EDEN: The Daughter of the Moon FORTY-FIVE
Lucius povI acted like she had won this time. Technically, at least partly, she did. But what Eden didn’t know was that I already mind-linked Titus and gave him heads-up about the situation. As soon as I would let him know we both went back to the bedroom and Eden was busy, my best friend would get the workers out of the kitchen and ask them a few questions. In the meantime, we assured guards stood nearby if any of these people decided to try to run. While Eden was busy making sandwiches, I leaned against the doorframe and watched her. Everyone in the kitchen returned to their responsibilities, surely more tense than earlier. Every person kept glancing in my direction to check if I hadn't left. As if I would leave my mate here alone for the bait of these piranhas. This situation irritates me as much as it intrigues me. Listening to the things people talk behind my back did open my eyes a little. Although I knew that not everyone who smiled to my face had good intentions, I never

Eden povAs I watched how Lucius stormed after Titus, I couldn’t understand why both of them thought that acting like children at their age was okay. Then, I remembered the doctor’s words and cursed under my breath. That man-child was supposed to stay on bed rest, not chase his best friend around. Slowly, I set everything I was holding down and walked towards the door. Only I couldn’t leave since a woman with an ugly scowl on her face blocked my way out. At this point, I didn’t have to be a genius to know this had to be Mathilda. “Where do you think you are going, human?” She snarled at me. No one in the kitchen moved. All eyes were trained on me. This had to be the so-called ‘make it or break it’ moment for me. It was either I backed off and proved her she was right, or stood my ground and spat in that ugly soul. “There,” I said as I pointed my finger at the door. “Yeah? And why do you think you have the right to follow the King? He’s not here to protect you, in fact, nobody wo

Lucius povAs I stormed into the kitchen, I was sure I had to be running so fast, I found a new dimension. There was no way Mathilda was addressing my mate by her name and calling her a genius. Just minutes ago, the woman spat so many hateful things about Eden, it wasn’t possible that she had changed thoughts so soon. No fucking way. “My love,” I breathed out in relief and instantly walked around the kitchen counter to get to Eden. Everyone in my way parted to let me pass, even Mathilda jumped away from her. As soon as I stood in front of Eden, I cupped her cheek to check if there was anything wrong with her. If I found even the most microscopic scratch on her, someone was about to fucking pay. Before I could question Eden, she frowned and poked my chest. “You, mister, aren’t you supposed to be on bed rest? Running around and chasing Titus doesn’t sound like that to me.” Honestly, I was taken aback by the icy tone she was using. Was she seriously angry at me now? “Oooh, busted,”

Eden povMy breath hitched as an intense ping or pain hit my chest. I wasn’t sure where the pain came from, but once Lucius grabbed my hand and held it, the pain faded. His eyes were trained on something in the distance, and I swear, I could see tears forming in them. So that was where the pain came from - I felt a little bit of what Lucius was feeling. “It’s fine,” I whispered. “You don’t have to talk about it if you don’t want to. We can just sit in silence, take this moment for yourself and then, we will go back to the castle to get you some rest.” “No,” Lucius choked and shook his head. “Before our relationship evolves into something I can’t afford to lose. Fuck it, it’s already there, I just can’t lose you, Eden. The possibility of seeing you walk away from me scares me like nothing ever has.” I had never felt nearly as confused as I was now. Why did he need to talk about the relationship, if he brought me here to show me the place and already mentioned his mother?“I don’t u

Lucius povWhy did I feel so flooded with relief because of those words? Not everything, though. The mention of that man fueled my rage and I wanted nothing but to find him and erase his existence. I should be grateful for his stupid decision to reject Eden, and I truly did, but I also was incredibly angry that he couldn’t see the worth in her. To me, Eden was perfection. She was everything and more. Way more than I could have dreamed of, and thanks to one fuckface, she was all mine. Although I still worried about her words, I pretended they didn’t affect me. I would get to the bottom of it later, now, I had to focus on her well-being. Breaking news like that to someone had to be a thing only someone brave could do, but there also was the emotional factor. She looked like the words didn’t hurt her, but I could hear it in her voice how much they actually did. Eden had been silently suffering all this time, carrying the burden alone, and I was too busy and caught up with everything

Eden povFor the rest of the evening, at least until dinner time came around, Lucius was calm and really seemed to enjoy himself. He insisted we head downstairs for dinner, despite how many times I told him I would bring him food. When we sat at the table, I noticed the insane lack of happy faces around it. Titus joined us shortly, but I still felt like something was missing. “Where are the rest of the people?” I asked Lucius, interrupting the conversation he had started with Titus. “They are in the kitchen, having dinner the same as we are, love,” Lucius replied. A frown, probably an ugly one, instantly appeared on my face. “Why?” Both Lucius and Titus thought for a moment and then just shrugged. “No idea, that has been the system ever since the last King, I suppose. We have been so used to it that I never questioned it,” Titus explained. No, that didn’t sit well with me. It was one thing to stand above everyone, but all those people spent their days working to improve the life

