Henry's POV.

-

“I-I…w-want to go…h-home.”

I hear a very weak and tranquil voice bubble out of her trembling lips and I suddenly feel guilty. Letting go of her hand, she retracts it protectively. Much to my hurt and I look away. “I’ll drop you off. And there’s no refusing me”.

She just nods and I hear a sniffle. Now my heart cracks. I made my mate cry. Talon is depressed and I feel so sad within. I follow after her slow pace and shut the door when she’s securely in and promise myself to protect her and rid of whoever makes her cry again.

We remain in silence as I drive down the street. Yumi still sniffles and it’s breaking me, especially knowing she’s avoiding me on top. Or is it possible I triggered something? A trauma? A terrible memory?

I drive up to the front of her apartment building and turn off the engine. “Sorry about earlier if I startled you. I hope it doesn’t bother you much…goodnight then.”

Those aren’t the words I want to say. At least, it should be followed by a long

    Yumi's POV- “What book is that?” Henry asks, staring at the back of the book Zainab is reading across from him on the island. “Oh, this?” Zainab grins, turning the book around, “It’s a romance novel, ‘Paper Hearts’”. Zana rolls her eyes with a lazy groan, “That’s the twelfth time she’s reading it”. Henry chuckles humorously, “Stench fanatic”. I look between the three, busy filling my mouth with buttered popcorn. Henry would occasionally give me smoldering glances that often shake my body whole and the way his eyes would drag along the stretch of my lips…I couldn’t help the unstable heartbeat. “So, uh…” I try to speak but a munched-up popcorn drops from my mouth. Oh my word! How embarrassing. “You were saying?~” I hear his sultry voice blowing against the shell of my ear and my body shivers greatly. I start to fidget, looking over to the girls for help but they grin maliciously at me. Deserting me to my cold fate. “Alpha Henry, we just recalled there’s something Mom wanted us t

    Yumi's POV- 5ft, 11 inches tall, alloy-orange long hair held in a male bun, amazonite eyes, and a funny sweet smile. That’s Nyx; my ex and first love. He’s only two years older than I am and he’s been mated to someone else for the past two years, and I’m deeply overjoyed he’s going to be a dad. “You look more excited than I do.” Nyx smirks and proceeds to say, “So, how’s it like now that you’ve found your mate?” I stiffen to stillness and everyone laughs at me. I blush, avoiding the teasing gazes. “It’s well um…good, I guess,” I give a shy and uncertain reply and Lisa holds my hand, making me look at her as she asks, “You guess? Hasn’t he marked you yet?” All eyes simultaneously turn to Henry at the head of the island and he shrugs with a groan. “Don’t give me those looks. She’s not as easy as she looks,” He chugs down his drink and sighs right after. Charles flashes a devious smirk with uplift brows, “Oh, that really? Then I’m guessing you’re out of it, huh. Committed?” I have

    Henry's POV.- “Smells so good, Yumi. Can’t I have a taste now?” “Sure. That’s if you’re okay with a burnt tongue”. Cheerful mockery giggles follow after. That’s the voice of my mate. I turn in the direction of the kitchen and stop just before the threshold to see her with an angry face and both small hands over each other on her forehead. “What did you do that for?!” She snaps at Nyx but he shrugs, walking away and towards the burners. “How much longer do I have to wait?” “Hey! It’s not just you eating that. We are all eating that.” “How many of us?” He deadpans. “Uh well, you, me, Henry, Charles, Delano, Drew, Lisa…Harvey when he gets back and his mom…” She thinks for a while, “…I think that’s it. Zana and Zainab betrayed me today so I won’t count them in”. I don’t know what to feel about this other than stewing anger and mad jealousy. Yumi never lets me close, she always avoids me and is not free around me. So, who exactly is he to her? How does she let him this close and ev

