CHAPTER NINE

HAZEL

The drive back to the mansion was awkward as neither of us wanted to break the uncomfortable silence. I could sense the tension emanating from Darius as he sped towards the mansion. I silently prayed nothing serious happened to Melissa or her unborn child.

Darius might be cruel and seldom show his soft side but I can see that he cares so much for his unborn child.

We got to the mansion in a few minutes. Darius bolted out of the car and threw the keys at the valet. I got down and followed him hurriedly, but I couldn't keep up with his long strides. We rushed to Melissa's room.

She was laying on the bed with maids surrounding her. A man whom I assumed to be the pack doctor was examining her. They all bowed as we walked in.

“Darius.” She cried out as soon as she saw us, opening her eyes and quickly stand up to meet him.

“They said you were unconscious.” Darius said, a hint of irritation visible in his voice.

“I fell down the stairs and fainted.” She said. Darius q

    CHAPTER 10KING DARIUS Spite and jealousy dominated in my veins with my nostrils flaring as I approached Hazel and Xander. I wanted to push Xander away from my mate, for daring to go close to her and even kissing her knuckles in my very present. I had ordered that dinner be brought to the rooftop. I wanted to give her another date since our date at the park was cut short. I sent a maid to call her. I was getting impatient when they were taking too long and decided to go see what was going on. The scene I met made my heart race in pure rage. “Your Majesty.” Xander said, his voice laced with surprise. "I didn't... I didn't know you were around..." he stopped and bowed his head, his voice laced with surprise.“Mine. She is mine.” I growled at him. Xander's eyes darted between Hazel and I. His face dawned with realization and he quickly took a few steps back. “I'm sorry, your majesty. I had no idea.” He said and hung his head low, remorse visible on his face. I wanted to lash out mo

    CHAPTER ELEVEN HAZEL I woke up the next day with a giddy feeling. Last night was like a rollercoaster ride. From witnessing Darius's super possessive side to being treated to dinner on the rooftop. It was one of the best night of my life. I never thought I would talk about my mother's death to anyone but I found myself opening up to Darius who is literally the last person on earth I would even want to talk to. I've started seeing him in a different light since our date at the park. He is not everything he is rumoured to be. Aside from him losing his cool and screaming at the servants, I've never seen him engage in any type of violence. After I freshened up, I decided to go down to the kitchen. I was feeling excited that even the thought of running into Melissa didn't stop me from leaving my room this time. I shrugged it off with the thought that I wouldn't run into her since her leg is injured. As I strode down the hallways, I passed through different servants who stopped

    CHAPTER TWELVE HAZELI could bet she noticed my wolf whimper, because she stopped growling and looked at me in surprise. "You're a weak wolf. An omega" she blurted out. “Why did the moon goddess mate you with Darius? You're so unworthy of him!" She said, shaking her head sideways, ticking her tongue.She moved two steps with her crutches and said to me, almost in a whispwe "I'm pretty sure he'll toss you out soon once he is done with you. There's no difference between you and these low maids” She added. "You're just one of his toys which he would get rid of once he's fed up" she gave an annoying laughter that sounded like a shrill.She turned to Britney. “And you, why the hell haven't I had my morning smoothie by this time? Don't you know I have to look good and be healthy so I can birth a beautiful and healthy child? I am carrying the king's heir for goodness sake.” She barked at her. “Hannah took it to your room already. We didn't meet you inside so we left it thinking you were

    CHAPTER THIRTEEN HAZEL I didn't stop running till I got to my room. The image of Darius torturing that man did not leave my head. A monster, that's what he is. Darius is a monster. The only thing I could think of is to get the hell out of here. I'm sure he is not going to let it slide that I snuck into that torture room of his. I saw the fury in his eyes when our gaze collided. What is he going to do to me? Will he behead me just as he did that man?I paced up and down the room, thinking of what to do when a knock came from the door, making me flinch and stop right on my track. “Ma'am, is everything okay? I saw how you ran in.” I heard a masculine voice say. A sigh of relief escapes through me when I realized it wasn't Darius'.It must be one of the guards that patrol the hallways. I trembled, unable to provide an answer. “Ma'am.” He called again and banged harder on the door. “Ma'am, I'm coming in. Don't hurt yourself, please.” He said. I panicked and spurted, “Don't

    CHAPTER FOURTEEN HAZEL I tried to wiggle out of the net again but it keeps going higher up the tree each time I fought. It continued that way until I ran out of strength and decided to stay put. The urge to eat the wild fruit disappeared and I just let it fall on the net.In about half an hour, three men emerged from the bushes with hunting bows and arrows strapped on their backs and at that moment, Isis began to wimper inside me. It was when realisation dawned on me that I've been caught in a trap meant for rogues. They stared up to look at me. “Looks like our trap captured a rogue after all.” One of the men said flashing his brown teeth at me. “ I'm not a rogue, there has been some misunderstanding.” I said with teary voice, and felt my face wet with tears. One of the men walked towards the tree and cut the rope holding the net to the tree. I fell down on the ground with a thud. I winced in pain as I felt a sharp sting on my kneecap, then wiggled out of the net and the fruit

