DENVER’S POVNine months later…My head throbbed as I went through several paperwork. Being the Alpha came with several responsibilities and sometimes I would wish to push them toward my Beta or anyone else available to do the job.It had been nine months since Jennifer came into my home and I was glad that she didn’t cause any trouble with Skylar and me.“Alpha…” A voice called out from behind the door and I raised my brows in wonder at who it was. I had asked not to be disturbed and I was prepared to punish whoever was at the door.“Come in…” I said, ready to growl at the person. As soon as the person walked in, he turned out to be one of the guards and as I was about to chastise him, he spoke quickly.“Alpha! Lady Jennifer is in labor! We need to rush her to the hospital and there is no one available to do that.” The guard said quickly and immediately shot up to my feet in shock. It had been nine months but then I didn’t even know when was her due date. It definitely wasn’t like th
DENVER’S POV“What did you say?” I asked with a look of disbelief. At first, I was shocked to hear what the doctor said but then, I thought I was hearing things. Maybe the doctor was mistaken instead.“I said, you have to bite her.” He repeated and this time, I was sure I heard him right. “I know this is absurd but then, this is the only way to save her else she is going to die. I know you wouldn’t want that.” The doctor continued to say but my mind was filled with different thoughts.What if she could really die? That would be a relief but then I would be faulted for not saving her when there was a way. However, biting someone of her kind was a bit risky. Things could go south and she could really die. Not all blood can accept a wolf’s bite and not just any wolf, an Alpha wolf at that.“We have little time left, Alpha.” The doctor reminded me and I sighed. This was a 50% chance thing and I wouldn’t want her lawyer raining lawsuits on me if she eventually dies.“Let’s do it.” I said,
DENVER’S POVA year later…“What are you going to decide on?” Skylar asked as she laid in my arms. Twas the night before an official meeting with Jennifer and her lawyer. For days, I had been thinking about what to do and if I would leave the baby with Jennifer.“Do you think she is capable of taking care of a baby?” I asked with a disturbed look. Over the one year that had passed, I had come to grow fond of the baby and I was very concerned about her well-being.“Are you worried about Jennifer’s morals? You shouldn’t judge her with what happened in the past.” Skylar said with a meek tone, as she had also come to like the baby and she had no more problems with Jennifer at all.“I can’t help but be worried, Skylar. But then, it all depends on what she wants.” I replied, telling myself not to think too much about it. That night, I slept peacefully in my mate’s arms, knowing that Jennifer would finally leave us but then I wished she could leave without the baby.__“Welcome, Alpha!” The
SKYLAR'S P*O*VEvery girl would want a birthday where there's no one to order them what and what not to do. A stress-free day, with lots of goodies and gifts from both families and friends. But mine was a stark contrast.I would work my ass off day and night, tirelessly cleaning the Alpha's room, and making sure his breakfast, lunch and dinner were ready before he even asked for it.Yet, none of my actions were satisfying to anyone.Today, I'll be turning eighteen, and it's just like every other day. Work your butt, get the Alpha's room cleaned up, fetch water, make sure his meals are all set.Urgh…!I decided to take a rest from scrubbing the floor while the other maids continued. I wish I could take a minute nap, but Mrs Marie over there will definitely not let me.She never stops nagging, and it's becoming a dirty habit of hers. Her mind and attention are always drawn to me because I'm the Alpha's personal maid, she believes I am meant to do the bigger work than anyone else."Are y
SKYLAR'S P*O*VMy heart raced a million beats per minute as I fixed my gaze on Alpha Denver, fully aware that there was no escape from this moment. I had broken the fundamental rules of avoiding beating.I could feel everyone's gaze fixed on me, and the air was filled with murmuring voices as everyone, including myself, waited for what Alpha Denver's action would be."I'm so sorry, Alpha. Please forgive my–"A hefty slap landed on my face before I finished speaking, resounding all through the hall as tears cascaded down my cheeks."You worthless little thing!" He cursed.I could hear the gasps of the guests, none of them dared to do a thing. "Take her to where she belongs." He commanded and the guards quickly grabbed my both hands, seizing me from struggling."No. No. Please, don't take me to the cell. Please, I beg you alpha."He wasn't looking my way, so he was definitely not paying attention to my plea.Being locked in the Alpha's cell was a harrowing phase of life, more like a liv
