Dana

Everything was wrong.

Impotence consumed me. I wanted to scream all the truths to that damn crazy woman. I would love for my father to realize the daughter he had close to him. Dad was always closer to her than to me. I wonder what my father would say if he knew the malicious actions of his daughter.

I also wondered what Dad said when he found out about Rachel and Demian's wedding. The last time I saw my father was years ago when I married Demian. Dad introduced himself to Demian so he knew who he was. Knowing my father, I bet he was happy for both of them to get married. Like I said, Dad preferred Rachel.

"Are you okay?" Jeremy asked me. When I saw him, I realized he was covered from the waist down with a towel. "I'm sorry. I'll go change in the room."

I must admit Jeremy had an impressive physique. He was a very handsome man. But my mind still couldn't stop thinking about someone else.

"Not so good," I replied.

"Did Demian call you?"

"Rachel," I told him.

    DanaNothing would end well.Jeremy nearly gouged out Demian's eyes when he said he wanted us to go to California.Demian didn't know that I was forbidden from setting foot in my city again. His fiancée was to blame for that."You're crazy," I replied."Crazy? You're the crazy one if you think I'll leave you here while you're pregnant. You're not going to carry my children in your belly being so far away from me. I need to make sure everything is okay with the pregnancy.""You can find out through a message or a call."Demian chuckled."And then? What are you going to do when our children are born? Are you going to live here and me in California? No way!"Live. A delicate word for me. Because of Demian, a curse fell upon me, and I had no idea how to reverse it. Demian wasn't even aware of it, and I didn't intend to tell him. After how he treated me, my assured death would bring him joy. Just thinking about it made my chest sink with sadness and disappointment. Anguish consumed me merci

    DanaMy breathing is heavy.My blood boiled with rage. I wasn't going to let Demian get away with it.I quickly took my phone from my pants pocket and searched for his number among my contacts. Since we separated, I've wanted to delete his number, but I've never been able to because nostalgia prevented me. But today it served me to confront him."You already know what's going on between us, don't you?" Demian answered."How dare you do this, Demian? You're impossible! You surprise me more every day! Why are you doing this to me? Why do you hate me so much?""It's not about hate, Dana. It's about what's best for our children. It's best for you to travel with me to California. If you don't do it willingly, you'll do it by force. My lawyer is taking care of everything. You know the power I have. I can snap my fingers and get whatever I want immediately. I advise you to find a lawyer."Jeremy snatched the phone from my hands."Are you doing this for us? Are you forcing her to leave because

    DanaJeremy ignored me when I asked him to stop. He slammed the door shut and left, leaving me there alone. I didn't want to lose him, as he was the only person I had left.I stayed alone in the apartment, analyzing our recent conversation. I felt guilty, but I knew I wasn't. My decision was right and sensible. It scared me, but Jeremy had no right to be angry with me for that. He couldn't expect me to choose him to be the father of my children when he wasn't. I'm sure Jeremy would behave like an excellent stepfather, but it was Demian's role to be the father.I went down to work at the cafe. It was my turn to open it, so I got ready and arranged the tables and chairs. The customers didn't take long to arrive.I served the customers, begging for a moment of peace. My morning had just begun, and I was looking forward to my break. The conversation between Jeremy and me lingered. Soon, I would call Demian to tell him about the possible decision I would make to make peace between us.But

    DemianRachel and I have been having issues ever since she found out about Dana's secret babies. She was scared that Dana would tear us apart again. Rachel insisted that Dana was evil and capable of anything to break us up, but I assured her that wouldn't happen between us.However, Rachel asked me never to go back to Kansas. She wanted us to leave immediately and leave Dana behind, but I couldn't do that. I didn't care about Dana as a person because she hurt me. My heart still bled from her past actions. But my children were inside her, and I couldn't abandon them. I would never forgive myself for that."You're crazy! How could you even think about taking Dana to California, Demian? No way! I don't want her near us, and I don't like that you want to take care of her kids. Demian, you and I are going to start a family, don't you understand? You don't even know if her babies are yours. Don't believe what she says.""I believe they're my children because I've looked into her eyes, Rache

