Melina's pov The light of dawn seeped into the room through the slightly drawn curtains, lightening up the previously dark room. The just risen sun shone softly, casting a rosy hue across the morning sky.The first rays of sunlight seeped into the room and I squinted my eyes open. Unable to adjust to the sudden brightness, I closed them back and took in a deep breath before opening them again.I glanced around the room and took in a deep breath to wake myself. Just in time, the loud blaring of the alarm jolted me completely awake and I sat up with a start. The moment I sat up, I grimaced in discomfort.Fuck! My whole body aches and my head bangs a lot from the many tears I shed yesterday, I held my head down in pain, as I tried to suppress the pain I was feeling from the migraine that was kicking in. I dragged my leg to the wardrobe, in search of a medicine I could use to suppress the headache from getting worse. After a long period of searching for the medicine I couldn't
MELINA’S POVMy heart ached as I sat in the crowd and pretended everything was fine when I had just lost my child, a tragedy that has weakened me. I still felt the pain like an invisible chain around my neck.Alpha stood up to address the packmate in replacement of me. He told them to feast and dine. My eyes were on the alpha when he was making the announcement. A lot of thoughts ran through my mind as I asked myself a lot of rhetorical questions. Was the alpha a monster? Does he really love me or pretend to do? I felt down cause the alpha didn't act like we just lost our child, but he was perfectly fine.But I deserve the right to mourn the death of my child. After all, I was a mother. Perhaps he doesn’t feel the pain of this loss like I do. He was acting like a monster. Alpha came back to sit beside me after addressing the packmate. It was time to dine, and I refused to eat my food then he tried to use his power on me. Alpha glared, his eyes aflame with anger. But what I f
UNKNOWN’S POVThe Alpha had decided to hold a feast in celebration of the bountiful harvest we had this month and also celebrated the victory we had against the latest rogue's attack. Entering into the kitchen, everyone was busy with either the serving, cooking or washing. I was happy as this was the perfect day to carry out my plan, as no one would suspect a thing.Moving into the pack house, the party was already in full swing. With me lurking behind the podium, I stared at Alpha Dwayne, who happened to be engrossed in a serious conversation with beta Aren. It definitely would do about the rouges that have been crossing the borders,” I thought........ Different delicacies were arranged on the table, and different utensils and silverware were all arranged on the big dining table. In the pack house, everybody was busy with one thing or the other, trying to get everything done fast, young pups running and playing around in the moonlight. It was such a cozy and lively evening.I stoo
DWAYNE POVMoonlight drifted through the blinds, dilating the cerulean blue of my curtains, casting blue shadows across my eyes. It was a full moon tonight. The sounds of music playing and pup giggles show everyone was still having a good time at the party. Pacing back and forth in the office, I realized how hurt Melina was. My wolf Zirus has been whining to see mate. I didn't know why she was not getting the fact that she must be okay. She had to be okay for me to function properly. I had to function properly for the pack, too. Because if anything happened to her, it would affect me. So she had to understand that. I really needed a drink. Eyeing the steaming cup of coffee, I picked it up, about to drink it, but my mind immediately drifted back to Melina. She hasn't eaten anything. I dropped the cup on the table and then left for the room. I left the office, heading straight to my room, hoping that Melina would listen to me.I knocked twice, No answer. I also called her name there
UNKNOWN'S POV "Riiinngggg, Riiinnngg, Riiinnngg," the bell in the maid's apartment rang, waking me up from my beauty sleep. Fucking hell!Cussing out loud, I roll over my bed just to fall flat on my face. Some waves of laughter were heard from the other maids, making me livid. But I couldn't care less because today was going to be a great day, A day when all my plans came to pass. Hopefully, he drank the coffee, where the poison I had kept in Alpha Dwayne's coffee would work, that would make him hate Melina and love me and only me. Finally, I would get out of this shithole, and those who laughed at me would soon now bow down to me as their Luna.” I smiled inwardly. I used my hands to cover my face as the brightness of the sun peeking from behind the curtains hit me on the face. After so much struggle trying to get up from the floor, I stood up from the bed, changed into my towel, carried my toiletries and dashed straight to the bathroom before it became full. On getting to the
MELINA'S POV I could hear the morning birds chirping sweetly with their melodious voices, and I smiled brightly, waiting for the rays of the sun to hit my face. Suddenly felt a sharp pain in my abdomen. Still with my eyes closed, I rolled to my left, trying to fathom what was happening. This was quite unusual. I had never felt this way before, not even when I had period cramps. The pain came again. This time, it was more painful than the first.Not too long after, I realised that everywhere had become chilly. The temperature of the room was freezing. What's happening?Everywhere was normal a few minutes ago. What was happening? This was very odd.Suddenly, an unknown Force surged through me, and I tried opening my eyes, but they felt so heavy. I had to get them open, and I needed to know why my body hurt so much. All I could see was darkness. The darkness I feared so much. I hungered for light, but I couldn't see a thing. What was happening? I hope it wasn't what I was thinking t
MELINA POVDays and days have passed on, still nothing has changed. I still couldn't see, and I still felt sharp pains, too.Just like our pack doctor said, he came with the neighboring pack doctor, whose name happened to be Ricky. Some days earlier, the pack doctor of the neighboring pack came. After running a series of tests, he also confirmed that nothing was wrong with me, that the scan showed that nothing was wrong with my body system.This had every one of us confused, including the pack members ."So you can't tell me why I feel pains all over my body, and even why can't I see", I questioned in frustration.Luna, according to the results of tests, it strongly suggests that you are fine and nothing is wrong with you. "I am so sorry I couldn't be of help", he said. This had me and Dwayne worried because something was definitely wrong with me, I was tired.Why is this happening to me? Why was fate been cruel to me. I just lost my child and now am blind.I am a lonely mother who
UNkNOWN'S POVI woke up on the beautiful side of the morning, a smile on my face as my legs strolled to the window. I pulled open the curtains as the first ray of sunlight made its way in and illuminated my room. My eyes stared at the view outside my window, my eyes closed as my face tilted up to the sun to enjoy the warmth. I slowly dropped my head and my gaze was transfixed on a beautiful butterfly, fluttering it's wings about as it perched on different fragrant flowers. It never stayed on one flower for long as it bounced around the flower bushes but almost in a split second the butterfly was gone. Grabbed by a long tongue and shoved into the Okmouth of a waiting caterpillar, camouflaged and unsuspecting.It reminded me of myself. A demon waiting in the darkness to strike at that unsuspecting moment. A moment when they were off their guard. Today was going to be a great day for me, I could feel it. The happiness that flowed through my body made me giddy with joy. Everything was