SKYLAR'S P*O*VI glared around the room as I slowly opened my eyes, taking in a glimpse of my environment. I winced as I tried to make myself sit, my body was bruised and every single place hurts."Don't move, you still haven't healed." Roselle's caring voice sounded from beside me. "Hey, how do you feel?"I dragged my gaze over to her as she approached me with a soft smile and a cup of water in her hand. "How did I make it alive?" I asked, knowing it was only by the moon goddesses intervention one could survive those strokes."I don't know how, but you survived it." She replied. "Here, have a drink."She placed the cup on my lips while I slowly gulped down the water. I sighed heavily, so she went to drop it on the table. "Mrs. Marie." It was the first name that came to my mind."Don't worry about her, she doesn't know we are here."But not for long, the door banged open. In this mansion, there is nothing like privacy. No matter whatever you do, wherever you hide, there are eyes wat
SKYLAR'S P*O*VMy body instantly froze under his voice, my head contemplating over words to justify my action."You're planning on crossing the territory, aren't you?" I shook my head continuously as I mentally found the words to say. "No. I wasn't planning on leaving the territory, I was only trying to see what it's like outside the pack." I knew that wasn't a strong lie, but I needed something to save my life. He grabbed my neck, raising me up so that I wasn't feeling my feet on the ground. I grabbed his hand around my neck, trying to break free from his hold but his hands were tight.I choked, struggling with the little strength I've got in me. "Please. I was… never trying… to escape." I managed to say, my heart beating faster than the second hand."Do you think I'm a kid you can throw a blatant lie at? I can hear your heartbeat loud and clear, and there's no escaping for your actions."I couldn't see his face. The little light from the moon only illuminated the trees behind him
DENVER'S P*O*VI opened the windows so that the breeze could infiltrate my room. There was this unique smell that lingered through my nostrils as I sniffed in the air.It was very faint like whoever owned it had been here a while ago. So faint but my wolf took notice of it.It stirred something inside me. It had hints of rosemary smell, and it was invigorating, causing my wolf to purr.Could this be my mate?I followed it, letting it lead me to whoever the scent belonged to. But as I kept searching, I realized it was directing me to the woodside.At first, I felt suspicious about the feeling. I assumed the scent must belong to an intruder, so I let my curiosity take hold of me.When I saw her, I felt lost, confused and these were not the kind of feelings that I easily welcomed.I am the Alpha for crying out loud. The most respected and feared Lycan king, yet, I had grown weak for a female. And it's not just any ordinary female, it's my slave!I felt intimidated. So humiliated that th

JENNIFER’S POVIt seemed my night had been going on for longer than I could imagine. My heart was heavy and as I sat upright on my bed, I looked like I had gone into a world war. After the meeting with Denver and Skylar, I had been so restless and I wondered what decision they would come to.I knew that Skylar would definitely not want me to come into her home and I kind of hated that fact. It sounded selfish to want to go into her home but I needed to think about myself before anything else.As I continued to mull over the issue, I heard my phone ring and immediately, I jolted out of my thoughts. Deep down, I hoped it was the call I wanted and as I picked up the phone and saw that it was the lawyer calling, I froze for a moment. My heartbeat sped up as I knew that Denver and Skylar had definitely concluded.What would it be? Would I be damned and neglected? I hope not! With shaky hands, I connected the call, breathing heavily, hoping for a piece of good news.“Hello, good morning, la