    DanaWhen I opened my eyes, I was in my bed. I didn't remember how I had gotten there, but I did remember feeling unwell. In fact, I still felt a bit queasy and tired. I sat up in bed, and the smell of food caught my attention.That smell... I knew it. It was the sauce that Demian used to make for me when we were together, and he felt like cooking. But Demian wasn't the one cooking for me, as we were no longer together. I remembered Jeremy and our fights. It wasn't possible for Jeremy to be cooking for me. Who was it? Who was in my house?I walked down the hallway. I heard a noise in the kitchen. I peeked through the door and saw him cooking just like always. It was Demian. He moved around my kitchen, unaware of my presence, cooking attentively and stirring the sauce.A pressure settled in my chest as I missed the past. I missed when everything was okay between us. For some time now, all we seemed to do was fight and disrespect each other."Demian?" I said his name, confused.He turne

    DanaJeremy entered the room and saw us together.Demian and I were sitting on the bed facing each other, eating as if nothing bad had ever happened between us. I didn't have to be a mind reader to realize that this would cause problems between Jeremy and me. If he was angry with me before, I couldn't imagine how angry he would be now.Jeremy looked at Demian, clearly not understanding anything. His eyes met mine, and I could see it in his gaze. Jeremy was disappointed and uncomfortable."Jeremy, what are you doing here?""Rather, what is he doing here? In your room," Jeremy clarified. Yes, he was definitely angry."Is there something wrong with that? I'm accompanying the mother of my children. I came to take care of her because she needed me. I'm not like you. You left her and didn't even realize she was burning with fever and almost lost consciousness," Demian didn't have to say that. I know he did it to create a conflict between them.If Demian wanted to help me feel better, he was

    DanaI was stunned by Jeremy's words. He ended our relationship because of my decision."Fine! Go! I don't want someone in my life who can't support me. This isn't about us. It's about my children and what's best for them."Jeremy ignored me and left. I followed him down the hallway, almost running after him. I wanted to say. So many things to him, but time wasn't on my side.Jeremy left.I held back tears for a few minutes but ended up crying in my room from the horrible feeling consuming my body. Part of me wished Jeremy would come with me to California because I didn't want to feel alone. His company was a remedy for my broken heart. A temporary but beautiful remedy.I could hardly sleep all night. I had to get up early for work and repeat my day as I usually did. I didn't hear anything from Demian that day, which disappointed me. It was contradictory because whenever we saw each other, I kicked him out of my house. But after what happened because of him in my apartment, I wanted t

His visit to the house hadn't been well received since he arrived in town, but today I was glad he came to see me.Rachel looked at me, and I could swear her gaze demanded that I behave. Demian couldn't take his eyes off her. The situation was uncomfortable for all three of us, but I enjoyed watching how Rachel behaved."I came to see Dana, Demian," she replied."Yes, but why? How do you know she lives here?"Demian's question was crucial. Rachel tensed. She wanted to tell Demian that Rachel had been investigating me. She always knew everything."I wanted to apologize to Dana," she replied. "I know I shouldn't have done it, but the other day I followed you here, Demian. That's how I know where Dana came from.""You came to apologize?"Apologies? Rachel had no shame in lying to her future husband."Yes. I came to convince Dana to come back to California

    DanaThe first month without him was hard. Without my mother's support, I would never have been able to move forward.The second month was terrifying. I cried so much. I don't know how I didn't become dehydrated.In the third month, my children were already so strong, and the doctors discharged us from the hospital, and we went home, where a four-year-old brother was waiting for us. I took care of Demian's little son because he was left alone. Rachel abandoned him, and he needed a mother. That little boy was not to blame for having a mother like Rachel, so I took care of him as if he were my own son. I know Demian would have loved that.The fourth month was just as painful as the third. I couldn't accept that he wasn't near me. I missed him so much. There wasn't a day when I didn't cry over his departure. I wondered if he was okay. Was he alive? Did he miss us?

    DanaI suddenly opened my eyes and sat up in bed, gasping. I coughed non-stop, and my mother was worried about me. I touched my abdomen and noticed that my belly was no longer the same as before. I frowned and looked at my mom."What happened? Where are my children?""The babies are alive in the maternity and baby room. They are in an incubator, daughter" my mom explained, stroking my hair.My babies... my children had been born, and I had been asleep the whole time. I wanted to touch and kiss them. I needed to see and meet them. Their faces, their little hands, and feet. My eyes filled with tears. Finally, I was a mother. Finally, I could meet them.I begged to be allowed to see them. Mom said she would call the doctor to have me taken to see my children. I had never felt such great excitement. I felt energetic like I hadn't felt in a long time."Don't strain yourself. You just came out of a complicated surgery. You have to stay calm. We'll wait for the doctor. Okay?"A surgery? Why

