Orphaned at birth, Lena Warrick spent twenty years locked away in a secluded academy, training to be a warrior. Her heart longed to be free, to escape far away from the village of Lucania! A strange force beckoned her, making her restless to escape! Maybe it was an impossible dream! She was the chosen Luna for Ajax, the future Alpha of the Luceres Pack. His father, Alpha Atticus, promised to divulge her identity only if she gave in. There was no other way than to surrender. However, on the eve of the Luna Ceremony, their pack was attacked by the most powerful group of warriors led by their indomitable Alpha, Zephyrus. In a matter of minutes, he overpowered them, leaving her at his mercy as a war prisoner. After twenty years, Zephyrus Averoff returned to his village, Lucania, to avenge the death of his family and pack at the hands of the ruthless Alpha Atticus. Soon he wiped out the enemy and reclaimed his land, his pack. What about the prisoner he had captured whom his wolf, Zeus, already acknowledged as his mate? To what extent will Lena go to know her true identity? Why couldn’t she accept the mate bond between them? What would Zephyrus do when the dark secrets of her past are out? Would he accept the enemy, reject her, or claim her as his mate? The first book of the Overpowered Series, this story can be read as a standalone book.
View MoreLena’s POV Today was the greatest day of my life when I would swear to dedicate my life to my pack. It was the Luna Ceremony today. It’s the day I would be officially welcomed into the pack and given the honor of becoming their Luna.More than me, I could feel Zephyrus’ excitement radiating out of his body in everything he did! He had been wanting this for a long time.Clad in a white, embellished gown paired with a delicate white floral clutch in my hair, I felt like a queen. I was Alpha Zephyrus’ queen!My mom and Hazel had helped me get ready for my big day, escorting me here to the pack house. I was glad of their presence in my life! Now, I had everything I had wished for and more. I had a family, a dream I could fulfill, but mostly, I had a loving mate to spend my life with. I gazed at my mate as he stood outside with Stavros, watching the pack members gather in front of the altar for the event. The moon was at its brightest as if the Goddess was blessing me from up above.A sat
Zephyrus’ POV I left the spy girl under Alexandrios’ care and headed to the prison to wrap up the unfinished work I had there. I had to reach the root of this. How could they house the underage female spy in the male prison? I called Stavros and asked him to reach the place immediately. He had some explanation to do tonight. I stormed into the prison complex in a state of fury. The guards trembled at the sight of me, having never expected me to return! Now in Lena’s absence, I could rip their hearts out for what they did to an underage girl. “Call all the guards here. Where’s Brutus? Call him right now!” I paced the floor of the prison office waiting for Brutus, our old superintendent, who had been here since my father’s time. “Brutus hasn’t reported for almost a month, Alpha.” Stavros arrived with an agitated look on his face. “What’s up, now? Did the spy open her mouth yet?” “No. She’s not in a condition to open her mouth.” Stavros blinked and focused his attention on me. I f
Lena’s POVA Week Later: The last two days had been a roller-coaster journey for me and Zephyrus. After spending three days at the resort, a call from Stavros disrupted our peace of mind. Those three days were the best ones in my life. Zephyrus and I enjoyed every attraction in and around Yellowknife during the daytime, while on the nights we mated like there was no tomorrow. However, we were brought out of our mating haze with a jolt. Stavros and Homer had captured a female spy trespassing on the southern boundaries of Lucania. Although her identity was still a mystery to all, they suspected her to be Felixe’s spy! We had to return home, and ever since, Zephyrus had been extremely busy trying to find out the threats looming over our heads. With my Luna Ceremony scheduled two days later, I had been busy too! “Lena, will you talk to the spy? See if you can make her spill the details of her mission!” I shut my laptop and turned my attention to my mate. I had been busy with the regi
Lena’s POV The ice-cream did wonders to my body. Since the time I was at the ice skating rink, I started feeling an intense heat accumulate in the pit of my stomach. It caused a burning sensation between my legs, making me all worked up. I was in Zephyrus’ arms then and the heat build-up made me restless. Now I felt a little better after enjoying the two ice creams. He held me close as we sped towards Point Lake Resort and Spa and the momentary relief I was feeling subsided. His nearness, his warmth again, brought the burning heat back into my body! Was this normal? Although twenty, I had never experienced this in my life! Maybe I was going into heat like all the female wolves did! Zephyrus inhaled sharply and tightened his hold on me. Did he sense it? “Are you alright?” I could feel his sharp intake of breath as he leaned in to nuzzle his face into my neck. “Yes.” It was a shaky whisper as weird sensations rocked my body. I just couldn’t restrain the urge to break into my wolf
