Author's POV"My lady, your-""Get out!" Sherry raged in anger as she sat up on the bed.The maid scurried out of the room immediately like a scared rat. Her nasty temper had aggravated since she got back from Nik's Pack even her father felt the terrible brunt of it.She looked around wildly until her eyes fell upon the large window that dominated the front of their room. She'd forgotten to close it last night and now it stood open with its curtains flapping in the cold autumn breeze. The late morning light streamed into the room and shone on the floor. Food was the last thing on her mind especially when she had barely slept a wink the night before. That could wait while she set her other plans in motion. She could only eat well when she got rid of Noya.Ruffling her hair in anger, she groaned and leaned back on the bed. Waiting for feedback from her spy in the Packhouse was as frustrating as hell but in order for her plans to work out perfectly, she knew she had to wait.But this wa
Noya's povHe gently pushed me towards the bed and kissed me with a great fervency. I kissed him back hungrily, desperately. It was a kiss of hunger and desire. My lips were hungry for his kisses, my body for his touches, my love for him, all my love for him. My body yearned for his touch, my soul yearned for him. And he returned my passion in an equally desperate way. We needed each other so much, we couldn't control it.As he pinned me beneath him and kissed me with such fervour, I thought my heart would stop from the sheer joy of being alive. My fingers trailed up and down his strong, muscled back as I pressed myself against him.He made a low groan. The warmth of his skin against mine made my head reel. As he kissed my neck and shoulder, I could feel myself getting hotter and wetter. As he sucked at my neck and bit it lightly I gasped and felt a wave of warmth flood over me. His touch burned and my heart thundered. My mind spun with pleasure as I ran my fingers through his hair
Author's POVThe crescent moon hung up in the dark blue sky illuminating the dark path that led up to the top of the tall tower. The air was chilly as it brushed against her cheeks and on her bare arms were goosebumps raising from the chill and the night wind blew softly against her face. Her feet were already cold and numb in her boots and she shivered involuntarily and pulled a blanket tighter around herself. There was no one else out here at this hour and there wasn’t any reason to be out of her room in the middle of the night. Maybe not to the devil but to Sherry, the woman who had set her sights on the Alpha and was willing to do anything to make him hers.The crickets and the bell chimes seemed so loud but the silence didn’t bother her so much as the fact that she couldn’t hear anything especially when she had sold her soul to the devil.She strode towards the labyrinth.

On days like these when Niklaus wasn't around, he had to be at alert to ensure that the Pack and Packhouse were safe.Although there were soldiers at the border, Rowan still couldn't let their guard down. It was very risky especially since they had a lot of enemies and friends likewise however due to the deep fear the other surrounding Packs had for Niklaus, it was more of respect and fear. No one dared cross his path because they knew the consequences. "Good even, Beta." Two guards on patrol greeted him."Good evening Ethan. Good evening Jeffrey. How are you today?" He offered them a smile."We are doing good, thank you." They offered him a smile."Were you able to rest during the day in preparation for night patrol?" "Yes." Jeffrey replied."Alright then. Goodnight." He patted them and waved them off.A smile formed on Rowan's face as he ascended the tower slowl
Author's POVImmediately she swirled around to realise that it was Beta Rowan, her breath hitched in her throat but she had slowly maneuvered him from the truth.As she watched him retreat to go welcome the Alpha, relief flooded the banks of her soul.

