“I break every tie I have with you today, Sophie. Go and never return!” Those words were the beginning of Sophie's pain and never-ending struggles. Sophie Stones, once the beloved mate of Crown Prince Maxon Ironclaw, saw her world crumble with just a few damning words. Their love, once the envy of all, turned to ashes when Sophie was found guilty of killing Maxon's sister and cheating on him. Maxon, who had forsaken his crown for their love, felt the sting of betrayal pierce his heart. He severed all ties with Sophie, casting her out of the palace and erasing her from his life. Sophie, unaware of her pregnancy until after she was thrown out, discovered that one of her twins had a disability due to the fall caused by Maxon's push. This fueled an eternal enmity within her towards him, vowing to shield her children from his influence and make him pay if they ever crossed paths. Five years passed, and fate brought them face-to-face once more. Sophie's hatred for Maxon, fueled by her child's condition, remained steadfast. Simultaneously, Maxon's anger burned fiercely for Sophie's infidelity and her sister's death, driving them both to seek revenge upon each other. The stage was set for a confrontation where past wounds would resurface and old flames would reignite. Their once-broken relationship would either remain broken or be repaired.

It had been a few weeks since we got back to this world, and even though I was scared to come back with Maxon at first, it has been the best decision I made.After the confrontation with his mom and the blast at the hospital, Maxon was lucky to have been thrown out of the hospital by the force of the blast; he sustained some injuries which healed in no time after his wolf came back to action.Asher had finally recovered too, even th
Chapter Eighty-sixThe Last FightMaxon’s POVWe were back to where it all started again. The car, which carried us, drove into the palace, and as the door people, a long line of guards marched towards us, saluting as I stepped out of the car.“You are welcome back, your highness.” They all bowed.I smiled; it felt really good to be back, and better because I had Sophie and my kids with me. That feeling of loneliness and emptiness was no longer there. I carried Asher in my arms, his leg still having a cast around it; the doctor had said it would take a few more weeks before he gets fully recovered.The guards formed two lines and kept us in the middle as we walked into the palace. Everyone around was wearing black from head to toe, to pay respect to my father who just passed on.I headed directly for the courtroom, where I was sure my mom would be.“Mother!” I called as I saw her from afar.A big smile fell on her face. “My son!” She murmured. “How long has it been? It feels like eter
Chapter Eighty-fiveMaking Up With My MateMaxon’s POV“You’re not completely healed yet, but since you said you want to leave now, we have no other choice than to let you go,” the doctor said to me.I nodded at him with a smile. “Thank you, thank you so much for your help.”“You shouldn’t be thanking me because I only did my job as a doctor; you should thank the heavens for making this surgery a success.”I had lost all hope that I was going to live, but after I saw Sophie in that condition battling for her life, I got scared of dying and leaving everything behind. Even though I had planned to leave it all behind before, I didn’t want to die.“I’m glad you made the right decision; this just shows that even when it is a 0.5% survival rate, a miracle can happen.”I nodded at the doctor and took a quick glance at my watch; I was running late. “Thanks for everything, doctor; I will take my leave now.”“Sure. Make sure you take the drugs as I have instructed and always go for the checkup
Chapter Eighty-fourThe LetterSophie’s POVMy head banged as the light shone into my eyes; I closed my eyes back and remained in the bed. My whole body felt so heavy; it felt as though the most weight was suspended around my left shoulder and down to my arm.I tried once again, turning away from the ray of life this time, and I saw Rose, sitting beside me.I closed my eyes one more time as I tried to recollect all that had happened, where I was, and what led to me being hospitalized.It took a few minutes for me to remember it all; my heart skipped when I remembered I took the bullet for Maxon.“Rose!” I called.“You are up!” She jumped up on her feet and held my hand. “Thank goodness, I was so scared, I thought I would lose you?”“It isn’t that fatal; I was just out for some hours.” I murmured. She smiled at me.“Hours?” She chuckled and looked at her wristwatch. “Some hours more will make it a week that you’ve been out.”My eyes bulged out, “a week?” I asked, fumbling to sit up on
Chapter Eight-threeThere, It Ends.Maxon’s POV"Charge it to 250 joules!" The doctor instructed and rubbed the surface of the defibrillator against each other before charging Sophie with it.I could no longer watch; I staggered back, staring blankly in horror. Why did this have to happen? Why does she have to go through all of this because of me? Why is she always at the receiving end of it?"What will happen to our mom? Will she be fine?" Amara asked, tears rolling down her eyes.I fell beside her and pulled her closer to myself; I wasn't sure of what to say to them, I wasn't sure of how to assure them. Sophie was there battling between life and death, and I was the reason for that; it was all because of me. My heart shattered, my body trembled as I forced my tears back, trying hard to act normal in the presence of the kids."Make way! Make way!" I heard the loud voice and quickly jumped up, pulling the kids away from the way.I saw the nurses pushing Sophie out of the ward room on
