**Alpha Cannon's POV***Seeing Roxanne so quiet only spiked up my anger. This marriage should never have taken place from the very beginning. But it did despite my disapproval. And now she dares to cheat on me? I had a mate but had to take a drastic decision all because of Roxanne and her family. I looked down at the guy Roxanne had been cheating on me with, who looked so familiar. “Aren't you, Tyrion the beta of Nightshade pack?”“Y… yes, Alpha. Please have mercy on me.”I shut my eyes and took a deep breath. The anger inside me could lead me into doing something I would regret and that's precisely what I'm trying to avoid, and that is doing something I would end up regretting. .“Tell me, Roxanne, how long has this affair been going on for?”She took her gaze downwards, looking at the floor. “Two years now,” she muttered. “Two fucking years! Roxanne, how could you?”She immediately fell on her knees as well. “I'm… I'm so sorry,” she muttered with her hands clasped together. “
***Alpha Cannon's POV***“Are you trying to make a bargain with me right now?”“I'm sorry I'm trying to make a bargain with you, but I have no choice now. This is the only way I could think of. “You have no right to bargain with me. Death is the only thing you deserve!” I snarled at him. “How about I tell you everything concerning your Luna's pregnancy, don't you think the bargain is worth it?”“Tyrion, what are you talking about?” Roxanne screamed out from her side of the cell.”“I see. So, you think I wouldn't find out who's responsible without you telling me?”“I doubt she'll ever tell you anything,” he said, looking in Roxanne's direction. Interesting, just when I was almost about to believe that indeed she was pregnant with my child. Turns out I might be wrong about that. But isn't this what I wanted? Making him speak even without the torture? I curved my lips in a smirk. “I can't believe all this will be one bitter fun. I guess I'll give you a chance to prove yourself. And
***Clair's POV***I woke up earlier than expected. And for some reason, I feel there's something wrong, even though there's nothing wrong. This is one of the days I fear. Whenever a day like this comes where I wake up earlier, there's always some kind of misfortune for the rest of the day. Though I have no idea what's actually going on, I don't feel good about whatever it may be. The feeling is something I detest the most. It was just 4: AM, but I didn't feel the need to go back to bed. For this reason, I decided to drag myself out of bed. It was simply me and Theo in a house with two bedrooms. Knowing it was still dark, I possibly cannot go to Theo. He should be resting by this time after keeping awake for the most part of the night. I walked over to the living room and then to the kitchen fridge, where I took out a bottle of water and poured it into a glass. I gulped the content down my throat. The refreshing feeling I felt after gulping down the water made me smile. Maybe the
***Alpha Cannon's POV"**I watched doctor Kel induce Roxanne just as he had said, and she instantly stopped struggling. This was pretty effective I must say. I had no idea this was actually the easiest way to subdue those who seemed to be too aggressive to submit. “Now that she's asleep, it will be easier to carry out the test now.”“Then, please do.”I watched Kel carry out the test by laying her down on the table which was in the cell. It was originally a table where torture equipment laid. Too bad for Roxanne, she brought this upon herself. If only she had been truthful, she never would have had to suffer this much. While the doctor performed the procedures with tools he brought. “Please, I would need help with setting up my machine.”The doctor said. Immediately I signaled my men to help him out. “Whatever you need for the procedures, all you need to do is ask, and I would make sure to help you with everything you ask.”The test took about an hour, and when he was done, he qu
***Clair's POV***All through the day, I could hardly close my eyes to sleep, even when I became sleepy. All this was because of the rogues who appeared in the early hours of the morning. Theo had gone out to scout the area. Before he left, he asked me to bolt the doors and windows just in case. Though I know the rogues do not operate in the day for fear of pack wolves attacking them. But then they are most active at night. I wouldn't want to think of a situation where I would be attacked by a rogue for any reason. After waiting for Theo all day, I was beginning to get very bored and lonely. I was used to moving around doing something. But right in the house I lived in, I've got no place to go to. With my heavy self. I wish I could go back to the person I was before. The one who was always busy with with chores to do. Right now, I don't find myself busy anymore. Now, it was very difficult to get busy even when I wanted to. I didn't relent on my wait for Theo until sleep finally t
**Alpha Cannon's POV***“Wait a minute, are you trying to say the person who has been carrying my child all these while is none other than the Clair I know?” He couldn't speak, but rather shivered. “Speak up before I cut out your tongue and feed it to you as food!”“Y…yes! She's the one, but I'm afraid you might not be able to make it in time to save her.”“What the fuck are you talking about?” I asked with a raised brow. “The thing is, before now, as ordered by Roxanne, I sent some rogues to lay in wait for Clair. They are to take action the moment they notice she has given birth.”