Stephanie 's POV
I should have known that Ava had a very big plan when she told me to sell the clothes. Gregory was very furious seeing me in those rags. If I had known that he had returned with guests, I would have refused to come out no matter what Ava does to me later.Now Gregory wouldn't believe me when I said that Ava was the one who made me sell those clothes. In fact he kept hitting me while she was playing all innocent."I'm not lying please," I cried out.The pain was too much for me to bear. They had returned me back to the pack just to make me suffer."If you are not lying, what do I want to use the money for? I have enough money to spend if I need one. Moreover, was I also the one that stacked the cash in your wardrobe, " she said bluntly.I looked at her sternly."You think I don't know that the cash is in your wardrobe? I saw it there and I thought you were going to open up to me but now I'm so disappointed. I didn't expect that you woulGregory 's POVI got home to meet the shock of my life.I was happy that Ava wasn't treating Stephanie badly and I was also grateful to her knowing that Stephanie had taken what was supposed to be hers.. They were both acting like sisters. It was when I got closer to Stephanie that I knew that she was quite intelligent and fun to be with. She was also happy when I left but I didn't know why things turned around. My business trip went smoothly even though I had spent longer than I expected, only for me to get home and Stephanie decided to show her real colour. Of all that she did, the plan to escape was the most annoying. I had treated her well and she was still communicating with that boyfriend of hers. I knew something was fishy between them when they came out of the same tent.Now I was even beginning to doubt if that baby in her stomach belongs to me. I must do a DNA test before I take what doesn't belong to me.I was angry and yet she wasn't ac
STEPHANIE It wasn't surprising that Alpha Gregory would believe Ava's fake attitude, after all, I also fell for it. The painful part was that he even punished me extremely with his child in my stomach.How vile could he be? I have been in the place he tied me up for a while now. I slowly opened my eyes to see Alpha Gregory's beta walking into the room. My heart began to beat fast, and I tried to sit up amidst the tightening of my wrist. I wondered why he was here. Was it to torture me or what? “ Don't move!" He commanded as a flicker of pity displayed on his face before disappearing. He walked up to me and slowly loosened the ropes that were used to tie me up. I stared at him with my eyes wide. I wondered why he was taking the ropes out. Wasn't he under the order of Alpha Gregory? "What are you doing?" I asked him. He didn't respond. He just continued taking out the ropes until he was done. After taking o
Stephanie PovI stood at the entrance of the gate, my heart beating uncontrollably at the enormous sight. It was a place I never dreamt I could come to but an unexpected call brought me to the gate of our Alpha.Alpha Gregory, a monster feared by all. I grasped tightly at my bag, wishing I had refused the offer but then I had no choice. There were bills to pay. The gate was slowly opened and a burly guard that looked more like an assassin beckoned to me. I walked briskly toward him and told him the reason I was there.The burly guard insisted I wait so they could confirm if truly I was asked to come to the palace as the children tutor by the beta's wife. I waited for almost ten minutes before one of the guards, who seemed like their head, signaled his hands, telling his colleagues to let me in. "Hurry up!" The burly guard yelled when I started to take slow strides into the pack house. It was as if I was entering into a furnace of fire. The same way I was excited was the same way
Alpha Gregory's Pov"Alpha, the beta sent words that they are already at the border”I raised my head with a scowl. This wasn't the time for inspection. I was trying to control myself for the past hour and now it can't get worse!I could feel the fear and dread in his voice as he walked into my chamber with his head bowed deeply. I turned around to face him. They always shiver at my presence, not that I give a damn but today I was getting irritated.I needed to see Ava. That old fool could have told me the potion works very fast. I could have called her over earlier. "Get me the Luna. Tell her I need to see her this minute," I ordered, wanting Ava as soon as possible. I was finding it difficult to control my emotions. "Yes, Alpha," he pronounced and turned to leave.I hurried to my chamber, my body getting hotter with each passing second. Tonight was my only chance to make the pack accept her as my chosen mate.“ Where are you, Ava?" I muttered, pulling off my tie.I roamed around t
