He felt her stiffen and her eyes widened at the sight of someone.
Martin was curious as to why she looked that way. What could she have seen?
He followed her gaze but he didn't see what she was looking at.
She tried to calm her nerves. She wasn't aware that Alden visited the water quarters. Infact it was rare to see the nobles visit the omegas quarters. That was why she asked Martin that question earlier.
Seeing him in flesh and blood, staring at her hugging another man made her feel guilty.
The intensity of his gaze made her feel like she was cheating on him which was ridiculous given that they weren't even in good terms. He hadn't acknowledged their bond.
All the same she felt that way. She should have guessed. Ezra was unusually excited that morning but she didn't pay attention to her.
She gave Martin a rue smile as she saw the concern in his

Alden couldn't sleep. At the crack of dawn, he went to the dungeon. It was so that he could speak with Brendan without hindrance.The guards opened the gate for him and ushered him to where Brendan was.He assessed the dungeon. It reeked of cigar and ashes. The ceilings were almost dropping. The last time he was here was 10 years ago.Brendan was without clothes, bound and crouched like a criminal.They disrespected his instruction. He cocked his head. They understood and left them alone."Why did she frame you?" He asked.Brendan refused to talk. Maybe Brendan had a secret? He thought.After a while, with his head bowed. He confessed."I did it.""Care to repeat that?" He asked. Alden wanted to believe he didn't hear well."Yes, I did." He looked down ashamedly."Do you understand the consequences of this allegation?" He asked."Yes." He said somber.Alden squi

"I want to see Arnold."She called Arnold, the head of the kitchen privily.Unwrapping a parcel, contained a herb that he had never seen."I need you to put this in Alden's food.""He has been sick for a while and he's refusing to take his medication. He needs to rest, lest he breaks down." She faked concern.Arnold looked at it skeptically.She laughed in mockery."Do you think If I wanted to poison him, I'd employ your services?""I wouldn't show my face."It made sense to Arnold, she wouldn't want to show her face, if she wanted to harm Prince Alden."Ok, ma'am.

She refuted."I don't want it.""Who's the father?" Cindy asked.Did she get pregnant for another man?"It.. it is not a baby." She corrected."I'm sorry, I can't help you." Cindy refused.

Sparks flew through him, when they collided. Alden stared at her. She was a very beautiful girl. Those clothes didn't suit her at all.He quickly stretched out his hands to save her from falling.She was embarrassed, he noticed.Thank you prince Alden.""I'm sorry, it won't happen again.""I promise that I am not usually clumsy." She said."Has she forgotten about sleeping in my bed?" He thought.He nodded and smiled a little.Her lips were rosy. He would love to do more than stare at it.As much as he'd like to tease her about it, he needed to be at the forest.He found a note slipped into his room which was signed anonymous."You're in grave danger, come to our spot."How could this person have entered and left the heavily guarded house without anyone noticing it?Unless the person was in the pack house with them.

"I am extremely delighted to be given this opportunity to be your leader. I promise to serve you the way I should." Alden vowed.Then, he drew Cisca closer to him, " I am also seizing this opportunity to present to you my Queen, the one for me. The owner of my heart." He replied and the crowd erupted in louder cheers. "I accept you as my King and husband," Cisca replied with tears misting in her eyes.

Three weeks later, " Whew! I have missed this place." Cisca muttered when she arrived at the pack house.Alden chuckled as they walked upstairs together with Shawn in his arms. " I have to quickly attend to some letters, I'll be back in some minutes." He told her after placing Shawn in his cot. The calm baby watched his father who poked kisses at him. Cisca looked up, " We'll be fine, I am feeling sleepy." She said."Okay." He replied and returned to his office. A log of files waited for him and he had to attend to each of them one after the other. One was from Alpha Jared, and he stared at the file skeptically. How was he sure that this was truly from him? He heard a knock on the door. " Come in " He replied with a gruff voice. " I'm sorry for barging in." Elder Drew apologized. A maid had told him that Alden said he didn't want disturbance. Alden looked up, " It's fine, you can come in." He said and Elder Drew sat down. " I came the discuss the issue of choosing your members

