Alexander's POV...

Having conversations that revolve around personal hurts and betrayal makes my head ache. I had to swallow my pride and plead with Edwina over dinner. She had a point. Just because she has more mind to forgive and let go of grudges doesn't make her foolish or less smart than the rest of us.

I sighed as I flipped through the files on my table. I had decided against retiring to bed immediately, spending some time in the study. Edwina had seemed to have a long day and was too tired to keep up with me after she ate her dinner.

I was planning to work on some stuff on my laptop when Caleb called, saying Carlos had something important to share.

Times without number, I had warned that brute not to bring pack matters to me late at night. But then, he said it was very important, and I needed to hear it. Not like he knew what Carlos had to say.

The door clicked open, and I looked up to see Caleb's face contorted in a horrible shape. A child would see him and cry to his or her m

    Edwina's POV..."I can't seem to understand Caleb. He goes from being friendly at one point to acting all protective like a mother hen in one minute." Becca complained as she arranged the clothes in my closet.It was one of those days I just loved to laze around and do nothing but listen to gossip from Becca or complaints like she was doing at the moment. I had woken up to a cold bed.Xander had headed out early yet again, and I had forgotten to ask him how the prisoners' training was coming up. Thinking back to last night, it felt as if I was being dramatic.If I must admit, Xander is a good and very lenient person. I couldn't even do as much as pout my discomfort when I was with Ben. I had to act like it was all fine, and I had no problem being treated like shit.The thoughts had been on my mind when I woke up, and I wanted to tell him how sorry I was. But he had gone off before I could even blink my eyes.I sat up on my elbow to get myself back into the present time. "What exactly

    Edwina's POV...It felt like I would convulse if I didn't get to sit and have some water. My blood pressure was too high to curtail the details of my environment."Where is my sister?" I screamed out again, almost losing a step.Becca was behind, luckily to hold me still."Calm down Luna. She is being attended to by the theta."Not listening to whatever she had to say, I wiggled myself out of her hold and barged into the room. Sonia laid down, looking so pale with a bandage wrapped around her right foot.The theta was running a check on her, and sensing my presence, she turned to me.Bowing lightly, she held a small smile. "Good day, dear Luna." Seeing my eyes going back and forth between her and my sister, she smiled a bit wider."You don't have to worry, Luna. It's just a sprain; she would be fine. Might take a week or two.""How is the baby?" I asked, my heart in a panic mode."Very fine. Pubs are very strong and exhibit such traits right from the belly. And moreover, her wolf is q

    Authors POV...Excitement surged through her as she made her way into the hotel foyer. She had never seen anything like it before.It felt so good to be free and able to do whatever she wanted. It had taken her a whole lot of time and endurance to get to where she was. The need to be like every other girl her age nagged at her subconscious every night and day.Finally, she was here! Athena giggled excitedly as she got in front of the receptionist."Hello, good day. Welcome to Zenith hotel and resort. How may I be of help today?" The beautiful, dimpled receptionist smiled warmly at her."I have an appointment with the occupant in the room..." She paused as she searched through her phone for the room number. "Yes, room 506, please.""Room 506." The receptionist repeated, clicking away on her keyboard. "Give me just a minute to affirm from the occupant." She said.The line rang, and the receiver came alive, "good day, sir. I hope you are enjoying our service. Sorry to be of bother, a you

    Authors POV...Athena kept peeping through her purse as she took the ride back to the pack house. She had been expecting a substantial amount of money, but not this much. The man must be a maniac, obviously. He had fucked her like a beast and handed her such a huge amount like it was just a piece of paper.She definitely would go back to him again; he had specifically asked for her contact. Which wasn't so; she had been told people like him don't fuck the same person twice. It's definitely her lucky day.Her mother's sickness was a blessing in disguise to her. She was definitely going to be some ten thousand rich by the end of the month.Just as she got closer to the pack house, she began to panic as to what she should do. Earlier today, she had thought of a way to get out of the pack house without being bothered. After calculating her outing to be just about one hour with no intent to spite, she had added a few doses of sleeping pills into her mistress milk.It was necessary for her

    Edwina's POV...Exhaustion reeked through the whole of my body as I threw myself into the bed. Spending the whole day next to Sonia was one hell of a draining job. I really appreciate the caretakers and helpers who stay by sick people.My back aches badly. I had been sitting all day, ensuring that she didn't move her leg too much and end up straining it. Becca had offered to sit in place, but I had declined. And also, I told Athena to rest for the day since she was all out looking after her sick mother.I hoped to the moon goddess that my nephew or niece was doing safely. I must admit I was really scared about something going wrong with them.Now to the question that has been lingering in my mind all day? Shouldn't I try to birth a child now? Ben had put me on a contraceptive pill to prevent me from carrying his child, as the fear of me birthing a child with no wolf scared him so much.I wonder if Xander also thought so of me, even though I don't feel that attached to him yet. I don't

