Emily's POV

I had been allowed to move around freely for a week now, but the guards still followed around but maintained a generous amount of distance which I was grateful for. I didn't want anyone suffocating me with their presence.

The young maid who was about my age whose name I had forgotten and was too embarrassed to ask seemed to be the only one who wanted me here apart from Claire and maybe Alfred the old man.

I hadn't seen him in ages, did he get fired? I couldn't tell what his relationship with the king was.

It was all very confusing and the less information I knew, the better.

I wasn't allowed to go anywhere, although I was allowed to wander through the hallways, the gardens and even the library.

Today I noticed a door I had been so ignorant about and my curiosity drove me into it.

“What is this?” I asked one of the guards who was standing far from me.

“It's a storeroom,” he said with an indifferent expression.

He seemed to have no emotion in his voice at all. He could pas

    Luka’s POVShe had gone in there without my permission, she looked at the damn portraits! It took all the amount of self-control not to rip her into shreds at that very moment, who the hell did she think she was?Sneaking around and going through my stuff like that.As I pulled her roughly, I paid no attention to her resistance whatsoever.I had grown soft on her, it was the only explanation as to why she was acting this way.When we reached in front of my room, I opened the door and pushed her in roughly before following after her. She seemed frozen on the spot for a minute but then her eyes flew wide with panic dancing across them. I let out an annoyed huff under my breath, now what exactly was she so afraid of? She didn't seem afraid of going through my things right?“I am sorry," she said timidly, her voice quiet yet trembling slightly, “It was an accident”. She still hadn't made eye contact or even moved her head to look up at me. The fact that I couldn't get any sort of reaction

    Emily’s POV“I am sorry” I managed to mumble as the king pushed me into his room.Fear took over me as the thought of his request for an heir aligned with the consequences of the action I took threw me into the pits of fear and this fear devoured me.What was he going to do? Was he going to rape me? Torture me until I gave him a son who would carry on his royal lineage and inherit his throne? “It was an accident” I added quickly hoping that it would ease his wrath.“It wasn't an accident Emily, why did you go there? And why the fuck are you lying?” The King demanded with such venom and anger, that it made me cringe and tears were threatening to fall and I struggled to not lose control.“Don't you dare cry!” he hissed out, “If I see you crying, I swear to god…” But at that point, my tears didn't seem to care about his opinion anymore, the floodgates opened and they were flowing uncontrollably like water down a drain because my heart broke at the fact that he knew everything now.

    Emily's POV“Breathe, Emily, breathe” Amelia my werewolf tried to calm me as I paced frantically back and forth in front of the vanity mirror in my room. “Breath, Emily, it's alright” she repeated silently, I could imagine her wearing a comforting smile on her face. I took one deep breath after another trying desperately to calm myself down.Immediately I heard that crashing sound followed by angry screams from the King, I ran. Afraid that he would change his mind and come after me this time.But as the minutes went by I was suddenly wondering if he was okay and if it was the right decision I made.“Just go to bed. Everything will be alright”“You don't know that! He said he was going to punish me!”I snapped at my wolf as if she was the cause of my problem.It was surprising how I slept that night and when I woke up the next day, I almost died from anxiety and I stayed in my room all day.I didn't hear from the King, not even the day that followed. Today I decided to go help out in

    Emily's POVI think Alfred was stunned by my question because he spent what I thought was an eternity staring at me with wide eyes before shaking his head in denial and smiling weakly. “Oh…” He muttered quietly. “The King is in the castle, he's just locked up somewhere, keeping himself busy…”I don't know if it was the way Alfred said that without looking into my eyes or if it was his lack of confidence but something felt wrong with me just imagining the King away from his royal duties for that long. It seemed like a bad idea to keep himself trapped in there as far away as possible, especially when I had a feeling the castle itself could be the next place on the list for his 'busy'. So, despite all logic, I decided to ask.“He has been around the whole time, he didn't go on a trip?” I pressed further, my mind whirring with possibilities as I wondered if Alfred had missed something. Maybe there would be some kind of secret passageway that I hadn't noticed before. Or maybe I was missi

    Emily's POVThe fall didn't come, instead, a pair of hands wrapped themselves securely around my waist, pulling me tightly against their chest. I felt arms encircle my torso, keeping me firmly in place as my head fell against the broad chest in front of me. After regaining my senses, I lifted my head up to meet his gaze which was staring intently at me.I don't know how the soup had managed to survive, and I don't know anything that had happened but it was almost like a miracle.When I stared down at my legs when I felt something warm running down my shin. I knew instantly what happened even before I saw the stain on the floor, the red liquid slowly flowing down under my foot only proved one thing, I had stepped on one of the broken pieces of glass.His gaze traveled down to the pool of blood growing around my feet.His eyebrows pinched together in confusion. “Fuck” I heard him mutter but his breath reeked of alcohol and I am sick of saying I almost leaned in to taste it off his ton

