*Gwen's POV*I laid on Rex's chest after we had sex. He was completely worn out and sleeping. Even after I had come to sleep with him, my anger still hasn't subdued. The urge to get Joan back for my mockery still was intact. Rex woke up suddenly and stared at me. “Are you okay Gwen..” He said softly. I moved closer to him and kissed him slowly. We finished kissing and I left the room without saying anything. I went back to my room and laid on my bed. “Why am I still thinking about what Happened at the table today. Why can't I get the wench out of my head” I thought as I laid down. Joan was definitely an hinderance To my plan. She is pregnant for Rex and His mother sure loves that dearly. “If I want His mother to like me more. I need to get rid of Joan's baby first..” I thought. The night passed by as I thought of a way to get rid of Joan's baby without raising any suspicions. I slept off still scheming my plan. I woke up the next day feeling much better. Not until I remembered wha
*Joan's POV*I went back to my room to rest after eating the cake. I was surprisingly full after eating the cake. After changing my clothes, I laid on the bed gently to take a nap. I suddenly felt a sharp pain in my stomach. “What is this. Why do I feel a sharp pain in my stomach..” I asked myself.Completely confused, I sat up trying to change my position if the pain would subdue but it didn't work. The pain increased in the Twinkle of an eye. I fell down groaning in pain.The pain was becoming too unbearable and I started yelling in pain. But it only increased more. “Help!...is anyone out there ” I yelled. The door opened and someone walked in. I tried staring at the person but my vision had been blurred. All I could see was the figure of a person but couldn't tell who it was. The person seemed to leave and shortly after, many other people rushed into my room.“What is going on..” I muttered still overwhelmed by the pain. I felt someone hold me and try to help me up but I lost con
*Joan's POV*“What is a doctor doing here. Where in the world am I..” I thought as I stared at the doctor in confusion. The doctor seemed to be checking on my drip and was adding something to it. I was feeling so weak that I could barely move my mouth. After some while, the doctor finished and wanted to leave. “Am I in a hospital, what am I doing here..” I finally asked. The doctor turned to me. “You are fine. Just continue resting for now. You will be informed of what is going on soon” He said and left. I wasn't satisfied with his answer but was too weak to do anything about it. I tried staring around to figure out for myself what is going on but couldn't still get anything. Things are getting really frustrating now. The pain in my body was quite overwhelming too. My stomach felt so empty. I felt I must be really hungry. “What was I doing before I ended up here..” I thought to myself. I tried recalling everything and it all slowly came in. I remembered I was hungry and went to ki
*Joan's POV*The Doctor arrived and took his seat. “You had a spontaneous abortion mam. We tried our best but we were too late, we barely managed to save you”He said. “How did this happen Doctor. I only had a bad stomachache and that is not even enough reason to loose my baby. It was just a stomachache!” I cried out. “We are not entirely certain yet but it seems something you ate or drank caused this. it wasn't natural, the baby was poisoned ” The doctor said. My heart trembled more. He was almost saying my baby was killed by someone. But it all doesn't still make any sense, I can't remember consuming anything dangerous. “Do you Remember the last thing you ate Lady Joan?” The doctor asked. I gave it a thought thoroughly. I remembered waking up very hungry and then wait for breakfast at the table. Then there was a cake on the table. The cake.“I ate a cake..but it seemed pretty normal. Do you think that is what caused it?” I asked. “A cake..I don't think eating a cake would be enoug
*Joan's POV*After sulking for hours, I finally fell asleep. The sleep didn't take too long as I woke up in the middle of the night. Something woke me up but I couldn't tell what it was yet. I sat up and stared around in confusion. In the process of trying to get down from the bed, my hand came in contact with something cold. I was starlted and moved back in fear. I searched around trying to find what it was, It was a knife. I picked it up and stared at it in confusion. It was coated with something that looked like blood. I threw it at the wall in fear. “What is going on. Why is there a bloody knife in my room!” I cried out. The knife waw a mystery that made me panicked greatly. I quickly stood up and headed for the switch to turn on the lights. My leg hit something And I stopped. “What's this..” I said and looked down to see a figure that looked like human lying in a Corner. Instantly, I dashed to the switch. The light came on back and I trembled in fear after seeing a maid soaked
