I was coming back from a visit away from my pack, this time, not with the intention to make Millicent jealous, I was done with that but on some official business when I was attacked.'He is Christopher!' someone said. 'I told you he was still alive!'I was going to tell them they had it all wrong because Alpha Christopher was dead and I was his brother Alpha Sylvester but before I knew what was happening, I was being attacked. I realised too late what their intent was. But for my fast reflexes, I do not know what would have happened. I killed them. There were four of them. From their looks, they were rogues. I managed to get back to my pack without any further mishaps but I was injured and losing blood.As I staggered in, the first person I saw was Millicent. 'Sylvester, what happened?' she asked, wide eye.'Nothing!' I said and staggering upstairs to my room. She looked after me for a little while and rushed after me, held me on the arm and helped me up the remaining stairs toy roo
Millicent's POV I was happy that Sylvester had not actually been going to mate other females. I had been jealous and distressed for no just cause. I wanted to be angry with him but could not for joy.But your injuries...' I tried to warn him to take it easy as he drew me into the bed beside him.'No buts! And to hell with the injury!' he said carelessly as he started kissing me.'Thank you, Moon Goddess, for this second chance at happiness', I prayed silently to the Luna Goddess.Sylvester was kissing me as though he was going out of his mind and I did not blame him because I was too but I still wanted him to be alright.'Stop worrying', he said. 'I am an Alpha and I can self - heal faster than other werewolves. Coupled with the fact that you are a healer and my mate. Mating with you will not endanger me but serve to heal me faster!' he said, and I saw the logic in his words and had to agree with him.I threw myself into the kissing, murmuring lustfully, 'At this rate, we'll be teari
'Push!' the midwife ordered.'Arhhh!' Wendy said as she bore down.'You'll have to do better than that!' the midwife admonished her. 'Do you want your baby to be a still birth? Push harder!'Taking a deep breath, and thinking that she didn't know giving back birth would be as difficult for her as it was, she bore down with all her strength. 'Arhhhhhh!' And the baby's head broke forth. Then the midwife with her hands in a glove, pulled the head of the baby till the baby slipped out.'It's a lovely girl!' the midwife said. 'So beautiful! The Dad must have been very goodlooking'.Wendy hissed in disappointment. She had hoped her baby was going to be a boy so that he could get a position in his father's kingdom but still, her daughter was a hybrid and the midwife was right, she was beautiful and looked so much like her father.'I can still make use of her to get my vengeance', she thought and use her blood to fortify my powers'.'Have you thought of a name for her?' midwife asked.'Roxy'
'Christopher Merryweather?' she tasted the name in her lips. 'My father?'Wendy nodded, looking at her daughter and affirming to herself yet again that she looked so much like Christopher.'You said, he discarded you, kicked you aside for another', observed the twelve year old Roxy. 'Didn't you tell him about your pregnancy or did he know about it and yet kicked you out?' Wendy had not considered that angle. Though she was furious with Christopher, she didn't want Roxy hating her father. There was not much use for that. She should direct her hatred at Millicent and her pups.'He did not know I was pregnant but the woman he chose me over knew and seduced him, poisoning his mind against me before I could tell him', she said, shedding a few years and Roxy went to her mother to console and wipe her tears. 'She lied to your father that she had caught me on several occasions with other men. She told him that was a common practice amongst witches but that she could never do such a thing to
While all these was going on, the Moon Ville Pack was rejoicing over the recent addition to their Alpha's family. Millicent gave birth to another set of twins, this time, a male and a female.Alpha Sylvester was so happy. He felt that his joy was complete to overflowing proportion.'Millicent, darling', he called, 'What name will you give our pups?'Smiling, Millicent asked, 'Wouldn't you rather name them?''You have brought me so much joy', Alpha Sylvester said smiling happily. 'Do the honours'.'If you insist', Millicent conceded. 'Ares for the boy and Iris for the girl'.'Such wonderful and distinguished names', Sylvester said. 'Ares Sylvester Merryweather and Iris Sylvester Merryweather, I welcome you into the world. May your years be long!'Alpha Sylvester threw a great celebration and all the Alphas came to honour his invitation. It was a grand affair.'Come, Devon, Kevin', Alpha Sylvester called. 'Come see your baby brother and sister'.Devin and Kevin rushed to the bed where M
Lilibeth, the witch who banished Wendy to the Netherlands surprised Millicent with a visit.'Hello, Lilibeth, how are you doing?' Millicent welcomed her warmly with a hug wondering the reason for her visit. Was she coming to confirm her premonitions? Also, she preferred referring to her as Lilibeth because she felt it sounded more dignified than her nick name Sashi. 'To what do we owe this august visit?' she asked as she waved her to a seat and took hers opposite Lilibeth.'Millicent O'Brien Merryweather ', Lilibeth called. 'Hope I meet you well?'Millicent nodded with a bright puzzled smile wondering why Lilibeth was being so formal. She could not remember the last time she used the name O'Brien. She had simplified it for herself and others by abbreviating O'Brien Harry to O'Hara.'I have come for my payment', Lilibeth stated. 'You will recall that I had promised to come for it when the time was right.So that was it, Millicent thought, wondering what was right this time and was not
The nanny rushed in with the bottle of water, and Millicent grabbed it from her and forcing the quivering mouth of her daughter open, she kept pouring water into it, hoping it would cool her from the inside. She poured some on her body but her body temperature caused it to dry so quickly, it was unbelievable and Millicent got really scared. 'Bring a bowl of water', she ordered.The bowl was brought and Millicent put her daughter inside but had to remove her from the water after a while because the water became boiling hot!'Stop this manipulation, Lilibeth, this instant or I shall get you arrested and kept in the dungeon', Millicent threatened. 'Remember I am the Luna and you are here in my territory. Nothing must happen to my daughter!''I shall just get away from your dungeon. Do you think you can keep me captive?' Lilibeth asked, smiling smugly.Millicent knew that Lilibeth would just disappear to any place of her choice.'Why are you bring so stubborn?' Lilibeth asked. 'Just hand
The search went on but Lilibeth could not be found. It was as though she had disappeared into thin air.Going through all that had happened in the past to bring about this predicament, Millicent was sure there were lots of things she would have done differently, chief amongst them was the war that claimed Christopher's life in the first instance. 'Why does my daughter have to pay for my crimes?' she thought unconsolably.'Take me instead and spare my daughter, she is innocent!' Millicent recalled pleading with Lilibeth but she had laughed.'If you were the price I wanted, I could have taken you years ago!''Why must Iris pay for my mistakes?' Millicent asked. 'She is a pure soul. Innocent of all these!''Exactly!' Lilibeth said. 'I am taking her because she is still innocent and her heart is pure, untainted!''Why her?' Millicent asked, very suspicious all of a sudden. Why did Lilibeth need an untainted she - wolf of double Alpha blood? 'What do you want with her or more accurately, w
