*Monica's pov*
When I arrived at Baxter's chambers, the guard there informed me that he's at his study, still bubbling with excitement, I ran to his study.
I was about going in when I overheard his conversation with his beta Harry. I was quick to hide, so as not to be noticed.
"I don't care about her Harry. The reason I bought her was for her to give me a heir, it's been two damn years and still nothing from her!" Baxter spat, his voice held so much hate and bitterness.
"She's better off dead than staying alive and not being useful to me. Who knows if she's just a barren wolf, I made the mistake of choosing her."
"So what are you going to do? The other ladies aren't able to produce an heir either." Harry said.
"Then I'll keep searching for someone to carry my child. As for Monica, she'll keep facing hell on earth until she's pushed to take her own life, she's just a waste of time and is better off dead!"
My heart shattered hearing those words. I knew he didn't love me, but I didn't know he hates me to the point where he would even wish me death.
I'm nothing but a tool to him, all he needs is an heir and nothing more, when he gets what he wants, there's no guarantee that he will keep me alive.
The reality hurts so much, I placed a hand on my chest as I felt a painful sensation in my heart. Hurt tears rolled down my cheeks, I couldn't continue hearing more of his hateful words. I quietly went back to my room, feeling so dejected.
When I got to my room, Ruth hurriedly came to meet me, her eyes held so much joy and excitement in them, but the joy vanished when she note the expression on my face and tears in my eyes.
"Monica. What happened? How did it go? He wasn't happy about it?" She asked in one breath.
"I couldn't tell him." I cried. "I just couldn't, not after hearing what he said." I hugged Ruth tightly.
"Shh...It's okay, it's going to be okay." She comforted.
"I just can't live like this Ruth. I'm tired of this life, I don't want to stay here anymore, I just can't bear this anymore. My heart is in so much pain, I'm afraid I'll die if I continue living here, I can't stay here." I cried.
"Please tell me what happened.''
It hurts so bad to recall everything Baxter said, but I managed to explain everything to her.
"Oh no." She gasp in shock when I was done. "He said that!!?"
"My child and I deserve better, I want my baby to live a happy and peaceful life. I want to be there to see my baby grow and take part in every stage of his life."
"Baxter feels nothing for me, he sees me as nothing but a breeder and since he believes I can't give him a child, he plans on doing worse things than he's been doing."
"I can't stay here any longer Ruth, I fear for both myself and child. If I tell him, I'm sure he'll send me away or worse still kill me when I have the baby. I just can't continue staying here and hoping that he was going to change when nothing like that will happen."
"Oh Monica, where will you go?" Ruth asked, her eyes glistening with unshed tears.
"I don't know Ruth, but somewhere far away, somewhere Baxter will never find me nor my baby. It's a good thing he doesn't know I'm carrying his child, I doubt my presence will be noticed." I said with a heavy heart.
"Will you help me Ruth?"
Ruth looked at me for sometime before nodding. "You know I'll do anything for you Monica. I'll just..." She trailed.
"Miss you so much."
A sad smile spread across my lips. "I'm going to miss you too Ruth." I replied before hugging her.
"You're the only one who's ever shown me kindness ever since my father passed away. I thought I had no one but you showed me otherwise, you've been there for me during the difficult times and you're the reason I'm still alive."
"Thank you so much Ruth, I promise to never forget you and when this baby gets older, I'll be sure to tell him about this amazing aunt he has." I said, causing the both of us to laugh.
We both held each other for so long until Ruth pulled away.
"I'll go pack you some food and everything you'll need."
"We'll leave by midnight, I know a place where we can follow without being noticed by anyone."
"Thank you. I'll also get ready." I said and she nodded before leaving.
I went to sit on the bed. Baxter's words kept on ringing in my ears and each time tears dropped from my eyes, I kept on wiping it off. I made a promise to myself that I won't cry anymore, there's been enough tears already.
I'm going to become a mother soon and it's very important I stay strong for my baby.
