Lessia’s Pov I woke up to the blazing light of the sun, shimmering through the curtains into the room.My tear stained cheeks indicated that I had fallen asleep while crying. I stifled a yawn before turning towards Kian’s direction. I realized he had woken up.A new wave of emotions surged through me as my eyes met his. Tears began to fall like waterworks, tears filled with anger and fear. Fear that I almost lost him, and anger for being careless that almost led to his death.If only I spent more time getting to know him rather than always trying to get on his nerves, I would have known about his allergies.He reached for my face with his thumb and wiped away the tears, my heart fluttered due to his gesture. Even though I had almost killed him, he still cared for me.“What happened to me?” He asked softly.“I’m so sorry, Kian,” I said lowly, as I couldn’t hold back the tears anymore. “I’m so sorry for what happened to you. I was so scared, I…I thought you weren’t going to make it. Th

Lessia’s Pov I know he waited expectantly for me to say the words back, but instead, my words hung in the air like a pandemic being avoided because of its lethality.The excitement I once felt, was replaced with a new feeling of sadness. I was shocked at Kian for saying those words out loud, because I didn’t want to feel pressured, but I guessed they had come out spontaneously, and now I felt bad because pressure was exactly what I felt and I didn’t know what to say to him.Did Kian really just admit his feelings for me? Did he truly love me? Or was he just pulling my legs?A sudden wave of insecurity blew past me. Kian’s food I had in my mouth while feeding him didn’t taste good anymore, my stomach churned as bile rose to my throat. It was true that I was still skeptical about trusting Kian, but at least I was giving it a try, unlike him who seemed to enjoy playing with my feelings.Our long moment of silence was broken by a creaking sound of the door opening, which indicated that a

Kian’s PovFew hours before the incident. The room was illuminated with the light of the sun, I realized it was dawn already, because I could hear the sound of birds chirping also. Something I’ve always loved.I placed my hands on the bed searching for Lessia, but the bed was empty, which forced me to open my eyes, and I saw that she was indeed gone.I hated this habit of hers, I intended to talk to her about it. She didn’t need to leave very early in the morning after each night we sleep together.I groaned as I stifled a yawn. It was a new day, and I still hadn’t found a breakthrough with the rogues attack.William was supposed to give me a feedback on his recent investigation.I already decided what my day would look like, I would meet up with William to discuss about his latest discoveries and meet with Lessia later. I suddenly felt the need to spend more time with her.I hurriedly put on my clothes, and settled for a very simple attire; a black jeans, paired with a white shirt a

Kian's POV The loud silence wasn't enough to hush up what I felt about her reaction to my words. Even as I drove back home, I couldn't help but mock myself within me, how I had showed my feelings, and come clean to her, only for her to act like I hadn't said anything—like all I had been doing wasn't love, at all.“What did she think we were?” I asked myself wantonly. Everything we’ve been doing portrayed love. The intimacy, the care, the attention, even our fights were mostly because we cared about each other.I mean she slept in my bed, we made love, I had shown her every side of me. My weaknesses, I told her about my most vulnerable moments, what did she think all those were for? My mind was going haywire thinking about the way Lessia had stylishly rejected me. Because that was what it was, a rejection.I was beginning to regret it all. Confessing my feelings to her. I should have just continued to act like a friend to her, rather than impose anything on her. I wished it were poss

Lessia's POV I absolutely did not know how to react to what Kian had said. For a moment there, I was in a daze. I almost couldn't believe my own ears. Of course, I had been longing to hear those words from him and now that he had finally confessed how he felt about me, I had no idea how to respond to him even if I was happy, of course.I never thought anyone could love someone like me, Maddox made me believe that no one was capable of loving me. Perhaps that’s one of the reasons I endured everything he did, until I couldn’t take it anymore.When I met Kian at first, I was afraid that he didn’t genuinely care for me and only ensured my wellbeing because he wanted me to be healthy enough to be his sex slave, but when he continued to remain like that, I couldn’t stop myself from falling in love with him.I had loved him for the longest time, but didn’t have the courage to tell him, because deep down, there was a thought of how he was near perfect and someone like me was undeserving of

Lessia's POV The bed felt almost empty, as I woke up to the expansive bed sheet where my body laid, almost naked, because there was not a soul I was sharing the bed with.Kian, I thought to myself, getting up quickly, but still yet, with a little sluggishness due to the fact that I was still sleepy. He wasn't there, and I wanted so much that after the event of last night, I would wake up holding into his warm body pressed against mine. But that wasn't to be, I guess. It should have been common sense to me now that we usually don't get what we want when we want them.I didn't let them bother me as much, to stop me from taking my bath or doing the needful. I jolted up from the bed with a sudden burst of energy. Wherever Kian was, I was sure he wouldn't like me to go meet him all sweaty and dirty.I took of my my clothes and rushed to the bathroom to go take my bath.While in the shower, I reminisced on the recent events that had been happening. When I thought Kian was going to die, als

