Scott’s Pov:

I was thinking Liam was joking when he mind-linked me, asking for the table I was sitting on, and when he told me he was in the hall with my Luna and sister. I surveyed the area for his presence, but I didn't see him.

I was still trying to process what just happened when I answered him. Then I looked up again to survey, just to be very sure, and then I saw him approaching me with a gorgeous lady by his side and Anna behind them.

The lady looked oddly familiar, and I wondered why because I wasn't acquainted with any of Liam’s numerous ladies. She had a scowl masked on her face, and as she came closer, it then occurred to me that the mystery lady was my very own mate, Emma.

I was stunned; she looked totally different and beautiful. Now she was embodying Luna's physical qualities. I was mesmerized by her; my mouth was agape, but I closed it almost immediately. I noticed Ashley was still clinging to me, so I slowly removed her hands from me. I felt like it was unfair for Emma

    Scott’s Pov:My eyes followed them into the dance floor. Ashley grunted behind me, “Do you want to dance with me or do you still want to keep frowning at them?"Then it dawned on me that I'd been staring at them for too long and that it could be unhealthy for my eyes.I held her hands, leading her to the dance floor. Her face lit up in extreme joy, but I wasn't interested; I just wanted to be close to Emma and Liam. I couldn't shake off the kind of pain I was feeling as I saw her laughing and happy with another man. If she had taken something, I would have blamed the alcohol.When we got to the dance floor, she came so close to me that I could feel her breath fanning me on my jawline. I clasped her right hand with my left hand and then placed my right hand just beneath her left shoulder blade. Ashley rested her hands firmly on my right arm and shoulders.We began to waltze according to the rhythm of the orchestra. Ashley was a good dancer, so we flowed uniformly. I was staying close t

  • The Alpha’s Accidental surrogate Mate   After event

    Scott’s Pov:The house was quiet when I entered; there was no sign of Anna or Liam. Considering that they left the event early, they were nowhere to be found in the house. I wasn’t worried because Liam was with her, and Anna was also capable of taking care of herself.I took giant strides straight to my bedroom. The room was dark when I opened the door. I flicked on the lights by the door, and the room illuminated. Emma stayed quiet on my body, but it looked like she wasn’t exactly comfortable. My hands were aching badly, and her ball gown was super heavy. It was so uncomfortable for me to carry her, considering the ambiguous layers associated with the dress.I quickly placed her on the bed in a sitting position, so she could undress if she wanted to.I moved away from the mirror area. I began to unbutton my blazer first. Emma joined me by the mirror, and she picked up a packet of cotton wipes from the table. She selected four out of the packet and started dabbing them on her face to

    Emma’s Pov:My morning was nauseous just like any other morning; this morning was worse than before, and this propelled Scott to finally agree to take me to the hospital for antenatal care. He had always postponed our hospital visit due to work at the border.He had been stressed lately, and sometimes I was so concerned about the state of his health that I wanted to comfort him and just allow him to lean on my shoulders, but he didn't give me the room to do so.My stomach was already out; one could see I was pregnant from a mile away. My back suffered the most, but Anna helped me a lot in massaging my back as my mate was away to fulfill his duties.He came with one of the werewolves working at the border; he looked like he wasn't fitting into the pack. From what I heard, Anna, he was a lone wolf that Scott had mercy on and picked up, so since then he has been grateful and hasn't left Scott's side.As I was at the dining table devouring my mountain of English breakfast and cereal, the

    Scott pov:My heart rate accelerated, and on impulse, I rushed to catch Emma before she fell to the ground and caused another casualty.“Doctor, please help!” I yelled frantically. I was so scared for the lives of both the child and Emma. I sat on the floor and cradled her in my arms, and she lay on my chest. “Kendrick, call the doctor, please.“ I literally had to push him to get going. He quickly opened the doctor’s door and went in. We were just outside the doctor’s office when Emma became unconscious.Momentarily, two nurses in purple scrubs hurried over, carrying her up from my body. The doctor came out of the door with Kendrick behind.“Nurses carry her to my office and seat her down on a chair." Doctor Pearson instructed the nurses and paved the way for them to pass. Some of the people who were passing paused to see what was happening. I didn't bother at this point; I just wanted to be sure that Emma and the baby were fine.Inside the office were seats just before the table and a

    Emma’s Pov:“So first, we will check your blood pressure before we can go on with anything else, and later on, your urine." Doctor Pearson announced she was looking at me to be sure I was following her. I nodded.I've not always liked hospitals, and the smell of hospitals irritated me. I couldn't wait to do all the tests and leave the hospital."Well, a medical scientist would take your urine samples to run a test on them while I will check your blood pressure by myself."I was tired of presenting myself as a lab rat. I was so used to the in-house and phone consultations I received most of the time, so I wasn't used to this hospital thing, and it was starting to wear off on me.Doctor Pearson noticed my displeasure and smiled brightly at me. “I know you are not used to this kind of thing, but I will try my best to make it easy and fast for you.” She squeezed my hand reassuringly.She ambled to her table, picked up the phone on her table, dialed some numbers in it, and muttered some wor