    CHAPTER FIFTEEN DARIUS Tick! Tick!! Tick!!!The clicking sound of the wall clock filled the air. Or maybe it's the time bomb in my head counting down to the time I'll finally explode. The air in the study was so suffocating that I was taking mild gasps of air.I was staring at some files but couldn't really make out what I was reading from the letters. Xander stood beside me, his hands hanging loosely by his side. While staring at the letters, my mind kept drifting to Hazel. She is terrified of me. Now she is never going to mate with me. I saw the horror in her eyes when she looked at me. It made me wish I would resurrect the dead man and kill him all over again for making my mate terrified of me. That plan was to cut off his head, plunge his eyes out and place them on display in front of the mansion, for I know, rumors will spread like wild fire to the pack that sent him. I didn't even know how she got to the dungeon, but that doesn't matter now. What matters is how I g

    CHAPTER SIXTEEN DARIUS She ran away!She ran away!!I chanted in my head as I paced the living room. Xander went to check how she was able to exit the mansion as none of the guards at the entrance caught sight of her. I couldn't sit still until he came back. I'd never thought she would take such drastic measures that could hurt her just because she wanted to get away from me. I had guards stationed in front of her room earlier Incase she wanted to run away. But she climbed out of the window. I should have never underestimated her ability to escape, she did escape from me once after all, when Lucian first sold her to me. She must have gotten slightly hurt from the high jump. The thought there might be some bruises on her beautiful skin made my heart race faster than it already was. I silently prayed that Xander doesn't tell me that she scaled through the fence. “She escaped through the small gate in the garden.” Xander said as he rushed in. “Okay good, we're heading

    CHAPTER SEVENTEEN MELISSA I can't believe this. I can't believe any of this is happening to me. I watched as Darius exited the mansion with Xander and two other guards. I screamed and threw the glass of wine I was holding on the wall. It shattered on impact. Hazel! Hazel!! Hazel!!! Ever since she set foot inside this mansion everything as always been about her. Darius's world basically revolves around her. He wouldn't even take a piss if he doesn't see Hazel. He doesn't even care that I'm carrying his baby. He is just so concerned about his stupid mate. “What are you all staring at? Clean the god damn floor. Do you want the glasses the pierce my leg and cripple me?” I yelled at the maids who were standing at a corner staring at me. They scrambled around to get the brush and clean the floor. I used to be the center of Darius's attention before Hazel came. He even wanted to send me packing just because he found his mate. It's all because of that stupid mating bond.

Don't give mom a headache. You know I should be with the twins, right? It's their birthday, and you had me with you all day.” I said, touching his cheeks, and he giggled. His giggle— my freedom.After Xander had been banished, and Melissa had been cast into the dungeon, I'd been so traumatized. She'd truly given birth to a baby, but it had been given to Xander. That was the last thing Darius could do to compensate him as a Beta as he sent him off to never return. As for Melissa? She remained in the dungeon. The moment she gave birth to the baby, she hated it. She complained the baby didn't give her freedom and seeing it made her remember Xander whom she painted to be a traitor and a snitch. Staying in the dungeon had broken her and the maids whispered of how she murmurs inaudible words,

    CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY-EIGHTMELISSA'S POV I yawned, stepping out of the room to get myself something to eat. Perhaps, it was just my intuition, but the house felt strangely quiet. The fridge light reflected on my face as I pulled it open, and I saw that Hazel's food for the day hadn't been given to her. “Are you planning to starve her now that we're going to kill her?” I called out, “Well, good riddance!”My voice bounced back to me in echoes, and I stepped back, “Xander?” My feet crossed the living room quickly to the room he usually slept, and I pushed open the door. He wasn't there. Did he really go to a hotel, or was he down in the basement with Hazel?Turning around, I went straight to the basement, and pushed it open, looking inside as I switched on the light. Hazel wasn't there!It hit me like a bolt of terror. “Xander! Hazel!” I called into the empty basement as if they would reply from some hiding place.“No, no! Stop thinking crazy thoughts, Melissa!” Quickl

    CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY-SEVENHAZEL’S POV I couldn't believe it when Xander was loosing the ropes from me. I was finally free. My hands were so white, and devoid of blood, completely lifeless. After freeing my legs, he helped me rise to my feet, but I fell back almost immediately. He caught me, and we waited a while for me to be able to regain the feeling in my legs. Walking was strange and difficult after being tied up for so long, but after taking a few steps, I finally began to get the hang of it, my heart pounding in excitement as we left the house. Xander took me in his car to the mansion, and I rubbed my hands in anxiety. I would see my kids. I would see Darius. Night had fallen completely by the time we got to the mansion, and when the guards at the gate saw Xander, they gave a signal, and different guards came out from different angles, surrounding us with weapons trained on us. “Beta Xander, you have been…” A guard began.“I know. I know… just take me to the Kin

    CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY-SIXXANDER’S POV As Melissa walked past me, my hands balled into a fist, and shook so much that I couldn't even find a way to calm myself. She had crossed the line. She had done way too much. She had said way too much!My chest burned intensely, as a wild heat rampaged around, spreading deep within me, like a fire racing down a forest, burning everything in sight. Damn everything. Damn it all. I wouldn't let her have what she wanted. My baby! She was going to give it to Darius. And then killed Hazel? That was impossible. Yes, I'm mad at Hazel, but I still love her and wouldn't just let her die. The thought ate at me for hours, digging deep inside of me, probing me, disturbing me, until I finally realized I couldn't stay still. Hazel couldn't just die like that. I know it sounds crazy to not want her dead after everything she did to me, but for the sake of the past… perhaps just for the past…I stormed down to the basement where she stayed tied u

    CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY-FIVE MELISSA’S POV Yes, Three long weeks went past, and my life became so static, and stagnant. Seeing Hazel’s face everyday honestly made me want to puke. At times, I’d meet her praying for her kids, and that would anger me more. She’d become a kind of punching bag for me because I vented my full anger on her whenever I felt like it. As for Xander, I didn’t know how he was doing it. For the time being, there was no trouble even with Darius having the kids, so I guessed all was going well. Perhaps he’d been avoiding Darius, although that was almost impossible and risking.However, how he handled it wasn’t really my problem. The only thing he’d become useful for was pleasing my body’s sexual desires. When he wasn’t doing that, everything else he was doing naturally became annoying. That very morning, I woke with a fever; something that was very rare for me to have. I got up, took some water, but my headache only got worse. Eventually, I crawled back

    CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY-FOUR DARIUS’ POV {Three Weeks Later}The last three weeks that passed were hectic. Azel was still so closed off, and wouldn’t talk to me. He would not eat, and get me worried so much that I’d have to ask Theresa to find out what he wants, and take care of him so he wouldn’t get sick. Recently, things got worse. Azella, who was the more receptive one suddenly locked herself up, and wouldn’t leave her room. It was what baffled me the most, and caused me sleepless nights. A knock sounded on my door, and Theresa came in, holding Azel, who had a lollipop in his mouth, and a scowl on his face. “Yes?” “You asked for my report. Azella still won’t come out, and keeps crying. She won't let anyone talk to her.” She said, and I pushed aside the hectic work on my desk, with a sigh, before rising to my feet. Damn. My men were all over, looking for Melissa now. She’d simply gone off the grid. Her phone was untrackable. All of her records were blank. How she did

    CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY-THREE DARIUS’ POV {The Previous Day}My heart stirred as I beheld the two children before me. My kids. Seeing the girl again, my resemblance was present in her shining face. And the boy… he was a combination of me and Hazel. They were really my kids—my heirs. They were… mine. The feeling in my chest felt tight. Like I couldn’t breathe. Just the pain of seeing them so close to me. I’d missed so many important things in their lives. Things I wanted to do with my heirs—take first steps, go out somewhere nice, hear them call my name. The girl smiled happily, her cheeks turning a deep pink as her adorable smile reached her ears. However, the boy had a deep-seated frown on his face, making him look more like me instead of Hazel. I raised my hand, and the guards following all came to stand behind me.“Take the kids in. Give them to Theresa. Food, water, clothes, a bed… give them everything they need.” I said, and they nodded, going to the kids. Azella'

Firm, smooth, full… like a magnetic attraction, I was drawn to them, and couldn't take my eyes off them. And he made the move. He placed his hand behind my head, and bent to kiss me. It was when his lips touched mine that I knew it—my body ached to be loved. It ached to be wanted, wanted to be remembered. I'd spend so many years aching for Darius who never looked my way that I forgot what my body craved, and needed. My tears dropped as the kiss between me and Xander ran deeper, like we wanted to devour the whole of us, tongues gliding over tongues, over lips. My hands found the hardness of his chest, roaming around it as the feet seemed to pull out from underneath me. I fell against him, and he supported me, since the world was becoming unstable. My fingers ended up ripping his buttons, pulling his shirt

Two malnourished kids on their own for three days. They were dead. What would I do? My hands slowly threaded into my hair. If Darius ever found out…What would be my plan? What exactly was the whole plan from the start. Darius was never supposed to find out. He found out, and ruined everything. His patience would soon wear thin. He would soon realize that I would never ask for anything, and all I wanted was their deaths. What exactly was my plan?My hands fell limply to my sides, and I turned away from my parents, feeling the devastation continue to creep on me, snatching my chest in its iron grip. “Melissa!
