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
Deandra’s POV“Congratulations, Luna, you’re pregnant,”I blinked a few times after that announcement and took a few deep breaths but nothing could quell the rush of emotions inside of me at that statement.Who would believe it?I had been feeling pretty sick for weeks now and if Daniel hadn’t pushed me to do this, I probably wouldn’t be here right now, receiving the best news in my life. For three years since I had been married to Daniel, Alpha of the Dagger pack, he and I haven’t had a child in all those years.It wasn’t as if we never tried, it was just that we never could have them. Daniel always joked that maybe it wasn’t our time but secretly I could see that he wanted a child just as much as I wanted one.“Luna, is everything alright?” The head doctor at the pack clinic asked to pull me out from my reverie and I shook my head in the negative.“I’m fine,” I assured her. I was more than fine, I was happy. This news meant so many things and the point at the top of the list was tha
Deandra’s POVI was so sure that I was dreaming because there was no way that these images on my phone were real. There was no way Daniel would betray me like that, or at least that was what I told myself as I scrolled through the five pictures I had received from the unknown number.In all five pictures, Daniel was there with his childhood friend, Hope, which was nothing out of the ordinary since they were usually inseparable. Rather, it was what they were doing that was completely shocking and took my breath away. In the first picture, Daniel was caressing Hope’s protruding belly and they both had wide grins on their faces.Again, this picture would have been completely normal if Hope wasn’t wearing a sash that read “Mom to be” around her body. Daniel had a matching sash around him too but his read“Dad to be”.The second picture was even more heartbreaking and showed more evidence of what was happening in the first picture. The two of them were holding an ultrasound picture with bi
Deandra’s POVDaniel was waiting for me when I got back.“Where were you?” he fired as soon as I walked into the room but I ignored him, my mind swirling with thoughts of that mystery man and just how much he knew about my life with Daniel.“I’m talking to you,” Daniel yelled and I scoffed, rising to my feet to acknowledge him.“You shouldn’t take that tone of voice with me, especially since you’re at fault.”At my words, he frowned but I wasn’t going to give him time to construct words that would soothe my mood like he always did. I pulled the pictures out from my phone, thanking the stars I had bothered to save them.“How could you do this to us?” I screamed, throwing the phone against his chest.He caught it and stared at the screen; surprise evident on his face.“How did you….? How long have you known?”I scoffed and shook my head. How was that the most important question right now? “is that all you’re going to say about that?” I asked him, the disgust I was feeling evident in my
Deandra’s POV“I told you not to come here, we can’t be seen like this.” I stopped in my tracks and hid behind a wall wondering who Hope was talking to. “Hope, that’s my child in there and you know it.” I gasped a bit too loudly and caught myself just in time before I was discovered. “Keep quiet,” Hope hissed and looked from left to right.This shameless woman, I thought as I listened to their conversation. I should have known the baby wasn’t Daniel’s but he had been so confident that the child was his that I never suspected anything. “If anyone hears you, our plan will be ruined.” She looked around again before she leaned in and whispered, “I want what’s best for this child and so do you so why don’t you just take the money and leave?” I shook my head in disgust at that and left my position behind the wall ready to go and confront her when I heard footsteps coming from the opposite direction. I could practically hear Hope’s heart racing loudly in her chest “Andra, what are you
Deandra's POVEvery fiber of my being was at alert as I stared at Hope.Something felt off.I was confused by the new turn of events but I didn't want to read too much into it either."What's in it?" I asked, feigning interest and she smiled.“It's something I took before I got pregnant. I hear it's very good for pregnancy.""Oh you should have that instead. Lord knows you need it." Yolanda added eagerly, an insult buried somewhere in her words and I sighed looking to Daniel for help."Just take it. You never know what might be useful." He said his tone innocent and I almost cried. He wasn't aware of what these people around him were capable of."Go on," Hope urged and my suspicion grew.Why was she so eager for me to drink it?"Look, I didn't put anything in it." She defended as she reached for another glass I hadn't noticed before. "I made a cup for myself just in case you had doubts."Daniel frowned and I sighed. She was trying to create a rift between Daniel and I again and this t
Deandra povThe human world was very different from what I thought it would be like, they were very accommodating and I almost forgot about my species. “Andra, why are you seated here?” Ryder asked me when he got back from a business meeting.“I had a lot on my mind so I came here to cool it off.” I replied to him as we both went into the house. It's been a very emotional period for me, thinking about the things that happened in the pack and how my once-happy family turned sour. “Are you still thinking about him?” Ryder asked as we both sat on the couch. “It's hard not to.” I replied almost immediately. The only thing that I could think of is how to get back at him for what he put me through. I want him to go through pains just like I did and as for Hope, I'll make sure she goes through hell.“It's fine, I know it's hard for you to move on after all that has happened, I just need you to be calm.” Ryder advised me. Ryder had been the one calming me down so that I don't end up doing
Deandra povIt’s been months now since I moved out of Ryder’s mansion. It hasn’t been easy struggling all by myself but I have to do it because I want to do everything myself and not depend on anyone.“I need to work this time.” I muttered to myself as I was all dressed up for another job hunting. I walked out of the room and headed to the kitchen where I made a quick breakfast so I could eat before leaving the house.It was just me in the house, I couldn't believe I had to do everything on my own. I placed my hand on my belly because if my baby was still there I would have been expecting him/her to be my next best friend.Sadly the monster made me lose my baby. I decided not to ruin my mood by thinking about Daniel and my baby because remembering everything always ruins my mood and I don’t want it to ruin my mood this morning.I was done with my breakfast so I rushed out of the house and entered a bus. While on the bus I sat down and placed my head on the window hoping for good luck

