Romans' POV'We promised that there will be no secret between us right?' I asked Raven as I held her face in my hands.'I am sorry for keeping everything from you. My wolf and I were just getting to talk about it when this fight of a thing happened. I wanted to get to the root of it all first before I told you.' 'You should have at least said something,' Roy said maintaining his seat on the sofa.We had just had our bath and changed into the clothes we were given. I decided that it was better to talk to Raven before we went downstairs to join our family for dinner. Raven gently removed my hand from her face and walked towards Roy where he was seated.'I am sorry Row. The day we went to visit my parents at your parents' house was the first day my wolf and I started talking about who we really are. The speed I showed that day wasn't normal so I asked her and she started explaining bit by bit as she got her memory back,' Raven said but Roy still didn't raise his head. Raven stopped in
Roy's POV'Are you saying you don't remember much of what happened before your death?' Dad asked Raven who was frowning hard as if she was trying to remember something that was quite elusive.Raven's wolf was on the surface and I could feel her and her green eyes shined brighter. I knew she was frustrated with the fact that she couldn't remember anything. I could feel her frustration in the bond. 'I don't remember anything that happened before my death. All I can remember was that as I breathed my last, one thing kept coming to my mind, I had to find Ryker and Ralph in my next life,' she answered.When she mentioned Ryker and Ralph, my wolf stood at alert and wagged his tail happily as electricity went directly to my spine when her hand touched me. I still didn't understand why my wolf seemed to be under her total control. Just the mention of Ryker's name and my wolf almost took control out of my hands.'My wolf doesn't remember anything that has to do with Queen Leticia. If there w
Romans' POV'I am elated at our achievement but I still can't seem to stop myself from missing the simple old days,' Roy grumbled.I smiled to myself as I put on my shirt.The past two days had been hectic. Wolves from far and near came to pay their homage.The news of a new king and queen had spread far and wide. The elders of the council had made sure they sent the message of their consent to all packs.For the first time in my life, I was meeting a lot of people in a space of two days. Some didn't show surprise at the fact that they had two kings and a queen while others couldn't hide their surprise.'I saw the way you were puffing yourself so proudly as people thronged in yesterday,' I said teasingly.'You can shut up now,' Roy said and I threw my head back and laughed. 'Anyway, the Luna of Attic Moon called to personally congratulate me,' I said smiling.'I don't want that witch anywhere near my mate,' Roy said.'She is not your mate alone, remember? she is also mine as well. Bes
Raven's POVThe Luna of Attic Moon was just generally a bitter person. She didn't even know who the Queen was yet and she was already antagonistic. I watched her step into the room smelling like one thousand cheap perfumes put together. Her face was made up so heavily that the thickness of the powder cake could easily be peeled off. My spine went rigid with anger when she subtly dropped the hint at the fact that she had a sexual history with Roman. I pushed the thought to the back of my mind and took deep breaths to calm myself. That was an issue I would address later and I was ready to give Roman grief for sleeping with someone else's mate.Roman introduced Roy and I to her since she was obviously intentionally ignoring us, especially me. I watched as blood drained out of her face when she realised that I was the one she was looking at. She would have fallen or worse still collapsed on the floor if she had not been sitting.She held the edge of the table before her as her knuckle
Raven's POVMy heart warmed at how Uncle Marcus dropped everything to run to Bella's side to hold her in his arms tightly as his eyes shifted between his wolf's and his. I had never thought it was possible for a wolf especially, an Alpha wolf to accept his chosen mate and be so protective of her to the extent a single tear from her can make him look the way Uncle Marcus was at that moment.'Why are you crying my love? What happened? April what happened to you mum?' Uncle Marcus fired one question after the other.'I came across the person that made it almost impossible for us to meet ever again,' Bella said.'The Luna of Attic Moon? Uncle Marcus asked and Bella nodded in the affirmative. 'That witch was here? Where is she? I need to give her a piece of my mind,' Uncle Marcus' voice boomed with anger. 'She just left. I guess you met her on the way and thought she was struck,' April said. 'That was her that smelled like she drowned in bottles of cheap perfumes and her face looked lik
Raven's POV'Bring him down to the palace,' Roy said to the head guard without taking his eyes off his mother.'We don't know if this person is saying the truth or not. Why don't we just go with mum to the dungeon to see him?' I suggested.'It is better to bring him here. We will meet him at the waiting room on the other side of the palace,' Roy insisted so I just shrugged and adjusted into my seat properly. 'Go and bring him here,' Roy said to the head guard.'Yes, Alpha,' he said and left immediately to do as he had been told.'Mum, are you okay?' Roman asked standing up from his seat to stoop by his mum's seat. 'I don't know Roman. I can't even believe that this is happening. Uncle Zeus is dead,' my mates' mum said in a shaky voice.'How do you know that? Did you see his corpse during the attack?' Roy asked his mum. Roman stood up and placed a placating hand on his mum's back. 'I didn't.' She answered looking thoughtful.'How then are you sure that he is dead?' Roman asked. 'Unc
