"What do you mean by that? You promised me you would go home""I know but that would be after the week""Okay, that's fine but at least put a call through to her so she can know you're doing fine""Babe, you are stressing yourself too much" He said as he mounted the bed and crawled to where she was sitting."My mom is strong, she would be fine""Okay, no problem then" She faked a smile.*Helen stood by the window in her room, lost in thought as so many questions and assumption filled her mind but until the horn of Ignacio car filled the air as he drove into the compound, shaking her out of her thoughts. Her gaze fell on Ignacio as he stepped out of the car and tailed him until he was inside the house.She slowly bit on her nails as she thought of what to do before Ignacio finds out about the truth about himself and Iris. Her soul became restless and she soon began to pace round the room with heavy heart until a thought stroke her mind - she snapped her fingers and grinned."This woul
Amber rephrased her steps back to Angel and looked at her, waiting for her to say what she wants."What is it you know that might help me?""Helen has been trying to hide a truth from Ignacio and Iris, I think it's the truth about their identity""Very well then. Thanks, I would take my leave now"Amber retreated from the house and when she was a few miles away from the house, she dialed Maya's number and she picked immediately."Hey, mom!""Hey, sweetheart. How is it going on over there?""I don't know but I think you should stay back at home for now, I'll let you know if I need any help""Okay, dear." Maya responded and hung up. Amber dialed Liza's number."Hello. How is it? Is Ignacio there with you?" "No. The house is empty.""Okay then. I'll talk to you later"Amber's heart pounded faster as she could not think of where Ignacio could be so she decided to call Iris."Hey, Iris. How are you doing?""I'm very much okay. What is the matter? You don't sound too good.""Ignacio is mi
"I'll try to get to him, I'll also talk to Fred and see how we can help" Iris said and ended the call."What's the matter, babe?" Fred asked as he stretched his limbs."Ignacio was kidnapped by mom" she said in a low tone."Your mom? Why would she do that?""I don't know" She voiced out almost a cry."Hey, babe. Calm down" He said as he moved closer to her and hugged her."We will find him at all cost" he kissed her forehead."Amber told me to leave the city, that's the only way to buy Ignacio more time because mom intend to kill us both as soon as she gets me""Now, that's absurd. Why would she ever want to kill you?" He asked in rage."I don't know. We have to get out of here, babe" she said in panic and tried to pack her things but Fred held her back."No, baby. We're not leaving. Since she wants to have you, we would make her have you" he said and Iris's eyes widened."What? So she could kill me? What about our baby?" She asked, holding her small stomach."Shush! No, love." He hel
Fred barged into the living room, a sharp smile escaped from the corner of Angel's lips as soon as she saw him. "Son? You're back home?" She asked with the brightest smile as she hugged him."I'm sorry I had to leave like that, mom""It's fine. Come........ Come have a seat, I'll get you something chilled" She dragged him by the wrist to the couch but Fred stopped her half way and she looked back with her eyes widened."What's wrong, Fred?""I should be asking you that, mom. I only left for a few days and you've become like this? This isn't the Angel I know as my mother""I'm sorry, I almost lost it when you left but don't worry, I'll go take a bath now and change into something nice.""That's better but that isn't the major problem now, where is Perrin?""What's the problem? Did something happen?""Yes, Ignacio was kidnapped and now, I have to use Iris as a bait to know where he is""What? How can you do that? What about her baby?" She snapped at him, more like how the real Angel wo
Amber went back home after she got a call from Liza that the house was empty. She dragged her feet into the living room, threw herself on the rugged chair and threw her head backwards as she let out a deep huff."What are you going to do now, Amber?" Liza broke the silence."I'm so confused, I don't know want to do or where to find him and time is running out. Do you know the worst part of all of these?" She sprang to a sitting position with her teary little eyes."When we went to the council this morning, the leader said I don't have any privilege to pick another person as my mate after him so what would happen to me if he dies? I would cease being the Alpha! What would happen to the pack if I cease being the Alpha? We might never get to access our wolf side again?. Why? All because I'm an incompetent Alpha" she cussed and broke down in tears.Maya moved closer to her and pulled her in for a hug, "No, baby. You're not incompetent and none of what you said would happen. We will find h
"Fred!" Iris called out in a faint voice as she felt a gush of blood rush down her legs.Fred turned to her and untied her, he tailed her look to her legs, his heart was saddened as he saw the blood but silently prayed that their baby is fine.Perrin captured Helen and the troops took her away while Jenna was still grasping for breath."You shouldn't do that, Amber. You're the Alpha, you should lead by example. I know she has hurt us all a lot but you don't have to stain your hands with her filthy blood" Ignacio said and Amber let go of her, the troops also took her away."Any nearest hospital here?" Fred asked, worried"There's one by the corner" Liza responded.Fred carried Iris who screamed in pain as he did so and was about to exit the room when Liza stopped them."I'll go with you" She said, waved at Amber and followed them.Amber untied Ignacio and hugged him so tight, they broke the hug and leaned in for a hot, slutty kiss. "Thanks for coming for me""You're always welcome"Th
