ALPHA DEREK'S POV My parents were finally at the airport, the whole feast plan and everything I planned out the first, second, and even the third time they had promised to come back home didn't work out this time, because I didn't plan any feast or grand welcoming. I thought my parents were going to disappoint one more time, I was shocked when they called so early in the morning to inform me they were already at the airport. I had to send the spare driver and took time to explain to him the reasons he'd delay them on their way to the pack house because he was surely gonna delay them for me. I immediately asked all the servants to get to work, while the kitchen workers quickly started making preparations for stuff to be prepared in the kitchen. It wasn't a big feast, just a semi-regular dinner, so it would be completely cooked and all ready by the time, my parents arrived at the house. It had always been like this, even when I was a kid, I was left at the mercy of my godfather while
ALPHA DEREK'S POV I looked closely at Sally, I even had to wipe my face over and over again to ensure I was seeing clearly but Sally's face was still the same. A complete mess. The excess makeup on her face, and the purposely over-drawn eye pencil, it was funny to everyone present in the dining room including the servants whose table were behind ours. "Quiet!" I ordered angrily and the whole room went as quiet as a graveyard. "Who did this?" I asked fiercely turning to face the makeup artiste who I had employed especially to fix Sally's makeup. She immediately fell to her knees and folded her hands in front of her in an intentional apology position. I looked down at her with a raving eye and wished my anger which was burning like the flames from the red fire would explode on her head and consume her completely. "What did you do? Do you think all this is a joke?" I thundered down at her yet it wasn't enough. The words that shook the whole mansion of the moonlight pack were too weak
SALLY'S POV I was overconfident and doing my shit thinking I was being cool and Alpha Derek would let me return to Alpha Lucas's mansion once he had seen that it was obvious that I didn't want to be with him, and that my heart belonged to Derek but I was completely wrong. I had thought this would finally be my freedom day, he would get to realize that I love Lucas and not him, then he would ask that I be taken back to the moonlight pack and then he would go out there and find another mate for himself. He would go back to the moon goddess and tell her his heart belonged to someone else, and she should give him another mate. Or better still check properly if she hadn't made any mistakes. I thought he would see reasons with me, I didn't have to be in a pathetic condition first or go on my knees to beg him. My pride wouldn't let ms do so and I wouldn't either. Reality dawned on me when my mouth wouldn't shut up until it was short forcefully by the deep stab. Alpha Derek had picked up
SALLY'S POV Derek took his hands away from me and took a few steps backward. "You are, you..." Paused for a while staring at me unbelievably fathoming what exactly the problem was and why alpha Derek was acting the way he was acting. Alpha Derek picked up the jacket he had placed on the hanger and hurried out of the room. "What did he see that made him so scared?" I asked but of course, there was no one present in the room to give me the answer I need so there was no need to expect it. I stayed in the room for a while before two guards came in to get me back to my room, they had picked me up and made sure to lock the door properly before leaving. I returned to my room, sat on my bed, and began to sob. Sobbing had become my second name, I didn't do anything else other than cry a day with no one to console me, I would cry myself to sleep, yet it wouldn't be enough, as I will still have to cry the whole day. It gave me so much cause to worry, and my whole system was getting weak. I
SALLY'S POV "What do you mean by the makeup artist was the last stroke to break the camel's back?" I asked. My heartbeat had doubled and I could hear the sound of my own heart pounding like a piece of yam in a mortar. I could hear my heart racing, and my whole body shook in fear of what Derek must have done to the woman, and once again it was all my fault that someone else was in pain. "Was that not the reason you were crying?" Sarah asked looking at me surprisingly and I became more anxious. I could feel my own throat burning, it was burning like a piece of wood was lit up and placed there, I could feel the dear in my system like it was going to overwhelm me and I was so scared because there was absolutely nothing I would do about it. "I do not have the slightest idea what you are talking about", I replied and I could hear the fear in my voice as it shook. Sarah's suspense was killing me, all I wished for at that moment was to place my hand on her chest and read her heart, and I
SALLY'S POV "An escape plan? You must be kidding me, right?" I asked, staring at Sarah unbelievably. "Am I? You don't want to escape?" Sarah asked. "I am not sure about this escape plan you are bringing up. How am I going to escape with the right security in the pack house?" I asked. "Are you in or out?" She asked. "What do you think? Of course I'm out", I said. I wasn't about to have another soul get killed because of me. I would so much grab the opportunity and escape if it were that easy, but I can't be selfish... Risking Sarah's life because I want to escape and have a romance life with alpha Lucas, alpha Derek would never spare her life if anything goes wrong during the escape. The security in the mansion is so tight, and there was no way we were going to get through without getting caught. "What are you thinking about?" Sarah asked me, bringing me back to reality. "I am thinking about the plan", I replied. "You are considering it?" She asked excitedly. "Of course not,
SALLY'S POV "Okay then, let's eat first", Sarah replied, as she stood up from the bed and started walking towards the table, she stopped beside the table, picked the tray of food and returned to the bed with it. She placed the food on the bed between us, then took her sit afterwards. She took off the tray that was used to cover the other tray, and then one after another, she took off the ceramics that were used to cover each food. "What is all of these?" I screamed at the sight of the food Sarah had revealed. The food was just too much for anyone to be able to finish. "I figured you'd invite me for breakfast, so I decided to make it two in one", she replied and winked at me. "Is this two in one? Or is it four in one?" I asked with my eyes agape, and Sarah laughed at my question. The food was just too much, and that only meant Sarah had a huge appetite, I wouldn't blame her though, she worked all day in the kitchen, so the food would be very close to her reach, and she would get t
SALLY'S POV it's been a month now since Sarah and I cancelled the escape plan, it was of no use in the first place, so we decided to cancel it. I wouldn't leave my mom at alpha Derek's mercy, at least not now. Alpha Derek had changed completely towards me, he had become so brutal and merciless. He would always sleep with other women in the pack, he always had one reason or the other to scold me or belittle me, he would bring me to the dining table and force me to sit and it with him, while other women would flock around him giving him a massage while he ate. It irritated me, not because I cared about whatever he decided and does with his life, but because an act of immorality pulled out in front of me gives me goosebumps. My life was getting messy every other day and every other day I get a new reason to take my own life. I was getting miserable by the day and the only option whenever I thought about it was suicide. Was there anything to live for? Was there any more reason for exis
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
