Alina POV

His call echoed, interrupting my rehearsed plan to ask Sebastian for help with the kidnapped twins. The perfect pitch I had prepared dissolved as his voice reached me, a strange sensation freezing me in place, rendering me speechless. It was as if time stood still.

I took in his appearance, it was even more commanding than the last time I saw him, he seemed more muscular and his wavy hair was longer. I could see Colvin in him and it made me imagine what Sebastian looked like as a child.

“Alina, it's…surprising… to see you," He added, his voice tinged with confusion as he managed to gather his words. "What…are you doing here? It's been a…while.”

There were more pressing matters to discuss than my six-year life trajectory, so I had to push the controversy aside.

“Sebastian," the room fell silent as I spoke. I felt his eyes focusing on me. I had to tell him straight. This was a result of our kids, I thought as I gazed into his captivating eyes and spoke up. "I need your help.

    Sebastian's POV“Alpha, he is in the clinic,” a man in my pack said, making my head bang with pain. I wasn’t going to see the wolf that got injured but I guess I had to now.I opened the door to the small ward where the injured man was and so many other people were present in the room and surrounded him, he was surely going to die faster with this many people.I walked towards the injured man and saw how deep his injuries were, he had a slim chance. “He got attacked and he was slashed with something that poisoned the wound. With this there is a slim chance of him surviving,” the park doctor beside me said, confirming my thoughts. “Everyone out!" I commanded and each person bowed before exiting the clinic, the perks of power. “So what was the message?” I asked the injured fellow knowing full well that he wasn’t injured for nothing, someone wanted me to know something. He made an attempt to sit up and the sound of him wincing was only going to add to my headache, so I gently pushed h

  • Second Chance for Mates: A Stolen Legacy   Home

    Alina's POV"Alina, Alina!" The room was suddenly filled with a masculine voice calling out my name as the intruder barged into my room. I lay sprawled on the bunk bed, my thighs partly exposed to the morning ray from my window. In a hurried panic, I reached for the blanket to conceal myself. It was one of the guards, and a sardonic chuckle escaped me as Lexi, my wolf, called him a 'pervert' in my mind. It seemed like just another morning to be treated like garbage. "Get up, orphan!" He snarled. "Luna wants you to clear the dining table. They have finished eating."I rolled my eyes dramatically, although he couldn't see it. I had no clear role within Alpha Lorgan's packhouse since my arrival. I wasn't a slave, nor was I a special wolf. I was merely an orphan who had watched her parents burn alive just hours before my 18th birthday. The pain of that memory, coupled with the jarring experience of shifting into my wolf, weighed heavily on me. I had one friend, Caroline, but I hadn't see

  • Second Chance for Mates: A Stolen Legacy   Fiery Ginger Hair

    Sebastian's POVThe moonlight filtered through the windows, casting a soft glow on the translucent white curtain. I lay in my bed, half asleep, positioned with my back to the door. A subtle creak signaled the door's slow swing open, accompanied by the sound of my name filling the room. "Wake up, Sebastian," my roommate called, tossing a pillow in my direction. I grumble and let out a low growl. 'Why does he always have to do that?' I muttered. "What is it, Tyler?" I asked, retaliating by flinging the pillow back in his direction. Tyler has been my childhood friend and a candidate for my beta when I eventually become an Alpha in my pack. Maybe then, the pillow-throwing antics might stop."I am trying to sleep. Why can't you see that?" Tyler let out an unabashed chuckle. "You can't be serious, Sebastian," he teased. "We have a flight to catch by 11 p.m. and a gathering to attend in two days. Remember?" I snapped to full alertness, smacking my forehead. 'How did I forget that?' I mut

