Ember's POV

I went still at his words. Firstly, because it was a given. It was supposed to happen naturally between couples and I was making things difficult for him.

"Oh,... That's sweet." I replied tactfully because I didn't want to say anything that'd make him know that my heart has left a long time ago

He stared at me with a challenge in his eyes. "I don't know what is happening with you. You've been disturbed a long time. Is there anything that I can do for you?"

Staring at the man who was showing me love like no other made my heart pull like strings. I would have had a reason to hate him but he was very good to me that all I felt was guilt. "I am good. I am just healing softly." My heart got twisted for a while when I saw his brows twist in concern.

"I'm getting fed up with these excuses. I know that they are just means for you to avoid this issue and I truly didn't know why." He said and I felt bad. "Tell me what is wrong with you and I'll see what I can do. Is your business not productive? You've not been going into work for the past few days and I can't help but wonder why."

My heart beat faster than normal. There was a reason that I wanted to leave him but at the same time didn't want to hurt him. He was so good to me. "I don't know what is wrong with you today. You're looking pale and I want to know why. Did you think that there's something that I should know?" He asked me again and I stared at him.

"I am just under the weather, it's nothing serious." I replied and he hummed warningly. " I don't know why you're making a fuss about it." I replied and he stared at me.

"Tell me what I need to know."

"Is there something else you want to say? Your sound highly convinced that I am passing through something that I don't want to tell you about which isn't true. I am not just tired. I would like to have some rest. I'm sorry I can't give you what you need." I replied him enthusiastically. If I didn't make him realize that I was as innocent as innocent could be, he would find out

Trent grabbed my hand and stared at him for a minute. I was a bit scared about what he could do to me. I was powerless with him around. "YOU CAN'T KEEP PUTTING OFF THE NEEDFUL. ARE YOU CHEATING ON ME?" He demanded

I was legit scared. I had never seen him like this before. There was no reason that I would stay away from him but with the way he was acting. "You're hurting me." I cried in shock.

His eyes blazed angrily and I stared at him in fright. "What the hell is wrong with you? Are you this worked up because of sex? Is this what this is? Are you telling me that you don't have a life outside of having sex? Must I be always ready to..."

He dropped my hand and I was shocked.

"Is there something else that I need to be aware of? Tell me... I will kill the man that has taken your heart." He yelled.

I knew that he meant every word he said. It was going to be very brutal and I didn't know what to do. "You're kidding, right? This is the most ridiculous thing that I have ever heard in my entire life. You're crazy!"

His eyes were crazed like he was high on drugs or some potion that was making him act this way. "Oh, yeah. I'm crazy about you and I'm not even apologetic about that. You will not play me for a fool. I know when you start these symptoms of withdrawal there's a problem." He replied

While he was spot on, I was also being careful. "I don't want to have any fight with you because of this issue. You're paranoid which I understand but what I won't tolerate is you dumping your fears on me. I don't know what else I would do to make you trust me but I guarantee you that you don't need all these things that you're doing because I have been..."

He stormed out of my room and I sighed in relief. He would never be violent with me, at least that's what I thought.

Until I heard footsteps running towards my room frantically. I opened the door and saw Sonia panting in front of my room.

My heart was beating faster than it should and I stared at her in shock.

"What's going on?" I demanded.

"The Alpha is raving downstairs. He is going to kill people. You need to come help him out if not people are going to blame it on you. He was muttering your name." She spoke and I became scared. This was more than I could bear.

"I'll check him out now." I replied and rushed downstairs hoping that he didn't slice off my head with his claws. If I left him now, he would say it was because I was probably in love with someone else. My eyes widened in shock when I saw the carnage that he had made.

"Everyone get out now." I ordered calmly before moving towards him slowly.

"Do you know what you're doing?" I asked him and he didn't say a word.

"You're quite bold to come here. One would think that you would be scared of me." He replied and I shook my head. I didn't understand what nonsense he was portraying. This was more than what he cared to admit and I was pissed by the meaning of that.

"I think you're the one who's troubled and looking for someone who would be a part of that trouble." I replied

He grinned and walked toward me. " Maybe I am in trouble for you. I won't gladly change a thing."

