CAROLINE ESTER'S POV
Addi stretches her hands holding a plastic bag. I took a peak of it, only to see 10 pregnancy tests inside.Instantly she shrugged.The possibility of me being pregnant does not only stresses me but stresses my best friend as well.This is many. That is what I am thinking right now but I just gave Addi an awkward smile. I knew that this lady is somehow mad at me for what I have impulsively done.She shook the plastic. "That won't go to you by itself," she said, grabbing my hand and putting the plastic bag in my hand.I pouted my lips and took a glance at her and then at the plastic bag I am carrying. She gave me raising brows and widened eyes. "Should I come with you to the bathroom?" I shook my head."Are you mad at me?" I mumbled."I would not say no so, of course! you went to some party then let an unknown man potentially impregnate you. I know this is a desperate time but that is not the best solution." she said, giving me a good mass of counseling."I do not want to be a mistress." I reasoned out."So you decided to become a mom?. A potential mom." I can hear the mockery in every word she says.I stayed and stood there silently, sniffing the air of her truth. I took a tight grip on the plastic bag and left Addi on the sofa, with her arms crossed and her legs on top of her knees.•••The bathroom has a mirror in front of the place where I wash my face with our faucet. I wet my hands with water and wash my face.I put the plastic bag on the side then after washing my face, I took three pregnancy tests. I went to the toilet and took all three of them.I brought them outside.Addi stood up, and frantically run to me. "What is it? What is the result?"I shook. "I do not know yet. I have not looked at it. I took three of the ten you brought. I wanted to see the result with you."Her worried look is really something. I hope that it turns out to be like what we expect it.I close my eyes and slowly slide my hand down for us to see what the result is."Thanks God!" She blurted in relief.That sounds like a positive reaction so I slowly open my eyes."You are not pregnant." She rolled her eyes at me and tug me for a hug.I had a pale smile. Why does this news did not brought me that maximum joy?......I am glad that it turned out that way." I said then chuckled nervously.She detaches herself from me. "Shall we go to the castle and see your love, Lexus?" Addi pokes me on my hips."I thought you do not fancy him anymore?. You almost cursed his whole generation the last time you mentioned him.""Well, he sounded like a jerk in your story so I will literally hate him to the core. How dare he do that?. He promised me that he will never hurt your feelings."I giggled, remembering that day when Lexus ask for my friend's blessing when we were dating.However, I still have something to worry about.It does not take long for Addi to notice about my sudden drop in energy."What is it this time?"I began rubbing my palm against each other, she looked at me and drag me to the sofa.Doing that means that I am nervous."I do not think that I will be a good match for Lexus. You know it, right?. I have no wolf at all. I am as normal as a human from the human realm. I think that maybe is the reason why he wanted to make me his concubine instead."Addi placed her hands on my shoulder and then shook me. "I think you need some wake-up shake." After shaking me, she stood up and knock on my head."Ouch! What was that for?" I raised a question while rubbing my head that she knock like it is a door."Just checking if you still have your brain inside of your head."If I do not know her, I would have been offended but this is Addi. She chats like that- unfiltered."That is so cruel!" I exclaimed."I am here to remind you that you have no she-wolf YET. Maybe I should write that down on paper, open your head and put that paper inside so you can have a full grasp of that data."I grimaced watching her say those cruel plans with a straight face."I just told you that he asked me to assist him in making a plan of marrying you."With that said, my face heated like a microwaved left open. My heart began to race and pop out of my chest."And now, you are blushing? tsk. You are a weird human being." She placed her hands on my hair and rummaged through it.•••Addi still adviced me to tell Lexus about my one-night stand.I asked her to go with me.Addi and I hurriedly went to the Kingdom.I thought a big surprise for me awaits there, well technically it was a surprise. However, it was not a surprise Addi and I are expecting.There was people gathering. They are wearing formal clothing. I look around and then began to look at each other, giving me the stares that I can perfectly recognize- the stare of prejudice.Today is his wedding.I thought---it was with me.But seeing him beside a woman who is in her wedding dress made me realized that it is not with me.Addi grab my hand and brought me to her place. She gave me a cup of tea. "I am sorry, Caroline. That bastard!" Her voice resounds anger. Then she gave a quick glance at my tummy.She slap her forehead with her palm. "Now, I wish that test just came out to be positive. "The whole time that Addi was worried about me, I stayed silent.That hurts.I thought, because I already experienced a lot then this won't hurt me a lot. But, I was wrong.This is almost tantamount to the pain I felt for the past few years of existing.At that same day, during the night. Lexus appeared right in front of my manor."What do you want?. I get it now, congratulations on your wedding.""Well, thank you for your kind consideration but I am not here to see your insincere wish to my marriage. I