CHAPTER 80

Charlotte's POV

I paced anxiously outside Declan’s courtroom with my fingernails in my mouth. The day seemed dull and grim, like nothing good was to be expected of it and it irritated me to no small amount.

It was only two days after the huge slaughter that Declan had performed in the capital where Manuel and Natalie were supposed to jace gotten married.

Declan had called a council meeting to talk to the councillors about all the principles and processes surrounding his ascension to the throne.

There was very little that he could say to get them on his side, but ultimately he only needed one person's approval before he could rightly say that the colony was his.

Unfortunately for him, I feared that Councillor Calhoun would not be very open to siding with him after the way her hand his men butcher through the audience at Manuel's wedding.

Calhoun was certainly not going to side with Declan, especially since he was running a whooping thirty minutes late to a meeting that he

    CHAPTER 81Charlotte's POV I walked steadily on the stony pathway that led into the garden, my heels clicking on the floor with each step. The sweet scent of the flowers planted on each side of me caressed my nostrils softly.As I walked further down, I saw a masculine figure with his back turned to me.His jet black hair was tied up and wrapped into a man bun as he carefully trimmed a plant with the shears in his hands.“Declan, you know that the council members are waiting, right?”, I said softly.I was still walking on eggshells around him since it had only been two days since Councillor Calhoun totally embarrassed him in front of all the other councillors. His head turned to the side slightly, like he was trying to look at me without having to turn his entire body.I saw a small smirk form on his face before he turned back to snipping the leaves off his plant.“Charlotte, dear. Ever so punctual”, he scorned before turning around and taking off the gardening gloves that he wore o

    CHAPTER 82Collin's POV I walked into my room and saw my smoking pipe burning away aimlessly. The smoke from it twirled around the room, creating beautiful patterns with the light that peeked in through the window.I sighed and smirked, knowing that someone was already inside my room.“Meredith, darling”, I called slowly, walking towards the bed.I saw her figure jerk up from the bed as she turned to me with a bright smile on her face.“There you are, my brilliant boy”, she beamed, stretching her hands out to receive me.I hurried to her and embraced her closely, taking in as much of the warmth her body had to offer as I could. Her scent was tantalizing and it let off fireworks in my brain.“I have missed you deeply”, I said. My words were muffled into her flesh, but it did not make them any less honest.I felt her hands tracing patterns on my back.After a few long seconds, we released each other from our hug. I looked at her and smiled, feeling overjoyed that she was even there in

    CHAPTER 83Elijah's POV I took a deep breath of the fresh air that lightly perched on my face as I walked beside the lake outside Collin’s palace.It was one of my favourite things about staying in his pack, besides his seven hot sisters who all wanted a taste of me.I smiled as the scent of fresh water crept into my nostrils. It reminded me of a little pond my father used to take me to when I was little. I had wanted to go back there with him one day, before Vincenzo’s ambassadors murdered him in cold blood.I took in a deep breath with my eyes closed, trying to etch the picture of the scenery in my memory.I let out my breath and opened my eyes. It was the most beautiful thing about living in Collin's pack, but I had to get back to the palace before he would start looking for me.I took one last, long look at the lake and the calm aura around it before turning around to head back to that hell hole of a palace. When I got back to my room, I saw Collin waiting outside it for me. Th

    CHAPTER 84Charlotte's POV I walked into the garden where Declan was just standing around and staring at the flowers.His back was turned to me, but from the way he seemed to tense his muscles when I walked in, I knew that he could tell that he was no longer alone in the garden.The clicking of my heels against the gravel that lined the path was not exactly discreet either.I took a deep breath as I made my way to where he was and took my stance behind him.“You know, she always talked about this garden. She said the flowers were the prettiest ones she'd ever seen. She talked about how they smelt and everything”, he said, turning to me.“The way she spoke about them, she made you feel like you had to fuck the damn flowers”, he scoffed, shaking his head.I smirked lightly and looked up at him.“Well, Roberta was quite dramatic about a lot of things. It's what made her weak”, I said.He smirked at me and sighed, shrugging with his eyebrows.“She was fun to have around, though. Too bad

    CHAPTER 85Charlotte's POV I learned not to let my guards follow me to my secret hiding places anymore after I had to put one of them and his brother down because he ran his mouth.It was funny how those men would go through the most intense bodily training just to even stand the chance to be selected as their Luna's guard, yet their minds remained unrefined, so they threw away all their achievements by running their damn mouths.As soon as I got into my room and slammed the door shut, I heaved a sigh of relief, leaning on the door and sliding down.I couldn't believe that I had trusted Declan with my shot at ruling the colony, yet he turned out to be a total douchebag and a psychopath. I did not care for order or the continuity of his reign. I did care, however, that he was not going to have the people on his side with the policies he was going to start and the stupid decisions he was bound to make.The man saw everything and everyone else as a toy, just sitting around in his playg

