Writer’s povAndra was on his chest while his fingers played with her back. They had a night filled with love after a little misunderstanding earlier. “What should be our next step?” Andra asked, referring to their revenge plan. Ryder was quiet as he thought of what could actually be the next step. “It's time we take a bold step, I need evidence to prove that I am the rightful heir to everything our father owned.” Ryder said to Andra and she agreed with him. There was sudden silence in the room as they were both in deep thought. ********“Good morning.” Hope greeted Alpha Daniel and without replying to her he walked away. Hope was getting sick of it already, since Andra’s visit he has stopped talking to her or replying to her greetings.“Do you really have to go far?” Hope asked as they were both walking down the stairs. Alpha Daniel didn't reply to her, he kept giving her the silent treatment. When they got to the sitting room, Hope was shocked to see some new stuff in the sitt
Deandra povIt's been ten days already since my last visit to the pack house and Ryder is yet to come up with something, I might have to make the move again this time. I picked the glass of wine on the table and took a sip. While sitting and thinking really hard I picked my phone and just then a call came in from Ryder. “What is it this time?” I asked myself while looking at the phone ringing. I finally picked the call.“Andra, it worked.” I sat up properly when I heard what Ryder said on the phone. “What are you talking about?” I asked curiously. “I finally found the evidence I have been looking for, a proof that shows that I am the first son and the rightful heir to everything that my father owned.” I covered my mouth with my hand the moment I heard what he said to me. I can't believe everything is going well now. I was almost tearing up.“How did you find it? I mean what do we do from here?” I got so excited that I didn't know the right question to ask. “We have to move into
Deandra pov I was waiting patiently to hear what he would say to me. “Oh, he wouldn’t be able to tell me if I’m terminally ill.” I muttered to myself and closed my eyes. I didn’t know why my thoughts were so negative. Ryder was done talking to the doctor so he walked into my ward looking a little down, I could tell he was not happy to hear what the doctor said to him. “The doctor…” “Don't tell me, I don't want to hear it.” I said to him immediately trying to stop him from telling me the bad news because I wasn't ready to hear it. “I have to tell you so that we will know what to do about it.” He said he was trying to convince me to listen but my mind was already made up, I wasn't ready to hear what he had to say. “I really don't want to hear it right now, the thought of dying is really scary.” I said to Ryder, almost tearing up already. Ryder looked shocked to hear me say such a thing to him. “Who said you were dying? Oh my goodness, can you not carry a child withou
Deandra povFew days later. Ryder, Aliya and I moved into the pack house. Aliya was the most excited one, I couldn’t kill her joy with the horrible stories because she has no experience of what they can be like, so I just let her enjoy the moment. “Oh my goodness, I can’t believe we would be living here.” Aliya said to me while looking around the house. “You said the same thing when we first returned.” I reminded her. Aliya chuckled when she heard what I said, but I know she could tell I was being too serious with the whole thing compared to how she’s taking it. “I mean it this time.” Aliya added with a smile on her face. Our luggage was still in the sitting room as we were waiting for the rest of the family to return home. Minutes later Alpha Daniel, Yolanda and Hope returned home.Yolanda looked shocked to see Ryder. That was when I remembered Ryder told me how she hated him so much. I turned to look at Ryder, I could tell he was only trying to mask his pain with confidence bec
Deandra’s povThe dinning was very tense, I could sense Daniel was still fuming after hearing what Ryder said to him. No one said anything while we were eating. I kept stealing glances at Hope to see her facial expression, and shockingly she didn't look bothered.“What did you promise Adrien?” Daniel asked all of a sudden and everyone's ear opened like they were waiting for Daniel to ask the question.Ryder turned to look at me, I knew a day would come when this topic would come up, I was wondering why he has asked any question all these while.“Why would you ask such a question?” Ryder asked Daniel. Daniel was quiet for a minute when he heard Ryder’s response to his question.“You know I have been wondering why he has always been too hard headed towards me, that day just confirmed my doubts, now I know that he was working for you.” Daniel said. He was really trying to bring up Aiden’s name during dinner.“Can you stop talking about Aiden, I have nothing to say to you, if you have any
Alpha Daniel’s povThe news of her pregnancy was so shocking that I couldn’t sleep all night. I kept thinking of how they met and when they got so close that she’s expecting a baby already. It seemed really hard to believe, I didn’t want to believe it but on the other hand she had no reason to lie about it. “Looks like you’re still worried about the love of your life expecting another man’s child.” Hope said to me. How is she still awake by this time?“Can you please mind your business and stop trying to piss me off every time.” I said to her angrily and rested my head properly. I could tell she was very happy about the news of Andra’s pregnancy.“Remember you ruined what you two had before, stop trying to get what you can’t have.” She said to me and finally went to bed. I angrily looked at her and stopped myself from saying anything to her because it won’t change anything if I begin to exchange words with her. I decided to go to bed and think of what to do during the day because th
Writer’s povWhen Ryder was done collecting the keys from Daniel he rushed to the room where Aliya and Andra were waiting for him. “My goodness, I was so scared.” Andra said to him the moment he walked into the room. She was so scared that he would not be able to get the Keys because Daniel can be so petty sometimes and start asking too many questions then end up not giving it to him. “Did he find you suspicious?” Andra asked almost immediately. Ryder shook his head, Andra was surprised because that’s definitely unlike him. “Now that you have this, what’s next?” Andra asked curiously. “He’s seated in the sitting room, if I try to go in there right now he might want to go in with me, we have to come up with a better plan to distract him.” Ryder suggested. The three of them started thinking of what to do and how to get him distracted because they were running out of time already. “Let’s do it this way, Andra you will go talk to him while Aliya and I go to the room.” Ryder suggested
Alpha Daniel pov The next morning. I woke up to the elders in the pack house like there was a serious issue at hand. “What’s going on?” I asked Hope who was also looking shocked and scared at the same time. “I really don’t know, but I think it’s better you don’t go there, they looked very upset.” Hope said to me and started pacing around the room.“Where’s mom?” I asked and just immediately we heard a knock on the door. “It’s me, open the door.” We heard mom say gently. Hope rushed to open the door and Yolanda walked into the room. “Mom, what’s going on?” I asked Yolanda curiously. She sat on the bed hopelessly like something big was about to happen. “Mom, please say something.” I said to her while she was still not saying anything to me. “It’s over Dan.” She said almost in a whisper. My heart skipped. I felt like my blood flow stopped for a minute as I tried to wrap what’s going on around my head. “I don’t understand what you’re saying, I woke up this early morning to the sho
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.

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.

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
