KatherineAfter hearing what the nurses had mentioned, I could not hide my anxiety anymore. My heartbeat escalated, and although my breathing was already labored, the air around seemed to have gotten denser making breathing even more difficult than it already was. "What do we do?" The first nurse inquired from the second."What about the operation?" I asked weakly but nobody seemed to listen. The doctor in charge wasn't the same as the other I had discussed with, and it was obvious he wasn't aware of my condition just yet."Her baby might not be able to make it" The second nurse whispered back and in the moment I felt my heart skip a beat. "Inform the doctor about her condition, we need to start making moves to help her and her baby!"At this point I was having a mental breakdown, what on earth was going on? Was the only question I could ask myself. Hadn't the doctor said that my pregnancy would require an operation? Then why on earth were these people making things a lot more wors

Conrad The past week had been a little better than the rest, but I wasn't fully happy. I and Rachel had gotten considerably close throughout the past week, and I couldn't help but notice the increase in my work output and social life. Ever since I had met her, things had been going so good for me and I was beginning to regret not meeting her earlier. It was not exactly a right thought though. I had always thought that love was not for me, especially after everything with Clara played out, what I thought was first love. Then Katherine, true love? I was laughing out loud. Bad things always seemed to happen around me or those that I considered to love. Even though I was happy with the recent developments between me and Rachel, the fact that I was bringing myself to develop feelings for her, I sort of felt awkward about myself. I did not feel like I was good for her, she seemed too good and kind, and from my love experiences, I always pushed those close to me away. I did not want to lov

Katherine“No pointy objects in the living room please. And you don't spill anymore liquids." I said to both the decorator and the maid who had made a mess earlier. There was a baby in the house and I couldn't risk anything happening to my child. I could slip on the liquid or be pricked by any sharp objects which could cause me to lose my balance and.... I paused, I should not be making such negative assumptions. But nonetheless, I still wanted things the way I had said them. It has been two weeks and counting since I put to bed. The first seven days was used up on my healing process which was enhanced by my wolf. Though I spent half of the first week in the hospital under medical care, it was still one of the best weeks of my life. I was never lonely, the nurses were super nice, and Aiden and Andrea always visited to keep me company. And that was not all. The best thing out of all this was the fact that I had my baby by my side all the time. Speaking of my child, I and Conrad’s ch

Katherine.It was a sunny Tuesday, and as usual, everywhere was quiet aside from my room. The giggles of baby Liam were like musical notes to my ear, seeing him smile was more than enough to keep me going throughout the entire day. As much as I would have loved to continue playing with him all day long, it was time for his feeding, and after that I will put him down to sleep. I had already pumped milk into his feeding bottle earlier and had preserved it at the perfect temperature. All I needed to do was to get Liam ready for feeding. I lifted him from the bed and positioned him towards my right side, then gently I supported his head, before guiding him towards the nozzle. Unlike the other babies, Liam was not a crybaby and I really enjoyed the peaceful environment that mere feature provided. Once I was done with feeding him, I burped him before laying him down to rest. After all the mother's work, I also deserved some rest myself. After a brief shower I returned to my bed to sleep,

Conrad.The door to the study room where I was seated pushed open, and I dropped the file in my hand on the table before shifting y eyes to the door to see Rachael walking in carrying a tray of coffee -I assume. It has been five months since I started living with Rachael and with each passing day, I find myself learning things about her, things I never imagined myself learning, things I never knew when I learned. And, among the things I have learned, I learned coffee was her favorite drink.“You’re not sleeping?” It was more of a statement than a question. She placed the tray on the table and sat before me, I leaned into my seat and crossed my leg at the ankle.“I am not feeling sleepy,” she replied with a small smile, “warm milk?” I nodded, she added the milk to my cup and placed it before me.“And what is keeping you up, if I may ask?” She shrugged as she brought her cup to her lips and took a sip.“Nothing in particular, sleep just eluded me this night and I just thought to come t

Katherine.The news was shocking, if it hadn't been from a trusted source, I would have doubted the authenticity of the news. Clara, the same Clara that was responsible for me and Conrad's divorce. Even though I had no reason to, I felt awful for Clara's kidnap, nobody -good or bad - is supposed to experience such. But, I thought, who would want Clara, and for what offense, Clara wasn't really the best person but, she wasn't so bad that someone would want her kidnapped.Perhaps she crossed someone deadly, perhaps someone wanted to exact revenge on her pack, her father was an Alpha after all and what other best way was there to get to her father than through her, perhaps, Clara got worse over the years. “Here he is, bathed and fresh for the new day,” the nanny said as she stepped into the sitting room and distracted me from my thoughts. I wiped the lines of worry off my face, turned my face away from the television, and received the baby with a smile. “Ah.” He giggled as the nanny ha

