Chapter81Tessa's povI knelt in front of my mate who was now my husband with my eyes closed. My knees shivered but I was determined to keep them on the ground as long as seeing me that way didn't make him hit me.Tears mixed with sweat trailed down my eyes and steamed to my chin where it formed a droplet before falling."Tessa." He called, his tone was gentle and it got me confused, was this not Jace?I didn't open my eyes because I didn't want to stare into those angry eyes of his."Tessa." He called again. I could feel his hands on my shoulders and I flinched."Please…" I tried not to say anything but the word kept coming out."Tessa, I don't want to hear that." "Why was he being gentle?" My head screamed danger as my pounding heart nearly ran out of my chest."Tessa, please open your eyes and look at me." Just as he requested, my eyes opened on their own accord like they were spell bound by him."I'm sorry." I blinked twice when I heard those words come out from his lips."Baby,
Chapter82Cain's pov.Raven and I had been living together happily. We went on dates and I made sure I helped her with all her needs.It was morning already and I had already done all the chores that needed to be done.I sat down for dinner, shirtless and was having my morning coffee while reading the papers when the scent of my mate hit my nostrils.I turned to her with a smile and she did the same."Someone wants to be romantic." She teased, moving to come sit with me on the dinning chair. She had a naughty smile on her face as her hands trailed my chest before she sat next to me."Do you work out?" I asked, sipping a cup of coffee."I feel so, I feel like I love martial arts too." She replied with a smile.Just then, my phone which was on the table started ringing."Pick it up." Raven suggested and I groaned."It's probably the alpha." I dropped the paper and picked up the phone."Have you seen Luna Xena?" His voice sounded urgent over the phone."Luna Xena?" I asked and he groane
Chapter83Ravens pov."Will you marry me?" His words sounded in my eyes like a dream come true. I loved him so much and for once, I felt like this world was being fair to me.I had gone through lots of pain in my life, lots of losses had happened in my life due to my loved ones which I had lost and the moon Goddess was trying to replace it with the happiness my mate was going to give me.I gazed into his eyes and I could see how worried he was as his eyes searched mine, wondering what answer I was going to give him concerning his request."Please Raven, say yes and make me the happiest man on earth," he replied, still kneeling on the ground.I didn't know what I wanted so many things were happening all at the same time. I needed to find my friend, I needed to find happiness as well."Please, Raven," he held my hands, still giving me reasons to say yes."Yes," I replied when the pressure had become too much. I loved my friend but I needed help with finding her."You have to promise me
Chapter84Cain's povI moved to my room, disappointment printed all over myself as I heaved a tired sigh while I let myself collapse on the bed.I didn't know what else to do, my mind was in panic and I really needed to get Tessa back. Just like I did, she also took the rejection seriously and now it seems like I have lost her forever."Think, what do I do now, think," I pressured myself continuously as I paced round the room, thinking of what I could do.Just then, my beta walked in. He seemed to be happy but the moment he saw me, he paused, his expression switching into that of worry."Are you alright?" Liam asked, moving closer to me where I was seated on the bed."No, I'm not," I replied with a frown on my face. I know I didn't like talking to him before but we made up before his wedding and have shared our problems with each other ever since."Tell me what the matter is," he replied, with a worried gaze plastered all over his face. He was the beta and it was natural for him to ge
Chapter85Tessa's povAfter Jace left the room, all I could feel was pure hatred for him. He caused all of this I was feeling and now he was coming back saying he wanted to fix the relationship."Never, it was never going to work!" I gazed at myself in the mirror as hot tears streamed down my face. I was determined to make him pay for the harm he did to me, for almost killing me and for making me hate him so much.I crouched down in pain when I saw vivid images of his ill treatment began to show in my head.I wanted to be strong but I couldn't stop myself from sobbing continuously. I was a human being and the pain I was feeling couldn't be described.I crouched on the ground, my tears, mixing with my sweat as I sobbed on the floor. My hair got stuck to my face because of how I was sweating and my eyes had turned completely red due to the constant tears."He's our mate, give him a chance," my wolf spoke up even though she was sad. She knew how important our mate was to us."No, I can't
Chapter 86Xena's pov.I breathe Continuously, running even when my lungs were hurting. We had escaped from the Packhouse very early in the morning and I was sure we would be caught if we didn't leave here on time."Luna, you have to rest," Jenna moved behind me as she spoke in a breathless manner."We can't!" I too was breathless but I would rather die than go back to that man."Luna, please," Jenna finally caught up with me but I didn't stop running."We are now far from the border, you can now do something to stop running Luna, you might be putting your baby at risk," the young girl tried to convince me but I was scared. I knew Zain would have already found out I was missing but I didn't want him to catch up with me."Luna, calm down," she held my pulling me so I could stop."Stop it!" I paused, my hair glueing to the sweat on my face as my chest moved like the pounding heart in my chest."You don't know what I've gone through in the hands of that monster!" I gritted my teeth whi
