Leia - POVVincent had left, and I gave Daisy a subtle glare to indicate that it was time for her to go so I could spend some alone time with Eric. However, Daisy seemed oblivious to my hint and continued to chat with Eric, filling our date with stories of her and Vincent's antics in the office. It was frustrating, considering that she was the one who had pushed me to go on this date in the first place.When we arrived at the Mansion, Daisy finally excused herself and left for her home, knowing full well that I was not pleased with her behavior. "Eric, I'm sorry our date didn't go well," I sighed, disappointed."We can always reschedule," Eric said with a polite smile, but I couldn't help feeling like he was brushing me off."Are you not interested in me?" I asked, sensing a lack of enthusiasm on his part."Why would you say that, Leia?" Eric asked, looking puzzled."Listen, Eric. I've ghosted and dumped many guys who used the same tone as you," I said, crossing my arms and staring a
Leia - POVKai carried Sia's unconscious body and carefully laid her in bed while Xavier, Witch Veronica, and I followed closely behind. The words spoken by Sia stirred a whirlwind of emotions and thoughts in my mind and heart, making it difficult to calm myself down. However, I tried to focus on Sia's well-being instead of breaking down. Veronica utilized her magic to check Sia's health, causing a concerned frown on Kai and Xavier's brows as they witnessed their mother's condition."I should have known," Veronica sighed, and we looked at her inquisitively. "I can't believe I forgot about this." Veronica gently took the book from Sia's tightly gripped hand and again used her magic."This book has brought back Sia's erased memories. She only had fragmented recollections of Nas and never knew why Nas and Leia were exiled from the pack. Reo ensured your mother didn't suffer, thinking she had a chance to stay with him, and Nas robbed her of this opportunity. The betrayal of Nas could hav
Leia - POV"Leia, go to your room. If you don't, I will pick you up myself," Xavier said sternly after asking me to ignore Kai's hurtful words. I don't know why I care about Kai. I hardly know Kai and Xavier, but it sometimes feels like more than a normal bond."Leia, you won't listen," Xavier's voice broke me out of the stupor."Well, Leia, you are having trouble deciding," Veronica interrupted, glancing at the dining room door where Kai had left after arguing with Xavier about not letting me stay around or even keeping me at the job, despite my proficiency."Leia!" Veronica called again, and I stood zoning out while Xavier looked at me with concern."Sorry. What were you saying?" I asked, refocusing my attention."I suggested to Alpha Xavier that he let you go with me to witch land," Veronica said. I blinked at her, puzzled. "The reason is to identify if you have supernatural or human.""I'll come with you," I agreed, and Veronica smirked, pleased by my response."Leia, you are not
Xavier - POV"Enough, ladies. Is this how you behave? You are in an elite group, and yet you lack manners. The four of you are suspended from attending lectures for a week," Jennifer yelled and lectured those girls. Leia's face looked as if she was having trouble with the woman's question."Leia, are you alright?" She merely nodded, but still maintained her distance from me. Though I was not too fond of how she was pulling away, I knew she was grieving and learning about the sorrowful past of her parents.Jennifer walked us through an eerie and cold dark room, and Leia rubbed her fingers to warm them up. "Sorry, this room needs to be kept at a lower temperature as the herbs get spoiled if exposed to heat," Jennifer added.I gave her my jacket to stop her shivering with cold. Leia looked at me and tried to hide her face, but I didn't miss seeing the small blush on her face, which was faint but cute. Leia sat between the circles, and I stood on guard if anything went wrong. I wanted to
Francis - POV My head ached after dealing with the mess and trying to regain investors' trust. With the help of Witch Meena, I manipulated my investors using magic, and they easily gave in to my strategies, finding value where there was none at the moment. "Alpha, everything is under control. What do you have planned next?" Vaz asked, entering my office. "Where is Leia, and how is she doing?" I asked Vaz. He handed me a letter as if he knew I would ask the question. Opening the cryptically written letter, I easily deciphered its meaning: Leia was not with the Blackmoon pack and was traveling with a witch and Alpha Xavier to the witch's land. "Call Witch Meena for me." Vaz nodded his head and left to follow my instructions. Why was Xavier abandoning his pack duties and going to Witch Land with Leia? Could it be that Leia had found her wolf and needed assistance from a witch? Late wolf shifters sometimes required a witch's help during their first shift. "You called for me, Alpha
Leia - POVI had packed my things and stared up at the night sky. The surrounding stillness signaled that it was safe to flee the Pack. Using the drainpipe by my window, I descended. My daily judo and gym training from my days in the human world paid off. I swiftly reached the ground and stealthily walked through the back of the Manor, where, fortunately, no security guards were posted that night. My grip on my backpack tightened as I sprinted toward the forest. My legs wobbled on the uneven terrain riddled with tree roots, causing me to stumble a few times.I was mere feet away from leaving the Blackmoon Pack, and a wave of relief washed over me. However, my moment of respite was cut short by a menacing growl. I spun around to find two wolves: one grey with golden eyes and the other black with green eyes. Their scent and warmth filled the air, causing me to step back as they advanced.Both wolves looked troubled as I watched them, petrified. Suddenly, a series of bone-cracking sounds
