I dedicated the rest of the night to Rommel, arranging a bedroom for me and Ana. We had countless things to talk about, but it wasn't a cheerful girls' night like before."Where will you sleep? There's nothing of yours in the bedroom. What's your plan now, Clara?""It's just logic, Henry. My body will serve you during your rut, not before, and you will serve me during my heat. There's no reason to keep sleeping together if I disgust you.""If I disgust you so much, why are you planning to share your rut and heat with me? You're just a prude who opens her legs for anyone. You feel like a prisoner in this house because I don't let you go out to mess around with anyone like the cheap whore you are.""You're partly right. I am a prude, and for the sake of my son, I don't go out not because you don't permit it, but because I prefer to stay with my son. And as for being a 'cheap whore,' you are living proof that I'm not cheap. Whether you want to admit it or not, we are cut from the same cl
The night passed without me being embraced by its arms. I sat in front of the window, waiting for the dawn. It was beautiful, like many I've seen during my sleepless nights, missing her scent, the only thing I knew about my destined one, my moon, the love that I almost killed with my own words. There was a knock on the door, pulling me out of my thoughts. "Come in!""Alpha, you need to see this.""Do you really hate me, Muriel? Can I fix myself up? This headache is killing me.""I don't think so. You need to see this now, Alpha.""Let's go," Beta. Muriel was never emotional, and his face never reflected what was going on, but this time, his expression completely changed, and that wasn't good."What is this about?""They've kidnapped your daughters, Alpha. They just sent Terry and his partner back badly injured with a note pinned to their chests.""I'll go see them and des.""You can't go in, miss. The Alpha is busy.""Stop me if you can.""What are you doing here, Chima? Where is Esme
"How can you say that? Where are my daughters, Clara?""You're hurting me, Ana. Please let go.""How do you expect me to calm down? My daughters have disappeared, Terry and Chris aren't answering, and the camp says they were never registered. How do you expect me to be?""I know, Ana, but hurting me won't solve anything. You're scaring Rommel.""I know, I'm sorry. I'm just desperate. I can't lose them, not them. It would be... Andrews! Let's call Andrews; he can help. This time, I'm willing to offer my life in exchange for getting my daughters back.""I already did that, Ana. The Alpha is coming here. Please calm down, or you'll be a hindrance instead of help. You need to remember your health."I tried to calm down; Clara was right. If I let myself fall apart, I wouldn't be of any help, and Terry isn't here to assist me. Damn it! Everything is getting complicated."I know, Clara. Don't worry anymore; you can pass me the medicine.""I'll bring it right away. Come, let me help you sit d
“I didn't do that to Anastasia, I never... A somewhat confusing memory passed through my mind, something I couldn't decipher, just blood and tears on Ana's face”.“You remembered, Alpha. She was your destined mate; you wanted to mark her as yours, without giving her a choice. Not only did you try to kill her, but you also subjected her to a slow physical agony and gave her beautiful children, whom Ana didn't want to give up.”“I didn't remember until today. My wolf clung to her without considering the consequences, forgetting that I was the one in control. He went mad for his she-wolf, and... I couldn't continue, remembering what a scoundrel I was, how I clung to her scent and skin in my rut”.“It's not time to dwell on the past; it's time to put the present in order, gentlemen, listen...”“What she needs is a strong intake of alpha pheromones. Her body becomes unstable due to the lack of her Alpha. I've been helping her with that every two months, but we were more than a week away fr
The truth is, we had to sedate Ana. She was very agitated, and her blood clotting problem didn't help at all. She fell asleep sobbing the names of the girls, saying she both loved and hated me equally. She thanked me for hastening her death so she could be with Elián. Who was this Elián that she kept mentioning?"For now, everything is under control. The Luna needs to rest; it's not advisable for her to move in her current state. She's very weak, and the blood loss has further weakened her.""Thank you, doctor. As you can see, she won't be able to leave here until she improves. It will be faster to bring him here. How are they?""If you're referring to Doctor Castelblanco and his partner, they are slowly making progress. The excessive use of their strength and pheromones brought the doctor to a critical state. I can't imagine how much he suffered the day he woke up to show me the medical history of your Luna, Alpha. It's superhuman."“Yes, doctor, I don't understand how he could do it
My body ached, I moved a little and heard his hoarse voice, I looked up and met those cold eyes that wanted to devour me.“Are you awake?”“Obviously, aren't I? I remembered yesterday's events and felt like a fool.”“Who is Elián?”I choked on my saliva upon hearing my son's name from his lips.“You shouldn't care who he was, just forget about it.”“Then I must forget everything you said last night.”“What?”“Are you sure you want to know who Elián was?”“Yes, I want to know. Who was my son, and why did you mention him?”“Elián was our son, Alfa. We lost him years ago due to complications during pregnancy. It was a very painful time for both of us. I loved him, but I also hated myself for letting you mark Ana. I didn't know if I could forgive you for that”.“I can't believe it. Why didn't you tell me?”“I didn't want to cause you more pain. I thought it would be better for both of us to move on and forget that painful past”.“I understand that you did it to protect me, but now that I
"Ana, I know, and it doesn't make me proud. It's better for you to recover, and then I'll be able to take you there," I said as I left the room without looking back, afraid I wouldn't be able to contain myself."You're the cause of all my miseries, Alpha. I hope one day you can repay all the harm you've done to me and my children. I hate you with all my being," Ana cried bitterly, sliding down the wall that was helping her stay on her feet.A strong pain struck my chest before I reached Esme. "What brings you here?" she asked."It's not your daughters. They continue in a deep slumber, and it seems they don't want to wake up.""Then?""I discovered who is behind all the incidents, and it won't be easy to defeat them."Esme spoke seriously, her once cheerful smile completely vanished. Her words made me realize that this enemy is equal or even stronger than me. Who could it be?"We must talk in private; the walls have ears," Esme said.I nodded and led her to the study. "Why all the secr
"Ana, what are you doing here? The doctor recommended complete rest for you; your heart is...""I know what the doctor said, Alpha. It's the same thing Terry has been saying for years. Don't worry about me; I'll be fine.""You shouldn't exert yourself. It's better to stay in bed. I'll go to Chima and check on the girls.""Did you hear what your 'friend' said? We can't wait; Estela must be very weak. She needs her treatment, or she won't fare well.""I heard every word Esme said, but I can't endanger your life, Ana. You're on... I couldn't finish that word; it hurts.""On the brink of death? I have been since I brought our children into this world. Nobody knows my condition better than I do, and I know how far I can go. I've already told you not to worry about me. I can handle my own problems."I approached Andrews, getting as close to his large body as I could. I look like a keychain next to him.“Out," I shouted when Ana got too close. I didn't understand what she wanted to do, wheth
