Amanda's POVSo many days had gone by, the outburst from the other day had not gone down totally. I was still sad about the fact that Timothy and Sarah were present on that day, they were just kids, I never wanted them to witness such a horrible scene. And the way Gama Daniel was irritated at the sight of my kids was nothing any mother wants to watch. It wasn't their fault that they were born through me.How could he hate innocent kids like that?I didn't want my kids to suffer the same fate as I did. I was not trying to force them down other people's throats, of course, I just wanted them to live a normal life without discrimination.We visited Gama's home again. Before we went there, I was worried, not that I was afraid of the couple, I was just no longer available for that kind of bullying and discrimination. I was already used to kindness and fair treatment in the real human world, I was used to sincere smiles and a warm welcome.Rick had persuaded me not to think too much about i
Amanda's POVReya stood up for me against Judy that day. After realizing my status, she went away with her crew, disappointed.Reya had been helpful, she was always early to get the kids to school and bring them after closing. It was a great relief, I had enough time to focus on business. She was like an angel sent to me.My kids were ready for school and I was ready to go to the store too. Reya arrived to pick them up at school, but I noticed that Timothy was sad about something, it was written all over him.“You're okay baby?” I asked him, adjusting his shirt.“Yes, mum. I'm fine” he responded.I did not want to delay them by asking further questions, I pecked them each and sent them off with Reya.I set out for my store too. It was another work day. Sales have been turning out well so far. I was driving joy from my work too. Although it felt like when I started from the beginning when I was in the real world. But it doesn't matter. The same way I built my brand and myself to the pi
Amanda's POVIn the real human world, there is something called destiny. It is the belief that everything that happens throughout a person's existence has been predestined. If that ideology was true, it must be the reason why my life was the way it was.I was not only born scentless, I was hated in every pack I went to. If I was a wolf with scent, maybe my mate would have recognized me, maybe I would not have to go away, maybe my life would have been a lot easier.But I could not question the blessing of the moon goddess.It just breaks my heart every time my kids had to be humiliated all because they were born through a scentless mother. They were innocent, it was not their fault. How could I make these people understand it?Those were the thoughts traveling around my mind. I felt guilty for causing them trouble as their mother, I was supposed to be their protector, but I was failing.After getting my work bag from the store, we locked up and went back home. I was done for the day, I
Amanda's POVIt is comforting when you truly connect with someone and everything is just well. The same pattern of events keeps reoccurring, everyone being hostile toward me and my kids. In all honesty, it was a heartbroken moment for me as a mother, but Rick never failed to give me strength through his love for me and all of his efforts to protein.He promised to make his parents stop harassing me, and he did fulfill that promise. He had promised to make sure that what happened at the kids school never repeated itself again. I had no reason to doubt him, he was a man of his words. I was at ease knowing that Rick would resolve everything.Rick instructed me to take the day off from the store and rest at home. I complied, I was tired anyway. It was a long boring day. I was home alone doing nothing, Rick had gone to work, and the kids were in school too.The ticktock of the clock finally made it to the school closing hour, then I stood up to prepare something that they could eat when th
Jackson's POVThe pressure to complete the rejection ceremony, and to proceed with my engagement to Dolcie kept coming from the Elders council of the wolfpack. After my warning to her she still went ahead to pressure the elders and they came after me too.I knew my decision to lay low and not respond to their notice would only infuriate them the more, but I needed private time alone to solve all the issues at hand. Moreso, I need a break from Dolcie's drama and I was not going to negotiate that with anyone. Not even the Elders.Once again, I was summoned by the elders council. All I ever heard them talk about was the engagement. I was tired of hearing about it, it was now annoying.“I might refuse to show up next time you invite me over, if you continue with this noise about engaging Dolcie” I said angrily.“You will soon understand why we are doing this. But first, you have to follow our order. You are an Alpha, why are you acting weak?”“Look, I understand everything. You're only th
Amanda's POVJudy's request felt like a challenge to me, and I was ready to win. I would prove to her and everyone that she was wrong and that my designs are not crap. It is not that I needed her approval, but I knew the implications of such comments on a brand.Couple with the fact that Jackson would be coming to the event.I was a bit worried and confused though. If Rick finds out, he would probably feel some way about it.And if the kids find out too, they might insist that they want to see their father. I was thrown into a dilemma.I ordered materials immediately and the latest designing equipment.It took hours and even two days to come up with an idea, I wanted to make an outstanding style. She was one woman with a beautiful body, she had the body of a model. If she was in the real world, fashion designers would have scouted her long ago, she would probably be a supermodel by now. At least it was better than how she was wasting away here.I sketched the style ideas I had , they
Jackson's POVNo matter where one goes, either in the real human world or here in the wolves world, it was always difficult to deal with others. Everyone was complicated in one way or the other. If I had refused to attend the hunting party, I would be offending Alpha Thor, it was not as if I was afraid of him, he was among the least of the people who could bother me. But, it was unnecessary to make enemies with someone over what could have been avoided.However, finding out that Amanda lives with Rick in the same pack where I had been invited to, was such a perfect avenue for me to get close to her and bring her back with me hopefully.It was impossible for me to continue to reject Alpha Thor's invitation after getting hold of the information.The day was finally here, I didn't want to make too much of my presence, I had requested just one guard. I was flushed with joy and anticipation. It was like when a man is going to see his bride for the first time. But a pang of disappointment a
Amanda's POVThis was life. You will continue to move from one pain to another. Who would have thought that my pain this time around would be from those who have done nothing but dote on me since the day we met?All men are the same.I have always heard people saying something like that when I was in the real human world. I thought about it as just a saying. I never knew that it was true.There I was, my body laying partially against the door, and my man having a hot session on top of another woman. I was in daze for what seemed like an infinite seconds, my jaw dropped, disappointment hovering around me and pain washed over me too.Rick, who left me standing outside to come and service his mate, stood up, coming towards me in shock. He never expected me to come to that room. I stood up too and adjusted myself.“It would be good if you don't come closer” I warned with a stern voice.Thinking back to when he left me outside, I was not wrong when I felt like he did not want to come with