Eden povOf course, I knew which pack Lucius was talking about, but I was too scared to bring up more details. I had never told him where exactly I came from, so I assumed it had to be Titus since we met in my old pack. But on top of that, I had the nagging feeling that Richard might have told more than I was willing to share. Was it too much to ask to have some details of my past left unsaid? That was pretty much where we left the conversation. Neither of us uttered a word as we left the bathroom and got in the bed. Lucius pulled me in his arms and muttered something I couldn’t understand. As annoyed as I was, it took me no time to fall asleep. My issue was that I felt as if I hadn’t slept at all when he woke me up with gentle kisses he traced over my skin. I tried to escape his hold and pull the blanket over my head, five more minutes was all I needed, but Lucius was dead set on waking me - one way or another. And in this case, he chose the latter one. A yelp of surprise left

Eden povWhen Lucius returned with our breakfast, I had managed to pack my suitcase. Honestly, I went through the bags as if my ass was on fire because I didn’t want to discuss the contents of that one bag. Just the thought of it made my cheeks burn bright red. But alas, I tossed the things in simply because Lucius asked me to and I didn’t want to disappoint him. We didn’t talk about anything while we ate and when he needed to pack his bag, the only words that left us were some bits about the stuff he needed, and questions about basic items from me. The morning went by in a blur. I think the severity of his decision sunk in only when Lucius opened the car door and helped me in. Titus decided to take his own car to give us more privacy. As soon as we left the driveway and Lucius turned the car on the highway, my heart sank. This was it, I was returning to my tormentors. Deep down, I felt like nothing could save me from them. No matter how far I ran, how many people I took with me

Eden povI was beyond nervous as I tried to stop my hands from shaking while cutting up the vegetables. I hadn’t had enough time to figure out how to come clean with my family, but this really felt like the right time to do that. Lucius and Titus were probably already playing their guessing game about whatever they had done wrong and I wouldn’t disturb them doing that. Honestly, both of them have been acting like two hormonal teenagers these days, so they deserved a little adult worthy stress. As some of the kitchen ladies joined me and started up the usual conversations, I felt more at ease. However, every time when I glanced at the clock and saw the dinner time nearing, a new wave of unease surged through me. “Are you planning to prepare some desserts for little Magnus, my Queen?” Mayra asked, flashing me her usual bright smile. I hummed, thinking if sugar was a good idea right before bedtime. But then again, this dinner had to resemble sort of a joyful moment, so maybe it wou

§Three months after the wedding.§Titus povEden was officially ours and no one could do shit about it. Our journey had been nothing less than a deadly fucking rollercoaster ride, but the outcome was so worth it. Looking back at how things went, personally I went from thinking I wouldn’t find a mate, to finding one and being rejected, and finally, to finding out that my best friend and the woman I had grown extremely protective of were my own ‘it’. But best of all, I didn’t get only them. With them both came a family I didn’t dare to dream of and an awesome son. I didn’t tell Lucius and Eden, but if I had to choose, I would always choose Magnus. The little dude was awesome. At least sometimes he was.And now, while Eden and Lucius were busy running around the castle and fucking on top of every surface they could find, my little man Magnus and I were nearly done with building the most badass lego set ever. Well, we would be done with it ages ago if the little shit wouldn’t accuse m

Eden povThe next moment, Titus shoved me on the bed. Both my amazing mates, now husbands, didn’t return the favor they did when they were undressing me. Instead, they took off their clothes torturously slowly. Piece by piece, they dropped everything next to their feet and grinned at me like lunatics.Rolling my eyes, I groaned and turned to my side to mumble, “since you two are taking ages to undress, I might as well take a nap while you’re at it.” I knew I was playing with fire, but what was life without some spark in it? It didn’t take much time for both of them to grab my ankles and pull me to the end of the bed. Lucius instantly dropped to his knees and spread my legs. The moment his tongue ran between my folds, Titus’ lips captured mine in a passionate kiss. All of my moans were muffled and silenced by his tongue, tasing me and exploring every bit of my mouth. When Lucius slid his tongue lower, I bit Titus’ lip to break the kiss. “What?” He asked, breathless. “What is Luc

