Deandra povThe event had already started and we were all seated. Ryder was named the new Alpha of the pack which still seemed like a nightmare. Everything was happening so fast, the smile on my face was slowly fading as I was overwhelmed by everything going on right now, with Ryder becoming the Alpha and me being pregnant. It seemed like time was literally flying, we’ve not known each other for a long time yet it seems like we’ve known for too long. “Are you okay?” Aliya asked and I immediately snapped out of my thoughts.“Yes, I’m good.” I replied to her with a faint smile. Time was slowly passing and I needed to rest for a while. I nodded goodbye to the important guests and headed back to the room. The moment I got back to the room I laid on the bed tiredly and sighed. I remembered the bright smile on his face when he was announced the new Alpha, clearly this is what he has always wanted. ******Six months later.My belly had already grown bigger and the fate of my babies birth
Deandra povThings went on the same way for a very long time and we were living happily and peacefully, the pack members loved Ryder because of his empathy and equality he encouraged in the pack. The Rogues were not treated badly and the Omegas were treated good as well. Things kept getting better in the pack as some foreign investors became interested in the company owned by the Family which has now been passed down to Alpha Ryder. We were so happy to hear about the news that Ryder couldn’t fall asleep just thinking about it. “Do you think this is going to be a success?” Ryder asked the sleepy me. I turned to look at him struggling not to fall asleep because I have been sleeping too much lately, it’s so bad that I barely step out of the room, I just stay in the room sleeping all day. “Yes, I trust you will make it a success.” I replied to him almost in a whisper as my eyes were closing already. “Stop torturing yourself and just fall asleep, it doesn’t hurt to sleep so well.” Ryde
Daniel povIt’s been months already and we were yet to conclude the pack we have been building.“Why don’t you rest for a few minutes, you’ve barely slept for five days.” Yolanda said to me, handing a cup of water to me. I collected the cup of water and gulped it until the cup was empty. “I’m fine mom.” I replied to her and continued what I was doing. She sat down beside me and watched me for a while. It was very uncomfortable having her there because she looked like she was worried. “Mom, why don’t you take the kids to the already built area.” I said to her and continued what I was doing. She heaved a sigh and excused herself. The moment she walked away I turned to look at her. I knew she was worried about me because I have barely slept for some days, but how will I sleep when I still have a lot to achieve?“Sir Daniel, why don’t you rest a little, I will take over from here.” One of them said to me, I knew that mom had already convinced him to come help which is why he came. She
Daniel povI was shocked to hear what the young lady said, I was all sweaty thinking she must have heard the conversation between me and my mother. “What do you mean?” She was asked. The young lady lowered her head without saying anything. I let out a faint smile trying to end the chaos going on. I started thinking of what to do. “It’s fine, she must have been hurt deeply by the death of her sister.” I said to them trying to stop them from questioning her so she doesn’t talk too much incase she actually knows the truth. “You know what I’m talking about!” She yelled again angrily. This time with her voice louder than the first time. I realised it might be more serious than I thought. I walked closer to her. “Hey, look at me.” I said to her as she was avoiding eye contact with me. While I was still waiting for her reply and woman stepped forward and held her hand. I changed my attention to the woman when I noticed the way she was holding the young girl. “She’s my daughter.” The you
Deandra povRyder has been too busy with both work and the pack issues that he no longer has time for me, we barely spend up to thirty minutes together and when it’s time to go to bed, he doesn't bother talking first because he’s too tired to. The whole thing was mentally draining for me because this is the time I need him the most. I heaved a sigh and rested my head at the top of the bed waiting for him to come upstairs so we could have a conversation. After waiting for about thirty minutes he was still not up yet, so I angrily went to bed without waiting again. *********The next morning. I woke up tired while he was all dressed up for work. “Hey.” He said to me with a bright smile on his face and pecked me on the forehead. I was really upset with him and wished he could notice I was upset. “What were you doing downstairs all by yourself?” I asked curiously. He looked surprised to hear the question I asked. “Have you forgotten the foreign investors I talked about the other da
Writers povThe distance between Ryder and Andra started to grow even bigger, they were beginning to lose interest in always being around each other, so much that Andra stopped waiting for Ryder before they ate dinner. It kept going on for days without Ryder realising that there was something wrong. It was the weekend and Ryder already planned he would be spending the whole day at home with Andra. He woke up very early and sat in the sitting room waiting for her to wake up. He didn’t wake her up because he was trying not to bother her. While waiting in the sitting room Aliya stepped out of her room and sighted him in the sitting room. She was surprised he was seated there, it’s been a while since they saw him spend time at home because he’s been super busy with work. “Are you that shocked to see me at home?” Ryder asked Aliya with a bright smile on his face. She nodded her head immediately when she heard the question he asked. Ryder was slowly realising that it’s been a while sinc
