Mallory's POV.I nervously sat in the back seat of the black SUV as Alpha Benson drove his car into the beautiful residence and parked it. "Where are we?" I asked him, picking my words carefully as I knew that he was angry with me after he had seen me chatting with Kelvin Johnson. Kelvin was a nice guy, and he didn’t make me feel so uncomfortable as Alpha Benson did. But I lost my trust in men after Ace had rejected me. I could feel the scrutiny of the young girl who sat next to me in the back seat of the car. She looked at me throughout the drive, and I recalled Eunice had told me that Alpha Benson was once mated like me and he had rejected his former mate. "Hi," I spoke to the little girl, since Alpha Benson didn’t reply to my question. But the little girl looked away and narrowed her eyes at me with a slight warning to stay away from her father. She didn’t say a word, and she didn’t look friendly, but I was quiet as Alpha Benson parked his car and automatically unlocked t
Alpha Benson's POV:Walking up to the farmhouse, Madam Paulina immediately came out of the house to welcome me."Welcome, Alpha," she said with a bow of her head."Thank you. I was aware that my mother was here today," I told Madam Paulina as I held Celine's hand."Yes, Alpha. Luna Nova came here and requested to take Mallory away. But we told her that, except with your order, Mallory is not allowed to leave the farmhouse," Madam Paulina replied with a bow of her head."I see. Where is she? Summon Mallory for me," I said, and Madam Paulina nodded. I stood at the front of the farmhouse and waited for her to send for Mallory."Daddy!" Celine giggled and ran about in front of the farmhouse."Careful, Celine," I said to my daughter as I smiled at her. She loved to play a lot and doesn't understand what is going on between me and her mother. I do not want my daughter to become unhappy, but I cannot take Emma back.Titus walked up to meet me, and he greeted me with a bow, "Welcome, Alpha."
Alpha Benson POV:I was unable to focus on my office work, especially after Dennis had informed me that my mother had come to the pack's farm in search of Mallory to take her home.After I ended the mindlink with Kelvin, my mother had driven her car to the company to see me. She came to my office and yelled that we had to organize a new coronation festival and send out invitations to crown Emma as my Luna."Mom, I do not have time for this. And what exactly did you go to the farmhouse to do? For the record, you haven't visited there to know how the farm operates. So what took you there?" I queried my mother in my office, and she glared at me."Benson, I am your mother, and you cannot look down on me or use your alpha power to command me to speak. I want Mallory taken away from this pack, but you refused. Since you do not want her to leave, then we cannot wait for eight complete months for her to welcome the bastard that she is carrying in her womb. I will discuss it with your father t
Mallory's POV:After I finished having my breakfast, which was a delicious plate of rice and chicken stew - something I hadn't eaten in a while, except for when I was in the pack's hospital."Wow, Selena. How come we now have good food to eat?" I asked my wolf, as for the last few days that I had been living with them in this farmhouse, we were given the worst food to eat, and it was not enough to fill my stomach."I do not know, Mallory. I assume maybe it was because of you," Selena replied."Me? I doubt. Alpha Benson doesn't like me, so how can he make changes to the food here? I doubt," I said, as I was in my room on the top floor, having my meal.Since I was done with my work for the day, and we were given breakfast to eat at noon, I went back to my room on the second floor with my own plate of rice, and I didn't want to stay with the rest of the farm workers. I desired to have my own privacy, and that meant staying on my own. I knew that the majority of them didn't like me, and
