ALPHA KYLIAN'S POVI sighed loudly as I sank wearily into the armchair in my study. Today was hectic. I had endless meetings that I had to attend to. I needed to inform the council about my change of plans. I told them about Lorraine’s deceit, along with the lies that she tried to bewitch me. Molly's plan worked. I could tell the council didn't believe me. Even I knew the lies I told sounded a bit ridiculous. However, they couldn't say anything to dispute me and Molly's engagement because of her family's elite status. I went through series of other meetings with the wedding planner. Yaz was on my neck about Lorraine and Becca's punishment. Everything left me feeling drained, both physically and emotionally. I rubbed my temples, trying to ease the throbbing ache that pulsed behind my eyes.Different emotions swirled inside me. I couldn't explain them. At first, I was certain that I would punish Lorraine and Becca but then, I was blinded by my anger. I was hurt by the fact that Lorraine
LORRAINE'S POVI sat on the cold damp floor. My body was still heated up and I shivered violently. My condition was getting worse by the day. I felt weak to the point where I could barely move a muscle. I felt the walls closing in around me. The cell was dark. I hadn't seen the sunlight in what felt like forever. As a result, I didn't know how long I had been here - Days? Maybe a week had gone by. I wouldn't have known. My mind was filled with thoughts of Kylian. I struggled to contain the emotions I felt inside me. Tears filled my eyes every time I thought about him. I tried to console myself with the few good times we had. When I laid on the floor in the darkness, I imagined his comforting arms around me. I knew I should hate him. He locked me down here for a petty mistake. Still, I couldn't help my feelings for him. It was pathetic. The fact that I was pregnant scared me more than I cared to admit. I didn't know what to do. I didn't expect to be locked up in a dungeon and pregnan
LORRAINE'S POVI sat in the cold dark cell. I rubbed my belly as I stared into space, lost in my thoughts. I couldn't believe that there was a life growing inside me. I imagined having a family with Kylian. It would be the most beautiful thing. I had always dreamed of finding my mate and starting a family. I loved children. I'm sure Kylian would love his child too. For the first time ever since I landed in this cell, I felt a bit of... Hope. I trusted Molly. I knew she would deliver my message. I also had a feeling that Kylian would realize his mistakes as soon as he hears the news. He would instantly change his mind and come down here to get me. I would forgive him and we would move on like it never happened. He was just annoyed. That's the reason he threw us down here. Once everything is sorted out, all will be well again. From the way Kylian comforted me and made me feel safe, I had a feeling that he would make a good father. Every Alpha wants an heir. Apart from that, I knew tha
LORRAINE'S POVI stood there in silence, not caring if I lived or died. I could hear the growl of the beast but I couldn't care less. "Lorraine" Becca said "We need to do something" I stared into space in silence. I could feel the world spinning around me in a blur. I thought of everything that had happened. It brought tears to my eyes. Kylian had exiled me.... And our child. Not only did he not care for our baby, he sent me away. This same Kylian that made love to me passionately that night.... Was the same person who sent me away. How? How could someone be so cruel? Why did I fall for him so fast? "Lorraine!" Becca screamed "Let's do something". Becca's voice faded into the background. She tried to shake me from my trance but it didn't work. I was lost in my thoughts. Now, I felt like a shadow of myself. I just wanted it all to end. I wish I was dead. How could I be so foolish? The growl became louder. Suddenly, a large bear emerged from the trees. It growled loudly. Becca's han
ALPHA KYLIAN'S POVI sat at the head of the table in the board room The council members sat around me as they waited for me to address them. To other people, I looked normal but deep inside me, I had a lot of conflicting emotions. I couldn't eat. I couldn't sleep. Every time I closed my eyes, I saw Lorraine. I tried to get her out of my mind but it just wasn't working. The main door opened, revealing Molly. She was dressed in a white flowing long wedding dress designed with stones. She wore a veil on her head and had a bouquet in her hands. Mollu wanted a big ceremony but I decided against it. I decided to have a small private gathering in the board room. Lorraine wanted a huge ceremony. If I did that with Molly, it would be a betrayal to Lorraine. But why did I care? I didn't want a big ceremony anyway. It wasn't like I was getting married for love. It was just a contract agreement and should be treated as such. It didn't need any type of extravagance. Molly walked towards me slowl
ALPHA KYLIAN'S POVI sat in the palace bar alone, lost in my thoughts. I held a glass in my trembling hand. I had lost count of how many glasses I had taken. I just wanted to feel numb. The weight of my regret made it hard for me to breathe. I saw Lorraine everywhere I turned. "Your highness" I heard a familiar voice say. It was Oscar. He sat on the stool beside me. I could see the concern in his eyes. Ever since the wedding, Oscar had avoided me. We hadn't spoken since then. I had missed his company. "Whats wrong, son?" he asked me. .I turned to him, unable to hide my pain "I miss her, Oscar. I miss Lorraine so much it hurts."Oscar shook his head. He placed a comforting hand on my shoulder "Do you really?" I burped "Yes, I do" He took the glass from my hand and dropped it on the table. "That's enough, son" he said "Let's get you into bed" Oscar held my hand and led me out of the bar. I struggled while we walked down the corridor. My vision was blurry. I could barely see strai
LORRAINE'S POV(FOUR YEARS LATER)Four years has passed ever since the events that changed my life forever. Oscar led me to a peaceful village far away from our old pack. I hadn't heard from anyone in my pack for the last four years, not even Molly. There was no way for us to keep in contact so I didn't bother. I left the past behind and focused on my future. I had managed to form a life for myself here in this village.The place was calm and peaceful. Everyone here got along quite well. It was a small town so everyone knew everyone. I watched the lovely view from my cottage window. The gentle breeze blowed through the curtains. The streets were lined with colorful flowers, swaying in the gentle breeze. I watched as children played, running round the streets. Their laughter filled the air. The sunlight shone on everyone. Life was good. This place was home. I felt at peace here. "Mummy!" I heard a chorus of voices scream. My twin boys, Aiden and Alex ran to hug me. I laughed at the
KYLIAN'S POVI found myself in the silence of the day. I was in an empty park. The sky above was bright blue and birde chirped all around us. Lorraine sat beside me. She gazed at me with a smile that could light up the room. I looked at her intensely. I felt my heart swell with so much warmth and love for her. I was so happy that she was here. I was glad to be in her presence. I had missed her so much. "The sky is beautiful" she said, looking at the sky. I brought my hand to her chin, turning her face towards me. I loved staring into her lovely brown eyes. I could get lost in them forever. I wanted to. I loved staring at her. "Not as beautiful as you, my love" I whispered. My eyes darted to her luscious pink lips. I badly wanted to taste her. Her lips were the sweetest I had ever tasted. I could kiss her all day. "Do you mean that?" she asked me. Her brown eyes stared at me intensely. She looked at me like she could see deep into my soul. I loved being the focus of her attention
