? EMERALD POV?
I come down from my car and walk into my father’s company. We have not been in good terms ever since our argument the other day.
“Welcome Miss Anderson” his personal assistant greeted me as I made my way into his office.
Dad just resume back to work, and I got here immediately I heard about it.
“Father” I said and he stare at me in annoyance.
“It is supirising that you still consider me your father Rachel, for a moment, I thought you forgot about the real relationship we share as father and daughter” he said as I moved my eyes moved over to him.
“Why? because I stood by Xavier and refused to be a part of something so wrong?” I asked at a go.
“That man hurt and broke you beyond repair Rachel. How can you be so blinded by love that you forget everything in the blink of an eye?” he asked in annoyance.
“It is not like that father, you should understand too that we humans are not perfect Let’s not also forget the fact that we are not exempted from this, I also hurt Xavier the
same way
he hurt me infact, we did worse….” I trailed as my voice broke at the edge.
“And that is because he and his pack deserve everything we threw at them. I don’t know what went wrong Rachel or why you have decided to stand by that man after everything that has happened” he said and I sighed.
“What is the use of dying in pain when I still feel the same way about him? hurting him is like hurting my own self dad, let’s not forget the fact that we have two kids together. and those kids are your grandchildren. It is high time we put all of these things behind us and move on” I said and dad scoffed in annoyance.
“It is either you choose between me or your relationship with Xavier Jason!” Dad bursted out angrily and I stared at him in shock.
“You are not serious about this, are you?” I asked and he stood up from his sit and he tucked both hands in the pocket of his formal pants.
“Do I look like a clown to you dear?” he asked and I have never seen my dad so serious. like this in his life.
“You are willing to disown me if I choose Xavier over you? How can you think so little of

the bond we share Father? You of all people should know how hard it will be for me to choose…” I trailed as my voice broke at the edge.
“Don’t stand there and tell me long epistles Rachel, it is either you choose between me or you choose
avier!” he bursted angrily and I moved backwards.
“You can’t choose?” he asked and I could sense the pain in his voice.
“You really can’t choose because you love that man! How would you do something so cruel to me Rachel ?” he asked and tears rolled out of my eyes.
“I gave you a life!”
“If I didn’t show up that night, you would have drowned your self at the boarder. Where was your Xavier when that happened?”
“Where was Xavier when you have to bring his sons to the world all by yourself in that outhouse like a prisoner !” he said raising his voice in a higher level.
“Dad, I have forgiven him and he has forgiven me too. It is high time we all move on” I said and he looked away quietly.
“Leave !” he bursted angrily.
“But Dad let me…” I trailed.
“I SAY GET OUT!” he bursted angrily and I cried as I made my way out of the office with trembling l*ps.
I got into my car and drive back to Xavier’s pack, the ride back to Xavier’s pack was a silent one. Jax noticed my countenance and joined me.
“Luna” he said as he made his way over to me with a worried expression on his face.
“Is everything okay Luna?” he asked and I just stared at him as my heart squeezed in hurt. Jax was slowly becoming the younger brother I never had.
“Talk to me Rachel you look devasted” he said calmly.
“I am devasted Jax. I just got out of a heated argument with my dad” I said as we made. our way into the pack house.
“And what was it all about?” he asked curiously.
“He wants me to choose between him and Xavier” I said and Jax looked at me in shock.
“That must have been terrible choice’ he said calmly.

