It is not my fault I was not expecting to find my mate at the Graduation and Mating Ball. Let alone to be mated to the son of the Luna, whom my father tried to kidnap for reasons unbeknownst to me. Duke’s P.O.V. Thank goodness I made it back home before sunrise. I don’t know what I would do if I got caught in the son. I’m hoping that Alpha Lou and Luna Sophia love my cookies. Likewise, I put an extra special ingredient in there just for them alone. Especially, with one of the cookies with Alpha Lou’s name on it. Now all I have to do is sit back and wait. Hopefully, this will make it easier for me to get back to the one I truly love. I just hope that they started eating my cookies already. Tomorrow night, I will show up to see how Luna Sophia is dealing with Alpha Lou being ill. She will need someone to lean on. That someone will be me. “I must go to sleep now, and by nighttime, I will see how my fair lady is doing.” Night had finally come, and I was prepared to go see my love and
Lou’s P.O.V. I was in my office when the guard Matteo mind-linked me to let me know that the same person who dropped off the basket of cookies was there. I said okay, keep the mind link open. I want to know why he is here. Yes, Alpha, so he kept the mind link open.I heard this person asking if we had received the gift. Matteo, tells him we had received it. Oh, good, he says, I hope that they loved my cookies. We didn’t even bother with the cookies. Matteo had told him that Luna had asked him to throw the cookies away after she had read the note.“What?” “Why did she have them thrown away?” He asks. It is unclear to me why she wanted them gone after reading your note, but she did. He was standing there talking to or thinking to himself. It made me curious as to what he was thinking. However, he said goodbye quickly and went on about his way. That was strange Alpha, Matteo said. Yeah, it was, I told him. “Please let me know if he comes back around again.” “Will do Alpha, and the
Sophia’s P.O.V. I was in my room resting and reading because I wasn’t feeling well. I was reading one of my romance novels when I looked at the note again. I decided to write on the back of it in case something happened to me. Not only that, but I had no idea that things were about to get worse. One of the maids came to change the sheets. It seemed that the maid was new. Thinking to myself, when did we get a new maid? You did not inform me about hiring a new maid. Is everything to your liking, madam? Her voice was squeaky but deep. Everything is fine, I said to her. May I have your name, please? My name is Lucinda. Well, I'm pleased to meet you, Lucinda. I am Luna Sophia. It is a pleasure to meet you, Luna. I am stretching and rubbing the back of my neck. May I help you with your neck, Luna? It looks as if you’re tense. Yes, can you please just message my neck? Lucinda starts to massage me, and before I know it, there is a needle stuck in my neck full of wolf bane. I only had a cer
Who the heck kidnapped my daughter? That was that Sophia’s dad, Daniel, had asked me. How am I supposed to know who kidnapped her? All I know is that she was up in our room resting because she wasn’t feeling well. Then Eric and I decided to go and train. Before we knew it, one of the guards came to me and told me that the Luna had been kidnapped. I felt like she was stuck with a needle because I was holding my neck while feeling the pain. Whoever, took her knew what they were doing? Wait, maybe she orchestrated this kidnapping just so we could like her. Seriously, mom, you really think that? Well, look who her father is? I said that I was sorry and regretted ever trying to kidnap you, Bailee. But, I know my daughter, and she is nothing like me. She has been trying everything she can to prove to you that she is a good Luna. You know he is right, honey. If she really did orchestrate this, wouldn’t she have done it sooner? How can you say that, Cameron? Look, babe, all I am trying to
What could be of the utmost importance? My dad asked. I don’t know Dad, but Slade says we need to get to her quickly. If that is the case, and it’s time-sensitive, we must do what your wolf has asked. I am just sitting on the bed in the room that Duke has put me in. Wondering if there is any way I can escape. However, he already said that there wasn’t any unless we wanted to fall to our doom. Sonia, what are we going to do? We can’t stay here, especially knowing now that I am carrying the next heir to the pack. Don’t worry, Sophia, our mate will come and rescue us. I know he will, then I can tell him about the pup. “He will be so excited to discover that will be a father.” “Does Slade know?” Yes, he knows and he hasn’t told Lou. Why not? “I asked him to keep it a secret.” That was before we got kidnapped by your ex-vampire boyfriend. No, he needs to know right now. This might be the push he needs to rescue me quicker. Alright, I will find a way to let him know. As if I haven’t prepa
