AUDREY'S POV When I opened my eyes, it was night already, and I figured it'd be time for dinner soon. Little Logan hadn't shown up today, so I assumed he probably spent the day with my mate. My mate. I couldn't help but think about all that had happened this morning, while I proceeded to the bathroom for a bath. Were my actions right? Was I right to push him away? This was the first time he was trying to be intimate with me since I returned, and I had arrogantly pushed him away. But still, he had no right addressing me in such a degrading manner. And why was he even trying to touch me, when Heather was still in the picture? I suddenly felt so angry all over again, and hurriedly finished up my business in the bathroom. I stepped out and went through my hygiene routine, applying so much moisturizer. It was a chilly weather, and it seemed like it may probably rain tonight. Putting on my simple black gown that stopped mid thigh, I decided to let my hair fall freely tonight. P
LOGAN'S POV Oh goddess. I was such a fool! A fool!!! I punched my hand into the wall of my room. I really didn't mean what I had said about Heather. How could I marry her when we were no longer together? I didn't mean it, I just wanted to spite Audrey. I thought she had 'really' kissed Ares! 'After this war, I would reject you, King Logan'. Her words resounded in my head, and my heart thumped painfully. What was I going to do now? I couldn't afford to lose her, I'd go crazy. "Pacing back and forth wouldn't solve any issue." I didn't need to look back to know it was Isla. "Logan, do you have a problem with not messing things up?" "I think I do." I admitted with a low sigh. "I would go crazy if she leaves me, Isla." "Then you should be thinking of ways to fix things." "It's beyond that now!" I pulled my hair in frustration. "Audrey looked me in the eye, and told me she hates me. She promised to reject our me!" I rushed out, unable to keep my shaky hands in place. "
AUDREY'S POV Giving me the key to his library, like it was going to make up for all the disrespect and insults he showered on me. Asking me to forgive him like he even meant those words.... "Audrey!" "Sorry." I muttered, pulling myself out of my personal thoughts. "What did I say last?" She asked, looking somewhat disappointed. "Emily....." I sighed. "I'm sorry, please don't be mad." "Only an inconsiderate person would be mad at you. You're clearly going through a lot of ups and downs with your mate. I can't imagine how draining it must be for you." She exhaled, hesitating to say her next words. "Are you really going to reject him?" She looked worried. I honestly didn't have an answer to that. Did I really have the guts to do that? I know he hurt me, but..... "Don't you also plan on rejecting his father after the war?" I chuckled dryly, but she remained silent. Immediately, I looked up at her. "Emily?" "I heard you." She said, licking her lips. "I know y
LOGAN'S POV We both sat in my study, stealing glances at one another, as we waited for Isobel and Isla to talk. They had both suggested that we went somewhere more private, and I absolutely agreed. I definitely couldn't sit in that dinning room, and discuss my personal matters in the presence of others. I stole another glance at Audrey, and I didn't need anyone to tell me that she was also as scared as I was. I truly couldn't explain how it made me feel. I felt hopeful. She didn't want our bond to be destroyed, and that showed for something. Atleast, my new habit of dropping flowers at her doorstep every morning, was probably softening her heart. Oh, goddess! I loved her badly. And being away from her was so emotionally draining. "You both..." Isobel began. "The disappearance of that mark, is a new beginning for you two. Now, you truly have your second chance with each other." She smiled, and went ahead to explain. "A mark is meant for assurance. A mark is supposed to be
AUDREY'S POV I had just left the library, and thought to take little Logan up to my room. I wanted him to spend the night with me, but then, it was already time for dinner. I didn't want to leave him alone in my room, and have a repetition of what happened the last time. I didn't want him waking up alone and getting scared. Just as I walked into the dinning room, I saw a woman, standing and talking to Layla and king Xavier. The room was semi full, but everyone was just silent. What was happening? 'Denver?' I mindlinked, and got replied almost immediately. 'Audrey! The king's mother just showed up. And it seems to be that she has some bad news'. 'Oh, no!'. The next minute, Logan breezed in from the direction of the library, and I frowned slightly. Was he coming from the library, because.... "Mother?" He called out, looking very concerned, and pulling me out of my thoughts. "Logan!" She quickly turned to him. That was when I clearly saw her face. She definitely looked
LOGAN'S POV As I stepped out of the shrine, I was surprised to see Layla and Isla already outside, waiting for me. "How long have you both been here?" I asked, and Layla shrugged. "Not too long." "How was it, Chief? Was it positive?" Isla asked, looking hopeful. "I wasn't shown a thing." I muttered in disappointment. I couldn't even believe it. This was the first time Hecate was turning her back on me, since my initiation as Chief custodian. "Oh my...." Isla whispered in understanding. "Don't worry, all will be well. We just need to have faith." What was faith going to do for me at a time like this? The woman I loved, just put herself on a death sentence, and I was supposed to try and act cool about it? I know she took her position as Luna, very seriously. But I just couldn't stand by and watch Sebastian get his hands on her. I had to do something, and it had to be fast. "She has been waiting for you all day." Isla whispered. "If I were you, I would leave every othe