He snarleable d but I was too angry to care. “You don’t know how hard it is to keep myself together without her.”It hadn't been easy. Ever since she left- died, I couldn't imagine how a world without her in it could be anything other than bleak and lonely. I never told anyone this but when you love someone so fiercely there's nothing left of what you once were before them. It all becomes your whole existence.I missed Portia.“She was never yours to begin with,” my Wolf countered.“Damn you!”“We have a mate, we should be focused on her” he growled.“All I want is Portia. Why can't you understand that?” I yelled.“You have a mate!” “Damn her! damn you! damn the goddess” I screamed and threw the nearest object which happened to be a vase at the wall. The gla

    Emily’s POVIt was the most dreadful night of my entire life, I don't think I had ever panicked so much in all of my nineteen years of living. I couldn't focus on anything, every sound and every feeling felt like a thousand needles were stabbing me at once. My heart was beating fast against my chest, and for a second I thought it would jump out of my mouth and fall back into it.It was the night of the gala.Surprisingly, Claire said the king had sent someone over for my makeup.I didn’t know it would take almost forever to make me look pretty, but when I saw what the makeup artist had done, I understood why. “Aren't you going to wear the dress, my dear?”Claire’s voice made me jump as I realized she was standing behind me the whole time.“I am scared,” I told her truthfully, not even trying to hide the emotion in my tone as I turned around and looked at her. “I'm so scared.”“Trust me when I say you'll do just fine” she assured me with a gentle smile.“Now get changed!

    Luka's POVI knew that the green dress would be perfect for her, I just knew. As she walked toward me beside Alfred, for a brief moment my senses left me and my wolf took control admiring its mate.Nothing could prepare me for how that dress clung to her like a second skin and highlighted every trace of curves and hips that I was never aware she had . My gaze lingered on her face for too long more than it should ever have as I tried to process that it was real. The makeup artist did a great job as the makeup Emily wore tonight made her eyes shine with an emotion I hadn’t seen in ages, and I could not place.“We should go, we are running late,” I told her like I wasn't just staring at her.She followed me and the silence that followed through the ride was deafening, as if all the noise from cars and chatter had muted in this instant, and all that was left were our breaths.I could feel her glancing at me from time to time and I almost lost it.

And he never gets to see his child? Why did I lie that the child wasn't his? Currently sitting beside him on the bed, the seer said it was left for him to respond to the antidote or not. I needed more than that, I had been a crying mess for a while and all I wanted was for her to console me, I needed her to tell me that her antidote was going to work and not keep me in suspense. I took his hands into mine “Hey, I need you to wake up please, I am so sorry that I ran away, sorry I said that the child wasn't yours. Maybe when you wake up we will talk this over, because right now, we don’t have time. You need to tell me what to do. Please, wake up!” I cried, as tears poured down my cheeks again. His skin felt cool under my fingers. I felt guilty for hurting him. I should be the one waking up with a broken ar

    Luka's POV I know the child was mine, it didn't make sense why Emily would want to hurt me so bad, was it payback? I couldn't tell. “They plan on attacking us tonight” the seer's voice broke through my thoughts. They are the group of Lycans led by their King and they conceal themselves with masks and dark magic but luckily for you, I have made antidotes that would help against their infected bites. You King Luka will get your allies from the outside world and my people and soldiers will get ready. We will move our women and children to the cave at the mountain top and the women who can fight will volunteer as soldiers as well” she continued, her calm and soothing tone calming the anger boiling in the pit of my stomach. “This new army that we have formed is strong enough to defeat them.” I nodded at her words, knowing she knew what I was thinking. Her eyes were sad but not apologetic or regretful, just sadder, tired. The whole town was thrown into total chaos, children and adults ali

All you did was lie to us Sara!” Carolyn scoffed! “Your name is not even Sara” tears streamed down my face as I sobbed uncontrollably into my pillow. What had I done wrong to deserve the anger of these amazing people? Why do I always mess up good things? Why was Luka here? What brought him hear? “I am sorry, I panicked and got scared. I am sorry Carolyn. I didn't think I was ever going to see him again and I wasn't using anyone please” I pleaded. My voice was shaking from crying so hard. I don't know if I will be able to get out any words from my mouth now without crying. I heard a sigh come from the couch before she spoke again “Sara, I mean Emily, I understand why you panicked, but that doesn't excuse everything else” My heart stopped at the sound of her voice. “Right now you have two men out there to face and the last thing they want

We honestly thought they had gone into extinct until now. They can't be working alone, not after all this time. They had to be working with someone”Even after I had gone back to home from Lancha, those words kept replaying in my head, and I had nothing to say about them.I needed to find out who these special people were working with and why they were doing what they kept doing to our kind.Was there a previous problem before now? I needed to know.Now my sexual life has been suffering since I got back from Lancha.

