ALPHA DEREK'S POV "Tell me", Sally said as she stood up from the bed and walked up to sit beside me. "What are you going to do with Lisa and Cara?" I asked Sally as she sat beside me. "I don't know yet, maybe we should lock them up in the dungeon", she replied. "So what are you going to do with me?" She asked me. "I don't know, I will need your parents to consent first to decide what I would do with you", I replied. "You needed my permission first, now my parent's blessing. Wow!" Sally exclaimed. "I do need their blessings before going any further with you Sally", I said and held her hands in mine. "I do love you, I do. But I can't, I just can't do anything with you, until I have gotten the consent of your parents and also Lucas", I explained further. She looked at me for a while, and then she sighed. "I get your point now", she said and rested her head on my shoulder. A knock was heard on the door and we both turned to face the door. "Who is there?" Sally asked. "It's
ALPHA DEREK'S POV I thought I had acted too first and took my lips away from her immediately, even though I was enjoying the kiss and it had only lasted for a few seconds I had stopped myself from kissing her immediately. I had made a promise to her that I wouldn't touch her without her parent's blessings, and even though we weren't in our room, just kissing could easily lead to something else. "I am sorry I didn't give you a heads up or ask for your permission first," I apologized to her. "It's fine," she replied shyly and forced a smile. She moved away from me and started walking quickly out of the pack house hospital, and I followed quickly behind her. I didn't want to regret the kiss, but still, I wouldn't have done that. We walked into the room and closed the door. I knew Sally was nervous and shy with me, so I tried not to get in her way, I also avoided talking to her since she wasn't talking to me either. I slept on the couch, letting her sleep alone in bed. Sleeping w
SALLY'S POV Alpha Derek and I locked our hands tightly in one another's, as the driver started the car engine and drove off from the pack house. I rested my head on his shoulder and closed my eyes, I was nodding my head to the tune of the beat that was coming from the radio, fixed permanently in the car. Alpha Derek caressed my fingers, the same fingers that were tightly locked in his. I began feeling sleepy, but I tried to stay awake in order not to bore him during the journey. I was bothered about what we were going to face in front of us. I was more worried about alpha Derek, I knew my parents would seize the opportunity once again and find something bad to say about him, they would curse him to his face and would use harsh words to him. He wasn't used to any of those, it was a fucking fact, and the fact that he was ready to endure all of those for me. Things would also be difficult for me because we were going to face alpha, Lucas. I still had feelings for him, at least a bit,
SALLY'S POV I turned around abruptly, and Alpha Derek did the same. I expected this. I knew that my mom wouldn't just let Alpha Derek and I leave the pack house like that. She would come after us and stop us from leaving. "Mom," I called emotionally, as I hurried back to catch up with her. She had opened the door, called me back, and stood in front of the door waiting for me. I rushed to her and hugged her passionately. "We can't let him take you away from us," Mom said, still hugging me tightly. "I can't go away from you either," I replied. "Let's go in and talk," Mom urged as she began pulling my hand. "Stop!" I said as I stopped abruptly and turned around to look at Alpha Derek. He was still standing at the spot. "I can't go in without him, I mean, there is no way I am leaving him here, right?" I asked Mom. "I will be uncomfortable with him around me," Mom replied, and I scoffed. "So you are suggesting I go in and just leave him here? Of course, you know that can't happe
SALLY'S POV Alpha Lucas had come with his parents and my dad. Someone must have told them about our coming. That was the reason my dad had gone over to their place and had returned with alpha Lucas and his parents. "Greetings", I bowed in front of them. "Greetings", alpha Derek greeted them as well and sat on his seat. I waited for everyone else in the room to get seated before doing the same. Alpha Derek took my hand in his and locked my fingers tightly in between his own. For some reason, I was tempted to look at alpha Lucas, and his eyes were glued to our locked fingers. I felt nervous, I felt a bit bothered and uncomfortable. I could see the disapproval and anger in alpha Lucas's eyes, we had agreed that forever would be the goal, I had told him that I loved him, yet right in his presence I was locking fingers with another man. "Be confident Sally, you are not doing anything wrong", alpha Derek whispered to me, and I sighed. For a fact, I wasn't really doing anything wrong
