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 POVNine days later~My kids were still on oxygen while I was on blood transfusion. We have been on treatment since when I can't tell, all I know is that I woke up to find myself in the hospital. At first, I had thought I was dead, not until a nurse walked in and told me that a young man saved us and brought us to the hospital.But, she refused to disclose who the young man was. I was sure it wasn't Michael or was supposed to check on since then. no one had ever checked on us except for the doctors and nurses. Even when our meals were brought, they refused to tell us who sent them.I didn't want to drag, all I wanted was to live and see my kids healthy. It happened that they had difficulty breathing today and then were fixed on oxygen.Several times, I asked the nurses about Michael but they claimed not to know who that was. “Are we truly dead?'' I kept asking that to myself, but the assurance wasn't there.The news popped out, so I adjusted to be able to see what was goi
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
Alpha Michael’s POVIt's been nine days since I escaped the ambulance. It was set on fire, that was when I understood what John was talking about me being in a freezer. He intended to escape with Catherine and the kids, then put me on fire—but it happened otherwise.After a few minutes of lying lifeless on the floor of the vehicle, my wolf got back itself and took over me. I didn't know what was happening, but I could tell that I transformed and quaked the door open, not knowing that there were people around, watching to see the vehicle explode.They had noticed that I transformed and came after me, I made my way into the bush and they still came after me ... not until I reached a hilltop that had sloppy ground and slipped off. I rolled down continuously, trying to hold myself but couldn't. The pain was excruciating and my wolf growled in pain as I kept rolling.In the process, I transformed back into a human out of the pain that whelmed all over my body and then found my body in a da
Catherine's POV While reading the map and the tracker the hacker had connected to my cell phone, I reached the route reading to the bush where the tracker was signaling. The area looked like something had happened, and on the floor were ashes. “The ambulance caught fire. I just hope he didn't burn to ashes.'' I touched the ash and then left the area. It was a very hidden area, and that was why it was easy for him to be caught here. Looking at the tracker, it was time to move into the bush—a forest-like bush. It looked scary, but he had gone in, so I had to find him as well or he might be hurt. Down there, I passed through areas that seemed a bit dark, and then areas where lots of birds were living causing it to be noisy. “He made mention of a cougar, I just hope not to see any.” I thought, taking slow steps deeper until I slipped off and began tumbling downwards uncontrollably. At that spot, I didn't stop screaming. It hurt that I wanted to stand on my feet afterward because I alr
Catherine's POV:The worst thing that will happen to someone is losing their memories, it will look like you were just brought into the world. Now that Michael happened to lose his memory in the process of saving our life and his, it's time I fight for him.He won't get to know who he should avoid or welcome, and he might not even listen to me because I happen to be a stranger to him now.We left the bush and trekked down the way until we reached a junction where we were able to board a cab that drove us to the hospital. I already dropped a message for the hacker on how everything went, reminding him that it isn't the end…this is actually when the real war that I alone am left to conquer begins.Doctor John and Peter will be sad to see him alive, while Jennifer will hate that I survived, but love the fact that Michael doesn't see me as his wife any longer.“It's just for a while. I believe he will regain his memory soon.” I assured myself as we alighted from the cab, and then I paid o
Alpha Michael’s POV:Seeing that Catherine didn't take to heart that I had forgotten her, I felt a bit relieved. At least, she understood that it happened in the process of saving her and the kids and that I'll soon regain my memory. That dude had a nice plan, acting like forgetting everything would bring them closer and make them happy because they would feel that I don't know them as my enemy any longer.The look on John’s face revealed a partially successful game. To him, the next target is ruining my life and taking Catherine with the kids since I might not dodge him again and won't be conscious.I’d have called him a monster if he was behind that incident because the kids still cherished his presence. I took two steps closer to him and looked at the kids on their faces, “They have no resemblance with you so there's no proof that you're their Daddy, and they never referred to you as any, instead they did that to me.” I furrowed my brows.He smirked. “You got amnesia, so you won't
Alpha Michael’s POV:After all, I already decided to tell Catherine everything and Trenton was in support of it, so I left the room without telling her. Even if she finds out, it will be easier to explain at that time. I dropped a text to the guy with the contact number he had given me back in the bush, then he sent me the address I would find him, which I also forwarded to Trenton.Thanks to my Beta for opening my eyes, looks like I wasn't with my right senses back in that bush when I agreed to such a deal.I drove to the motel he had sent me the address and went straight to the room number. There, he was sipping from his bottle of whiskey while exhaling his mouth full of smoke. “Dude!'' I called for his attention and he turned around. “Well, I have something crucial to talk about with you.'' I got seated while he still stood watching me. “Speak!” he voiced out.Does he even recall that I’m his Alpha King, or because we seem to be in this game together? Not when I'm sure he doesn't
A week after Doctor John and Jennifer died, Michael succeeded in suing his brother and his accomplices in court while he punished the ministers of his pack with demotion and exile. 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? If I had known that there were other motives behind him, I wouldn't have bothered taking him to that hospital, but he might not have survived if I had taken him to my pack.His death is one tragedy that I didn't wish to happen, but I will have to console myself that he brought it upon himself by plotting death on my Alpha.I was lying on the bed, staring at the ceiling continuously. I was unaware when Alpha walked into the room. He touched my cheek, bringing me back to reality.“We have a visitor,” he announced and I hissed.
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
CATHERINE'S POVWe successfully rescued the women, and that made me so happy. 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
JENNIFER’S POVFor years now, I've always let him have his way with me because it looked like I was in his cage. 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! Don't cause a commotion here, let's do it peacefully so your soul
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
