NATHANI saw red."He's going to die." Zelda whispered avoiding my eyes. "Wh... What do you.. what do you mean he's going to die?" Carolyn asked with a stutter."He'll die if something is not done." Zelda said. I shoved both hands in my pockets, flexing and unflexing them as remaining still was becoming a great difficulty. "You're a powerful witch. Isn't there something you can do?" I'm beginning to wonder if I should actually leave Lannon in Zelda's care, if she's already preparing to to pronounce him dead. Lannon couldn't die. I couldn't let that happen. I won't let that happen."There is only one herb that I know that may be able to help him." She finally said."Then fucking use it!" I growled."The herb is rare. It's almost extinct. I don't have it." She said with resignation in her voice.She really was giving up."Why not?" I asked her and I almost let the anger turn me."Calm down, Nathan." Carolyn said. My eyes had already changed and I knew I had to get a grip. I took in
Surrendering To The Billionaire Alpha Chapter 64: Family Ties
NATHANI turned in the chair I was sitting in, rising out of the chair. I couldn't have heard right. I chuckled. This was a very good idea at pranking me during all the madness. Funny, but not funny. "There's absolutely no way she's pregnant, Maya.""Ooh, so you mean she's never had sex with a man?" Her brows rose to stare me down with ridiculous questions in her eyes."This isn't something I want to talk about. Not right now. Faye can't be pregnant.""Why, Nathan? Because you don't want her to be pregnant, or because she really shouldn't be?""Maya, are you absolutely sure?" Carolyn asked her, coming to stand beside me. "Of course I am. The test results don't lie.""Nathan?" Carolyn faced me now. I had no idea what they both wanted to hear from me, but I had to go find Zelda. "Maya, run those damned tests again. I'll be back." I told them as I walked past of Maya to the door. On getting back to the pack house, I took the last known location of Zelda's car and hurriedly left aga
Surrendering To The Billionaire Alpha Chapter 65: Shocking News
FAYEMy eyes slid open and shut tightly against the blinding light. It had hit me with so much force I was almost blinded. Why was everywhere so bright and white?When I opened my eyes, it was to a stark white ceiling. The walls too, were a milky white. I looked down at myself. I was lying on what looked to be a hospital bed, in a hospital dress. What was happening?I looked at the drip pierced into my hand, and I could see where it hung over the bed. I was in a hospital. But why? Last I remembered, I was in the dungeon. Why was I in the hospital and who had brought me here?I raised my head up from the pillow and immediately dropped my head back. It felt too heavy on my neck. I was far too weak. I silently took in my surroundings, noting that the room itself was a big one compared to the smaller, often shared rooms in hospitals I'd been to before. My tummy felt tight from the need to pee and I considered what to do with the needle stuck in the back of my hand.Just when I went
Surrendering To The Billionaire Alpha Chapter 66: Dance Back From Death
NATHAN"She's awake, you say?" I asked Maya, who'd just returned from her hospital."Yes, she woke up just today." She told me and then smiled, a slow suggestive smile. "And the tests?" I asked her, interlocking my fingers and dropping them on the desk before me. "She's pregnant, Nathan. Nothing you do, no amount of tests will undo it."If the tests wouldn't undo it, something else had to. I've never wanted to be a father, and I damn sure would not be one cause some ridiculously wondrous miracle had made Faye fall pregnant even when I'd used protection the very few times we'd had sex. "You're going to get rid of her now, aren't you? Just like you did–""Maya, what gives you the presumption that I want to discuss my inner thoughts with you?" I asked her, staring her down. She sure had some nerve to waltz in here and try to bring up my ex-wife."I… I just thought… since she's still in the hospital, my hospital–""That I'd discuss plans for the pregnancy with you?"She looked chagri
Surrendering To The Billionaire Alpha Chapter 67: An Alpha's Mistrust
