‘’Take care of your body, for the sake of the baby,’’ he told me as he walked back to his chair and sat down.His words stung, and I wouldn’t lie if I said they didn’t bring tears to my eyes, but I held them in.Why should I care about a man who only wanted me just for his child? I knew that he woul
~Axel~The kiss was unexpected.I couldn’t care less that she had kissed me, but she quickly pulled away from it like it never happened. I was not satisfied with what had happened because I wanted more.‘’Leonara,’’ I cleared my throat as I speak up. ‘’care to excuse us for a moment.’’Leonara stood
She nodded in response and turned on the page of the paper.’’Are you even reading that?’’ I questioned out of curiosity.‘’yes, your…’’ I frowned at her, and she quickly corrected herself. ‘’I mean Axel.’’Axel Hearing her call me by my name brought back memories, and even though I didn’t like comp
‘’Your Highness!’’ she shouted, dropping the paper on the table. She didn’t bother correcting herself this time, and when she stood up, I saw the veins popping on her neck as she began to speak. ‘’I don’t know why you are doing this, but if this will work, you need to know I will work. I can’t live
~Tamara~“I don’t need any other woman since I already have you!” Axel’s words echoed in my head for the hundredth time that week. It had been a week since we met to sign the contract, a week since I’d last seen him, and yet, the only words I could remember were his assurance that there was no one e
“You’re zoning out again,” the doctor said. I forced a chuckle, pretending everything was fine. “Go home and rest,” she instructed. As I was about to respond, my phone rang from my bag.“One second,” I muttered, pulling out my phone.The number was unfamiliar; for a moment, I thought it might be a d
~Tamara~I stood frozen, my eyes locked on the familiar figure before me.Mark. My ex.I couldn't believe it. What was he doing here, and how was he here?" You," he pointed towards me. His eyes narrowed, his jaw clenched in anger, and I could sense the tension radiating from him even though we were
"I don't need your apology," Axel spat, his voice dripping with disdain. "You should be apologizing to Tamara."Mark's eyes flickered at me, and momentarily, I saw a glimmer of remorse. But I knew that he was like that because of Axel and would never apologize if that wasn’t the case.‘’And what are
I gritted my teeth, fists clenching. "I knew you planned this!" I yelled. "What do you hope to gain? How?" I lunged at him, aiming for his stomach, but he vanished into thin air.Ian’s laughter echoed as he reappeared behind me. "Be careful now, brother," he said, his tone dripping with malice. "I’v
~Axel~"Where is she?" I questioned the guard I’d assigned to stay by Tamara’s side at the workplace as soon as he reached the mansion. I had expected to see Tamara, but she was nowhere to be found, and instead, the guard had come to report to me alone."She retired to her room as soon as we arrived
~Tamara~As I walked beside Axel toward the front of the company, my heart pounded with anticipation. All eyes turned toward us as we entered my department, the buzz of conversation halting. Employees stared, their curiosity evident, and I felt a flush creep up my neck. Axel, the alpha king, strode
I raised an eyebrow. The witch was the key to bringing down my brother, and Emma had hinted a few days ago that she might be connected to her. “Go on.”Gerald leaned forward, his eyes intense. “It’s our daughter, Axel.”I frowned, confused at what he had said. “Your daughter?”“Yes, the witch,” Gera
~Axel~I walked beside Tamara as we approached the company entrance, her presence drawing the eyes of the employees around us. They stared, whispering among themselves as we walked in. Tamara remained by my side, hiding her face because she had been against that when I suggested it in the morning, b
~Tamara~Axel gently laid me on the bed, leaning in to kiss me again. “Tamara,” he said, his voice low and rough. His hands found my face, thumbs brushing my cheeks gently, and I felt my heart racing with every touch. “I meant it when I said that you were my future back in the dream. I don't know if
I closed my eyes, and just as I was about to drift off to sleep, the door opened again, and Axel Walked in, followed by a servant carrying a tray of food. The rich aroma of roast chicken and freshly baked bread filled the air, making my mouth water.“Tamara,” he said, his voice soft and gentle. “I b
~Tamara~I woke up with a start, gasping for air as if I’d just escaped from a nightmare, which was where I had come from. I looked around, saw the soft light filtering through the windows, and realized I was no longer in the dream.“Thanks, the goddess,” I rubbed a hand on my racing chest gently.
None of the alphas said anything as their heads lowered in submission. I had made my point clear. Tamara would be the Luna Queen, and I’d burn the whole council down before they disagreed.I dropped back into my chair, heaved a deep sigh, and turned to Daris.“What’s your take on these attacks?” I as
