[Xavier’s POV]

For as long as I lived, I was never going to forget the smile Layla had on her face immediately she saw that I had returned, maybe not in one piece, but at least, I was alive.

“Xavier,” she said, as she ran to meet me before I got to where she was and embraced me tightly.

I had been raging with fury just some minutes ago, but my heart melted as she engulfed me with her warmth.

“You’re alive. I’m so glad you’re alive,” she said, heaving a sigh of relief.

I smiled, softly stroking her hair. “Well, I’m glad you’re glad,” I said.

Suddenly, she pulled away from my embrace and surprisingly began to hit me on the chest with a deep frown plastered on her face. It didn’t hurt, not even in the slightest bit, but I held her clenched fist wondering why she was doing that to me.

“Let me go, you asshole,” she said.

“Did she just call the Alpha an asshole?” someone wondered aloud.

“Did I do something wrong?” I inquired, still holding her hand.

She hit me once with her other hand, agai

    [Xavier’s POV]“What is going on there?” Roman asked in a loud voice as he stepped out.We had gotten to the Palace, but the guards were refusing to let us in, and that had caused a serious argument amongst us all. As we walked, other members of the Pack who were curious to know what was going on had followed us to the Palace.Everything had completely changed, and Roman had turned the Shadow Pack upside down. The elders were just a bunch of thieves ruling the people now, and I heard the stories from the members of the Pack as we stormed over to the Palace.The Pack which was once rosy had turned into a den of suffering and poverty; the Beta, Roman and most of the other elders were exploiting the people and had increased their taxes by over thirty percent, rogues had been employed to wreck havoc upon those who couldn’t afford to meet up with the payment of their taxes, and the high class ones were basically living off the hard work of the Omegas.It was just like in the olden days, an

    [Xavier’s POV]“What?” everyone chorused, shocked to the bone.“Even the Moon Goddess acknowledges her as the best one for me, so who are you to think that you are better than her?” I asked, looking Veronica deep in the eyes.She seemed like she couldn’t believe her ears, and kept on shaking her head in denial. “So, all this time... all this time, you’ve known she is your mate, why did neither of you say anything about it?” Veronica inquired.“That is none of your business. Henceforth, my mate will no longer be addressed as a slave, or the daughter of a traitor. She is to be addressed as Layla Clayton, or the Alpha’s mate. Also, her family is hereby exonerated from the death of my father and they can freely return back to the Pack,” I announced.There were murmurs from the crowd as they seemed to strongly disagree with my last statement.“I have good reason to believe that they aren’t responsible for the death of my father. Someone else is, and I’ll find out who that person is and beh

    [Layla’s POV]I looked sideways carefully before stepping out of my bedroom and closing the door gently behind me. Almost everything had changed. The people were happy. The Alpha King was given the respect he deserved. Roman was in prison. No one had heard from the Beta or his daughter. Only the elders who had been found clean had been reinstated, while the criminals had received befitting punishments.However, some of the things which needed to go back to normal wasn’t possible yet. Jeffrey hadn’t been found even though a reward of 1000 gold bars had been placed for anyone who found him, Elsa wasn’t so close to me anymore as she was hell-bent on finding Jeffrey, Xavier and I hadn’t gotten back together, my family hadn’t returned, and Lady Millicent spent so much time looking gloomy without bothering to even wear makeup.Presently, I was tiptoeing past the hallway gently so that Xavier would not detect my presence. I was also holding my breath as well.“Where are you going to?” Michae

    [Xavier’s POV]I kissed her back with so much desire, and slid my hands down to her waist, groping her ass as she mumbled a small moan. We were hungry for each other and we didn’t hesitate to satisfy our hunger.I pushed her to the table, and helped her sit down where she released her lips from mine, searching my eyes with a look that questioned whether or not she wanted to continue.I didn’t want to force her to do anything, so I removed my hands from her waist, but to my surprise, she reached out for my hands and put them back on, and I knew that was the signal I needed to continue.I plastered my lips on hers and slid my tongue into her mouth, kissing her softly and my hands found the way to her zipper which I unzipped and peeled the dress she was putting on off her skin. She flipped her hair over to the side, deciding it was best if she didn’t obstruct the view of her sitting on the table looking so beautiful in just her bra and lace panties.“You are so beautiful,” I whispered, n

    [Layla’s POV]“How do I look?” I asked Michaela, feeling nervous as hell.“Wow. You look beautiful, your highness,” she said, with a genuine smile on her face.I heaved a deep sigh, and gazed back at my reflection in the mirror. “I don’t know, Michaela. What if I am underdressed or something?” I asked.Her smile grew wider and she massaged my shoulders gently. “Trust me, your highness. You’ll be the most beautiful one out there,” she said to me.I forced a smile on, feeling a little bit reassured. “Thanks, Michaela. I’ll take your word for it,” I said, then stood up from the chair, and stepped into the glass slippers waiting for me at the edge of the table.A knock sounded on the door, and Michaela asked me to hold on while she went to check on who was at the door.“Kyle!” she exclaimed, smiling shyly at him.“Hey,” he said. He sounded nervous, really nervous.“Um... what brings you here?” she asked, after moments of silence, giggles and awkward shyness.“The Alpha King has been waiti

