Sapphire’s POV The house was filled with silence. The only sound that filled the room was the clock I was staring at. Time seemed to be so slow as the longer hand ticked every second. It seemed like a normal clock but I was seeing something else. It was telling me something else.By the time the longer hand hits 5, it would have been six months without seeing my husband. I remember that it as clear as day, when I had to stay away from him.The house was lonely. I had no one to help me stand up because I was getting heavier and heavier as the days went by. Raina would but she had left for some reason. When the baby would kick, he wasn’t there to listen and smile. I was alone and I knew he was at the pack alone too.I’ve been trying to reach him for the past three days now, and he’s not picking up. A feeling of dread rushes through my veins making me cold of a sudden, as I thought of what might have happened at the pack.Without thinking, I took my car keys and went outside. I started
Alcandar’s POV“Do you really think that’s a good idea?” Adrian asked, passing me the cup of tea.“I don’t know at the moment but I will do anything to keep Drake out of my way.” I said in a cold tone.This wasn’t possible; so they just assumed he could stay here.What if he was just lying? None of this happened in my dads time.I knew something was fishy about him because it just happened suddenly.“So what do you want me to do now? And about Sapphire? She will be due next month. You should be Spending time with her.” Adrian said and I immediately sent him a cold glare.“Adrian! We don’t speak of my family. Now anyone could be hearing our conversation. Please I haven’t coke this day to put her life at stake.” I said in a cold tone while taking a sip of the tea.“Pardon my manners.” He said with a slight bow.“I want to have Drake killed, if not I want him to use his two miserable legs to walk out of here himself. I want it to be that, I get something big and then use it against him.
Alcandars POVI slumped into the couch in my office, it’s been a long day. I haven’t had time for myself these past few days. The pack has so many things to do this week. I didn’t want to show it but I feel tense over what might happen soon.“Go away Adrian.” I say after I hear a knock from my door. I knew it was Adrian, it was only him that had the right to knock at this time.“Your phone.” He said.“Come in.” I said while I was massaging my temples. Sapphire would have cured of my headache is she was here. I missed her.“Do I have any missed calls? I don’t want any distractions right now. I need to take a nap, and I would resume my work.”“You have missed calls from Sapphire, a lot of them.” He said. I quickly went to him and grabbed the phone.“Why didn’t you tell me Adrian? You never do anything right.” I furrowed my eyebrows.“Sorry. You said you didn’t want to get distracted—”“My wife is not a distraction. She’s my wife. What if something happened to her?” I said between gritte
Alcandar’s povSeeing Mirabella standing right in front of me after I have thought for the pass weeks that she was dead really sparked an element of surprise within me.I was speechless and struggles to speak out even a single word. I just stared at her in what must look to her like awe whereas it was nothing but pure shock and surprise.Anyone that know me knows how I do not do well with surprises. I hate to be taken unaware. I always have this satisfactory feeling within me when everything is just under my control. If you understand this, you would understand why I hate to be surprised. She just stared back at me with some sort of contentment. Like she expected this kind of reaction from me and I was feeding onto her expectations. Well I wouldn’t blame me. Someone you thought was dead suddenly out of no where just pull off in front of you with as much sinister smile as they could muster. That will invoke surprise out of anyone.I don’t know what the heck I did to the moon goddess
Alcandar’s POVAre you in? Time is ticking. I saw another text me. I knew it was the person who had my wife.When I saw that text, I increased my speed on the road. I was about to make a turn when I saw a man in a police uniform standing on the road. I had to stop. I sighed in regret as the man walked to my side of the car. “You’re over speeding. Are you late for something?”“Officer, I’m not over speeding. Please, this matter is one of life and death. I can’t afford to waste anytime.” I said genuinely pleading. The man chuckled. “Life and death? You aren’t meant to disobey road rules, no matter what sir. Just because you have a big car and all doesn’t mean you should.” He gave me a piece of paper which was an offense ticket. I already have two, this was my third. “Officer? I said it’s a matter of a life and death. I’m late for an appointment. Besides this is 6pm already, you officers don’t rest?” I said. “Go before I give you more of fence ticket.” He said and I drove away, slow
