Maximilian Knight walked fearlessly into the room where Alexander was. He saw Amelia tied to a chair and immediately lost it.

"Have you gone nuts? How dare you, Alexander? Untie her this minute," Maximilian commanded in a very angry tone.

"Of course, I will do that. But not until I get what I want," Alexander stated.

Maximilian looked around but could not find Jason.

"Where is my son? Where is Jason? Bring him out immediately," he roared loudly, almost losing it, and shifting.

"Oh, shut it, old man. Stop ranting," Alexander rebuked. "You came to my house and killed all of my soldiers. What were you thinking? That I was going to let it slide? I am not a weakling like you, Mr. Maximilian Knight."

"Take whatever you want. You can take me instead. Just let my wife and son go. Keep them out of this. They have done absolutely nothing wrong to you," Maximilian said. "If you hurt them or lay one finger on them, I might just end up losing it on you," Maximilian warned, moving closer to Alexand

    That same night, Maxmillian Knight walked home feeling disappointed in himself. He was unable to get back his wife and son. He couldn't just hand over the shape-shifter's book to Alexander. He would use it to destroy their entire existence. He also couldn’t think of how he would tell Aleah to surrender herself to Grace and Alexander in exchange for another, nor did he know where Aleah was.Maxmillian Knight looked devastatingly worried. He paced every single part of his bedroom, pondering a way out. But every one of his thoughts was to no avail. He began imagining things, like what Alexander would do to Amelia."What if he tries to talk her out of the love she has for me?" he soliloquized. He couldn't bear the thought of anything harming his family, so he picked up a jacket and went in search of Amelia in the woods.At about 1:00 a.m., Maxmillian Knight was still in the woods searching for his sister. He probably needed her advice on what to do to get his family back. When it seemed l

    The facial expression Alexander let out made Amelia scared. She became worried sick, wondering how Alexander found out, even when her husband hadn't."How did you know?" Amelia asked curiously."Is that supposed to be a question?" Alexander asked again."Why not? I haven't told anyone, not even my husband, so how the hell did you find out?" Amelia answered rhetorically."I told him." Grace walked in, interrupting their conversation. "You think I wouldn't know? I am a woman, remember? I see signs."Amelia became angrier just at the sight of Grace. She had always hated Grace since the very moment Grace walked into their house to take Maxmillian from her."Stay away from me. I wasn't talking to you," Amelia replied rudely."You still got nerves. Don't forget you are our hostage. I see Alexander is beginning to make you feel you are worth it. But need I remind you that you are worth nothing.""Does my presence here make you feel burdened? Then let me go!" Amelia yelled."Don't yell at my

    Amelia's eyes shimmered as she told Alexander her decision. Alexander and Grace happened to be the only enemies Maxmillian had. Even though they were family, he hated the fact that they were always against him."You made a good choice, Amelia," Alexander said. "I will tell my armies to come back home, and I will tell Maxmillian you asked to see him...""No! I can't just tell him that right away. Give me some time, please," Amelia pleaded."Sure. You can have all the time you need. Tell me whenever you are ready to see him. I will send for him myself, okay?" Alexander said.He pecked Amelia on her cheek and left the room again. Amelia let out a loud cry, wondering how she got herself into such a mess. "Maybe if I had listened to Maxmillian that night, I wouldn't have been in such a mess," Amelia thought.Every day that passed, Maxmillian came to check on Amelia. He hadn't gotten Aleah, which was the bait Grace needed in exchange for Amelia. Whenever he came, Amelia rejected him, saying

    Days turned into weeks, and weeks turned into months as Maxmillian Knight felt utterly miserable. In just a few days, he had lost everything, most of all his wife, his Luna—the woman he cherished with his life. He couldn't fathom how he had allowed his son to take everything away from him."How on Earth did you let yourself get pregnant by Alexander?" Maxmillian asked rhetorically. "Why did you do this to me, Amelia?" he cried helplessly. He was sitting on the floor in front of his couch, taking shots, drowning in sorrow, with tears streaming down his cheeks. He was dead drunk, soaked in his own tears, unable to think clearly. To him, the world had ended. There was nothing left to fight for, and he was too scared to visit his son, Jason, fearing he might be followed again. He had no idea where his sister Aleah was. There was no one to talk to, no friends to confide in. The thought of starting over terrified him.Maxmillian eventually passed out on the floor of his sitting room. When G

