DRAVEN“He’s dead,” Smythe informed me.“Good job,” I slammed the phone down and turned back to Duron.“Now that it’s settled, it’s time Esme starts participating in other duties as your Luna. Stop caging her,” he told me. I knew that quite alright and didn’t need a reminder from him. She’s had all the time to get used to the palace, now its time for work. But I knew she may not be in her best of moods at this time.She may hate her mate or wish him dead, but the fact remains they were mates and they share a special bond so she was going to feel the pain of loosing a mate. But I wasn’t going to give her time to grieve because time was something I didn’t have to spare. Now that the introduction ceremony is out of the way, she needs to put in more effort in the work around here, hopefully she doesn’t mess things up. And she needs to visit the palace Oracle.I frowned at the thought. The oracle is the only one that can decipher Esme isn’t really my mate. As an oracle of the goddess,

I felt it. The pain of loosing a mate. It started slowly and gradually spread through the whole of my body, twisting my guts. And just as fast as it started, it stopped abruptly. I waited for the feeling of emptiness that I’d heard followed the loss of a mate, but I’d been empty my whole life that it didn’t matter. What I felt in reality was relief. My wolf wasn’t whimpering in my head, she just went quiet. It felt like a burden had been lifted off my shoulders and I started to feel guilty for it. Zayden was my mate, but he was cruel to me, he had a special hatred for me yet he wouldn’t reject me because seeing me suffer gave him a hard-on. I groaned inwardly and sat at the edge of the bed, trying to relieve one good memory we had. But there was nothing but bitterness. Pain. Suffering.I knew I would not be the only one to feel his demise. His father will feel the loss of a child, and Ailana will feel the loss of her brother. Since he wasn’t the ruling alpha, Silver Moon pack will

What in the moon goddess just happened? I stood frozen to the spot, my eyes glued to the window he’d just climbed down from. He’d disappeared in a flash, carrying a wind with him. The office building is several feet tall, how could he manage that? I heard his growl again, the sound causing goose bumps all over my skin and many minutes passed as I stayed rooted to the spot, willing my senses back to life.Did I do sometime wrong? Whatever it is I did to get him this upset, I knew he’d not forgive me easily this time. Even after lying to him, I’d not seen his beast this upset that he’d not been able to hold back.I reflected on the figure of him I’d seen before he jumped through the window. I didn’t see his full shift, but it was scary seeing him grow in height and muscles. Lycans can stand on their two feet as against werewolves, making them taller. But his beast had to be the most scary thing I ever saw even when he hadn’t fully shifted. As the first Lycan, he had the largest beast, a

DRAVENFor many hours straight, my beast was uncontrollable, roaming around, knocking down trees, and growling into the air until midnight came.Day after day, month after month, and year after year, I’d searched for my mate tirelessly. Sometimes, I got fed up and cursed the goddess for making someone so important that I couldn’t claim my inheritance because of her. I’d known for a long time that I had to come up with a plan, but what I didn’t know was that my choices will come back to bite me.I’d found a weak omega, one who tried to take my life and who lied to me again and again. But I knew I needed to use her to get what I wanted. Get the throne, and dispose of her. The same happened to be my mate. It took the death of her mate for it to finally click. What if I’d killed her after she tried to take my life? I growled again.It was all starting to make sense. She is the only woman who I was comfortable enough to sleep in the same bed with, the only woman that could put me to sleep.

ESMERAYI overslept again. I started to rise from the bed, but he tightened his hold on me and pulled me closer against his chest.“Stay,” his eyes were still closed when he spoke, and I was glad he didn’t get to see the redness on my cheeks. It deepened as my eyes rested on his chest and my heart started to hammer all of a sudden. I’d upset him yesterday, for moon goddess knows whatever reason, but Draven didn’t need a reason to be upset. It seems like my slightest movement angered him, or maybe he was angry by default. It wasn’t just me, everything angered him.I’d seen Scarlett in her Lycan form yesterday when we went on a short run, but we had to return early because her mate had started to search for her and she was skeptical about what Draven would do if he found us together. She also said she felt Draven’s angry beast and powerful growls while we were out. Since she was a Lycan and had been sworn in as a member of the Royal palace, she had a bond with him that I didn’t. I was s

There are seven Oracles in the Lycaon palace, but one of them was the most powerful and closest to the moon goddess as everyone believed. Her name is Cordelia. She was a popular oracle, talked about around all werewolf and Lycan packs. As we approached her shrine, goose bumps started to creep up my skin, along with a banging headache. I started to panic. Ever since the incident where Draven got shot, I haven’t had this recurring headache. I wanted to believe it was gone forever but as I started to feel the pain, fear crept in.Draven turned to me and raised a brow as he drove, but I didn’t turn to look back at him, as I feared he may know what’s wrong. He always seemed to sense it whenever this happened and I was going to chuckle when I remembered he’d said I had a gift but the headache didn’t let me.When he stopped in front of the shrine, I was skeptical to step out of the vehicle, but I didn’t have a choice. His furrowed brows told me that he knew something was wrong, so I had to t