    DemianI looked for the address where a black car with tinted windows would pick me up. Rachel's henchmen were coming for me to take me to her. That was the deal. I understood we were going to leave the city and the country so no one could find us. It was madness to leave the country and have no further contact with my family, Dana, or any information about my children. But that was the deal I made with Rachel so she would tell me how to save Dana. I trusted the maid would be of great help to Dana, my son, and my other two children. I wanted to believe everything would be fine while I was gone, but I wasn't sure of it.Nerves were eating me slowly and anxiety was my worst enemy. The star-filled sky didn't match the horrible feeling in my heart today.They picked me up and put a bag over my head. Another rule was not to resist the kidnapping they were going to perform. So I stayed still. I felt a prick on my neck and it took hold of my skin. I grimaced. That wasn't part of the deal, bu

    DemianI had to make a quick decision to save Dana. I had to leave or stay with Dana while she died slowly. There was no certainty in Rachel's words, but I had to do something for Dana, and I believe the maid was right all along. If being with Rachel was the key to Dana's survival, I was going to do it. I had to take that risk. I had seen her die before my eyes. I couldn't let that happen again and have it be permanent. Dana and my children needed me. What kind of man was I if I couldn't protect my family from this hell? What kind of man was I if I couldn't keep them alive?I had to accept going with Rachel, but first, I had to make sure the surgery was successful. Hours passed without any answers. A doctor approached Dana's mother, and I went to listen to what happened."What happened? I'm Dana's husband. How is she? My children?""We delivered the babies, and they are alive, but they need to be monitored in incubators for a while, as their organs are still developing. Ideally, the b

    DemianDana's heart stopped suddenly while we were talking. Her eyes were fixed on mine, but she was no longer moving. I was terrified. I felt a fear like I had never felt in my life. Anguish took over my body, dragging me down the path of pain. My chest tightened as I realized she was gone. Dana was gone. Someone had to do something. They had to bring my beloved back to me. I couldn't live without her because living without Dana was like being dead in my own life.I took her face in my hands as I heard the long beep of the machine connected to Dana. I searched for something to help her, but I didn't know how. No one prepares anyone for this. Not even I, a powerful Alpha, could escape such immense pain."Dana, no... No!" I shouted. "Don't go! You can't go! I won't allow it. Not like this. Please," I begged. I had never begged anyone for anything in my life, but for Dana, I was willing to do anything.I would give my life for hers. I was willing to take her place and her pain so that s

    DemianDana went crazy when she found out that Thomas had died, but I can't blame her. I feel the same way, but I try to find a balance between my emotions because one of us has to be strong for the other. I promised Dana that I would always be there for her, and this was a way to fulfill my words. News like this could make Dana lose the babies. I knew something was wrong when we entered the house and everyone looked at us strangely. Dana noticed and figured it out."How is this possible? Rachel has henchmen. She has people she pays. Her parents disappeared, so they must be helping her do everything she does. Otherwise, it doesn't make sense. How is it possible that Rachel has so many people on her side? Again, it must be her father paying thugs to do the dirty work. Someone had to take the body to that wasteland, and I know she wouldn't do it alone.""We've made calls to the police, and they're still investigating. It's a matter of finding her, Demian.""This nightmare won't end unti

    DanaWe took a walk around the house to have a moment of privacy. The house was huge, and we walked slowly because of my pregnancy. My belly was heavy, but the dress was comfortable for walking as it was not tight. Since my belly had grown so much, I had to get large and new clothes because what I used to wear no longer fit me. The doctors forbade me from wearing tight clothes. When Demian and I returned home, Thomas was there, looking worried. He seemed completely upset. Demian also noticed and asked him what was wrong. Demian looked at me. I know he didn't want me to find out certain things so that I wouldn't worry and get hurt. Demian became overly protective of me when he found out my children were his.Demian and I returned to the mansion, and the pack was still there, but not all of them.

It had been a long time since I had slept so comfortably with someone. At that moment, I knew: I didn’t want to be away from her and I wasn’t going to, not even for what Rachel asked of me. I wanted to marry Dana today.I got up early in the morning and asked a notary to come to the house to marry Dana and me. She had no idea about this. I didn’t want to wait any longer to be her husband. I don’t know how things will continue after Rachel’s request and the conversation I had with the maid. I know she was right, and I had to put priorities on the table for the sake of the pack. But Dana was one of my priorities. She was the most important person alongside my children. And I couldn’t leave my son alone. If I left, Dana would be alone and have no one to trust.I made a promise to Dana. I promised her that I wouldn’t leave her and I wouldn’t ab
