Wendy's POV

As soon as George answered my call, I could tell something was wrong on the other end. He was breathing slowly, carefully - not calm, but like he was about to blow up. I tried to sound cheerful and friendly, acting like I didn't notice how angry he was and how hard he was trying not to lose his temper.

“Hello.” I said to him, trying to sound friendly even though he couldn't see me. “I was hoping to run into you.”

His response was brief, almost rude. “Wendy.”

No introductions. No small talk. Him using my first name said a lot - it was friendly and mean at the same time, showing how upset he was. I ignored the awkward feeling in the air and kept going.

“I'm glad you picked up.” I said, acting like I didn't hear how strained his voice sounded. “I - I wanted to talk to you.”

He laughed quietly on the other end, and though it was soft, the mocking in it was clear. “Talk?” he said again, his voice firm. “Isn't that what we're doing now?”

I bit back my retort, suppressing the spa

    Wendy’s POVWhen George angrily left the restaurant, his boots making a loud noise on the ground, I didn’t go after him. I stayed in my seat, holding my wine glass tightly. The anger he felt was still in the air, but I didn’t let it affect me. His angry words kept playing in my mind, hurting me with each one.I shook my head to clear it and took a slow drink. George was acting like a kid - reckless and silly. Didn't he get how bad Queen Rosina and her son Gerald were? Did he think this was just about a small feud or a chance to become popular?“No, George.” I said quietly, putting the glass down. “This isn't about you or your pride. It's about staying safe. About what's fair.”The thought of tonight's dinner made me nervous. I had to be there. It wasn't just a rule to have a big meal for a visiting leader it was a chance to get information, to get closer to Leader Sirius, to find out where Rosina and Gerald were hiding. But George made it clear - I wasn't invited to dinner tonight. No

    I had just gotten back to the pack house and was trying to catch my breath when I got a message. There was a loud knock at my door, and before I could say anything, a guard stuck his head in.“Your Highness, Alpha Sirius and his group have just arrived at the gates.” the guard told me with a low bow. His voice was calm, but there was a hidden urgency in the way he spoke.I pushed back my chair, the leather creaking under me. For years, I'd kept a calm face as the Alpha King, but something about Sirius' visit made me feel excited and nervous inside. I grabbed my jacket from the back of my chair and walked towards the door.As I walked up the big steps of the pack house, I heard the loud engines of Sirius' cars. Black SUVs, a typical choice for a visiting leader, stopped on the driveway in front of the house.The dark windows sparkled in the late afternoon sun, and after a moment, the doors opened at the same time. Men in suits got out - Sirius' second-in-command, some bodyguards, and f

    George's POVWhen I saw her, it felt like all the air left the room, and I got really angry. Wendy Ashton, or Whitney Decodes as she calls herself now, stood at the entrance of the big hall, looking confident and bold.Her red dress fit her body tightly, showing just enough to be tempting, and the high slit was daring. She wasn't just being brave - she was trying to make an impression. I could sense it, like my instincts were warning me.I stayed calm - or at least tried to - in front of the important guests. Standing up from the fancy chair that looked like a throne, I said excuse me, and didn't hide my unhappy face. My voice was loud enough to be heard over the quiet talk, “Have fun at the party. I'll be back soon.”I walked down the stairs to where she was standing, her eyes fixed on me with a annoying smile on her face. She was already getting on my nerves. I reached her in a few big steps, and before she could say anything, I grabbed her wrist tightly, pulling her near. The surpr

    George's POVAlpha Sirius sat across from me, his sharp eyes staring at my face. His voice was calm but serious, showing how important this was to him. I swirled the wine in my glass, pretending to be interested as he started talking about working together between his Moonlight Pack and my Shadow Fangs Pack.“My king.” Sirius said, choosing his words carefully, “if our packs work together, it would be a new start. The Moonlight Pack and Shadow Fangs would be the strongest team in the land. Think about combining our military power. Joining together is not just a good idea - it's going to happen.”He kept staring, but I didn't want to give him my full attention. I nodded, mostly to be polite, though my mind was only half-listening to what he said. Across the room, I saw Wendy sitting at a table. She was leaning her head towards Prince Derek, like he was telling her a really funny joke. Her laugh made me feel annoyed suddenly.“An alliance, huh?” I said distractedly, giving Sirius a quic

    Wendy's POVThe room's happy chatter and laughter stopped as two soldiers came in, their uniforms perfect but their faces serious. Their boots tapped against the marble floor, a big difference from the gentle music of the strings playing in the corner.My eyes naturally went to them as they walked right up to George. He was standing near the main table, his big shoulders stiff, talking to a group of friends. The soldiers bent in, said something to him, and I saw the quick flash of anger on his face.George's jaw clenched, his lips forming a tight line. He stopped for just a moment before walking quickly over to Sirius, the Alpha of the Moonlight Pack. I saw George lean in to whisper to Sirius, but their conversation was too quiet to understand. Sirius nodded once, his face showing no emotion, before George turned around and left with the soldiers.“Is everything okay?” Derek's voice brought me back to the table where I sat next to him. His handsome face was calm, but I saw a hint of c