Eden povWith Richard and Magnus by my sides, I felt at ease. The door opened and the music started. As soon as we stepped on the beautiful white carpet laid down the aisle, Lucius and Titus turned their heads to look in our direction. The moment their eyes set on me, blinding smiles spread across their lips. I had never thought about my wedding day, but I never imagined that my husband-to-be would cry seeing me. In reality, I had two men who were ready to die for me, and both had tears in their eyes. As I slowly walked down the aisle, I couldn’t tear my eyes away from them. Both were wearing perfectly tailored suits, a rose in their pockets. And best of all, they were holding each other’s hand. When I finally reached them, Richard squeezed my hand, whispered, “I’m so proud of you,” and then held my wrist to offer my hand to Lucius. Magnus did the same, but he whispered that I looked beautiful and he would punch his dad’s asses if they hurt me. Richard and Magnus took their assi
EDEN: The Daughter of the Moon HUNDRED THIRTY-TWO
Eden pov A week had passed since we returned home, like one, united family, better than ever. Lucius made it his life goal to ensure that my old pack had everything under control. As it turned out, the old Alpha was a liar, not a man of honor. He faked his disease to get rid of the responsibilities of leading a pack and while everyone worried about his health, the old Alpha lived a life of luxury. That, of course, was sponsored by the wealth left to me by my mother as well. Recently, the new Alpha and his Luna found out that the pack was nowhere near struggling financially even without my money. They had loads of cash hidden all over the place and multiple incoming money streams. We all agreed that it had to be the plan of the old Alpha and my step-mother. They had to have been planning to save up as much as they could, bleed the pack dry and take off. But as for us, our life was great. My mates were better than ever, Richard took it upon himself to bond with our son and b

Eden pov This was one of those moments when I really needed Kanox. I needed his advice or at least to hear his voice. While I had no idea what I was supposed to do, he would definitely have the answer. My eyes focused on the sick creature, wearing someone’s else’s skin as if that was no big deal. He looked human, but didn’t smell like one. Honestly, if he were to walk among other humans, I had little to no hope that anyone around him would understand that he was a sick, sinister creature, not one of their own. When he stepped so close I could smell a hint of sulfur on him, I realized he wasn’t just another supernatural. This was the first time I caught on the smell as well. “Will you first tell me the full story about my parents?” Clearly, he saw through me. I wanted to know, yes, but I also was using the question to stall, to win some time for my mates. “Of course, anything for you,” it said, grinning. I gulped, growing more nervous with every second that passed, but

Titus povI had no idea how Lucius felt about this, but what I found extremely fascinating was how the old man spoke about Eden. He sounded amazed and scared shitless at the same time. Sure, I wasn’t the best person to judge one’s character without massive amounts of information, but I could have sworn that he was just as clueless about what this ‘special’ trait was as we were. “And?” Lucius broke the silence, urging the old man to tell us more. The grunt that left him clearly was a proof of his unwillingness to tell us more, not that Lucius cared anyway. “Richard, we are done playing games. It is our mate you are talking about, Titus and I deserve to know what’s so special about Eden and exactly why that creature is after her.” My eyes darted between them two as I imagined an intense tennis match. The ball went from one side of the court to the other, never reaching the ground or the white lines surrounding them. At this rate, this imaginary match could go on for ages. “There a

Lucius pov“Where?” I growled the word as I stomped to him, grabbed his throat and squeezed it until I cut off his air supply. I trusted this fool. I trusted him with the safety of my mate and this is how it came out? He ran like a bloody coward while our mate was taken by some mad lunatic and brought Goddess knew where? Richard’s hands grabbed mine as he struggled to get out of my hold, but I had none of it. Whatever would happen next was out of my control - this time, I would allow Xabat take the fucking thing he loved almost as much as he loved our mates. Richard’s spine. Titus rushed to my side and carefully placed his hand on my shoulder. “Xabat, babe, let him go. Trust me, we need him alive. It wasn’t his fault. Don’t make this harder than it already is. Listen to what the old man has to say, maybe he has ideas where that fuckhead took Eden. We need the old man.” Honestly, I wouldn’t have released Richard. Ever. He had to pay for his carelessness and lack of attempts to save
EDEN: The Daughter of the Moon HUNDRED TWENTY-EIGHT
Eden povMy eyebrows furrowed in confusion. I understood that this thing was on some weird quest because of my late mother, but why was her blood so damn important? While I was busy trying to figure it out, the creature snapped his fingers and suddenly, my eyes opened with ease. The weight was gone and nothing held me down, except for the restraints on my legs. “See, it wasn't so hard, was it?” It mocked me.My eyes scanned the dark room until they set on the black blob of nothingness in the furthest corner. I might be freaking dreaming because I could have sworn the thing was grinning at me. It had no mouth, no eyes, no limbs - nothing. And yet, I could feel his eyes on me and see the non-existent grin across the lips. “Do not worry, my lovely. I shall help you see me in a better light soon. You see, I have brought a friend with me. Trust me, you’ll love him. I chose him to fit your liking. I told you that I’ve been watching, haven’t I?” With that being said, the thing disappear