Kian's POV: My eyes were still sleep filled when I heard a buzzing sound go off somewhere around me. I hated alarms, they never give me the urge to wake, rather, they make me want to throw them away and continue sleeping.But as an Alpha, you need to be organized. And alarms are needed for that.I opened my eyes reluctantly, and glanced at the wall clock. It wasn’t yet time for the alarm to go off. So I searched around wondering where the sound was coming from. Lessia was right there on my chest, sleeping peacefully and I didn't want to wake her up. I moved her head off my chest and unto the pillow as gently as I could and rolled to the edge of the bed, only to discover that the sound was coming from my phone, on the floor.It must have fallen off my trouser earlier, I thought. The screen beamed brightly as I stretched to pick it up. I squinted hard as I looked at the screen attentively, trying to read the message I saw on the screen. The short message, written in capital letter read

Lessia's POV My eyes felt sore as I woke up to the setting sun shooting its orange light at my eyes through the window. I turned around to look at the clock and realized, for all the time I thought I had been asleep, it was only evening. I sighed and drowned myself just one more time in the pillow, before getting up to the usual day's schedule.I went directly to the kitchen because my throat felt dry. While in the middle of getting water, a maid approached me.Even though Kian had given me my personal maids, I still wasn’t used to the idea of it. There were times I felt startled whenever they approached me."Good evening, Lady Lessia," she started shyly."Alpha Kian gave me instructions to inform you to meet him at the garden once you're awake."“Kian asked you to tell me to meet him at the garden?” I repeated, just to be sure.“Yes, lady Lessia.” She replied smiling.“Couldn’t he have just asked me himself? Why did he need to bother you with it?”“Alpha said you were asleep and he

Lessia's POVFive Years Later… “Mummy, we’re waiting, hurry up!” I heard Raphael call out to me.“I’ll be down in a minute.” I yelled back, as I tried to apply the finishing touches to my make up.It was the boys birthday, Raphael had been overly excited about it. He asked for so many things for his birthday, he was looking forward to seeing his wishes being granted.Leo on the other hand, didn’t say much about what he wanted his birthday, well asides from reminding us that he hated chocolate cakes and wouldn’t attend the party if he sees any present. So I made a mental note to not add chocolates to the list of desserts.Kian and I planned the whole celebration by ourselves. After Williams betrayal, five years ago, we still found it difficult to trust people. We made good friendships with some of the parents of our children friends, but it was centered on the kids. We still kept our healthy boundaries.After I gave birth to the twins, Kian became even more overprotective. He didn’t

Lessia's POV: The room was growing darker, as it seemed that light was sipping away in every second as I pushed. I could feel every bit of energy I had in me slipping away.I struggled to steady by breaths, but I kept panting, even though the nurses assured me everything would be fine, I was still afraid for my child and myself.“Arghhh!” I screamed loudly as I felt another sharp pain.“Luna, just hold on tight, you’d be fine, you know your babies are two, so this will take a while, I need you to be strong for them.” The doctor said encouraging me, but her words could only do so little for me.“Arghhhh!” I screamed again. “I don’t think I can do this, I can’t anymore, please make it stop.” I yelled once more as the tears began to stream down my eyes.I had never felt this kind of pain before, it was so unbearable, like there was a machine inside of me constantly squeezing my insides. I want it to stop so bad.“Luna, I’m going to change your position, okay? The nurse will hold you an

Lessia's POV As I walked out of the building, the feeling of fulfillment and satisfaction engulfed my being. I could smell the disdainful surprise on that saucy receptionist as I walked past him. I could tell he did not expect to see me beautifully dressed in the level of confidence I waxed in as I left. It was so obvious he expected to see a broken and downcast woman different from the one that had walked in just moments earlier. That only heightened my pride and the self fulfillment I was already acquainted with.I knew they were all shocked to see me representing kian, because according to their Logic, women shouldn’t be involved in politics. However, I had learnt so much from Kian in so little time.The fact that he didn’t turn me down whenever I asked him about politics made me happy and important. When I was still with Maddox, he often treated me like it was a crime to have knowledge of politics. Whenever he was handling a matter and I wanted to be involved, he would tell me h

