NAYA"Well, the Elders did give her a hard time when she first arrived. But Naya but them in their places. They told her that even though she was your daughter, they could not let her take over the pack. They told her that they wanted to appoint someone else that they trusted," Jake told my father. "Those damn bastards! I should have known that they are going to do something like this! Who do they think they are to tell my daughter that she is not good enough?! I am not even dead yet and they are already trying to replace me? I am going to have a good talk with them as soon as I get back!" My father said firmly. "Dad please. I told you that I had it all under control. I was able to deal with it in the end. You don't have to think about anything at all and you should please just focus on getting better. That would be the best for all of us" I said to him. I did not want him stressing himself out. Not when he just woke up. "But do you really want me to let them get away with this?!
NAYAThere was an awkward silence between me and my father when I told him this. It was as if he was looking for the right words to say and he could not find any. "This.....he cheated on you with Sophie? Are you sure about this? Maybe you heard it from someone else and you're misunderstanding both of them? I know that Liam is not a good person and that Sophie likes to take advantage of you a little bit but I don't think that it's that serious. I don't think they she's going to go behind your back to cheat on you with your fiance. This....I don't think that it is the truth," my father said. I sighed. "Dad, I know that it is hard for you to believe this. I did not want to believe it either but it is the truth. They were really cheating on me behind my back. And they were even planning on how they were going to get rid of me. It was a good thing I found out about it on time or else who knew what else they were both planning to do to me?" I asked my father. .My father shook his head.
ROWANI woke up to see that I was lying on my bed. I tried to sit up on the bed but my head was hurting badly. It was as if someone was constantly hitting my head with a hammer. I winced in pain as I tried to remember what had happened before. It took me quite some time to remember that we had run into the rouges on our way back. There was a fight and I was not prepared for them at all ...they had overpowered us since Henry the driver and I were the only ones in the car. It took me a few minutes but I was able to sit on the bed. I was about to call for Henry and ask him what was going on but the door was pushed open and he walked in with the doctor just then. "You are awake," Henry said to me. I nodded my head. "What happened?" I asked. The doctor started to check up on me. "We weren't prepared to deal with the rouges. They were able to get away with hurting you. I did catch the person who hurt you though and he won't tell me anything. He's currently in the dungeon and he's re
ROWAN"Rowan! I heard about what happened to you! How are you? You didn't get hurt too badly right?" The woman threw herself at me and hugged me tightly. I looked at Henry and then looked at Jessica who was holding on to me tightly and refusing to let go. I tried to push her off me but she refused to let go of me. I looked at Henry again for an explanation. What was the meaning of this? Jessica finally pulled away from me when she felt that I was starting to get uncomfortable but she was still holding onto my hand. "What is going on? How did you know that something happened to me?" I asked Jessica. Jessica was the last person that I thought would know avoid what happened and would come to see me. Especially since we did not part ways on good terms the last time that we talked. I thought that we were never even going to see each other. "I was the one who told her. She called me and asked about your condition. She was really persistent and I had no other choice but to tell her" H
NAYAA few days later, my father was finally discharged from the hospital. The doctor had told him that he could stay back for a few more days but he said that he did not want to do that. He wanted to get back to the palace as soon as possible. I knew that he was worried that the Elders were causing trouble and he wanted to go back to deal with it as soon as possible. My father assured me that it was not that he did not trust me. He just knew the kind of people that the Elders were and he was worried that they were going to try and cause trouble for me behind my back and that was what he didn't want them to do. Somehow, they had gotten the news that my father was going to be back from the hospital and the Elders were already at the palace by the time we got back from the hospital. They were in the living room and we met them as soon as we walked in. The Elders stood up with smiles on their faces. They all looked happy to see him and I could not help but scoff. I could see how
NAYAIt's just hard to get them to take me seriously. I feel like they don't care about me and anything that I am saying. Almost like they are patronizing me. How am I supposed to take over the pack after? What am I going to do then?" I could not help but be worried for my future. I had never had much interest in leading the pack before but after all the things that happened, I knew that I could not trust anyone to do it. I had to do it myself. "Don't worry too much, Naya. You've been doing a good job. I am sure that the Elders will think twice before they decide to mess with you. You may not know it but they know that you are not someone to be messed with. They have to think twice before they say anything to you. I could see it in thirty eyes just now. They were a lot of things that they wanted to say to you but they stopped themselves when they reminded themselves how you were going go take it. They don't dare to push you too much, " my father told me. I could not help but think t
