~Nathan's POVI blinked rapidly, unable to believe my ears."I beg your pardon?" I heard Albert asking.The guard glared at him, visibly pissed at having to repeat what he had just said."I… Said. Who. Is. Nathan?" he repeated slowly, as though Albert was a toddler.My mind raced as I realized that I had not heard the question wrong. The angry-looking guard standing stiffly in front of me and glaring at both me and Albert had just asked me who Nathan was.I thought long and hard on how to reply and came up with nothing.I turned to Albert, hoping his cunning mind would have come up with something, but he was also just as stumped and confused as I was.If the situation was so dire, I would have burst into laughter at the look on his face. For the first time, he finally looked like a boy of his real age and he was terrified.And I could not blame him for being scared. I was arrogant and had reasonable confidence in my strength and power as an Alpha, but I was not stupid or foolishly pro

~ Nathan’s POVThe sniveling maids turned to me, and they both gasped when they saw the look on my face. I had never hurt a woman before in my life, and I had never felt tempted to. But, seeing the devastated look that had crossed Bella's face at her words made my fangs and claws pop out.The one that had called me handsome gave me a hurt look before turning to her scared friend. They then hurriedly put down the tray of food and drink they had been carrying before scurrying out of the room. The one that had called me handsome gave me one last hurt and long-suffering look before following her friend out the door.I scoffed inwardly. She had looked at me as though she was my girlfriend and had just found out that I was cheating on her. I closed my eyes and began to take deep breaths, urging my anger to cool and my claws and fangs to retract. As an Alpha, my wolf was always quicker to rise to the surface than other werewolves and although it made me more powerful, I had always had to kee

~Isabella’s POVI finally slept off when I was eating and after crying and lying down on my bed. It was a relief to have fallen asleep, as my thoughts had been driving me crazy. I was woken up by Mrs Amber. She immediately hugged me when I sat up on the bed, crying and comforting me at the same time. When I saw her crying, the emotions I had buried within me a few days ago exploded within me and I joined her.We cried for more than a minute and when Mrs Amber was done, she comforted me, telling me that I would have another child who would stay with me till my old age.I thanked her for the comforting words and then I watched as she ordered her maids to come into my room. They were all carrying varieties of foods and drinks, those that could last one for more than two days. I gasped in awe when I saw these and then turned to her, telling her that her comforting words were more than enough and also explaining to her that I don’t really have much appetite.She smiled at me and then orde

~Nathan's POVI stared at the giggling maids who were looking at me acting coy and shy. I looked down at the bouquets of flowers they had stretched towards me and then back up at their faces.I looked around, to see if there was anyone hiding to take pictures or videos of the interaction.Although I had been a bit startled when I heard the maids’ confession, it was not the first time something like that would happen to me. In the past, I would have accepted the flowers and maybe even flirted with them for a while before sending them on their way, but this time around, I could not act like I used to.I scratched the back of my neck and stared at the two girls, uncomfortable with the attention, knowing my mate was in the building. I wanted to tell them that I had a mate, but I knew I couldn't. Just as I opened my mouth to politely reject the flowers, one of them gave me a wink and pouted her lips, pretending to throw me a kiss.I hesitated for a moment, unsure of how to handle the situat

~ Isabella’s POVBellaBella, wake up.Come on Bella, you have to get upBellaBella! You have to wake up!Bella! Wake up, now!I woke up with a gasp and with my whole body aching, each muscle and joint seemingly protesting against the ordeal it had endured. The dull throb in my stomach, which had been a relentless companion, had mercifully subsided, leaving me in a state of weary relief. As I opened my eyes, the harsh reality of my surroundings began to register. The memories of what had happened before I lost consciousness flooded in and I quickly shot up from my horizontal position, looking around the room, looking for Lilian.To my surprise, the familiar sight of my room greeted me. My initial disorientation gave way to a bewildered realization — I had been transported back to the confines of my room.How? I thought to myself.My gaze instinctively sought out the wall clock, its hands ticking away with the passage of time. It was night already and. I couldn't shake off the unsettl

~Isabella's POV"Where are they?" He asked as he stormed across the room to me, his eyes ablaze with anger. I stared at him, a mix of relief and apprehension flooding my senses. Lillian seized the opportunity to tell her lies."Alpha Damien, she's lying! Those two guys were here, I saw them. She's hiding them!" Lillian accused, her voice dripping with false sincerity.With false bravado, I turned, walked over to Lilian and then slapped her. She screeched as she put her hand to her cheek. She narrowed her eyes at me and took a threatening step towards me. All of a sudden, she seemed to remember that Alpha Damien was present. She took a very short, sneaky look at him and in the twinkle of an eye, the surly, furious expression on her face changed. Her mouth began to tremble and her eyes widened as they began to brim with fake tears, effectively turning her into a distressed damsel.If I wasn't in the situation I currently was in, I would have been utterly amazed, maybe even impressed by

~ Nathan’s POVI blinked at the guard to be sure I was not seeing or hearing things.Yep, he's there. I thought to myself as I blinked again and saw that he was still there.I looked at Albert at the exact same moment he looked at me, and he just shrugged when our eyes met, looking just as bewildered as I was.I was, at that moment, beginning to think that I might have become the next unsuspecting and gullible star of a prank show.I mean first the two maids that approached me outside… that was not too long ago. Now, this. Is this a joke? Am I being pranked? I thought to myself as my head began to swirl and swivel as I looked for a tiny camera.I was taken aback at the guard's words and to be sure I heard him right and why he wanted me, I asked him if he knew what he was saying.“I’m serious, I love you, Brad,” he said, scarily adamant on professing his love for me. His eyes were bloodshot and his jaw was clenched rigidly, hard enough that I worried he would shatter his teeth.For cry
Rejected, Now Wanted Sixty Four
~ Isabella’s POVBang!I heard a knock on my door and I immediately rose up as fast as I could from my position on the bed. I had been lying on my side, a hand placed unconsciously on my lower abdomen as I thought about several things. My mind had been racing and moving from what had transpired hours ago between Nathan and I and what had also happened between Lilian, Damien and I.I had gotten up so fast, worried that it might be Damien or Lilian again, that my head began to spin. And so I was staring in disbelief as Nathan, looking all sweaty and bloody, came in with an even more bloody Albert being carried in his arms. I shook my head slowly, wondering if I was beginning to see things."Bella." That raspy croak from Nathan snapped me out of my sleepy haze and I gasped as the full import of what I was seeing sank in… Albert and Nathan were covered in blood. Just then I noticed that Albert was unconscious. I gasped again and fully shot out of my bed.I hurried over to them and pushed
