SALLY'S POV I woke up feeling a severe headache. I looked around the place, alpha Derek wasn't anywhere in the room, he had probably left for the meeting with the council of elders. I knew he was stressed, and I regret adding to the stress, but I just acted due to the way I was led by my emotions. He had been through a lot the past few days. And although it was evident he was still trying so hard to hide it from me. He didn't want me to know what was going on in his mind, but there was no point hiding it since I already knew from the way he lost weight drastically within the week. I was also hearing small gossip from people about the ongoing in the city of Dell Hall. I sat up on my bed, I was trying hard not to overthink about the issues that had clouded the whole of the pack. I was more annoyed about what had happened today. Everything began playing afresh in my head. Flash Back. Sarah and I walked onto the market, with the pack house domestic servants behind us carrying our b
ALPHA DEREK'S POV "You have failed us Derek, you have failed us as people. We do no want your greetings until you have delivered the the book of accounts, and everything has been restored back to normal", one of the elders said to me. "Yes, we want to see your book of accounts, we want to know what is happening. Why have the foreigners stopped supplying water? Food? Why is there scarcity? No regular electricity? They have not been paid or what?" And another elder asked me. I signaled my assistant and the accountant to come out with the book of accounts and my accountant stood up. She opened her bag and brought out three big book of accounts. She placed it on the table and sat back on her sit. I picked up the book of accounts, my hands were wobbling but I tried to control it. I have never been in this kind of situation my while life. This is really stressing me out, and I couldn't wait for it all to be over. The eldest among the elders took the books from me. Others gathered a
ALPHA DEREK'S POV "Let us leave, and hope that when we return, they will have what we have asked for", elder Simon said to the rest of the elders and they nodded. They all stood up and began walking out of the place while I and my workers acted as though we were glued to the chair. We waited for them to walk far enough before moving from our seats. It was as if Camilla, Karen, and Michael had rehearsed this day before now. The three of them stood up from their seats at the same time and were about to proceed out of the place at the same time. "Stop there you three!" I ordered and the three of them stopped at the same time. "Come back to your seats, we are only done with the first meeting, the second meeting is just about to start", I said. "About to start how? We were not informed about the fact that we have two meetings, and I didn't plan on staying longer than this", Karen complained. "The three of you should get back to your seats right away", I ordered. I wondered at her c
SALLY'S POV I waited and waited patiently for Alpha Derek to return from the meeting, but it seemed like it was taking forever. Whenever I would hear footsteps from outside the door, I would get excited only for my hope to fall. I was getting bored staying all alone in the room. I would have gone to Sarah's room, but it was late, I may be bothering her, also alpha Derek may not like it. He may not be too comfortable with my over-closeness with Sally but wouldn't know how to come out with it and tell me. I would lie in bed, roll around, stand up, pick up my phone, and drop it. I did a whole lot of things, including counting one to one hundred up to five times, yet alpha Derek was nowhere to be found. I wasn't feeling sleepy one bit. Even if I did feel sleepy, I wouldn't sleep without alpha Derek. I wanted to open the door for him when he would return home, read his facial expression, hug him, and hear him out in case he needed someone to talk to. I also wanted to talk to him, but
ALPHA DEREK'S POV "Have you all gone dumb?" I asked them. "I have asked a simple question, or do you lack comprehension? What is the plan after this?" I fired at them. "Sir, we only did this so you can have enough time to decide what would happen and to prepare to face the outcome, we didn't know that the idea wouldn't go down well with you. We are very sorry", Karen apologized. "Now how does that even answer my question? How?" I asked. A knock came on the door, and we all turned in the direction of the door, after waiting for a very little time and the knock came again, Camilla stood up from her seat and began walking towards the door, while the rest of us watched in anticipation. She opened the door immediately she got three and stretched her neck outside to see and attend to whoever it was that was at the door. She and the person talked in a low tone for a few minutes, one would easily think there were making incarnations or discussing a secret. She walked back into the m
SALLY'S POV I concluded in my head that the only person who would have knocked on the door was the kitchen assistant. I didn't think of any other person aside from her. I was infuriated and irritated because what part of I do not want to what was too difficult for her to understand? I gathered all my annoyance and began walking towards the door angrily. Since she was too dumb to understand simple English, I would force it into her head the hard way and would make sure not to feel remorseful after doing it. Since she was too young to be sensible, I was trying not to get annoyed, I was trying to get my head together and get busy with something, so it would take my mind away from alpha Derek, and also take my mind from the food that was being served and enjoyed in the dining hall. I quickly glanced at the wall clock, only to find out that it was already part of dinner time. It made me wonder even more why she was here. What was it this time? Was she doing it intentionally? Or wa
ALPHA DEREK'S POV I woke up the next morning feeling very refreshed. Sally was still fast asleep, so I decided to stand up gently in order not to make a noise, so Sally wouldn't wake up from her sleep. I walked out of bed, and straight to the bathroom to freshen up. I was famished, I needed to eat something as soon as possible. I got into the bathroom and quickly had a shower and brushed my teeth as well. When I returned, Sally was still fast asleep. I couldn't wake her up, so I decided to just pray that she woke up before breakfast time since I was so hungry. I walked over to the fridge, picked a small tray from the top of the fridge, and held it flay in my left hand. I also opened the fridge, brought out a bottle of juice, precisely the particular bottle Sally had opened yesterday, and placed it on the tray. I picked up a glass cup and also placed it on the tray and walked back to the bed where I sat and placed the tray on a small table beside me. I opened the bottle and turne
SALLY'S POV Alpha Derek and I were having a good time at the beach. He would carry me on his back and walk around the place. Sometimes, he would chase me around, and other times, I would be the one to chase him around. I wished the day would never come to an end, so we would not return to the pack house that would remind me of so many things. I had a whole lot of things that I wanted to talk to al0ha Derek about and when he said that we shouldn't talk about our problems, we should forget about it for today, I wasn't okay with the idea at first. But I was beginning to find it interesting, and I began to wish every other day would remain like this. It seemed all fun and peaceful. There was no need to worry about anything. All you had to do was have fun, have fun to the fullest, and pretend you were just a newborn baby with not even a single worry. "What are you thinking about Sally?" Alpha Derek asked as he moved closer to me and pecked my forehead. I was seated on the bare floor
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
