Resting her head in her hands, Charlotte was listening to Liam’s lecture about mate-bond.“If Maddy is a fated mated, then you are also chosen by the Goddess. In the werewolf community, three or four mates can live together easily.I have seen Eric’s affection for Maddy, but his love for you is real. Honestly speaking, I am with you. You and Eric are perfect together, there is no place for Maddy between you two. I will ask Eric to reject her.”Liam dialed Eric’s number with great enthusiasm, but then he remembered Luna’s order.“Luna Lily is very cruel, I am dying with the suspense here.”He proceeded to kick and stomped his feet, acting like an impatient toddler. Charlotte raised her head, her frigid tone alerted him.“I have no idea what to do or what to feel right now. Melinda is totally stranger to me, I have no bad intentions towards her. From what I know about her, this Pack is her home and Eric is her first chance mate. You can’t just ask Eric to reject her, it will be so immat
Although Jason got the latest breaking news from the Pack members, but he spent all night tossing and turning in the bed.His arm was healed quite miraculously, he was certain that it was due to the fresh blood that he drank, probably for the first time in one century.“I can’t sleep.”He tossed the cover aside and came out, jolt of energy surging in his veins made him restless. Roaming in the empty streets, he reached the training ground.“Why isn’t he sleeping?”He saw Mathew practicing in the ground alone, his hard chiseled muscles were drenched in sweat. Jason hid behind a tree and peeped at him, a wave of sympathy washed over him.“Mathew is really a hardworking guy. He is twenty-two and still, he is handling a Pack on his own. Commendable!”He admired the view for a length of time, then a strange thought flashed across his mind.“Mathew is unmated. That’s why he has spare time at night.”For some unknown reason, he felt an unease in his chest, his heart thumped at the picture of
“This is preposterous!”After fighting continuously for twenty-four hours, Alpha Eric realized that it was just a game by Alpha Bryson. He wanted to divert the Council’s attention to his explosive’s deal, and he was successful in it.Boiling at his stealth method, Alpha Eric’s head was spinning, threatening to explode. He stomped his foot on the ground, nearly making a hole.“You should be more careful, Alpha Albus. This problem wasn’t worthy of wasting the Council’s precious time.”He glared at the kneeling Alpha Albus with narrowed eyes, his teeth clenched with fury.“I have presented a letter of war before respected Council members. It has Alpha Bryson’s stamp on it.”Alpha Albus’s voice was trembling, unlike his strong figure. Eric let out a growl of annoyance, he balled his fingers into a fist and drove them away through the wooden table.“Secure the borders, increase your security. This matter will be discussed in the next meeting.”As soon as the meeting ended, the whole lot of
Witnessing that love scene wasn’t a difficult task for Charlotte, but her face burnt when Luna Lily asked her to leave.“I am not dying to stay with your precious son.”She packed her bags, huffing in anger at supersonic speed. She reached the adjacent forest and blew open the Liam’s cabin.“I will stay here from now on.”Liam used his upper portion for the first time, didn’t ask any questions and arranged the room for her.“Don’t go out, sleep here.”Charlotte pointed towards the empty side of the master bed, Liam pondered over it for some time and hopped on.“Thanks, master. Sleeping on the wooden floor is so tough.”His failed attempt of a small talk shunned him completely, rest of the night was spent in the grave silence.At breakfast, Liam made pancakes for his sire, obviously to get some information about the last night.“Eric is back. Did he ask you to leave?”Apparently engrossed in eating, Charlotte’s hand stilled for a moment.“No!”She responded without looking at him. A su
You are so genius, Jay. Can you please help me in my studies?”The same cheerful voice echoed in Jason’s mind, but this time he was in an academy. Different students wearing black and blue cloaks were chattering in their free time carelessly, Jason found himself as a student like them.“It’s so fun to hang out with you, Jay.”A warm hand was placed on his shoulder, he flinched and turned to see the boy haunting his sleep.“Mallon?”An unknown name slipped from his lips.“I will see you in the evening, Jay.”Scene changed, and Jason’s steps began to rush in the deep forest.“Don’t run, Mallon. I can scent you!”His own menacing voice sent shivers down his spine.“Gotcha!”Hiding behind a tree, Mallon’s racing heart disclosed his hide-out. While clutching his neck, Jason extended his fangs and attacked on him, his begging reverberated the whole forest.“You, You are a monster. Don’t do this to me.It hurts. Ahh!”“No!”Jason was jolted awake with a petrifying screech, his chest heaving
As preparing legal papers with the international rules was a lengthy task, Charlotte opened her laptop for work.“What kind of desperate woman I am?”She sighed and stared at the screen mindlessly.“I don’t even want to be with Eric, then why am I bothering about Melinda’s dirty tricks?”Charlotte considered this question so lame.“All praise to my competitive nature!”She shook her head and criticized herself critically.“Your ‘I am the best’ slogan has shown you this day. What was the use of provoking Melinda?She is Eric’s first mate, so definitely their love is deeper than usual. What was I even thinking?”Then Luna Lily’s sudden call alarmed her,“Melinda is certainly cooking something.”She went straight to the main kitchen as instructed, there was some kind of servant’s assemble going on there.“Maddy wants to share her new plan for omegas' work efficiency. Come on in.”Seeing her standing like a pillar at the door, Luna Lily considered it as her hesitation about this household
