Erica:

No, I had heard wrong, he did not just say he wanted a divorce.

"Dante, you didn't just say that. You're not leaving me for Laura ." My thinking was disorganized like I was. I was trembling, he had hurt me a lot but this was too much. 

"I'm serious, Erica. I want you to leave my pack, I want you to leave me. Our marriage is over." As he said this I held my chest tight, his words hit me hard like an arrow had pierced me straight at my heart and it was painful.

"Dante.." hot tears streamed down my eyes.

"There's no need for you to be here, Erica. I had gotten married to you because I wanted a child from my mate, but you haven't even given me a child, not even a miscarriage. You know you are not the type of woman I want. You are a pathetic worthless wolf, Erica. Leave. Sign the papers and leave." He picked up the file he had left back on my Vanity table and handed it to me.

"So you mean you are leaving your mate for someone you've been sleeping around with? Please, Dante, we can forget you ever said this, I would love you as no one has before. Don't do this to me."

"I don't want to force you to do this, sign the paper and leave this instant. " 

He was trying to speak calmly when Laura walked into my room, I looked at her, she walked into my room with a satisfactory smile on her face, she was happy all of this was happening to me. Why would she be happy to see someone hurt?

"This is all your fault, Laura." Before I understood what was happening, I was in front of her, hooking her on her neck and sending a shivering slap to her face.

"It's all your fault, you witch. You're a homewrecker." As I held her she pushed me and slapped me back but I wasn't going to watch her take my man and still hurt me. I sent another slap to her face with all the anger in my heart and I began to pull her hair. 

Dante came between us and pulled me away from Laura, stopping me from hitting her while I tried to hold a grasp of myself, Dante raised his hand and sent a very harsh slap to my face that caused me to fall to the ground, hit my head on the floor and tear my lips. 

I was on the floor looking, trying to catch my breath. I took my hurting neck up to stare at him, he glared at me with anger brewing in his eyes.

"I Alpha Dante West of  Blue Hades pack, Rejects you Erica Hades, I reject you as my mate and I break every bond we share." As he said this it was like I was burning inside of me, a burning sensation grew in my chest and as much as I tried to not scream because I didn't want to look weak, I couldn't help it. I let out a scream.

"No, Dante, don't do this," I begged then I fell on my face

"Accept the reject, bitch." He spat out angrily.

I wanted it to stop maybe accepting his rejection would make it stop.

"I accept. I accept your rejection." As I said this, the pain dropped a little but it was still there, I felt the pain in my chest. 

Laura picked up the divorce papers, pulled the pen from Dante's pocket, and handed it to me. I didn't think about it, I signed it and immediately after she had gotten what she wanted, she began to pull me out of my room. She pulled me and I begged her to stop but she didn't.

I couldn't do anything, I could barely move a muscle, I had been hurt from the pain of the rejection and I was still facing so much pain. Dante is  Lycan King and I am just a random lady with werewolf scents.

"You hurting me stop, Laura." She pulled me down the stairs, not minding that I was a living thing and I was facing so much pain already.

"Your time here is up." My voice, my crying had made the maids and the ranked Lycans living in the pack house all come out. They all watched Laura throw me out of the pack house and lock me out. They all watched their Aloha throw their Luna out.

I was outside crying and begging but no one was coming to help me.

Everywhere was hurting, my head. My chest, my tummy.

"Your time here is up." Her words rang in my ear and all I could picture was my husband's unbothered face as his mistress pulled me out of his pack house.

I began to walk out of the pack house, I walked to the empty and dark road.

It was creepy, no one was out at this time and I cried as I walked. With every step, the pain all over my body increased, but there was more pain in my tummy, so I held my tummy tight. I was feeling dizzy and I was walking on the empty road all alone.

We've heard stories of rouges attacking people out on the road and Dante didn't think of it. He didn't think that it was dangerous to let me go out this mate.

I was in pain and I was asking the moon goddess to keep me safe. She had caused me all of this pain in the beginning so it was only right that she kept me safe.

I felt more dizzy, darkness had covered everywhere and the weather was becoming very cold, the sky rumbled but I kept pushing, step by step I kept going withstanding the pain in my tummy.

It was becoming too painful to bear, it was slowly going from my tummy to my vagina, I could feel a stinging pain in my lower abdomen, I have never felt something like this.

The sharp pain came again and I held my tummy tight. 

I cried. I looked down at the gown I was wearing, blood had stained it and blood was slowly crawling down my legs.

I looked around, it was completely dark and empty, no one was there and I didn't know what was happening, I touched my leg and felt the blood, I touched the blood to see if I was dreaming.

I wasn't, I was bleeding.

"Am I pregnant?" I asked myself. If I was then it meant my baby was in danger.

No. 

I tried to walk more. Maybe it would help but the pain was so much, I fell on the ground crying.

I felt dizzier and weaker, my eyes closed and I fell into darkness.