I wasn't doing good with my tricks trying to get Duke to let me go. However, he caught on to my scheme. Well, so much for that working. I know what you’re doing Sophia? It is not going to happen as long as you have your mates mark. Lou’s P.O.V.We have the piece of clothing that the guards came back with. I took one look and stuffed it. Yep, this belongs to the Luna. Slade do you have a scent? Yes, I do have the scent. Good now all we have to do is follow this scent, and should be there in no time. We need to head out at 0800 hours. Once we find the place, then we surround it. Isn’t there one other person that you need to call? Asked my dad. Dad, I have already called Alpha Zach, so he can try to get in touch with Count Dracula.I’m certain that he has, and the count will be here soon. What do you mean soon? I am already here. Where the heck did you come from? I came from Transylvania. I was vacationing there when the former Alpha called me to let me know my son had kidnapped his ex.
Well, that is too bad because she is my mate. Please let me deal with him, he is the only family that I have left. Go ahead and finish talking to your son. Duke, I know that you have kidnapped the Pure-Blood Alpha’s mate. She doesn’t belong with you. How do you know that I have her? Son, they called me to try to talk you into giving her up. She also left a note on the back of the letter you sent her when you sent her the cookies. She wasn’t supposed to throw the cookies away, they were her favorite. Maybe she sensed something wrong with them, plus whatever you said in the note tipped her off. She is supposed to be with me, I want her as my chosen mate. You can’t have her, she is already mated. I was supposed to find my mate that night too, but I never found mine. Duke, you will find your mate. It just takes time, that is all. No one will take her away from me this time. Son, she is not yours to keep. Oh, I am not going to keep her, she will be my wife. That is going to happen ove
Stephanie’s P.O.V. When we got to the place to rescue my cousin’s mate. It smelled of dark chocolate and cookies. That is when I knew right then and there that the person who took our Luna was my mate. I had been looking for my mate since the Graduation and mating party. Now here we are, and we have to fight him just to get our Luna back. Of course, I could tell that Duke wasn’t that I was his mate. He was too busy convincing our Luna to be his chosen mate, that he didn’t even notice me. I was hoping that he would be able to tell that I was his mate. Then I remembered he probably couldn’t smell me if he was busy with Sophia. My mind was in a blur because even though he was my mate. We had to fight him just to get cousin’s mate back. I was too scared to tell my cousins and my brother that Duke was my mate. I knew that they would not approve of him being my mate, So, I just remained silent at this time. Then we had to fight the men that he sent after us. We did beat every last one o
Duke’s P.O.V. I couldn’t believe my eyes when I looked up while holding my ex Sophia hostage. My mate was here, she smelled of Blackberries and Lilac roses. That scent was intoxicating, but I was so busy with her cousin that I didn’t even recognize the sign of her being my mate. That wasn’t until Alpha Lou said that he would not hurt me if I let his mate go. Even though I had a strong feeling that he wouldn’t keep his word. However, I let Sophia go anyway as she ran into his arms. Are you okay? He asks her. I’m fine now that I am back in your arms again. Alright, stay here for a moment, then the alpha begins to shift. That is when I knew that he was going to attack me. I waited for him to at least come and one of my limbs. It never happened though because when I opened my eyes while preparing for the worst. His cousin Stephanie jumped right in front of me. I have never been so grateful in my life, for a mate who is risking her life to be with me. She was defying the Alpha of her p
