LOGINNatalie's POV
As if drowning in water, I sucked in breaths as I forced my eyes to open. My breathing is heavy, my heartbeat, loud and fast. My eyes remained unfocused, the room I lay in made me wonder if I was with the moon goddess because everything in that room was white. Down to the bedsheet and the clothes that I am wearing. I looked down at myself and flashes of my last memory hit me hard. I closed my eyes, only to open them again with a snap. I remembered, I remembered what happened before I finally closed my eyes. I jumped up from the bed, shaking some things that were fixed on my hands. It hurt, but I didn't care as I looked at my hands and body if I was burnt. There was nothing, no burnt, no wounds, I was only pale. My hands quickly found their way to my flat tummy and the door immediately opened at the same minute. “You're awake” I heard the doctor who had just stepped him smile sweetly at me. I looked from him to myself, my hands, my legs, my body, was I saved? Who saved me? Did the Moon goddess give me a second chance? The doctor gave an instruction to one of the nurses beside him, but I didn't hear him. I was too enveloped by the wonder of how I had survived the fire. Even if the moon goddess had saved me, there was no way she must have done that without me getting wounded. The fire was so close, I could feel the burn on my skin. How then… “Can you hear me?” I blinked my eyes at the doctor only to nod. “Do you feel any pain?” And I shook my head. “No discomfort of any such? Headache?” Again, I shook my head. I don't feel any pain at all. In fact, I feel fine. “Can you speak?” He asked me and I nodded. My hands pressed on my stomach, I was about to ask him how my baby was doing when the door opened. A man walked in, long legs covered in black straight trousers, and a black suit with white inner. My eyes moved from his suit to his face. When my eyes finally met his, my breath hitched. “Doctor” he shook hands with the doctor who quickly received the handshake with a smile. “Mr Leo, your wife is awake” he grinned, and I blinked in confusion. The Mr. Leo turned to me and looked into my eyes, causing me to hold my breath. He didn't say a word to me, but instead turned to the doctor. They began to speak to each other. I couldn't hear a thing, and I wished I could hear what they were speaking about. “Who?” I asked, but so low that even I couldn't hear myself. “Thank you so much, doc” The man who was tagged as my husband finally spoke loudly before they both turned to me. “I had asked her if she felt any pain or discomfort, but she assured me that she was fine now?” The man turned to look at me before asking, “How are you doing, honey?” “Wh…at?” I choked on my saliva. Honey? Did Jasper change his face? Jasper can never be this good-looking or even calm. That beast can never be this man. What's his name again… “Leo?” “Hm?” He answered as he walked over to where I sat on the bed before he gave me a peck on the cheek, causing my heart to skip in my chest. I slowly turned my head to meet his eyes and I swear, I almost passed out from how I held my breath. He was more handsome as he was so close by. My eyes scanned his handsome face, and I just couldn't tear my eyes away from his face. Suddenly, that delicious smell, that smell that caused my heart to begin to pound in my chest in anticipation, came rushing in. This feeling, I had only experienced once, when my wolf happily informed me that Jasper was my mate. That day, my joy knows no bounds. My grin was as shiny as the sun. I was so sure of that feeling, so what's going on now? Why was my wolf leaping so much for joy, just like the last time? The smell of him was ten times sweeter, and more delicious than Jasper's, why? I was about to reach him after a while of staring at him in a daze, but he had already pushed himself away from the bed where he placed his hands before. “Let's go home, babe” he smiled before walking to the doctor, “Let's settle the bills,” he said to the doctor and they both began walking outside the hospital room What's going on? I cannot help but ask myself as I stare in a daze. My wolf suddenly leaped inside me the moment the door closed, “Mate!” What the fuck! Her joy was causing me to feel so good and so much joy as well, but I was as confused as fuck because what was going on? Jasper is my mate, right? Did the moon goddess give me another chance, as she gave me another chance and saved me? I looked down at my skin again as I wondered how I didn't get burnt. How did the moon goddess do it? How did I get a new mate? My skin looked pale, but aside from that, I looked extremely slim. I wondered how long I'd been in the hospital. I should ask the doctor or any nurse. Just then, the door pushed open. “Mrs. Leo, your husband has paid the hospital bill, you can now finally leave the hospital. According to the doctor, we'll come to check up on you from time to time at home, okay?” The nurse said to me as she helped me off the bed. I dare not nod, I sat there in a daze, Mrs. Leo? My husband? What the fuck is going on?!?Leo's lips twitched when he saw what his son had just done. He looked from Will to me as he said,“So this is what you want to do? Turn my own son against me?” He asked and I gulped. Actually, that wasn't my plan but seeing that Will was standing up for me made me so emotional. I didn't mind Leo, my gaze was on Will whose small hands were spread wide, protecting me. “Leo, let the boy's mother be,” Grandfather said and Leo scoffed, “She hugs you and you think she is nice to you now. Have you forgotten what she has done to you?” Leo asked Will and Will shook his head“Mommy is a good person. Don't send her out,” Will said to me and I bit my lower lip.Leo turned around and walked upstairs. Will turned to me to ask, “Are you okay, mommy?” I smiled and picked him up in my arms, “I think I'll always be whenever you're with me,” Will nodded with a smile, as he said, “Yes Mommy, I'll protect you.” We continued to have our food before Grandfather and Will went out to play. As for me,