    Grace got home that morning and stormed into the living room. She headed straight for a wine glass, gulping down several shots, and then began pacing angrily from one corner of the room to another.Alexander saw her and walked up to her, trying to calm her down."What’s wrong, Mother? Where were you last night?" he asked, looking worried. He had never seen his mother so angry before."Where is that thing?" Grace shouted, her voice rising to a yell."What thing? What are you talking about, Mum? Can you calm down and stop pacing?" Alexander roared, clearly frustrated."Where is Amelia?" Grace demanded again."Amelia is not a thing, Mum," Alexander pointed out."Oh, Alexander, you must be a fool to think you've won just because you have her here, even for a moment—""A moment? What do you mean by that?" Alexander interrupted."I'm here. What do you want from me this time?" Amelia asked as she burst in. She walked slowly, her stomach noticeably bulging."You bitch! Just so you know, I was

  • The Alpha Billionaire Mistress and his Secret Baby    Gerald (Hannah's Son)

    "Who is Hannah? And how did you find me? What can I do for you?" Alexander asked curiously. Just the fact that he knew Gerald hated his father, Maxmillian, was enough to make him listen. "I see you know my father.""Oh, I hate him so much. He should be dead, if not for the help of his mother and sister, Aleah," Gerald added."You know Aleah too?" Grace asked."She's my worst nightmare. It's a long story. My mother was part of the war that broke out after humans discovered that shape-shifting werewolves lived among them. Many of our kind died, including my mother, Hannah, and Maxmillian's father," Gerald said. "But that’s not enough. Maxmillian's knight of a father is the reason my mom died. I can even say he killed her. As the saying goes, 'the sins of the father may affect the child.' I'd like to make an offer.""What offer?" Alexander asked."What do you want most?" Gerald inquired."I want to become the next Alpha. I want Maxmillian Knight dead, and I want his wife, Amelia, to be m

    On hearing the name Hannah, Maxmillian’s mouth fell wide open. He remembered how gruesome Aleah had portrayed his mother to be."What have you come here to do? I thought you were dead," Aleah asked rudely."Dead? Come on, Aleah, you of all people should know that it would take more than twenty Alphas to bring me down, let alone just your brother," Gerald replied."I don’t have any business with you, Mr. Gerald, or whatever you call yourself. I'm here for my wife, Amelia," Maxmillian said. He then turned to Alexander, who kept staring at him."You had an affair with my mother again, didn’t you?" Alexander asked."What do you want in return for Amelia's freedom?" Maxmillian asked.Alexander smiled, then giggled, which turned into an annoying laugh. "If you step down as the Alpha right here and now, you can go with your wife and your sister.""An Alpha is not something that can be passed down; you need to earn it. Don’t you know anything? You are not fit to become an Alpha, Alexander, an

    Back at Alexander's Monroe apartment, Grace had taken Gerald to a room where he could stay for as long as he wanted."Make yourself comfortable," Grace said to him."Of course I will," Gerald replied. "One more thing," he added, turning to Grace."Tell your son that the time is near. Maximilian won’t sit still knowing that his wife and unborn baby are in Alexander's custody. I sense his rebellion," Gerald concluded."I'll do just that," Grace said calmly, as she excused herself from Gerald's room.Meanwhile, Amelia was anxiously pacing every corner of Alexander's bedroom, where Melissa had forcibly kept her. Alexander barged into the room angrily, startling Amelia and causing slight complications in her stomach."Don’t scare me like that, Alexander," Amelia pleaded, sobbing."Or what? It’s going to affect your baby?" Alexander teased, shutting the door behind him. Fear gripped Amelia, but she tried to maintain her composure. She didn’t want Alexander to see her fear."What do you want

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?"

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.

    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 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

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?

"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!!!...
