~Nathan’s POVDamien chasing me out of the room pissed me off but I had to hold back to avoid getting caught so that I would be able to save Bella from him. I hid my angry emotions successfully and left the room with Conan.“You can sleep in our room if you are not on duty,” Conan said to me.“I have to stay back and guard the Alpha,” I replied to him. He nodded his head and went to his room to sleep. I stood by the door to keep watch on both Bella and Damien. I did so to keep eyes on Bella so that Damien wouldn't try to hurt her if he knew someone was standing by the door.Unbeknownst to me that he was the perfect definition of a devil as I heard Bella screaming for help. I had heard a lot about him as a ruthless and wicked person but I expected him to have a little sympathy for others. I thought long about how to go in to save Bella without getting caught as my emotions were already clouding my actions.I finally barged in and then I saw Bella curled up on the floor naked. She slug
~Nathan’s POV I froze and was a bit scared when I heard Damien’s words. I thought I had been caught but then he moved away from me. “So I want you to keep watching her and report to me all her daily activities, who she met with and how she relates with them,” he said.I closed my eyes, sighing in relief and then bowed to him, acknowledging his orders. He returned back to sit and continued smoking.“Bella is a good and nice girl but I feel bad for her for meeting someone like me,” Damien said, his expressions unreadable.“Do you agree with others that I’m wicked and ruthless?” He asked, a sad expression spread across his face but was soon replaced with a stoic look.I was silent as I watched him. He looked at me, smiling sadly. “Why are you not saying anything?” He asked. As I was about to reply to him, Conan opened the door and came out of the room. He bowed to Damien and told him that he was able to stop Bella’s bleeding but it would take a while for her to regain her consciousnes
~ Nathan’s POVI quickly wiped away my tears and stayed rooted on my knees, acting as if I was comforting Bella.“I’m sorry about your loss, Mrs Bella,” I said.“What’s going on here?” Conan said.It’s Conan.I sighed in relief when I heard his voice as I already thought it was Damien who had come in. I stood up and turned to him. “Mrs Bella had woken up and won’t stop crying. I was only trying to comfort her,” I said, calmly. “Oh…” He said as he walked closer to me.“Was that why you were crying?” He asked, peering at my face while he was smiling.“What?” I asked, feeling surprised, barely able to hold back myself from reaching up to my face to touch my cheeks.“C’mon, Brad. You are a man. You claimed you were comforting Bella and yet you cried alongside her, how did you expect her to react?” He said, still smiling.“I'm just a bit sensitive, is that all right?” I asked him, smiling awkwardly.“Yes," he said.I felt silent and I watched Conan as he walked over to Bella’s bedside. Sh
~Damien’s POVI never knew losing a child could be so painful until I experienced it myself. I was so shocked and angry when Conan broke the news to me. Bella’s tirade blaming me for the death of her unborn child hurt me deeply as I thought about my mother.My mother must have felt the same way Bella felt at the moment when she lost me to my father. My ruthless mode was activated as I became more furious when Bella wouldn’t stop hitting and shouting at me. My dark eyes turned red and then I forced myself on her despite her pleas. I pondered so hard on my acts as soon as I got inside the room prepared for me by the village head. I sighed heavily reminiscing on how I had held the pale and unconscious Bella in my arms screaming for someone to get me a doctor. I brought out my phone and dialed my Beta’s phone number. He picked up instantly and with an angry tone, I ordered him to get the doctors and nurses at the palace ready very early tomorrow morning to take good care of Bella. I hu
~ Nathan’s POV “I’m not dying, Jones,” I said to him, angrily.He laughed out loud. I could tell her covered his mouth with his hands by how his laughter vibrated.“Relax, Nathan. I didn’t mean it that way,” he said, still laughing.I rolled my eyes, asking him why he asked me if I was dying. “The dialogue was from a movie scene I just watched, it was so hilarious as you had just the same tone as the actor,” he said.“I know you can’t just die like that, Nathan,” he added.Just then, I remembered that Jones doesn’t like watching movies, and because of that he never bought a television. “Where are you?” I asked him.“Hmm, you noticed that I wasn’t in my room despite how much I tried to hide the fact that I was in the palace,” he said playfully.“And why are you in the palace?” I asked again.“Didn’t you ask me to cover up for you? I’m in the palace to fill in for your absence,” he said.“I did ask you to cover up for me but I didn’t approve that you can stay in my room, Jones. Get
~Nathan’s POVI was still in shock as I watched the soldiers going from one house to another, killing everyone including the younger ones and burning their houses. Those who struggle or fight with them are beaten and taken as captives. My gaze turned to Damien, he was smiling coldly as he went on a rampage, killing anyone that came his way. He was shouting at the top of his voice, ordering the soldiers to kill without mercy.I knew he was ruthless and wicked, but I didn’t know he would go this far. His gaze showed no mercy and he killed without thinking. “Why are you standing not doing anything?” One of the soldiers shouted at me.“This isn’t the first time you are witnessing the Alpha in a rampaging mood, so get your ass together,” he added.I moved away from where I was staying and went to a shady and secretive area. I pulled out my phone and sent a message to Jones. I took a short video of the soldiers and Damien killing every member of the Shadow pack. I sent the video to Jones
~ Nathan's pov I racked my brain to come up with a reasonable excuse, one that would not blow my cover, but at the same time, would not require me to give the boy up and expose him. However, as hard as I tried to come up with one, my brain chose to fail me at that moment. I did not expect Damien and some of the soldiers to have seen where I had been hiding with Albert. I turned back to look at Albert who was hiding behind me and I could see that he was scared, his body was trembling and his eyes were pleading for me to save him."Are you deaf?" Damien yelled at me again when I stayed silent as though I was indeed deaf.I returned my gaze to Damien and just as I was about to get down on my knees to apologize and plead for mercy, as I couldn't come up with any excuse, Albert came forward. He confidently greeted Damien with a bow and introduced himself, wisely leaving out his last name. Damien, who was still in an angry mood, gave the boy a condescending look.I subtly inched forward. At
~ Nathan’s POV“Damien killed your father?” I asked to be sure of what I just heard.“Father locked us in a room to protect us from Damien when he heard of his arrival at the entrance of our pack,” Albert said.“I peeped through and witnessed how he had killed my father angrily,” he added.I was silent as I didn’t know what else to say to the boy. He only stared at me, probably waiting for me to say something but I was short of words.“You will save my sister from him, right?” He asked me.“Sure, I will do all my possible best to save her,” I said to him.He smiled at me and we finally got to understand what was going on around us, the fight had already stopped. Several houses were burned down and corpses were lying all around. I watched as the captives, crying for help, were being transported to Damien’s pack. Damien also returned back to the pack with the captives and some of the soldiers, leaving few soldiers behind to clean up after him.“I will make sure Damien dies at my hand som
