Alarix POV.

"Are you going back to England?" I questioned as we walked hand in hand through the forest.

We were going back to the pack. Everyone else had set off already; they were giving us some time together. I feel slightly awkward. I've been dreaming of being with her for the past few days, and all we've done since we started walking is steal glances at each other.

I know she wants to ask about Lenora, and she does deserve to know what happened. Not that anything did happen. I want to know what my king meant too. King of all species... Was I meant to become a leader? A king?

"I am." She whispered. Her voice was small and anxious. I squeezed her hand and stopped walking, turning her to face me. She was biting on her bottom lip. She looked nervous and worried.

"Look, I know what I said before back in my bedroom... I never meant it, Lila. I'm honoured that you're my beloved." I sighed.

She's unsure of my feelings for her. I know it's my fault she is, but I hate my

    #Chapter217Lila's POV"Mum, Dad, this is Alarix... My mate." I announced, smiling up at him.Dad held his hand out, and Alarix just stared at it. "Shake his hand," I whispered, giggling.He placed his hand in my dad's, "it's nice to meet you, Alpha." Alarix greeted."Please, call me Leon. I'm so glad you're finally here." Dad smiled at him.Dad smiled at me before mouthing, "I'm happy for you."I knew they'd welcome him. I've been waiting for this moment for six years. To be able to introduce my mate to my family.Mum grabbed ahold of Alarix's hand and smiled sweetly at him. "I'm Ayla. It's so lovely to meet you." She greeted."Hi." He greeted sheepishly.He looked a little overwhelmed and bewildered. I don't think he expected them to be so welcoming. I don't know how he's going to cope going back to my pack. They're going to swarm all over him. I'll have to get dad to warn the pack before we get back."We'll see you tomorrow, kids. We're going to get some sleep; it's bee

    #Chapter218Lila's POV."So, is your pack big like that one?" Alarix muttered as we settled into our seats on the jet."No..." I hesitated as his eyes lit up. "It's bigger," I whispered.His eyes widen. "How is that even possible?" He gasped.I grabbed his hand and held it in my lap. "Listen, you'll be fine... You can meet the pack as and when you want to." I sighed. "My dad has told everyone to stay away until you are ready," I explained.2He sighed and nodded. "It's going to take me a while to adjust to this." He commented."We'll get through this together," I promised, leaning my head on his shoulder.I have had a constant butterfly feeling in my stomach that hasn't disappeared since I saw him again. Last night was amazing... Nothing happened; I didn't realise how content and satisfying it would feel just laying in his arms.It was definitely so hard controlling my emotions and hormones. I wanted to complete the bond... I wanted to give him all of me. My wolf was pushing

    #Chapter219Lila's POV."Your land is stunning," he commented as he looked around the area.His whole body was tense as we drove through the pack gates. He gaped around, taking in the sights. He looked shocked and maybe in awe. He didn't relax until we left the main streets and drove through the little country lane that led to my house.1"Being back in the countryside is amazing." I smiled to myself. "I hate the city... I don't like the noise and smells." I cringed, chuckling."I can't believe I used to live so close... I'm from Burscott." He murmured. I glanced at him and gasped. "We moved not long after the seer visited us." He whispered.I sucked in a breath as my house came into view. Burscott isn't far from Clovelly at all. If he hadn't moved, I would have found him years ago.I pulled up outside of my house and switched the engine off. I turned in my seat and took a long-winded breath. "I searched for you," I sighed.He smiled at me weakly. "I think I did too. I used to

    #Chapter220Alarix's POV."So... The keyring." I laughed."Nope... Not having this conversation." She groaned. I chuckled and bumped her shoulder with mine. I spotted the keyring before she hid it. I thought it was amusing.We were strolling through the forest, following the map towards the house. The house her parents had built for her... A house for both of us to live in. I was completely astounded when they told us.I'm still blown away at how welcoming they've been. There was no hostility towards me at all. I suppose they've had years to come to terms with a vampire joining their family."I still can't get over how beautiful everything is around here," I stated again as I looked around.I peeped at Lila from the corner of my eyes. She looked nervous and like she wanted to say something. I stopped walking and stood in front of her. She sucked in her bottom lip, looking like she was about to cry. I frowned and swiped my thumb against her bottom."What's wrong?" I asked.Sh

    #Chapter221Lila's POV"So... Do you like this house?" I asked apprehensively, scratching the back of my neck, standing in the middle of the kitchen.I absolutely adore the house. It's been built and decorated to my taste, but I don't know if it's to Alarix's liking. He didn't give anything away as we looked around. He kept an indifferent expression on his face throughout the whole tour."It's, um, huge." He drawled, gawking around the kitchen. His eyes were wide, and his mouth was slightly parted.I followed his eyes, taking in all the details. The kitchen was modern and classy. It was all black and white with a white marble finish on the countertops. Patio doors were leading to a beautiful massive back garden."But do you like it? Do you want to live here?" I breathed. I want him to feel relaxed with me. I want him to feel like this is his home as much as mine.He spun around, lifting his brow at me. "I've already said... Wherever you are, that's where I want to be." He smirke