Alcandar’s POV“What more do you want from me? Haven’t you had enough already? Ever since I know you have caused nothing but trouble to me and I haven’t done anything to you. Your pathetic past life wasn’t my fault, so why are you taking your anger out on me and my family?” I yelled out in frustration and anger.I never really did anything to her that I can remember so why should I be punished for my dads mistake. All she’s doing amounts to nothing and she should be satisfied already because she already succeeded in killing my dad so what more does she want?“Oh please don’t act all innocent? The throne you seat on is mine and not your gathered entitlement you little brat.” She retorted and I could see the hatred she had for me through her face.I didn’t know why but I felt that if at all anything was wrong we could have always fixed it, she already caused us so much problem already.“Well accept it as fate, if it wasn’t meant to be the moon goddess would have prevented it but she d
Alcandar’s POVAs I confronted the dangerous woman in front of me, my heart hammered like a thousand drums. Mirabella, who was possessed by a craving for power and vengeance, clutched a shaking revolver in her hand. The gloomy lighting just added to the seriousness of the scenario."Mirabella, please," I begged, just above a whisper."Leave Sapphire out of this; this is just between you and me. She isn't required to be involved.”“What do you want? The leadership position? Fine, I’ll give it to you; I’ll dethrone myself and let you rule but please don’t hurt my family,” I kept pleading."You see, Alcandar, I once plotted to overthrow you and take over the werewolf pack for myself," Mirabella growled, her voice venomous."However, I'm sick of wanting that position. All I want now is to watch you suffer like I have."As I saw the extent of her insanity, my heart sunk. She had given up on controlling, but her need for revenge had not. Sapphire, my loving wife, stood alongside Mirabella,

In other for everyone to get out of this unaffected, I will have to act as calm as possible and use strategies to save us both from the wreck of Mirabella The pointed the gun at me, daring me to move from closer and she would shoot. Her threats are anything but empty and I was damn sure she is definitely going to shoot if I move any closer to her without a second thought.“You are a manipulative bastard and will always be. You are always making sure you get the upper hand while we are just lay out below you like some sort of trash. We do not deserve to be below you neither do you deserve to be above of us. If anything you deserve to rot in hell for every pain you have caused for me. Every situation you have put me in, you deserve to die for everything you have done to everyone!” She maniacally shouted moving away from me, still holding Raina tightly in front of her.“No Mirabe
Sapphire’s POVOne moon later,“What do you want for breakfast?” Alcandar called out to me from the kitchen.Just finished dressing up for my baby girl and I went downstairs to go to Mide’s and open that’s what it was doing in the kitchen because I knew that he couldn’t do everything on his own even if he always acted like he could.I bathed her gently and got her dressed in the best outfits I could see. Alcandar made sure she had everything and more.She always had an excess of everything.It all always landed out on the right spot and I knew how much I felt so overjoyed because of that.I had the perfect family and I don’t ever think you can wish for anything more than that.As soon as I went down the staircase, a maid came running to me.She smiled at Karen and collected her from me to go and feed her.I have waited so long for this happily ever after life because me and my husband have gone through so many things and this was just what we needed now.After all of the hardships an
Sapphire’s POV“ It is time for me to get this over with. I can't be one of the cited parts.” Alcandar muttered to himself , ripping his hands to take out his phone .After that was successfully done he looked for Kira’s name and called her.Ilocked the call again and the phone rang for about two seconds.“Yea what’s up.” Kira said over the phone in a very low voice like I Was sick or something.Her voice sounded really pale but Iseemed fit enough as Ispoke. •”Please if you don’t mind, I am going to need your attention. We need to talk urgently, I have something very important to ask you.” He said, taking a dramatic pause.“You were saying?” Kira said hastening him up because Ifound the deal with the whole suspense thing he was trying to form up.“Let’s talk about our marriage .. You and I know how much you have been avoiding this question for no good reason, because if you have something to say about something that is actually very sensitive I would like to know.

