Alpha Gregory's POVIt first started as side talks but as time went on, it grew into rumors and soon almost everyone was talking about it. Stephanie's disappearance and sudden reappearance was a hot topic for the pack members to debate on. The main highlights of their discussion was her whereabouts when she disappeared. Some said she went into hiding due to shame but others highlighted she was in the arms of another man. Soon the topic that was meant for the pack members to discuss was brought into the council during one of our meetings. “You shouldn't try covering up for her, tell us her whereabouts before her return so that all the rumors would be clear." Elder Ralph said, eliciting a nod of support from his colleagues. “Why are you interested in her whereabouts?" I snapped at them, grabbing the arm of my chair in anger. As the rumor grew, the more angry I became but there was nothing I could do about it.

Stephanie's POVThe rumors were getting worse with each passing day. Alpha Gregory had done a good job trying to stop me from hearing the rumors but the volumes at which the pack members spoke were loud. Now I understand why I was getting those strange looks each time I stepped out of the chambers. To make the pack members believe I was loyal to them, I did all I could to make that happen and even got involved in their little talks but it didn't suffice. They were all still suspicious and whenever I joined them, it was either they changed the topic of their discussion or the gathering started thinning out until I was the only one left. Alpha Gregory was not left in all of this. I did whatever he asked of me and my head was always bent to the ground whenever he spoke to me. My aim was to let him know that it was just a rumor and I was loyal to him and the pack. Since the pack members won't believ

Ava’s POVTwirling my hair around my fingers, a scoff escaped from my lips. Till now, Alpha Gregory’s voice still echoed in my mind. The way he had whispered my name filled with passion and love. And then, the way he had uttered his final order.Alpha Gregory had been a pawn in my game for a long time but all of a sudden, things changed. He learnt of the truth and was determined to put an end to me.At first, I thought he was reacting because of the feeling of betrayal and with time it would wean off but I was mistaken. I tried all the tactics I could think of to soothe him before I resumed my manipulation but it was to no avail. It was unlike before when he could barely function properly without me by his side even to the extent that he rejected his pregnant mate just to be with me. Rolling my eyes to the back of my head, I sat on the couch, legs crossed and staring into space. “Gregory, you thin

Gregory’s POVI was shocked to see Ava at the borders instead of the rogues like I was informed. She didn't come for negotiations, she was here for revenge and to make that happen, she came with a sorcerer who cast spells on my armies before doing the same to me. Fighting against the sorcerer's magic was like I was fighting against a demon which was triple my size. His magic was like I was being whipped with fire that scotched my skin and left a burning sensation in my veins. The sorcerer continued tormenting me, giving me no time to breathe as the pain came hitting me in bolts. Gritting my teeth amidst the pain, I struggled to remain on my feet. My armies were frozen, I couldn't afford to fall when the whole life of my pack depended on me. And then, there was Stephanie and our child whom I had vowed to protect.With this in mind, I continued fighting against the magic but I was losing strength.

Stephanie's POV Standing behind the cot of my children, my heart fluttered as a permanent smile remained on my lips. They were so adorable and I wouldn't mind spending the whole day watching my little darlings I had vowed to nurture into great men. “My lady, it's time to have your bath so we can proceed for breakfast." Sarah spoke from the door. When I didn't give her a response, she closed the distance between us and with her hand resting tenderly on mine, she asked, “Are you skipping breakfast today?" Nodding at the twins, she added, “They are hard suckers, you need to eat a lot to withstand them." Swirling to face her, I mouthed, “Aren't they beautiful?" “Yes, they are. They are both adorable." “Who do you think will take after me?"She was about to answer when the door creaked open and Alpha Gregory walked in. “Excuse me." She took her leave, leaving me with Gregory who was already beside me and the kids.“I will look after them, go and have a bath." He tried to steer me
