Chapter 58
She thought she would never hear her voice again, she thought she was gone forever. Her eyes trace the voice and she sees her coming down with her father and her half sister; but Sheila didn't look so good. She look good of emotion, empty.
Her eyes trace to Loki and there's an unexplainable hatred growing inside of her, her hand touches her abdomen and she desperately hopes she is not pregnant, she wasn't ready for such responsibility.Sheila's eyes light up upon seeing Arcadia, the look on her face was priceless, seeing that her mother had returned to her gave her all sorts of emotions. The satisfaction that she was no longer and orphan washed over her but then again how?She rubs her eyes to make sure she wasn't dreaming, everything in her body ached but when her eyes rested on the magenta eyes that her mother bore, it felt like all the pain had vanished. But the ache in her heart still burned, she might have been afraid that she mighChapter 59The war was over and the south had been taken over my Queen Arcadia, all of her people were proud that their first Queen had successfully conquered a powerful alpha and they were bringing back the slaves they had taken away from them on the day of the death of king Magnus.The journey back was rather slow but it was enjoyable as they made stops to various places as a request from the inhabitants of the land to meet their New Queen. They all hailed her and celebrated her win even at the defeat of their previous king. Most women were proud that their kind could sit on the throne and rule effectively, it was a great boost to their image and they all suddenly wanted to be like Queen Arcadia.And it was only natural for some wolves to have undying loyalty to Mace and not accept their new Queen, they would try to take her down and see how they can snatch their Master away from her. But whichever one that did so much as an attempt, met with a cruel
Chapter 60The night was still young but Octavia was rather tired with everything that had happened, she was Sharing a tent with her husband and when she walked in, she found him nude but covered with the sheets and snacking on some berries.She rolls her eyes, he was trying to seduce her but she was too exhausted to do anything with him."My Queen," he throws the greeting to flatter but she doesn't spare him a glance, "did I do something wrong?" His eyes flash mischief and hers are heavy with fatigue. She takes off her clothes and his eyes are fixed on the slash in her arm, "how did that happen?" She could fell the anger in his voice.But her eyes turn to the mark, and how it happened replays in her head, it was a result of lies. All the lies she told him, his anger, she didn't want to take advantage of him but even he wouldn't have been able to protect her the way he did if he knew who she was."It's nothing." She throws it away and lets he
Chapter 61.They finally arrived at their home and the whole crowd cheers for heir Queen, Mace and his Betas are put in bondage with chains and are made to walk with their heads bowed. They enter the palace in a grand style and their latest victory calls for a celebration,"Father, mother," she addresses her parents, "I wouldn't be who I am today without you, I don't know who I would have even been if I don't have you two by my side." She begins to test up and Sheila sniffs dramatically and leans on Asher while she cries. He rolls his eyes a her and listens to his lover, "I'm proud to be your daughter and I would love to give you a gift for being the most amazing parents on the planet."Everyone delivers a round of applause as Xerxes and Octavia blush like fools, they had never really gotten so much attention since Magnus was always stealing it. But he was dead anyway."We would be proud to receive whatever gift you give to us." She smiles a
Chapter 62"Is there anything I can get you madam?" Azure was a great nurse for Shelia but she was also a hindrance since she never let Sheila out of her sight, and it was very annoying to the assassin."I would love a glass of water." She makes a excuse and Azure runs to fetch it for her, once she was sure she was alone she pushes herself out of bed and into the passage. She watches her back and front to make sure no one saw her sneaking out of her room, she turned her head and saw some maids talking about the execution."And alpha Mace would be out of our lives forever, I'm sure the Queen won't spare his Betas." They gossip like they should but the death of Loki was still something that was haunting her conscience.She places her hand on her stomach, her child would be an orphan.... no. What was she thinking? The child would probably be dead before Loki dies and she can start afresh. She would forget him eventually. Even though she didn't
Chapter 63Night had fallen and the Queen had hard from Azure the attempt to kill the baby made by Sheila, she was beyond frustrated and decided to get out of her bed to have a talk one on one with the assassin. She knocks on Sheila's door and after a few moments it swings open to see a miserable woman hiding in the dark, Sheila squints her eyes to the light and she lets the Queen in.Octavia takes it upon herself to give the room a little light but opening the blinds and lighting candles, and when that was done she turned to Sheila with a hurt look on her face. She knew what this was all about,"My Queen, you—" cut off by a slap to the face, her eyes saw stars as she held her cheek to ease the pain but it still burned her flesh. She was surprised that the Queen would do such to her, "why?" Tears had run down her cheeks."I never knew you were so heartless to the point that you would attack a child." Her words re sharp an
