Amanda's POVSometimes, good things come from the wrong places. And because of this, you would be left dumbfounded. You would not know whether to accept it or not. Just like right now, the affection I was getting, which I could not deny liking it, was coming from a seemingly wrong candidate.When Jackson pulled me away to the secluded area, checking my body to see if I was injured, although he was being nice, I still could not help but reject his help.“I am okay. You need not worry, go back to join the other men” I said.He remained stubborn as he would always be. It was very unnecessary, I do not need his care. I wished he would stop being dramatic too.“You always don't want anything, rejecting me like this won't work. I will do the needful. It's great that you came back alive after fighting with the rogues. But I have to ensure there is no injury, okay?” At that moment, it was like a father and daughter moment, like I was the daughter and I had just returned from the playground, a
Amanda's POVYou never know how good a thing is until you try it. Sometimes, even a forbidden fruit could taste great. Also, you could be going down the wrong path, but still find yourself enjoying every bit of the journey to hell. Just like now. This very moment.As Jackson's hand slided down my thighs, I felt a slow ticklish sensation burning through my body. He went straight in between my thighs, using his hands to tease me, leaving to gasp for air as I clung on to his shoulder. While trying to hold back my faint moan in order to avoid calling attention, I struggled between suffocation and unforgettable pleasure until he drove me to climax.I looked away in embarrassment, I was overwhelmed with guilt, and I was shy too. Who would have thought that I would be getting pleasurably giddy with the same man I have been frustrating for so long in the bid to send him away. It was a sudden realization that made me ask if I had truly wanted him to go away from me all along. Life is whatever
Amanda's POVIf a person has faith in themselves, nothing can limit how far they can go. All you have to do is to ignore your pain, distraction and position.Even if each day keeps getting worse than the previous day, I will not cease to beg the moon goddess to at least give me one day where I will not encounter any stubborn enemy.We were at the point where everyone had to see who was better off between Dolce and I. She kept blabbing about how she would deal with me if she was given the chance. It will either happen right this moment or never, there might not be another and they will still leave with the perception that she could defeat me.So I agree with the suggestion when it was mentioned that we should both go to the training ground.Today was the first time I was involved in a physical fight. And it was with a bunch of rogues. Even though they did not use all of their power on me, I was still confident I could fight for myself.On the same day, I would be fighting with Dolcie t
Rick's POVSecrets and conspiracies live in the most uptight environment. On the surface, things are moving well, there is friendship and loyalty between allies. But in reality, a lot of unknown atrocities and betrayal is taking place behind the scenes.Just like now, it would surprise everyone to find out that the enemy was within us all along.After the rogues attacked Alpha Thor and ran off, I suggested that I would go with the werewolves that had been assigned to go after the rogues.It was not out of concern though, I just wanted to find answers to things that seem suspicious to me.I led the werewolves into the forest, it was strange to me that I agreed to go with them. Even though I was not an Alpha, as the heir to the Gama, I was not to participate in such a task again. Others might also think it was weird, but I care less about it. I needed to get answers.The rogues were seen running towards the forest, the one rogue that had a strong special scent was the one I was after, a
Amanda's POVThe easiest way to make mistakes in life is to start concerning yourself with what the world has to say about you. However, if one desires to live a peaceful life, you must ignore the unnecessary side talk.People don't usually have a retentive memory for good things especially the good things done by the person they have rejected.I realized that no matter how I tried my best to be seen in a different light, they would never stop discriminating against me and my kids. So I stopped caring about their hateful words and focused on myself and things that are important. And of course, I mean my kids and my fashion store.Rick had sent an invitation to go out with him. He must be suffering from amnesia, or maybe he was just being persistent. Because I have repeatedly asked him to stay away from me, but he just won't listen. It is quite hard to move on when the other party keeps showing up to your face or they keep finding ways to get back into your life.Allowing Rick back int
Rick's POVIt was Amanda's birthday, I had always tried my best to make it fun in the past. These days we hardly talk, she does not want to see me anywhere around her. But then, I still wanted to be there for her today, maybe I could win her over again. Today being a special day in her life, she would not want to pick a fight. On my way to her, I stopped by a bakery.She loved red velvet and chocolate cakes. I got a box of each flavor for her. I was happy driving down to her.Once I was there, I knocked on the door several times but there was no response, it seems no one was in the house. I went around through the other side of the building, everywhere was dead silent.The house was empty. Without much thought, I knew Amanda must have gone out somewhere with Jackson. I was furious. I particularly asked her to come out with me but she never replied to my text message, which means she did not want to go with me. And now she was out with that sonofabitch. Has he always been on her mind?
