Kai's POV I was done arranging my bags but it felt so wrong returning to the pack without her. My eyes darted to the clock fixed on the wall for the umpteenth time, hoping that she would be here with me. She won't come. I wanted to banish the thought but then I realized that she wouldn't come, after all, she sent me out of her house the last time and hadn't called me till now. I wasn't sure I could move on yet but I had to return to my pack and immerse myself with royal duties. I picked up my phone and dialed Callan's phone. He picked up almost immediately with a cheerful voice and greeted me. "I'll be returning today," I informed him and silence followed. "Did you find her?" He asked, his voice less cheerful. "I have found her but she doesn't want me anymore and I won't force her to do something that is against her will," I said with a shrug though my heart was tearing into pieces. He sighed, understanding my pain. "I don't know why I feel this way, Alpha, but I belie
Kai's POV Banners were placed at the town's gate which made my smile broader. It had a picture of Corey and me which was quite surprising because I didn't tell him that we were back together, then I remembered that our minds were linked so he could tell from my joyful emotions. "This is so nice. It seems like your people have missed you a lot." Corey beamed with a smile and I noticed that she glowed differently. I could say the same for myself as I felt very hungry after a long time and I also wanted to bury myself inside of her. I kept dreaming about this day since she left and everything was happening just as I imagined. "I never expected such a reception, they must have missed you so much." Corey assumed and I nodded in agreement. Ever since I assumed the position of the Alpha of the Dark Moon pack, the people had grown to love me because of how well I cared for them. So they showed me respect in return and obeyed the laws of the land. "I feel like eating you up right no
Corey's POV My body still spiked with pleasure when I remembered how Kai loved my body last night. Our lovemaking was more intense than our first night at the club and I wouldn't be surprised if I got pregnant again. I was a bit subdued as we went on several rounds without getting tired and this morning he informed me that I would be crowned as his Luna, the same position that belonged to Tracey. I didn't know what it entailed to be a Luna or the Alpha queen but I was sure that with Kai's guidance, I'd do well. He returned to the bedroom with Blake in his arms. He was smiling and imitating Blake's barfs. My heart swelled with love and joy at the sight as everything still felt like a dream. I'd been denying myself of this for a long time but thanks to the moon goddess and our loved ones we both came to our senses. "What got you thinking?" He enquired and sank on the bed, causing it to dip at his weight. "I'm just realising how blessed I am to have the people I love so much a
Corey's POV."I'm really sorry Corey but I have to let you go." My boss said softly. I just stood there staring at him as if I had not heard him. I knew that my little mistake had cost them dearly but I wasn't expecting them to fire me, at least not yet."But... But..." I stuttered, trying to find the right words to express just how I felt. "We can fix this, all I have to do is....." I opened the folder in front of me, flipping through the pages in search of the proposal I had spent the whole night drafting. "See... Here we could..." He shook his head sadly as he relaxed back into his seat."It's too late for all that now. You can leave your ID card here and submit whatever is left to your team leader.""You can't do this Sir! Please let me fix this. I really need this Job. My wedding is a week from now, I can't afford to lose my job." I pleaded on the verge of breaking down into tears."I can't help you Corey, your mistake caused us an exclusive contract, and the director is so upset
Kai's POV."I'm sorry Mr. MacLeod but the test results are out and she is not pregnant." The doctor said sympathetically. I felt a sharp pain as I let out a deep breath. "Maybe you could try with..." I raised my hand sharply, cutting him off. I knew exactly what he wanted to say and didn't want to hear it.Tracey sighed deeply beside me as the doctor patted her hand gently. We have been going through this same scenario for months now, running all kinds of tests and everything but at the end of the day, it turned out negative. She had said she has been feeling nauseous lately and we had visited the doctor and agreed to run some tests with hope. "It's alright... I am fine." Tracey said with a shaky voice. She turned around to look at me, holding my gaze. I could feel her pain. I knew she felt guilty about our whole situation, and that is why it was so difficult for her to look into my eyes knowing that we have been let down. For some reason, every single time we went through this, the
Corey's POV.It's been weeks since the incident with the stranger at the pub. I cashed out all my savings and paid for a crappy apartment that one of my friends had managed to help me find. I spent the rest of my days searching for a job, I needed to get back on my feet. True to his words, Ryan called off the wedding and after I snuck out of the stranger's bed, I returned to find my things on the front porch and he had changed the locks. I moved out quietly, I didn't want to embarrass myself further. So for the past few days, I had been carrying about the scar from that day, putting on a smile as if nothing had happened but deep down I was burning with rage and deep pain from the scar of my boyfriend and best friend about to get wedded.I felt sad that the future I had imagined for myself had been shattered in an instant. I didn't know what the future held for me anymore, but I knew that I would never let anyone take advantage of me again. So I stuck to myself, avoiding men and avoid
Kai's POVDays passed by as everything went on normally. I made sure that Tracey never felt the bitter pang of her barrenness even though she allowed it to overwhelm her sometimes; just as it was happening now. I looked over my shoulder, taking my eyes off the book I was reading to watch her attractive face. It was one thing I could never get tired of doing; watching her face. "What's the matter, Tracey? You've been quiet since morning." I asked, concern etching all over my face. "The usual. I feel so bad for not being able to give you an heir. I don't know what I and the pack will do if anything happens to you. With all our enemies threatening war, it would be heartless of me to deprive you of a successor." She quivered as I jerked up to my feet. I knew my Luna, if she said any more she would begin to bawl and I wasn't sure my heart could take it. "Don't talk like that, Honey. I know it's taking time and we badly need an heir, but I love you and I'm sure the moon goddess would g
