Stephanie's POVSince I couldn't go anywhere, I stood in front of his tent trying to peep inside. I still have a few days to stay here until the fog clears and I wasn't ready to cross Davies all over again.For a while, I was confused and a little frustrated. As much as he had gotten angry with me on a few occasions, this was different. I have truly gotten on his nerves this time around.I don't know what to do to pacify him or even trip off the guilt inside me. Darting my eyes around, I bit my lower lip nervously while pacing in front of his tent.With calculated faltered steps, I absentmindedly bite my nails before clasping my hands together."You've finally succeeded in getting him angry. What are you going to do now?" Laila questioned, her voice sounding accusatory to me.“ Are you his wolf or mine? Why do you keep switching between hot and cold?" I questioned, venting my frustration at her.Even though I was nervous I was still angry at her. As if she also wasn't scared when sh
Stephanie's POV “ Yes. It isn't magic, like you want to believe," he said, firmly. Even though I doubted him, I didn't want to argue with him. I nodded my head but did not say a word, I was scared of talking. "Hey, tell me what to do," I called Laila." I'm thinking," she said.We sat there and none of us said a word for a while which was getting me more nervous. I had apologised but he didn't acknowledge it. Was he planning to be mad at me till we go our separate ways? That thought got my heart beating fast.Davies stood up from the bed and turned his back to me and staring at me was a big tattoo on his back.It was a tattoo of a large dragon with the scariest blue eyes. That dragon looked so real and vicious and I wondered why he would draw such a tattoo on his back. But something wasn't right. I had seen him naked in the water but I didn't notice any tattoo on his back. Did he in
Stephanie's POV I listened with rapt attention as he talked about his people, at least he was talking to me and I was glad. But then something was off. Why was he talking as if he's some sort of royalty? "So will you continue your tour after now?" I asked.It's obvious that such a powerful man was moving around, he must definitely be looking for something. I was really sure about that. "No," he shook his head. "After getting you settled down in a new pack, I will return to mine and settle there with my people. I've had enough of the tour. My people need me," he replied. After hearing him say those things, I became anxious and wanted to know more about him and his people. "Your parents will be happy to see you back to them," I said smiling.That was my assumption and a scope to ask about his parents because I don't think he would be in a good relationship with his parents and he would be having a tour for years. They must have been very sad. He hissed and stared at me with those
Stephanie's POV She took a chair and sat in front of me. "Why do you want my life? At least tell me the reason and if you have a good reason I might give it to you," I said boldly.I didn't even know where my boldness was coming from. “I do not beg for anything. I take it when I want to," she shouted and grabbed my hair.She pulled it so hard that I thought they were going to pull out of my skull. I tried not to cry out from the pain. She stopped pulling and slapped me so hard and the rings on her fingers tore through my skin and I groaned in pain.As blood dripped from my face, she looked at me as if she was shocked and then she moved close to me with a sad face.“Hey sweetie pie, I didn't mean to hurt you,” she said with true remorse on her face.I was in a confused situation. Where did this woman come from and why was she acting like someone who has mental issues. “Don't get me angry again and you would be able to go home but…”She paused and I was anxious. Will she truly let m
Davies' POVAlthough the way she looked at me hurt me so much, after thinking about it, I still blamed myself for everything. I was only trying to please her when I took her to see flowers. I thought that was going to liven her mood.Well, she wasn't used to people who perform so much magic. I didn't even know what came over me. I barely used my magic because I was far stronger than it but it seems like when it comes to Stephanie I just want to show her everything I've got.When I saw those rogues coming, I could have possibly teleported to avoid them but I had forgotten how scared the woman with me was of magic. All I wanted to do was to make those rogues pay.I never liked rogue wolves because anywhere they go, all they do is cause destruction. This particular rogue group, I have been trying to eradicate them for a while now. I had thought beating the hell out of them was going to at least teach them a lesson but then they seemed stronger t
Davies's POVI was also a little confused on the paternity of the child but I wasn't going to let him claim it either.“ Steph…?” I called out in a hush.All Stephanie had to do was to tell me to get rid of that idiot in front of me and I would throw him and his men away like stone. I looked at her and she was still standing there looking shocked."Stephanie, I know I hurt you but I'm sorry. I've been searching for you since the day you left. I didn't even know that you were carrying my baby. Steph, I'm really sorry. Please come back home with me," the dumbass pleaded.I stared at Stephanie who seemed shocked at whatever the dumbass was saying. He was truly a dumbass. Why would he make such statement to the woman he rejected?Didn't he know that it means he wouldn't have come back for her if she wasn't pregnant? He was damn professing that she meant nothing to him without the baby!I wonder what decision Stephanie was going to take. Alas, I need not worry anymore as a glance towards S