SKYLAR’S POV“And what if I want to let things slide? Are you going to force me to acknowledge her pregnancy?” Denver spoke immediately. He was obviously annoyed by the lawyer’s guts. His anger started to rise and before I knew what was happening, he was already exerting his Alpha’s energy on the fragile lawyer.“I… I…” The lawyer stuttered as a drop of sweat trickled down his face. Jennifer took a step back and hit behind the lawyer, seeing how angry and irritated Denver was. I stood back, torn between stopping Denver or just letting him continue to exert pressure on the lawyer and Jennifer.“I just want us to settle this amicably… you don’t have to harm us.” The lawyer was quick to say as Jennifer nudged him from behind to do something.“Then you should know your place!” Denver said with so much authority! As I looked at him, I knew that his Alpha wolf wouldn’t want anybody to stand up fiercely to him, especially not Jennifer and her lawyer.“That’s enough, Denver.” I mind-linked hi
SKYLAR’S POVWalking toward the garden hand in hand with Diego, my head was downcast as he played on the sidewalks. His countenance was a stark contrast to mine. My face looked pale and different thoughts went through my mind.Looking at Diego, who was growing up happily with his father, I started to think that I was doing something wrong toward an unborn child who deserved love.“Mummy, are you okay?” Diego suddenly stopped to look at me and I was a bit startled. However, I was quick to put a smile on my face.“Yes, I’m okay. Why do you ask?” I asked with raised brows. He looked really serious and I wondered if he knew what was going on, especially with what happened yesterday with Jennifer. He might have gotten wind of the brawl between me and Jennifer.“Nothing. You have just been moody. I just want you to be alright.” He replied and my smile broadened. I was blessed to have such a son but then I started to wonder if he would be like that without a father figure there to correct h
SKYLAR'S P.O.V I kept walking back and forth in the living room, I was just so upset, and I wouldn't mind strangling her neck right this moment. I just hated the fact that she was here in the first place. I hate that I am looking at her face, I hate that she was carrying my husband's child.What does she want? To take Denver away from me again? To claim herself as the next Luna or what? Or is she trying to share Denver with me in order to become his concubine?No. Fucking. Way! No fucking way am I going to sit and watch that happen. No one is taking my place, no one is taking Diego's place either."Now you listen to me," I said, pointing at her. "You don't have to meet with Denver, and for no reason will you meet with him. What happened between you two was a mistake, it was the past and not love. I won't let him change his mind about you."She shook her head, looking less concerned. "I can't do anything about it, Skylar. As long as Denver is responsible for the child...""No, you're
SKYLAR'S P.O.VI've tried forcing myself to sleep but nature was just so distant from me. I have never felt this distant from Denver before, and it was eating me, weighing me down that we had to go to bed without the normal nice night chat.I decided to bury my pride and wake him up. Surprisingly, he wasn't sleeping either. That makes us even. “Denver.” I called, but he ignored me. “Denver, I can't sleep and I know you can't sleep as well. Maybe, we should talk about it and…”He didn't let me finish, he cut in. “It's not necessary anymore.”“Well, it is to me. We can't keep acting like everything is fine.”“Of course everything is fine. Everything was perfectly fine until you decided to listen to her over me. I am your husband, Sky, your mate, so if there is anyone to trust the most then it is me.”“I know.” I said, regrets clouded me.“But what happened last night didn't show that you trust me. You let her words take over you. I don't know, but I can't help but wonder if you even lo
SKYLAR'S P.O.VIT was two days after the war between the Moon Night Pack and the Red Lotus. The atmosphere seemed normal as there was no one to threaten us, and for these two days I have been able to get a good night's sleep without the weird dreams and visions.Denver on the other hand, claimed the Red Lotus pack, renaming it to the White Wolf pack where he had shifted the white wolves to reside with the remnants of the Red Lotus. Then he merged both packs as one.Things have been going pretty good. With what happened, Denver was able to get recognition from the wolf authorities. Just yesterday, the Moon Night Pack was, however, regarded as one of the greatest wolf kingdoms.Today, Denver has decided to throw a feast in appreciation, inviting all wolves from various packs. Diego on the other hand, won't stop reminding me of the shopping I had promised him."Fine. We're going shopping today."He was so excited. I took his bath,then mine and we both dressed up, ready to go when Denver
