Elora's POV

With that thing in mind, I went with just giving her a simple greeting. I smiled at her and curtsied. I wasn’t expecting all will be well in a flash but I would certainly try to be more respectful and civil with her from now on. I hoped that my simple acknowledgment of her authority was enough to patch up things between us...at least for now.

With that, I started walking past her. But before I did, she grabbed me in my arms. “Let’s talk.”

It was a simple request but enough to shake my world. She led me to follow her, which I did without asking. We ended up inside her room afterward.

“Have a seat,” she said while gesturing for me to sit in the chair. Tight-lipped, I gave in to her order. My heart was pounding inside my chest. I wondered what things she wanted us to talk about inside this room.

Will she tell me how much she hated me? That I should just disappear in Dominic's life as I didn’t deserve him? That she would never approve of me as her son’s mate?

And If she

    Elora’s POV “The Alpha King shifted in his wolf…and he is trying to kill everyone.” My eyes widened in disbelief. Just last night, Dominic and I were optimistic about the situation. That together, we would tame the beast living inside him. That I would help him control his wolf and everything would be okay. And so we thought. I wasted no time striding outside. I heard Mom call my name, wanting me to calm down and think everything through. But I dismissed her pleas. There was simply no time to think. If we would not hurry, bloodshed was almost certain. My senses suddenly became numb to my surrounding. All I could hear was my shallowed breathing and the loud thudding of my heart. My body shuddered but not because of the autumn breeze blowing throughout the royal pack. Rather, it was due to my immense fear that something bad might happen to Dominic and his beloved people of the royal pack. And once I stepped outside the castle, my worst fear came to life. The once peaceful an

    Elora's POV The royal pack went on finishing the day as they should. Good thing that they supported me in my decision to hide Dominic’s condition from outsiders. I was glad they realized the importance of us rallying together in the preservation of this beloved pack. In times like this, I felt I needed a break. With that, I thought of Maira. A plan brewed inside my head. I would visit my best friend in her quarters. I really missed her and looking forward to spending the rest of the day with her. The smile plastered on my face couldn’t be erased. I was already thinking of the activities that I am excited to do with her. I continued to walk towards the quarter I used to stay with Maira. Finally, I reached the wooden door. I tried not to make a sound as I wanted to surprise her. I slowly turned the knob, almost jumping for joy as it was left unlocked. I took a deep breath and counted from one to three before pushing the door wide open. But instead of surprising my friend, I was th

    Elora’s POVI woke up the next morning feeling happy and satisfied. I took a deep breath as I opened my eyes. Since I accepted Dominic to be my mate, every morning was a gift from the moon goddess. I truly found where I rightfully belong…in the Royal Pack…in his arms…and by his side. I looked to the other side of the bed and there I saw Dominic still sleeping while his arms were wrapped around my waist. I sighed once again as I stared at his handsome face. Dominic looked like an angel when he was asleep. In this state, you will not see the beast that terrorized the whole royal pack yesterday. Remembering this, I patted him to wake up. “Rise and shine, my love. It is time for you to train.” Dominic moaned, eyes still shut while creasing his forehead. He took one of the pillows and hugged it. “Morning already? But it’s still early. Let’s go back to sleep.” He pulled my waist down to lie with him again. I shrieked for a moment but eventually took his hands off of my body. As much as I

    Elora’s POVAs soon as I reached the castle, I went inside one of the guest rooms and locked myself. While I promised Dominic that I would see him immediately after I talk to Samuel, it could wait. The fact that one of the Jackstone trackers brought the letter all the way down to Royal Cavern, I knew that whatever Fritz had written in this letter was a matter of urgency. With that, I had to ensure the contents of this letter would be protected and secured before I could even verify what this letter was about. With that, I opened it. “Dear Elora,” the letter started. I took a deep breath before continuing to read. “Once this letter reached the royal pack, I am already gone.”My heart constricted reading the first line. Is this a goodbye letter? “After years of searching for the rogue leader that killed our parents, I finally located him. I clung to the hope that maybe, what he did to Moon River was an isolated thing. But I was wrong. Instead, he went on terrorizing other packs all t

    Dominic’s POV I was striding back and forth to my office…thinking…pondering…reflecting. I could still smell Elora’s scent from my body before I sent her off with my finest men to save her brother. My mind was all over the place ever since. A question brewed inside my mind: Did I make the right decision? I tweaked my hair in frustration while puffing a heavy sigh. I sat down on the sofa, digging my head into my arms. I thought about what I did earlier, making me utter some curses to the wind. I wanted to shout to express my disappointment with my choice. Because honestly, what I did doesn’t feel right inside. How the fuck did I allow my mate to go knowing how dangerous it would be for her? What the hell am I thinking? For the greater good, some might argue that I have nothing to be remorseful for what I did. I was the Alpha King, after all. The royal pack was my responsibility until the end of the day. The vassal packs who allied to the empire were mine to protect as well. But

