Azlynn’s P.O.V.

Shoot!

Staring down at me with his cold eyes, King Demrid standing beside Xavion sucked all the air from my lungs. The golden rings around his hazel orbs hinted at his wolf’s power over his mind.

After kicking him in his nuts, I ran away, leaving that matter for Howard. My brother could fight with a Godzilla for me. But now, he was nowhere to be found, and a hell pissed King was at my door. I was stuck in a very dangerous situation.

Utterly panicked, I slid my hand to my pocket for the phone, but Demrid sensed my next move. He spoke coldly.

“Prince Howard got an important call from work. He left for the office.”

Damn it!

My heart raced at a fucking thousand beats per second as I gulped hard, trying to appear nonchalant.

“I don’t need Prince Howard to attend to my guests. You …”

“Demrid Davis?

How are you doing, buddy?”

Xavion cut me off mid-sentence, expressing his shock.

“It’s been long. I thought you forgot to step out in public.”

    Azlynn’s P.O.V.“You decided what?”For a brief moment, I kept staring at Demrid’s face, watching for his toothy smile with ‘Gotcha. It was a joke’. No man in his right mind could ever suggest anything like that. However, it remained a wish as he stared back at me, waiting for my response seriously. I struggled hard to wrap my head around this shocker and replied to him. “Look, I am a single lady, living with Hayley and my friend here. How can you adjust to this modest apartment with us, Demrid? You are a King. It will be difficult for you.”Feeling desperate, I listed all the reasons that came to my mind, trying to scare him away. But Demrid wasn’t shaken at all. He remained as cool as a cucumber.“I don’t mind if your flat is small or uncomfortable. It’s spacious enough to squeeze in two more people.The only thing matters how Hayley feels about you, Ann. So, I am willing to do anything for her.”He pointed at his luggage and spoke casually.“Beta Rupert will bring his

    Azlynn’s P.O.V.Not again!Xavion didn’t miss this golden chance to poke his nose in our lives and invited me through Hayley, ruining my mood. He had planned a picnic to enjoy his one-day break between his matches. I was familiar with his tricks, so this wasn’t a new thing for me. However, Demrid was pretty stumped at this revelation, he questioned.“Who is this savior uncle, my princess?”Hayley’s tiny hand flew to her mouth as she exhaled in surprise. “You don’t know about my savior uncle, daddy?” She sat beside him and narrated the story of our abduction, painting Xavion as Captain America. “We were trapped in a rundown building and Uncle Xavion came there all of a sudden. He punched all the bad guys, daddy.His black wolf is majestic!”The horizontal lines of worry deepened on Demrid’s forehead as he finally caught the gist of the issue. Hayley’s story rang a bell.“You were kidnapped on Christmas Eve, my princess? Holy crap!”Demrid was the one who gave Xavion a f

    Azlynn’s P.O.V.The tension crackled in the room as Xavion’s voice sliced through the air, he accused Demrid for some unknown crime. “You can be a King here, but your status can’t hide your vile intentions. It’s not easy to fool me …”He spoke out of spite, deliberately using hurtful words for a father. Demrid was feeling lost on this one. Honestly speaking, I got my brain in a twist, unable to process this shock of Xavion’s sudden attack. So, I couldn’t keep my mouth shut and cut him off sharply.“Watch your tongue, Mr. Waller. Don’t forget that you are standing in my apartment!”My warning was meant to get him back off, but Xavion reacted violently. He lunged forward and grabbed my shoulders firmly. “You need to remember that it’s your home, not a guest house or a motel where stranger men can come or go. Tell me, Ann!How can you live with him under the same roof? Where are your boundaries?”He called our living set up wrong, lecturing me about the virtue of a woman. L