Chapter 64"My hands are cramping." He growls as he fiddled with the chains that we're around his wrists, they had made red circles on them and he was frustrated with his situation, "master, we need to escape from this hell hole." Czar glances to Mace but he was silent with his thoughts burning a hole in his heart,"That's if we survive the execution, we are not going to be alive for much longer." He finally speaks up and his eyes go to Loki, he was backing them sitting in silence, he needed to see Sheila even if it was one last time.He wanted to apologise.But he also wanted to see Mace Alive."Loki?" He calls but he doesn't say anything, not even a nod or anything. Mace does his best to move to his front so he could see his brother, "brother, what is on your mind?" His hazel orbs were digging into his green ones,"I'm thinking of a way to get us out of here, I can't let you die." He looks around the shabby room the
Chapter 65Her people cheer for her and the praises get to her head, she clears her throat and speaks again, "alpha Mace has caused me too much trouble, he came to me with a proposal and he believed that I would agree to marry him because he was powerful!!" She begins to with the back story so everyone would know the Genesis and the revelation of his death."Xerxes, did you talk to her?" Octavia whispers to her husband but he only gives her a glance before turning back to his daughter with his head held high, her heart sinks and she knew he was in support of the execution, "well if they can play the game then so can I." She grunts to herself and her eyes rest on Loki.He catches her gaze on him and he remembers she came to him last night to heal him, she was the woman who came last night to help him. He smelled like her. She says some words with her eyes and he understood stood it clearly due to his nature. He looks at Czar and he was wan
Chapter 66"Arcadia please listen to me for a little while!" She begged her daughter but she didn't slow her pace down, she just sped up and slammed the door to her room behind her. Octavia couldn't run after her with a broken ankle so she decided it was better that she claimed down before she went back to her again.She turned to her husband but even he didn't want to speak to her either, she haves a very heavy sigh and follows him in silence to their room. He leaves the door open for her as she closes it behind her,"Xerxes please, talk to me, say anything." She was desperate but he didn't open his mouth to say a word, another heavy sigh escapes from the Queen's lips and she is forced to deal with the anger of her family. Her decision and judgement were far from wrong, it's just that it hurt the ones close to her.She changes her clothes and goes downstairs to supervise the kingdom while Arcadia and Xerxes brooded in silence.
Chapter 84. He pulls out of her and puts her on her knees, pulling her closer to him, she looks back to see what he was doing, eager to have him in her again. He injects himself into her and she moans loudly at his entrance, her moans get louder when he starts thrusting deep into her, hitting her pleasure spot."Ahhh!! Mace ahhhh!!" She gripped the sheets as he held her hips in place, slamming into her poor cookie and ripping it apart with his vein-y muscle, hard and rough was how he was giving it to her. It was what he always wanted, and her moaning only made his dreams come true, "oh please Mace!! Oh Mace!! Mace!!" Already screaming he pulls her up by her hair so he could kiss her and massage her tits,"You're loving it aren't you? You're so dirty aren't you? My queen," he groans in her ears before he forces her head down to the bed and fucks the living Daylight out of her. She screams in the sheets as her orgasm came over and over again
Chapter 83.This period was especially naughty since the women would be on heat and do their best to find their males with the use of heir pheromone. It was Octavia' s favorite day of the month. It was just mid-day but the preparations were in a full swing, everyone was getting ready to celebrate, every single person had the chance of finding a mate. "I might get lucky with a girl you know." Conan whispers to his brother and Asher mocks him with a laugh, "No offense but I think you're meant to be single all your life." His Savage remark makes Conan's mouth drops to the floor, he had the worst brother ever. Sheila was dressing Loki up in something prestigious, it was a royal attire for the most esteemed soldiers of the kingdom and he looked gorgeous in it. He desperately tries to make his hair smooth but Sheila kept roughening up. "I like it this way." She smiles seductively at him but he didn't like how
Chapter 82"Xerxes, go to Arcadia, apologise to her, I'm recovering already." She does her best to convince him to go speak to his daughter, it had been three days and he had refused to see Arcadia after she defended Mace,"I want to stay with you." The tears choke his voice but she manages to pull him into an embrace, and he sheds tears for the first time in quite a while, "Arcadia has broken me completely." He sobs uncontrollably,"Xerxes, she is your daughter, she would hurt you from time to time. But," she takes a pause, "I have a feeling she is Bewitched."He raises his head in shock, "what?! Charmed??" It sounded do off to him but Octavia had noticed that her daughter was not the same anymore, she nods her head slowly, "could that be why she is defending Mace with her life?""I believe so, she does not even know she is under a spell but it feels like true love. I am weak and it would take me time to break the spell,
