CHAPTER 7

MANUEL’S POV

I watched as Lucia paced wearily outside Roberta’s room, waiting for her to unlock the door. She had run to her room in tears and locked the door behind her after her walk in the garden with Vincenzo.

I wonder what he said.

Finally, she opened the door and her red, swollen face popped out.

“What happened to you?” Lucia demanded, holding Roberta's face in her small hands. She sniffed and pouted, her eyes a bright pink shade.

“Was it Natalie? I don’t understand who you won’t just tell Alpha…”

“He doesn’t believe me”, she cut her off.

“Oh”, I muttered softly. Lucia pulled her towards herself and hugged her gently.

“I just want to rest”, Roberta said.

Lucia nodded understandingly and stepped back, allowing Roberta to close the door.

As soon as she turned around, I was in front of her.

“Hello birdie”, I sang. My chest tingled at the level of proximity.

“Hey”, she answered wearily. I knew that she was happy to see me, but she was just concerned about her best friend

I giggled childishly at him as I hopped towards where he stood.He stood brightly beside a tree with a big woven basket in his hand. His blonde hair shone brightly under the sun.“Well, I had to be extra careful around the stream”, I answered. He laughed and lent me his hand to help me step down from the rock I climbed.“I brought fresh fruits for our picnic”, he said, holding up the basket. I smiled and walked beside him.“I’m happy that I have you in my life”, I beamed.Suddenly, the air around us changed to a thick dark fog. I felt my throat closing each time I breathed it in.“You don’t deserve anything”, he said in a very sinister yet familiar voice. I gasped when he turned to me and peeled off the face I had been used to.After pulling apart every piece of skin, I was stunned to be standing face to face with Alpha Elij

    CHAPTER 9Charlotte's POVI sat beside the window of my room staring out at the sky. There was a soft breeze and the sky was a clear blue.  A few fluffy white clouds hung about in the air, making the day seem calm.“May I come in?” I heard my maid beckon from the post of my door that was almost completely ajar. I turned my neck to see her and nodded slightly in response.“What is the news from Brandon?”, I demanded impatiently, readjusting my entire body to give her my full attention. She swallowed nervously and looked down. I felt a frown forming on my face. When servants fidget around me, it usually means something went wrong. I couldn't stand for anything to go wrong with my plan to get rid of Roberta.“Some of the spies found his body”, she said shakily. I straightened my back slowly, not taking my eyes off her.“What about Roberta?”, I demanded in a low, deadly tone.“They say she is the one who

    CHAPTER 10ELIJAH’S POVI startled awake when I heard the bell toll.It rang once. Then again, and once more.I gasped and sat up rapidly. It could never be.There are three bell toll announcements in this pack. One toll is to signify a duel between two wolves. This is usually between two males who want the same mate. They fight to the death, defying destiny and letting the strongest and bravest have her.Two tolls are for the death of an elite in the palace.Three tolls, however, signifies the death of the Alpha.My father had died.I hurriedly threw on my robe and stormed out of my room to see for myself. When I got to his room, I saw his body sprawled on his relaxing chair on his balcony.As I approached him, his image became more and more sickening to me. His face was very white and pale. The veins around his head and neck were purple and they seemed like they were going to burst open. His lips looked gray and cracked.He looked weak, which was ironic because he used to be the stro

    CHAPTER 11 VINCENZO’S POV I yawned and stretched as I sat up on my bed. The sharp invasion of daylight meant I had to blink to get my coordinates right. Once I came to, I looked around my room with a slight frown and a line of sweat on my forehead. My left breast hung heavily outside my nightgown and my hair bonnet was beside my feet. Crazy night. As soon as I stood up from the bed, I came face to face with a bouquet of fresh cut flowers. They looked and smelled so wonderful. I smiled widely, thinking to myself that it was a very beautiful thing for Roberta to wake up to. I could hear her just waking up too. I immediately got up and found the card that came with the flowers. I took my pen from my bedside table “Good morning, Sunshine Vincenzo” That's what I wrote on it. I sighed as my smile dropped slightly.

