Olivia's POV

“Olivia! Olivia! I'm sorry! I'm sorry!...”

"Shut up! She isn't the one talking to you!” André snapped.

I stepped back. It was terrifying seeing Jonas begging me in this state. He was more than a shadow of his old self.

“Olivia!"

“Silence you bastard!" Pierre yelled.

His finger nails sunk into his skin and I could see blood seeping from beneath.

“Don't hurt him!" Alvida demanded. “He has lost enough blood and he is weak."

Pierre eased up the pressure and I could seeing blood bruises were his fingers were.

“I am giving you one more chance to answer my question. Tell us about, Doran.”

Jonas’ eyes met mine. My lips couldn't move but my eyes said everything.

"Just tell them what they need to know,” they said.

He looked away from me and took a deep breath. I could only imagine the kind of pain that he was in.

"Doran? Is…is that his name?"

“What the fuck do you mean ‘is that his name’?!”

André's fury was terrifying. The way is voice boomed and his eyes glowed cast a scary sh

    André's POV I pulled Olivia close and kissed her hair. I shouldn’t have allowed her to stay. I should have known that it would be terrifying for her.“What are you going to do about Doran?” she asked, lifting her head and looking at me.I smoothed her hair, hesitant to reply. She h ad been through enough as it was. I didn’t want to bother her any more than I should.“Alpha, should I start…”Sephora stood behind me. She and Pieree must have locked Jonas up. I would as that fool more questions later. The Allequian juice was still coursing through his veins and if I listened hard enough, I could still hear him screaming.“Sephora, I need you to stay with Olivia.”I didn’t need to look at Olivia to see that she had a frown on her face. Doran was still lurking. I still had work to do and I couldn’t compromise her safety.“André…”I cupped her face in my hands and stared into her beautiful eyes. I didn’t want her here. It was dangerous and unsightly for her. We still had injured warriors t

    Doran’s POVI could feel my airways constricting. I felt a warm liquid run down my face. I wiped it with the back of my hand while I held on tight to the coat of the wolf that was carrying me. Blood. More blood…“Fuck!”I coughed and more blood poured out of me, soiling the coat of my wolf.“Run…Faster!”I gasped. I could feel my death creeping closer. I might not make it. My grip weakened and I tumbled off the wolf and rolled to the ground, my knees, elbows and shins, being bruised as I barely rolled over sharp sticks and stones.“Master!”My man had shifted back in to his human form and was kneeling at my side. I could barely get on my feet. I raised my head and saw my hideout in the distance.“Antidote…cough cough! More blood …in there.”“W…what does the bottle look like?”“Gr…”I could no longer breathe. My vision started to darken ands before i was swept off by the dark void, i saw my man run into the building. I collapsed on the ground. I could feel my airways shut. I knew i had

    Olivia’s POVAs Sephora and I walked away, I strained to listen to what he was saying to his men. I wished he would let me stay. I just wanted to help. I looked up at Sephora and as much as she tried to hide it, she looked exhausted and worn out. Her face was stained with blood and her arms and legs still had cuts and scrapes that were still healing.“I’m glad that we all made it out,” she said wearily. Her voice was weak and lacking the usual vigor. Despite her tiredness, her lips curved into little smiles and I had every reason to believe that I knew who she was thinking about. She was so lucky to have him.“Alvida!”We saw her talking to a guard and as soon as we approached, he left. Her lips were drawn in a hard line. Her old eyes looked tired as well. I couldn’t imagine how hard it was for her to attend to all these injured people.Her eyes fell on Sephora who tried her best to manage a genuine smile.“My dear, you look exhausted. Wait here.”She ducked into her makeshift tent a

I realize that Pierre isn’t back yet so i need you to take a headcount of the number of injured that we have. We need to know our strength just in case we need to ride out soon.”“Yes, Sir. Anything else?”I gave the guard a few more instructions and he took them down. I craned my neck and looked around. I saw a few men that Pierre had taken with him on his mission. I guess they were back and I was expecting a report soon.“Sir, we found a few survivors from Jonas’ men. They are really injured. We aren’t sure how much longer they will stay alive.”As we talked, some men walked up to us dragging two bodies with them. They were covered in blood and their breathing was weak. They looked like they didn’t have long to live. I could get the report from Pierre later; I had to take them to Alvida.“Follow me.”The men trudged behind me as we walked through the crowds. I could see the intense gla

    Olivia’s POVI couldn’t explain how happy I was for Piere and Sephora. They looked perfect for each other. I couldn’t help but sign happily. Sephora had come a long way. It was like her stone-faced trainer demeanor had disappeared just yesterday.We watched them walk away while Hailey disappeared inside Alvida’s tent with Alvida following her behind.I lowered myself on the rock Sephora had been sitting on and patted the spot next to me for Andree to join me.“You still want to sit out here? This is no place for the Luna of the pack and the future heir that she carries.”I smiled and rubbed my belly. It had gotten slightly bigger but was still small enough for me to conceal with ease.“Are you going to keep standing there or are you going to sit down next to me?” I joked.André rolled his eyes and an amused smirk crossed those beautiful lips of his. He looked amazing. His hair was a mess and dirt and grime stained his cheeks but he was still as handsome as ever with a little rusticnes

