View MoreDearest Readers, I apologize in advance for I would be indisposed and will be taking a break from now until the end of the month and will resume updates by June 1st due to health issues. You wouldn’t believe that despite being on a sick bed, I’m still plotting on a new book which I really think you’d all like🥹 Anyways, put me in your prayer and I promise to resume updates as soon as I get well. I love you all and really am thankful for your support all this while…Thank you once again and do have a pleasant day/evening (it’s evening here btw)
Ember's POVTwo thoughts ran through my mind. Firstly, I didn't know what animal had snuck into the safe tunnel. It was almost like being stuck between the devil and the deep blue sea. I needed to leave as soon as possible.The footsteps that were approaching stopped and I knew that they had also heard the warning that I did. I was probably trapped with an animal. The next thing I did was to bolt from that place. That was the only option, if not I was going to die. It let out a growl again before chasing after me.Now this was a mess because the mud had become sticky, the rogues that had come in after me had messed up the place. I was doing too many things at the same time. I was making sure that my legs were stepping on the right places so that I didn't get sucked up in the puddle that could make me slip and fall.Louder growls echoed from the tunnel as it ran towards me. Man, I was competing with a highly skilled animal.I jumped when I felt the ram of its horns at my butt. Shit!
Ember's povUpon my arrival downstairs, I met two guards who were also running into the compound, filled with worry and fear they began to pant. ", Luna, the pack is on fire." They delivered the message and I was angry."What do you mean by that?" I asked them and proceeded to run towards the site when someone dragged me back and I was confused as to why he was doing that. He raised his hands and stared at me. "I'm sorry but the alpha says that you shouldn't be here at this time. He specifically requested that you stay here so that we don't have any issues later, ma'am." He explained.I glared at him. The hell with him and his Alpha. What the hell was wrong with these people? "Get your hands off me right now before I do what I'd greatly regret." I warned him and he moved back quickly. I was pissed by the nonsense that he was trying to do. It wasn't going to work with me. I was going to make sure that they didn't do anything that'd deter me from seeing my kids. Was it that easy to gi
Ember's POVGetting out of that delicate situation proved to be a herculean task. All that I could think of was the fact that I probably had to start thinking of ways to leave.He was getting angry about the lack of physical intimacy which he deserved to be but I was also scared that one of these days he might just flip. We weren't on speaking terms for the most of the week and I avoided him to the best of my ability.Running my business religiously had to be the best thing that I had going for mebecause I needed something else that would make everything work out smoothly. My eyes were rotating at one point, and I felt like something was actually wrong with me. Sonia walked closer to me and tapped my arm drawing me out of my reverie. I was a bit tired about my predicament. Thinking at all times wasn't going to do good to my system. "Luna, a few Alphas would be coming soon. I hear that they're arriving in the evening. We need to prepare for their arrival."I nodded, pretending like
Ember's POV I went still at his words. Firstly, because it was a given. It was supposed to happen naturally between couples and I was making things difficult for him. "Oh,... That's sweet." I replied tactfully because I didn't want to say anything that'd make him know that my heart has left a long time ago He stared at me with a challenge in his eyes. "I don't know what is happening with you. You've been disturbed a long time. Is there anything that I can do for you?" Staring at the man who was showing me love like no other made my heart pull like strings. I would have had a reason to hate him but he was very good to me that all I felt was guilt. "I am good. I am just healing softly." My heart got twisted for a while when I saw his brows twist in concern. "I'm getting fed up with these excuses. I know that they are just means for you to avoid this issue and I truly didn't know why." He said and I felt bad. "Tell me what is wrong with you and I'll see what I can do. Is your b
Ember's POVI was lounging on the deck of the house, deciding to be all by myself after making sure that my kids were well fed and also due to the fact that I was experiencing withdrawal symptoms akin to addicts. Who would have thought that I'd be missing Xander so badly. Something had changed on the night of that Solstice and I wanted to get it back. My mind kept drifting to that man as much as I wanted to control it. My eyes laid on the scenery before me.A part of me wanted all of these to never have happened in the first place. It was all Trent's fault for inviting that unsuspecting criminal into our midst. He was a criminal because I knew that he was trying to steal my heart which was going to be impossible. Seeing that I was probably giving myself a big headache, I reached for my pencil and a paper and began to sketch designs on it. I didn't know when I had managed to finish sketching up to tej designs in a space of... I glanced at my watch, "Twenty minutes. That's fast."I gr
Xander's POVWhen it was time for us to leave in the morning, I was beginning to feel reticent. My heart was back with Ember but there was nothing that I could do only to get her to come back with me. At least I had to make sure that certain things were put in place before returning to fight for her.Unbeknownst to anyone, I had scouted the house to know the easiest places to penetrate. One of the greater mistakes that Trent made was allowing me into his house and that was one of the reasons that made me tarry."Your ex-wife has been staring at me like I had wronged her. I don't know what you see in her." Ellie whispered unto me, cutting me out of my thoughts. I was pissed by that untimely interruption. What nonsense was that? I didn't tell her that I needed anything from her. "Are you just going to ignore me?""What am I supposed to do? Beat her so that you know that I heard you." I barked at him. She was not happy with me and I didn't want to have anything to do with her now npt af
Ember's POVOh my goodness, what have I done to myself?' I soliloquized and I paced my room. How could I allow Xander to have sex with me again? I was a betrayer and my heart condemned me already.Meanwhile, my wolf was having the time of her life enjoying and making sure that she didn't change a thing. "Why are you fussing over nothing?" She replied and I stilled.If I could see her personally, I would have made sure that she received some slap from me. What the hell was she on about? I had cheated on my husband. It was still tolerable when I hadn't gone physical with Xander.I just imagined what would happen if Trent found out. If he was going to forgive me for paternity fraud before, with this, I was sure that I had been condemned to the deep abyss. I was so weak and tired and I was feeling like something had left my soul. I didn't even want to talk about the way I was feeling very attached to Xander.This was a curse and it's sad that I was chosen to bear it. If I could turn back
Ember's POV"What connection does light have with darkness?" I asked her. She folded her arms."I know what you're trying to do but I assure you that it won't work because it's impossible to take my husband away from me." She whispered and I sighed. Some people were just plain stupid and didn't like seeing things the way they were."Whatever rocks your boat, dear Luna. The worst thing one can ever do to themselves is self-deception." I retorted and she stilled. "You know that both of you are merely flatmates. I don't think he even sees you." I replied and she glared at me. Well, that was her business,I really didn't care about whatever she wanted to do."You will not come to my pack and attempt to dictate what I should and shouldn't do. You won't do that at all. That's the last thing that I would take from you, so take your bossiness elsewhere where it would be appreciated. "Is it that you're afraid of having me around or what?" She replied and she stared at me but I didn't say a wor
