AXIOS'S POV

I stood before her as she watched my every move like a hawk. I knew it was only a matter of time before she took off, and maybe this time I might have to let her be.

I could sense her fear through the mating pull, and I have no fucking idea of how to calm her ass down.

She stretched her hand forward suddenly, and I thought she was about to shush me away, but she did the unexpected.

Immediately after her hands rested on my furs, I felt a jolt of electricity run through my veins, and the mating pull became so strong that I just couldn't resist her.

I tried hard to stop my wolf from going to her just to comfort her.

Fuck I wanted to comfort her also, but this is it; she has to deal with this herself.

This is the first time she has seen my wolf; I can't possibly hide this from her forever. I hated the idea that I was mated to a human in the first place. But getting to know her—fuck, she is so perfect for me.

It was about time I came clean. I had

She quickly screamed, jerking off the couch."Joking," I guess her imagination is getting the better of her.She heaved a sigh. "How do you mark then?""I would have marked you if you were also a wolf, but since you are human, marking you means turning you into a wolf.""What!""Relax; I will never claim you without your consent.""Ok," she said. I could sense how relieved she was."You should rest," I said to her, and I got up to leave the room. I was hoping she would make up her mind to stay here with me without seeing herself as a prisoner."Axios!""Yeah," I answered immediately."Who are those wolves that attacked us?""I think it's the rogues; I provoked them ages ago when I slaughtered them and took home my mate.""Wait up, I thought I was your mate?" She asked the instant she heard the word, Mate, I shouldn't have said

I barked at him, and he made me sit on the chair."Uhuh" I pointed at the floor with my gun, and he quickly sat on the floor while begging me to let go of his son."Just kill me already, Axios, but let him," I chuckled."Xander, if I want you dead, you will be dead already, and I am still capo to you."I pointed the gun at his bastard, who had been screaming in pain all this time."This will be a warning, Xander," I said, pulling the trigger."Please..." he was cut short with the sound of a gunshot. He rushed to the boy's side, grabbing his lifeless body as it dangled in his arm.I placed back the gun in my trousers and walk

    AXIOS'S POVThis time, the smell of honey and jasmine is insanely intoxicating and unmistakable. I stopped in my tracks, wondering if I was imagining things now. I went out to clear my head, but I came back mad."Fuck," I cursed as I tried walking back into the house."Axios, is that you?" I heard her call out again.I turned around immediately to see her standing at the corner,"Amber!" I called out while blinking my eyes a couple of times, and she was still standing in front of me with a surprised look.I cleared my eyes with the back of my hands, praying she wouldn't disappear in an instant."Are you okay?" she asked, looking at me awkwardly."I thought you were gone.""Gone, where?"I was still doubting if this was reality; could it be that I was dreaming?"Kiara isn't fucking with me, this time around," I thought to myself."I was waiting for you to return."My eyes suddenly lit up in surprise; "she didn't leave after all.""Are you sure you are fe

    I was kidnapped and sold to Axios; I came to the mansion involuntarily; I was forced to remain by his side; but if we are to do this mate thing, it will have to be on my terms.I had thought of leaving on the night Kiara came into the room to break the news to me."There is a car waiting outside the gate to take you as far away from here as possible if you still want to leave Axios."I leaped off the bed, excited that I was finally leaving this hell hole for good, but I couldn't seem to move an inch from where I was standing.My heart was aching, and my thoughts were filled with Axios. I had always thought leaving him would be a piece of cake, but no, it was one of the hardest things I have ever done in my life."Aren't you coming?" Kiara's voice brought me back."Give me a few minutes; I will meet you downstairs," I begged her, planning to scold the hell out of my stupid heart once she left.She shut the door behind her, and I began gently tapping my chest. "Why do you suddenly care

    We both turned towards the voice; he was hot as usual, but not as hot as Axios. "I knew it was your scent," I heard Kiara say as she jumped on him. He quickly grabbed her with open arms, and before Axios could warn them against making out in front of him, their mouths were already fused. "Axel, what the fuck are you doing here?" "Came to see how you are faring in exile, Alpha.""Firstly, I am in exile for a reason, and you are not supposed to be here unless it is super important; secondly, quit calling me that; I am not your alpha anymore; you are Alpha now."He snapped at Axel, who stared at him silently. Kiara got down from Axel's body, and she joined him, in staring at Axios also. "What were you like when you were the alpha?" I asked Axios, trying to ease the tension in the room. Besides, I wanted to know what he truly was like when he was the alpha of his pack. All attention shifted to me. Axios cleared his throat a couple of times. I guess he was looking for the right word t

