Rhiannon
You have got to be kidding me. What the hell was this man doing here? I inwardly asked myself.
‘Why do you look like you have seen a ghost?’ Michy linked to me.
‘Nothing’ I replied
He stood next to Dad, who came around introducing Rodri to him, then back coming to me.
“And this is my daughter, Rhiannon,” dad smiled,
The pride in his voice as he said that, I gulp down the lump that forms in my throat.
‘Nice to meet you” I bow my head to him as he nods his head before walking away.
Everyone seems to be in awe of him as he walks around through the ranks. I wish right now I could just turn and leave, but I know I’m already in trouble with Dad.
He insists even though I’m a woman, due to begin the alpha’s daughter, I shouldn’t let anyone beat my ass.
“You can carry on!” Dad shouts as everyone finally heads back to their positions.
“Someone looks upset,” Kai whispered, wrapping his arm around my neck.
“Should I be happy that fuckin Tom beat my ass?”
I snapped, picking my jumper from the ground.
“Come on. It was—“
“Just what? I don’t have time for this” I removed his hand from my shoulder as he grabbed my hand, pulling me back to him.
“I got you a shake,” He said, passing me a bottle as I rolled my eyes. He was trying to get me to change my mind.
“How on earth did we get home?” I asked him and he shrugged his shoulders.
Michy approached us, “Mind if I steal her?” She asked Kai, who raised his eyebrows.
“Please? It’s just for a few minutes?” She clasped her hands tighter.
“Fine. I will catch up with you later” Kai kissed my temple, leaving me with Michy.
“So?” I folded my arms as she came closer, looking around us.
“His hot, isn’t he?” she whispered, giggling like a little child.
I rolled my eyes, linking with her arms, knowing we should be heading to the gym right now.
“I don’t know. What did you want to talk to me about?”
I asked her as she shook her head.
“I might have had sex without a condom?” She bit her lower lip as I stopped in my tracks.
‘Again?”
“I was freaking drunk. I need to find a solution fast,” she said as I inhaled sharply, shaking my head.
“Did you ask Rods to get you the pill?” I asked her as she looked back at him, then me.
“No. I couldn’t. He insists it’s not safe to use it three times in a year,” she said,
How stupid can they be? Having sex without protection? They shouldn’t be doing this.
“Let me guess. You want me to get it for you?” I raised a brow, and she beamed.
“Fine, I will head to the clinic later,” I said, and she held on tight to me.
>>>
After training, I made my way back home, took a quick shower again, and then had my online classes.
After lunch, I headed to the clinic to pick up the pill for Michy, since she couldn’t do it herself.
“Hey, doc!” I said, getting into the room as Trevor rolled his eyes.
“What can I do for you today?’ He asked me as I beamed walking towards him. I looked around, hoping no one could see us.
“Nothing really, just checking on how it is going”
He raises a brow, putting his pen in the pocket of his coat.
“Does that also include picking up things for your friend?”
I purse my lips together because I’m sure he knows that Michy is the one I’m picking the safe pill for.
“I just wanted to see if you could...”
“I can. But don’t you think if she’s using so many safe pills in such a short time, shouldn’t she just get on a pill? Or come through for an—“
“No! She can’t!” I cut him short as he raised his eyebrows, wondering why I had to cut him short.
“No one can find out she is...you know...” I smiled at him and he nodded his head.
“Fine.” He says, leading the way to his office.
Following him behind, he enters his office. I shut the door behind us as he takes a box of safe pills and hands it to me.
‘Thanks! You are the best,” I beamed.
He shakes his head in disbelief, watching me as I hide the box in the pocket of my jeans before dashing out of his office.
I took out my phone. I sent out a text to Michy that I had the things she needed.
‘Next time, use a condom,’ I added.
‘Fuck you’, she replied,
I chuckled, trying to get my phone back in my pocket as I lifted my eyes, only to find the one person I was trying to avoid standing in front of me.
