CHAPTER FORTY-FOUR

Hera’s POV

The alarm rings and I smile to myself before I stretch a little then I open my eyes and the first thing I see is the curtain to the closet.

I realize I'm facing Hugh with my back so I quickly turn around to face him and I see he's awake and watching me. I feel my face heating up and I look away from his gaze that makes me feel shy and he chuckles before he places his forefinger under my jaw and raises my face to look at him.

“Hey, good morning,” he says in a husky morning voice, and I can't help but smile at how cheesy this situation feels.

“Good morning” I squeak out and he pulls me closer before he kisses me on the forehead and he pats me on my head.

“Did you sleep well?” he asks me and I nod then he smirks at me.

“Hope you're not hurting?” he teases me and I gasp before I hit him on the chest while feeling embarrassed coupled with how shy I'm feeling.

“Hey, you shouldn't say that” I whine and he laughs out loud before he sits up and pulls me up alo

    CHAPTER FORTY-FIVE Hera's POVAfter our long drive, the driver drives into the surroundings of the house after the gate slides open and I admire the look of the place. There are flowers arranged around to beautify the place outside the house and there's a little hut house in a corner of the compound with chairs and a table. The mansion isn't too big too; it looks just enough for about five people and it gives off a homey feeling already without even entering inside yet.The place feels welcoming already and I like how it all feels simple and warm. The driver opens the door for us and Alpha Hugh steps out first before he comes over to my side as he gives me his hand to help me come out like the gentleman that he is. I smile as I give him my hand and I thank him once I'm out of the car. “You can busy yourself with any other activity while we're inside. We'll let you know when we're ready to leave” Alpha Hugh says to the driver and the man bows to thank him before he goes into his car

    CHAPTER FORTY-SIX Alpha Hugh's POVThe car comes to a halt on the tarmac at the airport and the driver opens the door for us. I step out of the car before I help Hera out and she smiles at me like she always does.A little part of me is wishing we don't have to go back to the pack because I never wanted to rule the place in the first place. I had no choice but to take over because I was the next appointed Alpha of the pack, but now that I've gotten a taste of this leadership and how it feels to be I'm control, I don't want to let it go. A part of me was wavering before; should I let the position go and disappoint my beta, gamma and zeta? Or should I stick to my position as Alpha and teach those bastards that want to overthrow me a lesson? I couldn't seem to come to a conclusion. That was until Hera gave me that long speech that night at the hotel that changed my thoughts and difficulty to make a decision. I know I'm falling for her the more, in fact, I know I'm already helplessly

She looks confused and clueless and I instantly feel myself relaxing as I realize that she didn't hear anything that I and Krystal talked about.I pull her into the room and take her night dress from her hand before dropping it on the bed.“I and Krystal were talking about those traitors that want to overthrow me and how we would tackle the problem,” I tell her even though it isn't necessary but I just don't want her suspecting what sort of discussion we were having.Krystal steps forward and smiles at her to play along with my explanation.“I'd better get going then Alpha. I'll tighten the security like you said I should and don't forget what you have to do too” she says and looks at me with serious eyes before she walks away.

Once I'm sure, I check the pocket of my time one last time to see if the wool is still there before I leave his room. Satisfied that I still have it, I smile and sigh in relief before I quietly tiptoe out of the room.I close the door behind me once I'm out and I rush for my room and enter quietly too so no one around would hear.I rush for my closet and I put on a pair of black jeans and a black shirt. It's best to mix with the darkness so no one would see me easily while I'm sneaking around.I take a black beanie and I put it on too because of my hair color. I can't risk giving myself away in case someone catches a glimpse of me in the dark. Once I'm done, I take the wool soaked with Hugh's blood out of my robe pocket then I place it in the pocket of my jeans before I take a bottle of alcohol along with me as I quietly leave my room and I clos

    CHAPTER FORTY-NINEKrystal's POVI had a bad feeling about tonight. Ever since that night when I saw Hera with those men at the museum, I just had a really strong feeling that whatever she was up to was going to get serious real quick and it would affect our pack too.I could see how uneasy and calculating she looked through her calm demeanor and that was when I made a mental note to make sure I watch every single movement she makes in secret because I could actually catch her doing something that would completely give her away.So I watched and followed. Ever since they returned from Alpha Hugh's parents' place, I have observed her. I knew the weight of having people trying to overthrow him was too much for Alpha Hugh to handle already so I didn't want to burden him with any more mood wrecking news. Except at that point, I didn't have a choice and had to let him know so he would help in keeping an eye on Hera too since they now seemed closer.Fast forward to the present, I'm staring

    CHAPTER SEVENTYHera's POVI'm still in a state of shock, still finding it hard to comprehend how people could easily give up their lives for one person that doesn't even care about them. It irks me to know how much power that Alpha Luggard has over the minds of his spies that he’s stationed and it angers me to know that they willingly let him manipulate them until they couldn’t even think for themselves anymore.I remember Isaac and how my long speech of convincing him didn’t work until he was caught and killed and he didn’t even give the name of any other spy while I cowered in fear of possibly getting exposed. If only I knew how hard minded they all were thanks to Alpha Luggard and his perfect manipulation.I sigh again as I sit in the car beside Hugh who’s driving and he holds our already linked fingers tighter while he spares me a glance from time to time to see how I’m doing.“That bastard, Luggard. I’m going to make him feel so sorry for ruining people’s lives as he dies” I say

I was still finding it hard to believe that I just ditched my pack and Alpha and if it weren't for Alpha Hugh who accepted me right from when I was willing to help them, I would be a rogue by now.I betrayed my Alpha so there is no way that he would forgive me or even think of taking me back because that is an irreversible act that I did and even if I had the chance to do it again, I would do it.That's how much Alpha Luggard infuriates me.Still hurting from my leg that I got hit when I and Hera were trying to escape and we fought with the guards, I start to limp when I get down from the van as we arrive at the pack and I see Alpha Hugh carrying Hera who's now asleep inside.I still feel sorry for her for how she had to watch her little brother die helplessly and how she couldn't even get his body due to the situation.I know it must be hurting her as hell but I know she's strong and with all of us by
