"I noticed you have been staring at me all these while, is there a problem?" Garfield asked, even though he knew that he was on top of a bigger problem.

He was only trying to use that means to see if there was a way he could get to convince Elena and get her to continue the journey with them, even if she was tired.

Elena on the other hand, nodded in disapproval and turned her face away from him.

***

Marcus had to live with the bitter realization that Elena was finally out of his life and they were obviously never going to set eyes on each other anymore, unless a great force brought them together once again.

He was beginning to appreciate her more now that she was nowhere to be found. He just couldn't believe what he had brought upon himself by having to frustrate such a sweet soul as Elena to the point of her running out for the safety of her life.

"She definitely should be with my baby right now." He thought aloud to himself. He was right anyway, they both had engaged in a hot steam

    "It's my daughters we are talking about here, remember?" Elijah asked."I don't fucking care who you are talking about! They all can as well kiss their asses if they so wish." It then dawned on Elijah that he was all alone after all, he had always been alone but he was probably just realizing.Marcus was no person to be confidential about, not after all he had done to several people he had dealings with.Elijah knew better right now. He gently got up from where he was sitting and headed to the door. He made no attempt to either look back at Marcus nor say anything else to him, and the same way, Marcus reciprocated the energy by also not uttering a word to him.Marcus on the other hand feels empty all of a sudden. There were no more feasts in his pack like it used to. He was literally downcast and felt downtrodden for the fact that Elena was no longer with him.The realization of it was what pierced him hard. He couldn't stop reminiscing on the good old days he always made out to Elen

    Marcus assembled before the soldiers afterwards and stroked his chariot. "This is the mission guys, I need you all to act accordingly so that we can achieve this purpose. Are you prepared to hear what I have to say?" He asked and the whole soldiers nodded in affirmation while responding at the same time."Alright, in that note, I'll just go ahead with what the plan is." He began and mounted the chariot beside him. "I'm sure you all know the man named Elijah. Well, he is trying to play smart with me by keeping Elena in his custody all this while and making it look like she escaped of her own accord. She certainly knows nothing about the pack, so how come was she able to escape on her own? There is something Elijah is not telling us, and for that reason, we will invade his territory and force words out of his mouth."The soldiers all held up their swords against their neck. They were all more than prepared to carry out the Alpha's wish, and so was he, the Alpha.He waved his hands at t

    "Where are you taking my father to?" Herald asked and went after the soldiers. "Stop! You can't take my father away just like that! What has he done?" "And who says I can't take your father? Do I have to make a public announcement before I take action in my own pack?" Alpha Marcus yelled at her as he turned his gaze to her.She went down on her knees that instant and raised her hands up above her head in surrender. "I'm sorry Alpha Marcus, I never knew you were the one behind the order.""Why the hell are you pleading with this evil man here? He is taking father away from us and all you can do is kneel down there and apologize to him?" Susan yelled in anger, surprised by the sudden way her sister whom she expected to be mean and hard going on the Alpha, turned out to be all soft and even apologized to him. For what reason exactly?She hissed and headed to where her father was being held down on the horse by some of the soldiers. "If no one else is going to do anything about this, I'l

    BETRAYAL OF A FRIEND"It's nothing mom, don't bother yourself." Susan scoffed with a sly smile and peeked at her sisters who winked at her in return.Instead, the woman's worry grew even more intense. She heaved a deep sigh and took Susan by the hand, leading her to a seat behind them."You girls should leave us. I want to have a word with your sister." She said, turning to the other girls. "We'll be with you both shortly.""But mom…" Herald said, countering her mother's order, but what followed was a loud noise as her mother yelled at her."No buts! I said leave!""Okay, okay… it's fine. We will leave, but remember your promise." Herald retorted hesitantly and dragged Malia with her as they trooped out. They stopped right at the door and winked at Susan to stick to the plan, when their mother had turned her gaze to the other side.***"Susan.." Jennifer called out to her daughter whose gaze was still fixed on the door. "You know you can trust me right? If your sisters would lie to m

    BANTERED"Do you still want to run your mouth or will you keep calm and let me carry out my purpose for bringing you here?" Alpha Marcus asked in a mocking tone."You had better start speaking now that you have my audience because if I change my mind, you will have to beg me to get it back." Elijah shot back at him.Elijah knew so well that the Alpha was tipsy at the moment and he also was not going to give him room to act on his intelligence. He didn't mind if his head was going to be chopped off instantly. He simply didn't care.Alpha Marcus laughed heartily and began to encircle him. "Oh wow! I never knew I would have to beg for your audience even after tying you up." He teased. "What other choice do you have my friend? Don't you think I'll chop your head off if you dare keep me, the Alpha, waiting?"He was beginning to sound more mean and serious and that made Elijah a bit happy. He was overjoyed within himself for the fact that the Alpha had just spoken those threatening words to