AUDREY'S POV "Hmmmm...." I could feel my breathing become shallow. What was this pleasurable dream? It felt so real. I was dragged back to reality when I felt the firm pinch on my nipple. Fighting the drowsy feeling of sleep, I slowly opened my eyes and that consciousness brought another heightened level of consciousness. "Haaa...." I sighed heavily, looking in between my thighs to see Logan's head buried in there. "Fuuuuccckkk...." I dragged, my eyes rolling to the back as I felt his tongue continuously tease my clit. I felt it rolling up and going in between my labia, and that was when I lost it. "Oh, goddess! Logaaaan...." I felt my cheek getting wetting from my tears of pleasure. My curious hand leisurely made its way down, fisting a hand full of his soft long hair. "Logan.... please." I begged, unsure of what I was begging for. Maybe I was begging to be let through the door of my climax. But I guess he had other plans coming, because the next second, he was pulling his
AUDREY'S POV I could hear my heart beating so loudly, and it made a frown appear on my face. I didn't like the idea of being scared. This was a bold step I was making, and I wanted to feel bold as well. "Give me your hand, my love." Logan requested, taking my hand in his. 'We can turn back this instant, if you're having double minds'. He mindlinked me, and I shook my head in refusal. 'Whatever you wish, just know you're safe'. He assured, and a small smile made its way to my face. This was the first time we were speaking to each other, since we left the palace. I looked at the Fae king, who looked very distraught. My heart went out to him. I wasn't pleased that he, or any other person was suffering because of Sebastian's wickedness. When we left the palace, queen Brienne was a weeping mess, and she continued blaming herself for putting me in danger. I actually thought it was the other way around, seeing as she and her beloved had never even planned to fight in the war. Seb
THIRD PERSON'S POV She looked around in disappointment, seeing as he was yet to return. After they attended Audrey and Logan's wedding, he had escorted her back to their pack, and left to where she hadn't an idea, that same night. For 4 days now, he was yet to return, and she couldn't help the agony she felt within. She hated herself for caring so much, but it was almost impossible. Everyday, Ryan kept opening parts of herself, that she promised to keep closed forever. She hated how much she missed having him inside her. A few days before Audrey's wedding, they had gotten into a serious fight, which was partly caused by this certain maid he used to fuck, before she showed up. She couldn't believe Ryan had defended that woman, over her. What was she even thinking? The fact that they spent one drunken night, sharing some information about their dark pasts, didn't mean that he would suddenly start to see her as more than his breeder mate. In a way, she did blame herself for their
AUDREY'S POV It was a great day for me. I sat still, looking at the mirror, as I watched the omega perform great magic on my hair. "A few more pins, and we would be done, your majesty." "Of course." I nodded with a small smile. "Take your time, love." She continued fixing pins around my hair and humming in satisfaction. Just then, the door burst open and Layla stepped in, looking so lost in her preparations. "Put it there." She instructed another omega, who stepped into the room with her. "The dress?" I asked, and she literally jumped around, clapping her hands excitedly. "Yes, the dress! Audrey you need to see the altercations Lilian made. It's sooo fucking beautiful." "Oh? Great! I just hope she still maintained the accurate fittings." "Of course, she did." Layla grinned. "Ana, please do it quickly with her hair. The officials are already trooping in." "They are here already?" I asked in surprise. "Audrey, it's past 12 noon! The joining ceremony was slated
AUDREY'S POV 2 months already, yet it still felt like yesterday. Our lost soldiers, officials, and the knowledge that my baby is the Flaming Wolf. I definitely hadn't stopped feeling so good about it. Logan and I were blessed. We had both formed a child who was gracious enough to be chosen as the reincarnate of Kora. I placed my hand on my big tummy, caressing it as I looked down the balcony. She loved it here. She would always kick whenever I stepped out to the balcony, where all her father's flowers were pilling up. The placed definitely smelled just as wonderful. He literally changed the flowers daily, and groomed the place like it was an actual flower shop. Just two months ago, there were a lot of soldiers training on the training grounds. Now I looked at the grounds from the balcony, and just a few soldiers were jogging around. It was so encouraging how everyone learned to move past their pains and losses, looking ahead to a better future for us all. It certainly wasn't
