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

    Kian's POV It was clear as daylight that I wasn't going to take William's plan. Even though I was extraordinarily tempted to do as he said, my mind kept taking me back to that time I had done something so similar and I got punished so badly. I knew we still hadn't recovered from it. I didn't want that happening to us us a pack again.And so this time around, I was taking it to the Alpha cabinet as I always should have, a long time ago. I needed to try a little bit of luck, however I could.“You’re in charge while I’m gone, make sure you alert me as soon as you find any useful information about Lessia’s whereabouts, okay?” I said to William, as I made my way to the car.He eyed me for while, like he was contemplating whether or not he should speak.“Contrary to what you think, Kian, I don’t hate Lessia. 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

    Maddox' POV: I wasn't quite sure of what Lessia meant by saying she would make me suffer, but I sure did know that I wasn't going to let her out of my sight again.All these while, I had been punishing her for being my mate because she was a nobody. But seeing her with Kian, made me realize my mistakes.In just a matter of time, he had turned her into a princess, parading her around like he owned her. I wished I was able to see the look on his face when he realized she was gone.That day when he called to ask if I had her, I was certain he knew I did. But there was nothing he could do to back it up. And that made it even more fun.The almighty Kian, becoming helpless and hopeless, because he tried to fight Maddox Slater. Whoever told him he could win against me?As for Lessia, I knew it would take a while for her to accept me, but I wasn’t going to give up.

    Lessia's POV: “Arghhh!” I screamed, my voice echoed through the dimly lit room that was my prison as well as my new home.“Are you alright, miss Lessia?” A guard asked as he stood outside the door of my cell.“Do I look like I’m anywhere near okay?” I rolled my eyes at him.“How can I help ma’am?” He furrowed his brows.“I need to go for a walk, my legs hurt, it feels like it’s been forever since I’ve been locked inside this cell.”“I’m sorry ma’am, I can’t let you out of here, unless the Alpha says so. I hope you understand? However, if you need anything else, please let me know.” He explained before going back to his post.Day two of being abducted by Maddox, and I was still confused on what he wanted. A freaking second day of being caged here and I had not been whipped, neither had I been chained to the walls or bed, and done perverted things to.It didn't look at all to be the nightmare I had once envisioned. It was more of a dream that I had no idea of it ever coming true. But

    Maddox POV: Lessia’s new behavior towards me is both shocking and enthralling. I didn’t know if she was being nice to me because she really wanted to, or if she was doing it for selfish reasons. Either way I was satisfied with whatever she was willing to give to me. It wouldn’t take long for me to win her over.Lisa was right after all, I had taken a wrong approach to my relationship with Lessia the first time. I was so afraid she would see the twisted side of me and not want to be with me, that I didn’t even give her the opportunity to choose whether to love or hate me.I have been spending more time with her lately, getting to know her, and one thing I realized is she doesn’t like being kept in the dark about things. She wants to be involved, it makes her feel wanted and important.Learning that about her gave me an advantage. By making her feel loved, I was certain she would love me in return."I'll be going out today," I said to her as she stood admiring some of the flowers I ha

    Kian’s Pov The air hung heavy with the scent of spilled liquor, as I drowned my sorrows in the bitter embrace of alcohol. I held a bottle of whiskey, I had managed to like, after throwing a couple of other bottles against the wall for not meeting my expectations.Damn it! I have worked so hard over the years, I should have enough money to get good whiskey, why do you keep bringing these subpar ones to me?” I yelled to no one in particular.The atmosphere was filled with sound of glasses meeting their demise against the wall. Lessia’s departure left a void, a void I was trying to fill with the numbing burn of whiskeyIt was probably not the whiskey that had issues, but me, I had become irritable after the disappearance of Lessia. William wasn’t helping out either, he refused to understand why I needed to get her back as soon as possible.I didn’t know if this was because he hadn’t found his mate yet. He often saw relationships as a distraction, and would rather be with someone other

    Maddox' POV: I was sitting in my office with the windows and doors closed. The only bit of light that reached my eyes were the rays that strayed through the curtains, sipping through like leaking water. Soon I heard a beep from my phone.I has first thought it was just any other beep from the countless messages from service providers, that usually came with no use to me, so I ignored. But then, I heard another beep go off once more. At this point, my curiosity was already riled up.I looked Into the screen and saw that it wasn't from a network service provider, but rather it was from my bank. It seemed to be a sort alert.Did someone pay tributes today? I asked in my mind. I had no idea of anyone of my subjects that might have been owing me so I checked.What I saw as I opened the phone was enough to have me checking another time and ascertaining on whether or not I was having an issue with my eyes that disabled me from counting numbers effectively.I would have reached out for my g

    Kian’s POV The time was heading to 6 o'clock. I was waiting patiently for it in the my office, my gaze dancing between my computer and the wall clock, looking for which to rest my stare on.William sauntered into my office a while later, giving me a questioning look.“You always say your mind, whether I am in support of it or not. So if you have something to say to me, go ahead and say it.” I scoffed.“Why don’t you just stage a kidnap the “way Maddox did?”“Because I’m not him.” I retorted. “Besides I’m working on a better way to get Lessia back.”“Like laundering all Maddox money to the rogues? What if he returns the Favour? Our pack is already suffering from too many attacks. If our finance is attacked, our people will suffer a great deal.” He intoned.“What do you want me to do, William? Every second she spends there makes my blood boil. Knowing that she’s with that sadistic bastard and I can’t do anything about it. He could literally be hitting her as we speak.” I ran my finger

    Kian's POV: “Are you sure this is a good idea?” William asked as he kept pacing around my room.“Of course it is. Maddox cannot harm a guest he allowed into his pack, if he does, he will be summoned to the Alpha’s cabinet and punished for it.”“What if he says he was defending himself?” William inquired. I could tell he was already judging my actions before I even took them.“Defending himself from someone who didn’t harm him? Come on William, you should know better than that.”“All I’m saying is, it is not the smartest idea to walk into the enemy’s pack, just because he granted you entry. Did he say ensure your safety as well?”“No, he did not.” I shook my head.“Exactly my point.”“I will be fine, William. Do ensure that take care of things here. Also, get back to me on the active mission.” I patted his back, while I made my way to the car.“Alright Lessia, I’m coming to get you.” I mumbled as I drove away from my pack.***I arrived just as I had planned, to Maddox' Pack house.

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.

    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.