Stephanie’s Pov I stared dumbfounded at him, his voice booming through the room as hatred brimmed inside. Didn't he feel the mate bond just like I did? I can't believe I slept with him without thinking. But he was my mate, right? Tears rolled down my cheeks in pain. Tears of being innocent and as well guilty of my action. What if I didn't accept to come to the pack house? Would everything have been different? "What the hell were you looking for in the Alpha's chamber?!" An angry feminine voice rang into my ear in rage.I didn't need to look up before guessing who it might be. She must be the Alpha's renowned substitute Luna, Ava. I felt broken and hurt, once more. I watched as my so-called mate went to her side, ignoring me while his mistress lashed out at me. "Speak up, you whore!" She added and the guard that was beside me gripped me by my hair, raising my head to look at the raging faces in front of me. I watched him looking at me with disgust. His powerful aura sweeping all
Stephanie POV I needed to look for a way out so I started running through the woods, unable to tell my actual direction. Though hoping to see a pack soon.It was not too long when I heard the terrifying growl accompanied by a unique scent. Instantly, I came to an abrupt end. I roamed my eyes around the woods to see if anyone was following but no one in sight.I paused again because my legs couldn't just move any longer. It was as if I was craving danger if I took more steps. I let out a heavy breath as I turned around and began to trace the scent which became thicker until I finally found where it was coming from. It was from a cave nearby. I moved stealthily inside until I got to an empty space where someone was groaning. It was a man with a powerful aura, even more than Alpha Gregory. I wanted to leave but then that same scent hit me and I couldn't stop myself from drawing closer to the strange man.“ Are you alright, mister?" I asked, trying to figure out his face.“ Help me… I
Davie's Pov Her skin was flawless and even when her eyes were shut closed, her beauty was overboards. Her eyelashes and pointed nose made my wolf dangle, her lips were more alluring and I almost leaned down to kiss her. I have never seen anyone as beautiful as her. Her beauty made my heart melt and it moved me in a way that was hard to explain that she was a wolf. Her beauty radiated like that of a mermaid. But then, she was a werewolf, a species different from mine and it made it difficult for me to believe I was mated to her. I couldn't hold myself back from pulling her into a hug and I did. Her soft skin melted to my bare core and a soft groan came out of me. How could we have this huge connection? We were mated but it was as if meeting her was adding something I've long lost inside of me. She completes me, especially after the steaming night together. I waited patiently for her to wake up. She was an Omega, I could sense it and there was one thing I still didn't want to
Stephanie POVI woke up with a start, the lingering scent of the man of last night hitting me hard. It was a rather peculiar scent, not the usual werewolf kind of scent.The face of my strange mate was the first thing I saw. Who exactly has the moon goddess mated me with this time around? Can I really trust this strange man? I would have trusted him because he was my mate but then my last mate hurt me badly. This made me know that mates can't be trusted. Moreover I didn't know who he was. His scent was too strange to be a werewolf. Not until he told me who he was.A Lycan. That wasn't the only thing he told me. I was quite taken aback when he mentioned I was pregnant. It was just barely five days since I slept with both my mates.How could I be pregnant?In anger I told him off because I was getting fed up. I was fucking pregnant without knowing who actually got me pregnant. But then it was likely Alpha Gregory, right?I tried to stand up and start to leave. Although I didn't know

Ava's POVThe next morning I also took Stephanie to breakfast. The way she was looking at me showed that she was very confused. We were having lunch when Gregory called me and said that he was coming with some friends. I was so happy because I was going to see him and also because my plan would be very interesting.I didn't tell Stephanie that Gregory was on his way home. I just told the kitchen that the Alpha was coming back with friends. Everyone started to put things in order because they knew Gregory cared much about his dignity and appearance.I loved Stephanie in that she didn't know all that was happening. I wanted her to be shocked to see Gregory .And soon Gregory returned with his friend. Gregory had done something that hurt me, he didn't introduce his friends as his Luna and also he kept asking for Stephanie ."Should I bring Stephanie to have lunch with us?" I asked him.Gregory shook his head. " Who would I say she is? " He said.I
