Arthur's POV

After I had registered Echo, when I came back, he was asleep.

I informed my secretary, Galaxie, that I will not be attending the annual meeting as Echo was on and off and it was a bit disorientating, so she suggested that we have a zoom meeting instead.

That took up most of the day, and by noon, going to evening, I had reports that my businesses that we're catering for, the Carpenter and Agricultural schools in Bangkok, Beijing, Shanghai, the Middle East, Russia, and Afghanistan were going as planned.

It was now dark out and the doctors have come and gone taking Echo's blood for tests the second nurse who came in with us, whose name I later learned was Letty, was changing the IV fluids to new ones which were already on the fourth pack of them.

My mind kept drifting back to a pair of amazon eyes, melanin skin, and a very specific low-placed bun in platinum hair. Mate...

The word continues to crowd my mind time and time again, it's like being at odds with my own body. Is

    Quin's POV We slept at the hotel, as per Dawn's instructions. We took our clothes with us as we wouldn't have to go back home. "You ready to go?" I knock on her door and urging her out her room. we were staying in a suite with two separate rooms as me and wailing babies at night don't vibe well. It was six o'clock and her school starts at seven. That is great because the hotel is close to the school, meaning I could easily drop her off and head in the opposite direction of where she works. Fun."I'll be out in a minute!" she calls out. I nod and head to the lounge. I take my phone out of my back jean pocket, and order us breakfast via room service. Scrambled eggs, with cheese, mushrooms, and 2 sausages, a slice of brown bread with jam and butter, and lastly, freshly squeezed orange juice, all for Dawn. She eats hearty meals from time to time;- and today was one of those days. She has a poster back at our house posted on the fridge which she follows. And today, well it's one of thos

    Quinn's POV We finished breakfast within the next few minutes, I, on the other hand, keeping to myself about the wolf dream, and the mystery guy I met the day before, and how I was feeling about the whole situation. We talk about other trivial things instead, that were not of significant importance to me. We finish our meal and head out. I check out, while Dawn heads to the car. I pay my dues, and meet her in the car. We don't say much to each other as the radio is already on low volume and snippets of this and that were going about the car. Within minutes, I arrive at her school and drop her off. I quickly head to work, a smile spreading on my face, making me look stupid. Blame it on my love for the babies and the children in need. Approximately fifteen minutes later, I reach the hospital, and I'm graced by Tomas with a clipboard, looking like he was waiting for me to arrive. I quickly sign in, and he immediately starts leaking. "We have a transfer child," he states, handing me

    Quinn's POV My breathing, hiccups. I turn back to Echo, whose grip on me is rather tight, and his father, comes back to life and he goes towards his son. At that moment, something in me awakens. Call it a motherly love, or getting too attached to the patient, but some in me gave. It gave access to my heart and I wanted Echo to be okay. I wanted him to heal, just like any other kid, but more than that, I was anxious that the IV fluids he still had on would be an overdose for him.He wakes up, and I try pulling my hand away, and he repeats what he had said a few seconds ago, making me stiff."Echo, that is not your mother," his father reprimands. "But father, she is." he insists, looking at his dad, then back to me.I smile instead. I know the kid has probably had one too many IV fluids and will need a break from them."It's okay, kids are often a bit fazed when they wake up, and they tend to say weird things," I assure the father, whilst still rubbing Echo's hands. I take out my di

    Quinn's POV The moment I got to my office, I entered and locked the door, and I breathe. And not normal inhale, exhale normal type of eish. No, I'm talking about heavy exhales, chest patting, with one of your hands on your knees, the other, on the wall for support after being chased by the neighbor's dog that has always wanted to devour you. "Well, it's about time." the head voice echoes. I'm shaking, and I don't know what's worse, having some crazy crush on a man with a kid, or this voice that just doesn't wanna go away. "About time for what?" I ask, my voice, trembling with a scare, and to say I was not terrified would be a lie. I mean, who wouldn't? I'm talking to myself, for goodness sake, shouldn't that be the reason to deem myself crazy already? if anyone would enter this room, they would think I'm starting to lose my mind, if it hasn't already been gone. "Calm down, you not losing your mind." the voice chuckles, "It's just good old Lia here. No harm meant, nor intended towa

    Sierra's POV I am awakened by a forest search. It was still early in the morning and since we have been searching for good food to eat in these woods, both I and my daughter was tired.We have been running and hiding since yesterday morning, although we are supernatural beings, I'd like to add, we have lost touch. I slightly touch her and she awakens. "Mother." she is now in full alert mode."We need to leave. They have found us." I mutter, packing up our makeshift bed and pillows. Yes, I am a werewolf, but before that, I am a witch, and I prefer comfort above all else. Oregon doesn't need to be told twice, and she is up. She is a hybrid too, the very few that are still alive. I take out a potion for noise alteration, it will deafen their ears to hear us moving so we are not easily caught, and I mix it with the invisible potion so they can't see us. I can sense them. It's five He-wolves with great strength and good fighting skills. I could easily drug them and knock them out, but

