Regan's POVI sat on the bed beside Ashley and all that happened in the past few minutes replayed in my head. For the past ten years, I had never been as scared as I was.My body was sore and I still felt pain all over my body. It was an after-effect of my transformation. I did not know that the strange sensation I had been feeling was a nudge. I did not believe that I could ever wolf out, it was a miracle.The strange feeling started after the first rounds of sex I had with Ashley. It wasn't my first time, I liked sex and I had had it with countless ladies. So I knew it was not about the rounds of sex but Ashley.Again l looked at her sleeping form and heaved a sigh. I was still confused. I needed someone to tell me what just happened. How could I attack Ashley?I had heard about wolves going haywire after their first shift but it still did not make sense that I attacked the person that has come to mean a lot to me.I slipped into the bed and lifted her body into my arms. She was war
Adrian's POVI had never seen the Prince so frustrated and anxious. Yes, he was sad when everything we had built for years went into flames, but he wasn't anxious. I couldn't believe he was anxious over a woman. She was nothing but a cursed slave! If she dies no one cares!The Prince was bitter with himself as he asked questions about his wolf and how to control it.There was no formula for it. His wolf had harboured resentments for years and it just came out. It could be the reason why he was enraged and went haywire.Although it might not be the case for everyone. Some attained their wolves at the right time and they still have it wrong at their first shift.I asked the Prince how he was able to wolf out. He did not reveal it but I knew there as to be a trigger. In his case, he couldn't just wolf out ordinarily after such long years of dormancy.Despite the disaster, I was happy for him. He was able to wolf out. Watching him grow without meeting his wolf was a burden in my heart. Th
Ashley's Pov Regan stayed with me through the night. He had dinner served in his room and he spoon-fed me. He also informed me about Becca's condition. She was getting better and the Prince made her have dinner with my father in the dining hall. A lot was on my mind and I thought I wouldn't be able to fall asleep. Realizing that Regan was the one who rescued me when I was attacked was still like a dream. It made me curious about his identity but above all, I felt secure with him. If he went out of his way to send help my way, it meant I was safe with him at least for now. I dropped my worries and slept like a baby. The next morning, I woke up to the call of the maids. Sighting them, I looked around but Regan was gone. "My lady," the head maid smiled as she led me out of the bed. "We need to get you ready, the Prince is waiting for you," she said grinning from ear to ear. It was the first time I would see her smile and I knew she knew I was searching for the Prince. My cheeks t
Ashley's POV"What the heck is he doing here? He will get us busted," I thought as I walked towards him."Good day, my Prince," I greeted bowing my head."You should have your seat. I was waiting for Regan but it seems he is busy," he said, leading me on."The Dowager called him…""Yes, I saw the messenger," he cut me off."How are you? Are you okay?" He asked, looking worried."Did you send your father away well?" "Yes my Prince," I responded politely."I am glad it ended well… the Prince was lenient enough," he added, looking straight into my eyes."You don't have to be courteous with me… we are the only ones here…" he said, taking a good look at my neck."Good luck with Regan… he has marked you… I think he likes you already… calling you back to the palace is working well for you," he said with a straight face."I am happy you survived the ordeal yesterday, I meant meeting Regan's wolf… and I want to apologize on his behalf. He turned on you because he couldn't help it. He had harb
Ashley's POV "Thank you for letting Becca and my father go.," I muttered as soon as we were behind closed doors."...And the Dowager… Why…""Stop blabbing!" He cut me off harshly and I stopped."Your jacket!" He requested and I pulled off the jacket that covered the skimpy gown I wore.He threw the gown on the bed and drew me roughly on his legs.My heart skipped a beat as he looked piercingly into my eyes.His gaze shifted to my neck and he stared grimly at my scar. "You are mine," he gritted and laid his hand on my neck as he began to kiss me.He was so intense and I could barely keep up with him. His hand on my neck became tighter, choking me up"My Prince…" I whispered in a muffled tone, I could barely talk as I was choking up. I tried to peel his hand away from my neck but he didn't budge.His was ravaging my lips and tongue with his teeth and stifling me.My lungs hurt and I couldn't take it anymore."My Prince…" I mind-linked him as my strength began to dwindle.Instead of st
Adrian's POV I didn't intend to continue the kiss but the look in Nat's eyes made me do it. She looked stunted in a funny way that felt like she wanted me to continue. I dropped the meat in my hand and pulled her closer. She didn't resist me, she just stood there looking at me.My hand rested on the small of her back and I pulled her in as I ravaged her lips with my hunger.I had never been intimate with any woman all my life. I had been busy growing my abilities and guarding the Prince. I think I qualified for a celibate until now.Nat's lips tasted sweet and soft like soft petals, I didn't let go. My Te'o hands rested on the nape of her neck as I deepened the kiss.Suddenly a sweet-smelling fragrance which I hadn't noticed during my encounters with her wafted into my nose.Sam jumped up in my head and I was almost seeing bubbles. This is beautiful! It felt like I was climbing into the clouds. I had never felt any emotions close to it before."Mate…" Sam muttered joyously while my
Ashley's POVDespite the uncertainty that lay ahead I couldn't help but blush. Last night's ordeal remained fresh in my mind.I made out with Regan and he filled my body with pleasure. He made me yell his name and made me yearn for more until I was sore.'The three wise men', he mentioned them when he told me about himself. He didn't say much about them, he only said they were important to him and they made him who he was.Who he was. I wondered if he was referring to his true identity which I still find complex. If the Dowager really killed the three wise men like Prince Asher said, I wondered if I should tell Prince Asher about Regan's connection with them.I felt that the three wise men were important to Regan and I still couldn't figure out Asher's intention towards Regan. I was torn between loyalty and … dedication. I was loyal to Asher and dedicated to Regan.Slowly, I brought Regan's wheelchair to a halt as we stopped in front of the Dowager's chambers."Prince Regan and Lady
Ashley's POVPrince Asher was waiting at Prince Regan's chambers. When I saw him, I remembered Regan's warning and my heart skipped a beat.Looking at his direction, I shook my head. He looked at me but his gaze shifted down to Regan who was in the wheelchair.Not knowing what the two were doing, I steered clear of him and took another route instead."Ashely! Wait!" he yelled and I grimaced. I thought he took the hint."Take her away!" Asher yelled and while I looked around, some guards seized me up from behind."My Prince!" I yelled in confusion and broke loose from those holding me back"Stop! He won't want you to see him this way… Words must not get out either" Asher said and I stopped.What is he talking about? Angrily, I launched forward and burst out from behind him. I burst in front of Prince Regan and fell on my butt in shock. His eyes were closed and blood was dripping from his mouth."My Prince!!" I yelled in horror but Asher shook his head telling me not to shout. I covere
