Lance POV Wendy and the guards were thrown into the dungeon and a guard came to report back to me.“They had been thrown into the dungeon and they will be starved for three days.” He reported Did J order them to be starved?I ignored the thought and looked at the guard. “Good. You can take your leave.” I instructed him and he left immediatelyJust after a minute, one of the Becker hurried into the room“What about the meeting I asked you to set up with the elders?” I asked him“It’s done Aloha. They are all present in the throne room.” He reported“Good,” I mumbled and Anyone could see the satisfaction on my face I turned back at J who had slumped herself on the sofa cussing Wendy under her breath. I knew If I didn’t get in their fight at the right time she might have injured Wendy, Wendy is no match for her when it comes to energy, Wendy could only win her if she made use of her wolf. “You should get ready J, we are having a meeting with the elders,” I told herI knew it was no
Lance POV“She is pregnant?”“She is carrying his heir?” There were whispers in the throne hall.The whole throne room Was thrown into confusion. “What do you mean by that Alpha? You allowed a murderer’s child to carry your heir?” Elder Christopher flared up in anger. “The doctor confirmed that she is pregnant? Are you telling me to execute my heir along with her?” I yelled. There were more murmurs again.“There is no going back Alpha Lance, we can’t overlook the fact that she is still a child to the people who killed our Alpha and Luna, what if she is just like her parent and she ended up killing us all?” Elder Christopher yelled even more.“I think we have to overlook this Elder Christopher, she is carrying our Alpha’s heir, we can’t proceed with the judgment.” Elder John chirped in supporting me this time.However Hearing that, Elder Christopher's anger increased even more.“How can you say that? Who knows if she is only pretending, what is still is only trying to tie our Alpha
J’s POVGunshots and screams were heard all around and I instantly panicked at what was going on.My eyes widened in shock, my feet were suddenly numb and I couldn’t move an inch due to the loud firing followed by the screams of people being injured. “Get down right now, J!” Lance screamed and instantly shoved my head to the floor as a bullet hit one of the window glass in the throne roomI panicked even more at the danger right before us. I instantly crouched to the floor covering my ears with my bare hands in tears. Why was all that suddenly happening?I was only trying to clear my name, watching the old men spill out rubbish but I never expected something worse to happen. When the Becker had come in and Lance instructed me to leave, I had thought it was nothing serious, I thought Lance was only trying to get me out of the old man's sight but I never imagined that it could be anything serious and worseThe gunshot continued and the sound of the firing increased even more scaring
Lance’s POVI finally breathed a sigh of relief when the gunshots stopped. At least I was sure that J was safe, which was more important than anything. And now that the old men were gone, I could finally find out what the matter was.I got up from my position near the wall and calmly faced the backers. Three of them were standing directly in front of the door and the other two were looking outside the window. Because the gunshots had stopped, I could guess the reason. And that reason was confirmed when one of them, their leader, most likely turned his face away from the window and approached me, then bowed and said, “We apologize for causing such panic, Alpha. We needed to talk to you alone”.“What’s the problem that you had to interrupt my meeting in such a rude way, and almost endanger my clan with your shooting?” I wasn’t really annoyed, but I did not get to keep my position as Alpha by appearing weak. Their leader bowed again, and the other four men copied him. “Once again, we’r
Author's POV When Lance left the dungeon after asking his guards to deal with the bodies, he went to wash up. Thankfully, J was asleep so he dismissed the guards, entered the room and went straight to the bathroom. When he was done, and he had removed every trace of blood, he thanked Daphne and Anna and also dismissed them from the room.When he lay down next to J, she woke up and clung to him. He kissed her forehead and whispered, “Go back to sleep J”He felt her nod against him, and she coddled against him. He thought she had finally gone back to sleep again when she whispered, “What is it?”“It’s nothing”“We heard gunshots,” she said sleepily.“Hmm. Nothing serious”She finally sat up and stared at him. “You took your bath”He turned her face gently to his, “J?”“Do you trust me?” He asked. She was quiet for a while as she stared at his face. Then as if shyly, she murmured, “Yes, I do”He gently dragged her down until she was laying down with him before he responded, “Then trus
J's POVI heaved a sigh of relief the moment I realized the guards had backed out from following me everywhere I went. It was so tiring, having to see them follow me like a magnet connected to a metal. All I needed right now was a breathing space and I was clearly not going to get that with them tailing me."I need to get some fresh air." I muttered to myself and decided that it would be good to take a stroll around the pack, to just go somewhere else that's not within the four walls of the mansion to unwind. It wasn't too bad to want that, was it?While I was still thinking about my planned stroll, Tina walked towards me right on time. I found myself smiling brightly as she approached me because I've just found myself a partner."Hi!" I greeted enthusiastically and she responded with a hug and a bright smile."How are you feeling today J?" She asked staring at me."I've been feeling so cramped these past few days Tina. I literally need a breath of fresh air right now." I complained
Lance's POVI was seated behind my chair in the study room while busy with going through some documents right in front of me when I heard a fierce knock on the door.Looking up from the papers in front of me, I shifted my gaze to the door which opened instantly to reveal the presence of Justin. He walked into the study with two guards behind him."Well done Alpha" Justin greeted and the guards behind him did the same while bowing their heads"Is anything the matter?" I asked Justin because I noticed that he looked quite disturbed. It looked like he had a lot to tell me."I've just heard from one of these men who got the message that the pack's border has been broken into and some hunters are currently infiltrating the pack as we speak." Justin informed me to my greatest shock."What?!" I exclaimed with utter shock. This news was not good and not at this time. These intruders could pose great danger to the pack."Rumors even have it that some of them are roaming around the pack now and
Lance POVI didn't know how I ran, but I knew I ran. My legs ached as I searched everywhere for J with my eyes. I ran like a lion chasing its prey, except I wasn't chasing; I was searching, following her scent to somewhere. Although I ran like a bullet, I was following J's scent, which drew me nearer to wherever she was, though I had no idea. So I ran nonstop, with Justin and the other Beckers following behind me.I suddenly stopped, coming to a dead end. I sniffed in the air, but I couldn't smell her again. I rubbed my nose with a handkerchief, thinking it was a nose failure, and sniffed again, but I still couldn't perceive her scent. I took a measured step forward to the other side, thinking that if I couldn't smell her, she probably might have changed positions or made a turn. "Right?" I thought inwardly, and walked to the far end and sniffed, but I couldn't smell her."What's wrong? Can't you smell her again?" Justin asked, his face furrowed in a puzzle. He walked and stood bes