Noya’s POV Help. Somebody help. I trailed my hands on the bed, dipping my fingertips into the blanket before turning on my side. ‘You need to wake up now, Noya. Your destiny awaits you. Go now.’ Feeling a gentle nudge, I snapped out of my dream and sat up on the bed immediately. What was that dream all about and Who was the woman in my dream? I curled my hands around my small frame while trying to remember the dream. I racked my brain hard but I couldn’t remember anything except those last words. “Ouch.” I gritted my teeth when a splitting pain coursed through her head. I gripped my head with my hands trying to relieve the throb I felt. A loud groan pierced through my thoughts and I shuddered. ‘What the hell was happening? And where did the noise come from?’ I ran my hands over my face before getting up from the bed. I could still hear the cries and clanging of swords in my head. It felt like a dream and it left me confused. Reaching for the brown door by my right, I opened i
Niklaus's Pov"Die!!"I yelled, thrusting the sword into the Alpha's chest. Even at that, I didn't feel my anger dissipate.It was still there like the raging fire refusing to go out even though it was running. My chest heaved with every breath as if a knife was twisting around inside me and trying to tear it open, leaving my insides raw from the effort of keeping it closed.I had killed the Alpha of the pack and his Luna, but still, I felt empty. I wanted to kill, I wanted to maim. I wanted to alter the cause of lives just like mine was.Looking at the surroundings, I noticed that the havoc that my men had caused had already reached an unprecedented level. The buildings and everything were in ruin, everybody in the Pack was already dead already and still, it didn't appease the burning fire raging inside me like a raging volcano threatening to spill over.This wouldn't do. I still wanted to kill. To murder more people until her sweet face and her last words to me no longer taunted me.
Noya's PovMy fate had long been decided as I had been caught. I didn't even bother to struggle again. I was bundled up and thrown into a cage. I had little or no choice. I scanned the mighty army before me led by the monster who was no doubt their Alpha.I had imagined him to look like a monster since he was a monster but when I met his gaze. He was the most handsome man I had ever seen. His skin glowed with health and his dark brown eyes gleamed with life.His raven black hair hung loose to his shoulders and his long eyelashes framed a sharp face. I had never met any other man quite like him before. He radiated vitality from every pore of his body as his eyes bore through me, making me feel naked before him. I wondered if he could read my thoughts.While I took in his handsome sculpted face, something clicked in me. He should have been dripping blood on his arm since my mother had inflicted an injury on him before her last breath. However, when I directed my gaze to his arm, everyth

Noya's POV"This is beautiful” I breathed out softly. “Let's go sit under the tree by the pond.” He tugged gently on my hand until I turned and started following him down towards the stream, where I saw our spot. I smiled as he took my hand again and led me over to the small clearing where there was a large oak tree with a wide branch extending downwards over the water. We sat down, leaning back against it. It looked much easier than walking over a lot of rocky ground, but the fact of the matter remained that it did take us quite some time to get this far so I didn't complain. I could see the light reflecting off the trees when a stray breeze pushed through some of the canopy. It felt like being in another world. I thought that perhaps I should call it magical, but really, I just felt happy that there we were alone. The sun was warm on the top of our heads, and I was content. The weather was perfect. My heart thumped with pleasure as I snuggled against his warmth.Nik wrapped
Author's POV"See her off to the border." She watched Nik command the guards who stood before me.Sherry crunched her fists in anger wishing she had done more than slap the tramp who caused her paim, torture and disgrace but it could wait. For now the only thing that mattered was her safety as she traveled back home."Nik." She called out to him but he ignored her and strode into the Packhouse. Seething in rage, Sherry bit her lower lip. She could not even wish him goodbye."You may go in, Lady Sherry." A guard urged her.She got into the carriage and sat down feeling humiliated that Nik had punished her for a worthless maid. Why did he love her so much? It made her sick.After trying on so many occasions to make him like her, she had almost given up thinking that his love for Emily was eternal. And she had even planned to go back to her father's Pack when she discovered that Noya, an ordinary maid, was his lover.It irked her that after waiting for so long, Noya had gotten him before
Noya's POVI cracked my knuckles as I took slow strides toward Sherry's room to begin the day's duty. It had been two good weeks but I still had no idea as to when she'd leave but since I was already used to it, I kept quiet.Niklaus also had a lot to deal with. If Sherry's attitude was all I had to put up with to relieve his burden then I would gladly do so. I pushed the door back and walked into the room to find her clothes all scattered across the room.Two can play the game.Humming a song, I closed the door and began folding the clothes. When I was done, I took them to the wardrobe to arrange them and get myself busy with something productive. Maybe reading a book.The thought excited me. The door burst open revealing Sherry who traipsed in with her usual hard countenance."Good morning, Sherry." I flashed a smile at her."Why are you folding those when they are dirty?" She hissed.I shifted my gaze to the clothes in my hands to inspect them. "I washed these clothes yesterday."
Niks povMy tongue traced along her bottom lip as I slid myself into her. I moved her knees apart to allow me full access. I kissed my way down her body, kissing her breasts, running my hands down her ribcage to the base of her hips. Finally, I reached her clit, swirling my finger around it, feeling it jolt slightly under my touch.She melted into the kiss deepening our kiss with an almost predatory hunger as she wrapped her arms around my neck pulling me closer. I pressed myself against her with a slight moan of desire and she moaned. My hand trailed down over the curve of her hip gently feeling the softness of her skin underneath as I continued to stroke the side of her body in slow caresses. She gasped, her breath coming out hot and quick in my mouth as she arched upwards towards me, my tongue lapping at the bottom lip of hers as if trying to take it. I slipped my fingers under the hem of her gown to cup her breasts, rubbing them lightly, causing her to arch further up against me