    Henry's POV.- I detach myself from the aroused girl, eyes firmly on my mate. She whines, “Why did you stop? I’m hoping to get laid!” In a monotonous voice, I say to her, having her freeze up frostily and cower with her body trembling so greatly. “Get the fuck off me”. I refill my glass of vodka, downing it with a quick reflex as I watch the strippers do their thing around the poles. They’re in nothing but bum shorts and see-through lace bras. Their fluid body movement is a deadly turn-on and I hope to get laid tonight by nook or by crook. I can’t allow one woman to overpower even my sex life. She has me under no leash, there’s no spell she got me bound to and I don’t owe her a heartbreak, so she can let me be and allow me to enjoy my paradise. The stripper directly in front of me winks seductively at me and I shift uncomfortably in my seat. She’s as hot as fire and got that curvy body I lust after like the moron I am. I lick my lips slowly, noticing how her peckish eyes trail the

    Yumi's POV.- “I’ll just go on a little walk. I’ll be back before the actual party starts,” I say to Carla and she looks suspiciously at me, squinting her eyes with puff cheeks. I grin foolishly. “You sure? Or you wanna go sneak a peek on Alpha Henry?” I blush at her accusation and jump quickly into defense as I flail my arms, “What? No!- I just wanna…look around, a little”. She giggles, patting my shoulder, “You can go. Just come back on time, okay?” I give her a positive nod and turn to walk away while putting on my earplugs and letting my K-pop playlist fill my ears. The sunset is so beautiful. It makes a warming smile infiltrate my face. I should be back in time. The party starts for real when it turns 6 p.m. “Alright then”. I admire the lines of tall trees and how beautiful the woods look from the setting sun. I hear the sounds of birds tweeting and the soft humming of the evening breeze. So calming and sensational. I sing out loud. Now away from people, I can sing freely

    Yumi's POV.- I haven’t seen him since then. More like I kept looking away and avoiding any form of contact. We were a little late for the party but I still got there after seeing the Pack doctor. Henry left halfway into the party and wasn’t seen again. But when I recalled what went down in the Woods, maybe he went to indeed ‘have fun’. My friends are still over there. I got tired of all the noise and bustling wolf vibes and left. So here I am, not in the Packhouse like I’d want to, but in my Mate’s mansion. All alone with the sleeping Tommy next to me on the couch. He ran around so much and got tired eventually. When I decided to head back, he tagged along. I stare down at him with a smile. He probably wanted to retire for the night itself. I let out a yawn. “No, no…I don’t wanna fall asleep yet. No one’s in to watch after us.” I stand up gently, sure not to wake the sleeping kid. I walk to the other side of the living room where there are large glass doors that lead to the verand

    Henry's POV.- After she left, I couldn’t help the blinding rage swirling inside my being and driving me mad. So mad that I dash after her intending to show her who she belongs to and remind her she’s none other than mine. I trace her into the kitchen with a force so strong that when I see her, a part of me literally just gives away into her compelling scent. But I shake it off. No! I must resist this. Yumi’s face drains immediately she lifts her head and meet gazes with me. I see the traces of fear filtering into her beautiful orbs and resist the urge to just pick her up and smash my lips down on her plum-parted ones. Spilling with so many mixed emotions, I grip the edge of the counter, making her yelp at the force I exert. “Why do you do this to me? Why am I regarded in the hostile way you treat me and not anyone else?” I try to sound calm, but I can’t help it. I just can’t bear her attitude towards me anymore. She fidgets frantically about her seat and sweat covers her face in

    Henry's POV.- Fuck. I left my phone behind. Damn that Harvey. He was all on using my phone for whatever videos he wanted to d******d. It completely slipped my mind to ask for it and now I need it to call Steven. I’m ‘drunk’, so I can’t drive. I lean against the driver’s side of my car, glancing around in hopes he might just show up to my rescue. Of course, every female passing by ogles at me lustfully but I think I’ve had my fill for tonight. And I’m in no mood to go through that offsetting aftertaste disgust. “Harvey,” I growl, gritting my teeth angrily. I’m so gonna drill my knuckles into his head till I wreck his brain. Unable to stay still and wait obediently, I saunter off my car and just let my lazy legs take me to wherever. On my walk, I get to see a payphone and slot a coin in to call Steven. Lucky for me, he’s somewhere in the city so I continue my walk until I walk into something. “She didn’t even let me explain why.” “Ugh, Nate, you spoil her too much. Eliza just know

