Andra's PovAndra was dumbfounded, she had always liked him and she wished she was his mate but she didn't know he also liked her." I know this is shocking and unexpected , and I know there's no point in saying this now. But I just wanted to clear my mind. I really like you a lot and I would have been the best mate to you if I was the one for you but the moon goodness understands"." I feel the same way Robert ", Andra blurted. Robert, who had been talking looking at his hands suddenly looked at the screen." I also wished you were my mate. I like you very much Robert . To be honest, I wished you were the one but the moon goddess does understand. I didn't want to say anything because I didn't know how you felt and I didn't want to jeopardize our friendship. " Andra gave a smile feeling happier she had finally let out her feelings.They both smiled at each other and decided to snap out and come back to reality . "Well, just because you're not my mate doesn't mean we stop being friends
Seth's Pov Seth opened his eyes slowly and started looking around. 'Where am I? ', he closed his eyes and tried to recall what had happened. Then everything came back like a flash to him.He remembered how his parents were killed in cold blood and how he begged Uncle Feng to help him get revenge. He opened his eyes again, with the determination to eradicate the species of werewolves ."You're awake",a nurse said standing over Seth looking at his vitals . She left the room after checking him . After a while Feng came in."How are you doing son" ,he asked lightly."I still haven't changed my mind, Uncle Feng. I want to avenge my family"."Common you just woke up, at least rest a little then we can talk about what you want to do . Oh also Weng is here, you guys can play video games".Weng came in and tried to cheer Seth a little but Seth couldn't bring himself to smile. Feng left the room after some minutes saying he had to take a call.Back in America… .Richard was pacing the room tal
Alaric's POVEdward felt his heart slam against his chest like it was about to explode. 'Why would Rodrigo have an objection? I thought he still approved of me a little?', he thought confused. "May I know what your objection is humble sire", Alaric asked, smiling. Rodrigo climbed down the stairs and sat beside Alaric facing Edward. " It's not just by ensuring no harm comes to him. What if you ensure no harm comes to him but still maltreat him? What if you do not feed him or care for his needs? What if he's not free to talk around you later on because you yelled at him or something? ".He rested back on the chair, folded his arms and continued," I think the clause shouldn't be only limited if any harm comes to him. It should be how you treat him in general. If you don't cook for him in the morning, I wouldn't mind finding out how your blood tastes".Edward gulped nervously and nodded. He had decided to take good care of Colton but now , he was going to take care of him better than hi
Andra's POVAndra woke up the next morning extremely happy. She was glad her parents had accepted her travelling. Even though she still had a week, she decided to start sorting her clothes.At a point she stopped because she wasn't sure if Ariana and Robert were coming with her. The thought of going alone made her mood drop. She dropped the cloth she was holding and went back to sit down.She removed her phone from the cord and decided to message Ariana."Hey babe, what's up. Are you awake?"After a few seconds Ariana's reply came in."Hey darling, how are you doing, yes I'm awake , how was your night?""It was fine, thank you. Hope you slept well?" " Yes babe , I slept well, let's switch to call, that's faster". Ariana called Andra and she picked up immediately. " Have you told your dad about the trip? ", Andra asked immediately. " Yea , I told him yesterday evening. At first he was skeptical , but after a while he gave in. He said I should get back to him about the places we're
Seth's POVRichard buried Seth's parents and held a little funeral. Seth cried all through but after sometime he had a hardened look on his face all through. When they were done with the burial, the lawyer, Mr Philips met with Richard and Seth."Good evening Mr Richard, good evening Seth. I offer my deepest condolences . I'm sorry Seth, but I believe the Lord knows best. They are with the Lord now and I'm sure they are way more comfortable than this corrupted earth", Seth nodded but didn't say anything, he was far from interested in the lawyer's greetings.Richard saw Seth had no intention of saying anything and decided to speak first, " Thank you very much Mr Philips , this is a very sad moment for us and we are hoping for this phase to pass . I know with time we would hopefully heal", Richard said as sadly as he could fake.Seth was just sitting looking at the two men with his thoughts far away. What happened the night his parents were killed kept replaying in his mind. He made sure
Alaric's POVRodrigo and Alaric spent the next one week ensuring Colton was well settled in school, they installed bodyguards as security men and janitors and they took Colton to and fro from school, also preparing him about their travel. They had settled their tickets and the hotels they would stay in. They got their clothes ready and Rodrigo made some plans secretly for them to explore every inch of Italy and the countries they visited. Rodrigo wasn't sure if he would find his mate but he held on to the thought with a slim hope. Friday came and they were to leave for the airport in the evening . Colton was missing them already and didn't want them to go. "I'm going to miss you dads, a whole lot. And to think I won't see you for six whole months", Colton whined. " We will miss you also son, very much in fact. We would ensure to call and message every day. Remember you can always tell us if there's something wrong or if there's an emergency. "Colton nodded tearily. Alaric moved clo
