"What the hell are you doing here?"

Jake didn't argue, instead, he ran off.

"How are you, honey?" My mother came to hold me.

"I'm okay, Mom," I smiled. "How was your outing?" I asked immediately to lighten up the atmosphere.

"That jerk. I can't believe he still has the face to come here." She hissed.

"I think Zelda needs to rest. She looks tired." Drake said, his eyes fixed on me.

He is my mate after all. He could probably feel my exhaustion.

"Yes Mom, I need to rest." I sighed in relief.

"Alright dear, goodnight." She kissed my cheek.

"Goodnight Mom," I hurried off before she noticed something else.

The next morning, I woke up feeling better and light. I went straight to the bathroom and took a quick bath.

I dressed myself up in what I'm most comfortable in, jeans and a shirt. I hurried out of the house and headed straight for work.

I was welcomed to work by Gina.

She was smiling from ear to ear as I arrived.

"How are you, girl?" She winked. "I heard that Jake was i

    JakeI was lying in bed while Cindy was busy pacing about in my room, she fisted her hand angrily. Angry at the turn of events, I must commend that Zelda’s boss is smart and knows how to talk himself from trouble. My ego was hurt, and I had to try to stop myself from going to Zelda’s home and punching him in the face. “How can the alpha let him go, he should have punished him,” Cindy said, and I tilted my head to look at her. “And you will be punished too, Father was only considering that and decided to let you be” I replied and Cindy snorted.I squeezed my eyes closed and Cindy was busy nagging, I was tired of hearing her voice and I stood up from the bed.“Where are you going?” she asked, and I sighed, turning to look at her “I’m going out for a walk” I replied to her and she wrapped her hand beneath her chest, which made her breasts push up a bit. “We should think about how to humiliate Zelda and her boss, this is not the time to go out for a walk,” Cindy said, and I arched my

I didn’t want her to worry and I didn’t want Drake to think that I was affected by him so I opened the door and let her in.“Honey….”My mom kept talking, but I wasn't listening to her. I was just nodding along, my mind still spinning from what had happened earlier.I couldn't stop thinking about Drake and how close they had been, both physically and emotionally. I didn't know what it meant, or what to do about it. I just knew that it was confusing and overwhelming, and It wouldn’t stop playing over and over in my head.I noticed that Drake was staring at me, but I refused to look him in the eyes. I was too afraid to do so, knowing that he would be able to read me like a book.I felt like I was an open book, and I didn't want him to know what I was feeling. I was scared that he would mock me, or that I would embarrass myself by revealing too much. I kept my eyes focused on my mom, trying to act as normal as possib

I was shocked and confused, unable to understand why he would do such a thing. “What the hell was that?” I yelled at Jake, my voice full of anger and confusion.

    Drake"Are we home yet?" Madeline murmured. Her voice was low and full of excitement. She was so happy that she had too much drink at the party. After staying away for two weeks, I gave in to Madeline's incessant calling. Though she was asking about my welfare I could tell her despair from her voice. I wish I didn't have to lie to her.

Then my gaze moved to Zelda; she looked like she was in a lot of pain, and I couldn't do anything to help her for now. I needed to take care of Madeline first by tucking her into bed, and then I could face the issue of Zelda's heat.As I carried her to her room, she was mumbling incoherent words as she wrapped her hands tighter around me. Then, a few seconds later, I heard her whisper, "Luther, I miss you. Please come back to us." I couldn't help but wonder who she was talking about. Not that I was jealous or something; I was just genuinely curious who this man named Luther was to the girls.Once I reached her room, I placed her on the bed gently and pulled the covers over her.

    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. As I walked over to whe

    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

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
