Chapter 78. ReeneI squinted, trying to block the fierce rays of the sun that burned brightly from the window. I turned the other way, groaning and wrapping my hands around him. The soft light that shone into the room gave off a warm glow on the room. Kaden and I were wrapped around each other, cuddling and relishing the warmth that we not provided. We were still cuddling when a knock sounded on the door. I knew who was there before Kaden got up to answer the door. I could sense my mother's aura immediately. Kaden immediately walked towards the door and opened it. They strode in, looking very serious and seemed to have something important to say to us. I forced myself up from the bed, feeling a dull pain on my back. The pain had been there since I came back from the Pack hospital. I couldn't help but sense that something bad was going to come out of this. I only had to wait and find out what was going on. "Good morning, mother." I greeted, smiling as I got up an
Chapter 79 Kaden The D-day came a week later. And we were on our way back to Germany. The airport was bustling with a lot of activities as our departure from the Hezen Pack gradually came to a close. There was a bit of nostalgia in the air as we left the place, it reminded me of something, something I couldn't quiet grasp. I couldn't tell if it was some sort of Deja vu or if it was the petrichor-like smell in the air. But for some reason I felt quite happy and fulfilled. The memories of the battles we had won as a team came running in and out of my mind. The death of Denniosn and that of the other witches, it all made me very fulfilled. At least they wouldn't be facing any sort of danger except occasional rogues that trespassed the boundary or those who were strong enough to fight the guards at the boundary. A smile escaped my lips as I thought about all our exploits as a family, I couldn't be any happier. I looked back, and caught sight of my loved ones who were aro
Chapter 80. Reene“You good, babe?” Kaden asked yet again. I nodded, in response.The journey to the Redwood Pack was quite an uneventful one but there was no doubt it was filled with excitement and a bit of apprehension. I kept staring out the window, as I battled with my thoughts about the angst of the future. My overhanging and spiked emotions were all because of my pregnancy hormones and the memories of my past life. They still came back to haunt me even though it had happened a long time ago. I had always wished there was a way to wash off those memories from my head but it was practically impossible especially when I had to remember what my mission was, eliminating Alpha Dennison and getting back my life. I was glad that I was able to get through that phase and now I was going through the peripherals, I thought. Things that were just there to give more meaning to my life. A week had already passed since Kaden and I returned from Hezen. Everything was going r
Chapter 81 Reene"What else could you have wanted me to do? So what? You think I'm just going to let you leave me here? I knew I had to do something about it and that's why I had no other choice."My work as the Alpha began quickly enough. Kaden wasn't clearly happy with what I had done but there was nothing else I could do about it. He shook his head, a frustrated look on his face. "And why didn't you tell me about it? We could have told your father about the plan and we could have sought their advice about this, but you just went right ahead and gave them your word." He said, looking like he was going to walk out anytime soon. That was his own problem because he had told the people what was going to happen. My word was final. "So what did you want me to do, tell them what I had in mind so you could look for a way to find another alternative before the right time. I'm sorry but I actually got the idea on our way to the Pack. So it's not something I've been harbour
Chapter 82. Kaden I squinted, trying to escape the vile wind that was furiously lashing at me but it was useless. I fell on my knees as I tried to get rid of the dust that had entered my eye. "F*ck!" I groaned, cursing as the pain of the dust in my eyes got more profound. I wondered why this was happening at such a time like this, was this the work of a witch? Had Dennison and Zemirah's evil sister returned. That wasn't possible? I thought, but with what was going on, there was no doubt that something like this was surely something they could do. The atmosphere around me was very thick with tension and I was so scared as I knelt there, trying to get back on my feet and find out what had befallen us. Reene was nowhere in sight, only my guards who were running around and getting struck. The chaps had gotten more and more intense and none of us had been able to do something to get rid of this situation. I soon started a deafening roar in the distance when I finally go
Chapter 83 ReeneSitting at the dining table, I kept wondering when Kaden would be back to join me. He had left abruptly as he had some Pack matters to attend to but the problem was that I wanted him to be close to me these days. Lately, he was out late taking care of one thing or the other. I wondered how long he was going to keep getting distracted, dealing with a whole lot of stuff. And my primal worry was the things that caused those problems. The other day, he had said that a part of the boundary had been breached but thankfully the incident wasn't dire as those that had breached the boundary had been caught and taken care of. He had sent them out, threatening to kill them if they ever tried to repeat what they had done. But as the days went by, more and more problems continued to arrive. I wondered when it would all be taken care of. I just hoped everything would be addressed very soon. My mother kept watching the tired look on my face as I stared down at the t