Robert's POVAriana decided to speak as it seemed like Robert wouldn't say anything, "Uhm mum, we were thinking… ", But Robert quickly interrupted her deciding it would be better his mother hears from him , "There's something I've been meaning to ask you and dad", Robert cleared his throat and looked at his mother who was looking at him encouragingly. "I was thinking of going on a trip for about six months… I just want to clear my head and prepare myself for the Alpha title. Also I've been living here my whole life, I think I need experience of the outside world ".Robert's mum looked at him and smiled," Funny how your father was still saying the same thing some days ago. You should be completely free to ask what you want son, else you never know if you'll get it or not. Why don't you discuss it with your father when he gets back, hm, I'm sure you'll have a positive response ".Ariana smiled relieved and Roberts hugged his mom , she hugged him back stroking his head and Robert purre
Seth's POV 'Even with me killing my brother, they still think I'm a weakling. How dare they? Is this how they all view me? A weakling who can't protect himself? Or do they think I'm too cruel and they need to be around to stop me? Should I kill him? If I do, they might say I'm killing my own men and they might turn against me. I should let this slide instead', Richard concluded after thinking hard.Antonio, ignorant of his mistake, kept looking at Richard thinking Richard was thinking about his offer. After some seconds Richard finally told him, "I've been thinking of ways to kill you. You're always very thoughtless and stupid. Protect me? Protect me!, What makes you think you can protect me uhn? "He moved closer to Antonio and continued," Should we have a battle where we see who can protect who?'' Antonio kept quiet unsure if to talk." Answer me! " , Richard shouted angrily." No sir" Antonio was blaming himself mentally for mistalking ," I'm sorry sir, it won't happen again"." O
Seth's POVI got back to my Uncle and saw he was already awake. I had long debated on what to do and reached a conclusion. I couldn't leave the fact that he killed my family and attempted to kill me also, not to mention he did all these and wasn't in the slightest repentful. I was very disappointed when I got the report of him getting his men to attack me but it only made me reach a decision."Hii Uncle, I just want to say the next few years of your life is going to be nothing but sheer pain. I won't kill you nor would I allow you to die. I would torture you for so many years. You not only harmed me, but also harmed your blood brother. Not to mention you attempted to do the same thing years later again. It's sad that you indeed didn't love me at all and only used me for money. Take it as your redemption"." I know you wouldn't spare me , I only ask , you end this quickly "." I can't do that Uncle, unless your quickly go over a span of ten years. I would be adopting Uncle Feng as my le
Seth's POVImmediately I got to the torture house where I kept Andra, I deactivated all the buttons. She was lying on the floor clutching her tummy, her jeans stained with blood.'Did she have a miscarriage?', I asked myself. I felt terrible immediately especially after knowing she's innocent. I thought of the Vampire who killed a man in the alley but then what if the man attacked him first?. "Andra", I called out to her but she didn't reply."I'm not sure if you're hearing me or not but I just want to say I want to release you".She immediately turned her head to me, "What of my mate, what did you do to him? Tell me!"It was understandable she thought I harmed her mate since that was what I imposed originally. "You should be more worried about yourself. You're bleeding"."What did you do to my mate?"she asked again, this time her voice pleading."Nothing. I should thank your mate. It's not for him, I wouldn't have discovered the truth. Now I have to apologize to you because I have w
Seth's POVI was skeptical, I was going insane at a very fast speed. I didn't want to believe what Alaric said but no matter how much I tried , I couldn't get myself to not see the truth. I had blinded myself from everything that resembled it and even distanced myself from people but now it was all coming together.I kept pacing around, trying to calm myself down as I held onto the last straw of hope that my uncle is actually innocent and didn't kill my father. Everything Uncle Feng said to me kept coming back. He had always warned me to be careful of my uncle but I ignored him.He had always told me stories of family betrayal. He had also given me many hints but I ignored them and told myself it wasn't true and he was the last person I had as a family.I took deep breaths trying to calm down but only went crazy every second. I kept going over everything in my head till I heard my phone notification sound. I rushed to my phone and checked the pictures Alaric sent.I opened them and I
