Chapter thirty oneMaeveI couldn't stop thinking about what had happened between Arthur and I the day before. I really didn't want to get involved with him, but he was making things too difficult for me.Him coming into my room during the day when everyone was still outside and anyone could pass by or Alpha Devon could walk into the room at any moment really stressed me out. It was even more worse when he approached me and….I sighed as I placedy hand in my forehead, not wanting to think about it at that moment, or I would stress myself even more. Alpha Devon had already left, because a warrior had come very early to call him. I really didn't know what was going on, but I would find out when I went out. I walked towards the door and pulled it open. It was already after breakfast. I wasn't hungry, so I didn't bother, but I noticed that the number of people that were normally around had reduced. I frowned and walked further into the living room and noticed that it was mostly women a
Chapter thirty two Maeve Arthur had told everyone to return to their normal duties and not to tell anyone outside the alphas what had happened, because that could result in chaos amongst both the people in the pack house and the ones outside. He also said that he would call everyone back later after thinking for a while. As we were leaving, Arthur had asked me to stay back and that he needed to talk to me. I agreed and told Alpha Devon that I'd meet up with him downstairs. I sighed as I watched Arthur, waiting for him to say what he wanted to. I could tell that he was trying his best to look strong in front of everyone, but I could see that he was scared. "I've heard a lot of stories about you from the other Alphas about how gifted you are when it comes to war strategies and that was why I called you to join us. Please help us in anyway that you can, no matter how little it is. Don't think about the times I've been bothering you and just help me…." He rambled on and I looked aro
Chapter 33Arthur povI stared up at the roof of my bedroom, my body was starved of sleep but at the same time I couldn't bring myself to close my eyelids. Why did the rogue king have to be coming now? I thought inwardly with a groan. But then I sat up with a sigh escaping my lips, I could feel my entire body shaking with dread of the future? The future of my pack that I was supposed to protect as the Alpha. As my heart was getting heavier I heard the cracking of a door and my eyes immediately shifted over to the only one that lead into the room has Hazel casually walked in, normally it was hard for me to be focused on her house now but there was so much on my mind I wouldn't have been able to even tell if she was on fire at the moment she walked in. So my eyes went over to the window as it looked at the moon in the sky, so it was going to be replaced by the sun meaning that I would need a good night's rest and when I glanced at the wall clock and it told me the hours left for
Chapter 34Hazel pov I sat on the bed for what felt like I was staring into space and trying to grasp the reality that I was in. Then as my mind had absorbed enough of it like a sponge I grabbed my pillow and we began to punch it furiously. Why don't I ever win?! Since the moment I was born I have been given a head start in life, and yet nothing ever seems to work out for me! Everything I have always seems meaningless and empty, and this marriage was definitely one of those things. "Have you ever thought of finding your own mate?" I repeated my annoying sister's words on my lips, who cares? how is it going to be any better than the alpha of the blood Moon pack? I don't care if the moon goddess takes that is the perfect mate for me I only want the best and not scraps. I kept pushing my pillow until my first actually started to hurt so everything was by my side and lay on the bed tiredly. After a couple of seconds of contemplating if I should go and see my husband I consi
Maeve pov On the account of the incoming battle that was approaching us every day like an unstoppable tsunami the meeting is about how to tackle the Rogue King became more frequent however as well the most secretive so much so that other members of the pack not even know that such a meeting was being arranged unless they were in attendance. I was being frequently invited to this meetings because of my knowledge in battle and my brilliant strategies and I've been working my head for the past days thinking of the best way that we can go around this battle to secure as few casualties as possible and using as little resources as possible. every time that I explain the potential plan I could hear the moments of approval across the room and it made my heart easier, of course I knew that not everybody was cheering for me in that room but that was understandable enough what really bothered me was a certain person that was looking at me. and as my lips moved and partied with each
Meave povI rationalize that showing this man too much emotion might come off even more disturbing than showing nothing at all so I kept a straight face as much as I could, cross to my hands together and then asked him casually what he wanted while going through the documents as if I was arranging them. "Why are you suddenly so serious?" he asked with a slight tone of people in Somers point and then I asked him if what he was holding me here for was not something serious in the first place if it wasn't then I could go on with my business without any problems. just as I was about to pass him he gently held me by my arm and pulled me back insisting that whatever he was about to tell me was indeed serious. Naturally I was skeptical and there was this heart of mine that was still beating foolishly despite the fact that it shouldn't be for a man that was married to my sister nevertheless I waited patiently to hear what he would say next. "I feel like we should be having our own persona
