In the evening,Alice walked into the hallway. She was going to the dungeon to meet her mother and discuss about the royal politics. Allison was the Queen so she knew many people related to politics who could help Alice with this critical situation.Alice went downstairs, she did not forget to close the door. She looked around the cells and the prisoners. They bowed to her as she passed their cells.Alice reached her mother and Abigail's cell.She was stunned. Her mother's cell was empty."Mother?" She called out.There was no one in Allison's cell."Where is my mother?" She roared in anger.The jailor who was overseeing there stopped and bowed to Alice."My Queen.""Where are my mother and others in this cell??""My Queen, King's men took them away. They are not here in the dungeon."Alice was shocked. "What are you saying? Where are they?""We don't know, My Queen."Alice growled at the all the jailor and they knelt to submit."Alice."Alice heard Abigail's voice. She ran to her ce
Xavier was busy in the Blood Moon pack when Ashar came to tell him that he had to leave for the Lycan Kingdom immediately. So he departed from there earlier.He reached the Lycan palace and felt strange. But he shoved aside and called Henry."Where are you both?""Where are you?""Outside.""Come inside. We are in the living hall."Xavier entered and saw the palace. It was a highly decorated ancient castle. He saw Dylan and Henry sitting on the couch. They stood up when they saw him."Bro, are you okay?" Xavier went and hugged Dylan.Henry rolled his eyes. "Drama king just entered the Lycan Palace. What will we do now? You will make this palace into a drama club."Dylan chuckled and patted Xavier's back. "It's good, you came earlier."Xavier moved and smiled. "Where is she?""Who?" Dylan asked."My Luna."Dylan glared at him. Henry broke out into laughter."This man. Ashar is right. He is crazy.""Bro, come on. She is still my innocent Lun-" He paused and glanced at Dylan. Then cont
"Mate"Everyone was stunned. Alice turned to Ella again. She stepped back in fear.Alice looked at the maids who were passing while looking at them."Leave." She ordered.They bowed to her and left the living hall. Alice made her way to Ella. Her body was shaking in fear."Ella"Alice tried to hold her but she stepped back again."Si-Sister."Alice glanced at Xavier who was glaring at Ella."Stop looking at her like that, Xavier. You are scaring her." She scolded Xavier.Dylan watched the whole situation. He grabbed Xavier's arm and took him to the main gate. Henry followed him.Dylan glanced at Alice before going out, Alice nodded at him.Alice turned to Ella. "Ella."Ella hugged Alice. "Sister, he is my mate." She cried.Alice patted her hair. "Relax, Ella. He is not a bad person. He is a good man."Ella shook her head and hugged her tightly."I can't be mated with him. Dave will never accept it."Alice frowned and broke the hug."Ella, listen to me."She wiped Ella's tears. Alice
"Mark her.""I wanted to mark her right then but what is she doing in the palace?""She is Dave's cousin who always handled his official work." Henry described. Xavier's eyes became darkened. "His work? He is not a good man. She works for him?""She is a good woman." Dylan spoke out."How?""She is loyal to your Luna. That means she has some reason too. Find out her reason."Xavier stared at Dylan. "I will see about it."A car stopped in the entrance area of the restaurant. Dylan saw Alice and Ella coming out of the car.They entered the restaurant and the Lycan fighters followed them. They came to Dylan and bowed to him."We did as you told, Alpha."Alice scrutinized their expressions. Dylan nodded at them. "Come back, when I will call you."They nodded their heads.Ella hid behind Alice. Alice patted her hand. "You are showing him that you are weak and fragile which is not true. Just face your fate and try to understand him. You just met him, let him introduce himself to you first.
"Then how can I name this relationship? Who am I to you? Your lover? Boyfriend?Will you be my girlfriend?"Alice could not be more shocked. "Did you just propos-"He kissed her neck. "Hmmm. Will you?""Why did you become like this so suddenly?" She asked shyly. When she was in the Blood Moon, they were developing their relationship yet he was not that romantic. What happened to him suddenly?He hugged her and whispered, "I have always had misconceptions about you yet I still wanted you to stay beside me. But now, I don't want any misunderstanding between us again."She hugged him back. "Thank you, Dylan. I can be your everything, whatever you want." She replied honestly.She felt him kissing her neck. His tongue was wandering around her neck giving her body a shiver. He bit her earlobe and she moaned. "Don't try to seduce me. You don't know what I will do to you. That wedding night is nothing. I want to do many more things which are beyond your imagination."She bit her lower li
"Why didn't you tell me that your mother is alive?"Alice looked at him in horror."Y-You kn-know about it?"Dylan narrowed his eyes."What do you think about me? Who am I?"Alice did not know how to behave at that time. She didn't tell him, did she?How would he get to know about it under the King's security?How?A tear rolled down from her eye. She bit her lip to control her tears. He pulled her head to his chest. "Cry."For the first time, he told her to cry. She could not retain herself and cry in his chest."He took away my mother somewhere. Dylan, please do something. He will kill her."He stroked her hair. His eyes became darker."Why didn't you tell me before? Don't you believe me?"She shook her head and looked up at him."I-I tried. But his men whipped mother's back because of me talking to you. She was already sick. Who knows where he hid her? I am worried for her, Dylan."Dylan looked mad. He was mad at Dave. That man caged his mother. Though she was not his biological m
"I will go back to my realm the day after tomorrow."Alice felt tugged in her heart. Her gaze anguished. Dylan felt her sadness."I am still here. You have to do many things here. Don't waste your time thinking about me. I will be back soon."Alice sighed. After dinner, Xavier took Ella somewhere to talk.Dylan and Alice talked for some time at the table."Dylan""Hmm?""Don't hate my mother. She is not the same as her husband."Dylan did not respond. Alice stared at him. She wanted to go back with him to his pack house. That was her home. "When will it be over, Dylan?" She asked softly."Very soon."Alice nodded and saw her phone ring. She looked at the screen.Dave called her.Dylan gestured to her to take it."Hello?""Where are you?" An angry voice came behind the phone."I came outside with Ella.""With whose permission?""I am coming back. I was not feeling well so I came out.""Come back right now.""I got it."Alice cut the call. She could see Dylan's grim face.He stood up.
"Dylan?"Alice ran to him and hugged him tightly."How did you come here?" She asked and moved slightly.Dylan smiled. "Didn't I ask you for your time? You said yes, didn't you?"Alice was baffled. "But you said date but it's a night time how can we-"She paused and blushed when she realized what he meant."D-Did you send him outside?""You didn't take my words seriously, did you?""I forgot that. I was upset that you are going back. He told me not to go outside his chamber. I can't even reach Ella." Alice lowered her head sadly.Dylan nodded and walked forward. He looked around the chamber.It was a master bedroom with a few luxurious pieces of furniture. There was a terrace attached to the chamber.A little arrangement was there for sitting. Dylan glanced at Alice who looked upset. He took her hand. "Let's sit."Alice felt uncomfortable. "What if he comes back?"Dylan frowned. "Are you afraid of him?"Alice shook her head. "No, but what if he hurt my mom again?"Dylan pulled her w
