Reece's POVI walked out of the room with a heavy body and my signature smile. The one that seemed to calm everyone and made them believe there was an actual promotion or something. I loved the door from outside and barred it with a chair. I texted Andrew saying "Go ahead". He read it and left me on read. I was not even suprised or pissed at that. I was sure he was struggling with releasing the gas. I turned to go help him when I heard the first thump. "Someone passed out please help" a man called out and immediately more people fell dying immediately. There was a guy I had noticed earlier, bigger build, bigger muscles. I had wondered what he actually did for us but it didn't bother me anymore. We just at the time. It was bothering me at the money because he was the last fellow left to die, he had yet to collapse and it looked like he was holding his breath. He pounded against the door with his fist. Almost making a hole in the top part of the door, he pounded and I saw when he s
Reece's POV Finding myself in a cloud of darkness was usually how my dreams went, when I dreamed. Today's own was no different. I stood in one spot as I waited for it to go away. If I stood for long enough the darkness usually cleared and I found a clearing in the darkness. Today was different. Immediately I found myself in the darkness and I felt it I knew it was that particular dream I had been having for the past two weeks. The nightmare started the night I murdered 35 people who worked for me. No really it was by gas and one by my hand but still. Their blood was on my hands and that blood was starting to sing and cry. I found myself walking towards the same room where it all happened. I couldn't control my body , I already knew that from reliving this experience for the past few days. I walked into the room and I looked at the faces of those people I recently killed. I had a lot of blood on my hands but I wondered why these ones could not just die and get on with it. They s
Reece's POVI rarely got surprised. I had taught myself to expect less than nothing from people so whatever you might come up with it wouldn't shocked me. I applied this in every way, everyday but this was shocking. Was it the fact that my second in command was gay or that he had a boyfriend under my nose or was it that he spared one of the people who were supposed to die. Maybe it was the fact that he still allowed live to flourish in this bear death situation. The fact that his lover had made that list meant he was subpar in skills and intelligence. There was the possibility that he got here riding on Andrew's coattails because Andrew had in fact been in charge of the hiring. I was so shocked I still felt like someone had shook me up.Maybe what was shocking was that he allowed the lover t p know he saved him rim being fired. The body we burnt was thirty five. I counted myself. That meant another had been killed in his stead. A loss of good talent. I shook of the shocked listened
Amber's POV"What's up, why are you here this late? I am sure it not to see my dirty face" I said and watched as his eyes trail over me seductively. "I could take you to my room, you could use the bathroom in there?" He said causing me to give him a look of disgust. "You wish, you pervert" I said and he laughed out loud releasing the tension in his body. He needed that laugh and I felt like I could do better. "I'm not a pervert. I'm just a man that is attracted to a beautiful woman." he said and I rolled my eyes. "That just a lie. I'm the least attractive woman in this whole house right now, I stink. Reece, I cannot remember the last time I brushed. The last time I had a shower was before I was taken." I said and he looked at me with a soft expression on his face. "Really, do you want a shower? This has nothing to do with me wanting you or anything like that. Just have a shower and this cell will be cleaned up" he said and I sighed. "I would ask you for that later, not right no
Amber's POVTo say that Recce had never been betrayed in his life would be a lie but this was the first one I was experiencing firsthand and he was not taking it lightly. "Andrew betrayed you?" I asked again and he shrugged. "I can't explain more without giving you the back story and the back story makes me feel like I deserved the betrayal." He said and I scoffed. "It almost makes me feel unloved amongst other things." he added and I waved my hands in the air. "Hello? Therapist here? Didn't you see the sign outside?" I said and he chuckled."I do these things for free." I said jokingly and he sighs. "You seems so pliable this night, you usually make me want to wrong your neck. And that's on a normal day, Amber. " he said causing me to roll my eyes. "You ungrateful brat, you seem sad so I'm doing this to comfort you." I said in a grandmother type of voice and he laughed. "Thank you for that Grandma" he said. "Tell me the back story." I said and he groaned. "You cannot force