    Arthur's POVI end the call, with Sabre, and I call Nanna Ava. She replies on the third ring."How is Echo?" she answers."Nanna, he is fine.""You sure?" her voice shows of all her vulnerability."Yes, he is alive and kicking." I look at him smiling. "Listen, Echo still needs a doctor and I found one for him." I go straight to business. "She is a human doctor, and I'm not sure how the pack is going to take it." I explain."He needs a doctor? you losing me here. Why would Echo still need a doctor, what was his last diagnosis, and why would you take a human doctor?" I can feel Nanna pacing around the room now."They haven't found anything wrong with him. Well, more like they can't find anything wrong with him and Echo is tired of being here and misses you and Sabre. Mostly, he justs wants to come home.""What about the pack doctors?" she asks."In Windzare, for the awards and training," I brief her. "But the penthouse, why doesn't the doctor treat him there, why risk the pack?" she be

    Quinn's POV Because how? How was it so easy to get Mr. Alpha to agree with taking me with him? You wanna know? Lia happened. Lia had a nation of things to tell me and after telling me to brace myself, she wasn't lying. Honestly, it was a bit too much and I asked her to only tell me what I needed to know. She went off after that. She told me about me having a wolf inside me which was placed the by moon goddess and that Mr. Alpha was my mate. Now that explanation and how it works just had my jaw on the floor. One perfect half, the tingles, the sparks, the jealousy, the coffee pine water smell, and my eyes changing colors, it all made sense now. These were all connected to finding my mate. My perfect half. And it gets better, the wolf in my dream, that's Lia. That's the wolf I turn into when she gets out physically. Honestly, when she told me that, I freaked, and our conversation had to take an end as our lady nurses who were radiating nervousness and frightened entered my office. I

    Quin's POV "Excuse me what?" She repeats. "I think I'm about to be wedded to the guy with the kid from yesterday," I explain. "No you not about to do jack, you hear me? because that would be nothing but absurdity. You don't just meet someone, like him, or fancy him then decide on the whim of whatever that you are going through that you are going to marry him just because he smells like coffee or whatever your little reason to be. This isn't the 1950s. You don't just decide on crazy things and expect them to make sense. The chain of events in things has to make sense, and you haven't been making any since you met this guy. It's like all logic went out our little bathroom window from our apartment and it's the most confusing thing you have ever done. So what now, you gonna say he is going to divorce his wife just to be with you, are you crazy Quinnzel?" she just goes off at me."I will be away for three days. His son is still not okay, I volunteered myself to be a kid's doctor?" I in

    It It Arthur's POV When I get to the door, I stop. What if Winter felt wrong? I know that twins have a connection bigger than mate bonds as they are one. So if one is anxious, the other would feel it as if they are there, if the one is hurt, the other would hurt in the same spot. But what if? Just, what if he felt wrong? "I will take over your body and enter this room if you don't," Ares warns me. I open the door and there she is, standing right there, touching her hair. My heart stops for a second. "Are you real?" I whisper, dropping my phone. Quinnzel pauses, and her heart picks up pace. The moment, it does, I rush and crash into her, hugging her a little too tightly. I take in her scent, it's still as intoxicating and strong. I grin, feeling a sense of completion with her around. "I am real," she coughs. "You squeezing too hard," she adds, and I loosen the grip."Sorry," I mutter, still hugging her. We just stand there, holding on to each other like the world is ending. I a

    Quin's POV"Quin," I hear a voice calling me in the darkness and I stop. The voice is monotone, and I can't tell whether it's a man or a woman. I look around with my glowing eyes, but I see nobody. I look at Acai, who also shakes her head. But what I know and am certain of, somebody did call me, and it gave me chills. But I shrug my shoulders, and pretend we didn't hear anything and we continue walking. I am not sure how long I've been out here, and how much longer this has to go on.All I know is that I haven't been hungry or had the urge to use the toilet nor have I felt a tiny ping of wanting to sleep. This is discouraging because it feels like I've only walked for a day or two max and this might take more than that. "Quin," the voice calls out again. I stop yet again and look around to no avail, starting to get freaked out. I try to take a step to see if the voice calls out my name again, and this time I am not surprised, but freaked out. "Quinnzel O' Conner!" the voice beams,

    Winter's POVIn approximately ten minutes, we meet Luca. From a distance, her medication spread is already ready to be utilized. Luca has an SUV, and her boot space is enough to assist Marie. We stop the car when we meet hers, and before Dawn gets out of the car, Luca gives Marie the first injection through the window so she she able to breathe. We then open the door, Dawn rushes to place Marie in the boot. Luca then injects Marie with a UV fluid on both arms, switches on a portal fan, and places the fan over her head."What's she doing with her?" she looks at me, anxiously."She's trying to get her energy back. Have you never seen her being treated?" I cue. "No, the doctors back in the city don't allow that," she clarifies. "Well, I always want to know what's happening. But don't worry, our daughter is going to be okay," I try to console her, whilst Luca opens her onesie and puts allergy pads on her chest."What are those?" she continues."Allergy pads. It's to level her breathing