FAYEMy eyes felt heavy when I tried to open them. My throat was itchy and my head throbbed. I lay still in bed, waiting for the heaviness in my eyes to go away.I'd been in bed for two more days doing nothing. Only resting, like Maya had said to do. Why did she care if I got better? She probably was keeping me here for a reason. The door opened and someone walked in. I peeked out of one eye and saw the same nurse from yesterday. She walked in carrying a tray with her.She walked straight to the window and pulled the curtains open and it felt like someone shoved the sun up my head. "It's too dark in here. You don't mind me pulling up the blinds, do you?" She asked.Ha, funny. She was only asking after she had already pulled the curtains open. She came to me and changed the IV bag into a smaller bag."Um... Is this my normal dosage?" I asked as soon as the extreme pounding in my head lessened."Oh, yes. I'm sorry I didn't tell you earlier. A lot has been going on. You're being disc
Surrendering To The Billionaire Alpha Chapter 68: Beyond The Unknown
FAYEThis was a horrible nightmare. I knew it was. If not, how could Nathan ever think this baby was not his? I don't even leave the pack house!The one time I had tried to, I'd really messed things up, and I was still paying for doing that. Was it just that one time that had made him distrust me so?I'd only ever been with Nathan. Why couldn't he see that?I pulled the sheets over me, tightly fisting it in my hands. The covers held little comfort. What was I supposed to do now? How would I handle this?If Nathan didn't believe the baby was his, then he wouldn't let me keep it. Would he?He might actually throw me out for real this time!I shot up to a sitting position in bed. Outside was already dark, my room also shrouded in darkness because I had been too angry and in my feelings to turn on the lights when I had returned from Nathan's study. The look of distaste on his face made me shudder all over again. I had to explain myself to him somehow, make him see reason. I climbed ou
Surrendering To The Billionaire Alpha Chapter 69: Lies of Omission
FAYE I turned around in a circle, trying to remember at which point I had gone the wrong way. I was pretty sure I walked toward the lights, but then again, I couldn't see as well in the dark as I had earlier from my room. And the trees shrouded the entire area in thick darkness. Should I try to retrace my steps back to the house? But if I did, I would definitely get caught. I was already lucky I had gotten out without being seen. I took a deep breath and decided to continue. Looking ahead, I saw the faint glow of lights that played peek-a-boo with the leaves. I exhaled. I'll just head in that direction. It had to be Maya's house. As far as I knew, it was the only house in that area. I hastened my steps and walked for minutes before I came out to a rocky road. I moved to cross to the other side when suddenly a horn blared at me. I turned towards the sound and stood in shock as the car sped to where I stood in the middle of the road. Was it Nathan? Had he discovered that I'd
Surrendering To The Billionaire Alpha Chapter 70: A Mother's Love
FAYEI couldn't believe what I'd heard. I felt sick to my stomach. And my skin prickled with sweat despite the air conditioning in the room. "Wh.. what?" I whispered.I shivered as cold fear seized me. I heard the words in my head again. He'd drowned the baby… in a tub. In a freaking tub! With his own hands!Maya ignored me. She walked to the closet in the living room and hung up her purse."What do you mean by that?" I asked, chilled with fear but still, sweat dripped off me, wetting my nightdress inside the robe. It stuck to my skin just like the dread which filled me did. It couldn't be true. It had to be a lie. It couldn't possibly be true."Maya..." I squeaked, when she didn't even attempt to say anything."Was he spelled?" I asked.Maya turned around and fixed me with a cold stare."He drowned the baby in cold blood." I flinched."No.. he wouldn't do that. Nathan wouldn't do that!" I said."We also thought that." She said. She came and stood opposite me and leaned forward o

Faye"Yvonne, this place is too much." I glanced around the fully decorated condo, my excitement simmering with the idea of this space being mine to do with as I please.The place is amazing. More than I could have hoped for, and I’ve only made it to the living room. There is a huge fireplace and a big soft gray sectional sofa that looks fluffy and comfortable. Big pillows line most of it and it looks so cozy. There is light everywhere, shining in from the floor-to-ceiling windows looking out over Vegas."That place is perfect." she told me on the phone."The security is top notch.You can order food whenever you want and they have a gym and a spa downstairs. Everything you need with only a call.""It’s safe," she pushed. "You could come stay with me if you’d prefer. I’d love to have you at home, but I thought you might want your own place."I'd started my post graduate studies, this time nearer to home and I'd gotten a whole condo to stay in for the duration of my studies. Staying wit
