Third Person’s P.O.V “How dare you lie to me, Shadow?” A silver whip in Sylvia’s hand landed on the cloaked man’s body, who was kneeling on the floor. He winced in pain as the purity of silver burned his skin, the blood oozing out of the wounds added to the odd stench lingering in the air. Sylvia struck him repeatedly until she was out of breath, she bellowed in fury. “Your report about Helena’s divorce with Zayden was wrong, Shadow. I have given you a simple task and see, that’s how you completed it? By lying?” Sylvia grabbed a bucket of concentrated wolfs-bane liquid and poured it over the cloaked man, his blood-curdling screams resonating in the room. “I have seen her going on a date with a lycan. They are in love, master.” Presumptuous! Sylvia brought out her cell phone and played a video on it. “Meet the Luna of the Moon Howlers Pack, Alpha Xavier.” Helena and Zayden’s couple ran a chill down Shadow’s spine, his defense was weak like his trembling voice.
Helena’s P.O.V. “This one? It’s nothing, love.” Carver’s attempt to hide that wound with his sleeve was fruitless, I caught his wrist and examined it carefully. He quickly withdrew his hand from my hold and clutched his chest. “You were not supposed to see that, love. It’s personal.” The tinge of pain in his amber eyes suggested an entirely different story, he was definitely concealing something from me. I stood up and got closer to take a look, he hid his hand behind his back. This act amplified my curiosity, so I placed my hands on his shoulders and leaned in, staring directly into his deep eyes. “I am allowed to see everything under these clothes, love. Don’t force me to tear them apart!” The challenge asserted by my raised brow excited Carver’s lycan, he growled happily. “So, my little omega is playing with fire. Interesting!” In a jiffy, he cleaned the table with one swipe of his arm and flattened me on it. His warm bath fanned my face as he lifted my leg and pressed his
Helena’s P.O.V.“How is it going to happen, sister? Now you have a boyfriend, how can you spare some time for a lone, yearning lycan?”Skylar simply refused to believe my words, she pointed towards her brother,“You have met my brother just a few months ago and are already ignoring me. What can I do?”She sat on the floor and threw a tantrum, behaving like a spoiled brat. At that moment, I was confused whether my little angels were kids, or she was.Firstly, I nudged my elbow in her darling brother’s rib cage and slipped out of his arms. Carver’s puppy dog eyes clenched my heart, but it wasn’t a good time. Our family needed us, and most importantly, my little angels would be home soon.So, I whispered in his ear.“You are something which can’t be enjoyed in a rush. I want to take my sweet time with you, love.”Carver’s lips stretched in a lovely smile; he kissed the back of my hand. Whereas Skylar pouted and got up from the floor.“I can hear you, sister.”…We sat on the couch to hav
Helena’s P.O.V. There are always different phases of one’s life. We love shopping and partying in our teenage years, it decreases in late twenties and almost dies after having kids. It’s not that our beautiful kids stop us from enjoying our lives; however, sometimes we have to face strange events solely because of them. Like tonight, I was over the moon to go out with my kids and Uncle Desmond, but soon, my happiness turned into jeopardy. “We will go to the toy shop first!” My little lion, Ashton, insisted on buying toys, although he always behaved like a sensible big brother. Taken aback by this sudden change in Ashton’s behavior, Scarlett protested for her right. “I want my candies!” Firstly, it was surprising that my little angels had different choices, and then they were fighting over it too. Unbelievable! Before they could wage a World War three in the car, I suggested hurriedly. “What about we go to the mall? Uncle will take you for toys and we girls will go for candie
Helena’s P.O.V. There was a hushed silence surrounding me when I opened my eyes slowly. The room was dim-lit, but I still needed some time getting used to it. I felt a hand reach for mine, then another upon my forehead, brushing my hair back. “Helena?” The woman called my name. “Water,” I croaked out, desperate to quench my raspy throat. There was scurrying before a cold material was pressed against my lips gently. Glass! I parted my lips gratefully and took in the liquid, finally getting the courage to check my whereabouts. The lights were switched on to aid my vision, Susan’s worried face appeared before my sight. “How are you feeling now?” Her eyes were glassy, I noticed that the skin under her eyes had turned slightly dark, she looked worn out due to lack of sleep. The white walls, expensive decoration pieces, and massive master bed I was lying on suggested that I was in an unfamiliar room. So, I answered her question with my query. “Where am I?” In response, Susan held
Zayden’s P.O.V. “It was the last deal with Blazing Paw Pack, Alpha. Please check it.” Although Beta Alex was on his honeymoon period, he was here, helping me with Alpha Bryson’s dealings with my Moon Howler’s Pack. Our packs had financial and strategic partnerships for over two decades, cutting him off required longer than I anticipated. As for the record, I had sent divorce papers to Alpha Bryson’s mansion after Helena’s abduction incident, instead of sending them after completing this process. It was my intention to kick out every single supporter of the Blazing Paw Pack from my homeland, thus ensuring a safe future for my family. However, it was so long after my first meeting with Helena, and still, these defense deals were nowhere to be ended. That was the height of my dad’s trust in Alpha Bryson! I opened the file half-heartedly, as this deal could be the start of infinite small legal promises of trade. But a smile crept up my face to see some simple penalty money to break
Helena’s P.O.V“Stop it!”The horrendous scene unfolding in front of my eyes made me screech, I was barely able to breathe after all that walking. As Beta Ralph informed me about Alpha Gladwin’s visit, a glimmer of hope lit up my world, I begged Susan to go there. She did try to teleport me through her magic, but she coughed up blood on her way. After dropping me at the end of the corridor, she instructed.“Walk straight. Double doors on the other end, is the entrance of the throne room.”I staggered towards my destination, as the decree of my divorce, Zayden’s death wish, and intense growls accelerated my feet. I collapsed on the ground after making it to the room.Alpha Gladwin was the first one to respond, he embraced me in a warm hug before my head could bump on the floor. I thanked him sincerely.“I’m sure that you’ll never let me fall, Alpha.I’m glad to be your little Helly.”Alpha Gladwin and his Luna were the two other names of the Moon Goddess for us in childhood.
Helena’s P.O.V. “Do you know the name of that ungrateful king?” The reaction of King Edgar in response to this query was still fresh in my mind even after coming back to my room. His aghast expression was a guilty pleasure. But as soon as the duty maids left me alone, I hid my face in the pillow and burst into tears. The brave Helena was gone, only a young little Helly was left in that ocean of tears, who missed her dad dearly. “Where’s our dad, mom?” “Why do people call us orphans?” Between our brother-sister duo, I was the first one to notice that a father was missing in our family. Like Zayden had his mom and Alpha Gladwin, like other omegas working at the pack house had two parents. I remembered that it was our fifth birthday when we insisted on knowing the truth, so mom told us. “Your dad died in a car crash, my little angels. He’ll never come back.” So according to the myth of our dead relatives turning into a star, Liam and I selected a star in the sky and s
