I was woken by Sonia's cry, and sat up. Marcus also awoke and stared at her. "Good morning,""Good morning, my love," he said giving me a peck on my lips. I fed Sonia and danced with her on my hand until she fell asleep. Then I was about to lie my head to sleep, but Marcus held me back. "I am tired," I complained. "Can't it wait till we wake?" He looked at baby Sonia, who was asleep, then shook his head. "Your father would be here today," I shook my head looking at him. Did he understand what he was saying? My father will be leaving with his wife today. "Do you mean Alpha Damon?" He nodded his head and I told me to call him Mr. Damon from now on. "His pack has been seized so he is no longer the Alpha," My eyes cleared, and I asked if he wasn't ruling over the territory. "No," he replied. "I can't make someone who is old rule over my territory." He had a point. Unlike Jason, whom he could easily allow to submit, Alpha Damon was surely going to stand against him. "Alright,

It was evening, and neither of our warriors was back with news about the murderers, so I decided to go to the kitchen, where I saw two ladies arguing. I love to see people arguing, but I hated it when such an argument led to a fight, so I stood by the door watching them. When the argument became heated, out of anger, a lady slapped the other making everyone stop what they were doing. Among those who stopped what they were doing, a woman looked at me, and my presence was announced. This made the ladies who had resorted to assaulting themselves stop. "Luna Susan," I smiled when I saw them looking at me. "I see nothing wrong in arguing, but assaulting one another is wrong," They all looked at one another, and one of them got down to her knees. "I'm sorry, Luna," she said. However, the lady who was the first to attack behaved arrogantly and didn't move even when she was forced to get on her knees. "What's wrong?" I asked her. "I see no reason to kneel to you," she said, flingin

"I suggest that you also get the people who raped his daughter," I didn't only plan to get justice for the man, but also for his daughter. Collins whispered into my ear asking if I had a picture of the man's daughter, and I responded negatively. He took one of the pictures and told the men to wait while he got the lady's pictures. I followed him to a room where he scanned the man's picture, and many pictures were displayed on the system. In most of the pictures, he was with a beautiful lady. "Can she be his daughter?" Collins shrugged and decided to check the man's tag. We got to know that the lady was his daughter so we printed copies of a picture where they were together. After giving them the pictures, they left and I sighed. I walked slowly, and by the time I got to where Marcus was, I saw him speaking with Collins while holding Sonia, who was asleep. He stretched out his hand to me when he sensed my presence. "Let me carry her," He handed me Sonia then left with Collins

My parents were invited, and their employers agreed to give them some days off work. They were the first that I saw while getting out of the room this morning. "Mother," I called walking to my mother who stretched her hand for a hug. I also greeted my father who touched my head. I looked around to catch a glimpse of Marcus but I didn't. "Are you looking for someone?" I shook my head and told her that we should take our seats. "Alright," Mother asked me how I was feeling, and I told her that I was feeling fine. "I'm so happy for you," she said. "You are still strong though you lost a child." This made me bite my lip as I looked at the lady to whom I gave Sonia. "Can we see the child who is living?" I nodded then called the lady to bring Sonia to us. "It's such a pity that I am not your real grandmother," my mother said, surprising me, and I reminded her that she had taken care of me since I was young. "I may not know if my real mother still thinks about me, but for my child

They had all heard about what happened to us so they welcomed me. I walked to Marcus, who was seated, and the first question he asked me was, "Who are you?" "I am Susan Owen?" "My parents didn't have a daughter, nor do I have a cousin with the name, Susan," He got up and stared into my eyes then at the baby I was carrying. Looking at the guards, he said, "Send her away." No one moved, and I held his face to myself. "Take," Holding the wrapped body, he stared at me. "Who is this, and why is he cold?" I didn't respond, and held back my tears then Marcus opened the head covering. Seeing this, he looked at me and then touched my stomach. "Susan," We hugged, and he gave me a peck. "You've buried his sister?" Shaking my head, I pointed to Michelle. "That's our child," The dead child was collected from him, and I laid my head on his chest as I wept. "Susan," Madam Owen called, and I hugged her immediately. We held a little ceremony for the child as we buried him then Marc

We walked some distance with Maria, and I asked if she knew where Nathan was. After asking a nurse, she pointed to a place we later went to. "You can't enter," the doctor said, and I looked at Nathan, who was on the bed. Luckily, his child was saved, but I still wondered how Marcus left for the pack house. Then I saw a patient who was being guarded as she walked. I looked at her face thinking it was Nathan's wife, but she wasn't. "Take your seat, Susan," Maria said making me sit on the close bench. I felt anxious and held Michelle's hand while she wiped the little tears that had formed on my face. "Do you think he had anything to do with this accident?" "Who?" She asked. "Marcus," The only thing I could think of at this time is that Marcus had a hand in this; instead, he wouldn't have taken their son with him. "What are you saying, Luna?" I shook my head and told her to think about it. "We were told that someone took him to Elite pack," Tears rushed from my eyes as I did

