Alpha Michael's POV:

From the moment I stepped into the Palace, I could tell that Catherine was deeply uncomfortable. Of course, it was her first time being the host of a dinner get-together and I had asked that she take care of everything, which was a dick move by the way.

I knew I was mad at her because of what she did last night and I had asked her to do this mostly out of spite which was definitely the wrong move. No matter how mad she made me, I shouldn't have asked her to do any of that. It wasn't good for either of us or our guests.

But I was surprised to find out that she was doing really well with everything. She was taking control and that made me so happy but I didn't dare show it.

I just stood there, watching as she welcomed the Alpha of Dark Moon before I decided to step in.

The surprise in her face lingered even when I stood around and when I left, I left with the assurance that she was going to take care of everything.

And now, I am back. Of

    Catherine's POV: After dinner, everyone was left to mingle with one another. I remained in my seat for a long time, bracing for socialization and watching Michael do it so flawlessly. Well, he knew a lot of people here and I did not. Not at all. "You're lucky, you know?" I whipped my head to the side. A woman who I hadn't seen was seated right beside me, a beautiful but caustic smile on her face. She had the most beautiful shade of blond hair and her eyes were as blue as the seas. None of that did justice to her beauty. She was an epitome of perfection. "Hello to you too." I replied, feeling slightly awkward that I was being directly spoken to. "And what do you mean?" Her eyes fleeted over to Michael who stood before two men with a glass of wine in his hand. I turned back to look at her. "You're so smitten." Smitten? What the hell was she talking about? I would have asked her to mind her business if I didn't have to pretend like I really was. From the looks of

    Alpha Michael's POV; After she left, I went straight to Celine, pushing past the other guests and not even looking at their faces. She was standing with Grace and they were whispering about something that made her cackle with laughter. "Excuse me ladies, may I have a minute with Celine?" "Of course," Grace nodded, a smile still on her face. "Thank you for inviting us tonight. Great dinner by the way. Your wife is so beautiful. I wish I had talked to her before she left." "His wife?" Celine spluttered a laugh and before she could say anything else, I pulled her to the side and took her away from the hall, right back to where I was standing with Catherine before she angrily left. "What the fuck is wrong with you, huh?" She raised her brows in faux confusion. "What are you talking about? Don't tell me you pulled me all the way from the hall to this place to ask me that?" "What did you say to her?" I hissed, glaring down at her. Celine only leaned against

    Catherine's POV: "You're not leaving. I will not allow it." Those were his next words after my speech. His expression was unreadable but I know he really means it when he says that I am not leaving. "Why?" I asked, eyes wide in exasperation. "Why won't you let me leave? Why would you tell everyone we are divorced and yet, you won't let me leave? Why? Have I done something to upset you? Tell me if I have because I am tired of all these. I am tired of being on the receiving end of everything. It never affects you. Hell, you're Alpha Michael of Evergreen Pack and I am just a woman who happens to be your Luna. Unluckily. So what exactly do you want from me?!" "Nothing, Catherine. I think you're making a brash decision right now and this is me not trying to manipulate you believing you're wrong for wanting to leave. I totally understand why but I don't want you to leave because we can talk this out." "What's there to talk about?" She flapped her hand and sighed with

    Peter's POV; "What the hell do you mean by that? I asked you to do one thing and you haven't!" I snarled, tossing the glass of wine I had in my hand across the room where it shattered against the wall into tiny bits. "What the fuck is wrong with you?! Why don't you ever follow simple fucking instruction?!" Yuri stood at the other side of the room, his expression unreadable. I could tell that he was embarrassed but that didn't matter in the face of the duty I had assigned to him. He was messing things up really terribly. "She's hard to catch and you know that," He replied, his voice notches lower. "She barely ever leaves the Palace and whenever she does, she's never alone. I have seen her twice and she was with Alpha Michael. Trying to intercept them both is like signing a fucking death note and you of all people knows that." Raking my fingers through my hair, I try not to scream out loud. Neither of my plans have worked. Michael is always there to ruin it. If there's a

    Catherine's POV: "Why are we getting dressed, mum?" Julia asked as I slipped a pink dress over her head. Her pink jacket lay on the bed beside me and I picked it up before placing it on her chest to size her. "We're going out this evening. To the park." I smiled. When I saw how her eyes lit up, I decided I wasn't going to ruin that by telling her that Michael had heralded our walk to the park tonight. I was going to wait for her to see him standing by the car. That would give her no option that to grumpily follow after us since she hated being alone. A knock sounded on the door and it was pushed open. Jason walked in, dressed in a pair of jean shorts and a jacket for the cold. He had a pair of Nike Air Jordan retro shoes on his feet. I frowned, knowing fully well that Michael had gotten this for him. "You don't have that type of shoe," Julia pointed out. "Where did you get it from?" A smile covered his face. "Dad got it for me after I showed him it was what I li

    Catherine's POV: "Mum!" Julia called out as they rushed out of the bushes behind them. She turned to them with a bright smile on her face. Michael was right behind them, pulling Jason who kept talking in loud tones, pointing behind the car at a chameleon that lay hidden in the dark. I turned to see Julia running towards me. She was happy. I could tell from the way she ran towards me. She threw her arms around my legs, clinging tight onto me and laughing loudly. "Jason! He tried to catch me while we were doing hide and seek." "Just you and him?" Her face fell but she shook her head and her eyes darted over to where Michael stood with Jason. He was pointing something out to him and they both laughed when he said something. I turned back to face her before crouching to her level. "I know you don't like him but we can't deny that he's trying to be friends with you before he becomes your father. You're giving him quite a hard time and I don't think that's nice for him.

    Alpha Michael's POV: Our drive back to the Palace was silent. The car felt like a graveyard because neither of the kids or Catherine spoke. Julia must have mouthed off to Jason because he looked like he was mad at me. Of course, I'd gone overboard again. I'd over reacted. I had no idea why Aries, my werewolf, was doing this. Why he got so aggravated each time she made a mention of John and how he took care of her and the kids. It pissed me the fuck out and I wished there was a way I could curb my emotions. My relationship with Julia had gone downhill once again and all I could hope for was Catherine's explanation to the little girl that it was just a minor issue which we had already resolved. I just hoped she was going to buy into it. Julia fell asleep in Catherine's arms while Jason played games on her phone and when we finally got to the Palace, I helped Catherine who had Julia in her arms. Apparently, my little girl had sensed that I was carrying her. She protest

    Alpha Michael's POV; Soon, I am swerving into the parking lot of the three storey building located on the other end of the city which houses one of my most trusted detectives. Of course, I can handle all of these myself if I want but there's so much on my plate and I don't think I can handle it all at once. I take the steps, as the elevator is already filled up. Usually, Shaft never lets anyone coming to his office use the steps as he wants to remain hidden from the rest of the world. His establishment was located at the top floor of the building and the last two had a dentist's office and a boutique so it was really easy to hide his establishment. There was no sign indicating that he worked there. On getting to the last steps, I find my Beta wandering around and when he sees me, he stops walking and hurries towards me, a look of relief on his face. "Was wondering when you were going to arrive." "Well, here I am," I reply in a hurried tone as I brush past him. "

    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

    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!

    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
