ROSHIDA

I didn't hear when she said it.

“You should be grateful that you are still in this house. The Luna would have kicked you out back where you came from. You're nothing to me. You're despicable and you're disgusting.”

He didn't even give Kelly the chance to say something for herself or retaliate.

He slapped Sophia, hard across the face that Sophia fell to the floor. I was stunned for a moment. I couldn't process what had just happened.

“How dare you speak to her that way? Don't you know she's my wife to be? She's the next Luna of this pack and you are nothing but a dirty slave. Apologise to her now.”

I saw the tears in Sophia's eyes and that was all it took. Along with the anger I had pent up, I slapped him back. Just as hard.

This time around, he wasn't the only one dazed. Both he and Kelly took steps back in awe as I helped Sophia off the floor.

It was bad enough that he was treating me like this but I won't let him lay a finger on Sophia.

    ROSHIDAKelly spoke up before he had the chance to come out of his daydream.“What did you just say? You want him to beg you? He would rather die. Why does he have to beg you for money? Both of you are married, that money belongs to him too.”I had caught her.“So do you finally admit that we are married?”She turned pale, not being able to say anything else.“Well, what I was saying was-”“Shut up, Kelly.”Grace joined in.“Yes, shut up Kelly. Roshida, you have to understand that he has his pride to protect as an Alpha. I mean, I'm begging you already. Isn't that enough? Both of you are married, no one can deny that. So just help your husband out.”This woman was so two-faced.She was the same one raining curses on me every other day but today when she wanted to beg for my money, her voice was calm.Fiona didn't say anything and she just stayed back and watched all that happened.Felix finally spoke up.“You want me to beg you?

    ROSHIDASince they couldn't do anything to me, they decided to go for the one thing that they could touch.My reputation.I was in the room when Sophia ran in.“You won't believe what is going around the village about you.”Actually, I didn't care but she seemed very determined to tell me so I dropped my book and listened to her.“I heard from one of the maids in the kitchen that Fiona asked them to tell people around the village that you're wolfless. And that it was because of your character that you have this curse. She said you're cursed and that's why Felix is marrying another woman.”Well, they had really sat down to think about that story. I mean, they did have to find something convincing to tell the people if he wanted to divorce their Luna and marry someone else.“That seems like a very nice story. And I take it that the people are responding positively.”“Yes, they're believing it. We have to do something.”Sophia liked to panic.“We don't have to do anything except sit back

    FELIXI was on the verge of losing it. I wanted to run away and never come back.As soon as I woke up, I was met with Kelly's attitude. She refused to speak to me as she was still mad that I didn't do anything when Roshida slapped me.She was the Luna. I couldnt touch her but she didn't listen. As if that was not enough, I had my mother's attitude to deal with.She whined and complained all day that Roshida has refused to come to her to take care of her.She'd call me and complain until I couldn't take it anymore.“Just stop it, mother. Please, just stop it! Do you think it's easy for me too? I have so much on my plate and you're not making it any better.”“Felix, you’re raising your voice at me?”“I'm not. What do you need her for, though? You're not sick, you can walk on your own so why do you want her to come to your room and serve you?”Her eyes danced as I waited for an answer.“I'm getting old, I need people to help me.”That was a lie and she knew it.“If you need attention, ge

    ROSHIDAFelix was a coward.He was like a dog that barked and barked and even when the target was in front of him, he couldn't bite.I looked him square in the eye.“I don't know what you want from me but I know I can't give you anything. So it's up to you now.”He looked at me so dumbfounded. What? Did he expect that I would sit back and wait until he married her?“Do you even understand what you're saying? Reject you? You're a Luna. You will tarnish your image. Trash that talk. All you have to do is accept the fact that I'm marrying Kelly. Stop trying to sabotage it.”I was trying to remain calm because I wanted to have this conversation in a very calm way.“Felix, I don't know which of my actions have seemed like a sabotage but I never meant for it to seem that way. As I have said before, I do not care that you want to marry her. Infact, you have my blessings. Go ahead and do it. Just stop bringing me into it. I'm sick of it.”He held my hand.“Roshida, if we are having issues,we d

    ROSHIDAThe new life that I was living made me feel like an actual Luna. I woke up every day and stayed in my room for most of the day since I had nothing to do. Normally, I would have woken up before the sun rose and entered the kitchen to cook Grace’s food because she refused to eat any other thing made by maids. Then I'll go wake her up for her bath. I'd have to bathe her myself because she had tricked me into thinking that her legs weren’t working. But not anymore. If I was going to be a Luna, then I might as well enjoy my days while doing it. There was no reason for me to involve myself in the daily activities of the maids and servants. Sophia brought my food to me earlier and ran my bath. “What do you have planned for the day?”I turned to her with a frown.“Planned for the day? I plan to go to the Capitol and secure my freedom. Doesn’t that sound nice? I've already sent the letter. I just need to make sure the King has seen it.”“We need to celebrate. It's an amazing feat.