am here to ask about your answer to my offer.""Still a no."After I said that, the mood shifted heavy. "Ow, really? My she-wolf ex is rejecting his beloved. I will slide this one because I know that you are still hearbroken from the fact that I married another woman.""I found out a better man. You can be with her for all I care and guess what.......I will get another Alpha impregnate me."KNIGHT ARCHANGEL'S POV."Ahhh, fuck baby! You're so tight! Ohhh I love that." she screams while I hear the pounding sound of him into her. "Ohhh! I will make you scream hard tonight, darling. Ahh!" He screamed after giving a hard pound. I can hear Tyler's voice while having my own time in my room. This single life is good not until you got a bestfriend who brings different girls almost every night. I am kinda used hearing sexual noise coming from his bedroom almost every single time I spent my time here but this one is louder that all the other girls he had bed with. I put my hands on my ears to eradicate the volume of noise that Tyler and his side chick are making on the other side of this room, then releases a heavy sigh. "Ahhhhh!!HmmmMmm. Baby! Deeper! Harderrr!", The dirty noise from the other bedroom made me role my eyes in annoyance. Tyler bought this room for us with two bedrooms, one is his and one is mine. This has become my other place to stay ever since he brought me
CAROLINE ESTER'S POV"I said no. Is that too hard to understand?" I look at the man, sternly standing in front of me.Lexus. "I do not take no for an answer. You said you love me! So why can't you accept the fact that I am with someone else but at the same time I still want you." I stopped for a while, stare at him with disgust running all over my face.This man is married already but he has the audacity to keep on knocking on my door, only to ask me is I wanted to take his offer as a mistress. However, he is standing proud as if he has no other responsibilities. "I am giving you a lifetime oppurtunity here. This is way better than staying as a wolf less woman wandering around. Caroline, be my mistress. Stay with me." he said while his hand were calmly hidden inside his pant's pocket. "You better take it because my patience is running off." Then he suddenly snarled. Such a mercurial specie. "What do you take me for, Lexus? A lifetime oppurtunity, you say? No thanks. I told you, I
Knight Archangel's POV"It's you....Diana. "She pouted right after I call her name. I glower, watching her reaction—it is sickening. "How I wish you will call me again using our call sign. Honey it has been a while. I miss you" she said as she gaze down and clasp her hands and played on it. "That will not happen, Diana. So you must tell your errand here or else I will need to send you back to where you came from." I icyly responded. Despite trying hard to be inscrutable, my inside is giving me so much emotion that might be too obvious.Her sardonic smile tells me so. My heart is in current dilemma. In contemplation, whether to feel excited seeing her again or to feel the hatred of seeing her again, with the same smile she wore when she left me. My jaw slacked as I eyed her, from her toes to her face. I began to wonder.What is she even doing here?. We have nothing to discuss about. All actions in the past were more than enough to conclude we are done."I hope your appearance has
CAROLINE ESTER'S POV"What do you mean!!? Seriously? He ordered that?" I screamed at the on duty guard. He gave me a look—a helpless one, "I am sorry madam, I am just strictly following the rules given to me.". After hearing him, I felt a little conscience sparking inside my body but I am pissed off as well. I am getting frustrated. I need to go to Knight, I need him to save me from Lexus, but if I can't even go outside this kingdom...my chances are low. "Can I go, just this once? I badly needed to cross over this kingdom." The guard shook his head and bow down. "I am sorry but I cannot let that happen. An order is an order and I cannot do anything about it." He said, looking at me hopelessly.Our kingdom was sealed with walls, this is to protect our subjects and territories from potential intruders. The body guards here are trained as warriors and we can only go outside if we passed them. This whole place is protected by high walls that exclude us from the other kingdoms outside.I
KNIGHT ARCHANGEL'S POVAfter Tyler left. I took my phone out. Contemplating whether to call her or not. I open it, went to the phone call and typed her number. It has been months and I still remember every digit of her number. I actually deleted all her contacts in my phone right after that day that she threw our relationship away. Blame it on my memory because the contacts were embedded on my mind. I stared at the numbers. "I don't think this is still her numbers. Months have passed already."Despite being hesitant, I tap the call button...and to my surprise, it is ringing. So she did not changed her number. I put my phone on my ears. "Hello?" A voice answered.The most familiar voice I knew. It is her voice and I am hundred percent certain. I look at my phone's screen. 'I should be hating you.' This is what my mind is telling me but my heart says otherwise. 'despite all the things you have done to me...only your voice can tame the hatred in my heart'."Hello. Who is this?" I
