CHAPTER 30Vincenzo’s POV“Roberta?”, I called out, walking towards her bedroom.I noticed the door was slightly ajar when I got to its post.I nudged it gently with my foot and walked in, scanning the room with my eyes as I did.She was nowhere to be found.“Roberta!”, I called again. My voice sounded a little desperate this time around and I did not like it.I walked deeper into the room, observing the wrinkled spot on her bed which suggested that she was there not long ago.After Roberta walked into the wall with Oregon, I waited for them to come out for hours.While I waited, the women in his cottage offered to prepare a room for me to rest. I refused at first, but as I waited for them deeper into the night, it was clear that they were not going to be out of there any time soon.“Excuse me”, I said to one of the women who had come into the dining room to check on me.I was sure that it was well past midnight at the time.“Yes, Alpha?”, she asked, walking closer to me.I nearly sc
Chapter 31Roberta's POV “I should at least come with you guys. This is obviously a trap”, Manuel said. He rubbed his forehead wearily and paced up and down as he spoke.We were standing in the secret game plan room in the training arena.Only the three of us stood there; Vincenzo, Manuel and I.Natalie would have been with us, but she had vanished alongside my children after she went undercover to investigate a rival territory.After seeing the note from Charlotte and the painting of the cliff, Vincenzo and I came to the conclusion that it would be better if we went alone, like Charlotte had asked.It was foolish to obey the enemy and we knew it, but we were willing to risk whatever would happen to us. It seemed to be worth the risk if we stood a chance of walking back with our children alive.“We have to go alone. She will know if you come with us”, I said to Manuel.He
CHAPTER 32 Vincenzo’s POV As soon as Roberta and I got to the top of the cliff like we had seen in the painting, my wolf was on high alert. I pulled her into hiding with me behind a rock as soon as I sensed another presence besides ours. I looked out from above her head to see her cousin, Charlotte. I could not see her face, but I knew it was her because of her hair. It was neatly braided to the back and her dark cloak clung to her back in the absence of any wind to give it the dramatic effect that I knew she was going for. She was surrounded by fifteen hefty guards. I looked around at all the men, assuring myself that I could take them all by myself. The only problem was that one of them could grab Roberta, and that would leave me vulnerable. I looked down at her as she continued to look at Charlotte and the men, totally oblivious of my eyes on her. I had already begun regretting that I had not simply forced her to remain at the palace. “I can’t see the kids”, Roberta whi
CHAPTER 33 ~anonymous pov~ I sucked in a huge amount of air as I sat up and looked around me. I was in a very dimly lit place. I could see traces of female bodies moving up and down the place even in the dim light. I saw one of the figures walking towards me and felt a tingle run through my body. She knelt down on the mat I woke up on and straddled me, pushing me back into a lying down position. I could feel the warmth of her bare center rubbing on my chest. She placed both her hands on my shoulders and began to rub them softly with her tender hands. I leaned back and watched her as she massaged my shoulders, moaning softly the whole time. After a while, I felt something liquid trickle down on my feet . I looked at it and saw that it was another naked woman, pouring oil on my feet and bending down to rub her huge breasts on them. I felt my cock jump in my pants as the both ladies continued their ministrations, moaning softly as they did. Immediately, I felt my pants slide d
CHAPTER 34Roberta’s POVI opened my eyes painfully and winced as I felt a sharp headache shoot across my skull.I tried to sit up but there was so much soreness in almost every part of my body that I simply admitted that staying still was the best option.I shivered at the chill that filled the air as it ran down my spine. I could barely move. All I could do to express myself was blink.I tried clearing my throat, but it hurt to do even that.“You're awake”, I heard a man say.I tried to move my eyes downwards so I could see him, but it was a wasted effort.He walked towards me and stood beside my head on the bed.From a suppressed point of view, I could see his facial features.The sharpness of his jawline was beautiful, and his eyelashes fluttered richly as he stared over me with worry in his eyes.“How do you feel?”, he asked.I wanted to speak and tell him I felt like shit, but the lingering pain inside my throat told me otherwise. He flashed me a small smile. It was heavily dec
