LUCAS’S POV

“You don’t mean that? “ I deadpanned watching my brother closely. Even Leo who had withdrawn out of our conversation had moved closer to see if he had him right.

“I have never been in the habit of joking. Especially when I am addressing issues as serious as this. So yes I meant what I said” Damien marched my energy as he replied.

“How did you even come up with that? You can't decide for everyone” That was single-handedly the reason I have been having problems with him. He seems to think he could just wake up and make decisions for everyone around him.

“I oppose this. I do not want her to be here. I refused to stay in the same space with someone who might have a hidden agenda of destruction against us” Leo replied, leaving no room for argument.

“You are not even sure if she is” Damien argued.

“Neither are you sure that she is not” Leo argued back.

“Look, there is no point to be arguing about all these with you. While you two are stuck on finding fault in this, I want you t

    NATALIA’S POV“Do you not need the vegetables this time around? I can slash the price for you” The woman who I have made a habit out of buying food from, spoke. Her eyes lingered on my bloated tummy.“I am not sure if I need that” I mumbled. “I have gotten everything I need right here” I raised the plastic bag she just packed for me herself.“Nonsense! What do you mean by that? If anyone needs vegetables at the moment, it should be you. For the baby’s growth, you need to eat more vegetables in your food so you get them now!” She instructed, already packing them into another plastic bag.“Alright, here is the thing. I do not have the money to buy them okay?” I finally came clean and told her the truth. If I told her how I was able to get the money to start with, she was probably going to send me away from her stall.“Oh goodness no my darling” She gave me the motherly eyes that always lure me toward her stall whenever I walked into the night market. “I will pack everything for you.

Getting food done with the various herbs and veggies I found around and making sure everything was kept in an orderly manner.Leo was starting to warm up to me, though slowly, but an improvement is an improvement nonetheless and he was finally coming to terms with the reality that I had no trick on my hand that I would be showcasing immediately he turned around.They most of the time, just stick to speaking to each other and completely ignoring me. And they will only get me involved in their stuffs when it is utterly necessary. Especially Damien, who I could count the number of times he even looked my way for the whole time I have been here.They have a plan. They were plotting something very big.

    DAMIEN’S POVI honestly don’t take her for someone who would bluntly ask a question and she proved me right immediately after asking. When she realized that she had probably spat out her inner thought, her hand immediately jolted toward her mouth and she covered it as if to take back the words that were already in my head.“Your Highness, I deeply apologize. I am sorry. I do not mean to…. I have no intention of asking you that. You don't have to answer. I am apologetic, you shouldn't answer that” She blabbed while trying to somehow justify her sudden outburst.I chuckled at her confused state and focused my attention on the laid-out bamboo bed behind her for a while, my thoughts bumbling back to how we ended up here. It wasn't far-fetched and I see no reason to keep it away from her when they were made to believe that we were dead. I understand her confusion and curiosity. “No…no it is fine. I truly understand how you might be feeling all these while living with three people to whom

    NATALIA'S POVEach time I found my way into this palace, I would always have this gut feeling that nothing had changed. But today, I felt like something was amiss when in reality nothing was frankly amiss.It was just the usual palace setting at night with guards scattered at the right places whereas the rest of the free areas were covered in nothing but darkness and eerily silence. To silence that I honestly preferred to stick to where the guards were. There, at least I knew who was upon me. But swallowed in the midst of that darkness, I had no idea what to expect at any moment and just held onto my lucky stars hoping it didn't disappoint.Steve's room wasn't in the usual location of all other workers which made me gather that he might be special to the Alpha then. Getting to his room was a bit of a challenge but with months of snicking around experience, I managed to pull that off indicated. I stood in front of his door for a longer time than necessary, contemplating if to go in o

    NATALIA’S POVMy heart fell fast forward into my stomach as I stood rooted to my spot. One thing I knew for sure was, that I was done for and the days of my unproductive hiding had come to an end.James surged closer in his almighty nature, the person who I recognized to be Steve, walking slowly behind him with caution, clearly trying to dictate who it was.I remembered vividly, that the last time I had any form of one-on-one encounter with James was the last time I held my freedom when he forcibly sold me off and shipped me here. From that moment onward, I never wanted to see him, lay my eyes on him, or do anything that would lead me back to where he lived.This moment right here, when I met with James on one, had been my biggest nightmare for ages and I would have traded anything to have it erased from my destiny but guess who fate is laughing at now? Me.Does that mean that is all? Every attempt I have made will come to an end, will be in vain? That thought didn't sit well in my h

