Nora’s POV6 days later.I was woken up by a pesky mosquito that wouldn’t stop screaming in my ear, no matter how I tried to swat it away sleepily. It was on my third attempt that I mistakenly smacked myself across the face. I felt an excruciating pain in my head.“Aargh!!!” I cried. It was then that I took in my environment. I recognized the room. I tried to move more, but I couldn’t. I realized there was an IV drip connected to my wrist."Guys, she’s up,” I heard someone say from outside of the room. Then they all come in. Malia, Zen, Hercules, and Mia. They had a huge grin on their faces.“Hi guys,” I smiled back. “Where is Michael?’’ I blurted. They all turned their gazes to the side, and there he was. Sleeping on a small cushion. He was a giant in that chair."Aww,” my heart melted. The girls chuckled as the guys laughed. I think that was what woke him up. He stirred around and was about to fall off the chair, but he caught himself. He peaked an eye open as he stared at everyone’
Nora’s POV5 years later“Nora! Come on, we will be late,” Michael yelled from downstairs.“Coming!” I ran downstairs. But at a slow pace, “please hold her,” I handed Danielle to her father.Today was a game day for Dylan. He had begged us all to come. And when I mean all, I mean me, Michael, Hercules, Mia, Malia, and Zen.Michael cleared his schedule, and for the others, they didn’t have much to do in the park. I was also lucky that my 1-year-old daughter was not fussy today.A lot has happened since I got married to Michael. After I was made Luna, my previous pack came to apologize for some of the things they had done to me. I forgave them. Michael had pity on them; instead of taking ownership of the pack, he made one of them an Alpha, and the moon goddess did the choosing. Hercules and Mia had their child, Arla. Four years ago, she was the most beautiful child I had ever had. She keeps Hercules on his toes, just like her mother. As for Zen, Malia is 5 months old. We also cannot wai
Nora's POVI sneaked into the pack house, making my way to Jake's room. I can't believe my dream has finally come true. Jake and I had always wanted to be mated by the moon goddess. We loved each other, but we still wanted the moon goddess to approve of our love, and that happened today.I had felt the pull; Jake's wolf must have sensed it too, as Camilla and my wolf did. I was feeling all giddy as I tiptoed to Jake's room. There isn't really any reason to sneak around, but it was exciting to do so.When I reached Jake's room, I began to hear noises that caused me to furrow my brows.“Ahh… Jake… oh goodness…” Moans rang out of the room, causing my eyes to widen. I felt my wolf cower in fear of the revelation we were about to receive.“No?” My frown deepened as I slowly reached for the doorknob and began to open it. Tears rolled down my cheeks before I knew what was going on.I gulped when I saw Jake in bed with a lady.“Fuck! Jake! Ah, you're so good."She moaned again, and my eyes wi
Nora's POV“You better get lost, you hear me? Don't you dare bring shame to our people. Look at yourself; you're just an ugly cow. You ain't ever going to find a mate like me. Now get the hell out of here and stop burdening our pack.”These words kept ringing in my head as I ran deeper into the woods. I couldn't go home, nor did I have anywhere to go. My two favorite people are the strangers I just found in bed together. Jake was mine; Maria stole him from me.He rejected me without remorse, forgetting all the promises he made to me. Ignoring all the praise he gave me He had promised that I'd be his Luna, right by his side, when he was crowned Alpha. And Maria had promised to be our children's godmother. She promises to spoil them completely.But the two people I saw in that room just now weren't my favorites; they were strangers and new enemies. They deliberately ripped my heart from my rib cage. They did it on purpose; they hurt me on purpose.I fell to the ground as I screamed,“No
Nora's POVI felt a heavy hand on my waist as the breeze caressed my naked skin, so I slowly opened my eyes only to find a man beside me with his hand on my waist.I gulped first before slowly touching his hands, as I couldn't believe that he was real. When I reached for his hands, I could feel it, and I froze.“He is real!” I whispered, and my hands quickly slapped my mouth shut because I was tempted to scream.I thought it was a hallucination! But what about the monkey and the fish?He was naked, just as I was. Oh no, I slept with a total stranger! And not once, we had gone over again and again till we finally slept off. What the hell was I thinking?!Closing my eyes, I couldn't help but scold myself for being so foolish. Because I was hungry, I didn't know right from wrong anymore.I felt so ashamed of myself and irritated, as I couldn't even see any difference between Jake and me. Just one day after getting rejected, I already allowed a man into my pants.Without much thought, I g
Nora's POV"Congratulations, ma'am; you're two weeks pregnant."“Wh…at!” I choked on my spit. What's the doctor saying?“You're pregnant. The test result is out.” He handed it over to me as he sat down while I slowly took the paper from him. My eyes scanned the paper until I saw 'positive'. I suddenly began to feel dizzy.“Are you okay?” The doctor asked, but before I could reply, I passed out. His words faded as my darkness enveloped me.The next time I opened my eyes, I saw that I had been admitted to the hospital. The doctor stood in front of me,“Can you hear me? Can you see me?” I nodded as I watched him speak. Though he was moving in slow motion, I could see and hear him.“You need to take good care of yourself. You can't go about fainting anyway. You are not one anymore; you're two, and you're carrying a child.” He sounded pissed but was holding it in.Tears rolled down my eyes. I was pregnant. It was definitely the stranger's child. How did I not take proper care and take some
Michael's POV“Name your price. Ten million dollars? Twenty million dollars?” I asked as I walked into the office.My eyes moved to what pulled me over here, or, should I say, who had pulled me over. The boy is sitting quietly at the side of the office. He had a round face, and his hair was dark like mine. I waited for him to raise his head, and he did, and when he did, my eyes widened.I was a carbon copy of my young self when I was around his age. He looked so handsome and innocent; whatever had happened wasn't his fault. I'm not even sure he knew what had happened.“You… you… you will give me… twenty million if I ask for… it?” The lady asked, causing me to move my eyes from my boy to her.Before I could even think of responding, my eyes moved to the lady beside her. Was she the one? The one I slept with seven years ago?Everyone told me she was a ghost; they said it was my imagination, but I know what I felt and what I saw. I didn't sleep with a ghost; she's real, and she gave birt
Nora’s POV:I turned to face Michael, my heart pounding in my chest. "I refuse to stay here," I said, my voice shaking with a mix of anger and hurt. I locked eyes with him, waiting for his response.Confusion flickered across Michael's face as he reached out, gently taking hold of my hand. "Why, Nora? What's the reason?" He asked, his voice filled with genuine concern. I could see the worry in his eyes.But I can’t just go on to live with a stranger.Yes, he claimed he was Dylan’s father. It still didn’t sit well, for he came out of nowhere and suddenly took me and my son.Frustration surged through me, and I struggled to find the right words. How could I explain that moving into his house wasn't as simple as it seemed? "We can't just move into your house. We barely know you," I argued, my voice quivering with emotion.His grip on my hand tightened, his eyes narrowing. "Nora, Dylan is my son too, and I want to be a part of his life," he said firmly, and I gritted my teeth. His voice wa