    Azlynn’s P.O.V.“This is ridiculous!”As soon as the high tide of anger died down, Demrid considered himself a stupid to sign a legal contract on a whim. He tried to snatch the file from me.“Ann, that was an angry decision. My wolf didn’t let me think straight. Give that file to me!”“Nope! Not at all!”I couldn’t give up the golden opportunity of striking a deal with the devil. There was no chance in the frozen hell that I would allow him to ruin my plans. As he moved forward to grab the file, I dodged his hands and ran away, jumping on the dining table in a split second.I raised my arm in the air to keep the file safe. “Demrid, you have promised to take part in this football tournament. There’s no going back now!”“Ann, this is barbaric!”Demrid hopped to get a hold of the file, trusting his height, but I swiftly stepped away and stuck out my tongue playfully. He cried out.“Why don’t you understand my point, Ann? It’s not that my wolf has to play on the ground against

    Azlynn’s P.O.V.“I am not a coward!”Although I was shaken up by Demrid’s growl, that prompt response alerted me, giving away the identity of a third person in our conversation. I was aghast to see Xavion stepping out of his hideout.Standing behind the pillar of the adjacent apartment’s balcony, he was spying on us. Even after being caught red-handed, he appeared nonchalant and raised his coffee mug.“I am enjoying this beautiful sunset at my new apartment. Why are you getting all worked up, Demrid?”Bloody hell!It turned out that Xavion purchased the flat as he suggested to Demrid, taking his mission to annoy me to the next level. The king was super ticked to see him as well.“You are such a brazen man, Xavion. Ann has threatened you with a restraining order, but still, you are stalking her.It’s immoral. You must respect her wishes.”Demrid’s upright speech left no impact on Xavion, he scratched his ear and spoke.“Here you are mistaken, Demrid. I am not here for Ann, bu

    Azlynn’s P.O.V. “Forty-five million dollars?” A wave of astonishment ran across the room as the outburst of the startled gasps put a stamp on wild guess, meeting my expectations. When Mr. Julius decided to be the pain in my ass, I confronted him about his under-the-table dealings. It was proved now that he didn’t get the sponsors’ approval before spending this hefty amount as Mr. Maverick questioned sharply. “How can you withdraw forty-five million dollars without even consulting us, Mr. Julius? We trusted you with all the investments. Is that how you repay our favors?” Mr. Julius, who was all smiles until now, became dead serious. His face took a haunted look as he stuttered in response. “W-What are you talking about, Mr. Maverick? I am working fingers to the bones every day to promote football, searching for talented players to keep this sport alive. You are well aware how ice hockey is trending among the youngsters nowadays.” He counted his contributions to the foo

    Azlynn’s P O.V.“What were you saying? Demrid will win with a three points lead? I highly doubt that he will manage to lose respectfully, Miss Ann!”Mr. Julius kept mocking me heartlessly, but my world got stuck at the mention of the bet. My heart sank to realize. “Xavion had told him about our private meet-up!”It was pretty obvious that he would share every news with his organizer buddy, but a part of me was in shock, feeling betrayed by his actions. Xavion couldn’t keep his mouth shut and shamelessly broadcasted the story of my stupidity. That was so typical of a vengeful Alpha like him.Taking a deep breath, I clutched my bag and cursed myself.“What were you even expecting, Ann? Why would Xavion consider your honor after everything? Indeed, you are an idiot!”Composing myself, I tried to stay focused as Mr. Julius took out his cell phone and showed me the trending topics on social media. He said,“See, Xavion is leading the trends just like the game, Miss Ann.His name

    Xavion’s P.O.V.“Mr. Waller, you should call your mate. It’s getting out of our hands.”Withering in pain, all I could hear were the doctors’ stupid excuses for no treatment. Those high-class bastards were unable to treat a simple headache for so long. I grabbed my head with both hands and yelled, shooing them away. “Give me another dosage of morphine and get the hell out of my room.I will be fine after some rest.”Five years, and still, I had to remind them of the protocol. It was clear evidence of the doctor’s incompetence. I lost it when he said that.“We have maxed out morphine injections. You can’t take any painkillers for the next twelve hours, Mr. Waller.”“Fuck off!”Rubbing my temples, I snarled at those sorry excuses of the medical professionals and ordered Beta Alvaro. “Call the health department. I want their licenses revoked. They don’t deserve to be called doctors.”My old headache was exploding in my head, hurting my wolf as well. I couldn’t understand wh