"Speak!" Alpha Bruce yelled as he tightened his grip around Dr. Chosen's neck."I will count to three. If you do not tell me the truth, I will kill you, your sons, daughters, and also, Sonia. I will count," Alpha Bruce threatened, and Dr. Chosen's eyes widened in shock.Dr. Chosen was above 65 years old. He begged, "Forgive me, Alpha. It was Sonia's idea. She asked me to kill Comfort and to make Mallory unable to shift and a weakling.""What!" Everyone in the hall gasped, but Alpha Bruce pushed Dr. Chosen's neck away to the floor and glared at his wife."Guards!" He ordered, his voice loud enough to raise the roof."Take Dr. Chosen and Lily to the dungeon. They shall be dealt with and flogged to death," Alpha Bruce stated, his voice cold and his heart thumping with deep regret."No, Alpha. You cannot order for my execution. Please, forgive me," Luna Lily cried as she crawled up to beg Alpha Bruce. But the guards chained her hands and grabbed her away.Sonia was so shocked and at the s
Alpha Benson's POV:As I continued working in my office, Beta Dennis reached out to me and reported, "Alpha, Titus from the pack's farmhouse reached out to me and informed me that your mother came there to request for Mallory to follow her.""Mm..." I frowned and paused the document that I was reading on my laptop screen."Did Titus allow my mother to take Mallory away?""No, Alpha. He did not," Dennis said, and I replied, "It's alright. Go on with your work.""Okay, Alpha." Dennis ended the mindlink, and I thought about Mallory for a moment.I could have taken her away from the farmhouse, but she was pregnant with another man's child, and I cannot stand seeing her with that pregnancy at the moment. I reasoned that it was best for Mallory to remain at the pack farmhouse.I continued with the rest of my work for the day and decided to go and see Mallory later when I was done with my tasks.***In the Bright Moon's Pack, Alpha Bruce Adonis was enraged after he had returned from the Cres
Alpha Benson's POV:It was a bright morning when I awoke in my room and prepared to leave for my company.I recalled the previous night's event of Emma coming to my room to seduce me. 'How can she expect me to take her back after finding a new mate?' I pondered and went to my bathroom to have my bath.As I got out of the bathroom and set to leave for work, a knock on my door interrupted my dressing."Who is there?" I asked with a calm voice and heard my daughter's response, "It's me."Celine has not been able to say many words, but she was a fast learner as an Alpha.I moved over to the door to pull it open and welcome my daughter into my room.Celine wore a white nightdress and she had not taken her bath."How are you, Celine?" I asked her, and she smiled, entering my room."I'm fine," she shyly replied and moved over to the bed to sit.I went to pick up my suit and wear it. As I turned to leave the room, I peered at my pretty daughter's face."Celine, Dad will soon be leaving for wo
Mallory's POVKelvin and two other guys chuckled at me. Then he said, "It's a harmless bath in the stream near us. And it's not like we're going to do anything intimate. The women and men have their baths there. It's fun."I looked at Kelvin's face and pondered, 'What if Alpha Benson caught me with him? Well, it's not like he had accepted our mate's bond. Or has he?'Selena growled in my head, "Do not listen to them, Mallory. We should find Eunice and go and have our breakfast. I am so hungry."I looked at Kelvin and his friends' faces, seeing them all wearing black shorts with their masculine chests fully exposed."Um," I gulped, my cheeks flushed. "I am sorry. Maybe next time I will join you guys. But I do not bath with men. Take care."I quickly turned around and ran out of the barn. I could hear one of the men say to Kelvin, "She is so beautiful, Kelvin. Do you think she will accept to date you? You are a Delta wolf, and what can you provide for her as she is an Alpha?""Relax, gu
Mallory's POV.As I worked with the men, carrying the sack of grains to the waiting truck. The first man who spoke to me smiled and commented, "I never knew you were an Alpha. I admired your strength and almost passed out thinking you would collapse with that big sack of grains." He chuckled heartily, and I smiled."I am an Alpha, and I do work at home. Though not this type of task," I recalled my stepmother used to give me laundry work to do. She tormented me, saying that I have to be useful, and my father turned a blind eye to it. As only Sonia was being treated like a princess back home.How unfortunate, because now, I do not feel like I am a princess either, and I love my new work."I am Kelvin Johnson. Nice to meet you, what's your name?" Kelvin asked me with a friendly smile as we carried another sack each and walked to the truck to put it."I am Mallory Adonis. Nice to meet you, Kelvin," I told him, and he grinned widely."Hey, you two! No discussion in the barn!" The superviso
