Chapter 31 Ariel POV I sigh briefly when she's done narrating her story of seeing another woman in Max's room when she went there to see him. I warned her about this all along, but she never wanted to listen to me, which got her to where she is today, but sadly, I can't tell her now, because it'll only hurt her more. "I'm sorry about that..." "I don't think he's having an affair with the lady. He wasn't in the room with her. Don't you think she's someone that has a crush on him, and maybe came to see him? He is not seeing another woman, is he?" She whines as she holds my hands, and I sigh briefly. How the hell am I supposed to know that? And wait a minute! Why's she getting all worked up, when they are not even dating? Are they dating already? "Just calm down, Amelie. Maybe you should talk to Max yourself, and see what he has to say about this," I say to her, but she shakes her head as she steps away from me, and I squint my eyes in confusion. "Why?" I can't st
Chapter 32 Alpha Felix It has been a couple of months since I last saw her, and her image is still embedded in my brain. I think of her everywhere I go, and I always wish that horrible incident never happened. We were going to be together, but that horrible incident that shouldn't have ever happened, messed everything up for us, and she suddenly disappeared. After I received the last piece of bad information about her earlier today in my office, I felt like jumping off a cliff and maybe ending everything once and for all. What is life without my mate? Even if the moon goddess is merciful enough to grant me another mate after her, I don't think anyone can ever capture my heart, the way she did during the years we have been together. 'You have to move on and find another mate already, Alpha'. 'You can't stay like this forever without a mate by your side. You will only be getting weaker' those are the words the chiefs, and even my only sister and family, always said t
Chapter 33 Ariel POV My heart beats rapidly against my chest as I sit on the edge of the bed. I can feel something move within me, but it only hurts my body. That thing felt it when the Alpha touched me earlier. It felt really excited and didn't want him to let go. Is there a spirit living inside? I haven't seen the Alpha all day after the incident, so I guess he must've been busy. My mind wanders off to the thought of the man I saw earlier, and I can't help but ask myself who he is. It was my first time seeing the man, yet I felt like I'd known him from somewhere. "Is he from my past?" I ask myself, but I quickly dismiss the thoughts. Although I have no idea about who I was in my past life before I lost my memory of the kind of life I've lived, the man looked like he's a nobleman, and I couldn't have had anything to do with him in the past, right? Pushing all the thoughts to the back of my mind, I stand up from the bed and stride out of my room, heading to lady Le
Chapter 34 Alpha Kai An awkward silence creeps in as we both stand side by side in the garden, staring into space. I shouldn't have yelled at him like that, but I was pissed when I saw Ariel kneeling in front of him. It made me boil in rage that I wanted to devour him. "So you now prefer her to me?" He breaks the awkward silence, and I glance at him unbelievably. "What are you talking about?" I ask him, even though I know what he's on about. "You love her, don't you?" He finally turns to face me, his eyes piercing into mine like he wants to see through me, and I bite my bottom lip as I suddenly become nervous. I don't think I'm ready to answer that question. "I don't know," I reply to him honestly. Although I do have this strange feeling whenever I'm around her, but I don't know if I should conclude that I'm in love with her. "Just stop trying to deny it already. It's obvious, and a lot of people in the villa are already gossipping about it," He rolls his
Chapter 35 Ariel POV After I left Max's place earlier, I went to see Leila, but sadly, she couldn't give me the answer I seek. She said that she had no idea what it was. I had that feeling again when I stepped out of her room and ran into Alpha Kai. I keep having these stupid thoughts, and I don't even think I can stay anywhere close to him again, because I keep feeling drawn to him. What the hell is wrong with me, please? As I head to his study since he asked me to come to see him, I feel my heart hammering against my chest like it's trying to force its way out of me. For some unknown reason, I wanted to turn back and leave, but there was no way I can do that, right? I finally arrive in front of his study, and I knock on the door after about two minutes of contemplating. "Come in," Following his order, I push the door open and walk inside, closing it behind me. "You asked me to see you, Alpha," Even my voice quivers slightly as I speak to him. I try hard n
Chapter 36 Alpha Felix 'I don't know him' I toss on the bed and groan as her words echo in my head for the umpteenth time. It's already midnight, but I can't even bring myself to get some sleep. Has she been here for long? What is the relationship between her and Alpha Kai? Why is she here of all places? Pushing all of my thoughts away, I stand up from the bed and stride out of the room to get fresh air outside. The atmospheric condition in the room is perfect, yet I feel uncomfortable. Maybe it's because I'm feeling disturbed. I would've loved to see her and talk to her, but I'm leaving tomorrow morning, and I also can't see her tonight since it's midnight already. Who knows, maybe she must be asleep already by now. I manage to find my way to the garden to at least clear my head there, but I stop on my track when I walk in and find Ariel standing and staring into space. I blink my eyes a couple of times to be sure that I'm not hallucinating, but I'm not. She's re
