Maxmillian and Amelia invited Aleah into the house. Even though they didn't believe her when she claimed to be Maxmillian's elder sister. They offered her water to drink and food to eat. While she sat on the couch waiting for the couple to come and join her. Maxmillian and Amelia began whispering to themselves, standing a bit far from her while they watched her stuff food in her mouth hungrily."Does she have to sit on my couch? Her clothes are dirty, she will stain my cushion." Maxmillian lamented "Why didn't you give this to her at the dining table?""Cushion? Is that all you can think of right now? She is your sister...""We are not even sure of that. How can you believe that so quickly? Did you believe her when she said you were a half-breed?" Maxmillian whispered."Well....""You both realize I can hear you, right? Werewolves can hear from afar. And besides, you both are just three feet away from me." Aleah intruded.Maxmillian and Amelia felt embarrassed. They stared at her for
After Aleah had explained to them everything they needed to know. They gave her a room where she could stay. Maxmillian and Amelia couldn't go to work anymore since it was already late. Maxmillian had asked Amelia to take his sister to a clothing store, so she could get good clothes for herself. Since she was the only family Maxmillian had left, he decided to treat her well. Meanwhile, Grace and Alexander were busy planning how to attack Maxmillian again. They sent their best female army, by the name of Isla, to go and finish the job Evans couldn't. "Do you think Isla will come back?" Alexander asked his mother. "I can't say," Grace answered. "What's the need of sending her then? We will end up losing soldiers at this rate," Alexander said."Then we will make more" Grace yelled. "By the way, we need someone to replace Evans.""I think I have an idea. How about we tell the soldiers we have already, to go out and bring in more soldiers. As many as they like. We don't have to do thi
Aleah had left Maximillian's house that very day and had not returned. He became extremely worried about her, pacing from one corner of his sitting room to another."What are you worried about?" Amelia went on, interrupting Maxmillian's thoughts."Aleah is not back," Maxmillian replied."it's midnight already, it's not safe out there, especially not for her.""She will be fine. She told you she would be back, right? Then trust her, give her the benefit of the doubt," Amelia said."What if something bad happens to her? She is all we have to win this war against Grace. We can't afford to lose," Maxmillian said."Have you tried calling her?" Amelia asked."You are forgetting she doesn't have a phone," Maximilian answered."She has been in the woods for a very long time. I'm very sure she knows her way around. You don't need to be scared Maxmillian" Amelia said, trying to make Maxmillian feel comfortable. "You might be the alpha, but Leah is way stronger than you," Amelia whispered.Maxmil
It had been two days since Aleah left Maxmillian's house. All processes to reach her proved abortive. Maxmillian and Amelia moved on with their daily life. The injury Isla incurred on Amelia had completely healed. For some reason, they were expecting another shape-shifter which Grace was going to send to show up again, but unfortunately, none of them did."What do you think she will be up to this time around?" Amelia questioned Maxmillian while they were back for breakfast."No idea. But Grace is definitely up to something, I can sense it." Maxmillian replied."She should give up already. I am so fed up", Amelia said."She isn't one to give up easily. If she is, she would have forgotten about me a long time ago. Whatever she is planning, is not good at all." Maxmillian added.Just while Maxmillian and Amelia were having their discussion, Maxmillian's phone rang. "Hello?" He said, answering his call."Good morning sir." The person on the other side of the phone greeted me. His name is
"You signed all your life work under your wife's name?" Alexander questioned rhetorically.Maxmillian smirked. "I'm glad you are now begining to see her as my wife," he said."Alexander Monroe," Amelia called out, walking directly to him where he sat. Shivers ran down his spine just by seeing Amelia alone. He couldn't control his heart race, he became numb instantly. "Your heart is beating faster than usual now," Amelia told him. "For someone whom you claim you love, you know how to make her feel pain," Amelia told her."What...what are you talking about?" Maxmillian stammered."On two occasions you have sent two different shape-shifters to come hunt us. The last girl did a clean job leaving injuries on my body. I hope she rot in hell." Amelia said."That was the handwork of my mum." Alexander lied. "Although she didn't send the girl to attack you.""Oh, which means you are aware," Amelia said."I would never hurt you intentionally, Amelia. I wouldn't do that. You know how I feel a
"Have you started reading the book Aleah gave you?" Amelia asked Maxmillian as they got back home, hours after saving the company from Alexander."No. Not yet." Maxmillian replied.It was already dusk. Their ride back home was calm and quiet. For some reason, Amelia was so angry with her husband that she couldn't even look at him.As soon as they got home, she flung her purse on the couch. Staring at Maxmillian aggressively."How did you know Alexander was around?" Maxmillian asked."So we now keep secrets from each other?" Amelia asked back."Secrets? What are you talking about?" Maxmillian asked, looking confused."Before you left, you had no intention of telling me what was wrong. If I had not trailed you, I wouldn't have found out about Alexander's return." Amelia added."I had no idea he was back either. I wanted to keep you safe...""You have been trying to keep me safe since we got married. How has that worked out for you? If not for your sister, I would have died the other day
After a long chase, Alexander didn't succeed in catching the shape-shifter who attacked Amelia. He came to the spot where the incident had happened, and saw Amelia, lying helplessly and unconsciously on the floor. He carried her up and took her to his house. At about 11 pm in the night. Amelia was not back home. Maxmillian began calling her phone, but there was no response since she was still unconscious.Maxmillian Knight became worried sick. He was restless, he had no idea where she would be or where she would go to. He knew she had no friends. He sent a few of his guards whom he had recently employed to go in search of his wife. Maxmillian began pacing from one corner of his compound to another. Hoping that Amelia would just pop out of nowhere. He understood they had a misunderstanding before she left, every word she said to him kept ringing out loud in his head. He saw the guards he had sent to search for her approaching him without Amelia. "Where is she? Where is my wife?" Max
"The Alpha." Melissa cried out, startled that she was before the Alpha. "Leave us, Melissa," Alexander commanded.Melissa couldn't get her eyes off Maxmillian. Her jaw dropped. She saw a lot of Alexander in Maxmillian. Their voices were alike. Their body posture was the same. "I said LEAVE!!!" Alexander roared, sending shivers down Melissa's spine. She ran out of the room immediately. "What are you doing with my wife?" Maxmillian asked."Me?" Alexander smirked. "No, no, no, I didn't do anything. I haven't done anything yet actually, I have just been staring at her beautiful skin from afar." Alexander said. "I must compliment you, Maxmillian knight, you are doing a great job taking care of our woman." "Our?!!! Have you gone nut, Alexander? She is my wife, my woman, my Luna, Mine alone. I won't share with you or anyone, it's high time that got stuck into your head," Maxmillian said angrily."Your woman? You can't even protect her," Alexander said."What? I'm guessing it's the secon
