Thank you for reading❤️
Leila puts a hand to her chest, letting go of a breath she had been holding as Antonio walks away from her, leaving his threat in the air. He may not have shown it excessively but he is definitely not pleased with her and what price would he make her pay? She sighs deeply, palming her face and shaking her head. Why is all of these happening to her? Why did the goddess even choose to make the Lycan king her second chance mate? Do they have any prophecy tying them together like her and Tatum? Will he even allow her to reject him? She just feels so confused on what to do at this point. Antonio said he has been seeing her for years in his dream, way before he met her that night. He introduced himself as her second chance mate on the very first day they met and even if she did not believe him because of how absurd it sounded, it proved to be true when she rejected Tatum. It is rumoured that he came to the pack for Tatum and Carmela’s wedding and is a guest of the pack, not that he n
“For the charges of the murder of Beta Henry Rogers, the court finds the accused, Beta Trent Easton, guilty and he is hereby sentenced to life imprisonment with no option of parole, for the charges of conspiracy to murder and the murder of the pack witch, Alina, the accused is also found guilty and sentenced to life imprisonment with hard labour,” Judge Ruth slams her gavel as she passes judgement on Trent. Leila gently squeezes her mother’s arm who has teary eyes and she glances at Tatum who keeps a stoic, emotionless look on his face, a short distance away from her, his hands around Tatiana’s shoulder. She still has no idea where Kelvin is or where he could be and she doesn’t know what to do about it, she doesn’t know if he is still alive and she doesn’t want Amara to use her powers to find him again, she is scared of what might happen. She cannot lose her daughter after losing her best friend. She turns her attention back to Trent who is being led away from the courtroom while C
“Leila, you need to calm down,” Liana says to Leila back at their apartment in the living room.Leila stops her back and forth pacing, looks at her mother for a second and continues, bitterness and anger churning inside her. She never saw this coming, not in a million years, nothing gave her a clue of what Antonio’s real plan is, nothing.On one hand, she is grateful that like everyone else, he fell for Carmela’s deceit and will not have eyes on her, it will make rejecting him easy but on the other hand, Carmela has gotten away yet again.Whenever it seems like she is about to get some victory over Carmela, something happens and the table just turns but that is even the least of her worries right now, she has to protect Amara and herself but especially Amara.If he could claim Carmela as his mate in front of her with no remorse, it is a sure sign that he doesn’t give a damn about her at all and he would not hesitate to hurt her and her child.“Where’s grandma?” She pauses and asks he
Liela stares at the test result in disbelief, her ears ring as Amanda’s voice comes as if through water–“Congratulations Luna, the heir to the Blood Oak pack is five weeks old. In PERFECT condition. You are going to be a Mom!” The only thing going through Liela’s mind is: Thank God her gynaecologist also happens to be her best friend, otherwise she won’t even have a chance to keep this a secret.She has to keep it a secret, at least until she can figure everything out.How could she be pregnant? The Alpha doesn’t want one, and he has done all the precautions he could. So how could she be pregnant?!!! Liela can’t even pinpoint exactly which time went wrong because it happened many times more than usual recently. But that doesn’t matter now.The question Liela needs to answer now is: what to tell Alpha Tarum.Does she even tell him? If she just takes care of the abortion herself, then he doesn’t have to know.After all, he is not in the pack right now. He is out there looking for HER,
The doctors didn’t find anything wrong with Carmela except a few bruises, but Tatum insisted on her being hospitalised for the best care with a full bodycheck. Leila spends all the time she can squeeze out visiting Carmela.The whispers about her have gotten louder than ever now that Carmela has returned, with everyone asking, when will Alpha Tatum make Carmela his Luna?The question is not if he will but when he will. Everyone in the pack is so certain of it. As for Leila, she pretends not to hear these gossips, she tries not to think about it. She is just happy that her long-lost best friend who saved her has returned but the happiness is not a full one.Leila knows the truth in her heart and it is the pain that comes with it that makes her still live in denial.Alpha Tatum has tirelessly spent the last two years looking for his lost love and now that he found her, it was only a matter of time before she got the axe of rejection and let his rightful woman take her place.She knew sh
However, she says nothing and turns. She is not going to let this bitter women come between her and her best friend. They are Carmela’s friends, and they are picking on her on purpose because Carmela sacrificed herself for her.She has no position to defend herself.As she heads for the bathroom to get a mob, Edna shrieks behind her: “Who are you leaving this mess to?! Get the shards first! It could hurt someone, jeez!”Leila nods and kneels to pick up the bigger ones with panicking hands, and it is at this moment, the door opens after a short knock, and Leila looks up with the shards cupped in her palm, only to meet the Alpha’s cold eyes.“What are you doing?” He notices Leila and instantly, a frown crawls onto his handsome face.“Alpha!” Carmela jumps off the bed and runs to the Alpha, throwing her arms around his neck like when they were kids, “Can I please, please leave the hospital now? Pleaseeee.”Her cute tone got a light laugh out of the Alpha and he pats her on her waist to ge
Leila tosses and turns on the pristine white sheets of her soft mattress, her red and puffy eyes settling on the chandelier dancing to the tune of the strong wind blowing in from the open window.She smiles bitterly at the ornament swinging above her, it reminds her of own self. She is not in control, she just dances to the tune of whatever terrible music her miserable life is playing.Two years ago, she was just a regular girl hoping to find her fated mate, to live a simple life with him and raise beautiful children but life has her right now as a hated Luna and a jilted wife.Tatum promised to come home after dropping Carmela but it’s been hours and he is still with her, probably reminiscing of the love they used to share before Carmela disappeared She blinks back the tears tugging at her eyes as her chest tightens in pain from the thought. They aren’t mates. She forgot. She shouldn’t have let his kindness cloud that.It was his ultimate act of kindness that made him marry her. Aft
Tatum is sitting on Carmela’s bed in the dark, with Carmela on his legs, her head resting calmly on his chest, with one of his arms around her waist while the other slowly runs up and down her hair.As his Luna and bearer of his mark, the mindlink gives Leila access to all of Tatum’s physical senses and what she sees in her vision cripples her heart, forcing the tears she has been holding back to run down the corner of her eyes.Whatever hope she held out that she meant something to him instantly shatters and an unbearable pain rips through her.A pained smile curves up Leila’s lips and she is about to cut the mindlink when Tatum’s voice barrages into her head.‘What is it?’The coldness of his voice hurt her even more than the image in her vision. It’s like this man feels absolutely nothing but irritation towards her since Carmela returned.Before Leila can even form words in her head, Carmela notices the glow in Tatum’s eyes and guesses it’s Leila mindlinking him.She jumps down from
