HERALD.“You shouldn't be asking that question, She wouldn't want you to know.” She let out softly. “But I want to know why she's not healing.” I pressed further. Claire sighed and gave in to me. “It's all because of your pack and the stupid rules that bind it. Odeya stayed in poor condition for months before I got to know her. Her body grew weaker day after day and when it was time for delivery, she did it herself.” She paused and breathed in.I felt something snap in me. And for some reason, it was hard to break down the words that Claire said. “What do you mean?” I asked, my brows knitted together in confusion “She did it herself. She delivered the babies herself. Her body was weak to the point that it just stopped healing itself after that. Perhaps if she had rested after doing that, her body would gain strength and things would be better but no, she went through the hassle of staying in the commoner's school.” Claire explained, her voice a little low and broken. Commoners sc
ODEYA.He pressed against me and his dick nudged at my belly, and then another moan fell from my mouth. I took his lips in mine hungrily, biting on his lower lips. Herald moved me from the wall and pushed me toward the bed and I groaned. Herald pulled his clothes, watching me as I did the same swiftly. His eyes darkened when I pulled my shirt and the expression on his face reminded me that I had fallen boobs from breastfeeding. His eyes moved from my face and trailed down but stopped on my boobs. And then, his eyes darkened more, I didn't know what he was thinking. I wanted to know badly. “Stretch marks, you have them.” He looked into my eyes and I gently nodded. Yeah, after birth, there were stretch marks on my cleavage and the side of my arm. Herald dropped on me, and then he moved his hand to my cleavage. I didn't look at him, I was too shy to do that so I looked at the roof. His fingers slid from my cleavage to my arm and I rasped as each touch sent tingles all over my body.
ODEYA. Herald didn't come back, what he said to me was unreasonable and I didn't care. He came to me, I was going to let it go but he came to me and had sex with me. He made me remember what pleasure was like, his touch against my skin was different. I am not a psychopath, I had tried dating before but I get instantly irritated but not with Herald. Sighing, I dropped my drink with the waiter. The meeting Herald said we had was actually at an evening party. The man wanted us to chill before going to the meeting room which was quite okay with me. “You have kids, you shouldn't be drinking.” And a voice sounded behind me. I turned around and saw a tall gentleman looking back at me with a smile. “How do you know I have kids?” I raised my brows. I did not know the man from Adam hence I'm quite shocked he knows I have kids. “Oh relax, we met at the club in France one time and you seemed to be in a really bad mood. You called me off by saying you have kids.” He raised his lips in
ODEYA. Perhaps I had said too much and I was being mean but this was the same man that sent me out of his bed after having sex with me. I walked out on him to get another drink, I would need so much more if I would be going back to the pack with him. Taking another drink from the tray, Herald stopped me and signalled to the waiter to get going. I turned and glared at him. “Don’t follow me!” I snapped. I know I want him to follow me. “I can't because there are some kids waiting for me to bring you home safe and there are men gawking at you!” He groaned and ran his hands through his hair. And then I laughed, I laughed when it's nothing is funny. I know it's the effect of having more than five tequila shot. “Oh, I see that's what all this is about. Just go away, I won't do anything stupid.” I told him and started to walk toward a way I didn't know. Yeah, now I am very drunk. “You know that's the way to the bathroom, right?” His voice came behind me but I didn't answer. I kept wal
Katya watched me pull off my shirt, she sat on my bed. She didn't leave even when I told her to. She had reminded me that she was my Queen and she had the right to see me undress. I didn't want to argue with her, guilt was still eating me up for what happened between me and Odeya in Finland. I shouldn't have. It was nothing but a mistake that I would never make again. I felt her eyes on my entire body, from my stud and well-built back to my huge and ripped biceps. She gently bit her lower lips at each movement I made. The way she curled her toes told me she was in the mood which I am not ready for at the moment. She was still staring at me when I felt her eyes snap to something on my back. I didn't know what it was.“What are you looking at?” I asked. “What is that?” She asked, pointing to my back. I couldn't see it. I couldn't see what she was pointing at all. “Are you cheating on me?” Her voice sounded in my ear and for a second my heart stopped. I gently turned to her. “Why d
ODEYA. “What are the rules and regulations of the game?” He asked, coming toward me and the kids. We have had time to think about his request of joining. However, I would do anything to stop him from coming over since he said he didn't want to have anything to do with me. But, my kids wouldn't want that, especially Scarlett. According to her, she promised him that she would be his friend. And friends always play with friends. He came out to the terrace in a black shirt and black tank top. His biceps were ripped and strong like those in high school movies that made the women swoon in admiration. He was hot, big, and handsome. “You have to pick the ball and take it to the post. If someone from a team does this successfully, the team wins.” Austin took the chance to explain. My boy had a serious expression on his face, he was ready to win at all costs. Austin can be quite competitive. “I am joining your team, Alpha.” Austin started to walk toward Herald and I frowned. “You can't ab
