**Clair's POV**To my greatest surprise, I saw Diane and Trina tied together, with a lady I knew nothing about. At that moment, I felt my heartbeat race. Seeing these women together, simply means there's something that could either mend or break my heart. Immediately, I picked up my steps and rushed towards Trina at full speed. Getting to where she was, I instantly grabbed her on the neck. “Tell me, where is my child?!”Trina stared at me with a gaze that described her, mocking me. “How dare you stare at me that way. Believe me, if you don't tell me where my child is, I swear I'm going to kill you right here and now!”I yelled out in anger. “Clair, hold your anger for now. We are yet to find out how they arrived at the pack.”I turned my gaze towards my dad. “You mean, they came of their accord?”“Not at all, these gentlemen here actually brought them.”I took my gaze towards the direction of the gentlemen the Alpha talked about. For some reason, I find them familiar, but then,
**Alpha Cannon's POV**I stared at my grandmother, who looked at her great grandkids in shock. “My goodness!” She exclaimed. “What's wrong grandma?”She took her gaze toward me, her eyes filled with emotions. “I never would have thought that I would truly lay eyes on my great grandkids. How did you do it? Did Clair finally let you take them to the Pack?”My grandmother asked, while staring at me, anticipating my answer. “What if I say not at all.”“It can't be that you didn't seek her approval before taking them.”“That's precisely what I'm trying to say. I didn't seek her approval.”“What? And why not?”“Grandmother, do you think she would have let me take the kids if I had asked? She definitely would refuse me, just as she refused me from laying eyes on them.”“Oh dear. I do understand why she limited you, though. Child, you can't blame her for not wanting you to see the kids. I'm sure I would have done the same if it were me.”“You see what I said I had to take the kids by forc
**Clair's POV*** Standing in front of the Alpha, I was utterly confused that I didn't even know what to say as of the moment. “Clair, why are you silent? Don't you have something to say to me?” His sudden question made me raise my head up to look at him. I paused my lips while staring at him. As much as I wanted to tell him what was on my mind, I found myself fidgeting and at a loss for words to speak. “What's wrong? Why do you look so shocked?” “Dad, I know what I want to say to you now might make you disappointed in me. This is the reason I'm speechless.” He sat up straight on his chair and cleared his throat. “Actually, I don't think there's anything for you to be afraid of.” I shook my head, while trying to hold back the tears that formed at the corners of my eyes. I understand why you're saying this now. But if you actually find out the truth, I'm not sure if you'll be okay with it.” Heaved a long, deep sigh. “Now I could tell that I'm making things harder for you, a
**Clair's POV***As soon as I got down from my car, the first thing I perceived was the scent of my kids and my mother. This made me breathe a sigh of relief. Finally, I was able to find them both. Now, getting into the pack could be quite difficult, especially when it's the territory of my enemy. I walked out of the car as soon as my driver held out the door for me. Looking around the pack, I noticed it was no different from what I've known it to be in the past. I guess Cannon didn't pay attention to the beauty of his pack like he used to in the past. Not like the pack wasn't looking good. It still had that charm that would make anyone coming to the pack for the first time go wow!As soon as I headed to the pack entrance, the guards all came towards my direction. Funny enough, I know almost every guard present. They all held an expression of delight in their faces. Among them came Andrew. “Welcome back to the pack, Miss Clair. It's our pleasure to see you here again,” he said w
**Alpha Cannon's POV***No matter how hard I tried to see reasons with It, just didn't work. I had expected her to be hard-headed but I never thought that she would take it this far. Just what does she think in her head all the time? How am I supposed to convince her that I'm not her enemy? All she sees are the bad things about me. I don't think she's ever questioned herself any day about if I was truly her enemy or not. Why would she do this to me? While I was deep in thoughts, my beta instantly barged into my office looking all worried. “Alpha, what exactly happened here? Did she refuse your terms?”“She didn't even give me the opportunity to call out my terms,” I said with a clenched fist. “This is bad. What were her demands?”“She wants the kids and her mother too!” I hit my desk in anger. “What? This is so not looking good. I had thought she was only mad about her kids, but now it turns out she also wants her mother too. Alpha, what do you have in mind to do now?”“What do y
**Alpha Cannon's POV** Clair's Mom, went wide in shock. Immediately, she put down the watering can she was holding and came closer to meet me. “Are you serious about what you've just said? You really found my daughter?” “Yes. She's doing okay, and she'll come see you soon.” “The goddess be praised! This is indeed the greatest news I've ever heard. Who would have thought that I would get to see my child again. Oh my goodness!” She welled up that very moment. I can imagine how she must be feeling at the moment. “Alpha Cannon, you have no idea just how happy I am at the moment. The goddess must love me to have kept my daughter safe for me.” “You're right. Though I would like to hear from you concerning an important matter.” “I know you're not aware of this, but I think this is the right time to let you know about this.” “Alright, I'm all ears, Alpha.” “Actually, Clair is my mate, and she actually gave birth to twin boys for me.” “Huh?” She muttered in utter shock. “H…how di
**Clair's POV***“You want me to ask Alpha Damian for help?”“I mean, yes. You know he can't tell Alpha Damian.”“No, you don't understand the situation. There's no way I can ask the Alpha for help with this.”“And why not? I'm sure he'll help.”“The Alpha gave me the go ahead to go claim my kids, and he assured me that he was going to support whatever decision I made. Why do you think he said that?”“I don't think I'll be able to tell why, to be honest.”“He said that because he trusted that I would be able to get my kids back. He believes in me, and he's so sure that there's nothing I wouldn't be able to achieve.”“Oh dear! I know this is hard, Alpha Cannon is being unreasonable. He never should have given you such conditions. I mean, they are your kids, after all. He is not entitled to tell you what to do to get your kids.”“And that is one reason why I'm never going to back down. He might have thought he's gotten to me, but he's mistaken. I'm going to find one way or another to ge
**Clair's POV**The moment I said the words, I noticed how Cannon's expression changed, and that made my heart sink. Damn the mate bond. Why should I feel bad because he's sad? The bond is acting more foolishly every time I see him. “Clair, we can talk about this, you don't need to bring in a third party you know. If you are mad at me, you know you can always come to me, and we'll talk this out together.”“Did you just hear yourself speak? Talk it out? You clearly aren't even giving me the opportunity to talk things out. If you wanted us to both act civilized, then you never should have abducted the kids in the first place!”“Stop trying to give excuses for your actions, Cannon. Taking her kids without her consent is also known as kidnapping, what you did was an offense. “Fucking stay out of this, Rojas. You would rather not get on my nerves. I'm trying my best to control my temper. Do not let me lose it!”“You think you still have the right to be mad at who came here to help me? Y