She wants Xander even though he hurt her by cheating and treating her, like trash and rejecting and banishing her from his life and his pack while pregnant with his twins.

    Ember's POVGetting out of that delicate situation proved to be a herculean task. All that I could think of was the fact that I probably had to start thinking of ways to leave.He was getting angry about the lack of physical intimacy which he deserved to be but I was also scared that one of these days he might just flip. We weren't on speaking terms for the most of the week and I avoided him to the best of my ability.Running my business religiously had to be the best thing that I had going for mebecause I needed something else that would make everything work out smoothly. My eyes were rotating at one point, and I felt like something was actually wrong with me. Sonia walked closer to me and tapped my arm drawing me out of my reverie. I was a bit tired about my predicament. Thinking at all times wasn't going to do good to my system. "Luna, a few Alphas would be coming soon. I hear that they're arriving in the evening. We need to prepare for their arrival."I nodded, pretending like

    Ember's povUpon my arrival downstairs, I met two guards who were also running into the compound, filled with worry and fear they began to pant. ", Luna, the pack is on fire." They delivered the message and I was angry."What do you mean by that?" I asked them and proceeded to run towards the site when someone dragged me back and I was confused as to why he was doing that. He raised his hands and stared at me. "I'm sorry but the alpha says that you shouldn't be here at this time. He specifically requested that you stay here so that we don't have any issues later, ma'am." He explained.I glared at him. The hell with him and his Alpha. What the hell was wrong with these people? "Get your hands off me right now before I do what I'd greatly regret." I warned him and he moved back quickly. I was pissed by the nonsense that he was trying to do. It wasn't going to work with me. I was going to make sure that they didn't do anything that'd deter me from seeing my kids. Was it that easy to gi

    Ember's POVTwo thoughts ran through my mind. Firstly, I didn't know what animal had snuck into the safe tunnel. It was almost like being stuck between the devil and the deep blue sea. I needed to leave as soon as possible.The footsteps that were approaching stopped and I knew that they had also heard the warning that I did. I was probably trapped with an animal. The next thing I did was to bolt from that place. That was the only option, if not I was going to die. It let out a growl again before chasing after me.Now this was a mess because the mud had become sticky, the rogues that had come in after me had messed up the place. I was doing too many things at the same time. I was making sure that my legs were stepping on the right places so that I didn't get sucked up in the puddle that could make me slip and fall.Louder growls echoed from the tunnel as it ran towards me. Man, I was competing with a highly skilled animal.I jumped when I felt the ram of its horns at my butt. Shit!

    Ember's POVI froze when I saw that there was probably something wrong somewhere, my eyes were focused on the rescuer and before I knew what was happening, I had been plucked out of the way only for the wolf to ram into the wall. I clung to the person holding me like a monkey would to a tree. It was a relief that I was able to find support. I turned to see the growling wolf. It had red eyes and a large tail, it was totally different from the kind of wolves that we were used to. "Who sent you?" The man demanded. His grip was still strong as he helped me. I would have had a problem with him holding me in my intimate area close to his. But I think that was the furthest thing in his mind. Sadly, he was wearing a mask that I really wanted to pull off before remembering that he would be distracted and that would do me no good. The wolf growled in response. It was angry but I wondered at what. For all I knew I didn't offend it.The man's gaze remained ahead but he spoke. "You need to ge

    Ember's POVWhy don't you leave, boy? I don't want to hurt you." The rogue said and I smiled, also taking a glance at the mystery man. His eyes flickered toward me for a second but there wasn't any emotion in them. He was just like looking at a blank canvas. The only good thing about him was the fact that he was visibly clenching his fists and was trying to make sure that these people didn't get on his nerves. I stared at him and back to the rogues. "You don't want me to destroy you do you?" "I don't know. What can you do? We're three, I don't even need to allow them to come toward you before they make sure that you turn to naught." The rogue continued and I sighed. I would have loved to see them get into action and be the judge to know who exactly had all the power and strength to be able to fight all these people. Then I could run away and inform my people of the latest happenings.I loved the fact that the rogues were really underestimating me because they thought that I couldn'

