'We need to get a divorce', I told Sean a week later. His mum was not cutting me any slack at all and I didn't hold it against her. It was my fault for thinking that I could eventually find happiness with Sean. What was I thinking? I wondered, that I could keep him childless forever? An Alpha, an only son who would want an heir to carry on his legacy?'What?' he responded shocked. 'Have I not been treating you right?' he asked, coming to me, holding both my hands and looking imploringly into my eyes. The look in his eyes broke my heart but I knew I was doing this for his own good. 'Answer me, Iris', he pleaded. 'Have I not kept all the promise I made you?'I shook my head, the look in my eyes pleading with him to understand. 'This is the best way, Sean', I said, resolutely. 'I cannot give you a pup and we both know it. I have tried and prayed to the Moon Goddess but it is already three years and who can blame your mother for getting anxious?' I asked. 'Every mother wants to play arou
I didn't want to be there and hear any more of their hurtful and humiliating words. So I turned to walk to my room.'And where are you going?' Stella asked.'I believe you need your privacy and that is what I am giving you', I replied, continuing on my way.'How dare you walk away while I am still speaking to you?' she asked, pushing me back as I wanted to walk past her. And gave me a stinging slap on my cheek that caused me to reel backwards. 'You barren, useless witch. You must have tried my son down with your witchcraft and that is why he is reluctant to leave you or get another worthy to be his Luna like Angela or even get a breeder to help you out'.My hands went to my cheek, almost immediately. I had not expected the slap. 'Mother, what have I done wrong?' I asked, trying to keep my temper in check. 'I also want a pup but I don't give pups. That is the work of the Moon Goddess!''You have the nerve to ask her what you have done wrong when you blatantly disrespected her just now?
'Angela came back for her career not for me', Sean continued, trying to convince me.'You claim you are over her', I replied thoughtfully, 'but is she over you?''Iris, she's been gone for close to six years and I have moved on. I am sure she must have had one or two relationships since then. So, we are over', he said, touching my jaw affectionately. 'Dont overthink it. If getting back with me is one of her agenda for coming back, then she is in for a rude shock!'His words comforted me but I still felt uneasy concerning my inability to give him pups. I knew I made everything cc Lear to him before we got married but even knowing that I might not ever give birth, I had still had this secret hope that I would eventually but close to six years and not one missed period and I was convinced that it was never going to be possible.'I don't mind if you got a breeder, Sean!' I told him.'Where is this coming from?' he asked. 'I thought we promised to remain true to each other?' he asked and l
Sean's POV I just cannot understand Iris these days or maybe I can. Mum is really picking in her and it is stressing her out. I feel like a heel for not protecting her better from my mum. I understand Mum too. I know what she has passed through raising me especially during my strange illness. The battle she had to face keeping the throne, engaging in battles of the mind and words with the elders till I miraculously became well. She had been scared of losing me and losing to the elders. Now she is anxious to see her grandchildren and be assured that my heir would succeed me when the time came.'What is this I hear about your wife looking for a breeder for you?' the voice penetrated my thoughts. I looked up into my mother's enraged face. What is it this time? I wondered.'Isn't that what you want?' I asked her with a shrug. 'She is being a good daughter - in - law, ensuring that you have the grandchildren you are so anxious to have!''You don't have to be sarcastic about it, Sean', she
‘Who are you?’ I howled as I sprang from the bed, and switched on the light in one fluid movement.‘I…I…’ the little figure on the bed stammered, clearly out of fright as she ought because I am as really furious.‘What are you doing here?’ I barked.‘I am Anna, your new breeder!’ she said, standing slowly and deliver brately from the bed and I saw she was stark naked. ‘My Luna has asked me to serve you well and I must obey her!’That was when I recalled the hunt for a breeder and sighed. The excitement I had felt when I thought I was going in to Iris was gone and though this she wolf was naked before me, I didn't feel moved. She got down from the bed and came towards me, snaking her hands to my neck and standing on tiptoe, placed her lips against mine.The next thing to do was to claim her lips and follow it through to it's inevitable conclusion but I just couldn't. I tried to feel so ethibg so that the effort Iris had put into this would not be in vain but I just couldn't. I pushed h
Iris’ POV I lay in one of the unoccupied rooms, visualizing Sean mating with Anna. I was not supposed to think about that, after all, I suggested and planned it but I just could not help feeling sad and regretful. If I had been able to give my husband a child, why would I drive him into the arms of another woman, even if the woman was one that I personally chose for him?I thought of the end result and I convinced myself that it was worth it. Then why were the tears streaming down my eyes? I thought before realizing that it was not actually my thought but my wolf was asking the question of me.‘If you are so sure it is a good solution to the problem and the end result will far outweigh the pain you are feeling, why the tears?’I sniffed and wiped my eyes with the back of my hands. ‘Something must have entered my eyes’, I replied.‘Stop deceiving yourself. This is what you wanted, the best thing to do is to accept it and it's resultant consequence with dignity’, my wolf said.‘Stop sp