He strides over to me as I look around. I am stuck between the wall and him. Why did I have to use this fuckin narrow pathway?
My heart was racing, butterfly flutters when I saw him. I hate this fucking feeling. Why does he have to make me feel like this?
He eyes me from head to toe as I approach him. I try to walk past him, but he blocks my path.
“What do you want?” I snap.
He smirks.
“DO you find this amusing? Are you stalking me?” I asked him,
His smirk turns into a frown as he grabs me by my neck, pinning me against the wall.
My core throbs at his touch as I look up in his eyes. Placing my hands on his chest, I try to push him off me, but he grabs me, pulling me closer to him. Kicking him in his groin, I move away from him.
“Stay the fuck away from me,” I barked.
He let out a low growl as he moved away from me. He tries to walk towards me, but stops when he sees Rodri looking at us.
Rhiannon“What was that about?” Rodri asked as I walked past him,“Nothing. It was nothing,” I lied.He glances at me and then back at the person am trying so hard to run away from. He inhales sharply as I wait for him to let me go.“Rhia...” he whispers.“It’s nothing Rods,” I maintainHe gives me an affirmative nod as I walk away. I can’t believe he saw me with the man that I don’t even know.What if it was Kai? I ask myself inwardly as I make my way back to the house. I find Michy waiting for me with a bottle of juice in her hand.“What’s up?” She asks as I shake my head.I don’t want to start talking about what just happened, but then again, she’s my best friend.Hey,” I say when we get to the bedroom.“The man who followed me into the bathroom last night,” I started as she gulped down some juice.“Yes.”“Well, it’s that man”“Which man?” She asks her attention to the bottle of juice she’s drinking. She doesn’t seem to be paying attention.She gasps when the realization hits her.
Tristan “IS it done?” The voice came from the other side of the phone.“Well, I’m here. Might have a bit of a problem though” I admitted and the line went quiet.“Can you handle the problem?”“Yes. It might take some time but yes, I can handle it” I replied cutting the call as I sighed heavily looking at the picture of Rhiannon.I thought it would be an easy thing coming here but fuck I was dealing with a twenty-year-old girl.A knock comes on the door as I grab the picture putting it in the drawer with the knives as I make my way to the door.I open the door to my guest room and I find the alpha’s son there.“My father would like to speak to you,” He says, his gaze moving from head to toe sizing me up.“IS that all?” I askHe nods.I push the door to close it but he blocks it with his foot. I inhale sharply opening the door.“One more thing, when you see my sister look the other way. I don’t want to be the reason why you only have one eye” He cautionsBefore I could respond, he tu
**Rhiannon**A personal trainer? I stormed into my room, slamming the door behind me and screaming in frustration as I fell on the bed, covering my head with a pillow.“Seems like dinner didn’t go as planned” Kai’s voice came as I sat up on the bed looking towards the window his voice was coming from.I sniffled back as he approached the bed, and I shook my head.“Hey. What’s wrong?” He whispered as I swallowed hard.“Nothing,” I whispered as I took hold of his shirt, pulling him closer to me as I planted a kiss on his lips, deepening the kiss as I wrapped my arms around his neck.‘Rhia… The door....’ He linked to me, but I didn’t care anymore about what happened. I didn’t care if Dad found us right now or mum.“Rhiannon” He pulled away from me as I raised a brow.He seemed tense“What’s wrong?” I asked.“I just came because I wanted us to chat. I just…” he lowered his eyes, avoiding looking into my eyes.“What’s wrong?”“I don’t think right now we should be alone. I keep having thoug
RhiannonGetting to the training ground, I found they paired everyone up with someone to train with. I glanced at Kai, who was sparing with Anita, one recruit.My eyes mate with Enzo was standing with his arms folded while he barked instructions.“Rhiannon. You are next,” He shouted after Michele had finished sparring with another omega.“What?” Rodri gasped.“They are friends. You can’t surely let her spar with Michele,” He whispered as everyone looked at me then Michele.Enzo smirks as I let out an exasperated sigh.“Listen up everyone!” He shouted, ignoring what Rodri was trying to say to him.“As soon as you walk into this training ground. I don’t care if you were fuckin each other last night or you came from the same womb. Prepare to train with whomever I pair you with. You lose, you are doing all the cleaning up!” He ordered as I sighed heavily.“Surely you can take him on, right?” He turned to me as I swallowed hard, my eyes meeting with Michele’s“Sure thing,” I said, pulling