Erica:

I wanted someone to pull me out of this hell. I wasn't ready to lose myself, I wasn't ready to die, not yet.

My eyes flickered open, and white shining light penetrated my eyes, I was on a soft bed and my body didn't hurt anymore. I looked around the room, the sun shining from outside the room penetrated the room. I was In the hospital room. I was saved? 

My head banged a little as I lay on the bed trying to understand how I had gotten here, the door of the room was pushed open and a man in a white coat walked in, it was the doctor.

"Hello, I'm glad you're awake now." As he said this he went ahead to touch me on my head, used his light on my eyes, and did some other tests.

"How do you feel?" He asked and I tried to give a smile but I  quivered and I broke down.

"I don't feel so hurt like I did before." As I said this, I had flashbacks of events that had happened, the pain I felt in my chest, the one in my tummy, the one in my vagina. The baby I felt I was losing.

"I'm glad to hear that. You were brought in by a man yesterday and he brought you here right on time else you'd have lost your babies." As he said this I gasped, he could see the shock in my eyes.

"Am I pregnant?" My words were shaky and my eyes were filled with shock. I could see that he was surprised to see my reaction, because why wouldn't I know that I was pregnant?

"Yes, you are, You are 2 months gone, and you are carrying twins." The more he spoke the more I broke down in tears.

"The man and his wife are here. They would love to see you. I will let them in if you allow me." I wiped my eyes and nodded, I would love to see the people that saved me.

"Please I'd love to see them and get to  thank them." He smiled at me, he was a doctor with a beautiful smile.

Immediately he walked out of the room, a woman walked in.

She looked pretty, she had her brunette hair wrapped in a messy bond.

"Hey." Her smile was so beautiful and it was like it calmed me for a second but I couldn't stop myself from crying.

"Hey, why are you crying? Please stop, it's not good for you or your baby."

"You saved me, you saved me from dying out there in the cold, you saved me from losing my babies."  I felt all the pain in my chest left me as I said this. There was a reason to live. 

"I wasn't the one who saved you. My husband did, I have only arrived here this morning." I smiled, I cried, I had missed feelings, my emotions were a mess but she pulled me in a hug and I felt myself get calm.

"You smell so good." I knew she was trying to distract me from crying but how could she make out my scent? I barely had a scent. It was probably my baby's scent.

"It's probably the babies." She shook her head negatively.

"You smell so good. Forget that, can you tell me how you got there, why were you out that late at night?"

There was nothing to hide. 

"My husband divorced me, rejected me, and threw me away from the pack house after I caught him sleeping with the lady he called his cousin. He said I was barren, he threw me out because I didn't give him a child." I cried so hard. Now I have a child he would accept me.

"I love him so much and now I have his children. I should go back to him. I should tell him that we are having babies soon. He will accept me." I wanted to climb down from the bed but she pulled me to sit back down.

"No." I was not understanding why she was not letting me.

"He doesn't love you, if he can let you go that late at night and hurt you this much then he would hurt even your babies ." 

"You don't know him, he would love his children."

"Look at me." She made me stare into her eyes.

"I will not let you go back to someone who did this to you. You deserve better, your children deserve better, and he will do worse to you." I cried as I stared into her eyes, she was telling me the truth and I knew it, Dante didn't deserve me or our children.

"Do you understand?" I nodded and she pulled me into a hug. 

I watched the door open and an older man walked in, he was probably her husband, I held her tighter, closed my eyes, and cried on her shoulder, I had never cried to someone, I had never felt this comforted before. 

No one had ever cared for me this much.

Dante should go to hell with his stupid mistress, I'd move on, I'll give my children life and I'll take care of them.

Still entangled in her arms, I let my left hand out and ran it on my tummy and I held it tight.

I will not go back to Dante ever. Even if I work as a maid to take care of my children I will. This was a good thing, a blessing in disguise because Dante didn't deserve to be a father and he didn't deserve the love I had given to him all this while.

"What's that you have tattooed on your hand?" Her husband who stood at her side watching her engulf me in a hug asked.

She pulled away from me "What's that hunny?" She asked and he pointed at the mark on my wrist.

"I don't know, I have had it ever since I was found by the lake in Blue Hade's pack."

"You were found by the lake?" They both questioned in sync and their voice was a bit hitched. Like they knew things about my life that I didn't know.

"Yes ." 

"I was found with a little boat, this mark on my hand was a fresh wound and the blanket in the boat  had my name on it." As I said it they both turned to each other. They gasped and were puzzled.

"Erica?" They both called my name in sync again.

"Yes, my name is Erica," I replied calmly and they looked at me.

"Did you happen to have a bracelet?"

Six Years Later

Erica:

"Will you marry me, Erica?" Lorenzo was on his knees, stretching his hands, he showed me the little box that had the most beautiful ring in.

"I want to make you the happiest woman, Erica, give me the chance to make you mine." 

