Morticia.Smashing a vase on the ground, I screamed, grabbing my hair as I tried to control my anger, my heart racing in my chest. What the hell? Although, I wasn't there, I had heard rumors about what went down in the Alpha kings meeting. It went like this, 'The Alpha Kings were busy with Evelyn as usual but Kieran had intervened, cutting it short and had taken Evelyn out of there.' Why? Why would he do such a thing? This is going to ruin my plans, Damnit! Needing clarifications for his actions, I decided to go see him. I left my chambers, heading straight to his.The weight of anger and frustration settled deep within me as I made my way to his chambers. The events of the day gnawed at my insides, a bitter reminder of a battle I was slowly losing. I couldn't let this stand. Not when I had come so far, not when I had risked so much. I can't let it happen, I just can't.My footsteps echoed through the dimly lit corridor, each stride fueling my determination to confront him, to demand
Evelyn.I woke up with a pounding headache, my entire body aching and feeling heavy. My eyes fluttered open, my gaze unfocused as I stared around me, trying to make sense of my surroundings. The soft sunlight spilled through the curtains, illuminating everything that it touched with it's golden hues, a stark contrast to the cold, barren crib I had called home for weeks. Slowly, the fog of sleep lifted, and I remembered the events of the previous day. Dread settled deep within me.Clutching the bedsheets tightly, I scrambled to my seat, my hands flying to check every part of my body. I reached out with trembling fingers, instinctively checking my body for any signs of violation. To my surprise, there were no marks, no evidence of the torment I had expected. Confusion washed over me as I tried to make sense of it all. Did they not go through with it?"You're awake." A voice broke through the eerie silence, sending a jolt of fear through me. I turned my head slowly to the source, my bre
Amaris.The night was long, filled with restlessness and worry of my dear friend, Princess Evelyn. Tossing and turning on my small bed, I couldn't shake of the unease that had settled within me like a heavy cloud, my mind filled with thoughts of Evelyn. How was she doing? Was the Alpha king really looking after her? Why did he even summon her to his chambers? What the hell happened in the Alpha king's meeting? My heart ached for my friend and I prayed earnestly that she was safe.With the first rays of dawn painting the sky soft shades of pink and orange, I could no longer bewrr the suspense anymore, quietly, I slid out of my bed, careful not to disturb the other maids that still slumbered peacefully. The cold floor met the soles of my bare feet, sending a shiver up my spine, but I took in a deep breath, steeling myself. Changing from my nightclothes to something more appropriate, I hurried away from the maid's quarters, running through the courtyard to the main castle. Once I arrived
Amaris.My mouth went dry as I beheld the figure that stood before me. Duke Ethan Ravenwood, Ruler of the Moonshadow Dukedom. What is he doing here? I wondered as I stared at him, my heart pounding in my chest. I held my breath, unable to form any words."Ethan?" I whispered, my voice barely more than a breath. The figure before me was unmistakable. Tall with chestnut brown hair that was brushed neatly to the back with a single trendril framing his beautifully carved out face, he was a man I had once called my mate.The man who had rejected me. Now that I think about it, he seemed more powerfully built and intimidating than I remembered, I thought to myself as I stared at him. What is he doing here in the silver crest kingdom, miles away from his own dukedom? My thoughts spun like a whirlwind as I desperately sought answers.His voice, as deep and resonant as ever, shattered the fragile silence. "Amaris," he acknowledged, his voice holding a note of restraint as he glowered down at me,
Alpha king keiran.The night was a shroud of darkness, and within it, I was imprisoned, ensnared by my own memories. Each night, the same torment replayed in my restless slumber. I could never escape my past, no matter how desperately I tried.I woke up with a jolt, sweat clinging to my skin, my hand trembling and my body burning hot despite the coldness in the room. My chest heaved, my heart pounding, and the pain, both physical and emotional was all to real, I could feel it etched into my body, mind and soul, the scars of a lifetime worth of suffering.As I sat there, I couldn't help but recall the nightmare that had haunted my sleep. It was a memory I had buried deep inside of me, a piece of my history I wished to forget. But tonight, with it's cruel insistence, had dragged it to the surface once more. Though it was ages ago, it felt just like yesterday.I was no more than a young boy, crouched on the cold, unforgiving floor in a tiny dark cell room. My body bore the marks of a cru
