Elodie’s P.O.V

Miles away from the resort, Marcel’s villa stood in the heart of the island as the tropical scent of hibiscus and plumeria filled the air. We had just stepped off the helicopter because as soon as we landed here, Marcel was excited to give me a quick aerial tour of the island.

While he reprimanded Alvaro over some mistakes, I swiveled my gaze around the surroundings.

It was evening. The golden lights that emanated from the house were cast onto the ground and the huge villa was surrounded by coconut trees. Potted plants were arranged around the terrace, their vibrant colors adding to the ambiance.

Leaving Marcel behind, I wandered around the house, running my hands over the artworks but all of a sudden, my heart almost jumped out of my chest when a woman’s voice filled my ears.

“Did I scare you?” She stepped forward, placing a lei necklace over my neck while handing me a coconut drink.

“Who are you?”

The old woman grinned. “Call me Khloe, I am the housekeeper and we

    Elodie’s P.O.VHand in hand, Marcel and I strolled along the shoreline while I had my gaze fixed on the kids that surfed on the beach and it kind of reminded me of Sage. As the sand yielded beneath our bare feet, I said. “I find it weird that the same Sage who cried about wanting to come to Hawaii is the same boy who claims that he was glad that he didn’t come with us”Marcel laughed softly. “Trust Aunt Nadia to make him grateful that he didn’t come with us . Do you want to go surfing?”I turned to look at him, my eyes widening. “No, I am terrified of the waves. What if it crashes over me?”Marcel’s hands left mine, wrapping his arm around my shoulder. “It wouldn’t crash on you as long as I am there with you”I chuckled at his words. “You seem so confident that you feel like even the seas would obey you”He laughed. “I am Marcel, everyone and everything obeys me. The sea’s no exception”Later on, after we had strolled around the shoreline, Marcel took me by surprise when he lifted me

    Marcel“You still haven't found Darius yet?” Ezra replied. “There is no single trace of him anywhere. Something isn't just right and the craziest thing is that Finn has been collecting information concerning the packs that you are in alliance with”I scoffed in disbelief. “Does this mean that Darius isn't dead?”Ezra sighed. “I honestly don't know but when I asked Finn, he claimed that Alpha Darius tasked him with digging information concerning the packs that you are in alliance with before the whole Liam attack thing happened”“Go on”“You know I said that he isolated himself for days... Alpha Darius is a pretty good artist and he had sketched rough images of you being in your pool of blood and him holding your decapitated head as a trophy. I also think that he had assigned that task to Finn to find a way to turn your allies against you”I clutched a glass of whiskey, the ice cubes clinking like tiny bells as I dropped it and leaned back in the chair. “Really?”“Yes,”“Send pictures

    Elodie’s P.O.VMy fingers trailed the marking spot around the side of my neck, and all the memories from last night flashed through my mind. Everything that happened felt surreal, and I had to pinch myself numerous times in a bid to remind myself that this wasn’t a dream. From being mates to Marcel marking me…The emotions that crashed over me were too much, but since today was Marcel’s birthday, I would rather put the thoughts aside and focus on executing my birthday plans for Marcel to perfection. I had just left the birthday venue to check the decorations and to see if they would fit the black-tie theme that I had envisioned. Since everything was done to my taste, all that was left was picking my dress and another birthday gift for Marcel that I had just thought about in the dying minute. Switching on my phone, a smile appeared on my face upon receiving messages from Marcel constantly asking where I was. He also added that the triplets, his brother, and his aunt had surprised h

    Darius’s P.O.V Sitting on a chair, I leaned forward, tucking the strands of hair that fell on her face behind her ear. My fingers trailed her face, gently blowing the speck of dust on her face, and just the fact that she was here fulfilled me. A wince escaped her lips and the reality hit me that it could be because of her hands that were tied behind her. I watched as her head swayed by the sides gently and when I was about to place a finger on her lips, I froze. Elodie drawled, her voice barely above a whisper. “Marcel!” That name! How I despised that horrible name of his. Anger surged through me, my fingers clenching tightly. The only relief came from the sketches I had drawn of Marcel. Imagining him in that tragic state brought nothing but serenity to my soul. My mind drifted back to the council members who had been trying to contact me. I hadn't left the pack out of fear of their decision. In truth, I was scared, which was why I left a suicide note, hoping to garner their s

    Elodie’s P.O.VPain sliced through my head like a knife, my eyes fluttering open and the sound of beeping machines echoed through my ears. Numb, I stared at the ceiling before swiveling my gaze around the entire room, sitting upright and the sterile smell that wafted through my nostrils made me realize that I was in the hospital. But how?Why was I in the hospital? As far as I could remember, I was supposed to be at Marcel’s birthday so what was I doing here?At that moment, all the memories that seemed to have been kept at the corners of my heart flashed through my mind, causing my heart to lurch. From the thief to Alvaro being in a pool of blood, then to someone making me unconscious. A wave of panic surged through me and without thinking, I yanked out the IV drip from my arm, wincing at the brief sting. Sauntering toward the door, my mind kept drifting back to Alvaro as tears stung the back of my eyes. Could Alvaro be dead? If he was, I'd never forgive myself for dragging him i

Squeezing my eyes shut, my mind wandered back to when Axel and Mae exchanged fleeting glances before darting their eyes back to me, their eyes glinting with shock. I was too stunned to speak. Marcel, still staring at me, shifted his gaze back to Axel, his voice barely audible. “Darius….”Axel cut in. “Was he the one who shot you? Did you see his face?”Marcel nodded. “Yes, he shot me and then pushed me down the cliff. I don’t know how Mae got there but she jumped into the water and brought me out. I guess that I must have been badly affected by it for me to be here”Tears stung the back of my eyes and Axel’s hands flew over his mouth while Mae broke down in tears. While I struggled to grapple with the truth before me as Marcel stared at Mae in confusion before fixing his gaze back on me, he reiterated that heart-wrenching question. ‘You are crying again, who are you?”

    Darius’s P.O.VLaughter bubbled deep within me while bringing my clenched fist over my mouth in a bid to suppress the overwhelming urge to laugh out loud. Mae was gullible, selfish, and easy to use. She would be a pretty good tool to use in fulfilling my desires to reunite with my ex-wife. I leaned in the chair, a smile creeping at the corner of my mouth. “When Mae uses the information that I gave to her, Marcel is going to reject Elodie as his mate. The divorce papers too! Elodie would be helpless and she would be left with no option than to come back to me! I am really smart,”“Now, it is time to go and face the council. What kind of story do I cook up?……… I should be able to come up with a perfect explanation” A bright smile formed on my face and I attempted to stand up, gesturing for one of the goons to help me with the crutches when everything inside of me froze. My heart stopped and an icy revulsion hit me when soft delicate fingers landed on my shoulders, pushing me back to

    MaeThankfully, Axel agreed that it was time for Elodie and Marcel to now be separated from each other because according to him, Marcel would keep getting hurt as long as he was involved with Darius. Axel thought that Darius was the one who had attacked Marcel in Hawaii. Seeing how mistaken he was about Darius, I decided to use the whole thing to my advantage just like Darius had advised. With Axel willing to separate Marcel and Elodie because he wanted to protect his brother, Darius’s and I’s plan was on its way to becoming a success but my only problem was Aunt Nadia!Aunt Nadia posed a big threat to my plans because seeing how she was currently with Elodie who was pretending to have some unknown medical condition just to garner sympathy from Axel and Aunt Nadia, it was evident that she liked Elodie and held me with serious contempt. Aunt Nadia had hated me ever since I poisoned her cat because she made a joke about setting up Marcel with this mean girl in school. At the same ti

    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

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