Raze's POVIt had been weeks now. Trying to find my cheating lover and the mate she cheated on me with was not easy. I knew it would not be easy but I did not know it would last week's like this. Everyday was unproductive with their whereabouts and it was starting to trouble me. It started to bite into me. She was the one who cheated, I should feel repulsed and irritated by the thought of her, but no. She occupied my thoughts rent free and now I was just feeling worried. Was she dead already, did she get killed. Did the assassins finally get to her? I was in bed early tonight. It was another unproductive day, with no leads and no strings in her trail. It was starting to seem like fools hunt, the assassins weren't forthcoming with results and it was the same from my men as well. I sat up in bed, unwilling and afraid to sleep. She was the one who cheated and I was the one who was suffering for it. I was the one who thought of her before I slept and dreamt of her as I slept.Today wa
Amber's POVI was embarrassed, I was mortified I was.. I had no other words. Who the fuck bursts into tears at the sight of sunlight "Someone who hasn't seen it for the past two months or something" I heard Reece say and I realized that I had spoken out. He kept walking deep into the house, I wondered where he was taking me and was about to ask when he took a sharp right and opened the door of the only room there. He walked in and i was immediately hit with his scent all over the room. Yeah this was his room. He put me down and made sure I was stable on my two feet before he moved away. He pointed to a door."That's the door to the bathroom. I put a bre toothbrush there for you." He said and I nodded."these should size you, they were from the smallest man here. " He said pointed to a white tee-shirt and black joggers on the bed. "I'll come pick you after an hour. The windows are barricaded and even if you are able to leave, there are guards everywhere " he said and I frowned. "I
Amber's POV I watched as the Reece's blood crawled yo his neck and into his cheek. He looked at me furious and I shrugged. "You're the one who is hovering around me" I asked and he frowned. "You know I can't leave you alone by yourself!"he whispered but she heard him and the old woman smiled again" ahh, I still remember, not wanting to be apart even for the barest minutes" she sighed dreamily and I saw the frustration on his face. From his side another old woman tutted and waved a finger at Reece "don't let that fire die son make sure you always love her" she said and I rolled my eyes in my mind. What these people didn't know was that my room in Reece's house was a cell in the basement. They also did not know that I was in love with another man. They also did not know I was pregnant for this other man and that wanted my neck on a platter. My eyes shimmered with tears and I blinked it back furiously. It was the hormones, they were starting to get yo me I won't get caught now,
AMBER’S POV.I felt numb.Everything was dark. I struggled to open my eyes, when I finally got to open my eyes, the light was too bright for me and it affected my eyes. I had to close my eyes back. I tried opening them again and I tried adjusting my eyes to the light and I succeeded this time around. I looked around the room I was in. My hand was kind of heavy, then I looked down to check why it was then I saw Raze my mate sleeping with my hand in his.I hope I did not worry him too much, where are our babies. I looked around and I did not notice any crib or cribs. This made me wake Raze up.He first looked around and when he saw that my eyes were opened, he widened his eyes and smiled at me.“Hey babe. How are we feeling?” He asked.“Well I’m not feeling too good.” I replied trying to sit up but the pain hit me hard in my abdomen.“You’re not supposed to sit up, just stay like that until you heal okay?” He told me and I nodded my head.“Where are my kids?” I asked.He smiled.“They a

We just had dinner and we are outside getting air.Amber said she felt too choked inside.“Babe, I love you.” She said and hugged me.“I love you too babe.”We hugged each other for a while before she complained that she wanted to go inside because of the cold. She was opening the door when she suddenly screamed, holding her tummy in her hands. I suddenly felt panicked.What was going on? I asked nobody in particular.“What is wrong babe?” I asked wheeling my chair to where she was.She could not talk. She was moaning in pain and agony. I felt helpless and I wanted to cry because I could not stand up to carry her and get help. I screamed for help on top of my voice.I wanted to carry her but I remembered my situation again. Fuck. How useless could I be in this situation.I heard footsteps coming up and I kind
RAZE’s POV.I want to walk.I did not want to disappoint Amber when we finally give birth to our children. I want to be there for her, it won’t be easy for her to do things on her own when she gets pregnant and I cannot trust these maids at all. Even after I flushed them out I’m still worried about them still being among the maids. I can’t keep fitting every single one of them, it will get to a point and they would say I have issues and the last thing I want right now is for a runout to start to in the pack that I was a paranoia and it would cause another trouble.If other packs hear of this, they might want to take advantage of it and penetrate into the pack as per its at its weakest right now.

