Kade Archangel's POVI was working on my table, compiling files when an envelope caught my attention. I haven't noticed that one when I was working earlier. I took the envelope and read its content. "Visitation Letter from Future Ruler of Starry Curse Pack."I open the envelope and saw that it was a letter asking for permission to have visitation on our Kingdom. Normally, I would approve right away especially if it is an official or a high rank werewolf from another kingdom but knowing that it is not just any kingdom— starry cursed pack and not just any man but Lexus Arendelle. I hesitated for some seconds. I smell something fishy about this. I took the pen on my pencil holder and looked for the area that needed my signature. Without reading much of the content, I signed. I know that whatever Lexus wants to talk about, it won't be pure business. There is so much to talk about, Lexus. I gestured one of the servant to walk in front. I gave him the letter I just approved. "Delive
CAROLINE ESTER'S POV"You should go home now, dad." I detached from our hug and requested for him to go home. He chuckled. "Is this a command from my daughter or from the Luna?"I gently hit his shoulder. "Don't be silly dad. It is an order from your beloved daughter. Stop making me worry. I will go with you. Please go home now." "Okay, fine. fine. I will go back. By the way, the place...sicne it got settled already, once you feel like you wanted to go back. Please go back. That is yours. Also, Did you and Addi talked already?" When he mentioned addi, I looked down and shook my head. "Not yet. I will make time in the future."I gaze at Robert who is tearing up with us. That view puts a smile on my face. I sort of laugh seeing him cry. He looks tough and this is my first time seeing him cry. "Robert, how many remaining minutes do we have 'till next duty?" I asked. "Less than 25 minutes. I think we should hurry back. The car will be waiting for us and we need to immediately go to th
CAROLINE ESTER'S POVAddi and I already settled our problems and at this point, I do not want to lose anyone else. It has been weeks and that is how fast time began to move. "Hello. How things are going there? Are you guys okay right now?" I am currently talking to Hanna. Hanna and I kept in touch because we knew the truth and the issue did not bother us. Right now, it is not advisable to visit her place because of the place itself but our connection was not cut after that issue. "I am okay, probably hanging by the thread. I think I will turn nuts here." She said. I cna hear laughing on her line. I actually wanted to ask if the issue about her was true but hearing the way she sounds, I just knew this is not the right time for that. I cam probably just wait until she confess to me. "Do you remember when I told you that our marriage is not that serious?" She suddenly asks. "Yes. Why? Is there any problem there?" I asked, worriedly. "Not really. It was just that his father is as
THIRD PERSON'S POINT OF VIEWWhen things seems to be going great, that is the exact same time where things will go downhill. The conversation that Caroline had with the King Alpha never left her mind. It became a nightmare that her own dad did that. "Dad?" Caroline escaped and went to their house without any bodyguard. She was crying, convincing herself that her father is nothing like how the King Alpha told her. Arthuro, not knowing what happened immediately hugged her daughter when she step into their front door, crying. "T-Tell me dad. You are not like that." Arthuro wiped off the tears from his daughter's face. "Tell me!" Caroline pushed her dad and the sister happened to saw that and pushed her too. "This is what I am telling you! Look at her right now. Such a disrespectful child!" Therese was eyeing her niece bad. She went to accompany her brother in standing back on his foot. Arthuro shove her aside and look at his daughter, wandering why she is acting like this. "Ca
LEXUS ARENDELLE'S POV"WHAT THE FUCK??" I grabbed the headline and threw it at her. I didn't really believed that my pretend wife was gay, not until I saw the latest issue about her. I let the first one slide because it was a rumor but she kept on feeding more to the flame. Now, this will surely cause a fire. "So this was your business that time? How can you be this stupid? You are married, Hanna. Married!. How can you boldly kiss someone in public?" I hissed after scolding her, she remains stiff. "I did not know there were cameras around. I thought that this kingdom has a curfew." She reasoned out. I slammed the table with my bare hands at her lame excuse. "That is bullshit! The worst one I have ever heard so far!" I grab my hair out of frustration then run my fingers through it. "All my plans will be ruin because of this." I whispered to myself. "I just had everything planned out. We were close into clearing your name and yet, how can I do this now? You weren't thinking!" I s
CAROLINE ESTER'S POVI watch as he forcefully grab Hanna on her waist. Despite having the urge to help, my body is simply not cooperating. My body felt like been punched and went to different trials. I feel so weak and helpless. So helpless that I cannot do anything about Lexus's attitude towards Hanna. A big slamming of door occupied this four cornered unknown room I am in. Lexus left the room and I hugged my knees and droplets of tears began to race down the soft bed I am on. I grabbed my hair, trying to remember how I ended up being here...These past few days, I've been getting morning sickness, cravings and symptoms of being pregnant. I took a pregnancy test...I wanted to know for myself if my guts were right. That day...I saw two red lines. My eyes were heating in attempt of not making my tears fall—which I failed to do. I remember holding it and then frantically kept it on my side pocket. There was these emotions streaming down me, my heart is beating fast...I am owned,
KNIGHT ARCHANGEL'S POVIt has been close to a week since my wife went missing. Since Caroline had pasts that was clinging to her name, the kingdom could not care more of her disappearance. It was like they all just accepted that she was gone one day.Which rages me."Alpha Prince, you have a meeting with this and this and hdiensj" My secretary's voice added to the cacophony of sounds. I covered my ears as she keeps on discussing my schedule. "I need to find my wife." I clearly stated, glaring at her. "I need to find my wife! Get out of my sight." I added and shove her away. She insist on keeping to my pace as I storm off. That is the only thing I care about right now. It has been 5 days and the idea of her absence adding days, is enough for me to lose my mind. "But sir, I need you t---" "WHAT THE FUCK!!" I turned to her and slam the papers out of her hand. The papers flew all around. The woman's hand began to tremble as she quickly kneel to gather the papers on the floor tog
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
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