Seth's POVI went to the torture room I kept Alaric's wife and saw her sleeping on the floor clutching her tummy . I felt bad deep down but I pushed those feelings away and replaced it with the pain and sadness I felt all these years."Andra!", I called her but she didn't reply or move. "Andra", I called again but she still didn't move. I decided to jolt her awake. I put on the electric switch and it shocked the entire cage, she immediately jolted up in pain and screamed out.I put off the switch seeing I had her attention. "Even if you don't have a heart, don't you have a family? How would you feel seeing them being tortured this way", she spat at me. I felt anger blind my eyes and every being.I put on the switch again and added the wolfsbane gas . She screamed and screamed, rolling in pain. I knew the pain was more because she was pregnant but I didn't mind. All I wanted to do was kill her for daring to mention my family. After about three minutes, she was bleeding from her nose a
Alaric's POVI bid my mate farewell when she left home but for some reason I kept feeling anxious. Something kept poking me that something bad was about to happen but I couldn't place my hand on it. After a while I assumed it was with the business meeting I had tomorrow so I brushed the feeling away.About thirty minutes later, the feeling came back stronger. It was then my instincts immediately went to my mate. The last time I felt this strange was when my parents were killed. I immediately became extremely worried. Has something happened to my mate?I placed a call to her phone but it was not reachable. "That's weird, her flight couldn't have taken off so she should still be able to pick up the call. Why is her number unavailable?". I immediately placed a call to Stephen, my man I placed as her personal bodyguard.He and three other guys, two from her pack, stayed with her in the car. I called his number several times but his number was also not reachable . It was then I knew someth
Seth's POVIt's been two weeks and I've finally won over Joy. She told me everything about her work and even facts she would keep normally. I learnt Alaric Dusk was possessive about his wife and vice versa. It occurred to me that, if I take the wife, it would greatly weaken him.I began to plan on how to kidnap her. Luckily for me, almost a week later, Joy came to me happily saying she would be able to take a leave because her bosses are traveling out of the country for a while. I tried to get her to spill more information on where they were getting and when they would leave without being suspicious when she got to my place the next day.I went close to her, wrapped my hands around her and cuddled her. I kissed her forehead and cheeks then rested my head on hers. "You have so much work to do , you know, you would be so busy later on", she said concerned."I know, but I can't think of work at all when I am with you. Don't you know how much peace you give me? It makes me so happy and r
Seth's POVI had been spying on the Dusk's for a month now. The wife Andra Dusk was pregnant. It made me hate her more. She was happily pregnant with her baby but my mom wasn't even allowed to be happy for a moment during her pregnancy.It made me more determined and I wanted her to lose her baby. I had tried getting close to the guards but they were very strict. After a while I found out they were vampires and werewolves.I should have suspected they would do this. It made getting access to them harder. I then began to focus on the maids. Of all the maids I noticed a young woman who was close to Andra.She was human. I wasn't sure how I knew but I could feel it. I decided to get close to her and make her fall in love with me. I began to take note of her every moment and took action the next week.She was going to the mall today and from her previous outings she would spend an hour shopping. I had planned a little kidnap accident. After all who doesn't fall in love with their saviour.
Andra's POVWe hugged and greeted everyone. Robert also made a surprise visit with his very beautiful blonde and pregnant mate. Ariana's was celebrating the new pack house for her pack and it was so gorgeous and huge. It was like a mansion. They all could live there together. They decided that anyone who didn't want to build their house could live there. This was one of the places I could freely be myself so I jumped and danced all day long. It was evening and we were sitting around a bonfire gisting and singing. When it was midnight people started retiring to their rooms. After a while I was feeling really dizzy and weak so I told my mate I wanted to go to bed.We had our own rooms… privileges of being best friend's with the Alpha daughter… My mate carried me to the bed and showered me with kisses. "We should shower first baby", I told him wanting to mate him but my urge for sleep was stronger.He carried me to the bathtub and we spent a while there, allowing the water to soak into

After Ariana's pack got attacked years ago, they strengthened their security, and Rodrigo moved to stay with her permanently. He began shuffling business between the two countries and eventually moved it over and they got married shortly after. Her father was extremely lucky to find love In a human who accepted him for what he is and he has been happier and more alive ever since. My mate was skeptical at first about Rodrigo moving the busniess but it was the three of us against him alone so he didn't exactly have a choice. Although he sulked for quite a while that I didn't take his side.I petted him for over a week about it and he only agreed when I told him I would be his pet for a day. We had some intense fun then. My baby brother keeps growing bigger and bigger each day and although I haven't told my pare
