Lucy's POV

I fell to the ground after reading this, I was shattered and tears gushed out of my eyes. My whole body shook like I was having a fever. I remained on the floor for as long as I couldn't take note of until I received a knock on the door.

“Could that be him coming back for me?” I muttered as I rose to my feet. I really longed for him after giving him my virginity and sharing my first wolf bond with him. I couldn't let him go like that, that even when he rejected me and I felt his wolf had left me, I couldn't reciprocate it. I rushed towards the door wishing it would be him, I'm ready to take him back a thousand times but when I opened the door, my heart sank.

The hotel staff.

“Good morning, ma'am. You booked just a night and so far your time has elapsed thirty minutes ago. Hope all is well?” They asked, seeing the tears in my eyes. “We saw your partner leaving so early.”

I didn't say a word but went inside and packed my undies, stuffing them into my bag. I reached out for my phone and the paper on the table. It was the last thing I could ever want to go with, Eric's rejection letter but I wanted something that will remind me of his beauty, his gentleman attitude and understanding.

I left the hotel, signing out at the reception.

While taking a taxi back to my apartment, I wondered why he was so gentle and loving from the first time he met me to the last minute I slept off. I wondered why he rejected me in my sleep and did not wait till I was awake to do that to my face.

“He didn't want to hurt you,” my wolf replied, sick and saddened.

“But he ended up hurting me!” I retorted, I wonder if I'll ever be able to get rid of him from my heart.

I wasn't myself all through even after days passed, I kept longing for him but sadly, I never came across him. My bestie and three other students whom I shared a room with at the hostel observed my gloomy mood which wouldn't go away for days, no matter what they did to make me happy. So they reported to the Student Affairs Unit, saying I was behaving suicidal.

I was taken for a series of tests, ranging from psychological to medical, at the end of which I got the greatest shock of my life. It was three weeks after meeting with Alpha Eric.

The college doctor came out with files on her hands, a set of darkened eyes and a serious face.

“You're three weeks pregnant with triplets, two boys and a girl.”

“Huh-hh?” My mouth sprang open, my eyes widened upon hearing this.

“Hmm, we're sorry about this but I don't guess the school will let you continue studies here since you aren't officially married.”

“We encourage students, especially the girls, to finish their studies before starting a family. You may go now.”

I stood up slowly upon getting my result, my brain packed with a whole lot of thought. My future now was uncertain.

“Mom will see me as a great disappointment,” I cried to my best friend as I began to pack my things. I didn't wait for the university to expel me.

“This is just my first year and I'm messing up.”

“I'm going to miss you so much!” I kissed her goodbye before leaving. It was my dream to go to school at the best Werewolf Academy in the world, but now my dreams have crumbled.

*********

THREE YEARS LATER

After leaving my former college, I returned to the pack, life was more difficult than I thought. I met with a lot of rejections, starting from my family to friends, everyone ridiculed me for getting pregnant out of wedlock.

“But he's my mate. I felt the mate bond.” I tried to defend myself each time people ridiculed me. It was of no use so soon, I stopped, accepted my fate and got prepared to take care of my kids, when they wean, I return to college.

It's three years now and my kids are three years now, taking over the handsome face of their dad. I was filled with nothing other than revenge for Eric should I ever meet him in this life. I would release all my sufferings in raising Austin, Dustina and Justin on his head. Besides, I was in my third year in college.

With this milestone set in my life, my love life was unstable. From getting pregnant without a mate to take responsibility, I got stunted being a single mother.

“You would never find love!” A lot of people said this. Mom and dad never said it openly after coming to be so fond of their grandkids, rather they said it indirectly. The werewolf world isn't like the human world, the number of single mothers were really scarce and unless one's mate is dead, a single mother was viewed as an outcast and undeserving of love.

It was like a miracle when I came upon Leo, my childhood best friend who turned up to support me. He was of noble lineage and with this, he was permitted to live in the pack estate with his family. My dad is the Gamma of the Phoenix Pack, with this, we got to live together. Dad and mom tried their best to suit us together as a couple, we did very well not until Diane returned from overseas, then everything changed. The love we'd built for three years slowly began to drift apart, putting back into the tag of single mothers.

“If I ever fall in love again, let me–”

Before I could complete my statement, mom blocked my mouth stopping me from speaking. She shot me a warning glare.

“You won't die single. As my daughter, I won't let that happen.” She vowed.

“I wish I was a human!” I cried, falling to the ground. My heart was broken to pieces. “Leo wasn't meant for me, I really doubt now if he ever saw me as a romantic partner for once.”

