Methis Delis POV He let go of my hand, and walked away. He got into his car, and drove away. He left me standing at the door, feeling confused and conflicted and guilty and hopeful. All at the same time. It was scary as fuck. I closed the door, and locked it going back to the couch, where sat down. I tried to process what had just happened. Should I go to the hotel? Or should I stay at home? Should I ignore him? Should I reject him? Should I hate him? Should I fear him? Should I forget him? I didn't know what to do. I didn't know what to feel. I didn't know what to think. I didn't know what to choose. I looked at the clock, and saw that it was almost time for school. Getting up from the couch, I grabbed my backpack. I put on my jacket, and headed for the door. I opened the door, and stepped outside. I looked at the street, and saw his car. He was still there. He was still watching me. He was still waiting for me. He smiled, and waved. He mouthed, "I will see you." I felt a pa

Jamal POV Something told me she wasn't coming, no matter how long I waited. I checked my watch for the tenth time, feeling impatient and annoyed. It was already half an hour past the time we had agreed to meet. Where was she? Why wasn't she answering my calls or texts? We had planned this for weeks, ever since I saw her again at her apartment. I had convinced her to give me another chance, to come with me, at the very least I was planning to convince to do it for the sake of our kids, she would learn to love me later, but I just wanted us to be a family. But she was nowhere to be seen. I looked around the lobby, hoping to catch a glimpse of her. But all I saw were strangers, busy with their own lives. No one noticed me, sitting on the couch, holding a bouquet of roses. No one cared. I felt a surge of anger and frustration. I grabbed my phone and dialed her number again, hoping for a miracle. But all I got was her voicemail. "Hey, it's Methis. I can't come to the phone right now

Xander POV I glared back at the man, refusing to back down. He was big, way bigger than me, and there was some cause for concern, but I wasn't here to fight. I just wanted to ta to Methis. I looked past his shoulder at her, "This is him yeah?" She nodded. "What is he doing here? I thought I warned you not to let him in? How the hell did he get here?" "Xander, I can explain," she said, getting up and reaching for my hand. "Explain what? Why you're still seeing this jerk?" I snapped, pulling my hand away. "Hey, watch your mouth," The man said, "You don't know anything about us." "I know enough. I know you treated her like shit mister, I know you broke her heart, and I know you're not good for her," I said, glaring at him. He laughed, a cold and mocking sound. "You think you know her so well, huh? You think you're her knight in shining armor? You're nothing but a rebound, kid. A distraction. A toy." I clenched my fists, feeling a surge of adrenaline. I wanted to punch the basta

Xander POV School and work was exhausting. However, not as exhausting as having to understand why a strange man just showed up in between I and Methis trying to claim her. This man in question went by the name Jamal Kunis as I had heard Methis call his name before. I could not tell what exactly their connection was but I had a bad feeling about him. There certainly was something that Methis was trying to hide from me. Not just from me but from everyone possible. “Do you know anyone called Jamal?” I asked Sophia my sister one time. “No. Who is it?” she asked back. “I don’t know. Never mind.” It turned out not even her best friend Sophia was spared from being kept in the dark about this strange man. Though it was unlike me I went in further search of this man and off I went to the city’s library to find anything on this Jamal Kunis of which I found none. I used the internet and every means assessable but still found nothing. It was now beginning to creep me. A man who just happened

Xander POV I could swear that in that moment Jamal dies and resurrects. He flashed a nervous smile before getting himself back into his normal intimidating look. I thought that this was my chance and if I could press harder, Jamal would let something slip. Something that might lead me to discover the entire truth. “What? Does the disappearance ring any bell?” I asked. Jamal laughs and answers. “Of course it does. Methis had gone for treatment abroad. Nearly fatal thing, it was.” I cursed within myself. Jamal was probably smarter than I had anticipated. He did not evade questions. He answered them. Evasion was a sign of guilt but I knew better. Even with an aligning story from Methis and this strange man, it was still likely a well-planned lie. “Where abroad?” I asked. “I am not Methis mouthpiece. If you wish to know so much then ask her if she’ll be comfortable enough to tell you such details,” Jamal answered. “Now, seize with the interrogation, worm. I have better matters to att

Jamal’s POV In about fifteen minutes we got to the hotel. I turned off the engine and stared at it. Hotel Presidential. This was the one Conrad recommended, said it was the closest to an atmosphere deserving of an Alpha and furthest from the filth of the human realm. I hope he’s right as usual on that call. I stepped out and woke the kids, then carried our luggage from the back compartment. Someone was waiting at the staircase, and he promptly helped with the luggage while I minded the kids as we walked through the front door. Once inside, I stared at the architecture. It was wooden, looked like it had been around for at least a century. They find old things more elegant looking, and I was starting to see reason in that argument. The furniture looked impeccably maintained, each chair having a gold outline with adornments that looked handpicked by an expert. I couldn’t see the air conditioning boxes that looked so out of place in other human buildings, but the air still had the same c