Alpha Francis - POV "It seems our plan has worked," Caroline said with a smile as she led Kai to the magic room where Meena awaited the ritual. "Get dressed and take your family out of the pack as per our deal." Caroline nodded, her expression filled with grief as she glanced at Kai. Guilt overwhelmed her for tricking him, but she had no choice. She had agreed to act to lure Kai in, as her father had made deals with rogue wolves who attempted to attack me yesterday but were killed by me, revealing the truth about who paid them to assassinate me and ensure his son became Alpha instead of me.Initially, I planned to eliminate Caroline's family. However, just as I prepared for the assassination, Ana called me, informing me that her spy had discovered that Alpha Xavier and Alpha Kai were both mated to Leia. I was shocked to learn there was more than one fated mate. It was then that I realized I had to take action swiftly. Vaz and Meena assisted me in devising a plan to create a fake magi
Alpha Kai - POVDamn, I should have known Caroline would betray me like this. And while I wished for a chance to avenge Leia's death, I'm aware I wasn't the one who killed Nesser. I never expected Francis, that playboy asshole, to be so manipulative-minded. I underestimated my opponent.I needed to inform Xavier about what transpired, but the council refused any favors from our Pack. They wouldn't even let me speak to Xavier, and I could hear the worry in my brother's voice. I knew Xavier would find a solution, but the problem would remain, even if he freed me from this prison. The problem would remain. Alpha Tiger wouldn't be pleased.Closing my eyes, I pondered how to stop the war between my Pack and the tiger clan. I also needed to find evidence of my innocence and expose Francis as Alpha Nesser's true killer. I distinctly remember waking up in a dark room after being drugged with wolfsbane and finding Alpha Nesser's lifeless body. Thanks to my wolf's warning, I had only killed the
Leia's POVKai's message flashed on my phone, "Where are you?"I quickly typed back, "Can both of you come to my room? We need to discuss something important."Moments later, there was a knock on my door. Kai and Xavier stepped in, their faces etched with concern.Xavier was the first to speak. "You said you wanted to talk. Please don't say you're thinking of leaving us." His voice trembled slightly, betraying his worry.Kai added, "When you mention 'we need to talk' in a message, it's usually not a good sign. It often means someone's ending things." He looked at me with apprehensive eyes.Taking a deep breath, I replied, "First off, both of you, calm down. I have no intention of leaving either of you."Seeing them still anxious, I continued, "There's just something important I need to share."Xavier, trying to mask his relief with a casual tone, inquired, "So, what's it about?"I took a deep breath and presented them with the pregnancy test results. Their eyes went wide as they tried
Leia – POVIt was back to business after returning from a romantic honeymoon with my mates. I headed to the Human realm with Xavier to finalize a crucial deal with another company. Meanwhile, Kai had his hands full at Bluewood Corporation, attempting to rectify the financial mess left behind by Francis, who had embezzled a significant amount from unsuspecting investors. Kai would be stationed in San Francisco for several days while Xavier and I remained in New York to seal our business deal."Leia, have you gotten the agreement for the deal ready?" Xavier inquired, his gaze fixated on mine, searching for affirmation."Yes, it's all set," I responded, carrying the agreement file to the conference room. We were on a tight schedule, and the conference room was waiting. It was time to present the revisions our team had made to the project in line with our client's requirements. The fate of our deal depended on their approval, and I was the one to deliver the presentation."You seem nervou
Author Note: Subsequent chapters delve into BDSM themes. If this is not to your preference, you may wish to skip this chapter. Enjoy your reading!Leia's POVXavier reached for a small remote, and with a click, the bed transformed. It no longer resembled an ordinary bed but one designed for kinks. A soft, eerie red light added an intense aura to the room."Before we begin," Xavier began, holding up a choker delicately designed with bondage rope, "Kai and I crafted this together." I knew that a choker was more than just an accessory; it symbolized respect and submission to a Dom or a master. It felt similar to the brand I wore. I chose to wear it, wanting to display my unwavering respect for Xavier and Kai, my mates who excelled in everything they did.His emerald eyes locked onto mine, a challenge evident in his gaze. "Are you certain you want to proceed, Leia?"Swallowing my nervousness, I met his stare resolutely. "I'm ready, Dom," I whispered.A teasing smirk graced his face, but i