    ROSHIDAI’m pretty sure that my attitude shocked him. He rejected me the day he brought another woman into this house, saying that he wanted to marry her while still being married to me so why was he so shocked all of a sudden?“You don’t care?”“Why should I? Did I care when you brought Kelly and said she was your mate? Did I care when you said I should take care of the wedding? Did I care when you said I could be your mistress? So why should i care when you want to reject me?”I was realising how easy it was for me to be careless towards these people. And it felt good. “ You will gain nothing from the rejection. If I reject you, you will lose everything. Your status, your money and all your assets, you will become an outcast here and no one will speak to you ever again.” “Why does it sound like you are trying to convince me not to go ahead with it? You’re the one who wants to reject me, remember? So why are you telling me what would happen? I don’t care if no one speaks to me agai

    FELIXAfter dinner, I sat at the table for a while thinking about everything.I was going to get a lot of hate for doing this but in the end, everything will be fine.As long as the King hadn't finalised finalised the divorce, it meant that we were still married and anything that I wanted, I could take. So, if I wanted to take everything she owned because she was my wife, i could. Right now, there were eyes on me from my enemies, hoping that I will fail in my new position as Alpha and they will be able to tell the Lycan King that they had been right when they said I wasn’t fit to be Alpha.It had taken me six years to finally get to this position. It had also taken a lot of victorious wars, sucking up and being on the good side of the Lycan King to finally be here and I won't let anything make me lose this position.I was also trying to get allies on my side which meant that their eyes were on me because they wanted to know if they would be making a good investment.Then finally, th

    FELIX“I don't understand you, Kelly. What's wrong all of a sudden? Why're you mad?”“I'm mad because you can't seem to understand how serious things are. You said it yourself that things are not looking good for your family anymore. And you think that the right thing to do is to let go of your only source of income?” This was still hard for me to understand. Women always said one thing and meant another. “But Kelly, you don't like Roshida right? You said it yourself yesterday when you came back into the room. So you still want her money?”She gave me a look when she turned around. “Don’t be ridiculous, Felix. First off, I had no idea she was the breadwinner of this family. You didn't tell me that you were that poor.”I held a finger up to her. “I'm not poor. Point of correction, I just don't have a lot of money. She has the inheritance of her parents and that's why she's rich. Her father was a really powerful Alpha before he died.”“How did you even get her to agree to marry you?

    VALFRED I couldn't say anything to her. When I heard about what happened to her, I wanted to go immediately and check on her by my father said that he would have to be dead before I walked out of the house after just being free from the debris on top of me. I wasn't supposed to go to the Trade Center today but just as the last minute after breakfast, I decided that since I didn't have anything to do today, I might as well get some work done. I'd only entered the building and gotten into the elevator when the alarm went off. At first, I thought it was a drill but then when the elevator door opened and I saw the smoke and the way people were in panic mode, I knew it wasn't a drill. With how big and important the Trade centre was, it meant that there would be a lot of people in it and a lot of people running at the same time meant a stampede. A stampede which I could see before me happening and I

    ROSHIDA I didn't have to tell him twice before he accepted. Although he was a little skeptical since there were still procedures that he had to follow with Child Services and all but once I told him that the Queen was involved in this, he was grateful to have something that he could shove in their faces. Sophia helped me carry the bags to the car while Valfred drove us home. All the while, I didn't bother raising my head up and I didn't even realize it until we had gotten home. My whole attention was on Liam. His eyes were finally opened and I just couldn't look away from the tiny little creature in front of me. He had his mother's eyes. While looking through Brianna's things, I'd seen a picture of her and I took it with me so that I could show it to Liam when he got older. I wasn't going to take that away from him more Brianna. He deserved to know the wonderful woman who had raised him. A

    ROSHIDAI didn't even bother to finish taking the IV. I'd removed it from my arm last night and worn my clothes. “Where are her personal effects? I need to see if she has any family.” He led me to the reception and brought out the bag. “We’d already gone through it but we couldn't find anything. There was nothing to say who she was or where she came from.”Shit. Meaning I didn't even know if Brianna was her real name. How could no one know who she was?“What’s going to happen to her body?”“In cases like this where there is no one to claim it, the body usually takes care of it. We do our best to respect the dead and give them a resting place.”Brianna deserved better for all her struggle. “Can I claim her body?”“That would make very happy. That girl deserved more. I'll get you the release forms and then the morticians will help you with her body.”I followed him back to his office so I could get the forms. Who is to blame for what had happened? Emergency services? The Fire De

