Darius’s P.O.V

Putting all the worry and all the thoughts that swirled in my mind aside, I stepped foot inside the school’s auditorium, applause echoing through the air while I quickly picked a seat in the middle.

Amelia soon climbed on stage alongside her classmates while her classmates held the cardboard in their hands above their heads. Amelia stood rooted in the same place, searching her eyes through the crowd and there was a slight frown on her face.

Her teacher cracked a joke in a bid to make Amelia participate as she said. “Amelia, let’s get started already or else school isn’t going to close until after midnight”

However, Amelia was adamant and somehow, I soon deciphered that the reason why she acted like this was that I came late and certainly, she must have searched for me!

I honestly didn’t want to be late to her presentation but I had gotten into a fight with Susan earlier who branched at my office, reminding me about why I needed a will and how she discovered that all th

    Marcel’s P.O.VEver since Elodie and I shared our first kiss, things got awkward between us, and for some reason, I couldn’t just help but be filled with guilt, at the same time, my mind lingered on everything that happened between us. Squeezing my eyes shut in a bid to do away with the memories that flooded my mind. No matter how much I tried to do away with the memories, my mind still churned with a whirlwind of thoughts, desperately seeking the perfect explanation for what transpired between us.First of all, we weren’t mates. If we weren’t mates, then why was I attracted to her?Why did I kiss her and most importantly, why did she kiss me back?Jolting me out of my thoughts, a knock landed on the door and the triplets burst in, their giggles filling the air. While Sage carried a tray containing cookies, Silver carried a small cake and on the other Silas fixed his gaze on his comic book while I shook my head, a smile forming on my lips. “Silas” I called and he raised his head, re

    Mae’s P.O.V Marcel squinted his eyes at me suspiciously while Elodie collected the bracelet, staring intently at me. “How could this be in the trash can? Even the maids didn’t find it so…..” Elodie exchanged fleeting glances with Marcel who shook his head as his eyes glinted with confusion. “What? Is there any problem?” A mischievous smile played on my lips but as soon as they faced me, the smile disappeared. Marcel finally talked. “I am just curious, what would the bracelet be looking for in the trash can, now that I think about it, since when have you been following us?” My breath soon got stuck in my throat and anxiety crept at the back of my neck as I tried to look for the perfect words to say. “Actually……” My words trailed. “Ummm, I was looking for the left piece of my earplugs so I deciphered that it must have got lost plus it was pretty expensive. I found the bracelet when I was searching for my earplug” I managed to form a lie. “And, I didn’t follow you. I was just here

    Mae’s P.O.VRolling my wheelchair to the kitchen counter, my fingers trailed the edge of the knife, and different grotesque thoughts about what this could do to Elodie coursed through my mind.I heaved an exasperated sigh, slamming the knife on the kitchen counter and I was about to move away when something vibrated against the kitchen’s counter, I froze at the spot. Glancing behind me, I caught sight of Elodie’s phone and my eyes piqued with curiosity. I moved towards the kitchen counter, taking the phone and I was taken aback when I discovered that the phone had no password of any sort. “Woah”However, my eyes almost popped out of their sockets when my gaze landed on the message that appeared on her phone’s screen. I raised a brow in confusion before rubbing my hands on my eyes to be sure that I was seeing right. My mouth parted in shock, my other hand covering my mouth in a bid to control the screams that were about to escape my lips. “What the fuck! What the actual fuck?”I ha

    Elodie’s P.O.VA knock landed on my room’s door and I was taken aback to see Mae right at the door. She had a lopsided grin that crept at the corner of her lips. “Are you surprised?”“Of course I am, what are you doing here? Do you need help with anything, Mae?” I asked, darting my eyes back to the laptop’s screen. Because of her, I had to round up the things that I was doing and I shut it instantly. Fixing my gaze on her, I asked. “How can I help you, Mae?”“You have a lot to help me with…….” A smug smile was boldly written on her face. I had always known that there was something off with this lady. Ever since she said those words about Marcel being a flirt and dared to act like she was just joking, I had known that something was amiss. “I am listening”“I heard that you are Darius’s ex-wife. It is crazy how I wasn’t quick to recognize you. From what I remember, you were almost overweight but I am shocked that Marcel settled for you”The smile on my face vanished, replaced by a

    Marcel’s P.O.VThis had to be the worst news that I have heard in a while. I couldn’t just wrap my head around how wounded Sage and Silas were. I knew that they could be obstinate at times but at the same time, they always tried to be careful so how could this have happened to them? Coupled with the wounds, Silas had run a temperature while Sage had a fever. They were just brought back from the hospital an hour ago while I tucked them in bed, glancing at Elodie who stared at them with eyes filled with horror. I heaved a sigh, muttering. “It is going to be fine”She nodded, turning off the switch as she went out of the room while I closed the door behind me slowly. “It is my fault, I shouldn’t have gotten them the bicycles”She turned to look at me, shaking her head negatively before she laughed. “No, you don’t have to say something like that. I should have probably been with them before it happened. I can’t just fathom how something like that could happen when I was at home with t

