Diane's POV

Silence filled my ears and I figured Kelvin must have gone to inform Lucas about it, so I began to bite on my fingernails as I waited.

Tears were running down my cheeks as my foolishness played inside my head over and over again.

Keith had planted the idea into my head. It was his plan all along and I had fallen for it.

If I didn't get to see Owen's birth certificate, I would only still have my doubts and suspicions of the similarities between him and my son but I wouldn't have left —at least not until Sophie came for me with the police.

But as I even thought about it, I knew I was only deceiving myself. With the sort of stubbornness I had, I would have still tried to run.

But maybe I wouldn't have tried escaping on my own. Maybe I would have waited for Sophie. And then Keith wouldn't have been able to kidnap Owen.

My legs started trembling as my own decisions continued slashing at me. I was too stubborn. Keith had used me but if I was to blame anyone for my misfortune, it

    Diane's POV Throughout the car ride, I couldn't stop myself from crying. The tears just continued streaming down my cheeks and I couldn't stop it. If anything I welcomed it.They said when you cried a lot, you were letting out your pain off your body but no amount of tears could cure the pain I felt. It only got stronger.My heart was squeezing in on itself and my lungs felt like they would explode as the air kept reducing.My chest felt like an elephant sat in it and even as I rubbed my hands over it. It didn't stop. It only got stronger.I couldn't even look out of the car because the vehicle was covered. This was because Lucius didn't want me to know the way back. The driver's side of the vehicle was also covered, so aside from the soft sound of the tires moving over the tarred road, my sniffled and aching heart were the only sounds that kept me company.After what felt like an entire lifetime, the vehicle came to a stop and the side door opened."Luna, please step out," Greg, the

    Lucius's POV"What did your contact in the human city say?" Lucas asked, snapping me out of my thoughts."Oh," I breathed. "They need to track him and there is nothing tangible on Owen to track him with..."When I had spoken to Bucks, he told me unless Owen had a special type of wristwatch or some tracker on him, there was no way they could do it. In his words, 'it wasn't magic' they needed to have something to work with before they could even begin."I don't know if I was supposed to place a tracker on my son expecting that one day he would get kidnapped," I breathed, completely drained.My heart was too broken for me to think straight. There was so much that weighed me down and to think of it meant I was going to lose my mind."Lucius, I didn't have his tab in his room, what if they can track that?" Lucas suddenly asked.I looked at him with narrowed eyes, waiting for the information to process. When it finally clicked, I jumped out of my chair and grabbed my phone to call Bucks."Y

    Diane's POVAs I saw Lucius standing before me, I felt my heart squeeze in both pain and hope, all at the same time.He looked like he had been in the same condition as I had been for the past few days. It made my heart leap with joy knowing that he had come to be with me. I understood that I had made a big mistake thinking such bad things of him and I also knew that it had hurt him beyond anything. The past days alone without him and our baby was like surviving through hell itself. At least, if I could not have my baby with me, I could have the man I loved with me. "Diane," He called. Hearing my name from him made my stomach melt away. A smile which was rather sad found its way to my lips. "I knew you would come. I was waiting desperately for you. I'm so sorry. I promise not to make that mistake again. I promise to be better this time. I promise to never give you a reason to be angry," I began to say as I cried. I immediately ran into his arms and hugged him. I cried into his c

    Diane's POV"How did her phone get to your hands?" Lucius asked as if he had read my mind.Something shifted in her eyes and she quickly flashed him a big smile."Oh, her phone... I found it on the streets a couple of weeks ago," she said, placing her right hand on her waist. "It was just sitting there on the floor waiting for me... It's one of the reasons why I came to Macy's. I was sure she would know where you were whoring at..." she said.My hands balled into fists and all I wanted was to jump at her but I had to calm my nerves.Monique was playing a mind game here to get me to divert from the real truth but I wasn't stupid. I did lose my phone but it couldn't just be sitting pretty in the middle of the road waiting for her and then she chose now to come to Macy... Her story didn't add up."You told Macy you came here to see your friends?" I blurted out my eyes narrowing at her."Oh, yes... I did but it was mainly because I wanted to give your phone back to you," she said and I s

