Alpha Alfredo’s PovOpening my eyes, I squinted against the brightness of the light, trying to make sense of my surroundings. Panic surged through me as I realized I was tied to a chair, and all my attempts to set myself free didn't work."You're finally awake," I heard a familiar voice I hadn't heard in a long time, accompanied by eerie calmness. "Well, you didn't miss the fun part. We're just getting started.""Melissa?" I called out in surprise, looking in the direction the voice came from."Hey boo," she said, the eeriness in her voice sending a shiver down my spine."What's going on here?".....the stench of blood wafted into my nose, invading my senses, and I immediately knew something was terribly wrong. "Mel–" I stopped mid sentence as Melissa stepped out in the open. She was putting on a white gown which was now stained crimson with blood. On her right hand she held a knife which was dripping in blood, and what she held on her left hand made my blood run cold.The head of my m

Alpha Farrell’s Pov “Mom, Dad. I do not know if I’m about to make the worst mistake I could ever make,” I said as I stood next to their tombstone. My clothes dance in the wind. I closed my eyes to listen to the wind singing in my ears as it blew along.The voices of the boys giggling and playing in the garden could be heard from a distance. Claire and Aiden were with them, helping in any way they could, and also stopping them from doing anything that could cause damage.I opened my eyes to stare at the blue sky. Dotted with fluffy clouds that floated along the sky with the laziness of a slot.“Just give me a sign and I will stop this thing I’m doing immediately,” I prayed silently to the goddess, watching through the sky for the tiniest bit of clue.“We are done up here and will go have our breakfast," I turned to see Claire standing next to me. Lost in thought I hadn’t realized when she put her arms through mine until she spoke.“You guys should go on ahead. I still have some though

Alfredo’s Pov “Who is Melissa?” He asked me.“She is the one behind you. The one you are throwing away our alliance because you felt she doesn’t like it?” I asked as I pointed at Melissa, who they now refer to as Gabriella.“It doesn’t concern you who I base my decision on.” He said as he twirled the pen in his hand. It was obvious she had told him something as she came into the room. Either Lyra, her wolf had said something disgusting about me and his wolf had told him not to sign. There was no way that something had not happened for him not to agree.“She never told you about her past?” I asked as I stood.“Her past doesn’t matter any less than my pack matters to me. She is a member of my pack and anything I find offensive to her is offensive to the pack as a whole, and that includes your alliance,” he said as he dropped the pen, leaning on his hand.The sound of children running in the room sounds through the door.“No, not here,” Alpha Farrell said as he made to go to the door.

Gabriella POVEverything was over as soon as it began. The room was silent, but I could feel the eyes of Aiden and Kirk as they waited for some sort of explanation.How could I have not known? How did I not see this coming? I pondered on my stupidity. Alfredo saw me during the last meeting, and even though I denied being Melissa, he saw through my act. He knew me so damn well to know when I wasn't telling the truth. So, there was no way in hell he wouldn't come looking for me by any means necessary.“Mummy. Who was that man?” Daemon asked, staring at me with puppy eyes that would make you not want to deny him of anything he would ask.What do I tell him? Do I tell him that this man was not only his biological father but also, through his actions I almost lost my life?“It’s nothing for you to worry about baby,” I assured him with a smile as I squatted down, and ran my fingers through his hair, gently massaging his scalp. I pulled them both closer, wrapping my hands protectively out of

Alpha Alfredo’s Pov"Ahhhh!!!' I screamed in anger as I drove home, continuously hitting the steering wheel, and causing passersby to look at me like I was insane. I wasn't, but I was seething and brimming with so much anger that I didn't mind lashing out at the first person I came across.I was losing concentration as I drove, so I parked by the road. "This wasn't supposed to turn out this way," I growled as I stepped out of my car, and hit the tires continuously for about a minute.“Let’s get home and we can discuss our next course of action,” Dex said."Fuck!" I growled for the umpteenth time, ruffling my hair angrily as I got back into the car. "Whatever the next action turns out to be, it better get me, Melissa, and my boys!" I declared. "How dare Melissa make me look like a fool?! I'm going to make her pay, she and Alpha Farell!"The drive home was like a blur, even as I drove into my driveway.“You’re back,” Sarah said as she had seen me driving in, waiting for my car to reach