    Olivia’s POVI took him into my mouth. He tasted amazing. His juices were flowing freely. "Ahhhhn... Olivia." His fist in my hair felt so primal and desirous. I sucked him a little more and he couldn't take it anymore. He moved his waist rhythmically, groaning as my tongue tasted him. It was amazing. He was amazing. I pulled out a little and focused on the tip. I could see his legs quivering as he fought to keep it together. My sex was soaking from watching him like this. He was this way because of me. "Olivia...fuck! You are such a naughty girl. I will have to punish... Ahhn... You after...this." I pulled away and looked up at him, watching him catch his breath. "I will be looking forward to it." I took his balls into my mouth and his groans intensified. He took his hands out of my hair and placed them on the wall to steady himself. He was under my spell. It was wonderful being in control. My mouth continued to work while my dainty fingers stroked his cock. Each touch was e

I sat in the back seat of my car, silently watching the road as we approached the silver gates of the Empire.I wish I could say that it was good to be home.I scoffed as one of the patrol officers walked up to the car."Who are you and what is your business here?" Ryan said nothing and simply pointed to the back seat.The guard walked over and as soon as he saw my face, he stepped back and gave me a deep bow."Pr... Prince Doran. I...I didn't know it was you." I scowled at the fool. He was lucky that I had other things on my mind.I waved the guard away and he ran to meet his colleagues.I saw him whisper something to them and immediately, the gates were opened. It was nice to see that the servants still knew their place and had not lost their respect. I sighed. I wished I could say the same about my family. As we drove into the streets, I looked around. The magnificent tall building and lush scenery always took me away.

    Olivia’s POVIt was morning. I was woken up by André’s stirring. He pulled me closer and my nostrils breathed in more of his godly scent. His hair was messy and all over his face. He looked perfect. He was all mine.I stretched out a hand to move his hair out of the way and his eyes fluttered open, fixed on me and soon, he broke into a handsome smile. My face turned red as we stared at each other.“Good morning, Kitten.”“I’m sorry, I woke you,” I said shyly.He groaned and pulled me closer to him and before I knew it, he was on top of me, pinning me to the bed, his eyes gazing at me and shining like jewels as the morning sun fell on his face.“You didn’t wake me.”His lips swooped on mine and he stole a deep kiss. I moaned against his sweet mouth but it was short lived and I scowled in frustration. He laughed and pinched my cheeks.“Do you know how cute you look when you are mad.”“You won’t be laughing when I get serious,” I said with a huff, turning away from him and feigning annoy

I smiled warmly.My children.Jasper ran around, and his little sister chased after him. Their delightful giggles filled the air and brought smiles to my face.“Jasper, be careful. Your sister might not be able to keep you with you." He slowed down a little bit and his sister caught up with him. He embraced her and she smiled and played with his hair.“Hello, beautiful."

You should come inside." André ran his hand seductively over mine. I bit my lower lip and

I want the baby to be comfortable.”The maids shook their heads and continued to fuss over the dress.“You look beautiful, Luna Olivia. I am sure the Alpha is going to love it.”I was nervous as they put the finishing touches on the dress.“All done.”They stepped away, and I twirled in the mirror. The dress was beautiful, embroidered with intricate silk moon designs that were trimmed in gold.“The Alpha also asked me to give this to you as a gift.”One of the maids stepped forward with a beautiful velvet box in her hands.I took it from her, and my hands trembled slightly.I opened the box, and inside it was a beautiful gold necklace with a jeweled pendant. The maids all squealed in delight, and one of them offered to fasten it around my neck.I touched it gently as the maid fastened it, and I could feel my heart swelling with love for André. It wasn't difficult to tell that the necklace was very expensive.“Lu

    Olivia’s POVDear André,If you are getting this, I am probably in jail or maybe on the brink of death. I got my idiot step-brother to write this. God, I hate the bastard.I don't know how long before they decide that it's time to end my life but I've been doing a lot thinking and I regret what I did.As I sit here in this cell, all I can think about are the good times we had. The laughs, the jokes. I can't believe I threw that all away because I wanted a throne that would never be given to me.I sit here and all I can think about is Amelia. Her beautiful face, her soft breasts, her sweet kisses. What I wouldn't give to be with her at this moment. It is now I realize that she is everything I needed.It is crazy how the stench of death makes one ponder about his life and truly appreciate the things we have. Tell her that I love her, that I have always loved her. I wanted the best for her but now, I will never taste her lips again.Apologize to Olivia for me. I planned to take her as a

  • Alpha Stepfather Is My Mate!   255. I Missed You, Mate.