Both of you!"The officer that was escorting her away replied her sternly "Save your threats for the wolf court council"Melina, holding the baby close "She won't harm us anymore"As Emma was escorted away a sense of relief washed over them, knowing that a major part of their problem had been solved. The authorities assured them that justice would be served.As Melina and Dwayne apprached the mansion Anna came running towards them closely followed by ArenAnna with deep concern all over her face " Melina, you can't just disappear like that.

Emma's bitterness spilled forth as she recounted the path that had led her to that vengeful moment."I was meant to be the Luna, destined to stand by Dwayne's side. I devised a plan to frame you for betraying him, but even then, he forgave you. It was infuriating. My rightful place was snatched away by your mere presence.""All this time, you've been plotting against me for something as trivial as being with Dwayne?"Emma's eyes glinted with resentment. "Trivial? It was everything to me! I couldn't let a blind girl be preferred over me, the rightful Luna. I thought blinding you would make you insignificant, but you still found a way to worm your way into his heart."Melina's mind raced, "And now you're using my son to get back at me? What do you gain from all this cruelty?"Emma leaned forward, a venomous smile on her lips. "I gain satisfaction, revenge, and the position I rightfully deserve""Dwayne married me, and nothing you do will change that. You can't erase the bond we share, n
After the banquet Melina and Dwayne bade some of the guests goodnight and soon they were on their way home.Dwayne took a look at her and found her fully staring at him with those sexy eyes " You know if you keep staring at me that way I doubt if I would be able to concentrate on driving" he said with sincerity" Alright then " muttered Melina before leaning her head backwards to the headrest.They got home and Pulling up in front of the house they noticed it looked a bit too quiet Dwayne turned almost whispering to Melina "did you tell the servants to leave a window open or something?Melina replied anxiously "No, everything was locked up when we left.

Instead, they were met with a scene that shattered their peace – the nanny lifeless on the floor, and the baby's crib empty.Me

The room fell silent for a moment with the weight of what the doctor said fully sinking in. Dwayne turned to the doctor "What's her blood type?""It's O negative, a rare type indeed"Anna, her voice tinged with concern, looked at Dwayne "Do you know anyone with that blood type?"Dwayne nodded."I'm O negative as well"The doctor swiftly suggested the compatibility test, and the tension in the room became heightened as they awaited the results.After a while the doctor returned with the results "Dwayne, your blood type matches Melina's.