    “That settles it,” I let out a sigh as I lean back against the backrest, stretching and flexing my arms before I rise from my seat. I wonder if Weslee must’ve woken by now.Searching around with my eyes briefly, I smile when they fall upon a heartwarming sight. They’ve fallen asleep again. Don’t think I’ll be able to stop by the grocery store. I step around my desk and walk towards the kids asleep on the couch, with temples pressed against each other and their school bags on their thighs. Bending forward a little, I tap their cheeks gently to rouse them up. “Heather, Zachery, wake up. It’s time to go home.” “I wasn’t able to finish my lunch at recess. Can I eat it on the way?” Heather chirps as I buckle her seatbelt before buckling that of her younger brother. “Okay, honey.” She beams at me as I ruffle her dark bangs and step back to shut the door so I can get in and drive over to her older brothers’ school. There’s no need to pick up Yohan since his grandma already did. I watch t

    Yumi's POV.- He’s not so surprisingly, an oddly familiar face. I suppose it’s because I’ve seen a few old photos to recognize him right away. And also, I avert my gaze slowly to the passenger side of the car and smile widely at the exit of his female partner. My mate moves immediately, unable to mask the sheer surprise that explodes onto his face as he swiftly approaches them. “Bloody hell, Aniki...” He sighs in a smiling voice. “I know Henry said they were gonna delay a bit, but he never mentioned you were the ones coming with them.” The attractive man hardens his expression upon Henry’s statement as they now stand before each other. Will you look at the looks on their faces? A cold standoff, really? “Um, Yumi...shouldn’t you do something about this?” Eliza nudges me and I turn to look at her and find her pensive. I huff and return my gaze along my response, “I’m sure it’s nothing serious.” Yeah, ‘cause right now, both men break the false tension to embrace each other with lau

    Yumi's POV.- “Hardin! Get your brothers down for breakfast!” I yell from where I’m standing at the foot of the stairs. Hands akimbo while I wait to hear his response before returning to the kitchen. “Coming, mommy!” His response comes shortly after with the sound of a door slamming, and I shake my head as I turn around to return to my station where my 7-year-old daughters are. Marian and Marina are twins we adopted 5 years ago. We had rescued them from a fire that claimed the lives of their family and took them in since they knew no one and had no relatives. They’re human kids who attended my kindergarten and now, they’re my added joy. Both identical girls are adorned with reddish-brown curly long hair and sea-green eyes. Ever enthusiastic and inquisitive kids who love to help me out with every chore around the house. I smile and join them to set the long dining table just when the boys come running in. “Stop right there!” I halt the bustling little crowd with a hand out. Hardin

    Yumi's POV.- “Don’t even think about it. Put that down- Now.” Henry glares threateningly at me and my hand quivers. He’s so scary. Solemnly looking into the big bowl of chocolate ice cream with a broken heart, I let the plastic spoon drop back in. I put on my puppy eyes, but he’s quick to dodge the shot and moves over the threshold. “Don’t let me catch you in this act again. I’ll be waiting outside”. Always so cold and stringent. I pout and depart from my precious bowl. I know why he’s being this way. Carrying our second baby, he’s being reminded of our first child we lost over a year ago. So he’s worn this sense of pensive responsibility over himself and is trying to protect me and prevent all odds. I can understand…I was equally hurt too. But…can’t you trust me, Henry? When I step out of the mansion, I’m met with the sight of my mate, exercising his alpha prowess, barking commands, and ordering reports. Henry…I suck in a slow breath, flattening a protective hand over my protr

