Miranda’s POV“What did you just say?” I asked him“I said I am his son too” he whispered“Stop the car William, I want to get out,” I said, how could he betray me like this, he was Tomas’ brother“Why do you want to get out Miranda? You know it’s not safe out there and what I meant was that I am his son just as you are his daughter” he stuttered“Don’t lie to me William” I warned“I am not lying to you Miranda,” he said“Fine, I will think about your suggestion then maybe I will agree to go back with you,” I said folding my arms and looking out the window.We were quiet for the rest of the way until we got home, I kept wondering what I would do if William was really Tomas’s younger brother or elder brother. In fact, what would I have done if William was at all related to Tomas? I couldn’t beg
MIRANDA’S POV When I got inside the house Ms. Caroline immediately saw that I wasn’t ok, for someone who hadn’t known me that long she sure did know quite a lot about me already. She was done preparing dinner and was just waiting for me to arrive so that we could eat together, no matter how late I got home Ms. Caroline refused to eat alone. “What’s wrong dear?” she asked as I sat down and I couldn’t even café a smile “It’s nothing you should worry about Ms. Caroline,” I said “It sure doesn’t look like nothing you look upset, what happened today at the shop?” she asked “Nothing I was just having a very emotional conversation with William,” I said with a sigh, I was emotionally exhausted. “So he made you cry? I told him what would happen
TOMAS’S POVI had been getting impatient waiting for William to deliver Miranda into my arms again. It had been a week since my father called him and I was curious and anxious to find out what the holdup was. I couldn’t ask my father if he had spoken to William because he seemed to be angry with me for some reason.I also got the feeling that my father was keeping something from me, after he called William to confront him about his feelings for Miranda he had been acting funny. It was as if William had confirmed my suspicions about him being inlove with Miranda and my father wasn’t sure how to handle it. I thought it was very simple how he was supposed to handle it, he was supposed to strong hand William into giving my mate back to me whether he liked it or not after all he was still the Alpha.I kind
MIRANDA’S POVI couldn’t scream because I was afraid that the whole town would wake up and Tomas would turn and get his morons to join Him while he tore the whole town apart. Tomas had been making a lot of threats about killing everyone here if I kept refusing to give in to his absurd requests. I watched as the lights faded as we got deeper into the forest and I couldn’t shake the fear, but I knew that I had to be brave and put on my strong face. I could never give Tomas the satisfaction of seeing me squirm and tremble before him and I wanted him to see that he no longer had any power over me.“What do you want?” I asked him after he threw me to the ground“I want you to listen to me Miranda, I don’t know what you have been telling William but it has to stop,” he said, wha
Tomas’s POVI was well aware of the damage that I had caused and I knew that Miranda would never trust William again. Whatever chances William thought he had with Miranda were squashed and she would never look at William the same again. She probably thought that he was exactly like me and I couldn’t help but laugh at that thought.William being compared to me had to be the most hilarious thing for me and the most infuriating thing for him, either way I had accomplished more than I had thought I would tonight. My intention was to mark Miranda so that whatever future she might have started to imagine with William faded. But William had come at the wrong time but his presence presented me with the right time to expose his big little secret.My hope was that Miranda never forgave him.MIRANDA’S
MIRANDA’S POVI know I had never really been around many male wolves in my life as an Omega, but William was the first gentleman with royal blood that I had ever met. I couldn’t believe that he didn’t want to have sex with me here out of respect for humans. I don’t think I had ever met a wolf that respected humans as much as he did. It was as if he felt like he was indebted to them, almost like he saw beyond the difference in class between them and him, the same way he didn’t see the difference in class between me and him.He felt and acted so insulted when I made the comment about humans being beneath him, I must say that was what I found the most attractive about William. He was so gentle and kind and he wasn’t faking it. He wasn’t faking being nice because he was trying to be liked by anyone, he was genuinely a nice guy and I appreciated having him in my life.Tomas was the exact opposite of that; I didn’t understand the kind of wolf Tomas was. He was nothing like his father the ki