Surrendering To The Billionaire Alpha Chapter 161: Fresh Start
TWO MONTHS LATERFAYEI sat in front of Yvonne as she explained the dynamics of our business relationship with some other company.I wasn't listening to her. I was mostly just nodding, so she could continue to speak. "Faye? Faye? Are you listening?"I sighed and nodded, not knowing how to tell her what bothers me. "Faye tell me. You know you haven't spoken a lot about what happened in that forest with the Black Saint. I can't believe you went in there without letting me know." She still spoke of it frequently with anger l, but she was beginning to forgive me. It wasn't everyday a person's niece went to the forest of lost souls and made it out alone. I sighed again and she scolded me angrily."That's the fifteenth sigh today, fifteenth, and it's not even mid morning yet. Why do you sound like you lost a loved one, my dear?""Maybe cause I did lose a loved one?"I told her, my face falling as I remembered said loved one again. "Is this about Nathan?"I looked at her and nodded. I c
Surrendering To The Billionaire Alpha Chapter 160: I Love You, Goodbye
NATHANThe witch died how she had planned for me to die. A fitting end for someone who'd come with the sole aim of destroying me. Faye massaged her wrists where those damn fools must have tied her up before. I moved to her and held both her wrists in my hands, caressing them softly, so that the ache could go away.She wasn't responding to me. She just stood there, stiffly by my side. I looked into her face and I couldn't read anything.I missed the days when I would look at her face and see what she was thinking, what she was feeling. "Won't you go after him?" Faye asked, pointing in the direction Axel had run in. I shook my head. "Lannon will take care of him."Her mouth dropped open. "Lannon is here too?""Yes, Queeny. He entered the forest the night before we did.""I can't believe you have been lying to me this whole time. About everything!" She screamed in a hurt tone, stepping away from me. I rushed to her, brushing her still wet hair from her face and cupping her face in
Surrendering To The Billionaire Alpha Chapter 159: Fruit of The Poisoned Tree
FAYE"Briggs was my sister and you killed her!" she yelled, her voice rising on each word until my ears felt scraped by her shrill tone.Nathan looked bored with the whole thing. He didn't look as bothered by the fact that we were in danger, surrounded by our enemies who had upper hand."So that's why you want to destroy my pack so bad. Well I can't say I'm sorry, Vera. Your sister messed with the wrong pack, just like you're doing now, and she got what she deserved, just like you will." He said, with finality behind his words. She growled and screamed unfamiliar words at him, her magic sending him flying into the concrete wall. I winced as he landed with his arm and felt myself go weak for a second.I was still finding it an ordeal watching Nathan get hurt. It was a lot. "I guess we're done here."Axel said and shifted back from Vera."You can take care of them sweetie, do whatever you please."Vera smirked and strolled around to me.I saw Nathan's body tighten and get ready for a
Surrendering To The Billionaire Alpha Chapter 158: Legitimate Luna
FAYEMy heart broke at his words and I felt like a sham at his words. I'd believe I could be Luna because both Yvonne and Axel has stood by me and encouraged me. And now he said this?"Imagine my surprise when after years of devotion to the pack, Yvonne went in search of a daughter I had never heard about. A daughter that had never been around. I was passed over for you?" He said like he still couldn't believe it. "It's a fucking joke, my sweet." I felt sick at the stupid endearment.Tears formed in my eyes and I pressed them closed tightly.I knew Nathan's focus was on me, he would go ballistic of I cried. I wanted to hear all of it.No, I needed to hear everything."I didn't want Yvonne to go looking for you, prayed to the moon goddess that she didn't find you, but guess what? She did. Because this dumbass Buffon,"he said, pointing at Nathan, "threw you out. He couldn't even love you properly then and you still went back to him when you returned home. After all I'd done for you.