Drunk by the warmth of her kill, Charlotte leisurely walked towards the Pack gates, where Eric was already waiting for her. She totally ignored his presence and moved past him, but he grasped her arm firmly.“Where were you?”Charlotte took a deep breath and searched for something in her pocket.“Take my card, its last payment slip is your answer.”She waved her credit card before his eyes and slipped it in his pocket. In an attempt to break her wrist free, she jerked her arm, but Eric didn’t even budge.“I am asking you, little one? Where were you?”He sniffed her closely, his silver orbs turned into crimson in a blink of an eye.“You met that bastard?”His voice was so loud, so thunderous, that she couldn’t concentrate on what he just said. A look of great bitterness swept across his face, he pulled her to his chest.Irritation surged up inside her, Charlotte pushed him away with full force.“I am in a good mood, don’t ruin my booze, Alpha.”She placed her hand on her nose as the st
“Vampire Kingdom needs a Queen, Your Majesty. Prince Casper lost his beloved in the battle, and the rejection letter was sent to the Lycan’s Capital.It's our suggestion that please consider an arrange marriage for the Crown Prince.”An old official was kneeling on the ground, reading the report of the Royal Court. His serious voice was resonating in the Throne room, Vampire King Bahman’s face stiffened with worry.“Why I don’t know about this rejection letter?”Casper’s familiar figure declared, entering the room with deliberate strides, cladding a suit and tie. His raven locks and well-built physique set him apart from the other gentlemen.King Bahman’s continued fasting and energy transfer revolutionized Prince Casper’s appearance, his fair countenance had shreds of dim crimson glow now.“You were unconscious when official envoy Elijah Morgan came to receive the letter.So, Your Majesty posted your thumb impression on the documents to complete the rejection.”Old fogey replied resp
Five years later.“Now my girl is looking like a real princess.”Alpha Eric fixed Anna’s white frock and wore a gold chain around her neck, his eyes were filled with fatherly love.“I am hungry.”Little Anna cried out for food; this last-minute dress change was limiting the time of her preparation.“Do you remember your dialogues? Tell me?”Eric took her to the dining hall, where Orion served breakfast quickly.“If I meet the Moon Goddess in my dream, I’ll ask her for food for everyone.”“That’s my princess! Go for the audition and give your best. Your teacher will love it.”He praised her innocent act and fed her cereal gleefully.“Eric!”“Here we go.”Their happy session was ended by a warning hiss, Charlotte stormed out of her room.“Amy dressed Anna as a flower with great effort, she even tailored her outfit overnight. Why did you ruin her hard work?”She placed her hand on her back, walking through the corridors was a strenuous task for her in the seventh month of pregnancy.“I s
As soon as Casper destroyed Ramla’s curing pad, Charlotte’s pain came back in full intensity. She yelped and scratched her nails at the cage. The smell of the burning flesh suddenly overpowered the cocktail of different scents.Finally Eric started to respond to her efforts, his low growls motivated her dying courage. On the other hand, Ramla was struggling to resist those fire arrows, the unending sea of fire was consuming her power rapidly.“What do you think, Ramla? Your measly tricks can defeat the entire coven? The sacrifice of the Ring Fire Coven’s witches wasn’t for nothing.My ancestors are still with me, guiding me on every step. You cannot fight with me alone.”A ring of golden fire surrounded Lisa’s body, she rolled her sleeves and flexed her mark.“I am your sworn enemy and your worst nightmare, Alpha Eric. You signed your death order the day when you burnt my Coven alive.King Casper was just a way to approach you. I used his resources, as it was impossible for to take re
As a puppet, Charlotte received that silver knife with a smile and broke the necklace around her neck obediently. She didn’t even spare a glance at Eric, aimed the weapon towards her neck and locked her gaze with Casper’s dubious one.“Anything for you, Casper.”With that, she slashed her neck, blood gushed out of her wound. An involuntary howl came out of Eric’s mouth. The grim darkness prevailed before his eyes; the weakness of their bond shattered his soul.When he removed Melinda’s mark from his neck, he didn’t feel anything. But now a simple slash on their mark hurt like hell. He couldn’t even scream out his agony. Overwhelmed by helplessness, this torment was beyond his endurance level.On the contrary, the smile on Charlotte’s face was pleasant like winter’s sun. She raised that blade again.“It’s enough, Star.”Casper hastily grasped the blade and threw it away.“The removal of this mark will kill you. You are my beloved. I am not a heartless to hurt you like that.”Satisfied
