Alana’s POVI jolted awake, my heart pounding in my chest as i gasped for breath. Beads of sweat tricked down my body drenched in fear. My head feels heavy and my mind a blank space.Was i dead? somehow, I had expected my death to be painful and quick but instead, I find that i was rather comfortable and breathing. Is this what afterlife feels like?As the haze of sleep finally lifted from my eyes, I realized with a shocking jolt that i was lying on a soft surface and even covered with a warm fur. As i lay there trying to steady my racing heart beat and wondering where the hell I was, the room suddenly felt suffocatingly small. The walls seemed to be closing in on me.I needed air, space to breathe and make sense of the chaos that had consumed my life. Just as i attempted to swing my legs over the edge of the bed, two strangers, a male and a female entered the room, their presence both comforting and unsettling.The female held something that looked like a medicine kit, her express
Kai's POV All movement outside the hallway came to a halt as I walked by an towards the pack house. The death of my mate was still fresh on my mind and that means if could flip out at anytime. It’s a good thing the servant can see my mood and stay out of my path. I continued to strode purposefully towards the building occupied by most of our pack warriors. I knocked on the several closed doors with my fist as I passed by them to get their sleeping ass to come out. I'd be pissed more than I already am if am made to repeat myself to anyone if they miss my announcement tonight. Within a few minutes of waiting, everyone start to file out and into the corridor. Some in pairs unless for the unmated ones who came out alone and cranky. I stood up straighter, asserting my dominance over everyone else. “What’s going on, Alpha” one of the warrior had asked from the crowd, a very annoyed frown cresting his face as he and his mate who looked rather flustered had stood wrapped in each other em
Alana’s POVI heard someone calling out my name loud and clear. opening my eyes, I found that i was back on the bed with Beta Alex sitting beside me, his emerald green eyes alight with something unfamiliar. "Welcome back""What happened?""You lost consciousness" He told me. I swallowed a saliva. The last thing i remembered was eavesdropping on his conversation with Abigail. "Is it true that I'm really with child?"Alex nodded, "Abigail isn't just a physician, she has a way of knowing when a she wolf is with a pup so if she says you are then you really are"Hurricanes of emotions swirled within me as i tried to grasp the news of my current state. A part of me was happy that another being was growing within me but the other was not so happy. Everything was happening at the time where i could barely make sense of my situation. the emotions overwhelmed me like a whirlwind and i couldn't do anything except cry. "Do you know who the father is?"Kai is the father. He is the only man i
Alana’s POVThe intense yearning i was suddenly overcame with was growing even more rapidly like wildfire, I was overwhelmed with the sudden need to touch him, to be held by him and continued to have him close to me just like he currently was. The last time i had felt something this intense, it was with Kai and to realize that Alex could ignite the same excitement and hormonal rush in my wolf is something i could not understand unless of course, he was our second chance mate but how?As though he could read the question in my eyes, Alex leaned in closer "you feel that connection too don't you?"My eyes widen another inch, swallowing a saliva."I know you do sweet heart. I have been trying to resist the mate pull for a while now but not anymore" He explained calmly as though he was trying to sooth my raging heart but i couldn't help but look even more terrified. This can't be right, none of the things i was feeling was right. I can't be feeling this way, not right now as i desperatel
Alana’s POVInstead of helping me back on my feet, Alex placed his hands beneath my body, lifting me up in his arm, bridal style.His action startled me. I wasn't excepting him to carry me in his arms, maybe offer a hand but certainly not like this. But rather than feel uncomfortable in such close proximity, I found myself leaning into his chest some more, drowning in his intoxicating smell but the torture was that, I was trying not to enjoy it more than I should have.But the more I resisted, the more I felt drawn to all of it, feeling rather warm in his embrace and luring me in dangerously.Going out of the clinic, he led us steadily towards a totally different route. I had no idea where we were heading to but i immediately assumed it to be the Alpha's house, right where we had been summoned.Taking a break from my distracting thought, I looked beyond Alex broad chest shielding me and towards the surrounding. The view before me was almost surreal.Outside the pack was beautiful with
Alana's POVInstead of the pack clinic, Alex took us back to his house. It was a small cottage, not very far from the Alpha house. There wasn’t much to see but everything was neatly arranged in its place.I sat by the living space while Alex went to the kitchen to get me a glass of water. The meeting with Alpha Klaus had taken a toil on me somehow and Alex thought a glass of water might help.“Here you go” I grab the cup from his hand, thanking him. He settled beside me as I went ahead to finish my water.“Thank you for the water” I said and he nodded at me before helping me to place it away. I continue to stare at the cream painted walls, my mind replaying every thing that was said back at the Alpha’s house."All I want is to be here and support you, to stay by your side throughout this period of your pregnancy till you finally put to birth and also pending when you will recover your lost memory." He said looking at me and I nodded at the possibility of it all turning out for my good
Kai's POVDays have gone by since Nadia's pregnancy, I was so shocked and confused as to what to do when she told me about it. I wasn't expecting it. I wasn't even ready to be a father at this time. Just a moment of weakness is about to mess my life up forever. I never thought I would end up stuck with her. I had no feelings for her, if she wasn't pregnant she would have been dead by now. Because of her I had lost my mate, because of her lies I had rejected Alana and banished her. The sight of her irritated me to no end. How could I love such a woman? Or even talk of being the father to her unborn child. I wish there was a way to turn back the hands of time and fix all of this.

