Melissa’s POV

After what felt like forever, the car rolled to a stop in front of the mansion and before the driver could even park properly, I flung the door open and jumped out, ignoring my mother's sharp hiss behind me.

“Be careful, Melissa, you are fucking pregnant” she snapped, but I was already halfway to the door, my pulse racing with a strange urgency. I wanted to meet Alpha Axel badly.

As soon as I got in, I found the new Beta. He stood guard in the foyer, his posture stiffening as I approached. “Greetings, my Luna.” He said with a slight bow.

“Where's Alpha Axel?” I demanded, ignoring his greeting.

“In his study,” he answered, hesitating. “But, Luna, he gave strict orders not to be—”

I didn’t wait for him to finish. Turning on my heels, I marched towards the study, my heels clicking against the marble floor. When I reached the door, I knocked once.… just for the sake of formality, in case he was with any Alpha at the moment. I didn't want to appear

    Melissa's POV "Tell me, sweetheart, how did it go?" my mother asked as soon as I walked into my room. I didn’t reply. Instead, I moved to the bed and collapsed onto it. I was completely exhausted. "Did Axel tell you about the strange woman?" she pressed, her voice growing sharper. "The one claiming to be his mother?" But I only shook my head, too exhausted to form words. “I knew it.” She hissed. “Of course he wouldn't tell you.” I drew in a sharp breath. “What do you suggest I do, mom?” I asked quietly. “I really want to know about her. Judging from the way Axel's countenance changed when I asked about her, I knew there was more to their relationship.” “Me too.” She admitted truthfully. “I wanted to know too. He has never talked about her, nor have I seen or heard anything about her.” I was about to say something else, but at that moment, a sharp knock sounded at the door, cutting through the silence. I stared at my mother, “Are you expecting anyone?” But she shook her

    Axel's POV I was still in my study when my Beta entered and told me a man had been asking for Melissa—probably her ex-boyfriend, he said. Without hesitation, I sprang to my feet and headed for the gate to see who it was. But just as I reached for the door, it opened, and Melissa stepped inside. Her cheeks were flushed, her expression unreadable. Something had definitely happened. I needed no soothsayer to tell me. “Are you cheating on me?” I confronted her the moment she stepped inside. A startled gasp slipped from her lips—but just as quickly, she composed herself. “Ah, Axel,” she breathed as she placed her hand on her chest. “You scared the living hell out of me,” she said, forcing a smile to her face. “That doesn't answer my question, Melissa.” My voice tightened with frustration. “Are you cheating on me?” She let out a sharp scoff, anger flashing in her eyes. "What's wrong with you, Axel? How could you even ask me that?" “Melissa….” Her lips twisted in disbe

    Melissa's POV Oh goodness! I'm done for. What have we gotten ourselves into? Why did my mother have to lie that Damien was her son? Of all the lies that she could come up with, did it have to be this? And now Axel wants to make him his Gamma. Oh goodness! This is not going to end well. “What's wrong, Melissa?” He asked, his forehead knitted into a frown. “Uh…. Nothing actually.” I stuttered. It won't be a good idea if Damien is made the Gamma. That'll mean more trouble for me. How will I be able to cope with his presence in the pack house? I have to do something. I can't let this happen. “Don't you want your brother to be the Gamma or what?” Yeah, right. My brother. All thanks to my mother who couldn't come up with any other lie than this one. Not just any one, but a grave one. What would happen if Axel comes to know that Damien isn't my brother? The thought of what he'll do to us sent a chill down my spine. “Of…of course, not, my Alpha. You can make him your Gamma.”

    Lenora's POV “I'm sorry I came late.” I said to Zade, but he shushed me. “Don’t say that, baby girl. You came right in time, okay?” He pulled me into his arms and rested his head in the crook of my neck. We were currently sitting on the couch. “If you hadn't called me earlier, I'd have handed the throne over to Zariel and by now I'll be in deep regret because the woman he claimed to have in his custody wasn't you. It was a stranger. So trust me, you came right in time.” My lips curled into a soft smile. “You are welcome, Zade.” I didn't realise how much I've missed him until right now. I'm glad that everything has been settled and Zariel won't have any means to blackmail him into giving him the throne anymore. “Zade?” I called out, my voice breaking the comfortable silence. He hummed in response and I took that as a go-ahead order. “I'm sorry about your sister's death. I had no idea that Axel killed her just to get the necklace. You can reject me if you want, and I promise to

