Sebastian “SOMEBODY HELP! HE’S DEAD!” He didn’t recognize the voice, but his heart thudded violently against his chest at the shrilling panic that was coming from the kitchen on the floor below. He hadn’t been near the kitchen all night so whoever was dead, he knew it had nothing to do with him. He’s been with Hannah anyways; it wasn’t possible. He left Hannah alone in the bathroom; he wasn’t sure if she could hear the screaming from where she was, but he worried that she would think it was him as well. He ran down the stairs where a few servants were gathering around the kitchen. The head chef looked pale, and he was stumbling away with his body trembling. He made eye contact with a few of the maids, and they also paled at the sight of the violent wolf king on the night of the full moon. He could feel his madness returning to him slightly, but not enough for him to lose sight of what was happening. Hannah’s scent and saliva still invaded him enough to keep him semi-calm. There wa
Sebastian’s POV What Sebastian heard wasn’t surprising to him, but it still infuriated him just the same. He left the bathroom without making himself known to the gossiping maids. He clenched his fists to his sides, trying not to punch a hole in the wall that he so desperately wanted to do. A low growl made its way up his throat as he stormed down the stairs. The rest of the servants had disappeared for the rest of the night after the commotion in the kitchen. But he knew his stepmother would be nearby, probably watching his every move and waiting for him to fuck up again. But he wasn’t going to give her what she wanted. “I’m going to tear her apart,” Eric hissed as they stormed through the main foyer of the palace. Sebastian didn’t bother calming him down this time because he also wanted to tear her apart. He knew that she has been trying to pin the blame for the deaths of the servants on him, but hearing the maids confirm his thoughts was enough for him to lose control. He could
Hannah’s POV I woke up the next morning and Sebastian was gone. I knew he had some important meetings to take care of for most of the day, but there was so much I wanted to say to him. I wanted so badly to ask him about the scars on his face, or the lack of scars I should say. I wasn’t expecting to be able to see his face and I certainly wasn’t expecting his face to be as handsome as it was. It wasn’t making any sense; where did these rumors about the wolf king being hideously disfigured come from? Nora was intoxicated by not only his scent but by his appearance as well. I remembered a while back that Sebastian requested to mark me as his chosen mate after the full moon. I was made to believe he wanted to wait because he feared that I wouldn’t survive this full moon. But now that it was the day after the full moon, I couldn’t help but wonder when he planned on marking me. I think the moment we saw his face for the first time and Nora went straight into heat, was the moment she was a
Hannah’s POV I stood quickly as shards of glass broke through the window and scattered across the ground. A figure climbed his way through the window. He was a large man that wore a dark trench coat that covered most of his face. He was a large-built man that towered over me; I could smell the liquor radiating off his body almost right away and the stench of him made me nearly gag. My heartbeat against my chest violently and my body trembled uncontrollably as I took a step away from him. He stood near the window for a long while, staring at me even though I couldn’t see his face. “He has a dangerous aura,” Nora breathed fiercely. “I don’t recognize him.” She didn’t need to tell me that in order or me to know that he was a dangerous man. I could feel it. There was something off about him and worry started to build up inside of me. “Who are you?” I demanded to know. Without saying anything, he removed his hood. I didn’t recognize him at all, but his eyes were so dark they were prac
Hannah’s POV Every ounce of my body was screaming; I wanted to cry. I thought back to the previous night when that stranger’s disgusting hands were all over me. The way he smelled lingered in my nose for the rest of the night. The ghost of his fingers pressed against me stained my skin. I took a long shower after Sebastian had saved me; regardless of how hard I scrubbed, I never felt clean enough. I felt damaged and gross all over. Sebastian looked so angry as he tore through that man’s skin. The rancid scent of that man’s blood and guts soaking into the floorboards remained in the living quarters. A small knock sounded on the door, and I lifted my head off the pillow to see who it was. Caroline stood at the door, and she stared at me with concern lingering in her eyes. “Alpha King wanted me to bring you to the wardrobe room, your majesty,” Caroline said. I rose my eyebrows. “Wardrobe room?” I asked her. I wasn’t sure if I’d been in that room yet. I stared down at my pajamas