ODEYA.“What do you mean by I am leaving?” I asked again, utterly confused. He paused and turned to me. “We want you gone.” He answered. “We?” I scoffed, looking away for one second before looking back at him. “We or Katya told you to do this?” I asked incredulously. How can a man be so cruel? After he laid with me in Finland, he was back here telling me I need to leave my children for his wife. “You are going to have to kill me for me to do that.” I turned around to walk away but he held my hand tightly causing me to whimper from the pain. Looking at his eyes, they were dark and filled with anger. Why was he angry? Because I am talking back? Because I would not let Katya have my happiness? She already took him from me but it seems like she was not satisfied. “You have a few days to say goodbye to the kids and leave.” With this, he turned away. Pain reverberated through me and I want to cry. It took everything in me not to break down at that point. Also, I didn't want my kids to
HERALD One of the guards ran into my working space which was rare except during an emergency. It turned out that my daughter, Scarlett had run into the bushes the minutes the guards took their eyes off her. “What?” I started walking swiftly through the hallway, and then with my super speed which only an Alpha possessed, I ran out. “Scarlett?!” I called my voice loud roaring and even making the trees shake. I ran through the forest, calling her name out loud. “Scarlett?!” My heart trembled as I called her name. The thought of losing my child sat deep in my belly. I searched the entire forest but she wasn't there. Her scent didn't linger in the forest, it was there but I could hold unto it. She was in the forest but someone had taken her. I howled at the thought, every werewolf came running to me at the sound of my howl. “Where the hell is my daughter?!” I cried out and they all submitted, whimpering at the sound of my voice. “Where the hell is she?!” My voice roared with both
ODEYA. I rushed my kids to the pack hospital. I couldn't bring myself to imagine what had happened to them. Herald rushed in at the same time that I was panicking. “What happened to them?” He asked. “I don't know.” Tears were rolling out of my eyes now. My heart was pounding wildly in my chest cavity. How come the three of them got stomach aches at the same time? I couldn't place my fingers on what had happened to them. “I’m going to see the doctor.” With this, he went away. I couldn't stand in the hospital any longer. I was anticipating the result and this could make my badge into the room. I had done that three times and the nurses had to ban me from going in. I needed to clear my head. And remind myself that nothing could ever happen to my three bundle of joy. Getting out of the hospital, I saw Katya staring at me. Her lips curled with pleasure, she looked happy and satisfied. “No... No... No...” I marched toward her. “You didn't do that to my children did you?” I asked, t
ODEYA. I ran out of my room after I was lost in thought for about three minutes. Then I used a minute to put on a gown. By the time I got to the living room, Herald was gone. Something wrecked in me. Something hard but fragile. I could place my hands on what I felt at the moment. “Are you okay?” Clara asked me and I nodded.“You don't look fine,” Dad looked at me. “I am going to bed.” With this, I turned around and went back to my room. Tears pooled around my eyes and I tried tossing it off but I couldn't. I ended up pouring it over my pillow and then slept off right there. The next day, I decided that I was going back to the pack house with the kids. My parents and Clara didn't want me to go but I knew I needed to see Herald. The way I felt with him last night was different. The more I avoided him, the more I missed him. Every time he touched me, he was making me love it more. The kids were silent since they were occupied with their games. I looked out the window while the car
HERALD. She was wet, I could smell her. It was driving me nuts hence I moved away because I didn't want to do something I would have to account for again. However, I couldn't help it. I dashed back into the room the same way I dashed out. This time she was naked as though she had been preparing for me. Ahhrrg. I couldn't control it. I pinned her to the wall and took another sniff at her skin. Her scent was heavenly. A cologne I would never get tired of. She shivered as I trailed my lips along her skin. Gently I bent my head and stared into her eyes. Her cute eyes rounded as I stared. They had desires and longing. I moved my eyes toward her lips. Those luscious pumps. I took them into my mouth, licking and biting on them. Her body gently shivered beneath me. She wrapped her hands around me, her fingers nipping at my skin. Fuck, I groaned. It was the kind of pleasure I had never experienced before. I only felt this way with her. As much as I wanted to hate her, she was the only