Miranda’s POVThe following day came a little faster than I wished it would. I spent yet another night tossing and turning wondering what the future held for me. I woke up tired and the bags under my eyes deceived no one. When I woke up, I considered calling William and telling him that I had changed my mind but I knew that would mean I was a coward and I was doing what only cowards did best.I dragged myself out of bed and started getting ready and this would be my last peaceful bath as Miranda the human. The next bath that I was going to take I was either going to take it as Miranda the forced Luna or Miranda who was William’s mate. I hated the fact that my future was not in my hands and I hated the fact that someone else had the power to decide what was to happen to me even more.I wished my parents were
TOMAS'S POVI was in high spirits today, according to my father Miranda was on her way back home with William. I couldn't wait to see her feet touch down in her own homeland, I couldn't wait for my father to officially crown me the Alpha. I was so excited and everyone in the palace could see it. I didn't care what happened with William after today because after delivering Miranda to me, his job would be done and I would have no need for him.I got Sandra to prepare the room that Miranda had previously stayed in so that when she arrived with William she would find it ready. I knew that my father would never allow her to stay in the same room with me yet. William had lost sight of his mission and made a mess of everything by allowing himself to fall in love with her and then challenging me for her love. But I knew that I
ELIZABETH'S POV“Did you really have to be that rude Liam?” I asked“Lizzy sometimes you tend to be too kind and too trusting” he snapped and he was right but I really believed that Ashley was being genuine I could see the grief and the pain in her eyes. Her father might have been a bad influence in her life but she was clearly fond of him and she loved him very much.“I know that but I think we should have been nicer to her,” I said“if we had been even a little nicer to her she would have asked us if we could let her sleep since it was already dark and she would have asked if it was ok if she slept with us in the same room and in the middle,” he said and I laughed, now he was just exaggerating“Just stop Liam,” I said through my laughs and he joined me“I am serious they say once bitten twice shy and trust me I have been bitten by Ashley so I am not allowing her to fool me so easily this time, so you need to stop trusting people that you shouldn’t trust and stop being so easily fool
ELIZABETH’S POVThe following day I woke up feeling very tired and I was feeling like I had spent the night running a marathon. Liam told me that I had passed out right after drinking the wolfsbane and that he had to carry me home after that. I was glad that we were done with the crowning part of the rituals and now the next thing would be for Liam to drink the wolfsbane.I didn’t understand why Liam had to do that because he was already part of the pack and therefore he had no former tied to break and I also felt like there was no need for him to prove his loyalty to the pack because they already knew him. He explained to me that he wouldn’t be swearing his loyalty to the pack only but also to me. and he said that the ritual was going to be important in proving that his intentions for the pack were not selfish and we're nothing like what his father had done.When I woke up I had to attend to Ryan who had grown a lot in the past couple of days and he was now crawling, I just couldn’t
ELIZABETH'S POVThere was a note that was left on a rock and Liam recognized the handwriting as his father’s, the message on the note was that he would wait for us in the mansion since we wanted to be pack leaders and live in the mansion so badly.Liam, Anthony, and I immediately turned and started running to the mansion immediately, none of us cared that our clothes were ripped off as we turned. Liam and I just wanted our baby back and Anthony was just after his mate. At this point, we were all aware that Liam’s father was a danger even to his own children and he had to be stopped from causing any more harm to anyone else.We raced to the mention afraid that we could be too late and Liam’s father could have done something to Anna and the baby. The thought of him hurting my baby just made me angry and made my feet very much lighter. I got to the mansion first and I immediately spotted Liam’s father in the garden with the baby in his arms and Anna was tied
Liam's POVAfter dinner, we all went to our separate rooms and I was very happy to finally have Liam all to myself. There was a lot I wanted to discuss with him and most of it involved his father and I couldn’t hold out any longer.“Baby, are you ok?” I asked“Yes why?” he asked as he put on his pajamas“I mean I just killed your father and I would understand if you need a little time to mourn his death,” I said sitting on the huge king-sized bed.“Lizzy are you feeling bad about what happened?” he asked and I wasn’t sure how to respond to that question, of course, I felt guilty about killing his dad despite his crimes. If I felt nothing after killing him that would mean that I was exactly like him.“a little bit, I mean your father had it coming that’s no doubt but that doesn’t make me feel any better about the fact that I killed him and the impact of what his death did to you and I wouldn’t blame you if you felt some type of way about the way
