I twirled a strand of my golden hair around my index finger as I made my way downstairs. I greeted every servant I walked past, and they nodded back at me in a greeting manner with smiles on their faces. I am in a good mood today simply because I have a visitor, I stopped in front of the door that led to the living area and Mrs. Cordelia curtsied before me before she knocked on the door in front of us. I heard Mother speaking in a soft voice, knowing that it was I. “Enter.” Mother said and Mrs Cordelia opened the doors for me, I gently lifted my skirts so that I wouldn’t step on them. I curtsied before Mother before I made my way over to my chair. “Did you sleep well? Because you seemed unwell last night. You did not even come down for dinner.” Mother told me before she placed the book that she was holding down on the small wooden table beside her. “I slept incredibly. How stands the hour, Mother?” I asked before smiling at her. “Tis nine a clock dear.” Mother responded before she

I looked down at the beautiful yellow gown I was wearing it had beautiful gold patterns on it, the only problem was that the corset beneath it seems to be far too tight and I have no time to fix it, we are to make our appearance any second now. ‘Tis the full moon of the Alpha conference. Mother reassuringly squeezed my hand, and I sucked in a nervous breath. My nerves got the best of me earlier, and I threw up which I would never admit to anyone but that is how on edge I have been since morning. I am meeting my mate for the first time and I will see Alcander. Besides that, I am afraid that my anxieties will stop me from having a good time. I’m sure Eros will have questions, addressing the rumors that had been circling the world for the past month about the prince proposing marriage to me. And about the fact that I went to house Gartreides to meet the prince in the first place. Zion walked over to my side, and I briefly looked over at him before I placed my gaze back on the guests do

I looked up and into a pair of grey eyes. “Alpha Eros,” I said under my breath, and he took my chin in his hand. “You do not wish to speak to me?” He asked me and I felt my cheeks and ears heating up. “No,” I said softly, and his hand left my chin before he clenched his jaw. “And how certain are you of that?” He asked me before he gently took hold of my hand. He pulled me tighter against his chest and I felt nervous butterflies in my stomach. “Mia,” he called my name in a husky voice, reminding me that I still needed to answer him. “I’m certain,” I said softly, maybe I should not be lying to my mate. He gently removed my hair from my neck, and I tilted my head to the side, his breath fanned my neck, and I sucked in a shivery breath. “Lies.” He said and I felt his lips gently landing on my neck and my heart started beating faster. My eyes slowly fluttered shut as he kept placing kisses on my neck. His teeth grazed my neck, and a light shudder escaped my mouth. “Eros,” I said in

“Are you alright?” Alcander asked me in concern, and I placed my hand on his cheek which had a healed cut on it, I wiped the blood from his cheek before I looked up at him and his eyes softened on me. “I am all right, and you?” I asked him and he removed my hair from my neck. “You smell like him,” Alcander said, his eyes turning a light shade of yellow. “Does that mean I am to leave you alone?” He asked me and I shook my head at him before I wrapped my arms around his neck, and he slowly hugged my waist. I took in his scent as he held me against his chest. “No, never let me go, Alcander,” I whispered into his shirt. “You are so beautiful.” He said before he took my face into his hands. “And I am glad that I met you.” He added while staring deeply into my eyes. “So am I,” I said softly, and he gently took my chin in his hand while his eyes were focused on my lips. “May I kiss you, Mia?” He asked me and I felt butterflies in my chest. “Yes,” I said softly as his lips brushed agai

“Alpha Zion! Lady Mia! I beg your pardon for the interruption my lord and your ladyship, but we have found the moonstone!” Sir Henry, father’s gamma said in alert, and Zion, and I followed him without giving it a second thought.Once we reached our pack training field we abruptly stopped in our tracks. “I want to fight with your alpha!” A man told Sir Charles before he handed the moonstone over to him and my eyes widened in shock. “Gather everyone in your pack, I want them to see as I kill their alpha, I want them to see a rogue becoming their superior.” The man said maniacally before he started laughing.That was not the agreement, rogue.” Mother said as she came walking over to us. “You have the chance to become my son’s gamma or beta. Being a superior is not in your blood and it never will be.” Mother blankly told him, and the man frowned before he stormed at Mother, but she did not even seem fazed by it. “Sir Charles arrest this man for attempting to lay his filthy paws on his L

"We should make our way to the ballroom.” Mother said pointedly while she stared at the door.“I am ready to leave,” I said pointedly before I nervously fixed the silky material on my red dress Mother just silently looked at me and without showing any further interest in me, she dismissively waved the white satin fan in her hand.“Your brother and father are waiting for us at the entrance of the ballroom.” She said blankly before she left the room and I knew that she was ignoring me because she was unhappy with the choice I made, knowing that it would be announced at the end of the night. I silently followed her outside of the house that was prepared for us by the people of house Valaires. ‘Tis a beautiful house, and the weather here is much like the weather we have back at house Arcadius, warm and sunny. Which is probably why I do not feel out of the ordinary here.Mother and I finally reached the ballroom and Zion held his arm out to me and I let out a soft sigh before gently placi

