Ember's POVThere was a need for me to be told twice before jumping in front of them. How did they manage to capture them and lead them here without anyone's knowledge or even trying to alert me? He chuckled. "you can see that you have no choice but to do my bidding then and only then can we finally get to do what we should have done in the first place. Well, I don't blame you at all. If you know that you are just going to waste your time, it won't take me to destroy the people you love the most in your life. I hear that the Alpha loves children so you'll produce new ones for him." His words didn't even make any sense because why was he acting as if it didn't take a lot to make a child? "You don't have to speak condescendingly about my husband. You can either allow us to have a conversation or you forget it. Why the unnecessary talk?" The man gritted his teeth for a minute. "I've stated my case since the moment I came here but what were you all doing? Acting like you could outsmar

Ember's POVI moved back when a hand clamped over my mouth, my first instinct was to make sure that I drove a harsh kick into the back of his knees so that the assailant would let me go but for the most part my body had become numb.I threw all my weight in that direction and relished the groan that escaped his mouth. "Hold your horses, lady. I'm the one who saved you earlier. Are you trying to kill me?" He replied and I smiled, before turning around to see the face of the mystery man. He was beautiful. That was the first thought that struck my mind."What are you doing here? I thought you were trying to keep an eye on my kids?" I whispered before turning to look around and seeing that a man was dragging them away. "Let me go and attack that man." "You're injured, Trent got this."Well, I'd be damned if I left all the work to Trent. That man was fighting those mutts like his life depended on it. "I can't stay here and watch them drag my kids away." "Let my guard take you back to

Ember's POVNow, I was saddled with the responsibility of getting to know myself afresh. It was just as I expected only that I wasn't ready to be in that mix and in that stupid situation but all the same I wanted to get out of this box. I needed to understand what Ruel meant. It was just two weeks later and there was no explanation that seemed to suffice. Trent and I were on good terms but we weren't really talking. I didn't know what was wrong with him and I was having a turmoil that was threatening to consume me."Did you see what happened at the market yesterday?" I inquired from Sonia who was busy arranging the yarns. "No, not really... You should know that I don't really have the time for that ma'am, but I overheard a few maids saying that it was all Elise's fault."I stopped writing, my pen hovering over the book. "Was Elise present at the market?" "Yes, she was. I think it was... I don't really remember all that they said because I was going to send the goods through the fer

Ember's POVI was walking down the hallway only to find out that there was light coming from Trent's room. Why was he not in his office as promised? I turned toward his room and heard soft music coming from within. Well, this was a first and I never thought that this was possible. If there was a new thing that I wanted to discover, it was the fact that my husband was a music connoisseur. This was lovely to find I knocked calmly and waited for his permission to enter. "Hey, come in." He muttered and I didn't wait to be told twice before rushing in. I was smiling when I took a seat. "I didn't know that you were awake. Why are you up at this time? It's quite late?" He responded and I shook my head. He was lovely and I was feeling very bored tonight His eyes bored into mine and I smiled. "Hey... Why are you gazing into my eyes like we just met?" "I know right? It's just because you're the most beautiful woman that I've had in the previous meeting. Others don't compare to your matchl

Ember's POVI jumped out of bed immediately I heard the car sound. It was growling loudly like it had so much to say. When last did Trent service this car again? That would give me an inkling to know if I should blame the car or blame him.I glanced at my watch. We were having a meeting with a few Alphas who thought that it was their right to claim what we had worked earnestly for and it got me laughing After that accusation, Elise left the house and not only that, he made sure that there was a bit of display of love here and there which I only took in good faith without bothering to know if there was a thing attached to this.I donned my two-piece suit as I twirled to stare at myself in the mirror because that seemed to be the only way that I could actually know how I looked."There is a difference between being stunning and looking beautiful." Trent's voice wafted into the room and I turned with my hands placed across my heart. He got me scared for a minute."You shouldn't do that.
