Although his father is no longer the alpha of their pack, Caspian refused to collect his regal and big golden chair, knowing fully well how the man loves and adores the chair. It's expected, he had ruled with the chair for the past forty something years.

CHAPTER 14BODY CRAVINGS TAHLIAEverywhere was cold and she was beginning to feel numb, her skin was freezing but her body felt hot. She held Katherine's hand as if it would help keep her life intact in her hot body, at this point she feared for her life.Tahlia tried to say something to the worried Katherine but nothing came out of her mouth, she looked up and saw many female hours maid walking around with wet towels and ice water, muttering concerned words, all looking scared and worried.A tall young woman dressed like a doctor with big glasses on her nose and a stern look was talking in a hush tune to Luna Elaine who also looked stressed and worried.“Wh… what’s happening to me? Am I going to die?”She manages to ask Katherine, who quickly smiles at her and squeezes her hand in reassurance, the lady has been holding her for the past three hours since their arrival.If Tahlia wasn’t in a state of “close to death” she would have smiled at Katherine and thanked her for her support, b
CHAPTER 15 THE PLAN QUILLIONBreathing heavily he banged the dinner table, his father and sister stopped talking at once, “Shame on you both! But I promise you… that girl has gotten rid of you and your plans won’t work! He’s not a devil like you, father!”Alpha Bryony shook at the unexpected Loud noise from the sound of the table but he quickly gathered himself together, “Son! Why are you so worried… good riddance to rubbish, let her go!“Quillion looked at his father with deep irritation and annoyance, he would have slapped the man if he wasn’t his father, he turned away from him and looked at his crying sister.“And what’s your problem… why are you here crying, you should have cried in front of alpha caspian and had your head removed from your tiny neck!” He shouted at her angrily“All these years your younger sister was here! Close to you in the same house… but what did you do, have you ever cried for her, no! … instead you torment and frustrate her… if given the chance you would
CHAPTER 16 HUMAN HEAT GRINDA She was screaming at the top of her voice and nobody seemed to come to her rescue, the handsome blue-eyed man didn’t flinch at her loud scream and curse.Instead, he focused more on undressing her, he had successfully pulled her tight jeans off and was working on unbuttoning her shirt, she grabbed her cloth tighter to her almost naked body with her two hands and shouted at him to leave her alone but it was of no use.They were both soaking wet in the shower, he turned it on immediately, and he dropped her in the big bathtub, already he had removed all his cloth and was half naked, except for his wet expensive-looking boxers that were holding firmly to his beautiful shiny skin.She refused to check him out but couldn’t fight the urge, at long last she gave in to the temptation, he has brown tan skin with perfectly toned skin color.Although there were few scars, they seemed to make him look more handsome and manly, his chest and stomach were firm and sex
CHAPTER 17 SWEET DREAM Immediately Caspian skin touched her cold and iced cold skin, she moaned in satisfaction, and all her bones that seemed to be pulling out of their joint with little force, some minute ago relaxed at once.She clung to him like her life depended on it and called out his name softly. Since the heat started she had not been herself and it felt like her soul was being yanked out of her body.But at that moment she felt like she was floating, she tried to open her eyes but could not, more surprising was the fact that she wasn’t bothered about it.She didn’t seem to be scared that her eyes refused to open, instead, she allowed her body to sink into his and held him tightly, taking in his scent and hanging on his every breath.“I’m here now rabbit… you will be fine, she felt his touch as he rubbed his hand the full hand of ice all over her body, from her hair to her toes.She was feeling the coldness of the ice now, about a minute ago she wasn’t feeling anything but
CHAPTER 18 ACCEPTANCEREGULUS Hot tears were rushing from her eyes and she was crying loudly, regulus felt like his gut was being punched repeatedly, he held her two hands firmly so she won’t hurt herself. The bead of sweat was all over her body and she kept on pleading for mercy, calling him the blue-eyed man. Thanks to the rite her human body could block the pain to an extent and that’s why she could contain the mating heat in the first place, because the human body can’t hold the wolf heat. That’s why the doctor had injected her and the protective oil rite was also done before the heat set in. Normally for a wolf, the mate's body heat, and intimate touch with ice would do the trick. But since she’s fully human, only the protective oil can save her from the heat, after that the wolf mark will emerge on her right shoulder just above the breast, her mate wolf mark. Regulus kept glaring at her shoulder, hoping the mark would come sooner so she can get out of the pain, he couldn’
