IvyWhat did that man mean by ‘two hundred years’? Was this just a joke?I walk down the short hallway to the open plan living space which is only separated from the kitchen by the big island and a couple of barstools. As I round the corner, I catch the sight of Lorenzo standing over the stove, but his head is already turned in my direction. Did he hear me coming? I’m sure there’s no way he would’ve noticed me, I tried to be as quiet as possible.“What do you mean… two hundred years?” I gape at Lorenzo in shock, feeling all the blood drain from my face when my mind starts conjuring disturbing images about him.The dark-skinned man that said those words earlier is only standing quietly, waiting for next things to unfold, but I catch his eyes dart between me and Lorenzo anxiously before they settle on me. He gives me a big smile and takes a step towards me with his hand outstretched. “Hey, I’m Alex. I’m a friend of Lorenzo. You must be Ivy. – he shakes my hand gently when I turn to him

Ivy*beep* *beep* *beep*The annoying sound is getting on my nerves, making me groan in annoyance.Wait! Hold on!Beeping sound?I force my eyes to open, only to shut them again when the light almost blinds me. I try again, this time slower so my eyes can adjust to the bright lighting.“Yvette!” I turn my head when I hear a male voice beside me. The man stares at me with wide brown eyes, frowning deeply. Who is this guy?He reaches out to press a button on the wall, telling me a doctor will be here soon then just stares at me blankly.“Wh-where am… am I?” I try to speak, but despite my effort, the words come out slurred and barely intelligible.“You’re in a hospital.” I blink slowly to get rid of the dizziness then glance around the room. It’s pure white and it’s hurting my eyes.I nod at the man then shut my eyes to ease the headache.After few moments, I hear the door open and a man in a white coat walks in. That must be the doctor. “Hello, honey. I’m Dr. Morris, but you can call me

IvyThe man from earlier whom Dr. Leon called my father, didn’t come back to my room again after I woke up. I have a feeling he doesn’t want to see me. It’s been few days now, but he still hasn’t shown up.There’s another man that keeps coming here here, though. He says he’s my husband.But I’m not sure how I feel about it. I saw the ring on my finger, but it just… doesn’t feel right.It’s like there’s something they’re not telling me.I watch silently as Dr. Leon walks into my room with a sympathetic look on his face. “Hi Yvette. How are you feeling? Any discomfort? Pain? Headaches?” He warmly asks, checking my chart.I point at my throat weakly, getting a sad sigh from him. “I know, Yvette. It’s uncomfortable, isn’t it? – I nod – I’m sorry, but you know why it’s in.” Yeah, I know why this tube is in my throat.It’s because I can’t breathe without it.The thing on my neck, which I still don’t know what it is, is infected and swollen, both from the inside and outside. It puts pressure

LorenzoNothing can beat the feeling of my mate in my arms when I wake up. Absolutely nothing.Opening my eyes only to see my little Ivy watching me with those gorgeous chocolate orbs is beyond amazing. It feels right. It’s just as it should be.The only thing wrong is the setting.I’d rather wake up with her in our bed, not in a hospital, but I’ll take what I can get.“Good morning, love.” I greet warmly, caressing her delicate cheek softly. How I wish she could talk to me, but with the swelling from the mark and the tube in her throat it’s impossible.“I hope you had good rest, my love. I’d love to take you home with me today. – she frowns fearfully at this, panting heavily – No, please, don’t be scared my love. I won’t hurt you like that man. I’ll take care of you. I have a doctor already at my house, along with a nurse that will help you in everyday activities. But if you’re not comfortable with that, I can ask the hospital staff to help.” I gently tell her, slightly worried when

IvyI let the man, whose name I still don’t know, carry me inside the huge house located in the middle of the woods. For some reason, his presence calms me down. I’m not as scared of him as I was with Jake and the other man who supposedly is my father.This man doesn’t scare me.And I don’t know why.The strangest thing, though, is how my senses are… sharper. I heard everything Dr. Leon told the man. He even called him ‘his majesty’. Is this man a king or something? Why would Dr. Leon call him like that?They kept talking about some weird biting thing, some mark, some alpha, and other strange things I don’t understand.I really hope someone will explain it to me.Hopefully, it’ll be this man that promised to ‘take care’ of me. He’s the only one, apart from Dr. Leon, that I think I can trust. He’s not like Jake, and I think that’s what puts me at ease the most.“Love, would you like to see the house? I can take you on a tour if you want.” The man smiles warmly, making my heart beat fas

