- Zeba -

My heart began to fail me, remembering all the desires and wishes I had towards Franklin and how I wouldn't want to give that all away was worth fighting for.

I had never felt for any man the way I felt for him and I doubted if I would ever be able to find any. Despite my hurt, I let down my ego and tried to talk him into seeing reasons with me.

"Franklin..." I called softly. "I don't know what to do and I have never cried for a man nor feel the way I do. This is going to break me forever. I need you to know how much I love and care about you. I need you to know I haven't been with any man because you have always been the one I wanted. I might not have told you before now, and that's probably the mistake I made, but I was just disciplined as much as you were not to bring emotions into our relationship. All that I did because I did not want to lose you."

"Zeba...

    - Giselle -I rubbed my belly gently. It was hard to believe a baby was growing in there and Franklin's baby, too. The goddess might be using my life for a show. My subconscious told me I couldn't blame the goddess for everything when I was also the one who let Franklin touch me.However, I am not the one responsible for the feelings I had, am I? My door opened, and I jumped slightly in fright.Xavier stood before me like I stole something that belonged to him."You bitch," his curse greeted me first. "So this is your plan. You seduced my father and got pregnant for him. What were you thinking?""The same thing you were thinking when you got my maid pregnant," I retorted. "This is just a dose of your medicine, and you are sounding like you cannot take it? How did you think I felt when I found out about you and Kira? Two can play the game, you know.""Giselle, what you don't understand is you are a woman, and I am a man. I can have multiple women, and you cannot. You were betrothed to

    - Giselle -I was in a state of shock for a few seconds, trying to get myself."Are you okay?" Franklin asked with concern in his eyes as he placed a hand on my face. I nodded slowly."Come on, I told you all will be fine. You've got to trust me, okay? All will be fine. Let's go."I was barely listening to him. Cold shivers ran down my spine as the memory came down to me. What the hell is going on? And why am I seeing this now? I began to wonder if my mental health was okay or if there was something behind this that Xavier was not telling me.Could it be that I was thinking too much? I wanted to ask him who Odessa was and if she had any connection with him, as I see in what seems to be my imagination, but there was no time.The Lords were already in the palace and waiting. Franklin dragged me slowly along because my feet felt like jelly.The entire palace, if not the entire pack, was still and quiet with fear. I, in particular have never met the Rulers of the origin.I have heard of

    - Giselle -"No?" The Lord repeated in the deadliest voice I have ever heard in a while. "Did you hear him?"He turned to his colleagues."Can you imagine the effrontery? He said no. I have him a chance to correct his deeds and save his ass and he fucking said no.""No just because you want to separate me from my family and take my child's life," Franklin shot at him. "They are now my family. I will not allow anything to take them away from me.""Do you realise the consequences of your actions?" Another asked.No this was it. I cannot let them make any drastic decisions against him or my father. If this was just about me then it was fine, but father was included. If they were giving us a chance then we had better take it."Franklin please," I pleaded with him. "Just do whatever they say please.""We will do no such thing," Franklin half yelled, startling me. "I told you to keep out of this and let me handle it."I looked at Father. He kept his head down and did not say a word."Alpha

    - Franklin -Bloody hell!I swore under my breath as I closed the door. I shouldn't have expected any better from Frederick. Of course, he would use this situation to his advantage.I and Frederick have been sworn enemies for years. My father and his father passed the enmity to us, and even after their death, it kept on, and Frederick seemed to carry on with twice as much energy.He'd never liked me and took everything I did as a competition. I barely cared about his existence, but he was always in my face.Good for him; he became a Lord before me, and I can only imagine how much his ego is massaged by that."I hope you are not so dumb to think this matter will go by just like that," he told me as the Lords prepared to leave. "Lord Rego might claim it's fine, but believe me when I tell you it isn't.""Let me worry about that," I replied to him with a shrug, unbothered. "You are not in the place to because this is no concern of yours. You don't care what happens to me. And you are not

    - Giselle -Is this over? I wondered to myself with my hand on my chest. Is this really over? I could not believe the Lords actually allowed us.I ran to Father, and he held me in a tight embrace. Immediately, they all left. I wept on his chest. I was raw with fear as I dreaded what they would have done to me...to us."Father I'm so sorry you had to go through this," I said earnestly. He touched my head gently."It's fine and it's not your fault," he replied. I could feel the emotions in his voice. He was as terrified as I was, but my heart melted at the thought of despite the fear of what would have become of him, Father still stood by me."What could have happened if they did not let it be?" I wondered aloud."You wouldn't want to know," he sighed but went ahead to tell me. "Cases like this rarely occur because no one would dare do such a thing for fear of the judgement of the Lords especially if you are a leader in a pack. The only time I heard about something like this was years a

