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
The night was long. Maxmillian had retired to bed with Amelia, but he found it hard to sleep. He cuddled Amelia sweetly, wrapping her around his arm, so she could feel warm. "Why haven't you slept?" Amelia quietly."I can't sleep" Maxmillian replied."Why is that? What is troubling you?" Amelia questioned again, turning to face Maxmillian."I just feel weird about all of these things going on. I can't even take care of my son properly because it's not safe. Every day, I go to see him, watching him from afar. But he dont see me. I wish I could have two of you in here without worrying about anything," Maxmillian said."I am sorry about everything I said earlier this evening. I know you are trying to protect us....""But I am not doing a good job," Maxmillian cuts in. "I would die if anything happen to you, Amelia. Yes, you know I love you, but you have no idea how much I love you. I can't lose you, I want us to grow old together for a very long time." Maxmillian said."Then let me fig
Aleah went upstairs to check on Amelia, who had been wide awake hearing everything Aleah told her husband.Aleah knocked on the bedroom door of Maxmillian's room, thinking Amelia wasn't awake."You can come in" Amelia said."Hey... Amelia? How are you doing?" Aleah asked."I'm feeling better." She said, sitting up on the bed."Maxmillian told me everything that happened between you and Alexander yesterday. Are you sure you are alright? Did Alexander say anything to you? Anything weird, did he hurt you?" Aleah asked curiously. "No, he didn't," Amelia replied."Did you get to see this werewolf in question?" Aleah questioned her. "I can find her.""It was fully shifted, Aleah, I couldn't see the face. It was really dark." Amelia answered. "I wish I had been there. It wouldn't have seen the light of the day" Aleah grudged.Amelia kept staring Aleah. Feeling excited inside of her. "I'm so glad you are back," Amelia said."Me too. But I won't be staying for long, I have got work to do,"
Maxmillian knight had taken Amelia and Jason to the pack, where he was certain that they will be safe and protected. On getting there he asked the shape- shifting soldiers if anyone have seen, or heard from Aleah, or any idea which road she took, but their response seemed negative."I'm coming with you" Amelia told him."You are not." Maxmillian replied, not ready to listen to her."You don't understand. I have to__""I am your Alpha and you will do as I say Amelia!!!." Maxmillian yelled. His voice echoing around the Walls of the hidden pack. He looked at everyone and watched as they all stared at him In fright. "This is not a topic up for discussion Amelia. You can't come with me""Keep being delusional. You think I'm going to let you put my baby at risk this time again? You couldn't even handle Grace and Alexander. Alpha my foot." Grace insulted. Walking out on Maxmillian. "You can keep sleeping around, making love with everything you see for all I care. But one thing I Know for cer
Amelia was forcefully dragged into the room by one of Alexander's guards, her arms held tightly. The moment she saw Maxmillian chained, a wave of panic swept over her. She desperately wanted to run to him but was held back by the sight of what had weakened him."What have you done to him?" she cried out. "Release him this instant!" she demanded."On whose orders?" Grace interjected, her tone mocking."Mine," Amelia replied confidently. "Where is my son? Where is my baby?""You might never see them again if you don’t cooperate," Alexander interrupted coldly."You!" Amelia spat, fury and hatred burning in her eyes. "I curse the day I met you. I wish Maxmillian had killed you the moment you set foot in our home.""You mean my home?" Alexander sneered."Your home? Keep dreaming. You’ll never—""Never what?" Alexander interrupted again, his smirk widening. "If you're thinking of that moment... yes, we already had our time together while you were still our hostage.""What? That's not true,"
Gerald had Gone so far that it was hard for anyone to trace him and the baby. Aleah had no option than to seek help from some of the tamed soldiers in the pack. They scavenged through every nook and cranny of the forest but they couldn't find Gerald. "Where would he have gone to?" Aleah asked rhetorically, as she watched her men still search profusely, following the wolf scent that led them to no destination. "You all can go back to the pack, I will take it from here" Aleah commanded.Her soldiers felt ignorant. They wanted to help catch Gerald badly. They hated the fact that he even existed at all. after hearing a lot of terrible things about him. "This is not your fight." Aleah told them. "All of you combined can't defeat Gerald__""Are you underestimating us?" Derrick asked."Of course not." Aleah replied, feeling guilty. She knew in her heart that they would all be dead at one slight glance from Gerald. "Gerald is not someone to be joked with. You can go back to the pack and a
