AUTHOR'S POV She slid into the far end of the vehicle after Damian dropped her outside. She hide from all the camera flashes behind blacked out windows. When Damian slid in a moment afterwards, he zeroed in on Gloria immediately. The corner of his mouth tilted up when he saw her sitting as far away as possible. "You're getting used to my life now Gloria Lancaster, I wasn't expecting that kiss" "Did I mess up?" Gloria murmured in reply, wrapping her arms protectively around her middle. She was painfully aware that if she messed up badly enough, it might cost her the baby. "How could that be" Damian exclaimed, truly shocked. âGloria, you saved the day. That was brilliant. None of the Alphas in the council will question me now. Even Brian and Victoria will have to forcefully accept the truth "Oh," she relaxed slightly, feeling silly now. "You looked so severe after the kiss, I just... I thought I messed up.â "Far from it." Damian announced as the car slowly began to move. "But I
AUTHOR'S POV She was forced to wake up when they got home to eat dinner. Damian had left her the living room as she said she lost some earring which Damian left her to find herself due to how tired he was so he could go take his bath. After his bath. Damian who realized that Gloria isn't showing any sign of returning soon to go downstairs and help her. He was about to gently pull the door handle when he heard Tanya's voice who seems to be on a call. "Gabriel since when did you have the guts to call me? I'm no longer the woman you think you can covet or have again. I'm now with Alpha Damian your boss" Gloria said. The phone seems to be in loud speaker because from where he was, Damian could hear the latter from across the photo say, "I know you're not a werewolf you don't have to force yourself in becoming one. If you're doing this to make me jealous Gloria Lancaster will you please stop?" "Gabriel please! Since when did you and I became close enough to be discussing persona
AUTHOR'S POVThe next morning later after the campaign dinner, things had returned to normal and of course he had to leave her and go back to work.That morning, Kyle had texted, asking her to join him for shopping later. Damian hasn't left by this time as he was busy on his laptop rather than concentrate on her. Gloria thought this is the perfect time to have a shower but as much as she wanted to get what happened the previous night when she had argument with Damian over Gabriel.Last night, his words when he was pacifying her came back to her brain slowly, "We might not be together after you put to bed" Gloria washed her hair twice, then dumped half a bottle of conditioner on the tangled mess, letting it soak in while she scoured her body with a liquid raspberry gel squeezed into a puffy ball of nylon. "No matter what I do, I'll leave after giving birth to the baby, isn't that fair?"she complained fiercely as the hot water rinsed away her dirty body. She knew better than to le
GLORIA'S POV.I woke up to meet myself in a dark room that seems to small for only me. Fear gripped my heart as I wondered if Damian knows where I am right now. All I could remember was after Damian released me and everything after went blank.Indistinctly, I grabbed my belly and tried stretching my tired legs but it was very stiff by now making me curled up like a tuna fish. .Seems like my movement alerted my captive as I heard footsteps not too far from me through my daze. âAh, youâre awake.â the disembodied voice wavered in and out of earshot as I tried to figure out whose voice it can be. "A pity we had to sedate you so severally, but it only helped my research, since no werewolf Luna would be easily be down with sedative" The voice expressed. My breathing hitched. What on earth is he talking about? Aside from Damian and I who could ever thought I was human? I tried hard to pry my eyes open, but the lids were leaden, the sedative must've really done a great job in me indee
AT PRIME PACK DAMIAN'S POV"My Luna suddenly disappeared and you're telling me not to suspect this blue eyed bastard?" I have no choice but to yell on the pack council sitting in my living room after the news circulated they Luna went missing. Rage ripped through the barriers of my mind making me shred through my clothes and the hand held me from punching Brian who was standing before me. There was no stopping the beast. Alaric was angry as hell as he wanted to take control no matter the case. He focused Brian who was still speechless. This was his doing. All of this. His plan all along. He had to pay with his life.âAlpha! No!â I heard Luca scream as Alaric readied himself to lunge at Brian. I was barely aware of the others in the room.What else can be more important than her life? Just yesterday we still.had an argument about her ex and I managed to make her trust me again and now she's gone?Nothing else mattered, nothing but the desire to sink my canines into the Brianâs throa
DAMIAN'S POV I can't help but pace up and down my office with worry. It's been two days now. Gloria hasn't been found. I knew that I couldn't take any chances.Living me wolfsbane is the least thing I can ever expect Brian to do to me. But as much as I force myself to sleep, I don't see Gloria's again. Due to the wolfsbane, Alaric is growing weak too. But I have no time to stay cooped up in the hospital. There were traitors in our midst, people who were working against me and trying to make Brian win. He had used his corny way to covet my men, I'm left in doubt on what to do. I needed to act fast, and I needed to be careful. I couldn't just start accusing people without proof, or I would risk causing even more chaos and confusion.But there was one person who I knew I could trust, one person who had always been loyal to me no matter what. Only Luca I can trust. If Gamma Tony had been around, things would be easier too. Ringing the bell in the table, I called Lycan in. He bowe
