Chapter 57Beta Miles POVShanna has been a bone in my throat ever since she got discharged from the hospital. It's been one impossible demand to another and I've tried to be patient with her but she was really getting on my nerves."You know what you're asking of me is impossible, Shanna." I said sitting opposite her. She sat up on the bed, an evident scowl on her face."What makes it impossible? You're my brother and the Beta, asides you being the beta of this pack you're best friends with the Alpha, you've powers, why can't you just utilize it for once? Listen, this is my only chance, my only chance to live my dreams and you're the only one who can make it happen.""Can you listen to yourself talk? You sound so stupid right now. You're recuperating, you should focus on nursing yourself back to health to resume pack duties rather than going over this bullshit. You're acting like a child, I thought staying in the cell must have changed your mind or maybe worked some magic on you, but
Chapter 58Beta Miles POVShanna makes the worst decisions for herself and I will never forgive myself if she ends her life and I did nothing to redeem the situation. I am still dealing with the pain of losing my parents and I cannot bear to lose my sister. I don't know if I can ever bear the pain and guilt.I bumped into that useless rogue at the foot of the stairs and it filled my heart with an extreme anger that I couldn't just explain. She was the reason for all this mess and the major reason why she was behaving like the world revolved around her shoulders was because Dane was giving her too much importance.An annoyed growl rumpled out of my lips, rogues were good for nothing, entirely meaningless and all they did was constitute nuisance. I took one last look at the rogue as she climbed the stairs holding a tub of ice cream. Maybe I knew just what to do to get her out of our lives forever.I walked into the room and I heard the sound of the water running. It turns out my mate wa
Chapter 59Shanna's POVPain.Anger.Frustration.All of these, I felt and more. Miles has been avoiding me, he was not talking to me anymore, it was almost as if I was non-existent and I knew it was because of his stupid wife.She was the one making him do all this because she has never liked me and she saw me as a spoilt little brat.Life was easy before she came into the picture. Before now, I could easily manipulate Miles to do whatever I wanted but the reverse is the case now with his mate in the picture.He listened to her more than me and he sought her opinion on things that were supposed to be kept secret between us.It's been two weeks, two fucking weeks we had that discussion about the rogue and Alpha Dane and he has not said anything and anytime I try to bring it up he brings up another discussion instead and those two were getting closer and I was losing my patience.That dumbass was slowly weaving her way into everybody's heart. Even though my brother is developing cold
CHAPTER 60.Shanna's POVHold on.Was this what this was all about? Because I asked Miles to help me get Dane's attention?I should have known.She has never liked Miles helping me with anything, it is always a problem to her. She always feels Miles gives me more attention than her, hence her jealousy."Can you listen to yourself, he is my brother first before being your husband. I can make my brother do anything he wants, he is answerable to me. In case you do not know, mother made him swear to always be by my side." I said with a hint of pride in my voice and she sneered and looked at me with disgust."Your mother did a terrible job raising you." she said and i turned to her in hopes that she'd repeat her words so I can do justice to her face."What did you just say?""You heard me, no offense. I know she is my mother in law but let's call a spade a spade. Why would she even make Miles swear? What happened to independence? Her upbringing made you feel so entitled, self centered and
CHAPTER 61SHANNA'S POVI am finished!My past was finally catching up with me and I do not know what to do. How do I get Angel off my case? What do I do to make her drop all these threats and pretend nothing ever happened between us?"If this is about the slap, let's just let this slide, here..." I said flinging out all the contents in my bag till I found my ATM card, and shoved it in her palm."That's my card, it contains all my life savings, you can have it, in fact I don't need it anymore, you can buy all the fancy things you love, let's just pretend this never happened.” I said breathing heavily hoping she'd agree but the smirk on her face proved otherwise."You really think this is a joke don't you, what do you think your stupid monthly savings can do for me? I am a Beta queen, I've a fat bank account topped with millions every month, what more can I possibly ask for. I don't need your stupid money." she said, flinging the card back to me.Indeed, this was bigger than I thought.
CHAPTER 62Tristan's POVMika seized my keys and her father instructed the guards to open the gates for me and not just that, Mika locked all the doors in our apartment knowing fully well I had a pack meeting to attend.My thoughts were swirling so quickly in my head that it was hard to follow them. I had so many bad things to do to Mika but I was just restraining myself, my patience was running thin and she was acting on the fact that I ignored most of her actions."What's all these Mika, have you lost it? First, your father locked all the gates in my pack and now you're doing this, why are you hellbent on frustrating my life?""Well, you caused this upon yourself. I am tired of being in your shadows, at least give me some relevance.”"What are you talking about Mika?" I asked with my brows furrowed in confusion. These past few days I've done everything within my powers to avoid her but somehow she always brings trouble to my doorsteps."You know what I am talking about Tristan, you'
CHAPTER 63Tristan's POVSix hours.Mika has been in the hospital for six good hours and still, the doctors were not out to give me feedback on her current state.I was beginning to regret my words, I shouldn't have told her I was going to reject the mate bond. That must have triggered the asthma attack.Yes, the doctor said Mika had asthma and she had not had an asthma attack in years. He stated that it was very serious so she had to be on oxygen for a couple of days to aid her breathing.I pleaded with my male Beta not to inform Mika's father, if he found out his precious daughter was in the hospital, and worse still because of me, he would rip my skull apart without mercy.I feel like a horrible person. Looking at it from another angle, I felt like I was the reason all this was happening. If I hadn't come to Nightshade Pack and asked for a merge, none of this would have happened and neither of the women would have fallen in love with me.Gianna would still be here as the Alpha of
CHAPTER 64Miles POVAngel didn't come downstairs for dinner and Shanna was not with her like she had promised. She has been acting moody ever since and I needed no soothsayer to tell me something had transpired between the both of them.Those two were always at loggerheads, I don't even know what they were fighting over, but they could not stand each other's guts.After a brief meeting with Alpha Dane concerning some pack issues we had to settle the next day, I quickly returned to my room.Angel was sitting on the bed with arms folded across her chest sulking. She didn't even acknowledge my presence as usual. I walked towards her and held her hands gently."What's wrong baby, you don't look good. You didn't come downstairs for dinner and so did Shanna, did something happen?" "Nothing" she answered, fiddling with her fingers and turning her face to the other side. I pulled off my shoes and sat on the bed facing her. I cupped her cheeks and she winced like she was in pain."What's goi
