WHITNEY'S POVI stood transfixed in the hallway close to the door to my brother's room as I stared at Lilian. She was walking down the hallway but oblivious to my presence cos she was gazing at the floor as she cried in a low tone probably because she didn't want anyone to hear.I started walking toward her and the sound of my footsteps jolted her. She raised her head and she froze as she saw me. She was shocked to see me and immediately stopped crying and raised her hand to her face to wipe her tears. I noticed that her face was swollen.We gazed at each other as I approached her. As I got closer to her, in a split second, the shock on her face disappeared and was replaced with a scowl."What are you doing in the hallway by this time of the night?" she spat."I should be asking you that," I replied as I stood a few inches away from her. "You have no right to ask me that because this is my dad's house. You are a wretched maid that was just privileged to be living with us," she said w
WHITNEY'S POVI was gripped with fear as I stared at Lilian lying unconscious on the floor cos she was already in a bad state before I slapped her.Though she was the one that provoked me, nonetheless, I shouldn't have slapped her back and should have restrained myself but I knew that would not have been possible cos I was enraged. How could a girl I'm older than insult and slap me and I would not retaliate? I don't care if she is the daughter of the alpha. No one hits me and go scot-free.My eyes swept over Lilian and seeing her swollen face, torn clothes, and trails of blood on her legs, I felt sorry for her. Suddenly, it struck me that she might die if I don't resuscitate her fast, so, I ran to my room and rushed into the bathroom. I picked a bowl from a bucket, filled it with water and rushed out of the room. I rushed to where Lilian was lying and sprinkled some water on her. She quivered and began to groan in pain.After some seconds, her eyelids fluttered and she opened her e
WHITNEY'S POVI was jolted from my sleep by the alarm clock. I quickly turned it off and glanced at the time. It was 3:00 am. Although I was feeling tired and drowsy, I had to get up and prepare for my trip. I stretched my body and sat up for a few seconds. Then, I got up from the bed and stripped off my night dress. I walked sluggishly into the bathroom and quickly had a shower.After drying my body, I walked back into the room and took my body lotion on top of drawer. I quickly applied it on my entire body and slipped into my undies. I picked up the blue flowery dress I hung by the window that I had set aside to wear for my trip. It was one of my favorite dresses. I slipped into the dress and sprayed perfume on it and some parts of my body. I then hurriedly brushed my hair. After I had finished brushing my hair, I brought down the rucksack I want to travel with which was on top of the wardrobe.I opened the bag and gazed at my clothes that
MARTIN'S POVI walked into the living room of the alpha's mansion feeling exhausted and drowsy due to the all-night birthday party I had with my friends.I saw two of the maids cleaning the living room and I greeted them. They responded with a smile. I started going up the stairs as I thought of Whitney. Whitney ought to be working with the maids but the alpha has given her a week off because of the abortion that she is going for. According to the alpha, after the abortion today, she will be given six more days to recuperate which makes the total number of days one week. I stepped into the hallway and stopped in my tracks. I glanced at my wristwatch. The time was 6:05 am. Gosh! The alpha said he will be leaving for the hospital with Whitney by 7 am and I told him as well as Whitney that I'm going to the hospital with them. I need to get prepared as fast as possible.I started walking down the hallway as my mind was filled with the thoughts of my sister.
MARTIN'S POVAs I sat on the floor of Whitney's room crying, I thought of all the times we shared right from when we are kids till yesterday night when I saw her last. I recalled that she was downcast throughout yesterday and I did my best to make her happy. Suddenly, it dawned on me that she was probably downcast yesterday because she had planned to run away from home today.I recalled when I came to see her in the afternoon and spent some time with her but when I told her that I will be going to the birthday party and might not see her till today, she begged me to come and see her again before I leave for the party. I recalled how over-emotional she was when I came to see her yesterday late in the evening before I left for the party. I just could not comprehend why Whitney who I have always known to be strong suddenly became a crybaby. It was quite unlike her to be that emotional. I knew there was something troubling her that she was hiding from me and that was w
WHITNEY'S POVAfter leaving the nosey woman I met on my way to the bus station, I got there at a couple of minutes to five. Because my mind has been occupied with so many thoughts, I have forgotten to find out the time the earliest bus to Nashville comes to the station. I became worried and hoped it has not arrived and left before I got there. As for the bus fares, although I don't know how much it is, I wasn't worried cos I know the money with me can get me to Nashville and I will still have some money left because I know that Montgomery was not too far from Nashville. However, I realized that I need some information as regards my journey, so, I need to find someone to ask. My eyes swept across the bus station and I saw seven passengers who were obviously waiting for the bus. There were four men and three women sitting on the bus station waiting chairs. By the left side of the waiting chairs, I saw a ticket counter and a young lady was sitting behind a desk and w
WHITNEY'S POVMy heart was in my mouth as I was hearing the footsteps of my brother and Alpha Don coming toward the trash can I was hiding behind. I didn't need a soothsayer to tell me that if I'm caught, I will be taken straight to the hospital and my pregnancy will be aborted. Aside from that, the Alpha is bound to punish me. Of course, I know my brother and parents will berate me so much. As their footsteps approaches the trash can, I was filled with fear and was quivering but tried as much as possible not to make any sound.Oh, Moon Goddess, help me, I prayed in my heart."Martin, it's obvious that she is not here and we can't keep looking for her this way. I think we need to go to the police station to make a report," Alpha Don said. "Alpha Don, you know the ticket agent said she ran towards this direction and it was shortly before we arrived, so, I don't think she could have gone far. Maybe, she is hiding somewhere," Martin said. "If she is hiding somewhere, it's obvious is
WHITNEY'S POVAs the bus sped on the highway, I was agitated cos my mind was in turmoil until after about an hour when I began to calm down. I wondered how my brother and the Alpha will react when they get to the bus station with the police and realized that the bus to Nashville have left and I believe they will know that I left with the bus.I imagined how angry my brother will be with the Alpha cos he didn't want to go to the police station with him but the alpha coerced him. I recall he even suggested to wait at the bus station till the bus to Nashville arrives while Alpha Don goes to the police station alone but the Alpha refused. I guess now that I have left, my brother will blame Alpha Don for giving me the chance to leave Montgomery. Anyway, I'm glad that Alpha Don insisted that my brother goes to the police station with him cos if he had stayed back at the bus station while Alpha Don goes to the police station alone, there is no way I would have been
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.