    Chapter 51Emma’s Pov: As we entered the pack house, Scott’s mother was sitting down on the couch. She crossed her legs on a table in front, and a TV remote was in her hands. Her attention was focused on the TV.As she noticed our presence, she sprung up happily and clutched her son warmly, pushing me a little. I was so quick to move; if not, I would have fallen down. “How did it go at the hospital?"“Good, I'm so tired, Mom. Can we talk later?” It was more like a plea than a request.“You must be tired; I'd let you rest now." She let him go and turned to me, who was almost at the staircase."Emma, or whatever your name is, I hope you are ready for the Luna Rite trials tomorrow. Everything has been set and kept ready for the day.I forgot about the trials; I was so stressed, and I wished I wouldn't have done them.“She’s not doing it; cancel all the plans immediately, Mom,” Scott said calmly, giving his mom a fierce look.His mom glared at me. “Did you put him up to this?"“No, I sai

    Emma’s Pov: My eyes peeled open with anxiety. I was restless in the night; I couldn't even sleep, and when I tried to fall asleep, I dreamed of the Luna rites trial. In the dream, I wasn't declared the Luna, and the Elders banished me from their pack. Scott just looked on as I was dragged away in tears. The dream was terrifying; the melodious tone the birds were singing by my window would have been melodious if it were another day, but today it sounded annoying and bothersome.Two maids stood at the door, waiting with a basket filled with white linens to receive me. Then another set of two maids were by the bathroom door. They were all wrapped in fine white linen, too.I turned over the blanket and slid it down, reaching for my fluffy black slippers. I wore them, and I climbed out of bed.I traipsed to the door; the maids bowed and gave way for me to pass through. The house was busy, maids moved around at a fast pace, decorators were busy, and a man was on the ladder attaching things

I was supposed to go to the border, but I couldn't go anymore because of Emma. Liam and the Gamma had to leave for the border in the company of the Gamma.I was stunned when I heard Ashley was Emma’s challenger. My mother had her way and managed to get Ashley in.

  • The Alpha’s Accidental surrogate Mate   Hitched for life!

    The wedding day.I have imagined several ways that my wedding was going to take place. Fairytales that was what I called them. The pink lilies lined up the walks, I even imagined my dog walking down the aisle with me bearing the rings with the revered flower crown adorning his or her furry head. It was going to be a white wedding where everyone wore white same as the decorations.But never in Gods green earth did I imagine that I was going to have a double wedding with the man of my heart and sister from another mother. But more importantly, that Theresa was going to walk beside my mother as they accompany my son and I down the aisle to handle me over to Scott as his wife and Luna.It was my dream come true with a touch of radical goodness. I could never stop my face from gleaming with joy merely looking at Scott standing there in his white tuxedo his face a mask of angelic warmth. And on the other side was Liam and his newly-wedded bride, Aan, their hands entangled as they welcomed

    We raced down the hall, our lies having been perfectly constructed. We had all agreed to tell Theresa that I woke up with a terrible headache and was only coming down for the training out of respect for her. It was a lot getting Liam to flow with the lies but he had agreed anyway. However as we neared the stairs, a loud scream tore through the house from down the stairs. "What's that?" Anna asked, increasing her step that soon turned to a run. We joined in, taking the stairs two at a time. The loud voices was coming from the direction of the Omegas quarters, the men's quarters precisely. We arrived in time to encounter Theresa deliver a well-aimed slap on Ashley's face who bent over bawling her eyes out."Mom!" Anna went to block her as she lifted her hand to give her another slap. "What is going on here?"Theresa covered her face with her right hand, her left in her waist. Her very schooled elegance was gone to be replaced by an infuriated expression. She wagged her forefinger at A

  • The Alpha’s Accidental surrogate Mate   Another failed attempt

    Wandering aimlessly helped me to learn a lot in one night, particularly the vastness of the mansion. I strode to the back of the house where the training ground was located, bending a few corners before I saw it stretched endlessly over the grassy field, with different objects constructed at diverse positions for training. I was stupefied for once, all the anger in me dissipating to be replaced by awe. I went to the Wolf leaper standing at the crossbar and touched it, taking note of the rough exterior. My eyes caught the flicker of the power tester that is used to train young pups to discover their inner strength. It sent jolts of longing wafting through me, wishing I had this chance growing up. Maybe it's not too late. I just need to learn now. For myself, not for anyone or anything. This is just me now against the world, whether I like it or not. It has always been. No one cares about me and if I am waiting for someone to, I might end up dying faster than I had anticipated. The wo

