Chapter 58What do you mean?" I raised a brow."I thought you'd know this better than anyone else. Come on, this is Henry's mom. It's not like there's anything anyone would say about it," my eyes widened."My stepmom? Didn't she die from my arrow that year? She's dead; it can't be her!" I shrugged, refusing to believe him."I'm not urging you to agree with me; I'm stating a fact here. Besides, how sure are you that she's truly dead?" I furrowed my brow, finding some sense in what he was saying."Take a look at this. She had a big mole on her left leg, remember?" I ruffled my hair in frustration.The whole thing was leaving me speechless."I remember," he brought the phone closer, then zoomed in after pausing it."I'm only starting to think about it now that you mentioned it. The aura around Dora seemed more like hers, but I didn't bother taking it to heart."How come you didn't notice it when you saw her running away?""How would I believe that she's the one when she's dead? Remember?
Chapter 59Wait, your wife didn't tell you about it?" Wren looked back to glare at his wife."Babe?" His wife walked out."Babe, who's at the door? I've been waiting for you to come back," she said, shocked to see Sonia standing by the door."Sonia?" She gasped."I was here only to see your husband asking who I was and what I was doing here. Didn't you tell him I was coming?" His wife gasped."What are you saying, Sonia? I told you I needed to talk to my husband about it. Seeing you here today isn't what we discussed!" Sonia frowned."Are you suddenly changing your mind because he's here? You told me I could come over anytime and that your husband wouldn't say a thing. You even told me your husband isn't much trouble and that he always does anything you say. Why are you suddenly acting like you have no idea what I'm saying?" She twitched her brow, glaring heatedly at Sonia."This better be a joke, Sonia. I won't tolerate you laying false accusations on me!" Wren, who knew her game, di
Chapter 60"Why are you still outside? Come on, come inside," Wren said from inside."You heard him; he wants me in. Get ready, baby girl. It's my turn to shine!"***Alisha's POV I stood up to get the door.I was shocked to see Dora standing at the door, smiling widely at me. I could see the deceit in her eyes as she smiled, but I couldn't just bring myself to believe she’d do such a thing."Are you okay?" she questioned when she noticed I wasn't smiling back at her. "Why can't I just bring myself to believe something that's already obvious?""I'm fine. Do you need anything?" I asked. I wasn't ready to let her in. She should stand outside and tell me whatever she has to say."I'm fine; I just came to check up on your son. How's he doing this morning? Is he okay? Did anything happen to him?" she questioned. What the hell kind of question is that? Wait, was she expecting something to happen to him? My gaze darkened. I can't remember mentioning anything to her or anyone."Why do you as
Chapter 61Darien's POVI walked into the room only to see Alisha's stepdad, or should I say my dad, sitting comfortably on the couch."Why are you here?" I asked moodily.Heaven knows I wasn't in the mood to argue with him; neither was I in the mood to drag him or even force him into doing anything. He should just let me be. I'm already going through a lot."Are you chasing me out of your home?" His eyes widened."If you think that's it, then fine. Please don't just come here to stress me. If you are here to argue or drag me, then come back tomorrow; I'm already occupied today," he chuckled."You should think twice before chasing me out of your home! I'm your father-in-law, remember?" I scoffed."Father-in-law? To whose daughter? Because I can remember you saying she's not your daughter, and besides, she hasn't forgiven you. Just leave and come back tomorrow," I blurted, taking a seat on the second couch."It's still not fair. I'm still your stepdad. At least I deserve some respect f
Chapter 62Clara walked down the stairs with Adrian, her oldest son, behind her while she carried Adam, her youngest boy, in her arms. Sonia chuckled upon seeing them."Mom, who is she?" Adrian, her eldest son, asked, referring to Sonia, who was seated comfortably on the couch in their sitting room with her legs resting on the chair."Wow! Seems your mother hasn't told you. It's fine; I will tell you," Sonia chimed in before Clara could say a word."She's my friend; she's here too..." Sonia interrupted her before she could complete her statement."I'm not your friend, Clara; tell them the truth!" Sonia cut her off."Mommy, what is she saying? If she is not your friend, then who is she?" Adrian asked again. Without letting her say a word, Sonia interrupted once more."I don’t know why they refused to tell you about it. You will find out a little later, but let me brief you about it. I'm your father’s new wife. Tell me, aren't I prettier than your mom?" Adrian hissed in frustration."No
Chapter 63"What condition?" I asked, and he smirked."I discussed it with my mom already, and she agreed. The doctor also said you can take me with you. If you don't trust that I'm healed, you can just get a home nurse for me. I'm going with you. Mom, you agreed already, right?" He winked at his mom, and she reluctantly nodded.Only God knows what she's blackmailing her with because Alisha will never agree to this willingly."You see, Mom wants me to go with you. Look, she already arranged my bag." He pointed at a big bag lying in a corner. How the hell did he do this?"But what about..." He cut me off before I could even finish."There's no 'but.' My mommy agreed already, and that's all that matters. Don't give me excuses. You can tell me if you don't want to take me with you."****After an hour of chatting with Daniel, he finally fell asleep.Alisha never said anything during our discussion; she just sat and watched as if what he discussed was none of her business."So tell me, Al