    - Giselle -The morning sun reflected on my face and I closed my eyes briefly, allowing my skin to feel the warmth of its rays.A smile crept up my face when the only thing that replayed in my head was the previous night's events.Franklin's body against mine, the rhythm of his movements and the ecstasy. Everything flashed back like it happened just now."And I wonder what is giving you so much Joy in the morning? Perhaps, the thought of shamelessly being with my father?" An annoying voice disrupted my moment, and I opened my eyes with a frown to behold Xavier."You know it baffles me how you are fine and okay with what you did. You are not even remorseful for your actions.""Now why should I?" I replied. "I don't feel anything as long as you are concerned. It's the same thing you felt when you slept with Kira.""I know you are doing all these things because you want to get back at me and not because you love my father. There's no possibility of a bond between the two of you and you w

    - Kira -I walked up to Giselle's room and she was on her bed reading an old article. She lifted her head from the piece of paper and looked at me questioningly as I approached her.I moved closer to the bed and fell on my knees."What's with you?" She asked, puzzled."Princess, from the depth of my heart I want to tell you how sorry I am. It might have taken this long but I had this in mind. To apologise to you for everything that I've done. I did not mean to hurt you intentionally by being with the Prince. I tried not to but I couldn't help it till the deed was done. I felt horrible that I put you in such a position. I have no peace and might never until you forgive me.""What are you talking about?" She asked. "I have nothing against you being with the Prince. If I did, you wouldn't be here in the first place. And as you can see, I'm with Alpha Franklin. The Prince is the last thing on my mind now.""I know my princess," I sniffed. "It's not just about the prince but the relationsh

    - Kira -I let out a light scream when I felt a sharp pain in my abdomen. No...this cannot be what I think it is. It mustn't be.The pain increased, and I slid down to the ground."What's happening to her?" Someone asked."Don't stand there asking questions, quick, let's take her to the hospital," the urgency in the chief Maid's voice confirmed my fear."Please don't tell me it's my baby," I cried out despite the pain. They did not say anything but helped me up."Get me the prince," I said. "Please get me, Xavier."Fear gripped me to death when the bleeding became more serious and intense. The last thing I saw was Maria standing in a corner with her hands over her chest with the same fear written all over her face.- Giselle -There was something off about the drink Kira offered to me though I could not tell what it was but my instincts greatly told me so and I listened to it.Before she passed me the drink, I tried using whatever power I might possess to exchange the contents in both

    - Kira -I followed father around, trying to keep up with his pace. He was very excited about Giselle's delivery and was so busy sending out invitations for the celebration party and I had to help him."I feel very fulfilled," he told me and I had to force a smile. "I am now a grandpa after all these years. Giselle sure knows how to make me a happy man after her mother."He must have realized I might be upset with that when he added."All my children make me happy," and looked at me. "Like the day I found out you were my long-lost daughter after searching for you for years."I was glad when he did not say anything again for the next few minutes. It would have been my head blowing off if he did. I was already tired and fed up with talks about Giselle and the babies. So much for thinking she might not survive this one and she did.I have always wondered if there was something different about her. The aura that gives on a main character in a movie or something.She was always getting awa

    - Giselle -I walked out of the bathroom and the first thing I saw was Franklin crouched over our babies, looking at them with so much tenderness in his eyes.I smiled and leaned on the wall, watching him watch them.I was already recovering and felt very much better even though I recalled so well that I was at the point of death.I was already giving up then a scent I knew so well enveloped me. I could not see him but I knew he was there. I did not know what he did but somehow I gained strength from it.I became charmed over again. Marrying Franklin was the best decision I have ever made in my life. He was my soulmate and the best thing that ever happened to me.His love was overwhelming. It was so strong it protected me from the hands of death. My heart melted towards him over again and I felt like a teenager who had just met her first love.I walked towards him and wrapped my arms around his neck. I closed my eyes and hugged him tightly.He was taken aback, not expecting the hug bu

    - Franklin -"Where is my wife?" I asked the question I dreaded."Oh, she is fine," the doctor said. "She and the babies are fine.""Thank goodne..." I let out a deep breath and sucked it back in almost immediately as his words registered in my head. "What did you just say?"He smiled."She had twins," he told me. "A boy and a girl."I couldn't believe my ears and did not know how to react to the news either."You mean, I'm having two babies at once?" I asked, holding out two fingers.I don't know why that sounded funny to the doctor but he chuckled and nodded."In fact, you already have them," he said. I brushed him out of the way into the room and found them. My two gems and lovely wife are on the bed.Words failed me. And for the first time in a very long while, tears gathered in my eyes."Oh my goodness, oh my goodness," I muttered as I moved slowly towards them. Giselle was awake but looked weak. In spite of that, she managed a small smile.I held her hand hands gently and kissed

