RAVEN POV With time, I recovered fully. My stomach on the other hand got bigger by the day, and I didn't think for a moment that it would stop because, from the look of things, there was more to come. Another Monday morning arrived. This was the point when I got out of bed so that I could take my bath and be ready for work. There was not much difference in my body and somehow, I seemed to like this more than the other. Despite the size.It was still Rune's fault, wasn't it? Why can't I leave him out of my thoughts? Anger was the right word for how I felt when I snatched the towel from the bed and walked into the bathroom for my bath. Soon enough, I was standing in front of a mirror - wondering what outfit exactly was good to use for the purpose of my work on this day. A smile came alive on my face when I figured it out. I didn't stop smiling for one moment, but caught up with the wardrobe, opened it, and caught sight of the outfit I needed to look for. How ready was I to be t
RAVEN POV “Isn't it late at night to be here?” Opening the door, there was Aella in my apartment. “Come on in. I'm sure you're cold.” I mouthed as I opened the door even wider, watching her walk into the space with a smile that was evergreen on her face. “Good evening, my lady.” I shut the door. Turned around and caught up with the couch she was seated on. “Not so fast. Is everything okay over there at the pack? Why are you here? You keep scaring me so much and I don't think I like it.” “My lady,” she looked at me. “There is nothing wrong if you must know. I just came to spend some time with you. I haven't done that since the operation for all that I can recall. How are you doing?” Relieved, I heaved a sigh. And just then, her eyes reached my stomach. “My goodness. It's bigger than I thought it'd be!” Crying, she adjusted on the chair, dropping her purse on the floor. “You look good on it too. You are still as beautiful as always if you know what I mean.” “I don't feel bet

Raven's POVIt was night in a few hours, I laid on my back on the bed struggling to close my eyes but sleep was a stranger. I felt sweaty despite the cold air, having to take my bath several times, making sure every door was locked, opening the curtains at intervals to check for any shadows.“ Raven, you are not sleeping?!” His voice tore me down as he knocked on the door, I flashed my eyebrows trying, putting my lips together not to talk, he was supposed to go home.“You didn't go back to your pack?!” my mind felt settled while hearing his voice. “I’d to get you some guards and I can't go back because it's already late, you know the estate gates would be locked. Aella and the maids will be coming tomorrow to help with things. Can I stay in the guest room?” He talked like he was in a hurry or needed to protect me more, I was happy.“Yes, you can stay there.” I stood up to open the door and show him even though I knew he could find his way there.“Don't worry about that, I can find my
Lila’s POVThe morning sun poured into my room like liquid gold, but I didn't feel the warmth.I sat upright in bed, still wrapped in silk sheets, clutching the edge of the mattress with my nails digging deep. My eyes darted around the room, painted in soft cream with pale blue colors, the exact colors Raven once loved.The scent of rose and cedarwood came from the diffuser beside my bed, her favorite. I had bought it the moment she left the pack.I was making sure I recreated her life, the life she abandoned, she has to regret leaving the pack.However, despite recreating her style, till it became a part of me, something wasn't still enough, what was lacking?!What could it be?! I looked around, falling back to the bed, recurring to yesterday's visit.The fruit I got for her, I got mine too, that damn basket reminded me of the way her eyes cursed my very present.She opened the door like she wasn't scared of anything, maybe it was the man with her that made her have that domineer, sh
Raven’s POVThe envelope sat on the kitchen counter like a ticking bomb. Its gold seal caught the morning sun, glinting like the judgment it carried. I stared at it for a long moment, my breathing pattern slow. My wolf shifted inside me, with speed and low growls, I sipped on my tea.My fingers trembled as I broke the seal.I pulled the letter out. The official Alpha Council crest stared back at me, the script elegant, written in cold words.‘You are hereby summoned for formal inquiry regarding accusations of Luna abandonment, mate bond fraud, and questionable affiliations with Alpha-ranked males outside your declared bond.’My heart raced, making my knees buckle turning white, as I gripped the edge of the kitchen, stopping myself from collapsing.I held the counter edge of the cupboard to keep my feet rooted to the ground. My vision blurred for a second. I blinked until the words became clearer.The accusations were claiming I used the bond to manipulate Rune. That I walked away. Tha
