Dr Mallow had called him just minutes after Mira left the hospital to deliver the big news. He was going to be a father. He was unsure how he felt, shocked maybe, confused a little but also he felt a kind of happiness he couldn't express in words. He wanted to tell Aunt Sara immediately but she wasn't home, she was on one of her spirit cleansing hikes and won't be back for a few days. He told Lady Ann and together they sprung into action, asking the maids and housekeeper to restructure the Luna's room. They went as far as clearing out a room for the baby. His baby. By evening, everyone were impatiently waiting for Mira but she was still not back. And by midnight, Alex was already frantic with worry."Where is she?" He growled as James came inside from his third search."Still no clue Alpha" James said quietly with his head bowed low scared to his bones, he dare not look into the Alphas eyes. He was responsible for keeping her safe and he had failed. If the Alpha ordered his execution
"I've a bad feeling about this" Caleb said to Alex as he walked briskly to where the body laid lifeless. The body was already oozing which was almost too much for werewolves with over sensitive noses to handle. But they couldn't leave any stone unturned. Caleb walked back to Alex who was in a more confused state than when they got there."This dead man is on our guard uniform, do you think he was working with someone from the pack?" Caleb merely said what they were all thinking but stopped once he heard Alex growling. He looked Alex in the eyes before he continued talking. "Could this be somehow linked to the attacks on the villa?" Alex raked his fingers through his hair. It looked like it hadn't been washed in days."Gosh all these is confusing and nothing is leading to my mate!" Alex growled in frustration"We will keep looking into it sir" the man said and went back inside the house"Alex let's leave here before you lose it" Caleb said and they walked back into the car.Meanwhile
Alex have been trying so hard to put himself together for his tribe even as he felt like tearing himself apart.He can't afford to lose Mira as he lost his parents."Alex dear, would like to follow me to the new pack house that daddy is building? It's still on construction but I would like to see how far it has progressed" his mum said"Of course mum" young Alex said as he too a small bit from is apple "of course I'll like to follow you"Okay, after your classes at school today, I'll pick you up and then we'll go" Alex mum said"Alright mummy" the kid nodded"When you're done with your breakfast come to your father's study I'll be there waiting for you so I can drop you off" his mum said"What happened to my driver?" Alex asked"I just feel like dropping you off today" his mum shrugged"Don't disturb yourself" the little kid tried acting matured"I know" his mum chuckled and pat his soft hairIn Alex mind he was beyond happy that his mum will be dropping him off today little did he kn
"Dad I'm sixteen, I'll soon change will you be there for me or I should go ask my aunt too?" Alex grew up with no attention from his dad but today he would force it out of his dad it's been too long, he needs a dad now more than ever"There's a full moon today and that's when it will happen, stay here with me till then, I'll walk with you to the woods" he said, his dad knew he needed to be there for his son on this no matter how locked up he had been he never hated his son, but for the unhealed heart he had he needed to stay away from his son that reminds him so much of his mate.As the full moon rose up, Alex and his dad took a walk into the woods and when it was the painful time to transform Alex groaned in pain, but as his father's hand rested on him he felt calmer and endured until he had changed fully and turned back to his human form it was easier because his dad had passed energy into him through their bond."Get some rest, from tomorrow you'll start learning how to be an Alpha
Mira held Alex's huge hands with her little ones and gestured for them to move, Alex didn't mind staying under the moon looking at just her Al night but seems like she's cold already, he had to respect her wish to, if she wish to introduce him to her mom he doesn't mind, but he wishes that her mom would accept him, he was a bit scared that her mum wouldn't like him and might hate him for kidnapping her daughter, as he remembered that he stopped."Wait babe" Alex stopped her"Is there a problem?" Mira asked"Not really but.." Alez tried looking fir the words to use"They might started getting worried because I've been out for long" Mira said"They?, It's not just your mum?" He asked"No my mum and Hugh" she replied"Hugh?" Alex said, he felt anger seeping into his mood already and Mira was immediately able to read it in him"His my brother" she said simply clarifying his thoughts"What?, How that even possible?" He asked"Let's get inside first" Mira said"I'm just abit unsure because
They talked about a few other things about how Alex villa was and all before they called it a night, Laura insisted that Alex stays with them until Mira mind is ready to go back with him. She gave him a neat room just for himself "hope you like it" she asked "Of course" he replied and went inside, he looked around and it immediately felt like home for him, the dark color of the room made it seem his type, although the bed and closet were not like his luxurious room in the pack house he still loved it."Okay good night" Laura left the room and went to her daughter's room to wish her good night tooAlex rested on the bed, before he let sleep capture his mind he thought of all that had happened today, it was more than what he could imagine, he finally drifted to sleep smiling.At the entrance of Mira's room Laura noticed Hugh entering his room."Good night mum" he said"Wait Hugh" she called"Yes?" He walked up to her at Mira's room entrance"Alex seems okay to me, how do you see him?"
