MAGNUS' POV

“I don't forgive you.“ She says, shocking us both. Audrey was not a vengeful person. She couldn't hold a grudge to save her life. Which was why I was deeply shocked to hear her say that.

Alexa looked at me for help. I simply shrugged. I don't know what to do, either.

“But…”

“You know why? Because you almost cost me my happiness, and I didn't even do anything to you. You just thought it'd be okay to do those things to me. You want something that will never be yours, and you don't mind who you hurt in the process. I've been through a lot with Magnus, and you almost made me run to protect my baby, so yes, I don't forgive you.“

“Babe.“

“You can apologize. You can even be sincere about it, but I don't forgive you. That, I can do. You don't deserve it, and I won't do it. I'm not that magnanimous, sorry.“

She was apologizing for not forgiving someone. This was the type of behavior that made me more obsessed with this woman.

“Alpha Magnus.“ She whispered as if I had any say in it

    MAGNUS' POVThe funeral went well, and in a way, the funeral was a consolidation of Audrey's position as Luna.“So that went well.“ I stripped and joined her in bed.“Yes.“ She yawned and rubbed her eyes.“Tired?““Very.“ I chuckled. “How do you do this every day?““Do what?““Be Alpha.““I have motivation right here,” I said, rubbing her belly. “You and our baby. The mere thought of any harm coming your way because I was too lax with security is enough reason for me to wake up in the morning.““Aw, that's sweet.““I guess it is.““I forgot to tell you earlier, but we found your father.“ I felt her stiffen in my arms.“Where?“ She said in a small voice. I know what she really wanted to know was if he was still alive.“The guards found him near the north creek.““That is unclaimed territory, isn't it?““Exactly. So we can't pin the kidnapping or break-in on anyone.“She fell silent for a while. “Did he say anything?““Nothing.“ I didn't tell her about the threat or the bullet shell.“H

I wondered what transpired between them that made her like this.“I'm sorry, baby.“ The first conversation we had about her father came back to me.“You're the Beta's daughter, aren't you?““Yes.“ She said nonchalantly,as if she could care less if she was or not.“What? You don't like it?““Like what?“ Her tone was becoming irritated.“Like you don't like being Beta's daughter.““It's not all that people think it is.“ She shrugged. “He's not all that, either.““It doesn't sound like you're a big fan of the man.““I put up with him, don't I?““But what if…”“Can we just drop it? I don't exactly want to talk about my father when I'm having a good time.““You're having a good time, huh? I better not ruin it.“ I smoothly changed the subject.For the remainder of that day, Audrey refused to speak to me or anyone. She huddled in bed and has been in that position all day

To my pack members, I was still the same Alpha, but I was the only one who knew how much I struggled to keep everything together inside.After I dealt with that brat Paul, I sent him and his grandfather away before I made rash decisions.I became tougher on my soldiers. I became a more hands-on Alpha. I trained with them every day and pushed them to their limits.One day after a training that was designed to kill even the strongest in my team. “Alpha Jaxon?“ One of them spoke up.“Yes, Derek?““Is there a war coming up?““No. Why do you ask?““Well, Alpha,” he said, looking around for support. “We…I think we have been training too hard for nothing.““Do you all think so?“There were murmurs of consent, but no one said anything in particular. I brought out my gun and shot him point blank in the head. There was a deafening silence as his body hit the ground.“Anyone else wants to whine like a fucking baby?“ I yelle

Wait… how come you are sneaking around? Can't you be here?““One question at a time.“ He said. “Long story short, I'm not supposed to be here but I am, aren't I?“I suddenly hugged him. “Whoa. Someone missed me, huh?““I did.“ I breathed him in. He smelled like home.“It's too dangerous here. Do you know Lucas's house?““Who's Lucas?“He pressed a paper into my hand. “That's the direction. Meet me there tonight.““I can't exactly go out.““Why? You're not a baby.“ His tone was indignant.“Something happened and now I'm being watched at everytime of the day.““What?!““Long story.“ I sighed.“Whatever. Just make sure you meet me back there. You can tell me everything then.“He sneaked out without waiting for my explanation. I sighed and went back into the house.I went back to my room early th

