Princess Katie Anne

~<>~

“What happened between you both?” I asked Davien after Kyle slammed my bedroom door like a child.

“Nothing much.” Davien shrugged and bent down to pick up the duvet and pillow on the floor. My brows furrowed, another question swelling in my mind even though he still hadn’t answered the first one I asked him. But he did eventually, saying, “He just made me realize that I have a lot to get used to around here.”

Although I didn’t understand what he said, I blurted, “You slept on the floor?”

Davien nodded, and I exclaimed, “Why? Did I ask you to?”

I couldn’t stop myself from wondering if I did that before I fell asleep last night.

“You didn’t ask me to sleep on the floor, Princess Katie. I chose to sleep there because I assumed I was still a stranger to you even though we share a bond. You didn’t know me until yesterday. I had to respect your privacy.” Davien answered rigidly, addressing me with my title even though I had already told him not to.

  • Chasing His Betrayed Luna   Chapter 23: Beautiful Future

    DAVIEN~~The day had just begun, and I was already unsure of how the rest of the day would turn out. Waking up to find Alpha Prince Kyle in my mate’s bed was only one of the unexpected surprises, and I must confess that feeling Katie’s lips on mine was my favorite unexpected incident.Her lips molded against mine like they were my long-lost piece. Instantly, my lungs gave way to a deep groan, and my hands itched to touch this bold woman. I had never felt like this with any woman.If I were being honest, I would say I had never kissed a woman before.Yes, this was my first kiss, and as Katie pressed her lips against mine, I feared she would discover that I was inexperienced. Would I be seen as man enough if I didn’t live up to her sexual expectations?What are her expectations, and on what experiences are they based?Could she have—Focus, Davien!I scolded myself. A first kiss should be memorable, so I should burn this moment into my memory.Slowly, I let my hands sneak all the way

  • Chasing His Betrayed Luna   Chapter 24: The Former Beta

    Princess Katie Anne~~If there was any place I felt confident and powerful, it would be in the training arena or any training field where I could demonstrate myself freely. Although the last war recorded in the history of the realm was the one my mom fought with Larisa, the dark witch, and also Alpha Tristan, someone I once loved, I have been decorated as the best female warrior after my mom.Also, I participated in the Quinquennial Pack Games, where I won many awards and, with the help of other warriors in the pack, brought the trophy home for my pack. I have participated twice: when I was ten and when I was fifteen. The goddess knew I had been looking forward to the next one.“I don’t understand why anyone would choose violence over fighting with spiritual strength," Zuri clamored within me as soon as I stepped into the arena.Of course, she could feel the excitement flowing through me, and as her words resonated in my head, I rolled my eyes. I was about to respond, but Zoe beat m

  • Chasing His Betrayed Luna   Chapter 25: The Unexpected

    Princess Katie Anne~~“Today will be easy because you are just recovering. If you didn't have to begin spiritual training immediately, I wouldn't have asked you to join us.”My mom had said it was time, confirming that today would simply be a preview, but that didn’t make it easier. At some point, I found myself asking, “Why do I have to train spiritually, Mom? What if I don’t have the skills?”“You have abilities, Katie. How else would you have predicted the sex of your brothers? How else would you have been able to create such a strong bond with Dolf? How else would you have a pure white wolf who radiates pure energy?”My mom retorted, pointing out some of the exceptional things I had done when I was younger. She even added, “The only reason you aren’t skilled when it comes to your abilities is because you didn’t start training early. You were obsessed with training physically. Plus, I didn’t know how to be a mother to a young girl who could be just like me or completely differen

  • Chasing His Betrayed Luna   Chapter 26: Against the Wall

    Princess Katie Anne~~My twin brother has always been afraid of the dark. To be honest, I couldn't recall when that fear began, but I knew it had something to do with Larisa—the crazy woman who almost tore our family apart. The details are blurry in my mind, but I remember that she kidnapped Kyle at some point, and even though my parents lied to me about Kyle’s whereabouts, as I grew up, I realized the truth. However, Kyle and I never spoke about that day, despite how many times he had been haunted in his sleep.Our parents don't know about Kyle’s nightmares because he didn't want them to worry, but I knew, and that’s the reason I wasn’t surprised that Davien found Kyle in my bed that morning.What surprised me was finding Kyle in the darkness that his room had become. I was the dark princess with a dark-themed room, while Kyle made sure his room had enough space and light. So this was new.And so was the strong smell of alcohol that invaded my nostrils as I stepped into my brother’