" How is she doing?" Alden asked a nurse when she came out of the room. It was getting to an hour and she had not heard a baby's sound. His heart almost left his chest. He hoped nothing happened to her. " Fine, please just relax." She said and walked briskly to god knows where. Alden paced outside the door for a long time. He looked at his watch, it was another thirty minutes, and he barged into the room. " You can't be here." A nurse protested and he shot her a withering glare which made her retreat in surrender. Alden looked at Cisca who was sweating profusely on the bed as she writhed in pain. " Dr. Bart, what is happening?" He asked. " She's pushing." He replied and turned to Cisca, " Push!" Cisca tried all her might to push but nothing was coming out, " I can't." She cried. Exhaustion was written all over her.Alden was at her side at the instant, he held her hand, " You can, baby, you can." He soothed.Cisca began to cry, " I can't. I don't want this baby to die." Alden
Stuck Between Two Alphas    Required
The first thing Alden put in place was the detachment from any financial treaty between his pack and others. This required him to take his time to make strategic plans about how to generate a sustainable source of income." Hello, babe." Cisca knocked on his office door." Come in." He replied.Cisca pushed the door open and walked in with a tray. She sighed at the sight of files scattered about his desk. "Do you ever get rest?" She inquired. Alden chuckled. "I believe I would soon. I just need to put things in place." He said and rose to collect the tray from her."" Are you sure?" She asked. He didn't look like he was going to stop soon He nodded, " Of course I will. I am having conversations with a few Alphas, but we are yet to conclude." He said. " Alright." " Thanks for the cookies. But I told you to rest. We have maids." He scolded her gently." Okay." She replied. It wasn't stressful for her. In fact, she wanted to stretch her leg more. " Hmm, I don't think you will stop.
Stuck Between Two Alphas    Boredom
A week later, Cisca decided to go for a stroll in the garden. Boredom had gotten the best of her. If she spent another minute in that house, she wasn't sure of what could happen.What a sunny day, she thought as she reminisced on the recent incidents. It was very painful because she had lost very important people in her lives. First, it was Reagan, now Martin.A hand suddenly closed over her eyes and she screamed. A light familiar chuckle calmed her nerves. " What the hell?" She asked and turned to see the culprit. Alden stood before her with his hands stuck deep in his pockets. " Hello, love." Cisca burst into tears, and Alden panicked. " What is it?" "These are tears of joy." She sniffled and hugged him and sniffed his scent. She was so happy to see him. How did she not notice his scent? "I'm sorry, I should have returned much earlier. I was tidying up some things." He apologized. Cisca wiped her tears with the tip of her cloth. " It's fine. I'm just happy that you are here."

The man managed to escape, and Martin carried Amelia to the house. Cisca was waiting at the foot of the stairs and her mouth fell open when she saw an injured Amelia." What happened to her?" she asked as Martin called for other guards at the border. It was almost three a.m. before the pack house was stabilized. Alexia was baffled by what was happening. She locked herself in her room. She saw the intruder that came into the house through the window. Cisca paced around as Dr. Bart worked on Amelia. Her bleeding finally stopped and she slept off. " How did he manage to break into the house with this amount of security?" Alexia queried the next day. " We don't know, your highness. We chased him to the border, but he was able to cross it before we got it." A guard said.Alexia crossed her arms. " We will know the truth in the morning." She said. She could bet that this was targeted at her. This was what she could do." You can all leave. We'll speak about this in the morning." Martin d
Stuck Between Two Alphas    Autopsy
Dr. Bart stood amid the office with all the elders in the room and his notepad in hand. " The autopsy took longer than we anticipated." "What have you discovered?" Martin asked. Dr. Bart looked at each of them and wondered and saw the tension on their faces, " Poison was discovered in his system. It was in his system for five months. It was wolfsbane." He said. Alexia rose, she faced Nicky, "I knew it, you killed my son." She said. Everyone turned towards Nicky, and Nicky rose to her feet. " This is ridiculous." She said, " I will not allow your stupidity to rub off on me." She said.Alexia looked at Nicky, " I want an investigation to go on." She said. "I want to find out who killed my son. When I get to the root cause of this issue, I promise that I will not spare the person." She said." How do you intend to do this?" Martin replied. Alexia smirked, she already had a plan." We will visit a seer. She will tell us who killed him." She responded. Nicky's heart skipped a bit at

" How are we preparing for his burial?" Elder Drew inquired. Queen Alexia looked up with an ashy face which was puffy from crying too much. " We are doing nothing about it. The elders can around " I want an autopsy to be conducted for him." Queen Alexia ordered and the elders looked at her. " He was murdered." She explained she needed to find his murderer. The elders exchange glances between themselves. " Okay, we will inform the doctor." Elder Drew said. Martin patted her back gently as she sobbed after they left. " Everything will be fine. They'll get to the root of the matter." He assured her. He stared at her with pity-filled eyes. Alexia was unable to eat for days and she began to lose shape. " It's so sad. I know who did this." She said. Martin's hand stopped moving as he turned to look at her. " Who?" Why didn't she say anything? Moreover, didn't she also kill the king?" I suspect it was poison. Someone in this house did it." Alexia replied flippantly. Intrigued by the
Stuck Between Two Alphas    Visited
Between Cisca's frequent visits and cheering Stiles up, Cisca became a bit ill. She didn't play with her health this time as she visited the doctor immediately. Dr. Bart couldn't just stop her from staying with Stiles because he was the king, but he feared that she could catch his sickness. " You are running on low fuel." He said. " I thought that I told you not to stress yourself anymore?" He asked. "Yes, you did." Then he lowered his voice and listened to see if anyone was passing by. " Why are you staying with Stiles? You need rest." He scolded her. If Stiles was that useful, why was she mandated to stay with him? "I know, you said that it wasn't contagious right?" Dr. Bart nodded and watched her, " Yes, that doesn't mean that you should endanger your life because of whatever. I'm sure you are doing this out of pity which is good but very dangerous to your health. I don't want you to lose this baby." He said. "Alden will have my head if anything happens to you." He added.
