SKYLAR'S P.O.VSince I woke up, I haven't stopped touching my tummy. It's as if I had woken up with the spirit of joy and love, that I couldn't stop smiling at the fact that I was going to become a mother soon even in my tender age.It was a thing of joy to me that despite the stressful work I was engaged in, just knowing well that I have a child in me made me feel less stressed out with what I was doing.My happiness was beyond bond, and I don't blame Roselle for thinking my source of happiness was because of our dirty plan. Yes, it went successfully well last night, and we were able to eat enough, which even added to the strength I have in me.When I remember my child was also the child of Alpha Denver, I tried to get angry, but there is this cold feeling that comes each time the thoughts want to threaten me. I was hanging his clothes in the wardrobe, when he walked out of the bathroom with his towel tied around his waist.I tried not to look at him despite the urge that surged thr
SKYLAR'S P.O.VA week has successfully passed by, and I couldn't help with the uncomfortability I was having with each say that passes by. Surprisingly, my stomach wasn't adding in growth which I'd say was a good thing.Mrs Marie gave me a list of things I would buy from the store, and she needed me to go alone. "Ma'am, the stuff you wrote down is too much for only myself to carry. I'll need assistance to help me."She eyed me, "You find almost everything difficult to do. What's hard to carry a full basket of all these, huh?" She queried."It's much for even yourself to carry, so why won't it be much for me?" I fired back.Her face wore a deep frown as she threw a stern look at me. "You dare to talk back to me?" She yelled, grabbing my hair forcefully. "You little idiot, who gave you the morale to talk back at me?" She raised her hand, landing it on my back.She hit me two more times right on my spinal cord, then she dragged my face up, landing a hot slap on my cheek. "The next time
SKYLAR'S P.O.VI touched my chest, trying to hold back the pain of rejection."You are my mate doesn't mean you will be my Luna. I don't love you, and you should know that by now. You are just a slave, a worthless omega and you don't deserve to be recognized." I felt hot liquids roll down my cheeks. "You don't deserve me, you deserve a poor and wretched life."So he does know I am his mate, but doesn't want to acknowledge it. "So, don't even for the slightest second think I'll acknowledge you before the crowd that you are my mate." He scoffed, walking out of the room.I gulped the lump in my throat, but the tears in my eyes were evidence that his words had hit me so hard to the core. I was expecting this, I have always expected this from him. But what I didn't expect is to feel so pained by his words.I sniffled, wiping off the tears in my eyes. Finally, I carried the luggage with me out of the room. She looked a little pissed off at my Kate's arrival. "What took you so long?" She qu
DENVER'S P.O.VI could hardly contain my excitement as soon as I saw her. I had long anticipated seeing her face, but after what felt like eternity, she didn't show up, I thought I would never get the chance to. Her beautiful face had always held a magnetic pull for me, and over the past few years, she had transformed into an even more stunning woman than I had expected. And it was surprising to me that she had chosen to come back into my life just at the very moment I needed her the most. The pressure mounted on me to find a Luna for the pack was becoming an everyday hymn. I couldn't deny that fact, I seem to have delayed mine unlike my father who got married at an early age.Despite the painful past we shared, I couldn't help but feel an undeniable attachment towards her. The past betrayal, when she had cheated on me with my best friend, was still painful, but somehow I had managed to let go of the anger and resentment. I longed to have her back by his side, to call her my own on
DENVER'S P.O.VI laid on my bed, my eyes staring at the ceiling. I was lost in thoughts, so many questions roamed in my head, yet I couldn't give a single answer to any of them.I was beginning to question myself if I had done the wrong thing to welcome Jennifer to my home. I couldn't help but question myself if I had made a mistake by letting Jennifer into my home. Her presence held a lot, and the weight and tension which came with seeing her was worth questioning.A thousand reasons flooded my mind, each one suggesting that perhaps Citrus and Dimitri were right all along. They had warned me, cautioned me about the side consequences of letting her back into my life. And now, I couldn't help but wonder if they were right.What if Jennifer had returned for a purpose? What could that purpose be? These questions circled like vultures, and the urge to sleep was instantly gone, leaving me in the realm of my thoughts.Each second I try to see reasons to why she returned, her smile would fl
JENNIFER'S P.O.VI had woken up earlier than usual, heading for the kitchen to assist the chef with the cooking. Cooking was my favorite hobby and I wouldn't stay an hour without trying one or two things out.Not quite long, Aunt Kate showed up and she looked super excited to see me. I noticed how interested she was in me, which was the least thing I had expected from her.I mean, the normal things we do experience from aunt's and relations is the instant hatred and everyday warning for those we love to find every reason to hate us.But hers was quite the opposite which I was grateful for. She welcomed me, made me feel at home, and she never ceases to smile when she sees me, which gave me hope that my stay here wasn't more of a burden to them."Jen, can I have a minute with you?" She requested."Sure."She pulled me to the side, a serious expression on her face. My curiosity mixed with a tinge of fear as I wondered what Aunt Kate wanted to discuss with me. I was eager to know what was
SKYLAR'S P.O.VI walked into his room, with the intention that he wasn't around since I didn't see him in his room for the last two times I walked in here.However, there seemed to be a quick stop which seemed suspicious to me. The way they sat close together on his bed was one which left me assuming something was about to happen and I just interrupted it."I... I am sorry." I apologized quickly to avoid Alpha Denver's unusual treat. "I'll just leave instead." I left, gently shutting the door.I stood for a second, my hand gently rubbing my tummy and my mind suddenly went wild. I started picturing the two of them in his bed, how rough they would be playing in each other's arms.This time, it wasn't the forced kind of sex, it was that which came with pleasure and lust. I slapped my forehead, returning back to reality.I regretted thinking too far, it only brought nothing but pain. Even if he would for a minute acknowledge me, it would be a lot better than he doesn't at all even after k
SKYLAR'S P.O.VI was so stressed out, and it's been two days since the Alpha and I had the hurtful conversation. Apparently, even till now I haven't healed from those words.He had decided not to reject me so he could watch me shattered. And for these two days, he did things with Jennifer. Things to get me hurt – more like to get me jealous.Now, he had invited her to his room to spend the nights with him. The whole event felt like a burden to me, so I needed a break, to feel the fresh air of the evening breeze to calm my nerves down.While I sat alone, thinking of nothing but how the future would be for me. Since I have anticipated for a brighter future, when my mate would come for me and free me from this hell hole.Unfortunately, those hopes and dreams were no more. The mate I had hoped for turns out to be the very reason I wanted to be out of here.Suddenly, my thoughts drifted to the young gentleman who had come to the pack a few days ago. I couldn't help but smile as I imagined
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
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 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
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