Who do you think I'm doing all this for?““Your baby sister.“ He cracked up as if I had just made a joke.“You can't be serious,“ he said, still laughing.“I am.“ I huffed. “Where do you even know her from?““I guess no one bothered to inform you.““That?““You know there was a time Audrey ran from him?““Yes. He just showed up one day with her.““I helped her run away.““What?!““I met her while I was helping him get the pack's affair in order. We fell in love.“I snickered. “What? You think it's funny?““Yes. You fell in love with her; she didn't.““You don't know that.“ He fumed. “We were even going to have a baby, and I'd make her Luna.“I stood there with my mouth wide open. “You were going to father another man's baby? And make her Luna?““Yes. Why is that surprising to you?““You really do love her, don't you?“He looked away and said nothing.“Anyway,” he said, taking out a clear bag

    AUDREY'S POVMagnus and I have been seeing less and less of each other. I only feel him when the bed dips as he joins me in bed late at night. He leaves before I wake, and I wake up to his cold side of the bed, so I know he's been long gone.This morning, though I woke up earlier than him, I could at least see his face. I never get to see him during the day either. He has been following guards on patrol trips and just generally tightening our security. As Luna too, I've been spending more time with the women of the pack. They readily accepted me, and I feel more comfortable in the pack even though I have lived here all my life.“Good morning.“ I watched him squint in the morning sun.“What time is it?“ He hurriedly rolled off the bed.“A little after 8.““What? I'm so late.““You're the Alpha.“ I chuckled.“I have a lot of things to oversee. I promised to train with the guys.““Wow.“ I muttered and stood up, too. “Are you okay?““Bloody hell no.“ I spat at him. “Doesn't it bother yo

    AUDREY'S POV“You won't believe what he said about her.“ I smiled in glee at the thought of him discussing me with Mane. I wondered what they were talking about.I didn't have to wonder for long because my world shattered at her next words.“He wished she would be less whiny, and he doubted if he wanted a baby at this stage of his life.““Nah. You can't be serious.““I am. He told Beta Mane he should have thought about it carefully before making a decision on whom to make Luna.““He did not.“ The other maid gasped dramatically.“He did. I was so shocked. Now I'm not in a hurry to meet my mate.“ “It still feels like something out of a story to me. Are you sure you heard correctly?““Why would I lie?““They are mates, aren't they?““Makes one doubt it. What man would not want his mate to have a baby for him?““I don't believe it, Freya. I simply don't. They love each other too much. No, he loves her too much to do that.“ The maid said.“He even cooks for him. I want to make Audrey her

I didn't know what to say to that.“You have nothing to say? I knew it!““Knew what? I was just surprised.““Surprised that I was able to figure it out?““Audrey, what? What is going on? I know you have all the right to be mad at me for standing you up, but you keep talking about things I don't understand. I don't like how much you're working yourself up. It can't be good for our baby.““Our baby? This baby is mine.“ She declared. She wrenched her hand free from mine before storming out of the room.I stood there for a minute to take in what just happened.An hour later, Mane entered my office.“My Alpha.““Mane.““Did Luna take it well? I'm sure she can't be angry at you for long.“She's not only angry, Mane. She was completely irate.““What? She didn't believe you.““I didn't even have a chance to explain the things that happened

    FINAL CHAPTERMAGNUS POV"What are we doing then?" Mane asked."He will be waiting for an attack. We won't give him one.""So we are not attacking him?""We definitely are.""I'm confused, Alpha.""It's simple. We are still going to go with the strategy you drafted, except that I'll go in first. Distract him.""Oh. That's much better; the spy said he's getting passports done, so we know he's leaving soon, and he will be at his pack.""Exactly." I stood up, battle-ready. "Let's get a move on then. I would hate to miss him.""Yes, Alpha.""I'll go first. Lead the men and meet me there.""Yes, Alpha." I got in my car and drove off. This was the third time I was traveling this route in months, and I hope this will be the last time I'm going with fear and uncertainty in my heart.If our plan works, then this will be an easy win. I packed my car about ten meters from his house at the edge of the park and waited until the coast was clear."Alpha, come in." Mane's voice filled the earpiece I

When she still saw Magnus for the hypocrite that he is,"Why are we here?" She was even more beautiful than before."You will see.""Is my baby in here?""Do you want to see for yourself?" Why was I answering her questions with a question?I pushed the door open. "I fixed the door. You know the one Magnus threw me into?""Jaxon, I really am not interested. I don't feel sorry for you or anything. I just want to see my baby. How hard is that to comprehend?""I'm sorry, my lady." He smirked. He finds her adorable with her smart mouth. "Your baby is right up ahead."She climbed the stairs and went into his room. There was the baby. There was a maid with him."Who are you?" She jumped up."His mother, that's who. Get out.""No, Alpha Jaxon said...""I don't care what Jaxon said. Get the fuck away from my son." She yelled at him. I

