Edwina's POV...Staring dolled-eyed at the newborn, I was beyond mesmerized at her sight. Sonia looked more smitten than I was, even as they took her to the bathroom to wash up. The look on her face was priceless. My sister is finally a mother."It's a baby girl!" The theta announced. But my ears weren't even working anymore; those beautiful eyes got me roped in."She looks so beautiful." Becca sniffed behind me.It was obvious she had been crying. It turns out it wasn't just me. The theta placed the newborn cub in Sonia's hands as she rested on the bed after getting cleaned up."Come carry her, Edwina," Sonia called out to me.I practically ran to her at the invitation. "You want me to?" I asked, sitting with caution next to her.Sonia smiled brightly, handing the child over to me carefully. "Here you go."She felt so light in my arms I was almost scared she would fall off my hands."What would you like to name her?" Sonia inquired next to me. I almost fell off the bed."Really?" I w
Authors POV...Athena gripped tightly at the end of her phone tip, squeaking in excitement. John was on the line with her. She had stepped out briefly from the room after attending to her mistress, who was fast asleep. Witnessing Sonia birth her child felt like a gift to her, as it was the most beautiful thing she had ever witnessed.All the fears that gripped her by the chest as she watched Sonia scream in pain dissipated the moment the little girl arrived.Taking her tired self to her room, they had been awake since the early morning.Her mistress's water broke just as the sun rose, and Athena had been kept on her toes till the arrival of the child.Athena was just about to fall asleep when her phone rang. Her heart skipped a bit at the look of his name showing clearly on her phone screen."Hey." She whispered into the receiver.John shifted on the bed he sat on as her voice seeped into his ears from the other line. "How are you doing?""I'm fine," Athena responded as she stretched
Alexander's POV...I rubbed at my neck as I checked my wristwatch to realize that the time was barely past noon. What time exactly did I get to work? I could feel exhaustion reeking through every of my pores. For fucks sake, why the hell is the time so slow?A different form of hunger hit the pit of my belly. I could swallow a whole horse right now if given a chance to. Deciding to eat out an early lunch, I picked up the phone and dialled Ramona. The line hadn't rung when I heard a knock on the door. For the sake of my sanity, I really do hope whoever was at the door has a good enough reason to do so."Come in!" I didn't sound too enthusiastic about the invite.The door opened, giving way to Carlos and Jason, both of them holding some bag packs in hand. I almost wailed. I thought I had seen about enough of these guys today. Don't they get tired of seeing my face? I know I am good-looking, and all, but their constant visits might make the beauty fade.I would love to blurt out all this
Alexander's POV...At Ramona's announcement, I wasn't too certain about how I was supposed to react to that. It took her time to catch the look on my face as she mouthed a hurried sorry and walked back out. Every one of the men tried looking at every other place to distract themselves from glancing at me.I hate how it seems like they are all working on eggshells around me. Maybe I wasn't supposed to look the way I did, but it was unintentional. Seems like my mind worked on its own.When Caleb decided to break the silence in the room, I couldn't be more grateful. "Let's continue with the talks, please."Carlos gulped hard before talking again. You would think he lost track of what he was to do. To my annoyance, he kept searching around for nothing in particular."What the hell, man!" Jason whispered at him.I turned away, the food I had eaten turned sour in my mouth. I wouldn't blame Carlos for looking so confused; we went from zero to a thousand a bit too quick.Clearing his throat,
Author's POV...Sonia stared at her little piece of treasure again. Ever since she woke up, got checked and took her necessary vitamins, her eyes hadn't left Star for a minute. She looked so beautiful and amazing.Holding out her little hand as she slept, Sonia felt a teardrop on her daughter's shawl. Now she understood the feeling their mother must have had when she birthed Edwina. Why she was always so protective of Edwina. There was no way she would let any harm befall Star. She would rather fight till her last breath.Sonia felt ashamed of herself and their father for neglecting Edwina when all she needed was love from them. Whether Star had a wolf or not, Sonia would never let anyone come close to harming her. All she wants at the moment is to protect her daughter.She checked the time by the bed stand and hoped Edwina would come again. Her sister had become a huge part of her that she always looked out for the time she would come by. There was no denying that Edwina already love
Authors POV...John grinned in satisfaction at the fear in Sonia's eyes. He could see her eyes searching the room for an escape or probably a tool to use against him.Athena had kept her promise to let him in after a bout of hot sex that made him shiver. She definitely had been yearning for him and didn't hesitate to let him feel it from the drip of her pussy. The mere thought of it had him licking his lips.Sonia stared in disgust and fear. She would have never thought the day would eventually come when her father, who had been tagged as dead after such a long while, would show his face. And today, of all days when she is meant to stay happy and grateful for the turnout of things."Hey, there, lovely daughter," John muttered, still holding up the cynical grin.A vicious scream bobbed in Sonia's throat as she heard his voice. She wanted to believe it was just her illusion, but he was standing right in front of her in the flesh. Trying hard to scream, it seemed like something had seize
Authors POV...Athena wondered why John wasn't picking up her calls; he had only said he would use about twenty minutes or less. Her skin pricked at the thought of the sex they had just had before he left to see Sonia. It was the most intense sex she had ever had.She was practically screaming her lungs out, not caring that anyone around would hear her.She had let John in through the secret back door most maids use to sneak out of the packhouse. And as promised, he had brought the money and his dick along, fully prepared to make her feel good. The sex had been so wild that she couldn't resist the sleep that eluded her after her bath.All Athena could remember was John telling her he wouldn't take long to return. She thought that maybe she could make him stay for the rest of the night since everyone in the packhouse was busy with jubilation at the newborn's arrival.She woke up about twenty minutes later, it was a brief sleep but the best she had ever had. When she couldn't get throug
Alexander's POV..."Edwina!" I yelled out the moment my Luna slumped against the hard floor.My whole body was still paralyzed with shock. I am still trying my hardest to wrap my head around it. Running towards Edwina, I barked out for the infirmary to be called.I asked Caleb to lift her up to the bed until my eyes caught sight of the maid carrying a hysteric-looking Star. It then dawned on me that some shit had really gone down."Stay with me, baby." I patted Edwina's cheek consciously, trying to revive her, even when I wasn't sure about what I was doing.In a few seconds, I bypassed the theta herself as she checked for a pulse, asking for Edwina to be taken out of the room first.I had heard some situations occur where the new mum might feel dizzy and lose so much blood, which could result in death. But it seemed uncertain in Sonia's case since the theta had been assured that she was just fine. And not to brag, but the night howlers pack has the best of hands in terms of medical ca