I asked him.He raised Diane's device and turned it over to me; "I think it has been tampered with. Nothing we do is working. It is like a major blockage somewhere..."My heart stopped beating in my chest as my fingers closed around the device."Isn't there something you can do to stop this blockage? Are you saying I should just give up?""No, sir, we can—"His words ended halfway as the door to the conference room flew open and a very agitated Lucas ran in."Lucius!" He breathed like a bull about to charge.I straightened up and stared at him. "What is it?""We are checking the wrong thing. We need to find Keith. He is with Owen," he said through clenched teeth.My eyes narrowed and I turned to Bucks to be certain this wasn't j

My son was somewhere here, I thought to myself as I began to march through it with determination.With my wolf's vision, I could clearly see all the doors lined along the corridor. I started opening it one after the other searching for the right one."Owen?" I called, no longer concerned with the hooded guy realizing I had trailed him.If he was any good at his job, he should have sensed me long before now because I hadn't been trying hard enough to hide my track."Owen!" I called again as I continued kicking through the doors.My heart was racing so much I could not even think straight. My insides were squeezing in on themselves and I felt like I would pass out with rage plus panic.I was beginning to think I had imagined his voice when I heard a window crashing at the end of the corridor. I abandoned the room I about inspected and ran toward it.I had just two doors left t

I growled, turning to give Lucas my full attention.He ran his hands through his hair and looked at me."Keith has instated himself as the Alpha King and anyone against him is being thrown in the dungeon. I got the information from some of our men. He is threatening that it will get bloody," he explained."What? Does he have a death sentence over his head?" I growled, my wolf growing with anger with each second that passed."After everything I did for that fool, he is the one who wants to take over my kingdom?" I yelled.A nurse passing by gave us a strange look but I paid her no attention. A lot of people were going to die if I allowed him on the thrown."We need to get back there and stop him!" Lucas pointed out."I know that," I said but my voice had gone weaker because I remembered why I was in the hospital in the first place.I turned and my eyes landed on the innocent boy the doctors were working on —Owen."I can't leave

    Diane’s POVI felt something within me shift and before I could stop myself, I threw myself against Scarred-face, screaming my lungs out.“Let my baby go!” I screamed.In my mind, I was so sure that I would manage to create enough distractions to take Owen from them and run as far as I could, but all those moves were only in my head. I didn’t even get far before Liam grabbed me roughly by the arm.“Where do you think you are going? The party is just starting…” he growled and threw me hard towards the bed. My head hit the bedframe and I felt my consciousness dwindle before my eyes.I blinked, panicking even stronger. If anything happened to me now, I wouldn’t be able to protect Owen anymore. I would fail once again in protecting my baby.“Mummy!” Owen screamed and I tried to raise myself from the ground despite the dizziness in my head.I refused to give up. My body was groaning in defeat, but I would rather die. Adrenaline pumped through my bloodstreams, and I dragged myself back to m

I still remembered the route we had taken while coming, so I traced it back to my room.I was about to take the final bend when I heard a deafening growl from a room on my right. The blood within my body froze and panic started drumming through my skin.They said anyone who knew could be rescued, so I let my curiosity lead me to the side of the wall where I could get a good angle to see what was happening in that room.“No!” the roar echoed out of the room once again. “Keith can’t die like that!” he screamed again, and I watched as Liam held his head and dropped to the ground with tears in his eyes.“My lord, I saw the body with my two eyes. Lucius had made sure there would be no regeneration for him. He is dead-” a man covered in a hood was saying.I covered my mouth as the realization of what this meant flooded through

    Lucius’s POV“Are you sure we are heading in the right direction?” I asked Monique for the third time since we have been on the road. I noticed that we had been going around the same places for close to two hours now and she just sat there with a smug look on her face, watching me as I drove as if I was a new show in a cinema.“Monique? Didn’t you hear me?” I asked, throwing a glance in her direction. She was now sitting with her legs spread apart and the skirt barely visible anymore.“Hmmm, yeah… yes, of course… just keep going…” she said, waving her hand to the screen while her eyes remained on me.My wolf twisted with disgust at her position. If she couldn’t sit properly, she shouldn’t have worn such an absurd outfit. I wanted to reprimand her to adjust herself, but I decided to ignore it. She was not my responsibility.“I don’t know if you have noticed but we have been going round the same place for hours now. Can you look at the road and tell me where we are supposed to go?” I a

