Summer's POV."It's not like you want me anywhere close to you and the boys!" Alpha Alexander exclaimed. Before I could utter another word, he swiftly turned on his heels and exited the hospital building.Wearing a sad expression, I pivoted on my heels and, extending my hand to the doorknob, I pushed the door open."Mommy, are you okay?" Jason's voice jolted me out of my daze, as the weight of the situation hit me, leaving a deep sense of sadness in me.I was only trying to make him stay and also see how sorry I was, but I guess it was going to be difficult to do right now."Yes, Jason… I am fine! Why won't I be fine when I have you all with me here?" I responded, faking a smile on my lips so he would be totally convinced and believe me."Mommy? Who is the Alpha to you?" Jayden inquired, curiosity evident in his eyes as he sat down on his bed."What?" I exclaimed, shocked for a split second as I tried to process his question directed to me."He's the Alpha, as you know, and he's my bo

Alexander's POV. Suddenly, a searing pain surged through my heart, and I instinctively gripped my chest in a desperate attempt to hush the torture. In the blink of an eye, Liam sprinted towards me with a desperate urgency, as if time itself was wearing away before us."What is wrong with you, Alpha Alexander? Are you okay?" His gaze bore into me, filled with anxiety and genuine care, as he questioned."I'm okay, but she's not. She's in serious trouble, and I need to take action; I must help her!" I declared decisively, hoping to dispel any tension in the air.I struggled to brace myself up and get myself prepared, but then Liam was just too stubborn to see the danger I saw ahead of time."What? Save her? The blood moon is up, Alpha Alexander; you can't leave the mansion. You can't risk being caught under that moonlight, and you know the consequences," He pleaded, attempting to persuade me with his words, but I couldn't let that stop me. It wasn't going to cut it, not by a long shot

Alexander's POV."Come on, Summer... I need you and the kids at the mansion, not as a contracted breeder this time but as my mate. Come to the mansion and stay with me!" I requested, my voice low and my breath deep, emphasising the seriousness of the plea as I made the request.I was hoping she would open up, hoping she would say yes to me this time and see the danger I was seeing in her staying back at the Golden Villa. However, changing Summer's mindset remained a challenge, even at this point."In the mansion?" she inquired, her expression shifting to a brief moment of astonishment and confusion.Her eyes quickly shifted to her boys, who were standing so close to her as she gently ran her fingers through their hair. Returning her gaze to me, I patiently awaited her response."I see you are trying to help me; I see how you feel so sorry for me, just like I felt pitiful for you when you collapsed a few days ago, Alpha Alexander, but trust me, I wish I could accept the favour." She

Summer's POV."I'm sure he'll be fine," I whispered, planting a kiss on Jayden's forehead. With Jason and Kayden joining the embrace, I gently caressed their hair, attempting to instil comfort amid the tension.I decided not to stop them from calling Alexander their Daddy anymore; they had every right to cling to that."We're here, Summer!" The prompt arrival announcement urged me into action. Without a moment's hesitation, I swung open the car door and stepped out with my boys in tow.As we prepared to storm into the mansion to find Beta Liam, fate dealt an unexpected hand and just then, the door swung open, revealing none other than Ava, my step-sister."Well, well, well..." she paused, folding her arms across her chest, a sly grin playing on her lips."If it isn't the bitch herself! I see you survived, and you're still alive," she snarled, her words cutting through the air, abruptly halting me in my tracks."What do you mean by that?" I demanded, my glare locking onto her eyes, see

Alexander's POV."Alpha Alexander, please wake up! Wake up, please!"I kept hearing her call my name, her hands on my body shaking me vigorously, attempting to pull me back from the brink of death's embrace."Don't do this, please! Wake up, Alex! Wake up, please!" Her cries echoed through the room, instantly eliciting a deep sense of pity within me, even in the midst of the stillness that enveloped my consciousness.I was on the verge of smiling or laughing too, but then I had to hold it back. I had to shun any act that would ruin what I had already planned out."What's happening? Why isn't he waking up?" She turned to Beta Liam, and at that moment, I had the liberty to open my eyes slowly, glancing at her with a mixture of awareness and vulnerability.She was crying, genuine tears streaming down her face, and I couldn't help but sense the depth of love she held for me in the midst of her emotional turmoil.As she turned around to look at me, I instinctively shut my eyes tightly, fakin