TAHLIA For the fourth time she tried to open her eyes to see her environment, but they were too heavy and the light seemed to be fighting against her efforts. She clicked her tongue in frustration, but a sound jeered her attention, and that was when she noticed that she wasn’t alone. Like magic or maybe adrenaline push, her eyes flew open immediately and she grunted in pain as her eyes tried to balance and get used to the room's brightness. Two young and beautiful women were standing very close to the bed she lay on. Judging from their face and skin, she would be older than them by a few months or a year, give or take, she looked them over before moving her eyes away to view the room better. “Welcome back Luna!” They both chorused cheerfully, too loud and cheerful for her liking, she swung her head to look across her bed and found another woman in her mid-fifties or soUnlike the two young women, she stood straight and strong with a stern smile on her lips. Also very beautiful.“
ALPHA CASPIAN POV Grinda and Tahlia shot out of their sitting position immediately the Lycan king walked into Grinda’s house, he couldn’t enter her bedroom so they had enough time to rush out of the balcony to meet with him.“I looked for you in your chambers and you weren’t there, I knew immmediately that you had come here after I warned you not to” that was the first thing the Lycan king spat at his wife; Tahlia.“I… I’m sorry, we couldn’t stay away from each other without knowing that we are fine… please … don’t punish me” she begged, clasping her hands tighter, the fear grew on her face and body at every second that passed.“It’s okay …. Go back to your apartment … I want to speak with Grinda … you should rest, don’t walk around yet” he responded, forcing his wolf to stay calm.Alpha Caspian was frowning but it was not because he was angry this time, it was because his wolf and darkness were forcing him to get mad at his wife again, and he didn’t want to, especially agter seeing
TAHLIA’s POV Immediately Grinda heard about Tahlia’s recovery she sent her maid to sneak in a letter to Sam, knowing fully well that Sam would deliver the message without getting caught; she loves Tahlia so much that she will happily take the burn if she even gets caught. “Don’t tell me to calm down … I haven’t seen my girl for days now, I’m worried… I can’t believe her husband would do that to her!” Grinda yelled angrily at the guard standing by the door.Beta Regulus; hee mate, had placed the young warrior there to keep her indoors and grounded as her punishment but she had successfully turned him into her gossip partner. Grinda had been fidgeting since her maid went on the crucial and risky errand, she would get caught, including the fact that she hadn't seen Tahlia for days now, all she knows is that Tahlia is better and back to her chambers.The young warrior rolled his eyes at her playfully, definitely enjoying the discussion, he quickly opened the door to stretch his head in
TAHLIA POV The queen mother wouldn’t leave Tahlia's bed side, she had been lying there for a few weeks now and it was getting worrisome, the king as well was distracted but had to be strong for his pack people's sake.“Take it easy…. Just rest your back here, finally you can be discharged .., ohoooo, my dear…. Welcome back” she beamed at Tahlia who smiled widely back at her.But almost immediately her smile waned away and a Worrisome frown replaced it, the queen mother already knew the cause of the immediate change in demeanour, Tahlia had remembered why she’s still in the hospital.“How’s Grinda … how’s she, hope she’s fine? …I totally forgot, please I would like to see her” the doctor who had just unplugged the drip from her hand gave the queen mother a knowing look who in turn gestured for the doctor to excuse them.Same with Sam and her other maid who had been with her for the past week, Sam in particular wouldn’t stop worrying, “you need to reduce the volume of your voice … and
QUINCY POV.“We started talking a few days ago and I’m getting out of here soon… I only came to tell you, maybe you will be interested in coming with me…'' Quincy was whispering in a hushed tone to Pascal but he was practically ignoring her intentionally and Quincy despised it when she’s not taken seriously.“I really appreciate your thinking and thoughts … but pleasseeeeeee… for the love of the moon goddess, you both should leave me out of this and I will advise you as well, stay away from Joan… you are still alive and breathing in this prison … that woman will make life terrible for you” he said back in response to the excited joan.His response affected her mood because when she spoke next there was no smile on her lips or excitement on her face anymore, “what’s wrong with you… ?.. aren’t you smart enough to beat a woman to her game…?… well if you think Joan can screw Me…, ask my sister if you are lucky enough to get out of here” she spat back at him.Anger and pride mixed toget
