WHITNEY'S POVMy eyes welled with tears as I gazed at my dad staring intently at the test result while the doctor was looking at him with a concerned expression. Slowly, my dad turned his head to look at me and we made eye contact. "Dad, I guess I'm pregnant, right?" I asked with an emotionally laden voice. He simply nodded without uttering a word. He was motionless as he stood staring at me and the expression on his face showed that he was struggling to contain his pain. Tears that were threatening to pour from my eyes that I have been struggling to hold back, suddenly, ran down my face cos I could no longer hold them back. He beckoned to me and I walked slowly to meet him. He wrapped his arm around me and I lay my head against his chest. I felt miserable and it was as if my life has fallen apart. As I lay my head against my dad's chest, tears were streaming from my eyes without a sound coming from my mouth. I was in deep pain and I trembled with emotions.
WHITNEY'S POVI felt miserable as I gazed at my mom's happy face. I stole a glance at my dad and he was keeping a deadpan face.My mom turned to look at my dad and said, "Dear, this is such good news. I have been so worried since she told us about the pregnancy. Now that the result is negative, I feel so elated," she said smiling. "Yeah, I feel very happy too. I just want you to get well as quickly as possible so that you will be discharged and I can take you home," my dad said feigning a smile."Oh, now that I have heard this good news, I'm sure I will get well soon cos my heart is filled with joy," she said beaming with a smile. "Pardon me, ma'am, I can see that you look very happy which is good for your condition. May I know the reason why?" the nurse asked with a friendly smile. My mom turned her head to look at her."Nurse, my daughter thought that she was pregnant and when she told me and her dad, my mind was shattered cos I feel she is too young to have a child and I know th
WHITNEY'S POVA loud knock on my door jolted me from my sleep. I rose from my bed and sat up staring at the door and wondering who it could be. After a moment, I got up from the bed and walked sluggishly to open the door. My brother was standing in front of me with a smile on his face. I smiled back and moved aside to make way for him to come inside. I watched him as he entered with a heavy-looking paper bag in his hand. I knew there were fruits in it and I felt happy cos I was craving fruits, especially apples. "Good morning, I greeted him."This is an afternoon not morning. Didn't you look at the time?" he replied as he stared at me. I glanced at the clock, it was 1:45 p.m. I was surprised and put my hand to my mouth in a gesture of shock. "Oh, gosh! I never knew the time as gone so fast!" I exclaimed in shock. "Really? What were you doing?" he asked as he walked toward my table and dropped the paper bag on it, then, sat on the chair beside the bed."I was sleeping,
WHITNEY'S POVI was trembling with trepidation as my brother unfolded the test result and gazed at it. At first, he had an impassive countenance but within a split second, he looked horrified and confused. Then he raised his head and we made eye contact. His eyes were filled with pain and his brow creased in confusion. "Whitney, what is the meaning of this?" he asked in an emotionally laden voice that did not sound like his voice.I gazed at him in confusion. I didn't know how to respond to his question. I tried to speak but my lips suddenly became too heavy for me and no sound came from my mouth. I was staring at him like someone in a trance. Instantly, tears welled up in my eyes."Whitney, I just asked you a question. I said what is the meaning of this? Is this the test result you brought from the hospital?" he asked with an icy tone that made me shiver.A series of emotions rushed through me. I was scared, confused, miserable, and in great sorrow for the pain, I have caused my bro
WHITNEY'S POV"Whitney, do you mean that dad knows you are pregnant?" Martin asked with shock on his face."Yes, he knows," I affirmed."Oh, my goodness! What is happening in our family? How can you keep such a thing from me or am I no longer part of this family?" he asked with an incredulous expression. "Martin, don't be upset. We deliberately didn't tell you for a good reason and dad said he will tell you soon. It's quite unfortunate that you got to find out this way," I replied as I wiped tears from my eyes."Really? Is that all you have to say? You have no idea how all of these makes me feel. Dad knew that you are pregnant and decided to keep it away from me. I thought that we are a family. Aren't families supposed to be aware of what is happening in the lives of each other? Oh, gosh! I am utterly disappointed in you and dad," he said with a look of disgust on his face. "Martin, please, calm down. You are getting yourself unnecessarily worked up...""Stop telling me that! I feel
WHITNEY'S POV"Whitney, I'm waiting for you. Tell me how you got pregnant and more importantly who impregnated you," Martin said with a mixture of curiosity and anxiety.I was staring at him and I was filled with fear cos I know he is going to be shocked and furious once I mention Luther's name, and he will probably lose his mind when I tell him that Luther raped me. I didn't need a soothsayer to tell me that cos I know how much he despises him. I opened my mouth to speak but no sound came out. The fear enveloped me and made me slightly tremble. Oh, Moon Goddess, help me. I prayed.Just then, there was a loud knock on the door, and Martin and I turned to look at the door at same time. Who could that be? I wondered. I wished that it would be my dad but I believed he is not the one cos he and my mom rarely come to see me during the day. Anytime they want to see me, they usually come in the evenings after their work. As I wanted to get up from the bed to open the door, Martin said, "W
WHITNEY'S POV"Dad, if I may ask, why do you want to speak for Whitney? She is the bone of contention and should be the one to tell me happened. Why can't she tell me herself?" Martin asked."She can't because you can see that she is distressed. I will tell you the little that she has told me then, you can ask her any other questions," dad said. "Okay. So who impregnated her?" he asked with a mixture of curiosity and anxiety."Before I tell you his name which I know will come as a shock to you, I want you to promise me that you will stay calm till I finish talking," dad said.He was silent for a moment as he stared at him thoughtfully. "Dad, why did you say the name of the man who impregnated Whitney will come as a shock to me?" "Just be patient and listen to me. As I said before just try to be calm until I finish talking, okay?" "Alright, dad. I'm listening," he replied with impatience. "Luther is the one who impregnated Whitney," dad blurted. Immediately, Martin jumped up from
WHITNEY'S POV"Please, forgive me," Martin pleaded as he continued to sob.I reached out to his face and started wiping his tears. "I don't hold any grudge against you cos I know that your outburst was out of anger and ignorance. I have forgiven you, my dear brother," I said as tears streamed down my face."Thank you," he said and gave me a peck on my forehead. He hugged me warmly with a smile on his face and wiped my tears."Please, stop crying. I know I have hurt you badly but I promise I will make it up to you," he said in a whisper.Suddenly, dad coughed to get our attention, and Martin and I disengaged and turned to look at him. "I'm happy to see that the two of you have resolved your differences. Whitney, there is a lot to talk about concerning the issue of your pregnancy. I will have to let the Alpha know as soon as possible and we will hear what he has to say. I have to go back to the packhouse. I have a lot of patients waiting for me," he said as he stood up."Dad, how is
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.
