Derek's POV

.

I knew I should not have used the word 'MY MATE' in front of Stacey, and she might have felt bad about it. But then, I just couldn't take my words, and even if I would try to, then I had no idea how would I explain that part to her?

I hated the fact that the Doctor was calling her 'Mrs. Brown' but I pressed my lips tightly when she didn't bother to correct him. And then she introduced me as Scarlett's boyfriend instead of her husband.

I meant we could pretend again. Was this a sign that she wanted to clear everything that happened between us? Thinking this, my body got tensed, and I started feeling worried because, to be honest, I didn't know how was support to PRETEND like nothing happened when a lot of things had been changed.

I wanted to laugh at my state because this pretending thing was becoming a part of my life; earlier, I had to pretend like I was her love interest, and now I had to pretend like I was her friend. I had no idea how to deal with both the woman in m

Having both his mate and daughter named Scarlet is a little confusing. Hope Stacey is not back with the douche bag!!I can’t respect her if she does. When is she going to find out that she’s pregnant with Derek’s baby? Hope the infertile one is Adam!!

    Stacey's POV."His facial expression was worth watching." Adams joked at first, but he immediately shut his mouth when he sensed my aura. "Stacey, you're scaring me.""Then, you should be scared. Adams." I spoke; my voice was overlapping with Alicia's, indicating to him that we were in no mood to take any shit right now. "Now tell me, why were you so desperate to talk with me?" I asked while driving the car."I was thinking if we could sort out our difference and patch…." Before he could have completed his sentence. Alicia growled at him loudly, giving him the answer to his unasked question."Alicia, we were mates.""Exactly, we WERE mates.", I responded. "And there is no future of our relationship," I made this clear to him. "I'm having this conversation with you, Adams, because I want to clear the air between us. Just because I let you enter in my father's pack and save your ass from getting kicked because I want to give you one last chance to end this issue without creating any sc

    Stacey's POV."Stacey!! We have had a good bonding with Randell's family for years. It won't look good if you aren't here at the wedding.""My decision is firm, Mom. I'm not coming, and that's for my final.""You know that that's not the only reason we are calling you, right?""I'm still not coming.""Your dad is retiring, sweetheart, and he is handing over the pack duties to the new Alpha of the pack, and as per the everyone's votes and everyone's first choice, the new Alpha is Derek, and if you do not come here, then everyone will think that you are jealous of me because your father gave half of his pack to his former's Beta's son.""Do you think I give a damn to that part? I don't care what others will think, but I know Derek, and he will never think of me in that way. He is becoming the new Alpha of the pack because he has all the qualities of the Alpha. In today's age, An Alpha's son or daughter shouldn't become the next Alpha of the pack; instead, the one who deserves and has a

    Derek’s POV.I was going to be the first Alpha in history who was not happy or excited with the fact that I was going to be the leader of the pack from the second most important person of the pack. I always believed that someday I would be the Alpha because I wanted to be an Alpha, but I had to focus on my beta duties first because my Alpha’s daughter had married someone who was liked by no one, and Alpha Asher didn’t want to trust her with her mate alone.Because of that part, I kept my dreams at my side because duty came first, but today I wanted to keep my dreams and duties aside and keep Stacey at first priority.Something was changed in her. She was looking too tired even though she had traveled a journey of a few hours, and not to forget; she was turning paler yet beautiful.And the thing which I didn’t want to mention was the slight change in her scent.Was she marked?That alone thought was ready to kill me. I couldn’t stand seeing her with someone else.I would kill… Kill an

    Stacey's POV.I didn't know how to react to the news that the doctor had just broken.I was already in shock when I had hardly opened my eyes and Alicia started shouting 'MATE' in my mind.Mate? I didn't want any want, mate. I was not ready for any mate. Couldn't I stay single for a while without being mated to anyone? First, Adams, then Derek, and now this guy!! I was having an inner battle about everything when Alicia said.'It's Derek. He is our second chance mate. I know this scent. It's definitely him.', She howled happily, but I wasn't happy about it.We had Derek as our second chance, mate, only when…Did he reject his mate for me? How could he hurt his mate? That thought was making me sick again.'Just stop overthinking. I'm sure we will get to know about everything after talking to him about it.', Alicia said, and that's when the doctor said something, which again shocked me to the core!I was pregnant!I was pregnant!I didn't know how the hell was possible, but before enjo

    Stacey's POV."Do I look like a mini version of mommy now?" I heard my little daughter asking who had worn a little white dress with a crown on her head, made up of white flowers.Jr. Scarlett was going to become the flower girl, and Laila's son was going to be the ring bearer at our wedding. That's why his son, Xander, who was three years old, had worn a dress that was similar to Derek's."Yes! Absolutely.", Sr. Scarlett responded, and then she looked at me.I could never thank her enough for the happiness which came in my life as a Derek. She could have acted like bitch and would have got married to Derek, but for the sake of Derek's happiness, she let him go."You look beautiful.", She gave a compliment."Thank you.", I said wholeheartedly. She tried to hide her sadness behind her smile but failed miserably when I smelt her feelings. "And I'm sorry.""Sorry? Are you feeling sorry for falling in love with Derek?", She asked, arching her brow."No. Not because of that but for hurtin