Two weeks laterAmber and Ignacio had gotten married the previous week and was due for the coronation. They walked up, hands in hands to the leader at the platform and stood before the pack."By the power vested in me by the leader of this great pack, I pronounce Amber Emerson as the Alpha and Ignacio Adamson as the Luna of Golden Moon pack" the leader cried out in his thin and shaky voice.They both bowed a little as the leader placed the crowns on their heads and the audience applauded them. "Congratulations, brother!" Iris called out to Ignacio at the after party."Thanks, sis." He said and hugged her."Where's Fred by the way?" "He told me he's going to be late for the ceremony but he should be here anytime soon.""Okay, I have to go now" He patted her shoulder softly and walked away.Iris gyrated and watched him in admiration as he walked through the crowd greeting them - they both deserved to be happy after all they went through in the hands of Helen. A warm tap on her shoulde
Three years laterAmber was in her chamber alone but restless as she paced around the room, chewing on her finger. Her thought were however interrupted when Ignacio walked into the chamber."Hey, pretty Alpha" He teased as he walked further into the chamber and Amber blushed softly despite her worries."What's wrong? Why do you look so disturbed?" He asked as he sat on the edge of the bed."Are you even calculating the years at all? It's been three years since we got married now""Yes, I know. Three years with no serious marriage issue, that shows that we passed the first part.""The first and easiest part, dearie. What do you think is going to happen in our fifth year?" She sat beside him."Exactly what we think is going to happen. We would be announced as mate.""And if we're not? I'll die, who will take care of our little Prince Damon?""Nothing is going to happen to you as long as I'm here. We are in this together so please, relax." He said and pulled her to a tight hug."I would
The day of the anniversaryAmber had woken up a bit sluggishly that morning, she was not supposed to spend the night with Ignacio since they planned to retake their wedding vows - it was like they were just getting married for the first time. She got out of bed, her hair was a mess and she sat in front of the mirror, staring at her reflection as if it was new. "Am I still going to exist tomorrow?" She thought to herself.It was 8 in the morning and the make-up artists were at the door but she wouldn't allow them in. She cried for hours before words later got to Maya and she went to her room and knocked on the door."Hey, baby girl. It's me, your mom. Please, open up" Maya pleaded as her heart ached.The door lock made a clinging sound, she later opened the door. Maya grabbed the knob, opened the door, and went in."Hey, child." She called out and took a seat beside her on the bed."I know how you feel but it's going to be fine." She assured in a shaky voice, she wished she had kept
Two years later (a week to Amber's wedding anniversary.)Amber laid on the bed that morning, sound of metal clinging together, aroma of different meal and the chattering of people filled the air but Amber could hardly hear them. Ignacio turned to her and poked her nose."Hey, pretty. What's wrong? It's too early to have that gloomy look on""I'm not in the mood for jokes this morning, please" She said, still not moving a muscle."Why? What's wrong?""You're asking me what's wrong? Really?" She shot a sharp glare at him."Wow! Calm down, babe. I know what's going on in your mind but you don't have to think of all these. Okay, let's look at it from this angle. What if you were diagnosed with a terminal disease and you only have five years to live of which you have only one week left, would you just do nothing and stay in bed all day?""No!" She hesitated"That's the point. I'm sure you're going to live your life to the fullest, explore things and places you want to. So stop this and let
Jennifer was playing with Prince Damon, giggling aloud when a familiar figure walked into the living room. She was so engulfed in the playing with Prince Damon that she didn't notice the man and everyone kept mute and waited for her to look up. Prince Damon threw his ball at the feet of the man, she got up to go get it. Picking it up and standing straight before him, she couldn't believe her eyes - it was Cooper."Cooper? Is that you?" She asked, shocked and surprised. "Yes. Who are you? Why do you have Jennifer's scent but look like Helen?""You should have your seat first, dad" Ignacio said and he he turned at his direction.He wanted to say something but couldn't find the right words so he sat and waited for someone to explain what was going on until his eyes fell on Amber."Yes, you. You have been to the hospital and promised to tell me what's going on. Why do I look this old? The man that followed me down here said this is 2023 and the nurse said that I had been in the hospital
