Amelia watched all that was happening with an open mouth. All her sadness had seeped out of her as she was now surprised."We are giving you one last chance, Sandra. You better confess".Sandra hissed many times as she felt a sting in her side. It was getting worse. Her flesh was now half gone. "Give me a shot. I'm in pain!".A nurse moved to her. She wanted to administer something but the alpha stopped her. He looked into Sandra's eyes, "Confess or you will die alone and before all of us".Tears rolled down Sandra's eyes. She looked over at Amelia, "This is all because of you"."You wouldn't let me have the man of my dreams".Alex blocked off her view. "You make it seem like she had been the one who forced you to have the kind of life you wanted. Do you not know I have been watching you?".He snapped his finger and the guard she had been with approached them."Say hello to Cornell. He is my cousin but I made sure you didn't know about him. You and Cornell made love last night. Didn
Amelia was led only to Alpha Alex's chambers. He had her wear a blindfold and carefully guided her steps to the bed."Sit".Gently, she sat on the edge of the bed, waiting for what would happen next. Her heart was beating profusely while she swiped her tongue on her lips to wet them."How did you know about all of this?" Amelia tried to start a conversation. "I never left you. I had you in my mind the whole time and I am never going to leave". He bent a knee and dipped his hand into his pocket."Open your eyes, Amelia", he said to her while he positioned well. "I want you to be my wife again. My love for you has never left. Let us renew our vows".Amelia took off her blindfold to find the love of her life kneeling before her. Those eyes were sincere and kind. She held her breath and covered her mouth. "What are you doing?""I'm asking you to be my mate again. Love me like I was dying. Please, marry me".Amelia swallowed down. Her cheeks turned red. "You're making me smile"."Yes, a
Amelia's belly has grown twice in size since the last time she had seen the doctor. She was almost due and had to call him in for a checkup again. "You'll be having a girl this time", the doctor touched on her stomach. He felt a kick and raised his head to smile at her, "Your baby is doing great too".Alex, who stood by her with her hands interlock in his, stepped forward. "Is there anything we need to do to prepare for the coming of the baby?".The doctor shook his head. Alex was not satisfied. "Any scan? Any treatment? Any test for her at all?".The doctor still shook his head, "Your baby is fine and she will be fine too" he pointed to Amelia.Amelia saw the nervousness in his eyes. She held his hand tightly and reassured him again, "Trust me. I'll be fine. This isn't my first rodeo you know". She flashed him her white teeth.That calmed Alex. He leaned in for a kiss and went back to standing by her side.The check up was over and they both got ready to leave. Alex sat in front wi
THUD!Amelia heard the sound of the doors meeting the walls. Everyone in the restaurant was curious about who had just made such a noisy entrance. As one of the waitresses, she stood at the counter, her curiosity piqued.As she turned to see, her eyes met with Maxwell Hills'. It was him and his group of girls, making their usual dramatic entrance. They were undoubtedly the most annoying people in the entire pack.Maxwell Hills was known for being obnoxious and egoistic, particularly when it came to Amelia. He seemed to take pleasure in belittling her and making her feel small, especially in the place she worked.Seeing him come in, Amelia dreaded the nasty things he might do this time. She even considered closing her shift early and having someone else fill in for her while he was around. However, that didn't seem possible since there was no one willing to help her that way. Ever since she turned eighteen and hadn't wolfed out like the others, people began looking down on her. They av
"Mom! Dad!... No no no. This can’t be happening to me. This can’t be happening to me!” Amelia cried out. “What happened?”No one answered her. They only stared at her. She had no choice but to follow them onto the bus and ask the nurses there.“What happened to them?” Amelia asked them desperately, seeking an answer.“We received a report that a group of rogues came by and attacked them. There are no signs of transformation. That only means they didn’t get the chance to transform. The story is still unclear. So, I’ll advise you to listen only to what the investigator says. Theirs will be more accurate.” One of the nurses told her.While they were in the bus, Amelia watched her parents struggle to breathe properly. Though the nurses tried to help out, none of what they did helped. Instead, her parents slowly died before her eyes.She watched their lives slowly slip away from them. Speechless and frozen at the spot, her thoughts were blank, and she felt strangely numb. The feeling of gr
Their alpha was a caring one. He had stopped the rate of bullying in the pack. But, since it was in the werewolves’ nature to bully the weak and respect the strong, he couldn’t eradicate bullying entirely. Regardless of the alpha's concern, Amelia was scared of ratting out on Maxwell Hills. Who knows the things he would do to her next if she reported him? He might even have her killed and thrown into a deep river. People might not even notice since her parents, the only people that cared about her, were dead.“Tell me, little girl. I’ll make sure you’re protected. I just need to make an example of what I’ll do to those who defy me!” He yelled his last sentence at those werewolves in the courtroom.This sparked murmuring words in the huge room. Amelia was also as shocked as everyone else. She knew the alpha was kind. But, she thought he would follow the ancient tradition and make her a slave.That was the usual punishment for attempted suicide. The logic behind it all was that if th
Alex, the Lycan king, sat on his throne, looking at the scrying orb. He needed to find out the whereabouts of a certain man he had been chasing for years. This man had somehow harvested the power to control mindless rogues.This was an urgent issue he needed to resolve as soon as possible. If this man was given the slightest opportunity, he might destroy the peace Alex had worked hard for. He was a very thorough king. If he wanted something gone, he dealt with it from the source. This time, the cause of the trouble was a man hiding somewhere from him, plotting his next attack.He did not have much information on him, so it frustrated him to no end. He was busy trying to track him down when his trusted advisor, Parton, came into the throne room to inform him about something very important.“You didn’t knock, Parton,” Alex remarked, filled with anger. He stood in his full height and faced his advisor. "Now, give me a reason why I shouldn’t send you to the moon goddess right now." He w
A bang on the door made Amelia jitter. She was deep in thought of how her life was going to be from them on. She had found her mate for goodness sake. She deserved to be happy."Amelia" whoever it was banged the door again, "Open this door, I need to see you"Amelia shook her head. Was it wise to oep the door to her room at such a late hour. Who was it anyway?Amelia stood up to check. She walked to the door and then closed one eye to peer though the doorhole through the other. "Maxwell" she sighed. She pressed on the door knobe and opened the door immediately. Her mate was here."Amelia. How are you doing?" He slurred his words. He looked half awake and yet deeply asleep. Was he drunk?"Amelia, I've missed you so much""I've missed you too" she smiled. It was surprising to see how fast Maxwell had changed ever since the judgment from the alpha. He was acting like a different man––– a different werewolf actually."Come sit" she dragged him gently toward the bed. Amelia had made su
