Chapter Thirty-Seven Elsa's POV I got to the training ground and walked to the exact spot where we trained the last time, hoping to see Prince Murray but he wasn't there. Instead, I met two warriors sparring in front of some recruits and teaching them how the fighting ought to be done. Instead of moving ahead to meet up with Prince Murray, I decided to watch them a little bit. "Perhaps, I could learn a thing or two from these guys," I said to myself, folding my arms to watch what was going on. The warriors did their thing, with each one of them taking turns striking and defending whilst dishing out instructions and counsel to the four recruits who sat and observed what was going on. Suddenly, I felt the warriors get more and more aggressive and I sensed that it wasn't part of the script anymore. They went from trying to teach the recruits to trying to show their supremacy over one another and what started as a sparring session became a full-blown contest. In a short time, they b
Chapter Thirty-eight Elsa's POV I watched on and made sure that Abigail had entered her room and locked the door and then I walked out of the building and began to make my way to the Pack borders where I felt the fight was going on. I didn't want to imagine that they had made their way into the Pack as that was going to be very bad for us. The warriors had to do all they could to make sure that never happened and I hoped that they did. I walked as fast as I could, although I took a few breaks to rest a bit so that I won't be too tired to fight when I'd get to the place of battle. I had no sword or any weapon at all in hand. I was going to fight a group of trained warriors without a weapon. It was folly at its peak, but I couldn't get myself to hide away while others in the Pack were putting their lives on the line for the Pack. My life wasn't even worth so much so I had no problem putting it there. I just had to find a way to get a weapon and what better way than to disarm a tra
Chapter Thirty-Nine Alpha Davon's POV "Thank you,' I said to Raymond as he walked me back to my room, helping me carry my sword and armour. He opened my door and I walked inside while he followed me behind. I walked straight to my bed and sat while he made his way to my wardrobe, placing what he carried on the floor, just in front of the wardrobe before turning to leave. "Are you certain that all the men were taken care of?" I asked him, just to make sure that no one survived the slaughter. "Yes, my Alpha. We chased them until they were all gone. However, there's always a chance that we might have missed one or two people who might have found a way to sneak out as we pursued, but of all that we were able to find, we left none alive." I was pleased but not as pleased as I'd have loved to be. If there was ever a chance that one or more of our enemies had escaped, there was always that possibility that they'll harbour thoughts of revenge toward us. In any case, we were going to b
Chapter Forty Elsa's POV It was only three days left before Alpha Davon would get married to Princess Alina. All the talk about the war had slowly died down as peace thrived once more in the Pack. It was highly expected after how the other two Packs were dispatched. They weren't even able to move past the Pack borders despite their numbers and that was something that would strike fear in the heart of anyone at all, even the Alphas of the other Packs. The possibility of him getting married after a few days would have made the fear grow even further. The strongest Pack in the realm was about to have a Luna Queen. It was an interesting time in the Pack. Invitations had been sent out to the different Packs. Abigail had to send invitations to two Packs even though it wasn't her job. Those Packs were said to be more welcoming to women and since she always loved to talk as boldly as she loved to, she was given the task by Prince Murray. She did it without any hassles, just as I expecte
Chapter Forty-One Alpha Davon's POV It had been over two hours since I asked for Elsa to come find me in my chambers but she was nowhere to be found. I usually wasn't used to being kept waiting by anyone, much less my subjects and I didn't appreciate it from her either. "Raymond!" I screamed, using my mind link as I knew he was nowhere close to my chambers. It was one of those moments when I loved using the mind link even if I wasn't so fond of it. "Go get me Elsa immediately. Make sure she comes with you." I had tried to discard the thought about calling out to Elsa several times but I just couldn't stop myself anymore. Troy, too, wasn't being so helpful. He kept making noise about how I was supposed to give Elsa a chance instead of just discarding her. "I think she's right about being your mate," he even dared to say. "I mean, I can feel her when she's close. I can feel her wd too, trying to reach out to me. Although it's less frequent these days I think it's just because they'
Chapter Forty-Two Prince Murray's POV Mandy smirked whilst staring at me. She said nothing at first, instead, running her eyes all around me before winking at me. Then, she began to run her hands on my chest. "You know, sometimes, things are better experienced than spoken about and we do have some unfinished business, don't we?" I didn't need a soothsayer to tell me what was going on. I knew exactly what she was talking about and I was quite ready for it; more than ready even. She leaned in and kissed me briefly, drawing backwards a bit to check my reaction to that. I licked my lips. Those lips of hers were too sweet. I pulled her close once again and kissed her once more, this time very deeply as I breathed into her mouth without caring, savouring every moment. She pushed me to the bed once again and kept on kissing me and then she began to take off her clothes in a hurry. I tried to help her but she hit my hands off, not needing any of that. She was back to her very aggress
Chapter Forty-Three Alpha Davon's POV I couldn't believe my eyes as I opened the door to Murray's room. I could have just knocked but I had this habit of walking into his room just like that. It was always fun. I just never expected to see something like that. "What's going on here?" I asked as I saw Princess Alina's maid, Mandy, on his bed with both of them sweating profusely. They just finished having sex. It was so glaring and there was no denying it. I couldn't understand why he'd bed the maid, especially since she wasn't from our Pack and was only here because of the Princess. "Greetings, Al–Alpha Davon," she stuttered, surprised to see me, which was normal. "Get out!" I yelled at her, as she quickly jumped out of bed and began to walk away from the room in a hurry. I didn't even care how my brother would feel about me sending his guest away from his room but I didn't care. We had other important things to talk about and I wasn't particularly happy with what I saw. P
Chapter Forty-Four Prince Murray's POV The day of the wedding drew even closer and there was still no sign of Stam, my best friend, whom I had been expecting for quite a while. He was supposed to go handle a few things and the time that I needed those things was fast approaching, yet he was nowhere to be found. As I made my way back to the room from the kitchen, after checking in on the maids and cooks, I recalled what happened the previous day and it sent chills down my spine. I knew that my brother liked Elsa. I knew just how much he liked her, even more than he liked the woman he was about to get married to. It was the reason why I went to Elsa in the first place. "What if he reveals what he saw in my room to her?" I asked myself on getting to my door. "It'll surely ruin everything." I walked into my room and shut the door. Then I walked inside, stopping just in front of the window so that I could look outside as I thought about what to do next. I wondered if it was going
