Chapter62Aric's pov.“What?!” Aaron yelled with worry in his mind. He didn’t see it as anything basic. He was shocked as though I had just spoken about a pack abomination.“What's wrong? We're trying to fight for what's mine. I don't understand what's going on anymore. I'm confused. Why are you acting like there's something wrong with what I told you?”He shook his head, a stronger expression showing on his face.“There's nothing wrong with starting a war with another pack over a woman?” He asked, still confused. His voice was in a high pitch tone, and he was trying not to seem like he was yelling.“And what's wrong about that? The last time I brought you here, I recall it was to strategize, and not to ask you what you think about everything.” I reminded him, causing him to relax on his chair with the worry on his face.“So what are your plans?” I asked, but he shook his head. “I don't. I don't really have a plan. I wasn't expecting this, and I'm still shocked.” Aaron's words made m

Chapter64Aric's pov.I moved towards the dungeon to go see my beta who had been locked up for about 2 days. The place was reeking with the smell of blood, and rusted metals which were from the bars that was used in the prison gates.I raise my nose in disgust, trying to contain the stench I inhaled in. It was too unbearable, and I wondered how he had not been able to crack. If I were in his shoes I would have tried my best to make sure that I got out of here without any delay.The place was crawling with insects and pest, and with our status, we didn't even get to see those every day, "so why wasn't he begging to accept my offer yet?" I pondered.My guards escorted me until I got towards his cell. However, I stopped when I saw I was really close to the cell.“Stay here, I want to have a personal conversation with Aaron,” I replied with the strong expression on my face. I didn't want them to see my beta, or hear the conversation which we're going to have because it was highly confident

Chapter66Aric's pov.Mia had called me on the cell phone almost like she was about to call me to my death bed, or something.I was uncomfortable, my head spinning like crazy. I didn't know what else I was doing, my brain was fixed on how to go to the pack with my men to bring back my woamn. However, I still believed I convince my beta to do something for me.I was still thinking about everything, but I still needed to find out the main reason why she was calling me so much even when she knew I might be busy.I found it really worrisome that I involved her back in the plan, but she was the only one who knew the in, and out of the pack, and also where Kira's room was located.Picking up my phone, I dialled her number and place the phone on my ears, waiting for her to take the call. There was a little bit of entertainment by music playing in the background before she finally picked the call.“I've been calling you, what's the matter, are you scared, is that you should no longer want to p

CHAPTERKira POVfew days later...I had a splitting headache and it made me really angry with everything. I couldn't count on the pack doctor at this point, as I had already thrown up this morning. Dizziness had been the major theme of my body as well.I heard a knock on the door and Mary stepped in with a smile on her face, which would immediately fade away, the moment she saw my face."Why do you look different?" She asked, but the nausea was too much for me to explained things to her. "Kira? Is Lucian aware about your ailment though?" She asked and I shook my head to say yes to her. "Then why isn't he with you?" Mary asked "Because he went to get the pack doctor. I think they said something along the lines of the pack doctor having a busy schedule." I barely managed to speak "Busy schedule? What other schedule would be busy for him not to attend to you?" I didn't even want to make reply, I was to weak."What exactly is wrong with you. I might just guess what is wrong after all.

Kira's pov We raced through the underbrush, branches whipping at my face and clawing at my clothing. I could hear the wolves drawing closer, its feet pounding the earth with a relentless rhythm."We're almost there!" Mary panted, her voice tinged with desperation.And then, just as I thought we were lost, I saw it. A clearing in the woods, a silver car in the middle of the woods."The keys are in the ignition," Mary gasped, shoving me towards the vehicle. "Get in and drive!"But no matter what we tried, the car refused to start, so we decided to use our legs.The world around me was a blur of noise and motion, my mind reeling from the chaos that had erupted all around us. I clutched my swollen belly protectively as Mary's firm grip guided me through the dense forest, away from the battle that was raging.My heart pounded with fear and confusion. Where were we going? What had happened to Lucian? Was he safe? I wanted to turn back, to see for myself, but Mary's voice was insistent, urgi