    Henry's POV.- “Hey, little brother.” I approach him and he frowns at me. He hates it when I call him that and it’s all fun for me. “Busy these days, huh? Haven’t seen you much lately. Pack issues?” I try to take a roundabout way about it and he nods softly, “Yeah”. “Rogues?” His aura shifts and so do his mood and expression. Maybe Martins was right in the end. The stiff look on his face says it all. “What is she to you?” I press forward, taking on a serious tone and he lowers his gaze, brows furrowing and I know he’s reluctant to tell me. I can only marvel in surprise. This is rather new and unexpected. I smirk inwardly, this might be interesting. Liam’s now keeping things from me. She must be special. I tap him on the shoulder. “No need to look all cryptic. Come on, dinner's about to start without us”. He only nods with a hum and proceeds ahead of me as I watch after him. If my guess is right, things are getting interesting here. “You stuff all of that into your mouth? Amazing

    Henry's POV.- I chuckle lowly, a palm over my mouth so I don’t let the sounds out as I watch her in utter amusement. Yumi shoots an arm out of the blanket-roll she’s trapped herself in. Like an undead rising into life, her other hand shoots out and she moves in breaking attempts to lift her body off the bed. “Hen…ry.” Even her voice cracks like she’s just awakening from several years of slumber as half of her body emerges successfully from the blanket-roll. The sight is funny as she looks like a kebab roll. Ah…my thoughts are getting glazed over again. ‘Buttercup,’ She mind-links me and I smirk, defiantly moving from watching her to going to her aid. I come to stand next to the bed with my hands in the pockets of my sweatpants as I stare down at her, adoration coloring my vision. She twists her body so that she’s brought to lie on her back as she lets out a lengthy yawn, stretching her arms sideways with her eyes momentarily shutting. When she brings her eyes open, they give me

    Yumi's POV.- “He was rescued by a member of Alpha Delano’s Pack and had been with him ever since, receiving treatment. The Alpha himself only recently found out and waited for him to heal first. After finding out his identity, they sent him here immediately”. I listen to Kendal’s explanation whilst the tears coating my eyes. Pushing a smile through to my face as I cry the words, “Bryan…I thought we lost you”. I vacate my spot beside Henry to reach for Bryan who receives my hands that squeezes his tightly as relief bathes through me. With a better smile, I say with warmth and gratitude, “Thank the goddess that you’re okay.” Then I avert my gaze a bit to smile at Eliza who steps closer, nodding at me as she clumsily wipes the tears from her cheeks. With Bryan’s miraculous return, it all just falls into place. I’ve got my friends, family, and the whole Pack…I couldn’t be any more grateful than I am right now. Thinking I can recline back to relax a bit, Zana and Zainab are quick to

On an impulse, I dash toward him.My hands embrace him as I speak up in defense of myself.“No…no Henry. Don’t say that please…I…I was afraid…I failed you…I failed him…I failed me…I failed us…and I couldn’t keep him safe and alive….” I pour out and he just shuts his eyes, biting his lip as he remains still.I go on talking. “I didn’t mean to…it never occurred to me you were in so much pain…I’m sorry”.“It’s because you only keep thinking about none but yourself! You…you…made me regret us…” He strains, eyes open and lost.I shake my head desperately. God, I have wronged this man. He loves me to a fault and yet…all I do is bring him pain.But I won’t leave. I love him. I will show it to him…I won’t lose him.We can get through this…I have been blinded by myself and all I could se

    Yumi's POV-“I’m sorry, Luna…we lost the baby”. The deluge of drowsiness playing me disappears in an instant and I feel everything in me collapse.At first, I’m quiet and the next second, I break into a hysteria. Screaming and shouting…unable to bear the weight of this excruciating pain. Then I’m held down by the nurses as the doctor injects me. They let go just when everyone starts coming in and my vision sways and blurs. I fall asleep.On my waking, I refuse all who come to see me and refuse to talk to anyone. Especially not to my mate. The one I’ve failed the most.“Your medication is here, Luna,” The blonde nurse says to me and I turn my neck to thank her.“Thanks,” I say in a shallow voice, feeling more depressed now. The Doctor walks in and she leaves after making sure I take my meds.He’s come to discuss with me about my uterus.