Will and I left the room, heading to the dining, where we met Grandfather with a grumpy face. He looked towards us when he heard our footsteps. “You're awake” he stood up firmly, “How are you feeling?” “I'm okay, thank you very much,” I replied with a small smile. My eyes moved from him to the kitchen,“Ava!” I called and she came to me, “Is there food? Will and I need something to eat,” “I'll go get something,” Ava replied before leaving the living room. “Where Mia?” I asked when I noticed that I hadn't seen her all day. Will's face turned sour as he looked at his great-grandfather. I moved my gaze to look at grandfather, “Mia has left,” he dropped the news, causing me to squint my eyes at him. “What? I don't understand,”“Daddy sent her out last night,” Will said to me, his hold on my hand tightened, “Are you serious?” I asked and he nodded with his head down. Why would Leo do that? He knows how Will has come to love this woman and he sent her out? “Grandfather, is this tru
Natalie's POVMy eyes slowly opened, and I was on the bed, lying there. I looked around to find myself in my room. I wasn't dead! I had seen my life flash through my eyes.Leo was hell-bent on killing me if someone had not distracted him. He really hated me that much. He didn't mind that his son was hearing us or that I was his legally married wife.My throat was sour, I could hardly swallow. I knew it was because of his tight grip on my neck. I'll be fine soon but whether I would be fine or not, Leo would do it again if he sees me.My mind went wide thinking if I should release Angel or not. I don't want them to know that werewolves exist but I also do not want to die.Leo is my mate, I don't even think Angel would have the heart to kill him. We have come to love the man and are attracted to him. Still, I do not want to die.As my eyes searched the room, I caught sight of a small bundle of joy standing by the window looking out of the window.“Will?” I called with my hoarse voice and
Leo's POVI turned in anger to see Miles standing behind me. He was the one who had pulled me away. I wanted to question him and ask what he was doing when he yelled, “What the fuck, man! Do you want to kill her?” “Does she deserve—”“Will's at the door” Grandfather called our attention and I paused. My eyes looked at the door that was closed. My eyes were red, and my fangs had come out, along with my claws. I shut my eyes as I didn't want Will to see me that way, the next moment I opened my eyes again, it was back to normal. I sighed before making my way to the door. As I was going, I said to Miles, “Get her from the ground and make her lay on the bed,” I walked out of the room. We weren't finished, I was not done with her. When I am, she won't be breathing anymore.When I got out, I saw Will sitting on the ground. He wasn't crying but I knew the emotions he was releasing. I gulped. “Will” I called and he turned to me, he was so lost that he didn't know I was standing close to
Natalie's POV“Clara!” He kept yelling and even though I had locked myself inside the bathroom, I could imagine his angry face. I'm dead. Leo is going to rip me apart, I don't know what to do but one thing is sure, I won't leave this bathroom even if it means staying here all day. “What's going on?” I heard Grandfather's voice. My troubled heart calmed down a bit when I heard Grandfather’s voice. At least, I know I wouldn't die if Grandfather was here. “Tell your granddaughter-in-law to come out,” Leo said and I gulped. Never! I will not step out of here “Leo, can you calm down and not act this way?” “I'm calm, tell her to come out now!” Leo yelled again and Grandfather said, “You're not calm. If you are, I would know. In fact, you're so angry that you're screaming. Everyone's hearing your voice including your son. You're scaring him,” When I heard what Grandfather said, my eyes widened, “Will?” I quickly opened the door, ignoring Leo. I stepped out of the bathroom and was ab
Natalie's POVMorning came so fast, I had slept while caressing Will to sleep, and he was still sleeping when I woke up. Thank God it's Sunday, I don't think I have the heart to wake up the beautiful soul. He wrapped himself around me, his tiny hands around my waist as well as his legs. He is just a cute little thing. I didn't need the sun to brighten up my day, not when I got Will. I took my phone from the stool beside the bed and took a few shots of him. I've been doing that frequently lately, and I have a strong feeling we would need it later to tell stories. The house was unusually quiet and Mia hadn't come yet to see how we were doing. Does she trust me that much with Will now that she doesn't bother to come check up on us? Really, I liked it. Grandfather had not stopped smiling since I and Will became friends, he would always be with us and happily tell us stories when we needed them. I looked at the boy and moved closer to kiss his forehead, “Hmmm,”“Oh oh,” I pressed my
