the floor, and I held my breath, dreading what I would see. The guard stood back, his face pale. “He's dead,” he said, his voice flat. I forced myself to take a step forward, my knees shaking. I knelt beside the body, my hands trembling as I reached out to touch it. I pulled back the blood-stained cloak, revealing the face of Jake.“Jake, the Fierce,” I whispered, my voice barely audible. “Don't do this. You can't leave like this.” I reached out to touch his cold cheek, my hands shaking. I looked down at him, my heartbreaking as I took in his broken body. “Please… please don't go.” I cradled his body in my arms, my tears falling like rain.My mother rushed to my side, her arms wrapping around me. “Shh, my dear. Be strong,” she murmured. Drake stood in front of me, his eyes hard and unyielding. His arms were crossed behind his back, hi

    ZeldaI felt Jake's hand slip from my grasp, and I heard a sickening thud as he hit the rocks below. I wanted to believe he was still alive, but I knew it was a futile hope. I sank to my knees, my eyes fixated on the jagged cliff that loomed before me. “Jake! Jake! Jake!” I heard Drake’s voice as he called out, but the only response was the echo of his own voice. Desperately, Drake yelled again, his voice hoarse and cracking. But there was no reply, only a heavy silence. I turned to Drake, his expression unreadable. “Let's go,” he said quietly, his voice heavy with grief. “No!” I cried, shaking my head. “We have to find him! We have to save him!” I could feel the tears welling up in my eyes, but I refused to let them fall. I couldn't accept that he was gone. Drake took my face in his hands, his eyes filled with sadness. “He's dead, Zelda,” he said softly, his voice cracking. “I'm so sorry.” I shook my head, refusing to accept that Jake was gone, and then I freed myself from hi

I closed my eyes, my mind spinning as I tried to find a way out of this.I howled in desperation, the sound tearing from my throat. “Zelda!” I heard Drake call, his voice echoing through the cavernous space. I opened my eyes, straining to see him through the darkness. He was standing on the edge of the cliff, his arms outstretched toward me. But it was no use. I was too far away, the space between us was too great. “I can't reach you, Drake,” I cried, my voice cracking. He took a step closer, his eyes pleading. “Just try, Zelda,” he said, his voice shaking.I strugg

    ZeldaDesperate, I reached out with my mind, trying to connect with Drake. To my relief, I felt him there, his mind close and receptive. I tried to send him to our location, hoping he could understand my message. Suddenly, I felt his presence grow stronger. He was coming, and he was coming fast. I sent him another message, pleading with him to hurry. He responded, his mind filled with a sense of urgency and determination.Cindy's wolf was impossibly fast, making it difficult for me to shift into my wolf form.

But I could feel my strength waning, and I knew I wouldn't last much longer.

    ZeldaThe cold water stung my face, jolting me into consciousness. I squinted against the bright light, my eyes taking a moment to adjust. I could feel my wrists and ankles bound, my body aching with the strain of being tied up. My head pounded, a dull ache spreading from the base of my skull. As I took stock of my surroundings, I noticed that I was in a small stone room, the only light coming from a small window high above my head. The room was bare, save for a single wooden chair in the corner.The last thing I remembered was a sudden, blinding pain as something hit me on the head. Now, here I was, tied up and at the mercy of Cindy, a woman who had always been a pest in my life.“Why are you doing this?” I asked, my voice cracking with fear. Cindy's smirk only widened, her dark eyes glittering with malice. “Oh, you know what you did,” she said, her voice dripping with venom.

    Zelda“My lady,” a voice called from behind me, making me jump. I turned around to see a maid standing there, her gaze fixed firmly on the floor. “Your room is ready,” she said, her tone deferential. “How many miles is it from here to Cindy's grandmother's house?” I asked, my voice betraying my anxiety. The maid hesitated, then said, “I do not know, my lady.” I felt a wave of frustration, but I bit my tongue. “Thank you,” I said, my tone cool.I pulled the curtains closed, blocking out the moonlight. With a weary sigh, I let my shoulders slump. “My lady,” the maid said, “I hope you find the room to your liking.” I nodded my thanks, too tired to speak. She left me alone, and I entered the room, closing the door behind me. I sank onto the bed, its softness enveloping me. The silence was broken only by the ticking of the clock on the wall. I felt a wave of exhaustion wash over me, and I closed my eyes, my thoughts swirling.I felt my blood boil as I thought of what that woman had d
