"My mother?" Sienna was confused."You know my mother?" Her voice was full of disbelief.I didn't think this was a great time to break the news to her. I caught movement in the doorway and I saw Agnia waiting to be called."Agnia" Rome called her from the doorway and she strode inside.I looked at Sienna to take in her reaction to the news. So many emotions crossed her face at the same time. Hurt, regret, disbelief and finally settled on anger."You're my mother?" She questioned."Yes my child" Agnia reached for her but she moved away quickly."You aren't dead? Or sick or anything. You're healthy and alive""Yes," Agnia cried."You left me" sienna's tone was accusing."All my life.....you never came to find me""I wanted to. Believe me, I really wanted to but I couldn't. Thorne would have had me killed the moment I stepped foot onto his land""You never tried"Agnia hung her head in shame."You didn't even try to get me""I'm sorry" she mumbled."Why didn't you run away with me too?"
The days got better but Rome's work didn't reduce in the slightest. I offered to help but he refused each time. I tried several times to bring up Xander's case but he dismissed it each time. It worried me to see the bags under his eyes."Are you listening to me at all?" I asked him with folded arms. "Yes. And I'm assuring you it's Omar. I can take care of it""You're barely getting any sleep""There's a lot to be done. I can't just leave it""I'm not asking you to leave it. I'm asking you to get help""I'm fine" he brushed me off."Whatever" I started getting annoyed with his stubbornness."Do whatever the fuck you want to do. It doesn't matter to me" I stomped off and he let me go.Since he wasn't going to be a hardhead and do all the work himself, I wasn't going to stop him or ask him not to work. He could work himself to death if he wants to.'You don't mean that' my wolf scowled. Of course, I don't. I would never wish him death but he was so frustrated, why won't he try to get he
Life couldn't get any better for me. I had a loving mate, a wonderful new family and I was about to give birth to my child any day from now. I couldn't wait to hold the child in my arms. I often wished it'll come sinner but I can't be faster than fates. Strong arms wrapped around me and touched my rounded belly. I leaned into the touch of my mate. His warm hand touching our child through my belly caused warmth to spread through me.Rome was more eager to see the baby than I was. If he had his way, then our baby would have been here months ago. He never failed to show how much he loved and adored our child. Always kissing and touching my swollen belly."I told you to stay in bed" he whispered in my ear before biting my lobes as a punishment for defying his orders."I can't stay in bed all day""It's good for you. You should have enough rest until our pup is here""It gets so boring. If only you spent it with me"He turned me around so we were facing each other and he kissed me deeply.
Xander and WillWill’s PovI didn’t know how to feel about Xander but I was mostly upset with him. Yes, he had fucked up big time. But so had I. I asked for forgiveness and Frost had forgiven me. Rome had forgiven him too. He visited and asked him to return to the pack house as the beta but he refused. He would rather live like an outcast than become beta again. I didn’t like that he would want to wallow in self-pity, regretting his actions all the days of his life.‘Why are you with him?’ my wolf questioned. I liked him. I wanted something more with him. He said he wanted the same with me. But I didn’t know if I could be with him if he chose to never forgive himself for how he betrayed Alpha Rome.I continued on my way to Sileas's new residence. Since the war ended, the advisors were dissolved and their privileges are taken away. On one hand, it was best to do it this way. Loyalties were being shared when all should be loyal to the king.I had also been guilty of that. It was an acti
Third person povTwelve years later frost and Rome had lived the happiest lives they could. After the birth of their first son, she has two more children to add to him. Twin girls. Zaidee and Amala. Rome was smitten with the two girls. With his family. Years ago after he had lost his first mate, he didn't think that something like this could be possible. But here they were. Frost waved her hand in front of her mate's face and he snapped out of his thoughts."Are you listening to anything I'm saying?" She queued him.He had gotten lost while she spoke to him. Something that happened frequently these days. She had also gotten lost while staring at her mate's face. Counting the blessings of the moon goddess. "What do you suggest we do about it? He asked her and she shrugged."He is our child. He had Alpha blood and the powers from my lineage but he is too young to be that powerful. I fear""I've told you to remain calm and let's watch him for a while. Give him a couple of years"Frost s
My back ached terribly and I tried to walk upright but it was proving to be an impossible task. I needed to rest, my muscles screamed for me to rest but how could I truly rest if I didn't see Darren today? we had gone a whole week without seeing each other and this wasn't because we were not trying. 'Speak for yourself' the voice in my head whispered. I tried everything possible to get free and tried all I could to spend time with him and I'm sure he tried too even though my subconscious was trying to make me think otherwise. He was busy as well and he would have come to see me if he could. I on the other hand had not even a single chance or an option to see him. As an omega, I was the least in my pack. The lowest of the low and every day, I had so much work lined up for me to do. I barely had time to rest and it caused my muscles to ache non-stop. But the burning desire to see my lover pushed me. I would rest after I've seen him. I crossed the large training field, keeping my hea
The next day couldn't come fast enough. I spent the majority of the nights awake. And waiting at the first light of dawn, I climb down from my bamboo bed and grabbed my bathing supplies. The omega quarter didn't have bathrooms. We were only allowed to use the cold streams for a bath. It was still very early and only a few people moved around.I walked quickly in the direction of the stream. As soon as I was there I dropped my clean clothes and stripped naked. The cold air pinched through my skin and I shivered. I slowly descended into the cold water and I gritted my teeth. What I would give to be able to take a hot bath. The other wolves probably didn't understand how lucky they were to have proper beds and hot baths while the omega was forced to sleep on the hard floor or bamboo beds and to have cold baths. Hopefully, things would get better for me as the mate of the beta, I'll try to make sure omega's at least enjoyed some of these things. I quickly scrubbed my skin and when I was
I was still frozen in shock just looking at her and wondering what was going on. Why were they smiling at each other? Why... Why?"Darren" I called weakly and his eyes snapped to mine. The cold fury directed at me caused my heart to break even further."How can you do this to me" I cried but they paid me no mind. He led her to the front of the crowd and the wolves cheered loudly behind me. I couldn't stand it. I was going to fall apart if I continued to stay here. I couldn't watch this. I pushed blindly through the crowd, tears spilling from my eyes.I heard footsteps running behind me but I pushed myself harder. Someone roughly grabbed my arms and forced me to stop. When I turned around, I saw Tiana. "How could you?” I broke down again."You...." "Enough" she cut me off sharply."I'm tired of your blabbering. I wanted Darren first""But he is mine. He was supposed to be mine""Not anymore. He belongs to me now. I told you I always get what I want" Her words from yesterday replayed
