Millicent's POV After Christopher's demise, I went into shock, I'll stare off into space, for hours and this went on for days.Samantha tried to reach me, speaking and telling me lots of things but I was not interested. I was like a zombie, not really aware of my surroundings.'Millicent', she would say, trying to penetrate my consciousness. 'Eat something, please, for your health. I prepared this myself, specially for you. It's your favourite'. She held my hand, squeezing, 'The medicine the doctor has been giving you requires that you eat!' she added. 'You still have those who need and love you around. You are the only family I have left. Did you ask me back here so I can grieve once more if I lose you?'Suddenly, she let go off my hands. And I heard a deeper voice. 'You should know Samantha, that Millicent thinks that if she punished herself long enough, Christopher will be brought back to life', it was Sylvester. 'She knows she is to blame for all this. And no starving nor pret
Sylvester's POV I was getting really worried, Millicent seemed to have gone off into space. Don't misunderstand me, she was physically present, but everyone could see she was not really there. I'd had a series of meetings with the chief and elders who had insisted on seeing Millicent and I had kept putting them off, telling them, she was not up to it yet.'When will she be up to it then?', the chief asked. 'We are all pained by the loss of Christopher. She is acting as though she is the most affected!''But she is!' I snapped, 'He was her fated mate and the one she seemed determined to chose over me', I paused, 'Christopher had even claimed her before his demise!''Oh, is that so?' one of the elders intoned, pulling on his beared, his face creased in thought.'If that's the case, then she needs a little more time but this cannot linger forever. We have to speak to both of you!' the chief emphasized, 'The fate of the pack depends on it'.'What you want to say cannot be said to just me
When we got to the throne room, the elders were already seated and deliberating but our entrance caused silence to descend on the group and I could see some nod in approval.'A good day to you, Chief, Elders of council', Millicent greeted curtsying.They nodded in acknowledgment.'Please, be seated the both of you. The matter we are here to deliberate on has lingered', the Chief began. 'We cannot afford to waste anymore time on it'.Millicent sat on the chair closest to her and I sat on my armchair.'Alright, Chief and Elders, we are here now, you can go ahead and tell us what you deemed it necessary to bring to our awareness!' I said without preambles.'Thank you, Alpha Sylvester', he said. 'Millcent, Alpha Sylvester introduced you to us as his mate and his soon to be Luna', he paused to take in air. 'It's been awhile now and we want to know if both of you have decided to make it official!''I do not think that will be possible!' Millicent said.'I hope you do not mean that,' an el
Third Person POVMillicent went into the Royal morgue and tried everything that came to mind, including transfusing the mate bond into Christopher's body but nothing seemed to be working, that was the end of the first day.On the second day, she became desperate. She cut herself and allowed her blood to drop into his mouth, but still nothing happened.She had heard that the tears of a fated mate could do wonders, she shed it in drums but Christopher was as stiff as before. As the second day drew to an end, she became inconsolable and started praying to the moon goddess.'Moon Goddess, I had promised not to believe in you ever again if anything should happen to Christopher but now, I have come to you for assistance. I implore you, bring Christopher back to me. I am nothing without him. He is my everything. You mated me to him after all. You gave us this incredible Mate Bond and now I can bear to be with no other, not even his brother!'She sobbed harder when she remembered that in a f
Everyone looked at the stranger as she walked up to Alpha Sylvester.'You look so much like him but you are not he. Take me to see him, immediately. Time is of the essence!'Daniel, Alpha Sylvester's Beta came between Sylvester and the stranger, barring her way. 'Watch your speech. He is the Alpha!' Sylvester raised his hands to stop Daniel and flipped his hand to the side as a sign for Daniel to step away.'Why are you here?' Sylvester asked, then answered his own question. 'Right! To see Christopher, but why? How did you know him?''All these questions can come later. I have already been delayed as I crossed the border and I need to get to him immediately before it becomes too late to do anything!.'Christopher is already dead, I must tell you. What reason could you possibly have to see him?' Millicent asked, her curiosity aroused.Wendy looked at her and smiled. 'I knew he was dead even before his men at the borders revealed it to me. I would have been here sooner had I not travel
'Where am I?' Christopher asked, looking around at the faces gathered round him. 'And who am I?'This second question was what threw everyone. Did he just ask the question they heard him ask?They looked at the witch who was just getting up to her feet from her faint.'What have you done?' Alpha Sylvester asked. 'He does not know who he is!''I forgot to warn you that the side effect was amnesia', Wendy said. 'It is going to be for a short while though and then he will recover his memory fully'.'How long is this 'amnesia', supposed to last?' Sylvester asked.'It depends on each individual. For some people it takes a fortnight, some a month, others a year, you will just have to be patient and see how long he takes to recover his memory fully'.'Is there an antidote for this 'amnesia'? Chief asked. 'You know, like a potion?''No. But if he has a reason for living. If there's something he desired so much before dying, then his subconscious will drive him to recover his memory faster fo
Millicent's POVThings did not get any better in terms of my relationship with Christopher. He treated me like a polite stranger would another and it was slowly killing me. Especially when he would smile sweetly at Wendy and give some little affectionate touches.Once my eyes made contact with Sylvester and I could see the pity in his eyes. It was just too much, I ran out of the room to my own and slammed the door.Samantha was on my heels. 'Millicent pull yourself together! If your mate bond is as strong as you claimed, he will soon remember you and come crawling back into your arms and your bed!' she said, hoping to bring a smile to my lips but I was not so sure anymore.'Wendy is weaving her magic around him and he seem to want to be with only her. I can't wait to see her gone from the Moon Ville Pack and out of our lives permanently!' I exclaimed.'I wish I could say that she is just helping him recover', Samantha said slowly. 'but I have seen the way she looks at him and from the
I got to the home of Raph and Mildred and I found Raph with a young beautiful girl.'Millicent, you're here!' he said, hugging me. 'I didn't think you'd come this soon after receiving the letter!''Nothing could keep me away. Where is Mildred?' I asked, looking into the inner room.'She is out in the fields picking fruits. I'm surprised you did not see her on your way here', Raph said.'Aren't you going to introduce me to your friend?' I asked.'Of course I was going to as soon as you settled down', Raph said happily. 'This is Minnie, my fated mate'.'You don't say!' I shouted happily, hugging him and the beautiful girl by his side, one hand on each of their shoulders. They both looked so happy and I was happy for them.'Raph, where is mum Cara?' I asked, surprised that she was not there. 'She is practicing her profession. You know she is a mid - wife?' he asked.I nodded.'Well, she went to deliver a female of her pup', he said. 'If all goes well and I pray it does, she should be bac
