**Xavier's POV***From the moment Lisa's wolf began to act restless, I knew there was something wrong. Just that I never knew it was her wolf calling her mate. Was the goddess kidding me right now? How on earth did she bring another mate for Melissa when I'm still mated to her. She's carrying my child, for goodness’ sake!”“Xavier, please don't!”I quickly turned around towards my mate only to see her worried expression. She was worried about him? Why? Would she be worried about a man she just met? “He's not your mate. I refuse him to be your mate!”“Xavier, please calm down. Let's talk this through,” Badmos said, coming in between the new mate and I.“You shouldn't fight. There's an explanation for this,” the witch stated. “What kind of explanation is it? I'm dying to know?”“Listen, I just got a revelation. We are all aware that Melissa is a hybrid. And she's the first of her kind. For this reason, she is gifted with two mates, who happen to be a werewolf and a warlock.”“This ma
***Melissa's POV***While I was in the coven of the witches Clan, I was torn between my mates. Xavier rarely ever left my side, and I was okay with it. It's just that, since he was always by my side, it made it impossible for my other mate to come close to me. There are so many things I want to hear from him. My wolf longed for him, and yet he couldn't come close. Every so often I see him hover around the door while staring at me. All of this made me sad. I was given my room and placed on bed rest while all this was going on. The only time Xavier left my side was when he wanted to race his wolf. This was one of the days he went into the woods to race his wolf. I was left alone in the room. I couldn't sleep because I was worried. Just then, I heard a knock on the door. At the same time, the familiar scent of wild incense wafted my nostrils. This made my heart skip at once. It was almost nightfall, what was he doing here? My dad and witch Emilia had been working together to make me t
***Xavier's POV***It's been a week ever since I've been in the witch's clan. I would say the people are quite accommodating, and I would also say this is because of Lord Badmos. Though on my end, there's nowhere I want to be rather than my home, and that home is nowhere else but with Melissa. The other mate constantly tries to find the slightest opportunity to come near Melissa. For this reason, I canceled my trip back to my pack. I had earlier planned to go back to the pack to attend some pack matters and visit Melissa regularly. But when I discovered that the so-called mate in question is trying to do everything possible to get close to Melissa, I changed my mind instantly and decided to stay back until she gave birth. But then, I couldn't just leave the Pack without giving instructions. For this reason, I always made sure I sent my beta a message each time I went into the woods. As usual, I raced my Wolff back to the witch's coven, after delivering my message to Drake. Melis
**Xavier's POV***After listening to all Arnold said, I had every reason to believe that all what he just said were all lies. “You are such a devious liar!” I lashed out in anger. “Calm down, Xavier. I don't think Arnold's way is wrong. You should take this on good fate, and that is the fact that Arnold will surely help Melissa overcome her condition. “Witch, Emilia, these are all lies. He'll do anything to get close to Melissa, why can't you tell?”“Xavier, if getting close to her is all Arnold needed to do to make Melissa feel better, don't you think it's worth trying. I know you're way too Jealous to let anyone comes near, Melissa, especially when she's carrying your child. I've heard cases about the Jealousy of the Werewolves and trust me when I say, I'm not judging you. But you've got to be reasonable about this, Alpha.”I could tell that at this point, I was acting all selfish. This was Lisa's life we are talking about. Though I'm terribly Jealous and can't stand near her, I
**Melissa's POV**I woke up in a jolt and quickly looked around my environment. To my greatest surprise, I found myself in a strange room, all full of warmth. What's going on?I looked down at myself, and I discovered strange hands I've never seen before wrapped around me. What the fuck is this!” I was about to panic when the familiar Scent spread across my nostrils. I froze that instant. There's no way this could have been possible. There must be something wrong somewhere. I managed to turn around only to see Arnold sleeping with his eyes closed. I took time to admire his features. He was damn handsome that a smile spread across my face. I wonder why the goddess decided to give me a second mate. Was it for this? I no longer feel cramps, only stomach. Click this be because of him. Way before I passed out, I remember he told me he could actually help me. But before that could happen, I remembered Xavier came and was very furious. Moreover, I remember I was trying to separate when
***Melissa's POV***“I had to, they were stressing the life out of me.”“You did good by telling them to leave. I think they'll only come around when you refuse to see them for like a week. Especially Xavier, goodness!”“That's what I intend to do to them. They barely listen to me, forgetting the fact that I'm the one who's most affected here.”“You're right, child. You know, l what, let's forget about those grown men. I'm excited to see you awake. You have no idea just how worried I and your father were when you became unconscious.”“Well, it's all thanks to my mate. I'm glad I don't feel pain anymore.”