—Alpha Leo's POV— “Am I wrong Leo?” She asked me and I had no words because she was right. I did choose Scarlett and Lena hadn't turned out to be the doctor, I truly don't know if I would've seemed her out to apologise. “You're right, I did choose Scarlett and in that moment all I thought about was myself and how happy I was that she was back in my life, nothing else mattered, you didn't matter. But time passed and I realised how cruel I was because you didn't deserve to be treated like that and the truth is I didn't bother to find you because I was a coward, I didn't know how you would react. But when I say I am sorry, I mean it Lena, I'm so sorry for what I did to you, for rejecting you that way and for the loss of the baby.” I tell her and I hope she can see how sincere I am. She doesn't say anything for a while, she just stares at me. “Thank you.” She says as then she continues walking which I take to mean she doesn't want to talk about this subject anymore
—Lena's POV— As soon as I enter my lab, I lean against the wall and let out a huge sigh of relief. I did it, I survived spending time with him. I didn't think I could, but I did. He seemed to believe my lie about the kids also and he also seemed very sincere with his apology but it still doesn't change what he did to me. Also there was some serious tension between him and Scarlett, looks like all is not well in their paradise, I need to go home, see my kids, have a glass of wine and talk this over with Zoey. I look at my watch and it's just one in the afternoon, I can't leave now, I still have time to kill. I push Leo out of my mind and walk into the lab. “Good afternoon Doctor Everhart.” Emmett, my lab assistant greets me. “Good afternoon Emmett, did you just get in?” I asked him and I looked around the lab and see that he had already started working, he has washed all the beakers and they're currently drying while one set is getting sterilised. “Yes, I c
—Alpha Leo's POV— I couldn't sit still after my talk with Zeo, he left to go talk with Gabe and then I answered the emails that I had and signed some documents that Zeo left for me on my table. Since the whole disease he had taken over day to day running of our business in the city because all my focus had to be on the pack and finding a cure. After I was done with all of that, I still couldn't sit still, I had this feeling in my gut that something was wrong but I didn't know if I should trust it, it could just be me wanting an excuse to spend more time with Lena. I sat down for another ten minutes but I couldn't do it anymore, I got up and left the house. It had been about two hours since I last saw her and if I got there and nothing was wrong she would think that I'm stalking her so I better come up with a good explanation. I got to the entrance of the lab and her assistants car was gone but there was another scent that wasn't Lena's, a scent that I would rec
—Lena's POV— The moment they left, I let out a huge sigh of relief and slumped down on my chair, I did my best to hold back my tears. How dare she? She knew how to hit me where it hurt, she knew just what screw to twist, yes I am now rich and successful, but I wasn't always like that. It's true what she said, my parents were poor farmers, but it never bothered me because we were comfortable just the three of us, we had food to eat and we were happy. It wasn't until I started attending school that's when it started to bother me, I was bullied every single day because of my status and it also didn't help that I was born an omega. That's why after all those years of constant bullying it came as a surprise to me when Leo asked me to marry him, I thought it was a joke or a prank at first but then he showed me how serious he was and after that, people stopped with the insults and talking behind my back. Even after Leo rejected me, I did my best to come up in this world
—Lena's POV— Zoey sounded very dangerous at that moment. “You need to calm down Zoey, remember you promised. Plus I'm fine, she didn't do anything to me, luckily Leo came in at that moment and even if he didn't I would've handled it myself. So please take a few deep breaths for me.” I tell her and after a few moments she takes a deep breath and retracts her claws. “I'm calm now, don't worry, I won't go off and rip off that bitch's head, at least not today.” She says with a smirk on her face. I don't say anything, because with Zoey that's as good as I'm going to get it. “So, what did Leo do?” Zoey asked. “He apologized to me and dragged her out of there, she didn't seem happy about it.” I told her. “I bet she wasn't, but what's the deal with the both of them. I thought they would be living la vida loca but it seems like something is wrong with their marriage.” Zoey finally voices out what I've been thinking. “Yeah, I think so too.” I t
"You're two weeks pregnant Luna Selene."I arched my brows, utmostly surprised when I heard the pack doctor break the news to me. I had no idea whether to be happy or sad, but I wanted to show my happiness.A smile carved at the corners of my lips, and I rubbed the tears that brimmed the corners of my eyes clean because the news was worth it.I had been waiting to hear this for three years after I got married to my husband, Alpha Leo. My husband, Leo and I had been married for three years, but I wasn't able to conceive. I had one most important duty, and that was to bear him an heir for the future of the pack, and every day, the gossips about my inability to bear a child became so toxic. Last time, Leo silenced those rumors and gossips, but I knew that as a strong and famous Alpha, he needed an heir to carry on his legacy. The pack needed an heir to ensure his bloodline never ceases.3 years ago, on my eighteenth birthday and the first day the moon goddess would present a wolf to me,
Very early the next morning, I woke up feeling less pain from last night's incident, still unable to believe what had happened. I had no idea why Leo suddenly changed last night, and as he walked away, I could see a totally different man in him. The way he spoke to me last night made me feel like he had a deep hatred buried down there for me.I sighed deeply, and decided to think positively. We had a child to raise together now, and that was enough reason and encouragement I needed to resolve any misunderstandings between us and find out what I had done wrong.I rose to my feet and reached for my phone on the couch. Leo had blocked my line from calling him. Thinking thoroughly, I suddenly realized I had not even the slightest idea where he could be or where he had gone through. I was worried he could be in the hands of another woman, and only that would shatter me completely.Feeling so frustrated, I decided to call my best friend Zoey. She picked almost immediately after the first
I stood at my spot, transfixed at what I had just seen. I could tell she was just as surprised as I was seeing someone who looked just exactly like her and bore the same marks as her.I had always had to hide the mark on my shoulder because my parents made me believe it was an abomination, even though I was never told why I had such. I always thought I was the only one who had such a mark in the entire world, but today I was proved wrong. Again, I felt even more insulted and disgusted that Leo had cheated on me with a girl who looked like me.Zoey, clearly furious, walked up to the stage and snatched the microphone from the DJ's in order to get the attention she needed. "Zillion club doesn't support cheaters, you over there, how dare you kiss someone else's mate?"The entire venue immediately went silent, and murmurs from the crowds filled the air."Why is she here?", "Why do they look so much alike? Who's the real Selene here?"Hearing people murmur things like this, I realized that
