LUTHER'S POV The time was a quarter after six in the evening. I was sitting on my bed in my room and packing the suitcase I want to use to travel to Nashville tomorrow. The things I was taking with me were in a pile on the bed. They include some casual clothes, two shoes, a shaving kit, toiletries, a wallet containing cash and my credit card, two fully loaded pistols, and five cartridges. It is now two weeks since my mother and sister came to my room to tell me about their silly dreams thinking it would scare me and make me change my mind about going to Nashville to take my son from Whitney. As I was folding my clothes and putting the items in the suitcase, I paused as my mind drifted to what happened in the past couple of weeks. I had planned to stay in a hotel when I get to Nashville but Rico cajoled me to stay in his place and not waste my money on a hotel. Another reason he gave was that I need to stay in his place because I may not be able to take my son by myself withou

WHITNEY'S POV Alpha Vicker gave me leave from work for two months the following week after the two of us planned what to do to protect our kids from Luther. It was the month of June and coincidentally, the kids who had just finished their exams were on a school break for ten weeks. I was happy cos now that the kids are at home and I'm on leave from work, I will be able to protect them better. The following morning after I started my leave, I was sleeping on the bed when Alpha Vicker woke me up and told me that he was going to the pack to have a meeting with his strongest warriors. He said he will select six among them that will come to the house to protect the kids. After kissing me lightly on the lips, he left the room. I felt so grateful to have him in my life. A smile spread across my face as I stared at the ceiling. I must say that many times when I'm alone, I sometimes imagine how my life would have been without him which always make me shudder in trepidation. It is

WHITNEY'S POVI felt cold water pour on my face and I regained consciousness. My head was aching badly as I opened my eyes and saw that I was lying on the ground. I looked around me and fear gripped my heart as I realized that I was in a dark alley. Where am I? What am I doing here? How did I get here? I was confused as I wondered.My heart was palpitating as I tried to remember what happened but everything was foggy. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath. Suddenly, the headache stopped and my head cleared. I remembered when I was at the automobile repair workshop. I recall when Alpha Vicker called me on the phone and when I paid the mechanic for his service. I recall when I wanted to enter my car and something hard hit me on the head and I fell to the ground. That was the last thing I remembered. I guess I lost consciousness. I concluded. So, how did I get here? Who brought me here? So many thoughts flo

WHITNEY'S POV "You stupid bitch! I never knew you were a witch! You are lucky that you used your evil power to freeze me like a statue if not I would have shot you and you would have been dead by now! You can go ahead to punish me but I swear with my life that I will get you again and when I do, I will not hesitate to kill you!" Sophia spat. I was silent for some seconds as I glared at her. "Sophia, I have always known you are a dumb blonde but I didn't know that you are so stupid. I just realized that you have no brains in your head and it's probably empty. I find it hard to believe that you are frozen and unable to do anything yet in your helpless condition, you have the nerve to insult and threaten me," I said in disbelief. "Why won't I insult you, huh? I thought you are just a bitch, I could never have imagined in a million years that you are also a blood-sucking witch! Whitney, the evil witch, unfreeze me now! I swear I will kill you as soon as you do!" she yelled. I was

WHITNEY'S POV. "Did Sophia tell you that only your blood could atone for what you did to her?" Alpha Vicker asked with an incredulous expression. "Yes, those were her exact words," I replied. He was silent for a moment as he stared at me in disbelief. "To be honest, I thought Sophia would have learned her lesson after her five years imprisonment and that she would turn over a new leaf but hearing that she kidnapped you again and wanted to kill you shows that evil is embedded in her soul," he said with anger. "You are right about that. Sophia is so evil," I said. "I must say I'm glad you came into my life when you did. Although, in the course of my relationship with Sophia, I realized she is a terrible lady, in a million years, I would never have known how evil she is. Perhaps, if you had not come into my life when you did, I might never have known the magnitude of evil she was capable of perpetrating and she might have harmed me in the long run. Breaking up wit
