Ella's POV"How do I look?" I asked, standing before the mirror and turning in front of Kevin."You look amazing." Kevin replied. "This is the fourth dress you've worn today, Ella."He sounded exasperated but I couldn't blame him. He was right. I had been changing my outfit since as I was nervous of the what was going to happen today. He was wrong though. This wasn't the fourth dress I'd worn today. This was the tenth dress I had worn today as I had tried other dresses before he walked into my bedroom."Tenth." I confessed.His eyes widened in shock at my confession. "Tenth? Why?""I want to impress your father."He sighed. "You don't have to do that, Ella. I'm sure dad wouldn't mind about what you wear.""Are you sure?" I asked, feeling nervous. I was afraid that he was saying that so I could leave on time as we were getting late. It remained only an hour before we had to see his father.He moved closer to me, pulling me into his arms and folded his hand around my waist. "You are bea
Ella's POVNo matter how much I felt like I belonged here, there was always going to be a glitch and Maya was it. She was the oddity in the bliss I felt in my heart at the moment and the ruin of my happy ending.I sighed as I walked past her, wondering how long I was going to avoid her. I was grateful we didn't have to meet much but there was no how I wouldn't run into her. An instance was today when I was taking a stroll across the street to stretch my limbs. I hissed at the sight of her, wishing I had taken the stroll in my house if I had known that I would run into her.I shook my head at the thought the moment I had it. I couldn't keep running from her and avoiding her. We were bound to come close one day and the earlier we had this confrontation, the better for us.Moreover, I was the Luna of the pack and it was high time that I began to act like one. This land was as much as mine as it was Kevin's and it didn't make sense that I have to let her make me feel insecure about it. If
Ella's POVI was preparing for bed that same night when I heard a knock on the door. I frowned as I got up from the bed and walked towards the door, wondering who it was. Kevin had gone with the soldiers manning the border to strengthen the security.He had left before daybreak and I hadn't seen him today and wasn't expecting him. He wasn't expected to be here tonight. I wondered who else was at the door as I couldn't think of anyone that could be at the door but curiosity wouldn't let me stay in my room I had sent Amanda to bed earlier and there wasn't anyone else I could think of.I gasped as I opened the door and saw Kevin standing right there. My second gasp was swallowed in his throat as he pulled me forward, kissing my lips in a passionate lip lock. He moved in, closed the door behind him and kept on kissing me.I breathed when he finally let go of me. "I wasn't expecting you tonight.""I haven't seen you today." He breathed, leading me towards the bed and pulled me on his laps
Ella's POVI looked around the clinic and sighed, stretching my limbs. It had been a productive day and I was relieved that there were no more patients in the clinic.Starting the business had been a good idea and I was overjoyed everyday, knowing I had something more to contribute to the pack than a regular Luna.Kevin was coming home this evening and I was excited about seeing him. My body still throbbed and I fondly remembered how he had made love to me days ago. It had been sweet and passionate at the same time that it had brought tears to my ears. It still brought tears to my eyes at the thought of it and I blinked back the impending tears.I decided to take a walk in the garden I had cultivated behind the clinic to keep myself busy since there was no one there. It was getting late as well and I didn't think anyone would come. I locked up the clinic and walked towards the garden.It didn't take long before I realized that I wasn't alone. I heard Kevin's name and decided not to gi
Luke's POVFather had finally forgiven me and let me out of the house arrest that he had given me. I guessed he didn't see the need to keep me grounded since Ella had gone, left with her mate.I was furious and sad when I heard that she had left but it left a bitter taste in my mouth when I knew that she had left with Kevin and was now living with him. It didn't matter how many sugar cubes or sweet cookies I ate, I couldn't get rid of the bitter taste in my mouth.I hated that she belonged to me now but there was nothing I could do about it again. I wondered if they had gotten mated already. Kevin seemed like he would have loved to get mated to her yesterday when they were here.I couldn't even act out if she was still with us and it was a hassle to know I had to be on my best behavior after the stunt I had pulled. I had no doubt that my father had people watching me and I had to give them something good to report about me or I was going back to detention in my room which was the last
Kevin's POVA year after the death of the roguesI was anxious. I was nervous. I was afraid. My palms were all sweaty. I had never been so afraid, nervous and sweaty in my life, not even when I was facing death. I was always confident in battles, ready to strike and be struck at but at the moment, I wanted to pass out, afraid of watching the horrifying scene playing out in front of me and I also wanted to be tough and stay and watch what was going on. I would hate myself if I passed out and find out that I've missed everything good that would happen here.Yeah, that was it. I had to be tough. I had to stick it out and be tough no matter how I felt. It felt like my heart was going to jump out of my throat any moment from now."What is wrong with you, Kevin?" I muttered under my breath to remind myself to be strong. I couldn't afford to be like this. Ella needed me to be strong and it would be a shame if I was the weakling."Did you say something?" One of the nurses helping Ella asked a
Ella's POVTwo years after the death of the roguesThey were triplets. I couldn't forget the pain I had gone through while bringing them into this world but that didn't diminish how much I loved them. I loved the three boys as much as I loved my life and I would do anything to protect them. I would do anything to protect this family I had, their father inclusive.I could finally understand why my mother had been willing to sacrifice all she had then anytime I was in danger. I had thought that she was being reckless but it was motherly love and being overprotective comes with the full package. There was nothing reckless about it. A mother choosing to protect her children rather than saving herself wasn't reckless but full of love.I could relate with it now that I had the experience and knew that it had nothing to do with recklessness. I had more respect for my mother at that moment than I had ever had for her even though my respect for her when she was alive was a lot. Tears sprang to
Ella's POVSix years after the death of the rogues"No! Don't do that." I screamed as I ran towards the triplets.I sighed as they ran away from me, chuckling. I ran after them and they kept on running, laughing and turning it into play. They dispersed into different directions and I shook my head, wondering who I was going to run after. They were naughty boys but I couldn't love them less.A maid moved towards me and bowed. "Your highness, lunch is ready."I nodded. "Good. We will join you shortly." I shouted to the boys when the maid was gone. "Let's go have lunch, boys.""Not now, mummy." Neo replied."We aren't hungry." Nathan added."Maybe later, mummy."I smiled. They were only five but they knew what they wanted and never hesitated to tell me what they wanted. That was a good trait for kids but exceptionally good for alphas to be. I hated that I was thinking this way but I had to start facing the truthRegardless of how I thought of the kids and how overprotective I was of them
