ARABELLA’S POVI sat in my dimly lit living room. I stared into space, deep in thought. I can feel the burden of my worry weighing down on me like a heavy weight.This room that was once filled with laughter now felt too quiet. The silence is a reminder of the challenging times that I’m facing now.Delinda has been sick for a few weeks now. The worst part is that she’s not responding to treatment. I’ve given her all the drugs and herbs that I could think of. She’s so sick to the point that she’s unable to go to school. Her absence from school will no doubt affect her academic and social life. I know it might not matter much because she’s a kid but it hurts me because I know how much she loves going to school. Her being away from her friends will make things worse ad will make her feel lonelier. I worry about her health every day. I know what to do to make her feel better but I dot have the heart to do it. How do I go back to a pack where everyone there betrayed me? How can I face t

JACK’S POVI shook my legs, doing my best to keep myself calm. I bent my head down because I was trying to do my best to focus my aura on something else.If I look at someone in my angered state, my aura is enough to knock that person down even without me lifting a finger.I heard the manager come in. He asked what happened.“Why don’t you ask this bitch?” the girl said.This girl is lucky she’s a female. If she was a man like me, I wouldn’t think twice before knocking her out.How dare she talk to my Arabella that way?I hate the fact that Arabella acts so nice. If it was Jenny, she would have slapped the girl by now. Jenny doesn’t have the patience Arabella has.This girl has the nerve to insult Arabella. She also insulted me as an Alpha. Now, she’s calling Arabella a bitch? This girl has got another thing coming.I mind-linked Gray.“Yes Alpha?” he answered “Is there a problem?”“Come to the Blue Sea restaurant now.

Arabella povIt's been over a week since I made my decision and my moving out day is finally here. Jack and Jenny helped me bring out the boxes one by one then placed them in the trunk of my car. I don't have too many belongings so it didn't take too much time. I just packed clothes for my kids and for me too along with the essentials that they'll need. I stared at the living room, taking a deep breath as I looked around for what felt like the last time. I'm going to miss this house. This is one place that truly felt like home. It holds so many memories, mostly good ones. I can't wait to come back here. Jack came down the stairs, holding a box filled with my belongings. "Is that the last box?" I asked him. "Yes," he breathed heavily "What do you have in here anyway? Why is it so heavy?"I shrugged with a smile "A girl has her secrets"He rolled his eyes "Women"I chuckled.

Alpha Rhys' POVWho is that woman?I know it sounds like a rhetorical question given the fact that I know she's the guest doctor.Apart from that, who could she be?Why does she affect me in that manner?I had to excuse myself from the hall. I couldn't take it anymore.The dining hall was large but in that moment, I felt very suffocated. It felt as if the walls were closing in on me.I've never been so affected by a woman before.