  • Chasing His Betrayed Luna   Chapter 27: Alpha Prince Kyle’s POV (5)

    Alpha Prince Kyle’s POV~~ Anger wasn’t the first emotion that I thought I would feel when Katie finally used her hidden abilities; neither did I think disappointment would be my second emotion in this situation. Heck! I should be happy right now and celebrating with my sister, but how could she read my thoughts when she knew I always dropped my guard around her? Before now, she was the only normal person in my family, but I guess unlocking her powers meant she would no longer be like me—the plain normal one.I was alone.“Will you just stop it? You aren’t alone, Kyle. I will always be here for you and with you.” Katie countered, doing the same thing again. “What part of Leave Me Alone did you not hear?” I spat, unable to control my emotions, which had been spiraling since I perceived Camila as my mate in the library. ”If you are going to invade my mind, please leave. I don’t have the strength to put up a wall right now.”At this point, living within these walls and with these pe

  • Chasing His Betrayed Luna   Chapter 28: A Happier Man

    DAVIEN~~“You are a long way from home.”The former Beta of my birth pack, Louis, who, despite living away from home for over a decade, remains a legend. Stories about him and Alpha Tristan have been told over and over again, and I have seen my dad trying so hard to fit into the enormous shoes that this duo left behind.To the rest of the realm, Alpha Tristan was the villain who stood with the witch Larisa, and Beta Louis was a betrayal, but somehow, the people of Black Fur had moved past that and have come to respect them, especially Beta Louis, because he restored our home and dignity and gave up control of the pack so we could start afresh.Maybe he wouldn’t have done that if he knew that the so-called fresh start would be my dad—I mean, he was lacking in so many ways, and someday, the rest of the realm would know this fact.“You’ve been away from home for many years.” I countered as Louis and I walked toward the shade in the arena.For hours, he had been showing me how to find m

  • Chasing His Betrayed Luna   Chapter 29: Start Over

    Princess Katie Anne~~My heart went out to Kyle, and I knew it wouldn’t be easy to stay away from Camila, but I also knew Kyle would do everything to make sure he did. This was me helping him and also getting my way. No one said I couldn’t kill two birds with one stone. I have done that many times in the past. “So this is it.” I chimed with a smile, knowing that Davien and Kyle were anxiously waiting to hear me out. The suspense was killing them, but I was enjoying this. “I have come to understand that you both need each other and the good news I have is to help you both bond better–” “Why do I have to bond with him?” Davien was quick to mutter, looking down at me. I mean that literally because he was taller than me.I made use of my famous pout that had worked on all the men in my life, starting with my dad and ending with Kennedy. “Because he is my brother, Davien.” Davien stared at me for the longest minute before he sighed defeatedly. “Fine.” The power of my pout. I didn’t

  • Chasing His Betrayed Luna   Chapter 30: Alpha Prince Kyle's POV (6)

    Alpha Prince Kyle ~~Oh, dear goddess!Shopping?What was he? An attention-seeking princess? Even if he were, I still wouldn’t go shopping with him. He should ask Katie and Elora–I ceased thinking in that minute as my eyes fell on Katie’s pale face. I didn’t need to be a mind reader to know she was thinking about how I would reject her mate without thinking twice. After all, she knew that I wouldn’t go shopping with anyone. My clothes and shoes get delivered to my room after I place orders online, and most likely, Ma does the shopping for me. I was a proud mama’s boy.But in that instant, I knew I couldn’t ruin this for Katie. I wouldn’t want to make her worry about me after I shut her mate down just because he mentioned shopping. “Goddess, I hate this.” Rio clamored, protesting within me as soon as he felt one of my core resolves faltering. I said to my wolf, my gaze shifting from Katie’s pale face to Davien’s bright one—he was so clueless, “I hate this too, but look at those

  • Chasing His Betrayed Luna   86. A Good Sign?