Chapter87Jace's pov.I was in my room, having a glass of red wine when Liam barged into my room without knocking. He was fond of that and no matter how much I corrected him, he always ended up making the same mistake."Why can't you knock?" I sat on my bed, gazing at him while he tried to catch his breath."I, I'm…" he breathed through his mouth and his nose. His hands were placed on his knees as he tried so hard to get air into his lungs."What is it?" I finally knew something was wrong. "Are we being attacked?" I asked and only when he nodded negatively did I calm down. We had signed a treaty alongside six packs not to fight each other anymore and that was done by alpha Zain so I was sure the only attacks would be from rouge."Alpha Zain is approaching the pack house!" He exclaimed, still breathing hard."What?! On such short notice?" I questioned myself but I still had to prepare a feast for him."Fine, tell the chefs to make something presentable. You, make sure the pack house i
Chapter88Xena's pov.I didn't know when I slept off but I opened my eyes to find out it was already late at night. I tried to sit up but all my body ached like there was no tomorrow."Jenna?" I called but she seemed too lost in thought or probably asleep. However, what surprised me was her ability to sleep while sitting down."I looked around and the fire she had lit earlier was already reduced." The woods was a scary place to be but I had no choice. I was glad that she was able to stay by my side and was able to save my baby.I rubbed my baby bump with smiles on my lips. I didn't know what I would do if I had lost my baby today.Suddenly, everything turned dead quiet and even when I just woke up, I suddenly felt sleepy again. I yawned and like a spell, my eyes slowly closed but before it could close completely, I was able to catch a glimpse of something that came towards jasmine.I didn't know what it was but it was like a shadow coming close to her."Jen–" I wasn't able to call her
Chapter102"It's fine Luna Xena, we just have to take care of you first. I just have to make sure you are okay. Look at you," she turned towards me with tears in her eyes."You look so tired and skinny. The maids would take care of you, you need to worry about me," "You're in pain, he's hurting you, isn't he!" My eyes scanned her and I felt disgusted at the fact that she stayed with such a man."I would never in my wildest dreams want you to sacrifice yourself for me, we should run away, please!" I gazed at her, trying to get her to reason with me becsuee I knew there were lots of things on ground right now."I don't want to leave, I can't!" "Why, you're a witch, you can make him forget you're his wife and then, we can move on, you have the power," "I can't help it Luna Xena," she replied and my eyes widened because I didn't know what she was talking about."Do you love him?" I asked, gulping as I felt the pressure she was feeling right now,""Don't do that Luna, don't look at me t
Chapter101Xena's pov.I ran through the bushes, my face covered in sweat as I ran. My hair was blown about by the wind and some were glued to the sweat on my face."You need to rest, what about your baby," my wolf spoke but I wasn't ready to listen. I had already been betrayed by so many people in this life and I wished the moon goddess would just take my life at this point."Please," she spoke in a humble manner. She was trying to convince me not to be stressed because of my baby. I had almost lost my baby before and it took a lot for me to handle."Please," she spoke with worry on her face. She didn't know what else to do because she had tried her best in order for her to find a real friend but she couldn't.Jenna used her witch magic to deceive her. It was hurtful to her and she didn't see the reason why Jenna followed her in the first place if she was just going to end up losing her."Ugh!" I stopped, leaning on a tree to catch my breath. I was so tired and my legs hurt badly bec
Chapter100Logan's pov.I sat in my house sipping my drink when I heard my phone ring. The smile on my face instantly faded but when I saw who was calling, my smile returned."Hello, crystal. What's the matter?" "It's working, Vixen is so sick right now but beta Cain found out and he called a doctor," I laughed when I heard what she said and I couldn't help but chuckle loudly because it was so ironic for them to call a doctor."Did you hear what I said? He called a doctor over, what if they found out he had been poisoned, I do not want to be involved, I'm scared," Her words caused me to laugh even more and I could tell my laughter was causing her to be afraid."Don't be scared my queen, we can do something about it, you don't have to be scared," "What can we do," I said in her voice but I wasn't worried."Nothing," I chuckled again, sipping my whisky."Logan! I'm scared, tell me what to do in other not to get caught, I'm afraid I'll be killed and then I can't be with you any–" "En