    NATALIA'S POVRelief.The amount of relief that gushed over my form as I watched him walk away was unexplainable. Whatever had made the moon goddess turn luck toward me today must be a vague reason which perhaps I was going to pay for later.Wherever I set foot, there would always be misconceptions and crises surrounding me, that is my life I have accepted it and don't feel miserable about it. We all have flaws in some way, right? Well, I have let it sink in my head that this is my flaw and there is nothing I can do to turn my back against it. So I just embrace it and live on.So imagine my utter shock when things turned out in my favor this time around. Fate is frankly comical if you noticed.I held my breath with anticipation for each step he took away from me. I was expecting him to turn back at any moment and yell out for me to be seized. But nothing of that nature happened and he continued to move away and away from me.Even after he rounded the corner, I still had my breathing

    STEVE’S POVShe could have been caught. The fact that he not only knew her but also had the information that all the stress we were going through throughout the day just to locate her and end her life was terrifying enough. Not to speak of seeing her in front of my room, it will almost be like a sort of betrayal and goddess forbid Micheal find out I have betrayed him all these while. He might be practicing and enjoyed betraying on his own but he so despised it when it was done to him and I have watched and known firsthand how he handled folks that betrayed him. Even for me who had spent half of my life serving and getting people killed just to please me, watching him torture people had always imprinted an alarming image in my head which left me with nightmares for weeks.So in simpler terms, I just managed to escape that with luck. I have no idea what came over him today when I knew he was a very observant person. But whatever it was, I am super grateful for it.As we marched towa

    NATALIA'S POVMy anger aside, he was right. He was right and although it took me time to get that, I did get it and I knew that he was correct and I was the one on the wrong side. Each time I found myself in the palace, I seemed to be guided by my emotions and ended up there at the wrong time mostly. Now that I have an open eye to stare at it, I can actually tell how impractical I have been all this while. The way he said it out might have sounded offensive, but he frankly has a point and had managed to open up my eyes to it.Let's face it, I could have been caught at any time. I didn't have any measures put in place to prevent that speaking about the fact that I had already been tagged as the "hooded figure" walking around with pregnancy.I don't know what got into my head and convinced me not to wear that clothes today but I was honestly grateful that I didn't. Imagine how it would have been if James walked in on me wearing that, he would have recognized a certain "hooded figure"

    MICHEAL'S POVMy gaze moved from one elder to the other as speak, uttering words I knew I was going to put down at the end of everything. They have been trying to get me to have a meeting with them for ages and this was the first meeting we are having in a while, if not I could have dismissed them and left the room.I shouldn't be here when I have far more troubles to deal with and as I followed them with my eyes, I was wondering if there was any way at all that I could follow to ease all of these positions. It has been a tradition for every pack to have an elder whereas I see no point in it. They help in no way. All they do is bring up problems that will stress you even more even when you think you are managing the pack really well. There might be no way to get rid of them but I know for a fact that I am not going to tolerate them in any way. If they were tolerated by the past rulers then they should get ready for a change."I think reducing the rate of the tax at this point will b

    DAMIEN'S POVMy gaze flickered from Lucas to Leo, still not believing that they were even thinking about doing that. This just confirmed to me that they do not know the gravity of the situation we are in."We can get into the pack, grab her, and then leave the pack all in one day. We can take as much time as we desire to bring her back to this place" That was Lucas, speaking wholeheartedly to Leo."And if we can even consider this in a broader sense, we can continue living there with her instead of coming back all the way here you know" Leo added his delusions all the while I observed them with wide unbelieving eyes."That will be a wise thing to do if we can be able to pull that out smoothly," Lucas remarked."Alright, alright, you all should slow down" Having heard enough of their bullshit, I chimed in immediately.They both turned to look toward me at the same time. They were so deep in their conversation that they had forgotten that I was still in their presence."I hope you two r

    NATALIA'S POVI was happy.That is the word, happiness. You can never tell just how much loneliness has affected you until you are opportune to be in the presence of people again. It just so happens to be the best feeling and almost everything you think was a problem would end up being not an actual problem and was just created by your mind overthinking because you have no other person to share your thoughts with. I have been that way for the past months, just thinking and thinking my life away. The only time I had the chance to interact with anyone was when I paid a visit to the palace or when I was off to get my food supplies in the market. It has always been a routine. Stay at home for up to a week, go out to the market and the palace, and then come back to the loom of loneliness and silence. I had no idea that it was affecting me until now that I was blessed with the presence of other living beings."What do you desire to eat today?" Cole asked after he knocked on my door and I