    He cocked his brow to the top of his head, picked up the glass containing a brown substance on the table I hadn't noticed till now, and took a long swig as if I hadn't just dropped a bombshell on him. Is that how he is going to react? No fret, no fury? Nothing? My heart broke. So he truly wanted it? He brought me from my pack to this place for nothing. Just to mock our bond and destroy something so sanctified that the goddess has ordered. The tears that has been threatening were trying to force their way out, but I quickly looked down and willed it back. I am not going to cry for any man anymore. I had already thought about this and know it's for the best. I would rather be without a mate than with one who didn't want me for me but because I might have managed to win a competition to become his trophy Luna.Squaring my shoulders I looked up, expecting him to reject me immediately so I can go on to ask him for a favor concerning my housing, but he wasn't upcoming with it. He was stil

    It was raining heavily when we came back from the training camp. Just as I envisaged, Nathan dropped me off in front of the house and told me he was going back to the border to see how things were going there.I wanted to beg him not to leave but knowing he has a duty to uphold which would be unfair of me to stop him, I simply nodded and accepted my ugly fate before sneaking my way into the house. I rushed upstairs two at a time, aiming to reach my room on time and hide away, hoping the Alpha doesn't figure out that I have returned from my outing. I succeeded, went to take my bath, and changed into the evening gown that I found hanging on the vanity chair_ meaning Anna had come to my room to check on me. I felt bad I haven’t spent much time with her recently and wished I could. But I needed this training so badly. I needed to become better. I needed to focus on something else that didn’t have to do with Scott or his mother’s stupid idea of competing for the Luna position. I was ab

    "A proper Luna is always mindful of the time, especially one that wishes to have the keep up and running effectively with avoidable hitchbacks..." The statement from Theresa was cut to the chase and aimed at me. I flinched back, still dawdling by the door. What in moon's name possessed me to wake up this late? It was one thing that I wasn't favored much in this crowd, then I have to pull off this stunt of bringing the attention to myself. Now Theresa would think I was being deviant and irresponsible while Ashley is the serious one. "Get seated, Emma. I won't tolerate this foolhardy behavior next time. Be warned," she warned and I walked to the nearest couch to plop down."Luna, I thought she would be punished? Why should she be here__""Keep quiet, Ashley..." I caught the cold regard she gave Ashley who blanched in her couch and quickly recovered, and when theresa looked away, gave me a condescending bird's eye.l only returned her gaze, with a soft one, within me having a good lau

    I stayed with my son for a while plying with him while the party went on downstairs. Part of me bought Scott was going to come after me due to the manner I left the party. That was part of me, but the other part knew he wouldn’t. After all I asked him to give me time. It was disappointing he wasn’t fighting for me. Taylor soon fell asleep and I kissed his forehead and decided to go to my room and pick my planning book. I still had a lot to do. When I was walking down the hall, something got my attention. A man.Like a drop-dead gorgeous man got my attention. He stepped into the hall, the automatic doors sliding close as he came in, his eyes washing over me in a sinful way. A very sinful way.I stood there one of my feet on the stairwell, the other one down as I stared at the man as he drew close, my eyes taking in every one of his adorable features His shoulders were broad, more like herculean massive_ fitted into a three-piece dark suit, his face stretched in what I would term a

    “I thought you said you forgave me?” Those were his words the last time we met after the fight. “Yes, but I need time,” I had replied. “You don’t expect me to just believe you when you said the child she carries is not yours. I need time, Scott.” I didn’t look him in the eyes because I didn’t want to fall for his charm. “How much time,” he’s asked.“As much time as possible.” “I will be away the .” I looked up at him. He shrugged. “I can’t bear living under the same roof with you and not being able to come close to you, Emma. I can’t.”I nodded and looked away. “And our son?”“He would be fine. He is an Alpha.” the words nudged at my heart. Tears pulled in my eyes which I forced myself to keep in. I had to do this for me. “Thank you.”“For what?” He queried.“For allowing your sister and Liam to be together.”“I did it for you.”“I know,” I nearly went to him then. “Which is why I am grateful . They’re meant to be.”Those were our last words. And since then, all I want now is to be

    "Did you hear anything I just said?" I jolted back from my thought and blinked up at the fair-haired woman, realizing I had drifted while she was still talking, "Huh?" the words flew out before I could stop them. My eyes dilated in chagrin, one of my hands flew to my mouth before rapidly flapping down on my lap, my eyes scooting between her and Ashley who had a repellent look on her face at me.Somehow since the horrendous announcement, the packhouse has become her second home. Urgh!To be honest ever since she dropped the bombshell about the pregnancy and knowing that that would determine the Luna position, I lost concentration. I have been raking my head what in the world this is about. Maybe their own sophisticated method of depriving me of something that the kind goddess has so naturally handed to me.Who competes to be with their mate? And even if you have to compete, it now has to be against someone that come the next life, you ain't likely to win against. Great! What did I te