Chapter 37 Max POV I woke up this morning with a banging headache since I couldn't sleep all through the night. You are shocked, and probably think werewolves don't feel pain, right? We shouldn't feel pain like headache, stomach ache, body pain, and tiredness, right? Well, that only happens in movies and book series. That magic or miracle rather can only happen there. We do feel pain, and that is the reality of our existence. "Ah!" I wince in pain and rub my forehead as I manage to stand up from the bed and drag myself into the bathroom to wash my face, maybe it'll make me feel better. I walk back into my room minutes later after I wash my face, and I throw myself on the bed, groaning in pain. I need to meet with Phillip today about the progress of the project, but it seems like I won't be able to do it. I'm not feeling too well, and I need to get some rest. The sound of my ringing phone pulls my attention, and I reach out for it lazily. I sigh briefly when I see t
Chapter 38 Ariel POV My heart beats rapidly against my chest as I walk down the verandah with the kids, ready to take them to school. I woke up early this morning and got them ready as usual. "Aren't we going to see daddy before we go to school?" Ruby asks, and my eyes slowly widen as I stop abruptly. I gulp down the sudden lump that forms in my throat. After what happened yesterday, I can't bring myself to face him today, or anytime soon. "You are going to stay in the same office with him later. How about that?" My subconscious mind reminds me, and I sigh silently. It seems like I won't be able to avoid him later. "Oh, your dad? Actually, he went early to the office today, so I don't think you will..." "Daddy!" Ruby suddenly squeaks excitedly as she removes her hand from mine, and hurries away. Gosh! Alpha Kai is here. "I told Ariel to bring us to see you, but she said you went to the office. What happened?" I shut my eyes tightly as I hear her voice. If w
Chapter 155 Epilogue After Alpha Kai realized that it was all a nightmare, he couldn't help the excitement that filled his heart, knowing that he didn't lose any of his kids and his best friend. Three months later, Alpha Kai finally mated Ariel as his forever, and they hosted a mating ceremony where other werewolves of different Packs came to celebrate with them. Four months later... Ariel was in the room and watching a movie when she suddenly felt a sting in her lower abdomen, and she winced painfully as she squeezed her face. "What is wrong with me?" She mumbled as she sat back on the couch and sighed briefly before she continued to watch her movie. As minutes went by, she felt the pain growing slightly severe until she couldn't hold it anymore and screamed when she felt something break inside her and her eyes widened when she saw the trail of fluid that trailed down her legs. As she managed to stand up to her feet, holding her big round tummy, she ma
Chapter 154 At the hospital "I'm sorry, Miss. But we couldn't save him," Amelie's heart sinks into her stomach as the doctor breaks the news to her, and she staggers back. Her heartbeat stops for the next few seconds and her mouth hangs open in shock. She tries to comprehend what the doctor just said to her, but it doesn't seem to sink well into her head, so it's quite confusing and hard to understand. "What...what did you say?" She finally asks the doctor once she is able to gather her strength together. "You should be calm," The doctor pats her shoulder before he pulls the blue satin cloth to cover his face. Her world seems to be crumbling down before her very eyes. Her body trembles as she slowly takes her hand to her stomach. "No... This is not true... This can't be true. Max is not dead," She slowly shakes her head while muttering those words to herself because this whole thing doesn't make any sense to her. How could the doctor even tell her that her mat
Chapter 153 Kai drags his feet toward the prison where Rosa was now kept. The last twenty-four hours have been filled with him running around and trying to get the solution he had promised Ariel, but all efforts have proven abortive and he was on the verge of losing his mind. Who would've ever thought that an Alpha would become like this? Who would ever think that Kai would one day be caught in this mess without any way out for him? Once he stops in front of the prison, his blood boils in rage as he spots her on her knees. How could she be this heartless to have stolen his happiness? He asks himself before he signals the guard to open the gate for him, which was opened immediately. He takes another deep breath before he finally walks in, and when she notices his presence, she slowly raises her gaze to look at him. She has a smirk dancing on her lips, a satisfactory look on which only means that she is enjoying every bit of what she is doing to him. "Why are you here? To pl