    Edwina's POV.....My heart was in my mouth as my hands touched the doorknob. I prayed briefly to the goddess that my ass doesn't get roasted for infidelity. Opening the door, I almost fell to the ground in gratitude when Becca was the one at the door.She looked worried, "you okay, Luna? You look like you have seen a ghost or something. Is everything fine?"Letting out a relieving breath, I strolled weakly to the bed. The robe I adorned hurriedly had been worn wrongly.Becca still had an unconvinced look on her face. She thought something was actually wrong."Stop worrying, Becca. I'm fine. Is there something you need to tell me?" I asked her.Nodding her head, "yes, please. The alpha has been trying to reach you on your line. But you weren't picking up; he got worried and called me. I had to explain to him how your day had been. So, we guessed you might be asleep. I just thought to come to check on you real quick.""That's so thoughtful of you, Becca. Thank you. Did he tell you why h

    Alexander's POV...Times like this are when I start to ask myself why I chose to be an alpha instead of just living an ordinary life like every other wolf in the pack. Coupled with the fact that my legs were cramped, I had to stay put in the wheelchair. I needed to stretch them so badly, but I haven't been alone in like a minute.At the same time, I couldn't complain; it's nice being an Alpha.The four of us, Caleb, Carlos, Jason, and I, had decided to invite Carlos's hacker buddy over to help out with our plans in full gear. Working on it overnight seemed like the best time to do so since we didn't want to raise any suspicion.So far, the prisoners have gotten to the level at which they can fight off an enemy; that was just about enough to help protect the pack from the attacks of Ben and his counterparts.The stunt-looking guy said to be called Derek, seems not to be much of a talker. After mouthing some greetings, he had set to work, arranging his instruments.I had tried calling E

    Alexander's POV...I checked my wristwatch, which was beginning to itch badly. It was 3am in the morning. I looked at the other occupants in the room; they had their heads hanging in between chairs, dozing off. Except for Derek, though, that little man looked wide awake and refreshed. I wanted to ask if he was a night owl.I had dozed off a bit too, but my mind was too preoccupied to let sleep rule over me."Bingo!" Derek yelled out, startling not just me but almost making the other three run off their chairs.They looked hilarious, warriors who couldn't hold themselves down, all in the name of sleep."What the hell, man!" Carlos whined in his sleepy voice. "Could you not yell like that? I almost sprained my neck just now.""Keep your tone leveled," Jason added.The both of them seemed really upset for being woken up unexpectedly. But, as usual, Caleb looked unfazed; he seemed so relaxed one would ask again if he ever dozed off a few minutes ago.Derek chewed on a fry. I had a feeling

    Authors POV...Becca searched around the kitchen uncomfortably, trying not to meet Caleb's eyes. It was just as Ramona had said; he looked terrible. His eyes obviously were sleep deprived. She had been trying her best to avoid him all week, and it worked. Becca didn't get to see him, just as she had wished.Watching her every move, Caleb walked towards the kitchen island, taking Ramona's seat. He sighed in exhaustion."Until when would you keep doing this?" He asked, holding his head together with his hands.She gulped hard, toying with her fingers. "did you know about Ramona coming?""How was I supposed to know? I haven't spoken to her in weeks. I was surprised myself to see her here."Searching his eyes for any form of lie or pretence, Becca saw the naivety in his eyes. It was obvious Caleb had no idea of Ramona's coming. She inhaled and exhaled at the same time, trying to steady her breath.It wasn't worth brooding on too much; Becca herself was tired of being so far away from him.

    Authors POV...Ramona searched around the crowd, trying to see if she would get a hold of Becca, but she seemed to disappear at every chance she got to approach her. One thing about the gathering of night howlers is how merry they all become and how they know how to party till the day ends. Especially since the alpha had finally gotten back to his feet. Annoyed at how hard it was becoming, Ramona made her way towards the podium area to ask a guard where Becca was. The guard directed her to the kitchen.Her heels clattered against the hallways as she manoeuvred her way around the pack house. Getting into the kitchen, Becca was there as she had been told. Standing at the edge of the kitchen was Becca, who seemed so lost in her thoughts. Ramona bit her lip really hard; she felt so guilty.For the past three weeks, Ramona had forced her way into Caleb's home to have him bend to her wheel. Unfortunately, Caleb seems to be much more determined than she was to not give in to her advances.Ev

    Edwina's POV...For what seemed like a lifetime, he didn't say a word. I was getting bothered, and my standing didn't feel good, considering my position. I would like to think that Xander reads my mind. Almost in a split second, he had dusted a chair that sprouted out from among the piles of antiques in the space and had me seated on it.I gulped nervously, feeling bad for thinking ill of him. "Xander..."He held a hand up, "please let me finish." He pleaded."Okay." I let out in a whisper.Still standing, Xander had his back turned to me, obviously trying to hide the tears in his eyes. "over the years, as I grew, I leaned on Ben as he was the only person really close to me. I felt safe trusting him with all of me. Also, the idea of family grew within me so much. I couldn't wait to have a Luna. When I did come of age, I pleaded hard with the moon goddess to show me my desired mate. When she showed you to me, I was too greedy and thought I was doing it for the sake of the pack. Eventua

