Kayden's POVHe threw me a serious look, probably angry that I'd suddenly dragged him all the way out here but I ignored it, completely unperturbed. "I finally know who's responsible for poisoning your drink." I revealed and his eyes instantly went wide with shock."Really? Who? How?" He questioned, the confusion clear on his face."Yes, it was none other than my "dar…..ling" mate, Margallo. The witch you've forbidden me from rejecting." I said, putting a lot of stress on the word, darling."But how? How is that even possible? Why would Margallo want to poison me? Who told you this?" He questioned and I nearly glared at him."Why are you speaking as if you're above being harmed? I guess she might actually have a problem with you despite how much you've been going against your own brother and supporting her. The fact is that she tried to kill you and you're lucky Evelyn was brave enough to risk her life and save you or you'd be dead by now. And do you really want to know who told me th
Special Chapter: Margallo's POV"You all think I'm the guilty one and he's innocent right? He's not as perfect as you all think he is, he's been hiding the truth from everyone. You all really want to know what he did to me? You all want to know why I tried to kill him? Well then, I'll tell you. He hurt me very deeply. He broke my heart and stole everything away from me and then he left me……………." I screamed, my words leaving probably everyone else except Richard in absolute shock and confusion.Kayden wasted no time in attacking me with words. "What are you talking about? Are you drunk or something? Or have you gone mad? How dare you accuse my brother of such nonsense?" Kayden questioned, not even trying to hide his anger. Well, I don't care. I won't keep quiet today, everyone has to find out the great injustice that has been done to me by Richard. Everyone has to find out how terrible he is and they should also find out why I have every right to kill him."It hurts doesn't it?" I aske
Margallo's POV"Yes, it's the truth. I was pregnant at the time and the reason I was so eager to meet Richard then was because I wanted to tell him so he would approach my father and let him know about our relationship and about his decision to take me as his mate when I turned 18 but I got the biggest disappointment that day.The thought of my child was the only thing that saved me from commiting suicide.I was miserable and depressed for two weeks, deciding that I didn't want to see anyone or eat anything. My father was so worried and tried to find out what was wrong but I couldn't even bring myself to tell him, I felt so ashamed.I kept on being miserable and feeling sorry for myself until the day that I finally decided that I was tired of sulking and slowly dying inside.I decided I had to confront Richard and find out why he had chosen to betray me so badly. I tried to assure myself that he would apologize to me, take me in his arms and promise me that he would reject Elsie. I th
Special Chapter: Kayden's POVThe more I listened to her speak, the more confused and angry I got. How could all of this have happened without my knowledge?"You bastard, I blindly trusted you and did everything I could to maintain the friendship between our packs so how could you have done such a terrible thing to my daughter behind my back? I promise, you'll pay for this." Alpha Turner raged but we all ignored him. I couldn't bring myself to believe a single word Margallo had said. She has to be lying, she definitely has to, Richard would never do something like that. I trust him completely.I waited patiently for her to finish what she was saying so I could contradict her and tell her to her face that she was lying but Elsie beat me to it."Richard, is all of what she has just said true?" Elsie questioned, her voice full of hurt. The lone tear that fell down her cheek was unmistakable.Richard desisted from saying anything which made me so angry and upset. He knows that we would al
Special Chapter: Kayden's POV"If I'd known, I would have pleaded with you to reject me because if you did, we wouldn't be in this situation today. At least she wouldn't have tried to kill you and Evelyn wouldn't have risked her life. What if Evelyn had been unable to stop you from consuming the poison? Or what if Evelyn hadn't found out Margallo's plan and tried to stop her, then what? I would have probably lost you and I would have become a widow. What would have happened to our child? Margallo in her pursuit of revenge wouldn't have stopped until she ruined our pack and it would have been all your fault. She isn't to blame, you are. And to think we're supposed to be mates, Richard, doesn't our bond mean anything to you? You know everything about me, from my bra size to the size of shoes that I wear so how could you have kept such a huge secret from me? How long did you plan on hiding it from me? I feel like I don't even know you anymore. Only Selene knows how many more things you
Special Chapter: Kayden's POV"What?!" We all chorused in shock."Yes, the child you're carrying is the product of the love that you and Richard share so I want it." Margallo simply said."You must be out of your mind if you think that I'll ever give my child to you." Richard replied."Am I? It's really a fair bargain if you ask me. You seem to have forgotten that you stole that opportunity away from me. I was pregnant with your child and what did you do? You caused me to suffer a miscarriage, I lost my child because of you and I can never forgive you for that. If you really want me to leave you all in peace, I simply ask that you give my child back to me. You can't do that right? So you should pay for making me lose my baby by giving me yours. Only then will you realize the pain I've had to endure for so long. You'll finally understand what it means to lose a child after anticipating it for so long. I want your child and that's it, so do you accept my condition?" Margallo questioned.
Special Chapter: Kayden's POVI headed towards the room where she'd given birth but a maid told me that she'd been moved to her room so I headed to her room instead.I saw that she'd woken up and it brought a smile to my face. A big wave of relief washed over me.I walked into the room casually and drew up a chair to sit beside her bed."So how do you feel now?" I questioned and she nodded with a smile. "It's honestly great and such a big relief to see that you're fine. I was so scared, I was so worried about you." I said and my eyes widened when she grabbed me in a hug which I reciprocated instantly, melting into her warm embrace.She broke the hug and blushed slightly when we heard someone clear their throat."You guys realize that I'm still here right?" Elsie asked jocularly, wanting to lighten the mood but I know how worried she must be right now.I guess she doesn't want Evelyn to find out about Margallo's request. Evelyn has already been through so much and finding out would ca
My daughter, Nevaeh, had woken me up with her tiny little cries a few hours later. I finally got to see her properly and I noticed some things about her features.Though her facial features, precisely her nose and mouth resemble mine, she has her father's green eyes and some patches of his black hair. I hope she doesn't grow up to look like him, the thought of it makes me sad but I shake it off.I breastfeed her for the first time and it feels both very exciting and ticklish. She only drinks the little milk her tiny baby belly can accept before she falls right back asleep like the sweet darling she is.I kiss her forehead and wish her a good sleep before putting her back in her crib.My stomach growls, reminding me just how long it's been since I've had anything to eat. Despite the memory of ingesting poison coming back to me as a flashback, it's unable to drive the hunger away and I decide to get myself something.Emily, who had previously been off duty because her mother had been si
