Chapter 52 Ariel POV My lungs clutch together, my chest and ribs contract, and I feel my breath coming out slowly. I try to balance my breath, but the more I try to, the more it seems difficult to do. My pulse keeps dropping, I can feel my soul slowly leaving me, as I drown in the water. I raise my hand, hoping I would be saved, but I was drowning in the water, and there was no one to come to my aid. "Help me... Help me, please... I don't want to die," I wanted to scream for help, but I could only scream silently. I don't want to leave my parents. I am the only one they have. "Ariel... Ariel... Please don't do this. Help my daughter. Please don't kill my daughter, I beg of you..." Hearing my dad's voice pleading, tears stream down my cheeks, but it only fades away in the water. Soon, the slashing of swords and screams of my parents shoot through my ears, and that is all I remembered. I feel something drawing me down deeper into the water. "Ariel... Ariel... Ar
Chapter 53 Sharon POV"Is he kidding me?" I scoff for the tenth time as I toss on the bed, before I sit up on it, running my fingers through my hair afterward. Isn't it enough that he humiliated me? Why the fuck am I still thinking of him? This is crazy, honestly. Driving home earlier today, I dashed into my room and stripped out of my clothes before I went to have my bath, and I just got back into the room now. I have been waiting to tell Rose how my date went miserably. The door finally opened, and Rose walked inside the room, but she stopped when she spots me sitting on the bed. "Hey, you're back? When did you get back?" She asks as she finally walks over to sit beside me on the bed, but I only sigh and lay on my back, staring up at the ceiling. "Yeah, I got back minutes ago. Where did you go?" I ask her. "I went to take a walk in the villa. You don't look ok... Did your date go well?" She asks, and I sigh deeply as I sit up on the bed. "No, it didn't. T
Chapter 54 Ariel POV The last few days have been filled with me having weird dreams, but still not being able to gather the pieces together, although it has seemed to me that it should be related to what happened in the past which I have lost memories of. What is bothering me the most is the fact that I can't even speak about it to anybody, not even Alpha Kai. I don't even know how to start explaining, so where exactly do I start? I just got back from work a few minutes ago, and put the kids to sleep, ready to get some sleep after I shower. Sitting in front of the mirror, I hold on tightly to my bracelet, trying hard to see if I can recall what happened in my past, but my head is as blank as nothing, so I think giving up is the best thing to do now. For some seconds, I stop to ask myself about my parents, even though I know that I will never get a good answer to the question. What do they look like? Are they still alive? Have they been looking for me? Those are the ques
Chapter 55 Sharon POV I can't believe I'm going to see Alpha Felix again even after the humiliation he gave me the other day, but I can't help it. It has been five days since I called him, and he asked me to meet him at the same restaurant today, by 5pm. Mom was all excited when I told her that I was going to meet him again, and she went as far as taking me shopping just so I could get nice clothes for the date. I can't remember the last time mom had been so nice to me, up until a few days ago when she found out that my blind date finally piqued my interest after countless dates. 'You don't have to force it, Sharon. You can avoid this if you don't want to' Aaron, my elder brother and the Alpha of our Pack now, had said to me when he found out that I was going to meet another man, but I told him it was fine. My two brothers have always been my guardian angels that were always there for me, and they would go out of their way to protect me and make sure that I'm fine. That is
Chapter 56 Sharon POV "I told you to stay away from him. You can't be with him," He utters, and I scoff. "Why?" Again, I ask him, and he sighs as he throws his head back. "You can't be with him, so just stop questioning me and find someone else. You can't be with him, Sharon..." "Then you should at least tell me why! Are you going to keep me in the dark and not tell me what's going on?" I cut him off, and he takes a deep breath. "His...his sister is my mate that I'm trying to get close to, so you can't get married to him," He replies to me, and I can't help the scoff that tears through my throat. "Are you kidding me?" I blink my eyes at him rapidly, and he takes a deep breath. "I know this is crazy, but..." "Yes, it is really crazy, and there is no but. How can you ask me to stop seeing someone because he is brother to your mate? Are you for real right now, Aaron? Why would you say such a thing..." "We can't get married to the same family, and y
Chapter 57 Ariel POV After spending the whole day in the office, it was finally time to go back to the villa, but Alpha Kai had something urgent to attend to, so I think I'm going to go home alone. Well, he asked me to wait for him in the office, but what use is that, when I know my way around, besides, I can always take a cab home. After I round up, I walk toward the exit door and leave the company afterward. As I stride down the road minutes later, intending to just take a walk before I board a cab, since it has been a while last did this. The gentle breeze that brushes my face makes me feel relaxed, and I can only ask for more. Fresh air is the best, honestly. Barely five minutes into walking, a black shiny car suddenly pulls over beside me, bringing me to an halt, and I turn to check if it's Kai, but the car doesn't look like any of his cars. The door suddenly opens and a young man graced in a black suit hops out of the car. "Excuse me, miss, may I see
Chapter 58 Alpha Kai 'She is mine, and it's only for a short time before she would come back to me' his words replay in my head for the seventh time as I pull over at the restaurant's parking lot. I was so excited and looking forward to having dinner with her tonight, but everything has been ruined by that bastard. Recalling how he was holding her hands and she was comfortable with it, makes me curse under my breath. As much as I want to yell at Ariel for allowing another man to touch her, I try to calm myself so I won't end up scaring her away. It's difficult to act as though nothing happened, but what the heck should I do? Scream at her until she faints? Nah! I'm never going to do such a thing. "Max is waiting for us at the restaurant," I utter before I push the door open and step out of it, slamming it close behind me, and she hops out too. We walk side by side toward the big entrance, and once we walk in, Max smiles at us. This time, he is not alone, but with someo
Chapter 59 Ariel POV "Are you going to ignore me and not give me an explanation for what happened earlier?" He asks once we step into his room, because he dragged me in here, not minding the maids that kept gossiping about us. His eyes are blazing red as he finally lets go of my hand. I gulp down the lump that forms in my throat as I only stare back at him. As much as I want to tell him the truth about how clueless I am about my past, I'm also scared of what his reaction would be. Does he love me to the point of not caring that I don't know of my root? He is a playboy, what if he decides to leave me and go for one of his flings? I know I shouldn't be worried about that, knowing that he won't do that if he truly loves me, but I can't also help it. "Are you two seeing each other?" He thunders at me again, but I can't even bring myself to reply to him as I just stare back at him. "You are going to give me the silent treatment and not say anything to me, right? Fine...
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