    Elora’s POVI woke up with a mild tap on feet. When I opened my eyes, I saw Gamma Ken. “Luna…I mean Lady Elora, I apologize for interrupting your sleep. You need to get up now so we can continue our journey.”“Oh…okay,” I responded. Gamma Ken bowed his head and went out of my tent. Meanwhile, I stretched my arms and did some muscle stretching. It had been a while since I slept on the hard ground so my body was obviously adjusting to it. However, I was still grateful for the White Fang’s effort to make me feel comfortable using our limited resources. I moved out of the tent. I looked around and noticed that the sun hasn’t come out yet. If I were to make a guess, I think it was only around four in the morning. With that, I decided to join the Gamma Team. Looking at them, it was pretty obvious that they were used to living in the woods. Some of them were preparing our makeshift camp for our impending departure while the rest were doing some physical training. They all moved systematic

Or else, we will be dead before sunrise,” uttered the man in a whisper. Hearing his voice, I calmed down. A little over a minute, the man let go of my mouth. I looked up to see who he was. That was when I recognized that the man was none other than Fritz! “Fritz! You’re alive!” I exclaimed. But instead of a thankful reunion, Fritz seemed to have been upset seeing me. “What the hell are you doing here? I thought you were in Royal Cavern?”“I was,” I responded, “until I read your letter.”“How stupid can you be?!” He tried his best not to scream and I could see how much he struggled to lower his voice. “You should have not followed me here. It’s very dangerous!”“So what do you want me to do? Wait for you to die? How do you think I would carry the burden of knowing that you went after death and I did not d

It had grown so big, resembling a watermelon that I had swallowed whole. It wasn't surprising, considering I was carrying Hektor's twins."Calm down, Mommy! Daddy would be here any moment. I am sure he is on his way," he answered. "He is right, Shea. Come on. Let me help you deliver your twins.

Their faces were etched with surprise and disbelief, mirroring the emotions swirling within me."Mom! Dad! Ajax!" I called out, my voice trembling with joy and relief.

Opening the creaky wooden door, I saw Vlad, illuminated by warm light from inside. He looked relieved and proud as he saw me, and his face brightened with a gentle smile."Welcome back, Shea!" Vlad exclaimed happily. "And look who's here to greet you!"Beside Vlad stood a young boy, his eyes wide with curiosity and excitement. My heart skipped a beat."Mommy!" I smiled widely, reaching out my hand to welcome him. Yes, I found out I was pregnant when I left the White Fang Castle five years ago and Bradley was the fruit of it. I knelt down, letting the game fall from my shoulder, and smiled at my little boy.He looked at me intently and reached out to touch my shoulder. "You're really strong, Mommy," he said in awe. I ruffled his hair in return, making him pout. I glanced at Vlad, my eyes filled with gratitude.

    Hektor's POVI can’t believe that five years have flown by…I stand on the balcony of my luxurious chamber, gazing at the vast territory of the Royal Pack. It's like a beautiful painting, with lush greens, towering trees, and colorful wildflowers. Suddenly, I thought about the White Fang Castle.I shut my eyes, remembering it very vividly. The sun's warm rays bathed me in golden light as kept my eyes shut, recalling the grandeur of the castle. The library's scent of old books, the mouthwatering aroma of feasts in the dining hall, and the laughter that echoed through its corridors during celebrations. Memories of my childhood flooded my mind. Ah…the nostalgia it brings. I went back to my room and quickly put on my training clothes. Even though memories of the White Fang Castle still floated in my mind, I felt a sense of comfort in my new home, in the Royal Pack. I decided to focus on the present and leave the past behind as I started my day.Walking through the training ground, a fe

The nightmare had shattered my peace, bringing back haunting memories of my mother's treachery and the twisted acts she forced upon me and Pops. It left me hollow, like an endless abyss of despair.With a heavy sigh, I dragged myself to the bathroom, craving the soothing embrace of a warm shower. The hot water cascaded over me as if trying to wash away my worries and anxiety, even if just for a fleeting moment. But the putrid stench of my mother's lies clung to me, making me cringe in revulsion.Shit! When will this nightmare end? Once the water ceased its gentle flow, my thoughts drifted to Shea, my lovely mate. I rushed out of the bathroom, searching for her possible whereabouts inside our chambers but my search was futile. My mind convinced me she must be in the kitchen, so I rushed there, my heart pounding with a growing sense of dread. I need to see her. Her presence is like a vitamin that I

It turned out that Yamir was nothing more than a pawn, a victim of Ashley's cunning lies. Dad also acknowledged his sacrifice in saving Mom so he showed mercy and granted them a pardon. He even arranged for a proper burial for Yamir, a final act of respect. Mom, on the other hand, remained in a deep slumber, but we were relieved that she was safe and out of harm’s way. Inside the White Fang Castle, we gathered to discuss our uncertain future. We pondered what lay ahead now that Yamir and Ashley were gone, leaving Hektor in charge. While everyone was engrossed in the meeting, I found myself at my mother's bedside, replaying all the cruel words I had hurled at her. Guilt weighed heavily on my heart, and tears streamed down my face as I clutched her hand. I“Mom, can you hear me?” I asked. But she remained motionless, sleeping peacefully
