As Alexa travelled back home to her pups and the Lyncan king, she could not help thinking how messed up and cruel life was.'It would be easier if any of these mates were cruel but they are all deserving of me and my pups. The person I doubt his qualification is even the person I seem to be ending up with! she missed. Hector, the Lyncan king was the least deserving of her and her pups. 'He got me pregnant and left without a word. I carried the babies without help or word from him!' she muttered to herself. 'I nearly died at childbirth and he was not there. What kind of a Lyncan king Hector s he if he could not smell that he had pups and that they were in danger and come to their rescue and their mum's?He was not there all through the six years they grew. He didn't partake in their upbringing and training till now and he is being handed the pups on a platter. What has he even done to deserve me or my pups, apart from being the donor of the sperm that fertilized my eggs? she thought u
Camellia felt her phone vibrate in her bag and she brought it out.'Damn!' she said, sighing in resignation. It was Challotte again. Will this woman not allow me some peace? she thought despairingly. She was still trying to wrap her head around the fact that Alexa had other children after Lionel. Humph! It was just a pity that it hadn't been for Hector, else it would have been too bad for those of them who wanted to be Hector's Luna. But she really recovered quickly to have shacked up with another man and had his twins. Wayne was definitely never going to allow Hector marry Alexa, not with his pups! That thought brought a smile to her lips. She didn't like Challotte but since they were working together to bringing down Alexa, she would just pretend and go along with her. Afterwards, she was going to show Challotte who runs the show.'Yes, Challotte?' Camellia answered her phone. 'Any news?''I should be asking you that', Challotte said. 'It's been quite a while now. Aren't we suppose
'A tribrid, Dad', she repeated. 'Why are you so shocked? You knew I was not a pure blood werewolf before now didn't you?' she asked.'I thought you were a hybrid and it was bad enough hiding your identity for as long as I have, but a tribrid?' he shook his head in dismay. 'I hope the Lyncan king and his father will spare you and your pups when they find out! You haven't told Hector, have you?' he asked.'You just expressed your fears about what could happen if I did!' she replied. 'I don't care for myself but my pups. I shall tell him but not just yet. I need to be sure I can trust him first', she said. 'Moreover, our marriage is a contract and I like it that way. Because I plan to flee with my pups at the slightest opportunity!''That is not a great idea at all', her father said, not wanting his daughter to become a refugee like her mother, fleeing because of her identity. 'Tell, Hector. He will not want his pups to be killed, except he is heartless. And he might even help protect th
'Daddy is going to announce to everyone today that he is getting married to mother!' Leigh said to her brothers. 'I am so happy!''Not half as happy as I am!' Landon smiled happily.'Is that not the best birthday gift you have ever received,?' Lionel enthused, smiling with great happiness.'We thank the goddess for her help in accomplishing this!', Landon said. 'Happy birthday to us!''Happy birthday to us!' Lionel said spreading his arms and hugging both of his siblings.'Happy birthday to us all!' Leigh smiled happily as she allowed herself to be engulfed in her brother's arms.Someone came up to stand on the podium and clearing his throat, said, 'I believe the drink is flowing. I'd like to call in the celebrants, the children for which we are gathered here today, to come cut the cake so we can sing to them!''Them?' Camellia murmured astonished. 'Who else was celebrating their birthday with Lionel?' Lionel came out first, followed by Landon and Leigh."What?' Camellia exclaimed. '
Alexa staggered from the shove Camellia gave her as she grabbed the microphone from her. 'Fo not embarrass yourself,get down now and I shall overlook this!''Really?' Alexa said. She had expected this confrontation from Camellia but she had also though she would pipe low, considering the fact that she might have regained her memory but it was obvious Camellia didn't think it possible that she could ever regain her memory. 'You should be the one leaving this place before you end up humiliating yourself!' Alexa said in low tones so only Camellia could hear her.'I am Lionel's mother!' Camellia spoke into the microphone. 'Leave the stage for me to make a toast to my son!''Since this is the way you want to play it', Alexa said, 'don't blame me for what happens next!' she said and grabbed the microphone from Camellia.'I am the biological mother of Lionel'!' Alexa declared and the hum started amongst the guest.'This is a bold declaration', the guests said and Challotte was astonished. Sh
'The best birthday gift I could ever receive is the presence of my siblings celebrating this special day, together with me, with my mother', he said gesturing in the direction of Alexa and my father who is hopefully going to present himself here soonest!'Alexa smiled proudly at Lionel. Such boldness. And why not, he had the Lyncan blood in him and her tribrid's as well, she thought as she smiled.Camellia was speechless. She was not very happy at how things were going. How was she going to embarrass.. no..humiliate Alexa of this went on and if Hector does not come here? Why did he choose today of all days to run his errand?'Woman!' the elder Lyncan said, looking at Camellia. 'Is this how you bring your son up?'he asked. 'Little wonder then that my son is do reluctant to marry you!' Then looking at Lionel, 'I would have disciplined you now but I am letting this slide because today is your birthday. But if this happens again....' he allowed his words hang threateningly.'Darling', Ca
Camellia who had been happy when the Lyncan king's father called Alexa's pups bastards, was shocked as she stared at him. 'You cannot be serious!' she said before she could control her words. Getting a hard stare from the Lyncan king, she said, 'I'm sorry for being so forward, Lyncan king but your father is right. How can you claim those bastards as yours?' Slap! She felt it's stinging pain on her cheek before she could finish her statement and staggered back, her hand on her burning cheek. 'What did I say wrong?' she asked, tears in her eyes. 'What are you doing here, by the way?' the Lyncan king asked. 'Who said you could come and how dare you call my pups, bastards?' he howled. 'I am just looking out for you', she said', 'you may not know the kind of person Alexa is. She's been with a lot of men and those two children are the pups she had with another man! Do you really want to claim another man's pups?' she wailed. 'You are looking out for me?' the Lyncan king scoffed. '
'Vicious bitch!' someone shouted. And Camellia could not agree more. She bit back a smile. Alexa, she thought, you haven't seen anything yet. You think that recovering your memory is going to save you but you underestimate me!'The Lyncan king gave me a ring and told me he was going to make it up to me. I have waited all these years for him to do just that and just when it seemed that he might, this happens and now, I am being asked to go away and not celebrate with my son!'; she wailed unconsolably.Alexa had had enough. She had planned on sparing Camellia as embarrassment and humiliation but she was determined on ruining her own reputation.'Are you saying that I am lying?' the Lyncan king asked.'I do not dare!' Camellia said. 'But she is! She must have fed you with these lies!' she said. 'She never liked nor forgaveme for being the biological daughter. She never appreciated me or my mother for taking her in!''You are a real drama queen, Camellia!' Alexa said. 'What do you hope to
