WHITNEY'S POVFor some seconds, Henry and I were silent. I was sobbing as I watched him looking sad and staring blankly into space. All of a sudden, the sadness disappeared from his face and was replaced with a fury which startled me for a moment. "I will make sure that Luther pays for what he has done to you. How could he have even thought of raping you let alone perpetrating it? When I heard that he raped you, at first, I was worried about the psychological trauma the rape could cause which I fear could affect you for a very long time. Never did it cross my mind that it could result in pregnancy...""It never crossed my mind as well that I could be pregnant. I was just bitter and angry with Luther for defiling me," I said with an emotionally laden voice."Please, stop crying and get hold of yourself. Have you decided on what to do?""Yes, I have," I replied. "So, what do you intend to do about it? I guess you want to terminate it, right?" he asked as he stared steadily at me."
HENRY'S POVAs I left Whitney's room and headed to Luther's room, I was burning with rage and took long strides down the hallway. I just could not comprehend why Luther is so heartless and has no iota of pity for Whitney. I will give him a piece of my mind today, I fumed in anger.I got to the door of Luther's room and rang the bell. After a couple of seconds, the door swung open and Luther stood by the doorway. He gave me a cold stare as my eyes swept over him.He was wearing a green T-shirt and stonewashed jeans. On his neck was a gold chain and on his feet was a pair of white sneakers with green stripes. It was glaring that he was going out. "Luther, I want to speak to you in private. Can we talk in your room?" I said with a tone of anger."Why are you sounding angry? Anyway, sorry, that would have to be later. As you can see, I am dressed up. I am going on a date with my girlfriend.""What I want to talk to you about is urgent and very important. You can call your girlfriend on t
HENRY'S POV"Gosh! You blatant liar! How can you say you have not seen Whitney for the past two weeks?" I asked with an incredulous expression. "Yes, I have not seen her," he reiterated."Will you shut up! First, you denied that you did not rape Whitney. Secondly, you denied that you are not responsible for her pregnancy and now you are denying that she did not come to your room and that you haven't seen her for the past two weeks. How can you deny all that without flinching?" I asked with disbelief."I am not lying...""Shut up! I will see how far you will go with this ridiculous pretense. Anyway, since you have denied everything you know you did to Whitney, I am going to remind you of something you told me a couple of weeks ago.""What is it?" he asked staring steadily at me."A couple of weeks ago, you called me to your room in the afternoon and you confessed to me that you raped Whitney. You asked me to beg her on your behalf because you want her to be your mate when you become t
WHITNEY'S POVI was lying on the bed in my room. I have been trying to read a novel since Henry left my room. However, I couldn't concentrate as my mind was in turmoil. I recalled how angry Henry was when I told him about what Luther said when I told him about my situation.There was so much rage in his eyes when he told me that he was going to confront Luther and the way he stormed out of my room got me worried. It's over thirty minutes since Henry left my room in anger and he told me he will come back to see me after he leaves Luther's room. I tried to imagine how his confrontation with Luther will be. Thinking about how ferocious Luther could be when he is angry and how equally ferocious Henry could be when he is furious made me feel agitated. I knew without a doubt that they would have a heated argument but I was worried that it could degenerate into a fight. Considering both of their temperament especially when they are angry, there is a high possibility of them fightin
WHITNEY'S POV For a moment, Luther stared at me with a mixture of shock and fear on his face which made me feel a little better considering my mind was in turmoil concerning my pregnancy. I know he believed that I don't have any evidence to prove that he raped me, so, I could understand why he looked so shocked and afraid. I turned to look at Henry and there was a surprised look on his face. His eyes were filled with questions begging for answers which I was willing to answer but not in the presence of Luther. "I know that you are just trying to hoodwink me into believing that you have evidence but I know you don't have any," he said with a smirk."Luther, do I look like I'm trying to hoodwink you? You have messed up my life in no small measure and I am devasted by my pregnancy but I have no choice but to face my fears and try as much as I can to surmount the mountain that you have put before me with your wickedness. I will be the biggest fool alive if I am bluffing consider
WHITNEY'S POV"Hello, Dad," I said and averted my eyes to Henry who was looking at me sadly. "Hello, Whitney. I saw your missed call and that is why I'm calling you back. I hope you are alright," my father said. "Not really," I replied."What is the matter?""Dad, I will like to see you and mom as soon as possible.""Whitney, are you alright? You are making me anxious," he said with a worried tone. "Dad, I can't tell you over the phone and that is why I want to see you and mom. Please, can I see the two of you this evening?""Of course. After this call, I will call your mom and tell her of your request. I guess your mother and I will be done with our work by 9 p.m. So, you can come to my room by 10 p.m. "Alright, dad. I will come and see you by 10 p.m. Till then, bye for now," I said and hung up the phone. I looked at Henry and we made eye contact. "I can see that you have made up your mind. I guess I should respect your decision. At least I have tried to make you change your mi