After they were done with the meal, as if there was an invisible alarm Alex walked in as Mira walked down the stairs"Baby, why do you look exhausted" Alex asked as he approached Mira "did you get a good sleep?" He asked"Not really, couldn't sleep, just drifted out a little this morning" she said as she held her stomach"Should we go for check up this morning?" He asked, Alex was already worried, wondering why she stayed up late with the pains without letting anyone know"Okay we will, let's have our breakfast I'm starving" she said and Alex walked down with her."Breakfast is ready, you guys are right on time" Hugh said as he untied his apron"You look good on that uniform" Mira chuckled"Good morning to you too" he bowed playfully"Why do you look pale Mira" her mum immediately noticed too"I couldn't get enough sleep" Mira said "What could be the cause" her mum passed her a plate of pancakes and a cup of herbal tea that Hugh had made"Thanks, It the baby" she replied and smiled a
"I'll think about it mum" that was all Mira could say for the now, she doesn't want to make any decisions in a haste so she won't make the wrong one.Very early in the next day lulu and Luke came over to the house, Mira didn't know that the boys had planned to go for a workout morning the previous day and they won't be back till the afternoon.Alex and Hugh were dressed in sport shorts, Mira couldn't help but notice how hot Alex looked in shorts and a basket ball tank top. He probably don't even know who person's name written on the jersey was because he's a werewolf."I can see how much you're lusting just by scenting you" Alex whispered in her hear, she didn't even know when he got close to herMira's cheeks turned crimson immediately and she felt like teenager that was caught watching porn."Well you look dreamy this morning I would have loved to use you for my walk out but I can't dish the boys" Alex said only to her hearing as they stood at the entrance of the living room, meanwh
“mummy!” Hugh cried, scared. His mother looked back at him with tears filled eyes. Loren carefully looked out the window and Hugh followed his mother's eyes. From where he stood he could see clearly the impending danger. He stared hopelessly at the pack of wolves approaching, accompanied by other werewolves who were still in their human form holding up torches and pitchforks. It looked exactly like a scene cut out of an old with hunting movie. This pack didn't give a damn that it was the twenty first century. They were out for blood and even him at his age knew it. Loren walked back to her son and crouched next to him so that they were eye to eye. She had a sad smile on her beautiful face. She was looking at him but her eyes seemed so far away. Her mind was probably on her husband _his father, who had gone out to defend them from the mob.“Listen to everything I’m going to say now darling." Loren said to a confused Hugh. Her voice was thick and sounded shaky like she was holding back
"Mira, you know nothing about being a mother! Why don't you want me to come over or why not come over? whichever one you decide." Loren whined over the phone for the umpteenth time. Loren had taken her time preparing a room for her grand child at her house, hoping Mira would spend the first few months after the baby is born with her, but Mira had continually declined her offer."No mom. I'm okay and besides, the baby is not out yet." Mira responded laughing. Mira turned to smile at Alex who looked completely lost while trying to couple the wooden cradle Alyssa had gotten for them. It was archaic and the instructions were in their mother's tongue but he insisted on fixing it without her help. She was in her ninth month and he didn't let her as much as lift a pencil on her own. Since she got back to the villa, things had changed. Alex was so different now, caring and always watching her every move like he was scared that she would vanish if he wasn't too careful. Her mother wasn't any d
A gentle ruffling sound coming from the bed, stirred him slowly to a numbing consciousness but it was her tired voice that woke him up completely. "My love" Mira whispered as she struggled to keep her eyes open to see more of Alex that was sitting beside her."How do you feel" Alex held her hand and rubbed it with his thumb "I just feel like living this place, it sickens me" Mira complained"Let me call your mum, she's out side talking to the doctor, she should know you've woken up" Alex said "Okay" Mira sighed Alex got up and gave her a warm kiss on her forehead head, he stood there longer than usual, he was very relieved that she had finally woken up. He finally withdraw from her and went to get her mum."She has woken up" Alex said on getting to were Loren stood"Really?" Loren eyes lightened up with a smile slowly forming on her face"Yea" Alex answered obviously Loren was beyond happy, she practically ran to the room where Mira was lying in "Mum" Mira called as she saw her
