'You never told me you bribed the doctor with your body as well as with money, Roxy', Selina went straight to the point the instant that Roxy came to answer her summons.'I didn't think it was necessary. The doctor means nothing to me. I was just doing what I felt was necessary to keep the man I love from straying to another woman who is not worthy of him!''And you are?' Selina asked still unhappy with her recent escapades.'I thought you felt that I was', Roxy said defensively. 'otherwise, what's the essence of all we are planning and doing?''If you should be worthy of my son, you will have to get your acts together and stop sleeping around like a cheap whore!' Selina shouted at her. 'By the way, who is this nonentity they say is your boyfriend, with whom you have been having wild sex with?''I went to him once in fury and jealousy when Adrian refused to be with me even though he knew I was on heat. He left me and went in to Iris in the guise of punishing her. I was on heat for goo
Adrian went into their room after speaking with his mother and found Iris sleeping.He stood looking at her for a long time, thinking that she was indeed a lovely girl. His gaze shifted to her stomach and his heart twisted and he vowed he wasn't going to allow any harm befall his pup no matter the situation between him and Iris.He walked away from the door and went towards the bed Iris was lying in as though in a trance. He knew Iris was out and wouldn't wake easily due to the drugs she had been given.'I have given your Luna her medications.', the doctor said. 'She should not be disturbed. The drug will put her to a deep sleep, though a mild sedative because of her condition, it will still make her sleep deeply because of her injuries and the stress she's been through!'He touched her stomach, 'I'll let no harm befall you, my darling pup', he said as he kissed the stomach. He felt close to his pup and strangely drawn to Iris the more. He saw a lock that had escaped down her cheek a
'Mum, is this really you?' Roxy screeched with joy. 'You were gone for so long!''A lot happened to keep me away', Wendy replied, slumping in a couch. 'I was determined to get here no matter how late it may seem and that's why I am here!''I was beginning to wonder what was keeping you, dear friend', Selina intoned when she came into the room to join them. I tried to stop them marrying, I kept postponing it till I could postpone it no longer. But I believe you have a plausible explanation. Tell us your story and how we can remedy this situation!'Wendy smiled. 'I knew that by now, Adrian would be married to Iris. I had hoped you might have come up with a way to stop them but you did well by stalling them'. Her face became serious. 'I had set out into the fields to get that rate plant for the potion I told you about but I was caught unawares by some rogue wolves!''Rogue wolves?' Roxy and Selina exclaimed, simultaneously.'Yes!' She confirmed, nodding. 'I just got to the field where I
Iris dared not hope that the change in Adrian was as a result of a change in his feelings for her. If he would say the three magic words, she knew she would forget all that he had done to her in the past. But though she sensed a slight change in him, he did not act towards her like he lived her. He paid more attention to her stomach and she knew he was just interested in the pup and not in her!‘I better enjoy this reprieve while it lasts be ause after the birth of the pups, he might retrogress back to where they started. Not for the first time, she wondered what kind of future she would give her baby with a broken home and the hatred her inlaws except for Andrew of course had for her. Would such hatred be transfered.Two days later, she was resting on the bed, when Wendy, Roxy's mother came in to see her.‘Iris, how are you enjoying your marriage?’ she asked mockingly.‘The goddess be praised!’ she replied smiling. She knew why Wendy had asked the question and she was not going to gi
Adrian could not understand what the problem was with him but it was as though he was at war with himself. He realised that a part of him wanted to continue punishing Iris while the other part wanted to treat her with the love overflowing in his heart.But he kept maltreating her.Iris was surprised at the reverse in Adrian. I thought he had changed, he seems to have grown worse these days, she thought.'Adrian, you did promise me, you would think about my request to go home to my parents till the pup is born!' she asked him one day, after he eased out of her. The encounter had been very rough and inconsiderate of her feelings. She had been scared for her baby all through the time he kept thrusting savagely into her, as though in renewed punishment for something she had done,not unlike previously. She could take it before but not now that she had something to lose.'Are you going to force me to give you an answer now?' he asked furiously. 'In short, I have changed my mind. You are no
The screams had not gone unheard. Adrian had been having a meeting with his guards when he heard it. He rushed towards the sound to find both Iris and Roxy on the floor, unconscious and Wendy crying. There was blood everywhere!'Doctor, Adrian screamed. 'Come here quick!There was a flurry of activities as the ladies were laid down on the bed and the doctor started treatment immediately.'Do all you can to save my baby!' Adrian commanded. Tears were in his eyes. There was just so much blood and Iris was looking as pale as death. He could not afford to lose his baby and he realised with a pang that he did not want to lose Iris as well.Andrew rushed in. 'What's going on?' he asked when he saw the two females on the bed unconscious.When no one answered, he went to Adrian and shook his shoulders. Adrian was still in a state of shock. 'What happened, Adrian?'He was still shaking him when Alpha Sylvester and Millicent rushed into the room.'What happened here?' Alpha King, Sylvester bell
Millicent fastened a metallic chain on Wendy. 'I came prepared to take you down should you be responsible for my daughter's predicament. This metal chain will drain you of all your powers and make it impossible for you to do the disappearing acts for which you are known!''Ha, ha, ha, ha!' Wendy laughed. 'I told you when we met that the war between us was not over yet. I am glad that I took your daughter's happiness from her. She was guarding that pregnancy jealously. I killed three birds with just one stone!' she mocked. 'I had thought it was just one baby but it was actually three. Ha,ha,ha,ha. This is poetic justice!''You shall be so severely punished that you will beg for death but it shall be slow in coming. I shall make sure to kill you ever so slowly, you won't forget it in the afterlife!' Alpha Sylvester swore.'One more thing', the doctor strained his voice to be heard above all the noise. 'May I see the Iris' parents and husband in private, please?'Three of them followed h
'Yes, please have Selina Blake ushered into this place at once!' Alpha King Sylvester said.'Mum, I know that I lost the baby from the heavy shove Roxy gave me, telling me it didn't matter if I lost my baby since she was going to give another to Adrian and make him a better wife than I', Iris said very weakly. 'But Wendy gave me a kind of brew that made me feel fat worse. It may have contributed to aborting the pregnancy as well because I felt an unbearable pain after taking it. As he also did not call for the doctor when I asked her to!''Wendy will be taken care of, don't worry. She signed her own death warrant when she messed with you my beloved daughter!''You got here so fast, I did not know if the mind link I sent mother went through before I passed out!' Iris said.'It did and we rushed to this place as soon as we possibly could!' Millicent said kissing her frail hands. 'Now you must go to bed, the rest will be said outside so as not to disturb your rest. I can see you are drow
