ENZO’s POV. Michelle’s scream alerts me and I immediately sit up, before I can even ask her anything, my eyes catch the blood stain on the bed and for real, my heart skips a beat. I didn’t notice the blood when I came to lie down beside her so how did this happen? My mind is in turmoil right now, I am not sure if she is having a miscarriage or it is because of the tumor. “Snap out of it” my wolf growls inside of me and I snap back to reality. Tears are streaming down her eyes and she looks scared, very scared. “Hey” I hold onto her cheek, “I will take you to the hospital, okay?” “My babies” her muffled voice reaches my ears, “I can not lose my babies, Enzo. I….” Michelle’s voice trails off. “You will not lose your babies” I try to assure her, even if somewhere in my mind I am scared. For Michelle to refuse terminating the pregnancy, she must really want to keep the pregnancy. How will she feel if she actually loses it even if technically I want her to get rid of the babi
MICHELLE’s POV. Standing in front of the mirror, I can not help but admire myself. The knee length dress looks so good with the gemstones on it. The slit running up my thighs gives it a more subtle look and I can not help but fall in love with it. I am certain Enzo designed this himself seeing how simple yet stunning it looks. How can a man be versed in a lot of things, surely he is the moon goddess’s favorite and I can swear on that. My musing is cut short when the door opens and Enzo saunters in. For a moment he is speechless as his eyes travel over me. He must love the dress on me seeing the soft look embroidered on his face. “Wow!!” Left his lips as he begins to take slow steps towards me, “you look breathtaking, Michelle” “Did you design this?” I ask him as he comes to a stop in front of me, his eyes still on me and how I want to pounce into his embrace and sniff in his scent. “2019 collection” he answers, “you are the first person wearing it, it has been in tha
ENZO’s POV. Snaking my hand around her waist, I deepen the kiss and find her tongue. Something about her keeps drawing me in and I just want to hold her in my embrace forever without letting her go or letting her shed a single tear. With this, my grip around her tighten. I am afraid she might slip away if I let her go and I am not ready for that. Her kiss is slow and gentle, full of love and warmth. The more we kiss, the more Michelle presses her body against mine and I totally understand that body language. She wants me and I want her too. I want to rip off her clothes and make her mine. Her scent is becoming too strong for me and that feeling envelops me again. Deep Inside of me, I can already feel it. The urge to mark her and place my scent on her. The urge to sniff her and get accustomed to her scent becomes very strong and my wolf groans. This is it, I can feel it inside of me. She belongs to me right from the first day I set my eyes on her, the mo
NICHOLAS’s POV. A light groan leaves my lips as I close the document I am reading and I press my back against the chair. It’s been like two weeks since the divorce saga and all I can say is Natalia is settling in well but the workload is a bit too much. When Michelle was around, she helped me take care of the pack house while I focused on work and now because of Natalia's pregnancy, I told her not to work and always rest. I scoff; am I actually thinking about Michelle right now? She is part of my past and I am going to make sure she remains there. My thoughts are cut off when the door opens and Natalia saunters into the study dressed to kill as usual. She never missed a chance to impress me with her perfect body and she has her hair pulled up in the hairstyle that I love the most. “You are still working?” She asks as she walks up to me, “it’s already late” “I just have to finish up with these documents” I tell her, “maybe in like thirty minutes I will be done” “Hmmm
ENZO’s POV. Tonight has been the most overwhelming night of my life and I need a lot of time to process what has happened but right now I am seated in my study with Melisa sitting in front of me. I had helped Michelle go to bed after we got back and we both decided to keep everything that happened a secret until we are able to figure out everything that’s going on. She had to also rest early because she is supposed to go to the hospital in the morning and that’s why I put her to bed early. I just want to finish with Melisa and crawl into bed beside her. With this at the back of my head, I press my back against the chair and turn my attention to the deranged Melisa. “Have the healer checked your wounds?” I ask her. “Yes master, she gave me some herbs to take” “Tell me, what did Diego do to you?” “He didn’t do anything to us at first, master,” Melisa begins to talk, “he kept us in separate rooms until two days ago when he asked us to tell him your schedule and how yo
MICHELLE’s POV. It was about 12 midnight when a knock resonated on the door and I pulled my eyes open. I was expecting to see Enzo curled up beside me but rather his sister is the one standing in front of my door with a huge grin on his face. “Izzy?” “Hmm, Enzo said to make sure you take your drugs. I guess I am going to be doing the nanny duty now” “Don’t mind him, I already have my alarm set for that” I tell her, “where is he though?” “He went out to Santa Monica, he will be back soon” At the mention of Santa Monica my forehead creases into a frown, he didn’t tell me he was going to Santa Monica. “You should take your drugs though” After she is done, Izzy turns around and walks towards the elevator while I make my way back into the room again It is clearly after midnight and he is in Santa Monica? Slumping back on the bed, I pick up my phone and dial his number but it didn’t even connect. What the hell is he doing? I try to connect with him but i can not, i
