Chapter 6

Deandra pov

The 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 something I will regret.

“I want him to pay dearly.” I clenched my teeth with my hands on my belly, each day I remember how I lost my child makes me hate them even more. After so many years of trying I finally got pregnant only to lose it like that.

“Listen to me Andra, look at me. You need to be calm, if you go about it the wrong way, you might end up regretting your actions.” Ryder advised me again. I was wondering why he took the whole thing seriously and why he really cares about how things play out between me and Alpha Daniel.

“Why are you doing this?” I asked. Ryder's facial expression changed the moment he heard the question I asked him.

“Why are you asking me such a question?” I could tell he was not comfortable with the question I asked him.

“Why are you asking me that all of a sudden?” He asked. Ryder was suddenly acting suspicious, with the way he refused to answer my question I couldn't help but suspect his kind gestures towards me.

“You helped me twice now which makes me curious about you, and you always arrive at the right time.” I explained to him.

“I think you're a good person and you don't deserve to be treated the way they were treating you that's why I'm on your side, I have no other reason.” There was so much sincerity in the way he spoke to me, that made me believe him.

It felt good to have someone on my side who genuinely cared about me. Hearing him say those good words made me feel better.

“I'm sorry the question made you feel a kind of way, I was only curious because of how you've been nice to me,” I explained to him so that he won't feel bad about the question I asked him.

“I can't keep calm anymore, I want all of them to go through worse pain than I went through.” I added.

It was getting dark already and I was yet to have dinner because I didn't have the appetite to eat anything.

While I was in my room struggling to sleep I heard a knock on the door. I know it's Sarah, she's here to call me for dinner.

“Go away.” I said to her tiredly. I know that going downstairs would mean I have to eat dinner but I was really not Interested in eating anything.

I reluctantly stood up from the bed and walked out of the room. While walking downstairs I sighted Ryder sitting in the dining area.

I got to the dining area and sat down quietly. I was not in the mood to eat anything but no matter what I said, Ryder would not understand me.

“What took you so long?” Ryder asked the moment I sat down.

“Nothing, I was trying to process if I should be here or not.” Ryder stared at me when he heard what I said to him. He could already tell there was something bothering me.

“Hey, I know it's not easy for you, but remember you have something you're pursuing. This is the time you need to be strong.” Ryder encouraged me. I felt better after hearing him talk to me.

Remembering what I will achieve very soon boosted my energy.

“Maybe that's what I really needed to hear,” I said to him and let out a soft smile before digging into my food. While I was eating the only thing that clouded my mind was how I would become victorious in the fight I'm about to start.

The only thing that bothered me is the way I have to remain calm like Ryder had been saying.

Ryder couldn't hide the smile as he watched me eat my food.

“I have decided that I'm going to leave your house.” Ryder was shocked to hear what I said.

“Why? I mean you're comfortable here so why do you want to leave?” He asks me curiously.

“Ryder this is my fight and I want to achieve everything on my own.” I explained to him. Ryder was not okay with my decision to leave but my mind is already made up and I cannot change my mind.

When we were done eating I stood up and headed back to my room, the moment I got to the room reality hit me again with the fact that my life turned upside down in one day, I lost everything that I had, my love, my baby and almost my life all because of Alpha Daniel.

I stood up and walked towards the window while thinking about the whole thing. I heard my phone ring so I walked back to the bed and picked up the phone. I was wondering who the caller was because I couldn't recognize the number that was calling.

“Andra.” The caller mentioned my name, my heart skipped a beat as I recognized the caller's voice. I cannot believe he has the guts to call me.

I had to pretend like I didn't recognize the voice just in case it's not who I think it is, I dropped the phone back on the bed and rushed out of the room angrily.

“Andra, why are you running like that? Are you okay?” Ryder asked and grabbed my hands.