Chapter 84. KadenI wiped away the bead of sweat that had gathered in my forehead as I stared into space. I was getting more and more bored by the amount of work that I had to attend to each day. Every single day I got tons of letters from Packs about things they needed and I had to get back to them, but somehow it seemed to keep getting bigger and bigger as the days went by. I wondered why there was such a big amount of requests that were waiting to board me each day. Most of the letters were quite useless while there were some ones among them that could be of use. So I had to sort out the weed from the meaningful ones and in the prices so doing that, I got caught up with work, and because of that I spent a lot of time in the office as I went through them. I had just been summoned by my guards and we had received more and more requests. My face fell instantly and Reene, who saw the look on my face knew what it was. "Don't tell me you're going back to that office a
Chapter 85. Reene Even after what felt like an hour I was still in shock after I had seen Mateo standing beside me. The disbelief and the fear still held onto me like a leech. "Why... are you doing this?" I asked, very intent on finding out his reason for this evil. He didn't even seem any remorseful for what he was doing, he looked very confident like his actions were way more more justified. I just hoped that this wasn't what I thought it was because if it was, then I was fucked. But instead of giving me an explanation for his actions, Mateo laughed instead. It was the kind of laugh that caused chills to run down your spine. I could feel the hairs at the back of my neck stand up. He leaned closer towards me, no atom of reverence in his face as he did it. There was this evil intent that filled his eyes as well. "Well, Kaden is too young to rule, so you both will have to learn it the hard way, maybe when I'm done with you, you will all acknowledge the fact. Kaden
Epilogue. Reene The morning was bustling with excitement but there was no doubt that it had a touch of chaos to it. Everyone was trying to leave for the wedding and with Kaden getting on my nerves, I had no idea if we were going to be able to catch up with the wedding service. I needed to be there before the wedding so I could talk to her and offer the advice I could. I stopped for a while, listening for a footstep but i heard none. I was beginning to simmer. "Honey! We are going to be late! Come on." I yelled, shaking my head. Amber was soon running down the stairs. "Where's your brother?" I asked, stretching my hand across the stairs to stop her from running. "And please don't run down the stairs anymore, okay?" I said to her, giving her a gentle pat on the cheeks. She nodded before replying. "He's with daddy." I glanced down at the luggage. There were no guards in sight to help me with it so i just had to wait until Kaden was down. He had always complained ab
Chapter 94. ReeneMy heart jumped, the moment I saw Amber stumble. She was outside playing with Ichabod and something had bumped her tiny feet.Thankfully she was able to steady herself before she bolted off again in full tilt, her tiny legs carrying her with boundless energy. "Goddess." I muttered, knowing I had to go get her immediately before something worse happened. I quickly stood up from the window side where I was seated. "She's just like his father, they never rest. You should let her. " My mother said, smiling the moment she knew what was happening. "I'm not taking the chance mother." I said, hurrying towards the door before she said something else to stop me. I could hear her laughter as I walked through the passageway, en route to the outside. A tender smile crossed my face the moment I saw Ichabod running after her. They were chasing a butterfly and the moment she caught it, they admired it for a while, the laughter ceasing. She flashed a grin the moment
Chapter 93. Reene It finally arrived. The day I'd become Kaden's wife officially. My nerves tingled with anticipation and excitement as the stylists scurried around me, each performing the specific tasks they had been employed to carry out. I had been dreaming of this day, ever since he mated me, it would seal the relationship between Kaden and I forever. I could feel nimble fingers brushing my hair as my makeup was being applied. "Your hair is absolutely gorgeous." Jane, the blonde hairdresser complimented, but I knew it was a hyperbole. My hair was great, but absolutely gorgeous? No. "We are thinking of weaving in some braids, what do you think?" She asked, the rest of her words were carried by a loud bang that emanated from the door as another stylist walked into the room. "I'd love the braids, be fast about it though. We don't have all day." I said, admiring my hair hair the mirror. "And your makeup, I am thinking of a soft, smoky look." "Just do your thing Jan