Roy's POVI raised my head as a knock came at the room door. I had excused myself from Raven and Roman to come back to the room upstairs. I just kept wondering why mum kept getting betrayed by those she trusted. I just hoped she would be fine because that was one betrayal too many. It was so unthinkable that the person she had described to us was nothing but a lie and he had only been like that to her and her family just to achieve his aims. Just like Emma.'Can I come in?' Raven asked from the door poking her head into the room. 'No. Go away,' I said not meaning a word of it.'Why do you want me to go away?' You can talk to me you know?' Raven said as she got closer to me.When she got close enough I pulled her down on my lap and buried my face in her neck.'Ok. You should have just said...' 'Shut up Raven, I need five minutes,' I mumbled into her neck. Cutting off what she was saying. She kept quiet and allowed me inhale her scent to calm myself. I could feel her shiver each ti
Raven's POVI was sleeping deeply but I heard what Roman told Roy clearly. My parents were back! I sat down immediately the words sank.'I thought you were sleeping?' Roman said smiling teasingly.'You were loud enough so I heard you clear and loud,' I said as I got up from the bed removing the blanket so that it would not impede my movement. Roy and Roman's sudden growl made me remember that I was naked. I stood at the edge of the bed looking at both of them with my eyes wide like a deer caught in the headlights. Roy made a move towards me and that made me recover quickly.'Don't you dare move one inch closer else I will scream the whole palace down. Are you both in heat. Why are you so insatiable?' I hissed lightly and ran into the bathroom as their chuckle accompanied me in.I cursed lightly under my breath when I realised that there was nothing for me to wear in the bathroom. 'Roman, can you please get me something to wear?' I said hoping he would choose something that was okay
Roy's POVSix Years Later 'Kaden, Kyle if you both don't come out this minute, I will skin you both alive when I eventually get my hands on you' I heard Raven shout for our five years old twins to come out of their hiding place. I was in the study and had deliberately left the door open because the kids kept coming into the study to disturb me. Instead of getting distracted by them each time they opened the door, I left it open so they could come and go as they liked.I rolled my eyes. Whatever they had done had surely gotten on her nerves seriously. Our twins were hand full. They got Roman's disposition and every moment was like a means to have fun.I stood up from the chair, pushed what I was doing aside, and walked into the corridor. 'Darling, the entire palace can hear you shout. What is the problem this time?' I asked as I walked towards her.'Daddy,' Tessa our three-year-old daughter called and ran to embrace me.'That is my favorite girl,' I said as I picked her up. She had
Raven's POVTwo Months After Coronation 'Wake up darling,' Roy said as he shook me by the shoulder.I grumbled for him to let me be. I couldn't sleep all night due to their constant sexual demands. What he could do in the least was allow me sleep for as long as I wanted. 'Go away Roy. I am tired. I need to sleep,' I said and I heard Roman chuckle from somewhere in the room. 'You are just being lazy. You asked for it and we gave you what you wanted,' Roman said.'I didn't ask for anything,' I grumbled as I buried myself deeper into the pillows.I felt a side of the bed deep and I knew one of them had gotten into bed with me. I didn't open my eyes still. I wanted to sleep. 'What do you call the way you were looking at us and sending pictures of your nude self into the link?' Roman asked getting closer to me.'It is called seduction. Next time if you are not ready for something, don't start it,' Roy said slapping me hard in the ass. I grudgingly sat in bed, glaring at the both of th
Roman's POV'Hey, are you okay?' I asked Raven as I saw her standing alone in the garden looking lost in thought. 'I am fine,' she answered raising her head to look at me smiling. I noticed that the smile didn't reach her eyes. She seemed happy some moments ago. It was two weeks after the coronation and we had settled into our roles as the kings and queen. It wasn't a bed of roses though but we got by. It was way different from being an Alpha. While we were Alphas, we only had to take care of our pack but we now have the burden of the welfare of a whole nation resting on our shoulders. It was a lot to bear as I have started to realize but as far as we are together, we will be alright. I pulled her to me and wrapped my hands around her, teasingly dropping a kiss on one of our marks. I felt her shiver with excitement in my hands. Her response to us excited me to no end. She was indeed ours. 'Do you think I will believe the fact that nothing is wrong? You left Roy and I inside and
Raven's POVI patiently sat as the make up artist and hair stylist did their thing. To say I was happy was an understatement. I never aspired for anything, I just wanted to live each day as it comes. But the universe obviously had another plan for me.Yes it was the coronation day, I was going to become the queen of the wolf's kingdom. I Raven a mere Omega that was trampled upon by other Omegas and pack members back at Attic Moon.'The make up is not yet done and you look so beautiful already,' Selene gushed as she walked into the room looking beautiful herself.'You look beautiful Selene,' I said honestly. 'Thank you. Wait until you see April. I just wish I had her type of skin,' Selene said dreamily.'Your skin is beautiful too Selene,' I said smiling at her.'Don't tell me that.That natural tan is everything, believe me,' Selene replied sitting down on the bed opposite me.'Your skin is beautiful and so also is April's,' I said. 'Did somebody mention my name?' April asked popping
Raven's POVI swallowed hard as I gazed at my mates standing side by side shirtless, everything I had wanted to say, flew from my mind. All they had on was their boxer briefs and that was even short. 'I thought you would be used to seeing us naked by now,' Roman said grinning like he knew exactly what effect that image had on my mind.I blinked several times and then closed my eyes to ward off the effect of that scene on my brain. 'You don't have to fight it my love, let the feeling come through, you want us,' Roy said into my ears and I shivered. I didn't know when he got that close. I heard the door close behind me. I had not closed it when I came in because of the assault of the scene before me on my senses. 'I don't mind that you are closing your eyes but I just love seeing those beautiful eyes when we pleasure you,' Roman said from behind me into my other ear. The heat from the both of them was so soothing that I just stood there with my eyes closed and let them undress me.
