Mia

I sighed, looking at the two warrior men following me. Bulky while possessing strong and muscular physiques, showcasing their physical strength and endurance. Gifted with broad shoulders, well-developed arms, and powerful legs, indicating their training and combat readiness. Their imposing stature and robust build would instill a sense of fear and respect among their adversaries, but not me. 

Now the question was if I could take them down single-handedly. Well, I had no other choice but to give it a try. With a flick of my wrist, I pivoted, the blades I hid under my shirt slashing through the air. Surprise flickered in the eyes of the two men as my strikes found their mark, rendering them momentarily defenseless.

The forest bore witness to my movements, which were a symphony of calculated strikes and evasions, my daggers a deadly extension of my thoughts. With a swift, calculated blow, I disarme

    Mia"Sylvia," I called her and she turned from whatever new potion she was experimenting on, to have a look at me."Oh good Lord! Mia?" She ran to me, engulfing me in a hug. "What the hell even happened? How did you get back?" My heart ached because this was the kind of reaction I was expecting from my father. I had made a little trip to my room to hide the book of enchantments before making my way here. I had planned to study it all night."Well, I tricked them." She gave me a look that screamed 'are you kidding me'."You need to give me more than that honey," she said. My thoughts wandered off to the whole situation of finding my mate, to making them trust me until I betrayed them. Was I going to give her the details? I didn't know."Sylvia, I need to ask you a few things." She nodded her head, indicating for me to go on. "Dad. Was

    MiaI walked into the kitchen to grab myself something to eat when I saw Sophie, one of our maids, taking what seemed like a very stale piece of bread and a bottle of half-filled water on a tray. Damn, how scrumptious. Note the sarcasm. Who in the world would give that to anyone to eat?"Whose feast is that?" I questioned, scrunching my face at the so-called meal."The prisoner in the dungeon," she answered softly."You mean Anastasia a?" I raised a brow, gulping down some water from a bottle nearby."If that's her name, then yes. I was just given orders to keep her alive and give something for her to have once a day." I felt bad comparing the food I got in my time I spent as the prisoner at the Red Moon Pack, and what they were giving her here. Although two times a day, they did give me at least some good stuff to eat.

    Christian 'You should come out and see this. ' Gamma Arnold mind linked me, making me drop my pen, trying to put a meaning to his words. 'See what?' I sked through the link once again. 'Find out for yourself, will you?'I dismissed the papers I was engaged in, before moving out of the pack house towards the garden fields, where all the whispers were coming from. Dominic had gone for some important meetings with the council and other packs, leaving me in complete authority and in charge of the pack. Some warriors and pack members had collected outside, circling around something. "What's going on here?" I pushed through the people to get a better view. I was caught off guard watching the two warriors that I had sent with Mia, completely bruised and tattered in blood, struggling to keep their eyes open. "Beta Christian!" One of them struggled to speak as he gasped for air. "Where is Mia? What happened to you guys?" My mind was caught in a haze of rage as the only thing that blared

    ChristianI observed Dominic's back as he continued looking out of the window. His posture was rigid and I could feel the rage radiating off him. But he remained silent. His beast was something else. Different from everyone else. He wasn't your ordinary werewolf. Well, neither one of us was since we were royalty, but his was something else. And that is the only reason he keeps him at bay and only lets him come out when things need to be dealt with, in his own way. And his way is definitely not a good way. And he has taught me to follow his footsteps. So, yes, I follow his ways. And man do I enjoy them! Call me sick, but yep, torturing your enemies in the worst possible ways that people could hardly even imagine was pleasing to our sight. We had grown up with it.But right now, the situation is very grave. I was scared. For Mia. She sided with the enemy. That was my only fucking job. To make her feel enough to kno

    Mia I hadn't slept the whole night. I couldn't. Sleep won't come to me. The eye-bags were screaming for themselves, of the the torture I had put my eyes through last night. One look at me and anyone could guess I was fucking depressed, crying my eyes out the previous night. So I did what a girl can do. Concealer. Loads of it. Making my way down to the kitchen to grab myself something to eat. I had to do something to get out of here. I needed to warn Christian that Balthazar was going to attack them. Yes, I had lost my respect for him, he was no longer my dad. My blood boiled all over again thinking of that vile creature. But I had to handle things cleverly. I can't blow up anything yet. Fuck, I had even told Balthazar all the ins and outs, everything I knew about the pack. Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! Christian. My thoughts ran back to him. He would probably hate me after what I did. Who wouldn't? But could I be blamed? I don't really know. I did betray them. Did the exact thing that my so-c