*Joan's POV*I walked back to my room feeling very frustrated. The day went by and it was noon. I couldn't visit the dinning room because I still felt so remorseful. The maids had to bring the dinner to my room.After eating, I laid on my bed staring at the ceilings. The thoughts of what had happened was running through my mind again. It was still too hard to accept that I lost my baby within such a short period of time. I raised my head when I suddenly heard a knock on the door. I stared at the door wondering if I heard right. The knock came again and I was forced to stand up. I reached the door and opened it to see no one on the doorstep. “What is going on. Am I hearing things now?” I asked myself. After taking a good look around once more, I shut the door and walked back to my bed. *Gwen's POV*I was Laying on my bed completely lost in thought. It was already dark and the house was quite silent now. A strange feeling soon emerged from no where. I was feeling so uncomfortable stay

A week later. Joan was taking to court where she was to be judged. The whole pack was present so as many other people from the town.The evidences were provided and the judge gave his judgement. Joan was sentenced to twenty years imprisonment. The evidence provided is enough to proof she really did it and Joan could not provide anything to prove her innocence.Joan was taking away and locked behind bars. Gwen was so happy this finally happened. She could now claim her place in Rex's heart without having anyone ruin her sweet life. *Beta Ryder's POV*I had arrived in the town days ago to find Joan, my ex lover after my wife and I got divorced. My motive intially was to get married to her so I can become the new Alpha and take the pack from Joan's cousin. It all didn't look too good when I arrived and met Everything in a turmoil. Joan had been accused of murdering someone and was sentenced to twenty years imprisonment. I had to get her out of at all cost.Days after she got locked up,
*Rex's POV*I stared at the other person who appeared to be a man. He noticed I was curious about who he was and finally spoke up. “you don't remember me do you” He asked. It didn't take too much of thinking to realize who he was. He was the one who attempted to kill me at the Bridge. “So this is the one that really owns the baby. He's quite pathetic for someone with a child ” I said to Gwen.Martin fumed up. “Who are you calling a pathetic person. Do you have a death wish?. Even if you don't, I am finally going to make sure I kill you properly This time” He said and brought out his gun Wich he aimed at me again. I sighed and shook my head in disappointment. “So you're going to take the cowardice way out again. You are really pathetic, no doubt about that” I said mockingly. Martin paused for a while pondering on what to say. Gwen noticed what was going on and tried to stop him. “What are you doing Martin. Shoot him now and end this finally ” She said. Martin took a deep breath and
*Beta Ryder's POV*I have gotten the answer I've been searching for. There was finally enough evidence I could use this to get Joan out of prison. “Why did you get your hands on such dirty deeds when you also had your own child” i asked Collins who didn't say anything in return. I sighed and brought out my phone to stop recording the conversation. “What is your own aim trying to help your old lover. You must be after something too” Collins suddenly asked. I was shocked to see he knows about I and Joan too. He must know me from somewhere.He smirked when he saw the look on my face. “ You're shocked I know about that. You must not really remember who I am..” he said and chuckled. I could now remember who he was. Gwen and I had visited him long ago when we were still working together. “I don't care what you have to say now. I finally have what I've been searching for. There's nothing else to worry about anymore” I said and turned to leave. Collins quickly stopped me. “Where is my da
*Gwen's POV*I had returned back home from the inn and was heading to my room to grab a few things. Everything seemed to be finally over now and Everyone that could get in my way was out of the picture. Rex's mother won't pose a threath anymore as she'll only shed endless tears on her son's death. I reached my doorstep to see the door was slightly left open. “Huh, did I forget to shut this before leaving..” I thought to myself. I ignored it and pushed the door open. The sight I saw next made move back in shock. Rex was standing and holding something that I hadn't identified yet. “what is. Going on, am I seeing a ghost or just hallucinating?” I asked myself. Rex turned to me and I could see despise on his face. It was now I realized what he was holding. He had unfortunately found the File which had the real DNA test results. “Rex..are you okay” I asked softly. He turned to me and still wasn't saying anything. My whole body was quivering in fear as he moved closer to me. He threw t