GLORIA'S POV "You will not do anything to me!" I yelled as the Lycan King tried to force me to swallow the porridge. I spat to his face and he staggered back, "Hey are you crazy? Dis you think skipping meals will actually do you any benefits?" I smirked, "Damian will be here soon. Prepare for your Doom!" I say with confidence.He ordered the maids to come take the plates away so he was seated again looking at me sinisterly, "Your dead body will do me no good either which is why I'm trying to keep you alive as much as possible""Tell Brian Stone and Victoria Moretti that they're losers. They think Damian won't win the election even without me there? Continue having delusions" I spat. He angrily rose to his feet and dashed me a tight slap. "How dare a human like to try to win your way out with those corny words? Damian will never be able to do it without you so stay here until after the election!" I laughed despite the pain, "In your dreams will whenever loose. The people obviously
GLORIA'S POV "Relax Luna, we'll be in the next settlement soon" Camila said as we continued running through the bush.I gave no choice but to let go if her hand. "Mila I'm dying. I can't run anymore" She stopped and looked back, "Are you going to loose now that we're almost free? Did you think I betrayed my pack to have you slug out like this?" I thinned my eyes, "What are you saying?"When the door opened earlier, it was a maid from Damian's house who was kinda close to me. I was surprised to see her here but she quickly went on her knees with sobs, "Forgive me. I was the one that let the Lycans into your bathroom" I was very furious that there's a backstabber in the house which is why I'm here right now away from Damian so much that I slapped her across the face. "Why did you do it? What did you what that Alpha Damian's won't give you?" I had asked through my anger and she sobbed the more. "Alpha Brian promised to kill my family if I don't help. He told me and the other Lycan
DAMIAN'S POV Brian didn't stop, he continued his words, "Isn't this the same Victoria Sinclair who wanted me to ride her faster than horse one saying I con her?" Victoria didn't respond. I was shocked to hear all these from the two of them, I can't lie, I'd thought Brian had a hand in how Victoria was trying to get close to me again but Alas he didn't?'So it's Brian and Victoria love saga now?' Alaric was enjoying this. But l no I am not fuckin interested in whatever it might be. Brian's face was merciless I could tell how hurt he was at this rate. I just realized that Brian is someone who gets hurt easily especially when anyone had a misconception about him.Brian moved closer to me he grabbed my collar therefore scattering the tie that I'd painstakingly knot. "Damian Moon how dare you? How can you say these words now and not support me?" I blinked in awe, I should support him with what? Alaric was behind himself with euphoric, 'I've never see such a delusional person as B
DAMIAN'S POV Over the past few days Victoria and I are growing more closer that I'd ever thought. She made it her duty to always prepare my breakfast and come work me to the hospital to clean Grandpa's body. Despite all these, There's no way I'm ever going to forget the woman that stayed with me when Victoria cheated on me. Each minute, that I see anything relating to her, my heart would swell up with emotions and I'll remember the days when we're both leaving together peacefully. When it's three weeks of futile search, Victoria who had been a constant antagonist to my life story worked harder and sooner, she got Alaric who used to hate her on her side This is a surprise that Alaric who hates Victoria could concur easily, but I don't have any energy to argue with him or else my body will suffer for it. That fateful morning I was preparing for office when Luca came into my room and bowed. "Alpha, about the project we're handling, the board has decided to extend the construction
GLORIA'S POV "In the world where fairness dominates, Werewolves and humans blend together and get rid of malicious and wicked creatures like the Vampires and witches like me" Ulsan explained as we both sat at the veranda of the castle eating groundnut and maize.Despite my reluctance to accept my fate and recoil from this woman, several options and revelations stopped me from doing so as I have been told the reason why she loves alone in the forest. It's all thanks to Victoria who think she abducted me and threw me into the forest either to get killed or eaten by wolf animals, or how else would I have ever met a witch? She took care of me after I'd eaten, take care of my pregnancy and provide alot of recreational activities that keeps me from getting bored. However, what I find baffling is that Ulsan refused to tell me the reason why she said there'll be no election. It's very shocking a surprising that the election Damian and Brian were fighting or will never hold but who am I