Chapter 81"I'm fine mother, it was just a scratch." The morning had come and they had managed to defend themselves against the parasitic demon wolves, Octavia had refused to leave her daughter's side and the excessive doting had gotten on Arcadia's nerves."It is clearly not just a scratch, you could have lost your foot Arcadia!!" She is so worried about her but she didn't see it as a big deal,"Mother please, I'll be fine, Mace is here to take care of me." She points to her new lover who was leaning on the wall, she eyes his carefully, she had observed that she had been getting closer to Mace all of a sudden.It felt too off to her, and what she saw last night was even more unsettling. She came to aid her daughter with her injury and she saw Mace in wolf form, he had the same dark appearance of one of the demon wolves but the only thing he had different was his eyes.She guesses anyone could have that appearance but his
Chapter 80."Loki!!" He runs at the speed of light to find his brother and he sees him trying to pick food for his stomach, he wasn't picking but he was stealing instead. He gives him a hard slap on the back and he chokes on the corn he was eating,"What now?" His is angry and Mace chuckles deeply knowing fully well his brother does not like to be disturbed when eating,"Your charm works!! Arcadia is in love with me!!" He is ecstatic, and the smile on his face is oddly happy,"Well that's a good thing but this happiness of yours is what is confusing me." He chews his corn in low-key suspicion, Mace punches his chest,"It means our plan is working, she can't say no to me or to my touches, I was able to feel her skin and not bleed to death." And Loki chokes on his corn,"You touched her?!" He gets some water and eyes the entrance to make sure none of the cooks saw him stealing food, "it is that potent?" He didn't believ
Chapter 79.Morning came and there had been more news about the demon wolves attacking anyone they see, it had put Arcadia in a difficult position as her people came t her begging for help, seeking protection from their Queen.But everything was amiss.Xerxes and Octavia had gone to investigate the matter and were attacked by a few wolves but made it out as she used her powers to defend the both. It was a side of Octavia he had never seen and she had a lot of explaining to do; majority dating back to her past.She had to set up charms to ward off the demon wolves with the scent of roses which they found offensive, it was the major reason they kept attacking the town as most of the people living in it were of the rose clan."That is the last one." She ties it gently to the biggest tree and she runs the sweat off her brow, she feels dizzy for a while but her husband is behind her to catch her, "thank you so much, it's been a
Chapter 78"Arcadia??" He called out to her but she didn't open her door, he pushes the door open but he notices a weight blocked it from opening fully, he slides himself through the small space and sees his daughter unconscious on the floor, "Arcadia!!" He lifts her up and drops her on the bed, she moans lightly as she struggled with sleep, but alas, it had left her when he carried her,"Father?" She rubs the sleep out of her eyes, "what is the matter?" Blue eyes stare into blue eyes but he was troubled,"I saw you on the floor, I thought something bad had happened to you," he was filled with fear after what Octavia said Sativa told her, "I didn't know you were sleeping.""It is okay, I fell asleep actually," her eyes scan her room but he could see the we're swollen, like she had been crying, "father I have a question?" He nods in approval for her to speak, "what are the qualities of a good Queen?" And this was when self doubt
Chapter 77Octavia is pacing round the room while Xerxes leaned on the wall, they were discussing the matter of the demon wolves and what Sativa had said about Arcadia."I think we would just kill Mace, he is causing too much trouble for my daughter." His suggestion makes her freeze to give him a hard look,"Did you not hear me when I said that the sage said that Mace is her Mate??" She goes off on him but Xerxes rolls his eyes,"Sativa is old, she can always make a mistake and not even know it." He counters and this makes Octavia groan loudly,"I've known Sativa since I was born, she gave me my name as she was an elder, she is blessed by the goddess, she can't make a mistake and travel a great distance to spill nonsense Xerxes!!" She took is personal and this irked him,"I want the best for Arcadia and Mace is not the best!!" He fires back and things went down south, she rubs her temples in frustration,"Are you sayin
Chapter 76Her eyes enlarged to the size of a frog's, "my Queen!! How old are you?!" Her question makes her erupt in laughter, it was so loud that Xerxes heard and when he saw her laughing he felt annoyed. He had been waiting for hours for her and she was having fun with Sheila, he was worried sick that something might have happened to her."I'm not so old!!" She pouts cutely, "I knew your mother, she was....a character...." She remembers the disturbance of a life time she got during her youthful years, Sheila sighed sadly, she missed her mother, "she was opportune to give birth earlier than I did. It's been close to four decades since the war against demon wolves, it has been long and it hasn't been long.""Octavia!!" His tone booms and gives her quite a fright, "I have been worked up since you left!! You didn't take any soldier with you, you just ran out!!""I took Sheila." She is quick to point out to hide her mistake,"Actua