Conrad.The rumors were absurd, the accusations, meaningless and blatant lies. I had a history with Clara and I still resent her for her lies and betrayal, but I meant it when I swore never to have anything to do with her again. Nothing, even kidnapping her.Clara lied to me, but, that was not enough reason for me to kidnap her. It's been months since the incident. Even if I wanted her kidnapped, wouldn't I have done that when the anger was still fresh and heavy in my heart?Sighing, I turned off my phone and placed it on the table. Tired of reading the same false rumor about me constructed in different sentences. I was in every article on every news channel in the city and beyond, it was physically and mentally exhausting being dragged on the internet for such accusations. Some of our investors withdrew stating that they could not work with a person like me and those who didn't withdraw, threatened to if the case didn't get sorted out before the end of the week. Before the rumor, I u

~Katherine.“This cannot be true, Dad, it is not true.” I bit the inside of my cheek and hoped that he was going to tell me otherwise, that he would laugh and tell me that he created the post to scare me, but then, Dad was not a digital guru, so I prayed he would have a better explanation to what I was seeing.“It is not true?” Dad repeated with a raised brow and took the phone from my hand to flash it at my face, “If it isn’t true then, what is this? Why has this news been published in every local news channel and beyond?”“Because they would do anything for money.” I croaked, “these people would publish anything they deem news worth, whether the news is right or false. Conrad is not a kidnapper, let alone a killer.”He wasn’t any of those, right? I asked myself. The news about Clara’s dead had spread out like wildfire, and although I knew Conrad was a lot of things, I would never picture him a killer, or maybe he was, maybe, the man I married hid a beast under his skin, maybe, he wa

KatherineIt was autumn, my best season of the year. I liked autumn because it signified transitions and new beginnings which was exactly what had happened to me.The mix of warm and cool colors and leaves on trees changing from green to vibrant shades of red, yellow, and orange, creating a picturesque landscape was just beautiful. These leaves eventually fall to the ground, creating a crisp, rustling sound as they brush against one another in the wind.The cool autumn air often accompanied by strong and gusty winds blows the leaves around. The air was always full of the smell of burning wood, cinnamon, and pumpkin spice emanating from households as families light up fires and bake delicious treats to warm up.It was all perfect as was my life now.I was sitted on the couch in my sitting room taking in the contents of the news that I could understand while reflecting on my life."Ricardo."I caught a glimpse of the name on the television screen and my mind wandered to all that happen

Conrad'"Keep them both detained," I barked at one of the warriors. I couldn't afford letting Andrea and Ricardo's girlfriend slip out of my grasp. Thankfully, my warriors had come on time to save me from getting shot by Andrea, but they might not always be available and it seemed to me that he was like a beast that could attack at anytime. They were chained but there was no telling what they could have up their sleeves.I turned back to tend to Ricardo's body lying half dead on the floor. He had been shot in the chest.Before we left the field where everything had happened, Katherine had somehow managed to notice that Ricardo was still breathing though it was with so much trouble. We managed to get him back to the pack mansion to see if there was a way that we could save him, and though I feared that the chances were slim, I could not just put it to Katherine like that. It was definitely going to hurt her so much. And just as I went on with my thought process, her voice interrupt

Katherine.It made no sense, all that Rachael was saying. I had just met her yesterday without a proper introduction even and suddenly, she had been planning on destroying my life and ruining my marriage.I turned to Riccardo, hoping that one of us would make sense of what Rachael was saying, but his eyes were on his girlfriend, obviously disappointed by her actions. I could feel the rage surging through his veins, and I reached for his hand and squeezed it lightly. I was disappointed and angry too, but I needed my child alive. “Quit the drama, Rachael, and hand my child over to me. It's obvious you don't know me, I can understand you are angry that Conrad and I are back together but, you don't know me, so please, hand me back my child. How can you all of a sudden be the one who has been trying to kill me when I don't know you.”“Argh!” She yelled out in frustration as she dumped my child into Ricardo's girlfriend's hands, “That right there is what you do that makes me mad, I attack y