    Mia "Going somewhere?" My breath hitched, my hands halted on the door knob that was going to lead us out of this hell hole before a very similar voice made its way to my ears. Slowly turning back, my eyes fell on Balthazer standing at the end of the living room wearing a smirk, his hands tucked behind him as he looked composed as ever. Behind him stood the leech and, of-fucking-course, the snitch Desmond. Calm down Mia, think! Think quick! "Dad!" I exclaimed, pulling Anastasia before me to lock her throat between my arm and my chest. "This bitch! She was trying to escape. Good thing you are here on time!" I heard Anastasia whimper at the sudden action. But Balthazer looked bored. "You really thought I wouldn't find someone out of their bed in the middle of the night, eavesdropping at my door?" What the- no don't panic, Mia. Don't panic. You've got this! "What are you talking about? Who was that dad? Was it this bitch?" I kicked Anastasia behind her knees, making her drop to t

    Mia "Goodness Sylvia!" I heaved out a sigh as she removed the hood to uncover her face. "You almost had me throwing a spell at you," she looked at me with an 'are you serious' look. "I understand why that person is lying unconscious-" "Dead," she cut me off. "Pardon?" "He's lying dead," she clarified and I looked at him. "Oh," she actually killed him? With a dart? "It was laced with poison." She answered my thoughts. "Right, so as I was saying before you interrupted me, I understand why he is dead, but I don't understand why you took me out with the dart at the time of the war?" "Ah, so you did see me." I raised my brow with a 'duh' look on my face. "It was to get you away from the field." "But why?" "You remember the paralyzing potion?" I nodded, remembering the one she prepared to take out the wolves at the time of the war. "Well, it wasn't just a paralyzing potion. It was also mixed with an infestation charm." "A what charm?" Was she for real? "An infestatio

    Mia All three men pounced on me with their wands held up. Spell after spell which I dodged before firing my arrows at them. Some got them, some they missed easily. Finally, after running out of arrows, I pulled out my blades. This fight is going to get dirty. But there was just me standing alone, and freaking three full sized wizards. Did I even stand a chance against them? Hell no. But was I going to stop until I gave my all? Of course not. I flung the dagger at one of the men, and he stumbled back in pain as it struck a little above his heart. That gave me enough time to deal with the other two. I lunged forward at them, the blades shining in my hand as I shot the only spell I remember, causing a fireball to hit their hands. As a result, they finally dropped their wands. That was all I needed to get near them and start carving the skins with my blade. I plunged the dagger’s blade in their stomach and was ready to shoot more when I heard a warning. “Behind you Mia!” Anastasia c

  • Enchanting Royalty   Epilogue

    Christian's POVA year had passed since Mia and I stood before our pack, surrounded by family and friends, and pledged ourselves to each other. The memory of that day was as vivid as if it had happened yesterday, yet the time between then and now had been filled with more life and love than I could’ve ever imagined.I stood on the balcony of our suite in the packhouse, watching the early morning sun rise over the treetops. The territory was peaceful this time of day, the woods that bordered the pack lands bathed in golden light. The packhouse was bustling with activity on most days, but in the quiet hours of the morning, it was serene—almost like the calm before the storm.Inside, the sound of giggles filled the air, followed by Mia’s soft voice calling out to our pups. Alaric was always the first to wake, full of energy and mischief, while Sylvia took her time, blinking up at us with sleepy eyes, like she needed more convincing to start the day.I walked back inside, and there they w

    Christian's POVThe last few months had been a blur of sleepless nights and the kind of love I never imagined existed. Holding my children, Alaric and Sylvia, in my arms, watching them grow stronger with each passing day, it was like discovering a new part of myself I didn’t know was there. But even amid the chaos of fatherhood, there was one thing that I couldn't stop thinking about—the wedding. Our wedding.After everything that had happened, from nearly losing Mia to the joy of becoming parents, I needed to make her mine in every way, just like I promised. To see her walk down the aisle, to vow my life to hers before the world and not just in the way of our kind but as man and wife, before humans and every species alike. It was important to me. I wanted everyone to know that she was my everything.Planning a wedding, while also taking care of two pups, wasn’t easy, but I had a lot of help. Julia and Anastasia were incredible, practically organizing everything while Mia focused on h

    Christian’s PovThe sterile smell of the hospital room filled the air as I stood by Mia’s side, gripping her hand tightly. My heart pounded in my chest as the doctors prepared for the surgery, and I made sure everything was set exactly as it needed to be. I had insisted on a female doctor and healer for Mia, knowing how important it was for her to feel comfortable during this delicate time. But no matter how many precautions I took, I couldn’t shake the fear clawing at my insides.Mia’s gaze flickered to mine, her eyes wide with anxiety, but I leaned down, pressing a soft kiss to her forehead, trying to give her some semblance of reassurance. “I’m right here, baby. I won’t leave your side. We’ll get through this together.”The room bustled with quiet urgency, the healers whispering to each other as they prepared the tools, but all I could focus on was Mia. Her face was pale, but her grip on my hand never faltered.The doctor, a calm and steady woman named Dr. Alina, approached Mia’s s

