Alpha Caden's POV:"Three days! It's been three fucking days and there's no sign of my mate! What do you think I am supposed to do, Mikasa? "Mikasa sighed when he saw how desperate I had become to see her glimpse. Every time I entered the chamber, her sweet memories would grip me like a last hope. She had become everything I had desired for in a mate. The pain of separation was killing me. It was unbearable. This time it was not someone else who had taken her away from me but she on her own had decided to part ways with me. "She is not in any of the packs. " Mikasa told me. I rubbed my forehead, trying to cool myself down to avoid an angry outburst. I had to work on my anger issues if I really wanted her back. She was mine. She wasn't going anywhere in my life. It was just gone for a short time to teach me a lesson. I would get her back. "What do the vampires want? They have been attacking the borders a lot these past few days. " I asked, sitting on the chair. Mikasa shook his

Isla's POV: 8 Months later- I dragged my feet to the door, feeling exhausted and defeated. Another day, another rejection. No one seemed to believe in my vision, my passion, my dream. I had poured my heart and soul into this business, but it was going nowhere. I was running out of time, money, and hope.Luna Eden had tried to help but I knew she couldn't do much because it would raise suspicion on her part. This small business had been registered in my name and I had been the sole owner for this. Any connection between us would lead my enemies directly to me so she had been very careful about my location of work. These eight months passed so quickly that I didn't even get the time to plan accordingly. I opened the door of the apartment and was greeted by the sight of my quadruplets, sleeping peacefully in their cribs. They were my only reason to keep going, to keep fighting, to keep living. I smiled softly and kissed their foreheads, feeling a surge of love and gratitude. They were

Isla's POV:My mind raced to all the possibilities on my way back home. I imagined my kids being snatched away from me and taken back to the pack where the witch would sacrifice them for whatever reason she needed. I ran out of the car and pressed the elevator's buttons but it was busy and I couldn't wait for it to descend. I went for the staircase and climbed them without thinking about the weird looks my guard was giving me. Those men had followed me home too but for some reason they didn't come inside. Instead, they just stood at the door and spoke to someone on their phone. I banged on the door and screamed for Lilly, the caretaker, to open the door. "Are you okay? " She asked, frowning. "Where are the kids? " I asked. "Sleeping." She answered without any clue in the world. I took a sigh of relief when I saw them sleeping peacefully in their cradles. I fell to my knees and touched them. It was already difficult for me to live a life when I was constantly looking behind my s

Isla's POV:"Let him go! " I immediately shouted when I saw Vlad hanging mid-air and Caden throwing punches after punches at him brutally. Mikasa stopped me from helping the helpless man out and all I could do was scream for help. Finally, when he was done with him, he threw Vlad against the wall. I saw him flinching with pain and he couldn't get up on his own. Caden had hit him with all his strength and for a human like him it was not so easy to bear that. "Why did you hit him? Are you crazy? Why do you always hurt people around me? " He didn't say anything for a minute and just gave a death stare to poor Vlad. And within a second he grabbed him by his collars again and made him stand before me. "Tell her. " Caden angrily shouted at Vlad. "What? " He asked, crying in pain. I was so confused and the anger was making me go blind because he was so dramatic about a man pink close to me that he couldn't bear it. Like always he was finding some excuses to make other men look bad in m

Chapter-80 : Bitter FacadeIsla's POV: Even when I was feeling so confident and excited to see the true face of Caden, something in me whispered to me about how angry he could get. 'That's what I want to see. His ugly side. 'I stepped out of the car and walked towards the grand Hotel. There were no other cars excluding around 10 of them in the parking lot. For a minute, I thought about the possibility of meeting just Caden in the hotel because he might have lied to me about everyone else. But I saw Luna Eden's car too and was sure that at least she had joined us today. The guards welcomed me in and music was blasting in the hall while a few girls danced. There were around 40 people and most of them had dominating scents which meant it was an Alpha reunion in the human world. They must have caught a whiff of my scent too because their eyes settled on me and scanned my physique like a prey. Well, heck smart ass. Luna Eden's brother, Alpha Nathaniel, went wild when he found me in