“Now this is so good to hear. You have no idea just how worried you got us, you know. I thought it would take a lot of effort to bring back your consciousness. But we all had hope again when Arnold told us about his method. I had no idea it would be this effective.”“Yes, it is effective, and I'm so glad to be alive and well.”“I'm so glad you're awake as well. Badmos will be over the
***Xavier's POV***It's been a month without my mate, and there's nothing separating me from a wolf that was about to go feral. I don't know how she was able to do it without me in her life for this past month, but I'm dying slowly. If I had known this would be the consequences of my jealousy, I never would have dared to get jealous. This is all my fault. I shouldn't have been too jealous, maybe then I wouldn't be suffering this torment of longing. Just to get on Melissa's good side, I had no choice but to talk things out with Arnold. Good thing Lord Badmos was able to convince me about what to do. Meanwhile, I've been going back and forth from my pack to the witch's coven. Good thing I saw her the moment I came back from the Vulcan pack. In excitement, I approached her. “Love, are you still mad at me?” I asked, though still very skeptical of what her answers would be at this point. Just then, she turned around to face me. My heart skipped when I saw a smile on her face. “Goodne
***Melissa's POV***Ever since Xavier left for the pack, I've been apprehensive. Though we talk through the mind every often, but it still wasn't enough. I could see the fight in my vision. Though in all of my visions, Xavier always won the battle. That was the only reason why I was so worried, else I'm not sure if I ever would have been able to take it at all. I walked around the house thinking about what Xavier might be going through when Arnold suddenly showed up in front of me. “I could tell you're still worried about Xavier.”“Yes, I am. The battle has taken so long. It's already been a week since he left. So you think he'll be okay?”“I saw through your visions, and I noticed that he won the battle.”I froze the instant he said the words. “What? You saw through my visions?”“You look surprised. I'm your mate, and that is the only reason I was able to see your visions.”“That's strange. But you never saw through my visions before now. How come you could see through it now?”“
***Melissa's POV***Arnold staggered backwards as he was stabbed. The knife she used was purely made of dark magic. That very instant, I noticed Arnold going pale. “No!” I screamed out in anger at what happened right in front of me. Just then, I force pulled me up from the floor and I couldn't tell how I did it but the next thing I knew, I was standing right in front of the witch whose hands had become bloody with my mate's blood. I gripped her on the neck and pulled her up. “How dare you put a finger on my mate! I swear, I'll never forgive you. You must pay with your life for what you've done to my mate!”That's all it took for me to snap her neck. When I realized the witch had finally been killed, I tossed her to the ground and turned around towards my mate, who was now lying helplessly on the floor with Xavier by his side. Seeing my mate struggling for his life made my heart ache terribly. I felt like I was going to die from the pain. I managed to carry myself to his side. “
***Melissa's POV***“Argh!” I screamed out in pain as the young witch continued to cast her spell. Presently, I had shifted back into my human form as I couldn't bear the immense pain from the burning I felt on my back. Just then, I heard my child scream out. I quickly turned around to see my child who was crying non-stop. If it were to be in another situation, I would have been annoyed at the fact that my child was crying so hard. But currently, I felt relieved that my child was crying because it was an indication that he was alive. The cries of my child suddenly gave me the strength I thought had been drained by the witch. “You think I'm going to let you win? Never!”I struggled to stand up on my feet while the Witch continued to cast her incantations. I wasn't concerned about what she was doing at that moment. Rather, what I was more concerned about was the fact that I had to escape from this coven after finishing off their witch. With the little power left in me, I shit my ey
***Alpha Xavier's POV***Just as I was about to join them to cast the spell, I suddenly felt a sharp pain in my heart, which made me stagger backwards. “Argh!” I heard someone scream, to my shock, it was Arnold. He held on to his chest just like I did. “Arnold, Xavier, what's going on. Why do you both feel the same pain at once?” Emilia asked, confused. “I have no idea, Emilia.”They probably do not know since we are of different tribes, but I know very well what this means. “We need to hurry with whatever spell week is about to carry out. Melissa is in danger. She must have been hurt,” I said in panic. I sat next to Arnold. At this point, I can't afford to hold whatever grudge I have against since we both have one common goal, and that is to find Melissa as soon as possible.I shut my eyes and let Emilia cast the spell, just as she had said she would. In no time, I found myself in the woods. I looked around, but I was alone. Where were Emilia and Arnold? Just then, I realized
**Alpha Xavier's POV***I've searched the woods for two days, yet there was no sign of a single witch. I was beginning to doubt whether what Badmos gave me was effective or not. Of course, it has to be effective. I had to find my child, but I don't even know where to search anymore. “Alpha, Xavier, I'm not sure if we'll be able to find your son this way. I think what we need is a powerful watch who knows the terrain. The orb is probably broken or ineffective.”