Alice - POV

"Hey, Alice! What's going on?" Isha's voice jolted me out of my thoughts, and I looked up at her, dazed. The news of my pregnancy had left me reeling, my hand instinctively resting on my belly.

Isha's gaze was filled with concern as she searched my face. "I'm pregnant," I whispered, and Isha gasped in surprise.

"I'm not sure how to react to this news, Alice," she said, a sad gleam in her eyes. "You need to speak with Queen Ella about this. If news of your pregnancy gets out in the dragon realm, Jeffrey could use it to appeal for a reduced imprisonment time and custody of your child." The thought of Jeffrey near my child filled me with fear.

"Take me to the palace," I said quietly, and Isha teleported us there without a word. Stepping into the Palace hallway, I felt my breath catch as I sat on the couch. Isha rushed off somewhere, and I closed my eyes, my mind wandering to my past with Jeffrey.

I thought back to the day when Jeffrey had proposed to me in fr

    Alice - POV "I'm sorry, what?" I asked, staring at James in disbelief. "Do you want me to repeat myself?" James asked. "It's hard to believe you're agreeing to marry me. Am I not damaged goods?" I blurted out my thoughts. "You speak constantly, lowering yourself as if you are trash. I don't see you that way; I see you as a fighter," James said, leaving me guessing. His eyes were fixed on me. "I see you in a different light, a strong woman." My eyes widened in surprise at his words. James's small smile made my heart race. "James, you didn't want a mate, and now you're okay with getting married. Is it because of my situation?" I smiled awkwardly at him. Keeping hope for something romantic is a foolish and bad idea. James's eyes still stared at me. "Right?" I asked with my insecurity. "Don't answer that. I'm happy you're helping me," I added. "Boom, boom." A fire broke out, and fireworks lit up the sky. "I love fireworks," I muttered in awe at the colors spreading across the beau

    Alice - POV "King Darcus, I'll tell you about Jailbreak later, but I'm here for my mate," Jeffrey said, his eyes locked on me, filling me with fear. James stepped forward, blocking my view, his shoulders squared. "You have no mate. The woman you're staring at is my wife and mate," James said, his tone measured but warning of anger. I couldn't see Jeffrey's frame because of James's tall stature, but I could sense his anger towards James. "It can't be possible. How can Alice get a second mate so quickly?" Jeffrey mocked James. "This is Queen Ella's ploy to separate me from my mate, who is pregnant with my child." He roared, and the murmurs in the Ballroom grew louder. "So, you're saying that the mate bond ritual that all dragon aristocrats witness at the altar is a lie?" Ella walked forward, her gaze threatening. "You're delusional and can't accept that your ex-mate has moved on with another man," Ella said loudly. The crowd went silent, and I stood beside James instead of hiding b

    Alice - POV"What did you just say?" Levy asked again as I felt Jame's hand on my shoulder and distanced myself from him. I smiled at Levy, who looked angry with both Jame and me."You heard wrong, Levy. Do you think I would get married without telling you?" I kept my tone firm."Are you trying to cover up, sis?" Levy asked suspiciously, testing me."Levy, I already told you I'm not married at all," I added firmly, refusing to reveal the truth and shock her. Levy looked at James and me, waiting for someone to break and tell her the truth, but we remained calm."Mr. James, why were you holding my cousin's sister so tightly?" Levy asked, narrowing her eyes and crossing her arms as if interrogating James."Your cousin sister was about to fall from dizziness. I think she's not feeling well," James explained, and Levy's interrogating expression shifted to concern as she looked at me."You're not feeling well. Let's go home," Levy said, taking my backpack and holding my hand, leading me awa

    James - POV"What?!" I shot up from the chair as her words sank into my mind. I stood up and stared at Beth's face."I knew you wouldn't believe me, James. That's why I brought proof." Beth took out the contract and slammed it onto the table. I quickly picked it up, feeling the magic so familiar that it resembled mine. The other magic was fiery and minty, just like I had sensed in the dragon ballroom where Jeffrey escaped with the warlocks."You belong to the Green Fire Realm?" I asked cautiously. Beth stared at me, surprised."James, I told you my father was the Green Fire Clan and a leader," Beth explained as I scanned the paper. All the clauses were written in magic. I saw my father's name, Jude Davis's, and his signature on the end of the file, and Beth's father's, Marshal Anderson's. "Of course, you ignored what I said that night since you were too busy eyeing me with lust." I sighed at her remark, which only worsened my mood."We need to find a way to get this contract annulled,

    Alice - Point of ViewJames and I were with a real estate agent who showed us a new, luxurious flat. James wanted me to move in with him because he was afraid of Jeffrey showing up at Levy's apartment at any time. Although I felt uncomfortable with the idea, James had a valid point. I knew Jeffrey could go to any lengths to get me back, and the thought of being back in the shackles of his abuse made me uneasy."Are you alright, Alice?" James's concerned voice broke me out of my stupor."I am," I muttered with a smile. The real estate agent walked us through the luxurious facilities, and the technology was so advanced that it was like the magic we used for our daily chores."You like this house," James whispered."Yes, I do," I said. I offered to pay for half the place James would rent or buy, but James declined, saying he wouldn't take any money from me. I looked at James, who was speaking with the real estate agent, and he handed the check to him after signing a few documents.I was