A few minutes after Maxmillian’s connection with Jason faded, Amelia gave birth to a baby girl. Maxmillian could feel the child's presence, sensing her arrival into the world."I have a niece now," Aleah said to Maxmillian, who was still deep in meditation. He let out a faint, tender smile."You can feel that too?" Maxmillian asked."Of course, everyone can feel it. Everyone knows another shape-shifter has been born," Aleah added, crouching to face him. "Her mere presence strikes fear into the hearts of evil. You must protect her at all costs. If not, you will lose everything.""She’s protected. She’s in a place no one can reach, where no one can harm her," Maxmillian replied confidently."Let’s hope so," Aleah responded.Unspeakable joy filled Maxmillian’s heart. He tried to contain his excitement, but it was still evident. Their hunt for Gerald continued, but they had no idea that they were already too late. A message came from Aleah’s hideout—Derrick had left the pack to deliver so
Amelia and Jeremy were still trapped in the strange world where Maxmillian Knight had left them. Although Amelia was with her son, Jason, she seemed unhappy being apart from her husband. It had been a month since Maxmillian abandoned her in the house with the midwife, who, according to Maxmillian, was responsible for her well-being.Jeremy did everything he could to stay on Maxmillian's good side and gain his trust. He protected Amelia as best as he could, even though he knew he lacked the true spirit of an Alpha."Mummy, when is Daddy coming to take us back home?" Jason asked innocently."Very soon, Jason," Amelia replied, groaning in pain.Heavily pregnant and nearing her due date, she walked slowly across the room, pacing from one side to the other with one hand on her lower back."This isn’t my first delivery; why is the pain so much?" Amelia asked, looking uncomfortable."The child is ready to come out. I think you're about to go into labor," the midwife replied coldly, preparing
The moment Alexander woke up, he found himself locked in a room, alongside his mother. Both of them felt weak and helpless. Alexander groaned in pain from the kick Aleah had landed on his face, which had knocked him out.“Where is this place?” Alexander asked Grace weakly.“I have no idea, son. But I think Maxmillian and Aleah brought us here,” Grace replied.She got up and tried to move, but realized there were heavy chains on her legs. “Alex?” Grace called out for help. But when Alexander stood up, he found himself chained as well.“What is this? How dare she chain us like dogs!” Alexander exclaimed, struggling to free himself.“What’s happening to you? Why are you so weak all of a sudden, Alex?” Grace asked.“I have no idea,” Alexander replied. He looked around the empty room. There were no windows, no other doors, and nothing else. The room had only a red bulb that shone dimly. Alexander continued struggling against the chains, but it was no use.“Don’t fight it,” Aleah said, barg
After pouring out thier anger to Maxmillian knight their Alpha. He knew deep down that it was time to let them go relieve themselves off the vengeance they felt."I'll lead the way" Maxmillian knight said.Aleah picked few of the older Shape-shifters who was strong and had witnessed the war between Hannah and her father. who also knew the ability Gerald possess."I want to come along too." A young shape -shifter said."You'd die in seconds" another one replied mockingly, causing stir laughter amongst themselves.Maxmillian bent down to the young one, smiled towards him, rubbing his fluffy bulgy hair. "You will get your chance one day to fight for your people. I can see how brave you are. How strong and willing you are ready to fight. But it's not today. Take care of the pack, and the people in it. I'm counting on you alright""Really?" The little boy said with his calm innocent voice."I'll be right back. Don't let me down" Maxmillian knight added."We have to leave now guys." Aleah c
Immediately after Maxmillian Knight shut the mini door, he rushed back to his sister, Aleah, who was fighting off some of the soldiers that had broken into their home."How many are there?" Maxmillian asked, his voice filled with fear that more might be coming."I don't know. So far, the guards at the gate have been able to keep them out," Aleah replied. "What about Amelia? Is she gone?""Yes, I hope she's far away by now," Maxmillian said. "What can I do to help? Should we leave?""Leave? Why would we leave? These people are here because of Amelia. If they don't find her, they'll go back," Aleah explained."And the book?" Maxmillian asked suddenly."Oh! That's right. Get the book; we need to leave here immediately," Aleah ordered."Where can we go without them following us?" Maxmillian questioned."I think we should go straight to Alexander," Aleah suggested."Are you crazy? Gerald is there—""You are stronger than Gerald; you just don't realize it. You are their Alpha. They need to
Amelia, together with Jeremy had settled in completely, they were now comfortable. Sitting at the dinning room, while Amelia told them everything she heard at Alexander's house. Meanwhile, Aleah kept staring at Jeremy. Looking unsure and feeling uncomfortable with his presence."I just can't trust him" Aleah said bluntly. "Common, if he had wanted to hurt me, he would have done it on our way here." Amelia added. "What if it was a plan between him and Alexander to come here? Have you considered the fact that he might even be a spy, and we are habouring him whole heartedly." "I have seen him before." Maxmillian said calmly, he looked straight at Jeremy, who eyes widened and became frightened. Scared that Maxmillian will remember "you were the one who Alexander sent to still the book.""Aha!!!... I knew it. He is a spy" Aleah bloated out. "Is that true?" Amelia asked Jeremy, shocked at what she just had. She didn't want to believe that she had brought an enemy into their house. "I'm