Kai – POV Waking up next to Leia was an indescribable sensation. My heart was buoyed by her presence and a recent encounter in the soul realm with my late father. He had given me sage advice: cherish every moment with Leia and always be there for Xavier. My bond with both Leia and Xavier was irreplaceable. As these thoughts swirled, I gently caressed Leia's cheek. She opened her sleepy eyes, and our lips met in a brief, tender kiss. "Good morning," she murmured. She noticed Xavier's empty spot and added, "He must be at training already." "Seems like it," I replied, climbing out of bed. I had my own training to attend. Staying fit was a priority, and I could feel Leia's gaze as I dressed. "Your eyes are giving you away, Leia," I teased, catching her naughty stare. She blushed, retorting, "Am I that obvious?" Her satin pajamas hinted at her flawless figure, becoming even more evident as she stretched and approached me, wrapping her arms around my waist as I combed my hair. "Do we ha
Leia - POVI woke up with a throbbing headache, surrounded by my mates. It was a breathtaking sight—Xavier and Kai lay beside me, their features bathed in the gentle light of dawn. Their chiseled features and toned muscles glistened under the soft sunlight. It felt like I'd won the lottery having such handsome Alpha mates all to myself. Trying not to gawk, I stroked Kai's and Xavier's hair simultaneously. Suddenly, my hand was gently seized as Xavier's emerald eyes and Kai's rich brown ones fixed on me with intense scrutiny."Good morning," I managed, my face burning with embarrassment.Releasing my wrist, Kai and Xavier leaned in, kissing my cheeks tenderly. Their voices, thick with sleep, murmured their morning greetings. The warmth of their actions filled my heart."You look exhausted. Didn't you sleep well?" Xavier inquired with genuine concern."I believe I connected with Sia last night," I revealed, instantly drawing Kai and Xavier's attention.Kai's voice grew urgent. "What did
Leia–POVToday was the day to fight the candidates and select the kingdom's rightful ruler. I dressed in my fighting attire, ensuring it was flexible enough for quick movements. I checked myself in the mirror and tied my red hair into a ponytail. A wave of excitement coursed through me. It wasn't just my love for fighting that stirred these feelings; Kai's love for combat seemed to rub off on me. And just like Xavier always tweaked things to his vision, I changed the format of this challenge at the very last moment."Are you ready, Your Majesty?" Lily asked as she entered my room.I nodded, following her to the arena. The candidates, dressed in their fighting gear, waited. As I stood at the center, the blare of a horn signaled the start of the duel. Han was my first opponent. He was a Witcher, melding swordplay and magic in his fighting style. Although he tried, his attacks felt slow, especially since I'd trained with Xavier, a swift fighter. I quickly overcame Han, holding my dagger
Leia's POVI woke up feeling fresh, and the voice in my head stopped as I drifted to sleep and rolled out of bed. The door opened to find my mates walking in. Kai was holding the breakfast tray, and Xavier held a dress for me in hand, and I raised an eyebrow at them."Good morning," I muttered, and they smiled in return, saying their greetings and kissing my forehead one by one. "What a special occasion," I asked."You must have breakfast and get ready to meet the new candidates," Xavier said, showing me the gowns and his muscular muscles flexing in a half t-shirt without his intention of showing off. I gulped, seeing his strong arms and the beautiful dress in his hands showing it off."Do you like it?" Xavier asked in a husky purr, and I blushed, as he noticed my eyes trailing his body. Kai scoffs with jealousy at placing the breakfast in front of me, and I chuckle at Kai's fake pout."You stare at me, and I can strip for you." Kai purred."Not here. You guys make me lose my focus."
Leia – POV"I don't believe so, Queen Heather," a voice from the crowd challenged. A woman with brown hair and onyx eyes fixed her gaze on me. "This lady has brought forth a legitimate concern. I'm not pleased with how Queen Heather has ruled. She's stripped many privileges from common witches and those higher up.""You're the only one siding with Luna Leia," Queen Heather retorted, her eyes flashing dangerously at the defiant woman."I stand with her too, Queen Heather," another woman voiced. Slowly, more hands were raised in agreement. Queen Heather looked visibly shaken as the crowd expressed their dissent."Kill them all!" she ordered, but the guards remained unmoved."Didn't you hear me?" Queen Heather shrieked at the guards, but they stood their ground."I apologize, Your Majesty," one guard began, "but when those in power, including the high-ranking witches, revolt against you, we cannot obey your commands." Heather's fury was palpable. She rose into the air, powered by her mag
Leia – POV"Remove her handcuffs. I'd like to hear her side," Queen Heather commanded. At her order, the female guard unlocked my wrists. I retrieved a piece of paper from my pocket, glancing at it for reference."I need to correct the narrative that's been spun by your queen, Heather," I began, meeting her gaze. "The late Queen Veronica made an alteration to her will. She added a clause stating that if the citizens of this realm are dissatisfied with her lineage's rule, I have the authority to step in and nominate a successor." I watched as Heather's face contorted with displeasure. "Jennifer was an influential witch, and she was close to Queen Veronica. Jennifer knew about this clause, and was summoned by the Council of Witches to validate it, providing evidence she possessed. But, when she arrived at the council chamber, five members of the witch council were found dead, and she was falsely accused of the crime. They further tarnished my reputation by claiming I had ordered Jennife