DAMIAN'S POV The next day started in a blur. Brian was the first to leave the hospital for his house to go freshen up leaving me and Victoria. Throughout all that happened last night, she was asleep she didn't know anything only to be bothering me with questions. Sooner, she also left to go freshen up, but I can't leave this man here alone. He might want to talk to me again or perhaps something might happen to him. Elder Collins was the first to arrive with his wife. " Alpha Damian, don't you think you should go back to your office? Staying here with him dues nothing right?" He asked. I shot the old man a deadly glance, "Did I complain that my bussiness is going under? I'm fine thank you!" I hate hypocrites like this. He only came here to scorn me,I know that because he's clearly on Brian's side. When Gloria disappear last month to the Lycans Coven, this same Elder Collins was the one that supported Brian in turning the elders against me. What should I expect from someone
DAMIAN'S POV.Brian and Victoria were fast asleep beside me but I can't fall asleep, not while watching that man on the sick bed while clutching to his life. When the clock stuck 12, I shifted to my wolf form so I could stand and guard the door. Despite all that, disturbing thoughts plagiarized the peace of my mind leaving me with turmoil and unspoken invincible pains that I couldn't control. 'Can Gloria really cheat on me?' was the constant rhyme going on in my heart untill I shifted back to have some rest.I noticed the blanket covering Grandpa was slightly opened on the side, I thought of walking over to adjust it when I suddenly feel his strong arms grab mine.My eyes flew open, the sleep that was weighing me down disappeared to jeopardy in one minute. Isn't he the same man that the doctor said was in coma and won't wake up till further notice. "Grandpa are you awake?" I asked with bare whispers but no response. I shook his hand again, "Grandpa, should I call the doctor?" No
GLORIA'S POVUlsan give me a room which I stayed in. But I refused to wrap my head around the fact that I'll stay in this magical Castle with a witch as Ulsan. Fear gnawed at me each minute that I tried to reassure myself that it will be fine because nothing is ever fine. The transitions, the castle, the revelation that I was saved by a witch, everything keeps spinning in my brain dynamically and I was unable to process it. This went on from morning till night, all I did was to hug my small baby bump and think of good old days. Tears had stopped flowing from my eyes since I've been crying for what seems to be ages. Nevertheless, I would hold my stomach, and speak silently to my baby, "Don't worry Baby, mommy will be fine, just don't give me any problems, I'll make sure to get you out of this place and we'll be with daddy soon" Talking of Daddy, I wonder what Damian is doing right now. Was he looking for me? Or....Damn! I just want to get the fuck out of this mysterious place bu
DAMIAN'S POV'Nothing must happen. Nothing will happen Damian' Alaric keeps reassuring me but my human side didn't want to accede We all rushed after the doctors to the operating room with eagerness and frenzy. I can't help but say I'm really scared, very scared and frightful, what if something happens to him? I will never forgive myself if anything happens to Gamma Tony because he's the only father and guardian I have in this world.The lights of the operating ward came in to signify the start of the surgery or whatever they want to do.Brian's blue eyes was glowing with fear, even the talkative Victoria was speechless and the elders had their heads bowed with worry as no one said anything to each other. I don't want to think about Gloria, but I don't know why my mind is constantly thinking of her, 'Where can she be?''But I can never accept the fact that she ran away from us. She's not the type to ditch he people like this' Alaric comforted me when he noticed the doubts in my mi
DAMIAN'S POV I packed my bags hurriedly in an attempt to go back to Edinburgh since several calls has been flooding me right from the moment everything happened. 'Will you leave her behind?' Alaric interrupted my thoughts and I stopped. I don't see how it can give without leaving her behind at this rate. Gama Tony is I'm pains over there and I'm sure my name will be on the council's lips waiting for me to come over. âWhat should I do Alaric? I can't fuckin find her anywhere it's been two days now!â I growled angrily and slumped back on the bed leaving the bags unpacked. For the last two days, Luca and the HR department has been running several location devices to find her location but none was successful. They managed to find her phone but where is she? The door was opened from outside and Victoria who was dressed gorgeously entered with her bags. âDamian, you haven't packed your bags? Time is running out we'll miss the flight" she yelled at me. I sat up on the bed and
AUTHOR'S POV Gloria's eyes snapped open immediately she felt cold water on her skin. At first, her eyes wasn't able to adapt to the bright light around her until someone stood on the doorpost where the sunlight flickered from allowing Gloria's eyes to adapt to the light. The environment reeked of damp soil and the air is so cold and uncomfortable but Gloria was able to adapt to the environment as though she's been there before. She stood up from the coffin where she was lying and saw a pair of old eyes looking at her like a doctor would look at specimen. The old woman poked her with a bucket, "Are you still alive or you're now a ghost?" Gloria opened her mouth to start talking but her breathing hitched and the baby in her belly kicked. She held her stomach and growled in pain. The old woman seem to notice her uneasiness and handed her a cup of water. "Take this" Gloria gulped the water hurriedly as if her life depends on it until she retched. "Thank you ma" Gloria breathed
