View MoreAs I finished up from teaching and the last pup was picked up, I made my way to the pack house. My baby girl was staying with her father today. Over the course of two years, many things had changed. My heart especially and that is why I'm trying to pick up my daughter without running into her father. “Arcelia?” Landon was the first person I saw as I arrived at the pack house. “I'm surprised to see you here”“I finished early so I decided to pick her up myself”“Come on in. She's with the alpha. They should be in his office.”“No,” I said quickly and he raised a brow at me. “Okay” I can bring her downstairs to you” I smiled at him. “I'll appreciate that” he chuckled and we entered inside. While I waited downstairs, he went upstairs to get Imogen for me. Yes, I named her in honor of my best friend. The thought of her demise didn't hurt me so much anymore. Like I said, my heart had changed and I let go of resentment which means I have forgiven those who had killed her. Two years is a
ALPHA TEIGEN's POV"Everything is going smoothly," Landon said as he entered my office."I know. I spoke to Viviana""How are you feeling?" I chuckled at the question. He was the first person to ask me this. Not that I was looking for sympathy or pity but it kind of felt good to know that he was concerned."I've seen better days. I'll be fine. I just want her to be okay""And Miyanda, do you honestly not want to see her anymore? She's still your sister"Of course, someday I'll look at Miyanda and I'll not feel like tearing her apart. But it wasn't today. Not anytime soon."She's sorry""Yes. Her apology can magically change the past""Don't you think it's a bit hypocritical? You want Arcelia's forgiveness but you won't forgive Miyanda""It's her fault we're in this situation. I acted out of foolishness but it was because I thought Miyanda had been murdered. She had no reason to do what she did""I get. But she's not responsible for your actions""She contributed to it. I'm not trying
Firstly, I didn't think Alpha Teigen would easily agree to me moving out of the pack house. But then I had to use the situation to my advantage. The house was ready two days after I made the request and I was already moving in. Viviana and a few guards were helping me.They were constantly communicating with the alpha but he didn't show himself which was perfect.The last of the things were set up and I thanked them for their effort."I'll go and get some groceries to make some food. Will you be okay by yourself?"I nodded. She was constantly worrying about me. That was why I didn't want to tell her anything about my suspicions. The constant vomiting, nausea, and the rest were symptoms of something I didn't want to believe was true. Not at this time. It would only make things more messy.I took a shower and changed into lighter clothes. The house was wonderful, well-furnished, and somewhat similar to my old apartment.Since I was staying here permanently, I needed to find a job. It wo
ALPHA TEIGEN's POVI drank the remaining contents of the cup and poured myself another. This wasn't the solution to the current problems but there was nothing I could do.Regret clawed at my heart. More than the anger I was feeling. She wouldn't talk to me or open her door for anyone. I could still hear sounds inside that is why I haven't broken down the door.Alfio entered my office with a grim look on his face."She opened her door" my eyes snapped up."Viviana is with her now. But I doubt she'll want to see anyone at the moment""I just want to know that she's okay""Will she truly be? I can only imagine what is going through her head right now. I knew there was something off about the whole case in the first place. It makes sense now"I should have listened to Alfio but I let my foolish anger consume me. "I'm a fucking fool""Dwelling on the past will do nothing for you now. You have to think of a way to make things better. To earn her forgiveness" "She said she'll never forgiv
I felt weak in my knees. If I was standing, I would have fallen over. "What the fuck Miyanda?" Alfio was screaming. I've never seen him upset like this. Someone else shouted something. "I'm sorry. I'm sorry" Miyanda cried. I gripped the material of my dress tightly in my fingers. It cannot be. Everything..."Do you know what you've done? For fucks sake Miyanda. I thought they murdered you. Do you know what I've done since I started receiving those parts?" Teigen yelled at his sister. "I didn't think you'll take it that far""You didn't think? You know me. You know how angry I get. You used that to your advantage. You wanted me to torture them" he continued yelling and I just sat there, my head spinning while I still tried to wrap my head around everything. She faked her death? It was laughable. I had to resist the urge to not laugh out loud at the madness. She fucking faked her death. "Why did you bother to show up" Alfio screamed. "You should have remained dead. Do you know the