Xavion was an Alpha wolf, blessed with an efficient healing system. I just saw his forehead’s wound healing at a rapid speed. Then why the hell wasn’t he recovering from his shoulder injury? It wasn’t that I had cut off the link between us.Xavion lost his footing and collapsed, hardly maintaining his balance. I quickly gave him support as he chuckled meekly.“I am an unfortunate Alpha, whose mate is more interested in his dad. My pain is nothing for her.”Goddess!Taking advantage of my worry, Xavion tried to guilt-trip me. I smacked his other shoulder and scolded him.“Stop spewing out nonsense, Xavion. Answer my damn questions!”“I-I was …”Xavion struggled to speak, but broke into a fit of cough, coughing uncontrollably. My heart dropped to my stomach as he spat blood and breathed in sharply. “Being a werewolf Alph

    Azlynn’s P.O.V.The ferocious roar sprinted my heart out at a fucking thousand beats per seconds, chilling me to the bone. The embarrassment of being caught red-handed knotted my stomach as I turned ever so slowly. Scowling fiercely, Xavion was leaning against the door frame, throwing daggers at me with his eyes. I was at a loss for words when he growled.“It’s been less than twenty-four hours since I left the pack. And here you are, poking your nose in others’ matters. Why can’t you just stay still and stop causing problems for a while?”Xavion went on a rant about how I was an impatient soul, but my stupefied gaze was fixated on his bloodied face. The stench of the blood in the air put Bella on edge as she spoke.“Oh no, Ann. Mate is bleeding. He is injured!”The stabbing pain in my left shoulder informed me about Xavion’s wound as the mate-bond picked up its services, sharing my life source with him. I inhaled deeply and comforted my anxious wolf. “Xavion isn’t drenched

    Azlynn’s P.O.V.A part of my soul had trusted Sabrina completely. I hoped for a positive response. My sanity was dependent on her statement. She was a part of the royal family, so her confirmation would definitely ease my mind. My expectant gaze was fixed on Sabrina’s face, which had lost all its colors after my query. She took a moment to compose herself and sighed.“I knew that one day, you would ask me this question. But what to do?Xavion rarely listens to me!”Sabrina complained about her perfect son, I was all ears to find out more. She seemed troubled while saying.“My mate had sworn to take King Vindel’s life. Dashon issued the orders of his murder. There is a file in the record room with his imperial stamp regarding this decree.”She told me about the official meetings held to plan my dad’s murder, discussing it as a national problem. Sabrina sounded apologetic as she said.“As an omega, I didn’t have a say in the executive matters. Dashon isn’t a person who will e

    Azlynn’s P.O.V.Valerie jerked Laura’s meek figure forcefully, ignoring her pitiful cries. Her innocent pleading cut through my heart as she begged for forgiveness.“I-I didn’t mean to bump into you, Miss. I am so sorry!”However, Valerie wasn’t satisfied. She rejected Laura’s apology and bared her claws at her. “Servants like you don’t deserve to live, mutt. I will kill you …”“Enough!!!”Unable to keep calm, I hollered in fury. “Don’t you ever dare to touch my people, Valerie!”My threat shifted up Valerie’s attention, so Alicia moved ahead and rescued weeping Laura. Her swollen cheek drove me crazy as I charged at Valerie. “How can you be even so heartless to hit a child like this, Valerie? Laura isn’t a maid to whom you can punish as you see fit.”Keeping my anger in check, I tried to knock some sense into Valerie’s dense head. But it turned out that there was only garbage instead of brain in her skull, as she scoffed off defiantly.“These mutts are born to serve the

