로그인Andrew Kane (POV)The moment we almost entered the forest, I sensed a shift in the air. It was rigid like I could touch it but Marcus was concerned with catching up with me for a fight. I sighted the giant wolf almost the same size as mine but short.It was a black one with green eyes, it dashed out of nowhere, springing towards Marcus with a death glare in its eyes. I charged towards it quickly before it could get him, flying midair. I slammed hard into it, rolling on the ground backwards."That was close, looks like he's out for hunting," Marcus said, breathing heavily, his hands were on his knees as he observed the intruder. "Doesn't look like his first attempt, he could have sunk his teeth into your neck for all I know. Ignoring the enemy that lies in wait while you focused on me," I growled, my heart hammering in my chest for what could have happened if I didn't see it on time. "He doesn't look like anyone from here and as far as I'm concerned, he will be a good soldier if trai
Marcus Kane (POV)I sat at the beach listening to the waves of the sea as it clapped against the rock of the river bank. The night cold sent shivers through my spine, my skin pricked in goosebumps from my head to toe.The tiny shirt I wore was no match against the cold, as it gnawed at my gut. The sea shines brightly as the moon glared at it from above, leaving its reflection upon the waters.I couldn't think of another place to be after the conversation I had with Selene. It was the first of its kind in years and it was oddly relieving. I don't know how else to handle the truth I've found out today. Selene was heavy with pregnancy and it was just a matter of time before she put to bed. Her big tummy scares the shit out of me, wondering if it was indeed necessary to have a big tummy just to prove a point.My thoughts drifted to Clara, wondering how much she knew about her parents and while elder Rowan had tried to manipulate what I saw at the warehouse.Did he already know it was Cla
Selene BlackthornI sneaked into the kitchen after dinner before the maids could clear the plates. The mistake I made the last time almost landed me in exposing my mother's plan, which would have been terrible for our pack.Mother has drilled it into my soul, that whatever she did was for the pack and the good of everyone. And I knew better than to dance to other tunes. I answered the call before it ended. The number was private. I sigh in relief for putting my phone in silence and on my lap otherwise, it would have aroused the suspicion of the others."Get straight to the point," mother's voice sounded from the other end, cold and unaccommodating.A cold shiver ran through my spine as I held the phone tightly to my ear. Running my hand on my big tummy, beads of trepidation formed under my armpits as I cleared my throat to report to her."I think they have caught on to something, it is not clear yet because it was secured away from outsiders so I couldn't be near there. But it was ob
Marcus KaneThe three of us found our way to the terrace, Andrew was bent on having the ice cream date at home. He offered to order and pay for it instead. We were stunned to find ice cream of different flavors packed in the cartoon in his wing.I carried it and laid it on the glassy table which was at the center. I beat Andrew to open a strawberry ice cream for Elena before he could, he glared at me and Elena and I laughed at him."Marcus, thank you for this. Can't remember the last time I had this," Elena beamed at me, scooping her spoon into her ice cream."Don't mention love, anything for you and my nephew. I'm an uncle now. I should start taking responsibility," pride well up in my heart seeing the sincerity and love in her eyes."Need I remind you that I bought these not him," Marcus disgruntled, shoving his index finger to my face in warning."Well, he suggested it. He just knew how to make me feel better. I'm blessed to have you darling," Elena replied, that was when it dawned
Marcus Kane (POV)"What are you doing here, I thought you would be gone by now?" I closed the door behind me as I matched into the bedroom, rolling my sleeves up my elbow."Yeah, I will be on my way shortly, sorry for overstaying my welcome," Clara replied, getting down from the bed and pulling her purple sweater over her head.I rolled my eyes, walking to her side of the bed. I sat down by the edge, watching her pick her things although she was cornered between the wall and my legs. I laid down on the bed with my hands behind my head.Maybe I was the one always creating trouble for myself because I'm an expert at solving problems. There is peace when I just shut up, but then it wasn't entirely my fault. I was taken by surprise when I found her in the room, waiting for me. My heart did a back flip seeing her on my bed, relaxed.Clara glared at me, waiting for me to adjust so she could leave."What? Are you going somewhere? Do you need me to drive you?" I asked, feigning ignorance as s
Andrew Kane (POV)Before I knew what was happening Lena's tears soaked my shirt, I thought we were supposed to be happy about this whole thing. Why is she crying again? My heart broke at the sight of her teary eyes, I rocked her back and forth.I spent the next thirty minutes consoling this woman until she slept off. Ugh! Women and drama.I just laid her in bed when Marcus barged in noisily, panting like someone that was ambushed. I put my index finger on my lips, silencing him. Lena turned in her sleep but didn't wake up, I sigh in relief.I applied balm and a love plaster on her neck and thigh to prevent infection that could affect our baby. I looked around and made sure that everything was in place before I left, closing the door gently behind me."Speak," I motioned to Marcus as we headed towards my own wing."I have gotten a new lead and I believe that should lead us to the culprit, not hundred percent but then we would find traces of them. Come with med," Marcus was half walking

Elena Torres (POV)This time around I knew I was in trouble and had no escape from him. I turned around with a sheepish smile on my face, fidgeting with my fingers and toes."Follow me," Andrew said and rose up from his seat. I smirked, if he had gone hard on Blackthorn when he almost attacked Elde
Andrew Kane (POV)Selene was obviously enjoying the moment of banter between his father and my men. She sat down with her legs crossed over each other and her head raised in pride."I have had enough of the Northwest excuses for not coming to ask for my daughter's hand in marriage for alliances as p
Selene's PovI woke up this morning feeling dizzy and light-headed. I vomited a few times each time I smelled anything that worked against my stomach. Sitting down on the bed for several hours before gathering the energy to stand up.This wasn't a good feeling, not for me or the Southwest knowing f