Lena’s POVHazel bundled everyone out before Zephyrus’ return. It puzzled me since I hadn’t informed her about our date tonight. Maybe Zephyrus had. After all, she was closer to him than to me. With no time to spare, I got ready in a black knitted dress, pairing it with a matching jacket, stockings, and boots. These were the clothes Hazel had got for me.At first glance, I thought they were a waste of time, but now I was thankful to find something to wear for the occasion. I never possessed such fancy clothes in my twenty years of life, surviving on bare essentials only, but tonight was different. Tonight I wanted to look my best. I wanted to dress up for my mate for the first time in my life. I wished I had some money to buy some clothes for myself and my mom. Maybe I would get a job somewhere before starting my dream venture. It would help me invest too. The front door clicked open, and it brought me out of my thoughts. I heard footsteps approach the bedroom, and my heart skipped
Lena’s POVIt was morning already, but I was too sore to get up. I could hear Zephyrus move around outside, but I couldn’t join him. After much effort, I somehow limped towards the washroom to freshen up. Despite the pain, I felt sated, and euphoric, as if floating on cloud nine. The bedroom door opened and Zephyrus entered carrying a breakfast tray laden with enough food to feed a battalion. “Why did you make so much?” I chuckled as he set the tray down on the coffee table overlooking the deck. When he pushed the curtains aside, the view took my breath away. I had no idea there was a lake in his backyard. The frozen lake shone under the pale sunlight “You need to eat to get back your strength, Lena. After what you’ve been through, you need it more than I do.” He held my hand and led me to the sit-out. “Mmm, smells delicious! I could get used to this every morning!” He smiled, and we sat down to tuck into the delicious eggs Benedict made to perfection. The steak burrito and berry
Lena’s POVThe look in his eyes made my heart skip a beat. He carried me to the bedroom, not once taking his eyes off me. My body throbbed with need, imagining what we were about to do. I could drown in him forever without a connection with the outside world! I felt intoxicated, addicted to my mate! He sat down with me straddled on his lap. His lips immediately attacked my neck, sucking on the mark, and I arch my neck to give him better access. His mouth was driving me crazy. The mark worked like an erogenous zone that always triggered a burning need in me. “What do you want, Lenn? Do you want to ride me or eat me? Or do you want me to do the honor?” I grinned at his choices because I wanted them all. How can you choose between oxygen and water when you needed both? “All of them. I want to start with eating you, but you have to close your eyes.” He chuckled at my response. “Nope. I want to see you all the time.” Blushing at his fiery, unwavering gaze pinned on me, I eased off him
Zephyrus’ POVI watched my mate sleep with a soft and blissful smile on her face. It took my breath away to know she was at peace with her life now. I was glad I could help her reunite with aunt Syble. It made me feel relaxed. I know she wouldn’t leave me now. Despite the exhaustion, I couldn’t take my eyes off her. She’s beautiful! My little Lena. Despite the age difference between us, we connected with one another so well. I had never expected I could connect to a stranger so well! My eyes were drawn to her creamy complexion that radiated a glow all around the bedroom. This time, it was the mark I gave her that glowed the most. It stared at it, as if under a hypnosis, watching her soft, pale locks brush against it. Although I had expressed my wish to make love to her again, I couldn’t wait a second more. My c*ck itched to be inside her again, but maybe she’d be sore. Maybe she needed a little rest. These thoughts made me sigh and give her a little time to recover. My c*ck twitche
Lena’s POVHe carried me to the bed, laying me down gently. Glancing down at my exposed body, a low and possessive growl escaped his lips, making me shiver. He eased onto the bed, slowly, while holding my gaze. As he hovered over me, his legs pinned me to the bed, yet his unwavering gaze seemed to watch my reaction minutely. “Show me how much you missed me!” I smiled, knowing how to please him. As we lay heart to heart, skin to skin, I surrendered my soul to him forever. He dipped his head to kiss the mark he gave me. The swirl of his wet tongue against it, the warmth seeping through me, was enough to turn me on. I could feel his erection grinding into me and I dug my nails into his shoulders while my hips moved of their own accord to meet his thrusts. With a possessive growl, he moved downward, trailing his mouth from my neck down my chest to latch onto my left breast. With his thumb teasing the other one, I could feel my arousal growing to new heights. My breathing was shaky. I
I gazed all around me from my vantage point atop the rugged peaks of Mount Astral. The sun was setting, casting a dull glow all around the bare trees and snow-capped mountains beyond. I sucked in a deep breath as I moved farther. Snow crunched beneath my feet as I continued my inspection. I didn’t know what I was looking for. Maybe for invisible foes! It was my duty as the future Luna of the Luceres Pack. Through a gap in the trees, I could see our pack members huddled around a bonfire on the premises of the sprawling clubhouse. “Lena, what do you see?” The voice of Alpha Atticus brought my attention back to him. “Nothing unusual, Alpha.” He looked grim, his instincts had never betrayed him. However, with his old age, and poor eyesight, I knew he depended on my instincts solely. The knowledge didn’t give me any satisfaction. I wanted to be free! I have always felt a powerful urge to escape this life and go somewhere far away! A strange force beckoned me all the time, urging me to ...