“And what?” I asked, trying to control my rage even though I was some seconds away from exploding big time. “They are to kill the mother and bring the child to the pack," I instantly grabbed Tyrion on the neck a second time. “You dared to plot the death of the mother of my child? Are you not afraid of being killed as Punishment?” I questioned in utter anger. “Alpha, you have to believe me when I saw I
***Alpha Cannon's POV***“Are you sure this is the place?”I asked one of the men who took orders from Tyrion. “Y…yes Alpha. This is the apartment they lived in.”“They? Who are we talking about? I asked with a raised brow. “I'm talking about the pregnant lady and the guard who was always with her,” he replied. So it was true. Clair was actually carrying my child, and the bastard lied to me about being the father, when it was actually I who was the father. How could they lie to me? I rushed past my beta and the men whom we caught. Getting to the front door, the smell of rogues filtered my nostrils. Without giving the order, my men immediately dispatched into the woods. I was about to ring the doorbell but was surprised when I noticed the door to the house was open. This made me pause for a while. There's no way they would open the door when there's someone inside. I slowly pushed the door open and walked in. “Hello, anybody in?”Dead silence fell on my ears. This isn't looking
**Clair's POV***I woke up to the sound of crying babies. I looked down and saw two kids carefully wrapped beside me. I tried to get up from the ground, but found out I was bleeding. That instant, my heart skipped. What the hell is going on? Why am I suddenly bleeding? What happened to me?I looked around and found myself in the woods. I shot my eyes and opened them, hoping that I would recall what happened, but at that moment, nothing came to mind. No matter how I try to think about what happened, nothing comes to mind. I was totally at a loss for words at that moment. I looked ahead of me, and there laid a man in a pool of blood. This made me gasp in shock. What's going on? Why can't I remember anything? Just what happened to me? I managed to get up from the ground which I laid, even though it was hard for me to do so. I just can't lay on the floor this way. There has to be a way out of the predicament I could myself. I crawled on all fours as I approached the man. When I succe
**Clair's POV**# A Month LaterMy sex life with Cannon only got better. I can't even begin to describe just how loving Cannon had proven to be. If I ever were to be told that things would actually turn out this way for me, I never would have believed it. I mean, how did I fall this deeply?I looked in the mirror and heaved a long, deep sigh. Since my dad had found in out about Cannon and me, I had expected him to scold me or Cannon, but he rather said he already knew about what happened and there's no way he's blaming Cannon who unknowingly made me suffer or me who kept the secret about Cannon being the father of my kids. Things didn't end there, Cannon also proposed a marriage to me through my dad. Since Alpha Damian was my dad, he made him understand that he wanted his mate back. At this point, I can't deny the fact that I was head over heels in love with Cannon. But at the same time, I just don't want to let Alpha Damian feel that I'm abandoning him. Though he might not say it,
**Clair's POV ** I woke up only to realize just how free I felt. I felt so much relief that I opened my eyes and looked at my environment. To my greatest shock, I wasn't in my room. Where is this place? Gradually, it became clearer to me that I wasn't in my bed. I slowly stood up from the bed, only for me to realize that I was in Cannon's bed. At the same time, the thought of what happened before now came, clouding my memories. When I realized what a slut I had been last night, I let but a shocked gasp and shook my head. It must have been crazy for me to act that way. What the hell was wrong with me? Shit! I wonder what Cannon must have thought of me. But then, thinking about the hot sex we had instantly made my core burn. I had always thought the sex we had the first day was the best, but I just realized that it was the sex I had now that was mind-blowing. I bit my lower lips just thinking about how he licked and sucked me. Not only that, I can't help but think about how he
**Alpha Cannon's POV*** When she begged me to take her, I felt like the moon goddess had just answered my dying prayers. Without waiting a second more, I jumped on her. She looked startled when she saw this. “Hey baby, you have absolutely nothing to worry about. I'll make you feel better than you've ever felt. Do you trust me?” Though she didn't say a word, I could see in her eyes that she trusts me. That was all I needed from her before I spread her legs apart. She looked into my eyes and swallowed hard. Her innocent eyes bare holes into my very soul. She looked like she was going to have it for the very first time. But of course. I can vouch that she's never had anyone asides me in her entire life. The first night we spent together can't be counted as one, since what happened between us was more like a contract of love making. None of us invested our heart and soul into it, since we had no idea that we were doing it with ourselves. “Clair, I want you to know that you're
**Clair's POV** I had said I was going to control myself, but I found myself moaning out loud helplessly. Cannon ate me like his life depended on it, while I moaned with every contact his flesh made with my folds. “Aaaa,” I moaned out as he peeled me further open and lavishly rubbed his tongue at the center of my folds and