Writer’s POV“What is going on here?” Ryder asked, standing there In Shock, it felt like his world was crumbling right in front of him as he looked at the bed and there was no one there. The three kids were taken away. “Where are my babies?” Andra kept asking as she was looking around the room. Emma walked in looking shocked as well because she was with them a few minutes ago and all of a sudden there’s no baby there again. “Do you think they were kidnapped again?” Aliya suddenly asked, Clarissa was scared when she heard the topic about the kids getting kidnapped, she was wondering who would be behind it, if it was her daughter she would have received a phone call about being missing. “There’s no way she’s the one.” Clarissa muttered to herself as she bit her lips with her hand on her chest, she was completely nervous and it was written all over her face that she was not comfortable with the kidnap topic going on. “Were you not hired to watch over the kids? Why don’t you know what
Deandra povIt’s been five days already and there’s no news of my missing kids. I feel like I’m going crazy because of what’s going on.“Please try and eat something.” Aliya tried convincing me to eat because I have been starving for some days. I can’t believe they are concerned about food when my kids are still nowhere to be found. “Do you expect me to eat that? You know very well that there’s no way I’m going to eat that food when my kids are not here. What if something has happened to them? What if I never see them again?” I asked Aliya angrily. At this point I didn’t care to know if I was hurting anyone’s feelings because I just want to be left alone and not be disturbed about stuff like that. “Andra stop being negative about the situation, I know that nothing will happen to the kids and I’m sure the kidnappers are going to talk about ransom soon.” I turned to look at her the moment I heard what she said. I know she was only trying to make me feel better but that’s not what I wa
Ryder’s povI couldn’t believe what I just heard the kidnapper say to me. What does he mean by what he just said? There’s no way he wants me to believe he wants my head as ransom to get the kids back. “Is that supposed to be a joke? I didn’t find it funny at all.” I said to the kidnapper angrily.“Oh Well,” He replied sarcastically, I felt very disgusted and upset at the same time, I can’t believe I was about to take his words seriously. “We are talking about my kids' life here and you still have the time to be joking?” I asked him angrily. Andra held my hands trying to calm me down so that I don’t say anything that’ll upset the kidnappers. “Are you now scolding me?” The kidnapper asked and laughed like a menace. I can’t believe my kids are with such a person, how sure am I that their safety is guaranteed there. I have to do something fast to get them back. “Just tell me what you want, I’m ready to give it to you as long as you let my kids go.” I said to the kidnapper, trying my b
Writer’s povWith the pack in turmoil because of the sudden disappearance of the triplets Daniel has been able to get back on his feet with the pack that he made, everything was in place and he had guards everywhere, they are people willing to put their lives on the line to make sure he is protected. Seeing everything in place made Daniel so sure that he’s now ready to face his half brother and he’s sure to win, but before doing that he wishes to make him suffer more than what he’s going through now. What bothered Daniel a little is what Andra would be going through, he knew that the disappearance of the kids would not only hurt Ryder but also Andra, so he thought of going there to see them with the thought of seeing Andra and know if she’s doing good. He knew that he wouldn’t be chased out because he’s now an Alpha with so many subjects that trust and support him very well. “Daniel don’t you even think of doing it.” Yolanda said to him totally against his decision of going to the
Deandra povAfter the call from the kidnappers nothing has been done, the phone was not track-able and we were waiting for them to call again. Maybe we would be able to get something from them when they call again. “How’s it going?” I asked Ryder when I met him lost in thought sitting on the couch, he held his phone with him waiting for the call, with the way he was waiting I could tell they were yet to call back. It’s been almost two weeks already without my kids with me, I feel like I’m losing my mind, what are they eating? Do they take their bath? Do they sleep comfortably? I had so many questions I wanted to ask the kidnappers but there was no way to ask the questions. “Still no call.” Ryder said to me and heaved a sigh. He has been completely distracted from work and always at home now since the kids got missing. I nodded my head when I heard what he said because it was quite obvious. While we were both seated I sighted Emma heading upstairs, I know she must be really sad th
Writer’s povEmma rushed into the room after eavesdropping on Ryder and Andra’s conversation. She was panting really hard while pacing around the room. She picked up her phone from the bed and placed a call across to someone several times, but the person was not picking up. She flinged the phone on the bed and held her hair angrily. “Arggggh!” She screamed at the top of her voice and threw everything on the table away. She couldn’t hold it in anymore. While she was still in her horrible mood her phone suddenly rang. She picked the call almost immediately. “Why were you not picking up?” She asked angrily. “Why were you calling numerous times?” The caller asked angrily. Emma sat on the bed trying to be calm before saying anything. “What’s your plan? You told me this is all I have to do for you to forgive me, so why am I still here? Why have you not come to take me away from here?” Emma asked the caller angrily. She was patiently waiting to hear what the caller would say. “If you r