    Christian’s PovAs the tension in the room finally began to ease, I wiped the remnants of tears from my face, still holding Mia’s hand like a lifeline. Her breathing had stabilized, though she still looked pale and exhausted. The doctors had done everything they could, but seeing her so fragile made my chest tighten all over again.The door creaked open softly, and I looked up to see Julia, Anastasia, and Alpha Dominic enter. Their faces were lined with concern, especially Julia, whose eyes immediately darted to Mia.“She’s okay,” I whispered, barely able to hold it together. “She’s… she’s going to be okay.”Julia rushed over to Mia’s bedside, her expression softening with relief. “Thank the moon goddess,” she breathed, reaching down to stroke Mia’s hair gently.Anastasia stood behind her, nodding in agreement but still looking concerned. Alpha Dominic’s imposing figure lingered by the door for a moment before stepping closer, his eyes trained on Mia’s still figure.“She’s strong, Chr

    Christian’s PovThe second those lines on the heart monitor went straight, my world stopped. No. No, no, no. This couldn’t be happening.“Mia!” I screamed, my voice cracking as I lurched forward. The doctors were swarming around her, shouting orders and moving in a blur. Everything felt distant, muffled, like I was underwater, and the only thing I could hear clearly was that relentless, high-pitched whine from the machine that told me her heart had stopped. Her heart had stopped.My mate, my Mia, was slipping away, and there wasn’t a damn thing I could do.I surged toward the bed, grabbing the nearest doctor by the collar, yanking him back with all the strength I had left in me. “Do something!” I snarled, my voice barely human. “Save her!”“We’re trying!” The doctor’s voice trembled, fear flickering in his eyes as he tried to pry himself free from my grip. But I didn’t let go. I couldn’t. If I let go, it felt like I was admitting defeat. Like I was letting her go.The room spun arou

    Mia’s PovI found myself standing in a place I couldn’t recognize—an endless expanse of white, serene and calm. The air felt cool, not like the sterile cold of a hospital room, but something softer, almost comforting. It was quiet, too quiet, but I felt no fear. Instead, there was an overwhelming sense of peace, like I had walked into another world where the troubles of reality couldn’t touch me.I took a step forward, my bare feet sinking slightly into the soft ground that didn’t seem to exist yet held me all the same. My heart felt lighter, the pain I had experienced moments ago in my body now a distant memory. As I moved through this space, something in the distance caught my eye—a garden, vivid and lush, teeming with colorful flowers that seemed too perfect to be real. Drawn to it, I walked without hesitation, my heart inexplicably pulling me toward the scene.At the far end of the garden, I saw a figure kneeling among the flowers, her hands delicately plucking the petals of a blo

    Author’s PovMia’s world dissolved into a swirl of chaos and darkness. Her body, though fainted and still in the hospital bed, was trapped within the depths of a vivid, horrifying memory. It played out before her eyes like a movie—too real, too painful. She was no longer the adult Mia. Instead, she felt herself small, fragile, and terrified—a four-year-old child once again.The air was thick with the acrid smell of smoke and the deafening sounds of cries. She stood in the corner of her childhood home—her pack, her tiny frame trembling as she clutched her knees to her chest. Flames licked the edges of the walls, and the screams of her pack members echoed around her. They were dying. She could hear it—shouts, cries, the horrifying crackle of fire devouring everything in its path.Little Mia bawled, tears streaming down her face as she watched people—people she knew—falling to the ground. Her tiny body was shaking, her heart racing in terror. She felt helpless, too scared to move. The de

    Author’s Pov4 Months LaterThe sun bathed the garden in a golden glow, casting soft shadows over the blooming roses and perfectly trimmed hedges. Mia sat comfortably between Ana and Julia, her hands resting on her swollen belly as they enjoyed their afternoon tea. It had been months since the ceremony, and with each passing day, the anticipation of the baby’s arrival grew stronger. They laughed, their conversation carefree as Ana excitedly showed Mia a variety of tiny gifts she had bought for the baby—soft blankets, little shoes, and a beautifully carved wooden rattle.Mia smiled warmly, feeling the gentle kicks of life inside her. The baby wasn’t due for another month, and despite the natural aches and discomforts of pregnancy, she had felt relatively good. "Look at this," Ana beamed, holding up a little onesie with "Beta in Training" stitched across the front. "Isn’t it adorable? He’s going to look so cute in this!"Mia laughed softly, touching the fabric. "It’s perfect. Thank you

    Mia’s PovThe moment Dominic disappeared, leaving behind an awkward silence, the royal music began to play—filling the grand hall with a soft, majestic melody. It was as if the music had been timed perfectly to diffuse the tension in the air, giving everyone an excuse to focus on something else. The elegant chords of violins and the regal notes of flutes swept through the room, calming the uneasy murmurs that had begun.Christian turned to me, his smile softening the moment. “Dance with me?” he asked, his voice low and inviting, one hand outstretched toward me.Despite everything, I couldn’t help the smile that crept onto my face. “I’d love to.”I placed my hand in his, and he guided me effortlessly to the center of the dance floor, where other couples had already begun to pair off, the royal rhythm guiding their movements. The grand chandeliers above shimmered, casting a golden glow over everything as we stepped into position.Christian’s hand settled on the small of my back, pulling