LorenzoI almost growl as I recall my painful past. I’ve never told anyone about it.Ivy stays quiet, just listening attentively to my tale.“The man decided that if his son is what it takes for the woman to help him become who he wants to be, then so be it. He swore to the witch he’d let her have his son if she did what she promised.Of course, the man had no idea how the witch would do what he wanted her too. He didn’t know what she was going to do to help him achieve his goal. He was so hungry for power he didn’t care about the price for it.The witch did fulfill her promise. She somehow got to the emperor and killed him. She then had his sons give up their rights to the throne in favor of the man’s son. The son that didn’t want the power to begin with.The witch betrayed the man she was supposed to help because she was enamored with his son. She decided that the man didn’t deserve to rule, so she made the boy she was in love with get the throne. She then poisoned the young boy’s f

IvyThis is so sad...Lorenzo went through so much. I feel so bad for him.I hate that I can’t talk yet, but I can express myself in a different way. I have this need to comfort Lorenzo, to show him that I’m not afraid. Not of him.After a while, I notice my position on Lorenzo’s legs and I already feel my face burn in embarrassment. This man bared his soul to me and here I am being touchy. I try to scramble off his lap, but one pained growl stops all my movements.“Please, stay.” He looks at me with sad golden eyes and I have a feeling he misunderstood my intention.I quickly get the notepad. ‘You must be uncomfortable’. I show him the page, getting only a warm smile in response.“Not at all, love. I love having you close. Remember how I said the mates are separated halves of the same soul? – I nod silently – When they meet, the wolf has this unbearable urge to be close to his mate, to protect them, to be with them. The stronger the wolf, the stronger the need. The wolf's mate, unles

LorenzoI watch as Lia walks out from Ivy’s room, eager to hear what my mate thinks about everything. I called Lia last night and told her about Ivy’s situation, asking her to see my mate. Of course, I offered to arrange transport for her but she quickly refused, saying it’d take too long. I proved her wrong when I had my private jet ready within an hour, along with the car that picked her up from the airport.After Lia arrived, along with Blake, she immediately went to see Ivy, leaving me and her man in the living room.“Oh shit…” Lia breathes out, falling onto the couch tiredly, having talked to my mate for the last few hours. I knew Ivy doesn’t remember her and I warned Lia about this, but from the moment the two girls were left alone, all I could hear was Lia’s voice and Ivy’s quick scribbling on the paper.I understood that my mate was in good hands, so I decided to fill Blake in everything that went on with my Ivy. He was surprised, to say the least. He told me that for those mo

Ivy It’s been a week since the battle against Cornelia, but we’re still dealing with its aftermath. Ren has been extremely busy managing the disappearances, having the biggest issue with none other than my ‘father’.I stayed right beside him as he talked to Cade about it.He told the warrior to fake a car accident in which my parents and I supposedly ‘died’. He said that since my ‘father’ was a public figure, his death had to be public, too. I wondered why I was supposed to die, too, but Ren said that it’s the safest way for me to stay with him without being bothered by paparazzi or anything. That way, no one will suspect anything about my immortality and I’ll be able to start my life with him and Wolfie.Cade contacted some man that specializes in special effect make-up for movies or something and said that he could make three mannequins to look

LorenzoAfter I took my sweet queen to our bedroom, we took a long shower together, washing away both the dirt we got on us and the worries that plagued our minds. The hot water helped my mate calm down and made her quite sleepy, which is why I wanted to put her to sleep.But all it got me was a harsh glare. Ivy did not like the idea of taking a nap. At all.It took all my willpower to not gather her in my arms and kissing her senseless at the sight of her adorable scowl. She’s so fucking cute when she’s angry!Since my sweet queen didn’t want to leave me, I’ve decided to take her with me to the clinic to check on the injured. It’s been an hour since they were brought to the infirmary and I’m worried about them.I’ve never seen Lia heal anyone, so who knows if she can save them…With Ivy’s hand in mine, I walk towards the clinic, throwing a furtive glance at The

IvyI stay in Ren’s arms as he hugs me on the roof, just taking in his soothing presence greedily. I had a suspicion that Cornelia could actually be my mother, but seeing it with my own eyes still hurt.Not to mention the Undead that kept a hold on me earlier.It was my dad.But he didn’t even acknowledge me as he held onto me.Neither of them did.Almost as if I was nothing but a speck of dust.On one hand I’m sad that I meant so little to them in the long run, but on the other… it gave me the closure I so desperately needed.Had my parents had any feelings for me, felt any remorse for trying to use me to bring Ren down, I would’ve thought about giving them a chance. But… since they didn’t do any of that, I don’t even feel bad about them dying.They deserved everything that happened to them.“My love, are you alright?” Re

