Arnold's Pov "You haven't eaten anything since we came back. What could be troubling you?"I looked at my Beta, "I am not hungry""But at least try and taste something. I don't feel comfortable with this sudden change""And I said, I am not hungry!" I yelled.I expected him to turn around and leave but he stood still and unshaken."Do you know her?" He asked with so much worry on his face. I wondered why he was bothered."Why do you ask?""I asked because I haven't seen you acted so silent like this. What could be eating you up?"I bite my upper lips with my teeth. I contemplated on telling him what was going on in my mind but at the same time, it will warrant to some many questions. "Yes, I know her""What about the child? I saw the…""Hey! Know your boundaries. Out of my sight" I blurted. He wanted to talk but I signaled to him with my index finger. My eyes were already turning red because I was getting pissed. "Leave!"He saw the brisk of heat on my forehead and left without sayin
Anna's Pov It is barely one week since we packed into our new apartment and Demitri has been our regular visitor.My kids are so used to staying around him. I don't like his regular visits but what more can I do? When my kids are in love with him.It's past 3:00 and I have made up my mind that he is not going to come again so there is no need to prepare something for him.It seems I just heard my name but I continued to wash my dishes."Mom, Uncle Demitri is around?" I paused what I was doing and turned to my Kylie."Did you see him?""Yes, I saw him walk into the building" I was about to say something when a knock came through the door."Here is he," she said, jumping on one foot before the other.I watched her as she struggled to open the door but her hands couldn't reach the door bolt. She quickly got a small chair and climbed on it.I was amazed, with my hands clasped together as I watched him carry her up and peck her forehead. He put her down and hugged the rest.The joy on the
Anna's Pov "Please you can come in" I breathed in and out before I followed the doctor into the room. I got a call from a stranger through Ella's phone that she was involved in an accident. I don't know the impact of the injury. I made sure to lock up my kids at home before coming to the hospital. I followed the doctor inside immediately, "How are you feeling?" The doctor asked Ella, touching her neck to check her temperature. I didn't hear her voice. I tried to stretch my neck to look at her because the doctor was covering the view. "You can take care of your friend. She had a small impact on her leg but I assure you that she will be very fine by tomorrow" I nodded my head, "thank you, doctor" When he left the room, I sat down beside Ella and touched her forehead with my palm. "How are your children?" I was shocked to hear that from her. "They are fine. I heard what happened and ran to the hospital immediately" She struggled to sit upright but then, I quickly and gently hel
Arnold's Pov Where do I get to find her? I turned to ask the young man some questions but he had shut the door. This got me pissed."Are we to leave?"I looked at him angrily, he quickly turned his gaze away from me. I walked towards the car and thought of what to do next. Suddenly, my phone vibrated.The message I saw on my phone made me enter the car immediately, "Speed off quickly to the hospital!" I yelled.I walked briskly not minding the people that walked past me. I quickly went into the doctor's office, "How is she doing?"."Come with me please". I followed him as we walked into the private room. My hands were cold. I can't explain what was going through my head.As he opened the door, I saw a body lying on a bed covered with a white cloth, The doctor placed his left hands on my shoulder and breathed deeply, "Be comforted, she couldn't make it."I was still in a state of confusion when he opened the covering, the shock made me stand still, as I gradually folded my hand into a
Chapter 12 Arnold's Pov I was standing outside the pack with my hands crossed at my back. I was lost in thought but passers-by will think I am receiving some fresh air. A lady passed and greeted me to which I responded but it became something different when she asked me a question that no lady had ever summoned the courage to ask. "Alpha, hope you are alright? It is hard to see an Alpha standing outside the pack. In my pack, anybody that wants to see the Alpha must come into the pack" She caught my attention, "Young lady, you talk too much. The pack where you are coming from ain't the same as mine" I was a little bit stern but what surprised me was that she wasn't discouraged. "Am sorry, but whatever disturbs an Alpha needs immediate attention. I can be of help" I wanted to rebuke her but the smile on her face revealing the teeth calmed my nerves a little. I always love ladies with boldness. She must have come from a strong pack. "What's your name?" "I am Kathrine" I took her
KATHRINE'S POV I will have to go there myself instead of waiting for him. I kept rolling from one end of the bed to another. "I can't wait for the day to break" I didn't know when I slept off. "Kat, it's daybreak" I ignored my mom, pretending not to hear her. She walked up to the window and drew the curtain open, allowing the sunlight to shine on my face. I turned my face to the other side of the bed, "Mom," I mumbled. "Wake up and set your activity for the day" I gradually sat down on my bed. I looked at my wall clock, "Shit!" I jumped out of my bed and went to my bathroom. "What is it?" I didn't care to answer her, I locked the door of my bathroom and began to shower. I have a target of meeting the Alpha before he leaves the pack. As soon as I came down from my room, my mom invited me to the dining table. "I don't know where you are rushing this early, but you have to eat something" My stomach was tight. "I still don't have the appetite" "No, you can't leave the house like t
ARNOLD'S POV"Alpha, she has gone to the city"I dropped the paper I was holding and stared at my subordinate. "Who?""Kathrine"I stamped my feet unconsciously and stood up, "How? What has she gone there to do?" There was no response. I can't explain how I feel."Anna must be protected at all cost""But how is that possible when we can't find her. We don't even know where she stays"I bit my lower lips, staring into the empty air looking confused. "What do we do now?""Maybe we should go to the city, then we can figure out what next to do"I understand what he meant, but going there without a clue wasn't nice. "Get me a glass of cold juice" I ordered him because my body was getting heated up.I collected the glass from him, took a sip and paced up and down in my room. "What else do you need?""Leave" I took one more sip and dropped the cup on the table.I think going to the city would be a good idea. From there I can be able to control things. But how do I find Anna? Kathrine is capa
(ANNA'S POV)"You have been indoors for the past few days. Why not try to attend the club and know if you will bounce back?""Ella, you know the reason why I chose to stay" I wrapped myself into the blanket because I was cold."Are you sure that you are alright?" Ella walked closer to me and used the back of her palm to touch my neck. "Hey! Anna, you are not feeling too well"I was surprised to hear that because I didn't notice. "You know what? Stay here, I will get something for you to drink"Ella quickly left the room. I crawled out of bed and moved to where my kids were still sleeping. I rubbed my hands over their body."I will have to protect you all at all costs" I remembered that Kathrine is the nightmare I have in the city.Soon Ella arrived with a bottle containing a liquid substance, "You have to take this now." She shook it, poured some of it into a cup and diluted it with water."Ella, what is this?" I sniffed and covered my nose with my hand. "The smell is irritating""The
