Hours has gone by still no sign of my kids. I was sad, broken and going out of my mind. Lin and his men had return also without a trace of their way about. It was as though Emily and Ethan had disappeared into thin air.I sat by the cushion thinking about everything that had happened up until now. Zack's rejection. My kids getting kidnapped causing my expression to turned solemn as I recounted the mix-up at the hospital, where I had gone for artificial insemination with Zack's sperm."There was a mistake," I explained, my voice tinged with a sadness that I thought I was already over. Lin simply looked at me, his sadness evident as well but I needed to get things off my chest so I kept talking."They used someone else's sperm instead of Zack's. When he found out, he wanted me to terminate the pregnancy. But I couldn't do that. Those children were a part of me, not to mention that I do not really like the thought of abortion. My doctor then advised me to take an ultrasound scan and whe
As we made our way back home, the weight of the revelation lingered in my thoughts, but I was more worried about my children. Lin seem to be in deep thought too. The revelation that Emily and Ethan turned out to be his too had him shaken up pretty bad.I was somewhat relief that my kids now have a father even though Lin had already made himself one before realizing he actually was. But their disappearance was something anyone can explain.As soon as we got home. I made a decision to go ask my mother for help. I was capable of entering the dream fabric without totally going to sleep. That kind of made me a pseudo walker of sorts, since technically I was only daydreaming. It was hard to do so, but my anxiety could not allow me to put my head to my pillow and do things the easy way.I was lucid when I awoke in mother's 'lobby', thankfully. When I did, though, I remembered clearly the last time I was here. The monsters, the chase, the fact that I had been kicked out; everything.My anxiet
I had been kicked out of the mother's dream space again. Even so, I could not shake the feeling that something was very wrong somewhere. I tried entering once again, but I was in no mental state to do so, so I resorted to calling her through her cell phone.My hands trembled as I clutched my phone, desperately dialing my mother's number again and again. Each unanswered call heightened my worry for my children and my mother. The fear was consuming me, escalating with every passing moment.Rachel, approached me, concern etched on her face. She reached out, placing a comforting hand on my shoulder. "Meghan, I understand your fear, but we have to stay calm and think rationally. We'll find a way to resolve this together."I knew why she was here. With most of the pack out combing the area in search of Emily and her brother, the only reason she is here is in order to stop me from running out of the house to look for them myself.My voice quivered with a mix of fear and frustration as I spok
As I stood at the base of the grand staircase, my gaze locked with Jessica's icy stare. The air crackled with tension, and it was clear that we were about to engage in a battle of words.A smirk tugged at the corners of Jessica's lips as she looked down at me, her voice dripping with condescension."Well, well, if it isn't the pathetic ex-wife," Jessica sneered, her words laced with venom as she leaned upon the marble banister. "I must say, you've managed to make a real mess of things, haven't you?"My jaw clenched, my fists tightening at my sides. I refused to let Jessica's taunts weaken my resolve. For all her posturing, Jessica was rather weak willed and easily riled up. I would know - she was my best friend for years."At least I had the courage to walk away from a toxic relationship," I shot back, my voice infused with a quiet strength. "Unlike you, who willingly stepped into the role of Zack's rebound."Jessica's eyes narrowed, her expression growing even more malicious."Reboun
On my way back home, things were not looking too good.I gripped the steering wheel tightly as another wave of dizziness washed over me. The road ahead seemed to warp and distort, making it increasingly difficult to focus. I blinked rapidly, trying to clear my vision, but the dizziness persisted. The throbbing in my head intensified with each passing moment, sending sharp jolts of pain through my skull.I knew I shouldn't be driving in this state, but the urgency to get home overwhelmed me. The dizziness had been plaguing me for days, growing worse with each passing day. Fear and determination fueled my racing heart as I pressed on, desperate to reach the safety of my home.The surroundings became a blur, the lines on the road merging into a distorted haze. My hands trembled on the steering wheel as I fought to maintain control. I muttered words of encouragement to myself, my voice shaky but determined. "Just a little further... You can do this."As the dizziness intensified, my grip
I barged into the room where Meghan should be only to find it empty.The room was quiet, the silence almost suffocating, and Rachel, the one I had entrusted to look after Meghan, was fast asleep on the couch.Fury surged through my veins as I stormed towards Rachel, my voice filled with a mix of disappointment and rage. "Rachel!" I bellowed, my voice echoing through the empty halls. "How could you let this happen? I specifically asked you to watch over Meghan, to keep her safe!"Rachel stirred from her sleep, and her eyes went wide with surprise and guilt as she sat up, struggling to comprehend the urgency in my voice. The weight of my anger settled upon her as I continued, my voice laced with venomous words."I cannot believe your incompetence," I spat, my words cutting through the air. "You had one job, Rachel. One job! And you failed miserably. How could you be so careless? So fucking negligent?"Rachel shrank back, her expression filled with shame and remorse. "Alpha, I... I'm sor
Meghan POV.For some reason, I found myself fighting against the restraints that held me captive, my head throbbing with pain as the room spun around me. I could hear Zack's distorted voice, filled with madness and accusations, as he stood before me. But I refused to succumb to his twisted words."You blame me for things that are out of my control," I spat, my voice filled with anger and defiance. "You speak of darkness and madness, but it is your own delusions that consume you, Zack. You chose this path, not me."My vision blurred, the world a dizzying whirlwind of confusion. But I pushed through, my determination fueling my every word and action. I would not let Zack's twisted narrative manipulate me any longer.Wait... Any longer?"You speak of abandonment, of being left in darkness, but it was you who pushed me away," I continued, my voice strong despite the waves of dizziness that threatened to pull me under. "I tried to help you, Zack," wait a minute. I did?"I tried to be there
I fought against the restraints, my body straining with all its might. Through the haze of dizziness and fear, I managed to find a surge of adrenaline, fueling my determination to survive. The struggle between us intensified, our conflicting desires clashing in a battle of wills.But as Zack tightened his grip, something seemed to snap within him. His eyes widened in realization, a mix of horror and regret flooding his expression. He stepped back, his hands falling to his sides, his voice filled with remorse."What... what am I doing?" Zack muttered to himself, his voice a mere whisper. "This isn'r... Meghan, I'm... I'm so sorry."With those final words, Zack turned and left the room, his footsteps echoing through the silence. I was left alone, still bound and breathless, my heart racing with a mix of relief and trepidation. Whatever the hell had happened, I knew I was not out of hot water yet and needed to be gone before he returns................It was hours before any other thing