Third Person POVChoose...Between Blake and Ivy.What kind of choice is that?“Come on, darling, don’t leave us hanging.” Cornelia taunts smugly, casually walking back and forth in front of her captives. As she passes by Blake, she gently caresses his face, making him recoil in disgust. “He’s handsome. It’s actually a pity to kill him…” She chuckles when Lia raises her gun again and points it at her.“Don’t you fucking put your hands on him.” The young human warns deadly, keeping her rifle pointed straight at the witch’s head.“Territorial, are we?”“Touch him again and you’ll see for yourself.”“Lia, calm down. It’s not just about Blake…” Lorenzo tries to pacify the young witch, absolutely terrified for his mate’s safety. One wrong move and his queen will die. Yet

Third Person POVThe King’s allies are waiting anxiously for their enemies to arrive. Aiden, Asher and their group of fifty warriors are in the back of the Alpha’s house, while Ivy, the Kingstons, the Deads and the remaining twenty warriors are in the front, right where an army of almost two hundred men is heading.The alliance has no idea what force they’re about to face, but they’re not worried. With four Undeads on their side, one of them being a hybrid, two snipers on the roof, one of them being a white witch that has acquired powers of her ancestor, and an immortal queen, they feel more powerful than a bunch of rogues and humans that are heading their way.Lia’s reveal about her identity has brought nothing but assurance for the wolves sent to aid the King in the war. They felt that the young girl was not an average human, but it was only after she informed them about her witch ancestry did they u

Third Person POV The war has officially begun when a rogue wolf attacked the house where the King and other alphas have been staying at. He stormed inside, intending to get to Lorenzo’s mate, but his ambush was quickly stopped when Thea got in his way.The Undead Luna immediately stopped the wolf and easily killed him, not even caring about getting any information from him.“Who the fuck was that?!” Lorenzo questions suspiciously, holding onto his mate in pure despair, shielding her from the scene in front of them.“A rogue. I heard him run here…” Thea snarls furiously, panting in anger as she stands over the dead body of the assailant.“Fuck!” The king yells, his voice mixing with his wolf’s as his blood boils in fury.“What’s going on?” The group is quickly joined by the human couple, both frantic with worry. Lia glances around the room

IvyThea’s sons are here? Really?And she’s not even worried?They are her kids!“Really? Those idiots.” Leo grumbles, turning off the stove before he marches to the front door.“Leo!” “Dad!” Thea and Hunter call out after him, following him outside. Ren doesn’t even hesitate and swiftly picks me up then leads me to the front porch, keeping my hand in his as we watch Leo berate his sons.“Are you out of your minds? Coming here when a war is coming? You don’t even have a proper training! How are you going to fight, huh?” Leo scolds his three sons, pacing anxiously in front them as they stand in one line with their heads down.“Dad… we just want to help.” One of them mutters quietly.“Help?! Liam! This is a full blown-out war, not some sparring session with the warriors!”“Leo, stop it

LorenzoAfter Lia revealed her powers and told us about her encounter with Thalia, she went to take a nap, saying that after spending decades with the ‘annoying witch’ she’s even more tired than earlier. As always, Blake joined her, so the only people left in the living room are the Kingstons, Ivy and me.I keep my little mate on my lap as she talks to Skye, playing with her long silky hair distractedly as I digest what Lia revealed.Cornelia is coming. She can control the water element. She has an army of Undeads that she most likely created with Ulrich’s blood. Ivy’s parents are not her parents. It’s quite likely that Cornelia is also Ivy’s mother, which makes all of this even more complicated. I don’t know how close my little queen is with her mother and how will she take her death.Because I don’t plan on sparing the witch. She’s going to die no matter what. I’m only wo
Alpha Trilogy The King - Chapter 61
IvyHoly crap! Lia is literally the most mysterious person I’ve ever met! Just when I thought nothing could surprise me, something comes up.“Wait… if that Xan…, whatever her name is, was Thalia’s ancestor… then isn’t she also your ancestor?” I wonder out loud, getting a quiet sigh from Lia.“Yeah. – she breathes out – But that doesn’t mean I’m going to follow their plan to kill Lorenzo. I mean…Thalia said in my dream that it’s supposed to be my duty or whatever, but I think holding grudges for ten generations is just petty. Like, okay, I get being mad, but not for this long. Lorenzo may have killed Xanthe, but his action was justified in my opinion. Xanthe cursed his father with a beast and immortal life then split his soul into two. She deserved what she got, so telling her descendants, specifically those who share the