    Damien's POV I was standing on the balcony when my housekeeper approached, holding out my phone in her hands. “I'm sorry to disturb you sir, but you have a call.” She announced and I took my eyes away from the bikers racing on the field before turning to face her. “Thank you, Grace.” I smiled at her as I took the phone from her. I couldn't help the smile that spread across my face when I saw the caller. Melissa… the mother of my son. Why could she be calling me at such a time? Shouldn't she be resting by now? I didn't answer the call. I just let it ring to the end. Almost immediately, a text message popped on the screen. ‘Answer the phone, you fool’ The message read. I was about to respond to the text, but just then, her call came in. This time, I picked up the first ring. “Hi, Lissa, do you miss me already?” “In your wild dreams!” She hissed and the smile on my face deepened. “Then care to explain why you are calling me at such a time if you weren't missing me.” I teased a

Not when my body hurts like I'd been hit with a sledgehammer. How could Zade have fooled me this way? The motherfucker was ready to give me the throne. He was willing to give it to me. Just like I'd planned, I made him know that I won't let him meet his mate unless he gives me the throne. He was ready to do it, but at that point, that bitch had to spoil everything. I could vividly remember the smirk on Zade's face as he stared at me, telling me that I'll never sit on the throne no matter how much I tried. He'd told me that he knew that his mate wasn't with me, but had just been playing along just so he could get a hold on me. Fuck! I growled in anger as I punched the wall closer to me. I ignored the sizzling pain that shot through my body. After all, it was not compared to the other pain coming from my body. How did I not realise that it was

    Zade's POV"This Saturday," I told her, my fingers tracing idle patterns along her arm. "For Mrs Smith. For all of them that we lost in the fire. I'll finally lay them to rest." Her head rested on my chest, the soft rise and fall of her breath a soothing rhythm against my skin. We'd been talking for what felt like hours, mostly about the burial ceremony. This Saturday. I wanted to finally lay their souls to rest. “That's good, Zade,” She whispered quietly. "I'm glad that you have chosen a date already." Then silence settled over us, but it wasn't uncomfortable. It never was with her. I took her hand, her skin warm and soft against my touch, and gave it a gentle squeeze. Her eyes, those captivating pools of warmth, met mine. She flashed me a small smile. My gaze dropped to her lips, the way they parted slightly as she exhaled. And as if drawn by an invisible force, I leaned in and captured her lips in mine. Her breath hitched. I expected her to push me away, but she didn't

I took my eyes off the book that I've been reading and I turned to face her. “Yes, mother? What's wrong?” I inquired, my brows creasing into a frown. “Damien….” She trailed off and I urged her to continue. “He's here already and he's requesting to come up to your room.” My face paled as soon as I heard her words. That brute is here so soon? It isn't yet ten. Is he so eager to meet me that he couldn't wait until the time that Axel had chosen? My mind suddenly traveled to our last discussion. He had promised to come pretend to be my brother only if I let him make love to me. I didn't want to do it. I swear I never wanted to. But now I have no choice. If I don't do it, I am gonna die and so will my mother and I don't want that to happen. I don't need any soothsayer to tell me that Damien w

    Melissa's POV As much as I was happy with the fact that Beta Felix showed up at my door, I still wasn't happy that he heard our discussion. Heck, I should be happy that he was here and Damien wouldn't get what he wanted, but that was not the case. How long had Beta Felix had been standing at the door and had he been listening to our conversation without our knowledge? “Even if he has been listening to our conversation, he clearly wouldn't have heard when Damien asked you for sex. So don't panic.” My mother said to me through the mind link. She must have noticed the fears dancing in my eye. “But mother, do you think Beta Felix heard us?” “I have a strong feeling that he didn't. Don't worry about anything.” She sounded so sure and I couldn't help but feel that she was right. “Ah, Beta Felix,” I forced a smile to my face, while trying so hard to calm my racing heart. What are you doing here?” I added. What has he come to do in my room? He never comes here for heaven's sake!