THIRD PERSON'S POV Rosa stared at the man, who just sat still in front of her. She had been so mad at him before the war, but after she almost lost her life.... she didn't know why it felt like it was best being with him, no matter the situation of things between them. She knew Audrey would remain in the palace with her mate, and couldn't imagine returning to the Blood moon pack alone. Even if Audrey decided to make her stay in the palace with her, she knew she'd never really be satisfied. Not because she craved to be with Ryan or whatever, but because she felt she could only attain her full potentials by returning with him to his pack, as his Luna. She was done being scared and closeted, she was going to take the bold step of change now. She was going to become a Luna, walk with her head high, and know what more the moon goddess had in store for her. Definitely, the moon goddess had made him her second chance mate for a reason. And surely, the moon goddess decided to spare her
THIRD PERSON'S POV Audrey fell to the ground in pain, losing awareness of her surroundings as she cried out in pain. She felt the anguish flow through her veins, clawing to be purged out through her skin. She felt her skin burning hot as if coals of fire were sprouting out from them. All the while, Logan and every other person around her had stood, watching her in shock! Her skin was red hot, and Logan was confused and worried. His worries had turned into shock and amazement the moment he heard her bones cracking into structure. Then, he knew it within himself. His mate was the Flaming Wolf. In a matter of seconds, Audrey's wolf emerged in a different form and dimension. The furs of fire around it, had made the rogues around them to start retreating. The Flaming Wolf was soooo huge, standing a few feets shorter than Logan's supernatural form. The astounded tribrid had been too shocked to make a move. Slowly, his mate's wolf turned to him, and the next words dropped from his
THIRD PERSON'S POV "Fight to the death!!" Sebastian yelled loudly, and the rogue army joined in with loud cheers. Their energies had been really boosted within the week, after the successful siring of more hybrids. It was safe to say that more than half of the rogue wolves, had decided to turn into hybrids. "Is it time?" Mark muttered beside Sebastian, and he nodded. "It is time, my friend. Let's go take over." They all began their march towards the boundary, chanting their war songs as they did. 2 hours in, and they were finally approaching the boundary. The rogue witches began to make their enchantments, fog filling the entire place. Sebastian knew that was the method of a cheat, but he didn't mind. Anything to win the war. "Now?" Annabelle asked him, and he nodded. "Now, Annabelle." Just then, Annabelle slipped out of the show and walked a distance away from the army. Just as she opened the portal to transport herself, someone held her arm. "Mother! Where are
LOGAN'S POV We took our time bathing each other, as I wondered if we were going to be like this again, after the war was over. I prayed in my heart that we won this war, and that Audrey remained by my side. We had just made love in the most intense and extremely emotional way I have ever known. I was pretty much still stoned from the beautiful experience. I didn't want to believe that we would soon step out of the bathroom, and gird up for battle. "What are you thinking?" She asked, hugging me so closely. "How I don't want to lose you." I whispered. "And what are you thinking?" "How miserable I would be without you." She sighed, and I felt hot fluid on my chest. She was crying. "I love you." I professed, holding onto her much tightly. We could literally break each other, from how strong our hold was. "I love you. Even in the face of death." She whispered. Stepping out of the bathtub, I carried her in my arms and walked into our room. Taking my time, I dried up her
AUDREY'S POV I so much wanted to believe that something could be done about Isla's disappearance, but the glaring truth remained that we couldn't do much. We could only hope. Isobel and Keturah had done their best the whole week, trying to know her whereabouts through a locator spell, but everything was just blank. It was as if her energy had completely disappeared from the world. "Audrey." I looked up to see Layla standing at the door of the study. "You've been here most of the days, all week." "I can't just sit around idly. I don't want to believe we've lost Isla." My head fell in defeat. "Same here." She walked into the study. "My brother?" She asked. "I don't know. He left here a couple of hours back. Probably trying to put one or two things in order, before the war. It's tomorrow, Layla!" I sighed deeply, unable to believe my own ears. "It is." She nodded. "I can feel the tension around. I am scared. For my kids." She added, making me look up at her. "You know
AUDREY'S POV "I do not want an inch of her room to be left unsearched. Check every single place, and let me see all you could find." I ordered Boyd, who bowed and left the room. I turned to Logan who still looked to be shocked. 'This was long coming'. I muttered through our mindlink. 'How?' He turned to me. 'Heather never seemed like the type to hurt anyone unjustly. She was my friend, for 2 years'. 'And 2 years is enough to know someone?' 'I fell in love with you in less than weeks, Audrey'. 'Really?!' I glared. 'Oh well, why don't you go ahead and tell me how you also realized how much of a betrayer I was, in a matter of one month?'. I stood up and walked out of the council room. I didn't mean to fight with him, but was he really trying to defend Heather? The woman had just taken away Isla! She is his friend, how could he care so little?! Heading towards my room, I mindlinked Layla. 'Audrey! What's happening?' 'Layla, please ensure that the kids are fine. I can
