HILDA'S POVEver since my parents sent me away from the pack house because I seduced Alpha Moses, my hatred for her has increased tenfold.It was hard to live with the thought that I was being punished because of her. But then knowing that Alpha Moses had moved her to the pack slave's quarters gave me a little bit of peace; at least, I knew that wherever she was, she was suffering twice as much as I was.But I was very disappointed when I found out that she turned out to be Alpha Moses's fated mate, and not just that she had even been allowed to return to the pack house. I could not stand the thought of that.It got even worse after I returned to the pack house and heard my parents making plans to visit Matilda and ask for her forgiveness and also settle the differences they had with her. I was enraged when I heard that.Matilda's life was becoming perfect all of a sudden, and here I was, stuck with an unwanted pregnancy that I was unable to abort, and also automatically stuck with so
MATILDA'S POVI managed to stand up on my feet after crying my eyes out. I needed to stop being weak.I started pacing around the hospital room with my weak leg, limping.The door suddenly opened, and I thought it was Grandmother coming back into the room. I turned around to see Eva with a droopy body."Matilda!" she cried. Her lip quivered as she ran towards me, wrapping her hands around my body.We both hugged each other tightly and cried on each other's shoulders."How are you doing, Matilda? Thank Goddess you are finally awake." She said, as she disengaged from the hug and looked all over my body, her bottom lip jutting out.She burst into tears as she looked all over my body."I'm so sorry, Matilda." She said, sobbing again. "It's all my fault that all of these happened to you. I'm so sorry. Please forgive me."Her hand was on my waist, and she slowly led me to the bed and made me sit on the bed while looking at my weak leg.Tears dropped from her eyes like a run."It's not your
MOSES'S POVI woke up the next morning to feel a soft and warm body close to me. It had been such a distressful night for me and feeling the warm body beside me did much to brighten my mood.I let out a smile, I was glad Matilda had finally come around. And I immediately resolved within myself to never hurt her again no matter what, and I would always trust her.I put my arms around her body with my eyes still closed and she snuggled against my chest, but then the smell felt different but I had no idea why.I slowly opened my eyes so I would look into her eyes and apologize one more time for what I did to her. But then I was shocked when I opened my eyes to see the person lying beside me.Instead of the innocent Matilda whom I had expected to be beside me, it was the cunning and quick-witted Sara who was lying naked and snuggled against me. I stared at her wide-eyed and immediately sat up on the bed only to realize that I was also completely naked."How did this happen?" I was confuse
MATILDA'S POVIt's been two weeks since I left Alpha Moses's chamber and returned to my old chamber.Although I no longer stayed with Alpha Moses, I made sure to visit grandmother in her chamber every day. But while at it, I also tried as much as I could to completely avoid Alpha Moses.He had tried making me talk to him several times, but I turned him down. He could go ahead and talk to Sara for all I care.One evening, while I was going to my grandmother's chamber to check on her, Alpha Moses was coming out of her room at the exact time.I tried to ignore him as usual and walked into my grandmother's room, but he held my hand."Matilda, for how long will you keep avoiding me like this?""Let go of my hand immediately," I said coldly, but he kept holding onto me."Matilda, you have to stop doing this.""I said let go of me!" I said it even more coldly this time and pulled my hand forcefully away from his before walking into my grandmother's room.After spending time with my grandmot
MATILDA'S POVI stood there staring at Sara with my fists clenched as she rubbed her stomach with a mischievous smile on her face."It seems like you are having a hard time guessing who the father of my baby is." She said it in a mocking voice.She lowered her eyes, looked at my clenched fists, and then let out a mocking laughter. She was trying to get on my nerves."It should be something very easy to guess, Matilda, at least for you. Oh! I forgot you were dumb. My bad. If not, this would have been easy."I swallowed hard, hoping it wasn't what I was thinking."Well, I think I should save you from the pain of guessing and just tell you who it is. She flipped her hair and adjusted her dress. "As you should have guessed correctly, the father of my unborn child is no one else but Alpha Moses."My heart dropped the moment she said that.Well, there was no reason to be surprised; she had been sleeping with him all along. He just kept on showing me, with any slight chance he got, that I me
MATILDA'S POV The moment I slumped in the pack's hospital, Kelvin carried me in his arms before Alpha Moses could get to me and headed toward my chamber.He laid me down on the bed gently when we got to my room."Are you okay, Matilda? He asked, his eyes focused on me worriedly, and I nodded.I tried to talk to Sapphira to ask her if she knew why I collapsed after healing grandmother, but she was also weak, just like me, whimpering in pain."I had no idea how I suddenly turned weak," I said to Kelvin, who was still hovering over me, trying to check if I had any serious injuries.Leah, one of my maids, rushed in a while later with a bowl of water and a towel and started using them to wipe my face and body."How about grandmother? Does she feel better now? I asked Leah, who was using a wet towel on my face."She is awake now, and she is asking after you."I felt happy and relieved hearing that, at least, even though I was weak after healing her, I was still able to heal her. I don't kn
MATILDA'S POVWhen I woke up that fateful morning, I decided to go check on grandmother in the hospital again. She had been there for two days now, and I was getting a bit bothered about her condition.She had fallen asleep when I was there last night, and Luxian said she was still weak.Why was she still weak even after I healed her the other day? Is it that my power is not that effective in healing her completely?When I got to the hospital, my grandmother was still lying weak on the hospital bed. I could hardly tell if she was sleeping or awake, but I sat by her bed and spoke to her all while wiping her face and neck with a towel dipped in cold water.I looked closely into her face, hoping that she would at least say a word to me, but she stayed quiet."Grandmother, I think it's high time I take my future into my own hands. I said, taking her palm and caressing it softly. "I want to leave this pack for good and return to my father's pack, but I just can't leave here when you are st
MATILDA'S POVI felt the eyes of all the pack members who had gathered at the training ground watching me as I walked back to my chamber.Isn't this funny? Just a few months ago, I had stayed here, and I was always at the center of most of the fights going on in the pack. I was always creating scenes.Becoming a nuisance, I guess.I shifted back to my human form the moment I got in front of my chamber and walked in. I felt Eva hug me from behind, laughing really hard."You know what, Matilda? I was blessed the day I met you, and I really love how you dealt with those wolves; at least next time they would know who to challenge." She laughed.I laughed out loud too. "But come to think of it, Eva, all of these would not have been possible without you.""Oh! Please." Eva waved her hand, laughing."You know, Eva, Sapphira seemed to have developed a soft spot for Bax; I did not expect her to leave when she saw him. It's really a great surprise." I said I felt impressed, and we both laughed