  • Second Chance for Mates: A Stolen Legacy   Temptation

    Sebastian's POV Trying to be around my mate without arousing suspicion was a challenge throughout the day. Her role as a maid required her constant presence, which, in this case, was both a blessing and a curse. I found myself lying in my bed, unable to escape the thoughts of Alina. Even in her maid uniform, she radiated beauty that left me yearning to see her without it. I couldn't help but imagine how her curves would feel in my hands. I needed to be careful not to come off as a pervert, but my desire and attachment to her were undeniable.Restlessly, I opened my door and called the attention of a guard standing nearby. My mother's overprotectiveness, with a guard watching over my safety, felt unnecessary. "Do you know a maid by the name of Alina?" I asked, adopting a stern tone to assert my authority."Yes, sir. The orphan," he replied, revealing an aspect of her past that explained some of her pain."The orphan?" I mused to myself, understanding her hurt a bit better. It must hav

    Sebastian's POV The previous night had been truly remarkable, leaving me eager to engage in conversation with Alina. My excitement grew as I anticipated her appearance at the upcoming gathering event, where she would be wearing the beautiful dress I had gifted her. With only an hour left before the event, I stood before my mirror, meticulously buttoning up my shirt and reluctantly attempting to knot a tie, which I typically detested for making me look overly professional.My focus shifted abruptly when I heard the door to my room open. I turned to find my mother, elegantly adorned in her favorite royal flowered gown and wearing her tiara, clearly prepared for the gathering event. Her presence at this moment intrigued me, as it was unusual for her to intrude without a specific reason."Luna Leah," I greeted her with a wry smile, turning my back to the mirror to concentrate on my tie once more. "What brings you here?" I inquired, curiosity piqued. She cleared her throat as she began to

    There's absolutely no way, no freaking way I could be pregnant. Four weeks had passed, and although I noticed a change in my scent, the idea of pregnancy was the last thing on my mind, even Lexi was surprised. It was just one night of intense passion, a flame that turned its back on me and left me scorched. My eyes scanned the emptiness of an abandoned old house, a place I had found in the woods, my hideout since I ran away. At least, it was a place that wasn't easily traceable. It was just me, the dust, eerie cobwebs, and an uncomfortable bed that made me long for my bunk bed, a constant reminder of my overwhelming loneliness in this silence. What do I even know about raising kids, especially now that their supposed father has rejected me? Or about my safety?I was confused and lost, my life hadn't been in order or off to a good start, and it seemed to be going in that same direction. "You're not alone," Lexi, my wolf reassured me.Lexi sensed my pain, but sometimes words weren't en

    Alina's POV "Mum!" I released a weary sigh as the back seat of my car transformed into a battleground, thanks to Colvin, my 5-year-old son screaming. Another drama for a Monday morning. My twins were at it again. Glancing at the rearview mirror, I raised an eyebrow at the chaos they had caused behind me. This time it was far worse than mere cookie crumbs; Colvin had woven his sister's hair into messy knots. I rolled my eyes in annoyance, trying not to scream out loud as I held the steering wheel firmly, remembering how many hours it took me to strengthen her hair for a new school term.I had no idea how Camille's auburn hair was hard to brush and not, especially when I was almost at their school. Colvin, with his chestnut hair and my green eyes, reminded me of a fateful incident that happened five years ago. Conversely, Camille inherited her father's hazel eyes, but their subtle differences set her apart. "Colvin, I told you to stop touching your sister's hair," I snapped, locking

By the time I got to the door, I saw a policeman and the kids' nanny knocking and checking if anyone was in. Immediately the nanny spotted me, she turned to walk towards me. “Alina, are you okay? I heard what happened."My voice and lips failed me and I managed a nod. The nanny held me as if she could sense I could not feel like walking anymore and led me to the door where the officer sat. “Good evening ma’am, I am Officer Smith,” the police officer greeted. “I am sorry about what happened to your children, but I also need your account of what happened so we can find them.”I clutched my children’s bag tighter as tears threatened to fall again. “Leave me alone please,” I finally say, my throat hurt and my voice raspy and shaky. “I’m sorry?” The Officer responded like he did not hear me. “I said lea