WHITNEY'S POV"Whitney, what are you doing here?" Martin asked with curiosity. "I want to speak with dad," I replied with anxiety."He was silent for a moment as he stared at me. I have never seen you come by this time to speak with dad. I hope everything is alright.""Yes, everything is fine," I replied. "How is your health now?" he asked."I feel much better.""Good to know. I brought some fruit for you. Should I put them in your room?" he asked as he dangled a heavy-looking paper bag before my face. "Oh, thank you. Yes, please put them in my room. I don't want to take it with me to dad's room.""Alright. I'm exhausted. I will drop the bag in your room and go to my room at once and have a quick shower and then go to bed," he said as he yawned loudly."Alright. I will see you in the morning. Good night.""Good night," he replied and headed to my room with the paper bag in his hand. I watched him open the door to my room and entered. After a couple of seconds, he came out of the
WHITNEY'S POV I was sort of scared and worried because I don't know how my parents will take the news of the pregnancy, especially my mother. I averted my eyes to her. She had stopped sobbing and was now whimpering and sniffling. I heard a voice in my head ask me why should I be worried and scared and that I need to brace up. The sooner I tell them and get it off my mind, the better for me. "Whitney, it's already late, and I'm supposed to be in bed by now as well as your mother. Your mother and I had to sacrifice our time to listen to what you had to say. I have a lot of work to do tomorrow. I don't have all the time in the world. Tell us everything that is bothering you. We will listen to you and find a solution to them. I am waiting for your response to my question," my father said. As I wanted to speak, my lips suddenly felt heavy but I braced up. "About two weeks ago, I realized that I have been feeling sick. At first, I thought it was a fever and told Martin about it. He ga
WHITNEY'S POV As soon as I returned to Luther's father's house, I sent my brother to Luther's house to bring Jason to me. When he returned with my son, I carefully examined him to be sure that Jaya had not done any harm to him. After a thorough examination, I didn't find any reason to be worried and I was relieved. I was so emotional and exhausted and couldn't go back the following day after the battle with Luther and his warriors. When Alpha Vicker called me on the phone, I narrated all that happened to him and he was shocked. He was happy that I survived and Jason is safe, however, he was elated that Luther is dead. Alpha Vicker told me to stay as long as I want in Montgomery since Luther is dead and I have had my revenge against all those that hurt me. My parents and my brother told me they were among the crowd during the battle. They said they saw me levitating and they were gobsmacked. They couldn't come to plead on my behalf because they were scared Lu
After some minutes, Luther ordered his warriors to ceasefire until the sorcerers subdue Whitney's power in order not to waste the bullets. Meanwhile, Jaya, Luther's Luna was among the crowd and has been watching Whitney. From where she stood, she tried to use her power to subdue Whitney's power and kill her but it did not affect her. She made several attempts but it was futile. It dawned on her that Whitney was so powerful and her power was no match for hers.As she realized that there was nothing she could do to Whitney, she decided to go after Jason and kill him. She turned around and started walking briskly to Luther's father's house. She got to the gate and told the security guard to open the gate. He greeted her respectfully as Luther's Luna and quickly opened the gate. Jaya walked through the gate and stood in front of the mansion. She started reciting incantations and commanded everyone in the house to fall into a deep sleep. Then, she turned around and saw t
Whitney was filled with rage as she stared at Luther and his warriors. After some seconds, she commanded a wall of fire to surround her for protection. Instantly, a circle of fire surrounded her. Her feet left the ground and she started levitating. Luther and his warriors stopped laughing abruptly. They raised their heads and stared at Whitney with a mixture of shock and awe as she hovered in the air. The sorcerers were also taken aback and they gazed at Whitney with disbelief. Whitney stretched her arm toward Luther's father's house and commanded the spell cast on everyone in the house to be broken. Then, she averted her gaze to look at Luther, his warriors, and the sorcerers who were all beneath her as she hovered above them. For some seconds, she glared at them as her eyes burned with anger. "Luther, I could have killed you some months ago when you attacked me and tried to take away my son but I felt sorry for you and spared your life despite all the pains and trauma you cau