    - Cleopatra -I turned round abruptly, surprised to see him."Franklin?" I called as if I was not sure of his existence in flesh and blood. "What are you doing here? I thought we agreed you were going to wait in your chambers so the doctors can work this out?""I changed my mind," he said. "I will stay here till the end of it.""No you will not," I said hastily before I could stop myself then sighed. "I mean, you shouldn't. We've discussed this already. It's not nice for you to go through this. I will stand in for you. You will only be agitated waiting here.""Don't worry about that, sister," he said with a straight face. "I am strong enough to wait. It is cowardice to leave my wife in this condition and stay in my room. Let me worry about her. That might not even be the problem. I am staying strong where her strength fails her.""But it's not even the issue of staying strong or not," I chuckled. "It's making an environment where these guys can work freely and save her. If you stand o

    - Franklin -There was a strange look on the doctor's face, not exactly strange because I could already tell what he was going to tell me was not a good news."Her pregnancy was induced," he told me. "We'd have to take out the baby to save her life.""Her life?" I was able to pick. "And what of the child?"The doctor went mute and looked away. I held his shoulder and shook him."Tell me," I half yelled."I'm afraid we might lose it," he said slowly. I let him go, my heart shredding to pieces. I cannot lose my child. No. Not after all these years. Not again."And my wife? What is the probability of her being saved?" I asked, and again, I feared his response."If I'm to be sincere with you, it's a fifty," he said. "But, I will assure you that we will do our best."I ran my hand through my hair and took deep breaths in a bit to calm myself. I was not thinking straight and I felt extremely cold.King Markus was there with me, looking and watching. There wasn't one amongst us who could com

    - Jason -I instinctively placed a hand on my stomach, waiting to feel any slight pain."Did you poison me?" I asked him. The seriousness dropped off his face, and he laughed. Morgan laughed long and hard, doubling over. He hit his fist on the table while he laughed, and I watched him, dumbfounded.He finally struggled to control the laughter with a wheezing sound, tears in his eyes."Gosh, you need to see the look on your face," he said. "I did not poison you, silly."I let out a deep breath I had not realized that I was holding."Now, why will I want to kill you and choose to do it by poisoning your food?" He asked, taking a cup of water from the table. He gulped it down and shook his head at me. "You looked so shaken. Are you that scared of death? For someone like you, poisoning is a disgraceful way to die, for even if I wanted to kill you, not that way."He laughed again."Morgan, that was not funny," I had to say."You think? You looked like a wrung chicken. You looked like your

    - Jason -I had just finished speaking with Alpha Sheka about very important matters of the pack and was about to leave when he called me back."That reminds me," he said. "I need to invite you to a banquet tonight. I was going to tell you earlier but I skipped. Also because of the matters at hand you know.""I understand alpha," I replied empathetically. "Where'd we get the invitation from now?""Oh it's not far," he said with a suspicious movement of his lips that could pass for a smile. "It's from my son.""Oh, that's interest...what!?" I was saying before my brain registered what I heard."Yes, my son, Morgan. He arranged the banquet specially made for me and you," he repeated and I still could not believe my ears."Did he say he wanted me at the banquet?" I still asked because I could not make sense out of it yet."He made a special request for you to be there. You are surprised, aren't you? Well, I am too. I hope you don't mind the banquet. I've always thought you two were...uh,

    - Jason -It took me a few seconds after I returned to my room, to notice someone was there. I turned around with a displeased frown on my face."What are you doing here, Morgan?" I asked him."It's Prince Morgan but yeah, I think I can let that slide since it's you and also seeing that you'd always stress me with having to correct you all the time," he said with a grimace."What are you doing in my room?" I sighed."I'm here to talk," he replied with a shrug. "Can't I talk to you?""What are we talking about and why in my room? Official meetings are not held in the bedroom.""That's it," he snapped his fingers. "Because this is not an official business.""I cannot tell when we began to have an unofficial relationship," I stated and he laughed."Maybe if you were paying attention more, you'd remember that I did mention it.""I don't want to be acquainted with you, Morgan," I said to his face. "I am fine the way we are.""Come on Jason, don't make this hard," he said, relaxing his back

    - Cleopatra -I eyed the greedy man and scoffed."What do you mean by this is not enough? Do you want four generations' wealth before you're okay?" I scowled at him."My lady, you know what it caused us to be able to cover up for you. And I have other people to settle and keep their mouths shut. You will have to remit more."I sighed tiredly."Okay fine. I am going to give you some more but that will be it. You must not complain nor ask me for anything after that. And you must not try to contact me because we can never be seen together. Do you understand?""Clearly," he replied."Good."I was able to handle him without anyone finding out about it, and I hoped it remained that way. Anna has promised to keep her mouth shut and only say what was agreed on if Giselle finds her, but I couldn't trust her.How could I hold her to her words? I looked into her eyes and saw the fear.
