WHITNEY'S POVI could see a mixture of hatred and anger on Lilian's face as we gazed at each other. Her face was heavily made up as usual. I have often wondered why she wears heavy makeup cos it doesn't make her look beautiful. As far as I am concerned, it makes her look uglier, more like a clown at a circus. She was dressed in a cream tank top and a black mini pencil skirt. On her feet were a pair of black leather flat shoes. Even though she was a poor dresser and terrible at makeup, her clothes were usually lovely and looked expensive. I have seen her several times in the mornings without makeup and she always looks kind of better to me. If she loves make-up so much and she knows that she can't do without it, she should wear a very light one. Her mother, Luna Viola wears makeup well which enhances her beauty and she also dresses impeccably. I have never seen anyone that dresses better than her or that looks so good on makeup. If I was Lilian's sister or we we
WHITNEY'S POV For a moment, there was pin-drop silence as I stared at Alpha Don and I could sense that all eyes were on me. How could a walk to the packhouse suddenly turn into a series of unexpected events? I wondered for the umpteenth time. "I said what is going on here?" Alpha Don bellowed as his voice went a pitch higher. "This evil girl has killed our daughter," I heard Luna Viola wail behind me. I gasped in fear and whirled around. I saw Luna Viola as she knelt beside Lilian. She cradled her head and gazed at her face as tears streamed down her face. Lilian's eyes were closed and she looked lifeless. Oh, my goodness! I hope I have not killed her. If she is dead, I am as good as dead myself. Oh, Moon Goddess, please, don't let her die! I prayed in my heart. I averted my eyes to Henry and I saw his brow creased with worry as he stared at his mother crying over Lilian who lay in her arms in an unconscious state. I watched him as he walked briskly to where
WHITNEY'S POVAs Luna Viola approached me with rage and utter hatred in her eyes, I averted my eyes to Alpha Don and he was staring at the Luna with fury in his eyes. Henry was looking at me with anxiety and Lilian was standing with arms akimbo. A naughty smile was playing across her face and her eyes sparkled with glee.When Luna Viola was a couple of inches away from me, on impulse, I took a few steps backward. In a split second, she rushed at me and slapped me hard on the face. I was dazed and staggered. I tried to regain my balance but I hit my leg against a stone and lost balance. I fell flat to the ground with a thud.Suddenly, I heard Lilian laughing hysterically. I quickly sat up and was wiping sand from my body as Luna Viola stood in front of me."Yes! That serves you right, you little witch! It is because of you that I am being humiliated. You had the temerity to slap my daughter. You didn't consider your wretched low life before you lay your filthy hand on her, huh? You thi
WHITNEY'S POVHenry and I entered the house and went up the stairs without uttering a word to each other. I entered my room before him and he shut the door behind him.I walked to my bed and lay down while he sat on the chair facing me."Whitney, I am sorry about all that happened. I apologize on behalf of my mom and sister. I should have listened to you when you said you didn't want to go with me to meet my mom. It's my fault. I take the blame for everything," he said sadly looking guilt-ridden."Henry, you don't have to blame yourself or feel guilty about it. It has already happened. Perhaps, it was destined to be. If you look at it from another perspective, it wasn't all bad. At least something positive came out of it.""Are you talking about dad's intervention?""Yes. Your dad's intervention quelled the storm cos if he hadn't come, the situation could have been very bad. I don't want to imagine what would have happened." "Yeah, you are right. I hope things will change now that da
LUTHER'S POV"I find it so hard to believe that dad could hit mom," I said with an incredulous look as I gazed at my mom."I am finding it difficult to believe as well. I feel it is a dream and I have pinched myself several times to wake up but sadly it is reality. Your father and I have had a series of misunderstandings over the years for over seventeen years we have been mates and he has never laid his hands on me. Today is the first time he hit me and it's all because of that wretched servant. The most painful part is that Whitney watched me being humiliated by your father because of her," she said as tears streamed down her face."Mom, I am sorry about what dad did to you. I wish I can promise you now that it will never happen again but I can't since dad has the final say in the pack as the Alpha. However, I want to assure you that once I become the Alpha, he will never lay his hands on you again." "Luther, even when you become the Alpha, your power will be limited to the affairs
LUTHER'S POVA week after my mom and sister came to my room, my parents, Henry, Lilian, and I were at the dining table in the morning and were having breakfast of grilled chicken, vegetables, and cheese with the option of tea and coffee.My dad and mom were sitting at each end of the table and I was sitting at the seat on the right side of my father while Henry was sitting on his left directly opposite me. Lilian was sitting beside Henry. We were all silent as we ate and the only sounds in the dining room were the clattering of cutleries on dishes.Three days ago, there was seemingly tension between my dad and mom, perhaps, as a result of the incident concerning Whitney that happened last week. However, they seem to have reconciled their differences cos I could see them smiling faintly at each other from time to time. They both seem to have gotten over the incident even though I know that it will continue to linger on their minds, perhaps, for the rest of their lives.As we ate, from
LUTHER'S POV"That was a terrible dream. I have never had such a horrifying dream in my entire life. But how could Whitney be the only one to save me when I had almost given up and thought I was going to die? Where did she get such power from? Whitney can never have such power. How can an Omega who is yet to have a wolf ever have such power? That must be a stupid and meaningless dream!" I muttered as I glanced at the wall clock."Oh, my goodness! Dad will be very angry with me. It's almost an hour since he told me to come and see him in his room. I hope he has not gone out," I muttered as I quickly stood up and slipped on my footwear. I walked briskly to the door and left the room in a hurry as I shut the door behind me.I walked hurriedly down the hallway and stopped in front of my father's door. I took in a deep breath and rang the doorbell.My heart was racing as I waited for him to answer. After some seconds, there was no response and I rang the doorbell again. I hope he has not
WHITNEY'S POV It is now a month and three days since Alpha Don tried to seduce me in his room and asked me to be his secret lover. I was in my room and clad in my undies. I was brushing my hair as I stood in front of the mirror. I just had a shower after my morning chores. I recalled that Alpha Don gave me a month to think about his proposal and give him an answer. Since he told me to think about it, I have rarely thought about it because of the series of dramatic events that have happened to me in the past couple of weeks. However, once in a while, I thought about it. When it was close to a month, I was very troubled and restless. Although I knew that I was going to reject the Alpha's proposal, I was worried about how he would react and thought of the best way to tell him that wouldn't get him upset. I must say that the Alpha has been somewhat nice to me compared to his family members who have made my life a living hell except for Henry who has been so caring and e
