Alpha Joe's POV:

Lilian was about to get up from the bed to check who was at the door, but I motioned for her to stay back. I didn't want my princess to feel stressed. I got up, put on my dress, and went to see who had come. Since Lilian was with me, I couldn't just yell for them to come in, so I decided to check myself.

I opened the door, and there stood a royal guard. I recognized him immediately; he was one of the king's personal guards. Why was he here? I stared at him with furrowed brows, urging him to speak.

"Good day, my Prince," he said.

"Is there a problem?" I asked hastily instead of just replying to his greeting. I was in no mood for pleasantries right now; I needed to take a nap for a while, anyone trying to deprive me of that as he was, was considered an enemy.

"The king, your father, asked me to come and remind you of the special royal dinner taking place tonight."

"Oh Shit!" I smacked my hand on my head, it was actually today. I had completely forgotten. I nodded to him

    Lilith's POVIt was just the two of us who had come. We arrived a little bit earlier than the normal opening time of the bar. I didn't know about him, but my reason for always coming early these days was because of him. I wanted to have a few minutes to spend alone with just him before others arrived."Hey beautiful," he said as I reached the counter where he stood. I blushed at his words. He always had a way of making me feel special. He was too good with words. If I didn't know any better, I would think he was a womanizer.Well, technically, women threw themselves at him. I have seen both our co-workers and even customers come up to him and tell him they fancy him, but he always had a way of turning them down politely. He even told one gorgeous customer who pestered him that he had a girlfriend."That must be it," I thought. I felt a little bit jealous when I heard him say that, but that singular act of his made my respect level for him shoot through the roof. Not only was he extrem

    Alpha Joe's POVI consoled Lilian for a while until she eventually fell asleep in my arms. A few moments later, the royal physician came back with a bottle of herbs he had mixed for her."This would help with the fever, my Prince," he said softly."Do I need to wake her up or just wait till she wakes before giving it to her?" I wanted to know what to do."I am afraid we need to wake her up, my prince. The drug has a calming effect and would eventually make her sleep as I added a little sleeping potion into it," he replied as he held out his hand, showing me the bottle. I couldn't take it from him, so I motioned for him to drop it on the table beside the bed. He did, then bowed and turned around to leave."Where are you going?" I asked, stopping him in his tracks. He turned around, a look of confusion etched all over his face. My brows furrowed at the sight."Aren't you going to give instructions on how the herbal medicine will be taken?" I quizzed. Was I the one who was supposed to te

It has already killed 6 people, with a few others currently quarantining as they have caught the illness too.""That is so pathetic," I replied, thinking of what could actually be the cause of this plague.I looked at my father; he was tapping his finger on the arm of the chair where his hand rested. His forehead was creased, his jaws clenched. He looked deep in thought."When do I leave, father?" I inquired, interfering with his thoughts as he immediately looked at me blankly for a moment. When what I had said registered, he replied, "as soon as you can, son.""Alright Father, I will leave tomorrow morning." He nodded his head in response and reached for the bottle I had seen him drinking the other time, opened it, and drank its content in one gulp."Are you unwell, father?" I asked.He looked at me, and the corner of his mouth spasmed a bit before turn

    Alicia's POVI looked around, and there was no one else but the two of them. I was scared of what might happen if they decided to fight me; I cannot fight against them. Two against one, that wouldn't be a fair fight. I remembered each of them getting physical with me once. I had been slapped across the face."Why do you look scared, Sweetheart?" Sophia asked as a wicked smile spread across her face."I am not scared of you!" I spat, wondering where my newfound boldness came from."She said she is not scared," Seline said, throwing a glance at Sophia, who returned the glance before staring at me in disdain."Well, how about now?" Seline asked as she charged at me, pushed me to the ground, and grabbed my hair. I felt excruciating pain; my wolf begged to come out, but I suppressed it; I didn't want trouble. She already wasn't capable of healing herself; what if I shifted, and the others decide to shift too and scar me badly? What then would become of me? I thought."Leave me alone! What

    Lilith's POV:I looked at the actress who stood before me; her face and voice were a complete contrast. I was the only one who could see her face as Adrian's back was turned to her. She sneered wickedly, and a sinister smile registered on her face. I didn't want to have further issues with her, so I replied."I fell down on my way to work.""Oh, I am so sorry," she replied, coming into Adrian's view. Sophia had also joined her, and they both acted nice and kind. I couldn't believe what was happening in front of me - how could the same person responsible for what happened to me now start pretending to care about me?"Come with me," she said gently, pulling me by the hand. I looked at Adrian with pleading eyes. He immediately placed his hand on hers that was holding me."Stop, she's not going anywhere with you," he growled. She looked at him and smiled, saying, "Don't worry, Adrian. I only want to help her," as a smile crept across her face.With raised brows, Adrian asked, "Oh really?