    Wendy’s Point of ViewThe voices started quietly, like a gentle breeze in my ear. But as I focused on listening, they got clearer, and I could tell they were urgent - and private. My whole body tensed up. I'd learned a lot since entering this area, but this was different. Something made me think this was important. My gut feelings are usually right.Slowly, I bent down, the cool night air touching me. I stayed in the dark as I moved closer, making sure nobody saw me. The quiet talking was coming from behind the flowers, where big groups of wild roses blocked the view. I stood on my toes, breathing quietly and lightly as I held the small knife in my belt tightly. I wasn't going to let my guard down when Alpha Sirius was around.Looking around a low branch, I stopped. Two men were in the open area, their formal clothes showing they were Moonlight Pack guards. Guards who had taken Alpha Sirius into this area. My stomach got nervous. What was Sirius doing here, away from home, and so late

    Wendy’s POVI fixed the strap of my bag on my shoulder and took one last look at the house, which made me let out a deep breath. My foot was ready to take the first step away when I heard the sound of a car's tires scraping against the gravel. I stopped moving, my eyes squinting. It was George's car. His shiny black car stopped suddenly at the entrance, like an angry animal, and I could feel his intense energy from where I was standing.The car door shut really loud and the sound went through the whole area. George, or I should say, His Highness, got out and he was clearly very angry, his face all tense, his eyes looked even darker than normal, and he stared right at me like he was about to attack.Without saying hello, his voice broke the silence. “What did you do, Wendy?”My mouth opened, but I knew to wait - his anger needed calm, and my feeling told me to stay calm too. It wasn't mad I saw in him, it was fear hidden behind his angry face. He trusted me more than anyone, even if he

    Wendy's POVI stepped further into the room, feeling the heavy silence weighing me down. My eyes fixed on Rosina. Now, she looked... different. Her messy hair, dirty face, and quick movements made her seem wild and on edge, like she was searching for something.Her big, surprised eyes looked at me, but the shock only lasted a moment. Then, like a switch had been flipped, her face changed, twisting into a scowl. Under her breath, I could almost hear the disgust pouring out of her like poison. Anger. It came off her in waves, filling the room like a separate thing that wanted notice.“Wendy.” she said angrily, standing up straight to scare me. “What are you doing here?”I didn’t react, though her harsh words were meant to hurt. I was no longer the weak person she could bully. Calmly, I looked around the room—taking my time to let the awkwardness build between us. The mess was clear. Furniture was out of place. Drawers were open. Papers were scattered everywhere. It looked like someone h

The result kept flashing in my mind, over and over again, until it felt like it was carved into my skull.Pregnant.My hand drifted toward my stomach. A life—George’s child—growing inside me. I should have been freaking out more, panicking, but instead, I felt… numb.No part of me regretted it. Not really. But the weight of what this meant… that was the part I wasn’t ready to face yet.How was I supposed to tell George? Or was I even going to tell him at all?My phone buzzed beside me. I glanced at the screen. A message from George.George: Are you okay? Wendy, answer me.I sighed and tossed the phone aside. He wasn’t going to let this go. I know how relentless George can be especially when he suspects that something might be happening.I rested my head back on the bed, nothing was running through my mind. I stared at the ceiling, trying to know what to think f

    Wendy's POV "Why?"I was about to answer, but suddenly a strange wave of dizziness hit me. My head screamed."Wendy?" George stepped toward me. "Are you okay?"I forced a smile. "I'm fine."His eyes burned with concern. "You don't look fine.""I'm just…" The dizziness started again, and this time, it was followed by a twist in my stomach. I pressed a hand to my mouth as a wave of nausea climbed up my throat."Excuse me—" My voice broke as I turned away from him, practically running toward the bathroom in the conference room.I almost didn't make it to the sink when I was vomiting. My hands gripped the cold sink as my stomach was poured out , my body trembling.Behind me, I heard the door open. "Wendy?" George's voice was sharp with alarm. "What's …”"I'm fine," I said , choking, wiping my mouth with the back of my hand. "Just… give me a second."He didn’t listen. In a second, he was beside me, his hand brushing the hair away from my face. "This isn’t fine, Wendy. What’s wrong?"I sh

    Chapter 154.George's POV. She hung the call before I could say Jack.I picked my car key before I stormed out of my office, gaining attention from the staff, especially my secretary who was , at that time, in the office with me.The drive to the Peak Hotel felt longer because of the packed road. My hands tightened around the steering wheel as I drove through the traffic, my mind running with different thoughts. Wendy already knew. Of course, she knew. Nico and the others , I should have known they wouldn't be able to keep up the act for long."Shit," I muttered under my breath as I pulled into the hotel's driveway. The valet approached, but I waved him off and parked the car myself. My heart was hammering as I stepped into the hard floor of the hotel, the soft hum of music didn't help with the situation, I just felt sick to my stomach.Conference room A2B. I knew exactly where it was.I spotted her the moment I pushed the door open. Wendy stood at the window, arms crossed, her b