It might not happen and there might be no possibility of it happening, but I do hope that a day will come when Baxter will regret every of his actions.
I placed a hand on my tummy as I made a promise to my child to shower him with so much love and care. The love I wasn't given, my child will get to experience ten folds of it.
Midnight came very fast and we quietly set off, if I had been doing this alone, there's no doubt that I'll be caught, but with Ruth's help, leaving the palace wasn't too difficult.
We went through a tunnel which no one visits, the tunnel leads to road I can easily escape from.
When we finally arrived, that was when I faced the hardest part of this journey.
Saying Goodbye to Ruth.
There was so much crying and hugging and as much as I would have loved for her to come with me, I knew it wasn't possible.
"Do take care of yourself and the baby okay." Ruth said and I nodded.
"Take care of yourself too Ruth and thank you for everything."
"You don't have to thank me for anything. I'll do this a million times over, you should get going before anyone notice."
I hugged her one last time before turning to leave, after walking a little while, I turned around to look at her one last time and it took every of my will power not to run back to her again.
She waved me goodbye, but I couldn't wave back as it was too difficult for me.
I sharply turned around and continued walking. This time, I didn't look back and for the first time in forever, I saw hope for I and my baby.
Hope for a better future.
*Baxter's pov* I woke up to the news that Monica was nowhere to be found. Her personal maid was the one who had raised the alarm of her disappearance. I had ordered a search party to go look for her and I was currently pacing around my room waiting for some information. My blood was boiling with so much rage, I was extremely furious. "Why did she leave? How did she even escape from here?" I asked myself but I couldn't find any answers to the questions I seek. Yes I admit that I've been treating her so badly, more worse than anyone deserves to be treated, but this wasn't how I wanted her to leave. A knock sounded on my door, jolting me back to reality. "Come in." I ordered and Harry my beta walked in. "Anything?" I asked. "No Alpha. There's been no sign of her anywhere, if she's been long gone, then I doubt that there's any hope of finding her." "Well then keep searching!!" I thundered. "I don't care if you have to move the heavens and the earth just find Monica! I want her b
Baxter's pov"my what!!" I was shocked when I heard of this and was deeply traumatized.I looked at Ruth straight in the eyes and felt my wolf reacting in a very wild manner."Why didn't you inform me, you smallie?" I held her by the neck, almost choking her."Alpha. Ehh." she trailed off."I had no choice," she said as she was breathing very slightly, almost losing consciousness.I took my hands off her, and she regained herself."Did you think there would be a choice when you helped her escape?" I sat down on my chair, and I kept rolling my hands into a fist.She looked up at me and her expression changes into a sad one and she tries to stand up to her feett."I did not let her escape." "Then who let her escape!" I spat."She had no choice, you treated her with cold hands and now you also want her dead" I looked at her filled with both remorse and anger. I was getting hurt at the moment but it would be very hard for me to just get soft."Who told you that I want her dead!" I bark
Monica's pov*Exile*While I exempted the trinity pack, it was a dangerous journey across the borders of the trinity pack.I covered my face with a black robe in order to hide my identity from anyone who would try to recognize me. As it was in my recent situation. I was in exile.I had not wanted to flee the Trinity Pack.But I followed my heart, and I did not listen to my mind.I wanted to see myself as I am, and I also wanted someone to love me.As I passed the cities and the streets, I made sure to stay low.I saw vicious wolves all around me, looking at me.It was a very strange journey. One that will be able to change me forever.Any time I look up to any of the wolves, I will always see Baxter's picture in my mind. I loved him, but he decided to abandon me.He really hurt me, and I don't have any place in his heart.I would never get back to him or cross the Trinity.Since my stepfather sold me to him, I have changed ever since, always surviving on my own and living my life simp
Baxter's povAs I headed towards the bar, I was so upset that I could not concentrate. Monica's departure from the trinity pack has made me restless, which I could not imagine.I would not care if I treated her right or wrong; she is my property, and I would bring her back very soon.As I walked through the streets, I sighted my usual bar and walked straight into it. It was all full of drunken wolves and outcasts, but that is what we are."Look at them, useless set of cunts," I said to myself.I glanced at the bar; it was full of drinks and strong alcohol. I went over there and sat down on a stool. I placed my hand on my head, and it was hot."Oh my goodness, am I sick or something?""Waitress, come over here," I called out.The waitress stood in front of me; she was a very beautiful lady with a very nice body structure. Normally, there were loads of very seductive and hot women out here. And I would always want to admire them every day.The woman stood in front of me, looking drunk.