    [Layla’s POV]Six months later.I stirred in my sleep, with a smile on my face, refusing to wake up from the beautiful dream I was having. Xavier and I were by the poolside, and he was stroking my hair while we laughed and discussed about what had happened in the council meeting that day.“Mum, there’s a butterfly... a butterfly,” my little pup who looked exactly like Xavier cried as he ran, chasing a butterfly.“Mum?” I mumbled, dryly. “Mum,” I said, this time in an affirmative tone.My eyelashes fluttered and I opened my eyes instantly, and sat up immediately looking up at the white ceiling.Didn’t they say having dreams about kids meant that you will be having a child soon enough? Once again, my hope had been restored.I climbed out of bed, filled with so much happiness and glee. “Michaela,” I called.I raced to where the calendar hung just by the side of the mirror next to the dressing table, and went to check the marked dates which in turn made me smile even more broadly.“Michae

I mean, I want children, yes, but Layla is my only priority. I just wish there was something I could do to make her feel better,” I said.“I understand. I think she wouldn’t have been feeling this terrible if she hadn’t gotten pregnant before,” Kyle said.“Yeah... and it’s my fault that she lost that pregnancy,” I said.“No. It was Roman and...”“Enough of apportioning blames to others already. If I had trusted her, all this wouldn’t have happened. No! If I had had common sense and not caused harm to a pregnant woman whether she was carrying my child or not, all this wouldn’t have happened. I’m scared... so scared,” I said to him.“The Alpha doesn’t get scared,” Kyle stated.I snickered. “Since when did you place me in the leag

    [Layla’s POV]“You asked to see me in the middle of a meeting. Is everything okay?” Xavier inquired.I didn’t wait for him to finish speaking when I reached out to him and wrapped my arms around his neck, kissing him with intense desire. He kissed me back, responding with the same desire.Our tongues touched and we felt each other's blood as we both drank it like water... it was sweet, but it still left me feeling unsatisfied. He grabbed my thighs forcefully as I felt his hands move from mine and slide up to my crotch, he slowly started squeezing it as he moved his tongue into my mouth again.We made out for a while until our breathing became heavy; I could feel sweat drip from my forehead. He moved me on top of the bed, and we lay in each others arms as we held on to each other. Our hearts were beating rapidly as we felt ourselves getting aroused once more; he removed my underwear and took off his pants, placing a kiss on my neck.He lifted me up so that I would rest against the bed

    [Author’s POV]After unlocking the door, Alpha Xavier stepped into the chamber. It was his father’s, and since he died, he had not for once entered inside for any reason whatsoever, mostly because he was ashamed to face him after being unable to find out the person who had caused his untimely death.Everything looked the same, except that dust now made it almost impossible to breathe while in there. He reminisced about a whole lot of things as he ran his eyes over all his possessions which still remained in the chamber. He should have moved in there, but he hadn’t had the heart to.Alpha Xavier took a long look at the picture frame hanging on the wall. It was of him and his father the very day he had transformed for the first time. His father looked so proud of him, and he had been extremely happy because he made his father proud.He drew out the seat next to the table, and sat there staring into the mirror and seeing his father’s reflection staring back at him.

    “Almost a year ago, I overheard a conversation between my late uncle and the former Beta here. My uncle had found out that he had been stealing and coveting the people’s wealth, precious stones and our natural resources. Before his trip to the Dark Moon Pack, he said that if the Beta doesn’t relinquish all that he had stolen and make a public apology, as well as step down from his position, he was going to expose him in the most disgraceful manner when he came back, unknown to me that the Beta was aware that I had been eavesdropping on their conversation.“He then called me privately and twisted my mind by telling me he would make me the next Alpha King if only I kept quiet. I was stupid and greedy, so I agreed, not knowing that the price for my silence was my uncle’s life. When he died, I confronted him but he manipulated me into keeping quiet and doing all other dirty jobs for him. I stand here today to apologise for all that I did, ranging from not exposing the truth earlier on, bu

    [Xavier’s POV]“Your... your highness, it is not what you think,” Veronica said, falling on her knees as she shook her head in negativity.The whole world had seen her shame.“It is exactly what I think it is, you good-for-nothing deceiver. I should have known better than to trust you. You were never pregnant after all,” I roared at her angrily.“I’m sorry. I never meant to do something like this. It was my father that...”“May the goddess strike you down if my name comes out of your miserable mouth again,” her father said, as he stood up and marched to where we were, which brought about more surprised looks from the audience.“Dad!” she exclaimed, as though she had been betrayed.“Veronica!” he yelled back. “All this is your fault, and you know it. If only you had slept with him like I commanded you to, you would have truly gotten pregnant for him since you were in your fertility period, but instead, you chickened out and I had to come up with another solution,” he revealed.“Wait.