NAYAMy eyes went wide as I thought of something. I had never considered it before, but the more I thought about it the more it was all starting to make sense to me. "Dad, do you think that the Elders....maybe one of the elders could be the spy?" I asked my father..A serious look appeared on his face just then. "You know that this is a really serious accusation and that things can go the wrong way if it turns out that you're wrong right?" He asked me. I nodded my head urgently. "Yes. I know that this is a really big accusation. I know that things can turn out badly if it turns out that I am wrong but please just think about it, dad. I don't think that I am wrong. When Liam called me, he told me that he wanted me to get married to him. He mentioned that the elders were already pressuring me because I did not have a husband. They don't know about Rowan and I, remember. When Liam called me, the Elders had just left. The news won't have spread to anyone else by that time. So it m
NAYA"Your Highness. It's not that we are trying to look down on you or undermine your decision, no it is far from that. We never thought about doing anything like that to you. We also are not looking down on your daughter. We just have a few concerns about her. This is our pack, after all. And we just want everything to be fine. We want a leader whom we can trust," Nathan, the first elder that spoke up when he walked in spoke up again. "Oh? And what is the problem that you have with my daughter? The fact that she is a woman? Or is it her marriage? I heard that you told her that she can't be the one in charge of the pack until I get better since she is not married and that you are going to find someone else to replace me. I had no idea that you guys wanted to replace me so bad. If I had known then....I guess I should have been more careful?" He asked them. They all frowned when he said this and I was really happy to see them like this. It was what they deserved. What did they think
ROWAN Jessica handed the phone over to me with shaking hands. "I....I called him. He told me that he's going to be here soon. Are you happy now?" Jessica asked me. I nodded my head. "Yes. I am very happy. You know ...you really didn't need to do all of this. You should have just left Naya alone!" I told Jessica. "You....you have no idea how much I love you! Despite how many times you trample on the feelings that I have for you, I refuse to care about it. I just want to be with you. And yet you treat me like this! You even dared to kidnap me! Let me just make it clear to you, Rowan. You are never going to get Naya back. You are going to find out that you're making a big mistake. The King will never let you take the only person who can save the life of his daughter!" Jessica told me.I rolled my eyes at her. "Do you really think that I care about whoever you are working for? It's none of my busines, and it would have been great as long as you had left my wife out of it. You only h
NAYA I lay on the bed weakly as I watched my blood being made into an antidote for the so called princess. She had looked weak when she first walked in, but now that she had taken the antidote, she looked a whole lot better. The princess smiled at Liam. "Thank you so much for saving my life, Liam. I really don't know what I would have done without you. If it wasn't for your efforts all of these years, I am sure that I would have died a long time ago. I am really really happy that I have you in my life!" She said.I wanted to throw up when I heard this. I had never felt this disgusted in my life before. Liam had a sweet smile on his face, and he looked like he was happy to be doing this. I was shaking in anger as I watched him. How dare this person?! He was using my blood to appease someone else! I noticed that Liam had never looked at me the way that he was looking at the princess. He had never been nice to me. I was sure that he did not treat even Sophie in this way. Was this
ROWAN"Are you sure that she is in here?" I turned to ask Sophie. We were standing in front of a house that was in the middle of nowhere. It was an old neighborhood and I was sure that they were less than ten people who lived here. The people who lived here were also probably extremely old and so even if anything had been going on, I was sure that they won't have been able to notice. Sophie nodded her head"Yes. Do you think that I am lying? I did what you asked me to do. I followed him and this was where he came to," Sophie said. I glanced at Henry and he walked with me into the house. I was about to walk in when Sophie grabbed my arm. "Hey where do you think you are going? We aren't done talking here. You said that you are going to pay me a hundred thousand dollars as long as I got the information on where she lived for you. I did that. When are you paying me?" Sophie asked me. "We haven't found Naya yet. As soon as we find her, I am going to give you your money!" I told her f
