Elena pov

As I walked into the hospital, the doctors and nurses welcomed me warmly.

Of course, I was here under Alpha Horace; they basically had no choice.

I also noticed the murmurs. The whispers.

People are trying to make guesses about the status of our relationship.

But I didn’t care. Let them guess and talk.

Nothing had been confirmed publicly yet. But if they wanted to gossip, who was I to stop them?

Ethan and I spent a few hours at the hospital as the doctors ran multiple tests on him to confirm my suspicions.

I had bragged about my certainty of his condition and now had to prove they were true.

After the tests were carried out, I instructed the doctor to send the results via email before walking out. Just in time to meet him in the hallway.

“Daddy,” Ethan shouted happily, rushing down my body to go hug his father.

Horace joined him halfway.

“Hey, buddy.” He said, picking him gently off the ground. The sight was a wonder to witness.

We walked out together, looking like a close-k

    Elena’s POVHorace and I walked side by side towards the new hospital lobby that shimmered like frozen stars. The cameras around us flashed viciously the moment they set eyes upon us, followed by questions and praises for us. My hand tightened a little bit more on his arm, as if letting go might make him disappear from my sight. He obviously had no opposition to it and was always ready whenever I pulled tighter.At one point, we stood shaking hands and replying to the greetings of dignitaries who came up to us.My bump was already showing itself a bit, so congratulatory messages flew all around us from people who seemed genuinely happy.As we walked into the hall, I was immediately left amazed. The decorations outside the lobby were nothing compared to what was inside.After all the greetings were done, the performing host introduced us to everyone, which was quickly met with bows and more greetings before Horace was finally called to the stage. He began talking, introducing the ne

    Horace’s POVAs I heard the word dropped from Elena’s mouth, I really wasn’t sure how to react to them.An apology out of nowhere?Is it something I can trust?Hmm.“So she apologised just like that?” I asked, helping her pack her hair up. “Absolutely. It left me as shocked as it’s leaving you now.”I squinted my brows, trying to make sense of it. “What did she say her reason was?”“Said she thought the baby would be a threat to Ethan’s position and she just wanted to protect him.”I scoffed. “So what’s changed all of a sudden?”She sighed, rising to her feet as I let go over hair.“Well, she said she finally realized that I didn’t seem like someone who would do something like that. Said she realized that I genuinely care for Ethan because she has seen me protecting him even when I thought no one was looking.”I let out another scoff. “So it took her that long to realize it?“Don’t be like that. The most important thing is that she now realizes her mistake and is willing to make a

    Elena‘s POV“No, let's do something off the menu today. It’s the weekend and I just want something simple.” I said it’s one of the maids in the kitchen as we began preparation for breakfast.”“Of course, Luna.”Just then, the door pushed open and she walked in.I watched her take steps closer to me, and for a moment I braced myself, already expecting one of her silly arguments.“Good morning, Luna. I trust your night was well.” She said, sounding a bit too calm for what I was expecting.“Good morning, Vivienne. It was good, and yours?”She smiled. “It was perfect.” She paused, gave an awkward smile, and then spoke again. “Actually if I’m being honest, it wasn’t all that good.”I stared at her, confused because I truly couldn’t understand why she was sounding so casual and calm with me.It wasn’t what I had seen in the last few days since she came in, but I decided to play along.“Uhm, want to talk about what is wrong?”She let out a soft moan and lowered her gaze.“Actually, yes… I ca

    Assistant’s POVThe meeting was done and over and thankfully, all talk about any familiarity with me died down immediately as I gave her a history of how I had been living.In the document I showed her, there was no way I could ever be familiar with her because we had never managed to live in the same place.She agreed and quickly welcomed me into the family with the agreement that I would never put her son in harm's way.“Since you’re going to be working directly with my son, I’d advise you to always check yourself and make sure you don’t do anything wrong or impressionable around him. Is this understood?” I nodded. Of course, I said it was right with me. There was no way I was going to tell her otherwise.I had thought she would even offer me a room in the main palace, somewhere she could control my affairs, but she hadn’t.Which kind of thwarted my plans a little.Being closer would've done so much more for me and given me the chance to look into things I needed, but since that d

    Assistant’s POVI was escorted through the hallway that was polished so smoothly I could basically see my reflection on it.The place was squeaky clean and a bit too bright for me.I prefer my properties darker.The God finally stopped before a single door room and turned to me.“ You may go in, the Luna is waiting.”I smiled, nodding my head at the perfect speed to heighten my charm.Perfect smile, Perfect manners— just what I needed to survive in my new world.I stepped inside and was immediately met with a softly lit room, scented with something warm and inviting, and my face immediately widened into a smile. It was all worth it after all. Just then, I noticed her by the side of the window.The new Luna of Crimson Moon.The woman, everyone had nothing but praises at the tip of their tongues for.she stood, lifted a finger as if to tell me she would join me soon, while typing something into her phone.I had no problem with that; I was in her domain after all, so I had to give her

    Vivienne’s POV“Well, come and tell me everything that has happened so far. Do not leave anything out because I need to know it all, I need the motivation,” he said, pulling me towards the couch in the living room.My breath quickened, not in fear or anything like that, but in sheer thrill of sharing with him how I had begun our planned want attacks.“Well, contrary to what I thought about the union, they happen to be very close. In fact, they seem unbreakable, and this greatly annoys me. I just know it’s going to cause a hitch in our plans.”He sighed, fixing his index finger on his jaw as if thinking about something.Then I remembered the letter he had sent to me. “But I thought you said they didn’t have such a good relationship and it would be easy to get him to send her out.”He let out another sigh.“Well, at the time I sent you the letter, it definitely had a rocky relationship.”“So what could have changed in just a matter of weeks that has made them so close and unbreakable?”
