Catherine's POV:

Since Michael left, I had not quite gotten myself. I couldn't go up to his room even when he had asked me to wait there for him.

I kept checking on the kids to see if they were sleeping safely, then I walked outside, over to the few guards who were left to man the Palace and when I asked them what was wrong, they refrained from telling me at all.

I decided to take a seat on the cane chair directly at the porch of the Palace, swinging my foot from side to side as I waited for the gates to be pulled open, for Michael's car to drive in.

I knew something was wrong. I could feel it in my bones that it wasn't just an attack. It was worse than that. How had today turned sour all of a sudden? I'd wanted to spend the night with Michael, talking about the whole party and how the divorce papers were found but it seemed like the universe had something else in stock for us.

I leaned back into the seat and slowly, tiredness creeped in. Even though I'd slept

    Catherine's POV: I was jolted out of my sleep when the sound of commotion floated into my ears. I pushed the covers aside and climbed out of my bed, wondering what was happening to make the Palace so noisy. Surely, we weren't under attack? I slipped into a robe and hurried out of the room, making my way to the kids' room to see that they were awake and having breakfast. Gina was seated by the window, staring outside in curiosity and once I saw that they were safe, I creeped back out of their room before making my way outside the Palace. The courtyard was crowded by people and Michael stood by the porch, speaking at the top of his voice as the crowd raged on and on. "It is my duty to keep you all safe! And we are working towards that!" "But two people have died in a space of last night and this morning, your majesty! How are we supposed to believe that?!" Micy paused for a moment before he continued to speak. "We have sealed the area and are in search of

    Catherine's POV: My drive to him, though silent, was filled with so many voices in my head. I couldn't shake off the fact that John was the one carrying out the killings. How had things gone from peaceful to chaotic all of a sudden. I remember the first time I met John. He was such a nice man, attending to me and asking me questions. I remember breaking down in tears before him after lamenting my situation to him and he had listened to me without even judging me. I remembered how he had surprised me by offering to accommodate me in his condo. In order not to make me uncomfortable, he made sure I had the access to my own privacy. That way, we rarely bumped into each other until we started to become polite to each other. He had been there during my time of labor, acting as a good companion and promising me safety and when I delivered, he was the one who had suggested the names to give our kids. Hell, he had literally bought everything they were going to be using f

    Alpha Michael's POV: "The Pack has been divided, your majesty," Trenton said as soon as he walked into my study. "False rumors are being spread around, calling you evil and scheming." "Do you know who has been spreading this news?" "That's the problem now," He sighs. "We don't know who but the townspeople have been talking about it a lot. I have tried to debunk the news but there seems to be a new order." Once again, my day is ruined. Pushing to my feet, I began to pace around, hating that I had to literally start my day by hearing more bad news. I was yet to familiarize myself with the whole reason for this but somehow, I couldn't even pinpoint where the exact issue was coming from. It is already a new day but I had spent most of my time here, brooding and wondering how the hell John had a thing to do with this. I knew I hated him from the moment I set my eyes on him but I didn't realize that there was another reason, transcending the fact that he wanted Cathe

    Catherine’s POV:We rode to the playground as he wanted, I'm very sure he wanted to forget all that was happening—but I kept having a bad feeling about leaving the palace. My kids were so overjoyed as we alighted from the car, seeing them smile that way has been my priority…but how will I dare interrupt their good feelings?“Anything wrong? You look moody…” Michael drew me outta my thoughts. I sniffed and faked a smile. “I'm okay, just carried away with their smiles.'' I lied and he caressed my cheeks. I didn't know how to tell him how I felt at that moment, but I thought we were safe since he was around us.Everything happening recently looks mysterious, especially with the fact that John is behind them. I have never for once thought of him as a villain, and he made himself one. “That must be the reason he was still pestering around me—looks like he was trying to use me as a revenge tool for Michael.'' I shook my head. “I won't let that happen even though I'm grateful for all his goo

