Xevia's POV "Those alphas deserve it," Archer said with sharp eyes directed at me."Why do you think that?""Come on sister in law-""Stop calling me that. Call me Xevia, do you understand?"Archer grimaced and chuckled, then nodded in agreement. "Alright.""It's good that you understand.""Do you know why we, the Rogues hate the alphas so much?" Archer smiled slightly as he asked me that. I didn't know if he was seriously asking this or if it was a trap."Because you guys are criminals and committed many dreadfulness and criminalities. That's why those Alphas decided to expel you from the pack.""Then, what happened to you? Did you also commit crimes and dreadfulness, so they expelled you?"Checkmate. Archer's words made me instantly tongue-tied. There were no words I could utter to deny this. He was right, and I was one of the Rogues. Now I am even the mate of one of the most reputable men in this forbidden bloody clan."That alph-ass seems to have brainwashed you into thinking th
Xevia's POVThis place was nothing like the one in my mom's story. "Why do you look perplexed?" Archer kept an eye on me as he lifted one of his eyebrows. "Why does this place seem unkempt?" I asked, a bleak emotion making me swallow my tears. Is this how they–the alphas, honor the knights who sacrificed themselves for peace?This place looks more like an abandoned place than a hero's tomb monument. Some trees were uprooted, and one corner revealed an extreme crack like a massive storm had struck it. Everything seemed destroyed and broken, with mossy gravestones and a garden overgrown with wild grass. No one was watching over it, only weasels roaming around. It was as if everyone had forgotten this place. No one remembered it anymore, literally no one. Is death always this sad? Would they forget us when we were already gone? Leaving us in the cold air covered in mud and decomposing animals?"I don't know, ask them, those alphas who lead this city," Archer said as he scratched his h
Xevia's POV Where am I? I saw a white ceiling, walls, cold air, and IVs. It must be a hospital. Archer must have brought me here. I should be dead, but I'm not, and my heart is still beating. The door suddenly opened, and I saw a man with a wooden stick in his hand enter with a nurse by his side."Madam, are you awake?" The nurse immediately approached me. She was gorgeous and had short brown hair and eyes that were as exotic as her skin. "Do you need anything?" she asked, her voice full of concern. I stared at the stranger for a while before I spoke again. "No, thank you," I replied, shaking my head lightly. "Is my wife okay?" That husky voice, Xander, was standing behind the nurse who was checking my blood pressure. And making sure my IV fluid hadn't run out. "Yes, Mr. Balstair, your wife is fine. I just checked on her." "Thanks." "Excuse me, and you can call me if you need anything or help." "Surely, thanks again." The nurse left the room. Leaving just me and Xander, he
Xevia's POV"Welcome back, young lady, " a beautiful young girl greeted me at Xander's mansion."Who are you?" I asked her, feeling like I had never seen her before."She is the new maid. Young master hired her to help you out." But it wasn't the girl who answered; it was Dorothy. I looked at the beautiful young girl, who I thought was too pretty and smooth to be a maid. "I don't think I need a new maid. I already have you," I looked at Dorothy. "So, young lady, starting tomorrow, I will be taking some time off because my daughter has just given birth, and she needs her mother's help to take care of the newborn," Dorothy explained with a hesitant face. I gasped and could only shake in response to Dorothy's words. "Oh, I see.""What's your name?" I asked the young girl, "My name is Bella." The young and beautiful girl smiled as she introduced herself."Bella, take the young lady's things to her room, please?." Bella nodded and took the bag containing my clothes into her hands. "
Author's POV "I want the latest, the most expensive, and the most advanced smartphone. " Xander said to the clerk at the mall."What shade do you want, sir?""What shade do you think Xevia likes, Archer?""I think white, yes, I want this one too," mumbled the young man beside him."What additional purchases did you make?" Xander wondered.Archer whispered back, "Wireless earphones.""I read on a website that listening to classical music during pregnancy benefits both mother and fetus. I want my nephew will grow up to be a smart and healthy baby." Listening to that made Xander smile happily and think that a baby soon be born from his mate's womb and would make his desolate mansion cheerfuller. And the baby's presence, he wished, could be a light for his evening."You are so thoughtful.""I learned it from you, bro," Archer patted his brother's shoulder lightly.***."Thanks, see you later, buddy," he said as Archer dropped him off at the front door of his mansion, which was guarded by
Xevia's POVI was still thinking about that woman, Alarick's future wife, who turned out to be gorgeous. Not just stunning. I can call her perfection. I felt pierced by pain and jealousy when I saw her.But the question I have now is, did Xander invite her on purpose? Then what did he do that for? Should I ask him? Would asking about her make me look like a teenage girl jealous of her ex-boyfriend's new girlfriend?As I was lost in thought, the car continued to drive through the darkness, Xander and me sitting in the back seat in a hush. The blind man didn't seem interested in chatting with me, and I wasn't either.Until I finally decided to say something first, "did you invite her?"Xander cleared his throat, "who are you talking about?""Lourve Ivyari and Velove Luciad.""No-""Liar!""I didn't invite them. What did I invite them for?""Balstair and Luciad's company have never gotten along.""Is it true what you say?"Xander didn't answer with words, and he just nodded slowly, "I'm n
Xander's POV"Alright, I'll send my men there, sir. Yes, yes, you don't have to worry. They'll be there in fifteen minutes. Calm down, sir, calm down, take a breath. Yes, everything will be fine. My men will clean up everything without a trace. Yes, as usual. By the way, Mr. Moralez, would it be best if you flew out of the country tonight as well? I'll arrange everything for you and your son, do you agree?""Alright, good night. I'll send the e-ticket to your email.""You're welcome, sir."I quickly hung up the phone with the poor man before he continued the conversation, which made my ears hurt.Jo Moralez is a human with wolf pups.Her son became a wolf because of the illegal actions of the same organization that made Archer a wolf. This time, Abner had eaten two servants in his house, leaving only their heads. The rest he ate and tore to pieces.And again, my men had to step in to clean up the crime scene. I also had to help him create an alibi so that this crime would go undetecte
Xevia's POVI thought the place I was heading to was a dark, lonely mountain range surrounded by dense forest.But I was wrong.No wonder they chose this place as their wedding location. Because it turns out that Mount Vermont is a tourist mountain, a volcano that is no longer active and is now used as a nature reserve and tourist spot.The mountains are not too high, around which luxury cottages and hotels are built. There are forests, but they are not as thick and wide as I thought. Because the forest is no longer natural; instead, it is an artificial forest specially maintained to accommodate wild deer and antelope.There was a park in front of my destination where children, parents, and tourists alike used to sit on one side of the river and watch the fish playing in the water. But there were a few other places in between where people gathered to eat a kind of food court. They look like shops with all sorts of delicious snacks, and they sell drinks, coffee, candy, and more."Miss,
