Naya's POV "Hey father, are you okay?" My voice cracked a little and I shut my eyes and placed my hand on my chest, resting in the bed as I did that. "Naya. Are you okay? You sound...unwell. Is everything fine? Do you want to come back home?" When my dad's voice came over the phone, I pushed it away from my ear and pushed it against the bed, still shutting my eyes. I started breathing in and out, trying to balance my breathing. I repeated that thrice before raising the phone from the bed. "I just wanted to know if you were fine. That's all." "Did you hear everything I said, Naya? I said that Zach is-" "Yeah, it's fine. Have a good day, dad." I put the phone down and nodded my head at myself before silently cursing myself out. It was just noon and I was already having a bad day. Hissing, I got out of bed and went straight to the bathroom to clean myself up. I didn't know what I wanted to do throughout the day, but sulking in bed while smelling weird wasn't it. Afte
Zach's POV "Um, I don't think I have to see them, do I? I mean, they are just guests. I don't have to see them to inspect. That's totally not necessary, don't worry." My eyes glanced around as I replied to the receptionist. She nodded her head and led the way, walking past many doors. I was surprised to know that most of the rooms were empty. "This is the recreational centre. People mostly come here to swim and relax. It's nothing serious." She said, walking again. I heard Anna yawn behind me and I stopped walking to look at her. "You could go stay in the car. I think that'd be better for the both of us. You don't have to stay here..with me." She stared at me and backed away from me. I could see that she was vexed at me. I couldn't care less anyway. "I'm getting a drink." She said, before turning around to leave.&
Zach's POV While Naya was sleeping, my eyes were fixed on her face. She looked the same, but skinnier. I wondered if she had been taking care of herself, because it looked like she hadn't. I had been watching her, making sure she was okay for an hour. She didn't stirr or anything, she just stayed in the same position, breathing softly. I couldn't help but to wonder how she would feel and react if she just saw me sitting before her. It was funny when I thought about it, my lips slowly curved into a smile. She started coughing and I instantly moved closer to her, holding her hands as tightly as I could. "Hey, hey. You're fine, just take it easy." I rested my hand on her chest to help her. Her lashes slowly parted and she partly opened her eyes. "Are you fine?" Immediately the words left my lips, her eyes jolted open and she started staring at me. I could tell that she was trying to think straight. Her eyes were squinted at me, staring at me form my head to wherev
Naya's POV "Will you come back home with me? I need you." His words rang in my head again and I got off his lap, tucking my hair behind my ear. I raised my head to look at him, and I saw that he was already staring at me, waiting for me to answer. Even though I didn't want to accept it, the days I spent without him were...so weird. I didn't realise how much I had gotten used to him. I was hurt, but I had gradually decided to let go of it. I was just stubborn and making the decision to show them that they shouldn't have hidden something that was so crucial away from me. I pushed those thoughts away and focused on the question that I was asked. "Yes. I'll come home with you, Zach. I-" before I had the chance to finish my sentence, I pushed his body against mine and hugged me really tight. I smiled and hugged him back, smiling against his back as I did that. "Okay, we can star
Naya's POV I slowly turned to face Zach, who instantly had a deep frown. I folded my hands and tilted my head to properly look at him. "Zach? Who's Anna? Is she a new maid?" One of the pack members walked forward and with his trembling lips, he said, "yeah. She kinda looks like one. Don't tell her." And, after that he started laughing. Most of them joined in, but they regretted their decisions when Zach threw deadly glares at them. "Um, Naya. She's not important, I promise. Let's just go to our room. I'll explain later." He moved closer and gripped my hands. I raised my head to look at him again, and he nodded. I slowly moved my eyes to his pack members and they all shrugged and left almost immediately. I didn't know why I didn't have a good feeling about this 'anna'. Because I knew almost all the maids in the house, and I couldn't remember anyone named Anna. It just seemed fishy. Even with that, I sighed and nodded at him. I was way too tired to worry about anythi
Zach's POV At that point, I really wanted to kill Louis for saying anything about Anna. I had already planned to tell Naya about everything after she must have had a good rest and some food. But, no, Louis just had to destroy that. I also knew that she wouldn't be happy to know that Anna is my ex, so that was bad on its own. I was still even thinking of ways to tell her. Slowly, she turned her head to face me, and I could see it. I could see the confusion, slight anger and curiosity written all over her tired face. She wanted to know Anna. She asked me if she was
Zach's POV "Okay, listen to me! I do not have feelings for you and I can never! Everything that happened between us was all in the past! Don't stay too long in your head, Anna! You should've been careful!" I said to Anna, while staring at her straight in her eyes. She backed away from me and started clapping dramatically. My brows furrowed in confusion, and I crossed my hands on my chest, waiting for her to do whatever she wanted to do. "Oh, alpha Zach! You're the one in your head. Very soon, you'll realise that." She walked a few feet forward, and a smile slowly crept to her face. "I mean, just imagine. You're right here...with me, while your wife - Naya, is in there probably crying your eyes out!" She grinned at me, and winked. I suddenly remembered that she was right. Naya was still there. Giving Anna a scowl, I moved away from her and dashed to my room, with my mind focused on Naya. "Naya, open the door!" I banged on the door, after realising that it was locke
Naya's POV When Zach made mention of the mates bond and how it could affect mates whenever they are not together, I remembered how I used to feel when Zach and I stayed away from each other. I used to feel so sad, angry and not interested in anything. At some point, it became so draining that I just wanted to come back home even though I was trying to prove some kind of point. He bent his head, and I prepared my lips for his. We hadn't kissed in a while, and I could feel my lips longing for his. I was happy when he finally pushed his lips against mine, devouring it like he's also been waiting to do that. It felt so good, and hungry. He gripped my waist and pushed me against the wall, without his lips leaving mine for a second. My hands flew to his head as I rested my hands around hi