I would do anything to save my family, so I understood exactly where he stood in all of these.In the next couple of hours, I tried to remain positive as I studied every inch of the room, we were kept in, hoping that a miraculous door would appear from nowhere and I could step out of it.I even took my time to think about my decisions, wondering if things could have been different if I had acted in another way. I was stuck on a roller coaster of emotions till sleep managed to steal me.But even the sleep didn’t give me the rest of mind I needed. I kept seeing horrible endings to our situation that soon turned into a nightmare. The worst of them was when I saw Liam kill Owen. I was going to die first before I let anything happen to Owen.By the time my eyes opened, they went straight to Owen and I only relaxed after I saw that he was

As usual, as soon as I parked the vehicle in their driveway, I noticed the move of the curtain and I was suddenly reminded of Fred’s death.At some point after all of this was over, I would have to inform her of what had happened to her brave husband.My heart was heavy with sadness, but I swallowed it back. If I slacked now, her husband wouldn’t be the only bad news I would be giving her.I got out of the vehicle and this time Lucas stepped down with me. Together we went to her front door and just a few feet before we got to it, the door opened, and it wasn’t who I was expecting.“Where is Diane?” Sophie’s firm voice rang out around the area like she had a microphone buried in her throat.“Something came up and she… can I come in, there is a lot I have to explain to you,” I said. My voice was heavy with emotions, and I hoped she didn’t aggravate things.She studied me for a second before her sha

She was going to be broken when she found out about her grandfather but more than that, I needed to get her before Liam decided to do something crazy.Each moment I spent in that vehicle increased the number of questions rolling through my head and by the time I got to Bucks quarters, I practically jumped out of the moving vehicle.Lucas who had already been notified was standing at the entrance waiting for me and the moment he saw me, he ran towards me and hugged me. A rare moment where we shared our bond as brothers and as much as I wanted to just push him away and proceed inside, I could understa

If things continued at this pace, we were going to lose.I tore through the bodies of soldiers and tried to make my way into the castle where I knew that Keith would be waiting. He had planned this very well; he knew that it was going to take a lot more to bring him down with the ninja wolves on his side, but I refused to give up.I tapped into my alpha abilities and skillfully cut through them, but they were like ants. If two fell another four appeared and I knew that I had to strategize again if I was going to beat them, or they would change the narrative of the fields.

    Lucius’s POVI marched toward the tent where Fred was being kept with a boiling heart filled with rage.I felt so stupid. The signs had always been there from the very beginning, and I failed to recognize them or maybe I was just too blinded to see them.From the very first day I met him, I recognized the strange scent of him. When he gave me that cock and bull story about his pack, I knew there was something about it that didn’t entirely add up, but I chose to believe it.And then it didn’t stop there, when the council had arrested him suspecting him to be Patrick, I had the feeling that they were on to something. My council might have been cowards, but they were not entirely stupid. Something must have led them to Fred’s doorstep, and I had closed my eyes to that possibility.Fast forward to the day I went to tell him about his freedom, he had been on the phone speaking about something strange. Yet again, I let it slide. He even had the guts to call me and give me intel like he was

    Diane’s POV“You have lost your mind, Liam!” I hissed shaking my head in disgust and disbelief. If he really thought that after everything, he did to me I would belittle myself to the point of sleeping with him then he must have truly lost his mind.He threw his head back and let out an irritating laughter before stopping to look deeply into my eyes. “Do not worry. We have all the time in the world. Lucius is Keith’s reward, while you are mine. No one is going to stop me,” he said and got on his feet.I felt the blood in my body scatter and my heart started beating at a dangerously fast pace, but I kept my cool. Owen was also staring with a glint of fear in his eyes, and I held him tight. I was ready to protect him with my entire life.“Louis please, take them inside. Let her freshen up,” he said to the traitor who had sold me out and then his evil eyes turned to me, “When I need her, I will call for her.