NAYA The door was pushed open and my eyes flew open immediately. "Who is there? Jessica? You are back? Let me out of here. Let me go as soon as possible. You are not going to get away with doing this. You are going to regret ever don't this to me. Let me go if you know what's good for you!" I snapped at her. When she didn't reply me, I continued. "Rowan is going to find you, and he is going to make sure that you pay for doing this to me. Don't think that you can get away with this. Even if you keep me here for the rest of my life or even kill me, he's never going to look at you. He doesn't love you. Why is it so hard for you to understand that? I am the one that he loves! Only me!" I stated. "Oh really? You are the only one that Rowan loves? Are you sure about that? Are you really so confident about his feelings for you?" I heard a familiar voice ask me just then. I would recognize that voice even if I was dead. The voice that had haunted me in both lifetimes..Liam! Liam was he
LIAM"What? You went out to meet with him? Are you stupid?!" I yelled at Jessica over the phone. "Well, Rowan called me and he told me that he wanted to see me. He even booked a table at a restaurant. I thought that he had come back to his senses and he had seen that I was the better choice for him. But when I got there, all he did was talk about Naya. I think he knows that I am the one who kidnapped her, but he doesn't have any proof at all. He even knows that I met with yon. What am I going to do?" Jessica asked me. She sounded like she was panicking. .I just rolled my eyes. I had no idea why I was surrounded by all of these dumb women. I thought that Sophie was the worst that I would have to deal with and that since Jessica worked for the King, she would be smart at least. But once it involved the man that she was interested in, she had no brains. She was just so fucking stupid! "Do you really think that he'd come running back to your arms a day after Naya went missing? You
ROWAN "Are you sure that Jessica is working for the Alpha? If she's the one working for him then...it means that she's the one who has been spying on us. When she came here and said that she wanted to take care of you that time ..it was because she wanted to spy on you," Henry said to me. Sophie was gone now. It didn't take much for me to persuade her to find out where Liam had taken Naya. "Yes. I am sure of it. She's definitely working for that person. She has been working for him for a really long time, I am sure. If Liam is talking to her about him then it means that they both know him," I said."Then what are you going to do now? Are you sure that it's a good idea to meet with her? I don't think that she's going to give anything away if she's really working for him," Henry said. I shook my head. "I have to try. I know that she won't tell me the truth but I have to meet her and ask her and see if she's going to let anything slip. I asked Sophie to find out from Liam where Naya
ROWAN"I don't deny that she was good to me while we were best friends, but how am I supposed to make a living if I don't have any money? I can't take chances, Rowan. I need to survive. You will never know how hard it is for me to survive. I don't want to beat around the bush with you. So are you going to give me the money or not?" She asked me. "Fine. I will give it to you. And don't think about playing tricks with me, Sophie. Because there are many ways I can get this money back from you. And I don't think that you are going to survive what I do to get the money back if you play me," I warned her. "Don't worry about it, Rowan. I may be a terrible person but I am very honest when it comes to doing business. Besides, I don't want to die. I need to be alive to spend the money," she stated. I brought out my bank book and I wrote her a cheque. Sophie snatched it away from me. She gasped when she saw the price that was written on it. They were literally dollar signs falling out of h
ROWANI turned to Henry. "What do you mean you still can't find her? It's not as if she disappeared off the face of the Earth? Why can't you find her?" I yelled at him. A whole day had passed since Naya had not returned home. At first, Henry had said that she was going out to meet a friend, but then she didn't come back yesterday and we still can't find her today. I was really worried now. Had Liam gotten to her? Did he kidnap her all because of her blood? "Did you find out what Liam did yesterday?" I asked Henry. He nodded his head. "Yes. The person that we had watching him said that he didn't leave his house much yesterday. He went out to meet with the Alpha of the Crescent Moon Pack but that was just it. He didn't go anywhere else and he came back home immediately. I don't think he has anything to do with this," Henry said. I sneered at him. "Are you stupid?! Even if he didn't do anything, then he must have had someone do it for him! He must have told someone to kidnap her!
SOPHIEI gasped when I heard this. Was Liam saying that they had kidnapped Naya? I had no idea who that Jessica person was but from Liam's words, they had worked together to kidnap Naya. Liam ended the call and he burst out laughing. I quickly shut the door and started to pace around the bedroom, thinking of what to do. I did not want Liam to know that I had heard what he was talking about. I knew that he was an extremely cold man and if he taught that I knew a secret then he was going to do something to hurt me. I didn't want to die in Liam's hands. I just wanted to be able to survive. Just then the door was pushed open and Liam walked in. I turned to face him and we came face to face with each other. There was a menacing look on his face when he saw me and he looked like he wanted to just triangle it to death and be done with it "What the heck are you doing here Sophie? I thought I have told you that I don't want to see you in my house? and how were you even able to get in
