Sunday morning, Kelsey had just received a text message from Kate. She will be coming to the mansion with some women. They will be holding a meeting regards the forthcoming ceremony.

When Kelsey told Dennis about the women Kate was coming with that morning, he told Alice to drop by and advised Kelsey to invite Janet too. That way, she won't be lost among the older women.

Before the women arrived, Janet and Alice had assisted Kelsey in setting up the backyard. A large round table was placed in the backyard under a shade and stools were placed around the table. The table top carried a tray of fresh cookies, wine and glass jugs filled with juice.

Kate and the two women who were much older than her arrived at noon. They were led to the backyard by Kelsey. The weather was a bit hot so Kelsey felt the backyard was the ideal venue.

    Kelsey's smiley face was soon replaced by a blank one immediately after the bombshell dropped."Yes, Kelsey. When is your mating ceremony with Dennis coming up?"It then dawned on Kelsey that she had never thought about her mating ceremony with Dennis. They were yet to be bonded by blood and vow.Kelsey looked up and felt the women's eyes piercing into her soul. They were all wearing expectant faces."It's high time you and Alpha Dennis have your mating ceremony," Janet stressed. The rest agreed with nods."I was thinking about it and I wanted to talk to Dennis a few days ago but he was so occupied with running the pack but I think its time," Kate told them.Kelsey squeezed the paper she was holding and forced a grin."When one discovers his mate, the mating ceremony is held in a week or two." Meredith pointed out."Gilbert and I had ours in a week," Zoe replied.At that moment, Kelsey knew she was in a tight corner. The ground seems to have disappeared under her feet. She was feelin

    Kelsey returned to the backyard and met Janet clearing the table. She sighed in relief and joined her to do so."Thank you so much, Janet." Kelsey appreciated her and took the empty tray from her."It's nothing Kelsey. You know you can count on me anytime." Janet replied. She gathered the crumbs and stuffed them in the bin beside the table.The ladies cleared the table and moved to the living room. Kelsey sunk onto the couch and let out a groan of relief.Janet smiled and left for the kitchen. She returned with a bottle of cold water and passed it to Kelsey.Kelsey snatched the bottle away from Kelsey. "Thank you so much, Janet."Janet smiled. "So how are you doing Keley?" Kelsey drank the whole water in the bottle and took off her jacket. She flung it. "I'm doing great Janet but I'm damn tired.""Are you sure?" Janet asked.Kelsey sat up. Why is Janet so concerned about her wellbeing? Did she notice anything odd about her conversation with the women earlier? Could Janet be suspecti

    Kelsey heaved a deep sigh and trace her way down the stairs. She got to the living room and Dennis wasn't there. She moved to his room and gave a slight knock on his door."The door is open." came Denni's voice from the inside.Kelsey lingered outside for a few moments before she finally pushed the door open.Dennis was facing the bed with a black tee shirt in his hand. He was in brown shorts. He turned around and faced Kelsey. She stared at his bare broad chest and immediately looked away."I didn't know you were still getting dressed," she commented with her gaze still averted from his face.Dennis smiled and wore the shirt. "Are you going to stand there or take a seat?"Kelsey looked around and noticed a stool joined to the table beside his wardrobe. She grabbed it and sat.She cleared her throat loudly and Dennis arched his brow. She heaved a deep sigh and finally spoke."I want to go shopping.""Shopping? Okay.""I want you to drive me to the mall with Alice right now." "Okay, t

"I've been expecting you.""Did I keep the luna waiting?"They shared a hug and moved to Kelsey's room where Janet will be helping her get set.Kelsey took off her maxi dress and tired a towel across her chest. Janet pulled a stool for her and she settled before the large dressing mirror."I'll make sure you are dressed to kill tonight," Janet commented with a smile.Kelsey's face was covered with a sad smile. "You've worked so hard in planning this event Janet. It breaks my heart that you won't be part of it.""Oh come on Kelsey. Don't give me that look. We've talked about this right? You'll take pictures and make cool videos for me.""It will be way better if you were there in person. What if I don't get the chance to take pictures or make any videos?" Kelsey went on lamenting."Then it's fine. "

    Chapter 57"Yes." A round man who just walked into the scene agreed. "You guys don't need to plan a big event. It's your mating ceremony and no matter how small it is, it will count. After all, it's about the ritual, not the celebration."Dennis was forced to agree with a sheepish grin. "Of course, it's about the ritual, not the celebration.""So when are we having the event?" a lady asked. She was folding her arms across her chest and Dennis felt her intense gaze."Yes, Alpha. When is your mating ceremony? You guys ought to be mated by now."Kelsey knew that Dennis was losing control. He wiped the sweats banded on his forehead with the back of his palm and looked at her with defeated eyes."Very soon. The preparations are almost over ." Kelsey blurted."What?" Dennis whispered underneath his breath and tightened his grip around her.The people loosened their faces and Kelsey joined them with a fake smile. "I assure you all that we will be having our mating ceremony very soon." "That

