ThingsNatasha’s POVI couldn't miss the look on Connor's face,he was hurt which I still couldn't understand why he felt that way. Vanessa was branded on her forehead as a traitor and banished because she poses evil Intentions. The only reason why I didn't ask for her head was because Xavier was still alive,no lives were lost. I didn't do it because of Connor's plea.The toast machine sounded pulling me away from my thoughts,I went ahead to serve the breakfast the guys would have been waiting for me.“We shouldn't make Luna do this.” Liam took the trays from me as I entered the dining room.“Oh please.” I rolled my eyes walking behind him.“Good morning Natasha!” Lisa greeted followed by the rest of the family.A smile appeared on my face as I watched them take the plates from the tray.I felt a tingling feeling of happiness and peace but it was for a while when I remembered my mom's words.If I fail then what would happen to them?Jayden's cry came harshly from the baby monitor and I
Punishing TraitorsRyan's POVI focused on hearing the rhythm of the heartbeat as the couples spoke to see if they were lying.Liam and Dante had done a thorough work. They were able to get the mole in the pack of those who hosted Gabriel and the amazing part was that their house was some miles close to the pack house gate.This must have given Gabriel the leverage he used against us.“My mate is right Alpha, we promise that we didn't do it to harm you or the pack member!” The woman, Selene fell to her knees.Her husband Gaius,fell to the ground and bowed his head to the floor.According to their statement the husband met Gabriel in a bar, took pity on him and took him to the house,he had no idea that Gabriel was wanted.“Ryan.” I lifted my head and saw Tasha,she bowed her head and walked to my side.She offered a smile which I returned,then she stood next to me and kept quiet.I knew why she was here even without her talking.“Please Alpha we were only trying to help the needy” He crie
Natasha's POV “I'm sorry, this happened to you?” I whispered to Xavier who was bedridden, Different pipes and wires were attached to his body. The only thing that I could hear was the beeping sound of the machine, and my own voice.“I hope you wake up soon, Jayden misses you, I miss you too.”“I heard people can hear when they are in a coma.” Connor walked in.“Hi.” I smiled before facing Xavier.“I'm sorry I wasn't there to protect you.” Connor said and I looked at him.He had the guilty expression, something was eating him up.“It's not your fault,if it's someone's fault then it's mine for not being able to stand up for myself.” That's why I was now determined to do whatever it takes to train hard,I wouldn't let the dark force have his way whoever he was.Gabriel alone turned her life this way.I needed to be prepared to defend my mate and my family.Connor sighed deeply and I glanced at him,he fiddled with his hands before staring at me.“Do you have something to say to me?” I
Natasha's POV“Hey! How are you feeling? Should I call Luke!” Ryan asked as he checked my body worriedly.“I…what happened?” I asked as he helped me rest my back on the bed.“Hey look at me.” He brought his face closer to my head.“Do you feel any pain at all,are you sure you are good…forget it I'm calling Luke!” He stood up and I held his arm.His eyes landed on my hand before looking at me,my throat burned when I tried to talk and I swallowed my saliva.“Don't leave.” I clung onto him.“I just want to call Luke, I'm not leaving.” He sat on the bed.I moved closer to him and wrapped my hands around his waist tightly,he stiffened for a while when he heard my son's he then pulled me closer.“I thought ….i…wouldn't be able to see you again Ryan.” I said amidst sobbing.“It felt.. like hell being separated from you…I .. tried escaping…but …I was weak..all this happened because I was weak!”“Hey!” He lifted my chin so I could look at him. “You aren't weak, you are the strongest woman I ha
Meeting Mother.Natasha's POVThe scenery that surrounded me was peaceful,my eyes roamed around the beautiful garden,the waterfall and the beautiful animal.I walked to the water body to check my reflection and I was surprised at what I saw. My skin was glowing and I was in a white flower dress. I heard footsteps and I turned around to see who was approaching.“Who are you?” It was a woman and I think we share a resemblance.She was also in a white flower dress but hers were longer than mine.Taking a deep closer at her she looked exactly like me. It was just that she was older and her hair was silver while mine was deep black.“Do you like what you see?” She ignored my question.My eyes followed her movement as she went to one of the trees,she stretched her hands and a fruit fell on her hands on its own.“Here.” She stretched her hand for me to take it from her.I eyed the fruit suspiciously contemplating if it was poisoned or not.“It's not poisoned.” She chuckled and I blinked.Did s
SubconsciousRyan's POVThe fury I was keeping in check to slay Gabriel dissolved when I saw Irene's clothes that was stained with blood. I couldn't blame her for killing him the way he treated her was to be blamed. I made sure Gabriel's head was separated from his body so there would be no chance of survival, although I didn't get the satisfaction of watching him suffer but the fact that he was no more and he posed no threat to my family anymore was enough assurance.“Where is she?” I asked Connor immediately when I got down from the car.“Luke is attending to her,she hasn't gained consciousness.” He answered and followed me from behind.“Take Irene to the pack hospital and let a psychiatrist attend to her.” I stopped walking and told him.“Okay.”“What about Elsa? Is she good?” I asked him before he turned around.I don't know if Elsa needed medical attention but it would be best if she gets a check up.“Elsa is good,she is with Lisa inside.” He answered.I left Connor to do his thi