    Ember's POVWe were left with almost three people who didn't want to wait to suffer the same fate as their leaders The mystery man stared at me and I didn't say a word but we understood each other. Without saying anything much, we jumped towards them and started chasing them.My heart was thumping hard but I didn't stop because I just needed to make sure that we won the war on this end. If we were being delayed by these people that meant that there was a lot of fighting going on in the main axis. The rogues split and we came to a halt. Two went one way and the other one the second way. This could be a trap. "Can you shoot?" I nodded. Even though I had never done it myself I knew that it couldn't be that hard. Also, I wasn't just going to allow them to escape simply because I couldn't shoot or was afraid. " Yhat place leads to the river that's why you need a gun." I didn't want to start asking questions as to why he knew every nook and cranny of the Pack. I just hoped that he wasn

    Ember's POVThere was a need for me to be told twice before jumping in front of them. How did they manage to capture them and lead them here without anyone's knowledge or even trying to alert me? He chuckled. "you can see that you have no choice but to do my bidding then and only then can we finally get to do what we should have done in the first place. Well, I don't blame you at all. If you know that you are just going to waste your time, it won't take me to destroy the people you love the most in your life. I hear that the Alpha loves children so you'll produce new ones for him." His words didn't even make any sense because why was he acting as if it didn't take a lot to make a child? "You don't have to speak condescendingly about my husband. You can either allow us to have a conversation or you forget it. Why the unnecessary talk?" The man gritted his teeth for a minute. "I've stated my case since the moment I came here but what were you all doing? Acting like you could outsmar

    Ember squealed. "You're a naughty boy." She replied when Xander took her inside the shower. "We are too old to be having these sessions." She replied. Xander didn't think that anything was wrong with him wanting to have an alone time with his lovely wife so he smiled at her. Ember smiled at him. "I'm sorry, I was just kidding." She told him.His eyes crinkled with mirth. "I know, right. I don't even care about what you want to say but I believe that you will enjoy today's session. It promises to be mind-blowing." He bragged. She smiled at him while stroking his beards playfully. "Do you even know what this means?" She teased him.Xander peeled off the dress from her shoulders quietly and stared at her figure. "You look exquisite. I don't think I've seen anyone like you." He muttered softly while smacking his lips for effect.She rolled her eyes at his words. He would say anything just to have his way with her. "What do I expect? It's been almost twenty years." She complained.Xande

    Sixteen Years Later, Dennis bounced into the room dripping with sweat and ran down to the kitchen to get a bottle of water from the fridge but met a restriction. He looked up and saw his twin brother staring at him with a glare. "Take a shower instead, you'll feel calm." He said.Dennis went mute for a minute before throwing a punch at him but his brother was faster and had predicted the move so he ducked at the last minute."Get away from the fridge, both of you!" Ember yelled and they jumped apart. She saw that they were mad at each other which made her worried. "You too are supposed to have each other's backs not be a thorn in each other's flesh." She whispered. She was trying so much to raise children who were devoid of hate and malice. The Alpha position was an edgy one which she hoped that they didn't fight each other for but coexisted perfectly together. "Why do you feel the need to show your powers when you are supposed to be each other's best friends?" She demanded The

    Three years later"Mummy, can I have a taste now?" One of the boys asked and Ember shook her head, looking down at him with a smile as he had his hands around her legs."Don't be such a baby. It's not ready yet," His twin replied, rolling his eyes as he crossed his arms. The one who had his hands around Ember's leg, shot his brother a glare."Well, I wasn't talking to you" He snapped and Ember downplayed a smile threatening to form on her lips.She stirred the pasta, before turning around to face the boys just in time, when her favorite head came into her view.Xander's hair was disheveled and sticking out. He looked like he just walked out of the shower. He rounded the counter, wrapping his arm around her waist, pulling her flush against his body."This smells delicious," He closed his eyes, taking a sniff.

