Chapter 82.Carter's POV. We walked quietly with Jimmy constantly urging me to walk faster. If I had any magical powers, I would have made him close his mouth and not be able to open it ever again. His voice was irritating as hell. When we were at the beta house….Yes.Beta.Because I was never going to refer to him as Alpha.He didn't even deserve the beta position. No beta would betray their Alpha just like he did. He was more than a monster. Satan, I will say because this level of wickedness could only be compared to Satan and that's what he was.The door was pushed open. Silas got in first. I hesitated to enter, but Jimmy wouldn't let me be as he pushed me inside. I just shook my head. They should be lucky and have their beta kill me now else, they are going to regret ever doing this to me and my family. When I entered the room where the evil man was seated, with a cheerful grin on his face, I looked around to see the massive army he had surrounding him. I thought he wa
Chapter 84.Carter's POV. I sent my hand around my neck to caress it once the shackles were taken off. I preferred to call them Shackles this time, because that's exactly what it was.We were under his protective watch just like slaves. I can’t help but wonder how my brother and my girl are doing back In the dungeon. "Offer him a chair to sit in." The beta instructed when Jimmy stepped to the side with the chains in his hand.Immediately, a small wooden stool was placed behind me and I was pressed to sit on it.While seated, I kept rubbing the areas where my hands were being chained.The chain had left a black and ugly mark on my risk and I'm pretty sure that that's the same thing with my neck. They are going to get ten times what they have done. "Alright, time to proceed. I initially wanted to tell you something before going to the real reason I brought you here and I hope you listen carefully." My eyes gaze up at his face which held no form of remorse for what he was doing.I s
Chapter 84.Aurora's POV. I don't know exactly what those people have done to Carter ever since he was taken from here. I couldn't even mind link him because I was too weak to do so. I was so exhausted that even talking was more than me.Even when he was being taken away, I didn't even notice because I was completely lost in the pain that was eating me up. I had been put under severe torture for four moons and I hope you understand what that means. Thank goodness for Mia who didn't shut me out . She was there to see to it that I was completely healed from all this torment. I was waiting for them to come again today and do what they normally do, but instead, they came and took Carter away from me.I just hope that no harm comes to him because I wouldn't be able to take it if that happened. What did they take him in the first place? What crime did he commit aside from just sticking around with me?No matter how hard I tried to mind link him, it wasn't going through. He didn’t tr
Chapter 85.Carter's POV. That was a very hard decision. There was no way on earth I was ever going to marry Chloe and reject Aurora. Aurora was my mate, the only girl I should ever have in my life. Nobody else. However, the fear of losing her and my brother was eating me up. I didn't want to see that come to pass. I would be dead before that could come to pass.I loved her and I would do anything to protect her, no matter what it takes. I hope that she gets to understand me when I eventually explain things to her before rejecting her.She has never been mine to begin with. I treated her so wrongly before and hope that after this, she gets to live the best of her life.A life free of all the torments she had gone through. She will definitely be happier that way.That's what she deserves after what she has been through. It was quite a tough decision, but for her safety, I had to do anything.I was present standing in front of beta Gideon He had his hands behind his back, as he
Chapter 87.Aurora's POV. Should I say that Carter had completely given up on me or was I actually over thinking things?No messages, no form of communication. I have tried to mindlink him, but he keeps shutting me out and I don't know why. "Do you think Chloe was right when she said Carter was going to choose her over me?” I turned my head to Declan and he looked at me.I could sit on my own at this time. I didn't have to be supported again or be helped. You know the sad thing about it, we were still in chains and had no hopes about when we were going to get released. If at all we were going to be released and not killed. 'You already know who that girl is and I don't think you should believe whatever thing she says. She has lost her mind.”Declan glanced back at me with a stern look on his face.I know I shouldn't be listening to what she said, but it's been days now and I haven't heard anything from him. He has been ignoring my mind links which to me meant that she was right
Chapter 87.Aurora's POV. I sat weakly on the floor and watched as the devilish man narrated how he plotted my father's death. He was so good at killing that he killed literally anyone that stood in his way."What exactly did my father do to you, you monster? Why did you have to do that to him? Is that how black your heart is? You go about killing just anyone, you are just so despicable!" I scolded at the top of my voice with anger rising in me and coursing through every vein in my body. I knew that was not going to mean anything to him. The man was totally heartless and none of these were going to mean anything to him."It's like you didn't hear what I said earlier. I wanted this position, I have wanted to be the Alpha king for a very long time. Many years ago, I didn't have that opportunity. I was not really that close with the king and to be on his good side, I had to do something, so that he would notice me and put me in his good books. Fortunately for your father, he was my
