Natalia took a step back. She could not understand what Benjamin was trying to say."What do you mean?"A rogue came her way, but she was lost in thoughts. So the rogue could viciously claw her arm.She became enraged because of the pain in her arm. She turned around and growled at the wolf.She killed the rogue and turned back to Gamma Benjamin.Delta Julian and Theta Emon were fighting with other rogues."We lost Alpha and Beta Patric in the war," Delta Julian said from a distance in the mind link."Did they get stuck in the fire?" Natalia asked with a trembling voice.The three officials glanced at her for a moment before shaking their heads."No. They were with us in the war," they assured her in their mindlinks.Natalia let out a deep breath, thinking that they were okay. They might have gone too far away while fighting. They would be back soon."We will find them. Don't worry, Natalia," Jason said as he was fighting with some rogues.Natalia listened to her brother and focused o
It had been two weeks since the rogues attacked the pack’s village.The whole pack had turned upside down. Everyone wanted only one thing, and that was, where was their head Alpha?They could not find Adrian, nor could his body.Was he alive?If so, where was he?Natalia's life became colorless. The woman who used to be so beautiful and powerful had turned into a broken woman.Adrian's parents lost their hopes. They loved their son a lot. They could not take it when they found out Adrian had gone missing.Alpha Lucas had a heart attack because he thought his son was dead. Yearning for her son to come home, Grace constantly cried in a corner of their room.Only a miracle could do that.Aria and Noah tried to support their mother, showing her that they were strong children.They believed their dad was fine and went somewhere."Mommy, please eat something. Dad will scold you if he comes back and sees you not eating anything," Noah said to Natalia.Aria was holding the spoon of food close
It was a shock to Natalia. Her suspicion proved to be accurate. She slowly touched her belly and mumbled,"Is there a child inside?"She lowered her head and looked at her belly.Her eyes began to well up with tears as she reflected on how she had brought up Aria and Noab without Adrian.When she was pregnant before, she believed Adrian did not love her and that there was no hope of saving her twins, so she had to leave him.But at this moment, she had nothing in her mind. That man had shown her so much love that she wanted to leave this world and go to where he was.She believed Adrian had not died. Her wolf did not want to believe it either.Her fate may have been unfortunate, but it could not have given her this punishment in order to force her to live a life of punishment."Miss, are you okay? You don't look happy. Don't you want this child?""No, I want this child," she responded right away.Grasping her dress with her fist, she murmured,"I want this child."With sorrowful eyes,
Natalia returned to the pack house with Gamma Benjamin. She went to Adrian's parents to check on them.Alpha Lucas's health had improved slightly. But Grace did not look well. She had been sick before, and Natalia had to cure her. Now, with the depression she was feeling for her only son, she was losing her health.Like the other days, the day went by while Natalia waited for Adrian to come back home.The night passed, just like the nights Natalia cried in loneliness for her husband.The next morning,Natalia took a shower while carrying a heavy burden in her heart. Her eyes were puffy, and she appeared to be in a state of distress. Her family called her to ask if she was eating properly. Jason assured her that his men were trying to find Adrian in different packs.Natalia could not help but try to show them that she was strong. However, only she knew how she was feeling on the inside.She had not told anyone yet about her pregnancy.Only Gamma Benjamin was aware of it and he promised
Natalia was shocked. She felt as if it were a dream where she heard about Adrian.She had been searching for him for two weeks. She would lie if she said she did not think something might have happened to Adrian.But after hearing about his arrival, it was almost like she was in a dream."Luna?"Amanda patted on her shoulder when she noticed she was lost in her thoughts."Luna, just now some guards called Gamma Benjamin about Alpha's arrival in the pack. He said Alpha is coming back to the pack house."Natalia came out of her thoughts as a smile spread on her lips."He is back?"Manda's eyes welled up with tears as she noticed Natalia's happiness.After Alpha went missing, her gracefulness, which everyone had seen at the wedding, was nearly lost.Now Amanda could catch a glimpse of that old Natalia again."Yes, Luna," Amanda replied.Natalia did not ask her anything else, as she did not need to know anything else. Her husband was back, and it was enough for her.She rushed out of her
Natalia glanced at the woman's hand, which was holding Adrian's arm.Her eyebrows arched as she slowly lifted her gaze to Adrian.She took a step back when she noticed the woman hugging his arm.It was then that Beta Patric walked into the pack house.All the officials hugged him, welcoming him back. He was in the other car, so it took him some time to arrive.Natalia could not move her attention from Adrian. She was waiting for Adrian to remove the woman's hand from him. But it did not seem he was feeling any discomfort around the woman."Who is she, Adrian?" Grace Miller asked her son.It did not look good the way the young woman was hugging her son.The young woman cast a glance at Grace. She had a beautiful face with a pair of soft emerald eyes. Her beauty was capable of attracting any man she desired.She looked innocent and young, much younger than Natalia.Adrian looked at his mother and replied,"Mom, she is Hazel Leighton.""Okay, but who–"Alpha Lucas interrupted his wife as
Natalia's eyes grew almost cold as she looked at Hazel. But before she could react further, Hazel burst out laughing. “Look at your face, Sister. I was just joking. Don't worry, he is all yours. I took care of him without realizing he was the Alpha Adrian we had always heard about.” Natalia did not move her gaze away from her. She was not stupid. She caught her intention in her words. However, her heart skipped a beat when she heard a deep voice. "My wife doesn't like this kind of joke. So never dare to do that again." Adrian's voice and words caused Natalia to feel relief in her heart. She was on the verge of believing that he had taken another woman in their married life, just like Lynda. Hazel turned around to look at Adrian. His dark eyes pierced into hers. Hazel immediately turned away from him and looked at Natalia. "Please tell him not to kill me. I apologize if I offended you, sister." Natalia noticed tears well up in her eyes. She blinked, realizing she had
Natalia did not know what to say. She had no idea why her cheeks had heated up. She lowered her head and bit her bottom lip to conceal her shy smile.The way Adrian defended her in front of this woman, it touched her heart.It revealed a protective side of him, leading her to believe it was her Adrian."Let's go," Adrian murmured, dragging her upstairs.Natalia parted her lips, not knowing where they were going.She cast a glance behind her at the others. She saw Adrian's father was not happy at all. Grace appeared perplexed by her husband's behavior.When Adrian brought Natalia upstairs, she noticed him take her to their bedroom.She fixed her gaze on her handsome husband as they walked together.She glanced at her hand that he was holding gently, as if she were fragile to him.She wanted to hide her shyness from him. Her eyes were filled with tears. She still could not believe that he was back.Adrian opened the door, and they stepped inside. Adrian let go of her hand and looked aro
