RACHAEL'S POV I tossed and turned unable to sleep, I reached out to the glass on the bedside table but it was empty, I stood up reluctantly to go get water from the kitchen.As I got to the kitchen I turned the light on, to my surprise, there stood Axel, a mischievous grin on his face, a spoonful of ice cream hovering inches from his lips. Our eyes met, and we both burst into uncontrollable laughter."What are you doing?" I managed to ask between fits of giggles."Indulging in some late night ice cream," Axel replied, his voice filled with amusement. "Want some?"I couldn't resist. I grabbed a spoon from the nearby drawer and joined him, playfully lunging for the bowl of ice cream. Our hands collided, and a friendly battle ensued as we fought over the sweet treat.But Axel's strength overpowered me, and he swiftly collected the bowl from my grasp. I pouted and began to fake cry, hoping to guilt him into giving it back. He immediately regretted his victory, his face turning apologeti
RACHAEL'S POVI took a deep breath, my heart pounding in my chest as I stood outside Davina's office. The words I had overheard Athena uttering to her echoed in my mind, filling me with a mix of anger and desperation. I needed to set things straight, to make Davina understand the truth.Pushing open the heavy wooden door, I found Davina sitting behind her desk, her expression a mixture of surprise and annoyance. "What are you doing here?" she snapped, her voice laced with frustration."I need to talk to you," I pleaded, my voice trembling. "Athena is lying. She said I used her, but that's not true. I never-"Davina interrupted me, her voice sharp and cutting. "Save it. All I ever did was help you, and you betrayed me. I trusted you, and you've proven yourself unworthy."My heart sank as she uttered those words, and I felt a knot forming in my throat. How could she believe Athena's lies so easily? I had to make her understand, to make her see the truth.But before I could even begin to
ALPHA AXEL'S POVThe emergency meeting had been called, and as I entered the grand hall, a sense of anticipation hung in the air. The council members, adorned in their regal attire, sat in a semicircle at the front of the room. I found a seat beside the queen, my mind racing with thoughts of what this could be about.The queen, her expression grave, turned to me. "We have been summoned by the council for a matter of utmost importance," she whispered, her voice laced with concern. "It seems there are rumors circulating about Racheal."My heart skipped a beat. Racheal, my mate, was rumored to be half witch—a forbidden lineage within our pack. The consequences of such a revelation could be dire, not only for Racheal but for our entire pack.Just as the weight of the situation settled upon me, Racheal entered the hall, confusion etched across her face. Her eyes met mine, and I could see the fear mirrored in them. We exchanged a quick, reassuring glance before she took her place beside me
RACHAEL'S POVI sat in the backseat of the taxi, I had no destination in mind, no place to go. I just needed to escape, to run away from the suffocating reality that seemed to be closing in on me."Where to, miss?" the cab driver asked, his voice filled with concern.I wiped away a tear that had escaped my eye and looked at him, my voice trembling. "Just keep driving," I whispered, my words barely audible.As the taxi sped through the city streets, my thoughts consumed me. I couldn't help but dwell on my misfortunes, feeling as though I was cursed with an eternal streak of bad luck. Every little chance I had at happiness seemed to crumble before my eyes, leaving me broken and defeated.The weight of my despair became too much to bear, and I began to sob uncontrollably. The cab driver glanced at me through the rearview mirror, concern etched on his face. "Are you okay, miss?" he asked, his voice filled with genuine worry.I couldn't find the strength to respond, my tears blurring my v
ALPHA AXEL'S POVI walked through the grand halls of the palace, my heart pounding in my chest. The weight of desperation hung heavy on my shoulders as I approached the Queen's chamber. I needed to beg for Rachael's return, to plead my case and convince her to overturn the council's decision. I couldn't bear the thought of losing her.As I entered the chamber, the Queen sat , her presence commanding respect. I bowed before her, my voice trembling with emotion. "Your Majesty, I come before you today to beg for Rachael's return. She is innocent, the sins of her parents at not her fault, please i implore you to reconsider their decision."The Queen regarded me with a mix of sympathy and resignation. "Axel, I understand your pain, but the council has already voted against Rachael. Their decision is final.""But Your Majesty, Rachael is innocent! She has done nothing wrong," I pleaded, my voice cracking with desperation.The Queen sighed, her gaze softening slightly. "I know, Axel. But t
ALPHA AXEL'S POVAs I helped Athena to the guest room in the palace, supporting her weight as she hobbled on her crutches, I couldn't help but feel a pang of sympathy for her. She had dislocated her ankle during our hunt and now she couldn't go home until she recovered. The royal physician had given her crutches to aid her mobility, but it was clear that she was in pain.We finally reached the room, and Athena let out a sigh of relief as she eased herself onto the plush bed. "Thank you for helping me, Axel," she said, her voice filled with gratitude.I smiled at her. "Of course, Athena. I couldn't leave you stranded. Is there anything else I can do for you?"She nodded, a mischievous glint in her eyes. "Actually, I'm quite hungry. Do you think you could call on a maid to bring me some breakfast?""Absolutely," I replied, reaching for the bell on the bedside table. I rang it, and within moments, a maid appeared at the door. "Could you please bring some breakfast for Athena? Whatever sh
RACHAEL'S POVI woke up disoriented in a gorgeously decorated room with soft pink walls. The air smelled faintly of roses, but it was quickly overshadowed by the pain in my thigh as I tried to sit up."Ouch!" I exclaimed, feeling a sharp twinge in my leg. I lifted the duvet, revealing a bandage tightly wound around my injured thigh. "What happened? Why am I hurt?"As the throbbing pain in my head intensified, the memories flooded back. "I remember now. I was in the woods, and a woman shot me with an arrow!" I gasped, my voice filled with a mixture of fear and disbelief.I struggled to my feet and made my way to the locked doors. "Damn, they're locked!" I murmured, frustration seeping into my voice. The windows offered no escape either, as they too were locked shut. Through the glass, I could see the surrounding trees, confirming my suspicions that I was still stranded in the woods.As I paced around the room, my eyes fell upon a framed photograph resting on a nearby dresser. I picked

Athena, sensed the gravity of the situation and gracefully excused herself from the dining hall. Struggling with her crutches, she leaned on me for support, and I steadied her with a gentle touch."Thank you," Athena whispered, her voice filled with gratitude as she slowly made her way out of the room. With a nod, I watched her leave, knowing she understood the weight of the impending discussion.Once Athena had departed, the queen motioned for me to take a seat beside her. As I settled into the chair, the queen's piercing gaze met mine, and I could sense the seriousness in her expression. It was clear that she had something important to say."I know you love Racheal," the queen began, her voice measured and calm. "But you must understand that it is time for you to move on."My heart sa
