MELINA’S POVTo say that I was elated was an understatement. If there is anything to describe how I feel now that is more giving than being excited, I'd use it. With everything that I've gone through in my life, the suffering, maltreatment from my former mate and being spoken down to, I never expected that I would be this loved and accepted. After giving birth to our baby boy, Talon, everything has been going so smooth. Too smooth if I may add. He had always been overprotective over me even when I was not pregnant. Now that we have a child together, it has gotten to another level entirely. He hardly leaves my side. He only does when he has pack duties to attend to or probably meetings. It's been a few days after Talon ce into this world, but my body still felt weak and sore. Though, I could feel my wolf trying as much as possible to heal me internally and I was mostly healed already. My magic powers already increased immensely even though I hardly used them. It was like the power
DWANE’S POVI looked at my wife as she snored gently, trying to pull the covers away from her body but I returned it. I had already layed Talon to sleep in his crib, now my sole attention is focused on Melanie. Pushing away the hair that covered her face, I entered into the duvet and craddled her in my arms. As if she sensed me, she wrapped herself around me, throwing her legs on mine. This made me chuckle to myself. I kissed the top of her forehead and rested my head on it. I knew she was going through a lot recently. After the birth of our child, she's been stressed. Though she didn't show it in anyway, probably she did not want Mr to feel stressed about it. But I think sje forgot that we were mates and I could feel her emotions.She was always overthinking. I could not pin point what it was about, but I knew it was either about the baby or about herself.I've caught her looking at her body in the mirror countless times with a deep look on her face, like she does not like what sh
MELANIE’S POVEverything was going well until I was told by someone that there was going to be a feast for me and my child. Not that I didn't want it, but I didn't know how to feel about it. With the insecurity I felt about my body, I don't think I'll be able to handle been in a room full of people bustling with joy and energy and not spoil the atmosphere. Dwane was doing this for me and I knew it. It was just that, I was not sure I could cope with the way and state my body is in. He has never at any point made me feel insecure or anything. It was all in my head and I knew it. Sometimes, when I wake up in the morning and look at myself in the mirror, without his knowledge and him knowing of course, I sometimes felt like crying. But looking in the bright side, was Talon, my child. As I looked at him now in the carrier that he was inside, I smiled. He was already looking at me. He smiled back, rubbing his small, cute palms together. Everyone that met me on the way has been compleme
UNKNOWN’S POVI screamed in agony as I felt the twig of a tree enter my leg. I walked off hurriedly as soon as I removed the twig. Seeing the way that the woman was happy with her child made my blood boil. I hated it so much. She didn't deserve to live such a happy life, after she ruined mine. All of them in that pack, deserve to burn. To burn in my wrath. I looked down at my wound and it was bleeding profusely. I tried to heal it with my power but it seemed like it wasn't possible to do. I growled out loudly. I continued walking gently trying to get to the reason I am doing this. The reason I have to take revenge on all of them. I didn't look at where I was going and I slipped down the rocks there again. As I went down the hill, I swore to take revenge.As soon as I hit the ground, I was bleeding visibly, in all of my body. A normal human would have died from the fall, but I wasn't normal in any way. I laughed evily, very loudly, and didn't care if there was anyone around to h
MELANIE’S POVEverything was going fine and well. Dwane had actually introduced me to most people in the room of higher status. I was literally on his arm through out. He didn't allow me to leave, kissing the side of my head from time to time. I know I would have a permanent blush on my face through out the party. The only time he left me alone was the time I said I wanted to check on Talon. He seemed to be having the time of his life with Ana. Enjoying the attention of the people that surrounded him. Some of them were actually people I don't know that seemed to be around my age. The feast was in full swing now. After the dance that Dwane and I had opened, we all went in to the other side of the ballroom that was a very large dining table.I didn't know a table could be that long. It literally accommodated everyone in the party. Different and assorted foods where there. Mainly meat. Maybe because of the alphas that were around.I had noticed that in Dwane too. He won't eat a meal i
DWANE’S POVI felt calm. More than I have felt in days. Or probably maybe weeks. I felt all the emotions around us simmer down. Her in my arms right now, felt so right, like she was not meant to leave there at all. These past few days had been really horrible for me. Not been able to talk to her about how she felt. I thought maybe if I had spoken to her, asking her to tell me how she felt, she might have withdrawn entirely from me. The feeling of her withdrawing away from me wasn't one of the best ones I have had. I hated how much I had to deal with that. I thought that throwing this feast for her would have actually rectified it and at least made her happy. She was actually happy, or so I thought, until an annoying creature from my past decided to show up. And knowing Amber for who she was, she might have actually spun up some annoying words to make her angry.I felt the immediate change in her emotions as soon as Amber walked up to her. Aren had never liked her and had always to
MELANIE’S POVI was stressed. Mentally and emotionally, I was exhausted. Not that I will have it any other way. But, who knew training and taking care of a child would be this exhausting. These days or maybe this past few months has been the best of my life. The fear I had when I just gave birth to my baby just blew away as soon as they came. Things worked well for me. Dwane and I talked about a lot of things after that party night that he gifted me a car. He pestered me and me tell him everything that was on my mind. Which I did. He had first laughed which made me angry, but then he later explained to me that he loved me that way. He even said that he like the exta pounds of flesh that I added on. I had not believed him then, but his actions worked it out. He made me feel beautiful in every sense of the word. I didn't feel pressured to wanting to change how I was. Even though I later reduced with some exercises that I strictly kept my self to and a few training sessions with him