    CHAPTER 86Charlotte's POV As soon as I stepped out of my closet and back into my bedroom, a huge surprise was waiting for me on my bed. I gasped and paused on my path as soon as I saw the man who sat comfortably at a corner of my bed, crossing his legs and smiling at me.“Elijah?”, I called, still unsure that I was seeing correctly. He smiled and spread his arms, as if to say that it was in fact him.I walked shakily towards the bed, trembling like I had just seen a ghost. Maybe I had.“How is this…how are you here?”, I asked.He smirked and stood up from the bed, walking towards me with the same familiar smile on his face.I gasped sharply as I felt his palm make contact with my skin. I could feel my whole body tense under his firm, yet warm touch. Warm meant that he was alive and there was blood flowing through his body to prove it.“How are you here?”, I asked again, trying to get used to the feel of his touch.He shrugged and let go of my arm.“I know all the routes into this pa

The deep and heavy dark circles around my eyes stood prominently as evidence that I hadn't partaken of the night either.Only a little time had passed since I witnessed Darla get murdered by the man she claimed to love more than she loved me, and since I had also murdered him for it.My days were extremely foggy without her radiating presence around and about me. I did not know how to sit at the table and eat when she was not going to tease me while she dropped off or picked up my plates.I could not walk through the fields without fighting the urge to pluck fresh dandelions for her. On some days, I found myself unable to breathe, and unwilling to.I knew better than to let myself drown in misery. I had an entire pa

    CHAPTER 88Tyler's POV “No”, I breathed out shakily, looking at Vincenzo. His face crumpled in confusion, and I could understand why. He had made a good argument, and what he suggested was not only for his benefit, but for mine, for my pack and for the entire colony at large.However, during my consideration process, I also checked the fact that Vincenzo was not driven by love for the people of his colony, but for revenge and only to get back at the people who hurt him.I knew how maddening the hunger for revenge could be, and with the people by his side, I could not trust that he would not go completely berserk and destroy everything else.We often think that once we've hurt the people who hurt us, the hunger and pain inside would have been fulfilled, but it never is.When people decide to kill for vengeance, the feeling of taking another person's life or rendering people powerless becomes euphoric, and I was not going to help return Vincenzo to his former glory unless I was sure t

    CHAPTER 105Tyler's POV I tried to be as quiet as possible as I walked into the hallway that supposedly led to Charlotte's room.I adjusted my pace and marched slowly every time I came across a group of soldiers who were also marching around at a slow pace.I had managed to beat up a soldier and had taken his uniform as a disguise. My problem was with getting into Charlotte's room, since she was Luna and it was practically out of bounds for anyone to be in her room uninvited.I could still recall the conversation that I had held with Hazel the day before, after I outed her as Charlotte's sat.“Now you're going to tell me, is Roberta still alive?”, I asked and looked at her. Her eyes dashed up at me swiftly before darting away like I was a plague they needed to avoid.I felt my heart rate slow down as she nodded her head gently.“Yes, she is”, she said lowly, avoiding my eyes still.I sighed wearily and stepped away from her again. I stared at her with my eyes bare, letting so many of

    CHAPTER 104Tyler’s POV I walked confidently into Vincenzo’s room as soon as I heard his voice inside announcing that it was okay for me to enter.As I walked in, I noticed that he was just sitting up on his bed, staring into space. His countenance made it seem like the reality of a new day has yet to dawn on him.As I walked in, his eyes followed me lazily from the door until I gently took my seat on one of the sofas in his room. As soon as I seemed to have settled down, Vincenzo looked away from me and back into the endless abyss that he had been staring into before I interfered.“You don't look so well dude”, I joked, trying to lighten the mood. He completely ignored my efforts as he continued to stare into space with no sign of a thought forming in his head.I sighed and nodded as I turned my face away from his own. As I gently dropped my head in embarrassment, I heard him let out a long, heavy sigh beside me.“Look, Tyler, I'm sorry for acting like a dick. I am not mad at you,

    CHAPTER 103Charlotte's POV The crowd remained engulfed in total silence as Stefan's body fell limply to the ground.Declan let out a very loud, eerie yet victorious roar as he looked around the arena where the people sat.He flexed his muscles and yelled non stop, trying to rob his victory into the faces of all those who hoped against it. There was no stunt he did not pull to celebrate the fact that he had beheaded a person with his bare hands, and that he had also managed to put an end to the entire family line.I watched him with irritation on my face as he moved around endlessly. Before Declan even became the Alpha King, he had already begun to clear out entire family trees.I was certain that if he continued to rule steadily for about ten years without having a change of heart, he would singlehandedly orchestrate the end of the werewolf species.Just as the referee was about to walk to the centre and announce that Declan had won the duel, to everyone's excitement, Declan lost hi

