Alana's POVPanic gripped me whole the moment I realized that my kids were not present in their rooms, it was as if my spirit had just left my body. I was frozen to the ground, my eyes wide and flooding with warm tears.“Cam, Chase, Cassy, Where are you?" I kept screaming, searching for them around the room_bathroom, through the open window. I was scared and confused, I didn't know what to do or where to look but I kept searching.The more I searched, the more it dawn on me that they were really gone, bringing down on my knees as I let out a scream. I couldn't stop my tears as they kept streaming down my face. I was scared and broken beyond words. Not my babies…no..they are innocent.I cried bitterly. My whole being trembling with barely suppressed tears, I was crumbled on the floor of the bathroom and drenched in tears. I ran back into their room and picked up the letter.it didn't make any sense to me. Who took them from me and why??Alex ran in through the door and I looked up
Alana's POVMy cheeks burn with fresh tears as I stood there, overwhelmed with rage. I really can’t see the connection. Why was Alpha Klaus was out to use my kids against me, making me choose between them or killing Kai._their father.Did he by any chance know about my past? He hasn’t mentioned it but something tells me he has a fair idea or maybe I’m thinking too much but I could tell something was definitely up.I don’t know what grudge he has against Alpha Kai but I can see he was determined to make him pay but why me or my kids? I still wouldn’t do it. Though he was the one who had rejected and banished me, I still wouldn’t hold it against him._ all of it was in the past now. I've forgiven him long ago, since moved on with my life but this? This was unimaginable and cruel."No! You’re asking her to do the impossible. You're sending her to her own death and you know it. We both know how powerful and ruthless that man is. " Alex said to Alpha Klaus trying to make him change his
Alana's POVSniffing back my tears and wiping the rest with the back of my hands, I struggled back on my feet and faced Alpha Klaus who stood there with a bored expression and acting as though he hasn’t just requested for someone to be killed.“One month. I need month to get it done” I demanded. Thirty days might not be enough but it would enable me find a way to rescue my children without killing anyone.“Three weeks, that’s all you have until your time is up! Now go!” He barked, a cruel smile curling the corner of his lip.I turned and hurried away, before running after Alex to apologize to him but he was already gone. I searched for him in the house, called out his name but he was nowhere to be found.He left me.Fresh tears stink my eyes at the emptiness in my life, his absence and that of my kids made my heart ache terribly. The house that used to be so warm and bubbly with joy and laughter was suddenly so small and suffocating.I wonder if Alex would ever forgive me, or look at
Alana's POVAlex stared at me for a moment before leaning in closer, “I do have a better plan actually, so come with me” He walked out of the door and I followed him as though I was been held by a spell.I was curious to find out what his plan were and most importantly, I was confused about his willingness to help me even after everything I’d done to cause him pain and loose his trust.What does his help means? That he has forgiven me or willing to look past my mistake and help me achieve my mission.I followed him into one of the smaller room beside the cottage outside and over there he picked up one of his training attire before handing it to me."Take it and put it on" He said, giving me his training clothes. I shot him a skeptical look before i took it from his outstretched hands but made no move to do as he had asked. "What is this for?" I couldn't help but ask. I was confused, I had no idea of what he was planning or why he needed me to wear it even. Does his grand plan involve
Alana POVAlex made me train with him some more before he decided to call it a day. I was beyond exhausted and drenched in sweat. Immediately we got back home, I changed out of my training attire and I got into the bathroom to wash myself up. I was sore and aching all over. There were bruises on my body, my palm covered in blister. I filled the bath basin with warm water before sinking inside, wincing in pain as the water hit my bare flesh.I was still washing myself when I noticed the bathroom door slide open and I turned around to find Alex standing there. He was naked!, His rock abs full on display and causing a gasp to escape my mouth.My eyes quickly moved away from him, not sure what he wanted, my cheek turning red almost immediately. I felt his presence beside me before I heard his voice spoke out, “Kota, look at me”I opened my eyes and stared up at him, noticing his head was lowered to my level as he stared closely at my face, the gesture not threatening as I realized he h
Kai’s POV I walked through the large hallway of my pack house, my steps heavy with the weight of my troubling thoughts. It had been two years since Alana's demise, and the pain was still as fresh as ever. My heart was still bleeding like an open wound. Everything still feels just like yesterday, her memory was rooted deep in my mind and hunting me like never before. I look fit and well on outside but deep within my beating heart, I was nothing more than a tormented soul whose happiness has been shredded by the ghost of my past mistakes. I should have moved on by now, forgiven myself even but something kept echoing in my mind, pulling me down the same lonely road, time and time again and leaving me powerless against my tormentors. My days are spent in endless pack activities and training just to keep my thought distracted but my nights were devoid of sleep as I was filled with restlessness and despair, constantly driving me to the point of loosing my control. My only escape was shi
Alana POVThe next morning came earlier than I had expected, forcing me to struggle out of bed with a grunt. I walked into the bathroom to begin my morning routine while Alex went down to make breakfast for us to eat before returning to the training ground. The day promises to be a tough one ahead so one has to do the necessary. My bones ached and protested for me to return back to bed and sleep some more but I pushed myself out the door, not that I had much a choice. Alex was not about to give me any and the thought of my children in that man's possession won’t even let me back down from picking up my wooden swords when he tossed it across to me some moment later.Days turned into nights and the intensity of my training with Alex grew even more demanding of me. I was been driven by an unrelenting desire to perfect every skill being taught to me—the utter desperation and the undying need to get everything over with and reclaim my children once more drove me even more mad.Nothing cou
Kai's POVA week has gone by already since I asked Nadia to marry me and become my Luna. I sat on the edge of my couch in my room, the weight of the upcoming ceremony heavy on my shoulders. Exactly two years ago, I was seated in this exact same spot, getting ready to swear my love and devotion to Alana as wife and future Luna. Everything was just like yesterday. The raw emotion I had felt, the pure joy that had was a total contrast to what I feel now.Today was the day I would officially make Nadia my Luna but I don’t feel anything. No rush of excitement or eagerness to go down and meet anyone. Adam was here a while ago to remind them it was time but I just couldn’t get myself to stand up and go.Maybe I’m wrong to want to commit to her when I feel nothing for her but the pack needs a Luna and can’t be put off much longer. The responsibility of being the Alpha was not something I took lightly, but it didn’t change the fact that, the thought of the ceremony that was about to take pla