DWANE’S POVSomething was wrong. I knew it in my bones that something felt off. Immediately I drove into the eatery, I figured it out. But I didn't just want to follow my gut feeling and I didn't want to ruin the excitement that Mel had.I shook the feeling off so as to enjoy the evening with her.The food was delicious, and the atmosphere was cozy and romantic. We were having a wonderful time until I noticed something strange. There was a waiter who kept giving me odd looks. I couldn't shake the feeling that something wasn't right. I tried to put it out of my mind and focus on Melanie, but I couldn't help but feel uneasy.Melanie would not stop talking about the interior of the place and how pretty it looked. We spoke about different things and I tried to make sure she doesn't notice my anxiousness.As we were finishing our meal, I noticed the waiter approaching our table. He was probably coming to drop the check or maybe clear off the table. But, I couldn't shake the feeling that
As Emma was escorted away in custody, her threats echoed back at Dwayne and Melina as stood together.Emma screamed in defiance "You'll pay for this! 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. We were all worried about you and the baby."" I'm sorry, Anna. It all happened so fast, and the safety of my child was at stake"Aren chipped "They're back home now Anna, and everyone is safe.i think that's what's important"She took the baby from Anna and with a very inquisitive tone asked "who was
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. What could have happened?""Let's check on the baby first."She nodded softly "Something's not right."He slowly opened the door, revealing a room that should have been filled with the warmth of their child. Instead, they were met with a scene that shattered their peace – the nanny lifeless on the floor, and the baby's crib empty.Me
Dwayne held open the car door for Melina as she entered the car before going to the other side of the car and getting in himself , the driver turned on the ignition and soon they were their way to the banquet hall.Dwayne held out his arm to Melina as they stepped out of the car in front of the banquet hall, Melina leisurely placed her arm in his giving him a look that screamed the words " I trust you " and with that both of them walked towards the gigantic doors of the hall , by the door were a couple of guards who bowed to them as they walked through the doors.Melina turned to Dwayne almost whispering "I still feel uneasy about the idea of being bowed to"Dwayne replied her in the same manner "You'd better start getting used to it as you'll be getting a lot of bows from now"Both of them couldn't help giggling at their childishness but the lovely moment was soon interrupted by a masculine voice that erupted behind them."Who else if not the latest couple in town " said Aren with a
It was almost time for the banquet so Melina took a dip in the tub which was full of herbs that helped rejuvenate the skin , after taking her bath she could feel her skin was smoother and a lot softer , she went to her dressing table and applied some essential oils and scented oils all over her body, by the time she was done the sweet scents filled the room.She proceeded to wear the dress she had picked , thinking the event was going to be a simple one like the wedding ceremony Melina picked out a knee length blue halter neck dress . Just as she was about to slip into the dress she heard a knock on her door The voice said from behind the door "My lady , may I come in?"Melina quickly put her robe back on before answering "come in"The door opened and Nina who was a servant in the mansion came in holding a rather big box."Alpha Dwayne asked me to bring this to you my lady " she said while placing the box down on the bed."Thank you , where is he ?" Asked Melina Nina answered court
Dwayne and Melina got married almost immediately after the official announcement. it was a simple wedding ceremony with just a few representative of each clan in attendance . The sacred ceremony was held at the temple of the moon goddess and officiated by the shaman.The duo knelt before the statute of the moon goddess while the shaman performed the rites , he handed them two cups with drinks in it " you may now say your vows " he said motioning to Dwayne to take his vows first " I Dwayne Alpha of the dark Moon pack hereby take Melina as my Luna and vow to protect her with my life , holding her hands through thick and thin , never to be apart from her in life and in death " said Dwayne as he smiled at Melina."I Melina of the crescent pack hereby take Alpha Dwayne as my husband and vow to stay by his side through thick and thin protecting him with my life, never to be apart from him in Life and in death " said Melina with a huge smile on her face. The shamman nodded "You will take
As they all walked out of the hospital after Melina got discharged Dwayne said gently "Melina, I insist you stay at my place for a while. I've a nurse to take care of you and the baby. It's important to me that you both have the best care possible"Melina smiled broadly "Dwayne, you've already done so much for me. Are you sure about this?"Dwayne nodded "Absolutely sure. It's not just about what I've done; it's about what we can do together for your well-being and the baby's. I want to make sure everything is perfect."Melina felt touched"That means a lot to me, Dwayne. Thank you."Anna chipped "Melina, I'll help you pack your things. We'll make sure you have everything you need at Dwayne's place."Melina gave her a warm smile "Anna, you're a lifesaver. I wouldn't know where to start without your help""It's the least I can do. Besides, it's my godson were talking about here"Dwayne looked at Melina with a warm smile "everything will be comfortable and ready for your stay.As Melina g
Anna got to the vending machine and saw a boy of about ten years kneeling on his hands and knees franctically trying to reach something under the bench that was right beside the machine, he heard her footsteps and he gave me a rather big smile as she approached the machine." Good day miss " he said he said looked up at me while still on his hands and knees." Good day to you ..." She said stuttering a bit , the boy looked rather unkept but his outstanding feature was his bright smile." Jay, my name is Jay" he said" Ooohk Jay that's a lovely name " she said then I noticed a candy bar on the bench He said pleadingly ."Can you please help me get my coin , it fell under the bench and I can't reach it " Anna crouched to the ground trying to figure where the coin was but it was so far she had to get down on all fours to be able to reach it, she pulled out the coin and handed it to him ."Thank you miss, now I can buy a candy for Browny too " said Jay happily as he inserted the coin int
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. You can donate"Dwayne sighed with a bit of relief "Let's do it doctor"Anna glanced at Dwayne, silently grateful for what he had just done"After what felt like eternity the heavy doors of the ER swung open again and the doctor came out smiling "The surgery went well. We successfully delivered a healthy baby boy"Dwayne's eyes welled up with tears, a mixture of relief and overwhelming joy as he couldn't believe his ears "A boy? Is Melina okay?"The doc