    Chapter 58Kelsey heaved a deep sigh as dozens of thoughts came fluttering in her mind. What if she instantly becomes wordless on stage? She turned to stare at Dennis. He still had the approving nod and smile.She swallowed some air, took deep breaths and aimed for the stage. Kelsey was hoping that Dennis would accompany her to the stage, stay beside her till she was done with the vote or task or rather just usher her to the stage but instead, he sat there nodding like a lizard. Could she be expecting too much from him? Isn't all this a game of pretence? She couldn't help but wonder.The host invited Kelsey with an open palm. She took his hand and climbed the stage after flashing a quick smile at the man. She had been so engrossed in her thoughts that she didn't hear the applause and cheers that had been reigning from the moment she was invited on stage."God help me," Kelsey muttered under her breath and faced the crowd.She could feel the eyes of everyone on her body.

    Ben couldn't hide his surprise. He arched his brow at Dennis and asked. "You said you mentioned the event to her?"From the expression he could read on Kelsey's face, he could tell that she had no idea of what they were talking about.Kelsey looked up at Dennis with a tightened jaw. Why would he lie to his dad that he told her about the event when they both knew that he never mentioned it?Dennis ran his left hand through his hair. He faced his father after a sigh. "Dad, the truth is, I just mentioned it to Kelsey one time during a conversation. I'm not sure whether she recollects but I didn't tell her what the event entails," he explained.Kelsey still doubted him. If Dennis had mentioned the event, then it would have rung the bell. Nevertheless, she just had to go with the flow.She turned to Ben with a forced grin. "Well, I guess, it just skipped my mind judging by the fact that Dennis mentioned it and didn't shed more light on the event.Ben sighed. " I understand Kelsey."Dennis

    After what seemed like seven eternities to Denis, ~b~ was finally done. He traced the car out of the pack to an abandoned village just outside of it. It was like a small community of outcasts and displaced wolves that have fallen from grace or that needed a place to hide. A town of misfits, simply put. “I already sent for your men.” Peter said tossing Denis the car key.“I don’t need my men to kill that bitch.” Denis answered stomping out of the room.“But you might need them to clean up after.” Peter yelled running after him.Denis drove like he had more than one life. He grip the steering wheel the same way he intended to grip Janet's neck and his jaw was clenched so tight.“You're going to get us both killed!” Peter yelled. He also enjoyed driving fast but Denis was way past his speed limit and he was beginning to cherish his life way more than he ever did.“Hold on tight.” Denis said and went even faster than before, speeding past all the cars on the vast road.They were sooner t

    ~b~ arrived at the hospital after he had put theentire pack on lockdown. He texted Denis to inform him of his arrival and Denis called and asked him to meet them at the last door to the left, upstairs where they went to check security footage but the only thing ~b~ heard over all the loud whispers of the nurses was security footage.The whole hospital knew there was something big going on, rumors had spread like wild fire but just like every rumor, none of them were accurate. It was all hear-say, everyone has a different story of the same incident. When ~b~ asked for directions to the room where Denis asked to meet, no one asked him questions like they would have on a normal day. Peter, Denis and Ophelia were staring at thecomputer screen, the CCTV footage from the nursery was playing. Everything that happened there earlier was unfolding right before their eyes. They all watched the nurses put the baby in their cot and leave. They also saw them wave to the nurse in charge of the bab

    Denis stormed out of the room in anger pushing past Ophelia.“Make sure she’s fine.” He ordered pointing at an unconscious Kelsey before walking through the door. He ransacked his pocket to call the first person he always seems to call whenever there’s trouble. “There is a problem.” “I'll be right there.” ~b~ answered without any hesitations whatsoever “Wait.” Denis said without a warning that he was still on the phone and it almost made ~b~ jump out of his pants.“I need the entire pack on lockdown, no one goes in and no one goes out!”“Got it.” ~b~ said and this time remembered to end the call. Ophelia comes running towards Denis with yet another bad news. There’s only so much a man can take. “S—si—si” she stuttered because Denis' glare had made even the words scared of coming out.“Speak!” Denis yelled like he was not aware of the power of his glare.“Yo—yo—your wife.” His glare got even more intense, it was burning a whole through Ophelia's shaky body.“What happened to my

