Martains's POVThe door swung open, "father!" I stood up surprised to see him in my office. I can't remember the last time he came over to the office.He had never been here after my coronation as the alpha and his handover."Father, you didn't inform me that you'd be coming. It's been a very long time you paid a visit here." I asked a little bit surprised."Can't I come here again? You won't even usher me in." Father said with a straight face.I guess, no I mean, once and alpha is always an alpha."How can I prevent you from coming here? You have the right to come here anytime you want."He walked in and sat down on one of the three seater chairs facing each other.My father was a strong alpha leader in his reign and was loved by his followers till date. He stepped down when I was 28 and since then, I've been in charge."How is work? I can see you haven't been here for a while after the whole scandal." He said looking at the pile of different files on the huge mahogany table."Yes fa
Luciana's POVIt's been a day after the announcement of my new position as the Luna and Martains's choosen mate. I'm very much enjoying the position. It was one of the things I have always wanted and now, I have it.Having all these people in Oakstone under me as the female leader of all the females feels great to be on top.This kind of achievement does come with a price. However, as a steel who has gone through thin, thick, and fire to get here, I would not back down so easily.The pack house has become the central room for dissemination of gossip on why and why I shouldn't be the Luna.I didn't need to take a step to know every word said by gossips and naysayers. Mia, my loyal subordinate and maid always brought me the gist about me in the pack.But it wasn't time for me to take any action yet. I'll still give them the pleasure of talking for some days. I have different men planted in different parts of the pack even among Martains's subordinate men. It may be surprising to know t
Luciana's POVMy eyes widened in shock seeing that mark, that familiar mark. I'm sure it is the one I know because it cannot be copied or duplicated.I raised my hands to my mouth to prevent the words from coming out but I soon realized what I was doing. It was too late however. All eyes were now on me including Martains's.Damn! How do I divert their attention now?"Ouch! Ahh!" I held onto my stomach and kept yelling."What's the matter, Luna?""Babe, are you okay?' Martains got to me and held my hands in his with worry on his face."The baby... The baby is..." I stammered."What's wrong with the baby? What's happening to you? Talk to me." Martains urged me on as he was beginning to get anxious."The baby is kicking hard all over. My stomach is in pains. It hurts." I said and slumped on him to make it look real." Somebody inform the pack doctor to get set. I'll be carrying my wife over to the house now. Take care of these Intruders, beta Carl. I'll check up on them later." Martains
Alpha Martains's POVI left the room after making sure she was fine. My mind had flown far away thinking the unexpected might have happened.Now, I would have to interrogate those rogues or unidentified wolves who dared to step into my territory. They would have to spill it if they were spies sent to spy on our pack.The land has been in peace for a long time and I won't let them cause problem here."Beta Carl, how far with the men? Have they confessed?" I opened my mindlink and communicated with Carl."No beta. They have refused to talk. They seem to be loyal subordinate of whoever their leader is." He replied me."Where are you now?""In the dungeon. The trial hall specifically. We are waiting for you to come over." He answered."I'll be there shortly." I said and went downstairs. I sighed knowing it was going to be a tough task to make those men say a word but I do have my way around things like this.I dressed up, changing into a more free and casual dress. I got something to eat
Ashley/Olivia's POVI've been in this pack for some days and I must confess, "it's a nice place to be." They are just a small collection of people who are happy and content with having an alpha rule over them.A part of me was thinking to just settle here and start all over if I can't recover my lost memories. Or even if I recover them, and there is nothing tangible to make me go back to where I come from, I'll choose to stay here.Having people who would support you fully is another thing. What if I go back and nobody even remembers me? After all, I'm nothing but dead to them.I have decided to be more friendlier with the people around me. I don't think I know the butler's name or those who have been in charge of taking care of the house.I'll get closer and establish a good relationship with them. But I first need to know what the old Olivia was like. I'll ask Eloise about that."What do you think, Lola?" I asked her through our mindlink. She has been silent and just lazying aroun
Ashley/Olivia's POVThe driver took a different vehicle which I have not seen Lance use before. That means he had more than one car. Aside from him being a beta, does he have any other responsibilities? It's evident that he is financially well-off.A beta who possesses his own residence, employs numerous servants, and indulges in a life of opulence must have other endeavors contributing to his wealth.As we arrived at Eloise's residence, I was taken aback by its portable appearance yet classic design, resembling a lavish mansion."Is everyone in this pack so wealthy?" I couldn't help but ask no one in particular.Eloise's house was located a mere fifteen minutes away from Lance's, reflecting her affluence.I stepped out of the car and surveyed my surroundings. It was eerily silent, as if the vicinity was deserted."You can go back. I'll call you if I need you." I said to the driver and he drove back home.My knowledge about Eloise's personal life was limited. I couldn't even confirm
Lance POVAfter Olivia went out to see Eloise, I was bored in the house. Alpha Greg had refused me from performing most of my duties as the beta. He had insisted I took a break from work to be with Olivia who just came back home.This was the first time I was hearing and experiencing something like that. A beta going on a break without a cogent reason. I would understand if it was just for a day or two but two weeks was way too much.How would the alpha cope without a beta assisting him?I couldn't even do my morning rounds on the pack's welfare. This was frustrating.My business was doing well and there was nothing much to oversee so I basically had nothing to do.I sat down in my study for the rest of the morning hours flipping through different books and files.I only stood up from the chair in my study room when it was midday. I was about to take a stroll outside when I felt someone trying to reach me through my mindlink. It was alpha Greg."Come over to the office now, beta Lanc
Ashley/Olivia's POVThis was the second time I would be going over to the human territory. It some days after the first and I was thrilled to be going there again. Not just for the sight seeing but for the main reason.The last time I went there, during the wonderful massage, I recalled something and I was hopeful I would remember something more clearly this time.I don't know if I was one who knew something different was happening to me during the massage session. I guess I was the only one as the doctor was in between in the probability of me recovering my memory or not.Lance had a look of worry on his face as we were about to leave the house. I walked from the car, closed the distance between us and hugged him lightly. He was startled by my action."Don't worry, I'll be fine." I said and smiled at him.I didn't know why I did that myself. Maybe it was unconscious. Him and Eloise had truly cared for me since I came here. It would not kill to give him a hug.He drew me into his own