Deandra’s pov“You’ve done enough for me and I don’t think I’m worthy to be called your mother.” Emma said to me. I stared at her face blankly, I couldn’t tell exactly what’s on her mind, she’s so unreadable right now. “What are you saying? It’s fine if that’s too much of a burden, but don’t even say you’re not worthy of it.” I said to her and placed my hand on hers, she stared at me for a while without saying anything. I didn’t know what else to tell her because she obviously wasn’t looking convinced by my words so I had no other choice but to keep quiet and just let her be. She might have other things troubling her which she can’t talk about and with the way I was behaving it seemed like I was poking too much into her business. “I know you genuinely care about me, that’s the problem, I always feel like I don’t deserve the love you always show to me.” Listening to Emma say such a thing made it clear that she was rejecting my idea of her seeing me like a daughter. She clearly doesn
Deandra’s pov I rushed to the room with my hands covering my mouth as I was pacing around the room worriedly. It would have felt better if they were taken by someone that needs money from us, but now that it has been confirmed that an enemy took them I can’t stay still. While I was pacing around Ryder walked into the room. “Do you think he’s only trying to pretend like he has them with him? You know maybe, he’s trying to get a hold on us so the only way to do that is by pretending he had our kids with him, I know he’s not the one with the kids, he cannot fool me.” I said to Ryder and started pacing around again. Ryder stared at my face for a while, which was a little uncomfortable. I was wondering why he was staring at me like that, he’s supposed to be in agreement with what I said so why is he not saying anything. “Andra, we both know that’s what you want to believe, and that’s because you know that the kids are really with him.” Hearing Ryder said this brought tears to
Writer’s povIt’s been two weeks already and there was nothing from Ryder yet. He was yet to regain consciousness and his situation was getting scarier as the doctors were not hopeful about his situation. Instead they kept talking about hoping for a miracle because he had little or no chance of survival. “Our kids are growing faster than I imagined.” Andra said to the unconscious body laying on the bed. She would always come to update him on everything going on in the pack and how things are running smoothly with the help of Daniel and Hope who has stayed by her side all these while. “You know you’re beginning to scare me, it’s been weeks already, you need to wake up already.” Andra said and started crying uncontrollably. She was trying her best to hold in the tears but she just couldn’t. She couldn’t keep pretending to be fine and she hasn’t been able to eat well since he became unconscious. “You need to see your kids, you need to be with me and make up for lost times. Don’t make
Writer’s povThat day that the war happened and the kids were brought back it was later realized that Leo was the one holding the kids and the only reason why he came back into her life was because he needed to monitor their search, and Aliya told him everything not knowing that he was the one doing everything. She felt like she betrayed Andra and her brother was in the mix and Andra warned her not to accept her brother back, she just couldn’t believe that she didn’t worsen the whole thing which is why she chose to stay far from Andra and since then she never called or texted. “I caused it.” Hope said a little above a whisper. Andra walked closer to her the moment she heard what Hope said. “No, don’t say that Hope, at that time you didn’t think what you were doing was wrong and don’t forget you tried apologizing to her but she still chose to leave for her own peace, I know that with time she would come around and find a place in her heart to forget about the past and move on.” And
Writer’s pov“Daniel, you would go back there and tell them that you are not making any peace. Have you forgotten what his mother made us go through? Have you forgotten how your father favored him more than you? This is the time for you to get back everything and make him pay for your sufferings. “Mom, stop! Can’t you see that I’m at peace now. The people are happy, we don’t need war to be at peace with ourselves. Can’t you see that I’m happy now?” Daniel asked his mother who was being insensitive about the whole thing. “What are you saying Daniel? Can’t you see he is successfully using your head? He wants you to give up everything your father worked hard to keep for you.” When Yolanda said this Daniel turned to look at her “I told you, that day your dad said you have to promise him that you will take good care of the pack and keep his legacy?” Yolanda smiled, she just wanted to get to his head and make him stop thinking of giving up his desire of becoming the Alpha of the dagger
