As a Higanbana Warrior, Artemis should never have had a mate. Why? Because she was meant to live for war and protect the entire werewolf community. She was getting the hang of it until her Missing in Action best friend, Eliot walked his way onto her and realized he was her mate. The problem was, he was a human. She was ready to turn her back on everything she had, including what she was when Zero, the second prince decided to interfere with her plan. Their fates intertwined and rolled in… One, destined to destroy her, and the other destined to fix her. In a life that was full of malice and lies and betrayal. Artemis must choose, will she choose Eliot, her one and true mate, or Zero, who claimed her as his mate…

If anything, I cannot wait for the next chapter of my life to begin here.“I like this place,” I told Zero. “I think this place will be- hey. Are you listening?” The entire trip was so quiet. Zero has become so quiet and I wonder why. “What’s wrong? Is there any problem?” I asked. “N-nothing. It’s just that I’m tired,” he replied, smiling. “You should have told me,” I said.“Na,” he shook his head. “We need this for our future,” he added, which made me smile."Really excited for all of this," I mention, turning to Flynn as we stand at the top of the stairs towards our new house in the most famous building that overlooks the fresh green grass and tree. "Two months away before the wedding. "Two months," Zero agrees, a smile upon his face as his mother is at the end of the stairs, capturing pictures of
Hera’s Point of View“You’re a damn abomination!” My brother Alexi screamed at me. Today, I tried hard to fight him, but he was too strong for me to fight even if I’m half-wolf.I was beaten to death. My family hated me, even the hunters.I was gagged and tied up with my arms behind my back. My heart began to pound frantically in my chest at the loss of free movement. This was a whole new level of torture. I used all my strength and freed myself. Just when I thought I had finally escaped, something hit my head and consciousness split from me.I opened my eyes and cautiously looked around. I was still in the forest, although it was almost dawn judging by the light of the sky. I must have been out for hours. I was not alone, but I could not see my brother and I was not sure whether that realization relieved or upset me.I focused on the five people nearby me. I had never seen any of them before in my life.They were clearly large and strong and they moved like fighters. Then there was m
Eliot's Point of ViewA week ago…a week already passed since Artemis completely destroyed me. One week and the pain has completely eaten me alive. I could have killed her if I wanted to but I can’t. I love her. I love her so much.“Captain, you’ve been silent for a week. What happened?” my junior, my second hand asks me when he sits besides me.I looked at him and smiled. “It's nothing,” I replied.Mateo smiled at me. “Doesn’t look like it's nothing, Captain,” he said. I heaved a sigh. “Well, uhh I was dumped by a woman I have loved since we were kids,” I said. “She, a… she rejected me or whatever you call it. She said she had already fallen in love with someone else.”Tears fell from my eyes. The pain is too unbearable. How could someone fall in love so deep and when dumped hurts like hell?I didn't make a single sound, and Mateo probably knew how much I was hurting. My back moved up and down, and I knew that crying was the only way for me to ease the pain. I lifted my head to t
I should have rejected him before I slept with Zero last night. Why? Because I had forgotten that when you have sex with anyone not your mate, you feel pain. I put Eliot through pain last night and he has no idea how it happened. I have to reject him. It's not fair. It's not justified. I have to hold myself to the account that I will not be with Zero again that intimate until I reject Eliot.As I grab the sheets from the washer, my eyes widen. I gasp, dropping the blankets as I fall to the floor, a sharp pain in my stomach as I cry out in pain. My eyes squeeze shut, my muscles cramping as I roll onto my side. What a coincidence. What an irony.I have to reject him. I have to not only for him, but for me. For this pain. This pain will go away.I grab my phone, knowing he won't see my text for a while. Unlocking it, my fingers ache as I type away, sending the text to Eliot that should have been sent a long time ago.We need to talk. ASAP.Eliot is about to have his reality changed and i
A blush creeps up on my cheeks, my head cocking to the side as my eyes widen.Zero had playfully bitten my neck. It means something more in werewolf culture than human. It symbolizes someone's want to mate. It symbolizes someone's want to not only mate, but also claim. He wants to claim me as his.He's moving too fast. Faster than you should as a non-mate. Do I mind? A little because it scares me. It scares me how fast we are moving."Are you okay?" He asks, concerned lacing his words as I nod my head."I'm good, just zone out," I explain, offering Zero a soft smile as he nods."Let's head back to shore."Within five minutes we are back, the music loud as the group has a bonfire going. We walk up to the group, mingling with everyone as I greet people I haven't seen for what feels like ages.Green eyes. Bright green and red hair."Artemis," Mia greets, fixing a smile onto her face as I respect her. She's being mature and not holding a grudge when I would. Hell, if I were her, I would h
