Cora’s POV

My eyes were probably engorged from how I was staring at the lovely setup before me, but I don’t care, I’d rather stare at it all day.

Kai had somehow pulled together a little dining date under the largest tree I’d ever set eyes on, the tree had vines with different beautiful flowers lined around the bark, there were several tiny lightbulbs hanging from it that I believed were meant to light up everywhere when it got dark.

There was a little round table craved from the finest wood and as if that wasn’t good enough, there were hand painted flowers on the table that matched the ones running around the tree. The chairs at both sides of the table also matched the designs on the table, and then the path that led to it was lined with flowers as well.

“If we stand here staring at the setup all day, we’ll never get to watch the sunset” I heard pride rumble in his deep voice as he linked my arm with his and started to walk us toward the table.

The closer we got to it, the more my he

    Leila’s POVMy eyes were still watering from the horrid fog I’d just stepped into, and my hands were clutching my sides as the chilly weather assaulted my body—but it was all for him, so I’d weather even the worst storms to help him find his way back to me.Even if the storm in question was searching the forbidden lands for a deadly plant.“Kol! Can you fucking walk like you’ve got blood flowing through those veins of yours?” I turned around and snapped at the stupid guard that was accompanying me.For a trip that was meant to take at least five days, the bastard had made sure that it lasted for a over a week because of his sluggishness while riding the carriage and how easily he took the wrong routes because he couldn’t read the maps.“I’m sorry, ma’am” He gave me his usual flimsy apology that didn’t mean shit.“Then move like it, you waste of space” I was trying my best not to scream and attract any wild animals but he was testing my patience and making it thin by the second.Kol fin

    Cora’s POV“Would you like your own room?” Kai asked out of the blue just as I finished cleaning his room.I turned to look at him like he’d grown six heads, and maybe he had but I couldn't see it because he’d blinded me with his new weird attitude.“I like my room” I looked at him suspiciously.Maybe this was all a ruse, just like how I was being civil with him so I could get close enough to kill him, maybe he too was trying to separate me from the other maids so he could kill me quietly and dispose of me.Like he’d ever need to cover up murder? The man kills as he pleases, my wolf discarded my stupid assumptions easily.“But you’d like one you didn't have to share with three other people much more,” He turned his chair around completely so he was facing me.“Since when did you care about what I’d like?” My confusion was definitely evident on my face seeing as he smiled and shook his head fondly.“True, I’ll just go ahead and have one prepared for you whether you’d like one or not” H

    Leila’s POVIt’d been 24 long hours since I’d seen Kai’s dick lodged in Cora’s throat, and yet, I couldn't get the nauseating image out of my head.At least when I didn't hate her this much and Kai hated her genuinely, I didn't care what he did with her, I even enjoyed watching it whenever he made sure I was present. But now that I knew how he felt for her?It made me want to pull at my hair until every single strand was pulled off my scalp.Oh, and there's the painful fact that he couldn't get an erection with me and had barely touched me, but he looked rock hard and his entire body was pulsating with pleasure as she sucked him off. That hurt like a motherfucker, especially because my sexual prowess had never been challenged.And the women who’d tried? I’d killed them.All Cora had to do now was wait her turn, it’d be fucking gruesome.“Ma’am, here’s the brewed rosewater and pastries” My personal maid announced as she set down two tea kettles, a tea cup set and some iced cupcakes.“W

    Cora’s POVWhy the fuck is my heart beating like there’s a sick drum medley going on in my head? I've been to a shady meeting before. Twice even—granted, the second time was because he used Nina as bait, but that's when we officially became partners, so it definitely counts.So, if I’d sat through meetings without so much as wondering if the mystery person next to me would turn around and gut me, it only meant that something had changed this time around.I knew what had changed, why I was nervous about another meeting that’d signify how much closer I was to getting my revenge—to ending Kai’s life and achieving the feat that’d kept me alive for the last few months.Even now, as I pushed the door of the chapel open, that feeling of dread tugged at my insides and just like every other time before now, I shoved it down knowing fully well that my feeble emotions meant nothing in comparison to getting revenge for my precious deceased pack.For my father who I’d watched meet a shameful end.

    Kai’s POV“Alpha?” The words sounded like they’d been whispered from another dimension.“Alpha Kai, can you hear me?” The same distant, buzzing tone threatened my peace again.More incessant chattering followed, words that I couldn’t make sense of.Then it stopped, but I couldn’t go back into the state of nothingness that I’d been in after overdosing on the sleeping potion Leila delivered upon my request yesterday afternoon. The same afternoon that I’d felt like my body and brain had conspired against me, the real me—not the angry, merciless beast, no.The one that cared deeply about Cora. The one that hadn’t realized that he’d rather die than hurt her until he saw his palm imprinted on her right cheek yesterday.“Kai?” The voice sounded painfully strained this time around.“God, will he be okay?” Another voice, a shaky and breathless one.I was fully awake now, and the voices around me were beginning to fucking piss me off—I just wanted to enjoy a fucking nap and forget about the hea