    Ember's POV. A pang of headache hit me as I felt my eyes open, my legs shaking beneath my gown. Everywhere seemed black, but the sun rays through the barred hole on the door shone brightly. I strove to stand up, taking what felt like an eternity to raise a leg. Something that felt like shaped iron clashing against each other rang in my ear, and I felt compelled to know what was happening outside. I sprinted toward where the backdoor was, my legs shaking after every step, my heart racing faster with every step I took. The sound of crashing iron and steel and the rise of cries grew closer and thicker with every step I took. I had no idea what was happening outside, all I sought was to escape from this dungeon. Most of the guards were distracted by what was happening outside, none were looking my way. I guess it was lucky, and a chance for me to escape. I walked toward the exit door, but just as I reached there, the roar of a wicked smile halted me in my spot, and I was force

    Xander's POV. I was seated in my palace when an emissary holding a sealed letter was brought before me by one of my pack guards. As the emissary approached, I could sense a mix of curiosity and unease from my pack members "Greetings, Alpha Xander. I bring a message from Trent's pack." He fretted going down by reclining his head onto his knees. I took the letter, breaking the seal. My eyes scanned the parchment, and my gut twisted with every word. Trent was declaring war on us. I called a gathering with my elders. We sat in a circle, the letter passed among us. "This is madness," One of them growled. "Trent knows we won't back down." "We need to prepare for battle," Another suggested, her voice steady. "Gather our strongest warriors, Xander. We'll show Trent the strength of our pack." "I'll start scouting for allies. We can't face Trent's pack alone." I looked at my elders, determination burning within me. "We'll defend our pack" The elders nodded in unison, and I k

    Ember's POV I walked down the hallway slowly, this part of the house seemed to be more empty than the path I walked through once I reached the end of the house. I frowned wondering what wild goose chase Ellie sent me on. Xander wasn't here. Why would she send me here for no reason had she completely lost it? angry I turned to leave when I spotted Trent standing there with a wicked smile on his face, holding a sword. My stomach dropped knowing there was no way this was going to end well. “Trent! What are you doing here?” He smirked, the glint of the sword reflecting in the fading light. “Hello, Ember. Fancy meeting you here.” I took a step back, feeling panic rising. “Where’s Xander? He’s supposed to be here, did you do something to him?” Trent chuckled, his voice dripping with malice. “Oh, Xander isn’t coming. Ellie sent you her for me. I’m the one you’re dealing with.” Realization hit me like a punch to the gut. Ellie must have played me, setting me up for Trent. My instinc

    Author's POV. Xander walked hurriedly towards the port. He had booked a safe passage through the tunnel for Ember. It had not been cheap, but he knew it was going to be worth it since he was sure she would appreciate his efforts in helping her get her complete freedom. He arrived at the spot they had both agreed that they would meet. The port was mostly deserted at this time of the day so it was going to be relatively safe and easy for her to wall around without being found by people who work for Trent. He stood around for the next ten minutes, stifling the anxiety that was quickly growing in his chest. After ten minutes, he started to call her name as he looked around the area. It could have been possible that she had missed her way and was staying at another spot instead of the one they had initially agreed to meet. She was supposed to have been here. They had agreed that they would meet at that spot and he had been exactly on time. If there had been any delay or anything t

    Ember's POV. I wasn't moved by her words because I knew that I had a higher backing that would help me out when it was time. All she just needed was the go-ahead from me. Then I knew that she would be able to go ahead to focus on getting the answer. I chuckled softly and looked at her. "Did you want us to respect you, Ellie? You should accord yourself some respect." I told her and she looked at me. "Who the hell are you?!" She challenged me. Her eyes flared at me and I smiled at her. "Are you my husband's concubine?" She asked and I held myself from saying just like you were. That would be a big slap on her face which I didn't really mind though. I liked the fact that she was really struggling to make it work. I didn't care about her and all that she was doing. All I wanted to know is that there would be a need for us to just stay for a while and rest before finally talking about our past life. In just a few years she would be controlling the whole arena but if I stood up rig

    Ember's POV. I couldn't help but feel very remorseful when he came close to me. I was a bit skeptical in the beginning but after a while I finally realized that there might be something missing which I wasn't taking into cognizance. Xander reclined into the seat as he stared at me but I maintained his glare. He wasn't going to unnerve me. So what if he didn't sleep with her? All of this was still his fault. If he had not taken those steps when he finished getting her pregnant, then maybe I wouldn't resent him this much. "You didn't defend me when I needed you the most, I don't think you remember that incident, or do you?" I asked him and he shook his head. "I don't think I do. Why would I purposely not want to talk to you? I was under an influence and believe me when I say that it's something that I regret till this day because of this now we are in deep shit.
