. Mason's POVAm I confident that I will win? Yes.Am I confident that Jared is so easy to beat? No.I have fear in my heart but I can't let anyone, especially Alex, see it.I fear that Jared may have something up his sleeve.This is the first time someone had dared challenge an alpha for the seat.When dad suggested we go for the blood path, I was hesitant. But at the thought that if I don't then Jared will never stop, I had to do it.I am doing it for my mates. I want a happy family for us and this is the only way to make sure that the vamps don't bother us anymore.Alex is still hesitant and I had to make him promise me that whatever happens, he will let me handle Jared.Dad already sent the notice to Jared and he already replied."He can't wait to rip me apart, piece by piece."I know he's trying to intimidate me but I think it's working.Why did he kidnap Tessa and twice at that?Isn't it because he is sure that he can beat me?I am also sure that he knew I would go for the blood

43. Mason's POVI was angry.I felt adrenaline run through me and I wanted Jared dead.Seeing Tessa in such a weak state made me want to break him.I then looked at Alex and saw his worried countenance.Why would allow someone to hurt my family and then allow myself to die and leave him to make them suffer?Not today.I closed my eyes and by the time I was opening them, I was the alpha and no longer Mason.I was going to make this bastard pay."Prepare to die," he teased and I didn't pay any attention to him.Us vampires heal very fast.That means that if I want to kill him fast, you have to remember that we weren't allowed to use any weapons. It was our bare hands, I had to be fast.Make sure that a wound doesn't heal before I give him another one.I growled and my fangs came out and my long nails.Alex had helped me sharpen them for this occasion.I saw Jared panic but he reigned it in and if I wasn't looking at him with my alpha vision, I would have though that I was hallucinating.

45. Alex's POVWhen we got home, everyone was happy. Of course we were happy too.The happiest was me and it was like I was glued to Mason because I didn't want to leave his side.If you were me and you saw how much he had been beaten and was bleeding and all, you would do it too.For a moment there I thought that I would lose him.It was a miracle that my heart remained in my body.The first thing we did after making sure that Tessa was comfortable and that she had maids and warriors watching over her, we went to have a meeting with my dad.And yes, as usual, Tessa protested about having so many people follow her but we weren't having it.It was either that or we tie her in our room.We had also come with two of Mason's warriors to stay with her. These would help in sniffing out any vamp that wasn't satisfied with the outcome of the battle.Anyway, we met my dad and mom and some elders and we told them what Mason's family had decided and they agreed with it too."You are the alpha an

Tessa's POVI was pregnant.It still hadn't sunk well.I still couldn't believe it.I didn't even know how to react or behave or even what to say.I loved Alex and Mason. I did.A lot, in fact.But I think I never expected to get pregnant now.I don't know why I never thought it was a possibility since we mated for a whole weak when I was in that induced week and Alex knotted us and...Ha! All the same, it's here.Am I happy?Damn right I am.But, I am. Also afraid.I am afraid of what may happen to my, our child or children.Mason said he heard two heartbeats.Whatever I give birth to, I will protect them fiercely.I also know that my mates and my pack would protect me.And then we were called because Suzy, my sister in law, was giving birth.I didn't know what made me happier, that I was going to be an aunt or that I was going to be a mother myself.We hadn't even shared the news with anyone except my brother and I wasn't going to take the spotlight from Suzy.This was her moment.W

49. Alex's POVIt has been a month since we discovered that Tessa is pregnant.At first, Mason felt two heartbeats but when we went to the hospital, the ultrasound shown only one baby.But now, we are being told that Tessa has twins!How?What's happening?Okay, allow me to take you back in time to how it happened.Remember that night we had the party for Leo's baby? Yeah, that one.Tessa really indulged herself.She refused to stop drinking and eating everything that was on the table.But immediately after we got home, Tessa got sick.She started throwing up and experiencing a fever.It was weird because one, she's a silver wolf and she herself is supposed to be a healer.So, in our worry, we rushed her to the lack hospital.After we got there, she was given the first priority because I am the alpha of this pack and Mason was standing beside me looking as if he would kill anyone who didn't take care of Tessa.Tests were run and we were told that Tessa had food posioning and she was g