    Azlynn’s P.O.V.My grip on the towel tightened as I glared at that flagrant beauty in front of me, lying on the bed. Valerie’s daring to barge into my personal space didn’t sit well with my sleep-deprived self. She flicked her hair and said, “You know, this is the same bed where we made love after a magnificent mating ceremony, Azlynn. Xavion invited all the Alphas of the prestigious families to witness our union.”Well, there was no need to inform me, as I had watched that function live to conclude my relationship with Xavion. A part of me hoped he would come for me even after the breakup. However, the massive gathering following all the traditions was arranged in the Lake city, celebrating the union of a football star and the Alpha heir of Atkins family. Their couple was worshiped like a blessing of the Moon Goddess. My mouth turned sour as Valerie flexed her relationship, delivering a free lecture on their passionate s*x life. I felt sick to my stomach as she got up and t

    Azlynn’s P.O.V.I held my breath as his honey brown eyes burned into mine, igniting the fire deep within me. Xavion’s mouth crashed against mine like he had been holding back for too long. Like, he was fighting with his instincts with every breath and finally gave up, claiming his right over me. The warmth of his lips coursed pleasant sparks throughout my body as he kissed me passionately.It wasn’t a gentle, loving kiss we shared in the past, but pure fire, a boundless passion, whose storm threatened to blow up my world with its intensity, rendering me motionless. I should have stepped back or at least pushed him away, but instead, I melted into him, tasting the novelty of his lips. There was an invisible force holding me in its tight grip. Xavion released my head and wrapped his arm around my waist, pulling my flesh against his hard muscles. His vibrating chest hinted at his effort to stay human. A belated gasp parted my lips, inviting him, begging him for more. My hazy br

His queries threatened the safety of my deep secrets. “We both were adults, past the age of finding a mate. You were hiding your identity, but your wolf was with you, Azlynn. You must have smelled the bond that time. I didn’t have a mating band back. Then why?”This sudden quizzing game was trouble for me and at that crucial moment, witch Alicia left me alone. She grabbed her grimoire and chickened out of the room. “Notify me when Valerie is here. I will start the preparations now.”Xavion nodded to acknowledge her manners as she gave us privacy. But I was at a loss for words. My heart was thundering against my ribcage frantically. Amidst my real life crisis, I wasn’t able to adjust to the bond and now, Xavion was suddenly curious about the past. His expectant gaze was fixed on my face, waiting for my response. “All this could be avoided if you just informed me about the bond, Azly

    Azlynn’s P.O.V.After a fruitless argument with Xavion, my top priority was to seek magical assistance. Finding a method to reduce the attraction of mate-bond was my only option. My fated headache knew that he had an upper hand in the battle. He would definitely take the advantage of my weakness to force the bond on me.Howard had sent Laura as per requested, so I spent my day with her. That little girl reminded me of my own daughter, Hayley. The apple of my eyes was far away from me. I couldn’t contact her because of my broken cell phone. And she was with Demrid, living in the south kingdom. I wondered whether she missed me or not. Witch Alicia was busy meeting with other castle witches, so she came to me after dinner. She was deeply impressed to see the masters of magic.“Little princess, the north royals have established a separate department for witchcraft.

    Xavion’s P.O.V.Zion purred happily as Azlynn didn’t put up a fight and let us kiss her, even it was a harmless peck on her forehead. Then she raised her head, staring dead into my eyes.“I am feeling tired. Good night!”This was her indirect method of saying fuck off to end the argument, disagreeing with my perspective. Azlynn wasn’t a quarrelsome person to begin with. She had always avoided confrontation, looking for a middle ground for peace.It wasn’t in her nature to be loud with her demands, but her signature trait was being as stubborn as a mule. When we were dating, I often wondered how an omega could be so rigid. But now, her royal status had justified her ability to be persistent. I was well aware that she would never sit still until getting what she wanted. Though the fight was over for tonight, it was just a beginning in reality. Azlynn would retaliate with better weapons tomorrow for sure!Although she left with Beta Alvaro, I stood there frozen, pondering over the