MICHELLE’s POV. Sitting in front of the doctor, my heart continues to beat fast against my rib cage. How I wish Enzo was here with me but he has a meeting that he can not miss but he promised to be here soon. With him beside me, I will surely feel better because right now; my whole being is in turmoil. The old man clears his throat before raising his head to meet my gaze. “Miss Michelle” he presses forward against the chair and drops the document on the table, “I have gone through your file” “What did you find?” Lawrence asks him. “It is just as you have said, we can not delay the surgery anymore, you have less than a week to live. The tumor has covered every part of your womb” My heart drops to my feet as his words filter into my ear. This is not the kind of news I was expecting, I thought a miracle was going to happen but I guess I am only a pawn in the hands of the moon goddess. “So I am going to die?” “It is a very slim chance, ma’am” the old doctor says, “we
ENZO’s POV. Sitting in front of the sea of eyes before me, my mind is not even on the meeting going on right now. Michelle went into surgery four hours ago and how I want to be there for her but I am stuck in this meeting which she made me promise to attend. Looking back at my watch, I still have an hour before everyone is done with their pitch and I am not sure how long I can take it anymore. “Can you not go a little faster?” My voice resonates in the entire room and the man on the podium bows a little. “Yes sir” he answers and I roll my eyes at him as my thoughts go back to Michelle. I want to be beside her and let her know that everything will be fine. My thoughts are interrupted when the mobile in front of me begins to ring and when I see the caller ID, my heart skips a beat. Michelle is surely putting me on my toes. I pick up the phone and press it against my ear. “Tell me” “There is trouble, Enzo” Lawrence says from the other end and I immediately jump out of
ODETTE’s POV.The time is already past 8pm but Malachi is not back yet. He left me at the office a while back and he hasn’t returned yet. The driver asked if he should take me home but I refused. He told me he was coming soon so I am going to wait for him.A gentle knock on the door jolts me out of my thoughts and I raise my head to see Emma saunter into the office.“Ma’am” she bows lightly, “it is already late. How about I ask the driver to send you home. Maybe the boss might not come back”“Did you try to call him?”“He didn’t answer my call, ma’am” she answers and I let out a sigh. Where the hell is my husband?Just as I open my mouth to talk, my mobile starts to ring and Jayden’s name pops up.“Excuse me” I pick up my phone and press it against my ear, “hello”“Odette” his voice filters through, “can you go to the office for me? I left a file on dad’s desk and no one is allowed to enter his office aside from the three of us. I have a meeting with Mr Ling in a few minutes, I need t
MALACHI’s POV.I had just finished signing a document when a soft tap comes on the door and it pushes open to reveal her ever gorgeous face. The day for the release of survivor is fast approaching and I have a lot of work to be done. The movie is already promising to be a big hit, I can only guide it on the right part.Just yesterday, I received news that Bryer injured her eyes and was rushed to the hospital. She never amazes me, she has always been someone who would rather die than let herself be embarrassed. Wolves don’t have the ability to heal themselves when it comes to their eyes so she knows exactly what she is doing and I know exactly why I have let her be in the hospital in cuffs.“Hey baby” Odette leans into my embrace and presses a light kiss on my lips, “I brought you lunch, you should take a break and eat. You have been really busy”“Okay sweetheart” I am not hungry but I don’t want to argue with her. She has become really sensitive these days. Even after she was done wit
BRYER’s POV.It has been one hell of a week. I felt like I died and woke up several times because my body is tired at this point. Malachi made do his threat, injecting me with substances and pushing me to the point of losing my primal control. He really is a nutcase and I have learnt first hand what I shouldn’t do.My whole body aches, my sense is muddled and it feels like I am going to cry all because of that bitch. It is her, she is the only reason why I have become this person that I am now.The iron doors open up and a usual face walks in. He has been coming to check in on me almost every hour, carrying out his boss’s orders without delay. He used to be one I know when I was in the pack but I guess ever since Malachi announced I was no longer part of the pack, everyone turned their backs on me.“Have you come to hurt me again?” I ask but instead he laughs.“You are already a mess, Bryer. I just derive joy in seeing you this one. You caused the alpha a lot of trouble, this time yo
