A bang on the door made Amelia jitter. She was deep in thought of how her life was going to be from them on. She had found her mate for goodness sake. She deserved to be happy.

"Amelia" whoever it was banged the door again, "Open this door, I need to see you"

Amelia shook her head. Was it wise to oep the door to her room at such a late hour. 

Who was it anyway?

Amelia stood up to check. She walked to the door and then closed one eye to peer though the doorhole through the other. 

"Maxwell" she sighed. 

She pressed on the door knobe and opened the door immediately. Her mate was here.

"Amelia. How are you doing?" He slurred his words. He looked half awake and yet deeply asleep. Was he drunk?

"Amelia, I've missed you so much"

"I've missed you too" she smiled. It was surprising to see how fast Maxwell had changed ever since the judgment from the alpha. He was acting like a different man––– a different werewolf actually.

"Come sit" she dragged him gently toward the bed. 

Amelia had made sure to clean her room, spray fresheners of sweetened flavor and possibly in hidden places. She wanted her room to smell nicely for him.

She made an effort to bath and appt makeup to her face too. All the other girls she had met always wore on makeup for their mate's, she deserved to do so too.

"Where did you do?"

She pulled him to the side with more pillows. It was a soft queen size bed covered in lavender colored bedsheets. It wasn't her favorite color but she had to make do with what she saw.

"What did you eat?" She cleared her throat, "did you have a drink?"

Maxwell lauged. He nodded his head with his half sleepy eyes. 

"Of course I drank. I visited the bar I knew you from. Is that so bad?"

If that comment was meant to upset her, Amelia vowed that it wouldnt. She was more than prepared to get more hateful comments from anyone. She had a mate now.

"It's alright.. I'm just so glad you enjoyed yourself. It's good to see that you had fun"

She pulled away from him but Maxwell caught her by the arm.

He staggered to her hand and then pulled her to him, "Where do you think you're going, my mate?"

Oh nice. Now, he had recognized she was his mate. That was going to make things easier.

"Yes, my love. I'm here. I want to hear water for you. You seem like you've had a lot to drink and at this point, I believe you need sleep."

Maxwell smacked his lips. He smiled again and then leaned closer to her face, "Alright, I'll be waiting, my beautiful mate"

Amelia didn't wait a second after. She couldn't wait to go as she pulled away as fast as she could. One push and she was already at the door frame of the restroom.

She turned on the heater and prepared a towel for him. 

"Take it easy girl, he's your mate afterall" she rubbed on her chest gently. It didn't help that his mouth oozed of booze either. For how long could she take it?

"Alright, it's ready" she turned to find Maxwell already staring at her. His eyes were already closing but she called his attention.

"Amelia, did anyone ever tell you that you are beautiful?"

She blushed. He wasn't so bad when he was drunk if he kept saying things like that.

"No"

She strolled to him, sat beside him and gently caressed his knees.

"But thank you for that wonderful compliment. It feels great hearing it from you especially since you always caused me pain."

Maxwell pouted. He apologized .

"You know I wanted to sound cool in front of my friends. I'm really sorry, I didn't mean to hurt you"

She nodded. "Thank you"

One look at the door to the bathroom and she was reminded of what she had initially planned to say, "Maxwell, your water is hot by the way. You should take your bath. A warm, hot and long bath. While that is being done, I'll go make you some hangover soup" 

Maxwell said nothing. He had a bright smile plastered on his face. 

"Did you hear me?" Amelia asked. Maxwell nooded, "I did but I don't want you calling me Maxwell, call me 'mate' or ',love' or anything romantic"

Amelia cringed.

When Maxwell start acting all lovey dovey? He pulled her hair a few nights ago, why was he acting like they had been lovers from the start?

"I'd need little time to adjust please, no offense. I am just not comfortable with all of this"

Maxwell nodded. "I understand, I'm sure I had been to harsh on you anyway"

She sighed. Thankfully, he understood that what he done had a large effect on her.

"It's alright. I'll leave to have your bath. Let me bring the hang over soup"

Maxwell nooded. His eyes followed her while she stood up and walked to the door.

He nipped on his lower lip when she was already heading out.

"I'll miss you. Be back soon. I need to talk to you about something" 

Amelia got out of his door quickly. His acting nice and super cute towards her made her feel awkward. Maybe it was because she had always seen in the light of a beast, she couldn't tell.

She shook her head profusely for some seconds before she eventually stopped.

"I should get used to it. Maxwell has a nice side to himself. I just couldn't see it."

She tried to convince herself on the way to the kitchen but it wasn't working.

"I'll just focus on the hang over soup then"

Working in a bar as a waitress had it's perks. She could make soups, she could mix concoctions for a hangover and she could make good Noodles as breakfast or maybe dinner. 

All those, she learnt from her work at the bar. Who knew it would come in handy while she had a mate?