The rattling of chains and squeaking of the iron tires shattered the eerie silence in the room, maids left quickly as that black cloaked man raised his hand.“The devil!”After seeing his bloodshed in the concert, Charlotte never thought that she would see him like this, but the silver cage behind that tall man paralyzed her for a moment.“Eric!”Her gut-wrenching scream resonated in the whole surrounding. Charlotte shot up to rescue him, but those restraints kept her in place. Eric's Alpha wolf was caged in a silver cage, two sired vampires settled the cage in the chamber and closed the door while leaving.Eric raised his eyes and whimpered, the extent of injury inflicted on him rendered him motionless.“How did you break into the security of the Royal Castle? You...”Charlotte was short of words to speak her mind, her heart pounded against her rib cage like a desperate prisoner, her breath hitched in her throat. That cloaked man stood still for half a day, the silence in the room wa
“My mate has left me.”Holding his head in his hands, Julian was wailing before his house. When he came back home after midnight, only emptiness welcomed him, seeping through his veins.Hearing his cries, the entire colony was gathered around him, the absence of Alpha Eric worsened his condition.“I thought that she forgave me.”Jason and Mathew were the last ones to join the grieving crowd, Mathew sat beside him.“Did she pack all of her stuff and left? And didn’t you mark her? Don’t worry, we will sort this out.”But Julian’s heart rendering tears fueled the fire of loneliness in his heart, his helplessness watered everyone’s eyes.“Ramla wrote a note for you. Read it.”Jason looked for Ramla in the house and came out with a paper. He handed him her last letter, but Julian threw it away.“I have read it. This is a lie. She made an excuse to leave.”Jason glared at his tear-streaked face for a while and counted to ten before bursting out.“After reading her goodbye note, you are cryi
“You didn’t pack my boxers.”Charlotte was balling her fists in the living room, whereas Eric was searching the bag efficiently at last minutes.“I asked you that if you wanted your boxers, but you said no. Why would I pack them?”She replied to him patiently, giving that Madam Lily was witnessing the circus.“Why don’t you ask mom? She knows what do I need in my vanity bag.”“You are not a child, Eric.”Charlotte’s hand flew to her mouth, as she and Madam Lily spoke this sentence simultaneously.“You both are bullying me. Great!”Eric stomped out to get his things from the room, Madam Lily said in a solemn tone.“I was used to do his work, as he was busy with important stuff. I didn’t realize that I was spoiling his habits.Don’t worry. I am his mother. I will straighten him like a line.”They left after the fifteen minutes argument, Madam Lily prayed to the Moon Goddess.“Please bless my children. They are happy after a long time. Please be gentle with them.”As soon as Eric’s car l
After staying alone for twenty-four hours, Noah started to feel ill and exhausted, unfit to perform the additional duty of the head warrior.“I am sick, please accept my one-day leave.”Eric mind-linked Mathew to keep an eye on him. As expected, Noah shifted on the way to his home bolted out towards his sister’s Pack.“He was lovesick, Alpha.”Mathew displayed his white teeth while reporting about the business work in New York, Eric fisted his hair in frustration.“This is not fair, little one.”He threw a heap of sixty files in front of Charlotte and cried out.“You have left all the work to me. I don’t even have time to breathe.”Eric pulled out his white handkerchief and waved it in front of her eyes.“Seize fire now. Get back to work.”Charlotte caught his peace offering and chuckled nervously.“I didn’t mean to give you a hard time. Leave this here, I will handle it. My laptop was bugging me, Sinjin is repairing it.”Eric sighed in relief that his mate was not angry anymore.“Why
Elijah Morgan handed a special message from the Alpha King to Alpha Eric, and commented on Jason, who was making faces at Mathew’s drink.“This vampire reminds me of someone very close to my heart. I am hopeful that he will be with me soon.”That psychopath had a flick of humanity in his cold eyes, Delilah opened a magical portal with a bright smile.“We will invite you to our small party. Just pray for us.”They left with the promise of meeting again, Eric was puzzled at these code wording.“May the Goddess Sanguis bless them with their desired wish. They have helped us a lot.”Charlotte sincerely prayed for that lycan couple’s well-being, Eric shuddered his shoulders and read the official letter.“What?”Charlotte swiftly peeked in and started laughing.“Now who is the good boy of the Alpha King?”“He stated that he is busy with his daughter’s mate problem. We will go on the Casper’s wedding to the King and Queen’s behalf.”Eric’s red face was displaying his control, he had to obey
“A special envoy from the Vampire Kingdom is asking for permission to enter our Pack. What’s your command, Alpha?”Beta Noah was on the border’s duty in the absence of Julian, he mind-linked Eric when he was having breakfast.“Send him in. I am in the dining hall.”.“Greetings, Alpha Eric.”That coffin-faced (dead inside) vampire lord presented a red envelope to Eric, and then spoke respectfully.“Second envelope is for the lady Beta. Where can I see her?”“Mr. Beta can also receive this.”Noah snatched that bag, as he had literally imprisoned Angie after coming back from America. His sister Milly was in the Pack for a rest after giving birth, so Angie’s interaction with others was reduced to nil.“His Majesty has ordered me to hand over this letter personally to lady Beta. Please understand.”Charlotte stared at his stilled pupils and eyed Eric.“Let him meet Angie. He is under the command of his King.”“This is barbaric.”Eric tore down the seal and opened the case.“Same as Alpha
