âItâs done.â Alexander informed Martha through their mind link. âMarcus and Lilian are dead.â Alexander leaned close to Marcus body, which was shrinking with each passing minute. âHmmmm. Iâm sorry this had to happen to you. But I canât let you take over my pack. I wish it was someone else, I truly wish it was.â A knock sounded on the door, jolting him from his thoughts and Alexander opened it to let Martha in. With two large duffel bags in her hands, she grinned widely when she saw Marcus and Lilian lying dead on the bed. She wrapped her arms around Alexanderâs neck and gave him a long, wet kiss. âYou did it! Iâve always known you were a man of your words.â His lips quirked. âWe have to get rid of the bodies before anyone finds out. In less than an hour, the entire pack will be expecting them at the coronation hall.â âOkay. They are beginning to smell already.â Martha giggled and gave him one of the bags. Lilian meant nothing to her. She would kill her again and again if it was co
GOLDEN STONE PACKDaisyâs POVâI invited my friends for breakfast.â Landon wrapped his arms around me and a small smile spread across my lips. âI want to introduce you to them. Youâll get along with most of them.â âMost of them?â My eyebrows cocked. âLetâs just say that Penny and Dylan might be mischievous and cold for sometime. But trust me, they are really nice.â âOk. I hope they are.âHe led me to the breakfast table, filled with several dishes. Some maids were still scurrying around, adding meals to the table and getting everything in place. I thought it was an extravagant way to have breakfast but considering it was our first breakfast together, I knew he was trying to impress me. As soon as we sat down to eat, his friends walked in, each majestic and breathtaking. Lycans were beautiful, no doubt. Their features were delicate yet sharp, refined and attractive. It was hard to walk past a Lycan without turning twice to take in their beauty. As I watched them take their seat ar
Daisyâs POVâWhat?â My lips quivered as I stared at the seer. I didnât want to believe that her revelation was true, that I was going to suffer another failed relationship. âThatâs impossible!â Landon growled beside me, inching closer to the seer. âRe-do it again. I donât believe thatâs right.â I was a bit relieved that Landon also didnât agree with the revelation. After all, he invited her to the palace. If there was anyone who had the rights to disagree with her, it was him. The seer cackled, her tongue running over her blackened teeth. Her eyes sparkled with mischief but I couldnât tell if it was just the natural characteristic of witches to be crafty or she had something up her sleeves. âThe moon goddess doesnât make mistakes.â She eyed me wearily. âYour mate should be more concerned than you, Prince. She is the key to everything.â I choked back a curse, my heart thumping hard in my chest. âMe?â I exhaled. âWhat could possibly go wrong with us? You made the previous prophecy a
Daisyâs POVLandon froze immediately the words left Johnâs lips. The color on his face drained gradually and his lips twisted into a vivid frown. âWhere are they?â He asked, with a different cold voice. His eyes had darkened, veins appearing around them and I instantly realized he was livid. What could possibly make him so upset about his parentâs arrival? âA border guard called me immediately after their convoy passed the packâs main entrance. I ran here as quickly as I could to tell you. They should be here any moment from now.â John appeared to be confident but I could also see he was struggling. âGet me the royal mantle.â Landon instructed him. âMy mother would lose her mind if I welcome her without the royal robe.â John sprinted away to do his bidding leaving us alone for a brief moment. âWhatâs going on?â I asked, feeling lightheaded. Everything was hitting me at once and I couldnât grasp anything at all. The seer, the revelation, his parents; I was completely confused. Lan
Daisy's POVA low chuckle left Landon's lips as he shook his head slowly. He turned to me, his gaze a mixture of sadness and pain. "Do you want to know why I didn't tell you about her, mother?" He asked, taking a step closer to her, his hands clenched beside him. "It's obvious." Queen Athena purred, shooting me a disgusted glare. "You're ashamed of her. I would be ashamed and embarrassed by her too. I can't believe the moon goddess would make you wait for years and give you thisâthis.." She scrunched up her face in disgust as she pointed at me. It was like she was avoiding staring at me completely like a look from me could curse her with leprosy. "This girl. It's unbelievable that you would bring her into this palace in the first place." "I've waited for hundreds of years to find my mateâ" Landon began but his mother quickly chipped in. "That is not an excuse to bring in just anybody to this palace." "Can you hear yourself?" His voice thundered, echoing across the room fiercely. I