    Olivia's POVThe mansion was a hive of activity. I stood at the door and watched André. He had barely gotten a good night's sleep. My fever had happened a few times but it felt selfish to ask him to have sex with me."You know that you don't need to hide at the door."I saw Sephora standing behind me and I blushed."I just don't want to bother him.""I'm positive that he would love to see you." I turned around and saw André looking at me with a smile. My light shade of pink turned a deep scarlet and Sephora gave me a gentle nudge.André had put down his phone and the worry lines on his forehead disappeared."Well, are you going to keep standing at the door peeping at me? I heard it is rude to stare." I turned around. Sephora had gone and I was all alone.I walked into the room and André grabbed me and pulled me into a tight embrace.His lips warmed my cheek and forehead and I sank deeper into his embrace."I missed you, mate.–" He nuzzled his nose into my hair and took a deep brea

  • Alpha Stepfather Is My Mate!   254. This Is The Traitor.

    Doran's POVI wasn't sure how long I was in the cell. The night here seemed to last forever. The sun rose but its light never made it to the window that was miserably placed in my cell. The rats scurried around me and nibbled at my toes and clothes. My stomach growled monstrously and my hair and face were a mess. I was more than a shadow of my old self. I spent many nights thinking, brooding, about the good times I had with André. Amelia... She was probably ashamed and angry at me. I craved her embrace, her fingers on my back. At this point, it was the equivalent of heaven. It was where I wanted to be. The door creaked open and four men walked into the cell. What were they doing here? My brother had already come in here last night. Or was it this morning?"Doran, today is the day of your trial. Please come with us." My eyes widened. It... It couldn't be. It... It was too early. It wasn't time. "No. No. No! It can't be!" They opened my cell and seized the opportunity. However,

  • Alpha Stepfather Is My Mate!   253. Guards! Take Him Away!

    Doran's POVI scoffed. I had spent more nights than necessary in this lousy place. I turned the corner and some maids scurried past me with their heads held low. I shook my head. I couldn't wait to get the fuck out of here. André, I am coming for you. My knuckles cracked as I clenched them, hate and rage bubbling in my mind. The men were supposed to move out today. André wouldn't know what hit him and soon, Olivia would be mine and my brothers wouldn't dare to look at me with such disrespect ever again. I reached my father's study and found the door ajar. Strange; he never left the door open. A dim light was pouring out from inside. Maybe he was inside but then again, there were no guards at the door. I pushed it open and went inside. My father's chair was turned around and I could see a dark silhouette of him sitting as he faced the dimly lit fireplace. "Good morning, Father. Are the men ready for the move? I believe that time is of the essence." My words were met with silen

    Olivia's POV The meeting was soon over and Fentris was the first to leave. I smirked. I had trained hard with Alvida to be able to release my powers in small amounts. The last two days had been rigorous.We all left the meeting last and entered a private room. André asked two guards to stand at the door and we all stood around the table."That was a successful meeting," Sephora said with a sigh.André exhaled deeply. His arms were folded across his chest."It is too early to conclude. I saw Fentris and how uncomfortable he was. Our victory will start if he buys it and relays the information to his boss." I tried my best to hold back my smirk but soon all heads were turned to me, except Alvida and Sephora who acted coolly."Is there a problem, Olivia?" Pierre asked, looking concerned."Oh. Nothing. I just thought to tell you all that Fentris swallowed everything that we said, hook, line and sinker." André looked at me in shock."Olivia? What did you do?" I looked at him innocently

    André’s POVI stood in the mirror and looked at myself over. I couldn't believe I was going to face those old bastards again. I envisioned Fentris' face and the urge to strangle him flared inside of me. "I love seeing you in a tie." Olivia strode up to me and fiddled with my tie, adjusting it and placing it in the center, even though I knew she didn't need to. I smiled and kissed her forehead. My hand ran over her stomach and our baby kicked back in response. She was all dressed for the meeting as well even though I asked her to take the time off and rest. I ran my hands through her hair and she leaned into my touch and beamed at me. "Are you sure that you don't want to stay and rest? A foot massage will be much better than listening to the council."She chuckled and smoothed my shirt. "I agreed to stay away if there was a war. I want to stay and listen to the meeting. I want to see Fentris as well."I exhaled. That traitor was going to pay as soon as all this was over. I swor

  • Alpha Stepfather Is My Mate!   250. Holding back my tears.

    Olivia's POVI was up early. This wasn't the night I was expecting to have in my home as soon as I got back. I rolled over in bed. André's space was empty but still warm. He had gotten up a few minutes ago. A sigh escaped my lips. He was probably in his study. I heard him say something like that to Pierre earlier. I looked out the window. It was still dark out and the cool breeze was blowing and howling outside. I grabbed my robe that hung on the chair and draped myself. I was just as worried as he was about this plan. If it didn't work, we could all be in danger. My baby, our baby could be in danger. The lights in the hallway were all dim and I saw a dim light coming from his study. My guess was right and as I eased the door open, I saw him on the chair with books open in front of him. "Hey," I said softly and he raised his eyes from his book and gave me a weary smile. "You should be resting," he said, gently. "And so should you. But here you are." I walked towards him and h