Katherine.A feeling of nostalgia hit my stomach as we pulled up in front of Conrad’s house, a place that was once mine, too. I had only been away for a year, yet it felt as though it had been an eternity. Blowing out a rush of air, I turned to look at Conrad to meet his eyes on mine.“You are nervous,” he said with certainty in his voice and I nodded, “don’t be, please. You don’t have any reasons to.” I nodded again as he took my hand to give it a light squeeze.“Okay,” I said in response to the look he was giving me. Reaching for the back seat, he grabbed the baby carrier and stepped out of the car while hurrying to my side to help me out.I bit the inside of my cheek to keep my nerves down, yet my stomach churned as we stepped into the front porch. With the glass of wine left on the table there, I figured Conrad's mom was around, and those pair of critic's eyes were the first thing I met as we stepped into the house.“Katherine?” Her eyes were narrowed in surprise. She dropped the

ConradI was on the road like a maniac, according to Ricardo, Katherine was somewhat being held hostage at home and he wanted me to assist in breaking her out. I understood perfectly well what he meant, and I was rushing over there to carry out what was required of me. I wasn't doing this because of some sort of feelings attached, Katherine had saved me moments ago, it was only natural that I paid her back what I owed. My mother Lina was against my coming here, but there was no way I was letting someone who had saved me moments ago just get killed or harassed. She probably feared that me getting friendly with Katherine was going to trigger some sort of feelings in me, but after assuring her that my loyalty laid with Rachel, she allowed me to leave.The car came to a halt in front of the Patterson mansion, and without hesitation I stormed into into the place. On my way I had knocked down some few guards who dared to oppose me, but I did well not to kill them. In fact I was done with t

KatherineI stood in awe at the scene before me while trying to digest everything I had just witnessed. Frank was dead, and to be killed by Conrad? It was definitely a twist I hadn't expected. Nothing was ever as it seemed, I thought Clara was evil and all, but now I was convinced that monsters existed, and for some reason I felt like there was a greater evil lying in wait for the perfect time. I had no idea what to do at this point. Should I console Conrad or take my leave? Leaving when Conrad was at verge of breaking down emotionally was definitely a bad idea. He had just lost his best friend, there was no way I could just straight up leave without saying some words of comforts to him at least."I'm sorry things turned out this way. I never expected this to happen." "It's okay, you did the right thing, everything is my fault. Thank you for the help." Conrad replied. I was honestly surprised he was even able to speak in such a state, he was definitely stronger than I had imagined.

ConradI sat quietly before the council, and so did the other attendants of this meeting. Ever since Clara's murder I hadn't gotten a whiff of anything good. Things were spiraling out of control with every passing minute, and now here I was seated before the wolf council, waiting to be tried for a murder I didn't commit.Clara's father was present, as well as Lina and Rachel alongside Frank. The anxiety was clear on everybody's face, aside from Frank who has been awfully neutral about this entire case. "So tell me Mr Alaric, what evidence do you have to back up your claims of innocence? Do you have an alibi that can confirm your location at the time of Clara's kidnap and murder?"I didn't have anyone who I could say was my alibi, whoever that was framing me had done the job almost perfectly, I had no arguments to throw out as a claim of my innocence except saying it. "Do you really have to ask if that Monster did it?! The evidence is clear, he murdered my daughter and he should be pu

Katherine.The compound was bustling with people who were coming in to drop off the things that Dad, Andrea and Theresa had ordered for the wedding…my wedding and from my window with which I had been looking down from for the past few days, I admired the workers, at least, they were really working hard toward the wedding and not unenthusiastic as I was.My eyes followed the two men who had brought flowers as they walked back to their car and started the engines to leave. I was waiting for something to happen and just as I expected, the guards by the gate stopped then to thoroughly search their car. “Oh come on,” I groaned with a sigh as I backed away from the window. The security around the house had grown too tight since the first day Theresa came, and I wondered if Dad had read my thoughts and seen my desire to run away or if it was Andrea who was trying all he could to see I married him.Given the now tight security, my desire to run seemed near-impossible but, I needed to leave t

Conrad.The person staring back at me in the mirror was not me, he may look like me but, he certainly wasn't me, he was the shadow of my old self, but I did like him. I appreciate the way he mocked me, his eyes, they mocked me and I appreciate it, his mocking glare was the only thing that kept me sane. It was the only thing that reminded me that I was not supposed to break.'You are an Alpha, Conrad, you have a pack to lead,' that was what he said to me.The door to my room came open and from the corner of my eyes, I saw Rachael walk in, she was the other thing that kept me sane. Her reassuring words and her pleasant smiles had been of great help these past few days.“Leaving for work already?” She asked as she went to occupy the couch that was positioned next to the dressing table.Running my fingers through my hair, I turned my body to her before slowly tearing my eyes away from the mirror, "yeah, I think it's time I went back to the office, I have lots of things to do at the office
