Cage was too stunned to speak. They waited for her and she had to make a grand entrance while he was about to give his speech. She didn't even look apologetic. It felt like she planned it cause her entrance surely got people talking and wondering who she was. He glanced at her for a bit and she gave him a sly smirk. Oh, she knew alright. He turned back to the crowd. "Tonight marks the night we give thanks to the Moon Goddess, who has blessed us with wisdom and earthly things. We will sacrifice the bear that was caught yesterday and then we will feast!" "This year has been good to us. We are too important to be taken for granted. Due to our knowledge, we excel where ever we go. We are respected and feared. As the Moon Goddess's favorite, we should also honor her," Cage continued. "A long held tradition that will not stop even when we are gone. Our children will take over. And their children. And for many generations to come." Everyone clapped at his speech but there were still no
As Cassandra opened her mouth to speak, Ted interrupted her. "Would you like to dance with me?" He asked. She glanced at his face in shock. He brought out his hand and she took it. "I'll see you later, Lara," she said as he pulled her to the dance floor. Lara waved her friend off. Cassandra looked so happy Ted asked her for a dance. Lara wasn't expecting him to become bold with his intentions. Cassandra had told her, she had to pursue him every day even though they were mates. Ted never wanted a mate. He didn't want her and he was vocal about it. Guess her persistence had paid off because he looked ready to do anything for her just by the way he stared into her eyes. He was a man in love. Lara smiled. She was happy for Cassandra. "Tsk, tsk, tsk," Fayn mocked as she sat beside Lara. Lara tensed up. "You look really beautiful, whore. You don't mind if I damage your gown later on, do you?" She asked, smiling. Lara glanced at her without responding. Fayn would definitely get angry
"We are cool now, right?" He asked her. She nodded. He smiled as the dance ended. Everyone left the floor immediately. Lars walked to the side, not knowing what was about to happen. "Alyson, daughter of nobleman Agar come forward." Alyson went to him immediately. "The young lady here is courageous and one of the best archers I have seen. " He praised her. She smiled happily. "Now is the time for her to receive her reward," he said immediately. Alyson's face was a little bit complicated. She glanced at Kyla one last time. "Now tell your King, Alyson. What do you want us to give to you?" He asked her. She knelt on the ground. "I have thought about it yet there was nothing I wanted more than to get married one day," Lara was tensed. If Cage and Brad agreed then they might be able to have the ceremony right here and will have to destroy their bond with Lara What would happen to her? She would be sad or heartbroken but none of them would be able to go back to their life like befor
The ceremony had come to an end. Lara enjoyed every single part of it. Too bad Desi could not make it. Children were not allowed due to how sexual it could turn when some wolves get drunk. She stood up to leave and bumped into Fayn again. Fayn glared at her. "I'm sorry," she quickly apologized. "I don't need your sorry, wolf." Fayn glanced around and noticed that there was no one beside Lara for the first time. Cassandra had gone back with Ted while Kyla was sitting a little bit further away from her. The Kings were speaking to some nobles so she was left alone. Fayn smirked. "Do you think you deserve to live in the palace with the Kings?" She asked her."You're just a worthless and pack less wolf. No one would be watching you if you leave and never come back." "I can't do that," Lara replied before turning to leave."Why? Oh, are you leaving already? You're scared you won't be able to take me?" Fayn said loudly and laughed. Her voice echoed causing Cage and Brad to look in her
"Lara," a deep voice called out. She was still sleeping. "Lara, wake up," Brad called out softly again but she didn't move an inch. He glanced at Cage. Cage smiled and pulled the sheets away from her naked body. It seems to have been a wrong move because his eyes immediately glowed. He pulled his eyes away from her beautiful form. Brad wasn't any better. He tried to readjust his pants. "That was a wrong move," Brad told him. "I didn't know she was naked. We all slept with our clothes on last night," Cage grumbled. "Well maybe a magic happened," he said laughing. He covered her with the sheets. Brad held her shoulders and shook her. Her eyes opened. She frowned at the closeness of their face. Brad let go of her and she fell on the bed. Lara drew the sheets closer to her body and sat up. She glanced at the both of them and looked out the window. "Isn't it too early?" "No, it's not. Get your pretty ass out of bed and dress up." "My clothes are in my room," she murmured. "I br
They rode for almost an hour before they arrived at the village. Lara looked out the window to see the smoke burning in the distance. "What caused the fire?" She turned to Cage. "The report said it was a fire caused by a teenager that had shifted for the first time. They are holding him captive," he said with his eyes closed. "Why? It was a mistake!" "Doesn't matter, we will know when we get there." After a while, the carriage stopped and they got down from the carriage. There were already a few men and women standing in front of the carriage waiting for them. "Thank you for coming to our aid, Your Majesty," a man said. They were all looking dirty and tired. Cage nodded. "What is the situation right now?" "The fire burnt almost all the houses in the west. We need some food supplies as our storage also caught fire," the first man said. "Alright, let's go. I want to see for myself," Cage told them. They led the way. Cage took hold of Lara's hands. It seems they didn't think sh
Cage pulled the boy outside. The boy shrunk away from the sun and closed his eyes. After a while, he opened his eyes to see the people around him. The elders all stared at him, anger blazing from their eyes. Lara noticed it. These elders might have been the ones responsible for the boy's madness. "Where is his mother?" Cage asked them. "We sent her to the clinic at the capitol. Her injuries were severe," the old lady answered while glaring at the young boy. "Alright, I'll get to the bottom of this. This fire was not as a result of this young boy's mistake. He is being used as the culprit while the person responsible is walking freely." Their expressions changed. They didn't look pleased by the words of Cage."I understand why you might think so, Your Majesty but he started the fire. There is no denying that," the first elder said again. "Yes, and he will be punished accordingly. But this is a case of arson. Someone caused the fire to spread and that is the one responsible for th
"I'll have to tell Brad. He'll be so shocked. Our little princess is about to become a wife and mother," Cage said and everyone laughed. Gabby glanced at Lara again. She was surprised to see a wolf with His Majesty seeing as a wolf was the one responsible for his parents' murder. "Who is she?" She asked Cage. Cage glanced at Lara. "I had introduced her as a friend to your father but I'll say the truth. She is my mate. Our mate, Brad, and Mine," he said and held her hands. Nobleman Chad didn't look pleased. He shook his head. "You're about to make the same mistakes that your parents did. Do not trust a wolf!" He said coldly. He glanced at Lara one last time and left the room. "Uhmm it's nice to meet you, I'm Pen," she smiled"Hi Pen, you have such a lovely voice," Lara smiled at her. She blushed at the compliment. The other two sisters didn't look pleased to see her. Especially the first daughter, Gabby. She glared at her and when she couldn't stand the sight of her any longer,