Deandra povIt felt like my heart was burning as I was crying upstairs. I didn’t know how to feel after what I heard Yvonne say, it was just a roller coaster of emotion piling up everything that has happened over the month. I really wanted to disappear and go far away. After crying for a while in the room I was feeling better. I felt better that I had let out everything that was bothering me, I was relieved to see that my heart was getting lighter. I stood up from the place I was sitting and headed to the kids' wardrobe. Their clothes are still smelling new. They never got the chance to wear them. It’s been months now and I don’t know anything about my kids, I don’t know if they are okay or not, instead I went to live with the people that took my kids away. When I was feeling better Ryder walked into the room. I removed my face from where he was and folded my hands around my chest angrily. I was pissed with him, I still can’t forgive him for all the horrible things that they’ve sa
Writer’s povWhile Andra was still looking at the picture a call came in. She saw how it was saved so she didn’t hesitate to pick it. “Don’t you dare prank me about falling ill, you have done it before.” Hope said to Andra while she was with Emma’s phone. Andra couldn’t believe Hope was talking to her mother like that. She was relieved to know that Emma was not lying when she said her daughter doesn’t want her in her life. “You know what? I thought you were going to change. I was ready to give you a second chance after you successfully helped me take the kids but right now I don’t think I can forgive you because you keep using your fake illness to bring me closer.” Hope scolded on the phone. Andra closed her eyes upon hearing the cold and heartless things Hope was saying over the phone; she couldn’t believe Hope could be this cold to her mother as well. She didn’t want to say anything at first but Hope kept saying she was lying when she is really struggling with her health. “She
Deandra povI was wondering what it could be. I was too curious that I couldn’t stay in the house for another minute, from the way he sounded like it was a very serious issue so I was desperately invested in it, I needed to know what it’s all about and why I needed to go myself. If it wasn’t as important as he made it seem he would definitely lose his job. While I was heading out of the house I suddenly realized that I might not be able to leave the house without Emma asking where I’m headed and when she asks what do I tell her, I paused, rushing and started thinking of what to tell her when I am leaving. After thinking for a while I decided to just think of anything that pops up in my head at that moment and tell her. “Are you going somewhere?” Emma asked when she saw me downstairs. I stopped on my tracks the moment I heard what she asked me. “I just need to hurry down to get something.” I said to Emma trying my best to not let her suspect me in any way. “Okay, lunch will be mad
Writer’s povAfter having breakfast with Emma. Andra decided to go back to her room just maybe there will be a text message from him. She decided to turn on her phone and shockingly her phone was switched off. She was wondering why it switched off when it was on a few minutes ago. She stood up and took it to the socket where she started charging it again. While charging it she walked into the toilet ahd washed her face. While washing her face she paused for a moment and stared at her face in the mirror, she was wondering when it’ll all stop. Just when she thought her life would get better with Ryder and her babies and all of a sudden it only got worse and not only her relationship with him but her relationship with everyone in the house. She realized she might not be destined for such happiness so it’ll be better to stop dreaming about it and focus on what matters, which is finding her kids then she’ll know what’s next. She stepped out of the toilet and headed back to the room wher
Writer’s povAliya stood in the same spot after the call, she was trying to understand the situation and what he was trying to say when he told her that she has never changed from the little witch she used to be. He clearly called get the same bake that’s what broke her heart even more. She was not upset because he yelled at her or got angry because she couldn’t give him money. She was upset because he called her the said horrible name that ruined her childhood. Aliya didn’t know what to think about anymore as she stood on the same spot with her phone in her hand as she was trying to recollect everything he said to her. He sounded really upset, she could tell he was upset with the way he was talking. Did he really come back to her life to torment her or is this just a mistake from him. Maybe he was too upset which made him say something so horrible to her. Aliya couldn’t think straight as she was trying to find out why he did that, why he sounded so rude to her over the phone. She d
Writer’s pov“Andra is gone!” Ryder yelled angrily when Aliya couldn’t get what he was saying. Aliya opened her eyes wider than normal when she heard what he said. She couldn’t believe her ears. Where could she have gone to? Clarissa, who was sulking in her room as she was missing her daughter, stepped out of the room to get herself a bottle of water. The moment she stepped out of the room she sighted Aliya and Ryder looking troubled. The first thing that crossed her mind is Andra. She was hoping nothing is wrong with Andra because it’s only Andra that can make Ryder look so worried. Ryder and Aliya headed downstairs where Clarissa was gulping her water, she knew there was something wrong but she thought of minding her business but at the same time minding her business might make it look like she didn’t care. “What is going on?” Clarissa asked after contemplating for a while. Ryder turned to look at her, she could tell from the look on his face that there was something wrong. Witho