Alana's POVEarly the next morning, I got out of bed and decided to prepare breakfast before Alex could wake up. After i was done cooking and setting the table I walked back into the room to find him still sleeping soundly. I tapped him slightly over the shoulder to wake him up. He groan under his breath before looking up to face me. "Hey, Good morning," he said with a smile. "Good morning, Alex. Sorry for waking you up but breakfast is served" I said, returning his cheerful demeanor.His eyes moved pass the window and then back at me, a little frown appearing on his forehead, “You didn’t sleep well last night? I mean, you are suppose to be in bed not making breakfast”I smiled. “I slept well, just woke up hungry”“You should have woken me up instead, Kota”I shook my head at him, “I can Cook as well. So come on, let eat”"Alright, thank you so much," He said, allowing himself to be pulled out of bed and into the washroom.I waited at the dinning for his coming, so we could have our

Cameron's POVI felt a surge of emotions—euphoria, joy, and a hint of fear. I looked at Chase, my twin and co-alpha, and saw the same storm in his eyes. We were on the verge of becoming fathers.

KAI’S POV“Hey, little guy. Welcome to the family,” I whisper to my grandson, Kaiser, as I hold him in my arms. He’s so tiny and adorable, his fingers clutching mine just as tightly. He looks up at me with his big, beautiful blue eyes, the same color as his mother’s.“Look at him, Alana. Isn’t he perfect?” I say this to Alana, the grandmother of my child. She’s standing next to me, her hand on my arm, leaning over to get a glimpse of his face as well. She nods, her eyes misty with tears of joy.“Of course he is, Kai. He’s just so adorable and perfect.

ALANA’S POVI felt the agony of each passing day, as if a knife were twisting in my chest. I couldn’t stop thinking about Kai, the man who had marked me as his mate and then vanished without a trace. Days have passed since his departure, and there’s still been no news from him. The people await his return as eagerly as I do.

ALANA’S POV“Father went home because he had things to do there, but he promised to be back. He will return soon," Cameron answered. I nodded at his words, but my heart was squeezing painfully, as if someone had wrapped a tight band around it. I tried to swallow the lump that formed in my throat, but it only made me feel more choked up. My eyes burned with fresh tears that threatened to spill over, but I refused to let them fall. I didn't want to show any weakness or vulnerability. I wanted to be strong—for myself and my children.Within me, I felt anything but strong. I was broken, shattered, and hollow. The room seemed to spin around me, amplifying a profound sense of loss. Kai’s absence had left a void in my soul like never before. He had been the one to mark me as his mate, and he had left me again. He might have promised to return, but his departure was still a silent goodbye, and it hurt more than any spoken words could. The pain was more intense than when he first rejected