AMBER’s POV.The past few days has been stressful for me but I was still happy.Even though Rave could not walk for the time being, I tried my best to be by his side all the time as his mate. We all tried to be happy here and not think of the bad things that happened in the past. I kind of still think of my father, he was still the one that brought me into this world regardless but not think of him because I miss him but because, my children would grow up without a grandfather. I’ll make sure to tell them that the man dies too before I grew up so I don’t introduce them to the bad and shameful life he lived.I’ll make sure that if my children were girls or if just one of them turned out to be a girl, I’ll make sure that she did not go through what I went through. I’ll take care of her to their fullest and not give space for suffering. I knew that my mate, Raze would be a good father to them too. He did not have single bad blood towards me and his unborn children.He was always checking
FIVE DAYS AGOUNKNOWN'S POVI was pacing and boiling at the same time. Where the hell are they?Shouldn't they have been back with her body yet? What's taking these fools so long?I should have known that they weren't capable of doing anything! Incompetent idiots.I saw one of my men running in with sweat dripping down his face and he quickly fell to his knees.Bad news! I hate bad news!" What is it? Where are the assassins?" I growled at him and although he was scared shitless he didn't move back. Bold! That's how I like my men to be." The Intel we received was false sire! The assassins fell into their trap. A lot of them were killed and the rest that were injured were taking back to the castle." He spoke quickly.I yelled in anger and grabbed the soldier by his neck. Lifting him up and choking him." Who dared to do that?" I glared at him. Every nerve in me was burning with fiery rage. And I felt like I could wipe out an entire village just from my boiling rage." T-the Q…Q…Queen
RAZE'S POVWhen Amber left for the farm, I suddenly regretted letting her go.I know she's with Bryan but I still felt uneasy. She's with child and I'll only be okay if I was there with her but I wasn't.I called one of the guards and ordered them to follow the carriage at a safe distance and to inform me if things go south. I'm not taking any chances with my woman.An hour after speaking to the guard, they came rushing in. They had arrow wounds on their body and I quickly called the pack doctor to take care of them.But before they were taken to the hospital, they told me that the carriage was under attack and that it was a good thing I had dispatched the army warriors.What confused me now was that I never did that? I didn't dispatch the army warriors but if I didn't who did?I called the secretary in charge and was informed that Warlock had dispatched the army guards. But how did he know that the carriage was under attack?When I finally went back home, I heard voices outside the
BRYAN'S POV The hood fell off and revealed Sage with a bloodied nose and purple eyes. " What the hell happened to you?" I asked amusedly. " Warlock. He let me know just how he felt about my betrayal." He smiled but ended up wincing at the act stretched his lips, expanding the deep cut he had. I chuckled " I'm not surprised. Warlock is known for speaking with his fist and not his mouth. I would have apologized but I think you deserved it." I shrugged and stared into space. " And more. He promised to deal with me if the plan flopped. That's if, I'm still alive after this." I laughed but I could hear the sadness in his voice. " He wishes you dead?" I quirked an eyebrow. " By a million arrows. The dude doesn't know how to hide his hatred or anger " The Alpha is being they lost their generous and I'm very grateful for that but I don't think the people would be happy to have a traitor living amongst them when they eventually find out." " That is why you need to prove yourself now. A
AMBER'S POV" How's the construction going?" Raze asked as I munched on a boneless chicken." Great. The men are truly hardworking. They were digging up the ground when I got there." I answered, eating a tender chicken meat." That's good news. I hate to be this useless in a time like this." He sulked almost pouting, and I couldn't stop myself from pecking the cute lips " My lips are not cute." He glared at me." At this point, it is." I grinned from ear to ear " And don't ever call yourself useless. So what if your legs are working, note the sacarsm, it shouldn't make you feel less important. You are just as important, healthy or handicapped, to this pack." I ended, picking up another large of piece of chicken." You seem to love the chicken legs more than me now." He glowered." I love your legs too, so fat and thick." I subconsciously licked my lips " But I love the sausage between them more."His face paled " You are flirting shamelessly now?" I shrugged " Can't help it. Pregnanc
AMBER'S POV " No, Amber!" " Why are you so upset? I'm not asking for the world, you know?" I rolled my eyes. " You're asking for my world." He thundered " I'm not letting you go to the construction site." " I'm doing this for you. You're not physically capable of going there yourself or monitoring the whole process, so I'm going on your behalf." " No!." " Bryan will be there. I promise I'll just watch from afar." " It's a construction site. So many things could go wrong, a lot of debris will be falling from Goddess knows where. It's not something you can predict, okay?" " I know that, Raze. That's why I won't really go close to the site. I'll be observing it from afar." I tried to explain to him but it's like sticking a boulder. He just won't budge. " I can go but you're the one restricting me to bedrest. I can wheel myself over to the place." " And get stuck between rocks or worse, fall down from your chair because of the rocky terrain and hitting your head on a large har