Chapter 88.Carter's POV. I was stuck in this place with nothing to do. No decision to make . I was lost. It has been two days since I was ordered to be brought here by Beta Gideon. I couldn't breathe properly. I could manage if it was just me in the room, but I couldn't not be around Chloe. She breathed evil and I couldn't stand it. Everything was devastating. How could I possibly get out of this and alive?I couldn't just stay here and do nothing. I needed to start devising a plan to leave this place. I could never love Chloe. I know I did before, but not anymore. She wasn't worth it and I wish she could realize this and go look for someone else or better still, go find the right person for her.I didn't like her around me, not after she had conspired to kill my father and take over the pack.I was never going to let them win over me. I was my father's first son and I needed to take matters into my hands and teach them all a lesson. I lay in bed with my hands crossed behin
Chapter 89Carter's POV. Another day had begun with the evil family I was trapped in.Chloe had gone to my house the previous night and brought some clothes for me. I didn't deny them because they were my clothes after all and besides the ones I had on were completely out of place.I just left the bathroom after taking my bath.I took my clothes in the bath with me. I didn't want that bitch to walk in on me naked.I know we have seen each other naked before, but that was before and I don’t want a repeat of that. I was never going to let that happen ever again. "I see that you have already taken your bath, that's beautiful then. I was already having a headache on how I was going to convince you to walk into that bathroom and take a shower. Thank the Goddess that you had reasoned that out and taken upon yourself to do that.”Chloe stood at the door with her hands shoved into the pockets of the short black ripped skirt she was putting on and a black shirt over it.She even had blac
THE END.NARRATOR'S POV.SEVEN YEARS LATER.“Kol, Hardin, I don't think this is a great idea, let's just go back home.” Melissa, the youngest and only girl among the three children cried, but the guys paid no heed to her.“Come on Lisa, don't be scared.” Hardin, who was the oldest and the son of Carter and Aurora, urged her. “I promise nothing will happen to you, I will protect you.”“Yes.” Kol added. “We will protect you. You are our princess, remember?” Kol asked and Melissa quickly nodded her head.Kol was Arthur’s son and Melissa was Declan’s daughter.Hardin, the oldest was seven years old, Kol was six and Melissa was four. The two guys adored Melissa.“Good. So take my hand and let me guide you down.” Melissa, despite the fear gripping her little heart, stretched her hand forward to Hardin, who took it and carefully led the way down the steep road that led to the little river which was their destination.Carter and Arthur had brought the little guys to the river a few days ago
CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY-THREE.ARTHUR’S POV.When Aurora first told me that she was going to try to talk Carter into the merging Royal High, I tried to discourage her from doing so because I thought she was only going to provoke him. I mean, the guy are up in a Royal household and he has always been treated special all his life. Telling him people like him had equal rights with other ordinary pack members was going to sting his heart and who knows what he might do, but I guess I was wrong. Aurora made the suggestion and he welcomed it which further proved his wiseness as a true Alpha.Today was the inauguration party of the new merged Shadow High School and I was elated to attend and see rich split kids be put in their places.Most leaders opposed the merge, but Alpha Carter paid no heed to this because he knew that was the right thing to do.The ceremony is taking place in the school hall and I am one of the people seated at the high table.Who would have thought I would be a
CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY-TWO.AURORA’S POV.News of my pregnancy spread like wildfire. The entire pack was in immense joy when they found out that their Future alpha was already on the way. I have never received so many gifts in my entire life. Every pack member sent at least a gift for the heir I was carrying.It's been a few months now and everything is going on smoothly. My pregnancy journey is amazing, exhausting and annoying.Amazing in the sense that everyone treats me so nicely wherever I go. They have all totally forgotten about the fact that I used to be a mere omega and a low life especially after Carter cleared my father’s name. It feels really good to be treated nicely by others.It is exhausting because I'm getting heavier as the days go by. Werewolf pregnancies last a much less shorter term because pups develop faster than humans, so at two months, I already have a huge bump and I will be going birth soon.And lastly, it is annoying because Carter won’t let me do a
CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY-ONE.AURORA’S POV.“Declan and Arthur are such lucky guys. Their mates are so pretty!” Aurora gushes once we get into our bedroom. Since I'm the last to get in, I close the door behind me and walk over to her.“That would mean I'm the luckiest of them all.” I pull her into arms and she looks at me, smiling.“And, why do you say so?”“Because you, my mate, are the most beautiful woman to ever Grace this earth.” I compliment from the depth of my heart.She blushes hard. Her cheeks turn tomato red and she buries her face into my chest to hide the shyness on her face.“Stop it!” She mumbles under her breath and I laugh at her.“You still get shy every time I give you a compliment. That’s cute to watch.“Oh you go away!” She pushes my chest and escapes from my hold. I watch in silence as she sits on the plays with her fingers.“Things are moving better than I expected them to move.” I approach the bed and perch by her side. She looks up at me, curiosity fille
CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY.CARTER’S POV.The moment I stretch my hand to knock on my room door, my phone rings in my pocket. Bloody hell! This is like the one thousandth phone call I'm receiving today. I quickly withdrew my hand and fish the phone out of my pocket. Arthur’s name flashes on the caller ID and I furrow my brows.He hardly calls me after work hours. I wonder what’s wrong.I answer the call and press the phone on my ear, holding it with my left hand while I knock on the door with my right.“Hello, Arthur.” I greet.“Alpha Carter.” He calls and I do an eye roll. I have asked several times to quit addressing me as Alpha Carter and just call me Carter, but he just won’t listen.“Yes, Beta Arthur.” I address him as such so as to irritate him. He hates it when I call him that. He lets out a heavy sigh which makes me understand that he doesn’t want to have this argument with me. What he has to say must be very important for him to dismiss this chance of argument. Arthur is
CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY-NINE.ARTHURS'S POV.My life has changed.A few months ago, I used to be one of the outcasts of the pack. A low life, but today, here lam, living in the castle and helping out with pack activities, I can only be grateful to Aurora for paving the way to my success. If I didn't come to fight Alpha Carter that night, I would have been locked up in the dungeon and I would not be here, doing something more useful with my life. I am truly grateful to her.Every time I remember that I used to have a crush on her, I hit myself hard. I can't believe I had asked her to run away with me. That is the most ridiculous thing I have ever done in my entire life.Trying to convince someone else's mate to flee with me.Carter and Aurora started on a very bad foot. They hated each other and Carter treated her really poorly, but right now, they are inseparable. They are not only the best lovers, but they are the best Alpha and Luna. The pack is doing very well because of how
CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY-EIGHT.DECLAN'S POV.I have been on an emotional roller coaster for the past months. Right now, I don't even know what I'm feeling. My father was killed by the evil Beta Gideon, my brother almost forced to marry Chloe who is now of late as well. I was locked up in the dungeon for a week with barely any food or water. I thought I was going to die until my brother came and saved me and everyone else in the cell, including his mate.Now that he has taken over as he should, the pack is at peace and everything is going on smoothly as they should. I'm happy that he is leading the pack the way our father would have wanted him to, but I'm sad because our father is no longer here with us.It's true that we only miss what we have when we lose it.When my father was alive, the last thing I did was spend time with him. I was always in my space, doing my own thing. I used to tum down every guting he proposed, but right now, I wish he was here to do all those things.
Chapter 128Aurora's POV.Carter had been all over the place, for the party that was to hold tomorrow It has been a few days since he took me to that hill for a picnic. I'm glad he did.I neve knew I needed that, till I made my way up there. The gentle gust of wind that kept blowing over the tree that we were underneath it, was something else. I never knew such a place existed in the Shadow pack.It was more than beautiful. Well, I don't even want to talk about what happened after I pressed my lips against his.We literally went naked on top of that hill.It was a crazy but rare feeling. Something I would like to experience again and again. Oh, I almost forgot that, I had to pay doctor Savanna a visit. I had promised to go see her, after I saw some changes in my body.However, Carter had come up with his whole picnic thing, which I couldn't deny him.I enjoyed every bit of it.Carter, Declan and Arthur had left early in the morning; to complete the preparations for tomorrow.
Chapter 127Carter’s POV.The days have slowly passed by, and I am so happy for the new development. Everything was going on smoothly, like nothing had happened before. Still, I’m happy with the way that things were moving. At least this shows that there was some hope for us and to every other member in this pack. I was going to do my best to make sure that everyone is fine and they have nothing to worry about. My father is dead and automatically I become the new alpha, which means that the life of every member in this pack is in my hands and I need to protect them with everything that I have. Aside from that, today was the day I am going to take Aurora to the surprise I have been planning all along. No one knew about this. It was just me and my wolf and that of Auroras too, because I know that laden must be communicating with her and eventually he must have told her everything, which was OK by me. However, I have told him that none of these should get to Aurora. It