    "Manny!" Gaius called out as we all stared at the feeble, haggard old woman standing behind us. her white, dirty hair tied backward haphazardly. She was wearing a dirty black cloth and holding a long walking stick. Every single one of them became tensed at the sight of the woman; they didn't move an inch from where they sat, nor did they say a word either. I was speechless as I stared from one person to another, trying to understand what the fuck was going on. "What is she doing out here?" Amy whispered to Gaius"Shhh," he whispered, bringing his hand to his lips, but his eyes were still focused on the old guest. "Who is she?" I asked curiously, and nobody replied as they all stared on as if they were hypnotized. Axel finally looked at me, and without answering me, he got up from his chair, advancing towards the old guest. "Manny, to what do we owe the pleasure?" "Out of the way, Axel, I'm not here to see you," she snapped at Axel. "Exactly my thought, Manny. You made it clear

    I got out of the car, and Axios came out of the house, heading towards us."You took your time, Axel." "Had a little delay at the border with the rogues; ever since you went into exile, they have been relentlessly attacking us.""Did you miss us?" Kiara taunted. "Out of the way, Kiara," he scolded her. "Are you okay?" Axios asked. He got close to me, holding onto me while inspecting my face as if the answer were written boldly on my face. "I'm just tired." "You sure? Did something happen to her?""Manny didn't do anything to you when we all went outside, right?" Kiara asked"What! Manny, you left her all alone with Manny!" "I'm fine. I'm fineee. Just calm down, everybody; she didn't do anything to me.""You are sure?""Yes!" I yelled"What does Manny want with Amber?" "I don't know she lost it ever since the incident; no one takes her visions seriously anymore." "I should go freshen up," I said as I walked away. I could hear Axel say he should get going because he didn't want

    I heard his deep voice from behind. I could sense the surprise written on Alpha's face the minute he heard Axios's voice from behind him. Axios hasn't shifted yet, but his eyes are as pitch black as darkness itself. He slowly stepped out from behind the tree and walked toward us, I can't tell for how long he had been hiding behind the tree but it seems he heard all Alpha said. "Axios!" he said as he turned around to meet him, but Axios punched him in the face, and he staggered back a little, regaining composure before he fell on the floor. "Oooh" I screamed out the instant he hit him in the face and ran to a corner. It wasn't expected as he didn't show any sign of anger. Alpha spat out saliva and blood from his mouth. He touched his lips with his hand and checked them to see if he was still bleeding. "Bloody hell" he blurted out. "Nice welcome" "I'm not one for welcome parties; this is a warning," Axios snapped at him. His eyes are still as dark as you can imagine. "Marking yo

    "I should call a doctor to run some tests on you," he said, stroking my hair gently. "What happened?" I asked him, wondering what I was doing in bed. "You just blacked out, I checked, and you were soundly asleep," he replied, looking at me affectionately.I have no idea what is going on. I blacked out in that room a few days ago after seeing stuff I don't even understand. Now I blacked out again. I was still lost in thought when I heard some sounds coming from down the stairs, then a fuss at the door. "What is that sound?" I asked. "Don't get off the bed; let me see who it is," he hurriedly said before leaving the room. There was something off. Axios house hasn't been this busy ever since I came here. I wonder what is going on outside. "Ouch!" I screamed, grabbing my head. It keeps thrusting hard, it sometimes feels like something is crawling on the skin, and I always feel hot, as if my body were covered in hot coal. Maybe it's just all in my head. "Tada!!" Kiara screamed, hold

    "Ma'am, that's Miss Lily Preston.""Lily?" "The only daughter of late Geoffrey Preston""Is she?""She once had a thing with Capo, but it didn't last long, though she is one of the few that lasted more than a night," Damian continued, but suddenly paused and whispered some inaudible words to himself. Well, I was glad it flowed out of his mouth before he shushed himself up. "Did she now?" I said as I gave him a thorough look. I could tell he was a little anxious, but I didn't give a damn, and I stormed off to the room. I banged the door the very minute I got in, worried that he was in there with some half-naked chick, I should trust Axios, I quickly reminded myself. But how the fuck am I supposed to trust that naked, sneaky bitch?I was pacing the room nonstop while checking the clock every minute. I jerked off the bed each time I heard a door open, wondering if the meeting was over already. My face fell at each false alarm, and I swore at him for staying so long in the study wit

    I opened my eyes to a faintly lit room. My vision was a little blurry, and I tossed from one side of the bed to the other. When my vision became clear, I couldn't quite figure out where I was or why my head was aching. I was still lost in thought when images of me in that weird room flashed before my eyes. I suddenly became apprehensive when I finally remembered that I had fainted in that room. I turned to see a figure sitting on the couch. "I can't possibly still be inside the weird room," I silently asked myself. I looked away, scared as fuck, as I didn't want to make eye contact with whomever it was. "Someone must have found me." I tried convincing myself while looking around the room, scared to my bones. I don't know what I would do if I were still lying in that haunted room. I turned to the side to see a bedside lamp giving off light. "This is the bedside lamp in Axios room," I silently said to myself as I continued looking around the room.There was a rush of cold wind, and

