OPHELIA'S POV
After discovering that my kids had been kidn*pped, I was crazed. I had no one to turn to. The police couldn't help. I cried profusely for a while until I remembered Alpha Kian–he fathered my sons. I thought it through and pondered hard. If he hated me that much as an omega I was he might not help me. He rejected me at first so it would be understandable if he turned me away but this was his children too.
I made up my mind to return to the Moonstone pack. I would beg Alpha Kian with everything I had. I needed his help if I was hoping to see my babies again. I hated him but he was my last hope. I hope he had grown a heart now. So I set out that night, crossing the human world back into the werewolf realm. It took me all night but when dawn came I had come upon the Moonstone pack and I crossed in. My wolf did a little leap when I did. I smiled a bit–this would've been a nice thing, me seeing my mate after all these years but that good feeling was dampened. When I remembered why I left in the first place, I sobered up immediately. I need not to start feeling anything.
Immediately I stepped into the pack lands, I had patrol guards surround me. I took a sharp intake of breath.
"I'm not a threat. I'm here for your Alpha. Take me to him." I spoke calmly.
The leader raised an eyebrow at me, "And who may you be?"
"Ophelia. Tell your Alpha it's Ophelia." I muttered in a hush tone. Recognition dawned on him immediately.
It was amusing; I raised the end of my lip a bit. Kian might have forgotten me but he was sure going to recognize my name and if he didn't, his wolf would sure do.
Two of the guards led me back to the pack house. When we arrived at the pack house, they led me to the sitting room. It was a large sitting room. An hour later, a guard signaled me to follow him and he took me to the dining room.
My breath caught when I stepped into the room. A feast had been set up, it was a little party. I wondered what they were celebrating.
When my eyes landed on Alpha Kian's face again after five years my heart skipped. Kian looked happy to see me. From where he sat, he ushered me to have a seat. He was ecstatic to see me. Amber sat beside him and she looked as beautiful as ever. My self esteem diminished there a bit. All round the table were important people of the Pack.
I walked to that same seat I sat on when I got rejected. That same seat, that same room with the same people but this time Amber didn't sit by my side, she sat as the Luna of Moonstone pack. I swallowed the pain bubbling up on the inside of me.
When I settled on the seat, everyone settled as well. Alpha Kian stood to say something just like he did that night.
"Ophelia," he began. I gave a tiny gasp hearing my name from his mouth. It had to be my wolf, I still did not like this man. My wolf begged to differ, she was happy seeing her mate and back where she belonged. "Ophelia, welcome. It's been many years. We are excited to have you back."
I hid my true emotion and stretched my lips into a smile which looked as genuine as any other could be. "Why, thank you. It's been a long time but I came back to seek help actually."
A look of confusion washed over his features. He sat back down and urged me to continue. Everyone directed their attention towards me awaiting what I would say.
I had a sharp intake of breath and began, "I would like some privacy. Just you and I." Silence prevailed the party atmosphere that was just present in the room.
Alpha Kian nodded in what seemed like understanding. "Everyone vacate the room."
People rose bowing to their Alpha and Luna on their way out. Amber took a moment before she also exited leaving just Kian and I. Mark, Kian's beta stayed back.
“Alpha Kian, you have children…. with me."
I held my breath releasing it when I remembered I didn't need his validation.
"I didn't know I was pregnant when I when I left the Pack . They are triplets, two boys and a girl." I finished waiting eagerly for his further reaction.
Alpha Kian finally came out of shock.
He cleared his throat, "Why do you tell me this now? What do you want my help with?"
A tear rolled down my cheek when I remembered my babies and the fact that I knew not their whereabouts. As a mother, I felt helpless on the inside. Who knew if they were starving, who knew if Carlo was crying or if Jamie was sucking on his thumb or if Danny sat still like he did, staring at nothing in particular. Everyone was still waiting for me to continue, I wiped my tears with the back of my hand and continued.
"They were kidn*pped just yesterday evening. They were kidn*pped. A group of men attacked us and took my children away." I was sobbing now. "Please Alpha Kian you have to help me."
Alpha Kian asked after a bout of silence, "do you think these kidnappers know the true identity of your sons?"
I nodded in the positive, "I have no proof but my instincts tell me so."
Mark spoke up, "Instincts, feelings, these don't pass as proof. Do you know what this man looks like? His name? Anything?"
I chewed on the insides of my mouth. I knew io hard it would be to locate my kids. I had no lead on where they might be. I calmed myself. Cleaning my tears, I said, "I have nothing, Mark. I went to their school to pick them up because the day was over and on my way back, I was attacked. I was beaten and my children were taken. That's all I have."
A guard interrupted everything, "Your Majesty, a man is here. He requests to see Ophelia."
Looks were passed between Alpha Kian and I. I was confused too. Who would be looking for me?