“Claiming you?” He raised his full yet clean brows, acting like he didn't know what I was talking about. My cheeks flushed. Perhaps he didn't think of it the way that I did. Suddenly, anger scampered through my body. I yanked my hand away from his grip and turned to my room. Before shutting the door, I pointed to the last door in the hallway. “That is the visitor’s room.” After this, I shut my door. I didn't wait for any response from him. I had never felt so embarrassed in my life. I went to the bathroom. The water ran down from the faucet to my skin. I didn't know how tightened my skin was until the water slid through. I ran my fingers on my scalp, gently massaging the tensed surface. As I closed my eyes, all I could think about was the words he said to the people. He claimed me as his own. I actually thought that he meant it. I grabbed the towel from the rack before stepping out of the bathroom and walking to the bedroom. To my surprise, Herald was in my room looking at some of
The pack men didn't realize that Herald was standing in front of me, they blindly threw their thrash at him. He stood like a strong tower as the thrash fell off him including flour. Shit!“It is the Alpha!” One of them shouted, realizing the shit they were doing. I should mock them but I couldn't bring myself to. Herald would murder them for what they just did. The next second, they all dropped to the floor. Their heart was pounding so hard, that music producers could generate tons of sounds from them. Their fear distributed all over the air.Herald gently opened his eyes, his eyelashes flopped upward like butterfly wings. His natural curls made me Jealous. My children took the curly and long lashes from him, no doubt. I have to spend a couple of dollars for lash extensions cause I don't have enough. Herald oozes out anger like a steaming machine. Then he stepped forward, his eyes hovering over the kneeling masses. “W - We didn't know you were here Alpha. We came to chase these ab
ODEYA. Herald knelt beside me, it was weird seeing him like this but it didn't let me lose focus on the game. No one has ever beaten me in flipping bottles and I am not about to make today an exemption. Herald was the first to flip his and to my surprise, he did it perfectly. Savannah and Scarlett cheered him on while I rolled my eyes. “Okay Mom, you got this!” Aaron massaged my shoulder. I did mine and it landed perfectly as well. “Looks like we have a tough game today!” Dad moved forward watching with interest. I am certain he was glad someone was finally competing with me, he had always hated me winning against him and Mom. Herald flipped perfectly again, angering me. We have been at it for more than twenty minutes get he was acing each one. By now he should give up. Everyone was already around the table, looking for who would lose. “Damn it!” I slammed my hand against the table when he made a perfect flip with his eyes closed. “Mom, you have to do it with one leg up,” S
HERALD. “She left?!” I yelled, looking at Nathan who looked away. My blood was boiling. What right did she have to leave the pack house without informing me? Has she gone to find the stupid true love Becca talked about? “She went to see her parents, I think she deserves it,” Nathan responded and I paused. I felt a little calm that she had just gone to see her family. That was good. Sitting back, Nathan and I continued pack work. “Her father was the previous Beta whom you relieved of his work ever since you got together with Katya. Beta Aaron had done great things in the pack yet he was fired without any benefits.” Nathan uttered, showing me some of his past works. “I do not intend to speak ill words toward her but she has made you do things that you shouldn't have done. Meerah was executed under your watch, you saved her once and you caused her death later.” He looked away, there was a twist of emotions in his eyes. A spark of emotion that I hadn't seen before. I sighed. “I am go
“You shouldn't,” I whisper. The voice came out of me without thinking and when I looked back into his eyes, it had darkened. And then the next second, he looked away from me. My heart dropped at the rejection. Scarlett and her siblings rushed in, she had a cage with a bird with multiple colors. “Mom, this is called a scarlet Macaw, it's my favorite kind of bird because of their multiple colors and they have the same name as mine,” Scarlett explained, the spark in her eyes was back and I was so grateful. I thought that I would never see her happy again. My daughter shouldn't have to go through what she went through. I blame myself for leaving her alone. “Thank you, Daddy!” She looked toward Herald who smiled back at her and then he came closer and squatted in front of her. “Tell me anything you need, anything at all.” Herald played with her hair. It warmed my heart that he loved my children. That he loved Scarlett as much as I did. I hoped Scarlett getting love from the two of us wi
ODEYA. Scarlett looked at me and Herald with a confused expression and gently I got off the wall and Herald’s arms.“Baby, how do you feel?” I asked, going closer to her. “Good. What are you and daddy doing?” she asked, her gentle and innocent voice made me smile. “Nothing,” Herald answered, coming behind me. And then I straightened myself and looked at him, “You should go,” I pronounced coldly and he looked at me with a weird expression. It was as if I wasn't the one that he just kissed against the wall. “No, I want to stay. You have been with her for days now, I am taking over.” He glared at me and then sat before Scarlett. “Did you know my blood healed you faster? You should be thankful to Daddy now,” he teased and then held her tiny hands. Scarlett smiled and soon she began to talk to Herald. He asked her about the things that made her happy and she happily said them all. A smile popped on my face and I walked out of the room. What I did not expect was to meet Katya in fron