    Cora’s POV“Are you lot fucking kidding me?” I was blinking furiously with my mouth agape, I couldn't believe the sight before me.When Nina had come running to me where I was feeding the horses, I was wondering what happened that would’ve caused her to run so frantically. Even when I did ask, she’d only said “you have to see it for yourself” breathlessly and dragged me back to the room with her.“You’re deaf? Is that it?” I left the doorway and walked towards the guards who were hastily gathering everything I owned into a pile.They didn’t pay me any mind, they just kept packing up my things and carrying them out of the room. To say i was shocked would be an understatement, I was gobsmacked as they walked by me and two other guards remained to gather the rest.I was convinced that they had empty coconut shells for brains because there was the option of packing my belongings into one huge carry-on or box, but they decided to come in their numbers and carry them scattered?

    Kai’s POVI watched the young spell caster’s hands tremble as she murmured a spell under her breath, I knew it was because she feared me but I hoped that it wouldn't interfere with the spell.“Any Idea what the problem is yet?” I asked impatiently and she locked her nervous eyes with me before shaking her head.Another No, the fourth one in the last forty minutes.“Try again!” I snapped at her and she flinched before nodding quickly and shutting her eyes to recite the spell again.The moment I walked out of Cora’s room, I’d gone on a frantic search to find Leila, overturning every room in the palace that I thought she’d be in, but there was no sign of her. I knew that if anyone could figure out what was wrong with me and how to fix it, it’d be her.When I wasn’t able to find her, my frustration easily morphed into anger and I stormed off to the training room where the spell casters under her.

    Kai’s POV“Nina, stay” Cora held unto her friend’s arm tightly and practically pinned her on the spot.Nina.Mystery maid’s name was Nina.“Cora, five minutes” I wanted to plead but I wasn't even sure how to, men like me never cared enough about anybody’s feelings to learn how to deliver a simple apology.“Too long, I’d kick you out the second the lies left your lips” She didn't let her eyes meet mine no matter what.“I’m not leaving until we talk, and I’m not talking with her here” I folded my arms stubbornly—in the same manner she usually did—and leaned comfortably against the walls.Cora balled her fists furiously at her sides and the frown lines on her forehead became deeper, like I’d set off a level of anger she was oblivious to having. The mystery ma—no, Nina leaned into her and whispered something in her ears that caused Cora’s tenses shoulders to visibly relax before she let go of her arm.“I’ll excuse you now, Alpha” She bowed as she walked past me and left the room.I should

    Cora’s POV“Bitch, if you don’t get back in there!” Nina caught me just before I could sneak out to Kai’s chambers. “Man, you’re such a cockblocker,” I blew a raspberry at her and rolled my eyes in annoyance before stepping back into the room. “It’s bad luck for the groom to see his bride while she’s fully dressed and you know it,” she entered right after me. Maybe If I’d snuck out the second after she left I’d have met up with Kai for a quickie and I’d be back before she could come and spew rubbish myths to keep me away from him. “That’s a myth and whoever came up with it is clearly a hater!” I sunk into my chair, fully dressed in the most stunning wedding dress I’d ever seen all my life. “I’ll let you get away with that only because it’s your wedding day,” Nina chucked a purple flower in her hair to match her chief bridesmaid’s dress. “It’s my wedding day!” I squealed so loudly that Nina had to use both palms to block her eyes while smiling at me. I still couldn’t believe it.

    Kai’s POVLevi’s pain strengthened me even more, he had no idea.“In your next life, when you get an opportunity to kill your enemy, don’t be an egoistic bastard by waiting to organize a lousy ceremony first and just fucking do it!” I gave him the last piece of valuable advice he’d ever get.“C-Cora….” tears dropped down his face as he fixed his desperately pleading eyes on my woman.“You brought this on yourself, Levi. I’d never have grown to love or trust a man that could betray someone he’d sworn an oath of eternal loyalty to, it just meant that you could switch up on me someday too,” she surprised me by intertwining her fingers with my bloody ones as she spoke.“I could never ever betray you, Cora. You’re my fated true love, and it’s not too late to leave this deceitful monster and save me,” my blood began to boil all over again as I watched him plead with her.I gave him one fatal blow to the jaw and he dropped to the floor groaning.“Stop fucking talking to her, you dead meat!”

    Levi’s POVIt was today.The day I’d watch Kai meet an embarrassing end just before all of his power was transferred to my deserving arms. The gods knew that I would’ve been better suited to be blessed with his boundless abilities and fate had finally turned things in my favor.“Are you prepared for the ritual?” I practically whispered as I bent towards the elderly men that were meant to perform the soul swapping ritual.They dropped their hoods at the same time and nodded in a slow synchronized movement, “As prepared as the gods permits their servants to be.”Creepily, that was also said in unison before the covered their hoods again in one swift motion and walked off towards the lifted stage where Kai’s body would be placed for the public execution. As weird and disturbing as their identical movements were, it didn’t deplete my excitement about the execution ceremony.“Welcome all,” I stood to my feet as I began to address the hundreds of people in attendance.“You have come from lan

