When Alexa came to, she found herself in bed. At first, she thought it was the bed her abductors had bound her in but this was a different kind of bed. 'Where am I? she asked no one in particular as her eyes grew accustomed to the light. 'Thank goodness, you are awake!' Hector, the Lyncan king said.'You are in the hospital. 'It is YOU?' Alexa said surprised. 'How did I get here?' Then she recalled all that happened. 'And most importantly, how did you find out?' 'Didn't you want me to find out? he asked, shaking his head in disappointment. 'Camellia called, for your information. She was badly injured. How could you do such a thing to your own sister?' Hector asked, a disapproving look on his face. 'What are you talking about?' she asked, thinking, thank goodness Camellia did not die. 'You used your powers to cause a lot of harm to your own sister!' he said. 'I know that the both of you didn't see eye to eye in a lot of things but murder?' she shook his head in disbelief. 'If she
Seeing there was no talking her out of going home, Hector shrugged. 'It's none of my business if there's a relapse due to insufficient treatment', he said. As they walked towards the exit, a frail voice called out. 'Hector, is that you?' 'Come and see what you did to your own sister!' Hector said, dragging Alexa into the room where Camellia was lying on the bed. Alexa looked her half sister over and could not see much injury. Hector had clearly exaggerated it. 'Why is she here?' Camellia asked the Lyncan king. 'I'm glad, you are okay, Camellia', Alexa said. 'The way I heard it, I was expecting you to be covered up in bandages but you don't look like anything untoward happened to you!' 'Were you hoping to see me in a worse condition?' she asked, looking very pitiful. 'If you try what you did today, again, then your fate will be worse than that of those men!' she said and walked away. 'Hector, did you hear that?' Camellia said, drawing Hector back as he made to follow Alexa out
On the way to his house, Hector was fuming. How had he been cursed with such a mate? he thought. She had other Mates. And these Mates were not even werewolves, that would have been bearable but mates of other species, a vampire and a wizard, for goodness sake! Species, werewolves were estranged from. Who really are you, Alexa? And what kind of power did you use to kill those men? 'So, you have both a vampire and wizard mates in addition to me?' the Lyncan king asked, looking at Alexa, his right hand on the steering wheel while the left was stroking his jaw, thoughtfully. 'Hector, I cannot do this now!' she replied. 'I didn't mate myself to either you nor them. If you have a problem with that, I suggest you take it up with the Moon Goddess!' 'Is there any other mate I should know about?' he asked, looking at her as though she was a mystery. 'I have not found out any other one yet, but I promise when I do, you will be the first to know!' she snapped. Any other one in deed! she thoug
'Alexa, what is going on?' Wayne asked as soon as they got home and the children went into their room. 'What do you mean?' she asked stalking for time. She knew what he meant and wanted to explain everything to him but saying it in the presence of Myles... well maybe it was even better that way. So that she wouldn't have to do it again. 'You know exactly what I mean, Alexa', he said, looking at her with disapproval. 'You found your lost son and the father of your pups and you never thought it fit to let me know?' he asked and there was hurt in his voice. 'I thought I meant much more to you than this. Why am I even overthinking it, maybe it is not my right to know. Afterall, I was just good enough as a stand in father and no more!' His words hurt Alexa. 'What are you even saying? she asked. 'How can you think that of me?' 'What do you want me to think given all I found out today?' he asked. 'What are the both of you talking about?' Myles who had kept quiet since they got back aske
Camellia was not happy at the turn of events but thank goodness as she had smartly turned the circumstance to her advantage. Though, Hector was not being too demonstrative, he was at least being attentive. I have to make use of this opportunity to get intimate with him so that he won't have any choice but to marry me, she thought. She was going to be discharged that day and she was happy she was going home to put her plans into action. All of a sudden as she was stretching, she felt sick and rushed into the restroom where she poured her guts out into the closet. What is the meaning of this?' she thought. Did I catch a bug or something? That girl, Alexa must have infused something into my body when she used her powers that day, she decided. She went back to her bed in the hospital after washing up. Once the doctor came to check up on her. She decided to ask him about it. 'Doc. I threw up and I'm still feeling weak. Could this be a side effect of the drug you are giving me or have I
Camellia did not have long to wait as the Lyncan king made his appearance soon and was happy Camellia was ready. He had thought she was going to make him wait while she got packed. At least she could obey instructions. As they drove home, Camellia thought where the best place was for her to carry out her plans and decided to go to a hotel. 'You said there was something you wanted to show me, something very important', Hector started. 'What can it be?' he asked, looking sideways at her. 'It is something special and for something that special, we have to go to somewhere special to see it', she said, looking straight ahead. Her heart was beating frantically. She hoped she doesn't make any mistakes. 'Special place?' he asked. like where exactly?' 'Can I trouble you to take me to a hotel?' she asked. 'A hotel!' Hector said, wondering what she was up to. 'Whatever for?' 'You shall see when we get there!' she said. 'Please. You have never taken me out on a date before. Now that you ar
Camellia walked up to Hector and collected the phone from him and placed it on the bed. He was still looking at her as though he couldn't take his eyes off her. She wrapped her arms round his neck and kissed his lips. He still did nothing. Why was he not responding? Circling his arms round me? she thought but refused to be discouraged. She had come this far and was not about to quit now! Thankfully there was a bed in the room, she unbuttoned his shirt and pushed him into the bed and climbed into bed, straddling him. He was still staring at her. She started bringing down the hand of her bra and that was when he sprung into action, stilling her hand. Finally! she thought. His touch sent a rush of desire pulsing through her. He placed her hands down by her side and pushed her into the bed and she felt like screaming with pleasure. He was going to be ruthless in his possession of her like she had always fantasized and she could not wait. The Lyncan king stood up, Camellia looked up wi
The Lyncan king swayed as he tried to get to the door, his vision becoming blurred and doubled. 'What did you put in my drink?' he asked. 'What are you talking about?' Camellia asked, going to hold him. 'You are dizzy, why don't you sit on the bed for a while, at least till you regain your strength?' she asked. Hector pushed her away and opened the door to her shock. He staggered to the living room and out the door to the hotel downstairs where he immediately got into the car already waiting for him. 'Drive!' he ordered Samuel, who needed no other prompting as he saw his boss in that condition. 'Boss, what's wrong with you?' Samuel asked. 'You look...' 'Drugged', Hector finished for him. 'I've been drugged by Camellia. She wanted me to sleep with her, when I refused, she drugged my drink. I need a drug to counter the effect!' Samuel drove to a pharmacy and got him the drug and a bottle of water. After swallowing the drug, Hector started to feel cooler and better. Earlier, when