Stephanie's POVWaking up from such a terrible dream and also seeing Davies staring at me was a red flag. I should have known that being with him would claim my life. I didn't want to tell him about my dream so I stayed there mute. Just then he left because one of his men called him. That was when I realized that it was morning. My body was soaked in sweat and I was still having the aftermath of the nightmare. I touched my stomach as if to feel if my child was still there. The dream looks so real that it scared the hell out of me.I was very sure that the woman was talking about Davies. He was the only dangerous one around me and I was glad that we would be going our separate ways by nightfall. Soon I started to hear an argument outside the tent. I wondered who had come again to waste their lives by confronting Davies. The voice became more vivid and it sounded so familiar. So I decided to go take a look and maybe I could save whoever that person was from death.Just as I got out
Alpha Gregory's POVIt was so hard for me to bring that woman back. I knew that Ava wouldn't be happy with this being that I had promised to marry her but then I needed an offspring. As an Alpha I needed someone who would take over my duty and all the things I've worked hard for.I was very glad when I was told that that woman I mistakenly slept with was pregnant at least that would fasten the process. Once she gives birth to the pup in her I can send her back to the hole she crawled out from.But there was something very strange. When I went to pick her up, she was with some men. Why would a woman be camping with three men? In fact they were strange men because I couldn't catch their smell. But the one that growled was definitely someone powerful. I could feel the extent of his powers surging out from his growl.As I realized that the woman carrying my child was with three men, I got angry and anxious. Did she sleep with any of those men with my
Davies's POV With my hands tucked inside my pockets, I fixed my gaze on the flickering flames of the fireplace in my study. The room was warm, yet I felt cold. It wouldn't be long before I become completely frozen. Instead of going to meet Gregory in his pack, I had invited him over so we could plan on how to take down the seekers once and for all. It took us several hours but still, we have been unable to come up with something solid. Just when it seemed like we were getting a breakthrough, there would be an obstacle or a loophole that would leave us with no choice but to start all over again. The truth was, there was no perfect plan but of course, there was one which could be regarded as almost perfect. Infiltrating the seekers' hideout was the plan and unlike the last time when I was the only one who needed to be rescued, three delicate lives were on the line. And we intend to save them all.
Davies's POV It was getting more messy. Gregory was losing his head and as if that was not enough, he had resumed blaming me for being behind Stephanie's and the kid's abduction. Clasping my hands, I leaned against the window pane, allowing my eyes to travel the distance as different thoughts swirled around my head.It had been confirmed that the seekers had them but no matter how much I tried, I just couldn't locate their hiding place. Just when I was about to go berserk and kick things into the air, an idea struck and it sounded like the breakthrough I wanted. Instead of staying in the shadows and searching for the seekers current location, I will put myself out there so they will know what I was up to. My plan clicked and in less than twenty four hours, I was invited by the head of the seekers.Without wasting time, I embarked on the journey and on arrival since I was being expected, I was led right int
Alpha Gregory's POV With each passing day, the hope of seeing Stephanie and the kids was getting thinner but I wasn't going to give up until I found them. Most times, I couldn't help but blame myself for getting involved with Davies. If only I hadn't agreed to her request of going to rescue him when he was at the seekers' lair, this wouldn’t have happened. My family is going to remain intact and we will have nothing to worry about. A few minutes ago, Frank had stepped out to meet with Davies who had just arrived at the pack house. I had intentionally refused to meet with him because I didn't trust myself.Each time I saw him, I would become furious since I considered him the architect of my woes but I never said that to him directly. Falling back on the couch, I tossed my head backwards, allowing a low wince to escape from my lips. I hope you’re fine, hang on, I will come and get you very soon, I promise. – I thought, my heart constricting against my chest. The scenario I was g
Davies's POVTitling my head to the side, a low wince escaped from my lips.Just when I thought things had returned to normalcy, they struck again but their target this time was Stephanie and her kids.I felt guilty for pulling Stephanie into the mess I had created.Before I could open my mouth to speak, my decision had been made, “I’m coming.”“Thank you." Gregory said, patting my back while I just nodded.He didn't need to thank me. I was the one who created the mess so it was only right for me to clean up.“We are going to find Stephanie and the kids." I said, my hand resting on my chest to show I was being sincere with my words.To save them, I was willing to do whatever it takes even if I had to put my life on the line to make it happen.