    Derek's POV.I observed the sleeping figure in my arms. I knew she was a hell of tired because of one after another thing. Instead of home, our car took the route of the airport.Little did we know that we were going on a honeymoon. Everything was planned by our parents already to surprise us. But no surprise could be equal to the news of Stacey's pregnancy.The best, in fact!I had already consulted with the doctor, and there was no issue in traveling as long as she took proper rest. And I promise to let her take rest as much as she wants to. I wasn't going to allow her to do anything and take any stress.I thought she would be awake after reaching the airport, but she didn't. Generally, werewolves never sleep in deep slumber like she was sleeping now. I believe the reason behind her peaceful sleep was that she was with me. I remembered her saying that she trusted herself with me. I picked her in my arms. She stirred a little but again hid her face against my chest.Jason, my new be

    Derek’s POV.The last thing I remembered before I slept was I was holding my mate in my arms and Stacey snuggling closer to me, but in the middle of the night, she just not untangled herself but almost threw me away from the bed forcefully. It wasn’t that she was strong like a hulk, and I was weak as a kid. It was just that I was not prepared for that, and her attack was all of a sudden. Because I could have understood anything, Stacey ran toward the washroom, and the sound of her puking followed after that. I quickly recovered from my state and ran to check on her.Just like the other day, I saw her kneeling in front of the toilet, her face in the toilet bowl. I took a few steps more and kneeled by her side, and caressed her back, whispering soothing words in her ear.I knew this was not going to help, but at least it would make her feel good, knowing that someone was by her side. When she was done, I cleaned her up instead of letting her do it on her own. I couldn’t share the pain

    Derek's POV.After spending a week in Paris and another in Switzerland, both Stacey and I returned to our pack because there were tones of work waiting for us. Though I knew the thing going on in Stacey's pack but had no idea about the pack of which I had become the Alpha. It was not that I had no idea about the pack members or people staying here. Since I was born and brought up here, I knew everyone here but not the internal information and the details."How will we handle the things? Of course! We just can't jump from here to there" Stacey said the same thing I thought. Thankfully, she was now over her vomiting phase in these two weeks. Now, she keeps demanding food, not that I was complaining about that part.It was just that I was enjoying this phase, and I didn't want to miss all these moments with my mate because of work."Well, I guess both the packs needed to be merged again just like before in your father's reign or before your wedding with your ex-mate.""I would have unde

They are best friends forever from the moment they started realizing the things around them, and since then, they have been inseparable. I missed Scarlett whenever I looked at them, but somehow I kept my feelings to myself, knowing Scarlett enjoyed her new life a lot. Richard and Dory never miss sending her new videos or photos. And as per them, she was still too bright to even after her powers were locked.The witch had told us that she could bind her powers forever. Whenever something would happen in her life that would trigger her brain mentally or physically, her spell would be broken. About her memory, until and unless anyone would tell her the truth, it was not going to return, which Dory and Richard had decided to say to her on her 18th birthday.“Mommy!!” I jerked my head hearing that word and found Vanessa, Adams, and Megan’s, adopted daughter. She was the daughter of their pack’s beta, but this

    Third Person's POV.'I wish we could just treat all the injured people at once or call help for more medical staff or something to help everyone.' Scarlett heard her mother speaking and thought of helping everyone with her powers. She knew that her mother would be mad at her after releasing that she used her power and also broke the promise, but at the time, she felt that was the right thing to do because there were so many injured people in the hospital and it hurts to see them in this state.She was mad at Aaron for being ruthless and cold-hearted.She was mad at herself for trusting that he wasn't as bad as her parents had told her.She quickly ran to the place where the central air conditioning was and sighed in relief, knowing what she had to do next. She opened her arms and closed her eyes to concentrate so that she could heal everyone by reaching my powers near everyone by fans and ductwork.At first, she didn't feel anything, but she started feeling weak after a minute or so.

    Stacey’s POV.I was trying hard not to take stress just like everyone wanted, but I couldn’t help myself because, just like Derek had said, the beast would lose free, and he would end up destroying everything. The same was happening, and no one could do a thing.It was not that we couldn’t defeat him by uniting together, but the problem was that he couldn’t be killed.I didn’t know what kind of experiment was done on him, but this was not less than a curse for us. And because of all this situation, Derek was working an extra hour. I was not complaining that he wasn’t spending time with me; he was. It was just that he was rarely getting time to take a rest for himself.Even now. I was rolling on the bed from here and there. I groaned and grabbed the pillow which Derek had used last night. I took a deep breath of his smell and relaxed for a moment. Immediately I winced as I felt a sharp pain in my abdomen.“What happened, Baby? Are you all right?” I asked, rubbing my belly. I tried to

    Derek’s POV.Six weeks later!!!.I started at my beautiful mate, who was sleeping peacefully. Just two to three weeks more, our pup and the next Alpha of the pack would be in our arms. But before that, she needed to rest as much as she could because, as per the doctor, she had complications in her pregnancy.And after learning that everyone in the family never failed to enlighten her mood and kept her away from the pack duties as much as we were trying our best not to take any stress because the problem of high blood pressure could create a lot of difficulties. In the doctor’s language, ‘high blood pressure is associated with a higher risk of many other complications, like preeclampsia. It puts you at a higher risk of having a baby well before your due date. It also increases your risk of having a small baby.’ This is called preterm delivery.She had waited for this moment for this long; if anything went wrong with the pup, I had no idea what would happen next. As per the pup, he wa