**Rodri**Enzo? What the fuck is he thinking coming here and treating everyone like they were nothing?“Do you want me to go after her?”Michele came closer as we watched the other recruits spar.‘No. Let’s see if Kai will be able to talk to her” I shook my head as I followed my hands, watching him bark instructions standing like he was the alpha of this pack.He turned his head towards the door when he realized Kai wasn’t there and started to walk towards the gym“I will be back”: He said to no one in particular, but I knew this wouldn’t be the end of it.I tried to focus on their conversation, but all I could hear was nothing but grunts and groans surrounding me.After a few minutes, all I see is Kai coming out with his head down.‘What the hell happened there?’ I link to him.‘She says she can handle him’ he replies, walking towards me as I sigh heavily, clenching my jaws.Why would father hire someone who will just treat her like she’s nothing in front of everyone?I never worry a
**Rhiannon**“I just don’t understand why his treating you like shit,” Michy complained, rolling on the bed to look at me where I was sitting, moving around my schedule.“I don’t know as well. I understand him wanting to do his job, but dude, the guy hates me,” I added.She pauses, biting her fingernails as her lips turn up in a mischievous smile and I know what that means.“Maybe he likes you,” she smirks.I scoff, closing my laptop.“Like me? Do you think right now I should be thinking about that? I feel like his someone holding a grudge towards me or something,” I complained to her, but she seemed to have zoned out.“Michy” I snap my fingers in front of her and she shakes her head.“Know what? Would love to continue chatting but someone would like to chat with me,” she smiled, getting up from the bed.She quickly puts on her shoes before rushing out of the room.Great! There goes the one person who said she would go with me for training.I fuckin hate it. I hate when Rodri takes he
**Rhiannon**After getting home last night, I didn’t bother having dinner but just took a shower and ended up in bed, putting my phone on plane mode.I just wanted to be alone.Most mates accept their mates regardless of what they might be. I prayed to the moon goddess that no matter who he was or wherever he was, he would accept me.I woke up first thing in the morning, as always the second person to wake up in the house after Dad, who usually goes for his morning runs.I don’t feel like working out this morning, so I will probably help out in the kitchen and then later go with Michy to look at dresses for the Mating Ball we are hosting.I decided to make some Crepe Quiche Cups, pancakes, toast, and bacon while everyone was still asleep.Cooking helps me relax a bit, even though I’m not good at it, at least I try to make decent meals.Usually on Fridays, we have so many people coming for breakfast to the pack house. Mostly, it’s people of higher rank joining us.“Hmmm, what’s that sm
**Rhiannon**I don’t fucking believe what Dad is suggesting. I can’t believe he would be a man he just met to be in charge of our team.“You okay?” Michy Asked joining me in the room as I changed into something else.“What do you think?”“Oh babes” She tried to come near me“I’m good. Let’s just leave earlier. I would like to get there early. I haven’t gotten a dress for the Ball,” I concluded, grabbing a few tank tops, a blazer, and pairs of jeans packing in my douche bag.‘We are waiting for you in the Alpha’s Office,’ Kai linked to me while I packed my things.‘Be there soon’ I cut the link as I threw on a leather jacket and grabbed my phone“They need us for a briefing,” I statedI made my way in the hallway with Michele while she filled me in on the latest gossip around the pack.“Did you know Katy is pregnant again?”“Why am I not shocked?” I added as she chuckled.