MADELINE'S POVWhat is happening!!!Everything is happening in a whim. It all looked like something out of a movie scene. My initial reaction was one of shock and total disbelief. Thank goodness for Rosaline. She was quick to drag me out the pack square chaos and instructed some warrior wolves to escort me back to the mansion.I instinctively placed my hands on my growing bump as I was been escorted back to the mansion. The sound of snarls, breaking of bones and primal roar in the distance sent shudders through my spine.I was halfway to my room when an already shifted rogue wolf jumped right in front of us. From the appearance of the wolf, its eye gleamed with brutality and destruction. The warrior wolves around me sensing danger charged forward to subdue the wolf, but they were all wrong.

ALPHA KONAN'S POVI sat alone in my study and the events of the last few days replayed in my mind like relentless storm. Most importantly, I couldn't shake off the image of Madeline, trembling and disoriented. My mind currently was a whirlwind of emotions—rage, anger, confusion, you name it.The weight of the surprise attack pressed on me. Everyone demanded answers especially the pack members whose lives were endangered because they all came out to show their undying love and support for me.The attack seemed too well coordinated to be a mere coincidence. There's a mole in the pack. Someone who knows the in and out of the pack ratted us out—it is someone very near, very close. Damien was my die hard suspect. He could do anything in whatever way to get whatever he wants. Damien suggested the duel and the people who came with him to support him could have done that in conjunction with him. The duel might have been a distraction for them to carry out their ploy.But in the same vein, he
GODFATHER'S POVIt's been ages alpha Gritus had summoned me. Answering to his summons, uneasiness got the better part of me. Alpha Gritus has been the bane in my life, the bane for my greediness. If greediness could make me survive in this harsh, cold world. I was ready to be a servant to alpha Gritus.The mere mention of alpha Gritus sends shivers down the spine of anyone who knows him.

MADELINE'S POVThe pack doctor flashed the torch into my eyes. I felt uncomfortable and I blinked a thousand times. He let go of them and he swiveled his chair back to its original position.With all your examinations done in the past few days, you are now better. Miss Madeline, you didn't particularly suffer from face blindness. You suffered from post traumatic stress disorder also known as PTSD. It is due to the extreme stress you subjected yourself to. Your brain deciding not to remember people's face for the time being was because of the bad experience you witnessed and according to what you told me, you have been kidnapped and you witnessed the last pack attack in your condition. So it was very likely to happen.But not to worry ma'am, I can see you have been punctual with your drugs and I am happy you can recognize the details on people's face clearly now. "Thank you so much doctor," I said."Doctor please can you keep my coming here a secret?""You mean from alpha Konan?""Yes
MADELINE'S POVI sat on my bed, cradling my swollen belly. Something was wrong. Ever since I consumed the herbal tonic, everything went wrong and awry. I hadn't felt my baby's pulse in hours. This was very strange. I wasn't sure what, but I could feel it deep down that something was wrong.Confusion clouded my mind, my thoughts were muddled. Fear gripped my heart and I couldn't bring myself still. Maybe it was just my imagination, maybe it was tiredness seeping in.I tried to push the negative thoughts away. My mind swirled with terrifying possibilities. I needed to convince myself that everything was fine. I decided to indulge myself. Reading a book could gnaw away my anxiety.Around midnight, I was woken up by a sharp pain on my abdomen.

I let out a gasp of pain, doubling over as the sensation overwhelmed.I tried getting myself off the bed, but it was very difficult. The pain was inte
ALPHA KONAN'S POVThe past days had been so hectic and filled with pack activities with no atom of break in between. Dan and Rosaline sat in a corner of my study working alongside me. We were hard with work concerning the upcoming pack headquarters meeting and discussing strategies to improve pack security and the quality of lives in the pack.I was focused, reading and vetting pack documents until Dan interrupted me."Alpha Konan, the budget for the warrior wolves at the pack borders have been prepared according to your standards. Your signature and seal is all that is needed and the implementation of the budget begins."I took the documents from Dan and I skimmed through all the pages to make sure there were no form of mistakes in facts and figures. I was satisfied and they were perfect just the way I had instructed him to do it."This is all good Dan," I said as I penned down my signature and seal on the documents. Rosaline is the summary of the amount spent on pack security for t
ALPHA KONAN'S POVI walked as fast as my legs could carry me to Madeline's room. I sincerely prayed to the moon goddess to avert the news. I deeply hoped it was false. I was strongly in denial. With everything happening in the pack in the past few days, my position as the alpha was hanging on a thin lined thread and this wasn't the right time for such tragedy to occur.Nurse Maude stood right in front of Madeline's room, sadness written all over her. Upon seeing me, nurse Maude lowered her face, unable to meet my gaze."Nurse Maude, I believe I assigned you to be Madeline's caregiver, and I believe the rumors about her losing the pregnancy is not true.""I'm sorry to say this alpha Konan, Madeline lost the baby, and the pack doctor confirmed it," nurse Maude replied.My mind was reeling, trying to process the news."Alpha Konan, nurse Maude whispered and knelt down in submission.

As I approached the rugged paths that led to the penal pier, my heart was heavy and torn apart. The weight of guilt and shame shrouded me for been unable to take care of my baby.I walked with heavy steps and the air was thick and suffocating.