Zach’s POVZach was about to deal with Anna, when she fumbled under the pressure and told him that she was going to tell him about their superiors, because she wanted to save her life, but before she could talk, she started bleeding from all her orifices, it was a terrible sight to behold.Zach stopped in his footsteps and looked around the vicinity, because the moment Anna started bleeding he could feel a terrifying presence near the pack house, he immediately disappeared from where he was standing, all the people around had no idea what was going on, but they could feel an oppressive air in the surrounding.Zach came back just as he had left, but his face was gloomy at the moment, Zach turned his head and looked at Anna who was lying on the ground on her last breath, he knew that there was nothing he could do to save her at the moment.Anna raised her hand at him, as if to grasp the last straw that could save her, but before she could raise her hand completely, her hand fell down, s
Zach’s POVZach could keenly feel that he was neither a living nor was he dead, he was just in between, when he closed his eyes and stopped breathing a month ago, he felt like he was in a dream state and was surrounded by darkness all around him, no matter where he looked all he saw was darkness, and he was walking on muddy ground, he felt like he was sinking to the ground.The more he walked around the place looking for a source of light, the quicker he was sinking into the muddy ground, so he stopped walking, there was a source of light that he saw ahead of him, but the more he tried to reach toward it, the quicker he sank into the ground.Even though everyone thought that he was dead he could hear what people were saying around him like they were whisper to his ears, he did not pay attention to all of them but he could pick up the most important.According to the tradition of the werewolves, werewolves with high position like himself were to be buried after a month of their death,
Naya’s POVNaya was in danger of dying at the moment, her limbs could not keep up with the speed of her brain in order to move to the side and escape Anna’s lethal attack.She closed her eyes waiting for her neck to be punctured by Anna’s long nails, she could still hear the frantic howls of the werewolves behind her, she was sure that it was her family members that were rushing to save her from Anna, a line of tear fell down her werewolf face, she did not want to die, but what could she do?If she had a little longer to train in movement and fighting in her werewolf form she would have been able to put up a fight against Anna, if nothing else.But she did not feel the pain of having her neck punctured even after some time, she also noticed that the whole area was eerily quiet, she wondered whether death was this tranquil, if it felt like this to be dead then it would not be that bad, she decided to open her eyes to look around to see what the afterlife looked like.When her eyes open
Naya’s POVNaya had gone to the back of the house to change back into her human form, because she did not want to appear in front of the werewolf community naked, but when she arrived at place, she remembered that she did not have any clothes with her to change into even if she transformed.For fear of appearing naked, she decided to ask her siblings to help her with some clothing from her room in the house, but even after some time she did not hear from her siblings.At first she thought that they might be in a meeting with the rest of the werewolf community on how to fight against the vampires, but after an hour had passed and she did not hear from her siblings, she decided to head to the front of the house and see what was going on.Before she even arrived, her nose picked up a strong smell of iron in the air, when she sniffed in order to discern what the smell was, she felt the nauseating smell of blood, and it was in a very large quantity.Naya immediately started having a bed fe
Naya’s POVNaya’s’ emotions had gotten over her, so she transformed into her werewolf form when she thought that the female clad in blue at the forefront of the vampires was Anna, who was Zach’s ex-girlfriend that plotted against her and used Luke to kidnap her before they put the virus into Zach.That was also the virus that was threatening her pregnancy at the moment, if not for the fact that her unborn baby had the remaining virus transferred to it, she would not be at risk of her and her baby dying, because the baby was way stronger than normal babies in the womb.So how could she control herself, when her arch nemesis was right in front of her, that was why she lost control, she was trying to jump over the gate and tear her into pieces, so that she could revenge.Mr. Alistair and his sons had surrounded Naya, they were trying to calm her down, so that she does not make any mistakes that would cost her life.Mr. Alistair said “Naya calm down, don’t do anything that you are going t

Naya’s POVNaya and her family members went to the Zach’s pack house, they were there for the meeting that was being held against the Blue Moon Pack, because they are being suspected of eradicating two packs in the Northern vicinity, just when they thought that there was no evidence to prove that the Blue Moon pack really did annihilate John’s pack, Mr. Chris called the last surviving member of John’s pack, and he was pointing his finger at Louis as the person that was responsible for the attack on his pack.There were a lot of twists and turns today, and finally Mr. Chris said that the Blue Moon pack were no longer worthy of being called the hegemon of the Northern vicinity, he was trying to take away their title, Mr. Montgomery wanted to deal with all the packs that were standing against them in his own way, when they heard a loud shout coming from the woods.All the members of the werewolf community immediately went on guard, they were surprised that they did not notice the intrude

She was wondering why he was acting like he was going to say something against the pack.Naya decided not to pay attention to him, so she looked at the former Alpha’s of the big three and said “sir this is exactly what had happened” she started narrating how she was plotted against during a festival, at first she did not want to air out her dirty laundry to outsiders, but if she believed that it could help alleviate the condition of Zach’s pack, she would do so willingly, she was telling them all about what had happened that led to the annihilation of Luke’s pack, but while she was telling them, she did not notice that the three former Alpha’