LIAM’S POVWe stayed up the whole night listening to Denis as he filled us in on the plans that my father had for us. We had to keep in mind that they probably didn’t tell him everything out of fear that he would come and give that information back to us. What I didn’t understand until now was why Anthony had decided to join us and not run his small pack himself, I mean he was next in line to be Alpha after all. Their presence here with us made me very uncomfortable but I also had to admit that we needed them, but there was no way that I was going to agree with Lizzy if she decided to let them stay here for good.After Denis told us everything we needed to know we had to change the plan of our plans because they already knew our plan of attack. Lizzy was right when she said that she would heal herself and be strong enough to fight, as I watched her take the lead in the plans I could see that she was a natural-born leader and that was probably the reason why she cou
LIAM’S POVI woke up in the middle of the night to find the bed empty on Lizzy’s side. I knew that she had been restless because I allowed the wolves from the diamond pack to stay with us but I had to think on my feet and it was best that we had them with us rather than with my father. They probably chose to come to us because they were impressed that Lizzy had killed their Alpha. Even after I had accepted their request to join us, I was still worried about the true intentions of their new Alpha, Anthony had been known to idolize his father and I knew that he probably wanted to seek revenge against us.The only thing I could do now was to make sure I keep an eye on them and make sure they never got up to any good or even tried to betray us, as hard as that was going to prove to be.I got out of bed and started searching for Sabina around the house and she was not there, I even went to Anna’s room and she wasn’t there. I thought maybe she was in her mother’s room as she n
Elizabeth's Pov The following day Liam, Anna, and I woke up a little late because we were all tired from the events of the previous day. We were not going to be getting any form of rest for the next coming days because of all the training that we had to do. Liam woke up and went to the mansion to meet with the elders and his father because he had to find out when they planned for this challenge to take place.Anna and I prepared the backyard for all the wolves that were going to come for the training. It was a pure blessing that my mother had chosen a corner house with the biggest backyard that was big enough to accommodate a lot of wolves. I still couldn’t believe that all those wolves had actually chosen my side and I didn’t even know most of them. But I assumed that they chose me because they already knew and trusted Liam and they were like his followers.After we were done preparing the grounds for training Liam returned from the meeting and he seemed like he h
LIAM'S POVI had known from the day that I found out that Lizzy was the rightful heir to the throne and the rightful Alpha queen that there were things that she would have to do and I wouldn’t be a part of them. I knew that she was more powerful than I was and that all the Alpha duties that I had been training for my whole life would be taken over by her. But right now I felt like a wimp and I found myself struggling to find my place in the entire kingdom.Don’t get me wrong I wanted the best for Lizzy and I felt insulted when she suggested that I was power-hungry and motivated by my hunger for power. For her to say that was like her saying that I was like my father and that I would easily kill and take someone’s life simply because I wanted to be in charge of the pack. But imagine growing up and being prepared for one thing only to grow and realize that that thing you were being trained for was never yours, to begin with, having Lizzy as my mate made it easie
LIAM’S POVI wasn’t in full support of Lizzy tying our lives to that of the pack but I had to trust that she had a plan. I knew she was probably right when she said that the elders were up to no good. There was an upside to all this and the upside was that if they had any intentions of purposely placing her life in danger along with mine, she had successfully destroyed that plan.When we got home, Lizzy and I were both so tired that we just headed straight for bed and fell asleep immediately. We were supposed to catch the other pack by surprise and attack them before they attacked us. The plan was that we would meet at around three in the morning and then we would all run to the neighboring pack. The elders said that they had gotten a letter that we would be attacked anytime during that day. My main concern was that the pack would be attacked when we were gone and there would be no one left to defend those that were going to be left behind. Beta John told me that a few