Davies's POVIt had been two weeks since Alpha Gregory rescued me from the hands of the seekers and I had recovered fully.Looking back, I could only imagine what the seekers would have done to me if not for his timely intervention I was immensely grateful for.Life had returned to normalcy.I no longer spent my day constantly looking over my shoulders and wondering what next the seekers were up to.Walking up to the window in my study, I allowed my eyes to linger on the lush vegetation that went on for miles as I thought of only one person.Stephanie.I had tried all I could to forget about her after the warning I received from Gregory's beta but it was to no avail.Each time, I found myself thinking about her, where she was and if she was thinking about me too.
Davies’s POVIt had been five days since I told Stephanie about my predicament, yet she hadn't shown up.The only thing I was holding onto was her promise of coming to save me but it seems that wasn't going to happen anytime soon. My grip on her promise was getting weak. I might as well discard it and resign to my fate as no one was coming to help.And just when I thought the Seekers were going to have an upper hand over me, Gregory and his men arrived at the dungeon. Earlier, I had sensed a different energy saturating the atmosphere and what I thought was a greater force working with the seekers was here to torment me.But it turned out to be Alpha Gregory and his men. In my life, I have never been relieved to see someone and so it was a new experience for me entirely. The moment Gregory and his men invaded the dungeon that was securely guarded by the Seekers', everything changed. The battle between them was fierce. Just as the Seekers were powerful, so were Gregory and his men
Alpha Gregory's POV The promise I made to Stephanie kept ringing in my head as I made my way towards my study. “I can't believe I actually agreed to save the one man who is a threat to my happiness with Stephanie." I muttered, plopping on my chair with a huff. Shutting my eyes tightly, I snapped it open as my heart clenched tightly against my chest. Is she finally showing her true self now? — I pondered, tilting my head to the side as I played and replayed her request in my head. Asking me to help Davies even when she isn't with him… maybe the pack members were right that she isn't loyal to us. Pushing my hand into my hair, I tugged on it for a while. At the moment, I was in an emotional turmoil that was threatening to make me lose my mind. Why would she put me up to that task?Truly, she never got over Davies yet. She was still in communication with him. “I should have known." I mumbled. “Know what?" Frank asked and immediately, I snapped my head upwards. I had no idea he
Stephanie's POV Stunned, I couldn't help but keep staring into space for as long as I could remember. I could hear Davies clearly. It was as if we were having a face to face conversation. Warmed with this discovery, my eyes watered. “Davies, are you there?" I asked when he didn't speak after a while.“Uhm." He sounded like a dying man which made me start panicking as I wondered what the issue was. Leaning forward, I murmured, “Tell me, are you alright?" My heart was beating rapidly against my chest making it seem like it was going to burst in any second. “The seekers. I have been at their mercy for almost a month now." Alarmed, I gulped. Holding my breath, I listened attentively to his tale about the seekers' torment and this made tears welled up in my eyes. If only I was there with him, this wouldn't have happened. — I couldn't help but to blame myself for his current situation.
Davies’s POVThere he is.For the rest of my life, I can never forget the face of the father who was behind the death of my mother even though I was diagnosed with amnesia. His face haunted me each time I remembered it.“You…” I yelled, trying to get off the constraints that were holding me back but it was to no avail. Thrashing about didn't help either and making me even more enraged, he was smirking. "Long time no see Davies.” He mouthed, walking further in my direction, the smirk on his face still stamped on it. "How dare you show your face here after what you have done?” I yelled at him. "I will never forgive you even if you ask all the elements to beg on your behalf.” I yelled again. The sickening aura in the room made me recoil but my gaze was still fixated on the man I had sworn not to forget in my life. He should be dead considering what had happened that day.Why in heaven's name