Deandra povWhen I got into the room still angry Ryder walked in almost immediately and met me looking pissed in the room. I stood up from the bed angrily and headed into the bathroom. I can’t believe he still has no clue he is doing anything to piss me off. “Andra, is there a problem?” He finally asked the moment I stepped out of the toilet. I glared at him and sat on the bed. “What’s she here for?” I asked angrily. Ryder looked rather shocked to hear the question I asked like he was expecting me to be grateful rather than asking questions.“I was being thoughtful, have you been very stressed lately? I just thought getting you a help would be useful.” He explained to me, I was even more pissed after hearing what he said. I can’t believe he still can’t figure shit out. “Wait… is there something you’re not telling me? Cos you look really tense even when I’m trying to explain the situation to you.” I brushed my hair backwards angrily. I was very pissed at this point, only trying to h
Writer’s povRyder was shocked to hear Andra’s tone. He was wondering why she yelled like that on the phone. “Hey, chill… I just got home.” He replied calmly and without wasting time Andra ended the call. She was upset and a little embarrassed because she thought wrongly. “Why did I have to call at the wrong time?” Andra muttered angrily as she dropped her phone on the bed. Though she was upset, realising that he was already home before she called made her feel really embarrassed. She laid on the bed waiting for Ryder because she knew he would be on his way to her room. While she was still thinking of what to do, Ryder opened the door and walked into the room. Andra didn’t look towards his direction when he walked into the room because she was still upset with him. She noticed he came upstairs with something but she couldn’t care less as she was upset. “Andra, please we need to talk.” He said calmly with a little mad tone. Andra could tell he was trying to suppress his anger whi
Deandra povThe next morning. I woke up almost forgetting that we now have strangers living with us though they’re his family but they are complete strangers to me. And that young girl he calls his sister I know too well that she has something up her sleeves. I stood up from the bed and walked out of the room. Ryder had already left for work so it was just me and them in the house, Aliya barely had time to spend in the house because of her work. The moment I got downstairs I sighted both of them on the dinning. “This is going to be hard for me.” I muttered to myself and paused walking, but thinking about it very well, if I don’t treat them well Ryder wouldn’t be pleased because they helped him when he needed it the most. I passed the dining area and headed inside the kitchen, while I was passing my eyes met with Clarissa’s but we didn’t say anything to each other. I know they don’t like me, I can feel it. I picked a bottle of water and gulped it immediately. I was suddenly not in
Deandra povI couldn’t understand what was going on even though I wanted to. Ryder has never told me anything about having a family, he only told me he had someone he used to call mom and she has a daughter and they are not in the country but he never told me they were so close. They returned to the pack and instead of going to their mansion they chose to stay in the pack house. I didn’t find that reasonable in any way. I had to send him a message so that he can return downstairs because I don’t trust them at all. I can’t believe I will be having dinner with complete strangers.“I saw your text so I had to return downstairs.” Ryder said to me while panting, he looked so stressed, I could tell the whole thing was stressing him out as well, so I decided not to be a bitch and just go with the flow, as long as they don’t trouble me there will be peace, I just have to take it for two days. “Two days Ryder.” I reminded him. “Yes, two days.” He replied to me assuring me they’ll be leavin
Daniel’s povI couldn’t stop pacing around the room because I was very pissed at Yolanda, she has been suffering from such an illness and she never bothered to tell me anything. After finding out a few days ago when she was found unconscious in her room I have been unable to sleep.She has been in a hospital in the pack closer to the woods because we had to pretend to be someone else, if not we would be allowed inside the pack because it was all round that we were exiled from the pack.I stepped out of the room after pacing around for a while, it’s something I can’t get over and such a situation has made my hatred for Ruder worse because my mom would have told me about her I’ll was and get proper treatment if she was still the Alpha’s mother.The moment I stepped out I noticed everyone had already gone to bed, I sat outside and had a lot on my mind, where do I start from with my revenge plan? what do I do first?I kept asking myself questions that I have no answer to, the most import
Deandra pov I tried my best keeping my cool for so long but I think it’s never helped me, instead it’s made me look weaker than I really am. I couldn’t hold it in this time because they were saying more than they should already. “Who else would I be asking such a question?” I replied to him immediately. “You don’t know me, you don’t know anything about me, so don’t you dare sit down there and call me names because you don’t know me!” I said to him angrily and made a fist, it’s the absolute first time Ryder is seeing me like this I guess nothing could stop it this time. “Hey, come on, why are you getting worked up over something I was joking about.” The young man tried to make it look like I was taking it too seriously when it’s just a harmless word. “You and I know that you weren’t joking,” I said to him angrily. Though I was ready to quit the topic and head back to the house, I needed to do it the right way because that’s the only way he would know that he was really annoying.