then, he began to pick at my folds with his lips. I rolled my eyes to the back of my head. I couldn't contain myself as he continued to eat me with a careless abandon. I thrashed my head from side to side and bit my bottom lips, trying to suppress my moans. The more I tried to hold back, the more pressure he applied on my center. “Aaaa…gently please!” I cried out, but he just wasn't going to listen to my plea. My moans only charged him up and made him devour my center. As he continued to devour my center, it got to a point I began to feel pleasure and pressure in the pit of my stomach. No doubt I discovered that I was about to climax, and so I held on t
**Clair's POV **“My goodness!”I exclaimed as I quickly turned around to face him. It was indeed him. He looked not at my face but at my chest with a slightly dark gaze. This made me take my gaze downwards to my chest, only for me to realize that the robe had slid down my chest and my boots were now exposed. Shit! I quickly reached for the robe to cover myself. I was shocked when Cannon suddenly covered the distance between us in one swift move and held my hands in place. “What are you doing?” He asked, staring at me with a confused expression. “What do you think? I'm trying to cover up,” I said between my teeth. “Why would you want to cover up in front of me? Have you forgotten our agreement? Is this how you intend to please me, perhaps?”The moment he said the words, I opened my mouth wide in utter shock. Why did I not think about what I had said before now? “I…" I trailed off, not knowing what to say to him. Just at that very moment, I took my gaze downwards, only to that,
**Clair's POV**I stood in front of the water bath. I still can't believe what I'm about to do. How did I get this far? “Ma'am, on earth you're done, please let me know.”I took my gaze toward the direction of the lady who stood at the entrance of Cannon's bathroom door. “You don't have to watch me. I'll be very much okay on my own.”Alright, Ma'am,” the lady said with a smile before exiting the bathroom. I shut my eyes and took a deep breath the moment she was out of the room. I can't even begin to describe what all this was. All I knew was that I'm feeling so awkward. This is just like the first day I had sex with Cannon for the first time. I remembered that back also soaked a warm bath. The only difference was that Roxanne watched the whole process of my bath. Unlike now, where I wasn't under anyone's supervision. No matter how normal I'm trying to feel, it still doesn't change the fact that I'm giving myself out to Cannon in exchange for the cancellation of a battle. I can
**Alpha Cannon's POV **I paced from one end of my office to the next. I was worried sick about what I had said earlier. “Alpha Cannon, you shouldn't stop pacing for crying out loud. I'm beginning to feel extremely dizzy right now, you know. Please, calm down and let me think.”“No, you don't understand, Andrew. You know for a fact that Clair isn't someone who will back down from something like this.”“My goodness! This is why you never should have said that to her. What are we going to do now if she comes up with something else.”“That's the problem.”I'm afraid that Clair might have something else going on in her head. Whenever she leaves angry, what she comes back with is always shocking. When she left after I asked her to stay here in the pack with me, she shocked me out of my wits when she rather came back with Alpha Rojas. While I was contemplating on what to do, I suddenly heard a knock on my office door. I took my gaze towards Andrew, who equally stared at me in shock. My
**Clair's POV **“A condition?”“Yes, a condition. Are you ready to hear it?”“Well, why don't you bring it on,” I stated, prepared to hear what he had to say. Just then, he slowly walked over to where I stood. Judging from his slightly dark expression, I was having the thought that I might not actually like what he was about to say to me. Just as he got close to where I stood, he suddenly stretched out his hands towards me. I tried to move backwards a bit before I could do that. He grabbed a hold of my waist and pulled me towards him.“What do you think you are doing?”I asked, breathing heavily. This action of his has tuned my wolf into disarray. Why was he suddenly doing this? Does he have any idea how badly what he was doing affected me?“I don't know why I'm the only one with this feeling. This is unfair. You're my mate, and you should at least feel a little passion for me, just as I feel for you. How can I be the only one to suffer for this? It's so unfair,” he whispered as he
**Clair's POV ***I looked up at Rojas, I felt terribly bad for what I was about to say, since I was the one who moved the motion from the very beginning. “Rojas, I'm sure you'll be wondering why I came to you and not saying anything for a while now. That's because I still don't know how to start talking about what's on my mind.”“What could you have had in mind? You know you can always talk to me, and I'll hear you out.”“Well, the thing is, I want to put a stop to the fight about getting back my kids.”“What? Why would you stop? Don't you wish to get back your kids anymore?”“Of ourselves I do, but then after a second thought, I realized that I actually can't fight him for the kids no more what I do. It's obvious that he's only willing to let go, and I'm not going to fight about this as well.”“My goodness, Clair, do you realize that you have just succumbed to him? Is that what you want?”“Believe me, that's not what I want, but the situation is far more complicated than I thought.