    Alpha Michael’s POVMy mother was in a very critical condition when I reached the hospital. The doctors were gathered around her, everyone trying what they could to save her. Since I never wanted her dead nor does she want to die that way, I pay for her treatment and other things yearly, then pay visits at times and remind her that she needs to wake up.Deep down, I've been planning to visit her with Catherine when everything sets at its rightful place, so I must not lose her.I banged the door open and walked in even though I had ordered all the nurses out. I shifted one of them aside and bent low beside her…happily, she still had a pulse.“But she's still in a coma, Alpha…” the head doctor said to me. I glared at him and he rushed forward. “She still has a pause right?” I asked him and he nodded.“But, it's still going down so we are trying to bring it back to normal,” he explained, making my wolf growl. I jerked him by the collar. “I've spent millions in this hospital just to save

    Alpha Michael’s POVThe tears struggling in my eyes rolled down the moment I caught John sitting before me. What the hell was he up to? I don't even doubt that he's behind all these, but I should ask how he came to know that my mother was hospitalized—and the key to the ward she was laid to.I stood up, looking into his eyes. “What have you done, John? Are you okay upstairs? Is that how you show your love?” I growled and he smirked.“That question should be for you…” he licked his lips. “What were you thinking when you left her to be alone with the kids, knowing that there's a lot of danger out there? Is that how you love? Putting your dying mother first before her huh?” he grinned.That expression pissed me off and I landed a heavy punch on his face. He scoffed and came forward. “This won't do, just kill me for everything to end ...but it's never going to be possible because I must bring you down and take her and the kids with me.” he roared.I got it. “Did you plan to kill them sin

    Catherine’s POV:Seeing that John and the doctors already exited the ward, I rushed into the ward and hurried towards my kids. They were still on oxygen, but I could read their pulse, so I pulled away the oxygen from them, put Julia on my back, and tied her with the blanket—then I lifted Jason onto my arms and vacated the room.Thanks to the moon goddess, I successfully turned off the connections of the camera, so there was no way for them to get us. I followed the emergency exit door and found myself at the back of the hospital, then I hurried to the back gate and left through it.Down the street, everywhere looked weird, I never knew somewhere like this existed. Since it was Doctor John who took us, how come he didn't take us to his hospital? Was he trying to hide us or what?“I should be thinking about Michael, I wonder what on earth happened to him. Will he be okay? I believe that he isn't dead, but where on earth will he be?'' I reached the route and I took a cab to a nearby hosp

Lots of them pleaded for a second chance but he was deaf ears to their pleas.I was still wounded by the death of John, I wished he would come back to life and amend his ways.At times, I feel guilty. Would he have lived if I tied his wound with my jacket or was he just destined to die?

    CATHERINE’S POV The incident drew the attention of the people around, but the most difficult thing was that the culprit was not seen, and that made people contemplate what was going on. Seeing John in a pool of blood made me share his pain with him, so the least I could do at that moment was call the ambulance to come over as quickly as possible. I squatted beside him, trying to fish out the mastermind that he was talking about. I wonder why he's so foolish that he will still want me back at this point when he's very sure that I don't think about it. “I have to tell Michael what is going on….” I brought out my cell phone and dialed his number, and luckily he picked up immediately. “Doctor John was shot, but the culprit was not seen,” I announced to him. He scoffed. “It's that just it? Take him to the hospital and come back to the palace. Are you sure you weren't the target?” “That I don't know.'' I gulped. “Looked like he wanted to spill a secret and got shot because he said some

    CATHERINE’S POVSome miles away from the secret building where the hacker was staying, we saw five men all dressed in suits walking into the building. I felt devastated, I wouldn't want them to see us or it might be a bloodbath. “What do we do?” I asked Trenton, but he said nothing, rather he pulled out his cell phone and placed the hacker on a call.My heart was beating faster, he couldn't meet with them or he was a dead meat. But, why would they put a tracker on our car? To kill us on the way when they are sure that we must come after her huh? No way, he mustn't be caught, we must return to the palace alive.“Don't take the front route, and don't even take the back. Go through the basement.” Trenton said to him.I was terrified. “Won't he be caught there? Is there a way out from there?” I asked, quivering.I put him into this matter and he began working for us. If I lose him this way, I will never have peace of mind. That's why he must live no matter what.Trenton handed the car key