Alicia got scared and quickly called Mr. Raul."Hey, sweetie. Our baby is in danger" She said in a shaky voice."Calm down and explain to me what's going on"Alicia explained what had happened to Mr. Raul."What? What was she thinking? I'll go meet with Alpha Amber now. You go to her and see if you can help her.""Okay, dear" she said and ended the call.She grabbed a few things she thought she might be needing and rushed out of the house. She got into the car, ignited it and drove off at a fast speed. After about twenty minutes of driving, she arrived at the hospital. She raced out of the car and was about running into one of the wards when a nurse stopped her."Please, calm down, ma'am. This is not allowed in here. Who are you looking for?" The chubby nurse asked in a calm voice."Cooper...... I'm here to see Cooper" She panted heavily."Okay, I'll take you to his ward" She said and led the way to his ward but she was rather too slow for Alicia.Once they opened the door, they found
The very next day, Jaeleah went to the hospital where Cooper was. She met a skinny nurse at the reception."Good morning, nurse. I'm here to see Mr. Cooper" She said with a smile but the nurse glared at her and rolled her eyes."How are you related to him?" She asked few seconds later."I can't disclose that but Alpha Amber instructed me to check up on him today.""Oh! You must be Jaeleah" She said with a fake smile and Jaeleah nodded with a glare."I'm sorry. His ward is the last one by the left on the first floor" she said and Jaeleah went towards the direction without saying a word."So pompous!" The nurse cussed.Jaeleah looked back with a grin."I heard what you just said. Be careful!." She warned and went her way.Jaeleah had seen him from the window before she walked into the ward. Cooper was placed on a life saving machine, his skin was pale and had developed bed sore but was neatly treated. She moved closer to him and felt his pulse and other vital organs and she shook her h
A week later (at the Blue pack school)It was the Wolves Day Feast of another set of young wolves and this was special because Alpha Amber and her family were invited and Miss Peyton was going to surprise her daughter.The ceremony started in the early afternoon with one of the school instructor giving an opening speech and followed by Miss Peyton. She was dressed in a bright purple dress that rested comfortably on her knees - she looked deeply happy as she mounted the platform to address the audience."Good afternoon, all. I want to thank you all for honouring my invitation to be here today to celebrate the young wolves who are going to be joining the society today. Special thanks to Alpha Amber, one of our past students for making time out of her busy schedules to make it down here today. Today is a really special day in my life as it helps me reconnect with my friends, family and loved ones. Without taking much of our time, let the ceremony begin." She concluded and loud applaud fi
Two days later, Amber, Ignacio, Angel, the journalist, Iris and Jennifer met at a bus station close to Amber's house. They drove down to a small village in the city where the caller (Amelia) lived. Iris, Ignacio and Jennifer were all nervous while the journey was on - they don't know what to expect.After about two and half hours drive, the cars pulled to a halt in front of a tattered house. They all alighted from the car, Amelia was at the door to welcome them."Welcome to my tattered abode, Alpha Amber" She bowed in respect."Thanks" She mumbled.She gestured them in. She served them some chilled water and sat on one of the rugged chairs."Thank you all so much for honouring me by coming down here""It's our utmost pleasure" Angel said"So, may we please begin the show?" The journalist asked."Sure, go ahead" Amelia responded.The cameras were switched on and the airing began."Good morning to all our viewer. Here we are to round up the story we started last week, with Mrs. Jennifer
Jennifer pointed at a guard and Amber ordered that he be brought out to the front."Are you sure, aunt Jennifer, that he was the one that delivered the letter to you?""I can't be wrong. He's the one" She responded firmly.Amber turned to take a look at the guard."Were you the one that delivered a letter to her?" She asked but the guard kept mute."You think this is a kind of joke, don't you? Give me the gun" She turned to the chief guard and commanded.He handed her a gun and she pointed it at the timid guard."I'll ask just once more. Were you the one that delivered the letter to her?" She roared."Yes, yes!" He trembled in fear."Good!" She let out a soft huff."Who instructed you to give her the letter?""It was Jenna, the woman in the prison. She offered me a taste of her body and In return, I was to deliver the letter to her.""You know Jenna is a hardened criminal and you dare help her against my permission?""I'm sorry, Alpha Amber. Please, pardon me!" He went to his knees a
Jennifer was confused if Jenna really had the power to wake Cooper but she is a real witch and can actually do it. She was about to agree on the deal when she had a rethink and decided to talk to Angel about it first. She took the letter and headed to Angel's room.She knocked softly on the door."Come in" Angel responded to the knock.The door opened and Jennifer walked it. She pulled out a small stool and sat down. She stretched the letter to Angel who received it with her brows raised."What's this?" She asked as she took the letter from her."Read it"Angel unfolded the letter and went through it. "Wow! This Jenna is really the devil. How could she even think of such plot?" She asked rhetorically, her gaze still on the letter.Then she looked up at her."This could only implicate you. I don't think you should get yourself involved in any of this. I mean, if she wanted to help Cooper, she would have done it long before now.""That's true!" Jennifer nodded."I don't want to fall vi