Surrendering To The Billionaire Alpha Chapter 157: Reigning Pain
FAYEI was sitting in a chair with my arms tied down to the arms of the chair when I came to.The black bag over my face was still there, but it wasn't tight around my face anymore.I tried to look through it but all I could see was little light, peeking at me through the bag.All of a sudden the bag was yanked off my head and I found myself looking at Axel. I felt elated that I'd found him, but I also felt angry about what he'd done. And why did he send people to kidnap me?"Axel," I started.He raised a hand, cutting me off. "it's not just you I need to talk to. I want to talk to your lover too. I wonder what could be holding him back. Does he not love you as much as you think he does, perhaps?"I snorted and his gaze flashed with annoyance."Or maybe he's content to abandon you here. Not even bother coming to get you."I glared at him and said nothing.Axel laughed. "Well, either way, we've got more than enough time together. But first, I think your friend is going to want to mee
Surrendering To The Billionaire Alpha Chapter 156: An Alpha's Mate
NATHANThere was a tinkle of laughter in the air when I woke up.The sound was pleasant to my ears and made me ache to find the owner of the laugh.My eyes slid open and rested on Faye. Something was making her happy this morning.I could relate too, cause I felt really happy too. Despite everything that had happened yesterday, it was great to see that we were okay.In fact, we were more than okay. We had finally talked about the part of me that I'd always locked away, never wanted to talk about with anyone, or show anybody.She giggled again, looking up at something I couldn't see and I had to ask her. "Heyy, Queeny." I said, wondering how she'd react this time to the nickname she was always irritated by. "Heyyy." She replied, not really paying me much attention. There was an excitement to her movements though, and a wide smile on her face. I could watch her smile all day, or just listen to her laugh and feel good when the day ended. "What are you doing?" I asked her.Not to
Surrendering To The Billionaire Alpha Chapter 155: Cheese In The Mouse Trap
FAYEI held his bandaged hands in my hands. He'd scared the hell out of me when he had run out on me like that. I couldn't believe what I had heard. He'd said Dad, and then he'd started calling out mother.I didn't know what he'd been seeing but it sure felt very intense from where I had witnessed it.There was no one else in the forest except for me and Faye, everything else was false. I told myself repeatedly, trying to quell the worry I had now. What if I was the problem that needed to be stopped?What if I saw things just as clearly as Nathan had?I shook my head and refused to fall for it. "We need to keep moving." Nathan said to me and I agreed.We had to leave that area. We had both taken a drink of the potion now, and nothing more could happen to us for a few more hours.It was getting dark now. I didn't know if this was an effect of the forest magic or something else but we had to rest. We stopped and collected wood for a fire together.We stacked the wood and then s
Surrendering To The Billionaire Alpha Chapter 154: Ghosts of The Past
NATHANI'd scared her badly.For her to have cracked and spilled those tears in front of me.She was so icy now, I doubted she ever cried infront of anyone.I had felt something change between us. She wasn't saying anything now, just walking stiffly beside me. I looked ahead, raising tree branches that hung low so that both of us could make our way through.We trudged on, the low bushes and weeds brushing against our thighs and lower legs.The roots that were off the ground were not easy to spot, and almost brought her down twice, with me reaching out to steady her and getting rebuffed each time.I could take that.For now. I would take it until she didn't want to throw me off anymore. Couldn't reject me.I walked around a tree and her eyes followed me sharperly, showing me she was watching me, even though she pretended not to be. I chuckled to myself, coming out onto the path we were walking.Something felt eerily quiet about the forest.It wasn't just that I already knew it was