Sean's POV All through the next day, I walked about and carried out my duties like a robot. My mind preoccupied. I could not help recalling the promise I had made my belove in bed last night and early this morning. We had mated all night. It had felt as though we were trying to imprint ourselves in each other as though that was going to be the last time we would love but that was bullshit of course. It can't ever be the last because I was planning greater nights for us once I am able to get myself to fulfill her wish of having a pup through her breeder.I went into the throne room to get some documents and I was going through them, my back to the door as I faced the window, when the door opened. I smiled without looking up. Iris was the only one who comes into the throne room without knocking especially when she wanted to seduce me and the sound of that reminded me of last night and I was filled with anticipation.She came up behind me and I smiled, pretending not to know she was the
Iris' POV Last night was one of the best night I have ever had. Our mating was out of this world. I wanted to hold on. It felt like I was going to lose him but what a ridiculous idea. He was just fulfilling my wishes of getting us pups through another she wolf, that was all. I decided to prepare something for Sean but there was a special ingredient I needed to add that was not in the store. I dressed up to go get it myself . I was close to where I knew I would get it when a voice stopped me. 'The almighty Luna herself running errands like the Omega she really is!' I already knew who the voice belonged to belonged to and decided to ignore her and continue on my way. A hand dragged me back to face her. 'Are you not the one I am talking to homewrecker?' she spat. I looked at her in astonishment. 'Who is the homewrecker here?' I asked. Luckily or unfortunately, the area was a quiet one and there. we're no onlookers. 'I am in my husband's house and you, an outsider will not allow h
I woke the next morning to find someone standing by my door with a bouquet of red roses. The roses hid their face but I could guess who the person was. No other person had this kind of aura. An aura of danger and passion. Why was I thinking that? I wondered. Pregnancy hormones must have started acting up.He shifted the roses from his face and smiled at me. 'Good morning gorgeous!' he said.'Good morning, Adrian', I replied, wondering how he got to this place as early as this and still looking clean and refreshed. Was it his speed or did he spend the night in the hotel? I felt self conscious all of a sudden, I had slept late into the morning and had not freshed on yet. I collected the bouquet and smelt the roses. 'Thank you for this!' I said, smiling thinly, not sure if I wanted him to be this nice to me. I was going to shut the door as I turned back to go in when I looked at his expectant face and thought, he had been good, why not invite him in?There was an instant when I debated t
Iris' POV Since Adrian had sniffed me and claimed my unborn child as his, my heart has been in turmoil. Why did it have to be his? Couldn't it have been someone else's? I wouldn't even mind if the person had been gay. Why was it Adrian's semen of all the semen in the sperm bank, that happened to be injected into me? I wished he hadn't been at the gathering and heard everything. It felt good though the way he had stood up for me back there but if he thought that it changed anything or that my pregnancy is a means for him to get back with me, he was seriously misled.As I walked away, I thought of going home to my parents but I felt they might be disappointed. They had believed that this time my marriage was the real thing. Telling them it had ended in disaster would only break their heart. Also, I didn't want any lecture and that was why instead of calling my family to pick me up or speaking to them through mind link, I changed my mind and decided to stay in a hotel till things cool
Alpha Adrian's POVI walked fast. I needed to catch up with Iris but how come she had covered so much ground in such a short while. Her speed was admirable. I still cannot get it out if my head that she was pregnant with my pups. How had it happened? I need to talk to her about it and perhaps now that she had rejected her mate and her divorce is in progress, I might have a chance with her.'Iris, wait up!' he called as soon as he got close enough for her to hear him.'Adrian, thank you for standing up for me there, but that is all there is to it. We owe each other nothing!' she said as I caught up with her.'I didn't come here because I wanted to disrupt your marriage', I said. 'Truly, I have kept tabs on you but it is just to be sure that Sean doesn't mistreat you, because I regretted and still regret how I treated you', I paused to allow my words sink in. 'I was happy that you were happy in your marriage and was getting all I couldn't give you when we were married, love, care attent
'You are not leaving this godforsaken castle of mine!' he said mimicking her words, his eyes glowing in his fury. 'If you think I am going to stay quiet and allow you leave this place so you can go live with your lover, you are sadly mistaken and if you think I will sign this document, you have been misled. I will not divorce you. You will never be free to remarry your ex husband', he vowed, his nose flaring up.'I have many of these prepared and my lawyer will visit you with another copy but so that you know how decided I am, we shall do this the traditional way', she said, placing her hand on her chest. 'I Iris Sylvester, Merryweather Anderson, reject you, Alpha Sean Anderson of the Golden Moon pack as my mate and Alpha!' she said.Alpha Sean's face registered shock and then he staggered back, clutching his chest, wincing. He straightened up with great difficulty. 'I reject your rejection!' he said, his chest heaving with an emotion that could only be fury.Iris, looked at him, shoo
Third Person's POV'How is this possible, Iris?' Alpha Conqueror said as he got to Iris' side with the speed of lightening. 'I smell my pup in you!'Iris looked shocked and stared at Adrian as though he had grown horns. 'What are you talking about?' she asked, brushing his hands off her.'I am saying, no matter how unbelievable it is to people that you are pregnant', he said. 'To me, the unbelievable part is that it is my pup growing inside of you!''You are insane!' she said, and happened to look at Madam Fairweather who smiled and nodded.Iris' shock increased. How could that be? Adrian never donated his semen to any bank but Fairweather's facial expression showed that he was right and it must, else how could he have smelt that she was pregnant and that the pup was his... except, Fairweather was manipulating it?'It is not possible', Alpha Sean said, laughing mockingly. 'She cannot get pregnant even if you pumped a tank full of semen into her!' he said and his words hurt Iris badly.