CHAPTER 35Elijah's POVI walked around the open room leisurely as I held my dick in my hand, rocking it back and forth.I stopped in front of the giant mirror as I clenched my butt as I rubbed my dick continuously. I threw my head back and closed my eyes.Roberta’s image ran through my head. Not the way she used to look when she was in our territory, getting bullied and tortured by Charlotte everyday.I thought of her pink, plump lips; how they parted when she spoke, how they stretched when she smiled, and what they would look like wrapped around my dick.I moaned as I wanked even faster, feeling my precum begin to grease my cock.I thought of the way her tongue darted out of her mouth to lick the icing off her cupcake.“Oh fuck!”, I moaned as my cum flew out and plastered across the mirror.I panted heavily as my penis began to relax.I placed one hand on the mirror and took my time to organise my breathing before I walked to the bathroom. I got a dry rag and wiped the cum off th
CHAPTER 36Manuel's POV I knew something was up when two days had passed yet neither Vincenzo nor Roberta had returned from their little adventure to the wastelands. I paced around the front yard of the palace, thinking about what the next best course of action would be.I was considering calling aside a few of my most trusted men and rallying them up to go to the wastelands and see what was going on.At the same time, I was thinking of storming Charlotte's territory straight ahead and demanding to know what she had done with our Alpha and Luna, but all those thoughts seemed evasive and far-fetched.“Commander “, someone said behind me.I turned to see one of my men standing there.“What is going on, Diego?”, I asked, standing in front of him.“There's someone at the gates, commander. We think you should see who it is first”, he said.I followed him out to the front of the palace gates where a group of guards had gathered.As I got closer to them, I realised that there was someone
CHAPTER 37Vincenzo’s POV My eyes shot open and all the lights around me took that small opportunity to concentrate themselves on my face and find a way to leave the painful sensations that I felt in my head as I slowly stood up to my feet.I raised up my body slowly, feeling pain grip me in certain areas as I got up off the floor.“What the heck is this?”, I asked, getting up on my own two feet.I squinted my eyes and shielded my face with one hand as I tried to take in the scope of my surroundings. I seemed to be standing on a very bright green piece of land.I stood at the training centre, but the grass in it seemed greener and brighter than it had ever been before then. Something felt different about the place.If places could feel things like people, I would have thought the training arena was just in a good mood.I started hearing grunting and the clanging of weapons from a distance. I decided to walk towards the sound and see whom I ran into. A great part of me was anticipat
CHAPTER 76 Roberta's POV I walked into the courtroom arm in arm with Declan. The guards outside bowed their heads slightly as he walked in, ignoring me completely. I recognized them as some of the newcomers from when I was last in the palace. They had gotten better, good enough to be trusted with the security at Manuel's wedding. They looked straight ahead as I walked past them, paying me no mind at all. I did not blame them for it. My attire was very bulky, and there was even a long veil covering my face as I entered. It served to make sure that nobody saw my face or even knew who I was. As far as everyone in the room was concerned, I was long dead and forgotten. If Declan and I stood any chance of accomplishing what we were there to do, then I had to remain dead to everyone. That was why even though my clothes and m
CHAPTER 75 Natalie's POV I walked down the aisle with a heavy heart, trying my best to keep myself on guard in case of any danger that might have been lingering around in the courtroom, where we had the wedding ceremony. Manuel stood at the end of the aisle, looking at me with admiration in his eyes. His gaze traveled up my body softly and gently with each step I took. I felt my insides melting away as he took his bottom lip into his mouth when his eyes settled on my lips. I stood shakily in front of Manuel. I was very unsure why I felt so nervous around him all of a sudden. He looked dashing in his black jacket as he looked down on me with a small smirk on his face. “You look different “, he mouthed to me. I glared playfully at him, wishing we weren't at our wedding so I could kick him in his shin. I had no
CHAPTER 74Elijah's POVI leaned back on the hammock that was suspended in my room as I threw a grape into my mouth, watching the show in front of me.On my bed, two naked women sat, touching each other sensually and moaning along with it.I squinted my eyes as I watched them, my cock jumping in response.“Aren't you going to join us?”, one of them asked, reaching out to me.I smirked and picked up the glass of wine that was resting on the small table beside me.“No, darling. I just want to watch, for now”, I said, raising the glass to my lips.She giggled naughtily and pressed her lips on the other girl's own.I let out a small sigh as I felt my dick threatening to burst out of my pants. With one big gulp, I finished all the wine that was left in the glass and sat up, looking at them intensely. “Actually, I've changed my mind”, I said, beckoning th