    THE FIGHT FOR LIFEAs soon as her daughter was out of the room and she was all alone by herself, Jennifer sat up on the couch and thought of a plan."That monster has something up his sleeves, but he must not succeed in dragging my mate along with him." She said affirmatively. "I will make sure that I visit him right away and get him to release my mate from his trap."She hurriedly went to the kitchen and sprinkled an even amount of water on her face, and in turn stormed out of the building, since she was already putting on a presentable dress.She yelled aggressively as she headed to the palace, and anyone who encountered her on the way made sure to stay far away from her as they were certain her anger was not just an ordinary one. ***"Alpha Marcus, release my mate to me right now or watch me rip you and your guards apart." She barked the instant she got into the palace and caught the Alpha as he was almost about to leave the palace.The guards and the soldiers all encircled her, e

    REGRETS IN BETWEENElijah was beginning to blame himself for having trusted Alpha Marcus with his niece, by selling her off to him.He expected that to boost their relationship even more since he had always made mention of needing a personal maid to himself, but no, all he could get in return was insults upon insults and the Alpha putting up a threat on his life.But he was never going to let that happen anymore, he had been calm all along with the Alpha all this while, but not anymore! And now that his mate was here also for the same purpose, it was going to be easier getting the Alpha to back down from any threats he had on his life.Elijah surely knew who he got mated to, and that was more reason why he didn't dare try to stop her from fighting the Alpha.Just a few more threats from the Alpha and her wolf will completely take over her and attack the Alpha, alongside his so-called guards."Can we have a discussion inside the manor?"

    Elena's pregnancy was getting more noticeable by the day and Garfield did everything he could to ensure that she had no casualties during her pregnancy.She was obviously acting up and giving Garfield a straight face because of the pain pregnancy caused her, so he let her be and instead, stayed close to her to watch over her.No matter how harsh she spoke to him, Garfield will never retaliate or make her feel less of herself, seeing the pain she was already passing through; this was something Marcus wasn't able to give to her all through her stay with him.And it baffled her how despite the fact she was having another man's child, Garfield still loved her and cared for her, alongside the baby she was carrying. "Guys, I have this feeling that there is no witch or wizard coming after us." Garfield said, peering at the other rogues. "We will encamp here tonight and leave tomorrow morning. My mate is almost due to give birth to her child.""I think so too, and I am certain that's a good

    GARFIELD MUST BE FOUND!Elena shot another glance at Marcus and dreaded his presence. She held Carl by the hands and they turned to leave the cave.“Elena?” Marcus called out to her and she turned almost immediately as if she had been expecting his call. “I have a plan that might interest you. I'm sure it would help to find your child and bring an end to Garfield's taunts.”Elena raised her brows, unable to believe what she just heard. She knew Marcus to be a man of his words but she was not yet certain if she could still trust him after all he had done to her in the past.“Trust me.” Marcus pleaded and gripped a hold of her hands, drawing close to her. His eyes and Elena's eyes locked and Elena nodded her head affirmatively as if she had seen something intriguing. She was moved by how innocent and convincing his face was, that she embraced him. “I'll give this a trial.”“You surely won't regret doing this.” Marcus assured her once again as they got locked in each other's arms. “I ha

    A TRIP BACK HOME“We'll go with the child.” Garfield said and began to wrap him up in baby linen. “We don't have all day, we have to leave at once!”Mia remained silent and stared at him for a while. “How about we take this child to your father and tell him that you are no longer Elena's mate?”“What if he asks me whose child he is?” Garfield asked, not liking the suggestion Mia had just given. “My father will never like to hear anything concerning Elena, and if he ever finds out this is Elena's child, he will never be happy with me.”“Then lie to him!” Garfield's eyes widened at Mia's suggestion. How could he not have thought about that before now? “Yes, lie to him. Tell him the child is yours. Let him understand that you mistakenly had a one night stand with a maiden and you ended up getting her pregnant.”Garfield rushed at Mia and cuddled him up in a hug, his face ever bright with smiles. “Mia, you know what? You are a genius! All this while I have been looking for a perfect way

    CONTROVERSYElena's eyes twitched and she gripped Carl's clothes, her anger suddenly melting into cold tears. "What did you just say?" She asked, her voice unusually less audible.Carl looked her in the face. "They are gone, Elena, with your child!" "What? No, tell me that's not true. Wait, they are gone to where exactly? Talk to me." Her hands wouldn't let free from Carl's clothes and she totally ignored Marcus like he never existed.Meanwhile, Marcus was meaning to hold her hands and reassure her, and promise her that he would get them before they knew it. But he wasn't sure how she would react to it, since she was obviously not in the mood to speak to him.He thought it wise to let her be until she was probably done grieving over what was not lost, before he would come into the picture and inform her about his plans, that's if she would let him.He stood up from his kneeling position and crashed into the sofa, exhaling deeply. He wouldn't let anything else trouble him because he k

