Alexander’s POVTyler also got up, flexed his muscles, and said, "Indeed, the werewolves of Shadow City are quite formidable, forcing us to use the potion our ancestors left behind."I found it amusing, and with a wary smile, I realized that these werewolf hunters had more than a few tricks up their sleeves.The tension in the room was thick enough to cut with a knife. My heart pounded as Tyler and Jake, the werewolf hunters, glared at me with fury in their eyes. They had managed to evade Ethan's attacks, and now, their silver pistols were drawn and aimed straight at me. But I couldn't back down, not when Sophia's safety was at stake.I had tossed her onto Ethan's back as a precaution, making sure she was out of harm's way. She clung to him, her eyes wide with fear, but she trusted me to handle the situation. I couldn't let her down."Lower your weapons," I growled, my voice low and dangerous. "She's coming with us."Tyler and Jake exchanged a glance, their expressions hardening. They
Alexander’s POVTyler and Jake exchanged a glance, their expressions hardening. They were committed to their mission, and they weren't about to let me or Ethan, my loyal companion, stand in their way.With a swift movement, Tyler fired a shot from his silver pistol, narrowly missing me. I dodged to the side, the sound of the gunshot ringing in my ears. Ethan leaped at Jake, their forms colliding in a flurry of fur and teeth.I put away my contempt for the wolf hunters and focused on the battle at hand. Tyler and Jake were no amateurs; they had trained for this moment for years. But so had I.We clashed, our bodies moving with precision and agility. Over the years, the werewolf hunters had lacked the rigorous training that I had undergone as the Alpha of the Shadow City. It wasn't long before they found themselves at a disadvantage, their stamina dwindling with each passing moment.Tyler clutched his side, blood staining his shirt from a wound I had inflicted. Jake's face was bruised a
Alexander’s POVAs I pulled back, I could see the shock and disbelief in Tyler and Jake's eyes. They had never expected me to take such a drastic step, to mark Sophia as my own. But I would do whatever it took to ensure her safety and happiness.“No, damn it!” Tyler and Jake shouted in unison.Tyler's voice was filled with anger as he scolded me. "You've gone too far, werewolf. This is a violation of everything we stand for."Jake nodded in agreement, his expression just as furious. "You'll regret this."But before they could react, before they could make a move against me, Ethan stepped forward, his growl low and menacing. He was a loyal companion, and he would protect me and Sophia at all costs."Back off," Ethan warned, his eyes locked onto Tyler and Jake. "You won't lay a finger on them."As I held Sophia in my arms, her body marked with my claim, I couldn't help but feel a surge of pride and possessiveness. She was mine, now and forever, and I was determined to protect her at all
Sophia’s POVI blinked my eyes open, slowly becoming aware of my surroundings. I was lying in a comfortable bed, and the warmth of a broad chest pressed against my back made me feel safe and protected. I turned my head slightly and saw Alexander, his gentle gaze fixed on me."Good morning," he murmured, his voice soft as he stroked my hair with a tender touch. "Did you sleep well? Are you hungry?"I nodded, a smile tugging at my lips. "Yes, I'm hungry."Ethan had already prepared breakfast, and the delicious aroma wafted through the room. We got up and made our way to the dining area, where a spread of food awaited us.As we sat down to eat, I couldn't help but mention something that had been on my mind for a while. "It's been so long since I've been home. I miss my parents."Alexander looked at me, his expression turning serious. He understood the implications of what I was saying. My parents were humans, and he was a werewolf. The revelation that I had two children, his children, wo
Alexander’s POVThe room fell silent, the weight of her words hanging heavily in the air. Richard and Anne stared at her in disbelief, and I could feel their shock radiating from them. I glanced at Sophia, her eyes filled with a mixture of apprehension and hope.Anne was the first to find her voice. "You've...you've given birth? When did this happen? Why didn't you tell us?"A stunned silence fell upon the room, broken only by the ticking of the grandfather clock in the corner. Richard's brows furrowed in disbelief, and he shifted uncomfortably in his armchair. "You've given birth? When did this happen?"Sophia stammered out her explanation. "It... it happened 3 years ago, Dad."“What? !3 years ago? Sophia, you were just a student three years ago."“Yes... Sorry, Dad.”Her mother, Anne, gasped softly, placing a hand to her chest in shock. "But... but why didn't you tell us, Sophia? We had no idea."I watched Sophia closely, my heart aching for the pain she was experiencing. I knew tha
Alexander’s POVThe weight of the room's tension hung heavily as I sat there, feeling the weight of responsibility for the pain that my presence had caused. Sophia's parents, Richard and Anne, were still visibly upset, and Richard's disappointment had cut deeply. I cleared my throat, trying to find the words to mend the broken trust."I want to sincerely apologize once again," I began, my voice steady but filled with remorse. "I deeply regret any pain and disappointment my actions have caused you, especially Sophia. We didn't take this decision lightly, and we knew it was time to confess to you, to be honest about our feelings and intentions."Richard's expression was still stern, but there was a glimmer of curiosity in his eyes. "Thought long and hard, you say?"I nodded, my gaze unwavering. "Yes, sir. We knew that our love for each other was strong enough to face whatever challenges might come our way. We're committed to taking care of Sophia and the children."Richard's gaze shifte
Alexander’s POVThree days had passed since I returned to the mansion, my heart heavy with the knowledge of the recent werewolf attacks on humans. The situation was dire, and I knew that immediate action was necessary to protect both the werewolf community and the humans who had become unwitting targets.I had spent those three days tirelessly strategizing, using my vast financial resources to suppress the news of the attacks. It was a delicate and challenging task, one that required the utmost discretion and secrecy.As I sat in my study, pondering our next steps, my loyal and capable secretary, Candace, entered the room. Her sharp eyes and unwavering dedication had always been assets, and I trusted her implicitly."Mr. Alexander, I have an update on the media coverage regarding the recent attacks," she said, her tone as composed as ever.I nodded, eager to hear the progress. "Go on, Candace."She held out a report for me to peruse, and I quickly scanned the contents. It detailed how
Alexander’s POVAs I finally settled into a moment of respite, my phone buzzed, and I glanced at the caller ID. It was Sophia. I answered with a curious tone, wondering why she was calling at this hour."Sophia, what's going on?" I inquired.Her voice came through with a mixture of concern and urgency. "Alexander, I just wanted to let you know that Daniel, Daisy, and Emilia are on their way to the mansion."I couldn't help but feel a rush of irritation at the news. "Why aren't they still in Shadow City? I thought I made it clear that they were to stay there for the time being."Sophia's voice remained calm as she explained. "Ethan said... Emilia insisted on coming, and she convinced the kids to join her. She said she had some important information to share with you."I sighed, feeling my frustration grow. "Alright, prepare a car for me. I'll be heading home as soon as possible."I knew Emilia was my cousin, but she had a knack for getting herself into trouble, and I wasn't thrilled ab