Before Whitney went to bed at night on the day she arrived at Montgomery, she spoke with Alpha Vicker several times on the phone and he told her to be very careful for the one week she will be staying in Montgomery. The following day, Whitney gave her family the things she bought for them and they were elated. She got acquainted with Venus, her brother's mate, and her two kids loved her. Whitney's kids also loved Martin and her parents and they all doted on her kids. The fact that Jason was Luther's biological son coupled with his uncanny resemblance to him didn't make Whitney's family treat him differently from her other kids. He was loved by all of Whitney's family. Since Whitney's battle with Luther and his warriors, she spoke to her brother and parents several times on the phone but didn't tell them about her supernatural power and how she used it to deal with Luther and his warriors. Whitney felt it was time she let them know about her supernatural power and al
WHITNEY'S POV I was drifting in and out of sleep as we drove to Montgomery. From time to time, we stopped and I bought snacks and drinks for my kids and everyone in the car as well as for the people in the Mercedes Benz. I spoke a few times throughout the journey cos I was lost in thoughts. I thought about how my family lived in poverty right from when I was a child and all the significant things that happened during my childhood. I thought of when Luther raped me and the series of events that happened after that to when I ran from Nashville and met Alpha Vicker. Although most parts of my life were turbulent, I am grateful that my life has changed significantly and I'm now happy and at peace. As I'm now living a blissful life, I also want my parents and brother with his family to live comfortably and happily. One of my main plans is to buy a house for them in Nashville and take them from Montgomery. I intend to also set up any business of their choice for them. After a
SIX MONTHS AFTER WHITNEY'S POV On a weekend, six months after sparing Luther's life and a month after Jason turned seven, and had a grand birthday party, I was sitting on my bed in the room and I was packing my bags and my kids' bags. The time was 8:30 am. I was going back to Montgomery with my three kids after seven years of living in Nashville without seeing my parents and my brother. Rachel, my kids' nanny was dressing my kids up in their room and Alpha Vicker went to the parkhouse very early in the morning to resolve an issue. I decided to return to Montgomery after much pleading from my parents and brother soon after the battle with Luther and his warriors. I felt I have been on self-exile from Montgomery for too long and it was time for me to visit my family. After so much pressure from my family to come to Montgomery, I made up my mind to go. However, when I told Alpha Vicker that I want to go to Montgomery with the kids to see my family, he vehemently refused.
WHITNEY'S POV The full moon and stars in the sky illuminated the whole place and the pole lights on both sides of the highway shone brightly making me see everything clearly. The smell of charred bodies filled the air as I watched Luther's car burn with fury in my eyes. I thought Luther was in the burning car and didn't know that he fell out of the car into the ditch and lost consciousness. After a couple of minutes of gazing at the burning car as I was still levitating, I turned around to look at the charred bodies and bones of the warriors burnt to different degrees. All of them were dead. As I gazed at the horrific scene, tears welled up in my eyes and I became very emotional. With all the strength I could muster, I banished my emotions. I descended till my feet touched the ground and walked slowly to Luther's burning car. I stretched my arm toward it and commanded the fire to go off. Instantly, the fire went off and everywhere was filled with smoke. I
Whitney was filled with rage as she sped down the well-lit highway due to the pole light. Aside from that, the full moon's pale light illuminated the whole place. She drove past a few cars that had parked by the side of the highway due to the storm and the thick fog which had worsened. Considering how severe the storm and fog were, there was no way anyone could drive in the weather which made Whitney to be a little bit relaxed cos she believed Luther must have parked by the side of the road. As Whitney drove, she saw various items on the highway such as shrubs, grasses, cans, and other things blown by the wind, and on both sides of the highway, there were fallen trees that had been uprooted by the fierce wind. After driving for about thirty minutes, it struck her that she doesn't know Luther's car and she became worried and confused. Just then, she looked ahead of her and saw the convoy of four SUVs that followed Luther's car. The cars were all parked by the sid
For some seconds, Whitney and Alpha Vicker cuddled before they disengaged. "Why were you unconscious?" Whitney asked with curiosity. "Luther and I fought fiercely and he hit me with that sculpture on the floor, and I fainted," he said as he pointed at the sculpture. "Oh my goodness! He could have killed you. Luther is such an evil man. He wants Jason by all means. Unfortunately, he will never have him as long as I live," Whitney said with anger in her eyes."Thank goodness that he didn't kill me. I'm okay. I don't feel any pain," he said as he touched the part of his head that was bleeding. "You don't feel any pain because I healed you before reviving you," Whitney said. "Wow...I didn't know that. Anyway, thank you," he said with a smile as he patted her cheek. "You are welcome," she said as she smiled back at him. "My Luna, hurry up now and revive all my injured warriors and go after Luther and bring my son," he said. "I will but I can only revive those that are still alive.
