ESMERAY"Alright, dear, come here," she said, embracing me once more. "Your mate needs our help right now before the king kills him."Lovella instructed Unity, their royal feathered horse, to take Leon safely back to their pack, the Blue Rock Pack in the west. It wouldn't be wise to leave him here, especially while Caesar is hell-bent on killing him.Afterward, our attention was drawn to the two beasts ahead of usâmy mate and my father, engaged in a gruesome fight in their wolf forms.'Father, cut it out, please! He didn't mean to invade the kingdom!' I mind-linked my father as Lovella and I ran towards them side by side. The closer we got, the greater the danger of accidentally hitting one another increased.Although Lovella was an alpha herself, I never worried for myself but rather for my mate, who might not survive this.'Excuses, child! Stay away while I rip his throat apart. Do not interfere!' Despite it being a mind-link, my father's words were loud enough to freeze my knees. H
ESMERAYThe moon goddess didn't answer my prayer to bring him back with my kiss. I laid my head on his bare chest now and continued to be drenched in my sorrows until a voice uttered out of nowhere."He is dead and no longer your mate. Now you are free." My father's husky voice fell on my ears, and it turned my sadness into anger."Did I ever tell you I wanted to be free?!!" I snapped and raised my gaze to meet his cruel eyes descending on me. "I never wanted to be free! You killed my mate!" My tears flowed freely down my cheeks as I stood up now, not planning on holding anything back anymore."He invaded my palace, killing my warriors and causing havoc. Death was his inevitable sentence.""Because Leon raped me!" I saw his eyes widen as I revealed. "He was after Leon because he raped me! He wanted to get revenge for what he did to your daughter, for goddess' sake!" My voice came out broken.I saw my father's gaze leave my heartbroken face, down to my dead mate, and then back to me. He
KITANA"Mordax!" I yelled as Mordax was sent flying to the other side of the vast field by the Lycan king.Tears streamed down my face as I mourned my sex mate, Caesar. However, he had never treated me like one during the time I spent with him.Instead, he granted me the freedom to move and do anything I wished, allowing me to be free. Heck, he never even wanted me to touch him all because his heart belonged to someone else. Unlike other Alphas who would rather take advantage of my vulnerability of being a human.Now, he was dead, and I was consoling his mate, Esmeray, as we embraced tightly. Eventually, Esmeray's friend joined us, and tears flowed freely from our eyes.The sound of something heavy hitting the ground grabbed my attention. I raised my teary face from Esmeray's shoulder and turned to gaze behind me. There, I witnessed Mordax somersaulting on the other side of the field, and I lost my breathe that instant."Mordax!" I yelled in fear, releasing my grip on Esmeray and rush
KITANAA hopeful smile appeared on my lips when I opened my eyes and saw the softness in his eyes now. Tears of hope flowed down my cheeks, and I even chuckled softly.His red eyes gazed at my face, filled with affection. He didn't say anything, but his expression spoke volumes. My kiss had indeed calmed him down.I offered a silent thank you to the goddess for that."Kitana..." His voice turned soft as he called my name, and then tears began to roll down his eyes as he looked at me.His expression had shifted to a sad one now."My best friend, Caesar, is gone," Mordax said, his voice breaking as tears rolled down his cheeks while he shook his head."I loved that motherfucker so much! We grew up and trained together for many years," he managed to say through his tears. I held his shoulders and nodded, encouraging him to let his emotions out."I know, I know. But I can't lose you too. I can't lose you both on the same day, Mordax," I sobbed, looking into his blurred red eyes.It was ago
ESMERAY****THREE DAYS LATER***It's been three days since the death of my mate, Caesar.I sat on the edge of my bed, staring out of my wide-opened window, feeling the cold both in my heart and on my skin. The wind was heavy today and occasionally came through the window, blowing my red hair all over my face.Back then, I had kissed Caesar's lifeless body in the fields, hoping somehow he would come back to life with the sparks that flew from our mate bond. But he didn't, and he left me all alone in this world.I felt empty inside. This would be a great time for Miriam to come and console me, obviously, but I was honestly tired of it. Tired of being broken, and broken again. I didn't want to see anyone; I wanted to be left alone.Miriam was stubborn and wouldn't let me "hurt" myself in her own words by being alone, so she left me no choice but to lock her outside my room.Yes, I have been locked inside my room for three days. No food, no water...I haven't looked at my current self in
ESMERAYSeeing her in this state had already started to affect me, and I didn't realize when tears began to well up in my eyes too."I called his parents at the Blue Rock Pack and informed them about the evil act their son committed against you. I swear to the Goddess, I would have gone ahead with the plan I had in mind to report their pack to the werewolves colony. The Blue Rock Pack would be stripped of their dignity, title. They would be blacklisted, banished, and likely die of self-isolation after that." Mother's words carried weight, and through her eyes, I knew she meant every word she said."Mother... there's no need," I managed to speak once more."Of course, it's necessary, my child. They need to be held accountable, and I don't care if we've been allies for years. Leon should have thought about that before harassing my daughter." My mother's words spoke volumes.She rarely gets angry, but when she does, she becomes a fierce Luna, willing to go to any lengths to protect those
ESMERAY"Oh, Goddess! Caesar is alive!" Tears of joy streamed down my cheeks as I cried, my heart overflowing with relief, and I held my hands tightly to my chest.It was as if something dead inside of me had been brought back to life. I was so happy to hear his hoarse voice, the voice that always stirs my body."Oh my Goddess, Caesar, where are you? I must see you right away," I exclaimed with excitement, with a smile on my lips."My ki...""How? How did you come back to life, my alpha?" I interrupted him, my voice trembling. New waves of tears of joy cascaded down my cheeks."My kitten, meet me at the same spot in the woods where we spent our first night together. I'll tell you everything when you get here."I didn't wait for Caesar to finish his statement before rising to my feet. "Okay, my love. I'm coming right away. Don't you dare go anywhere," I pleaded through our mindlink."Haha, don't worry, kitten. I'm not going anywhere," he chuckled. I cut off the mindlink as I stepped out
ESMERAYMy eyes were brimming with tears as I listened to him. It was so emotional that I didn't realize when I unconsciously kissed Caesar in my arms again."Esmeray...relax..." He managed to say between kisses."Shut up," I commanded in my sobbing voice and kissed him until I was satisfied, then finally let go, catching my breath."You feel lighter, my kitten... you've lost weight," Caesar said out of nowhere."It's your fault for dying on me like that." I wiped the tears from the corners of my eyes with the back of my palms.I loosened my legs from around his waist as I got down and stepped back, intending to bring Harmony closer to us. But a firm hand stopped me by grabbing my wrist.I looked up to see Caesar's smirk as he held my wrist."Where are you going, kitten? Who told you I was done with you?""Oh no... I was just going to bring Harmony closer to us," I explained."Forget Harmony." And then he pulled my wrist, making me crash against his chest as his hands wrapped around my