Hannah’s POV Everybody knew about the story of Sebastian and Emily. I wasn’t sure if she was before or after Sebastian’s late luna though. But I knew that Emily and Sebastian grew up together and later in life they fell in love. However, she left him for an unknown reason, never to be heard from again. Until now. This would have been easier if she was hard to look at, but as she stood before us, I couldn’t help but find her stunning. She had thick and curly blonde hair that went down her back, ending at her waistline. Her eyes were bright green like emeralds with long and dark lashes. She had rosy cheeks which matched the rosy tint of the tip of her nose and complimenting her cherry lips. “It’s been a really long time,” she said; she didn’t even look at me, it was like I wasn’t even there. He said nothing to her; he just stared at her like he was seeing a ghost. I’m sure it must have been weird seeing her again after all these years. I watched as Emily wrapped her arms around Se
Hannah’s POV I thought that would be my last encounter with Sebastian’s ex-girlfriend, Emily. She kept giving me side eyes for the rest of the night. I was thankful that Sebastian didn’t go back over there to speak with her. The look on Sabastian’s face was something I have never seen before. It was like he had seen a ghost. I couldn’t explain the rage I was feeling but Nora wanted to rip that woman’s throat out. The way she looked at him and touched him; the way she pressed her body against his and kissed his face. She kissed the area of skin that was revealed through his mask, and I clenched my fists as I watched their interaction. The worst of it was that he didn’t pull away from her or say anything. He let her do it. He didn’t mention her for the rest of the night, and I didn’t bring her up. I just let my rage simmer for a moment longer before deciding to let it go. The next morning, Sebastian seemed back to his normal self. He didn’t seem out
Hannah’s POV “I don’t understand why you need to be at the hospital with her,” I said, trying not to sound annoyed as Sebastian was leaving for the day. “I can’t let her go through something like this alone,” Sebastian said, keeping his tone even and his eyes away from me. I couldn’t help but feel like there was something he wasn’t telling me; a knot was forming in my throat, and I swallowed it down into my stomach. “Are you forgetting the statement she made about me to the media?” I asked, folding my arms across my chest. He turned to finally look at me; his eyes revealing something I didn’t understand. “The media twists words around. She didn’t mean it the way it sounded,” he told me, trying to keep his tone calm. “She still said it…” I muttered. “Hannah…” he warned. I stopped speaking immediately, worried that if I said anything more it would set him off. He eventually sighed and met my eyes. “There’s a
Hannah I woke up in the hospital. I opened my eyes, adjusting them to the dimmed lighting and seeing Sebastian sitting by my side. He jumped to his feet as soon as I opened my eyes. I thought I would have been in a world of pain, but everything just felt numb.“Try not to move too much,” he says as he fixes my pillow. He grabs a glass of water on my bedside and brings it to my lips. The cold water feels good going down my throat and I smile at him in gratitude. “How are you feeling?”“I’m okay,” I said to him in a hoarse tone. “How’s Wrenley?”His face lights up at the mention of our daughter and I know that means good news.“She’s perfect,” he breathes. “See for yourself.”He goes across the room to a small bassinet and picks up the cooing baby. She’s wrapped in a pink blanket. She’s so small and as he brings her closer. S
HannahAt first, I wanted to deny that my water had just broken in the middle of Raya’s wedding. I really thought I just peed myself. Wren has been sitting on top of my bladder the entire time and I felt the urge to pee for the longest time. But then, the pain hit me suddenly and I nearly fell to the ground.It felt like cramps, but ten times worse. I screamed out as I held onto my stomach. There was no denying it now; I was going into labor.“Someone, call an ambulance!” I heard Dr. Davis say as he jumped to his feet.I felt Nancy’s hands around my arms as she pulls me towards a clearing in the chapel.“I need some room!” She shouts to those who are surrounding us.Everyone scatters to give her some room. Sebastian was quick to be by my side. He was saying something that I couldn’t quite understand. The pain was too much for me and all I could think about at that moment was needing
Hannah 5 months later.I stare at myself in the mirror, and I don’t like what I’m seeing. I’m so round; I wobble like a penguin. My entire back is sore, and my legs hardly hold up my weight. My hair has gone completely flat and lifeless, my complexion is too fair, and I don’t look decent unless I wear a bunch of makeup.I’m wearing a loose-fitting light pink dress with a pair of flats that look like ballet slippers because that’s the only thing that’ll fit my swollen feet.“I’m so fat…” I whine as tears fill my eyes. My hormones were getting the best of me; I don’t remember feeling like this the first time I was pregnant.“You’re not fat,” Sebastian says from behind me, wrapping his arms around me and peering at me through the mirror as well. “You’re pregnant and you’re beautiful.”“I look like an ogre,&r
