Clark's POV.

"You don't expect me to easily believe you when you say you are fine, Rex." I snapped as I looked at him.

"How do you expect me to explain that you left yesterday around 2p.m to go pick up your kids and throughout yesterday, no calls and not even a single text from you. And you expect me to buy your "I'm fine?" I scoffed as I tilted my lips.

He furrowed his eyebrows as he looked at me for a while, like he was contemplating something.

But then, being a werewolf was also limited. Without him letting me read his mind, I just couldn't sit across the table and hear his thoughts aloud and, right now, I wished that was possible.

I frowned as he ignored me, lowering his head again as he continued with his breakfast.

I screamed frustratingly as I got up.

I hate being left out. "I am your beta, Rex and I deserve to know everything that goes on in your life." I snapped, trying to get him to talk to me.

"Hmm." He growled lightly as he raised his head again. And just as before,

    Elena's POV.I had gotten a new job in one of the biggest hotels in New Kingston. It was owned and controlled by a powerful werewolf family here in Kingston and, after the CEO died, his two sons took over the family business.His daughter recently got wedded into a different pack, a powerful pack as well. And I worked in the resort section. In the beach area. New Kingston was a place that welcomed a large number of tourists every month, which meant that it was definitely a great business and also, my salary for two months could help me pay up my house rent, which was already two months due. Marie also worked in the resort section. To be more precise, we were among the bartenders. "Wow, there is definitely no way I'm getting into a fight here!" Marie chuckled softly as she pinched my arm, making me yelp."I know you, Marie." I scoffed, rolling my eyes as I continued arranging my next order. Marie and I worked closely together. That way, we could avoid getting into any sort of troub

    Rex's POV.I remained indoors for a week against my wolf's wish. All I did was pay absolutely no attention to how she was coping or even making an attempt to go find out where she was now working and where exactly it was located.Clark had informed me about her new role in one of the biggest hotels in New Kingston and I remember lodging there years back before we separated.I yearned to see my two little adorable pups but then, she made it clear to me, she wanted me away from her and her children and there was absolutely no way I was going back again.I groaned as I laid on my bed. For a complete week now, I remained indoors and all I did was eat, sleep, shower, do an hour of exercise in my room and play Rubik's cube. That was more comforting as I had lost interest in watching any movie or even browsing the web. It was hard staying away but then, I was still trying to heal from the last day we saw. My head kept replaying the slap and how she pointed at me, strictly warning me to lea

    Elena's POV. It was a week and a day now, making it eight days without setting my eyes on Rex. It was the weekend as well, and I was going to be having the night shift.Kanu and Kiana wouldn't stop asking about Rex. And it was such an adorable name to give the man who they least expected to be their biological father. Kiana preferred calling him "Chocolate friend" because he had bought them chocolates for them the different times he had met them. Maybe if they could stop talking about him and asking about him, it would have been easier for me to forget about him again, but no, they kept on talking about him."What was so special about him? Was it just the natural bond that couldn't be destroyed no matter the years of being apart? I scowled as I scrunched down to their height."Mummy will be going to work tonight, so I will be dropping you both at her house, okay?" I said with a smile on my face as they both smiled back at me. I loved how jovial they were always. Without them in my

    It was just like they were hosting a jamboree on the beach. The whole place was properly lit and the hotel was probably a 20 storey building. We drove past the hotel as we parked the car at the parking lot and then took the wooden bridge that led us to the beach area."I thought you said she worked in the hotel? Why don't we just eat in the restaurant where I can see her instead of coming to this noisy place?" I queried as he led the way. "You know, when I said she worked in the hotel, I actually meant she worked in the beach." He said, shining his teeth as he looked at me and then, tilting his lips too. I scanned the beach. It was filled with people, and I could tell they were more than half of werewolves here too.It was a pretty long walk to the bar and an annoying one too because of how crowded it was."Hello, handsome?" A young lady rested her hand on my chest as she bit her lower lip and then, licking it too. As we walked down through the crowded area, I did a pretty great j

    Rex's POV."Hey, uhmm… Elena." A young boy probably the same age as Elena walked up to the counter as he looked at her, smiling widely at her as he maintained eye contact with her."I am Liam. Liam Bohen." He introduced himself as he still wore that broad smile on his face. I felt this jealousy creeping in as I watched how flirtatious he was acting around her. I felt my wolf growling lightly. "I noticed you when I came in. You know, I could talk to your manager and maybe, I could drop a big tip for you so he can let you have some little fun tonight." He muttered."Who does he think he is?" I growled angrily as I looked at them."Uhmm… maybe we could dance, then join my friends and swim a little and we get to know ourselves and all that, you know?" He said as he bit his lower lip."Such harlotry!!" I scowled, cursing as I wished I could just tear him apart right now. "Uhmm… I… I'm sorry to disappoint you. I can't join you in a dance or go swimming with you." She responded as she sm