    CHAPTER 12Vincenzo's POV My relationship with Roberta was going very well. She fully trusted my love for her, and it was the most beautiful feeling in the world.We had spent the remainder of the previous night kissing on every pathway, in every corridor, every hall, every room.She had said she wanted to take it slow and I respected her decision, even though her body was telling me entirely different things.Even as we sat at the dining table to eat and her seat was right beside mine, my hand gently gripping her thigh as I watched her eat, I could feel the moist warmth exuding from her centre and it made me want to take her on the table.I was so focused on her that I didn't notice Manuel's absence from the breakfast table. That was until he walked into the dining room and stood at the head of the table.“Oh, Manuel. Where were you?” I asked as soon as I lifted my head

    CHAPTER 13Roberta's POV I stirred from my sleep to see that the room around me was dark. I couldn't believe I slept from the morning until late in the evening. I sat up on the bed and immediately noticed that my foot was done healing. I stood up and looked around for Vincenzo, but I couldn't find him in the room.I saw a lamp lit in the garden and I immediately knew that he was out there. The cold in the air caught up to me and I shivered, wanting to be engulfed in his bulky build.I took the blanket off the bed and wrapped it around myself, heading outside to the garden.As soon as he saw me walking towards him, a smile spread across his face.“You're finally awake”, he said.He stood on a little bridge in the garden that stood over a small, magical stream.When I reached him, he grabbed my waist and pulled me towards himself, pressing my body into his and pro

    CHAPTER 14Vincenzo’s POVI stared at Roberta’s face, stroking her forehead that was folded.After the events at the garden ten days prior, we had been at it in every corner of the house.I could not keep my hands off her, and even if she was still a bit too shy to admit, she could not keep her hands off me either.She cooed like a baby and left her mouth hanging open, causing a warm smile to cut across my face.I felt a flutter in my chest, the same one I hadn’t stopped feeling since our lips first touched. The same one I felt anytime she walked into the room, anytime she looked at me, anytime she touched me. The same flutter I got anytime she…I knew exactly what that flutter was, and I was determined not to run from it.Ever since I marked her in the garden, our mate bond had gotten stronger, and my desire to be with her had become impossible to assuage.“Good morning, Alpha,” Natalie greeted. She stood at my doorstep and looked at me, waiting for me to give her audience.“What is

    CHAPTER 15Charlotte's POVWe had been in Alpha Vincenzo’s territory for all of five minutes, and I decided that I liked it. I wanted it to be my lifestyle. Everything about his palace screamed power, and it only hurt my head to picture Roberta sitting by his side and he called all the shots. I deserved to be the one. I stared round the dining room, where Alpha Vincenzo hosted us for dinner. The table was large and seemed to be carved out of marble. The surface glistened so perfectly, I could see my reflection on it clearly. What I could also see clearly, was how dumb Elijah really was. His jaw was nearly on the floor as he ogled Roberta the entire time. He did it so shamelessly, his eyes leaving her for microseconds only.“How are things going for you, Roberta?”, he asked shamelessly. Roberta glanced at him and looked back at her food, not even bothering to answer. Elijah was so stupid, even a lower like Roberta knew it too. His face turned pink after she ignored him and he hurried

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 71Natalie'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 our 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 on 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 Manuel, a

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

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

You traveled miles in a desert full of men who would have either told the world you were alive, or killed you themselves, and you ended up here. Obviously, I now owe you something for that”, he said, seeming less than pleased.“I'm just trying to pause and recuperate. I have been dealt the wrong side of life lately. How does everyone forget that so quickly?”, I said, my eyes dropping intentionally. Tyler shifted back a little, a look of guilt flashing in his eyes.“I realise that I haven't told you how sad

    CHAPTER 66 Vincenzo’s POV I let out a soft groan as I shifted with uneasiness on my bed. Flashes of the hot, scorching sun I walked through in the wastelands filled my head, alongside images of Roberta's face as her body fell off the cliff a million times over in my head. I gasped and clenched my throat, my body launching upwards as I woke up swiftly. “Dammit”, I cursed, looking around at the vaguely familiar environment. It took me some time to remember that I was at Tyler's pack, and I had traveled quite a distance across an outcast infested desert to get there because I needed his help with something. I got off the bed and walked around the room, taking in the scenery around me. The room was small and cozy, like all the rooms in Tyler's palace. He liked to keep the places he slept in small, easy to scale. Tyle

He had a very annoyed look on his face.I felt like an awful person for asking him to do something like that for me, especially since it was really for Vincenzo, and we were both just trying to explore a new dynamic to our relationship, seeing as he had died.On the other hand, I kept feeling like there was a gigantic, Vincenzo sized hole in my heart, and to fill it, I had to do something that I knew Vincenzo would have wanted me to do.If all the facts Declan had provided me with were true, then Vincenzo would have wanted nothing more than to rip Manuel's head off his neck for the huge betrayal that he went through.I had no reason to doubt a word that Declan had said to me, because he had no reason to lie to me.I could feel that the feelings he had for me were ge