Raven's POV'Are you guys sure Adrian doesn't have personality disorder?' I asked because I was surprised that such a person who laughed so easily and warmed hearts while at it was capable of just switching into another character like that. 'Does Roman too have personality disorder?' Roy asked instead of answering my question.'What do you mean?' I asked.'No one should drag me into this, Adrian is Adrian while I am me,' Roman said defensively.'What are you talking about Roy?' I asked refusing to let go of the matter. 'Why not remove the love from your eyes and look at your mate closely. He is as good natured as our dear best friend but when crossed, they forget their good nature, they forget the happy go lucky guy they are and deal with the situation appropriately,' Roy said. 'Are you saying that the way Adrian handled that matter was appropriate,' I asked Roy looking at him open mouthed.'I had not expected him to go that way but it was what he thought appropriate. I wanted to s
Raven's POV'How about you dump these old fools and run away with me Raven?' Adrian asked making me smile as Roy and Roman growled at him.'I would have loved to do that but I don't like play boys and you top the chart you know,' I said and Adrian winced.'That hurts,' Adrian said pouting.'That is what you get for being so playful,' Roman said glaring at Adrian.'So can you now tell me how and why your eyes decided to take the color of your wolves and how come Raven has the same eye color as yours?' Adrian asked.He had been going on and on about our eye color ever since he woke up but Roman had kept telling him to become stronger first before he could tell him anything. Roman didn't tell him anything the first day he woke up just so that we were sure that the worse was over. Roman sighed as Roy nodded at him to go ahead. Roman told Adrian everything. From the fact that they had always known they were born to rule and the fact that they are actually kings now.'All we are waiting f
Raven's POV'I think you and Raven should go back to Luna's Den,' Roman said to Roy.'We can't possibly leave you here all alone,' Roy replied.'I am not here alone. Adrian's parents are here. You need to go check on Carl and we also have piles of work waiting at the pack,' Roman said.'I am not leaving you here,' I said to Roman and both my mates turned to me. 'I want you where you are comfortable Raven, please go with Roy,' Roman pleaded. 'No. I am comfortable here,' I insisted.It's been two days and Adrian hadn't opened his eyes. We were in his hospital room. He looked so peaceful and harmless sleeping like that.The effect of the wolf's bane was beginning to wear off as his wounds were healing. The doctor had said there were drugs in his system. He was drugged before he was injected with wolf's bane.'I haven't accepted to go back to Luna's Den without the both of you,' Roy said to me.'Whatever it is, I am not leaving Roman here alone,' I said stubbornly.'But you can leave me
Raven's POVI followed Roman all the way to the end of the hall into the room he opened. There was a male with bruises on his face lying chest up on the bare floor. 'Adrian,' Roman called as he went one knee to lift his head up. I could see from where I was standing that he was still breathing but his scent wasn't very strong.'His scent is weak,' I said.'Only one thing can be responsible for that, wolf's bane,' Roy said from behind me.'What do we do now? With the way he is breathing, he might not make it back to Luna's Den,' Roman said looking very worried.'There was a method I learnt when I was in Attic Moon. It was used to save people who were injected with wolfs' bane. Most Omegas know the method. But I don't know if your friend here was injected or he ingested it,' I said frowning.'We need to find out what happened then. I will mind link one of the soldiers to...' Roman stopped talking as his eyes clouded over, he was mind linking someone, ' Good,' he said when he was throug
