Beta Brent's POVI waited for a while. Olivia had not sent any message to me. It felt weird and at a point, I began to panic. I know how stupid my daughter can be. What if she went ahead and told Alpha Devon what she was asked to do? What if she failed and was caught?That wouldn't be my issue unless she went ahead to include me in the matter. If she dared to say I was the one who lured her into doing it then there would be a huge problem for me. Because even if Devon does not believe her, for the fact that he would want to war with me, he would use that as a reason.Alpha Rodrigo's gaze was focused on me. He was the reason I'm thinking this way now. He summoned me to ask me how well Olivia has done. I couldn't answer properly. Maybe I should just tell him the truth, what was the worst that could happen?"Alpha Rodrigo, she said she would call me back. She asked me not to come again so that I would not be spotted by anyone." I answered. It was the truth anyway.He didn't look too plea

Olivia's POVDevon summoned me to his chamber at night and I was wondering why he called me. I expected to see him after he had spoken to my father but he didn't come to me. I did not even know where he had gone. I was really tensed when I heard him send me inside. Of course I would obey, but it did not mean I wasn't concerned.When they finished speaking, I did not know too. I waited a while and then I did not hear anything so I walked out slowly to see if they were still there. I peeped and did not find them there. Not my father, not Devon.Sighing, I walked back inside. I hoped to not be seen by anyone since I was trying to avoid any issues. Once I got to my room, I paced around. I really couldn't rest. I was on edge. What if my father had somehow blabbed to Devon? What if he wanted to cause troubles for me? Why did I accept to do this too?While I was pacing in my room, I heard a soft knock on my door. I stopped to listen for a while just to be sure if I had really heard the knock

Candice's POVI don't know what it was that made me walk about the hospital's corridor that night, but when I saw him, I understood. My entire accumulated anger from the day turned into pure joy from seeing him walk out from a ward. What did he come for? Was he ill?"You." He called sharply. I quickly went over to meet him, bowing slightly."Where is Susan?" He asked. I could detect an urgency in his voice."She is uh... In the theatre." I answered."Get her now!" He ordered. Huh? Did he not hear me?.I just said she is in the theatre!"Alpha Devon, she-""Don't test my patience, little girl." From the way he yelled, my poor heart began to race and I almost cried. It was hurtful when a scary person yelled at you, especially when you were not wrong. But it was even more hurtful when the man you love yell at you.I hurried to the theater where Susan was. When she saw me, her eyes hardened. I don't know why she was still mad at me, it was a simply mistake which I made."What are you doing

Candice's POVI hated being sent away from the ward. I wanted to be there. I want to be there in every of their moment. I want to see everything they do when they are together. I cannot trust Susan to tell me. She does not support me vying for Devon to be mine and that tells a lot about her loyalty to me.I was enraged so I kept pacing the corridor. Hal had finished the surgery and came out with some other nurses, wheeling the patient to his ward. That was supposed to be me since I was on duty, but the fact that the man of my dreams was right in a separate ward with a mute fool who thinks she can steal him all because of some old wives' tale that she believes will work."Candice," Hal called. "I have searched everywhere for you, why didn't you show up since?"I glared at him. Why was he speaking so nicely to me? He was always so sarcastic when speaking to me, so why was he speaking so nicely now?"Cat got your tongue? Or are you the new mute in town?" He teased."Ah, shut up!" I snapp

Olivia's POVI knew it! I just knew it! Candice hates me so much, so why would she be the one to come to my rescue when I need help? Why?From the moment I put my legs in the shoes, I felt a strange feeling. I just did not want to complain so I would not delay Devon any further. We had gone a little distance and I felt the pinching pain in my legs.Devon was already getting a little angry that I was walking so slowly, yet I stopped walking. I just had to endure till we got home. When we did, I hurried to my room, ignoring all his calls of care and concern. I was somehow jealous that he had called that witch Candy. It felt as if he had intentionally done it. I freed my legs from the boots and I noticed how swollen they were."What the hell is that?!" Devon demanded. I jolted in fright. Why did he yell so much?My eyes watered already. It was hurting so much, I couldn't walk at all. I couldn't even move my legs. Devon stood, staring at my swollen feet. He could not do anything, he was