    Lucy's POV It wasn't evident with us romancing and having sex while living together. It didn't matter how cool and caring he behaved towards me and my kids. I now doubt if all those while he saw me as a good woman and best friend he needed to protect in adversity. “Why hasn't he broken up with me officially?” I questioned myself as I sat alone in my room after meeting with my mom to talk about Leo. He was now getting closer and friendlier with Diane. I'm pretty sure because of her, he had to give the excuse of wanting to return back to live with his parents still in the estate. “Did he ask you out officially?” My wolf questioned in response to my doubt, then the whole truth behind this dropped. Leo was a childhood best friend and so far he remained one, a best friend while I was raising my kids. My kids were most of the time under the care of mom and dad, especially when I was at school or having my mood swings. I was walking through the estate hallway, west wing towards Leo’s ap

You're not any close to beautiful.” Tears formed in Diane's eyes. “I'm sorry for what–” “No need!” I stopped him before he could complete his statement knowing where he was heading to, besides this wasn't the proper place for that. I just wanted to use him to hurt Diane and Leo since they believed I wasn't good enough to attract any man. With his physique, his cute, charming eyes and his princely aura, he was just enough to play this role perfectly. He looked like the perfect handsome model in vogue and other fashion magazines. Leo couldn't contest with him in a fashion show. Diane was absolutely hurt by this, her face fell in dejection. I grinned. This is exactly what I wanted. He was just my perfect candidate to arouse jealousy in the eyes of my rival. Just for this moment. I don't think I'll still view him this way after now. “I wou

    Lucy’s POV My mind was drifting in two directions, I didn't know if he was trying to make me pity him or not. I had to leave coupled with the fact that I was feeling sleepy and exhausted. Eric, together with my wolf tried to pull me back but I was firm and stern on them.“I'm tired of being your little toy. I'm no longer the Lucy you met three years ago who could be easily toiled with.” I growled at him while he pleaded with his pitiable eyes, asking me to stay. No doubt I wanted to hurt him badly but I was uncertain of when and where would be the perfect encounter but my wolf told me I'll get to meet him again, then two statements rang in my mind. “I'm an Alpha descendant,” which he said three years ago and “I'm here to stay!” There is no doubt he's from the Phoenix Pack. “That's not a problem! Wherever that will be.” I promised myself. He won't really feel what he did three years ago until I do something similar to him. Without this, I'll know no rest. I arrived home late, falli

    Lucy's POV It was still like a trance. I refused to believe that the father of my kids was the new Alpha who would be staying with us at the pack estate. What will happen when we start seeing each other every day? "Welcome our new Alpha," my dad, the Gamma of our pack announced. My ears were itching to hear his name. "Alpha Eric Bennett, the Alpha's first son who decided to venture into the military profession for eight years abroad to prepare him for the role of leading the pack. Now, he's back." I stared at him, standing, tall and exceedingly handsome with his charmingly scorching eyes, looking fierce in his military uniform decorated with several medals. I brushed off the sexy thoughts that were beginning to form inside of me, revenge was the goal. But even with this, sensations didn't go away. I felt like releasing from my core. My legs grew weak. So literally, he would be my Alpha from now on? I gulped down the saliva on my throat. I thought that Alpha Eric was far away,

"Now disperse!"I glared at him, he had a serious look on his face. I realized he was also talking to me. I turned and went back to the apartment."Don't worry, I'll return to my wing myself," Leo said to Diane. She was following behind me, her eyes were evil. After a while, when u turned, Eric was still standing over there by the corridor gazing at us. He waited for us to go away before he walked.At noon after lunch, I had my best friend, Caroline, come to pick me up for school. Since I had lectures by 12:30 PM, I had to eat my lunch by 11:30 AM, rather than the usual 1:00 PM. I wasn't one of those who enjoyed taking food to school, it made me look like I was in basic school."Hey baby, I arrived on time today to pick you up.

    Lucy's POV "What's going on?" Caroline asked when she noticed I wasn't steady."Nothing," I smiled then stood upright, acting thrilled like other students."Alpha Eric here," the professor continued. "Is the Academy President you all have been dying to see. He's the new Alpha of our pack as well. It's indeed a great honor. Let's welcome him with a round of applause."Suddenly the auditorium rioted with a great applause which almost ended up deafening the ears. All the students were here so it's not quite difficult imagining how it will sound having all the students clap at once. Alpha Eric raised his hand. Everyone dropped dead silence, a silence of utmost shock and amazement. “Is this the power and authority he carries?” I was puzzled. “Hmm,” I sighed, wondering which way would suit me best to get revenge with such great authority. "Good evening students," he greeted for the first time. Once again, I was hearing his rich, husky voice which sent sparks into my nerves."I'm Alpha

    Lucy's POV I placed a call on my best friend, Caroline prior to Eric's request. We both had our own secrets, he asked me to meet him in his office because he had something to say, well I had something to show him. “I really didn't want to tell him now. Perhaps I was just thinking of leaving the pack and raising my children over there?” I suggested, confused. “What if school, don't tell me you want to change Academy again?” Caroline asked. “You wanna keep suffering in raising them all by yourself when you can obviously get help?” “No babe, come to think about all these.” She stressed. “I didn't want him to know so early.” I retorted. “I know you're really angry at what he did to you but since he has pleaded with you to hear him first, I guess you should.” “Hmm,” I sighed reluctantly. “Just go with your kids, if he did that to you purposely, he will be hurt. He will feel guilty.” Caroline let me know. I nodded, swallowing the lump in my throat. It's 7:30 PM. My kids were watchi