    Mae’s P.O.VSwiveling my gaze around the entire living room, my gaze fell on the huge portraits that were hung on the wall and different thoughts began to course through my mind. Beaming with a smile, I stood up from my wheelchair, imagining how beautiful the living room would be when the portraits of Elodie and her triplets were taken down, replaced by portraits of Marcel and me. As my face blushed red, I tucked a strand of hair behind my ear, running my fingers through Marcel’s picture. My gaze flickered around the entire room while I thought about how to change the room decorations and most importantly, the flower vases because I was sure that Elodie must have been the one responsible for the decorations. Very soon, this whole house will be mine and most importantly, the owner of the house will be mine. I was soon jolted out of my thoughts because, in the dimly lit hallway, the rhythmic thud of luggage being dragged down the stairs echoed through the whole mansion while I quic

    Mae’s P.O.VAfter hours of hitting my fist against the bar gates, tears streamed down my face while I put a call through Susan who had sent the address of a coffee shop. Gnawing on my fingers, I tried hard to not cry in public but I couldn’t because the thought of never seeing Marcel again was suffocating and the only thing that I wanted to do was turn back the hands of time!I didn’t regret whatever I did to the triplets! They deserved it as far as I was concerned but the only thing that I regretted was not disconnecting the CCTV footage before doing something like that. I should have also thought twice before sending Marcel such a text. The waiter carefully placed a Caffé macchiato right in front of me while I quickly wiped off my tears muttering under my breath. “Thank you”As soon as he left, the tears that I tried so hard to fight streamed down my face as I lowered my head and took a sip of the coffee that burnt my lips immediately. “Why is this so fucking hot…..” I almost ye

    Elodie’s P.O.VAs soon as I stepped inside the house, Marcel swooned me in a hug that kind of took me aback because as much as I found comfort in his arms, I pushed him away from me, staring deep into his eyes for answers that had no questions. Forcing out a smile, I muttered. “Why? Did something happen…..”Marcel’s eyes closed briefly as his chest heaved before he ran his hands through his hair. “I have been trying to reach you. I thought that you got intimidated by what Mae did”My brows furrowed with confusion even though my eyes piqued with curiosity at the same time. “What? I ran out of battery and what do you mean by what Mae did?”Gently, Marcel led me to the plush couch and explained everything in detail to me. While he talked, I could see the anger in his eyes, how incredulous the whole issue seemed to him, and most importantly, how he couldn’t believe that Mae would do something like that. I knew from the very start that something was off with that witch when she began to

    Epilogue **After One Year** The setting sun cast a golden glow over the ethereal surroundings as the sound of waves crashing in the distance echoed through my ears. My heart pounded against my chest in anxiety despite the excitement that bubbled deep within me. The air hung heavy with anticipation and on exchanging fleeting glances with the triplets who keep taking pictures of me with their cameras, I shot a wink at them. Silas gesticulated before he mouthed. “Daddy, don't overdo the smile. Smile, like this” I did just as he had said while the guests laughed at the silent conversation between Silas and me. I gave Silas a thumbs-up while Silver gave a gentle applause that was almost inaudible. Sage on the other hand sat next to Aunt Nadia, Leah, and Axel who carried both Elysia and Daisy in his arms while Sage made funny faces to them. Staring at the scene before me, I fiddled with my fingers in anticipation, carefully waiting for my bride. “She is here” Someone murmu

    Elodie’s P.O.VThe clouds darkened, thunder rumbling through the sky while I stood rooted to the same spot frozen. The rain first started like a gentle patter but in the next minute, the rain enveloped me totally, soaking my clothes as my hair clung to my face. I was too numb to speak. Too shocked to even wrap my head around what had happened. I could barely move my legs but I mustered the courage and dragged my feet towards the railings, staring down at Darius's lifeless body. His blood that soaked the metal spikes was being washed away by the rain that fell heavily. I should be relieved that he was dead…But the more I stared at his lifeless body, the more dread settled at the pit of my stomach and I saw myself on the metal spikes. My breath came in ragged gasps as I gripped the railings and that was when the images of Ezra spurting out blood flashed through my mind. My shoulders sagged and the more I gripped the railings, the more different emotions crashed over me. I crumbled

    Elodie’s P.O.VOh my. The necklace looked pretty on me. I trailed my fingers on the necklace and stared at my reflection in the mirror, that was when the reality hit me that Silver wasn’t back with my phone yet. He didn’t know where he dropped his phone tablet and pleaded with me to give him my phone so he could call his dad. “Could he be playing games on my phone?” I muttered to myself, standing up and that was when it dawned on me that even my hair stylist wasn’t back yet. I glanced at her empty cup of juice and darted my eyes back to mine which was still untouched. “What could she be taking downstairs?” I muttered to myself, opening the door to the room, and stepping out while calling for Silver’s name. But the only response I got was his name which returned as echoes in my ears. Something was wrong.What was going on? Walking down the hallway, relief flooded through me when I saw Aunt Nadia sleeping on the couch next to the vase of flowers. “Aunt Nadia, you should go into