Chapter 64Alisha's POV"I'm so sorry, I was just passing by" She quickly stood up trying to run away but Wren grabbed her hands preventing her from leaving."Where are you rushing to? Weren't you listening to our conversation?’’ Wren dragged her in and then closed the door."I wasn't standing here, I was only passing by" She tried going out again but the wren's grip on her was too tight."Who exactly are you Dora? Why are you doing this?" She had that one innocent expression on her face."What do you mean? I didn't do anything" she blinked innocently."Stop lying to us Dora, who are you walking for?" Darien questioned walking up to her.Seeing they weren't ready to let her go she chuckled darkly."And who is to tell me what to do? I'm not telling you anything, do your worst!" She snapped.The next she opened her hands and fire in the form of balls appeared in them. Everyone, including My stepdad."What are you doing Dora, are you crazy?" I yelled."Yes, I am. I'm crazy, what will you
Chapter 65 Alisha's POV;"You are now mine Alisha! Just mine! I know I've really wronged you in the past but not anymore. I promise I will love you, just the way you want to be loved, just give me a chance" Wait, if I hadn't forgiven him would I let him have his way, he's very dumpy."I have forgiven you, I can't be mad forever. I need to give Daniel the chance to experience what it feels like to have both parents" I lied, I wasn't only doing this because of Daniel, I was doing it because my heart still longs for him. So badly.Writer's POV;"You just messed up everything Dora, this wasn't the plan. You weren't supposed to let them see what you've got! Why do I have the feeling that you want to betray me?" Emily grabbed her neck, choking her."I'm. sorry, I didn't..mean to, they forced me to!" She shuttered."Lies! You only did it to ruin my plans, you did it intentionally, stop lying!" She tightened her fist."Mom! What's going on here? Let her go!" Henry intervened, separating her
Chapter 159Dungeon* Dora followed the guard into the prison. Darien had agreed to let her see Sandra and have a few words with her.“There, ma'am, please don't go too close to her. She stabbed a maid who brought her food yesterday; she's looking for people to drag down alongside herself. She's holding a sharp object in her body, so you should not go near her,” the guard whispered to her."Sure, I won't go close to her. Thank you for telling me," she whispered back."Who do we have here? I've been hearing your name for some time; I guess I'm finally seeing your face."Immediately Sandra heard her voice, she quickly stood up and walked to the gate."Do I know you from somewhere? It's good to hear you say you've heard so much about me. I didn't know I was that popular.""Well, it's okay. I heard you killed Luna. That's so bold of you. I also heard you told the alpha you did it because you thought that was what he wanted. Who in God's name would want their mate dead if not a wicked witc
Chapter 158What? Do you want to see her? She's locked up, and why should I trust you that you won't do anything silly if I take you to see her?" Darien questioned."Oh, come on, I wouldn't have shown up here if I was still working for them. One thing I need you to understand is the fact that I never worked with them willingly. They fucking bewitched me; they made me do all sorts of mean things, and when I finally got myself back, they dumped me to suffer, just like they did to the Sandra lady.""Sandra? How come you know they sent her?""I don't need to be told by anyone because I heard it with my own ears. I heard them discuss it; they fucking sent her here for you, but she ended up doing otherwise, so they've abandoned her to face her fate.""How come she never mentioned any of this to me? She told me she came back because she was tired of staying with her friend, that's why she came back. I didn't even suspect anything, and trust me, everything that happened, I didn't know how it
Chapter 157Dora knocked on the gate for the umpteenth time; she'd been knocking for the past ten minutes, and funny enough, none of the guards came to open the gate. She just assumed none of them heard her, so she continued knocking.After some time, the gate finally opened."What is it? Can't you just understand the writing on the way and leave? On a normal occasion, the gate is usually open, so seeing it closed by this time, you were supposed to know the alpha doesn't want to see anyone, so just leave!" The guard snapped at her."I'm not leaving. Go in there and tell him I'm here to see him; he will surely come out to see me!" "Who are you? And why should I tell him you are here? Who are you to him?" The guard yelled."Go in and tell him Dora is here to see him.""Dora? Who's Dora? Why would you be coming here to look for him? The alpha is still mourning his Luna, so he's not in the mood to see anyone. Just go and return later. He will see you by then.""You don't just chase me aw