Evelyn.Days passed after the horrible time at the Alpha king's meeting and things had smoothened out for me fortunately. I continued my life as a slave, falling into a monotonous routine that included spending my morning cleaning the palace before going to the mines where I spent the rest of my days, tilling the ground.The mines had become my second home. Each day, I descended into the earth's cold, unforgiving embrace, my fingers scraping at the rocky surface in search of the hidden treasures it held. Some days were barren, the dirt yielding nothing but dust and disappointment. But today, today was different.Despite the Alpha king's confusing behavior towards me, my hatred for him had yet to abate and as time passed, I began thinking of ways to get rid of the monster that had caused me so much pain and heartache. The need to make him pay was starting to override my sense of reasoning and before long the idea grew till I had a plan set up.As my pickaxe struck the ground, a metalli
Evelyn.King Kieran pulled away from me, leaving me alone, panicking, and confused. I swallowed, trying to steady my quickened breaths. The cold air brushed my skin, goosebumps rising to the surface as I felt my hair stand on end. I tried to feel if I could escape but he'd bound me tight, leaving me defenseless. When he returned, his scent filled my nostril, causing me to go light-headed, my body ticklish."Drink this." He ordered, placing a wine goblet on my lips. I pressed my lips together at first but when he nudged at it hardly, I opened my mouth and drank the wine, feeling the liquid warm it's way down my throat, into my stomach. I heard him set down the cup and I bit my lips, holding my breath as I prepared for the painful onslaught.Imagine my surprise when I felt a feather gracing the surface of my skin. My brain short-circuited and I'm sure I had a stunned look on my face as his movements stilled. "Is... That a feather?" I asked without thinking."Shh..." He shushed me, befor
Evelyn.The darkness of night enveloped me as I lay in my small, dimly lit crib. The memories of earlier replayed in my mind, like a haunting melody refusing to fade away. I couldn't escape them; they clung to me like a relentless shadow. The Alpha King's chambers, his touch, his whispered promises – it all felt like a dream, or perhaps, a nightmare.My heart raced as I replayed the vivid images of that encounter in my mind. His strong hands binding mine, the silk blindfold that masked my vision, and his commanding voice that sent shivers down my spine. Everytime I closed my eyes or moved slightly, I could still feel his hands on mine and his mouth on my bosom, a warm feeling spreading through my entire body at the memory. Every sensation was etched into my mind, a stark contrast to the pain and humiliation I had endured as his slave.But what troubled me most wasn't the physical intimacy or the forbidden pleasure I had experienced; it was the undeniable truth that I had enjoyed it.

Evelyn.The morning sun bathed the Alpha King's castle in a warm glow, casting a golden hue over the grand chambers. Today was the day of the long-awaited banquet, a celebration of triumph and newfound peace. I woke up to Kieran pressing kisses all over my face and jawline, his strong arms stroking my waist as he nuzzled me awake. I opened my eyes, blinking away the remnants of sleep as I turned to face him."Rise and shine, beautiful. Today is going to be long day." He murmured, pressing another kiss to my lips, I smiled, resting my head on his chest as I fought the sluggishness away from my body. "Good morning," he groaned, caressing my hair."Good morning." I whispered, yawning. "I don't want to get up from this bed. It's so cozy." I murmured, snuggling deeper into the covers. He gently pulled them away, revealing me once again. I wore a mock frown at that."Trying to back down now? Sorry, but I can't let that happen." Kieran said, getting out of the bed and carrying me along so he
(Months later)Evelyn.Waking from a splendid sleep, I found Kieran lying behind me, his chest pressed against my back and one arm wrapped around my waist as we snuggled together, our limbs tangled together. Blinking away the sleep from my eyes, I slowly turned to face him, making sure not to wake from his slumber.Glancing at his face, I let my eyes roam around his body, watching his well-sculpted form softened by the peacefulness of sleep. I couldn't help but admire the scars that adorned his body, each one a testament to the battles he had fought. His face, framed by tousled hair, looked so serene in the morning light. I could just watch him on hours on end, not taking my eyes off him.Unable to resist touching him, I ran my fingers down his jawline, feeling as the muscle twitched beneath my fingers, the slight stubble grazing my fingertips. Breathing in lungfuls of his scent into my nose, I felt a warm heat begin in my stomach and was surprised at how quickly I could get aroused b
Amaris.As the golden hues of the setting sun painted the sky, Ethan and I strolled through the tranquil gardens of the palace, hand in hand. The weeks that followed the reclamation of the kingdom had gifted us a semblance of normalcy, a peace we had fought tirelessly to restore. The fragrant blooms seemed to whisper tales of resilience, echoing the quiet joy that had settled upon the reclaimed land.Ethan's busy schedule had momentarily given way to the call of a splendid evening, and we found solace in a leisurely walk, away from the weighty responsibilities that had gripped us in recently. The air was filled with the sweet scent of blossoms, and the soft breeze carried with it a promise of calmness.In the beautiful surroundings, Ethan turned to look at me, a questioning look in his face. "Amaris," he began, casting a warm gaze upon me, "what are your plans now that the kingdom has been reclaimed by the Alpha King?"I paused, contemplating his question. The truth was, in the wake o