ODETTE’s POV.I was waiting for Malachi to return, my attention on my phone when a shadow cast upon me and I raise my head to meet his gaze…Zachary. I haven’t seen him since I got back, the last I heard was that he was being reinvestigated after what Bryer did but what is he doing here? I didn’t take him to be someone who would visit the mall at this time then I see it, the lady behind him.The sight makes me scoff, he has jumped into the arms of another woman after Bryer left him. Without saying anything, I return my attention to my phone, not caring about his presence anymore.“Wait for me in the car” I hear him tell her and the lady immediately walks away. Still, I don’t raise my head from my phone. He is not worth my attention even in the slightest.“Odette” he calls out to me but I continue to ignore him. Now I wish Malachi is back already.“Odette” he calls again and this time I hiss lightly, finally raising my head to meet his gaze.“What do you want, Zach?”“I just need to ta
MALACHI’S POV.With my arm wrapped around her naked body, I bury my face in the crook of her neck and fill my lungs with her scent. The time is past 10PM but none of us have taken any time to sleep. I like the fact that we can stay in each other’s arms and just be ourselves.“What are you thinking about, my love?” She asks me, “you have been in thought for a while now”“I’m just thinking about how a lot has happened in the past few months, wifey” I tell her, snuggling closer to her, “but most especially I love the fact that we are together no matter what”“Should we go for a drive?” Odette suggests, pulling her body to a sitting position, “the weather is really nice”“You really want to go for a drive?” I ask and she nods vigorously.“We could get some ice cream on the way and even some chocolates too”“I should have known it’s your cravings speaking and not you” I tell her, pulling my naked body off the bed, “fine, let’s get dressed okay? I will get you everything you want”“Thank y
ODETTE’s POV.The moment I hear those words, I abruptly pull my skirt down and jump off the bed, Malachi’s lips tilt into a mocking smirk as he lowers himself on the bed.“You are going to go in there reeking of sex, babe”I roll my eyes to the back of my head, look at him talking like it’s not his fault. He is the one who put me in this position in the first place. Note to self: never have sex in the hospital where your father and your husband are both admitted” Walking towards the mirror, I start to fix my hair and my clothes.“You look okay, baby” he says to me, “you should go and see father in law now”“Hmm” I nod, “I will tell them you are taking a rest, okay?”“I will get changed and be there okay?”“But…“I am fine” he subtly cuts me off, his gaze softening, “I will come soon, okay?”“Okay baby” pressing forward, I kiss him lightly on the lips, running my index finger over his lips to clean a little bit of my gloss, “and make sure you take a shower” my gaze falls on his erect
MALACHI’s POV.Walking into the room, I see my wife seated beside her sleeping father, her head on the bed beside him and seeing that she didn’t raise her head when I walk in, I know for a fact that she is sleeping. Walking gently towards her, I squat beside her before tapping her gently.“Baby”Odette stirs in her sleep and opens her eyes, a light yawn leaves her mouth.“Baby, you are back?”“Hmm” I nod, “I am back. Come, I will take you home so you can take some rest, okay?”“I don’t want to leave dad alone” she sounds adamant.“You are not leaving him okay? Kayden and Ayana are both outside. They will look after him till your mum gets back. You are pregnant, remember? You don’t need all of these stress right now”She lets out a sigh, I hate seeing her in this kind of situation. How I wish I was in her stead.“Okay? You need all the rest you can get now. I don’t want you getting sick in your condition, my love” I cup her face lightly and press a kiss against the tip of her nose, “pl
BRYER’s POV.I let out a little gasp as I push open my eyes but I am met with ultimate darkness and silence. The ground underneath me is cold and it is seeping through my skin. The last thing I remember was someone walking up to me when I was leaving the mall earlier and the rest is history.Who dared to do this to me? Who dared to capture me and put me in a position like this? Could it be Zachary? I ratted him out to the police and he is getting investigated again or it could be Odette. I mean, I harmed her father and landed him in this hospital. It wasn’t that hard to do since their cleaning lady had a gambling addiction, I was able to buy her off as soon as I talked to her but she wouldn’t have that time to have me captured right? Or was it Malachi? Did he do this?I have a lot of questions but no one to ask, not when this place looks like my nightmare. Wolves have the ability to see even in the dark but for some reason, I am unable to do that. What the heck is happening? Who was
ODETTE’s POV.Despite being upset with him, I can’t go against him and that’s why I sat my ass on the bed when he told me to.I can think clearly now, I went a bit overboard at the hospital but if I didn’t meet him, Bryer wouldn’t have come into our lives so my anger was a bit justified. I am going to find her and I am going to tear her into a million pieces, scatter her remains all over the world and make sure she regrets it for the rest of her life.The rain is still falling heavily and I wouldn’t be able to go back to the hospital anytime soon so I decided to call my mum and from the tone of her voice, nothing has happened yet.“The doctors are going to check him for the drugs” she says, “you shouldn’t worry too much, my darling”I sniff back a tear, this hurts more than anything I can even think of, “I am sorry mum” I tell her, “dad is in this condition because of me”“It is not because of you, my baby. Don’t worry, your father will be fine. You should make up with your husband, y
