Lori

The hospital room was quiet. Luca was stable now... the transfusion had worked, the poison was being flushed from his system. He was sleeping peacefully in his crib, his tiny chest rising and falling with each breath. Beside him, Ava dozed in her own bassinet, unaware of the chaos that had nearly torn her brother away.

Dante was beside me, his hand wrapped around mine. He hadn't left my side since he arrived. And Silas was still here too, hovering in the corner like a ghost who couldn't le

  • Rejected By The Hockey Captain, Claimed By His Coach    Chapter 86– The Humiliation

    RenéeThe tears were already flowing from my eyes before I could stop them. The damage had already been done and the guests went on to pretending that nothing weird was going on while Dante spoke his vows, his eyes never meeting mine. His neck still bore the mark of that Omega whore and the cameras were still clicking away.Dante had disappeared as soon as the vows were made, leaving me to stand on the aisle, and that was when the officiator escorted me back to my seat. I heard snickering behind me, and I knew at once that some of my friends had found the situation funny. I pretended that I couldn't hear them until the ceremony was over and the guests were entertaining themselves, and I had no other choice but to speak to them."Renée darling!" Queen's voice rang out as she rushed to gather me in her arms. "Oh you poor thing... Congratulations on your special day, though I must say that I expected so much better from what I saw. It's a good thing I didn't accept the request of those i

    Lori StewardI heard a frown coming from Dante's room, which made me rush in fear. I heard what he did yesterday when Renée pushed him took hard, and now he was suffering the consequences of it."Dante! Are you okay?" I rushed to him when I found him kneeling and clutching his chest in pain. His face was pale, and his shirt was still covered with sweat even after he had showered three times. It was more than twelve hours now, and I was glad that he had gotten past the worst phase of it."Lori..." He held my hand gently even with the pain he was going through. "I need you to hear me say this..." He was breathing really hard, still trying to keep his voice as steady as possible. "You know why I'm doing this, but I still want to let you know... That whatever happens today... Whatever vows I will be forced to say or papers I'm forced to sign... Just always know that I belong to you. That I chose you as my mate. Not Renée. Not anyone else... Just you...""Dante, you should be resting. The

  • Rejected By The Hockey Captain, Claimed By His Coach    Chapter 84– What did you say?

    Silas Crane"We found her, and our scouts were right. She has been hovering around our borders for a while now. We even heard that she lives not quite far from us now..." Patrick leaned against the wall of my home gym. "Do you think she has heard the news that you have a daughter now? Will she try to weasel herself back into your life?"I scoffed at that. Into my life? I'd be damned. "Well, I want to grant her that courtesy of having some self-respect after she has been humiliated, knowing fully well that her humiliation wasn't as bad as the one she made us do to Lori." I thought about that evening bitterly.Patrick was about to say something else when a knock came on my door, and one of my messengers stepped in, apologizing as he handed me four different letters."Alpha... These letters started coming in about a week ago, but we didn't give it any priority because it didn't come with a seal from a respectable pack member, but I think you need to see this..."I snatched the letter fro

    Lori StewardI was in the garden, enjoying the cool breeze while rocking my babies when I heard footsteps behind me. At first, I thought it was Mila bring out breakfast, but these footsteps were heavier and hurried, and not like Dante's own at all. Besides, Dante was at work, and he always texted before coming home. Same as Silas, who had, unfortunately, become part of our lives. I swivelled my head around to find the bulking figure of Alexander Dominic filling the space and making his way towards me with a frown on his face."Mr. Alexander." I said politely, knowing fully well that we didn't have any relationship for me to call him father since he didn't even approve of my relationship with Dante. "Welcome. Is there something I can help you with?""Something you can help me with?" He raised a brow with an arrogant look on his face. "The reverse is the case, Lori Steward." He said coolly. "You can't help me with anything in your state." He sat down, barely sparing a glance at his gran

    Silas CraneThe pack house felt different now. More lively to my ears, and it was as if a huge burden had been eased from my life."What's up, man?" Patrick fell in step beside me. "You've been grinning from ear to ear since you came back, and you're also playing with the kids. What's up? Is Lori awake? Did she accept you back after you apologised?"My face fell at the last part, but it didn't last long. I knew I had to take my time when it came to Lori. As time goes on, I'm sure she would soften up to me when I show her how remorseful I am."Well... A lot has happened, Patrick." I gave him a full smile. "And you're going to find out very soon."As if in cue, the council's errand boy bumped into us around the corner, his eyes wide with fear as he bowed towards Patrick and I."Good day, Alpha." He said politely. "The council requests an audience with you."I nodded and dismissed the boy immediately, and Patrick didn't even wait for him to disappear before pointing out distastefully. "A

    Dante DominicTo say I was shocked when I saw my father in my office the next morning would be a lie. I was expecting him and bracing for whatever hell he thought he could unleash on me.."I'm working." I told him in a clipped tone. "Is there anything you want?"He stopped at the door before scoffing and closing the door behind him. "You mean the work I gave you?" He tried his weak comeback as usual."In that case, I may as well turn in my resignation letter by the end of the week and be on my merry way back into scouting players for a new hockey team.""You wouldn't dare! You will go broke in a month. You wouldn't even be able to take care of your wife and her children that are partly yours.""Oh?" I raised my head, my mouth curving into a small smirk. "As far as you've just acknowledged that Lori is my wife, I'm all ears to listen to anything you want to say." I said pleasantly and leaned back into my chair.His expression soured instantly. "Not for long, Dante." He gave a tight smi

    Lori's POV"Stone the whore! She defiled the Alpha's bed!"Someone from the crowd roared in anger, and everyone else follows until over a hundred thousand werewolves were changing it.

    Lori's POV"I'm pregnant, Lori." Janie's voice was barely above a whisper, and I spun around in shock, my heart already swelling with joy for my best friend."Janie! Oh my goddess!" I rushed across the VIP suite and threw my arms around her, squeezing tight. "That's incredible! I'm so happy for you

    Lori's POV "You will be starting immediately as the team's medic. I will give you our training schedules." He paused and met my eyes from across the breakfast table. "I'm sure you're already well aware of it, but for formality sake." His cutlery barely made any noise on his plate. "Don't be late.

    Lori's POV "My children, oh my goodness. Are they... Are they...?" I sat up immediately, my hands moving around my belly, trying to see if I was feeling any pain there, if they were fine, if they were—"Your babies are fine, ma'am. Which is a miraculous thing after all your body has been through."