"Mia let go of the prince at once. You have already made your decision you chose Eros. Do not make matters worse. War is the last thing we need right now." I heard my mother saying and I gently pulled back from Alcander to face her."I did not choose Eros," I said while looking into her eyes. Almost all of the guests were asked to leave after Alcander and Eros declared war against each other."You conspired behind my back after I told you that I wanted to be with Alcander. You are the reason for this chaos, if you were honest from the start Mother, we would not be here right now." I said, gasping for my breath before I started crying and Alcander took my hand in his."There will be no war. Not again." Zion said pointedly. "Just stay here, Mia. And spare the lives of the innocent people that will die in this war. Find another way to be with each other but war is not the answer." Zion said pointedly and I nodded at him. "You are right," I said softly. "I will stay here," I said as a s

The next morning I woke up on a large bed, in a large and empty room. A cold chill ran down my spine as reality hit me. I slowly sat upright before tiredly rubbing my eyes then I heard someone clear their throat. My eyes widened in shock and I immediately covered myself with my blanket before looking around the room until my eyes landed on Eros. He was standing in front of the window and he must have been staring at me for quite a while, I did not even hear him entering my room. He slowly came walking towards me and I silently watched him. He sat down on the edge of the bed and I got a whiff of his scent. His scent is so clean and serene, it's truly the only way to describe it. "Good morning, Mia." He said in a gentle tone and I couldn't bring myself to form any words. "Listen Mia I know you do not wish to be here right now but this is not a prison. This is your home now." He said and my heart started beating faster in my chest. "Eros I did not choose-" I started but he cut me off.

I sat next to Eros at our dinner table, I placed my hand in his before I rested my head against his arm. We haven't fought in two days, well ever since our last fight we've been getting along incredibly well. He's been treating me more like a friend lately so, I have decided to forgive him for his past mistakes.The royal family entered the dining hall so we all got up from where we were seated. They gracefully took their seats and the other houses followed their league by sitting back down once they were done. "Do you remember that book you gave me when I first came to House Valaires?" I asked Eros and he smiled while looking down at me."Indeed I do." He told me so I softly smiled at him."Well, last night I went to my reading room and I started writing in it. I might never get to publish it but perhaps you could read it someday." I told him and he smiled at me."Marvellous, I would be honored to, my lady." He told me and it reminded me of the time that we had just met each other.

I carefully sneaked into the alpha mansion, desperately hoping not to run into Eros. I am certain I have Alcander's scent all over me. I need to be bathed and washed clean so that Eros would not suspect a thing. "My lady, alpha Eros is waiting for you in your chambers." A maid who appeared from behind a corner told me and I held a hand to my chest in shock. "Goddess, you gave me a fright," I told the woman and she shot me a warning look before she proceeded to polish the floor in silence. What do I do now? Eros is waiting for me in my chambers. I pressed my lips together before I went into the kitchen. "I need to bathe, but not in front of the alpha," I told one of the women and she nodded at me in understanding. "And I need one of you to bring a clean dress for me from the utility room, and not my chambers," I said and another one of the women in the kitchen nodded at me before she left the kitchen. "Please follow me, Luna Mia." The other woman told me so I followed her out of t

This morning I woke up with a fever, but goddess knows where this sudden fever has come from. I sighed lightly as I stepped out of my bathtub.“I cannot seem to figure out what is wrong with me, Miss Laurel. I know everything, and I have read every book so how come I have no idea what is happening to me?” I asked Miss Laurel who was fanning my warm body.“My lady, have you ever considered the possibility that this might be your heat? You haven’t gotten it yet, my lady.” Miss Laurel respectfully said, and my eyes widened at her words.“Miss Laurel do not speak of such nonsense. My heat- my heat, it cannot be my heat. I am certain of it. Egad, if Eros was to get word of this. Absolutely not! It must be something else.” I told Miss Laurel and she frowned at me.“My lady, it is dangerous for a she-wolf to ignore her heat. You must be with your mate because only he can make it better. If not, you might die, my lady.” Miss Laurel said while she looked down at her hands and I frowned at her.