    Alice - POVOpening my eyes, my surroundings looked unfamiliar. "You're awake," a voice said. I jerked my head in its direction."James," I rasped, my voice hoarse. He offered me water, which I gratefully accepted. As he took the glass from my hand, his fingers brushed against mine, sending a shiver down my spine. James met my gaze with warmth in his eyes. I resisted the urge to drown in this strange emotion, a mate bond. It scared me, reminding me too much of my ex-mate, a truly terrible individual.Suddenly, I remembered Levy lying pale and gravely wounded on the floor. "Where's Levy? Why am I here?" I asked, my voice rising in panic. I swiftly rolled out of bed and stood, my legs feeling weak."Levy has been taken to the wolf realm to heal. The knife had been coated in poison, and only the wolf realm had the herbs to cure her," James explained. "I sent Varina with Levy for extra protection.""But Levy's human! Why expose her to this mystical, ugly world?" I snapped at James, who on

Freshening up, I stepped out of my room, hearing James' soft breathing emanating from the other side of our shared space. He appeared to be still asleep.I made my way to the kitchen and inspected the well-stocked fridge. I pulled out eggs, fresh fruit, and bacon, deciding to make breakfast since I felt pretty hungry. Spotting a coffee pot, I gave in to my coffee craving. After grinding some fresh beans, I prepared the brew and poured it into a mug, savoring the aroma before taking a sip. Coffee makes me more nauseous, but I can't help and give in to my caffeine craving."You're not supposed to drink coffee," a deep voice reprimanded. I turned sharply to find James, his sleepy eyes watching me with an amused smile, his shirtless torso making it difficult not to stare at his toned physique."Like what you

    James - POV"Tell me, Axon, what scheme have you prepared for me?" I asked calmly. My suspicions of Axon's potential betrayal rose when I saw Jerry speaking with him. Jerry had been trying to get close to Alice in the human world, often meeting her at a local café. Alice had told me about Jerry when I asked her about him."Why do you believe I'm scheming?" Axon countered, his face impassive. Before I could respond, a sharp voice cut through the air. "James, you bastard," Beth spat, storming into the dining room, her eyes flaming with fury."What's going on, Beth?" Axon asked calmly, although I detected a hint of annoyance in his voice."James, how could you do this to me?" Beth yelled."What do you mean?" I asked, confused."You're a married man to your dragon secretary!" Beth accused, her teeth gritted and fists clenched. Her words startled me, but I maintained my composure, not satisfying her to see me ruffled. From the corner of my eye, I caught Axon smirking. It was clear he knew

"Gunther, you look so handsome," I said, lifting him into my arms and kissing his cheeks."Ready for Leo's wedding?" Archer asked, pausing to take in my appearance from head to toe. "Wow, Lavina, you look radiant," he whispered. At that moment, Archer's mom coughed, reminding us of her presence."Mom, you look beautiful too," Archer quickly added.

Leo looked at me with a mixture of anger and hope, then released the doctor.I approached Leena, noticing her injuries and the paleness of her skin.

We hurried back to the Wolf realm and pretended that we were still preparing for the wedding. We even hid our mate marks to make it seem like we weren't married yet, and I didn't tell anyone that I was already the queen of wolves."I never imagined Natalie would come up with such plans," Archer's mom said, joining me after she had looked over the wedding venue. "To everyone, she seemed like a sweet girl, always acting as if she wouldn't hurt a fly. But she was good at pretending."Feeling a bit awkward, I asked, "I'm sorry to bring this up, but why did Brandon become so evil?" The question made Archer's mom look sad."Brandon always wanted to be the best; he couldn't stand coming in second. He was very competitive. Archer, on the other hand, wanted freedom. He never had any interest in being the Alpha. He dreamed of traveling the world, exploring new places, and had no de

Sharing a content smile, we left the room together. I felt a wave of relief—it's quite a task to get a little one to bed.Back in our room, Archer suggested, "Lavi, put your feet on my lap.""Why?" I asked, laying down while Archer took my feet into his lap, starting to massage my sore legs gently. I couldn't help but moan, feeling the tension release."I love hearing you moan," Archer teased with a chuckle, adding a flirtatious hint. "Especially when I'm close to you."Something seemed off, so I asked, "Archer, what's on your mind?" I withdrew my feet from his lap, meeting his eyes directly."Leo and I have beefed up security," he shared, concern evident in his voice."Are you worried about an attack?" I probed. He nodded. Sitting up, I pondered how to alleviate his fears."Let's use our new abilities to scout for

During this time, I successfully dismantled a gang that was deceiving she-wolves under the guise of a dating site. These criminals would lure the she-wolves, drug their food, and then use them as blood banks for vampires or as playthings. Together with Archer, we tracked down this nefarious group and eliminated everyone involved, ensuring they could no longer harm anyone.I was eagerly awaiting Leena's arrival at my house; she had expressed her desire to move in with me, following the traditional practice of she-wolves living with their mates once they found each other. I had taken great care to prepare her room according to her preferences, as I wanted her to feel comfortable and at home, not just a guest sharing my space. Before her arrival, movers and packers had already delivered and arranged Leena's belongings in her new room.When there was a knock at the door, I quickly opened it, greeted

He had just come from the kitchen, ready to serve me this delicious meal."You can cook?" I asked, surprised."I've been taking cooking classes with my mom. I wanted to make delicious food for you and take care of you," Archer replied, smiling. I gazed at him with affection, feeling fortunate. Archer had always been there for me, addressing my whims, insecurities, and pain from my past relationship with Keenan, which still troubled me.After we finished eating, Archer placed his hand on my belly, and the baby kicked in response to his voice.

I looked up to see Leena wearing a beautiful, elegant dress, looking stunning."Are you nervous?"