    Lucinda's POVAfter packing, I head down, and Shadow is on a phone call with someone, well, more like he is yelling at someone over the phone. "Don't tell me that Lucien! I specifically told you that the investors were coming in today, therefore the Maimi deal should be finalized by then," I could feel his anger radiating through the whole room, and I know that he feels my presence so he tried to finalize the call in a much calmer tone. "Can you please get this done before I get to the office? I will stall the guys. Is that possible?" he asks the other person whose name I believe is Lucien. He nods his head then and he ends the call."I can hear your heartbeat you know," he utters and I come into view. "Hey," I sheepishly laugh, waving."You ready to leave?" he inquires."Sure," I come down with my suitcase and he takes it and carries it for me."Sorry about that," he starts as we head towards the car."Sorry about?""The yelling. I was frustrated at Lucien. There is some work I as

    Lucinda's POVAfter Queen Mother leaves, I feel lighter. Like I have someone I can trust. There is something about her that makes me want to tell her how I am feeling, and how much whatever I went through hurt me and she doesn't come with a judging heart or a mocking face, but she brings warmth, and for me, that is something I've always craved for, a friend. I hope she is one. I focus on what she asked me for. The wishlist. I sit on the couch and I start thinking hard and wide. What's the one thing that I've always desired? My list would be long if I would start from when I was a kid. But before I can jotter down anything, I call Meriya to help me get a pen and a paper. She comes back with it and I sit on the island to start my list. It doesn't have to be realistic, I tell myself, but it has to be what I've always wanted to do. Queen Mother said she would be a genie for one day, and maybe she could help me achieve these dreams.She doesn't have to help with everything, I mean, I th

    Eliza's POVThe past two days were well spent. Lucinda is an interesting child indeed. Besides her life story that she thinks defines her, her character, her personality, her smile, and everything good reminds me of Rue. How she could have grown, how she would have smiled, what type of wolf she would carry, the strength she would possess, and with all that, how I would want to protect her. How I would want to see her happy. How I would want her to have all the love that she proceeds her.And when I look at Lucinda, I want all of this for her. The love, the happiness and the joy, as the Luna of this pack, and as my son's fiancee. I want her to have the best mother-in-law. I can be her in-law by the rules and regulations of this world, but I know that by now, our relationship as a family will be anything but quiet, random, and normal. It's gonna have flare, sparkles, and tiny big promises and everything she has ever wished for as a child, and what she desired as she grew up. "Roughly

    Nanawe's POV"So, this is what is gonna happen gentlemen and esteemed ladies, I am going to go home and ask Miss Dawn, the future Luna of Windazare if she would fancy staying in Erza for a month, and if she says yes, consider yourselves lucky, and if not, well, good luck trying to convince her to stay. I mean, she already doesn't see eye to eye with the counsel since some people, I won't mention names, are so keen on having her killed." I clear my throat. "Nanawe!" Claudius calls out."Yes love?" I smile at him, tilting my head. No matter how angry this man is with me, I am still head over hills for him, I still act like a child. "Are you trying to rebel against the counsel?" he raises a question."Oh goodness no. I would never do that. This couple just reminds me of someone I didn't save before. I guess you could say I am trying to make amends for it," I look at Arthur, trying to not get emotional."Is this based on your emotions?" Phoenix replies and I can feel his aura being enra

    Dawn's POVAfter getting ready as Queen Mother has instructed, I feel the need to visit Quin. Baby Marie will be staying with Nanna Ave, and Sabre will be keeping an eye on Quin and Echo. The rest of the house will be going. So when I am done, I quickly head to where Quin is sleeping. When I get there, Sabre is standing guard and he freely lets me in. I enter the room and Quin is just lying there. Her eyes are closed and for the first time, I want her to talk. Even if she will go on about neurosurgery or whatever she does, I just want her to open her mouth. I feel my breathing getting choked up, but still, I will myself to get closer to her. When I am within arm's length, I take her hand into mine, and I sit down, tears rolling down my eyes. "Hey Quin," I smile. "How are you, girl?" I wipe my tears. "So about the mate thing that you spoke about, well, you were right, I have one too," I chuckle. "Crazy right?""You know Winter? Yeah, his my mate, and he is the same Winter whom I've

    Winters POVShe came for me. Yes, I know she was probably asked by my mom to check up on me, but the fact that she agreed to do it meant a lot to me. I am not sure how to respond to what my mom did to me, and in a way, I am trying to put myself in her shoes, but I am failing to comprehend how she did what she did and still lived without regret in her heart. For her to separate us to keep us safe is one thing, but choosing to let us stay separated is a choice she could have undone. I could have met my sister in the city if she wasn't sure how she would turn out, and we would have had a bond. I would protect her with my life and maybe then, I would have found my mate sooner. But no, she did what she did, and I don't know how to look at her without anger and disappointment in my heart. "Dawn, if your mom did what my mom did, what would you do?" I ask her. "I would slap her," she utters, seemingly contemplating her response."What?" I wasn't expecting that."That would be my first tho