The doctor said you went into shock?”I nodded. “A lot happened.”“Where did you go? Why didn't you go with a guard? I hear you helped a woman give birth?”I nodded and she finally smiled with tears in her eyes. “Youre really amazing. I was so worried. Come, have a seat.”I sat down beside her. “What about the Prince? Is he here too? Is he okay?” She nodded. “He’s fine. They were able to get him out and he bounced right back up, even refused treatment. But his father forced him to take some drugs for the pain. But he'll be fine. He doesn't know you're here yet.”Gosh, I'm so happy he was fine. If anything had happened to the Prince…“I need to check on the woman I'd brought here. I need to make sure that she's doing okay.”I wanted to stand up but she held me back. “Why don't you rest for tonight? I'm sure you can see the tomorrow.”Right now, it wasn't t

    ROSHIDA “Rub the chest. Make sure that the baby cries. Spank him! Any thing you have to do..” I did all she said I should do but the baby wasn't crying and Brianna wasn't moving. “Brianna? Hey, wake up! Your baby's here.” She didn't move. Her body was limp. Now I was with a baby that wasn't crying and a mother who wasnt moving. I was about to start crying. In a fit of desperation, I spanked that baby on his buttocks so hard and he started crying. The way relief washed over my body, I couldn't explain it. “Screw the ambulance. Sophia, do you know how to drive? Please, get down to the park. Um, the name is Riverdale. Please get down here as soon as possible. I need you to help me get to the hospital. Brianna isn't moving or responding.” I tried shaking her more times but she didn't move. I even placed the baby on her so that maybe she will move but she didn't.

    ROSHIDA I turned around immediately and the pregnant woman was on the floor holding her waist. “Please, please help me. I don't know what's going on.” I rushed over to her, discarding the drink in my hand. “Hey, it's okay. Just like down flat on the floor. It's okay.” I tried to call for people around but it was today of all days that there was no one here. I looked down at her legs and figured that she was in labor. The wetness on her dress said it all. She was panicking and screaming loudly. “What’s your name?” “Brianna!” “Okay Brianna, we're going to do something. I need you to take deep breaths for me okay. Take very deep breaths. Screaming is only going to make it worse.” I didn't know what the hell I was saying but if I panicked, she would notice it and right now, one of us had to act like we knew what

    ROSHIDA I expected to see him at the dinner table but he wasn't there. It's not because I wanted to speak to him. I had nothing to say to him actually but I just wanted to see him. His parents didn't seem to be worried about his absence so why should I? They probably knew where he was. “Roshida, I thought you had plans to leave today. What changed?” I'd forgotten that I hadnt told them. “My apologies. It skipped my mind to tell you but I'd like to stay an extra week. If it's fine with you.” The King was the first who spoke up. “Yes! That is fine. We would be pleasured to have you stay here. Don't bother about your pack or the Fortress. I'll take care of everything.” There was no way I wouldnt worry for my people. They had been put into my care and I had to live up to expectations.

If you get involved, it'll just be worse because they'll think I came to report them to you.” “Do you care?! It's your life and Laura's life we're talking about. If you don't care about yourself, think about your sister. What will you do when they start coming after her? Let me help you.”I knew that what I was saying was falling on deaf ears. “I can't do that. Thank you though. I'm sure I'll figure it out. You don't have to worry.” That was bullshit and at the end, I'll eventually do what I want. I couldn't let him deal with this alone. I knew what those people could do when they didn't get what they wanted. And I won't let them do it with Reggie. “How about you stay off work for now? Just stay home and make sure to lock your doors. Don't go seeing Laura so they won't figure out where she is. You can come stay here too if you want. I'm sure mum would be happy having you around.” “If I

    VALFRED “Why is it my fault? It's not my fault you decided to act like you were speaking to a woman. Besides, why on earth were you smiling at my texts? It's weird.” I picked up a boom and threw it at him. “Youre the one who was telling me about a girl who thought you were handsome. The things you were saying were funny. Wasn't I supposed to laugh?” He dropped Kiki down. “Yes, you were supposed to laugh-” “So what's my fault-” “-Only after, you had heard her out. You like this woman. Why on earth doesn't she have your full attention? She's speaking to you and you're giggling on the phone? She must have felt humiliated and probably like you didn't want to hear what she had to say. I would have walked away too.” Great, so now, I was the asshole. The reason why I didn't look at her when she started talking was because I didn't want her to feel shy. I wa