*Gwen's POV*I was in a inn with my secret lover, Martin. after taking an excuse that I had some things to sought out, I had left my bay with Rex's mother. We had fun and was relaxing on the bed. “will things go on like this forever. You And I deserve to be with each other officially ” Martin stated. I rose up and stared at him. I asked him what he means. “Rex Is clearly in our way. We need to get rid of him first and then I can claim my rightful place by your side” He stated. He was right, Rex wasn't even the real father of our baby and if I let things stay like that forever, he might find out someday. But I was scared. After everything I've done. I am scared to harm another person. “I don't know if it's a good idea. He isn't one to go down easily. I've heard of how he defeated Alpha Jerome with ease. He's too strong to defy” I stated. “Do not worry about that. I will personally take care of Rex myself. With your approval ” Martin stated. I saw it as a good opportunity to finall
*Eleanor's POV*Beta Ryder had suddenly showed up again but this time, He came with a child. It was a little girl and it made no sense she was here with him. He seemed pretty determined to find an evidence but now, he's with a child. I turned to the little girl to ask who she was. “ I'm Nia, This Mister abducted me..Those are the answers to the questions you wanted to ask aren't they?” She asked. I Petrified by her boldness and the fact she said she was abducted scared me more.“Why did you abduct a girl and decided to bring her here. Do you want to get me in more troubles again!?” I yelled angrily. Ryder was scared to see me angry. He tried calming me down saying everything was going to be okay. “I went to the address you gave me and it turns out The person that sold the cake to Gwen is her father. Left with no choice, I had to abduct her. He has agreed to meet and I'll return the girl once we get what we're searching for” He said. I Finally calmed down. A way to avenge my friend
*Collins's POV*My heart almost flew out through my mouth when I heard my little girl's voice on the phone. It dawned on me when I realized that she had been abducted. “What I this, what do you think you're doing. Why did you abduct my daughter you Psychopath!” i Yelled angrily. “You left me with no choice Collins. We'll meet and you'll tell me everything I want to know or else..you know what will happen. And do not bother trying to contact the police, you'll regret doing so” The man stated. I was so frustrated with the way he was been so commanding. “ I'll give you Two hours to return my daughter. If you don't, I'll unleash hell on your feeble soul” I yelled angrily. He had already ended the call and I was just talking to myself the whole time. I threw the phone away angrily. “What does he want. Who in the world is this lowlife daring to disturb my peace!” I said angrily. “was he here to find out something about one of the people I've once worked for!?” I asked myself. It was the
*Beta Ryder's POV*I left back for my inn. The paper given to me by the maid had the name of a shop written on it. I wasn't sure it would be easy finding the shop but was sure I will after asking around. The shop was located a little far from the main town. I set out the next morning to find the shop. After driving to the address on the paper, I Reached there and the shop was no longer there. I already expected that too. That was why I knew this was going to be hardInstead of a cake shop, there was a different type of shop now. It was now a pawn shop. I decided to walk into the shop and ask the owner some few questions. Entering the shop, the first room was empty but there was another door. I walked to it and knocked. Footsteps approached the door and it finally swung open. “Come in. a man, that looked much older than me said ” I took a deep breath and walked in.He offered me a seat and I sat down. “So, how much are you loaning ” He asked as he brought out some papers for me to fi
Over 9 months had passed and Beta Ryder was still yet to find a way to get Joan out. He visited her frequently to make her feel reassured. *Beta Ryder's POV*It's been so long since I infiltrated Rex's house. I was never able to meet the maid again. She told me there was a way to find a tangible evidence but I couldn't get it from her before the guards drove me away. The security at his house was thightened after that time and it was almost impossible to get In. But still, I found my way In without been noticed. I came in as a delivery man and thankfully, they fell for it. I searched around for the maid but no one realized who I was talking about. After a long search, I asked one of the staffs about the night the house was infiltrated by a man and she told me the maid was fired that same night. For months, I have been waiting for a Moment to meet someone who wasn't where I thought they were!. I asked if she knows her whereabouts but she told me she doesn't know much anymore. I wa