    Luka’s POV “I apologize for my people's stare, they are not used to seeing people from the outside world” Alpha Luke's voice broke through my thoughts as we were returning back to his home. He wasn't lying, the people's stare bore holes into my back and I could tell that I was not welcome there. They didn't appreciate my presence and they didn't fail to show it. “When was the last time you had someone from the outside?” I randomly asked. I didn't know why I did it and I probably would have regretted it if he noticed but something compelled me to ask. He paused in his trek before answering me “Months, we found a woman in the woods around our land, she was homeless so we gave her a place. “Didn't you think she was a spy or something?” I couldn't help but point out. It felt weird that they allowed some stranger on their land like that. Wasn't I also a stranger? “You should have seen her eyes, she looked too vulnerable. You'll get to meet her today at dinner. I've never seen anyone

The fact that this person had blonde hair or the fact that her smell had just hit me caused me to go through a wave of. Could it be? No! it couldn't right? I didn't realize when I started following the figure but the closer I got the more the smile persisted but there was no sign of any blonde hair anywhere. “Going somewhere?” A female voice called out and I came face-to-face with Princess Carolyn. She had a suspicious look on her face as she eyed me up and down. “Yes,” I answered in a small voice before I turned away. This was my fault for not checking who was around first! But I was so curious, I couldn't help myself. What if I really did find something interesting? Well, maybe. Maybe it's nothing at all. But I know what I had perceived. It had to be Emily. “I mean no, I… I just thought I saw someone there” I managed to answer as I quickly tried my best to regain

    Luka’s POVEverything after the meeting was off. I could barely eat the food that was served.Something was going on and my Wolf felt it, it was howling and fighting inside of me, clawing its way out to take over. The wolf wanted a piece of this, a human would do as well. It was an urge that I tried to ignore. The wolf had always been there when I needed it, but it was only ever there if my life were in danger. But the more I thought about it, the more desperate I became for answers. My wolf was still there, but it wasn’t fighting anymore. It was just sitting there, waiting for me to make the next move. I knew what I had to do. It didn't help that I could smell her everywhere. Her scent lingered driving me more insane than ever before. I took in deep, deep breaths to try to get her scent out of my nose. But every time, all I smelled was her. She was so familiar, yet I hadn’t been able to find a trace of her since it happened. Not a scent nor a memory. Only her presence remained.The

    Luke’s POV“Her blood pressure is very high, she hasn't been resting , her stress level is elevated and she will still be in danger if she continues” the doctor explained. “I don't know what it is but it's obvious she's struggling with the trauma from something in the past and postpartum depression isn’t helping either. It just seems like her mental health isn't getting any better either. I think we should put her on an antidepressant. Maybe a sedative too." The Doctor suggested.“For her long?” I insisted.“Just for today, so she gets to rest and heal. She needs it right now. She'll be fine tomorrow,” The doctor assured me as he walked out of the room and I took his place at the head of my bedside. I stroked her hair gently as tears rolled down her cheeks. She didn't respond but tears fell down her cheek.Who was this woman? What battles was she fighting? What trauma did she hide from us? Why was she afraid? Why didn't she trust us enough to talk about it?The door suddenly opened an

Something I couldn't place my hands on, right from the moment Luke came into my room to call Carolyn.My curiosity was driving me up a wall, so I left baby Luka in his crib for a few hours and ventured out of my room and stared at the stairs where I could smell a strange scent wafting across the room. It was sweet like honey or maybe lemon juice, and it smelled… How was that even possible? it wasn't possible. There was no way it was possible. Maybe it was just a coincidence but I wouldn't lie, a pang of nostalgia drove me into the past where I didn't want to go but needed too much information at once. And if my Wolf was uneasy, who could blame her?I returned to my room and pushed Luka’s crib back and forth gently. The scent got stronger and I had an urge to take a deep breath, a need I didn't want to feel so bad about.I finally decided to go down to the kitchen but the heat from when