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
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
Writer’s povEveryone was dating in the sitting room including Clarissa when Sophie left, they were unable to say anything for a while as they were seated in the sitting room, it was a very sad day for all of them. Andra finally understood Sophie and they couldn’t blame her for the cause of what happened.She was only trying her best to give her daughter a good life and only ended up not being there for her.With everything that has happened Clarissa realized that at the end of the day or she has been working hard for Nothing.Andra and Ryder are her new family as Sophie might never want to see her again.She quietly stood up from where she was sitting abd headed to her room, she was wondering what her daughter would be doing right now, is she still crying? If she finds the place comfortable, at least she gets the people she can relate with, it’s just five years and she will be out.Those five years felt like eternity for Clarissa because she thinks five years is too much for her ahd
Writer’s povAndra and others were in shock, they could finally see the side of her that her mother was most afraid of, they were wondering why she was losing control all of a sudden, did she find out something that her mother was hiding from her?“Hear me out Sophie,” Clarissa said to Sophie who was already drying, she was feeling betrayed which is why she suddenly lost control.“What do you have to say mom? Can you see that you betrayed me? You made it seem like you were on my side but all the while you have sides with them,” Sophie said angrily and screamed with her hands covering her ears. She said as lusting control completely.“Can’t you see what you’re doing, that’s what I’m talking about, you are losing control competently. You cannot live with us.” Clarissa summoned the courage to tell her the truth.“What?” Sophie asked Clarissa, finding it unbelievable that her mother wanted to let her go just like that without looking back, because her tone and the way she just talked made
Deandra povAfter hearing what Ryder said I realized that I would need to be extremely careful and watch the kids closely so that I don’t end up regretting, they mean the world to me and I’m going to Protect them even though it costs my life.I was mad at Ryder for not being entirely transparent with me, but maybe he was right for not telling me about it because since he told me I have been very confused with a lot to think about I’m sure he was preventing all this which is why he was conflicted about telling me in the first place.The Rogues have to change their minds. It's going to be bad for all of us in the pack, they kill werewolves heartlessly because of the feud between both, but our pack and the Rogues have a good relationship that started in the ancient times and the promise wax kept till now.Maybe there is someone fingering it because he doesn’t like Ryder and wants to Ruin his reputation.I was happy when I heard Ryder had the same conclusion I had while I was calculatin
Writer’s pov“What makes you think such a thing would happen?” Ryder asked curiously. Adrien heaved a sigh When he heard the question Ryder asked him.“Last night we found one of them.” Ryder realized it was not a joke and they were already operating, because if he was here last night it means they have started attacking and looking for the right time to throw the heavy attack.“We need to stop them now before they catch us unaware, I need to make sure that they don’t tell this anymore.” Ryder said to Adrien but at the same time they knew that had to happen carefully so that they don’t trigger them as well.If they take the first step of killing that’ll get them looking for trouble and those Rogues would think they’re doing it because they hate them and that way they might go into war which has never happened, the lack has always been peaceful with Rogues, they don’t kill each other.“This might be a trap for us to make the first move.” Adrien said to Ryder and Ryder agreed too. He k
Writers povDaniel was waiting outside, others had gone to bed but he couldn't sleep, he was thinking that if anything happens to those he sent to the pack it’ll either be in his favor or against him so he had to think very well before making a decision. He thought he would need a smart move because that’s the only way he would be able to overcome the whole misunderstanding and have the people to be on his side, while he was standing he sighted his mother approaching him. “Why’s she coming here now?” Daniel asked angrily, he was not pleased to see her approaching him because he knew that they always end up having a misunderstanding, they never get along when they have a conversation. “What are you doing here all by yourself?” Yolanda asked curiously when she saw him standing outside all by himself in deep thought, she didn’t want him to know she was worried about him so she just randomly brought up a topic so she could see how he handles it that way she would know if he’s okay or
Daniel povAfter hearing about the arrival of their kids together I have been very restless and angry, I can’t believe they did so much together, so much that I’m hating myself for right now.“Triplets?” I laughed because I found the whole thing funny. He could have told us that we are not allowed into his pack because he wanted to lay claim on the person he loves. Hearing the news that they now have three kids together was very bad news to me. I could barely close my eyes and sleep because I had a lot on my mind. I kept thinking about what I could have done right that would have made her return to me without having to beg her too much. The whole thing was just there in my mind, I couldn’t leave the house or do anything because of how tired I was after seeing the wedding ceremony of one of the people in my new pack. The moment she appeared it seemed like she was the one I saw getting married to someone else, but after seeing the face getting married well I realized they were not the