    CHAPTER 102Charlotte's POV The training arena was packed to its limit with citizens of the colony.They filled the seats and even more, waiting to watch in hopes that their vicious Alpha King gets beaten to death by a vengeful simpleton.I, like them, wanted to be ambitious enough to hope for that, but I knew that it was practically impossible. The duel, like everything else that involved Declan, was just a dumb display.If I was going to get Declan to fall to his knees in defeat, I was going to have to take matters into my own hands, both literally and figuratively. As I stared into space, the crowd suddenly began to roar wildly with women screaming and children jumping and pointing at the centre of the arena.There stood Stefan. He was not exactly the perfect hero. His muscles were severely underdeveloped. He was not lacking in height, but his bowed legs made it easy to tackle him to the ground, and he was definitely lacking in confidence too.However, he had the right motive, he

    CHAPTER 101Tyler's POV I sighed and dropped my head on the pile of books open in front of me. I had spent a good portion of my day in the library, studying through all the books on mate bonds.I was looking to find any phenomenon where the mate bond still lasts after one mate had died, but I found none.As I felt the coarse brown paper on my face, I worked up the courage to accept what I already knew a while ago.Roberta was still alive, and Vincenzo had still been feeling her bond. I had a little skepticism about it because according to him, the feeling was shaky. Sometimes he could feel her, and other times he could not.However, in one of the books, I saw that werewolf mates going through some kind of emotional trauma could subconsciously lessen their bond with their partner.I believed that to be true because from my conversations with Darla, she sometimes could not feel anything for her mate, even though she was already marked.I sighed sadly and closed my eyes as Darla's pictu

    CHAPTER 100Declan’s POV “I don't appreciate being summoned”, Charlotte called out to me as she walked noisily into my meeting room at the training arena. As I heard the obnoxious clicking of her shoes against the tiles from a mile away, I wondered how she managed to stay as crafty as she was when her shoes kept making all that noise. Her enemies had to hear her coming from a million miles away.“I'm the Alpha King. I can do whatever I want”, I smirked as she closed the door behind her.For the first time since I ascended to my new position, I was truly alone in a room with another person.I watched her glare at me while she walked all the way around the table to stand beside me at its end.“I think we both know now that that is not true”, she said with a hint of satisfaction in her tone.She looked at me with a coy look on her face. Her countenance itself was boastful.

    CHAPTER 99I walked around Hazel, making sure that she did not tremble at my presence. I only wanted to prove to myself that whatever she was saying to me was genuine.“Good, good. He has to kill Elijah, you know. If he doesn't, then this was all for nothing and we will all die if Elijah gets back. You know that, right?”, I said, walking towards my closet.“Of course, Luna. We're not going to mess it up”, she said after me.I smiled slightly and nodded.I turned around and noticed that she was still in the bedroom. She had not followed me into the closet.“Come on in here”, I  called out to her.She did not respond, but immediately the words left my mouth, I could hear her walking towards the closet gently.She reached the door and just stood there quietly, looking at me.I carefully took off the robe that I wore, leaving my bare, naked body out for her to see. I sighed as

I gasped lightly at the proximity between our faces, but then relaxed when my mind began to take note of my environment.“Elijah”, I called wearily, fluttering my eyelashes at him. He moved closer and planted a soft kiss on my lips. I stayed still, enduring the way his horrible morning breath grazed across my nostrils.“How was your sleep?”, he asked sweetly, brushing my hair away from my face gently with the tips of his fingers.I nodded lightly, pursing my lips as I stared at his face.His fingers trailed down to my cheeks and without warning, he pressed them painfully, causing me to wince in pai

    CHAPTER 97I looked on curiously at the man in front of me as he returned my gaze with a great vendetta brewing in his eyes.I was used to getting hateful glances. Everyone I came across usually had one to spare before they moved to kiss my ass. However, he looked at me differently. He stared at me like I had wronged him in the deepest, darkest parts of his soul.“Do I know you from somewhere?”, I asked, tilting my head at him and squinting my eyes, trying to find out if I had ever seen his face before and where.He looked even further annoyed by my question as he clenched his hands into fists beside himself and gritted his teeth, while obviously seething.“You don't even know who I am”, he scoffed, looking back at the crowd of followers beside him.Even though they felt slightly empowered by his display of strength and bravery, the people behind him were too afraid to even shake their heads in his support.I chuckled lightly as I looked at him. I sat upright once again, studying his