'I dragged him into a room close by and we mated. After that, I was so tired I slept ', she narrated. 'When I came to, I was in a warehouse somewhere outside the pack with some goons waiting to harass me. They tied me to the bed and we're ready to ... to.. but thank goodness, Alpha Merrick came and rescued me!'What she narrated got me furious and I knew who was responsible for her experiences but when it got to her rescuer, she spoke his name with so much gentleness that I smiled yet again. She was in love with Alpha Merrick, I decided.hadnt been sure before but I could tell that the feeling was mutual and I couldn't be happier. She deserved it.'Your so called doppelganger is someone I have suspected from the very first that Angela planted', I revealed. 'Her intention may have been to thwart my plans and she succeeded'.'But why would she want to do that when she wanted the Alpha for hers of?' Anna asked, her brows furrowing in thought.'She must have felt that it was better for her
Iris' POVAfter I got a call telling me that Anna had been found and her location sent to me, I hurried right away to go see her. I was overjoyed but hoped that it would not be a wild goose chase. 'Let it be Anna indeed, dear Moon Goddess!' I prayed. I had been scared that Angela had killed her.I got to the Bedrock Pack and asked to see the Alpha. I stated the reason for my visit and I was asked to wait at the reception till he was able to see me. Thankfully, it was not long.'Good afternoon, Luna Iris of the Golden Moon Pack, Princess of the Moon Ville Pack', he greeted. I looked up surprised. He was well informed. 'To what do I owe this august visit?' he asked.'I am looking for someone', I said, going straight to the point after acknowledging his greetings and offering my own. 'I heard she is in this pack and I wish to see her. It is really urgent!''Who might you be referring to?' he asked narrowing his eyes at me.'None other than Anna Smith', I said, looking him straight in the
'Crystal told me all about it', Fairweather admitted. 'It was indeed an accident and she - we are sorry for your loss!''Alpha Merrick, you are really a fast worker that you immediately put her in the family way even before your wedding!' Alpha Sean said, not sure if he was happy that Anna was engaged and fated to Alpha Merrick or not. Anna was supposed to be his breeder, for goodness sake and not a mate to a more powerful Alpha.'Oh, you're wrong, Alpha Sean', Alpha Merrick remarked. 'The baby was yours. It was the seed that you sow in her that night you both slept for the first time before she was viciously carted away to be murdered but for the Goddess' intervention!''My pup?' Alpha Sean whispered harshly. Was the surprises of this day never going to end? 'And what kind of accident deprived me of it?' he asked.'I was going for a walk, which Alpha Merrick didn't permit by the way, when I saw my look alike and was shocked be cause I never knew I had a twin', Anna answered. Alpha S
'You did what?' Alpha Sean asked, his eyes wide and nose flailed up in fury.'I just wanted you to know that it was not natural, though for it to have worked so well, you might have laboured a little attraction towards her', Fairweather said. 'My potions are potent but if you really found her repulsive, it would not have worked as well as it did. She didn't seem to encounter any problems!''Of course, he didn't until you snitched on me to him about Ben!' Angela accused.'I did no such thing. But why would you two time such a great man as he?' Fairweather asked. 'Your Ben cannot be compared to Alpha Sean in any way!''So of you helped her with a charm to make me find her irresistible, you did the same for your daughter Crystal!' Alpha Sean accused.'I did no such thing!' Fairweather repeated, more vehemently this time. 'What you feel for Crystal is natural. It was not spell - induced. I never meant for you to sleep with her, just to take the place of the real Anna until Angela could ge