    #Chapter222Lila's POV."I'm glad you're here too," I replied. I planted a firm kiss over his heart before gazing up at him. "More than you know." I breathed. "So... Are you hungry?" I questioned.He smiled down at me shaking his head. "Are you sure? You could hunt? I could make you something? You could feed on me?" I fired questions at him. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath. I was acting like his mum... A good mum, at least.I want to make sure he's comfortable and happy here. I don't want him to feel embarrassed or to hide when he needs to feed. Once in a while, Lola hunts. It's not necessary as human food works just as well for us, but Lola likes giving in to her animalistic side now and again.He shook his head and smiled down at me. "Lila, baby, I promise I'm ok." He chuckled.I nodded and sighed. "Sorry, I badgered you with the questions," I muttered awkwardly."It's getting late... You should probably get some rest if you're going to be in trouble tomorrow." He sm

    #Chapter223Lila's POV."Here... These should fit. You're coming with Elias and me tomorrow," He beamed as he gave Alarix a bag."Um, thank you," Alarix countered, looking perplexed.I gaped at Levi and grabbed his shirt, pulling him back. "What's happening tomorrow?" I quizzed."Well, we're going to sort Alarix out with everything he needs." Levi grinned. "Here, mum sent this for you. Bring Alarix to the packhouse in the morning." He mentioned as he handed me a bag.I nodded my head slowly as I watched him saunter out of the house. "You don't have to go with them." I blurted, spinning around to face Alarix.He chuckled and shook his head. "I'll go... I can get to know them." He smiled.I took a deep breath then nodded. "Well, you can get dressed in the bedroom. I'm going to get a quick shower." I yawned, moving towards the stairs."Hey," He grasped my arm gently and let out a breath. "Are you happy that I'm here?" He whispered.I reached up and planted a firm quick kiss on

    #Chapter224Lila's POV"What? What would happen?" I exasperated."He's hot, isn't he? Sweating, shivering, making awful sounds?" He asked."What's going on?" I growled."Bloodlust, Lila. He needs to feed." He sighed. "Animal blood alone isn't going to satisfy the hunger in him." He whispered.I gasped and dragged in a shaky breath. "Got it." I drawled, letting out my breath slowly."Wait!" He blurted. "There is another option..." He hesitated, taking a deep breath. "We could make him go cold turkey, so to speak. The risks are high, and he may not survive it, but his bloodlust will only get worse, and he'll be murderous." He continued.I snarled, a rasping, deep sound echoing throughout the bathroom. "Why the fuck would you even suggest that?" I hissed."Lila, vampires feed on human blood for years. They build up a tolerance for it; they don't get addicted. He's not used to human blood." He sighed. "He's drunk so much human blood and vampire blood. There's no saying what it's g

    #Chapter303WHEREVER YOU GO, I GO“So, we’re going to live in the palace forever?” Callie asked.Brody glanced at me with his brow raised. We haven’t discussed what’s going to happen. I still want to be part of the royal guard, but now I have someone else to think about.What does Brody want to do with his life? Would he be happy staying in the palace? There are all these little things we’re going to have to deal with.Until the threat to my life, well all our lives are dealt with, the best place for us is the palace. But after that, I need to think about Brody and Callie, not just myself.“I don’t know about the future, but yes, for now, we’re staying at the palace.” I answered. “Is that okay with you both?”“I like the palace. I like my bedroom. I like your family. I want to stay.” Callie answered.I smiled at her and nodded. “I’m glad you like it here.”I glanced to Brody, he seemed deep in thought. He smiled sweetly at me and took hold of my hand and Callie’s.“Wherev

    #Chapter302LITTLE DETAILSI have no idea how I’m feeling right now, there are so many thoughts running through my mind.I’m confused why I’ve got a mate and a beloved. I know we have a family history of having two... Nanna Ayla had two mates, but they think that was because of the prophecy, and Grandad Leon was always supposed to be her true mate, but never in my wildest dreams would I have expected me to have a mate and a beloved.I’m happy, elated, absolutely over the moon at the fact Brody is my beloved. He’s everything I wanted in a beloved. He’s thoughtful, caring, and a decent being. I’m certainly lucky to have been blessed to spend my life with him.But I’m also worried. No, I’m absolutely petrified. When Luca finds out I’m also destined for someone else, I don’t even want to think about what he’d do. He’s going to be angry and jealous, and that’s a dangerous combination. Jealousy can make even the nicest people do wrong things. Luca is deranged and definitely wo

    #Chapter301HIS SCENT“So, you and Brody?” Olivia smirked as she placed some pieces of fruit in five bowls.“I know that face, Liv. There is nothing going on.” I groaned, “we’re just friends.”“Friends definitely don’t look at each other the way you two do.” She snickered.Olivia placed the knife onto the kitchen island and looked at me with a serious expression. She leaned against the kitchen island, resting her chin on the palm of her hand.“In all seriousness, how are you doing now you’re back?” She asked.I took a deep breath, then smiled at Olivia.“I’m glad to be back.” I sighed, “really glad to be back”.”“We’re glad to have you back,” she smiled sweetly. “Are you going with Brody when he gets his scent back?”I nodded and pushed away from the kitchen island. “He’s nervous about it, so I want to be there for him.”"You just want to know what he smells like." Allie quipped.She’s not wrong. I am intrigued to know what his scent is like. When I