Amanda's POVAlthough it was my birthday, I was not expecting anything special or a peaceful day. I knew it would be another regular day, where someone disrespectful interrupts my day, someone like Rick.But what I did not expect was a proposal from him. It was shocking and hilarious at the same time.“I can't. It's not possible” I rejected his proposal outrightly. His pitiful expression quickly changed to anger and displeasure.If he actually thought that I would say yes to his proposal, he must have thought too low of me. And if I had accepted him, I would be disappointing myself and throwing myself off to be disrespected.Rick became furious, I could see the veins on his neck rising and falling, he held his hands in a fist like was going to punch me in my face.I guess he lost the strength to keep persuading me, he picked the cake boxes and walked away from me. When he got to the , he disposed of the cakes and the ring in the trash can.It was unbelievable. I have never seen this s
Amanda's POVThe evening was slowly closing up, I wanted to get home before the kids so I could prepare dinner for us. I left Jackson and I came home directly. When I approached the house, I noticed something was not right, like someone was trying to break into the house. I was afraid, going closer could be dangerous, but I still wanted to get closer anyway. I wanted to be aware of what I was afraid of.I hurried a little closer, taking each step carefully like someone who was sneaking out. But then I realised that no one was trying to break in, it was Rick who was there. Maybe he had waited all along, I had no idea. But when I saw the rage etched around his mouth, I knew that there was a problem.“Why have you been all evening?” He yelled out like an abusive husband asking his wife why the soup was salty.“Number one, you will not raise your voice at me when next you get the opportunity to talk to me. Secondly, what right do you have to query me? What does any of my business have to
Jackson's POVIt has never been heard that any prisoner escaped in my wolfpack. This was new and I never expected it to happen. The guards must have been careless, otherwise, this wouldn't have happened.I was furious at the last bone on my body.“What did I tell you this morning?”“I'm sorry, Alpha. I will make sure we find him” the chief guard begged.“You have half an hour to bring him before me, or you give up your own life in his place” I warned.I left my office immediately and drove back home. All the important people in my life were there, I wanted to make sure they were safe and alright.“He must be around somewhere in the pack. He can't be far away. Send all the guards around the pack, I don't care if you have to send all thousands of them out, you must bring Rick before me, dead or alive” I said to the chief guard finally before driving off.I picked my phone to call Amanda. “Hi, are you okay?” I asked anxiously.“Yes, honey. We are fine. I just found out that Rick got out
Amanda's POVReya quickly became the sister and friend I never have. She was a confidant and a true friend. I feel so comfortable around her, unlike in the past when I found it difficult to make friends with others. Once I informed her about the new development and that I needed her assistant, she quickly decided to move to our own wolfpack to live so she can work with me. She was not married yet, that was what made it easy for her to decide.“What about the business you wanted to start, Reya?” I said to her on the phone.“It's never too late to do anything. Look, I can sell the store and add the money to the funds I had, and then invest it in some other things, I could even make so much profit without running an actual business” she explained.“Is that so? You have thought about this thoroughly, okay?”“You don't have to worry about anything. I have relatives that are investment experts, they will guide me through and you will how much money I can make”“Ok. If you say so. You don't
Jackson's POVPeople don't take things seriously until you have to use forceful means. After my meeting with the elders, I had given them a day to expel Rick, and take the position of Alpha from both him and Dolcie's father. But the day was running out and I have not heard anything from them. My patients had limits. The only reason why I was lenient with them was because I have a wife and kids now. Whatever I do, I must put their safety into consideration too. I don't want them to be affected in the future. But that doesn't mean I would continue to tolerate those who continuously tried to hurt Amanda, my woman.“By tomorrow morning, if there is no positive result from those elders, take those rats to the centre of the pack and execute them before everyone, let them die a shameful death,” I said to the chief guard.“We will do as you wish, Alpha. Rick looked like he is hatching an escape plan, that is why we have to do something about them soon”“And you are telling me? What is your jo