Ava's POVAlthough I miss Gregory so much I was still happy that he didn't return home as early as he had thought. It gave me enough time to torture that girl and also let Gregory think she was bad."Honey, when will you return, I think Stephanie misses you so much," I said to him." I'll be home soon, I need to settle business here before I can return, " he said to me.I was angry that he didn't talk against me saying that Stephanie missed him. I only said that so as to know if he had any feelings for her. I've been angry at Gregory lately because he's been getting closer to that girl. That wasn't supposed to be the plot. He was supposed to always counter whatever I told him to do for the girl but he was accepting all and that's what was getting me vexed. I couldn't take out my anger on Gregory but I could take it out on that b*tchGregory had said he wasn't able to reach Stephanie and I told him I don't know why. I angrily went into Stephanie's room and
Stephanie 's POV If I had stayed with Davies, he would have taken me to a pack where I would be living without anyone torturing me but I had thought coming here was good for the child.Even if Davies came to rescue me, I would be too ashamed to go with him. He definitely would have seen me as a woman who was indecisive. A woman who doesn't think before she acts but then I thought about it well. I was just too foolish to notice the red flag.When Ava was excessively kind, I should have known that it was almost a pretence. I was stupidly thinking someone like her could exist. "Ma'am, why don't we just get rid of her pregnancy? We can just say she miscarried it," I heard Ava's maid say.That girl was just nothing but an embodiment of evil. I didn't know what I had done to wrong her in this life. I might even understand Ava's pain and jealousy but that maid, all these whole issues, had nothing to do with her. I glared at her as she said that."What? Are y
Stephanie's POVWas she actually kidding me? She wanted me to mop the floor when it's raining heavily. That was pure wickedness. I was so shocked at what she gave me to do. I wouldn't have held a grudge if she had given me real chores because I had done many minimal jobs to earn a living. But mopping the floor when it was raining so heavily was pure punishment. How did she expect the floor to dry?"But it is raining," I said to her.If she didn't know that it was raining, I tried to remind her but I regretted. The next second, I had a resounding slap on my left ear and it affected my right, even to my brain. It was as if I lost the ability to hear and pain ran into my brain. I held my ear in pain and tears streamed down my face. "How dare you question me! Did I tell you I'm blind and don't know it's raining ? That's the job I want to give you, so do your job before I kick that thing out of your stomach!" She growled.I still didn't get the reason why she was doing this to me because
Stephanie POVI nodded at her. If she had shown me her true color from the first day we met, I might not be having this trauma. I knelt down there thinking what might go wrong. Last night we were still eating together like good friends. Why did she turn into an enemy all of a sudden?As I was battling internally with my thoughts, I felt a sharp pain all through my body and I screamed in agony. "If I'm talking to you, you open your mouth to talk. Can you hear me?"" Yes yes yes" I cried out in pain." Yes what? " She blurted out."Yes Luna!" I said. " Fine," she smiled with satisfaction. This was another side of Ava that I saw but then if she wasn't happy with me, why did she have to pretend that she was and even made me think I've found a friend like a sister. "Please tell me what I've done wrong to make you change all of a sudden. The Ava... Luna I know was patient with me and took care of me. Please, what did I do wrong?" I pleaded in tears.My tears weren't from the whip but be
Stephanie's POV I woke up with a start from the dream I just had. It felt a bit off. The evil intruder in my dream seem to be familiar with me.The person's form was undisclosed and I began to wonder how powerful that person must be. The only powerful person I had been familiar with was none other than Davies.With sigh, I suddenly felt a pang of pain as my wolf howled in sadness inside of me. I tried to communicate with her but I just couldn't do it.It could only mean that she was hurting but how?Somehow, I felt that something was definitely amiss with these scary dreams. However, things turned around the next day that Alpha Gregory left the pack. It was a turn around that was too sudden and unexpected. I was sleeping peacefully in my room, expecting Ava to come when someone burst into the room. I woke up in fear wondering who it was."Get your stinky body out of that bed!" A female shouted.I looked at the one who talked to me rudely, it was Ava's personal maid. I was shocked at