    #Chapter300WISHFUL THINKINGI halted in the doorway and frowned. My eyes darted around my dad’s office. My dad was sitting behind his desk with his arms crossed over his chest, with Mum perched on a chair beside him holding his arm. Coby and Ryder were standing by Uncle Elias and Uncle Levi in deep conversation. Grandad Leon and Nanna Ayla were behind Mum and each had their hands on her shoulder."No matter what they have to tell us, I’m here, we go through this together." Allie promised. ”We’re stronger than the rogues."They all looked to me with hints of anger and worry all over their faces.“So, what’s wrong?” I questioned as I moved further into the office, and Brody closed the door behind us.“You might want to sit down, sweetheart.” Dad instructed, pointing to the sofas on the other side of the room.I led Brody towards the sofas and made sure he was sat next to me. I’m going to need him close if I’m going to get through this. Mum and Dad joined us, sitting

    #Chapter299THE PLACE IS A MAZE“Lila, sweetheart, wake up.”My eyes shot open, and I stared blankly ahead at Brody’s chest; we must have fallen asleep. It took me a few seconds to register, it was my mum’s voice. I peered over my shoulder. My mum was standing beside my bed, awkwardly shuffling side to side on her feet.I sat slowly to try and not wake Brody, and turned completely to Mum.“Everything okay?” I asked.“I’m sorry, Lo.” She sighed, “I didn’t want to enter your room without your permission, but it’s important, baby.”“Sure. What’s wrong?” I asked.She shook her head and took a deep breath.“Dad is waiting for us in his office.”I raised my brow, then nodded.“Okay, give me a minute,” I sighed.I leaned forward and grabbed the comforter from the bottom of the bed and pulled it over Brody.“Brody should probably hear this as well.” She mumbled.“Meet you at Dad’s office then?” I suggested.Mum nodded her head and took a deep breath

    #Chapter298A LITTLE NEEDYCallie was over the moon with her bedroom, the smile never left her face. When I showed Brody his room, she didn’t want to come, she wanted to stay in her bedroom and play with her new toys. I didn’t blame her though, she had plenty to choose from, my parents definitely spoiled her.I left Brody to settle in his room, get a shower or whatever he wanted to do. I showed him which room mine was, and that if he or Callie needed me, they could come to my room.I stood in the middle of my room and dragged in a shaky breath. The last time I was in here, I was with Olivia when we were getting ready for my birthday party. I was starting to feel overwhelmed and anxious. Being alone in the room gave me a weird feeling. I need to not think about before and anything that happened. If I think too much, I may just be heading for a mental breakdown."Can we talk?" Brody’s voice filled my mind, and the little anxiety I was beginning to feel about being alone sl

    #Chapter297STUPID SOUNDPROOF ROOMSI introduced Callie to the boys after getting the sweetest hello from them. They definitely missed me as much as I missed them. All four of them clung to me for ages. But the meeting between Callie and the boys was cute and warmed my heart. They were certainly excited to meet her. They got on really well, and I knew they would do.We spent time playing in the playroom while Brody was with my dad. I was glad I was with them, because it took my mind off my dad and Brody; it kept me occupied enough that my mind wasn’t constantly thinking about what is being said. I know Brody won’t tell them anything about what happened to me, but part of me wishes he did, because then I wouldn’t have to. Although Brody doesn’t know everything, I mean, he gets the gist of it, but he wasn’t always there."I’ll be there when you tell them. I’ve got your back." Allie cooed."I’m so lucky to have you."When Brody came to the playroom, I heard him and Corbo

Alora is special, nothing like what they said hybrids were. I had to get her out of there.” I answered.A broad smile appeared on King Alarix’s face as he nodded and sat back with his arms folded.“The guy that pulled her away, who is he?” Corbon asked.I furrowed my brows. “I wasn’t there, so I don’t know what happened, but I assume you’re talking about Luca.” I replied.“And who is this Luca?" Corbon growled.“He’s a wolf, but I don’t know much about him. I can’t tell you anything else though, it’s not my place to say.” I sighed.“The hell you can’t.” Corbon growled. “Tell me about him.”“That’s enough, Corbon.” King Alarix

    #Chapter295WHAT EXACTLY ARE YOUBrody’s POV.I followed King Alarix through the palace. It was huge, I don’t think I have ever seen something so grand. When I think of palaces, I imagine old fashion colour schemes, but this isn’t anything like it. The palace is modern and open planned, lots of space.“Just around this corner.” King Alarix mentioned over his shoulder.I nodded and smiled at him. My mind kept going back to the reunion between Alora and her family. Everything we went through getting out of that place, seeing them all together, was so worth it. I don’t think I have ever seen a mum and dad fawn so much over their children. It was heartwarming to witness.My dad died when I was young, so I don’t remember anything about him. Callie’s dad tried, but my mother wasn’t very maternal, so she complained whenever he showed Callie an ounce of love and affection.Our children need to grow up to be leaders, do not make them weak.Showing love and affection does