Monica's pov*Exile*"Don't worry, mama, everything is going to be okay," I said as I placed my hand on her back.It is very sad to see her heart broken. Losing someone very dear to you is not something anyone would wish for.Werewolf politics is one thing that gives everyone a setback and also makes you lose your loved ones.I am also a victim here; werewolf politics brought me to where I am today. Abandoned and lost. I was drained of everything I had just to satisfy some wicked set of wolves.I faced the woman and held her hand, "I hope the Alf pack has no hand in this".She forced the tears that were about to come out of her eyes inside and tried to bring herself together."It all started with them. It all started when their Alpha died," she said as she cleared her throat.I was taken aback when I heard this.This was definitely going to be about him."Tell me more; I could help you think over it." I tried to raise her hopes.She stopped what she was doing and closed her eyes a lit
Monica's pov*Exile*"I will be going now," I said to Mama.It has been nice staying with her, but staying with her for long would mean danger for me.I know that they are Alpha Baxter wolves looking for me out there.She looks at me and nods. "Okay, we will meet another time, Monis."I waved back at her and waved in response.I started off going through the skypack. I had almost walked halfway across the city.I felt my body reacting in a strange manner. But I did not respond to it; rather, I continued on my journey.Vomits….At once, I threw up. It was not strange at all. I was pregnant and in the first stage. I felt bad about myself, and I was not comfortable."Are you okay, ma?" someone said to me.Without looking at him, I nodded in response, "Yes, I am okay. I was just reacting after eating a very bad meal today."He tries to take a clearer view of me, but I do not allow him."Did you need help?" he added."No, I said I was fine," I spat. "I just want to be alone, please.""Alri
Baxter's povAs she followed me, I took her down to the brothel next to the bar that I was in."Now move up!" I spat.I was already burning with lust, and I was overwhelmed. I could not concentrate; I could only think of fucking her.I went over to the receptionist at the brothel and requested a room. I could get any room I wished for.As he grabbed her by the hand and dragged her upstairs,Immediately we reached the door of our supposed room, I purposely dragged her butt; it was so soft that I had already gotten myself thinking wild.Moans…!I grabbed her as she made sexy moaning sounds."Do you like that?" I spoke softly in her ears.She closed her eyes, and she was already into me. It was obvious that she did not waste any time letting me in."Yes, Alpha. Touch me everywhere," she said as she continued mourning.I moved forward as I pushed her into the room. She jammed the door and faced me. I grabbed her by the waist, and in no time, she was already on the bed, preparing for me.S
Monica's pov*Exile*As he got closer to me, I tried to resist him, but he was too strong for me; I could not hold him for long.Without second thoughts, he grabbed me so tight that I was becoming weak and running out of strength.Slash!As fast as I could, I gave him a very mighty slap across his face and immediately ran away from his grab. His men were in awe, and they chased me heavily this time around.And I could not escape again; their leader came and squatted down beside me and massaged his broken face.He looks at me as if he were going to strangle me to death in a very fast way. He takes out his hand and rubs it across his face, looking at the blood dripping from his hands.I had given him a very mighty blow, and it was the one that actually gave him a mighty wound."You little rat," he spat out, "look at what you have done."His eyes became wide, and his anger was rising on every level that I could never imagine.He could think of killing me with this type of anger again, bu
