WHITNEY'S POVAs Adam Smith was groaning in pain and writhing on the ground, I looked around me to see if anyone was around. I didn't see anyone. "What have you done to me, you witch!" Adam Smith said as he clutched his legs in pain. "You brought it upon yourself! How dare you send men to kidnap my kids? As if that is not enough, you had the effrontery to slap me. Mr. Adam Smith, this is the beginning of your suffering," I said. "You evil woman! If you don't want your life to be ruined, you better restore my health back cos I will make sure I destroy you, Alpha Vicker, and I will kill your kids!" he bellowed. "A million of you cannot do anything to Alpha Vicker, and my kids let alone me. To be honest with you, I have never seen a foolish man like you. You are at my mercy and instead of you to be pleading with me to restore your health, you have the nerve to threaten to destroy me, Alpha Vicker, and even threaten to kill my kids. You must be very stupid to say that!" I said with a
WHITNEY'S POV I suddenly became anxious and took a deep breath as I tried to calm down. What sort of trouble could Martin be talking about? My mind drifted to Mom and Dad and fear gripped my heart. I hope nothing has happened to them. I must say that it was recently I gave Martin my phone number after refusing to give him all these years. I eventually gave him my phone number after so much pleas from him and my parents. That was why he was able to call me on the phone. "Martin, what do you mean by there is trouble? I hope Dad and Mom are okay," I said. "Yes, they are okay. It is not about them," he said as I heaved a sigh of relief. "If it's not about them, then, who is it about?" I asked. "It's about you," he said bluntly. "About me?" I asked with surprise. "Yes." "I have not been to Montgomery for over six years and I have been living in Nashville ever since then, so, how could anything happening there possibly concern me?" I asked with curiosity. "Before I answer
WHITNEY'S POV "Whiney, are you there?" Martin asked as I was trembling with rage. I took a deep breath as I tried to calm my nerves. "Yes, Martin," I replied. "Okay. I know you must be furious now but you brought this upon yourself cos if you had not divulged the secret to Janet, Luther and his family would have still not known that you didn't abort the pregnancy let alone know that you gave birth to Jason," Martin said with anger. "Martin, words can't describe the rage I feel right now. How could Janet betray me after promising me that she would keep the secret?" I said with eyes blazing in anger. "Whitney, to be honest, I don't blame Janet, it is you I blame. Janet was your best friend and I believe you know her character better than anyone. Everyone in the pack knows she is cunning, deceitful, treacherous, promiscuous and a liar. She had numerous vices. You knew all these as well, yet she is the one you chose as your best friend. Now she has revealed the secret you have su
WHITNEY'S POV After some seconds of fuming in anger, I took a deep breath as I tried to calm my nerves. I told Martin to stop talking about Luther and he changed the subject. He started telling me about the latest news in Shadow Pack and told me what is happening in the lives of some of my friends and people I know in the pack. "Martin, I must say that I really miss my old friends in Shadow Pack and all my colleagues we worked together for years in Luther's father's house. I can't believe it's been over six years since I last saw them," I said as I recall some of the moments I shared with them. "Your colleagues here in Luther's father's house always tell me how much they miss you as well as your old friends in the pack. They always tell me that they will like to see you and ask when you will come to Montgomery. I usually tell them I have no idea and that I will let them know as soon as you tell me," he said. "Wow...good to know they also miss me," I said cheerfully. "Whitney,
WHITNEY'S POV I gazed at Alpha Veron as he was trembling with rage. "My Luna, I can't believe that fucking Luther wants to come to Nashville to lay claim to my son after six years. I remember all that you told me that he and his family did to you and they were hell-bent that you must abort the pregnancy which made you run from Montgomery and come to Nashville. I recall how miserable and dejected you looked when I saw you sleeping under the tree in front of my house the first time I saw you," he paused to catch his breath. "Anything could have happened to you sleeping by the roadside. You could have been raped, abducted, or even killed. When I saw you that morning, I was shocked and quickly walked up to you. I was even more shocked when I realized that you were a teenager and after you told me your situation, I decided to help you and employed you as my maid..." he paused as I cut in. "I remember that day, it was just like yesterday. I will be forever grateful that you came to my
LUTHER'S POV The time was a quarter after six in the evening. I was sitting on my bed in my room and packing the suitcase I want to use to travel to Nashville tomorrow. The things I was taking with me were in a pile on the bed. They include some casual clothes, two shoes, a shaving kit, toiletries, a wallet containing cash and my credit card, two fully loaded pistols, and five cartridges. It is now two weeks since my mother and sister came to my room to tell me about their silly dreams thinking it would scare me and make me change my mind about going to Nashville to take my son from Whitney. As I was folding my clothes and putting the items in the suitcase, I paused as my mind drifted to what happened in the past couple of weeks. I had planned to stay in a hotel when I get to Nashville but Rico cajoled me to stay in his place and not waste my money on a hotel. Another reason he gave was that I need to stay in his place because I may not be able to take my son by myself withou
LUTHER'S POV "Henry, did you just say you will not leave my room?" I asked with disbelief. "Yes, you heard me right! I will only leave when I am done talking to you and you have to listen to me!" he bellowed. "How dare you talk to me like that? So you have the nerve to come to my room and tell me to my face that you will not leave?" I asked with an incredulous expression. "I repeat, I won't leave until you listen to me!" he said angrily. "That you are my brother doesn't give you the right to disobey me! I am your alpha and I can punish you for disobeying me!" I roared. "Yes, I know you have the power to punish me but only when I do something wrong. In this situation, I am not doing anything wrong. I just asked you if the news I heard about you traveling to Nashville is true and you flared up. All I want is a fucking answer from you!" he spat. I was silent for a moment as I glared at me. I found it hard to believe that my younger brother had the temerity to be asking me
WHITNEY'S POV Alpha Vicker gave me leave from work for two months the following week after the two of us planned what to do to protect our kids from Luther. It was the month of June and coincidentally, the kids who had just finished their exams were on a school break for ten weeks. I was happy cos now that the kids are at home and I'm on leave from work, I will be able to protect them better. The following morning after I started my leave, I was sleeping on the bed when Alpha Vicker woke me up and told me that he was going to the pack to have a meeting with his strongest warriors. He said he will select six among them that will come to the house to protect the kids. After kissing me lightly on the lips, he left the room. I felt so grateful to have him in my life. A smile spread across my face as I stared at the ceiling. I must say that many times when I'm alone, I sometimes imagine how my life would have been without him which always make me shudder in trepidation. It 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.
