SKYLAR'S P.O.VIt's no longer news when it's already everywhere that Jennifer would be celebrating on the 17th of this month which is next week.The way Alpha has been treating her, more like she was celebrating tomorrow. For three consecutive nights they've been going out for dinner.However, they were definitely going out tonight which wasn't a surprising thing to me anymore since Jennifer has been saying it more like a song. The way she keeps praising Alpha Denver, most times I wonder if he was Zeus himself. I went to inform the chef that the Alpha was hungry. Jennifer demanded I should also serve her as she was hungry too. I had to give her a second glance, I knew I had asked her a few minutes ago if she was hungry. All she said was no. Then suddenly, because the Alpha King was hungry, she had automatically grown hungry too.I took the tray of food to the Alpha's room to serve him his meal. I was about to leave when Jennifer yelled. "What's the meaning of this?"I turned to see
SKYLAR'S P.O.VChef Vivian watched me carefully as she stirred a pot of simmering soup. Then she wiped her hands on her apron, her eyes arched with concern. "Skylar," she began gently, "I can't help but wonder... does the Alpha King know about the child you're carrying?"I hesitated, my eyes darting around the kitchen. "No," I finally admitted, my voice barely above a whisper. "I'm not planning on telling him. I know that if I did, Alpha Denver would ask me to... to abort the child."Her eyes widened in shock, but she quickly composed herself and reached out to gently touch my arm. "Skylar, you must understand that pregnancy can't be hidden forever. How do you plan to hide the bump?"I took a deep breath, my lips curled into a small smile. "Actually, the doctor assured me that everything will be fine. He's helped me come up with a plan to disguise the pregnancy for as long as possible."Chef Vivian nodded in relief, her face brightened with a small smile. "That's good to hear, Skylar.
DIMITRI'S P.O.VI couldn't tear my eyes away as she walked out of my office, her wet dress clinging to her body, revealing a hint of her exposed hip. I tried to push the thoughts aside, my efforts were in vain as I found myself unable to stop thinking about her physicality.In stark contrast, Jennifer had a slim, model-like figure—a shape that I found quite appealing. Yet, Skylar's body was the opposite, neither thin nor fat, yet she possessed an undeniable stature. Her curves and straight legs seemed to magnetize my attention, drawing my gaze longer than I intended.I paused. For a moment, I tried to recall the initial reasons that led me to summon her. I was certain to have a reason for calling her, but as I watched her leave, those reasons seemed to disappear into thin air. I left my desk to the window, sniffing in the cold air of the evening breeze. I couldn't explain myself each time she was looking at me, there was this different feeling I always felt each time I saw her.I was
SKYLAR'S P.O.VI thought I was dreaming when I started feeling pain in my chest. But I realized it wasn't a dream as the pain silently increased.I wondered why I was feeling this pain for no reason, and I could feel the pain on my cheek like someone had just punched my face.All the maids were eating at the dining. Not the royal dining room, don't get me wrong. We were all having a very fascinating conversation for the first time in weeks. I wasn't paying attention as I tried to subside the pain I was feeling.At first, I thought it was the fever rising again, but when the pain seemed to increase only in some parts, it was something else."Are you alright?" Roselle asked, touching my hand."Uhm... I'm not sure. I feel kinda strange inside." "Strange like?" I sighed. "I don't know.""You all have to hurry up, the Alpha King is on his way back home." Mrs Marie notified. Then she looked at me, "I'm specifically talking to you, Skylar."I ate my food, trying to ignore Roselle's concern
DENVER'S P.O.V"How did it all happen?" Dimitri asked, looking concerned."I think someone in the pack house has been sending them information." I answered, feeling less concerned."And you haven't done something about it?" Citrus asked."I will. I don't have to make it too obvious or the intruder will find chances to escape. But I've sent a few people to keep an eye on it, we're working on it."I noticed Dimitri look at my eyebrow, he was observing the bruise. Then he asked. "You should have healed by now.""It's complicated.""What's happening?" He asked again."I don't know.""Your wolf is dead or something?"I raised my eyebrow, giving him a questioning look. "That's the only way the healing powers seem to be slow."I rolled my eyes. "My wolf is perfectly fine, it's just been on bad vibes lately.""Then you need to get it back or the bruise will take time to heal."For some reason I didn't want the bruises to heal. I wanted to feel what it was like to be a human, how to endure pai
SKYLAR'S P.O.VIT'S another day of – not hope – misery.I blamed myself for showing how lost I was towards Dimitri, now Alpha Denver will never let me see him. Who knows what's going to happen between them? What if they end up having issues between them all because of me?I slapped my forehead in frustration, sighing heavily. "You're such an asshole." I cursed. I overheard chef Vivian making list of things that are needed to be bought, I saw this as an opportunity to grab I'll follow the maids out, then sneak to the telephone shop to make a call to Dimitri.But my hopes were shattered as Mrs Marie selected the maids to go. I was about to follow them but she dragged my collar, pulling me back."And where do you think you are going?""Nowhere. I just want to help them out with the foodstuffs.""There are five of them that can do it."My only hope of hearing his voice was gone. I thought of something else to do, but each suggestion I come up with ends up being one that would probably
SKYLAR'S P.O.V"I'm leaving, but it's only for two days. Don't even think of my absence as a chance to do however you want because no matter where I am, I will have my eyes on you." He threatened."Whatever you do, think or say, I'll always have a way to know everything about you. So, try not to misbehave, or you'll regret ever being born."Those were the words he said to me before leaving the pack house, that was about five hours ago. Here I am, thinking of a better way to sneak out of here without anyone knowing my whereabouts.I'm really stuck on what to do right now. If I eventually get caught sneaking out, it would definitely anger Alpha Denver and likewise put me in severe danger. On the other hand, staying in the pack house won't solve any problem either. It's so stifling and difficult for me.I have to meet with Dimitri, and I need to tell him the truth or he will find out the hard way. He needs to know that we aren't mates, plus the fact that I am carrying the Alpha's child w
SKYLAR'S P.O.VFOR the first time I felt unmoved by her words. It felt more like she wasn't actually talking to me. I acted not to care because I felt it was none of my business whether or not Alpha Denver was going to get married to her.And she looked up in the heel as she said that. Perhaps she thinks I'd feel jealous of her. Cut the crap, Miss, I'm not interested.I never knew I'd find my breath until I left the room. Once again, I could feel life inside of me rather than suffocation. I left for my room, sitting beside my window since I wasn't feeling sleepy. I was thinking about Dimitri and how things would end up with me telling him the truth. I can imagine his face in my head. I know it will definitely hurt him to learn that I already have a mate. Worse still, my mate was his best friend.It will hurt him especially to know that I am carrying his best friend's child. I can't stop imagining the pain and sadness on his face. That beautiful face. It fucking hurts. Even without lo