I don't understand. What... how was she here? I rubbed my eyes because I started to feel I was hallucinating. Maybe one of those dreams that I usually had. It could be stress. Or maybe this person has a similar face to that woman. Was she a twin? I shook my head, getting rid of those thoughts. It couldn't be. I may have only seen her once but I remembered her face correctly. She was real..... and alive."Miyanda" someone brushed past me and I saw alpha Teigen hugging her tightly and checking her."You're alive... how?""I'm so sorry" she sobbed tearfully. I was rooted to the floor, confused as fuck, and watching her."What are you sorry about Miyanda? What happened tell me" he led her to one of the empty chairs."You're okay. Where have you been""Alpha" Aldrid bathed in."We tracked the human to the pack house"What human I wondered?"Find whoever it is and...""It was me that went past border patrol," Miyanda said and everybody faced her again."You're alive" Aldrid mumbled, experi
"I don't understand why you feel the need to work" Viviana grumbled at me. "Isn't it better than sitting idle?""I understand you don't want to be idle but scrubbing the floors?""Do you have a better job for me""Sitting around pretty all day. It's not like you get paid for this""I still want to do it. How is it going with the children?""Alfio's cure seems to be working. He's not such a pain in the ass anymore""That is good for you. Very good" she mumbled. "Alfio was proposing that the alpha allow some people to go to your world and learn from you but the alpha was against it" I snorted. It would be beneficial to the pack but he only likes to do things that he wants. He doesn't care about the opinion of others or if they get hurt or...hold up Arcelia. We're going off track. "Well did he say why he was against it""Mhmmm. It's a solid reason and before you say I always support him, I'm not doing that right now. His reason is completely logical. While the alpha may be terrible as
Alpha Teigen's povA week after our huge argument and I only felt worse than I did before that. It was wrong of me to bring her mother into the situation. I had not been thinking properly and she had every reason to be upset with me. I just wasn't thinking."Alpha" Landon called me and I looked up at him."What's wrong?""You've been unhappy and I know it's not my place but you're hurting yourself.""Landon. Report on official matters and leave my personal life alone""He's just being difficult Alfio said""What's the situation with the children""The rashes disappeared from two children, we have four more new cases now""I thought we were isolating the affected?""Yes. The children didn't get it from them which leads me to believe that bodily contact is not the cause of the spread. There is something else. Maybe a place only children visit. Their getting from there or eating something from there""Please look into it. I've got several disturbing calls in the last few days. Parents ar
"Are you going to tell me why you were here yesterday, bawling your eyes out""It's nothing, Viviana""Are you sure?" "Landon was here after you slept off. He looked worried. Did something happen with the alpha" I scoffed. "Does it matter? He'll always be right to you""Arcelia?""Just forget about it. I was foolish. It was my mistake""Things were going so well. I just don't understand it""I don't either but it's probably for the best this way" I've learned my lesson and I won't be making the same mistake twice. When I went out finally, the stares were too much. I could imagine what was going through their heads. I arrived to grab the supplies but someone blocked my path. "What's wrong? We have strict instructions not to let you clean anymore""Why?" I was bewildered. "I don't know. Alpha's orders. You have to see him to answer any question you might have" I groaned and moved away. Was he going to take everything away from me? Everything I enjoyed? I didn't want to see him. I di
I clutched my bag tightly as I walked down the sidewalk. The day was sunny and bright and I could hear laughter from the people around me but I didn't dare look up.My face was swollen and red from all the crying I had been doing the whole morning. My phone rang continuously in my bag but I ignored it.Today was the worst day of my life. The absolute worst. Just one finding had managed to scatter all my happiness of the last two years. Everything.Everything was going well until the strange feelings of doubt started. The feeling that something was wrong with Blaed. The late night conversations, the constant disappearance and no reasonable explanation, I just knew something was wrong. I ignored it in the first few months and maybe I should have continued ignoring it because I wouldn't have to deal with this right now.I entered the restaurant and looked around while trying to hide my face still. Imogen was nowhere to be seen. I took a table away from the eyes of everyone and out of e
