Lillian's POV.As soon as the taxi dropped us at the hospital entrance, I raced into the hospital, leaving them no choice than to run after me.“Where is Megan?” I asked the nurse on the seat while trying to catch my breath.“She's with your dad.”I rushed to the ward and there he was – Jameson, who took me in and raised me as his own. He looked pale but forced a smile for me. As I stepped into the ward, a stench of IV mixed with air freshener welcomed me.Though he looks good in the hospital uniform, he looks better when he's dressed in his black suit and would come to where I was playing and place a soft kiss on my forehead.“Goodbye, cupcake.” He would say, while mom would remember him not to forget his office keys. “Darling, please keep in mind the keys to your office. It's on the hanger by the wall.” She would say from the kitchen where she's pac
Isabella's POVAfter we left the hospital, I headed to Alpha Sarah's house. It was almost dark and only the wind making rhythms with the dried rustling leaves could be heard as I sneaked closer to her house.“I should be able to mind link with her from here.”I connected to her mind link, “Alpha Sarah, I need your help.”Confused, she walked to the window and peeped, but she could only pick my scent and not see me.“Who's this? I've picked on this scent earlier today, I'm sure you're one of those that invaded my house today. What do you want from me?”“I need your help, and it's time-critical.”She scoffed and walked back to her bed, “Why do you think I would want to help you?”“Because that's who you are as besides, if you don't help me, I might lose someone dear to my heart in a few hours.” I uttered in a hushed tone, my thoughts w
Lillian's POV.I gasped in disbelief as I watched the door opened, and approached Alpha Sarah.“Thanks for your help, you might leave now.” I said with a bow.She scoffed softly.“What? You want me to leave after opening the palace for you? Do you use think I trust you? What if you have a secondary motive?”“Don't be mistaken, Alpha Sarah. I have no secondary motive, only a primary one, which is to save my dad before it's too late. So, I have no time for this chitchat. Please, take your leave.”“Who do you think you are to talk to me in such a manner? How dare you?” She raised her voice as she clenched her fist.I was tired of all her doubts. Marcus is the only that knows the way, and he needs to come with me, to help me find the cure. I was about to speak when I heard Marcus's voice through a mind link.“It's fine, Lilly. She isn't the type that would bulge.”“Fine? I need you in here, how is this fine?” I grunted with my brows pinched together.“We can talk like this. I can still le
Alpha Sarah's POV.Five days passed, and I'm yet to hear anything from the special that asked for my help. Alex and Mrs. Sophie had been complaining about me exhibiting strange behaviors for the past few days, but I ignored them.Here I am, in the middle of nowhere – where I thought I would find peace and live a simple life, but I ended up in the midst of people with tons of secrets who want me to rule over them and make all their wrongs right.“Hey, love.” Alex called out as he walked further into the room.I forced a smile as he placed a warm kiss on my cheek.“Is everything okay?” His brows raised as he sat down and noticed the worry boldly written on my face.“Sure,” I shrugged and smiled. “Everything is fine.”“I seriously doubt that, Sarah. This past few days, you've been acting strange, and I know something is bothering you right now. Why can't you tell me?”“You're right, Alex. But I'm being silent because you won't tell me the truth, you would probably find another lie to cov
Alex's POV.The next morning, I got up very early from bed. But the truth is I wasn't able to get enough sleep throughout the night, I couldn't stop thinking about Beth and the fact that I'm going to see her today made my heart face.“What if this turns out to be a joke, like the last time?” I thought as I pulled out a seat and sat in front of my table, which is close to the window.“It better not be, if not, today might be his last day on earth.”I sat up till the sun was high in the sky, reading a novel, but my mind was still clouded about Beth. I turned back, and my eyes fell on the clock: it was 7:55am.“He would call soon.”I got up, took my bath and got dressed in casual wears, there was no point in wearing a suit as this might be another prank of his. Seated in the living room, I checked my phone several for his call, but there was none.At 8am sharp, my phone rang, and I was more than glad that it was Sandro.“How is it going, buddy? I've been expecting your call.”“Chill, man
Lillian's POVAfter the portion was used on my dad, everything seemed like a miracle. It was as though he were never sick and now, he looks even stronger than before.We had gone home, and I walked down the stairs to the living room, where Isabella and Marcus were seated.“Hey, guys.” I smiled as I sat beside Isabella.“How is he doing?” Marcus asked.“Great......” I shook my head. “All thanks to you.”“It's nothing, Lilly. I'm glad we could help.” He held Isabella's hand and I nodded my head gently.“So what's the next line of action?”“We need to find Beth and get her before Alex does.”“I'm confused about something here.” Isabella started, her eyes laced with confused and distressed.“What's wrong?”“Why would Alex need Beth to become the Alpha? What exactly are we missing?” She whined, and I smiled, but they both glared softly at me.“I'm sorry about that,” I stopped smiling abruptly. “It may not be clear to you, but I think the reason and that's why I must destroy him.” I bore my
Alpha Sarah's POV.It's been two days since I stepped out of my room, I feel useless and hopeless that I couldn't help the Pack, neither can I get answers to my questions.A knock on the door interrupted my thoughts and my gaze shifted to the door. I walked to the door and opened it, it was Alex, and I let him in. “What are you doing here?” I asked as I sat on the bed. “What do you mean by that? Am I not supposed to me see my girlfriend?” He tried to kiss me, but I pushed him away. “Have you come to tell me more lies?”“How can you say that about me? I've never lied to you and I would never lie to you. Besides, I came here with good news.”“Wow! Good news from you? I bet it's going to be the last I hear.” I shrugged. “Go ahead, I'm all ears.”“No, babe. I can't say it to you now. You have to call the elder's meeting and afterward, call the Pack's meeting.”“All for what? Your good news? You can't be serious.” I scoffed and laid on the bed. “Of course, I'm serious, babe. Please, ju
Alpha Sarah's POV.A sigh of relief contoured with angry escaped my lips."Of course, you have to resign for going against my orders.""No." He shook his head and his face was filled with love and lust. "Not that, my love......"Instant murmurs filled the air but Miss. Eloise remained calm while a soft smile played on her lips."Are those two in love?""What a shameless Alpha she has been for sleeping with her Beta!""I can't even imagine calling her my Alpha again.""Enough!" I yelled and the room was in silent again. "Enough of all those murmurs in my meeting. Yes! What if we're in love? How is that an abomination? It's not like we're siblings." I snapped and my voice reverberated in the living room as I beat my feet on the floor. "We're sorry." They mumbled. I rolled my eyes in disgust and shifted my gaze to the person who created this mess - Alex. He winked at me and smiled which almost got me smiling but I had to control myself. "Do you have anything else to say to this meet
