Chapter 103 I am rich! MYSTIC SHADOWS FORTRESSAlice dropped down from the car with Linda and made their way towards the hospital. Linda had a big black shades on trying to keep herself away from familiar eyes. Deep within her, Alice hoped she is doing Jovy a favor by letting the strange woman know about her location. Calming her palpitating heart down as they got into the hospital premises, she texted Arlo in a hurry to know if he has arrived.Arlo was already with Jovy, handing her a cup of freshly made hot ginger tea to help her belly warm up faster. The moment Alice had called to inform him of her coming. Arlo had left everything he was doing and returned to the hospital. He had slept by her side all through the night but he needed to grab fresh clothes for Jovy."Are you nervous?" He asked Jovy.Jovy looked up at him. “I don't know how I am suppose to feel. But one thing is sure…my thoughts are jumbled at the moment."The door opened letting in Alice and Linda. Recognition d
Chapter 104 Alpha Cruelty MYSTIC SHADOWS FORTRESSResting her butt on the couch in her room, Jovy groaned lightly and she pat her belly. It still feels unreal that her baby was no longer there. She had envisioned how beautiful her life would become with the child's presence. Tears sting the back of her eyes as she tried to sit up. Her heart felt heavy.Jovy had only returned from the hospital about an hour ago and her supposed husband, Logan, hasn't deem it fit to check on her. For the entire week she spent at the hospital, Alice and Arlo had been the only one to stay by her side. Especially Arlo, Jovy couldn't thank him enough for standing by her till the end of her ordeal.A light knock came from behind the door. "Come in." Jovy called out gently.Kyrian walked in with Arlo and a small smile appeared on her lips. "Hey there, Jovy." Kyrian said.Jovy bowed her head lightly. “Good day, Beta.""I am so sorry for not checking up on you all through the time you spent in the hospital.
Chapter 105 Green eyes and a latent wolf GOLD PACKNadia looked on in despair as her brother groaned in severe pain. She would have never thought his sickness would escalate to such extent. Marcel had always been a strong and persistent man but he submitted himself totally to the Moon Fever that has consumed him. It got him more as a result of the situation of things surrounding him. Ever since he got stuck to the sickbed, it had been hard for them to keep the pack moving while the Alpha lays lifeless.Xavier, Alpha Marcel’s adopted son walked in. “Hello, aunt." Xavier greeted Nadia as he went to her and kissed her cheek.Nadia wrapped her arms around his waist. "Hey Xavier, how are you doing?"Xavier rubbed at her back gently. “I am just great, aunt. How is dad doing?"Nadia let out a scoff and rolled er eyes. "What do you think? He keeps groaning all day and it is becoming a bother."Staring at the almost shrinking body of his father, Xavier took a deep breath and he released
Chapter 106 Epitome of strength MYSTIC SHADOWS FORTRESSArlo watched Jovy giggle at her phone screen. Despite going through so much in the expanse of a month, she looked more relaxed and calm now. It had been really hard to bring her out of her shell. The death of her unborn child and having to deal with an uncaring husband must have taken a huge toll on her. However, Jovy proved that she was and would always be an epitome of strength. She had gone back to her cooking class and tried to be more chatty. Thankfully, Amelia and Alice made it a point of duty to reach out to her and indulge in long conversations with her and that had also aided her healing process faster than expected. Not minding the fact that Logan has chosen to not be any part of her life as Jovy seem to have finally come to terms with the reality of her marriage life."Check this out, Arlo." She said to him, pulling him out of his reverie.Arlo blinked rapidly and tried to smile brightly. “Are you sure this casse
Chapter 107 A dying wish GOLD PACKEvery member of the Brown family and Gold pack looked gloomy with their eyes darting sorrowfully. Nadia sniffed and nodded her head gently as Xavier gripped her hand tightly in consolation. It was barely five weeks ago when she had discussed with Marcel, the longest conversation they have had since he fell sick.Nadia knew he might never recover but she just never thought Marcel would die barely months into his sickness. It saddened her heart knowing her brother was no more. Even though they didn't have the best relationship, she loves him dearly.The burial process had been witnessed by half of the members of Gold Pack and those who couldn't come around watched the live broadcast on their mobiles and televisions. Gold pack isn't much of a large pack but the unity and progressiveness attached to it, is all due to the foundation laid by Marcel's forefathers and himself before his early death.The pack members couldn't resist paying their la
Chapter 108 He has a daughter GOLD PACKNadia sighed as she stuffed her clothes into a traveling bag. She hated packing. She would have called unto one of the maids to help with it but it would be too much of a hassle for her to start instructing whoever she calls on what and what not to pack. She huffed.Nadia sat back down in exhaustion, feeling the need to leave the pack house. She had scheduled a lunch meeting outside the pack to meet up with her daughter and grandchildren. It's the only thing she gets to do aside taking care of her brother who is now dead. It tired Nadia out that despite Marcel's death, she is still saddled with running errands on his behalf.Picking up her car keys, giving her scattered bag one last look and she headed out of the room. Nadia hoped that she would return with a different energy that would prompt her to do the needful. She almost bumped into Xavier on her way out."Aunt.” Xavier mumbled as he held her by the arm. "Are you okay? Where are
Chapter 109 The Slip Off MYSTIC SHADOWS FORTRESSKyrian watched as Logan fussed over the documents on his table, mumbling incoherent words to himself. The moment Logan had arrived looking like a sour ball, Kyrian knew the day would only have to be saved by a miracle to not end up being disastrous."What exactly are you searching for?" He asked.Logan hissed out loud as he facepalmed himself. "I forgot the document for the contract deal we are to have with the Arabian company at home."Kyrian stared at his wristwatch instinctively. They have less than an hour to get the meeting started and one thing about these new partners of theirs; they don't take lateness or clumsiness lightly. Logan kept muttering profanities that weren't so colorful to the ears. Kyrian was surprised at how clumsy he had become all of a sudden."What do you intend to do now?" Kyrian asked."I can't have any of us go back home, knowing when they come around they would like to see the both of us on seat. So
Chapter 110 Point of realization MYSTIC SHADOWS FORTRESS THREE WEEKS LATERJovy sat up on the hospital bed waiting for Arlo to finish up with the paperwork to take her home. She has been trying really hard to hold back the tears threatening to fall, most especially she wouldn’t want Arlo to meet her in such state but they keep coming. Her tears isn't that of sadness but of anger and frustration and the thoughts swirling in her head made her feel dizzy. It had taken her a second shot at death to realize that it was time to get a life and move on from her misery.For three weeks, Logan didn't bother to call or visit her at the hospital despite him being the reason she ended up at the verge of death. His excuse as Jovy had heard from Arlo was that she wasted his time by not sending the file in quickly. So he acting unconcerned about her predicament was his way of punishing her.Before now, whenever Alice, Amelia and Arlo bring up the topic of her leaving Logan, Jovy h
