All Chapters of Maeve: The Rise Of The Gamma : Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Maeve POVIt’s been two weeks since I found out about Selene. These past few weeks have been very boring for me. I sleep, eat, and repeat. Ario has been very busy trying to train the warriors, and I am usually with Maya most times. She introduced me to her pup, Lana, and she is a bubbly little thing. I can’t wait to carry my pup in my hand. I see how Maya looks at her, and I want the same for myself. Talking about Ario, he has been busy but always followed me for doctor's appointments; the pup is growing healthy; I am healthy, and now I can’t even hide my pregnancy again. My stomach grew overnight, and it’s so noticeable now.I have been getting a lot of stares. People are curious about our relationship because all they know is that I am the gamma of their pack, and it’s unusual for the alpha and gamma to have any pups together or even a mate. I am not bothered, though; when Ario is ready, he will address it.“How far is it?” I asked Maya. This pup is really stressing on me; I feel tir

Maeve POV“We are here,” Ario said, looking outside the car window. I looked outside, and everything was in ruins. The door opened, and Ario came down, helping me down. I took a deep breath as my feet touched the ground, and I didn’t get any familiar scents. My heart ached as I looked at the pack grounds. This used to be a bubbly place, with pups running around, parents taking a stroll or just going about their day, the beautiful houses—they are all gone. Now the air smells like death; the once-fine buildings have collapsed; some don’t have any roofs. I sighed, holding my tears. This is really just so sad.“Should I tell the warriors to excuse us?” Ario asked in the link, holding my hand.“No, let’s walk around,” I mind link, walking forward, and he followed me quietly. I know this land perfectly; I have lived here all my life, so even if everything is in ruins or if there are enormous stones in the areas, I know where everything was. The pack house, the arena, the supermarket, the bou

Ario POVIt has been a half an hour, and I haven’t gotten tired of watching the wolves. I was mesmerised; I was impressed, and I couldn’t just stop staring at them. They played together, colliding into one another playfully. With the howl in the air, the teenagers were doing really silly things. One male wolf jumped on another male wolf playfully, and he growled at him. Then another male wolf came, bowing for the other wolf he jumped on, and I could tell that was his father. But it all ended in loud wolf laughter as he licked his father’s face, running away. The men laughed together, running after him, and I was just so happy. It really takes a village to raise a child, and that’s what they are doing.“You’ve been watching them for some time now,” I heard a deep voice say, breaking me out of my thoughts. I moved away from the window, looking at Alaric.“They are really fun to look at,” I said, smiling at Eve. Her father did a fantastic job.“How would your pack take this?” he asked.“T

Maeve POV It was around 11 p.m, and everyone was fully settled. There was not much furniture, but Ario already mind link the guards to get bedsheets, thick mattresses, pillows, and clothes for everyone. He didn’t even know if we had any money on us, but he decided to spend so much on my pack. I feel so happy he was that considerate. He even got the omegas to get them different varieties of foods, and they came in large quantities. Now everyone has retired to their rooms, and the once loud pack house is quiet. “I can’t imagine how loud this place would be after everyone fully moves in,” Brandon said as we climbed the stairs, following Ario. We have all freshened up, and Ario is taking us to the study. “Why are we taking stairs when there is an elevator?” Duncan asked. “The study is on the next floor; there is no need to,” Ario said, and Duncan shrugged his shoulders. We got to the floor, and there was an enormous door. The door looks impenetrable. “Why so thick?” I asked, curious.

Maeve POVIt’s been two weeks since the pack came, and we are finally settled. It has been a very busy week, and I hardly see Ario. He comes back when I am asleep and goes before I wake up. He has been busy settling everyone in and buying furniture and other things everyone would need. My pack has been isolated from his; the only people I have seen who are from his pack are Maya and some warriors.I wonder why he doesn’t want his pack to come here. I don’t even know if they know they are here, but obviously they have to know. The door opened, and a stressed-looking Ario came inside, removing his jacket, and then he slumped on the bed with his stomach on the bed. I smiled, dropping the book. I went to him, sitting on his lower back. He groaned, his back cracking.“It’s been a long week, huh?” I said, giving him a neck massage. He breathed out without saying anything.“So, I have been searching for pup names, and I came up with a few,” I said. He hummed.“For girl, I came up with Janice,