“At this rate, I think she will become a grandmother before I even have my first child,” she added as I rolled my e
Rhiannon’s Point Of ViewGetting back home, all I could see were empty streets, as if no one lived in them.All the beautiful places that I used to come to burn down.My vision. This is what it meant. I blinked back as I tried to link to Rodrigo. He was not back at Tristan’s pack, so that means he should be here.I need to find him, but before that; I need to find out something.As soon as we arrive at the pack house, I notice the statue in the fountain in front of the house has been knocked over.A few unfamiliar faces stand guards on the gates and patrolling the pack house. I get out of the car looking around, wondering where Rodrigo would be.I walk behind Tristan as he leads the way into the house. I would have run away, but then I cannot shit without hurting the baby.We get into the pack house and the smell of burnt steak hits my nostrils. I am quick to cover my nose, as it makes me nauseous.“Are you okay?” Joel asks me and I nod my head.“Alpha!” The men stand in line as soo
Tristan’s Point of View“Are you sure this is the only way? What about Sawyer?” He asked me, as I swallowed hard, unsure if I could trust him.“Most Alphas are against the takeover of her Crimson Claw pack. This is the only way I can have a claim over that pack and I don’t plan on letting them claim it because somehow they are connected to it,” I added, fixing the sleeves of my shirt.Two weeks ago, I asked Rhiannon to marry me to save her people, and she was not hesitant. After this marriage, I would send Rhiannon with some people back there to help lead that pack while keeping some people here with me.Knowing that she was pregnant with me messed up Sawyer, but she knows everything that I am doping is because I want her to have a future where she does not have to fight for her place.“Hey,” she walked in as I packed my things, Joel getting up to his feet about to walk away.“Hi” “So what now? Have you decided who will be coming with you?” She asks me as I nod my head.“We have a fe
Rhiannon’s point of viewMarriage? Did I hear him correctly?I burst out laughing while holding my tummy as I looked at him waiting for my response.“I would rather bite my tongue and die than get married to you” I said through gritted teeth, my voice breaking knowing what I might condemn Michy to.I know he probably doesn’t believe what I’m saying but if he tried to force me I would definitely do it.“Think about your friends and their families. I will give you some time to think it over” he said walking out of the room.I swallow hard watching him walk away from me. To think I had once started imagining a family with him.Tears fill my eyes as I think about what he just said.All I can think about is what Michy might go through.The next couple of days I have my blood transfusion and about to head back to the cells.The doctor walks in before Joel can take me back and he gives me some pills “This is good for the growing baby and you” he said as I looked at the packaging of the pill
Rhiannon’s Point of ViewI thought I had seen it all in life. When Sawyer took me to that place, I feared for my baby.The baby I did not even want, but I feared what those men would do to me.What those filthy hands would try to do to me? I closed my eyes as I curled up on the bed in the corner while Michy watched me in the other corner.“What happened out there Rhia?” She finally asked, after staring at me for hours.Tears begin to roll down my face; my lips are pressed together as I close my eyes, feeling the hot tears go down my cheeks.‘Rhia’ she linkedI bury my head in my knees, letting the tears stream down my cheeks. I needed to find a way to get out of here. How do we get everyone left of the pack out of here?Others have already bent the knee to him, so it will not be easy to get their support, but for the sake of my baby, I was going to fight and get out of this hellhole.‘What are you not telling me?’ Michy asked, coming closer to me as I pressed my lips together, not su