Chapter Eighty-threeThe TruthMaxon’s POVSophie and I stood steps away from the uncompleted building the map directed us to, but I wasn’t sure if that was the exact location we were coming to.“Are you sure we didn’t miss the way?” Sophie asked.I nodded at her. “The map directed us to this place.” I looked around. “They should be somewhere here, the building, maybe.”Just when we were still talking, Sophie’s phone rang again, it was from the same private number as before.She picked it and put it on speaker. “Look at the building in front of you, tell him to come with the money to the building.” The man said and dropped the call.Sophie’s face dropped, her hands shook as she held mine. “Please promise me that you will be fine, please promise to come back with the kids safely.”I smiled faintly and nodded at her. “I will bring the kids back, no matter what.” I pulled her hand away from mine slowly and picked up the bag which contained the money from the car before heading towards th
Chapter Eighty-twoThe KidnapMaxon’s POVI turned off the light in my room, moved on to the hallway, and turned it off, down to the main room, the last place. I looked around; I had spent my life there since the last five years, I had been there with sadness and emptiness, and just the moment when I was supposed to enjoy the warm and happiness of being with my kids, I had to let them go so they wouldn’t be in danger.It’s been a week since I forced Sophie and the kids out of my life, for the best reason. It had been hell since then; I tried so much to avoid her in the company; I couldn’t deal with it. I had never known happiness since I came to this world; it changed a bit when I saw Sophie again, and I got the happiness I needed when I found out about my kids and got to claim them as mine, but now, I was losing all of that happiness again.It would be better to keep them away and know that they’re doing well than to keep them close to me and have them in danger.I sighed, taking my
Chapter Eight-oneThe Real Culprit Maxon’s POV“I have said this before, and I will say it again. I know nothing about this; I have never stolen anyone’s idea and I will never do that! Never!”“You can keep going on and on with that, but we have the evidence against you.” The officer lashed at me. “It will be better to own up to your mistakes and crime now before it is too late.”Own up to my mistake? That sounded familiar; I had heard it before.From Leo, he had told me to pen up to my mistakes too. Were the heavens trying to punish me? Am I being punished for the mistakes I made already? I shook my head. “You have to believe me, officer. I do not know anything about all these; I didn’t steal this idea, it is mine!” “Well, the...”He stopped when the door came, and another officer walked in. He got to him and whispered in his ears before leaving.“I’ll be right back,” the officer said and walked out.I sighed and buried my face in my palms; who could have done this to me? Who coul
Chapter EightyFinding The TruthSophie’s POVI wasn’t sure of what to do; there must be a mix-up somewhere. Maxon would never steal someone else’s idea; he would never do such a thing.I wandered around the hallway, going back and forth with my mind racing. I wasn’t sure where to go next.He had given me the project, and he even lost the contract he was working on because of me. Now he was getting arrested for stealing that same idea. What the officer said struck me again, that I must have been the one who leaked it, and I was sure Maxon must be thinking the same thing.I shook my head; it wasn’t the time to start brooding. I had to take actions. I rushed back to my space, grabbed my bag, and rushed into his office to pick up the car keys.I rushed back out and headed down; I had to go see him first to talk to him, maybe he was the one who did the mix-up.Maybe he mixed up the project with another one, or he mistakenly leaked it because I was sure the mistake wasn’t from my end. The
Chapter OneThe Conspiracy Sophie’s POV"Your highness! Your highness, please listen to me. You have to believe me; I didn't do this!" I pleaded, desperation filling my voice as I was forcefully dragged into the courtroom. My hands were stained with Mia's innocent blood, and in my other hand, I held the murderer's weapon. What had happened in the last few minutes and how I had reached this point, where I was being doubted, was still so hard for me to comprehend."Get on your knees!" one of the guards barked at me, but I just couldn't do it.My hands trembled, and my whole body shook. I glanced to the side, my eyes catching Mia's lifeless body, and I wished she could just wake up and tell everyone that I didn't do this. I wished she could tell them that I didn't kill her."I said, get on your knees!" the guard shouted again and pushed me to the floor.My knees collided with the cold tiled floor, and I found myself kneeling before the imposing figures of the Alpha King, the Luna Queen,...