CAROLINE ESTER'S POVI just woke up with the weirdest news and one of the most rarest news I could ever received. "What do you mean that there are lots of men asking for me?" I asked my personal maid again.I woke up with this news and this is an anomaly. To hear that men are looking for me. I never really had visitors nor suitors at all. All my life, I only knew Lexus as the man in my life. "Tell them that I will be there in a minute. I will just take a short bath and prepare myself. I do not know why they are here so make them entertained for some minutes." I ordered at the maid who gave me the news. The maid left and I went to my wardrobe to look for something to wear. I have short time preparation so I just took a reefer out. It was a black reefer with a pashmina scarf as partner and a pair of high heels. I went to the human size mirror and put the reefer in front of me, visualizing how I will look in it later on. Satisfied with my outfit, I placed it carefully along the oth
CAROLINE ESTER'S POV"I have a scent?"She holds my hand and excitedly jumped. "Oh my God! Yes and I am sure of it." She keeps pointing at me. "You are finally not a wolfless werewolf. Oh my God this feels like your reborn. I knew that you wuld have one someday. It just needs trigger.Addi is a complete werewolf, only means that she can smell who has a scent and who has not. I am beginning to think that this is what Aunt Therese said a while ago. when she said she might have know. I quickly gather my fits and wear a pajama and a top. "I have something to tell. Earlier. I just woke up with a weird scenery. You know something that never happened to me in the past years of my existence." I said in a tight tone. I am actually afraid that I am getting played. I am now afraid to trust things after what I have went through Lexus. Addi just laughed. "Oh you mean your suitors? I knew that. It is already all over the kingdom and you won't actually believe the comments I have heard. Want to
KNIGHT ARCHANGEL'S POVEveryone is busy. The place is being set up for the event upcoming this week. The palace is gigantic, that is why we needed to set up day and night to have a good setting gor the event. I do not actually care whether they find their mates or not as long as I find mine. I was wondering if she will come. If she will show herself since she left me unannounced the last time. I abhor women but Caroline is different, when I was with her that day it feels like I am finally home. My dick even felt so much comfortable inside her. I tap my forehead, thinking about listful things as early as 7: 38 am. "Is everything ready? How about the basement, the hallways? Do not forget about the rooms, okay?" I reminded Rex, one of the event coordinator and designer as well. "I wanted everything to be perfect. That is your only job so do your job well." Rex hugged her PC tight, he nodded. "We will do our best to make this event one of the most amazing event this realm will ever ha
CAROLINE ESTER'S POVI thought life was over for me. "He took him." Hanna was crying on the floor. Those were the line that made me lose interest in escaping. "Lexus took Roi. I already created a plan to help you escape but he used the child to stop me from doing so." It felt like my only chance of escape crumpled. I took her hands and pressed it nervously. "I do not care about escaping. I just want you to make sure that my son is safe. Who knows what he can do."Lexus knew what he was doing that day. He even gave me an offer— a conditional one. I asked Hanna to go back and find my son.Why would I escape if my son is being held by him."You are free now. I am letting you go but once you step out of that cell, everything that you will left here, you can't take back." The sly smile on his face screams torment. "Do not do this to me. He is just a child.He deserves to be free from danger."I grab his feet. Without any force or sign of attempt to escape. I put my palms against each
KNIGHT ARCHANGEL'S POV"What in the world is happening???!" I watch as the guards pin down Lexus. "What is this? Let go of me! I command!" He shouted. Dad stared at me. "I guess it's time that you knew the truth before that..." He motioned the guards to take him out. I had to take another seat when he walk towards me. Something felt wrong. "What is it?" "It is about Caroline." I nervously glance to him when he mentioned her name. I immediately raise my voice when he remained silent. "What the fuck? What was that and why are you mentioning her?" ..."I knew where she is." My eyes widened. "Y-You knew? Since when?" My head are spinning with thoughts as I wait for his lips to move and spit out words. He took a heavy sigh. "I cannot see you suffer more. Hear me out first. I thought that it would be a great way to keep you off her but I was wrong."For the first time, in front of him, I cried. Tears were streaming down my face and I can easily identify its reason. Betrayal. "I gav
KNIGHT ARCHANGEL 'S POV. "We have decided to consider potential alpha king aside from the Alpha Prince. We are always free to pick the best among the kingdoms and put him into trial to prove his worth." One of the council representatives spoken as he reads the roll paper that has the decision of the council as a whole. "I told you this would happen." My dad whispers, his face is cannot be painted. He listens attentively to the councils. I let a breath put of my lungs while my brows furrowed. "They can't do it that easily."The councils gathered today, upon hearing how the longing had weakened me.How come that this is my problem now?. Of only they gave her sudden disappearance some attention then maybe she would've not gone for this long. "We all knew that this is possible. An Alpha without his mate will suffer dismay, depression and temporary weakness." I stated. We sat on a long table with me on the end and my father on my side. The councils were distributed on the side seats."