    Princess Katie Anne~~“I won’t let them treat you like this.”I seethed as the tension around us thickened, even though the crowd was still cheering. Davien’s hold around my waist became tighter, and I knew he didn’t want me to lash out, but I had had enough of this.How could they treat him like he didn’t exist, even in a ceremony? Amber had a seat to herself, and so did Damien, who wouldn’t stop staring at me like the creep he was. His parents also dared to flash those false smiles my way, walking over to clearly show me to my seat.“Thank you for joining us, Princess Katie,” Alpha Jarrett uttered with a light voice, and cheers echoed through the hall as members of the Black Fur Pack jubilated.However, I wasn’t merry like the rest of them, and with every second that passed, it became harder to pretend.“Please sit, Princess.” As expected, Luna Cynthia pointed at the only empty seat on the higher platform in the hall.Zoe barked within me, “The audacity!”My wolf’s anger only fue

    DAVIEN~~“That can’t be,” Katie whispered as she staggered into the bedroom, her face pale and hands trembling.I picked up the bag Jade had dropped, followed Katie into our bedroom, and locked the door behind me.“She really is dead?” She asked me, horror etched into her stormy blue eyes.I nodded, shocked that Katie didn’t know that Aunt Jessica had died thirteen years ago. My mate collapsed on the bed, and I knelt before her, holding her hand and telling her to breathe.“To protect Katie and Kyle, Aurelia hid the news of Jessica’s death from them. I also don’t know the full story, but I am at fault because of the part I played. Larisa might have pulled the trigger that killed Jessica, but I put her in the position to get killed for my selfish desires,” Dolf said to me, taking on the blame even though we all knew he had nothing to do with everything that went down thirteen years ago.“You mean it’s all Tristan’s fault. You can’t take the blame, Dolf, and it wasn’t right for Jade

  • Chasing His Betrayed Luna   84: The Perfect Dress

    Princess Katie Anne~~Davien and I woke up late in the afternoon. While Davien had more than enough reason to sleep for as long as we did, I didn’t have any because—“You have more than enough reasons, too, Katie. Have you forgotten what Davien did to you before you both slept?” Zoe asked before shoving explicit images of Davien fucking me into my mind as if I didn’t live that memory a few hours ago.I turned red and threw the covers over my face while Davien went to answer the door. Fortunately for whoever was at the door, Davien and I woke up before he or she could disrupt the peace we worked hard to achieve.I wouldn’t have forgiven the person at the door if they had woken Davien, regardless of the reason.“Hey, Jade. Why are you here?” The familiarity and affection in Davien’s voice didn’t go unnoticed.Zuri chimed through the mind link, “I thought he said he didn’t have a friend here? Who is Jade, and why does he smell as happy as he sounds?”Call me jealous, but I was out of

  • Chasing His Betrayed Luna   83: Hard and Fast

    Princess Katie Anne~~My mate was struggling. I could sense that fact all through the night, but I had to pretend like I didn’t because I didn’t know how to help him. The second I opened my eyes this morning and saw his face, I knew he didn’t get enough sleep or maybe didn’t get to sleep at all.It was at that point that I knew I had to find a way to help him escape the demons that haunted him in his sleep. It’s only been a night in Black Fur, and he already looked like shit. I couldn’t let his family think for a minute that they were getting to him.“What if I take the memories away?” I blurted before I could stop myself.Damien, who had just rolled out of bed, stopped dead in his tracks and looked at me with his brows raised. “Huh?”“I don’t really know how, but I know Grandma Iris performed a trick that erased Kyle’s memories after he was rescued from Larisa. I can call her, ask her how to do it, and do the same for you so you can have peace, Davien.”I tried to explain to my ma

  • Chasing His Betrayed Luna   82: Favorite Son

    DAVIEN~~Of course, the right-hand side of the father. Of our father.Since we were young but old enough to understand power and the amount that came with being the pack's next Alpha, Damien had made himself our dad’s right hand, and our dad made it easier for him to do that since he was the favorite child.Usually, I would have chosen to sit at the foot of the table or eat alone, but since my dad was invited to dinner and asked to sit right here by my dad, I should have known Damien would have a problem with that.“He is so full of himself,” Dolf grumbled within me, almost showing himself and just how powerful he was, even though we had both agreed to keep him a secret for as long as possible.My family still didn’t know I had a wolf, and when they found out, I knew it would change everything. My brother would most likely see me as a threat for the first time since we were born.“Wait till they find out I am your wolf,” Dolf chuckled as Katie’s response to Damien echoed through th