Corey's POVYou are pregnant. The doctor's words kept resounding in my ears. How could I have been so dumb? I thought. I kept blaming myself as I knew that there was only one person responsible for the pregnancy. There was no way I could locate him because I hadn't seen him since that day and it felt like he disappeared into thin air. I strolled towards the counter in search of a strong drink that could knock me out. I knew that it was wrong to drink while carrying a child, but I wasn't even sure I wanted the child yet. I neither had a job nor a man, so it would be a herculean task to raise whatever was growing in my belly. My eyes caught the sight of a Stroh 160 rum in the wine cellar. I snatched it immediately and poured it into the glass cup on the counter. "Maybe I should kill myself." I drawled, taking a huge swig from the cup. Natasha had escorted me home and she promised to be back the next morning. Though she was doing her best to show her support and I wanted someone ar

Corey's POV The cops dragged Will out of the building and the aggressive and lustful expression that masked his face was exchanged with terror. I bet he didn't know what was coming his way, the same way I didn't know that he had other plans for me when he asked me to come over. One of the cops that ran in first strolled towards me, his shoulder hung in the air confidently. He had a chiseled jaw with lean cheeks and a very attractive nose. His physique was alluring and I wondered why he wasn't a model. But then it was different strokes for different folks. "How are you?" He asked with a concerned voice. "I'm shaken but I'll be fine once I return to the comfort of my home," I replied, wrapping my blouse around my chest. He flashed a comforting smile at me. "He'll be interrogated and charged to court so that he can be tried. We'll make sure to carry you along while working on the case. Do well to take care of yourself." He said, patted my shoulder, and turned around to leave
Corey's POV "Thank you, Will. How do you feel now?" I asked, making sure I hid every trace of nervousness in my voice as I could sense that something was off. "Actually, I feel better now that you are here." He replied with a sardonic smile that caused my hair to rise. Apparently, he wasn't sick and he didn't know any other way to bring me to his house other than faking that he was sick. "That's really good to know, Will." I smiled, fiddling with my fingers. "So do you want me to drive you to the hospital right now?" I questioned, hoping that he would give me a positive response. He chuckled then dipped his hands in his pocket. "Not yet darling, why don't you make yourself comfortable while I get you a drink?" He offered. "That would be nice, but I need to use the toilet." I lied. He gazed at me for a while then shrugged. "The toilet is at the end of the hallway by your right." He directed me and I quickly turned around, forcing myself to feel comfortable in his presence.
Corey's POV Natasha returned home and found me seated in the same spot, my only luck was that Blake was peaceful and rarely cried even though sometimes I wanted him to cry just so that I could feel that I had a child. "Corey, are you alright?" She asked, wearing concern on her face like a cloak. She flung her bag aside and averted her gaze upstairs then sat beside me on the marbled floor. "Is it Blake? Did anything go wrong with him?" I shook my head, still at a loss of what to say or what to feel. "Kai came here today with Jasper." I blurted and she flinched in shock then time up in anger. "What the hell was he doing here? I thought what I did to him the first day would be enough to keep him away from you." She hollered, pacing from the end of the room to where I sat while I massaged my forehead. "Kai isn't just any kind of man," I replied and wanted to add that he was a werewolf but I decided against it as they didn't even want to be known. "He has money, power, and in
Corey's POV I took a walk around the garden, even though I was still scared of having Kai pass by and find out that I was staying in Natasha's house. I rushed back into the pantry and took a pair of shears, gloves, a rake, and a dustpan then returned to the garden. Blake was resting peacefully in his crib and since I was still job hunting, I had to distract myself as being in the house all day had become very boring. I worked on some stalks which were growing really fast then gathered them together. I was engrossed in my work, humming along to the song that played on my ear pods. When I was satisfied with the work I'd done, I moved to the next rows of flowers that bordered along the fence. I felt a light tap on my skin but ignored it until it became consistent. I twirled around and my eyes met with the last person I was expecting to see. "Kai?" My lips shivered as his name left my lips, my lips narrowing in slits and the shears on my hands fell to the floor. He nodded wit
Kai's POV Lawrence eyed me like I'd gone insane but I was sure that Corey was sitting over there and I had to meet her. If I had to attract the attention I was trying to avoid then I'd do it just to make her come back to me. I walked briskly towards them, my heart thudding against my chest as several thoughts of rejection swirled in my mind. It was scary but the things I did to her were worse compared to what she was doing. Finally, I got to their seat and tried to catch a glimpse of her. Her friend who was all bubbly squeezed her face when she saw me, then I made a pleading sign while palming my hands. "Good afternoon, beautiful ladies." I greeted and then the woman who I thought was Corey lifted up her face. She wasn't her even though they had the same hair color and body physique, but she kept reminding me of her and I wished that she had seen her already. "Do you need anything from us?" She interrogated. "I thought I did but there's no need now." I felt like leaving im
Kai's POV I missed my pack badly, and though my heart was at peace when it concerned them, I still had the urge to be sure that they were actually doing well. I dug into my pocket and reached for my phone while my eyes darted around the nice café I'd come to relax in. Being away from Corey and my son for some weeks messed with my mind. I needed something to hold onto, but there was nothing. I didn't want to use a mind link since I was in public to avoid attracting unnecessary attention to myself. Callan picked up after one ring like he had been expecting my call. "Good afternoon, Alpha Kai. I planned to call you today." His voice was cheerful as he replied. "That's good to hear," I replied with equal enthusiasm. "How does being the temporary pack ruler feel? Draining right?" I chuckled. "Sometimes it is, but I can manage because you taught me how to and presently the pack's ruling council and I are working on the new resort. I'd say that some of them are very difficult to
