Writer’s povWhen she was done looking at her face through the mirror she finally summoned the courage to step out of the room. She needed to hear some things from her brother, she needed to know the truth, why he left her and why he didn’t say anything to her before leaving the house that night. She’s been in the dark for years waiting to get all the answers she needs from Leo and now that she has the opportunity to get the answer from him she can’t miss it. When Aliya got to the sitting room she met Andra walking down the stairs. Aliya rolled her eyes the moment she sighted Andra because she knew that they would have to talk about her brother again.“Are you sure about this?” Andra asked Aliya the moment she got closer to her. Aliya brushed her hair backwards with her hand and turned to look at Andra. It felt really hard for her to be cold to Andra but based on the plan that she had with Ryder she has to do the right thing. “Sure about what exactly?” Aliya asked. “Why are you b
Deandra’s povWhen Aliya was out of the house I couldn’t help but worry, I kept checking the time but there was no sign of Aliya yet. “Are you okay?” Clarissa asked the moment she got downstairs. She could tell from the look on my face that there was something bothering me.“I really don’t know anymore.” I said to her and placed my hand on my head before sitting on the couch. Clarissa also sat down and looked at my face. “Is this about Aliya?” Clarissa asked and without wasting time I nodded my head. “I really don’t know what happened, but she sounded really upset when we were talking, it felt like I don’t know her anymore.” I explained to Clarissa hoping to get an advice from her on how to handle the present situation. “Are you sure you haven’t done anything to upset her?” Clarissa asked. “None that I know of.” I replied to her almost immediately, I was completely confused and blank headed the more I tried to think about What happened. “Maybe you aren’t aware but she is, so I t
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 povSeeing their reaction towards Emma made me feel bad for her, I wish I could say something to them but I had to control myself from talking or saying anything that'll make them even more pissed because from the look of things they really dislike Emma. We quietly ate without saying anything to each other. I kept stealing glances at her and I could tell she was not okay, she seemed fine but didn't look at it. Her lips were too pale. “Are you sure you don't need to see a doctor?” I asked her feeling a little worried about her. I really didn't feel good seeing her like that. She seemed really uncomfortable with the way I kept asking if she was okay. “I'm fine Luna Andra.” She replied to me sounding pissed. I could immediately tell from her tone that she was upset already. I didn't say anything to her again after seeing the way she reacted to the question I asked her. She seemed to have a lot on her mind, and it was obvious from the way she was quiet. When we were done eat
Deandra's povAfter walking out on Ryder I paused walking the moment I was out of the room then I covered my mouth with my hand struggling not to cry because the whole thing was messing with me mentally. I now have issues with Ryder almost all the time. We barely have a normal couples conversation that goes well, we always end with a misunderstanding which is beginning to irritate me. I brushed my hair backwards with my hand as I folded my hands angrily. I just want everything to end and go back to normal. I headed downstairs gently and the moment I got downstairs met Aliya looking like she was in deep thought and she stood in front of the door. I could tell there was something wrong with her from the way she was standing. “Aliya.” I tried calling her but she didn't respond to me. I called her several times and decided to go closer to her then I tapped her on her shoulder, it was then she turned to look at me. “What is wrong with you Aliya?” I asked curiously, because it was obviou
Writer’s povWhile Emma was still trying to put the room in order Andra walked in. Emma was shocked she entered the room without waiting for permission. Their eyes met and they stared at each other for a while without knowing what to say. “Sorry, I..I was worried because you weren’t saying anything.” Andra said and scratched the back of her neck confused. She realized she acted on her impulse, she should have waited for Emma to give her the permission to go in first. “Ohh, you were worried about me?” Emma asked and let out a soft smile, while smiling she slowly realized the reason why she’s in the house and why she shouldn’t be too excited. Her smile slowly faded as she picked the last thing on the floor and stood up. Instead of talking more Andra walked inside and sat on the bed worried. “Why are you here? You look worried.” Andra turned to look at Emma when she heard what Emma said to her. “It’s about what you said to me earlier, you talked about having proof right?” Emma was e
Writer's povAliya and Ryder came to a conclusion of finding out what Emma's mission is and the reason why she has been hanging around Andra. They couldn't help but think there's a motive behind everything she has been doing. While they were having the conversation by the pool side Emma sighted them and headed to where Andra was. The new mission she was sent on is something completely unexpected and once she succeeds with this she will finally reunite with her daughter.“I have to succeed this time.” She muttered to herself. “Emma.” Andra called her when she was lost in thought, she snapped out of her thought immediately and let out a fake smile. “I was a little lost back there after what I saw few minutes ago.” Emma stared at Andra’s face afreement telling her something that'll bother her, she was hoping Andra would be interested in knowing what she saw back there. “What did you see that made you look so puzzled?” Emma was happy to hear that Andra cared to ask about it. “Nothin
Ryder’s povThere was so much going on at the same time. There’s Andra being extremely aggressive towards the situation of our kids being missing and her sudden possessiveness towards Emma which I cannot understand even though I want to.“Andra you’re taking this thing too seriously, I didn’t say anything about your family or how you had to lose some family members.” I said to her calmly trying to calm her down with my tone, just maybe she would stop yelling.“You know what I’m talking about stop trying to act like the good guy here, can’t you see you’re suspecting an innocent lady?”I was trying to keep my calm even though I had a lot of questions to ask her. “What makes her innocent? How are you sure she’s innocent like you claim?” I wanted to ask her questions like that but judging from the way we’re going back and forth with this topic already I just want it to end and let her give up on being so annoying.“It’s fine, if you think she’s innocent then that’s on you.” I said to her
Deandra pov After the news it felt like my airflow was restricted. I couldn’t breathe properly, at this point I wanted to scream for help. “What could have gone wrong?” I kept asking myself as we headed out of the house to go check the baby that was found dead. So many thoughts clouded my mind. “It’s not ours right?” I asked Ryder who seemed lost in thought. He turned to look at me and nodded his head. He was obviously hoping the baby wasn't ours, I could tell from the look on his face. My finger was in my mouth, I couldn’t stop biting it nervously hoping we would get to our destination sooner. After a long ride we finally arrived at the hospital where the baby was rushed to. I couldn’t step out of the car, I wanted to go in but I just couldn’t. Ryder was on his way in when he noticed I wasn’t going with him. He walked back to the car and held my hands. My legs were shaking. I haven’t spent time with any of them yet, they are still so young that I just can’t let go of any
Writer’s pov Good day mom.” Daniel greeted Yolanda with a bright smile on his face as they sat on the little dining table they were able to make. “The new dinning will be here today.” Daniel announced to his mother when she found a place where the dining room they were using was broken. “That’s good news.” She said and picked her cutlery so she could dig in. While they were eating no one said anything. Yolanda had a lot to say but she was prevented from saying anything because she didn't want it to ruin her mood this morning. “Do you really not care to know how my visit went?” Daniel asked his mother and she angrily slammed her fork on the dinning table, causing it to have a longer mark. Daniel stared at his mother’s face, he knew she was angry because it was very obvious. But he still needed to hear her honest opinion rather than having her not say anything. “What do you want to hear?” She asked angrily with her teeth clenched. Daniel rubbed his head slowly because his m