Lessia's POV: There I was at the so called Alpha Cabinet once more. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't keep the thoughts of what they tried to do to me and Kian before, out of my head. The walls of the building steadily resounded the voices, words and fingers of suspicion and accusations they pointed at us that day.I could still remember their faces in the blurry edge of my mind. I could still remember everything.But I was prepared that whatever I was going to be thrown at, I would be sure to defend myself in anyway and give it back to them in full force."Hello, I have an appointment with the Cabinet, I am to meet them in the chamber room" I said to the receptionist that mounted the entrance.There had been a change in location due to an incident that happened recently, so I wanted to be sure I was in the right place.Honestly, I preferred the new location, as it was closer to Kian’s pack. That way I felt safer, even though no where was 100% safe.I noticed the receptionist w

Lessia’s Pov Seeing Kian’s unconscious body lying on the floor filled me with so much adrenaline that I didn’t know when I stood up and started screaming for help.Kian’s body was lying besides Williams body, which gave me a nostalgic feeling once more, about how hospitals reek of the smell of blood and death.“Help, somebody please help us!” I screamed again, my voice echoing in the room. Soon, some nurses came running into the room. “Please the Alpha has been shot, I need you to help him immediately,” I yelled.They came back with a stretcher to take Kian, while I followed behind, until we got to a room where he was being attended to.“Luna, you have to wait here, while we attend to him.” A nurse said. I wanted to insist on going into the room with him, but that would only delay his treatment. So I sat patiently and let them do their jobs.While I was waiting for Kian, some of the pack soldiers arrived. The hospital must have alerted them, I thought.The leader approached me with

Kian’s Pov The confrontation with Williams continued. I couldn’t believe he had been the one responsible for all our misfortunes. I was shocked, to say the least, that all these while I had been so gullible to trust the enemy.It all made sense now, why he never trusted Lessia, how easy it was for Maddox to get into my pack to kidnap Lessia. He was the one who poisoned her and told Sonia about my allergies, so she could kill me as well. If they had succeeded, Lessia would have been helpless, I’m sure he would have sent her back to Maddox, to continue to be his sex slave.“You are beyond delusional, Williams, why would you think I would never fall in love and have my own family? Why would you think I would never find my own mate?”He looked at me in a standoffish manner, and soon burst into a fit of laughter.“Can you hear yourself, Kian? Before Lessia, how many people looked your way, huh? How many women actually there themselves at you? No one, Kian. No one. And you know why?” He c

Kian's POV “You can’t possibly me sure that Williams is the one responsible for your misfortunes.” Jason suggested, but I knew he was only playing kind games.“Tell me, you bastard. Did you make this all up just to distract me from the truth? Did you?” I questioned, baring my fangs into his skin, as blood slowly oozed out.“Why would I make this up, Kian? Of what benefit would it be to me? Besides I didn’t tell you it was Williams, you figured that yourself. Which is a huge breakthrough for you, as you’ve failed to do in the past years.”Jason’s words pricked me. All these while, I had been living with the enemy, eating and drinking with the enemy, telling all of my problems to the enemy.How naive could I be? How ignorant could I be? I chided myself. No wonder Maddox thought me to be a fool, he had been communicating with my Beta all along, right under my nose. That was why he was able to reach Lessia and even Kidnap her.Williams and Lessia. These were the only words that appeared

Kian's POV: Where I intended to begin my investigations was none other than Maddox's Pack house, which was now mine by virtue of conquering and Annexation. I knew that if there ever were a secret agent amongst us, that person would be in affiliations with Maddox.I had some friends in the packs close to his, so I sought for their help. Although, Maddox was a man of many secrets, I was hopeful we would find out something, he surely didn’t take them to his grave.I began to doubt Maddox’s death. We were informed he was dead, but no one ever saw his body, no one was invited to his funeral. Was he even buried? I had no idea. My friends didn’t as well.However, if he were alive, he wouldn’t be working alone. Even if he succeeded in infiltrating my pack, which I knew there was no way that would be the case. Someone had to have been feeding Maddox information, and there was no way it could have been Lessia. That was a main reason I couldn't take William's words as law. He was right for me

Kian's POV: I couldn't count the number of times Williams had told me not to worry on that day.How could one be so relaxed after finding out their mate was poisoned and almost lost their children in the process? Only a man like Williams would suggest that to you.Sometimes I wondered if this man felt things that normal people did. Because there was no way someone who had feelings would say that to me.“Are you saying this because you still don’t like Lessia?” I questioned him as he voiced my gaze.“I have nothing against the Luna, Kian. She’s your mate and the mother of the future heirs to the pack. What could I possibly have against her?”There was sincerity in his words. He had no reason to still dislike Lessia, maybe I was the one reading meaning I shouldn’t to his advice. I had always know Williams to be like that, so there was no need expecting him to be different when it came to Lessia.“You don’t understand, Williams. Someone is out to kill Lessia. First, she was being follo