LEXUS ARENDELLE'S POVI tap the long bar on my keyboard, the video froze into an image. "You sly bitch. I knew you would betray me anytime soon. Who are you calling to?" I zoom the photos of Hanna, tearing and talking to Caroline.I rotate my working chair to the side of my bed while a wine of glass is in between my fingers. I place the glass near my lips, shake it a little before slurping all its bitterness. I wipe off the excess. I put a CCTV on Caroline's room because I am aware of Hanna's fragility. I knew she would end up siding on her so called friend anytime soon. I managed to get her on my side. I put Diana in a good facility before the Issue of her and Hanna gets public and that is also another reason why Hanna follows me. My fist turned into ball. My jaw clenches alongside my tight grip over the wine class, which eventually broke into my hand. Now, I need to handle them one by one. "How can you disappoint me like this, Hanna. Your life would have been better if you st
KNIGHT ARCHANGEL'S POVI felt lost.I feel like my world is crumbling on me. This is too heavy and I was never prepared for this. This is the type of pain that I cannot ease by just pretending that I am fine— I am not and I cannot be...not now—specifically not now.No matter how hard I try to locate her, to find her scent and to see her again— nothing worked. My life is literally on the edge with all the precrowning responsibilities, her disappearance and the idea of not being with her. •••••"What's the outside ruckus all about? Are they protesting again?" Addi spoke as she enters my office. She is carrying a red suitcase with her which she drops on the side chair on her way. Tyler kicks the bottles on the floor onto the side, compiling them with the others. "They are mad mad, bro. What the hell are you doing with your life?" Tyler looks around. I haven't clean my office yet and his eyes were screaming disgust as he roams his gaze, and he is so bad hiding it. I throw my hand in
CAROLINE ESTER'S POV. It felt like an asylum already. Everyday is the same as yesterday. These endless corridor and lonely room are enough to make my mind in chaos. My feet are getting numb and pale from the constant attempts of escape I had. It hurts to stand with it as much as it pains me internally to realize that I cannot stand on my own in the situation I am in. My life goes on and on with the same room and same setting. Everything sucks but I am keeping myself alive because I believe that someday I will break through this. Hanna visits me regularly. Despite being grateful for her doing my son good, I can't help but to wonder...Why can't she do anything about helping me escape?It has been years and she could have thought of something. ......I took a sigh, as I stare at her in disbelief. Hanna came here so often and tells me everything about outside and most of the time vents out. I find it so confusing how she still treats me as a friend but at the same time can keep up w
HANNA ERICA CAVIAR'S POV"Lex Roi. He is growing up looking like his father's image. Sooner or Later, things will be revealed. I guess it will be safer to come clean now." I sat on the bed, my heart was pounding hard as I release every words. Lexus won't like the idea. "Come clean? Huh?" He scoff, snarling at me for opening up the topic. Like how I expect he would react. He firmly pointed his finger at me as his eyes glares at me. He kept on walking back and forth, brushing his fingers through his hair and slapping his forehead with his palm. "I already receive a bad news. I do not need another problem from you. The King Alpha. He wants to have Caroline back." He gave out a sardonic scoff. "Like how dare he? We had an agreement. We are doing okay so what is his point.?. He can just have the child, as easy as how he gave him up." ....staring at him, almost with a blank expression. I can't help but to think about a particular question that I contemplated to ask. "Why did you do
KADE ARCHANGEL'S POV" Your son.......he was not doing his job and still not doing it right. After the disappearance of his Luna. He became too focus on finding her. This is a huge problem." I nodded, awkwardly rolling my tongue inside my mouth and biting it.The council had their gazes focused on me. I can feel the intensified glare some of them has on me. "The event he organized two years ago also went downhill. The amount of complaints about the event is becoming overwhelming. Alpha King, you know how much we respect you but this has to stop." My faces flushed red, hearing these. "I know that. I will talk with my son about this and will make sure that he will make his tasks done. By hook or by crook. " I motioned my secretary to come forward. "Schedule me a meeting woth Knight. Scoot it as soon as possible." He nodded and then bows his head down. "Don't you think, we need someone who has a heart for it?. I think it is time to reconsider applying the second way of choosing the ne
CAROLINE ESTER'S POV."Today is his birthday." I walk back and forth with the sound of the chain on my feet, rubbing against the floor. I kept glancing at the outside of my cell. Thumping my feet in anxious of waiting for them to arrive. The hour felt like moving in snail as I remain doing the same thing for minutes now— walking back and forth, with my hands clasping against each other. I run towards the cell and hold the bar frustratedly while my gaze are on the empty hallway. "LEXUSS!!! HANNNAA! GETTT ME OUT OF HEREE!!!" My voice echoed in the hallways, hopelessly, I swiftly bent my knees and hug myself. Almost 3 years and I am losing hope of ever getting freedom here. I only have one reason for fighting...."Mom." "Babyyy!!!" I stood, with my hands on the bar as the kid I bring into this world 2 years ago greeted me with a wide smile on his face. Hanna let go of his tiny hand and allowed him to run to me. "Uhm.Roi, Baby, wait for mom." She said, signaling my son to wait, ro