SALLY'S POV I turned to look at alpha Derek, he would understand if I decided to choose my parents over him and would keep coming to me. But I wasn't ready to make him go through all of that, plus I love him so much to take such chances with him. "Sally, you are to make your choice today, it's either him or us so choose", father insisted. I stood up to my feet. I stared at Alpha Derek, I moved my eyes to Alpha Lucas, his dad, his mom, my mom, and then my dad. "Family is indeed everything", I said and stared at the expression on everyone's face. The smile must dad had on and the way he nodded proved that he thought I was going to choose him. It wasn't a competition after all there was no need to get all excited or feel so entitled to anything. "In as much as we are fighting to choose family because that is the best thing to do, we should also fight to be with our fated mate. The moon goddess doesn't make any mistakes, she has never, and will never. When she chose me for Dere
ALPHA DEREK'S POV I and Sally walked out of the house, and her whole body vibrated in fear, I knew at once that she was scared and sad at the same time. We walked over to my car and got in. I made her rest her head on my chest, and I began caressing her hair gently. She was still in shock and wouldn't say a word, her whole body still vibrating in fear and shock. "Don't be scared, honey, everything is surely going to be fine", I said to her. "You don't have to get scared, you don't have to be worried honey, everything will fall into place, we will return, we will keep coming until they finally accepted us", I assured her. She lay on my chest as I continued rubbing her calmly. The car zoomed off, I sighed deeply immediately after we drove out of the moonlight pack house. I held Sally even more tightly and cuddled her. As we drove through the bush part I began to notice strange movements around the bush parts. I focused on the side mirror, I began seeing strange movements around the
ALPHA DEREK'S POV Yes, I got stabbed, but y'all don't forget so quickly that I can't die. I held the sword tightly ignoring the blood that was gushing out of my palm. Of course, the sword tore my arm, but it was going to heal after all. I pulled it out of my stomach forcefully and used it on my attacker. I took his head off quickly, it was just an easy task. Seeing the sword pierce my driver angered me so much that I became red in anger, I took another sword and began fighting fiercely using my both hands. I left Sally's back and began venturing into their midst where they all stood and were coming forward to attack bit by bit. And I also didn't forget, the person that had called my name then was my chief warrior, he had arrived with a few other warriors and they joined the battle immediately. Seeing the pace at which we were reducing their numbers they all began to retreat bit by bit. "Don't let them get away, attack and capture them all", I ordered and my warriors began captur
AUTHOR'S POV Sally dressed up quickly and hurried to the sitting room to see who was looking for her. She was shocked to see Hayden seated on the couch together with a strange man. She had come from her new home to see her. She rushed to her and hugged her tightly. "Where have you been Hayden? I've been asking Alpha Lucas about you?" I asked her. "I have been here boo. I got married to a pretty human since the crisis affected my last boyfriend. He died, and I moved on. Here is my husband Churchill, and my daughter Suzanne", she introduced. Sally walked to them, shook hands with Churchill, and hugged the pretty kid. "Hold old are you Suzanne?" Sally asked her. "I am three years old", she replied. "Wow! I found my son a pretty wife", Sally exclaimed and they all laughed. Sally and Hayden had a lot of catching up to do. Hayden talked to Sally about moving into the dark pack house, and they spoke to Alpha Derek about it, he agreethemwholeheartedly and a mansion was prepared for
AMELIA'S POVI found myself alone on the couch when I woke up the next morning, I was comfortably wrapped in warm clothes which I did not remember putting around myself. I thought probably the pimp must have been the one to put the clothes around me. I remembered how he had hugged me last night when he was trying to console me and distract me from all of my thoughts last night. I smiled as I wrapped myself more comfortably in the cloth. I was happy and felt consoled by his presence, even though I did not have any idea when he had gone away. My eyes moved to the clock in the sitting room and I immediately sprang up from the couch. I remembered that today was not just a Monday but also a work day and a school day too. And I had overslept. I stood up from the couch immediately and ran to my children's room to start getting them ready for school. I was surprised when I opened the door and found them already dressed for school, the pimp was there and helping them to pack their bags.