    Eric’s POV “So you really want to know what happened between me and my ex?” I leaned closer to her face while she was on my lap asking her, my voice was not so deep, I didn't look quite serious in my quest to tease her a little bit. She tightened her face looking away. “I hope you aren't playing with me?” She growled. I let out a serious face, shrugging my shoulders. “Don't think of me with such low dignity. My girlfriend was Alexis Carlton, aka, Alex_G. That's her gang name.” “Ah-hhhhh!” I shifted back my head a bit watching as she gasped, holding her chest, pretending as if I didn't know that there was no one who didn't know Alexis. “What's that?” I asked. “You dated a gangster?” “She wasn't a gangster when I began dating her, she was a soldier colleague of mine at the Military Academy. Her dad was my godfather and he promised to guide me into being a general at a very young age if I stayed with her daughter.” Lucy’s eyes lowered a bit, slowly coming closer. She looked worr

Eric and I cuddled over the couch as we finished with our romantic session, feeling each other's warmth. This was another special moment for both of us.The time was 5 PM. I grunted, feeling nature was betraying us as the time seemed to go a little bit faster today.“What?” I watched as Eric jumped off the couch, dropping a kiss on my cheeks. “I have a little task to work on my system before we go to the doctor. You can dress up.” He said and started to put on his clothes.“Uh-hhh!” I groaned. “I wished the time was slower than this.”“Don't worry baby, we have the night for ourselves.

    Lucy's POVEric’s hand guided my back as I sat on him, his right pulled over my waist then to my face pulling my face closer to his. “I want to kiss you so bad,” he said in between gnashing his teeth. He understood the assignment that we weren't having sex this time around, so he was going to spark my brain with a series of romantic touches.Our lips nibbled, playing around each other. Our tongues felt the taste of each other, our front teeth clashed with each other as we continued to play with each other. Bliss flew into me, as my hands found his white shirt, I began to unbutton it down to the third button. His bulky chest was exposed right before me. I squirmed, jerking my head up as I brushed my hand over his chest.“Gosh!” I moaned.“You love what you see?” He asked of which I nodded to him. I pulled my body closer to his, engulfin

Alpha Eric ended the call with a deep breath, turning to me, he gave me a kiss on the forehead which got me giggling. He tucked the phone back into his pockets.“The man in the call speaks like a retired cop, was he one of them?”“Yes,” Eric said curtly.“No wonder.”“As I was saying, the girl confessed that she wants you too and challenged my relationship with you, how I could get you to come defend me and sack a professor that was quite popular.”“Who's she?” Eric asked with curiosity. We were inside the elevator now and the door was slowly closing in on us. He dropped me to the flo

A hard slap landed across my face. Anger was fuming inside of me. It dawned on me that this set of guards thought it was the other girl that was running away, I happened to be here at the exact time they were pursuing someone else.I wouldn't leave here without staging a fight!“Do you know who you are assaulting?” I lashed back at the guard who hit me, my eyes were so furious that I couldn't contend with it any longer. I somersaulted, hitting him hard across the face, he fell, tumbling over. Others drew nearer to me, I balled my fist, prepared to take them from all angles.&ldqu

From time to time I turned to have a look at her and each time she had this sinister grin on her which reflected in her eyes. Others might want the Alpha too but they aren't this frank, I wondered the confidence she had in challenging me this way.I smirked.After the class I watched as the girl hurriedly left, she wasn't with anyone, just alone. “That girl looks strange to me.” I whispered to Caroline.

I stood up immediately rushing to the convenience, I couldn't afford disgracing myself before everyone. Luckily, the feeling went away as I came here.I decided to check my phone before going back to the cafeteria. Three messages popped up with Eric’s name on top.“Hey baby.”“How are you doing?”“Hope there's no issue again in school. We will be going for family planning after school.”“Wouldn

I don't think the idea of keeping our relationship secret would help us. I kept on pulling in these thoughts to mind as I sat at the back of the car. The same driver who took us here was asked by him to take me back.I arrived at school thirty minutes later. I waved to the driver, wishing he would come back in the evening to pick me up. I had work to do at Eric's office from the punishment he gave to me, Diane and Mia would possibly be there. I don't think the Alpha can easily back down on his words.I walked through the silent track of the Academy heading towards the lecture theater where I had my next class which was left with twenty minutes to begin. I sneaked in through the back door as all the students were already seated in the front. I spotted Caroline.

What he would love to tell the king.”This hit me deep as I guessed it could be true. I shook my head, flinching my hair. I was ready for whatever was going to happen. Life as I saw it wasn't gonna be a bed of roses, that's for sure. I saw no need to give up easily.I brushed this incident off my mind. “I'm gonna stay with you, Eric, no matter what!” I said to him with firmness. “We have kids together and I can't wait to raise a happy family with you.”Eric raised me up from the couch pulling me to

I curtsied with a bow as I got in, over by his side was mom, I bowed to her in respect.“Alpha, please sit!” I got surprised over the way dad addressed me when he always called me