    Wendy's POV.I stood in front of Peak Hotel, taking my time to admire the luxurious building while the valet left to park my car.When he returned the keys to me, I exhaled sharply before I entered the hotel.Conference room A2B. I really hope I get it in the nick of time.Minutes later, which is still in my favor, I was standing behind the mahogany door, inhaling and exhaling.I hated to admit how nervous I was. And anyone in this situation will probably be more nervous than I am. The investors are not just investors, they are big in the industry.For them to have picked my business to invest in, I must not mess anything up. And God help me with that.I wondered why they're not public, but I knew they couldn't care less.Hesitantly, I got myself to knock.“Come in,” a timbre voice said. I opened the door. a short gasp fell out of my mouth.The first thing that took my breath was the floor-to-ceiling windows that were as clear as air.In the middle of the room sat a long ebony table g

    Wendy's POV.I was going to leave. But I have to close an important deal, before I hand over my business to an expert.Yes, I was planning to leave it all and go, and that's how my meek revenge plan went.I will leave till I hear the news, that maybe one of them is out of the way – either in prison or…who knows.That's how weak I am, I'm not taking revenge, am running from revenge, hoping someone will take it for me.I was deep in my thoughts when someone interrupted me.“Berlin,” I called.I eyed the man in front of me. He was in a corporate wear of suit pants and ironed out shirt.“Any news?” I asked, knowing he wouldn't be here if there was no news.He nodded. I gestured for him to continue.“Apparently Alpha George had a blow match with Beta Edward,” he reported.Immediately my eyes squeezed shut as I took in the information.“Was anyone hurt?” I pushed further.“The angle it was taken from showed it vividly,” he said as he showed me the picture.I zoomed in on it and my heart s

    Wendy's POV.My fingers traced the thick rim of the wine glass while I waited for him in the same grand restaurant I have always wanted to go.I knew he would want an explanation. Or maybe just something to let him know he's in his right senses.And he is, but I'm not.As my focus drifted , I let George linger in my mind – his touch, his warmth…everything.A sharp knock on the table pulled me from my thoughts.George appeared with a wide smile but I maintained a straight face. He looked dejected at that instance and of course, I beat myself up for it.“Why did you leave? – I thought you were ready to stay,” he finally said after a long, uncomfortable moment of silence.“It was just a fling and you know that,” I said almost immediately, like I had practiced my response. I bit my inner cheeks. I don't want to sound harsh to him.“Really? But I'm not ready to call anything a fling with you,” he said, his face dripping with determination.I sucked in. How am I going to make it clear to h

    Chapter 150.Wendy's POV. The golden light filtered into the bedroom, directly into my eyes.My eyes immediately squinted as they made contact with the streaks of sunlight. I turned over to the other side and I saw him, still sound asleep.The events of the previous day played in my head like a perfectly working CD, and a blush crept up my face.I was still naked, given that I was undressed after the warm but not near innocent bath.It was the best sex I have ever had, with George of course because we both wanted to savor the moment and take everything it has to offer. To be honest, i didn't rethink or regret my decision as at yesterday. But now that I'm awake and he's not, I feel I need a moment to know what's next.It's definitely a topic we would still discuss, and I don't think I'm ready to make our ‘fling’ more than that.All I want in my life for now is for my business to thrive. I know it's already among the top three, but still I want more.Whitney Decodes must be a worldwi

    Chapter 149.Wendy's POV.He was taking too much time outside with Brittany.I didn't tell him it was Brittany because I was scared to see his reaction. What if he didn't look as angry as I wanted him to be?.When he opened the front door, I turned back from the staircase.I loathed to admit but yes, I was eavesdropping.And I heard everything. The point where Brittany called me a girl to the point he defended me, saying I'm the woman he loves.Still, I was feeling both emotions. Jealousy and happiness.Jealousy that Brittany was standing in his front and I know she won't keep her hands to herself.And happiness that he finally spelt it out to her how important he said I am to him.As he left his final words and turned to enter, I quickly ran into hiding.He sat on the couch, fuming.I gently walked towards him, “You're fuming,” I said behind him and he immediately looked back.Terror was written on his face and he walked to the back of the chair where I was.“You’re here,” he said an

    Chapter 148.Wendy's POV.He immediately caught me, and we found ourselves in an awkward position.His knees were bent to support mine and his arms wrapped around my shoulder - my back to be precise.Only that I can't afford to be precise at this moment. My chest kept threatening to erupt and I could feel his calculated breathings.Everything was not normal, and the casual air seemed to be replaced with tension - sexual tension.After what seemed like eternity, he detached his arms slowly and carefully, but as I was about steadying myself, his hands slip and I fell butts flat on the floor.“Fuck, are you okay?” he exclaimed immediately crouching down to my level.He touched my arm in a bid to apologize but I shook under his touch which made him retract immediately.“I'm sorry,” he said, standing up from the floor.He reached out his hand and I took it hesitantly. I dusted my clothes immediately and I was back on my feet.“It was a mistake, I know,” I said and he nodded, pinching his f