    Tiger might not be a wolf, but he was a beast on the battlefield. He didn't miss any, as he killed every last one of them. Kiara and I kept exchanging glances as he continued his onslaught. Within a few minutes, the ground was littered with dead bodies. "Are you okay, ma'am?" he asked the instant he pulled the car open. Honestly, I feel like hugging him right now. I nodded my head in response, as I couldn't get myself to say a word. "I should get you home, ma'am," he said, stretching his hands to help me get down. I grabbed onto his hands as he led me to the car he came with. I looked back to see Kiara had already gotten out of the car and was standing over one of our attackers. "I guess she had her fair share of shock also," I thought to myself as he pulled open the car. I got into the car, Kiara and the driver entered the car when they were done transferring our stuff into the car, and Tiger drove off. We drove back to the house in silence. I got out of the car the minute it ca

    I was in shock and unable to get off the chair when he was done with his story. I became ashamed of myself for ever thinking he was a monster. I stood up from the chair I had been sitting in all this while and moved close to him. It was a little dark in the room except for the lamp that was giving off light. Looking at the scar on his chest, I could feel my blood boiling, and a tear escaped my eyes. "Please don't cry," Axios said as he cupped my cheeks in his hand. Every shred of fear was swept away as the tears flowed helplessly. It was one of the saddest stories I have ever heard, and for some reason, my heart was in pain. I caressed the scar on his chest as the tears continued flowing. "Is it painful?" I asked him, staring into his eyes. "Not anymore; would you stop crying, please? I can't stand seeing you cry," he whispered. He gathered into his arms and I willingly went to him. * * * * *One week later It has been awfully quiet these few days. I spent almost every sin

    AXIOS'S POVI was shocked to see myself on the ground, with scattered pieces of wood lying on the ground around me. I looked around, and I guess they dropped the coffin on the ground. I was surprised as I saw my Beta, Gaius, and the pack elders staring down at me. "Alpha!" Gaius called out with a hint of shock in his voice. I didn't say a word as I was still confused at seeing them. "They didn't possibly all die, and we got reunited in the afterlife," I murmured to myself in confusion. "Alpha!" Theo, one of the pack elders called out, and I turned to meet his gaze. "What happened to me?" I scowled There was an uproar, and for the first time, I noticed it wasn't just the pack elders, then Gaius and Axel, but the whole room was packed with wolves, with confusion written all over their faces. "You should be dead!" Axel screamed out and moved towards me. He tried touching my chest where I had stabbed myself when I made to touch him also. He jumped

    AXIOS'S POVI had cried my eyes out at the pack clinic, begging Mira to please come back to me. I had waited for more than half of my life to finally meet my mate, and just a few months later, the cold gripping hand of death snatched her away. "Alpha Axios, please take heart," I heard Maxim say from behind me. I quickly jerked up from the floor grabbed him by the shirt and said, "Please do something, Maxim, anything; please, just wake her up, please," "Alpha Axios! " he called out and my hands slipped away and I slumped on the floor. "I'm sorry, but I have done all I could," Maxim explained, but it was all for deaf ears. I was heartbroken and on the verge of going mad with grief. I had always imagined what wolves go through when they lose their fated mate to death, but I never really thought it was this painful. Now I know why it is called the mad grief. Gaius was standing at the corner all this time watching the drama unfold, when he noticed tha

    AXIOS'S POV8 months and two weeks after the coronation, I woke up early in the morning to an unexpected visitor. The counsel of Alphas had been summoned to an impromptu meeting, and I was to leave immediately. Rufus and his rogue wolves had attacked the Red Dawn Pack, one of the ancient packs, killing everyone in their path. We were summoned by the Lycan prince, Reagan, to discuss ways to put an end to Rufus before he destroys more packs. I had plans to visit the human world with Mira that morning when Beta Axel came over to inform me of the visitor. I wanted to send the visitors away, but when they mentioned Prince Reagan, I felt powerless. "Come on, you promised you would take me to the human world today, for some homemade pies, remember?" Mira lamented while sitting on the floor; for some odd reasons, best known to Mira and my unborn babies, she prefers sitting on the floor. Mira practically eats, sleeps, and does every damn thing on the floor; mo

    AXIOS'S POVI hadn't seen a wolf so eager to charge to a fight like Mira; she wasn't scared of anything neither was she scared of being killed. She fights better than most of the male wolves in my pack, honestly from how fragile and pale she looked you wouldn't believe she could even fight, "Are you hurt?""No, I'm fine; I think we got every last one of them," she said, still focused on the dead rogues. Watching her fight like that made me wonder how the fuck did the rogues overpower and kidnap her in the first place. "Alpha!" I heard Gamma Gaius voice from behind us. "Are you okay?" Axel asked, looking from me to Mira. His face changed the instant he understood what had happened. "Are you okay, Luna?" he asked Mira, but a little slower, like he was being cautious, as she didn't want her charging at him. "Yeah, I have never been better," she replied. Breathing heavily, Axel turned to look at me, like he was asking what the fuck happened and why was