Daisyâs POVI rushed into my room, firmly closing the door to block out the argument happening in the meeting room. However, it was of no use. Landon and his parents' voices had grown louder, each fueled by anger and frustration.âI will not accept that thing as your mate!â I heard the queenâs shrill voice from the meeting room. âYou must be mated to a royal princess!ââScrew your royalty! I wonât be with anyone else but Daisy!â I flinched slightly when I heard Landonâs voice. I knew he was angry, so angry that his wolf was threatening to break free.âWhat is wrong with me?â I slumped down to the cold, bare floor, my back pressing against the door. âWhy am I never enough for the people I love?âIn my grief, I considered if I had made the wrong choice by accepting Logan as my mate. I tried to envision a life where I made a different choice and stayed with Alexander. Such a life would be full of misery, but it would have saved me from Queen Athenaâs scorching hatred.âLightcrest has fal
BACK AT LIGHTCREST PACK "You wont believe this!" Martha exclaimed as she dashed into Alexander's room. She found him in his study, leaning back in his chair and talking on the phone. She had a wide grin on her face as she waved an envelope, sealed with the royal ink, in the air. "The Lycan Queen sent us an invite." "I'll talk to you later." Alexander breathed to the person on the phone, then snatched the envelope which contained the invite from her. "An invite to what?" He asked, ripping off the seal. His hands were unsteady as he took out the invite, his eyes gleaming over it. "I don't know." She shrugged. "What does it say?" She leaned closer to him, trying to read the letter.Without tearing his eyes away from the letter, Alexander rose to his feet. A small smile carved around his lips as he read the invite once more, to be sure he didn't misread it earlier. "It's an invitation to a masquerade ball." He finally told her. "A ball?" Martha wasn't impressed. "What kind of ball? A
ONE WEEK LATERGOLDEN STONE PACKDaisy's POVOne week passed by faster than I imagined, and no matter how much I prayed the days would slow down, the day for the ball arrived. As I stood by the window, watching the guests arrive for the grand ball, I couldn't help but feel my stomach tying into a tight knot. Everyone seemed to be brimming with anticipation, ready to enjoy the night but my stomach churned with a nauseating mixture of apprehension and anger. The room seemed to be closing in on me, and my thoughts were spiraling out of my head. I had always been treated harshly by people but this was the worst of it. Most people in my previous pack saw me as a weakling, humiliated me for being different but I always tried to ignore them. But the Queen's decision to separate Landon and I was too much to ignore. All I had ever dreamed of was experiencing the true love of a mate, feeling accepted and welcomed somewhere, anywhere. And when Landon came into my life, I believed my dreams ha
LANDONMy father, the king...I quickly placed Daisy back on the pillow and slowly pulled away from her. I could see the question and worry in her eyes, but I didnât have the time to appease her. Quickly, I ran to the wardrobe and grabbed clothes for myself, a royal robe.No matter what, one must not enter the crown area without having a robe. I turned to look at Daisy, who was holding a pillow to herself in a bid to cover up her nakedness. I tried to smile, but it didnât come out quite right."Wait here," I said instead.With that, I stepped out of the room to a pensive-looking John. His head was down in obeisance, and I could tell that the matter was grave, for there was none of his calming aura at that moment."What happened to my father?â I asked at once.He shook his head. "I donât have much information about it, Prince Landon. All I know is that the queen has sent for you, and she is in no good mood," he added.I gave a quick nod and moved quickly toward the elevator. John follo
DAISYLandon led me to his room, without saying a word to me, or letting go of my waist. I was grateful for that because it would simply make the princesses see the chemistry between us and annoy them even more."Come in," he said politely.I said nothing as I stepped in. Taking several steps away from him, in other to put some distance between us, I watched as he shut the door firmly behind him. I held my hands together, hoping to control the pain that I was feeling. "I have missed you," he said suddenly as he turned to look at me.I scoffed. "Save those words. You have shown me what I meant to you since the night of the ball."I blinked in shock as Landon suddenly pushed me against the wall, trapping me with his body. I could hear the pounding of my heart and I knew he could too. "Donât try to intimidate me," I said, feeling heat all over my body. He smirked. "What are you afraid of, Daisy?"I looked away from his piercing eyes, unable to take any more of the heat that he exuded.