“What is the meaning of this, your grace?” I asked Alcander and he clenched his jaw. “Let him go at once.” I said referring to Sir Allen who was now tied up in a chair. The ropes around his wrists and ankles were laced with wolfsbane and it was burning into his skin like acid.“My men just reported to me that this man was seen harassing you, are these claims true my lady?” Alcander asked me and my eyes widened in shock. Someone must have seen us just now.“He’s my friend. He did not harass me we were just talking, your grace.” I said and Alcander frowned at me.“You have no business talking to my guards, Mia. And this guard will be punished accordingly for disrespecting your family name.” Alcander told me and I shook my head at him.“He’s innocent. If anyone deserves to be punished, it’s me. Please punish me, your grace.” I said and Alcander looked at me in shock.“You would risk your life for this man?” Alcander asked me and I nodded my head at him. “And what if I kill him right in f

I walked inside the dining hall while Lady Sloane held onto my arm, she was excitedly greeting people with a big smile resting on her face. I observed my surroundings as Lady Sloane led us over to our table. Every king, superior, beta, and gamma was already seated, as Lady Sloane and I took our seats next to each other. The dance floor was filled with excited teenagers dancing with their friends and mates. And the ladies of the ton were already seated at a table opposite ours; they were accompanied by their mates also known as the lords of the council. Many people showed up tonight we were surrounded by tables that were occupied by lords, ladies, and only the finest of knights and they were laughing while helping themselves to meat and a cup of wine. My eyes landed on Sir Allen and as if feeling my gaze, he looked up at me. A smile rested on his face before he raised the cup of wine in his hand at me. I could not help but smile so I grabbed a cup filled with red wine before lifting

Zion put his sword away once he saw me approaching them and a smile that met his eyes rested on his face. I walked into his embrace before I wrapped my arms around him.“Hello, brother,” I said before pulling back from him and he kept me in a side hug.“Mia, are you quite alright?” Zion curiously asked me, and I nodded at him before I went over to hug our father.“Hello Mia,” my father said, and I simply nodded at him in a greeting manner.“I am quite alright, brother. Wherever is our mother? She would never miss a trip as big as this.” I said and Zion placed his hand on his sword as a light frown settled on his forehead.“Mia, Mother suffered a fall down the stairs on the last full moon. Her wolf is unable to heal her so she is healing slower than she usually would.” Zion said and I frowned at him.“Has she gotten better?” I asked in shock and Zion looked over at our father.“She might not survive this, Mia,” Father said, and my eyes widened in shock.“And you did not think to inform

I entered the doctor’s office and he smiled when his eyes landed on me. “Luna Mia,” he said in a friendly tone, and I nodded my head at him in a greeting manner before taking a seat across from him. “You wanted to see me, doctor,” I said, and the doctor nodded at me. “Well, you seem quite unwell, Luna Mia. Would you perhaps like to tell me why you are struggling to eat so that we can find a solution to this?” He asked me, and I smiled at him. “There is no need, doctor. My throat feels much better today, I just had a wonderful breakfast.” I told the doctor and he seemed shocked at my words. I had an apple and some water which is a very healthy and tasty snack. “Well, that is wonderful news, Luna Mia.” He said and I nodded at him. “Am I allowed to leave now? I have much to do.” I said softly and the doctor nodded at me. “Of course, Luna Mia the last thing I would want to do is keep you from attending to your daily activities.” The doctor respectfully said, and I nodded at him befor

“You may stand up,” Alcander said shortly, and I stood upright before I took my seat next to Eros. I took a glance at Alcander and found that he was already looking at me. He clenched his jaw before he looked away from me and I looked at the man sitting across from me, and I smiled at him. Zion is here and so is our father. Zion is the alpha of House Arcadius now and I am so proud of him, he smiled back at me, and just as he did so Judge Everly cleared his throat.I looked over at the old man who was now standing upright, he lifted his chin before he spoke ever so proudly. “On behalf of the king and the royal family, I would like to give a special thank you to the superiors of House Valaires for arranging this dinner. We are eager to see how things are developing here at House Valaires, we hope that this next month will be filled with adventure and knowledge.” Judge Everly said, and my eyes widened. Did I hear correctly? Are the superiors staying at House Valaires for a month? Why on

Two Years Later I stared at the window as I was sitting in the doctor’s office. I stopped eating again, five days ago. And Eros thought it would be best if we came to see the doctor about it. But it is my choice to not eat. I have done this many times before so this should not come as a surprise to Eros or our doctor. Eros of course does not like it when I go on these hunger strikes but I do not care for what he likes. “Luna Mia?” The doctor called me, and I snapped out of my thoughts before looking at him. “I beg your pardon,” I said softly, and the doctor smiled at me. “Are you willing to come see me tomorrow morning for a private consultation?” The doctor asked me, and I just nodded at him before I left his office and I listened to Eros’s footsteps as he followed behind me. “Mia?” He called me and I stopped in my tracks. “We are having dinner with my parents tonight.” He said pointedly and I clenched my jaw. “And I need you to be on your best behavior.” He said pointedly before
