Regan’s POV, Do you know that feeling when you finally find your lost treasure? That was the state I was pummeled into the moment I rode into my study. The sight of my shadow guard who was sitting in his invisible form on one of the chairs uplifted my spirits in a way I’d never expected. “M..my...my...prince.” He got on his feet immediately when I entered. His facial expression had a nervous glitch which I ignored and instead sprang to my feet. “Adrian!!” I cooed as I engulfed him in a bone-crushing hug. I felt his body stiffen under my grip but it gradually relaxed as I continued hugging him tightly like my life depended on it.... well, maybe It did. “Adrian I’m sorry. I’m so sorry for not coming to check on you. I’m sorry!” I kept muttering words of apology as I hugged the shit out of him. I couldn’t believe it myself as I felt tears break free from my eyes. “Okay, that’s enough now, please. You’re cho...choking me ...Argh...” Adrain protested, struggling to break free from m
Regan’s POV, I watched as Adrian compressed my wheelchair and tossed it under the desk. He then walked towards me, giving me a knowing look. I nodded, and he wound his arm around my middle. Instantly, we became invisible, and together we dissolved into thin air. We traveled through space and landed in a different location.As I disengaged from Adrian, my eyes scanned around and I discovered we were in a grassland. “What are we doing here? I mean… I thought you were taking me directly to the cave.” I arched my brows and then scanned the premises once more. The area was void. Looking yonder, the blue sky overlapped with the green grasses creating an illusion of a beautiful preset.The strong wind had our hair and garments swirling around, it was quite refreshing. Refreshing to be outside the fucking palace once again. “Overlook my indulgence, my Prince. I know how much you like to ride on Maximus and walk around. That's why I decided to bring you here… to enjoy the ride." Adrian s
Ashley’s POV,I knew that Logan wouldn’t really hurt me, but I was scared for Allen. Considering Logan's extreme hatred towards him, this will certainly not end well.My eyes darted to the entrance of Allen's room and I cringed.“I am sorry…. I’m sorry for coming here I… swear, I didn’t…..” I stuttered and my voice trailed off as I turned to face Logan. It was my last resort. I had to beg him this time.I quickly bowed to avoid his gaze which must be spitting fire by now. But who am I kidding? Without spitting a word, Logan gripped my wrist and I gasped. He then pulled me away from my spot, dragging me into the nearest compartment.All the way, I couldn't look at him. My heart throbbed when he let go. I braced myself up expecting him to take his anger on me but I was wrong.“Ashley…” he murmured with a soft tone and I rared my head up, looking into his eyes. Although his eyes were unnaturally red, there was a soft glow in his eyes which made me frown. Taking a good look at him. He l
Ashley’s POV, A chilly breeze caressed my skin, yet I felt so hot. Playing the middleman for two foes who were trying to put away their differences could be really choking. Right now, I was sitting together with both Prince Logan and Allen on a round table. So far, nobody had spoken a word and the tension between Logan and Allen as they fixed their gazes was so thick. “So? What now? Why did you call me all the way down here?” Allen finally broke the silence. His tone sounded harsh and he looked so exasperated like he should be anywhere else but here. Well, he’d downright turned down Logan’s request when he came for him at the slave quarters. Aside from the fact that it was already late in the night, Allen didn’t want anything to do with Logan but I had to step in. I mean after the sincere apology we got from Alpha Simpson the previous day, it wouldn't look good for Allen to turn down Logan so I had to persuade him to hear Logan out. Moreover, we agreed to work together as a t
Ashley’s POV, It has been an uneventful weekend as nothing new really took place. Well, except you want to add the fact that Allen and Logan finally resolved their differences but we haven’t really had any important convo before our new mission.Though the moon goddess had blessed the day richly, I wasn’t getting a share of that. The day was bright, sunny, and windy. The wind blew hard, twirling my hair and attire. But after working my life out, all I felt now was exhaustion as beads of sweat were all over my body. I and the other slaves were out on the field, not a literal field though. We were simply working and we were split into two groups. While male slaves dug the soils for iron ores, the females had to go carrying them in sacks into the storeroom.Eventually, the work was gradually coming to a close as the male slaves finished their jobs while we had to do the finishing.Allen came to join me and he relieved me of work by helping me carry down the materials. Though we got sc
Regan’s POV, Sitting in my wheelchair, I was lost in thought. Things were going as planned and if things continued to work out, we would soon stage the proposed attack against King Muna and Queen Dowager.I didn't want bloodshed, especially the blood of the innocent. But sometimes crucial sacrifices can't be avoided. Overtaking King Muna wouldn't happen if we continue to play by the book.Taking a break from my thoughts, I brought the bottle of vodka to my mouth and drained some of the liquid.A faint smile painted my lips as I remembered my last meeting with the three wise men.The gold we hijacked from the Dowager was successfully traded in the human world. And I urgently needed to sign some documents, that was why Adrian needed to pick me up. It was indeed an urgent matter.While werewolves controlled the supernatural, humans had the deadliest war weapons that could make the strongest of our kinds to cower. Now that my weapons had snowballed, the day of battle was nigh and I just
Logan’s POV, It was a normal day and I was taking a walk around, the pack mansion. My hands folded behind me as I was deep in thoughts.The breeze was gentle. It caressed my skin and made my long hair swirl. I strutted past trees, some busy pack workers and slaves who all performed royal bows at the sight of me. As usual, the females however went overboard; they giggled and waved their fingers at me, throwing themselves at me but I only offered a smug smile which shooed them off. As I continued touring, I halted when something caught my attention. Mattias was at a distance bickering at a girl who just walked past me a while ago. She was kneeling before him crying bitterly.Martias yelled something at her while lashing her with a whip. The sight of it aggravated me so I dashed towards them. “And what’s going on here?”I settled for a gentle tone and Mattias immediately receded at the sight of me. Taking a glance at the weeping girl, I could see relief all over her face.“I caught th
Allen’s P.O.V, “I know you’re all wondering why I suddenly called for this gathering.”Alpha Simpson began with a radiant smile. He took a pause as he eyes began to roam. As spacious as the pack hall was, it was filled up with members of the moon light pack. Both royals, and ordinary pack members. Food and drinks were Surplus and everyone was having an awesome share of it. This gathering had been orchestrated by alpha Simpson in just short notice. After that night of Martias’ confession, I was baffled when Alpha Simpson us about the party just last night and though it took a day interval, I didn’t expect this much crowd. While Alpha Simpson and other royals were at the royal section, I was sitting among other pack members. And the entire slaves too were all present. Not like I know exactly what this party is all about but but I just had a good feeling. Not just for the party but Ashley had left me all smiles. Seeing how giddy she’d been throughout our arrival at the pack house wa