    Edwina's POV...I stomped my foot through the hallway in annoyance, indecisive as to why my emotions were spluttering all over the place. I could blame it on pregnancy, knowing quite well it wasn't just about that.Tears laced my eyes as I bounced off the walls. Seeing him stand in all of his glory, like the Greek god most books describe, was overwhelming. In all truth, Xander is a good-looking man. Every of his body structure, from the chiselled jawline to his legs, made my clit ache.I was wet beyond measure, and if he slipped right inside me this minute, I was sure to orgasm right on the spot. I feel angry at myself for having such thoughts, considering how much he had disregarded me. But what to do when I miss him so much? I ache for his touch every night, and my urges had mounted since I got pregnant.Probably, just maybe, I would have held back on my sexually consumed thoughts if he wasn't looking so much like a snack. It's been a month, and I must say every day is more than ten

    Alexander's POV...I shifted uncomfortably in the wheelchair, eager to stand up and not have to deal with the facade I had been living in anymore. Glancing to my side, I tried to keep eye contact with Edwina. It was obvious she was doing everything she could to avoid my ears. A week after she found out about my true disabled state, I tried to get on her good book, but she never paid me any mind.I had thought coming out to the pack members would be easy, as I had informed Caleb to arrange the process after a week when I might have gotten back with Edwina. To my disappointment, three weeks went by with myself and Caleb wallowing in self-pity and none of our women paying us any mind. For myself and Edwina, we have been going back and forth on her forgiving me.But she had been really adamant about not wanting to talk to me. The last time I tried to reach out to her, she had told me it would take her a very long time to accept the new me, as she had put it. Sounds frustrating, right? I m

    Edwina's POV...I rolled to the side of the bed, trying to find a comfortable side of the bed to rest in, but I couldn't. I had been awake since about seven am, but I couldn't find myself standing up from the bed. I just wanted to remain there, most especially to avoid seeing Xander. At the same time, I was aching badly for food and a nice cup of tea. My baby and I had awoken with a craving for food.Turning around to get a hold of my phone, I attempted to dial Becca when there came a knock on the door. As I got off the bed reluctantly to open it, I hoped it wouldn't be Xander. Nothing has prepared me for such a discussion this morning.Opening it, I found Becca by the door with a platter of food. "Oh my goodness, Becca! You are godsent." I muttered, opening the door widely.My eyes glazed at the sumptuous sight of the breakfast of bacon, toast, scrambled egg, sausage, some freshly made juice, and a cup of tea to cap it all."How in the world did you do this? Do you live in my mind?"

    Authors POV...Caleb scoffed in irritation as he threw daggers at Ramona with his eyes. It had been hard for him to get over how low she had stooped to get back at him. Having her appear in his home looking all relaxed made him boil terribly. He had just taken a pill to suppress the headache threatening to split his head. The moment his eyes landed on Ramona, it seemed to be coming back with full force."Answer the fucking question. Why are you here?" Caleb blurted again, his eyes catching sight of Xander wheeling himself towards his room.Ramona sat with gait, staring at Caleb with a straight face. She had no intention of backing away from fighting for his attention. She had known the kind of ruckus the video and document she had sent to Becca would cause. However, she was less bothered about it and couldn't care less about what anyone thought of her. She wants a home with Caleb and being Ramona, there is no way she would let it go that easily without a fight.Becca was way older tha

    Alexander's POV...Eyeballing his ass out, I turned my back to him, trying to wash up the used cups. One thing I loved to do was handle my chores. Before I got confined to the wheelchair, I used to swing by Ben's place to crash after a long day at work. We end up cooking and washing up ourselves. They were sweet memorable moments. I wanted to distract myself from responding to Caleb, or should I say, I was trying to gather my thoughts."Why aren't you saying anything?" He pressed on, raising his head fully now."Can you not." I inhaled deeply, scratching the back of my head. "I hope you haven't taken my advice of keeping something from your woman because I think that has cost me my small family."Caleb snorted, mumbling under his breath. "guess that's too late. But tell me, what happened?""Edwina saw me on my feet," I told him.He started with a perplexed look on his face, "Saw you on your feet? How did that happen?"I rolled my eyes, sitting my butt on a stool. I sighed, "so, yester

    Alexander's POV...Woke up to a cold side of the bed. The bags underneath my eyes were enough to act as an airbag during an accident. They were so heavy it felt like my eyes were under pressure.I had waited up for Edwina to return to the room, but it was obvious that wouldn't be happening. I was surprised to find out when I drifted off to sleep, though.My mind wobbled, and all I wanted was to stick to the bed and never have to come out of the room. Different emotions flowed through me. Now that Edwina knows my truth, I feel compelled to let the pack members know too. Truth is, judging by Edwina's reaction, I'm really scared the pack members, too, would be disappointed.I groaned inwardly while pulling at my hair. I can't believe this shit is happening right now; I thought everything was falling into place, and I would show myself to my woman at the right time. I can tell she hates me now and compares me to that fucking Ben. Now I have stooped so low to cursing the dead. I might go b