Now, we are done with that part, and the moment Alpha thought of heading to go see the Great Alpha, he got a message that Jennifer was waiting for him, dressed like a wanderer.Due to that, he canceled going to see the Alpha and postponed it to the next time. I hated that she was around, but I was curious to know the reason she was waiting for us, and that's why I was never against going back home because of her.The best thing we could do was to call for more vehicles to get the women in, they will have to stay in the palace until everything is resolved, or there's a possibility of Peter taking their lives to not be exposed.Jennifer was standing before us, her top torn into two as she vomited everything she had to say, but what I wasn't expecting was that she would be shot. I wonder if she was the target, why would she be shot the moment she was coming closer to me? She fell into my arms and vomited a mout

He used the way he wanted, reminding me all the time that Michael would never love me again since I cheated on him. But one thing no one knows about all this was that he planned it all because I refused to be his date…..so the only way to tarnish my image was drugging and forcing himself on me, then revealing it to Michael.I wanted to tell the truth about all that took place, but he promised to make sure Michael lost his title or his life if I ever exposed the truth. He had to do that since I am in a contract with Michael and that's one reason he can't sack me.Tears dropped from my eyes while he was busy loosening his trousers. Even if it's just this once, I have saved myself from his wrath. There's no way I'll still be his toy when he's out to get rid of his brother despite the agreement.“Just stay still!

    ALPHA MICHAEL’S POVSeeing the way the Minister of Defense gave in to dying without spilling out the producer of the substance he's administering makes me think that they are into an oath. He's the third person that I'm punishing, and they never opened up on who their mastermind is, but I have that feeling that Peter is responsible for all that.The meeting has been dismissed and the next step to take is to rescue the caged women. If I take too long, they will either be killed or taken away ... or maybe end up being sold like they planned.Hours ago, I had a bad feeling about my family, but the guards over there reassured me that they were all okay, and that gave me peace of mind.“Can we just round everything up tomorrow? I miss my kids already when it's not up to three days.” Catherine walked in, already dressed. We are heading out all together, and from there, I will head over to see the Great Alpha to report everything to him. He needs to do something, I'll end up executing them

    PETER’S POV Nothing was going as I planned, I wondered why it's so difficult to get rid of that Omega who thinks she can be an obstruction to me. Before me were my men standing with their heads bowed low, I felt like chopping off their heads over this issue. “Don't expect a dime from me until you get rid of her, you incompetent fools.” I cursed. Why would they assume she's dead when she's not? And now, she's back in the palace, sitting with Michael, and is resisting every accusation. “I just hope she gets no clue to prove her innocence, and Michael will have no option than to execute her—or the whole of you are dead.” I shrieked at them. This was getting on my nerves, the way everything is turning upside down is pissing me off. I planned to get rid of her without John's awareness, he had thought he was that smart ... but he's mistaken because I'll get rid of him as well when I'm done with Catherine and my brother. I got seated with my legs crossed, thinking of what to do next with

    ALPHA MICHAEL’S POVThe moment I stood up from my throne, the image of my kids flashed in my mind. I glanced at Catherine, hoping that they were okay. I've been speaking with the chief guard over there and he has always assured me that everything is okay. My next plan is to be able to connect with the cameras there from my laptop—I'll have to speak to the hacker about that.The minister of Justice came forth since he was the next in command after the chief minister and his deputy, he signaled the guards at the door, and the door was opened. Two hefty men walked in with the corpse lying above them.“Your Majesty, this is the corpse she murdered. Please look into this and let justice take over.” the minister of Justice uttered.I sniffed. What an asshole? “Are you saying that I have never justified a case?”He shook his head. “No, Your Majesty, please don't misunderstand me. This has to do with murder, and so you shouldn't let it slide.” I burst into laughter. “Seriously? I shouldn't l

    ALPHA MICHAEL’S POVI knew they must have planned another evil before telling me that Catherine committed murder. For goodness sake, I wonder if these old geezers will ever come to their senses and quit their stupid acts. They had the guts to tell me that Catherine isn't a Luna yet, bringing in another law that I didn't approve of, making me wonder how badly they want me dethroned.I'll patiently wait for them to scramble whatever it is all in the name of the victim that Catherine murdered, not when I know that an innocent soul will lose his or her life at this spot—but at least, I'll use it against them.I lifted my face, staring at the guard that just announced what I wasn't expecting. “Did you just say the CCTV?”He nodded. “Everything was restored by itself.”I glanced at Catherine whose face was covered with shock. How will this be explained? I can't tell if the hacker did it since I never ordered such a thing, or did Catherine do it? I tapped her, “Did you...?”She shook her hea