Morgan POV I remembered the picture that I held the last day. Rivers was Theresa's brother. "You are awake," Tricia said. I smiled and gave her a peck on her forehead. My gaze went to Ethan's bed. "Our son is soundly asleep," I said. She laughed and told me how she had to keep Ethan down last night. "He is becoming more stubborn," she said. "Then I will take care of it," I said. I walked to Ethan when I sensed that he was awake. "Ethan, you are to take your bath now," He used his legs to hit my hand and smiled looking at his mother. Tricia smiled when she saw what Ethan did. I raised him to my arms and he struggled to get free. "Here we are," I said as I placed him in the bathtub. We played a little before I had his bath. "Today, I want to take us out for a fun time," I said as I walked out of the bathroom with Ethan. "Should we take our bath together?" Tricia asked. I didn't expect her to say that so I was a bit surprised. "We can't," I said thinking of how it wo

Morgan POV Two months had passed, and it was the day for Rivers's burial. He died a month ago. We all wore black as we stood by his grave. "Rivers, my brother, I remembered how you were," I said. Tricia stood beside me and held a flower. Drake and Theresa had come from their college to grace this occasion. He stepped forward with a flower and placed it on the grave. Tricia supported me but I couldn't help but feel angry. Why didn't he tell us what was happening to him? If it wasn't for Drake, we wouldn't have known about his issues. I held onto Tricia as I watched others walk to keep their flowers on Rivers grave. As the boss, my wife and I were to go last. We walked towards the grave to drop our flowers when they were done. I suggested that we should celebrate Rivers life in a restaurant. They accepted, and we left for a nearby restaurant. Our time of mourning was over, Rivers had been buried and now, life moves on. "Good morning," I heard a lady's voice while we were in

Tricia POV I chose to be stubborn even though Ethan's cry filled my heart. "Ethan, go to your father," I said. Morgan looked at Ethan, who held onto his leg. I could see him smiling and this gave me confidence to walk to him. Before I could say a word, Morgan slapped me. I felt extremely sad and my cheek stung. I looked around and saw people staring at us. This broke my heart and I left with Ethan. Entering the car, I told my driver to move. Maybe I was stupid when he slapped me. I stood there and looked angrily at him instead of pulling my gun on him. This idea made me smile. We got up and I walked up with Ethan, ignoring Felicia's call. In the room, I placed my phone on the side table while Ethan walked to his bed. Looking at my phone, I saw two missed calls and one voice message, they were all from Morgan. Taking a deep breath, I clicked on the voice message. In it, he pleaded with me and said that he would search for Cherry when his mood gets lighter. "Don't plead

Tricia POV I waited for Felicia to be done with whatever she was doing before I called my driver. "You didn't need to wait for me," she said. I told her that since it was our first day to come together, I chose to leave with her. "Alright," she said and brought out her phone. She asked if we could take her to the house she lived in with her husband. "What would you like to take there?" I asked. "A lot, just don't worry," she said. Soon, the car arrived and we got in and sat like sisters. Felicia directed us on our movement. "Stop!" She said when we got to a gate. I wanted to come with her into the house but she declined. Five minutes later, I got worried as I didn't see her come out so I decided to go in. "I will be back soon," I said to the driver. "Should I accompany you?" He asked. I remembered what Morgan told me about my driver but no, I couldn't allow him in. "No, don't worry," I said to him. This could scare Felicia. I felt safe as I was with my gun and could

Tricia POV Miranda greeted Felicia but didn't take her eyes off her. Soon, the day was clear, and Morgan decided to get Felicia a few things. Felicia behaved awkwardly, but I guessed she wasn't used to being treated the way we did. The doorbell rang, and I saw Felicia shake. "Felicia!" I called. "Don't be scared. I walked to open the door as it seemed like the person was an outsider. It was a delivery man. He asked if I was Felicia or Mrs. Bliss and later gave me a package. "Mr. Bliss told me to deliver this to Felicia Bliss," he said after I signed and then left. I called Felicia and asked her to check it out. "Who is it from?" She asked. "Morgan," I said. Felicia opened the box and looked through everything. "Where is Morgan?" She asked. "I do not know," I said. As soon as those words left my mouth, the door flew open and Morgan stepped in. "Thank you, Morgan," Felicia said. I asked him where he was but he ignored by going out. It's been long since he last ignored

Tricia POV While we were in the restaurant, I held Felicia's hand. "What are you doing, Mrs. Bliss?" She asked me. "Quit the formality," I said. "Call her sister-in-law," Morgan said making me blush. "But I am not...," she was saying. I placed a hand on her lips as I knew what she wanted to say. She might not be related to Morgan by blood, but they had a bond when they were young. I wanted to feel like I knew someone from Morgan's family. We left the restaurant when we were done eating. Miguel drove to the group's house and I wondered why he did that. "Hold on," we said to Felicia as we got out of the car. Morgan advised that I locked all the doors for the safety of Felicia. She wasn't a member of the group so there was no need for her to come along with us. Getting into the car, I saw Felicia's head buried in her lap. It felt like she was weeping. "Felicia!" I called. Morgan turned back and looked at us. "You should let her be," he said. "She is going t