The soup was hot enough and poured into a bowel when she decided it was time to take it to Maxwell. 

Maxwell also had a surprise for her too.

    Amelia closed the door behind her with one hand. It was also one of her special talents as a waitress. Many times, customers would order in the very important person room and she would be required to take them to the customers. Ok getting there, she needed to use one hand to open the door."Maxwell, I am back with your hangover soup" she said in a soft soothing voice. "I hope you like it" Silence struck the room without delay."Maxwell?" She called out but still, there was no response."Maxwell??!!" Her once gentle voice was gradually developing into a scream. "Maxwell, where are you?"Her anxiety began to increase when she dropped the food tray with it's soup inside, to search for Maxwell.Had he been so drunk he fell inside the bathroom and died?Her heart panicked. Her eyes widened in shock, what would the pack say?Was this the way Maxwell's family had said they would take him out of the mess of a mateship they were in?Amelia's head felt like it was about to spin when she saw

    Maxwell slumped backwards into the bed. He started to foam from the mouth or was it saliva? The alcohol must have been too much to handle. That or he was just acting."You bastard!" Amelia didn't fret. She bent forward and slapped him. He didn't think for a second that his unconsciousness would make him escape what she had in mind for him."You. Think. I'm. So. Easy. Cheap. Slut" with every pronunciation of the words, Amelia slapped him as hard as her hand could swing. Her full power was at work. Maxwell moaned with each swing she gave to him. It annoyed Amelia the most that he would dare try to moan while she was hitting him. She wanted to get up and hit him with something harder. Maybe a plank, if she could but she couldn't. She wouldn't dare. Her life still depended on him.He was her mate."You dumb bastard!" She yelled in frustration. Her anger was piling up. She needed to vent it somewhere else. "Maybe hitting him some more would help!"Amelia took a pillow from underneath hi

    The club seemed crowded enough. It had every kind of person Amelia could have thought she would see.The loud and funky ones were in the middle, directly under the shiny globe that rotated nicely. The ones that looked calm and chill sat proudly at the back. They were in the VIP section, seated with their ladies on their laps. They had expensive bottles in front of them, sipping slowly from their cups. They looked rugged. Too rugged for her. One of them even looked like he was related to Maxwell, all buffed and angry. Surely, he was a bully and she didn't want that. They were others that she noticed as she walked to the bar and took a seat. The bartender poured her a drink and she pulled the glass towards herself."This is on the house" he said with a smile. He looked mischievous, which should have sent a sign to Amelia but she ignored it."Hmmmm, it tastes good," she said after a sip. She lied. Amelia had only ever tasted alcohol once and it was when she first started walking as

    Amelia jerked off him. She blinked twice and asked him to repeat what he meant."Excuse me?!"The stranger moved closer to her with a smile."I didn't mean to piss you off, what I was trying to say was that you're so beautiful and I wouldn't want to lose you"Amelia calmed down immediately. She drew a deep breath and exhaled slowly. He wasn't a threat."I thought you were coming on to me as a threat" she backed away again. Mr M smiled. He still a advanced towards her. Step by step, he took her by the shoulder. His touch was gently and soft. Amelia nearly melted."I like you Amelia, I think you're such a beautiful girl. The one I've been looking for. How about you and I talk inside?"Amelia's eyes became drowsy. The alcohol kicked in. She was feeling lightheaded and thirsty. Her eyes turned red."Is this your first time drinking?"Mr M leaned into her ear. She nodded.He giggled, "I can see it. You're not a bad girl"His laugh made Amelia suddenly get upset."Excuse me?!" She slapped hi

    Amelia's heart stood still. Was it a prank he had just pulled on her or was he really gone? She got up to check.Amelia walked out of the room, her phone in her hand and the keys of the room in her pocket. She thought it was his house and that maybe he went to prepare her a meal but that wasn't it.It was infact a guest house. It looked like someone's house because that was the way the designer had meant for it to be."Good morning ma'am, how can I help you?"Amelia stood there speechless. She drew in her breath three times before she was finally able to talk."I'm looking for a man. He's this tall. He's slim and light skinned. He had a weird but funny smile. He came from the room I was in. Have you seen him? Did he leave his contact?"The receptionist looked at Amelia blankly. She later said she had no idea what Amelia was talking about and had not seen a man in that room.Amelia's jaw dropped. She stood there, frozen and wide eyed."You're the only customer we've had here in three

    Amelia flared her nostrils."Answer me old man. What did you say was coming to me?"Maxwell's father said nothing. He only smiled."I hope one day, you'd have the guts to talk back to me in this manner when things turn in my favor"Amelia sneered, "you and your deadbeat of a son won't be getting so lucky any time soon" . She smiled.The old man nodded his head. He raised his hand to clap for her a few times and then walked out of the room."Enjoy"His leaving came with sadness to Amelia. She didn't mean to be rude and had no idea what had come over her but all she knew is that she wanted to make up a point.She was the daughter of great wolves. She didn't deserve to be treated like she was an outcast or something anyone could trample on.She wanted to stand up for herself.Amelia laid still on her bed, her face was looking at the ceiling while her hands were to her side."I'll be my own protector, that is what father and mother would have wanted anyway"With those thoughts, she closed