My mother watches me as I head up to my room, closing the door behind me as I don't bother to lock it. I know he's going to try and get in here anyway. He always finds a way. I can hear them downstairs, wrapping up their conversation as I plant myself into my bed, the covers thrown over my body as I enclose my body in the sheets. My hands fly to my mouth, muffling the sobs that follow as my eyes are filled with tears. I did this all because I love someone else. I did this and have yet to reject him.I can hear the footsteps, how he gets closer every second. I now wish I had locked my door, to at least feel him by two minutes and collect myself. Rolling onto my stomach, I close my eyes, my eyelashes wet as they brush against my pillow. The door opens, his scent strong as he enters the room, striding in as if he owns the place, but I know he's here because he knows I'm in a bad state now."Artemis?"I pull the covers down a tad, bunching the ends just below my nose to hide my trembling
"Just talk when you're ready," I whisper, rubbing his back as I feel him shake, his face buried in the crook of my neck. His lips tremble against my skin, his eyelashes becoming damp as they brush against my skin. Something happened and I don't think I'll ever be able to forgive the future king. I hold the youngest prince in my arms, telling him he doesn't have to talk, to just not hold back anymore. I've seen him cry before, but barely much. Emotions are hard to see from this male, but for me, he doesn't hold back."Art," he whispers, taking in a shaky deep breath. "Can we get out of here? Just run away for a few days? Go somewhere to do something?"He's wanting to run from his problems just as I was doing weeks ago and still am."Why? Where will that get you? A short break from reality? You will only return weaker because you know running will let you escape for a little," I explain, trying to not speak too loud, his hold loosening up. Soon, he pulls away, his eyes red as he nods hi
"Come on," I whisper, placing a soft kiss onto his cheek, helping him to his feet. With an arm around his waist, I led him to my car, helping him into the passenger's side. Getting in, I pull out of my parking space, turning on the radio as a small smile crosses his face with the song that plays. It's a song I've watched him bang his head to and sing along with. He hums to the tone to keep himself calm as I drive, the road lit by my lights as I try to get back fast.As we pull into my driveway, I turn off the car, unbuckling as I lean back in the seat. Turning my head, I met his gentle gaze. "Why?""Why what?" Zero asks, trying not to move his mouth too much as the blood is starting to dry up."Why do that? Why stand up to him if you knew what he would do?"He shakes his head, getting out of the car as I let out a deep sigh. Hopping out, I help him to the front door, telling him to stay silent as we enter. By the time we're in my room, I sit him down on my desk's chair, rushing into
"How about I ask you something now," Elior changes the subject. He's not ready to know the truth yet. "What do you think about taking a day off from town and heading to the beach?"It's a four hour drive. I would be with Eliot for four hours one way and going to the beach."I was wondering if you would want to go?"I don't hesitate. "Of course!" He smiles, taking a hold of my hands as we fill the night with conversations about the future and the past. The past holds bitter memories and sweet memories. The future holds bitter memories and sweet memories. "When?""It's in three days.” he informs, leaning back in his chair as I do the same. We look out upon the night, fingers interlocked, "Count me in," I add.Within ten minutes we are back to his car, Eliot helping me in as I kick off my heels for the night, blisters already present. Sometimes being a woman can suck ass. As Eliot hops in and pulls out of the parking garage, we hit a red light, and I take no time to waste as I pull
Higanbana pack, the special force of wolves dedicated to protecting the kingdom of werewolves. The pack members came from the bloodline of Fenrir, the guard of Selene. It said they were skilled in any fight in both human and werewolf form. They were the warriors that once fought the hunters and vampires that wanted to eliminate werewolves. They were the most respected pack even if their existence was purely kept hidden. Only when the king summons them do they answer in secrecy.What made the Higanbana pack strong? It was because their blood was pure and never mixed with any other werewolf blood. They never had a mate. Moon Goddess made sure of that. For warriors like Higanbana wolves, mate was the last thing on their minds. But for the last twenty years, Higanbana never produced male offspring even the Alpha.And that’s why, I, Artemis Knight, the next Alpha was being paired with an outsider. “Dad, this is unfair!” I screamed at him. “Do I not have the right to choose my pair?” I co...