I handed him the note Audrey left me. Soon after, Estelle joined me too."What's happening?" He showed her the note. "Oh Goddess." She groaned."What?" We both turned to her. "Do you know something?""She suddenly wanted to be alone yesterday. This might be what she was plotting.""Why didn't you say something?""I didn't think it was important. I didn't know she was planning anything. I'm sorry."I relented. "There was no way you could have known." Mane said."She obviously got a letter." "What?" We turned to her again. "What are you talking about?""She said she was going to be long gone, meaning she knew where she was going.""That's not hard to guess. She's going to go to the Blue Moon Pack.""Jaxon would not go back to his pack with a baby. No one is that stupid. He must still be nea

    AUDREY'S POVLAST NIGHT"Where are the men now?" I asked Estelle. It was a rhetorical question. I didn't expect her to know."Last I heard, they were searching all the empty houses.""Why?""They say there is a possibility that the kidnapper might still be on ground." My nerves spiked up. "Is it possible?""I don't want us to put our hopes up." She said gently. "I believe the Alpha will do everything he can to bring him home.""I know."About twenty minutes later, I left her to go back upstairs. We came down earlier to see what was happening."What is happening?" I pulled one of the guards aside."The Alpha got injured.""What?""He is at the physician's already.""Oh No. Is he okay?" I couldn't afford to lose my husband either."Yes, Luna. He might be unconscious for a while because he was hit pretty badly.""Thank you for scaring her, you jerk." Estelle sneered at him, and I patted her hand."Can I go see him?""No, Luna. I have strict orders to keep you here.""I see." I sighed. "

Was I really ready to tell him my life story?“You don't have to talk about it if you don't want to.“ He said. It wouldn't hurt to tell someone.“No, it's cool. What did you ask again?““I want to know why you have never felt at home anywhere.““So my parents died in my last year of high school. Rogue attack or something like that. I stayed with a friend of theirs until I could leave for college. The point is, I've always been on the move. I never stay in the same place long enough to feel at home there.““I see.“ What did he see? “It sounds like an eventful life.““A sad, eventful life.““My life has been very boring. There's nothing spectacular about my life. My father

Same as the third.“All clear, Alpha.“ I was beginning to think this was a futile effort.We reached Audrey's old house.“Do you know where this is?“ I said to Mane.“No, Alpha.““This is Audrey's old house. This was where she lived for the first twenty years or so of her life.““Oh. Are we checking it?““It's not necessary. I still send maids to clean this place out regularly.““Yes, Alpha.“We moved on from the house.“Alpha.“ One of the guards caught up with us.“Yes.““I think I saw a curtain move.““Are you sure?“ Mane asked.“Well, why didn't you say anything?““I'm sorry, Alpha.““It won't hurt to check it out.“ I directed them to go back.“I don't have the key, shit.““We could break it down.“ Mane suggested.I thought about it for a while.

That is exactly what she feared. You would have waged war against them. She just gave birth. I'm sure she doesn't want to see the father of her child injured or, worse, dead.“I thought about that. He was right. “What do you suppose I do now?““Wait it out. Let's wait for the search party to come back. We will join them in the morning and lead the search party to Blue Moon Pack.““Hmm. We can do that.““The kidnapper has the advantage of the night. Besides, the person might still be in the pack.““You think so?““I feel strongly about that.““Hmm.“ I went back to the office.

What are you cooking?““Just some soup for the guards.““Give me some.“ I don't know why I was suddenly craving soup.“Yes, Luna.“ I sat on the stool and waited for her to set up the dish. “Here you go.““Thank you.“I slurped up the soup, and I was surprised by how tasty it was. “This is delicious, Elsa. How come you never make soup for us?“She smiled. “I didn't think you would like it, Luna.““Well, I do.“ I smiled. “Please include it in the meal plan.““Yes, Luna.“ I took a big swig of water. I went back up to my baby to relieve Estelle of her duty.“Estelle ?“ I shook her awake when I reached the nu

I wish there was a way I could see her reaction when she got the gift. Would it be too much if I fashioned a secret camera into the jewelry?It's too late, anyway. I couldn't call him back now.Would I get a response? This could go two ways: a war or a war. I had to prepare and be ready to go.“Hey, Pete.““Yes, Alpha.““For the shift tonight, double the guards and make sure there are some guards at all the borders we share with other packs.““Yes, Alpha.“ Smart man.
