SKYLAR'S P.O.V"Who's that on the phone?" I flinched as the deep voice sounded through the quiet room."Who is that, Skylar?" I heard Dimitri ask, but I ignored his question, dropping the telephone back on its stand.Slowly, I turned to see who it was. I still had the fear in me even though it was Beta Mark standing before me. He was the alpha's Beta, so I had every right to feel scared.I wasn't sure if he was going to report me to the alpha, the look on his face was a bit terrifying if I may say."I… I was just speaking with my cousin." I lied, hoping it would be convincing enough for him not to find out that I was actually lying. "We've been sending letters lately, but then he said he was coming over to pay a visit, so I only wanted to let him know it wasn't the right time to.""You know, if it were to be the Alpha King here, he wouldn't believe you. The call seemed quite suspicious, especially you having it at such an hour of the night.""I know, and I am sorry. I didn't want him
DENVER'S P.O.VI knew something was wrong the moment I felt a bit uncomfortable. I didn't know why because I haven't felt this strange before. This was actually the first time I felt this weird, but where was it coming from?My body was reacting to the feeling, and so was my wolf. It was eager to find out, to know why I was feeling this way.I tried to ignore it, but it was taking things too seriously and I was becoming twice as uncomfortable with it, so I decided to go to my room to get some rest."We need to find out what's wrong, Denver. Something doesn't seem right." My wolf said for the second time."I will, but for now I think I need to get some rest first. We'll figure that out later." I tried to explain but then, it wouldn't listen to me."No, Denver," it refused. "We need to figure it out now or you get unrest for the rest of the day until we find out what the problem is."I groaned inwardly, finding my wolf a bit annoying at the moment. "Can we just let this go, at least for
DENVER'S P.O.VI couldn't sleep throughout the night as my mind wandered through countless thoughts. I hoped for morning to come already so I would take a drive out of this mansion.But my plan shattered as my guard came to inform me that doctor James needed my attention."Did something happen?" Jennifer asked."No, it's nothing." I said, "I'll be back in a minute."I wasn't rushing to find out why he wanted my attention, I was more than reluctant to go to his quarter. I knew he was calling because of Skylar, and I didn't want to act like I cared when I actually didn't.Stepping in, he bowed his head, then he said to me. "Sir, we have a problem." He announced."What problem?" I asked."It's the young Miss, her health has gone worse. She isn't responding to the medication.""What's that supposed to mean, doctor? You should know what to do, that's why I have you here.""Sir, I have tried my best to revive her. And if you can remember our conversation last night, I told you her health wa
DIMITRI'S P.O.VI woke up a bit restless about the day, even with Lilian laying beside me, I felt incomplete. We had shared sex last night. I thought doing so would help ease the disturbing thoughts in my head, but it feels like we never had a thing in the first place.There was no one able to take her place, at least not in any way. Stepping out of the bed, I went into the bathroom for a brush then left to take a walk. Lilian was still fast asleep, so I didn't want to bother her. Not like if I do, her presence would cure my demands. It didn't when I hoped it would.Who could it be that interrupted? Could it be Denver? I wasn't scared of what he would do to me, I was more worried for her sake. The least he could do is call me, then question me. Whatever happens after that is none of my business.I couldn't call the line even if I wanted to. Damn! Why the fuck does things have to be so annoying, especially when you're just beginning to appreciate them.I hope she is safe. I won't for
DOCTOR JAMES P.O.VI left for the hospital early the following morning. According to the doctor, Alpha Denver hasn't shown up since he left. I was thinking her condition would warrant him to at least pay a minute visit, but guess I was overthinking.However, I went to meet her in her office to have a few words with her concerning Skylar's condition."How is she now?" I asked."Well, I can assure you that the young lady will be alright soon, hopefully, by tomorrow or the next. But I can't assure you that she'll be completely alright."I was a bit confused. "I don't understand. Please, explain what you mean by that.""Okay, here is the case. The young Miss as we speak wasn't just suffering from a fever as we all thought, there was more to it, and I can tell the baby she is carrying resulted in the reason why the fever worsened.""How?""Let me explain something to you, doctor. When I ran a test on her yesterday, I discovered that she wasn't responding to the medication. But then, I also
SKYLAR'S P.O.VI woke up and the first thing I saw was a lady dressed in white coat. Then I looked around the room, it wasn't one I have been in in years. The smell alone could tell anyone what the room is, and that's the least place I ever wanted to find myself in.I tried to sit up, but the severe pain coming from my back made me groan. She turned to look at me, a smile played on her face.I archedy brow, wondering why I was laying on a hospital bed. How did I get here in the first place? And worst still, I can't remember what actually happened that led me here in the first place."Hello, Miss Richardson. How are you?" She asked politely, but I was eager to know why I was here."Why am I here?" I asked. "What happened to me?""Oh, darling, you fell sick so you were rushed to the hospital." "Sick?" I know alpha Denver quite well not to be a man who would care about his slaves, to talk of driving them to an expensive hospital like this."How?" I remember being alright. I mean, I've a
SKYLAR'S P.O.V"Skylar, please tell me you're kidding me." Roselle said, trying not to believe I was asking her that.But of course, I am. I literally have no idea who Jennifer or Mrs Kate is. I only know Mrs Marie who is another devil in human form, trying all means to see the end of me.So, how am I supposed to know who the women are?"I'm serious guys, I have no idea who these people are. Why would I act like I know when I don't? I can't lie to you guys, I swear.""Oh, you've lost your memory, I see." Roselle pointed at me, nodding her head."Did you lose your memory?" Diva asked, suspiciously.No one said I lost my memory. Doctor James didn't say that, nor the doctor from the hospital. "No, I didn't. Are we in the future or what?" They exchanged glances, then looked at me. "You lost your memory, Skylar. And it's been two days since you stayed in the hospital." Roselle added."I think the fever really did affect her memory. I hope this is just a minor issue.""Guys, what are you
JENNIFER'S P.O.VI groaned.I can't believe she's back here. I wished she just died off, without her presence everything would be perfectly fine.If only that doctor James hadn't think of playing the caring doctor he is. If only he had just sat his ass back and pretend like he didn't notice a thing about her health.Geez. Some people can be annoying for real.Why would Denver even think of letting her back here? He should have just let her remained in the hospital if he actually didn't want her dead for reputation sake.If only the moon goddess could be sensible enough and do justice to this, Skylar should be ten thousand meters away from this pack for as long as I care.Now that she is back, her return feels more like a revenge to me. She's gonna do everything to have Denver to herself."I don't get why she has to come back. Why is she not dead yet?" I sighed as I paced to and fro aunt Kate's room.She was making use of the restroom and she just walked out, wiping her hands on her cl