HannahIt only took me a couple of hours to finish baking the cookies. The kitchen staff seemed utterly surprised that I knew my way around the kitchen. If they thought I was good at making cookies, I couldn’t wait to show them what else I could do.As the luna queen, I promised myself that I would be helping the servants with their daily duties, including meals. I used to cook a lot when I lived in my father’s pack, so I knew how to create a decent meal. As an omega, I’ve always been pretty skilled at baking as well.I gave each of the kitchen servants, including the head chef, a cookie so they can see how they came out.“These are incredible, Luna Queen!” The head chef gasped.I can’t help but smile at their praises as I bundled the rest up on a platter and covered the top of it.“I hope she likes it,” another servant says with a mouthful of cookies. “If not, bring them
Hannah“My mate…” Scott says as he steps further into the palace and toward Caroline. I could hear Caroline’s heart beating so fast that I thought it was going to jump out of her chest. She couldn’t take her eyes away from Scott.Sebastian and I exchanged questioning looks. In the underworld, I had no idea that they were mates. But maybe it was because they couldn’t recognize each other due to Xander’s control. He must have had more control over them than they thought. But that would explain why they became such great friends and why Scott cared about her so deeply while she was in the underworld. Even when he still stayed at the palace and worked for Xander, he seemed to still care for Caroline.Now that I think of it, I’m not sure when or how Scott even ended up in the underworld. But it must have been around this time. Caroline and Scott must have gotten there around the same time for him to be
Sebastian Sebastian slowly stood from his desk; he knew this was going to happen based on their history. But the joy he was feeling in his heart was almost too much for him to handle. He had a large smile that spread across his lips at her announcement. She had a faint smile and tears in her eyes as she pressed the palms of her hands to her stomach. This was the first time she’s ever announced something like this.He ran around his desk and toward her. Scooping her into his arms, he twirled her around. She laughed as she wrapped her arms around his neck. She kissed him deeply and he can feel her heart beating rapidly in her chest.He can feel just how happy she is, and he was happy too. They were having a baby. They were finally going to meet their little Wrenley.…Hannah2 months later.A couple of months after I discovered I was pregnant; I was finally showing a baby bump. I haven’t been able to shift into my wolf form because pregnant wolves can’t shift, which makes us weaker tha
HannahSebastian kissed down my naked body as we entangled ourselves in the bed. The rose petals stuck to my sweating skin and tickled the bareness of my back. I breathed in the amazing scent of my mate, feeling completely content and at peace. His fingers traced down the sides of my body and I can’t help but smile as his lips found mine.I loved this man so much and I wanted to show him just how much he meant to me. I deepened the kiss, wrapping my legs firmly around his broad waist, bringing his manhood further inside of me. feeling his length and girth filling me, I gasped at the incredible sensation. It was something I was never going to get used to. The way he makes me feel is surreal. Even more that I know he is my fated mate. Everything about him is just so incredible.I can feel my wolf running laps through my mind’s eyes; she’s eager to be near him and to be touched by him. This is all she’s been wanting for a very long time. He bit onto my bottom lip and drew it into his mou
Sebastian “You are under arrest for the attempted murder of my maid,” Sebastian growled to Magnolia. Magnolia looked furious and fought against the warriors that held her captive. They were placing cuffs around her wrists to keep her powers under control. Her icy blue eyes peered at Sebastian, and she looked as if she wanted to spit in his face.“You are going to resent this day,” she hissed to him. “I promise you; this palace and your crown will be mine.”Sebastian said nothing to her as he watched the gammas take her out of the palace. She was going to be locked away for a very long time if Sebastian had anything to say about it. He shook his head in dismay as he overheard Hannah comforting a very frightened Caroline.Caroline was still on the ground and Hannah had her arms wrapped around her tightly. Both of them seemed to be trembling. After everything that has happened these last few weeks, he knew Hannah has been holding a lot in, and now was the time to relax and allow her fee
Hannah“She could have been under Xander’s control. Now that Xander has no power, neither does Magnolia,” Sebastian tried to tell me, but I was already ripping the IVs out of my arm. “Easy Hannah. You could puncture a vein.”“I’m not taking any chances,” I said in return. “I can’t lose her again, Sebastian.”For a moment, he looked like he wanted to protest against me, but with one look at my stern face, he knew it was better that he didn’t. He sighed and grabbed onto my arms, stopping me from pulling out any more of the IVs.“Let me do it,” he said as he cautiously pulled the IVs out of my arm.He grabbed some bandages that were left on the nightstand and wrapped my arms with the soft cloth, keeping my bleeding at bay.“We still have some time before anything happens at the palace; we need to be smart about this,” Sebastian says as he finishes tying the bandages around my arms. “I won’t be able to do anything unless we catch Magnolia in the act. I can’t just have her arrested based o