    Rex's POV. “You won't believe it, Madame!!” Clark snapped as he sat down on the swivel chair. “So, here it is and how the perfect reunion went.” He snapped as Alice sat down on her swivel chair in her wide office in the King's Real Estate Company. She had this broad smile on as Clark was only being dramatic again. “So, there was this guy, he walked up to the counter and you know what he said?” He asked as he got up from the swivel chair. “No! What did he say.?” Alice responded in a split of a second as she looked at Clark. She smiled broadly as I couldn't stop admiring her well arranged Auburn hair. I still couldn't get how Clark turned from a high school friend to my beta and then, to a son and I hate when they plot behind my back. But then, that wasn't something I should be worried about because he was my most trusted ally. “Hey, uhmm… Elena.""Liam. Liam Bohen." "I noticed you when I came in.

    Liam Bohen’s POV. “How long do I have to wait? I am already 20 years old, father.” I growled as I paced about the room. “How long do I have to wait before you pass on your power to me? I should be the one ruling the pack already, father!!” I growled angrily this time around.“You are just 20 and I happen not to be old. You have a lot to learn.” Alphonso snapped as he rolled his eyes. "A lot to learn?" I scowled as I looked at him. "If only you ever listened to me, I would have been able to defend myself from that pathetic Alpha who embarrassed me in front of everyone. I couldn't even stay back. I had to leave the jamboree out of shame." I snarled as I punched the wall."An Alpha?" Alphonso's voice deepened immediately."And you know what he said?" I chuckled scornfully as I looked at my father who was approaching his sixties and yet, wouldn't let a fresh blood rule."He said, “a Bohen's request was declined!!” This is our territory, father. We belong to New Kingston and we are the

    Elena’s POVI felt my heart fluster as I watched how he stood there in the dark. He was the last person I was expecting to see come to my rescue from the hands of this god-damned asshole. "Was he stalking me?" I blushed while covering my exposed boobs with my torn top. "How come he was here at this hour? Shouldn't he be at home? Maybe, probably resting or…""How many times do I have to say this to you? I hate repeating myself, young man!!" He said in a light growl as I could hear his bones cracking."Was he changing into his wolf?" I snapped as I remained still, looking at his domineering figure that remained unmoved in the dark. Seeing those red eyes made my wolf feel safe. It felt like nothing had changed in those five years. "Are you insane?" I brushed off my shoulder as I looked at Liam who was literally freaking out like he was going to explode the next minute. "I will spare you tonight again but the next time I see you this close to my…"He quickly paused as he left a growli

    Elena's POV The early morning light filtered through the pack house windows and casted a golden glow over the kitchen, while I busied myself with preparing breakfast. It was a calm morning, but I could feel tension in the air. While the battle went on yesterday, Alphonso got captured and what was going to be done with him hadn't been decided yet, but whatever decision was going to be taken will define the pack's future.I stood by the counter, stirring a pot of oatmeal while Kanu and Kiana bickered playfully over the cereal I had given them earlier. Something about their laughter and noise felt comforting and reminded me of the simple life that we almost lost. It was hard to imagine that we managed to pull through, but as I glanced at the family photo, the realisation that we had survived set in.Then, Rex walked in, looking as if he had just woken up, his dark hair a bit ruffled. "It sure smells good in here," he said groggily.I smiled at him. "I'm preparing breakfast obviously, bu

    Elena's POV The energy was electric in the pack house. Wolves in human and shifted forms moved around the courtyard with their voices conveying relief and celebration. Despite the tension everyone felt from the battle we endured, everyone felt hopeful and personally, I can't remember the last time I felt that way.Standing near the edge of the crowd while watching as pack members approached Rex to congratulate him, I noticed that he moved slowly as a result of his injuries but his presence was still as commanding as ever. He cemented his role as a leader with each nod of his head and each word he exchanged with them. "Are you okay?" A voice said from my side, breaking me out of my thoughts. Turning sideways, I see that it's Logan."I think so," I replied, my gaze shifting back to Rex."You give off this feeling of someone that's getting ready to run." Logan said with a mischievous smile, though his tone was gentle.That caused a short laugh to escape my lips, "it's just a lot. All o

    Elena's POVI woke up to the morning light filtering through the blinds of the hospital room with its soft rays washing over Rex's face. He was still asleep with his chest rising and falling in a steady rhythm. Despite how pale he looked with the bandages wrapped around his chest, he looked like a warrior at rest after fighting a long battle.Leaning back against the chair by his bed with my body still aching from dozing off in an uncomfortable position with my hands still resting on his, unwilling to let go I closed my eyes slightly but the image of Logan walking towards me with some of Rex's blood on his body replayed in my head. The door opened behind me and I turned to see Logan walk in with clean clothes and a smile on his face while carrying two cups of coffee. He smiled at me softly as he approached before placing one of the cups on the small table beside me. "I thought you would need this," he said as he sat down on the other side of Rex's bed."Thanks," I replied gratefully

