WHITNEY'S POVI was woken by the sound of the doorbell. I glanced at the wall clock. The time was 9:15 p.m.My eyes were still heavy as I sat up and yawned. Who could it be? I wondered. Suddenly, it struck me that it was Alpha Vicker cos the maids said he usually comes home from work by 8 pm. I got out of bed and walked sluggishly to the door. I opened the door and saw Alpha Vicker standing in front of me and we made contact. Instantly, the heaviness in my eyes disappeared and my eyes swept over him. His hair was wet and his skin was looking fresh and glowing. I could smell the pleasant scent of his body. It was obvious that he just had a shower. He was wearing a white singlet and blue shorts. The singlet revealed his huge muscular arms and I couldn't help gazing at them. On his feet were a pair of blue slippers. Gosh! He is such an adonis. How I wish I can run my hands over his biceps. I realized I was swooning over him and my face faintly flushed with embarrass

WHITNEY'S POVFor some seconds, Alpha Vicker stared at me with shock in his eyes and with mouth agape. "Whitney, are you serious about what you just said?" he asked in disbelief. "Yes, I am," I replied. "Damn! This is crazy and sounds so unbelievable. Oh, I'm very sorry that you had to go through a violent rape and still ended up being pregnant," he said with compassion in his voice. "Thank you," I said with an emotionally laden voice. He was silent for a moment as he gazed at me."What is the name of Alpha Don's son that raped you and how old is he?" he asked with slight anger. "His name is Luther. He is 17 years old," I replied. "So, you mean after Luther raped you and got you pregnant, his father did not punish him severely?" "No, he didn't.""Damn! Raping of a minor is a heinous crime that attracts severe punishment. That boy ought to be locked up in jail even though he is a minor himself. Anyway, if I may ask, what was the punishment meted out to him by his father?" "His

ALPHA VICKER'S POVI was woken up by the insistent ringing of my alarm clock. I stirred on the bed as the alarm clock continued to ring. I turned my head to look at the alarm. The time was 6 am. I reached out and hit the snooze button.I yawned and stared at the ceiling as I recalled when I first saw Whitney and the conversation I had with her last night. Yesterday morning when I drove out of the gate of my house, I was about to drive from the driveway unto the road when I noticed that there was someone under the avocado tree outside my fence. I was surprised cos I couldn't understand why anyone would be sleeping under a tree at that time in the morning. From the driver's seat, I didn't know if the person was a man or a woman but I could see that he or she was asleep. I concluded that the person must be destitute and would leave anytime when he or she woke up. At first, I was about to drive off when my intuition told me to go and see the person. I pulled up, got out of the car, and

WHITNEY'S POV I was shocked as I realized that I have fallen in love with Alpha Vicker. How is that possible? I wondered. After some seconds, I lied on the bed and stared at the ceiling. I only met Alpha Vicker yesterday and I barely know him, so, how could I be in love with him? Although I have heard of love at first sight and heard some of the girls in Alpha Don's pack talk about how they met a guy for the first time and fell over heels in love with him, I never believed them. I had always thought that they are stupid to believe that one can fall in love at first sight but I guess I was wrong cos I can't explain the strange feelings I have for Alpha Vicker which I have never had for anyone and I have no doubt that it's love. When I first set my eyes on him, I was instantly attracted to him but there was no emotional feeling, so, I guess that could be just lust. However, getting to know him and his highly commendable charact

WHITNEY'S POV"Whitney, so you are serious about getting a job in Nashville, and that your boss is a wealthy Alpha?" Martin asked with a disbelieving tone. "Yes, I am damn serious. I thought you know me so well, so, you should know when I'm lying," I said."So you meant what you said that you will not come back to Montgomery until you have given birth to your baby and he is at least a year old?" he asked."Yes, I meant everything I said," I replied bluntly. He was silent for a moment and I could hear him breathing heavily."Whitney, do you love me?" he asked with a gentle tone.I was taken aback by the question."Why are you asking me such a question," I asked. "Just answer the question!" he said with exasperation. "You know I love you. You and I grew up together and there is no denying that there is a strong bond between us," I said. "You say you love me and that we have a strong bond between us, yet you are hurting me. Is that fair?" he asked with a gentle tone."What do you m