Alpha King Kieran.Days and weeks passed and some sense of normalcy settled in the kingdom. Walking through the grand halls of the palace, I couldn't help but feel a sense of relief wash over me. The kingdom had been reclaimed, and Evelyn was back in my arms, safe and sound. I could still remember when she was brought back, the look of fear that gradually faded away when she realized the Kingdom had been reclaimed. Her laughter echoed through the corridors as she reunited with Amaris, Ethan, and ultimately, me. Her safety was a balm to my heart, and the weight of worry lifted. With each step toward her, I could feel the genuine smiles that graced our faces, a silent celebration of our shared victory. I held her close, showering her with kisses and love, grateful that everything had turned out alright.Together, we set about cleaning up the castle and repairing the damage that had been done. The once chaotic halls were now filled with the sounds of restoration, as we worked tirelessly
Alpha king Kieran.Under the blazing sun, the battlefield stretched before us as Callahan and I faced off, the intensity of the daylight accentuating the gravity of our confrontation. The first snarl tore through the eerie silence, and with a surge of primal energy, we both shifted into our wolf forms. The transformation was swift, the rustle of fur and bones morphing into deadly weapons. The cold wind carried the scent of impending violence, and the courtyard held its breath in anticipation.The clash was brutal, a symphony of growls and the clashing of teeth. Callahan, larger and seemingly more ferocious, lunged at me with relentless fury. His attacks were calculated, each strike a reminder of the ruthless training we had both undergone in our youth. For a moment, it seemed as though his skill would be my undoing, his taunts echoing through the courtyard and grating my ears."You always were the weak link, Kieran," he spat, circling me with predatory glee. "A pitiful excuse for a le
Alpha king keiran.In the quiet aftermath of our intimate moments, I sat beside Evelyn, watching the rhythmic rise and fall of her chest as she slept. The dim glow of the cave painted soft shadows across her peaceful face, her beautiful expression a soothing balm to my weary soul. The healing touch of her love had worked wonders on my battered body, causing most of my wounds to heal quickly and the toxins that has been put into my body already flushed out and as I gazed at her, I knew that I had to fulfill my duty and reclaim my kingdom from the clutches of Callahan.As the first light of dawn crept through the entrance, casting a delicate glow upon her, she stirred from her slumber. Her eyes, adjusting to the waking world, met mine with a mixture of vulnerability and understanding. It was the perfect moment, and yet, the hardest one."Kieran..." She murmured softly, reaching out to hold my hands, her body still unclad and so inviting. I forced myself to stare at her face, a small smi
Evelyn.In the quiet hours of the morning, we still lay intertwined, our limbs tangled up and Kieran's arm draped around my waist. Soon I felt his fingers moving across them, his gentle breathing intensifying as he pulled me closer, peppering kisses all over my jaw and neck. I let out a soft sigh, pretending I didn't know what he was doing. He soon pulled my legs apart, palm cradling the back of my knees as he raised my leg forward and slipped back into my body.I sighed sleepily, stirring to the intimate feel of him. He laid his cheek against my soft one, his plea echoing in the dark cave. "Need you."With a subtle movement of my hips, I silently granted him permission. Kieran released a low growl and began to move. This time, the urgency had waned, replaced by deliberate and intense strokes.Floating between a haze of wakefulness and full consciousness, I gradually awoke completely, meeting his movements with a rhythm of my own. In the pre-dawn silence, there was nothing but the sou
Evelyn.It was all the prodding Kieran needed as he smashed his lips on mine, stealing my breath and mind away. I immediately wrapped my hands around his neck, pulling him closer as I pushed my tongue deeper into his mouth. He groaned into the kiss, his hands tightening around my waist as he pressed my naked body to his chest. Electricity sizzled through me and I let out a soft moan, feeling my nipples grow taut.He pushed away to stare at my face, our breathing heavy as we stared into each other's eyes. I ran my hands through his disheveled hair, cupping his cheeks afterwards. His eyes burned with desire and so much more. So much love and tenderness. It was obvious he wanted to take this as low as he could, making sure not to hurt me."You're so incredibly beautiful, do you know that." He growled as he brushed my lips with his thumb. I nodded, smiling up at him."I know, you told me once before." I whispered, my voice soft. He let out a curt nod before he resumed kissing me, placing
