***Alpha Cannon's POV**I paced from one end of my room to the next. This was freaking annoying!”Andrew rushed into the room immediately. “Why didn't you come in time when I asked to see you?!” I yelled at him. “Goodness! Alpha Cannon, what makes you look this pissed? I mean, it's not like you to get this angry.”“Did you just say unlike me? You think I should be smiling after what happened?!” I yelled. “You're getting angry again. Just calm down and explain things to me.”“I swear, I can never be friends with Rojas!”“Hold on a minute. Let me get this straight. It can't be that you finally found out about his feelings for Miss Clair?”“What? Hold on, are you trying to tell me that you knew about this?”“Who doesn't know about this? I told you about the lady named Diane and how she accused Miss Clair of seducing Alpha Rojas. Actually, Miss Clair might not have had such intention towards Rojas, but there's a clear possibility that he felt that way about her, if you know what I mean
**Clair's POV*** I bit my bottom lips as Alpha Damian, the elders, Teresa and me all stood in the pack's courtroom, awaiting the results of the search. “Miss Clair, you should brace yourself. I believe your kids will be returned to you.” Teresa had no idea about what's going on. Before now, I've dreamt about my kids and in my dreams, they were not returned to me. I want to believe that it was just a mere dream. It must have wanted to torture me into believing that I won't set eyes on my kids anymore. I have to keep hope alive, this is the only way out for me. I took my gaze towards Teresa, who held on to my hands tightly. I could tell that she's just as expectant as I am as of the moment. Just then, the soldiers marched into the room. Immediately I stood up, peeping at every soldier who walked in, hoping they were carrying a child, but I didn't see a child with any of them. Instantly I staggered, but Teresa who had been clinging on to me the whole time helped pull me up t
**Alpha Cannon's POV***“W…what are you trying to say?”She asked with a raised brow. “What I'm trying to say is simple. By the way, why don't you explain to me your relationship with Alpha Cannon as well?”Instantly, she lifted her eyes in surprise. I guess that must have been the last question she was expecting from someone like me. “Alpha Cannon, don't you think you're asking me too much of a question here? Did you, perhaps do some digging about me?”“What do you think?” She shut her eyes and took a deep breath. “I don't really know what you're after, but everyone around me knows how close these people are to me. I don't understand why you're asking me a question about them.”“Relax, I'm only asking you a question, it's not a death sentence.”“Alright. Just like I said earlier, they are close to me, but not as close as you might think we are. So tell me, what is this about?”“Good! I like the fact that you're a straightforward person; hence I don't have to beat around the bush
**Trina's POV***I laid on my bed with a smile on my face. It will soon be a week, after which I'll contact Clair. By then, her desperation would hold no bounds and all of my plans would finally come to pass. I just can't wait for my plans to take effect as soon as possible. I smiled happily at the turn of events. Just then, the door to my room flew open unexpectedly and to my shock, it was no one else but Diane. Immediately I jolted up from my bed. “My goodness! Diane, how could you barge into my room just like that? Even though you made it possible for me to find a place to hide, it still doesn't give you the right to just barge into my room just like that!”“I'm sorry for doing that. But that's not relevant right now.”“Huh? What do you mean?” I asked at once. Now that I looked at her closely, she seemed like someone who had just had a near-death experience. “Tell me, what happened to you, Diane?”“Miss Trina, I'm afraid we might not be able to hide for long this way.”“What?
**Alpha Cannon's POV***“Alpha Cannon, sure this is a good idea? I mean, what if she's not the one?”“Do you know one thing about guilty ones, they always tell you they are innocent. We are here to find out what it is she's hiding.”“But what if whatever she's hiding had nothing to do with the kids."“That's not the case. I'm not here solely because I suspect her of abducting the kids. I'm sure whatever she's hiding must have something to do with the case,” I explained to Andrew, who nodded his head. We've been waiting outside the hotel, which Diane went into. After a few hours. I noticed her strolling out of the hotel. “Here she is. But strangely, she's out alone. Do you think whoever she came to see is in there?”“Probably. Just get the men to be on standby. Though we might not get anything on her, we can as well find out about her secret.”As soon as she got into the car, I had expected that she would drive off, but she didn't. Rather, she stays in her car without starting the en
**Alpha Cannon's POV***The kids were successfully transported into the back seat of my car. “Alpha, what do we do with these women?”“I want you to send them to the Nightingale pack. I'm sure that Clair would be glad to find those who actually abducted her kids.”“Alright. But what about the kids? What do we do about them?”“The kids…”I looked into my car where both boys sat quietly. I shut my eyes and took a deep breath. “They are coming with me.”“W... What? Aren't you going to return them now that they have been found?”“Andrew, why don't you tell me sincerely. Do you really think I should return them?”“Well, the thing is-”“You know for a fact, if I return them, I'll never be able to lay eyes on my kids ever again. Do you really want me to go through such agony? Do you think Clair would ever look at me?”“I understand where your pains are coming from, to be honest.”“Well, if you do, then I don't think there's more to talk about.”With that said, I walked into the back seat o
**Clair's POV***I laid on my bed, looking up at the ceiling when I heard a knock on my door, accompanied by the door being pushed open. I jolted up from my bed at once only to see Teresa rush in. “My goodness, Teresa! You scared the shit out of me, you know.”“I'm so sorry, Clair, but the news I bring you is important and shocking.”“Huh? What is it this time?”“You know, Alpha Damian had been investigating the words of Debby since she was the one with the kids when they got kidnapped.”“Yes, I know that for sure. So, what's so important.”“Well, information reaching me is that Debby had confessed.”“What? I don't think I understand what you're trying to say.”“What I'm trying to say is that Debby was said to have confessed the fact that she was involved in the abduction of your kids.”“Wait, what? I mean, how's that even possible?” I asked wide-eyed as I sat up straight. “Why don't we find out together? The Alpha wants your presence now.”Immediately, I jumped out of bed and head
**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,