  • Chasing His Betrayed Luna   81: Far From Home

    Princess Katie Anne~~Speaking to my family over the phone was new. I had never had to communicate with them through any form of technology, but since I was far from them and wouldn’t be able to use the mindlink, I had to settle for my cellphone, which I hardly used before now.“I have to go now, Dad. It’s dinnertime here, and it would be rude to keep the leaders of this pack waiting for me,” I said to my dad, who had refused to end the call.He wasn’t the only one who took ages before passing the phone to someone else. Every one of my siblings, except Kyle, who wasn’t with the family currently, wouldn’t let the phone go, and they also wouldn’t put it on speaker so I could talk to everyone simultaneously.My mom, being her sacrificial and understanding self, let the phone go after she made sure I was fine, but of course, my dad had to say, “I am sure they can wait. You are the princess, and you are talking to your dad. You know? The King?”“That’s just being cocky, Dad.” I laughed

  • Chasing His Betrayed Luna   80: Ferocious Cat

    DAVIEN~~My Ferocious CatGoddess! I was so right when I referred to my mate as that. She was everything a ferocious cat should be—meek, calculative, elegant, beautiful, and deadly. She could be a domesticated cat, but one should never mistake that for weakness, because she was naturally a wild one, even in bed.Yeah, seeing and hearing her insult Damien had my balls tightening. I could see the bear in me surfacing, ready to rip Katie’s clothes to shreds as soon as we got to our room—“This is your room, Princess Katie,” my mom announced, and I knew better than to ignore the fact that she called it Katie’s room and not OUR room. My mom confirmed that her choice of words wasn’t a mistake when she added, “You can stay in your old room after you help the princess settle in, Dave.”Katie was quick to say, “We will be staying in the same room, Luna Cynthia.”My mom smiled sheepishly and muttered, “There are many rooms in the mansion, Princess. You can have all the privacy you need, and D

  • Chasing His Betrayed Luna   79: My Birthright

    Princess Katie Anne~~“Next Luna?” A high-pitched, contentious voice struck my eardrums despite the cheers of the pack members, and just like that, my first opposition, who couldn’t hide her hate, stepped forward, standing confidently with her head high in the air.She stated, her amber eyes piercing my skull before they shifted between Alpha Jarrett and Luna Cynthia, “I believe that title is mine. It’s my birthright and—”“Now is not the time, Amber,” Alpha Jarrett scolded her, but that didn’t kill the flame in Amber’s eyes.Clearly, she didn’t respect him, and while I kept staring at her to see if I would recognize her from when I was younger, Zoe chimed into my mind, “Amber eyes, and she was named Amber. Her parents didn’t even try.”I didn’t get the joke, but somehow Zuri did, and she chuckled with Zoe, both of them effortlessly mocking Amber.“When will the time be, Alpha? The pack is gathered, and you just announced that a brat who left the pack many years ago, only to return

  • Chasing His Betrayed Luna   78: Next Luna

    Princess Katie Anne~~I could feel my heart racing even though I tried to hide it and control the rush of emotions that attacked my nervous system the second we drove into Black Fur pack.Somewhere at the back of my mind, I could see my younger self giggling as we drove out of Black Fur. I could see the big smile on my face because I was excited to leave the pack for the first time in my life.I recalled holding my mom and Kyle while my little mind rapidly took in the possibility of adventure that awaited us, even though I didn’t know half of the thoughts that were racing through my mom’s mind that day.I bet she was terrified that day, but she kept a strong face for Kyle and me. Now, it was my turn to be strong for Davien and my family.As Garrick drove the car towards the Alpha’s mansion, following Davien’s direction, I tried to look around, searching for some sort of familiarity, even though I knew recognizing anything or anyone from my childhood here would stir up my emotions.