Writer’s povYolanda was still thinking of the move to take, she knew that it would not go the way she wants if she keeps telling Daniel to stay away from Andra because it seems like he’s not giving up anytime soon. It was very exhausting for her but she had no other choice but to take that step to protect her son since he has refused to be smart about it. “Mom are you okay?” Daniel asked when he met his mother in deep thought, she raised her head to look at him and walked away. Since that day she has stopped talking to him, she only serves his food and walks away. “Mom, are we going to keep doing this? Come on, we are not children, if you’re with me tell me instead of giving this silent treatment.” Daniel said to his mother as she was walking away. Yolanda paused walking and turned back to look at him, she was wondering if he’s really stupid or he’s too slow to understand that what he is doing is the reason why she has stopped talking to him. Even though she’s thinking of a soluti
Deandra povI knew coming here would turn out like this but I was ready to take the risk, his words were hurtful but I expected them so I wasn’t too upset. “You don’t need to ask for my help before I know you need it.” I explained to him, sounding a little upset, Ryder couldn’t stop sighing while I was seated there which made me feel some type of way, it’s fine if he says what’s on his mind rather than sighing and makes me feel burdened.“Andra, you have your own thing to worry about and that’s your health and that of the baby, what would I do if anything happens to both of you?” He asked calmly. He was slowly calming down when he sensed he was becoming too mean with his words. “My baby and I are fine. I could tell from the way you were talking yesterday that you were really bothered by the loss the company is facing so I just thought I would be able to help the little way I can. Please don’t refuse my help.” I pleaded, I don’t want to have any regrets, which is why I took the bold
Deandra povAfter the conversation I had with Ryder yesterday I finally decided to show interest in the company. Maybe when we work together we would be able to work out something that’ll help the company. While Ryder was leaving the house I watched him without saying anything because I knew he would definitely stop me. “See you later.” He said to me before leaving and pecked me on the forehead. I smiled and waved goodbye while still thinking of how he would feel when he sees me in the office today. After he left the house, I stood up and hurried downstairs to eat breakfast. While eating I kept thinking about the whole situation because I needed a good reason before I left the house. While waiting I decided to place a call across to the Indian investors. They’re the ones I have a good relationship with so it’ll be better I call them, hopefully they would still be interested in the company. After dialling the number I stopped myself again, it was so hard for me to bring myself to ca
Deandra povI couldn’t believe my ears, I was dumbfounded, was it a bad idea to be worried about your husband? I kept asking myself questions, I needed to know where I was wrong but not now, right now I don't want to see his face. “I'm sorry Andra I just…”“Please go away.” I said to him Interrupting whatever it is he was planning to tell me. I just couldn't hear his voice at this point, it has to be my most embarrassing moment since we've had a misunderstanding. I can't believe he yelled at me with such a tone when I was only worried about him.“Andra.” I turned to the other side of the bed showing my lack of interest in what he had to say. Ryder didn't push it anymore he walked out of the room, but almost immediately he walked back into the room and sent everyone away until it was just both of us left in the room. “Did you not hear what I said?” I asked him angrily, even though I was pleased he didn't leave the room like I told him to. “I need you to hear him out, I didn't want t
Deandra pov“Are you not happy to see me?” Hope asked. I folded my hand around my chest angrily when I heard the question she asked me. I wonder what she’s doing here. She lowered her eyes and paused when she stared at my belly. “Looks like the baby is kicking well.” She said to me and chuckled. I know she’s not genuinely happy for me so why is she pretending to care?“That doesn’t answer my question. Hope, what are you doing here?” I asked her angrily. The fake smile on her face slowly faded and her true personality was finally out. “I came here to show you my face, I need you to remember how you ruined my life.” I couldn’t believe my ears. What does she mean by that? If we want to talk about a ruined life wouldn’t that be mine?“You know very well that you are not welcome here, your husband and his mother were exiled so what are you doing here?” Ryder asked angrily. He was even more upset because she was acting like it is her right to be here in the first place. I didn’t want Ryd
