Ember's POVI jolted awake from my sleep and my hands flew directly to my neck expecting to feel pressure. My first shock was the fact that I was the only one in the room. Oh my goodness, that dream had felt so real that I almost thought that Trent was in here with me. I squinted in the darkness and reached for my bedside lamp. I jumped when I saw Trent sitting at the corner of the room on a chair with his head resting against the wall and his legs crossed over each other.My heart gave an unusual thump and I went still. I didn't want to believe that I had been in here all these while, yet didn't know that I was in potential danger. Since he was asleep, I came down from the bed and tiptoed toward the door. I didn't want to take any chances. What if I said that he couldn't do anything and at the end of the day, he hurt me?That dream was like a foretelling of what was to come and I'd be damned if I treated it as an ordinary dream. My heart raced when I finally walked past him yet he
Author's POVEllie prepared her things the next morning after seeing that her plans had failed. She was busy arranging when she heard a knock on the door. Annoyed by the person who had the guts to come interrupt her when it wasn't even day yet she matched to the door and yanked it open.It was Ember. " You are here." She whispered.That was the only form of acknowledgment that she was going to make because she didn't care about whatever was happening in and around the surroundings. If there was a better way for him to go about this, he would, but for now she would just relax and watch her plans play out and possibly seek help if possible."I am tired of having you around, it's becoming tiring. What do you always intend to achieve?" Ember demanded from the two-faced bitch who it was obvious came to destroy her. "You, I came for you." Ellie retorted, "You're not going to go scot-free, why do you keep parading yourself as the best when it's obvious that you're the devil's spawn? Tell me
Author's POV Ellie finally arrived home and looked at the mansion that she never had joy in for one day. She dreaded stepping back into this place until she had made sure that all plans had been executed. There was an anger in her eyes as she watched some maids walk toward her to probably get her back from her. She knew that it wasn't willing so there was no need for her to waste her breath on their greeting. She strode into the house and ignored everyone who greeted her. "Where is the Alpha?" She inquired from the head maid, Eloise, who was a bit worried about her attitude. Ellie wasn't the best conversationalist but it seemed like something was different about her when she returned. It was as though she was possessed by a certain aura that she couldn't place her fingers on. It only made her very curious. "I don't know... But I think that he should be in his study. He's been holed up in there for the longest time now, ma'am." Ellie didn't bother to acknowledge them anymore, i
Author's POVA bit of sprinkle here and and there made a little ocean and that was what Ellie was doing. Her plans started out slowly, almost as if she was naive and dumb, that was her plan all along because it would help her be able to carry out what she originally had in mind. It wasn't going to be easy given the fact that a lot of people thought that she was senseless but she was going to find a way to make it work.That made her begin her day with going to visit her father before the cock crowed. She needed no interrogation from the guards because she was the Luna in question. "Dad, I am here because you promised that I would be able to find a solution, so where is it?" Her father gestured to a seat but she refused. She was working with time so if it didn't clock in at the expected time she wasn't going to remain here waiting for an irresponsible person to carry out her assignment for her."Daddy, I came here before anyone was up. I need to leave before they can finally wake up.
Xander's POVThe moment I saw Ellie approaching, I felt disgust well up inside of me. It was almost as though she had washed herself in mud. The feeling was unexplainable. It wasn't as if I liked her in the first place but this was more of disgust. There was nothing wrong in her moving around since I was the one who allowed it in the first place but right now, I felt like she just had to leave no matter what my father said. She smiled when she crossed the threshold and I stared at her blankly, there was no way that I was going to take her seriously. She could try to do all she could but all that I could feel for her was resentment. "You look stressed, do you need anything?" She offered but I shook my head and that was me being polite. "I brought tea for you since I heard that you skipped breakfast." She said, I stared at her for a second and returned my focus to my books. "Are you mad at me? I know that we might have begun our relationship on a rocky begining but we can still mak

Ember's POVI jumped when I felt a hand touch me. It was no one but the infamous Trent. My head was resting against the wall and I was sure that my eyes bulged out of my sockets. "What's the matter? Are you okay?" I inquired, before casting another glance a the kids on the bed "Oh, it's nothing... I don't know... Why are you so scared?" "I'm not scared. I'm just a bit wary, that's all." I responded, searching to face for the animosity that laid in them a few days ago. It was missing and it made me wonder if he was messing with my emotions on purpose. There was absolutely no way that I wouldn't be able to figure out that there was a problem somewhere."You do know that there is absolutely no way that we can escape from the stress that comes with taking care of a child, so I brought some tea for you. Would you care for some?" I was still startled by how forgiving he was? Other men would have probably done something against me but he was only staring at me.I stared at him calmly. "
Ember's POVGetting out of a hard relationship didn't seem like the perfect way to work seeing that he was ready to be a responsible father. Trent was all shade of kind so I decided to stick with him, but the problem now was the lady who was ready to be a pest in our lives, unwilling to leave. It made me sick that I had to keep on waiting on her and all of that. If there was nothing else for me to do, I would have requested that I just left but my kids weren't still in the best shape.Trent had informed me that a physician would be coming in today which got me angry. Why the hell would he allow someone that we didn't know from Adam to come to treat them? But at the risk of sounding suspicious, I agreed. That led me to this point where I was. I had to tell another maid to get a message across to Xander but this time around with a better option. She went with blood bags. She didn't understand what was happening and I didn't send her any letter. I only told her to ask him to call me.