    Maxwell drew out his belt while he stood open legged in front of Amelia.Amelia backed away but she ended up hitting her back on the wall. There was no place to run to. Maxwell was very calculative. He had cornered her into the wall and was about to have her there.Or maybe that was what she was thinking.That wasn't his plan.Maxwell had a big smile plastered on his face. He took off the buckle of his belt and drag it out of it's hoop. "It's time to experience what you wanted at the club"Did he mean sex?"Maxwell, I'm not ready! I don't want to have sex with you!" Amelia screamed.It sounded ridiculous but yes, she was not ready to have sex with her mate. The mate she had been saving her virginity for, since she was a teenager. She was not even ready to loose it, she just did that out of pressure and frankly, she was beginning to regret it.Maxwell ignored her. He went ahead to pull his shorts down. His underwear was a dark color with a shade of light blue. It aligned with his per

    Maxwell's father asked Amelia to wash his feet. He asked her to clean the entire house with a tooth brush and also sent all the maids home for a week.Amelia cried and begged but work kept coming. It was like she never had the freedom she experienced before. That night of freedom was more of a punishment to her."When you're done, I want you to cut the grasses outside. Don't use the lawnmower, use your hands. I prefer them hand plucked."He smacked her on the back as he passed by. His touch was more aggressive than a blow. She wished he had just used his mouth.After she was done hand picking the grasses at his courtyard, Maxwell went on to give her more treacherous jobs to do. Each one, more tiring and stressful than the previous.By noon, Amelia collapsed totally on top of her bed.She had thought that was going to be the end when someone knocked on her door.She pressed her eyes tightly, not moving an inch under her blanket, hoping whoever it was would get the memo and leave but he

    Amelia's belly has grown twice in size since the last time she had seen the doctor. She was almost due and had to call him in for a checkup again. "You'll be having a girl this time", the doctor touched on her stomach. He felt a kick and raised his head to smile at her, "Your baby is doing great too".Alex, who stood by her with her hands interlock in his, stepped forward. "Is there anything we need to do to prepare for the coming of the baby?".The doctor shook his head. Alex was not satisfied. "Any scan? Any treatment? Any test for her at all?".The doctor still shook his head, "Your baby is fine and she will be fine too" he pointed to Amelia.Amelia saw the nervousness in his eyes. She held his hand tightly and reassured him again, "Trust me. I'll be fine. This isn't my first rodeo you know". She flashed him her white teeth.That calmed Alex. He leaned in for a kiss and went back to standing by her side.The check up was over and they both got ready to leave. Alex sat in front wi

    Amelia was led only to Alpha Alex's chambers. He had her wear a blindfold and carefully guided her steps to the bed."Sit".Gently, she sat on the edge of the bed, waiting for what would happen next. Her heart was beating profusely while she swiped her tongue on her lips to wet them."How did you know about all of this?" Amelia tried to start a conversation. "I never left you. I had you in my mind the whole time and I am never going to leave". He bent a knee and dipped his hand into his pocket."Open your eyes, Amelia", he said to her while he positioned well. "I want you to be my wife again. My love for you has never left. Let us renew our vows".Amelia took off her blindfold to find the love of her life kneeling before her. Those eyes were sincere and kind. She held her breath and covered her mouth. "What are you doing?""I'm asking you to be my mate again. Love me like I was dying. Please, marry me".Amelia swallowed down. Her cheeks turned red. "You're making me smile"."Yes, a

    Amelia watched all that was happening with an open mouth. All her sadness had seeped out of her as she was now surprised."We are giving you one last chance, Sandra. You better confess".Sandra hissed many times as she felt a sting in her side. It was getting worse. Her flesh was now half gone. "Give me a shot. I'm in pain!".A nurse moved to her. She wanted to administer something but the alpha stopped her. He looked into Sandra's eyes, "Confess or you will die alone and before all of us".Tears rolled down Sandra's eyes. She looked over at Amelia, "This is all because of you"."You wouldn't let me have the man of my dreams".Alex blocked off her view. "You make it seem like she had been the one who forced you to have the kind of life you wanted. Do you not know I have been watching you?".He snapped his finger and the guard she had been with approached them."Say hello to Cornell. He is my cousin but I made sure you didn't know about him. You and Cornell made love last night. Didn