Chapter 37Meave pov I was tapping my feet anxiously against the ground, if there was a way I could escape the situation and I was hoping that the solution would hit me in the face already. but as a casually glanced at the world clock leaning against my chair I knew that the solution was not coming anytime soon or at least not sooner than the person I was expecting and just as the clock struck the door started creaking open and my head snapped it towards his direction as it unveiled Arthur. As always I had to ignore that instant bolts of electricity that short between the two of us the moment we laid eyes on each other after a while it didn't matter how long it was it will run through my entire body like a shivering cold shower and every time it became harder to maintain a straight nonchalant face as if his presence had no effect on me."I'm sorry am I late?" I wish you hadn't come at all, I said inside of my mind but that would be without looking at him I told him that he wasn
Chapter 38Hazel pov I was looking at the clock with annoying is tapping my feet against the ground as I placed around in the bedroom that me and my husband were supposed to share together I moved from one direction to another like someone that had no site and was trying to grapple onto anything that I could but at the same time I was boiling inside of myself because of all this man was putting me through. I literally looked like the woman that he was obsessing over right now and even better than that I was still somehow more beautiful than her and yet I would find myself throwing myself at him and he would not show the slightest flicker of interest in me but it felt like all she had to do was literally breed in his direction and immediately he was running over her like a lovesick fool. finally I could smell his scent and I move my head in that direction be clear all my face never fallen for a single second as I continue to look at him I could see that the smile that was on his fa
Epilogue: A Promise Fulfilled - A Perspective from HazelThree years had swiftly passed since the emotional encounter with my sister Maeve, and life had taken a beautiful turn for Arthur, our twins, and me. The wounds of the past had healed, and our love had blossomed, creating a nurturing environment for our children, Luna and Orion.As the years went by, Arthur and I remained devoted to ensuring that our twins grew up in a home filled with love, respect, and understanding. Despite Orion not having a wolf, we never treated him differently from Luna. We celebrated their uniqueness and individuality, encouraging them to embrace their gifts and strengths wholeheartedly.Luna, with her silver eyes that mirrored her father's, displayed her leadership potential from an early age. She was wise beyond her years, often mediating between other children and solving disputes with a remarkable sense of fairness. Orion, on the other hand, had inherited my resilience and resourcefulness, often find
Maeve's pov sometimes it was strange the way life goes between out when I have been born my parents had yours initially assumed that I was going to be useless because I didn't have a wolf inside of me they thought that I would never be anything worthwhile and in the end of it all they gave all of your attention to my sister my twin sister was given the life that I always wanted and eventually she married the man that I always wanted the person that was my mate I thought that that will be the end for us forever that our relationship with dyed hair and we would never get to be together no matter what I did. now on this beautiful night we were getting officially bonded to be mates forever recognised by the park and I was also officially crowned as his lunar it made me feel so emotional I never thought that this day would never come I thought that it would only remain in my imagination for the rest of my life and then my sister will get everything that I deserved speaking of getting w
Arthur pov I told myself that there was no way I could possibly die here especially when the woman that I was trying so hard for the woman that have sacrificed so much for me will it take for me to come back the actual plan that we made was while the Savage king was out with one of his strongest soldiers to come after me she will be busy friend everybody else that had been increasing by him and it would be a violent takeover she will use her most loyal men that were tired of what the salvage think we're going to make this possible and since he was not allowed to manage it and nobody was expecting the attack. it would happened so smoothly that it will be like a wave that took over the entire place and swept away all the wickedness that I've been involved in it she told me that she had the documents that had all of the faces and the names of the alphas and the loan is that were involved along with incriminating evidence that would have all of them sent into whatever punishment they d