In the week that followed Alex stayed rooted to Mira's side, watching and patiently waiting for her to wake up.the doctor had given them the news that Mira was in a coma but it wasn't life threatening to her or the baby. He said that it may take days or years before she woke up. The duration wasn't certain. Alex sighed as he stared at Mira. His Mira. He felt a strong urge to go immediately and snap the neck of the culprit but for now they only had loose clues and he couldn't bring himself to leave his wife's side.James had arrived at the hospital that evening of the accident, after Alex had instructed him to meet Sophia for more details on how she knew about the bomb but James came to report that Sophia was missing. Their only solid source to what was going on, and she was missing. After that day James and Hugh went to look for more clues to find and take down the culprit. But after one week and no word from them, Alex was openly irritated.He was fuming now and didn't hear his ow
"So what did you do today at the villa" Mira asked just for the sake of bring up a conversationAlex thought of outing out the part were he met up with his ex but decided to be completely truthful since he didn't do anything bad, he is not meant to act guilty, he could only wish that Mira will not misunderstand it."I had a talk with Sophia" Alex said "Hmm, a talk?" Mira raised a brow"Yea, just to put things in order so that it won't creat any unnecessary enemity between us in the future" Alex explained"Okay, if you say so" Mira just shrugged, she didn't want anything to bother her, she has to trust Alex.When they got to the hospital they came down from the car an walked in to see her doctor, as they waited for their turn Mira relaxed back on the chair.Yes, she wanted her baby to enjoy the presence of a father figure in its life, especially since she did not get to enjoy much of that. Still, she was not sure if she wanted her child to be raised in a pack of werewolves. And she wa
When they got to the elegant restaurant, they sat down and ordered their preferred meal. Alex insisted on paying the bill but Loren refused, when they were done with their meal he quickly paid for it before she noticed."You're smart I'll give you that" Loren chuckled when she noticed what he did"I really enjoyed the dinner" lulu said smiling as they all walked out of the restaurant.Luke and Lucie waved them and took off to their house. Loren, Alex and Mira got into their car and went home.Mira just said a quick good night to Alex and Loren and went to her room, she was really tired and needed a good rest.Alex didn't bother disturbing her, he respected that she wasn't in the mood to talk and was tired.The next day Mira slept through the morning in her room, she didn't have the will power to stand up yet.When Alex came to check up on her she was half at sleep and half awake, he didn't wanted to disturb her but he needed to tell her that he would be leaving the house to the villa.
"Mira?" She said, she was shocked so she needed to be sure it was Mira. She eyed Mira from the tip of her shoes to her full glowing blonde hair strands "Too shocked to say hi?" Mira said after a long period of silence "don't bother you're the last person I would like to hear a hi from" Mira walked passed her as confidence as a queen " before she moved forward she turned back to pam "you were always a fake friend, that's what makes you ugly" Mira smirked and left"You're not cool" the friends pam was with said and left her to talk to someone else, pam felt disgraced and just stood in one corner regretting all she did to her friend Mira, but it was too late now Mira was beyond her level, she can't stoop too low to apologize, she'll better swallow it.The day went fast as Mira had prayed for it to move on, so that she would get home and rest, she was completely exhausted by the time Luke came to pick them up and take them back home."Please tell Alex to bring my dinner to my room, I so
Just after breakfast Mira heard the voices of Luke and Lucie greeting Loren."You guys came a bit early" Mira said"Yea, Loren called us to come by early for breakfast that she made extra cookies" Luke said"Ohh, thank goodness. You guys she have your breakfast while I go and clean myself up the get ready for you people" Mira said"Mira?" Lulu called to her friendShe walked to catch up with Mira at the stairs."What wrong?" Mira asked"Your stomach, what happened to it?" Lulu asked wondering why Mira's stomach was as flat as that of a modelMira rubbed her stomach and smiled "it's there but you can't see it" Mira chuckled"Hmm, I don't understand. I'm look right at it" lulu said"Caleb helped me do some magic on it, he has a few gifts. So he casted a spell on my body, no one will know I'm pregnant except I tell them" Mira explained"Wow, that crazy. But who's Caleb" lulu asked"Alex beta" Mira replied"Ohh, this is better of. So those bitches won't say shit about you in school. I bet
Lucie was intrigued with the beautiful of nature for ones, she had never really like nature but as she stood there it was as if something was calling her to it.She walked out side, ignoring the the instructions Hugh gave to her. She ventured inti the woods, something was pushing her but she knew nothing about it, soon she arrived at a river side that looked really beautiful."I knew you would be here" Hugh said from behind herLucie yelp in fear "you startled me" said holding her chest"You almost made me run mad by just leaving the house without saying anything, if you get missing or in the hands of the wrong werewolves what will I say to Luke" Hugh saidLucie knew he was serious so she didn't say anything annoying instead she just said sorry."It's fine, I get you like the place" Hugh smiled softly at her"Yea" she nodded slowly "but that was fast how did you get her so fast" Lucie asked "You were the one that was so slow" Hugh ChuckledWhen he had checked for her in the living ro