    Marcel’s P.O.V*** Baby Shower ***Strings of pink, white, and silver balloons floated gently in the sunlit garden. Tulips, daisies, and peonies decorated every corner while I stood amidst it all, staring around like a proud dad. I had canceled all my schedule just to participate in the decoration after inviting a team of event planners from Thailand. As a smile formed on my face, the only thought that coursed through my mind was how Elodie was going to love this.I could already picture the look that was going to be on her face when she stepped into the garden later in the evening. All of a sudden, I was jolted out of my thoughts when a maid stood before me and on getting my attention, she lowered her head. “Sir, the popular cake corner called concerning how the delivery was going to be late. They claimed that there was a mix-up with the cake decorations”“I would be going alongside the head servant to monitor the progress of the cake. We will ensure that it gets here before the b

    Marcel’s P.O.VIn the doctor’s office, Elodie stared into space, before heaving a sigh while her hands were clasped tightly in mine. A small smile played on my face, amused with the way a strand fell on her face. I was about to remove my hands from her’s in a bid to brush off the strand when she turned to look at me, a glint of worry in her eyes and distress written on her face. She has been like this lately. It worsened since the night she accepted my marriage proposal and the annoying thing was she didn't want to see a doctor and instead stuck to paranoia. I was soon jolted out of my thoughts when she muttered. “Marcel, what if it is a stomach infection or cancer?”Heaving an exasperated sigh, I shook my head. “That is why we are here. I told you that it isn't any of this”Her voice shook. “It is not like you are a doctor. Plus I have never felt this way before and I have been seeing symptoms that relate to stomach cancer and stomach infection”“We should have seen the pack docto

    Elodie’s P.O.VImages of Susan’s lifeless body in the creek flashed through my mind and the way Marcel’s strong arms encircled me, pulling my trembling body against his chest in a bid to stop my gaze from lingering on her disfigured face. Darius was a monster. A monster that I never wanted to lay eyes on for the rest of my life. Marcel assured me that he was going to find Darius and finish him off as fast as possible. It has been two months since Susan died and still, that grotesque image of her in the creek kept lingering in my mind. I was so traumatized that the only one who helped me was Marcel and right now, I was pissed at him. Recently, I have been having crazy mood swings that really scared Marcel off at times and right now I was boiling because I had planned a movie night with him just for him to bail out on me at the last minute. My gaze lingered on his message telling me that he wasn't going to be coming because something important suddenly came up. Like I wasn't impor

    Elodie’s P.O.V Taking my gaze off the ornate glass chandeliers, adorned with delicate crystal pieces that hung from the intricately designed ceiling, I paused beside Marcel. He glanced at me briefly before turning swiftly, his eyes softening and lighting up as if he had just seen an irreplaceable treasure.Staring into the ethereal green of my eyes, Marcel wrapped his fingers around my waist drawing me closer to him as he buried his face at the side of my neck, nibbling in a way that sent shivers down my spine. It was like he was basking in my scent. He was warm. My haven and my peace. I loved him. A lot. His lips grazed my skin, sending sparks of fire in its wake. “You are like a delicate flower that I want to keep, adorn, cherish, and nurture forever, ensuring you bloom endlessly. To the very end”“You are so beautiful, I feel like I want to end the party, take your clothes off, and show you how much you mean to me”My hand rested on his shoulders, while I muttered under my bre

    Darius’s P.O.VMy lips trembled as a searing pain racked through my body while I hung limply from the chains that bound my wrists to the walls, my upper body exposed and covered with cuts which blood dripped from. Another lash landed on my back and a groan left my lips, my vision blurred with a red haze as I gritted my teeth. “Stop!” A husky voice echoed off the walls of Layzal’s dungeon as the whip made a soft thud as it was dropped against the ground. As soon as the doors to the dungeon closed, hot tears streamed down my face and a bitter laughter spiraled from me. It has been two weeks since Marcel eliminated all the council members who were responsible for everything that happened to his family. He had chosen new members of the council, and taken over my pack with my idiotic park members in support of that tyrant. Marcel changed the name of the pack to the moonstone pack. He probably named it after my late son. That bastard!I was soon jolted out of my thoughts when a dark au

Staring at the ceiling which a candle chandelier hung while the grotesque image of the nightmare clung to the back of my mind like a dark stubborn shadow that seemed more like it was soon going to close in on me.I sat up slowly, leaning against the headboard while staring into space as memories of the nightmare flashed through my mind. My breath came in short, shallow gasps as I ran my hands through my hair frustratedly. I had seen myself falling off a cliff and I was in my pool of blood. Could it be the lingering fear of Layzal doing something to me that made me have this horrible nightmare? It had to be it. There was no way that I was going to die! I would never allow that. I will do everything to stay alive and get my children back from Marcel. “I won't die! Not now…not now” I muttered to myself while placing a hand on my chest that heaved slowly, sliding off the bed, as I walked to the bathroo