QUINCY The sound of pascal arrival jerked Quincy up and she jumped up from her slumber at once, there’s nothing much to do in the prison aside from sleep and eat the cold and unsatisfactory food brought to her and do menial labour and hard work which always wears her out.She looked out from her cage door and sighted Pascal briefly before he was pushed into his cage, although she didn’t know him on a personal level she had seen him with Katherine in the meeting hall when her father came to plead on her behalf.“How could you hurt your mate like that…?….” She didn’t wait to listen to the remaining conversation, that’s all she needed to lighten up the fire of her hopes, she knew she could as well use the dangling opportunity in front of her.She waited and leaned in her eyes closer to listen to more of their conversation, they didn’t know she was listening but her prison cage is right beside pascal, “I’m sure he doesn’t know me…. Hmmm it will be very difficult to get him on my side” Qu
PASCAL“I…. I… didn’t do it …. Joan! Why will you accuse me of all these!” I spat back at her, my eyes squinting at her, I was trying to give her our special code sign to cover up for me and I will in return help her.But I guess I had become useless to her, she eyed me furiously and looked away, tapping her foot restlessly onAlpha Caspian’s expensive tiled floor.Katherine had said her own part of the story and left me in a tight corner, same with Joan. The two women were smart and I wish I could lie effortlessly in the Alpha face like Joan Isdoing right now, so I strengthened my resolve and moved closer to the Alpha.“I didn't do all of these things Alpha caspian… Joan is a pretentious liar … I…” the guard who moved swiftly behind me forced me on my kneel before I could catch my breath, cutting off the lies coming out of my mouth.“You are dead!” Joan mouthed at me, instantly I knew I’m in trouble, I shook my head at my self pitifully, I couldn’t even dare look at Alpha Caspian, he
JOAN’s POV It was so easy for joan to deny all the allegations because Grinda and Tahlia weren’t there, Grinda was busy serving her punishment of being locked inside her apartment by her husband, He didn’t whip her like Alpha Caspian did to his wife. While Tahlia is fighting for her dear life, they were exactly where she wanted them to be and if all she had to do is sacrifice one foolish lamb to save her ass, she would do it over and over again.Alpha caspian was sweating prufeously under the cold weather, two air conditioner are in his office, yet he was panting and wet all over his black shirt, he haven’t stop pacing around his magnificent office since he summoned her few minute ago, it was begining to make her eyes turn, katherine sat there on a red leather couch, her eye fixed on the ground.“I didn’t do all of these things and you know it katherine, you are just jealous that your brother wouldn’t send me away and because he loves me, aren’t you Tahlia’s friend? Joan spat at kat
KATHERINE POV“Mother….she’s not waking up, she’s not breathing … please do something” Katherine was howling at the top of her voice, hitting her head fiercely with her hands like it could revive Tahlia.Her mother was by her side at once, eyeing her suspiciously, she had been doing since they all converged in Alpha Caspians’ chamber.“Mother, don't look at me like that… I swear it wasn’t my fault . Ohooo, I should have fought hard for them, I was pushed to the corner by that witch… it’s Joan's mother” Katherine found herself spitting out to her suspicious mother.“What does that joan has to do with what’s Happening to the luna of this pack? How can she hurt the queen…what have you girls done to annoy the Alpha? Ohoooo you girls want to killl me right? and … and where is grinda? I haven’t seen her. Queen Elaine kept shooting questions to the already disoriented and muddled katherine.Katherine was visibly shivering, from the corner of her eyes she sighted Pascal in her brother's tre
ALPHA CASPIANThe seventeenth whip tore through her back and he winced internally. He had been counting to distract himself, his heart hard and unforgiving as ever but her hurt and scream were getting to him every second.“Ahaaaaaaaa… I’m so…. Sorr…. Ahaaaaaa!” she screamed loudly again as the next one hit her hard, Alpha Caspian had ordered his guards to keep hitting her until he was satisfied.Of course he wasn't satisfied with seeing other people touch his mate, let alone hurt her but his demon was out and nobody could stop him now, not even his mother.“You slut! I will teach you how to stay in your place, have been soooo lenient with you, how dare you go out at midnight to the club! Without my knowledge!!” he barked again at her, his eyes never leaving her bloody and injured body. Grinda knelt beside her friend, wailing bitterly as she held her dangling legs and comforted her, as a gift to his best friend and Beta he didn't punish Grinda himself, instead he left that to him to d