CHAPTER 73Natalie's POV I sat on my seat and brushed my hair gently, staring at my reflection in the mirror.My hair fell softly beside my bosoms. I noticed that it had gotten longer, reaching halfway through to my back.I was supposed to be outside, giving everybody shit about the way I wanted things to look and be at my wedding. Instead, I was in my room, feeling anxious. I was not ready to admit it yet, but I actually liked the idea of marrying Manuel. He made my heart flutter sometimes, in a way that I had never felt before.I faceslammed myself for having such thoughts about Manuel. I could not afford to develop feelings for him. He was supposed to just be an instrument in my rise to the top. Getting attached to him meant messing with my plans.I carefully placed my hairbrush on the wooden dresser beside me and got off the seat.As soon as I circled round to my bed and
CHAPTER 72Manuel's POV I sighed as I sat up on my bed, staring outside the window as the sun danced in the distance.I could hear a few birds chirping in the distance, almost totally covered by the sound of the city beneath waking up.My spirits could not be lower than the way they were that morning.I was to be wed to Natalie later that same day, yet the only thoughts that occupied my mind were of Lucia.I had seen her in my dream two nights before. She was still as beautiful as ever before, and everything felt so real, it was like she never left me to begin with.She didn't say anything the whole time. She just stood there, watching me with pleading eyes.I tried to ask her what was wrong, but she wouldn't say anything. Her desperate and wanting look worried me a lot and I tried to be persistent with asking her what was wrong, but She still refused to answer.I swiftly got off the bed as soon as I heard a soft knock on my door.“Manuel, are you awake?”, Natalie asked lowly, her v
CHAPTER 71 Natalie's POV My eyes flew open as soon as I felt the sun's light attempt to pry through my eyelids. I stared at my ceiling for a while, taking in the whole scenery before me. It was a bright day, and anyone could obviously tell just by looking outside their window. I sat up gently and effortlessly slipped out of my bed, making my way to the balcony. I picked a robe off my nightstand and wrapped it around my sparsely clad body as I walked out to the balcony. The view of the city was visible from where I stood. I could not resist the smile that began to grow on my face as I watched the town move with excitement for my wedding to Manuel the next day. Manuel had wanted for us to spend the night together, but it was a tradition in my family that the bride and the groom must not sleep in the same room for a week before the wedding. I sucked in a deep breath as I felt my body shiver slightly in anticipation. Just the thought that by the next day, I would be married to
CHAPTER 70 Vincenzo’s POV My eyes widened slightly as I watched the gr9an loudly in pain. I could hear the loud snapping of the bones in his arm as it cracked in three different places. “Humphrey “, Darla whispered shakily, getting off her position on the floor and running to his side. “Get away from him!”, I yelled at her, wondering if she was just plain stupid to run back to his side after what he had done to her. Before I could get my words out, he slapped her across the room with his straight hand. My head snapped to him when I heard him growl slowly. I noticed that his eyes had a yellowish looking glow around them, to signify that he was transforming into his wolf, and it seemed like a very painful transformation. There was not a full moon outside, so I could tell that his transformation was not triggered by the lu
CHAPTER 69Vincenzo’s POV I was angry at Tyler.No, anger was an understatement that didn't quite describe how I felt towards him after he declared that he would not help me get my revenge. The way I saw it, I had asked him to join me to be a messenger of justice, and he had turned me down simply because there was nothing in it for him.“Is the food not to your liking?”, Collin asked, looking down at my empty plate as I sat across from him at the dining table with both of my arms crossed.“Why do you ask? Would you even do anything if it isn't?”, I asked sarcastically, looking away from him.I heard him sigh heavily before the sound of his utensils clinking on his ceramic plate resumed. After watching him eat for a few more minutes, I decided to give up the pouty attitude and have some food. I had in fact been starving.Collin and I ate dinner in silence.
CHAPTER 68Declan’s POV My eyes shut open abruptly. It seemed as if I had never slept but instead, I had just blinked.The dim sunlight staggered across my eyelids, touching my eyes but barely leaving a mark.I blinked slowly, looking up at the ceiling as a single ray of sun glazed my vision. I turned my head to the side and saw sweet little Roberta lying down beside me with her mouth slightly agape, and her eyes tightly shut together.Without making a sound or causing any disturbance at all, I snuck my way out of the bed and stood at the other end, looking down at her unconscious figure.I could just kill her in a single move, without even breaking a sweat, and I would get away with it because she was by far the most gullible werewolf I had ever met.Then again, I liked to believe deeply that I was just too crafty with plans and she could never, in her mediocre life, stand a chance against my expertise. I stared down at her as her soft innocent face peered back at me with her tigh
