Julianna's POV“So Koko came up with this idea?” I asked.“Yes, she did.” Chester replied.I was walking down the hall and Chester and some warriors were behind us, as we discussed the most important and crucial things concerning the case of Baby Liam's kidnap.It was now a couple of minutes before the judgment for Henry and Scarlett was supposed to be given.“What do you think about her plan?”He asked me and I combed my hair with my fingers.“Honestly, I think it's a little out of the box, but it could work. It's not like we have much choice anyways, the baby's mother must be so heartbroken and the father too.”“That's true.” Chester affirmed, as our walking step became faster, in order to increase our pace.I suddenly stopped and glanced at the warriors behind us. There was something that I wanted to discuss urgently with Chester and it was not something I could do with the warriors behind us.“Don't you think we will cover more ground if we split up from the rest of the gang?"I g
Koko's POV“I never knew that you were such a scary bitch, Scarlett, so you would go that far?" I said, looking irritated."Go to hell bitch." She spatThe judging council had been disbanded, so both Henry and Scarlett had been released from their cells and given good clothes and food. Also, a huge amount of money had been arranged for both of them.Of course, we had guards at their sides in case they tried anything else.We were in the throne room and Niyol had told his gamma to remain with his mate until they brought the baby back because he doubted that he would be able to resist the urge to break Scarlett and Henry like broomsticks. However Chester was here as well.I did not respond to Scarlett's provocations at me, she was nothing but a mad woman that was being held by her grave wickedness, lack of empathy and satisfaction.Henry was not talking at all. I couldn't believe that somewhere in the corner of my heart, I had considered letting them live, but then any consideration for
Niyol's POVAs I held the baby in my arms, it only took one look his eyes to know that he was my nephew, Liam.The poor thing seemed to recognise me, as he reached out with his little fingers, and I felt my blood boil so hot through my veins that these worthless rats had actually made my nephew go through so much.If it wasn't for my mate's voice that was in my head, constantly telling me to keep calm, so that the rest of the plan would flow smoothly, I would have bashed all their skulls in.“Well it was nice doing business with you.” the snake that called herself Scarlet said as she held Henry's hand and they rushed over to their accomplices that had been waiting for them with a car that I just noticed. And in a few moments the only thing that was left of them at the border was a puff of smoke that came from the engine of the car.“You should have allowed me kill them...”I said to my mate with a ragged breath and she nodded.“You are right, if I had just gone along with their execut
Julianna's POV“Do you feel like backing out?" I asked him, leaning back on a tree and looking into his eyes. He looked back into mine and shook his head."No, this is the closest that I'll get to redeeming myself. I'm not going to throw this opportunity away..."His fingers clenched into a trembling fist and I walked over to him placing my own fingers in his until both of them entangled."Whatever happens from here, just know that I'm on your side.. Chester..." He nodded."I know that I don't deserve you Julianna, but thank you, thank you for sticking by me, even though I've been an idiot lately."I smiled as the dim glow of the moonlight above our heads somehow made this moment a little bit deeper and then his hands came over to my waist and pulled me to himself. Just then, we heard the sound of a car engine and we both took heavy breaths."It's them..." I whispered into his ear and he nodded.Holding my hand, we ran into one of the bushes, as the car that was carrying both Henry an
Koko's POV"So were you able to talk to Chester?" I asked him when he walked into the room and he just sighed and rested on the couch as if the whole world was on his shoulders.I walked over to him, and immediately sat by his side wrapping my hands around his waist and resting my head on his shoulder, it was almost like an instinct, the way he immediately rested on my head."Do you think he ran away?"He asked me out of the blue, as he was rubbing my arm."Too many suspicious things were pointing at him and he just decided to flee. I'm sure that Julianna would have gone with him, because nobody has seen her all day and it's already night.""You don't know if he's guilty or not, allthese may be nothing more than a misunderstanding…" I told him, looking up into his eyes and then he looked down into the mine."What if it is not a misunderstanding?"I broke my embrace from him."You can't just believe everything that Scarlett says! Especially since she's nothing more than a manipulative
Koko's POV"What do you mean by I should sit this one out?"I asked my mate, placing my hands on my hips and looking straight at him, with a questioning expression on my face. He was also at the gate of the palace with warriors behind us and rushing.“Don't you believe in me at all?” I asked him, but he was not even looking at me and was headed straight like an arrow and finally I could not take it anymore. I grabbed him by his hand."Give me one good reason why I should sit this out? I just want to come along and see if there's anything I can do at all."Then suddenly he pulled me over to his chest. He did it gently and told the warriors to keep going ahead and that he will catch up with them soon.“Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that I'm underestimating you, but right now you are pregnant and it's not good for you to be stressed out like this, and that seems to be the only thing that's happening right now.So what you need to do is to go to sleep... Think about the baby and get
Alpha Niyol's POVThe light coming from the moon was rather dim this night, as we headed towards the bridge that Juliana had described.As I was driving there with my warriors, I wondered how exactly Chester had fallen into the river. The Chester I knew was not exactly the careless type that was unaware of his surroundings.Of course he would not be in the same place anymore. The current of the water would have taken him away to another direction and that was what we were planning to follow to find him, but the more we drove the more we found it harder to navigate the road.I was wondering how they had driven so far with their car. Was there another path to the bridge that I didn't know about?There probably was, because at a point, I realised that navigating through the bumpy road was even going to take us longer time than running.We parked, and came out of the car, immediately shifting into our wolf forms and howling at the moon, then bundled our clothes in our mouths.Of course, I
Koko's POVIt had already been 3 days since they started the search for Chester, but, there was still no trace of him. I spent those long three torturous days tossing, turning and pacing around the bed chamber.It felt so surreal, as if I was in a dream, a dream that I refused to wake up from and had melted into my reality.The Queen mother was there for me, as well as Laci, they tried to distract me with small talk and other things, but I was not really there with them, my mind was with my mate and so was my heart.Even though the time I spent with Chester was not that long, at least it wasn't long at all compared to how long my mate had spent with him, I could tell that he was a good man that meant a lot to my mate and losing him would be even more horrible and heart-wrenching than losing his right arm and the thought of that made sleep almost impossible for me.I was only able to blink my eyes a couple of times and before I knew it, it was already morning again, but somehow their s
