Alpha Zach's POV.My eyes narrowed in on the love of my life vanishing into the dark shadows of the forest.Bella, please stay. I sighed with a faraway look on my face. First, she rejected me and now she is leaving my pack for good."Beta Wood, why would you let her leave the pack just like that?" I gritted my teeth with a scowl then started pacing back and forth with raging anger within me.Beta Wood bowed his head and evaded my hot stare."Alpha, there is little I could do to stop Alpha Jacob and Bella because of their mate bond, and we both know we were outnumbered should I have interjected with her departure." He said in a low voice while his wife Diana slowly arched her back to pick up the briefcase filled with money and squeezed it against her chest and gradually strolled towards the door to the house as though she never wanted to be noticed...but she wasn't swift enough to evade my gaze as I soon caught sight of her..."And that money?" I raised a question with my jaws clenched.
Bella's POV.It was early hours of the morning and we arrived in Alpha Jacob's village, but I would not call it a village because I could clearly see the beautiful town lights and a lot of people's lively nightlife.Wow, this place is beautiful. I gawked at the senary while cautiously walking beside my new boo on high alert… with his Betas surrounding us as they causally ambled in their street still in our wolf form… This was their tuff hence they had no reason to be on high alert like me who was stepping into their town for the first time."The Alpha is back!" One person yelled out loud then everyone turned their attention toward us."Welcome back Alpha." Another shouted while others loudly cheered on.Alpha Jacob just slightly bobbed his huge caput lupinum (wolf's head) in response to the greetings and thunderous welcome.I wonder how they welcome him after he wins a battle. My skittish wolf slumped its shoulders, ears, and tail between the hind legs... As I secretly peeked at their
Alpha Jacob's POV.Home sweet home, I heaved a sigh and strolled straight to the shower to freshen up after a long tiresome day, leaving Bella standing outside in marvel I presumed.I just saved an Omega who turned out to be my second chance mate, what are the crazy odds of that happening?…moon goddess, what else do you have in store for me?I strolled straight to my bed after a five-minute bath and slowly sat down, next to it was a side wooden table with Avery's picture set on it. I lifted it and grazed my finger on it."Hey love, hope you are doing fine wherever you are…I just want to tell you that the moon goddess blessed me with a second mate and I'm trying so much to ignore her but I can't. Please forgive me." I pushed the picture frame to my lips with my eyes shut and kissed it.I felt so bad and guilty for accepting Bella to be my mate but I knew what would have followed her should I have rejected her… DEATH.You ask how? Okay, I will spare a few seconds and answer the question…
Bella's POV.It's been two long days since the elders happily welcomed me into the pack without any hideousness, and I had not seen Alpha Jacob since that fateful day.What's wrong with this man? He accepted me as his Luna and now he doesn't want to spend time with me?"Let's see if he will avoid me now." I glanced at myself in the huge mirror against the wall of my walk-in closet which was filled up with anything designer. Clothing, shoes, jewelry, and bags… anything I wanted to get the day I went out shopping with omega Zoey was fully paid for by the Alpha who avoided me…I sighed merrily with a cocky smirk curled on the corner of my lips.Covered in a white silky knee-length robe and only pink laced panties barefoot with my dark brunette hair hanging loosely on my shoulders, I was on a mission to seduce my Alpha to mark me because he was taking longer than expected…and I did not seem to know the answer to the question I kept asking myself.Doesn't the mate bond pull him? Because mine
Alpha Jacob's POV.It's been two days since I returned back to the mansion because I could not keep myself away from preying lustily on my new beautiful mate Bella wood but I felt it was wrong to cheat on my beloved departed Avery."I'm sorry Avery, but you know how much I can't help my wolf yearn for its second chance mate. It's impossible to keep myself away from her." Long lonely howls escaped my lips while I circled the burial site of my former mate Avery.I felt very guilty about my and Bella's mate bond clicking in. But as said, this was both our second chance fated mate hence we had no choice but to accept the goddess's will.What shall I do to avoid her? This is not the life I had planned out for myself… I howled in mourning when suddenly my ears gave attention to Bella's cry for assistance a few miles away from where I was standing.Bella??? I tensed while I gave attention to her voice.But what is she doing outside the mansion near me this late? Was she out looking for me?Un
Bella's POV.Talking in my mind, I felt like my body sank deep down into an abyss without anyone else in sight…Pa, please help me!Pa's faint image floated past me hurriedly without glancing at me while I stretched out my hand to try and get hold of his.Pa… don't leave me alone. A tear trickled down my cheek.Then suddenly, Alpha Jacob's faint image came straight to me and gently clasped my hand.'I'm here Bella.'Alpha Jacob? Why are you here? A spontaneous smile radiated on my face.With my body stiffened up, I was unable to feel my limbs, I tightened up with my lungs filled up with water until I woke up to the blinding lights seeping through the white curtains in my room. "Jacob!" His name slipped out of my lips as I tried to make out my surroundings because the last thing I remembered was plunging down to the depth of the excruciating water of the pond. My skin burned with tremendous pain, I peeked at my arm, and it was fine...I sighed a sigh of relief.Thank the goddess that w
Two hours later, I roved aimlessly in the castle looking for my Alpha, who said he would be back in a jiffy. Where are you hiding sexy, I peeked around in the many numbered rooms to make an effort and locate Jacob, but he was nowhere in sight. Twirling my hair on my index finger, I wondered what was taking him so long to get me the simple, plate of food he promised.Where did he go? I peeked into the hot steamy busy kitchen and everyone in the room was sweating profusely from the heat of the mega industrial stoves cooking up what seemed to be a great feast for hundreds of people.Did Jacob tell them to prepare all this food for me? Besides, I'm not that hungry to finish all that! Suddenly my stomach grumbled loudly like it had a brain of its own attempting me to fix myself a plate. Oh, be quiet.I quickly glanced around to see if anyone was paying attention to my stomach lamenting for food...seconds later it made the same loud noise, and I had it with the complaints. I wrapped my ar
Beta Samantha's POV.How dare he chase me out of the room in the presence of that timid stupid girl? I roughly pushed back the annoying strings of hair in front of my eyes.Daddy needs to do something about it or else I will, I got into my pink customized mini Cooper daddy got me a week ago and sped off leaving tire dents on the driveway.My iPhone pro 13 was clipped on its customized phone holder next to the car radio…I pressed the unlock button."Siri, call sweet daddy," my voice commanded the phone to dial daddy's phone number."Calling sweet daddy," Siri answered back loudly.By the way, Siri is an artificial intelligence built, into my phone.I gave attention to Daddy's phone ringing wherever he was…I needed to vent my anger to him because he was the only one who knew how to sort out all my personal problems.I was raised by a single Dad because mom decided to run off with some other rogue in the forest, reasons best known to her for abandoning her own family, and ever since then