    Alpha Joe's POV:I was astounded. Did he really say it was because of a woman? Did I hear correctly? I needed to ask again to be sure."You said it's all because of a woman?" I quizzed."You heard right, Joe. This is all a woman's doing," he said through gritted teeth, clearly angry at this woman, whoever she was.Curiosity got the better of me, and I asked, "What exactly happened, Nicholas?"He took a deep breath and exhaled, "It all started a few weeks ago when a sorceress was apprehended in the midst of our pack." He looked at his father and continued, "It's an abiding law in our land that sorcerers are not welcome here, and if found, they will be burnt at the stake."I nodded, urging him to continue. The law in their land wasn't news to me; my father had once told me about it. However, in our lands, sorcerers were welcomed as long as they didn't cause any trouble. I also learned that it was a sorceress who had revealed my mother's dubious act to my father, which prevented him from

    Alpha Joe's POVI returned to Starfalls and headed straight to the courtroom to convey the message to my father. However, he wasn't present there, so I proceeded to his chambers."Your Majesty, the Crown Prince is here," his guard announced."Allow him in," my father replied. I entered, finding him on the bed, attempting to rise and sit."Welcome, my son," he greeted. I responded and moved to assist him in getting off the bed."I'm growing old," he playfully teased, placing his hand on my shoulder. I guided him to the sofa, where he settled down.Sitting across from him, I recounted everything that transpired at Silver Moon pack. After concluding, I sighed, deep in thought."You do have a way of making bold claims, my son," he eventually remarked.Arching an eyebrow, he inquired, "You actually informed them that we could assist them?""Yes, Father. I believe we can provide assistance," I responded matter-of-factly."Hmm, you're truly living up to your title already," he praised, stand

Adrian erupted into hearty laughter."I apologize," he chuckled, "there's only so far a joke can go." He teased, his eyes meeting mine again before he tried to control his laughter by placing a hand over his mouth.He didn't believe me. I believed I'd been caught. I assumed he'd readily believe my words given my previous actions and his reactions to them. Just after he'd mentioned my strange behavior and implied I was concealing something, I confessed the truth, and yet he dismissed it with laughter, tagging it as a joke?Deciding to play along, I thought luck must be on my side today. I sighed, "You got me." I raised my gaze to meet his, "Can't blame a girl for indulging in a little daydream.""Yeah, unless that daydream involves wanting to be mated to the crown prince who, I must remind you, is already mated to another,"

    Lilith's POV Prince Leo came to inform me that the king had summoned us. I was in the middle of breastfeeding little Sam at the time, so he kindly told me to continue and join them in the courtroom once I was finished. Leo planted a gentle kiss on my forehead and then bent down to kiss little Sam, who was busily suckling on my right breast, before he left. He was an incredibly kind and caring man. Sometimes, I couldn't help but wonder what I had done to be blessed by the moon goddess with such a wonderful partner. I felt entirely at peace with my decision to marry him. After feeding little Sam, who was the last to be nursed since my other babies had already been breastfed, I carefully dressed and made my way to the courtroom. Leo had emphasized that the matter was of utmost urgency, leaving me curious about what it could be. As I reached the door to the courtroom, I felt an inexplicable pull, a strong force drawing me in. It compelled me to step inside. A few steps in, I turned tow

    Alpha Joe's POV As I pondered my next words, doubt and uncertainty swirled within me. Should I disclose Lilith's identity and risk potential complications with the Frostwood pack? Or should I come up with an alternative reason for our visit, giving me time to secretly reunite with Lilith? It was a difficult decision to make. In the end, I chose the latter approach. I decided to act as if I had come for a different purpose, allowing me the opportunity to spend some time in the palace and secretly plan Lilith's return with the members of my pack who had accompanied me on this journey. After much contemplation, I realized that concealing the truth could lead to a potentially devastating conflict between Starfalls pack and Frostwood pack, something I couldn't afford. The risk of war was too great. So, I made the difficult choice to speak the truth, hoping that we could resolve the situation peacefully. Inwardly, I considered the possibility that Lilith might be working within the palac

    Alpha Joe's POV I turned to him and took a deep breath. "This morning, the Stargazers visited the courtroom to deliver news to my father and me," I began. His brows furrowed, showing his heightened interest. "Lilith is no longer within the boundaries of Starfalls pack," I revealed. His mouth dropped open, and his eyes widened in shock. "Wait, I'm a bit confused. How did the Stargazers come to know this? Did they go searching for her?" he asked, his curiosity evident. His questions were understandable, and anyone would wonder the same. After all, the Stargazers were known for studying stars, so their news typically had a celestial connection. "They are Stargazers, Adrian," I replied calmly. "Their duty is to observe the stars and report significant findings to the Alpha King," I explained. "As they conducted their observations, they noticed the sudden disappearance of four stars that symbolized protection over our pack. These four stars represented Lilith's four young children."

