"What did you just say?" Maxmillian asked. His face was twisted in anger. His breath was so loud that even Maxmillian could hear."Can we go inside and talk?" Amelia pleaded. "There are people here.""You didn't realize that when you chose to bring up the discussion right here?" Maxmillian yelled."Don't yell at me Maxmillian knight, Amelia warned. "It's not as if I enjoyed what I did. I only thought about the safety of my child," Amelia said."Our child, Amelia" Maxmillian responded rudely. "I am not mad at you for being concerned. I'm angry because you didn't tell me you were pregnant, Amelia. You lied to me. You kept it a secret from me? How could you?" Maxmillian asked."I am sorry Max. But like I said, everything is not just about you. I was thinking about my child. I was protecting him from Grace and Alexander. Something kept pushing me to leave here.....""Nothing happened while you were away, Amelia. For the whole year you left, I haven't set my eyes on them up until this mome
It's been more than four years since Maxmillian and Amelia heard a word from Grace Monroe and her son Alexander, ever since they left Maxmillian's, house angrily. They had left the house Maxmillian gave to them, and sent him back the documents and papers of his property via a mail carrier.Although Maxmillian had the hunch that they would be back, he never thought it would be in the most dangerous of ways."How many have you gotten so far?" Grace asked her son Alexander. Coming out of a dark empty room, where just one bed was kept. They went back to the house where they stayed before they went in search of Maxmillian. The house was not as huge as that of Maxmillian, but it was enough for both of them to plan thier evil deeds. Alexander was in the city room, sitting on a soft sofa, crossing his legs, as he sipped wine into his mouth. He watched his mother coming out of the room with her robe untied, looking almost naked. "Two hundred so far." Maxmillian answered. "What about you?"
Meanwhile, Maxmillian and Amelia have taken Jason back to another orphanage home where they feel he will be safe, which is very far away from them. They were scared that something else might come after him."I see why you have hidden him all these years." Maxmillian knight said the night after they had seen the werewolf in their house. "I thought you said you were the last werewolf to exist." Amelia asked." I am. That one you killed happens to be the hand work of Grace and Alexander." Maxmillian answered."What are you talking about?" Amelia asked. Hoping it shouldn't be what she was thinking."I think Grace and Alexander are creating an army of Shape-shifters." Maxmillian answered." The shape-shifter you killed happened to be one of them." He added."What?" Amelia screamed. "Shh. Everyone will hear you. It's midnight babe" Maxmillian warned. "Are you insane? There is no one left in this compound apart from both of us, that things killed each and every maid and guard we had." Ame
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
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
