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 POV: It was a really sneaky thing I did, curving my way out of the Pack house like that. This was something I didn't think for a second that I would be able to do. But there I was, pulling it off like a champ. I even had with me, one of Kian's cars. I took when nobody was looking.Kian made sure I learned how to drive. I was hesitant at first and gave him a hard time, but now I’m happy he had asked me to. There was one thing odd about my relationship with Kian though, he gave me access to all his stuff, but he still didn’t trust me.It felt good to me doing it. Sonia didn't seem to be doing alright. I felt valued that I was the person to call when she did.I barely had friends, mum and dad used to keep me away from people, they made me believe it was because I was different from the others. I felt I wasn’t worth being their friend. Now I know it was because they were ashamed of what they did to me.When I first met Tara, I was excited because she was friendly towards me.

    Kian's POV: I know it was stupid of me to organize dinner, and to force her to sit here with me, instead of apologizing, but I let my pride get the best of me.I had thought of a gesture to perform, in order to make up for what I did to her earlier, but there was nothing I could think of. So I asked the maids for help, and they suggested dinner.When Lessia arrived at the dinner table , I could feel the anger emanating from her. I was surprised she had come, after what I did, but I was glad as well.There was an awkward silence that lingered in the atmosphere, accompanied by the tension that was brewing between us.I wanted to apologize to her so bad, and after that, take her lips in mine and kiss her until she was out of breath. I craved for her even more than the meal that was before us. I wanted so much to bend her over the table, to make her scream, the only time I wanted her to do so. But I just couldn’t make out words to tell her.She grew angrier as time went by, when she coul

    Kian's POV At first, I had been agitated and utterly annoyed about Lessia leaving without telling me. But the more time went by and I still didn’t hear anything from her, my anger was replaced with worry.She had left with my car, that’s why the guards couldn’t stop her, because they thought I was aware. I instantly regretted teaching her how to drive.After I located the tracker I set on the car she had gone along with, I felt scared for her. The tracker pointed out to a deserted road and I sincerely wondered why Lessia would stop at such a place.That was impossible truly that she would alight there to clear her mind, if that was really what she left the house for. I felt worried as I wondered what might have happened to her. She might have had an accident or the car might have broken down with no one to help her take a look at it.Immediately, I got into my car and sped off, taking Williams with me. After what happened the last time in the woods, I supposed I would need assistanc

    Lessia's POV As I opened my eyes gradually, everything seemed blurry. The room was dark, calm and totally quiet, it made me wonder where exactly I was. I only got more and more confused as I sat up, feeling the soft bed beneath me.Last thing I remembered, I was surrounded by a group of men and now I was here on a bed. Did Kian have those men bring me to wherever this was? I wondered as my sight got clearer. If he did, then he sure had a messy sense of humor.Then I felt someone stir beside me and confirmed quickly that this was really Kian's "romantic" way of bringing me back. I was absolutely sure that he was the one because I could feel the mate bond. But the fact that he just laid there, saying nothing seemed a little suspicious."I do not know what you're doing, Kian. But do you think this is funny?" I asked in mild annoyance.But I was replied by the whooshing breeze instead and it really got me thinking what he was up to. Why didn't he say anything to me? I asked almost aloud.

    Kian's POV All attempts aimed at finding Lessia had returned futile and I was getting frustrated. The mere thought of her ever leaving had always had a maddening effect on me and now, she was truly gone. The insanity was on a gradual rampage and my entire being struggled in this difficult fight.“What do you mean you couldn’t find her there?” I thundered at Jacob, who had just returned from the Moonbeam pack, I had sent him to find Lessia.“I’m sorry Alpha, it was a wrong information. Although the woman has a striking resemblance to Miss Lessia. She’s not the one.”A sudden feeling of anger coursed through me, I blamed myself for her disappearance. If I had just apologized to her, maybe she would still be here.The pack house had been so quiet without her presence and I couldn't deny that I missed her dearly. Although she was stubborn most of the time, her aura was that of light and cheerfulness. And coincidentally, the attacks had seized since the day she went missing, which height

I know she’s very important to you and I don’t want anything bad to happen to her. I was only doing all those things for your own good. You seemed to have been distracted by her prese

    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.