Amanda's POVSuccess is not just about big achievements, it is also the accomplishment of the things that seem insignificant, yet they make a notable impact in our lives. All of these things were not grand events, but when I looked at how much we have done in a short time, I was moved. Knowing that I had a support system was even a bigger joy for me. We all seek to be independent, but in the end, the truth is we all need each other to grow. And even when we have attained this growth, we still need each somehow. For instance, I need the baker's bread for breakfast, the baker needs the service of his staff for production, likewise, someone else needs my dresses. We all need each other.After lunch we rested for an hour before we continued with other things. As agreed before Jackson went for a meeting, we decided to go to the location together. It was as if I was dreaming.“Are you that excited?” Jackson asked and chuckled.“Uh huh! This means a lot to me, for real. Even when I was a fam
Amanda's POVSo much could happen in a day and it would even beat things you spent years accomplishing. I was able to get my things from Rick's wolfpack, I met Reya again, I got a massive order, and Jackson helped with a location to build my store and even a temporary place to use for my client's dresses. All of this made my day a perfect one.After laying down to sleep as Jackson suggested, I couldn't sleep for a while, my mind kept wandering around, until I adjusted my body to Jackson's body and laid on his chest. He chuckled when he saw that.“You should have mentioned that you need me to fall asleep”“You don't have to make fun of me”“Ok. Sleep” he reached to my forehead with a kiss”As I laid on his chest and the rhythm of our heartbeat was almost in sync, I fell asleep soon. I guess he did too.I was overwhelmed with excitement and anticipation. I felt like a child going to a new school on the first day. What would it look like? I know that as Luna, everyone would want to patro
Amanda's POVFor every thousand shifts in one's life, is one significant change. A change to a new direction, a change to new life, a step into a new experience. I have long adjusted to these shifts in my life. I have realized that everytime something major happens in my life, there will be a change too. Everything changes for good. Maybe because I had chosen to see only the food side of every situation, no matter the huddles that come along with it.I went from being a miserable teenage girl to finding a skill that turned to a career and then to falling in love with who I thought was my savior and friend. When I thought I had reached my home of peaceful peace, I realized I was wrong, the universe still had so much in store for me. Rick turned out to be my grave and then I had to move on to the next phase of my life again. Jackson, the father of my pups, the man who was never in the picture again, I didn't even have him in my memory again until he showed up in my fashion store in the
Jackson's POVSatisfaction comes from little things that we do for ourselves or for the people around us. As long as it is from the heart. It is really not so difficult to attain satisfaction, one day at a time. These days, I found peace in doing everything I did.I just knew I wasn't happy with the fact that Amanda was bored at home. I felt like I was responsible for that. I brought her here, meanwhile she was used to being busy with her work. I was overwhelmed and carried away with the joy of their presence without considering how she might be feeling when I'm busy and she was left alone at home. I had no idea she would love to begin her fashion business again.But I was glad I asked her and when she mentioned it, I was able to help her with everything. I was going to support her with everything within my power and I was beginning to set goals on her behalf. She was a renowned fashion designer in the real human world, now that she was in the wolf pack, It had now become my goal to m
Amanda's POV.What was giving me so much joy in the past days was the fact that I now have my family completely. Sitting on the dining table together, taking a walk together and all other things. Everyday became brighter than the previous day. It was as if we were living a fairytale story.After Jackson was done making lunch, we sat at the dining room waiting for him while he dished the meal.Timothy and Sarah had little time to spend with us, after having lunch, they were to take a thirty minute nap before their training master would come for them.Immediately we got here, Jackson hired a personal trainer for them to help them control their power and how to make use of their claws too.“Do you enjoy the meal?”“Are you asking again? It's so nice”“Really?”“Of course. You don't believe in yourself again?”“I do. I just wanted to know Her Majesty thinks”I laughed as I joined him to clear the table.“Can I prepare something for you too?”“Are you trying to pay me back”“A yes or no wo
Being idle could make one feel sick, no matter your past success and accomplishment, when you're idle, you may even begin to feel empty, like you are wasting away. Before the feeling of unfulfillment overwhelms me, I decided to force myself to sleep until my kids or Jackson return.Everywhere was dead quiet, the guards were at the door too.I ended up sleeping off.It was a slow day and it looked like it would never end.I heard a familiar voice responding to greetings and I was slowly awakened. I sat up when I realized Jackson was back home. I could hear his footsteps approaching, so I stood up to meet him halfway.“You are back!” I said with excitement as he opened the door.“Yes ma'am! How are you?” He asked me before wrapping me up with his big arms.“I'm alright” I said, sounding unsure.When we both sat down on the couch across the bed, he was looking at me like he was a doctor examining his patient.“What is that?” I asked him.“Nothing. I just think that I shouldn't have leave