    DAWN"Oh that? Trust me Carl, these are mere portraits. I wonder why you take them so seriously." Marcus opposed, trying to reassure her. But he knew deep down within himself that he was only telling her cheap lies.She was right after all when he mentioned that he was a womanizer, but not necessarily a real womanizer who went about chasing different ladies, instead, ladies came to him on a daily basis to be called his mistress.It was obviously not his fault that different ladies came to him anyway, as they were all after one thing, and that was his position as the Alpha of the pack. They all wanted to be identified as his mate and Luna of the pack at the end of the day.But everything was different with Elena. First, she was sold to him as his mate, and despite seeing the affluence and power he controlled, she didn't let that get into her head. As long as she never liked him in the first place, she despised him even till eternity and wouldn't want to be associated with him in any w

    TORN BETWEEN TWO WORLDSShe would rather leave the cave than watch them participate in such evil by taking Elena's child out. But she didn't just leave and remain silent about what was going on, she planned to go out in search of Marcus and Lina and tell them what was going on.Since she had seen them once in the cave, it wouldn't be difficult for her to recognize them and inform them about what was about to befall Elena back at the cave.She was almost not lucky with her search when she didn't find them for close to hours after stepping out of the cave. The only thing she could think of was to try to remember the name of Alpha Marcus's pack so that she could easily ask anyone how to find him.Unfortunately, she couldn't remember anything as her mind was completely bland and she couldn't place her hand around what Marcus's pack will look like.She kept traveling nevertheless, and soon, she was out of the forest. Her instincts kept pushing her and forcing her to go to a certain directi

    WHAT HAS ELENA DONE?"Not at all Garfield, that's not the truth, I promise. She never told me anything about you." Elena mustered in her defense and that of her friend, Lina.But Garfield was not going to buy her lies. He knew right from when she stepped back into the cave after being with Lina for a while, that something was amiss, and Lina was definitely the cause of it.To think that he had been the person who granted Lina easy access to see Elena earlier and now she took it as an opportunity to hold dirty discussions against him? That could never be!With the way he peered at her, Elena suspected that he had been eavesdropping on them all this while and now, he's bent on finding out everything that has been going on between her and Lina outside the cave.According to him, there must definitely be something Lina was trying to hide away from him and the rogues, which warranted her to drag Elena out of the cave and probably poison her mind about him."What then were you discussing wi

    UNCERTAIN"I'm certain you are not speaking of your own accord, someone must have said something to you about Garfield that warranted you to ask these questions. Who could that be?" Elena asked all of a sudden, and Lina shot her a glare."Is that what matters to you right now?" She yelled in a distinct tone. "You are so alarming Elena! You amaze me lately."Elena remained mute and acted like she was not the one being talked to. She was still bent on finding out who had said such ridiculous things to her about her mate, and now she wouldn't let her be.Her eyes widened suddenly. "It's Marcus right? That frustrated snitch! Why is he so obsessed with me all of a sudden that he is hell bent on destroying my relationship with Garfield?""Oh no! Elena I'm so disappointed at you!" Lina retorted and shot her a menacing glare. "So you think Marcus is doing all these just because he doesn't like Garfield?""Of course yes. What other reason could he have other than trying to end my relationship

    THE ENCOUNTER"I see no reason why you sit there and keep smiling to yourself, don't you see that we have a threat here?" The men yelled at Garfield in anger as he kept quiet for a while.He faced them and meeting their gaze, he burst out into more laughter, provoking the men further. They boiled with aggressive anger within themselves, looking at Garfield suddenly acting like it was none of his business, at the same time, they kept a close eye on Lina.Garfield finally turned to face them, now getting up. "The lady standing before you is Lina and she is Elena's best friend. I see no reason why you eat yourselves up for nothing.""Oh, you should have told us that before now." Levi mustered and turned back to Lina. "You are Elena's friend right? Or is he mistaken?""No, no.. of course not. He's not mistaken, I'm Elena's friend and I'm here to share some information with her.""Alright, in that case, I'll get her for you at once." Levi retorted, running off to the room where Elena had b

    COINCIDENCE"Yes, I'm really sorry. I was only speaking out of tension because I have a lot of things bothering me right now." Marcus finally confessed. Lina raised her already arched brows, peering into Marcus's eyes as if she had seen something disturbing. She saw a tone of sincerity in Marcus's voice and instantly melted when he went on his knees afterwards. "Come on, you don't have to do that." She stretched her hands out at him and helped him get up."Actually, like I said earlier, I've been looking for a perfect way to rescue my mate. Some people are plotting how to get her killed."Lina's eyes widened. His story sounded familiar to hers and she doubted if she would be mistaken if she said they had similar problems. She listened with keen interest as Marcus narrated his ordeal, right from his encounter with Garfield and the other rogues when he had gone to get his mate from the cave where they lived."Exactly!" Lina exclaimed as soon as she heard Marcus make mention of a cav
