WHITNEY'S POV"Whitney, please, don't ever say you will commit suicide. That is such a horrible statement. You know how much I love you. You are my only sibling and you mean the world to me," he said with a pleading tone."If you love me as you claim, then, why are causing me so much pain? You should have considered the physical and mental trauma I have suffered since I was raped and should have tried as much as you can to alleviate it but instead, you are causing me more pain. No matter how you feel about my pregnancy, I expected you to be understanding and accept my decision but you have vehemently refused to..." I paused as he cut in."Will you shut up! Yes, I know that you have been traumatized and I want you to get over it and that is one of the main reasons I want you to abort the pregnancy!" he roared. "What you are saying doesn't make sense to me. In what way would terminating my pregnancy make me get over the trauma?" I asked. "If you terminate the pregnancy, you may not im
WHITNEY'S POVI sat on the bed and cried for a couple of minutes. I felt bad because I knew my decision to keep the pregnancy against all odds have hurt a lot of people dear to me, especially my brother and parents but I have no other option. I just can't imagine ending the life of my growing fetus. I hope everyone I have offended and who feels aggrieved because of my decision will find it in their heart to forgive me. My eyes swept across the room and I couldn't help comparing it to my room in Alpha Don's house. Despite I have been here since yesterday, I still found it hard to believe that I'm not dreaming. "Thank you, Moon Goddess for all the things you are doing for me," I muttered and let out a sigh. I felt claustrophobic and bored cos I have not left the room since yesterday, so, I decided to leave the room and go to the backyard and read but first, I need to go to the library and get a novel. I stood up, walked to the bathroom, and washed my face. I walked back to the room
WHITNEY'S POV For some seconds, Alpha Vicker stared at me with a puzzled expression. "Whitney, what do you mean by I shouldn't worry and what do mean by your family and Alpha Don will not bother you again? What did you tell them?" he asked with curiosity. I was silent for a moment as I stared at him because I didn't know what to say. I didn't want to tell him that I threatened my brother and Alpha Don. "Well, I just made my brother understand that even though I'm a minor, I can still make some decisions on my own and thank goodness he understood," I said. He was silent for a moment as he gazed at me. "Whitney, I have a feeling that you did more than that," he said. I was shocked to hear his statement and I wondered what made him suspect I lied to him. He must be very intelligent. I concluded. "Alpha Vicker, why did you say that? What are you insinuating?" I asked. "I believe strongly that you told your brother something that made him decide to leave you alone because accor
WHITNEY'S POV For some seconds, we gazed at each other. I averted my eyes and looked at his lips and felt like kissing them. I felt so attracted to him that it was as if an invisible magnet was pulling me to him. I was struggling with my body which was yearning for him. "Whitney, are you sure that your threat is enough to make your family and Alpha Don leave you alone?" Alpha Vicker asked. "Yes, I believe so," I replied. "Just to be very sure, I will like to speak to Alpha Don and your brother," he said. Fear gripped my heart because I didn't want him to talk to them. I started thinking of what to tell him so that he will not call them. "Alpha, it is not necessary to call them. I'm very sure that with the threat I have given them, they will not bother me anymore," I said. "I'm not saying that I don't believe you. I only said I want to be sure that they will not call the police or will not be searching for you themselves. The last thing I want is for anyone to accuse me of harb
WHITNEY'S POVFor a couple of seconds, I was crying. I couldn't believe that Martin could accuse and hurl invective at me."Whitney, why are you crying, huh? You can cry for all I care! Did you expect me to applaud you after you ran away from home which almost drove me mad and caused mom and dad so much pain? As if that was not enough, you had the nerve to threaten Alpha Don and me just because we want you to abort that unwanted pregnancy. We all want the best for you but unfortunately, you are too stupid to see that!" he said angrily. "I may be a minor but I know what I want. I understand why everyone wants me to abort the pregnancy which is logical but all of you have to also see it from my perspective. I just can't fathom why none of you want to understand me," I said as I sniveled and wiped my tears with my hands. "From what fucking perspective do you want us to see your stupid decision! Listen to me carefully. If you think I will ever understand your crazy decision or consider
WHITNEY'S POVI stared into space for a couple of minutes as I thought of my mom and dad. I imagined how distraught they would probably be since I left. I wish I could go back home and spend some time with them as my brother suggested but that is impossible. I don't need a soothsayer to tell me that if I dare go back home, my brother and Alpha Don are bound to take me to the hospital forcefully and abort my pregnancy. Besides, they might likely not let me come back to Nashville again and that would be the end of my dream of being Alpha Vicker's mate. I was filled with sorrow and let out a sad sigh. I thought of my colleagues in Alpha Don's house and all my friends in the pack. I tried to imagine their reactions when they found out I ran away from home. Although I have only been in Nashville for a few days, I must admit that I miss everyone dear to me in Montgomery. I hope to see them someday but for now, my priority is how to develop mysel
WHITNEY'S POVSeeing the jealousy on their faces, I knew I might have problems with them and I resolved to do my best to make sure I get very close to them. Hopefully, that would assuage their jealousy. "Whitney, you are employed as a maid and you ought to be staying here with us. I don't understand why Alpha Vicker wants you to stay in the guest room," Vera said with eyes filled with envy. "Yes, Vera is right. You are employed as a maid like us, so, why are you given exceptional treatment? If I may ask, how did you meet Alpha Vicker? Did he hire you through an agency the way Vera and I were hired?" Felicia asked with curiosity. Gosh! How do I answer the question? The two of them are sounding bitter. They don't know that Alpha Vicker met me sleeping outside his house and offered me employment right there. Thank goodness that they don't know cos If they had known, they would have been more baffled. Although I don't also know why Alpha Vicker is giving me exceptional treatment as a
WHITNEY'S POV"Vera, so you really think Alpha Vicker is searching for a mate?" I asked."Of course. I am very certain," she replied."I also think so," Felicia said. "Hmmm...I must admit that the things that you have told me about Sophia make me curious to meet her," I said."Really? We can't remember telling you anything good about Sophia, so, why should you be curious to meet her?" Felicia said with surprise. "Yeah, I know that you have only told me horrible things about her but I want to meet her just to satisfy my curiosity," I replied."When you meet her, you will know that all we have said about her is true and I'm sure you will wish you never met her," Vera said laughing and Felicia roared into laughter. "She will probably come tomorrow which is Saturday cos she comes to visit Alpha Vicker most weekends," Felicia said. I was really eager and curious to meet Sophia. I hope she will come tomorrow. I was beginning to feel drowsy and I decided to go to bed. At least to