DAISY"I canât keep staying here," I grumbled as I got out of bed, feeling completely drained. I knew I needed rest but I couldnât continue to lie in bed all day. I was losing my mind with all the thoughts in my head and a distraction was needed. I had no idea what time it was, but I knew I had spent two days in bed after Landonâs last visit. The fact he had not come again to check up on me was so painful. Was I really going to succeed in breaking my own relationship with my own hands? Had I really succeeded in pushing him away? I shook my head as I walked barefoot to the bathroom. I canât take the whole blame since he was the one who didnât do anything to defend me from his motherâs continuous onslaught.Sighing I pulled my shirt off and tossed it to the nearest washing basket. I could imagine that I actually had some odour since I had not had my bath for two days, but at least, I was fine now. Stepping into the bath, I opened the tap, and allowed the water to wash me from my hair
DAISY"Ugh!"My fingers lightly kneaded the side of my head as I tried to stay awake. I felt as though someone was hitting my head with a hammer, and I just didnât know how to get the pain off. Slowly, I turned over to my left in a bid to see what time it was. The giant clock on the wall claimed it was 6 am."Maybe, Iâm going through this because I woke up too early?" I mumbled to myself as I tried to get to my feet.It was as though I was swimming in a pool, with no means to swim out. Biting down my lips in pain, I tried hard not to scream. I pushed my hands back a bit, and slowly pushed myself up."Oh, moon goddess!" I breathed out at the same time the door sprang open, and in came, Prince Landon holding a tray of freshly baked biscuit and warm scented tea.He beamed at me as though we had suddenly sorted out all the problems between us. "Iâm so glad youâre awake, darling," he said heartily.Since when did he call me that and act this way? I couldnât stand the way he was so frivolou
ALEXANDERThe whole atmosphere was so chill as death, and I didnât need to be told twice what had caused it to be so. There was no point in dwelling in such matters, but I found that I couldnât think straight with all that had happened.I turned towards the empty podium where the queen and king should be, but it was vacant. "Do you think someone really tried to kill Daisy, or she had orchestrated all these to gain sympathy from the Lycan Prince?" I asked Wyatt who stood behind me in silence."Alpha, I wouldnât know for sure till I investigate the matter. But, whatever happened here doesnât look like a ploy. She was really in pain," Wyatt said calmly.I frowned at that as my hands twisted over my pants. If that were true, then who could have done such a thing? It was definitely not me, because all I wanted was to get her out of here, and to my pack. I wanted her to knee before me in submission, and unable to say a word in her defence.My eyes scanned the room, and I realised that Mart
LANDONI hugged Daisy so hard, not wishing to let her go even for a minute. She meant a lot to me, more than I could put into words. How could someone so pure go through so much pain?"Landon, I canât breathe," she whined.A smile touched my lips as I slowly released her. "You donât want me to hug you, silly girl," I teased just as hard.I let my fingers slowly slide through her hair. She was the most amazing, and the sweetest soul ever. Nothing must go wrong with her. Her eyes were slowly dim, and I could tell that she was struggling to get herself and that broke me."Come closer," she said softly.I leaned closer to her and felt her hands weakly hold me tight. It felts so good to be able to have such a hold on me, and I just wanted to be with her even more than I ever had in my whole lifetime."Can you stop this awful display now?" Motherâs voice pierced through the moment.I gritted my teeth as I slowly pulled away, kissing Daisy on her forehead. I looked down on her face, and her
LANDONâDaisy," I said in a whisper.My legs shook as it moved forward. This couldnât be happening. Lowering myself on the floor, I pulled back the robe even further, and noted how lifeless she was with blue veins moving around her skin.I swallowed hard as I caressed Daisyâs hollow cheeks. There was no way she would be dead right now. It must be a mistake and John didnât know what he was saying. Yes, that should be it."Get up," I cried. âYou need to open your eyes. You need to get up and come with me.â"Prince Landon.â John whispered, pain evident in his voice. I ignored him at once, placing both hands around Daisyâs cheeks as I willed her mentally to wake up. "This cannot be the end. You canât leave me on the night I completely failed you. Come on, you need to wake up! I have searched for you all of my life, and itâs important to take care of you," I cried. Daisy wouldnât still open her eyes, despite my pleadings. I felt like I was about to drown in a bottomless pit and there wou
LANDON"Landon, letâs talk to the princesses that I have invited," mother said easily as she touched me by the arm.I slowly retracted my hands from hers. This was not how I wished the night to go. Looking around frantically for Daisy, I noted that she was engaged in some hot words with one of the princess, who I couldnât care less about her name. I knew she was about to cry, but she was trying to be strong. It was a trait that I admired, but I wish she would just drop it."Landon," mother whined once more.I turned my gaze to her, my eyes as cold as ice. "You shouldnât have done this," I blurted out.She gave me a look. "What are you talking about dear?"I moved closer to her, not caring who heard what at the moment. "You broke my relationship with Daisy in the most disgusting way. Why? Tell me why you did it?"Mother flipped her hair over her shoulders as she rolled her eyes at me. "Princess Mona seems to be dying to have a word with you. Keep her company, Landon. Youâre a prince, s
DAISYI swallowed the lump in my throat as I tried to put on a brave face. There was no way I would let them know the truth. I could feel the eyes of almost everyone in the close radius, waiting for me to speak, so they could pounce on me."What makes you think that Iâm that woman?" I scoffed.The lady stepped closer to me. "Well, there are a lot of things that proves that youâre the rejected omega. Youâre visibly shaking, and youâre almost in tears. If that is not enough, youâre a werewolf and so much smaller than the Lycans. You match the description the queen had said. I believe that youâre that omega. It was Daisy, right?" She asked the princess easily.I clamped my hands together at once as I gave a slightly breathy laugh. "What are you saying?" I mocked.The two women gave me a look. I rolled my eyes in a bid to act as though they were all blabbing at this point. "Iâm not that woman, please. I really think that youâre trying to insult me.""But..."I held my hands up, stopping t