Sawyer’s point of view“No. I don’t love her,” he said to me., looking away from me as that bitch swallowed hard. I could hear his heart racing when he said that.She must have heard his heart as well.“She’s only pregnant. Once she gives—““Pregnant? Did you say pregnant?” I asked him,He nods.I burst out laughing, tears streaming down my face as I looked into his eyes. He wasn’t serious.“She’s pregnant?’ I ask again just so that I can get clarity about what I just heard.I must be dreaming.I must be in dreamland because how the hell is this bitch pregnant with Tristan? How the hell did he not think of using protection when he fucked with her?“She can’t have this baby,” I said“Let’s talk about this inside.”He turned on his heel, grabbed her by her elbow and walked away as I clenched my jaws, watching them.I blink back my tears, trying not to make a fool of myself after what he just said. I cannot believe he would do something like this to me.I tried to get pregnant, and he w
Tristan’s point of view“Enzo! Help!” Rhiannon’s voice came as my eyes furrowed wondering why she was shouting for me.“What’s going on?” I link to Joel while I type up something on my phone“I don’t understand. What do you mean?” He replies as I swallowed hard“Why is Rhiannon shouting? I asked you to take her to the shelter?” I asked him and he keeps quiet.“I will check it out” he replies“Don’t” I will have to check it out myself as I make my way out of my office heading to the shelter.I notice a few cars are gone but that should be Sawyer going out for her usual routine.I head into the shelters, taking in the different scents that hit my nostrils while the people locked up threw insults at me.I reach at the end of the cells where Rhiannon is supposed to be and find she is not there.“Where is she?” I ask no one in particular as Michele sniffled back getting up to her feet“Why are you asking me? Your mistress came to get her” she fumes as I raised my eyebrows.Fucking Sawye
Rhiannon’s point of viewMate. Dead. Father, Dead. Brother. Dead. Mother dead.All the people I care about are dead. What was the reason to go on living? I had no sense anymore.I wanted to end it all, end my suffering before that cruel man made me go through so much.I needed to end it. I cannot believe I let him in. I opened my heart to him, willing to love him and he had to betray me?Slowly, my eyes opened the light in my eyes as I struggled to stay awake. I groaned softly as I picked the scent of Enzo or alpha Tristan.It must be a dream. Why would I smell it? Why was I? Wasn’t it heaven? I try to open my eyes and I see him standing there.Cargo pants, a black t-shirt with a black blazer, his hand tucked under his arm. The other hand gently strokes his chin.I try to lift my hand, but my hands are tied to the bed. ‘Don’t bother. It’s safer like that,” he growls, walking towards me as I sniffle bac
Tristan’s Point of ViewStanding by watching everything that Drake loved burn down to the ground brought me so much satisfaction, but nothing made me so happy than being back home.Being where I could finally be addressed by my name and I did not have to spend nights alone in a black cold room.“What do you plan on doing with her?” Sawyer asked me as soon as I got back into my bedroom,I sat on the bed, pulling off the boots that I had on.“I haven’t thought of what I will do” I retorted, my eyes roaming around the bedroom, which I left over two years ago.“T.J., we can’t have her here. I do not want—““She’s staying here. I have plans for her,” I concluded, getting up from the bed, and heading into the bathroom to shower.“But…” she was about to say as I closed the door behind me. I turned on the shower, letting the hot water run down on my skin. The burning sensation was what I needed. I needed to feel something else other than what I was feeling.I wanted so much to hurt her, but I
Rhiannon’s point of view“What?” I asked, getting up to my feet as my father lowered his head.“Is this true?” Rodrigo asked Dad, who did not dare look at him, avoiding at all costs even glancing at him.“You are lying!” I said to Enzo, who smirked as he came closer to me. I moved back as I thought about what he tried to do to me just a few minutes ago.I cannot believe I was sleeping with such a man. I thought that maybe he was human. But he was a monster and didn’t even care about anything,“Why don’t you ask him?” he said to me as I turned to my father, hoping he would tell me Enzo was lying to me, that Enzo was just trying to bring hatred between us.“He killed your mate because he was a lowly omega. Ask him,” Enzo insisted as I closed my eyes, shaking my head.“Dad?” I turned to him as he swallowed hard, looking into my eyes.“He didn’t deserve you. You think that I would allow my daughter to be married to a slave?” Dad asked me as tears fell from my eyes, unable to control every