    Levi’s POVI knocked on Cora’s door again when I didn’t get a response.“It’s me Levi, are you in?” I called out.A few seconds passed and then I heard a door open that signified that she must’ve been in the bathroom when I knocked earlier.“I’ll be right there, give me a minute,” her sweet voice called out and I nodded even though she couldn’t see me.I tapped my feet on the floor as I waited for her, and then finally she pulled the door open.“You wanna come in?” she moved aside as she pulled the door open.Her hair looked a bit wet, her cheeks were glistening like they’d been oiled and she was wearing the most adorable little pink dress paired with white cute flats. Even before now, I was always eager to see what she’d wear every single day, but it was more fulfilling now because she was all mine to ogle.“Nah, there’s something I have to show you,” I grabbed her wrist and began leading her away from the room.“You mind telling me where we’re headed?” she finally asked after we’d ta

    Levi’s POV“Has she gotten the bouquets?” I asked the maid that I’d sent on an errand earlier.“Yes, sir. I delivered them first thing in the morning,” she answered with a bow and I waved her off.The morning of the day we’d overpowered Kai, I remembered watching him gather flowers after he’d thought I left on a tax collecting trip. I watched him make them into a huge bouquet and I was pretty irritated that he thought flimsy flowers would fix all the damage he’d done to Cora when he regarded her as an enemy.However, it had given me a brilliant Idea.I decided that I’d send a bouquet or more to Cora’s room every morning with a heart warming note just to remind her of how precious she was to me. She never failed to thank me for it at breakfast and it made my heart swell. I loved that I’d finally gotten the chance to woo her and I knew I’d do a far better job than Kai could ever have.Speaking of that monster, Kai, I was skipping breakfast to go and see him in the dungeon, to see how muc

    Cora’s POVI woke up in a pool of my own sweat.My eyes searched the room to see if the beast in my dreams had crossed into reality by some chance for an opportunity to continue torturing me, but I was lucky that that hadn't happened. The only other person in the room was Nina, not a grizzly monster.She was curled up into a ball on her mattress and she was buried so far into the duvet that I could only see her eyes and a bit of her forehead. And yes, she was crashing here because of the nightmares.The same horrid nightmares that had been recurring for a while now.After the first two nights, I’d told Nina about it because she noticed the heavy eye bags underneath my eyes and then she’d scolded me for not speaking up earlier before gathering most of her things and moving into my room.Oh, trust me, I protested. I assured her that it wouldn't happen again, but she gave me the ‘this isn't up for debate’ look and did as she pleased.Carefully, I moved off the bed and walked over to sit a

    Kai’s POVI could smell her, so I knew she was near.Her scent was refreshing and intoxicating and I wished I could drown myself in it one last time, just once. I knew I looked like absolute crap but I was still eager to see her, to look at her and search her eyes for any feelings of remorse, to find out if the memories we shared meant anything to her.As much as my determination to kill Levi for betraying me was one of my driving forces for staying alive, the primary reason that I hadn't let my spirit break was because I was desperate to see Cora again.Delusions aside, I was ready to break my chains and make things right with her.I tuned my ears to the sounds of her footsteps as she neared, heels clacking on the cemented hallway she was walking down to reach the torture dungeon.One might tag me as a helpless fool, but I felt a tad excited to gaze upon her stunning face again.“You look like shit,” was the first thing that left her lipstick clad lips as she pulled the door of the d

    As I walked behind her toward the dining hall, I couldn't help but admire every single detail that was in my view.Her body was clad tightly in a lovely purple dress—a color that signified royalty which was what she’d finally become now that Kai was put away— that made my insides ache as her full hips swayed in it, her legs were being carried in black heels that made her look elegant, and her hands were accessorized with pure golden bangles that matched the necklace she was wearing.The only thing that was out of place was the crystal bracelet that rested in between the golden bangles, but that didn't matter.All that mattered was that she’d dressed up for me.I remember how incredibly jealous I usually felt whenever she dressed up for Kai, especially because she was always so gorgeous and she still treated her like bird poop. I’d never make her feel that way, how could I even dare?“Have I mentioned how stunning you look tonight, Cora?” I asked as we finally stepped into the dining h

    Levi’s POVKai’s face? Priceless.The mere fact that he’d been cocky enough to assume that I’d be blindly loyal to him despite how much of a monster he was made it glaringly obvious that he was nothing but a muscled idiot. So, seeing the shock on his face when he realized that I’d betrayed him was far more rewarding than I’d thought it’d be.Nothing could've prepared me for how powerful and satisfied I’d been when I saw him looking raggedy and helpless in chains.He’d brought his miserable fate upon himself and I was beyond pleased that the moon goddess had chosen me to put him in his place. I strongly believed that everything was set in stone on the very day that Kai had unintentionally exposed his weakness to me.I still recall that day like it was an hour ago.Kai had been drunk to stupor after our first major win, we’d conquered an army of almost a hundred and fifty thousand werewolves with an army of only two hundred werewolves.