“No one is going to hurt her. She is safe here,” Cordelia told Draven who glared at her unsmiling and made no effort to move. “Please. It is mandatory that the goddess speaks to her alone. You know the whole process,” she pleaded when Draven remained unmoving.The room I was in was painted pure white and apart from the large table I was laying on, there wasn’t any other thing in the room.“I’ll have a word with her alone first,” his eyes were unreadable when they settled on me. Cordelia nodded her head adamantly, cast me one more look, and then she was out of the room.“Esmeray,” there was something different about the way he pronounced it. He took few steps close to me and took my left hand in his, his eyes studying my fingers before finally resting on my face “Why do you always keep the truth from me?” he asked. What was he talking about and what was there to tell about the fact that I thought I was crazy and running mad? “You make it hard for me to trust you, little mate,” he added

The next three days were very thorough ones. Preparing to hear from the goddess was very mind draining as I needed to clear all the burdens that plaqued me. In other to communicate with the goddess, I had to be pure in spirit.Cordelia took me through the process step by step, making sure I stuck to the routine prayer every two hours . Prayers of fortification and forgiveness. I also had a shower every four hours and she read some commandments from the goddess from a scroll to me. Apart from water, I had to take a very bitter potion every night and morning. Cordelia explained it’ll help me relieve the bad memories easily and make me feel better.I didn’t believe it would work but by the second day, I started to feel lighter than before. I also got closer to the oracle of the goddess because we had lengthy conversations where I learnt a lot from her. If there is one thing I observed about the oracle it was the fact that she was proud of being the servant of the goddess and prided herse

“Mommy, Darren says I’m not going to be king,” three-year-old Dayton told me teary-eyed “I want to be king like Daddy,” I glanced at Draven for help. He smiled and picked Dayton up, pecking him on the cheeks first “Oh but you are a king my little man, even better than your daddy,” “But I’m older,” Darren argued. The twin boys were exactly like their father and it made me jealous sometimes. They had his hair color, same eye color, same facial structure and they were already starting to sound like him at this tender age. I carried them for seven months! And I pushed both of them out of my vagina! Yet they didn’t look anything like me. A normal lycan or werewolf pregnancy lasts about six months but these two took their time before deciding it was time to face the world. “Yes you are, by ten minutes,” Draven told Darren. Though the twins were identical, it was not hard for me to tell them apart. I was gifted you see. Draven sometimes struggled to know who is who. “Can there be two king

My face was covered with Draven’s kisses by the time we made it to his former chambers and my stomach hurt from too much laughing. Our things had been moved to the King’s chambers and I didn’t realize how much I’ll miss this place until we got there. The King’s chambers were many miles away, so it was easier to come here. He dropped me gently once we were inside, and I moved round, noticing how lonely it felt.“Why can’t we just stay here?” I asked.“Because it is no longer befitting for a King and his Luna,” Draven pulled my hands and hauled me against his chest “I bet you will like the King’s suite better,” he assured me.“It holds a lot of memories,” I turned back to where a huge portrait of Draven used to be to find the wall empty.“We will make more memories in the King’s quarters,” he winked at me and my heart fluttered again. “Besides, you can always come here to spend some time if you please. There’s going to be a routine maintenance every year until our first son is of age to

ESMERAYIt’s happening! Hard as it is to believe, it is actually happening! If I had the power to, I would have loved to freeze this moment and bask in the joy I feel for just a little bit longer. I wonder why the goddess didn’t give me that gift. My beast howled in my head in excitement as I said my vows and took my oath, swearing my allegiance to the entire kingdom and my loyalty to the people, and my new role.A cut was made on I and Dravens right hands, and we shook hands, making sure there was exchange of blood. A charge of electricity flowed from my head to toe as we did, and this wasn’t the usual electric current I feel whenever Draven as much as touched me, it was different, making me feel even more powerful. Draven occasionally reached me through the mind link to make sure that I was okay, and I assured him I never felt better which was true. My beast felt more powerful, and my senses more alert.Soon after, we were crowned and pronounced king and Queen, and the crowd went on