Hazel povby the time that I had woken up I was in an absolutely is wondering what had really happened to me I was trying to post by two pieces of my memories together and the next thing I knew I bumped my nose into a huge one but after a while I realised that there was not a word that has been planted on my bed but whether there was this handsome male figure that was so amazing to the touch and I looked up at him my eyes going wild with shock and surprise as you pull me closer with his hand on my waist and his eyes fixed on mine then he planted a kiss on my lips and wish me good morning. so many thoughts were spiralling through my mind and I wonder which one I was going to attend to first and convert into a question then he was running his fingers through my hair distracting me all the more I recognised him he was that Savage King the one that had to kiss me the first I'm thinking that it was my sister did it come all the way here thinking that I was also my sister as well? sudde
Arthur pov I thought that immediately after I won the final fight I will begin the part of the operation that she told me about but turns out that after winning the fight they were about three days filled with activities that I had to attend to it before I could be giving my final price and to see the truth I had not expected this but I guess I needed to recover if I was going to be finding myself in another 5 years that was also another reason why this opportunity was given to me and I decided not to waste it but it wasn't as if I had a lot of time to rest. I was escorted around all the sales and this time I was actually dressed up in clothes that looked decent and we're not like true love that had been converted into clothes that people were supposedly supposed to wear even though honestly they didn't even look good for rugs anymore I was passing by the cells and then I came to the cell that I was in previously I recognised it by the markings on the wall and more importantly tha
Hazel pov "You can't do this to me you can't do this to me you can-""I'm afraid that we have already done this to you," so it was just a regular morning and I got one of my usual visits from the council members I thought that we would go to the normal routine I will make them and eventually they will give me more time and extend the deadline like they had been doing for some time now but today seems to be very different not only did the alphas call but today also came with some of their healthy looking men and I was surprised wondering what all of this meant however I will soon not too surprised anymore as they began to pack my things out and threw them out of the packhouse. it was like a dream in my eyes you know it indeed was some kind of nightmare because this could not be happening to me of all people all of the servants and the guards that I treated like absolute trash while my husband was away were trying their best to hold the way their laughter as I was being disgraced fr
Mae's pov I invited him to sit next to me with a lump in my throat thinking that he was going to reject it was surprisingly enough he was able to drag his body over to me until we were sitting side-by-side to each other. I wanted to talk about what had happened before when he had been dragged out by way and then beaten up and what he had to say after all of that I could see the pin clearly reflected in his eyes and now I was staring at him.I remember when I first came across this managing my heart had been filled with spite and felt like he had a new kind of regret for everything that happened but after all the fights that he had been going through after all the time that had been by his side decided that it was finally time to forgive him. the man had already suffered enough and I recognise the other person that he had fought as his opponents today as the person that was also his inmate a man has not actually qualified all the way to the finals but when I had begged way to spar
Arthur pov even though it was an incredibly selfish wish of mine I wanted her to be the last thing I saw before I finally passed away I wanted to be able to look into her eyes the one that's reflected of the one of the woman I used to love before and then just at that moment when she will step back into mine. I felt like I will finally find some kind of peace that I had finally been punished enough to make up for all the things that I had not done for the woman I loved when she was still alive. but strangely enough instead of her to be looking at me with some kind of disgust as I was staring at her like that I saw her lips moving and when I followed you them for long enough I realise that she was actually calling out my name somehow that gave me a sudden burst of energy flooded into my body. I grabbed my friend's leg pulling into the ground he had not expected me to do that and so he didn't have a chance to counter attack infact before he could react his back was already to the gr
Arthur pov it was a little ironic that he was asking me the very same question that I wanted to ask myself as I was coming here but now that you had already asked me sit on a chair looking over to me like a king when the only King you was was a king of barbaric wolves that had abandoned their pride and their pack. "I am nothing more than a fighter to her…" I said feeling that it was the most normal answer I could give in this situation he had just thrown the question at me like a slap in the face and I was retracted back not knowing how to react I had to gather myself looking around in a room that was surprisingly filled with different things to get my interest for a while and make it less awkward for my eyes to be wandering around while I was speaking to him. "It is interesting that you say that you are just a fighter to her," he said to me as he payload his chain with the palm of his hand resting one of them on the arm of the chair that he sat on probably in his own eyes h