    LUCAS'S POV"What?" I asked Leo who was suddenly looking at me like I had managed to develop a second head in three seconds.He didn't budge, and I wasn't even sure if he heard my statement. He seems to be in a haze, deep in thought. "Leo? What the hell is wrong with you?" Damien, who was more closer to him asked while tapping him on the shoulder. This seems to have made him snap out of whatever hex that had suddenly befell him. "What?" I asked again, eager to know what was on his mind. "I think I know...." He slowly muttered, still falling back in thought."You know what?" It turns out I wasn't the only one eager to hear what he wanted to say because both Damien and I spoke at the same time, this time around."I think I know where Natalia is hiding" After some painful seconds of waiting, he finally spoke again, emphasizing any word he muttered."What do you mean by that? How did you know where she was hiding? Is that even possible?" I remarked, a deep frown playing on my face. I c

    LEO'S POVI do not despise her. I just don't trust her. I am still failing to believe she ended up just finding herself with no motives. Let's face it, I am a very practical person. For us to find ourselves here, we spend days on end running. The keyword there has been running. We never stopped once, encountered numerous dangers on the way and because we are warriors, we aced it. So imagine just a defenseless lady going through all of these. I see no chance of her survival. Except if she was escorted here by someone experienced, who stays hidden behind the shadows. So it makes no sense to me that Damien blindly believed her and even allowed her to stay with us. I have tried multiple times to talk him out of it but he just wouldn't budge. He kept telling me he knew Micheal and in her explanation, there was no form of deception. It's frustrating that he can't just listen to me for once and agree that there is more to what she was saying than meet the eye. It doesn't help that he has

    DAMIEN’S POV“And you think everything is going to be as we left it?” Lucas inquired, looking amusingly at me.“Of course not, things are going to change drastically, and above all, your personal items are going to be used by another set of people” I clarified.“Damn man, I will hate to rearrange. It is going to take painful weeks of working” Leo winced, slumping his shoulder against the rocky wall. “You can simply just move to another wing you know, there are numerous parts in the palace and it is enormous enough for you to change wing each week for two months so there is no reason to throw a tantrum” I proclaimed with a shrug.We were currently having a casual discussion on how things were going to be when we returned back to the palace after everything died down. We haven’t really brought forth who is supposed to role but I think we have now learned our lesson and are going to cross that bridge successfully when we get to it.“Not man, I choose to stay in that part of the palace f

    STEVE’S POVI sat down at the single desk and chair in my room after I was done with my duty for the day. Making sure to lock my door first, I brought the pen and paper I was going to use to write the letter and placed it in front of me on the table.I wasn't sure what to write but I knew I had to write something very convincing if I really wanted them to believe my words were genuine and not just some created tales to come between them. Micheal is wise and would definitely deny anything of that nature has been plotted if they decide to approach him so I will need to come up with words convincing enough to make them just act and not go about asking.I twirled the pen in my hand multiple times for minutes on end, staring at the blank sheet in front of me and not knowing what to write.After additional minutes of silence and thinking, I finally came up with enough words to start up with. There won't be any need to greet so as they would know it was coming from someone from a higher leve

    NATALIA’S POV“I thought you were dead at first and then news began to spread around the pack that the new leader was searching vehemently for you which was so confusing at that time. We searched too, hoping to reach you before any of them. We never gave up on our search and that faithful day we got you, it was purely coincidentally and you were just at the wrong place at the wrong time. The news got to us that guards would be surveying this part of the pack today and we were out to keep watch so we caught you thinking it was a guard. It doesn't help that you were dressed in men’s attire” Kyle explained with the others sitting at each side of him.I, on the other hand, was sitting on the opposite side of them and listening attentively.“I don't understand, I thought you went out with them that night?” I asked, referring to my mates. Confusion setting in.“No, we didn't. No one did because they informed no one that they were going anywhere. It was all a work of Micheal to get them corn

    NATALIA’S POVWas I okay? I wasn’t even sure. I was so consumed by an immersed amount of shock that I had no idea whether I was okay or not. I was clueless as to how I was feeling. I swallowed loudly, the feeling so foreign to me after days of not being able to do that. My eyes trailed from one of their figures to another, trying to wrap my head around the fact that they were real and in front of me. Instinctively, I reached out to touch Kyle who was the one kneeling in front of me.My hand fell on his shoulder, a more confirmation that he was alive and in front of me. I wasn't hallucinating. Damn even if I was, why will I be seeing them of all the amount of people I missed.They were real. They were frankly genuine and were standing right in front of me. But the question that was stuck in my head was how did I not think about them all this while? How did I not remember and enquire about them? Now that my mates were no more, they should be the closest thing to a parent my kid would h