Jamal's POV "Come on dad, you promised," Summer complained as she tugged on my pants while I was making a phone call. "Shhh!" I hushed her quietly, "You're interrupting my call," I told her in a whispery voice before resuming my conversation over the phone, "Yes hello, where were we?...Oh sorry, it's my daughter." "Dad!" she shrieked in her shrill voice. "Hold on, I'll call you back," I said over the phone before I hung up. "Dammit Summer, what is wrong with you?!" I yelled at her. She sniffled a bit as tears began to well up in her eyes. "Oh baby," I said compassionately as I squatted to her level holding her two little palms in my hands. "I'm so sorry for yelling at you, okay?" I said to her as she sobbed quietly. "Will you forgive Daddy?" I asked using my index finger to gently lift her chin up so we could make eye contact. "Uhn-uhn," she responded shaking her head in rejection. "Seriously? Okay, what should I get you? An ice cream?" I asked in a bid to placate her. "Hehehe,"

Methis POV I sat at the restaurant where Jamal had made reservations. I had never been to a restaurant of this quality before. It was exotic to say the least. It had yellowish walls with glistering lights and chandeliers so when they shone on the wall it gave an illusion of a golden wall. "What's taking them so long?" I grumbled as I looked at the time. I had been seated here for over twenty minutes! That's it! I'm outta here, I said in my mind and was already about to stand up when I saw Jamal in a sleek black suit walking towards me with two little kids behind him. I waited for him to walk over and take a seat along with the little kids. "You're late," I said staring at him. "Yeah, I'm sorry," he apologized, "Summer here insisted on looking extra pretty for you," he explained. "Good evening, Miss," the cute little girl in a pink dress greeted with a beaming smile. "Good evening sweetie," I responded with a smile, "You're so cute. You're Summer I'm guessing," I said. "Uhun, and

Jamal's POV"What do you mea....""Don't pretend like you haven't been thinking about me since the last time we met," she said, "I can see the nervousness in your eyes," she added as she leaned her face closer to mine while standing on her tippy toes. I quickly recoiled. Any further, and it'd have been a kiss.Ding!Finally, the ordeal was going to be over. The doors were about to slide open and I braced myself to get the hell out."Stop pretending like you don't want me!" She yelled.Affirmative. She's crazy."I would advise you to get some medical attention," I said as I slowly walked towards the doors which were now sliding open, "You need help," I added as I got out of the elevator."You can't keep it up forever. Your pretence can only take you so........." She was saying, her voice dwindling into a diminuendo as the doors slid shut. Talk about crazy.I walked down the corridor to Methis apartment and then knocked. I could hear footsteps approaching from within and took a deep bre

Jamal POV“I’m doing well, Sir.”“Why are you here? Same reason?”“Same reason, Sir.”“What have I told you in the past?”“That she is not meant for me. But hear this, Sir. I really don’t care what you think about us anymore and honestly it’s been hard for me as well having to see the one who I love reject me so often. So here’s what it is. I’m trying just one more time. Just one. That’s why I am here. To make my peace one last time. I really love her, Sir. I know that deep down you know it. She must have told you about out time during surrogacy. Even though you might look at it as a thing of tragedy which I completely understand, I implore you look at it from the point of I and Methis as well. She really enjoyed it, and so did I, Sir. You can ask for her own opinion. Just don’t intimidate her when doing it.”I sat staring for a while. Thinking if I should go on or just keep quiet. It would be nice to know what he was thinking but from the way Methis’ father kept his countenance, it w

Jamal POVI returned to the shore to see the woman sitting and examining the beast. She gave me a puzzled look.“Where did you come from?” she asked.“My pet wolf ran to me alerting me of danger,” I casually said.“Well, aren’t you a bad master leaving your pet wolf to deal with this thing alone?”“That thing knocked me unconscious that’s why I could not help him,” I lied.“Alright let’s go then. Where is your pet wolf?”“I just buried it.”“Poor thing.” She gave a little sob.We walked back to the boat and made our way back to the city.“What is that thing?” I asked.“I’m supposed to be asking you. You are the one stuck on that island with it.” She gave me a puzzled accusing look. “And a pet wolf.”“Well a different fisherman dropped me there and ran off,” I lied again.“Is it Bob? He’s the coward around here”“How did you see the beast?”“I was out fishing one day and I saw it shoot out of the sewer and I thought ‘What the hell?’ so I went after it but I lost it.”“Why didn’t you ca

