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
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
Gregory '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 's POVI 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 woul
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