Chapter99I nodded while ending the call, I understood what he was talking about and I knew that Vixen needed serious care but in order not to get Raven even more mad. I knew I had done things wrongly and I needed her to forgive me so I would do as she said. I went to take a long bath.Inside the bathroom, I couldn't get over the fact that she caught me in bed with another woman. I felt so bad and I wished to make it up to her. She was an excellent woman, someone I didn't want to lose and I knew that in order to be able to have her, I needed to prove myself.I let the cold shower wash over me as I closed my eyes. I didn't know why I was so guilty about the matter but all this would never have happened if I stayed away from Kira."Fuck it!" I vented my anger in the bathroom as I hit the wall a couple of times till my hands turned red. I knew that I had done something wrong and I needed to make up for it but I was scared she would leave me alone for good.I didn't want Raven to go away,
Chapter98Cain's povI moved out of Alpha Vixen's room with worry printed all over my face. I didn't know why he didn't want to let his son know he was sick. Besides, I couldn't call him now because it would be night in their place and I didn't want him to be worried at such an hour so I decided to talk to him about it tomorrow."Beta Cain?" One of the maids called my attention and I smiled."Hello, how are you?" I asked her, pausing beçause I knew she wanted to talk to me."I'm fine, have you seen the alpha vixen, I'm worried about him," she instantly said. She was his personal Maid and she had been observing him for a while."Tell me, when did he start showing such symptoms?" "He has that cough for a while now, almost a month," "What? And Zain doesn't know about this?" "He asked me not to tell anyone. He was just quiet and wants to be alone, he says his time is near," Now that was really something to worry about."Tell me, what else are the symptoms, did you call a doctor?" "No
Chapter97Xena's pov.I didn't know how long we had walked but my legs were already sore. My breathing was uneven and I felt a little bit dizzy."Are you alright, Luna?" She asked, moving close to me as she supported my body which was already swaying left and right."Yes, I'm fine, thank you for checking up on me," I passed her a small smile as I bent down to take my seat close to a nearby tree."Water?" She asked, bringing the keg of water in the back pack she had carried earlier."Yes please," I gasped, collecting the water can in her hand and gulping down the water. I was so thirsty and even when we were in a forest with less heat due to the fact that trees were blocking us from the scorching sun, we had walked a long distance without taking food or water.My stomach growled and Jenna's eyes widened. "Oh my, I totally forgot about your meal. Here are some berries, I picked them up, they are good for you," she smiled and even when I wanted to ask where she got the berries, I was too
Chapter96I had missed Demitri so much and I didn't know what to do because I knew now that our children were now in peace, we automatically did not have any reason for us to be fighting."Tell me what you want and I'll do it to you baby, I wanna please you tonight and make you scream," "I missed that," I moaned, allowing him to rip off my nightgown. I was completely naked because I didn't wear anything underneath it."Please," I cried out in moans when his lips rested on my neck and began to trial lower.I arched my back, my eyes closed as I grabbed on to the sheets. It had been weeks since I got this feeling of tingle on my abdomen."Fuck!" He yelled when he scented my arousal, I was so wet, my pussy juice trailed down my lap."You smell so good I wanna eat you," I opened my eyes when I heard his words and I gulped at how he leaked his lips."I wanna eat you everywhere," he moved his lips against my nipples, his eyes gazing into mine."Mmm…" I was panting because the pleasure was s
Chapter95Taylor's pov.I gazed at the ceiling with a frown on my face as I thought about the day I went to meet my daughter and how she threw me out of her room.Anger boiled in me and even when I wanted to be with demitri, I decided to leave him because what is the use being with someone whose son caused my relationship with my daughter to be destroyed. I was so angry and didn't know what to do. I have been having sleepless nights and no matter how hard I try to put myself in place, I always don't know how to.Demitri was one person who was always there for me in my ups and downs and now, I had pushed him away from my life because I couldn't take it anymore.After talking to Jace that day, I stormed into his office and despite the love and the assurance he gave me, I told him I needed some time to think about the situation at hand."What do you mean by that?" I heard Demitri's words in my head as i closed my eyes while the memory played in my head."I'm saying we shouldn't see each
Jace's pov.I watched her in admiration, smiles on my face as I caressed her cheek with my palms. She was the best and even when I hadn't marked her yet, I had a good time.I paused, creased lines appearing on my head when I thought of the reason why she possibly had herself to me."Did she suddenly forgive me?" I sighed, gazing at her with fear in my heart. I hoped she wasn't drugged or drunk because it meant I took advantage of her."Jace?" I didn't know how long I sat there, staring into space but her calm voice was able to pull me back to reality."Tessa," I called back, hoping she wasn't going to get angry with me."What were you thinking about?" Her brow was raised as she questioned me and my heart skipped a beat."Nothing," I lied, attempting to move away from the bed when her hands caught me."Don't lie to me, I knew you were thinking about something and even when you don't want to tell me what you were thinking about, I could always find out," she smiled, gazing at me with