“I don’t know how to feel Jax, this whole thing is beginning to take a toll on me. I love my dad and I love Xavier” I said as I break down in tears completely.
Π
“Everything is going to be okay” he said but deep down I knew dad wasn’t bluffing when- he said what
– said.
“I feel like dad is taking this too far, Xavier and I hurt each other and we have now come to the agreement that we can’t do without each other. So why can’t my father think: about my happiness?” I asked calmly.
“It is not as easy as you think it is Rachel. It is not easy to look at a person that broke his child beyond repair and forgive them” he said and I just stared at him speechlessly.
“Have you seen the Alpha today?” I asked curiously.
“He has been busy with pack duties and I don’t think he will be back until the last meeting which will end by 4:00pm” Jax said and I gave a nod.
“Don’t worry too much about your father Luna, he will come around’ he said and I made my way towards our room.
When I got there my eyes moved over to the picture of my sons and I burst out crying all over again. Deep down I was scared about a lot of things, and I need assurance that everything was going to be okay.
If I have the power to change things, I just want everything to be normal, I just want Xavier and I to be in peace and genuinely happiness with our sons as a family. I just want dad to forgive me.
? XAVIER POV?
I sit calmly and listened to everything the pack elders have to say. They all stood up from their sit as they apologize for the steps Jayden took and the unbelief they had in my regime as the Alpha of the pack..
“We sincerely apologise Alpha Xavier and we pledge our loyalty and support…” the elder trailed as he made numerous promises.
“I hold no grudges towards the realm or the pack. Jayden was friend who decided to turn to an enemy that is something I will not tolerate anymore” I said and they swallow down nothing as they stole glances in my direction.
“Anyone that betrays the pack or question my reign as the Alpha would have his/her self to blame for it ” I said and they bow in fear.
“I will choose the next beta of the pack soon, and until then I want everyone to continue

protecting the pack as the elders” I said and they bowein respect.
We talke about some other important aspects of the pack and we come to worthy conclusion.
“Alpha, the seer is here” one of the omegas said as he bow in respect.
“Cephar?” I asked in shock.
“Yes, Alpha” he said and I gestured for him to let the seer in..
“Alpha Xavier” he said and bowed in respect immediately he joined us.
“It’s been a long time since your last visit to the Red blood pack, is everything okay?” 1 asked and he stared into space.
“There is a fast and strong trouble approaching, Alpha” he said calmly and my heart freeze for a second. The pack is already experiencing major hit, and I don’t want to think of what would happen if we faced another one.
“An
enemy will bring about a terrible break down of the pack and it’smembers” he said and even the elders mirrored the expression on my face. We are all worried about the well being of the pack.
“What do we have to do to overcome this trouble?” I asked trying my best not to show that I was shaking by the piece of information.
“Stand your guard and be prepared for whatever happens” he said which only made me more confused than I already was.
The meeting ended and Cephar left like he never came, I have a meeting with the soldiers and encouraged them to keep high level of excellence in their post.
“Everything would be fine Alpha” Jax said as he bowed in respect.
“I think we should recruit more members into the team of soldiers” he suggested and I pinched the bridge of my nose.
“I just want everything to be alright Jax, this whole thing is messing with my men tal. health” I said and he sighed softly.
“I understand how you feel Alpha” he said and I walked back into the pack house. As I approached my room, I remember that I haven’t seen my woman throughout the day.
I made my way into the room and she was on the bed, crying silently. My heart squeeze in hurt at the sight and I took fast-strides towards her.
“Baby” I said and she sit up immediately, as she tried to wipe her tears I held her hand.
Chapter 52
I saw you crying already Em, what’s wrong who hurt you?” I asked as I held her hand lovingly.
“What, no …it’s…nothing” she said sniffing back her tears.
“It’s definitely something Em, I just walk in on you crying your eyes out and you say it is nothing” I said and she burst out crying.
‘I ….I don’t know how to explain this Xavier. Am so sad right now…” she trailed while crying and I’ve never seen her so devastated.
“Hey, you wanna talk about it? I’m here” I said and her hazel eyes met mine as tears.
rolled out of them.
“Stop crying, I can’t bare it I said and she sniffed back the tears.
“Dad….he…he” she stuttered out and I pull her into my arms as I rubbed her back.
At this point, I did not know if what I was doing would help relieve her from the pain
I just wanted her to know am always here for her.
After some minutes, we both sat down quietly as I rubbed her ams softly.
“He wanted me to choose between the you and him” she finally voice out the reason for her tears.
“I tried to make him understand just how much you both mean to me, but Dad wouldn’t listen” she said choking on her own tears.
“Hey, it is not your fault. He is mad at me and I believe he has every right to be, but
what am very sure of is that, he will definitely come around” I said and she stared at me.
“You think so?” she asked curiously.
“I know so” I said and she moved closer to me in a hug.