    [Layla’s POV]I clipped the diamond earrings to my ears and stared at my reflection in the mirror. I looked really elegant, dressed in a long white dress which shone with precious stones that had been affixed onto it, with silver heels embracing my feet.I rubbed my wedding band with a smile on my face as I stood up, then began to walk out of the bedroom. Michaela, who had been trying to finish up her fries looked up, and her mouth was instantly agape as soon as she saw me.“You look so beautiful, your highness,” she said, not hiding the admiration she had for me.“Thank you, Michaela. I should look beautiful, don’t you think? Today is the day that all my enemies will be brought to their knees,” I said, then gave a small chuckle.“Yes, your highness. I am so glad this is finally drawing to an end, and you and the Alpha can be happy forever without anyone ruining your joy,” she stated.I gave a small smile. “You’re right. Peace and happiness are the two things I have always desired in

    [Layla’s POV]I stepped into the room where Jeffrey was being treated as that was where the guard I had seen positioned at Xavier’s bedroom door said he was.He was sitting on a stool next to Jeffrey’s bed. Jeffrey still hadn’t opened his eyes, and he hadn’t even moved a single finger. Xavier looked deep in thoughts and he hadn’t even noticed my presence yet.“Hey, baby,” I said, giving him a kiss on the cheek, to notify him of my presence.He jolted from his thoughts and looked surprised on seeing me. He yawned tiredly and rubbed his eyes with his fingers.“My love, I didn’t realise you came in,” he said.“I noticed. Tell me, what’s on your mind?” I asked, drawing a seat to sit beside him.“I’m just lost in thoughts. I can’t help but wonder why someone like him would do such a thing,” he said.“Who are you talking about?” I inquired.“It’s not something you should be worried about, my love,” he said, forcing a smile on.“Well, I want to know what it is that has kept you away from me

    “What’s that supposed to mean? Answer me, come on, answer me!” I yelled at him.“Easy, dear cousin. Shouting isn’t going to change the fact that what’s done is done. In fact, if you yell at me one more time, I may choose to withhold all the information I have to give,” Roman said, sitting up on the ground which he had just been sprawled on a few minutes ago.“Leave us alone,” I said to the onlookers which consisted of the guards and the other prisoners in Roman’s cell.They all began to leave, including Kyle. “Not you, Kyle,” I said, and he stayed back while the rest left. Apparently, the prison guards were going to keep the inmates in another cell.“Want a little private chitchat with your cousin?” Roman asked, with a wink.I crouched, then taking him by surprise, grabbed him by the neck and began to strangle him while he tried to resist as he almost choked to death.“Listen to me, and listen real good. It will cost me nothing to end your life right here and now. The only one who is

    [Xavier’s POV]I placed the box which Layla had given me carefully in the safe which always stayed hidden in my closet and looked like just a mere suitcase. No one would guess that some of my important stuff were actually there, and once I closed the door to my closet, I took out the button which had been in my pocket all day and examined it carefully once again.“Kyle. Kyle is back,” I said to myself, hearing the “welcome” greetings which they were saying to him as he hadn’t been in the Palace for a few weeks due to the special mission I had sent him on.I hurried out of my bedroom immediately and slammed the door behind me. The two guards positioned at the door started to follow me, but I told them to stop immediately.“I have a private matter to attend to. Wait for me here,” I said, and hastily left where they were.I was still walking with long strides when I bumped into Lady Millicent who was coming from the opposite direction.“Greetings, Alpha King Xavier. I’m sorry for bumping

    [Layla’s POV]I kissed him back.It was the first time since we had fought, and kissing him now made me realise how much I missed him, how much I loved him... how much I craved his touch.The kiss deepened as his tongue slipped into my mouth, hands gripping me like I was the last piece of oxygen in the world... My body reacted to it before my mind did. His grip tightened on me as I pulled him closer, feeling him grind against me from behind.Our kiss continued until we were both out of breath, panting for more. My hand roamed over his chest, slowly working its way lower. He groaned, leaning down so our foreheads met. He stared into my eyes, his own full of want and need. I moved forward again, my lips brushing against his once, twice, three times before he leaned his head down so our lips met once more, his hand still on my back.This time, it was different. It was soft at first, but quickly turned hard as a moan left his lips when I pressed down further. My lips moved against his, an

    [Xavier’s POV]I had been humiliated before everyone, and although I knew I could never feel the pain Layla had felt while losing our child, this was way out of bounds. I was angry, furious and never in my life had I felt so insulted.What exactly had I said that was wrong for her to hit me in the presence of my own people? That had automatically reduced the respect they possibly had for me.“She believes she has you wrapped around her fingers, that’s why she does whatever she likes these days. She knows you love her and you don’t see her wrongs,” Veronica said, while the women and servants present still looked shocked with their eyes and mouths wide open.“Everyone, calm down. Things like this happen. You can all go back to your respective homes and businesses,” I told them, brushing off what Veronica had said.“Yes, your highness,” they chorused.I turned my back around and began to leave hastily to avoid facing further embarrassment, while Veronica hurried after me, trying to pick