    Kelsey was brought to the healer’s house where she was to deliver her babies. Denis puthis hand over her shoulder and tried to pacify her but Kelsey was not buying any of it. She continued to scream and unconsciously scratch Denis neck with her claws but Denis didn’t mind it. He knew she was in pain and he could almost physically feel her pain too.“It’s going to be okay.” He told her but she glared at him and yelled that it was not going to be.“My babies are not due yet!” She told him and even though he lost track of the due date while he was busy searching for her and didn’twhether she was right or wrong, he nodded in agreement. The healer finally came to save Denis from his wife and she was taken to the delivery room.She still continued to yell at the healer but the healer had seen enough women in labor in her laugh time to know that Kelsey's behavior was completely normal. “You need to explain why my babies are coming now instead of the due date!” Kelsey demanded and the healer

    And there it was. The silence Denis literally killed for. Simon's manic laughter no longer filled the air and now what they were left with was Jerry’s silent sobs. “You better start talking if you know what’s good for you.” Denis said and Jerry starts to wail even louder. “I have no idea what he was talking about, I swear. Simon spent most of his years trapped inside a clinic, you can’t believe everything that came out of his mouth.” Jerry said vigorously wiping his tears while staring at Simon's body.“You’re the liar!” Kelsey shrieked. Denis arms were still wrapped around her keeping her in place. “I’m not lying I swear! I didn’t kill your parents.” Jerry continued to defend himself and it pissed Kelsey off even more. “I saw the fucking pictures, you sick stalker! I saw everything!” Kelsey finally blurted outhaving kept it in for too long, she had had enough of Jerry’s lies. Jerry went stiff, his tears that were falling endlessly seized and it seemed like something got stuck in

    The road to the cabin was hardly even a road. It was just a thick fog of leaves and trees, basically a forest but with tire tracks.“I thought you said your family used to come here?” Denis growled at Jerry when the car bumped into something for the umpteenth time. “We used to, like a million years ago.” Simon snapped back, he was in an uncomfortable state at the back, therefore taking all the hit of the car. He’d bumped his head a million times, he was sure it was going to give in and crack anytime soon.“I think they’re building something out here.” Peter commented. “These tire tracks, they’re not just your regular tire tracks, it’s definitely from a heavy machine, look how deep it sunk.”“I don’t give a shit what they’re building, it’s out of my jurisdiction and I just want Kelsey.” Denis answered and increased his speed ignoring every bump on the way and letting Jerry bear the brunt of it “It’s the other way.” Jerry said pointing with his head.“You better not be bullshitting

    Denis felt relief wash through his skin.Kelsey was fine. His woman was alive! He didn’t let the feeling of relief lag his brainthough.Kelsey was alive but she was also in danger and she had called him to rescue her. He couldn’t afford to make any mistakes.“Was that really Kelsey?” ~b~ asked worriedly when he saw the look on Denis' face. They were about to go another drive around the pack when he stopped walking and started acting like he was possessed and he could see ghosts but when he mentioned Kelsey, it started to make more sense.“Yes and I need your help with something.”Denis answered quickly. “What?” ~b~ asked readily. “I need you to help me find some place, Kelsey gave me a description but I can’t figure it out.”“Sure, I’ll grab my computer.” He said and ran back inside while Denis trailed after him with the same speed.Everyone turned to look at them when they burst through the door. “What’s going on?” Kate shrieked asking the question on everyone’s mind. “Kelsey reac

    His call didn’t last as long as Kelsey would have hoped which was forever. He was back in a few minutes and he returned to his initial position, only this time his knife was no longer with him. He had mindlessly dropped it when his phone rang a few minutes before, but he was still unaware that it was missing.“I can’t say this enough but I’m going to make you miserable.” Simon said and Kelsey sobbed, dabbing her tears with the back of her left hand and concealing the knife. She had stretched herself beyond her capacity trying to get the knife when Simon dropped it and she had succeeded and her it hurt a little below her belly. “I’m going to make you mine forever but I’m never going to love you.” His words were like stab wounds to Kelsey’s heart. Make her his?Over her dead body. “I’m going to put my seed inside of you and make you even more beautiful than you looked when he met you. I’m going to parade you with my baby in your tommy all over his face but I’m never going to love

    More days continued to pass and Kelsey couldn’t even keep track of when it was day or night, the cell was continuously dark and the silver cage was even worse. She had never been in such a small space for such a long period of time. Every part of her body ached and she wasn’t getting enough food. Simon only remembered to feed her at nightand on rare occasions he brought leftover pizza in the morning.She had no idea where she was, if she was still in the same city as Denis or even the same country and sometimes it felt like she was in an entirely different world.Her babies were kicking in her stomach uncomfortably. Everyday she prayed that she didn’t have to give birth to them in a silver cage. She talked to them when she was bored and sad and she was so sure that they listenedbecause they kicked her stomach in response. She told them stories like Denis used to every night even when she herself was asleep, she begged them to stay healthy and be patient for her to escape from the
