Edens Pov.I sat in my office, turning my chair while twirling a pennin my hands. It was really stressful to be a prince and the next in command. In reality I never want to be an alpha, but this is my father's wish on his sickbed and I could only help bring that to pass.The door to my office opened and Delvin walked in, I immediately stood up to welcome him and to my surprise he was hospitable and accepted my welcome. When we both sat I asked the underlying question in my mind."And to what do I owe this special visit Delvin?" "Can't I have a little conversation with my little brother amd soon-to-be Alpha?" He said convincingly.A smile erupted on my lips, at least he wasn't angry anymore. "Oh oh, sorry for my rudeness just now." I said hastily. "What would you like to drink ?"Delvin waved me off. "Nothing, I just want to see how things are going with your preparation as the soon-to-be Alpha.""Really things aren't coming on well as I have expected it to but I am trying my best."
Helen’s pov Getting home, I reached my bag to the couch, and I swirled my hair in the air. “It was really a long day, honey.” A soft exhale escaped through my lips.“And also a memorable day of my life. It would be best if you didn't forget to add that to it,” Eden responded, his back getting lower, and his fingers landed on my feet.A feeling of relaxation and shyness washed over me as he helped with my buckle. “Thank you, babe.” I smiled at him before he moved to my rack.“How I wished Davin and I had been good brothers before now. Don't you think the bond would have been stronger?” He turned his face, and I noticed how cracked his heart had been.“It isn't late, okay? You aren't at fault, so you don't have to take the blame or guilt. Nevertheless, I’m glad you both are getting together now.” I patted his shoulder calmly, and I saw his burden lessened.We had a great night after having ourselves sleeping in each other’s arms.______The chirping sound of the bed alarmed me, and I
Eden’s pov An emergency call rang, and I darted to my father’s mansion. “You should have just gone home to rest, babe. So your eyes won’t get too heavy for our wedding shoot.” I flung my arm around Helen's waist as she looked so tired.“It’s your Dad, and he's also like a father to me. So why should I let you go through the burden alone.” She replied, and then immediately, a nurse walked up to us.“You can visit him now. We are done with his first medication, and don't hesitate to call out to us if anything happens.” The nurse said, pointing at his room.My heart ran some meters as I carefully opened the door to his ward. My heart sank, and for the very first time in my life, I was scared of losing someone so dear to me.“What have I done, moon goodness answer me?” My mother sobbed uncontrollably as she leaned on his bed.His eyes have gotten white, and he looks more thinner than before. “Mom, It would break us seeing you sobbing.” My woman wrapped my mother in a tight bug, and I cou
Eden’s pov After meeting with my neighbor, I resumed to my office. “Good morning, sir. We have a proposal from the neighboring pack.” My Beta came in shortly.He landed it on the table, and I stared at it briefly, “I will go through it later.” I said to him in a hoarse voice. My fingers ran through my hair as he stared at me in confusion, “I’m sorry to bother sir. Is anything the problem?” His gentle voice muttered carefully.I didn't want to open up or say something, but if I couldn’t confide in my Beta, who would I confide in?“You know of my Father’s health issues, do you?” I questioned, and he nodded in acknowledgment.“His condition baffles me, and it breaks me seeding him bedridden. Anytime it seems to get better, it worsens.” I narrated, a sigh heaving out of my lips.A problem shared is a problem solved, but my heart got heavier. “I’m sorry for Alpha Marlon’s condition, but what are the doctors saying? Does he need surgery? A fly out of the country for medication?” He asked
Helen’s pov I could feel the wetness of my fluid against my cheeks and the cracking of every bit of me.“Eden, I know nothing about this. I would never try to hurt Father. He did nothing wrong to me and always loves me like his daughter.” My voice went lower and lower, and I took a break to have my vocal cords intact.“I never said you did it. Never did I mention I didn't trust you. All I need is an answer to my troubled mind. How? Why? I can’t just think of it.”He ran his fingers repeatedly while I tried running through my clouded mind.“Could it be the perfume Mandy gifted me?” I asked him after a clear thought. “Since the test was done on my clothing material, it is just the perfume I used and have been using,” I added when he eyeballed me.“I knew it.” He jumped to his feet, grabbing his car key, “My mind has been there. Her sudden change and kindness? Every damn thing was worth suspecting. Let’s go, Helen!” He grabbed my wrist carefully but tightly.“Pick the perfume.” He order
Callox’s povThe tears of Edith were eventually found, and it was a mystery to come. Hailey was so smart in getting it.“Thank you, Morgan.” I expressed my sincere appreciation as I bowed gently.“You’re welcome, and you both can return to your family peacefully.” He hid us farewell, and we headed back to our pack.My pack, my home. After days of journey, we eventually arrived at the Osman pack. Scaling on the wheels of my wheelchair, the pack members approached me.“You’re welcome, Prince Callox.” They bowed in unison. Their voice brought hope and light to my heart.The memories of the hell I experienced in the avalanche were still embedded in my skull. How I nearly lost my woman.“It’s my pleasure to see you all again and my greatest joy to inform you that the love curse has been broken.” I broke the good news to them, and I saw genuine happiness spread across their face.“Oh! Bless the moon goddess.” An older woman said cheerfully.”You all will be served, and make sure you dine an
Dustin povI sipped the coffee that had been placed by Linda, Henry looked astonished but not disinterested, “What do you mean by gone”, “Well I need her six feet underneath the ground, is that enough explanation?”, “B-ut-but how would that help in getting the required position you need”, I smirked, this dude must be the father of the year of something, rather than being concerned for his about-to-be-dead daughter, he’s more concerned about how the plan would work, well good for me, I chose the right accomplice, “Well I planned to pin her death to the trust circle, and if Callox believes that, I think he would be on a murder rampage”, “And if he doesn’t?”, “Then I’ll kill the trust circle and pin it on him”, Henry grew silent for a while, “Why are you coming to me for this, what makes you so sure I’d be willing to do this, and what I gain by doing it?”, I smirked at him, “Well for one, I think you are in no good place with your daughter”, “So you hear
Callox POVI returned to my bedroom to find Rayell anxiously pacing around, I gave her a weak smile, feeling bad for all she had had to face, life was truly unfair, I wished I could just make it all go away, and give her the true happiness she deserves, “What is it Callox”, she asked I took her hands and ushered her to sit on our bed, “It’s just a little bump on the road to our happy ending”, “Well, it doesn’t look like it”, “Your father came”, I finally confessed, “My father? since when was he present at the trusted circle?”, “He- he made some complaints about our wedding-“, the look in her eyes made me stop, it was dreadful to see her eyes filled with sadness, “He tried to stop our wedding right?”, I heaved a sigh “Yes he did, although I think he had the help of my brother, but not to worry, he can’t do anything to stop us from being united, okay?”, I drew her in for a tight hug, She redrew it after a little while, “What complaints did