"Will you marry me?" Why was I giving this a thought? I had agreed to get married to him, I had told my parents I will get married to Alpha Lorenzo for the sake of my children so why was I finding it hard to say yes. I swallowed the lump that had formed in my throat and I nodded. It was just the both of us in the open field.

"Yes Lorenzo, I will marry you."'I smiled, I am happy that I am doing this for my children.

"Thank you." Lorenzo grinned from ear to ear, he put the ring in my finger then stood from his knelt position, and cupped my face gently.

"Thank you for making me the happiest Alpha alive." He kissed me on the lips and I kissed him back.

"I'll scream to the world and tell them that Erica is mine." I laughed. It was all fun with Lorenzo and if I had not thought my heart to not fall in love again then I would have loved Lorenzo more than the way I do.

"Thank you so much Lorenzo." I pulled him into a hug and he held me tight.

"No thank you for letting me in your life, thank you for letting me be a father to your children." It was like my smile faded but it was still there. I thought, maybe if Dante had loved me he would have been a part of his children's life. 

It's been six years since I had been divorced, six years since I had been saved by my real family, I had found out about my twins which turned out to be triplets. Life had been going smoothly for me and I had learnt to take charge and control. 

I was no longer the same woman that begged her husband to love her even after I had caught him in bed with his mistress, and even if I am not a Lycan or I am not as strong as he is, I am an Alpha and will be getting married to an Alpha soon.

I had gotten to know Lorenzo the day he had come to our pack for a meeting with my father, I had bumped into him that day, his charming smile somehow gave me butterflies in my tummy. He was very polite and since then we have shared this strong bond, he's always been there for me, for the three years that I have known him and I think it's only right that I should be there for him too. 

Lorenzo, a good looking Alpha that ruled a very huge pack with a lot of warriors and members and had worn wars in the last few years since he became Alpha, as gentle and as loving as he looked, Lorenzo was also fierce, strong, agile and good looking. 

I sat beside him on the mat we had spread out in the open space, it was just the both of us having a little time. The kids never gave us the time to be alone because Lorenzo always wanted to be around them.

I wiped the crumbs of cake on his lips and he chuckled, I stared deep into his black beautiful eyes, he is so huge and only a hug from him will probably swallow me up.

"You're a good man." I muttered.

"And you're a good woman." He gave me a soft kiss on my lips and I smiled.

I chuckled.

As we cuddled each other up, my phone rang out loud. I took my phone from my bag. It was Beta Ian.

As I placed the phone on my ear all I could hear were loud screams, yelling and wailing of people.

"The pack is under attack." as he said this I stood to my feet and turned to Lorenzo.

"The rogues attacked. We needed to go.'' Before I could finish my statement, Lorenzo was on his feet, we drove back to the pack and  indeed we were attacked, it wasn't a minor attack we had lost a lot of soldiers, who had risked their life to save people.

I had been gone for only a few hours and all of this happened?

I and Lorenzo helped get everything in order and when things had become a little stable we headed back to the pack house.

"Ian." I called as I walked in.

"Where are my babies?" I asked. 

"They are with your mother" He replied and I heaved a sigh.

"Where is my father?" Everywhere was tense, warriors were running around trying to help save lives. The pack was a whole mess. 

"Baby." My father walked out of the meeting chambers and the moment I saw him I ran into his arms, seeking warmth and comfort. 

"Dad what's happening?" He slowly pulled away from the hug.

"We need help, Erica." He held me in my arms.

"We are losing our pack, we might lose our pack Erica."

"No we won't, we will fight, we will get help. Lorenzo's pack can help us." As I spoke I looked at Lorenzo and who was standing beside me.

"We were also attacked. I also need help." He nodded his head negatively.

"I don't think my pack can help you." At this moment I got scared, just hearing this from him. 

"What can we do dad? We are slowly going down." We had earlier contacted a few packs and they had bluntly refused to help us because we were at war with the rogue King and no pack was ready to get into the mess with us. 

"I have asked for help from the  Lycan King but he needs our help too."

"Lycan King?" I froze, hitched an eyebrow and then stared at him. I know one Lycan King in the state here. 

"Which Lycan King?" My dad looked at me and all I could see was the pain and the worry for his pack.

"King Dante." He stated.

"Dad." 

"He has said he wants to meet me, Erica but I cannot go. You know I have to be here to take care of my pack. Ian is too young to go either, he has no clue on what to say."

"You want me to go in your place, dad?" I asked and he nodded.

Dad gave me a calm look and used his eyes to tell me he had other things to say. He knew Lorenzo had no clue about my past and he was not going to say anything in front of him. 

How do I tell my Fiancé that the Alpha my father is asking help from is the Lycan King  that is the father  of my children and the Lycan King  that has made me what I am. 

Lorenzo rubbed my back softly as he tried to calm me down.

My dad stared at me like he had a lot to say to me.
