A month after my seventeenth birthday, my pregnancy was now eight months. I had added weight but I was not fat. I was now having antenatal appointments at the hospital every two weeks and Alpha Vicker takes me to the hospital on my appointment days. Aside from that, I was religiously taking my medications cos I want to give birth to a healthy child. Alpha Vicker was pampering me and I was now craving different things virtually every day and he always gets me anything I want. However, most times, I crave chocolates and cookies. Anyone that doesn't know that Alpha Vicker is just being gracious would think he is the father of my baby. Seeing the way Alpha Vicker was treating me, everyone in the house now talks to me with the utmost respect including the maids. The maids serve my meals morning, afternoon, and evening with lots of fruits and vegetables which I love. They come back later to take away the dishes. I felt I was being over-
WHITNEY'S POV I suddenly regained consciousness as I felt something cold on my body. I slowly opened my eyes and saw that my hair and dress were drenched with water. I raised my head and realized that I was in the forest. It was already dark but there was a full moon in the sky with several stars casting their pale light in the forest. My eyes swept from my dress dripping with water to my legs and I let out a gasp of shock as I realized that my hands and legs were tied with a Manila rope to a large oak tree. I raised my head and my eyes swept around the forest. Fear gripped my heart as I could hear the distant sounds of wild animals. What am I doing here? I wondered as I tried to remember where I was before I found myself here. I closed my eyes and suddenly, the scene flashed in my head. I remembered when I told Phillip at the gate of Alpha Vicker's mansion that I was going for a walk on the street and I recall when I was walking back home and suddenly, a Toyot
WHITNEY'S POV I was silent as I gazed at Sophia who was glaring at me with eyes filled with hatred. I wondered how the men she sent to kidnap me knew that I would come out yesterday. I decided to ask her."Sophia, if I may ask, how did the men you sent yesterday to kidnap me know that I would be coming out by that time?" I asked."They didn't know. Since Alpha Vicker broke up with me, I gave the men instruction to always keep vigil over Alpha's Vicker's mansion. So, they have been coming everyday to the street and keeping vigil over Alpha Vicker's house since he broke up with me. I instructed them to kidnap you anytime they see you come out of his house alone," she paused to catch her breath. "At a point, the men got tired because they have never seen you come out of the house with someone let alone being by yourself. The only times they saw you, you were with Alpha Vicker in his car.They told me that they don't want to continue keeping vigil over Alpha Vicker's house and
ALPHA VICKER'S POV It was past midnight and I was pacing up and down in my room because Whitney didn't come back home yesterday evening after she told Philip that she was going for a walk. I had earlier lay on my bed but couldn't sleep. For over two hours, I tossed and turned in bed as I wondered what happened to her and where she could be. Even though I have only known Whitney for some months, to a large extent, I know her personality and can predict her actions in different circumstances. That she would just leave the house and go somewhere without telling me is unlike her. So, I didn't need a soothsayer to tell me that something was awfully wrong. How could she be missing? Where could she have gone to? A voice in my head was telling me that she has been kidnapped cos I see no reason why she would run away from home. But if she is actually kidnapped, who would kidnap an innocent young girl like Whitney? To make matter worse, she is heavily pregnant. I was deeply troubled
SOPHIA'S POV After I shifted into a wolf and bit Whitney, I was elated when I heard her cry in agony. I then ran to my car which I parked beside a dogwood tree and shifted back to human. Before I got into the car, I laughed heartily for some seconds. I then entered the car, started it, and drove away. As I drove out of the Hill forest onto the road, I recall my conversation with Whitney. Imagine that idiot begging me to forgive her. She must be very stupid if she thinks I'm ever going to forgive her. That bitch hurt me so badly. I thought of all that I have suffered at the hands of Whitney ranging from hurling insults at me, beating me to the extent I was hospitalized, getting pregnant with Alpha Vicker and lying about it, making Alpha Vicker break up with me, to taking him away from me. No one has ever humiliated me the way Whitney has. The most annoying part is that she claims to be a maid which I know is a blatant lie. Whiney and Alpha Vicker have been trying to play a t
SOPHIA'S POV The alarm clock buzzed insistently and I woke up. I reached out to hit the snooze button as I glance at the time. It was six o'clock which is usually my waking time. Thank goodness, today is Saturday. If it was a weekday, I would have to start preparing to go to work. As I lay on the bed, I averted my gaze to the ceiling. I was feeling tired and my eyes were heavy due to lack of sleep. This morning, I will be going to see Alpha Vicker to beg him to forgive me and accept me back as his girlfriend. However, I must admit that I'm a bit worried cos I remember how angry he was the last time I saw him when he broke up with me. Another reason why I'm worried is that he might probably not listen to me cos I know he will be agitated because of Whitney. My mind drifted to Whitney as I wondered about her present state. I recall how she screamed in agony when I bit her and I felt elated. She might still be bleeding from the wounds I infli
ALPHA VICKER'S POV To say I was shocked to see Sophia in my house is an understatement. Since I broke up with her, I have not set my eyes on her and I had thought I will never see her again. But now, she is in my house and standing in front of me. I could see that her eyes were puffy and wondered why. "Alpha, since you have broken up with me, I have tried to reach you on the phone but you refused to answer my calls until you blocked me from calling you. Please, find it in your heart to forgive me," she said with a gentle tone. "Sophia, get it into your thick skull that I am done with you for good! My relationship with you is over! To be honest with you, I thought I will never set my eyes on you again and now you are here standing in front of me. Damn!" I roared. "I will appreciate it if you stop shouting and calm down. As I said before, I just want to talk to you," she said. "Well, I don't want to see you let alone talk to you!" I said angrily. She was silent for a moment as s
ALPHA VICKER'S POV As I gazed in shock at the inscription on the pendant of the necklace, suddenly, Sophia rushed at me and snatched the necklace from my hands. She ran out of the room and I immediately followed her. I started pursuing her as she ran down the stairs and I was on her tail. Sophia jumped on the landing of the staircase, ran into the living room, and headed to the entrance door. I heard the maids gasp in shock but I didn't look at them as I ran after her. Sophia ran outside the house and headed to her car and I followed closely behind her. I saw Philip and Steven who stared at us with widened eyes and mouth agape. As Sophia got to her car, she tried to open the car door but it was locked and she was panic-stricken. I guess her car key is in her handbag which she left on the floor in my room because she was desperate to get away with the necklace I bought for Whitney. Sophia was in frenzy a