    Alpha Joe's POV Their eyes darted between one another and then focused on me. Austria, their leader, cleared his throat before speaking, "My Prince, we have an urgent matter to discuss. While studying the stars, we observed the disappearance of four crucial stars from the sky." He exchanged glances with his colleagues before continuing, "These four stars hold immense significance for the Starfalls pack. Their absence foretells impending danger, and if they are not returned to their rightful place here within our pack, the doom of Starfalls Pack is inevitable." Austria's words left me perplexed. He had spoken in riddles, expecting me to decipher their meaning. What did these four stars symbolize? I needed a clear explanation to understand the gravity of the situation. "I apologize, Austria, but your words seem rather cryptic," I remarked, fixing my gaze on him. Austria turned to my father, who nodded in agreement. "My Prince, I believe you are aware of the situation. The woman you

    Lilith's POV I watched as an incredibly beautiful woman walked in. She stood about 5'9" tall, with silver hair and captivating ocean-blue eyes. She looked stunning, like a goddess. Is this the woman Prince Leo is married to? I was completely astonished. A quick glance at the people I had come with showed that they were equally awestruck. I composed myself as she approached Prince Leo, hugged him, and planted a kiss on his cheek. She respectfully bowed to the King and Queen before turning her attention towards me with a warm smile. I swallowed hard as she drew nearer. Her eyes remained fixed on my face, and her smile never wavered. She took my hands in hers, and the entire room's attention shifted to us, eagerly watching to see what would unfold. "I've heard so much about you from the prince, Lilith. You look absolutely stunning, far more beautiful than I could have imagined. It's truly wonderful to finally meet my co-wife," she exclaimed, pulling me into a tight embrace. My eyes wi

    Lilith's POV I glanced at everyone, and they all appeared as apprehensive as I felt, except for Prince Leo. His calm demeanor didn't surprise me; this was his home, after all, and he was about to see his father, the king, again. He probably saw him before leaving the house in the morning, so he had become accustomed to it. "Usher them in," a deep male voice resonated from within the courtroom, sending shivers down my spine. Prince Leo held my hand with his free one and whispered, "Don't be scared, my father doesn't bite," he chuckled. I took a deep breath and walked beside Prince Leo, with Sam, Robert, and Clara following closely behind us. As I gazed at the throne, I saw the king seated majestically. He commanded a substantial presence without the need to stand up. He appeared astute and imposing, in stark contrast to Leo. Yet, there was something remarkable about him, a shared trait with Leo: his kind green eyes. I surmised that Leo probably took after his mother in terms of loo

    Lilith's POV The next day arrived, and I had barely slept a wink the previous night due to my anxiety. Today, I was scheduled to meet the members of the royal family. I couldn't help but wonder about their perception of me. Would they accept me with open hearts? Or would they merely pretend to like me? I remembered the Prince mentioning yesterday that they were looking forward to meeting me. Personally, I suspected he might have played a significant role in their expectations. He probably convinced them of his fondness for me, leaving them with no choice but to go along with it and feign affection for an omega wolf they had never met before. I couldn't quite understand why, but being in the lowest rank among the werewolves always carried a certain stigma for me. This feeling was compounded by the fact that I had grown up in a home and pack where I longed for love from the people who mattered most. Life had been undeniably challenging until I met Joseph and Adrian in Starfalls Pack

    Lilith's POV He gently brushed his fingers across my face, tucking a stray lock of hair behind my ear. "You are breathtakingly beautiful, unquestionably the most radiant young lady I've ever had the pleasure of seeing," he said, a sensuous smile gracing his lips. His smile made him even more handsome, and I felt my cheeks flush at his compliment. "Let's go and share our decision with Sam and Robert," he suggested, taking my hand and leading me back toward the house. When we arrived, Sam was outside, hard at work cutting firewood. He looked sweaty and exhausted in the sunlight. Spotting us, he wiped his brow with a nearby cloth and came over. "My Prince, you're both back," Sam greeted with a playful nudge to the prince's shoulder. The prince smiled and replied, "Yes, we're back, and I have something important I need to discuss with you and your father." Sam's expression shifted to one of surprise as he briefly glanced at me, and then he looked away. I avoided making eye contact wi

    Lilith's POV The prince and I were scheduled to have a meeting later today. He had mentioned that there was something important he needed to discuss with me. He emphasized that the outcome of our conversation would decide whether he'd meet with Robert and Sam for a follow-up discussion. I had no idea what he wanted to talk about, and honestly, I didn't care. I was willing to do anything to spend some precious moments alone with him. As the time for our meeting approached, he arrived and led me to the garden, our customary meeting spot. "Lilith, there's something important I need to share with you." I listened intently, my eyes fixed on his handsome face, trying to read his somewhat solemn expression. "We've been spending time together for a while now, and I'd be dishonest if I told you the only reason was to be friends," he said, shifting his gaze to meet mine. "It's more than that, Lilith. I want us to be more than friends; I'm deeply drawn to you." My eyes widened in astonishmen
