*Astrid's POV*“Kai.” I called in tears“H...how could you do this to me?''Words couldn't describe the kind of pain I'm feeling presently, my whole world literally came crumbling before my very own eyes and I didn't have the courage to tell the good news to Kai. How could I? He betrayed me, he rejected me and all for what reason? Just because he believes me to be barren and unable to give him an heir.Kathryn got off the bed, then she came to wrap her hands around Kai's waist.That little act alone felt like I was being stabbed countless times in my heart.“You heard what he said Astrid, you're no longer the Luna of this pack, you shouldn't even be standing here right now, go find something to do, the same things' people like you do. Slaves!” She spat, a victorious smirk plastered on her lips.“Kathryn, I never imagined that you would do this to me, I never imagined that you would betray me like this, I took you as my sister!” “Don't try fooling us with your crocodile tears Astrid, i

7 YEARS LATER*Astrid's POV*It's been 7 years since Lucas took me under his wings and also the birth of my sons, Jayden, Kayden, and Braden and I must admit that my kids were the best thing that has ever happened to me, and I was so proud to be the mother of three lovely angels.After the triplets' birth, things took a huge turn for the better and thanks to Lucas, I was able to achieve so much in life and eventually became a successful businesswoman. My life couldn't be any better and I couldn't be more happy than I am.The kids were so fond of Lucas, and they all called him dad. At first, I had thought Lucas would have a problem with that, and I tried making them stop calling him dad, but when Lucas found out about it, he cautioned me and made me stop trying to make them stop calling him dad. Lucas insisted that he had no issue with that, and I eventually gave up on trying to stop them from doing that.Lucas has been a great father figure to my kids and for all he's done, I am deepl

*Kai's POV*Dan instantly gave me the magazine he was holding and what I saw made me stumble back in shock.Astrid's name was on the front page and it wasn't just that, she was among the top 10 successful business women and she was the first."I is this real?" I stuttered, still staring at the paper in utter disbelief and shock.It wasn't just about her being successful, it was about her being alive, a great feeling of relief coursed through me as I continued staring at her picture on the front page, she's changed so much that it was almost so hard to recognize her."She's alive Dan, she's alive!" I said with a bright smile on my face."Of course Alpha, I told you she's still alive, this is such a wonderful news for us.""Where is she? I need to meet her, can you track down her location?" I asked impatiently.The happiness on Dan's face instantly vanished and it made me wonder what went wrong."What's wrong? Why do you have that look on your face?" I asked and he sighed deeply."The t

*Astrid's POV*"What nonsense are you talking about! Astrid will never marry you." Kai seethed.Lucas scoffed. "Think again, after all you were the one who threw away a diamond while picking up stones, you have no say in this matter, you lost all rights to her the day you rejected her!" "So go back home to the woman you left her for, as you can see, my Astrid is doing well and she doesn't need a man like you in her life." Kai looked at me, he was literally pleading with me through his eyes, although I have no idea why Lucas will say a word like that, but to get Kai away, I was willing to play along."You don't know what kind of man he is Astrid, don't let him fool you, he's not a good person, please listen to me." He said."And you do?" I questioned sarcastically. "Don't make me raise my hand to you Kai because I won't hesitate to do that, I won't hear a single word against the man who saved my life when you threw me away, I am alive today because of Lucas, he made me what I am toda

It was late at night, Astrid already managed to put the kids to sleep, she was just leaving their room when she bumped into Crystal."Watch it!" Crystal spat.Knowing how much Crystal hates her, Astrid wasn't ready for her troubles."I'm sorry." She said, but before she could leave, Crystal said something that made her stop right in her track."I heard the father of your kids dropped by to see you and not just that, he also happens to be our rival, how ironic!" She chuckled. "You know you've over stayed your welcome here, since your ex mate wants you back, don't you think you should go because I think you should."Astrid heaved a deep breath as she tried calming her anger. "I don't have time for your nonsense Crystal, if you want a fight then look for it else where because I'm not interested in your rubbish." She made to leave, but Crystal stopped her with her words."The triplets." She said and she turned to face Astrid. "Does he know about them?" She smirked. "You know, as their fat