DRAVEN“Where is Duron?” I asked Vadirr who was hovering behind me.“Right here,” Duron answered, casually walking into the room where I was getting ready to join the waiting guests. I have waited for this day for a long time, worked hard for it. My father had told me several stories about what to expect during the coronation and what and what not to do. Ever since I was born, I was groomed for this day. But with just a few minutes left before I am finally crowned king, I didn’t feel the joy that I thought I would.I knew why I felt the way that I did, but I convinced myself that I could live with it. Esmeray Grayson, the woman that would be my Luna Queen didn’t love me. The sparks between us had intensified more than ever. In the last two days, we have made love even more than the way we had in the past. She still reacted to me the way she usually would. I only had to look at her to get her blushing really hard. She squirms in delight whenever I called her beautiful. I heard the soun

By the next day, I had made up my mind on what to do. I took a fresh shower, washed my hair and put on a particular lingerie he’d complimented once. I covered myself in a robe and waited for him. I was not sure if he was going to come home or not, and I was not going to call his office phone to find out. But I made up my mind that if he didn’t get home by nightfall, I’d go to his office with hopes to find him there.I was feeling unusually nervous, so I picked up a book and started to flip through it. Seconds turned to minutes, minutes to hours, and frustration started to kick in. I lost the courage I had mustered and put the book away. There was no point, maybe I should just give up this ridiculous act. I’d just started to untie my robe when I started to feel his presence. Shortly after, I heard the front door open and my heart pounded loudly in my chest.I tightened the robe around me when he entered. As usual, he didn’t spare me a glance or acknowledge my presence in the room. He w

I’d tried to talk to Ailana after that, but she decided to hide in her room again and wouldn’t let me in, so I thought it best to give her some time to come to terms with it. She wasn’t the only one hiding apparently. Duron too did not show face for dinner and when I asked about him, I was told he’d left the palace unannounced.After my first shift, I found out that my visions were much more clearer and didn’t come with their usual headaches. That night, I decided to visit the oracle as I’d intended to do so a long time now but the events of the last days had not allowed me the time to.Smythe took me to her and I found Cordelia seated at her usual spot on the floor. She looked up as soon as I entered, a wide smile plastered on her face.“Luna,” she greeted cheerfully, quickly rising to her feet. I smiled back at her and looked around her room. There had been a few changes since the last time I came here, and I told her. She nodded her agreement and pointed a chair for me to sit but I

ESMERAYOn the seventh day, we laid the departed to rest. Draven had fully recovered and immersed himself in repairing the damages and compensating the families of the bereaved. He also made sure that those who had invaded his territory were apprehended. None of them went away scot free. Even those that fled, he’d sent trackers to find them and judgment was passed on them.The members of Silver Moon pack were sold off as slaves to other packs. I didn’t interfere with Draven’s decision when he passed it or try to plead on their behalf because I knew most of them probably deserved it. There were a few innocent ones though, but I could only hope that the goddess herself brings them goodwill in their new journey in life. If they were indeed good people, their innocence would vindicate them.Draven, however, avoided me like a plague since he left the hospital bed the same day that he awoke. I watched him from a distance in deep conversation with the new kingmaker and Vadirr by his side. No

DRAVENI cupped my erection as my mate did a little striptease for me. She looked absolutely beautiful and dangerously sexy in her underwear. She was shy, but with every second that passed came a little bit of confidence. She smiled at me, and her smile grew into laughter, but she stopped suddenly and started to get into her clothes hastily. Her smile was suddenly replaced by a look of fear, of worry. I watched her get into her clothes, wishing she would not stop her little show, but I started to get alarmed too at the worry on her face.My heart broke into a thousand many pieces when she started to cry, weeping like a bride who just got jilted at the alter. She was uncontrollable. A woman in distress. I reached for her hands and tried to touch her, but the more I tried to reach her, the farther away she drifted. My heart was pounding in my chest as I watched her drift away from me. “Esmeray,” I gasped, my eyes fluttering open immediately. I tried to sit up, but my whole body felt

“Drop it,” Ailana ordered her father whose gun dropped noisily to the floor immediately she said those words. Her face had a seriousness I’d not seen in them before. This isn’t exactly the type of reunion one would wish to have with ones father.“You are not going to kill your father, are you, child?” Thane’s eyes were on his daughter’s fierce ones.“You are not my father,” Ailana argued “You were never my father, never have, and never will be. I know you never wanted a girl child. The only reason you tried to like me was because you started to realize your perfect son wasn’t so perfect after all,”“What are you talking about Aila? You know you were my favorite. Zayden was a fool, which is why I was going to put you up against him for the alpha seat. You were better than him in every aspect,” Thane reached to touch Aila’s arm but she flinched and pressed the gun tighter into his forehead.“Aila-“ I stopped when a lone tear dropped from Aila’s eye. Her lips were clasped tightly. I didn