Chapter 152 As Ariel waits in front of the prison gate and awaits Rosa, she can't help the nervousness that keeps trying to eat her up. After she heard about what happened, she has come to see her, not to confront her, but to plead with her to please give out the antidote so Nathan could live. The little boy has been going through pain even though he has been in coma for days now, and he is getting weaker each day that passes by. It hurts to see the boy she loves so much being in pain, and it hurts to see the Alpha wallowing in pain, but then, they can't use force on Rosa if they don't want the boy to die. The sound of the chains rattling inside the prison alerts her that she has been taken out of the dungeon. She takes a deep breath before she walks into the prison after the guard opens the door for her. Rosa is on her knees and tied down with an ordinary chain. "Why are you here? To yell at me and tell me how disgusting I am? Are you here to command me to hand over the
Chapter 152 Alpha Kai POV Tears brim in my eyes as I drive home crazily. Nathan and Ariel are in the backseat. He is still unconscious. 'I'm sorry, but there is nothing we can do about this. You have to take him out of the hospital' As the doctor's words replay in my head, I sniff back the tears that threaten to leave my eyes. Now is not the time to cry. I really need to get the antidote now and save my boy. I have already lost his sister, and I can't lose him too. As I drive on the roadway, I suddenly march on the brake, bringing the car to an abrupt halt. I almost ran into a car, but it's a good thing that I was fast enough to stop the car before the horrible thing happened. "Careful," Ariel mutters, and I nod my head. Many thoughts run through my mind and I keep asking myself who would've done this to my son. I was thinking that the person that did it was Rhea, but I guess I wasn't in the right state of mind. I shouldn't have left them alone. I should've s
Chapter 151 Three days laterThe last few days have been rough for Kai and every other person in the Pack. Having his best friend in coma, his son hospitalized with the doctors doing everything they could so they save the little boy, and trying to be fine even though nothing seemed to be working in his favor. Ruby has been cremated already. "You haven't had anything since three days now. Can you eat something, please?" Ariel asks him sadly. He was standing on the balcony of the hospital and staring up at the sky while in tears. He has always thought he was strong, but with everything that has happened to him in the space of five days, it now occurred to him that he is nothing strong. "I'm not hungry," He replied to her flatly, and she sighs briefly. "What should I do? Is Nathan going to die too? Is Max going to leave me too as Ruby did?" He asks her as he stares into space, more tears streaming down his cheeks. "Shhhh! Everything is going to be fine. I promise you,
Chapter 150 Alpha Kai POV I'm still having a bad feeling about this even though Amelie told me yesterday that they are fine. I still have this feeling that something is not right, and I can't help but get nervous. Losing my baby is the last thing I want. I will lose my mind if such a thing happens. "Amelie said that they are fine. You don't have to be worried," Ariel assures me as the driver drives us to the airport. We woke up early this morning and got dressed before we left the hotel. "Hmm," I nod my head, but that still didn't stop me from being worried or nervous, rather. If only I can appear in Europe right now, I would be so glad. "You'll be fine," She utters as she clasps her fingers with mine, and I slowly nod my head. Sadly, we couldn't make our vacation a memorable one, but I'm going to make it up to her some other time. The only thing on my mind right now is my kids. We finally arrive at the airport, and the flight takes off about thirty minutes la
Chapter 149 Amelie POV I pace restlessly along the hallway. Leila and Rosa are also here with me. Max and Ruby had just been rolled into the ER, and I'm so scared. Max was brutally injured, and Ruby... I don't even want to think about what will happen to him, because it's scary to imagine it. I just pray they survive this. "Don't you think you should call the Alpha or Ariel?" Madam Leila asks me, and I stop pacing. I haven't thought about that because I'm not in my right state of mind. I don't know if I will be able to hold on to my phone later. I don't know if I will be able to talk, because my body is trembling. "You...you should call him," I reply to her, and she finally walks away. "They are going to be fine. You should sit, please. It's not good for the baby," I hear Rosa's voice, and I raise my gaze to find her standing beside me. If I can gather the memories together, Rosa and Max haven't been on good terms, she never liked the kids, so I wonder why she save
Chapter 148 Rhea POV I think now is the time for me to carry out the plan I have. I know Kai won't spare me after this, but I don't mind. If I'm going to die, then it would have to be with someone precious to him. I have to hurt him in a way that will break him for as long as he is alive. Since I still have my wolf power within me, I summon her and in no time, I was able to break from the chain, since it isn't a silver chain that could hurt me. Although I don't have power as a witch anymore, I trained and was very good at combat. I was able to take down the guard in front of the prison. I manage to find my way to the kids' room, and there they are. They are both sleeping peacefully with their nanny, I think Leila is her name. They are all sleeping peacefully, and I scoff when I see them. Now that I recall everything that little witch said to me, makes my heart is clouded with hatred for her. She never considered me as her mother, she never looked at me, she always cursed m