    Amelia ran through the woods as the sun began to rise. She had been running restlessly, searching for a clue of who could have taken her baby but found no success.Her breath was getting deeper. She stopped to draw in a new one. "Where could her baby be?".She thought of going back to Maxwell. He might have had a clue, but she was not so sure. She wanted to ask for help from Alex. He would have been concerned in times like this but she could not also go back to him. Her oath still held her back. Filled with frustration and anger, Amelia sat by a river bank and began to cry."How about you go meet the Alpha? He might be able to help after all." " her wolf whispered to her. Amelia stopped to think, "But we aren't allowed to meet with him"."You're not allowed to meet as lovers or mate but that shouldn't stop you from meeting and asking for help. What if he could be the only one to help?".Her wolf made a valuable point to her. Amelia sprung up on her feet and began to make her way to A

    Alex sat comfortably on his bed. He heard a knock on the door and walked over to open it. "Have you gotten it?", He said as he unlocked the door and pulled it open. The rogue walked through with a baby in its hands. He still had his dark cloak on which covered his face.He stopped by a chair and then handed the sleeping child to Alex."I found what you had wanted. You will keep to your part of the deal right?"."Of course. You have helped me and I will do as you please". He smiled, "However, do you still wish to go on with your revenge?"."I came to help you out because of the genuine love I saw you have for your mate, I bargained for you to help my people while I sacrificed myself"."I know but must you take your life also?" Alex took the baby from his hand. The child was fast asleep, making light snores as he cradled up on Alex's broad chest."I have to". He turned around and walked to the door. He stopped when he placed his hands on the doorknob. "I am taking you as a man of you

    Sandra's spy made his way to her room. He was known for being stealthy and that was the reason she had picked him as hers in the first place."What do you find?" she asked as soon as she saw him. His eyes met hers underneath his mask. She could see those but not his lips. No one had ever seen his lips."Alpha Alex had someone come into his chambers when you were not around".He mumbled underneath the mask.Sandra sprang up on her feet. "Did you find out who it was and what they brought to him?"."No".She drew in a deep breath and walked to him. "What's the use of having a spy like you if you can not get simple things done?".Her spy stood still. He apologized after he was scolded.Sandra groaned. "I don't take 'sorries', you have to compensate for this somehow. She moved closer to him. His scent became more prominent. She drew in all of it."How can I please you, Luna?".She watched him say. Her eyes looked at where she had expected his lips to be and then gradually, her eyes fell t

    Amelia felt rage coursing through her veins. She swallowed hard and tightened her grip on the rope she had on her wrist."Where is my son?"."He's fine. What did you hear?", She could see Maxwell's fingertips shaking. His chin shivered. He moved a step backward. Blood dripping from her mouth and nose made her look ferocious. The blueness in her eyes had turned dark. Her entire eye socket has turned back.Her fangs sprung forth and her tongue lengthened. Her claws grew in size and darkened. They turned black.She raised her head up and slowly looked into his eyes as she gritted her voice, "I said.. where is my son?".Maxwell felt the hair on the back of his neck stand. Suddenly, he felt fear tie a knot in his stomach. He had never seen Amelia, the weakling, this way. She looked like she could kill him with those eyes.He stepped back, dropped the whip he had in his hand, and ran away.His wolf had been wounded and he had no time to recover. If he dared to attack her, he might not win.

    Amelia hid herself behind a tree as she tried to control her breath. It was getting dark and she had been on the run for hours. Her eyes felt weary and her body was tired. She didn't have anywhere to go but she had to keep moving."He would never forgive me for this". She squatted down. She heaved a sigh and closed her eyes."Think Amelia. Where can you go and how can you get your child back?" Amelia slapped her head lightly.She heard her footsteps coming behind her. Her eyes clicked open. Someone was nearby. She prayed to the moon goddess, "Not today. Not today please. Save me".But the moon goddess didn't listen. Something grabbed her by the neck and pulled her backward."You thought you could run away from me, didn't you?"He shook her and pulled her hair. "You didn't think I would get back at you for this, did you?"His pull was hurting her, he was almost ripping her hair out of her head."Maxwell you're hurting me!" He pulled harder. Maxwell dragged her by the hair until he

    The night had covered and Alex had changed into a darker outfit. He had to blend with the night if he didn't want to be spotted.He marched into the night and shifted his form. He needed to be stealthy and swift so he moved with speed but made no noise.The wind blew in his face but his vision was unwavering. His eyes were as sharp as day. He perched on a tree next to the mirror cave, waiting to see what was going to happen."Who could it be?".He waited for minutes until finally, something crept into the cave. He saw it. Dark, thin, and sneaky. He could not make out a face because of the black cloak it wore but he knew for sure that it was not a member of his pack."I have to find out who it is?"It seemed like a trap but a trap worth getting into if he could get Amelia back was one he was willing to risk himself in. He jumped down.Slowly and quietly, he shifted forms back to his human self and straightened his back. Alex looked around for any living thing in the area and when he sa
