'That was a great suggestion you made Alpha King about the peace treaty', Alpha Adrian said, after the meeting was over, while looking with undisguised admiration at Alpha Sylvester.'Thank you, son - in - law', Alpha Sylvester smiled. ' How is your wife, Iris?''Oh, Iris is fine and taking great care of me', he said smiling happily.'Good to hear', Sylvester smiled. 'But are you taking good care of her as well?'Has Iris been talking to them? Adrian wondered. Because if she had, then she would not like the repercussions. 'How can I not take care of my lovely wife? Who else would I care for, if not her? She is the sunshine in my life!' he said solemnly.'Great!' Alpha Sylvester said. 'I feel the same way about her mother too, so, I understand what you are saying. But why hasn't she come for a visit yet?' he asked.'Yes, let her come for a visit!' Millicent said, looking intently at Adrian. She did not know why she felt uneasy about the young man. 'We miss her alot and want to see for
A month later, Iris found out she was pregnant. To find out how Adrian would feel about this, she had ignored all his maltreatment. Roxy now frequented the pack. It was almost as though she was living Ng with them. She had also caught her with Adrian on various occasions but had not said anything, believing that things would get back to the way it was between her and Adrian before their marriage.'You might be the Luna in name , I am the one really married to Adrian', Roxy gloated one day. 'You have no place here and soon, you will be driven away. We hat will you do then?' she taunted.Iris kept quiet, not responding to her taunts but continued doing what she was doing in the kitchen.'Cat got your tongue?' Roxy asked. 'No response? I can see that you have already accepted your fate of perpetual suffering in the hands of your so - called husband!'Iris continued cleaning the gas and kitchen cabinet, ignoring her. 'Aren't you the one I am speaking to?' Roxy asked pushing Iris, who hi
Adrian stared at his brother in amusement. 'Oh, that is how you want to play it, now isn't it?' he asked. 'You want to go and spill it to the Alpha King with the hope that he will dethrone me and make you the Alpha, so that you can have my wife, isn't that so?'By this time they had stopped fighting and we're breathing heavily from the exertion.Andrew looked at his brother and shook his head in exasperation. 'You are incurable!' he muttered. ' What a shining example of an Alpha you are. Do you think you deserve that title?', his voice was rising now in fury. 'I always looked up to you! Do you know that Iris is..''Andrew, that's okay', Iris said, looking hard at him and he recalled that he was not supposed to tell Adrian anything about her pregnancy just yet and kept quiet. 'Calm down! It will be alright!''That Iris is what?' Adrian prompted. 'Continue!'Andrew shook his head again. 'That Iris is your mate, your Luna and should be treated with love and respect. That was all I wanted
'Stop pretending!' Adrian said.'If you think lying as though you have fainted, will stop me from punishing you, then you better have a rethink!' he said raising his hand to hit her again but Iris remained unmoving. He turned her round but she remained still. He was about to leave the room when he saw blood dripping from her thighs. 'What the hell?' he thought and carried her back to the pack hospital that was in the same building, from where he had dragged her some hours previously.The doctors hurried to attend to her.'Why was there a lot of blood?' Alpha Adrian asked his personal physician when he came out after a couple of hours inside the ward with Iris.'Alpha Adrian, didn't you know your Luna was two months pregnant?' the doctor asked.'Well.. I er.. but why was there so much blood?' he asked shocked by the news. Why hadn't Iris told him she was pregnant?'We managed to save the pup this time', he said. 'but like I told your brother, she needs to take it easy, rest alot and ke
'That serves Andrew right for always supporting Iris against me!' she said to herself, as she walked into the room where Iris was receiving treatment.She looked at her sister looking so pale. 'My sister?' She isn't my sister. We are not related. Our fathers are different so are our mothers. I feel like I was just adopted with no blood relations to them!' she told herself.Iris stirred.'Oh, you're awake!' Roxy said.'Roxy, what do you want?' Iris asked weakly.'Is that any way to treat your own sister?' she asked sarcastically. ' I came to see how you are faring and all you can ask me is what I have come to do in your ward?''Please leave!' Iris said. 'I don't have the strength to argue with you'.'Then don't. Just listen!' Roxy commanded. 'Adrian will never accept the baby you have in you', she said smiling maliciously. 'He just left now. And do you know what he said before leaving?''I'm sure you will tell me!' Iris said with a hint of irony on her voice.'You bet!' Roxy smiled, ob
'I have smeared an anti-inflammatory cream on the bruise on your cheek, Luna Iris', the doctor said after checking up on her. 'The injection I just gave you contains a sedative, it performs a dual function of easing any pain and discomfort you might feel and luring you to sleep'.Iris nodded, she could not say anything. She was too overcome by the events unfolding daily in her life.'Thank you very much, Doctor ' A drew said.The doctor nodded and left, wondering what the problem was with Alpha Adrian. How could he make him attend to Roxy first before his own Luna?Andrew had come for him and as he was hurrying to see what had happened to their pregnant Luna, Adrian had stopped him.'Where are you going Doctor?' he asked. 'To attend to the Luna to avoid any danger to her or the baby!' he replied respectfully but purposefully.'Attend to Roxy first!' he ordered. 'She is seriously injured and can barely move!''Sorry, Alpha?' he said astonished not believing he had heard right.'Do you
'What a cozy little scene. My Luna holding hands intimately with my brother who is head over heels in love with her!' Adrian said, leaving the door he had been leaning on and coming at a leisurely pace into the room. 'What are you going to do, dear little wife, divorce me? Reject me? So that you can be together with your lover?''Adrian, you are despicable?' Andrew spat.Fearing this was going to lead to another fisticuff, Iris quickly intervened. 'Andrew, thank you for your support but right now, I'd like to be left alone with Adrian, if you don't mind'.'Are you sure about this?', he asked. 'Iris, he...''I am sure, Andrew', she said, looking at him imploringly. He opened his mouth to say something more but changed his mind and shutting his mouth, left the room.'What a touching scene', Alpha Adrian said. 'Is your lover planning on dethroning me so that he can take both my position as Alpha and my Luna?''What do you care?' she asked. 'Afterall, you have decided the pup in my womb
''Doctor', Adrian called, he was with Roxy. 'Are the rest results out?''That is the reason, I called you, Alpha', he said. 'The results show...''Wait a minute, doctor', Alpha Adrian said. 'I'd like for the result to be ready in front of the Luna!''Is that really a good idea?' the doctor asked, clearly uneasy and fidgety.'Are you questioning me?' Adrian asked.'No, my Alpha', he said hurriedly. 'Of course not! I wouldn't dare!''Good!' Adrian said, 'Now come let's go to my Luna! Roxy come along'.'Wouldn't miss it for the world!' she said and Adrian looked at her strangely. 'I mean, I'd want to know if my little sister has been faithful or if I was right to suspect her!' Roxy amended, quickly, thinking to herself that she'd better be careful. Adrian was a smart Alpha male.'Now, doctor', Adrian said, when they got to Iris' ward where she was trying to sleep but failing woefully because she was anxious for the test results to be ready so that she and Andrew vindicated.