SALLY'S POV The D_day finally came, the day that alpha Derek and I would be joined together including alpha Lucas and Sarah. We performed the rites and moved to our house for eating and drinking. The whole community was in attendance, and Ralia and Stephen who had also gotten married were not left behind. They attended the wedding ceremony and celebrated in our joy with us. I have never been more excited. Things have finally fallen into place, and it was finally time to reveal the secret I have been keeping from alpha Lucas ever since after the war. I waited for the whole wedding to come to an end, and waited for everything to settle, before bringing the issue up. Diamond had been enrolled in the Wizard and dark beings school of Oaks. He was away in school so I decided to use the opportunity to talk to alpha Derek about the little girl Ama who had not grown into an adorable young lady. "I want to talk to you about something Derek", I said to him, drawing what no one knew about, o
ALPHA DEREK'S POV I have made up my mind that I was going back to the pack house, and I wasn't changing it no matter what. Moving to another town wasn't a blessing after all, and it was a good idea as I had thought. When I saw Sally, I thought it was a way fate decided to bring us back together but I was wrong. Nothing good came out of staying in the new environment. My son would have died because of me, but thank goodness I was able to heal him before the issue escalated. I packed my belongings, my private ride was already waiting for me, and I needed to get back to the dark pack before it was late. I had already arranged for my private jet to come to pick me up, and I was ready to fly back and forget I ever visited this place talk more of seeing Sally or any other person. I walked into the open field where my private jet was waiting for me. The security that drove me there helped me pack my stuff inside. I took one last look at the whole of the place before I entered inside. I
SALLY'S POV I sat beside my son at the hospital and tears kept rolling down my cheeks. I knew he wouldn't heal on his own because his powers hadn't manifested yet, and he was still just a baby. I was angry at myself for placing my son through all the trauma I am putting him through. Ralia was crying too while Stephen tried to console me. Her hands were shaking. She had seen Diamond pick up the knife and slice his wrist, and she was unable to stop him, the trauma was making her whole body tremble in fear, as we watched our son lying lifeless with the drip in his hand. "I caused all of this, it was all my fault", I cried. Ralia crawled towards me, she had been lying on the floor and rolling herself, crying her eyes out the whole time. "It, was all my fault Sally, I am so sorry", she pleaded. "No it's not your fault", I replied. Stephen sat beside me and sighed. "Ralia and I discovered we loved each other after I moved into the house. She told me about your situation, that you
SALLY'S POV it's been two weeks since the incident with alpha Derek, and the one with Ralia and Stephen. I locked myself up in my room crying all day, and it wasn't getting any less messy. I was mad at Ralia, I blamed her for everything, including the fact that I had sex with my ex. Images of the hot sex and the way I rode him flooded my head, and I felt very disgusted thinking about it alone. Every single day I cried myself into a stupor. Diamond was oblivious to what was happening, he had no idea I was still in my room, and I trusted Ralia and Stephen to take good care of him, it wasn't news that they loved him so much like he was their son so I left him with them. I heard a noise and different voices from outside, I peeped through my window and saw uniformed men standing outside the house. I wondered what they wanted, and I tried to activate my werewolf ears to hear what was going on. I heard them talking about taking Diamond away, and I sighted Diamond holding firmly onto al
ALPHA DEREK'S POV. "One more shot please", I ordered more bear and they didn't stop serving me. If anyone told me I would ever go back to drinking, I would never believe it. And the thing about drinking over here, there would be no one to stop me. I left the house very early and decided that drinking myself into a stupor was the only solution. I was about to open another bottle when I saw Sally staggering out of the bar. I stood up and rushed to her, I held her from behind and she tried to push me away. "It's me, it's me Derek", I said to her. Although I was drunk, I didn't lose my senses entirely, I still knew where I was, and who was who. "I_ I thought you said you were not Derek?" Sally asked me. "I am sorry, I didn't want us to begin on that foot", I apologized. "No, you said you liked Ralia, everyone does so go be with her", she replied. "Okay let's get you home. You are drunk Sally", I said. "Hahaha, see who is talking", she mocked. "Sally", I called. I carried he
SALLY'S POV To let peace reign, alpha Derek now known as Desmond agreed to marry Ralia, she also pretended to be excited about the news, Diamond asked them to hug each other, and they did, and it all ended there. Alpha Derek spent almost the whole day with us, we had so much fun and I almost forgot our differences. The five years apart from him had changed him so much, and he was now the opposite of his formal self. He knew so much about life and humility, he also knew so much about the human world, how it worked, and about empathy. I was falling in love with alpha Derek even more than ever, but I wasn't ready to reunite with him no matter what. He had hurt me so badly, and the injuries would never heal no matter how hard I tried to make it work. Diamond fell asleep in Alpha Derek's hands, and Ralia and Stephen were still very busy clearing up the kitchen, while I was having a chat with Alpha Derek. The both of us walked together to Diamond's room, and even though Alpha Derek sai
AUTHOR'S POV Alpha Derek saw Diamond walking out of the room with Stephen and Ralia and quickly put on a plain face. "Oh, he already met my real mommy", Diamond said excitedly jumping toward, Sally. The words made Alpha Derek's heart skip a bit. And then it began pounding hard, even more than it did when he had hugged his son. Diamond held his mother's hand and walked towards alpha Derek, while Ralia walked behind still in a state of shock. She counted her steps gently, and she didn't expect that alpha Derek was the guest to appear in their house today. The one Diamond was so crazy about. Blood is thicker than water, she thought. "Meet my real mommy Sally", Diamond said stretching her hands towards his. He stared at her hand for a while, when he noticed the look on Diamond's face, he quickly took Sally's hand. "I am_" "_Desmond", Diamond took the word from his mouth. "Desmond, and Diamond", he added with a smile. Ralia stepped forward and shook alpha Derek as well. "I