Alcandar’s POV“What trouble?” I asked my brother who was panting profusely.“Baby Alex is missing,” he said.My stomach tightened at the possibility of our newborn kid being in danger. Baby Alex was more than simply a youngster; he represented our pack's future, the hope that would continue on our legacy. It seemed unfathomable to lose him."Are you sure?" I questioned Adrian, thinking that it was just a mistake."Yes brother, I'm absolutely sure," Adrian said, pausing to gather his breath."We've searched the whole village, but we couldn't find him anywhere. We found the nanny who was supposed to be watching him dead in his room. I'm suspecting this is the work of our enemies."Sapphire's eyes widened in surprise, and her demeanor reflected her dread and anxiety."Oh Moon goddess…” Sapphire prayed before turning to look at me.“We must find him, Alcandar. Our child...""We will find him," I murmured resolutely, clutching Sapphire's hand hard. "We will not rest until our son is safel
SAPPHIRE’S POVI was seized by stress and anxiety as my heart raced in my chest. What had become of Alcandar? Why did the doctor leave so quickly? I made an effort to maintain my composure by telling myself that Alcandar was resilient and had already endured a lot. My newly born child was wailing in my hand as if he understood what was going on.I waited for the doctor and nurse to show up for what seemed like hours. My attention was totally on Alcandar, and the sounds of the hospital appeared to recede into the distance. Despite my strong desire, Alcandar's safety kept me from holding our kid in my arms.The doctor eventually made his way back, but I couldn't read the expression on his face so I had to wait to hear his report. Suddenly a smile broke out on his face and I felt a bit relieved.“Mr. Alcandar asks to see you, Mrs. Sapphire,” the doctor finally said.Hearing the doctor's remarks, my heart sprang with hope. I was desired by Alcandar? I swiftly followed the doctor to Alcand
Alcandar’s povFor a moment I really stayed rooted in my spot not knowing what to think of this. Going to meet Mirabella alone is like a suicide mission and again if I really want my wife back I have to go.I know how much of a maniac she is. She I mistakenly refused to show up, she might end up blowing sapphire head up and sending it to me through the mail and I wouldn’t want that.Mirabella is a type of person who was so good at hiding her tracks. No one know where she was or where she would be and most importantly where she is.She only show up when she wants to and let you see her when she wants you to see her so hurting her down when she have my wife with her is not a risk I am willing to take so I cancelled that off the my list. Whatever way out I thought of end up taking me down the trail of meeting her which I have been avoiding like a plague. But I have to face the hard truth before it punch me on the gut, the only possible way out of this is if I heed her words and meet her
SAPPHIRE’S POVI devised a risky scheme one day out of desperation and a deep want to be with him. I was able to get past security by pretending to be a nurse and enter Alcandar's room. My soul was broken by the sight of him lying there, so defenseless and unresponsive. I prayed for a sign that he could hear me as I stretched out for his hand, unable to contain my emotions.Overwhelming emotions overcame me just as I was ready to depart, causing me divided between my love for Alcandar and my commitment to Adrian. I sobbed as the hurt of Alcandar's illness, the dread of losing him, and the excitement and anticipation of our kid all mingled.Adrian and one of the doctors raced into the room, having been alerted by my weeping. I couldn't hold back any longer; I needed them both at the time."Sapphire, you shouldn't be here," Adrian murmured again, attempting to shield me."You need to think of yourself and the baby."But I couldn't stand it any longer. My heart ached for Alcandar as I cl
Sapphire’s POV“I thought you said you're always here for us to raise our child together, why aren’t you waking up Alcandar? I can’t do this without you and you know; this wasn’t the promise we made to each other.” I said breaking down In tears as I held his hands into mine.I still got no response from him and I didn’t know why I was so scared, I was given some time to stay with him and I didn’t know why it felt like he died already.I was so scared that I didn’t know how to prepare myself for whatever was about to happen.I knew he was going to be okay because he already promised me and I hoped he would stick to his promise.My stomach was already aching badly and I could feel the baby was going to come out anytime soon.Adrian and yeh divot gave me some minutes sir spend with him and I didn’t know why I was freaking out.All the energy and all the strength I had before silently vanished and I felt I won’t be able to do this if he wasn’t there by my side.“My heart ached for him an

Alcandar’s pov “You mean she will be up in a couple of days?” I asked the doctor to make sure I heard me right.“Yes. The bullet pierced her upper arm and the wound is very deep but fortunately no vital organ was touched but when she fall, she hit her head so head I think it resulted in serious concussion. The head injury is more the one keeping her unconscious than the actual bullet injury coupled with the fact that she lost a lot of blood. But I am sure she will be fine” He explained further, each of his word lifting the worry from my heart. At least I won’t live with the guilt that she was killed because of me.When the nurse told me they would be out soon from earlier, she actually was telling nothing but the truth because just few minutes after I sat down, the door sprang open and the two doctors and three nurses that were in their trying to save her life all sprang out.When they first assured me that she would be fine I didn’t believe one but seeing as they all looked bloody a