“I thought so too,” I muttered. “Why don't we go back to the coven to see how things were in the coven?”“No, I can't!”“What? Why not?” Drake asked in surprise. “Listen, I promised my Luna that I was never coming back until I could bring my child with me.”"Of course I was there when you said that, but at this point, you also know that there's no way we can find your son. He's an Infant, where do we even begin to search for an infant.”“My child isn't whom I'm looking for, but the bitch who took my son.”“But there's no such
***Melissa's POV***I stood in front of two ladies. One looked as old as Emilia while the other was as young as I am, though I could tell that she's not as young as I think she is. To worsen it, she's the one carried my child who is now quiet. I wonder if he's doing okay by being silent, or if they used some kind of dark spell to keep him shut. “I'm here now, please give me back my child.”The ladies both looked at one another and laughed out hysterically. “Mother, she's such a naive one. Who would have thought that she'll really come to us so easily.”“Don't talk like that child. She's a mother, so it's only natural that she would do everything to save her child, and this is one thing we lack.”“You're right now. And that is why we must break this goddess forsaken curse!”The moment they mentioned the curse, I was reminded of what Emilia had told me earlier about the curse my grandmother had laid on them. “The curse, huh? I know about this curse. But then, my child has got nothing
**Badmos POV**While in bed, I couldn't sleep because I realized that this wasn't the best way to protect Melissa. I promised Xavier that I was going to watch over her, and the best way I could actually do that is by staying by her side if I have to. This is the only way for her me to fully keep an eye on her. I quickly rolled out of bed and headed to her room. But before then, I stopped at Emilia's. I knocked light in Emilia's door and in a few seconds, Emilia got the door. “Badmos, you're still awake.”“Couldn't sleep. With my grandson missing and Melissa in the terrible state she's in, I can't leave her in such a state, you know.”“You're right. I checked on her a few minutes ago. I think we should both check on her again, just to be certain she's okay.”Emilia and I both went to her door. But then, Emilia both noticed something strange, and that was the lack of a presence in the room. We could both feel it from where she stood. Emilia and I both exchanged quick glances before
**Melissa's POV***Even though I saw no wisps on the way, that didn't stop me from forging her head. I had the belief that no matter what, I'll find my child. After walking for almost an hour without knowing where I was headed, I suddenly noticed a bright light ahead of me. What is that? I increased my walking speed. I couldn't shift into my wolf, as I was too weak to do so. And since I'll be meeting a witch, then I'll have to retain my human form to fight if I have to. My wolf cannot save me from her spell, and I cannot carry out the spell I know as well. The more I walked over to the lights, the farther it looked. This is confusing. How can there be a bright light in the woods that is unattainable . Still, I didn't give up. The will to save my child is way stronger than any thought about giving up. I definitely cannot give up now, I don't care where my child is right now. All I know is that I must save my child as soon as possible.After walking for what seemed like hours, I fina
***Melissa's POV***I could hardly sleep when nightfall came. I worry about my child and my mates. I wonder whether they were doing okay or not. What if something bad had happened to them? Worst still, what if the Witches are more powerful than Xavier and Arnold? Doesn't this mean I'll lose everyone?I tossed in my bed with so much worry in my heart. The door to my room flew open and Emilia showed up. “It's as if I knew you wouldn't be sleeping by this time. “I can't sleep. I'm just too worried, we've tried all the tracking spells we know, but we still can't find them. Doesn't this mean they are more powerful than we are?”“Not at all. They are not as powerful as we are. The only reason it looks difficult to get them is their possession of dark magic. If not for the dark magic they possess, I can assure you that you'll surely get to them. They know they'll be caught, that's why they used the dark spell.”“Can't we use the dark spell too. I mean, since it has come to this point, don'
***Alpha Xavier's POV***“Your child is missing. I have seen it in my visions since three days ago.”That made me stagger backwards. “Wait a minute, I don't think I heard you correctly. What do you mean by my child has gone missing? “ How can he go missing just like that?“I'm sorry, this is hard for you to accept, but I can't lie to you about something like this, you know.”“I still don't get it. Why is my child missing? What happened to my child?” I demanded in rage. “Xavier, calm down. Your child is not dead yet. He's only missing. Presently, your Luna needs you most. Please hurry over to her side.”As soon as Alana said the last words, I bolted out of her room and headed straight to the witch's coven. “Alpha, where are you headed in such a hurry?”Drake asked as he saw me heading out of the pack house. I quickly turned around to face him. “Drake, you must take care of pack matters until my return. I need to attend to something pretty urgent.”“Why do you look panicked? Why don