Jamal POVI could not believe I was about to do this now. I was about to wrestle this large snake. I could feel my hands sweat as I made my way to the edge of the island. I stopped just beyond the water and took a deep look into the water. From here, I could see its massive outline looming deep beneath the blue, casting a dark shadow in the sea. If that thing truly did swallow the key, then it must have digested already. Either way, today was the day I made my biggest hunting kill. The only problem is unlike other animals I have hunted, this one seemed to have some sense of reasoning. So maybe I could use that against him. I usually did not like to strike first in a fight so maybe I could make this snake strike first. I’d egg him on.“HEY!” I shouted from the edge of the island. “I am ready! Let’s go! Let’s fight!”The beast circled around the water, creating little waves that emerged on the top of the ocean and splashed on the island. I was beginning to question the sanity behind thi

Xander POVI had been chatty at work for some time now. I talked often, perhaps more often than I realized because I was getting more compliments like "What made you start talking so often?" or subtler ones such as "You look to be in a good mood recently." One time, a young lady working with us asked me what had happened during the time I had first begun working here till this moment. They all thought I had received good news that carried me for a long time but in reality, I was the saddest I had ever been in my entire life. I had not realized I talked more often until all the compliments came pouring in. But somehow it all made sense.I was talking more often so I distracted myself from the pain I was feeling. My subconscious mind was trying desperately to find a new connection to forget the broken one o had with Methis. In the past few weeks, I had experienced pain that hit harder than hammer, pain that cut deeper than sword. It was more than a heartbreak. A heartbreak was not the k

Methis POVI woke up the next morning, a pounding headache threatening to split my forehead into two and tossed it in the bed next to me.Again, typical. The practice of waking up with another problem bothering me had almost become routine so I wasn't really surprised.Nevertheless, I dragged myself out of bed and prepared for school. Irrespective of my feelings, life had to go on right?The first few classes were boring as hell, and I was extremely uninterested, which made the ring of the bell for lunch break a very welcome development.I walked into the cafeteria and almost immediately, my eyes fell on her. Sophia, sat alone at a table, picking her food, a bored look in her eyes.It made me feel like shit, she was alone because of me. I was her best friend, we did everything together including lunch and now we were fighting she had to suffer the discomfort of sitting in the cafeteria and eating alone, with nobody to talk to.I had to fix that.Taking a deep breath, I grabbed my tray

Jamal’s POVI woke up, already feeling exhausted and drained, I allowed my body to revert to its human form as the involuntary transformation subsided. I lay there for a moment, the gritty sand beneath me a stark reminder of the ordeal I had just faced. The sun dipped low on the horizon, casting a warm glow across the island.As evening descended, I woke from a restless slumber. My surroundings were eerily quiet, except for the distant murmur of the ocean. Pushing myself up, I took stock of his situation. The city lights shimmered in the distance, a connection to my realm that seemed both distant and unattainable.My exploration of the island unfolded like a surreal odyssey. The air was thick with the scent of salt and untamed nature as I ventured into the heart of the unknown. The landscape revealed itself in layers — dense clusters of foliage, rugged terrain, and mysterious, hidden corners.The island's interior held a complex tapestry of life. Vibrant flowers bloomed in patches, th

Jamal’s POVThe dark witch, a shadow from the recesses of his past, cast an ominous pall over my thoughts. Her malevolence, the catalyst for the arduous journey through the realms, loomed as a reminder of the trials I had faced. In the face of this formidable adversary, I found the strength to swim against the currents.With a newfound surge of determination, O pushed against the encroaching darkness. The thought of Methis waiting, of my cubs growing up without their father, of the pack relying on my leadership, propelled me toward the surface. The image of the moonlit realm, my sovereign domain, beckoned as a distant haven.Yet, the cruel reality of physical exhaustion proved insurmountable. As my limbs strained against the water, the weight of my shifting form, soaked and weary, became an anchor dragging him into the depths.Then, everything went dark.* * *I woke up to a sound.Vaguely aware that I was lying on the floor, in the pitch darkness, my vision swimming around me, I groa

Methis’s POV“You know if you keep at this you won’t ever heal. No one is above problems. Not even me the counsellor.”“Well go deal with your own problems instead of mine!” I blurted out. All he needed to do was raise his eyebrow at me and I realized my mistake. “I am so sorry, Sir. I did not mean it that way, Sir.”“It’s fine, Miss Delis we all lose our cool occasionally.”“Please just call me Methis.”“So what’s the issue here Mehtis?”“It’s my best friend. I think she hates me now.”“Why would assume that?”“Well, I went to talk to her today and she snubbed me. A friend of mine and her brother had a fight earlier so she is mad at me for it all.”“Understandable.”“What do I do?” I asked.“Just talk to her. Keep aside any friendliness.