Chapter 92. ReeneMy eyes fluttered open and the world gradually began to come into focus. I tried to sit up but the pain in the lower half of my stomach reminded me that it was best to stay still for now. My mind was still clogged with what happened before I fell asleep and as the memories started to rush in I couldn't help but be emotional. I remember everything from how Kaden had successfully rescued me from the hands of Mateo and how the contraction had begun and how I had passed out as soon as we got back to the park. I had no idea of how everything else happened but I guess we were here. My mind was still filled with lots of thoughts and I could not think straight at the moment. That was the moment something struck my mind. "Kaden? Is he in danger?" I asked myself, remembering how Mateo had ordered his men to have him shot. My thoughts were just a jumbled mess and I couldn't quite piece everything together. That was the moment I turned my head to my right and to
Chapter 91. KadenI was standing face-to-face with Mateo and I knew right there and then that the moment had come. The air was filled with anticipation and as I looked back at my men. I knew that they were going to do everything to make sure that my mate was safe. They were all carrying their weapons, ready to carry out my orders if I gave any. The fate of my mate was in the balance, and I knew that any little mistake could cause everything to crash down, so I was going to make sure that we took this gently, considering the kind of evil person that Mateo was. There was no doubt that he could do everything as long as he got what he wanted and in dealing with such kind of people you had to be very careful. We continued to stare at each other for a while and the gears continued to turn in my head while I thought about what I was going to do to him. I prayed for a brain wave, something that would have me attack him before he even knew what was going on. But I also suspected
Chapter 90. Kaden The only sound that could be heard in the room was the clashing of sword against sword as we prepared to embark on our journey to rescue Reene. We made sure to get everything ready and inspect if there was anything we were leaving behind thankfully there was nothing remaining. The morning had been a very restless one since the mysterious man had interrupted our breakfast with the spine-chilling news. At this moment I still remembered how the man had run into the room with a very worried look on his face. After that he claimed that he had zeen Reene being abducted and taken into a cave in the northmost part of the woods. We had all stopped eating in shock because this was the second time that it was happening. The first time it had happened, the men had killed themselves, and now this. The only mistake I had made was thinking that this was going to be a different situation, but in the end, it turned out to be wrong. The other descriptions that he
Chapter 89. ReeneNot long after the incident a group of men brought a plate of food and dropped it in front of me. Before leaving the room they all made sure to say one wild thing or the other just to make sure that I was disheartened. I wondered what they gained from making me uncomfortable not minding the situation that I have found myself in. I wondered how things would turn out in the next few days now that I have been caught. I instinctively knew that their punishment was going to be very bad. But I knew I had to endure the whole thing until I was rescued from this horrible cave. After making fun of me, the men began to walk out of the room once they began hearing footsteps. I knew it was Mateo but actually he did not come anywhere near the room. I sat there in the darkness and the silence staring at the place of food on the floor. They had tied my hand just to make sure I ate in the most degrading way possible. My heart was filled with hatred and anger as
Chapter 88. Kaden I was seated in the dining room and despite the noise that was going on around me I was so lonely and felt like a ghost. The room was filled with the aroma of freshly prepared food but I knew that eating we just felt like I was pouring ashes into my own mouth. I could not eat because my heart was shattered. I looked up again at the table to see the pastries, grapes and all other sorts of food that was scattered around it because none of it appeared to me at all. I could not eat because my heart was filled with guilt and the Guilt no matter how much I tried to state a side continued to gnaw at me from the inside. It felt as though I was being ripped apart from inside because how could I sit here and try to eat while my mate and my unborn child were in the captivity of an enemy who I knew nothing about. The worst part of the whole thing was that the enemy who had abducted my maids had not offered any kind of Ransom and it was clear that they wanted he
Chapter 87. Reene My days in captivity were getting more and more endless and I had no idea when this nightmare that I could not escape would finally come to an end. Every morning that I woke up in this dank, damp cave, my confidence that I would be rescued one day gradually waned. With each passing day my cope gradually chipped away into the Dark void that awaited me. I had done everything possible to use my powers and use them against my cactus but none of it worked. Even my wolf had not been active at all. I had done everything to communicate with my wolf but it seemed impossible. It was at this point that I knew that I was alone and that I had to even put more effort and make sure that I got out of this place. But with my condition, I wondered how that was going to be possible. The fact that it was going to be very hard scared me more than anything else because I couldn't bear the thought of complications. So I just had to keep my eyes Sharp and wait for t