    Elena's POV I was in a room, praying that the battle goes in like favour when a wolf rushed in agitation."What's going on in the battlefield?" I asked hurriedly."We were able to defeat Kingsley but..". "But what?!" I asked impatiently."The Alpha was wounded in battle and is being rushed to the hospital right now." As I heard that, I felt dread overcome me and without a second thought, I grabbed my keys."Marie!" I called out, my voice shaking. "Watch the kids for me. I have to go."Maria frowned in concern, "Elena, hold on!"But I was already out the door, my heart pounding as I drove towards the hospital.The drive to the hospital was a blur with my mind focused on getting to the hospital as fast as I could. The sounds of the radio faded into the background as my thoughts consumed me with the words of the wolf being played over and over again in my mind."What if he doesn't make it?"The very thought of that happening struck me hard at my chest like a punch. I had spent so much

    Elena's pov"What if you don't have to?" Alicia asked, "you don't really have to go back to how things were between you two and honestly, I don't think it's a good idea since things were pretty toxic between you two.""That is true." I said with a gentle nod of my head. "So I suggest that you both build something new." She replied.Hearing that, it was as if a door opened up in my mind as I began to seriously consider her opinion.The following morning, the Pack gathered at an open field which was the site of the meeting with every wolf on high alert.Standing before us was Rex with his commanding presence as he addressed the crowd. "Today we are here to fight for the future of our packs. Kingsley and Alphonso have both been controlling us for so long using just fear and manipulation and it's time to put an end to it."In response, everyone cheered in approval with some of them howling. I stood at the edge of the gathering with the women and children while looking for signs of troubl

    Elena's POV I, my twins, Marie and Alicia had moved to Rex's pack away from New Kingston. He had figured out that if we remained in New Kingston we'd be easily attacked by Kingsley and his cohorts.His mother was so filled with joy to see us finally return to the pack.Standing at the edge of Rex's pack grounds, I felt the cool air against my skin. All around me were werewolves shifting into their forms and patrolling the perimeter with their scouts running back and forth with one update after the other. Turning sideways, my eyes rested on Rex who was barking orders with authority which was expected since he was an Alpha and knew the weight of his responsibilities.Anyone else standing on the spot I stood would have felt nervous or utterly terrified but I felt oddly calm. I knew what was happening right now wasn't just about survival anymore but about standing for something and protecting the people that matter the most.As I busied myself with my thoughts, a voice broke me out of it

    Logan's POVThe air in the safe house was heavy with tension with Zachary pacing the small room with his footsteps creaking rhythmically on the wooden floor. On a table situated by the side, I sat with a map spread out before me as I observed the marked locations which represented Kingsley's growing influence across the packs.Suddenly, the footsteps stopped in front of me which prompted me to raise my head only to see Zachary staring at me. "We don't have much time." He said silently. "Kingsley's plan is already in motion and Alphonso's political might will protect him if we don't act now."Do you think I do not know that?" I asked with a quirked eyebrow. "Of course I do but if we move too soon, we risk exposing our hands too early. We need to hit them where it'll hurt the most-where they least expect us to hit."Zachary folded his arms in response, he didn't look too convinced by my reasoning. "And how do you think we should do that? Kingsley has access to Alphonso's resources, the

    Elena's POV Sitting down by the kitchen table, my hands trembled slightly as I stirred my cup of tea with the clanking generated from my spoon hitting the sides of the cup grounding me. It was late in the afternoon and the sun had cast long shadows with golden patterns around the kitchen. As I did that, my mind went to the words Collins uttered the previous night with each word echoing in my head. "Rex won't see it coming. Once he's out of the way, we'll have complete control. Are you worried about Elena? You shouldn't be, She's loyal for now."I couldn't believe what I had just heard. The man I had trusted my life and the life of my kids with, the same man I let into my life had been scheming all along? I could not believe it but the weight of his betrayal pressed heavily against my chest. How could I be so blind"? Gripping the edge of my table to steady myself, I took in deep breaths and I didn't notice one of my kids come close to me. "Mom!"Kanu called, startling me, which ca

    Elena's POV.Hearing the faint hum of the coffee machine in the background alongside the sound of the TV and the sound of laughter from Kiana and Kanu should have brought me a sense of peace and comfort but in the particular situation I'm in, it only brought me unease with my hand tightening around my cellphone while I stared at it.I had sent Collins a text a while ago which he had left unanswered and that made me extremely anxious. "Mom!" Kiana shouted, his voice interrupting my thoughts. "Kanu is cheating again and I do not like it!"With a sigh of exhaustion, I dropped the phone into my pocket before turning around and walking into the living room and there stood Kanu on the sofa, triumphantly holding the game controller in his hand and high over his head with Kiana by the side glaring at him with her little hands balled into fists."I am not cheating!" Kanu yelled back, while jumping away as Kiana tried to snatch the controller from him."Okay, that's enough." I said, stepping b
