LENA. One of the teachers, I had been nice to her for some time now, and she gave me the information I needed concerning scott’s aunt. She said her name was Monica. Great! “Lena, I really need you to understand that giving personal information is not right with work ethics but you are a good person and I can trust you, right?” She asked. She was correct. She could trust me. This was the way I got Monica’s personal information, including her Facebook page. Going through the front page, I did not expect to see her in a picture with Jenny. My eyes went wide, and it was so unexpected. I stared at the picture of Monica for some time, realizing she sort of looked familiar. The kids were in school now and I got a break from work. I had been working online for sometime now, mostly handling the shy or busy patients who couldn't come for physical meetings. For a second, I felt a wave of cold blow on me but it wasn't the good kind, but the odd one. The one that came with pain. I often
LENA. My wolf was right, it would catch up with me but there was no other way to stop the persistent pain. After losing my mate - killing him- I started to feel a heart wrenching pain in my heart, a burning sensation that spread over. I had to take multiple painkillers to stop it. Yet, this painkillers could slowly kill me because one of the key ingredients was mild wolfsbane. It was never supposed to be overused. Unfortunately, I had to use it twice in one day to reduce the pain. After dinner, I put the kids to sleep. They didn't sleep though, not yet. Isna was staring at me as I read ‘The Napping House’ to them. Israel was playing with his motorcycle toy, gently riding it along his side. He looked like he wasn't interested in what I was reading. “Mom, when are we going to meet daddy?” Isna asked, cutting me short. Shocked, I lifted my head. She was looking at me. Why have they suddenly started to ask about their father? Did someone tell them something? “Maybe because
LENA. I couldn't be mistaken, it was Alexander but how come he had been with Jenny for the longest time. Even before I had my kids. Jenny once told me she was in love with a guy named Xandy. She told me how she fell in love with him. She also mentioned that he was the one I slept with; the father of my kids. Could it be that Xandy was the father of my kids and also Alexander? My mind spiraled at the thought. It couldn't be right. How was it possible? That I had slept with Alexander that night? If I had, then I would have remembered. His scent would have made me aware that it was him. Plus, the pictures and videos showed didn't tally. Alexander went crazy for years and was in the pack, how could he be in videos and pictures with Jenny? It wasn't making any sense. “Then why has Jenny been running from you and who is this new guy?” My wolf asked. I couldn't respond. I was confused as well. Mom returned to the kitchen, she walked over to the kitchen cabinet and she continued to
LENA. ONE YEAR LATER. “Mom,” I heard Isna call me while I was in the kitchen with my mom. Lucia decided that we were family and we shouldn't be apart. I really needed someone hence our relationship was needed. It had been one year since the issue with Jon Murray. We bought a house on neutral ground and I also changed my workplace. The hospital still reminded me of my past. Alexander’s death. It hasn't been easy moving on, I couldn't. Not when every night I had dreams of him. Wet dreams and whenever I woke up, I found my pussy dripping. Lately, I had been feeling weak and I knew it was the death of my mate that caused it. Anyway, Isna ran into the kitchen while mom was preparing lunch and I was working on my laptop. She carried a pink barbie bag which mommy got her the last time she went to Dubai. She got a set of it for Riana’s and Nathan’s children as well. Riana and Nathan are her kids with Jon Murray. They are really nice and they love Isna and Israel so much. We became
LENA. I went with the policemen, unaware of what was going on. When we arrived, they took me to the interrogation room. There was a man in the room and next to him was a woman, almost wailing. She looked sad and her arms were folded over her chest. Her face looked familiar but I couldn't quite place it. Moreover, I was here for something more important. What the hell was going on?“Do you know this man, Lena?” The police man who took me here asked. I stared at the man, his face looked doomed. As if he already knew his fate and was in fact unredeemable. I shook my head. I had never seen him.“This is the man who hired an assassin to get you killed.” “Please stop, my husband would never do such a thing!” The woman cried, and she wiped her tears again. I turned to the police man. “What are you saying?” I asked, exhausted at this time. I just want to be back in my home, prepare dinner before my kids get back from their nanny’s place. He was a black police officer and he looked
LENA. He stopped breathing. Gone. Dead. My mate. I could feel the tether break. I could no longer smell him. I was staring at the corpse of my mate. No. Oh my god. No. What did I do? Why did I kill him? I moved my legs to him and fell next to him. I grabbed his shirt, and lean the side of my head on his chest, to hear his heart. As expected, he wasn't breathing. I had killed him. I paused. And stared at his lifeless body. He was really gone. My mate was gone. Oh no. I killed him. Tears ran down my cheeks. I sat next to him, cupping his cheeks. In this moment, I remembered who he used to be. My teacher. I watched him from afar when he taught. Even before I knew he was my mate, he always stood out to me. He was handsome. Well-spoken. The best. Even when he made me feel small, I still smiled when I thought about him. In those moments, I never thought that a day like this would come. A day when I would stab him with po