Chapter 156"So this is what you plan to do with me? Do you plan on dumping me like nothing when you've finally gotten what you've wanted? Oh wow! So this was it? You fucking want to dump me after everything. I can see, I've always known you, and your mom can’t be trusted, but trust me, I have a backup plan. If you think of bringing her back, brainwashing her to do your bidding, then leaving me like a fool, then you are wrong. You should be ready to face me tomorrow too. You both made my life this way, then you want to leave me to suffer? It's impossible!" They turned to look at her."Dora! How did you get in here? Didn't we agree you wouldn't come here to see me?" Henry asked, walking up to meet her."Oh yeah, you asked me not to come so you could do whatever you please. Yeah, you asked me not to, but I did anyway. If I hadn't come, then how would I have known what you have in store for me? I was a fool to have believed you loved me; you were only playing me! Oh wow, I have been fool
Chapter 155They both looked at her, pissed. Who would have believed they had been wasting their time telling her all this just for her to call it a story? She's mean.It took them so much effort to generate such a sweet story that matched her situation, but now she's not even close to taking what they said seriously."How could you say such a thing? We just told you everything that happened, yet you took it as a joke?" Emily scoffed in frustration."I'm not a kid. You just mentioned he's your stepson, so possibly you just want to use me to take revenge on him. You shouldn't stress yourself making up fake stories; I don't even know any of the people you just mentioned. So tell me, what do you need me to do for you? You saved my life, so you are my benefactor. Just tell me how you need me to help you. I don't remember anyone pushing me down the bridge. You know, I somehow have this feeling that you both are fudging these stories to tell me. You know I can tell when people are lying to
Chapter 154 Writer's POV:"No dear, that's not what you Heard, come on Come here," Michael told Daniel who was standing at the staircase listening to the conversations."Uncle please don't lie to me, tell me what happened to me mom, I know for sure that my mommy is not always, she would have been here like eye promised if everything was alright" Daniel insisted.Michael carried him in his arms then went back to place him on a seat and squat in front of him, the rest could only watch not knowing what or what not to say to the baby, he's a kid so on a norm he's not supposed to be told right away, but his constant resistance and the way he asked the question, it shows he already knew it, he was only asking to confirm."What happened to my mom, grandpa?" Seeing his Uncle Michael wasn't willing to answer him he turned to his grandpa."I'm so sorry dear, nothing happened, everything is alright, come on let's grandpa go cuddle you to sleep remember you asked for it in the morning," his gran
Chapter 153Please stop, please, they are all innocent," he cried."And my Luna isn't? You could have thought about the consequences of your actions before you did what you did. Even after you crashed the car, you still went ahead to force her down the bridge. You and everyone who belongs to you deserve to suffer for killing her. Neither you nor any of them deserve to live. I will do you the favor of killing them, and trust me, the world will praise me for this; the pack will sing my praises!" Darien yelled as he emptied the last bullet straight into the old woman's forehead."Mom! No, Mom, please, I'm sorry. I was paid to do it. I will tell you who sent me," he finally shouted."Good, go ahead," Sandra's heart raced."Darien, I don't think there's any need to ask him; he might blame me to implicate me," she told Darien. Darien threw her a deadly glare, forcing her to keep her mouth shut."Go on, speak!" The two remaining ladies were already panting hard, knowing they would suffer the
Chapter 152Mrs. Mandes fainted before he could complete his statement.Drake caught her before she could fall to the ground.Their dad didn't say a thing; he just clenched his fist, his breathing coming out rough, while Michael, on the other hand, had already taken his seat, his hands covering his face.If only their mom hadn't advised her to go back the day she came; if only he had protected her more. He wished he had stopped her from leaving; she would have been mad at him but not dead.**After a while, Drake had already taken their mom upstairs. He knew this would happen, so he came with his tools. He did everything and gave her an injection so she could rest."How did this happen? Is it why Darien has refused to pick up our calls? I guess he should be happy now; he has succeeded in killing her so he could marry his so-called friend.""It was a truck. The driver has been caught, and Alisha? She wasn't found; she fell down the bridge and the car exploded!" Michael cracked his knuc
Chapter 151Sandra walked from one edge of the room to another, panting. She had been calling the guy's line, but unfortunately, he wasn't picking up, and the thought bothered her so much.The guy not picking up could only mean one thing: either he had been caught or he was dead.A faint knock came on her door, and her poor heart couldn't help but skip. Her subconscious mind kept telling her that something was wrong."Who's there?" she asked slowly."It's me, ma'am," the maid replied.Already knowing the sort of person she appeared to be, Darien didn't bother sending a guard since she might suspect something was wrong; she might just decide to end her own life instead of being caught or blamed."How may I help you?" she asked as she opened the door.The maid smiled fondly and then replied, "The alpha is back; he sent for you.""Did anything happen? Do you know why the alpha called me?" she tried to get words out of the maid."No, ma'am, all is well. I think he got you a gift or someth
