Author's POVIt was seven o'clock in the evening. Dorothy waited anxiously for Xevia's arrival. She had promised to be home soon, but two hours later she had not shown up. Xander, who was suffering from loss of consciousness and could only remember certain things, could in fact remember Xevia well. He ordered Clayton to call and ask Xevia to come home. However, the old man didn't have the heart to leave his dearly young master in the hospital alone. So it was Dorothy who went home and waited for the woman's arrival. Dorothy was almost asleep when the front doorbell rang. She had deliberately locked the door because she was afraid of another break-in. Just like what happened some time ago. The lanky old woman limped up from the sofa and rushed to check who had rung the doorbell. "You're finally home..." Dorothy murmured in relief, and quickly opened the door for Alice. The womanl looked a little pale. Her eyes looked haggard."Oh my God, honey. You're finally home too, are you si
Author's POVXevia didn't know where Alarick was taking her and her baby. But she trusted the man she loved completely. Trusting him like the moon trusts that the night is only for him. And like the clouds that believe the rain will come.***"It's been three days. And he did not return here? I'm scared to be in this place alone," Xevia whined as she scrunched up her face. This was the fifth time she had called Alarick iam, whining for him to come soon. Yes. Alarick had left her alone in the lakeside house. It turned out he was just dropping her off and heading back to the city because he had work to do. Alarick's promise to take her to church and tie the knot had not been realized. Until three days later, Alarick had not returned to the house by the lake. There was no transportation in that remote place, so Xevia couldn't go anywhere but eat and sleep.In the past few days, she has also felt sick and nauseous all over. She attributed it to her body's reaction to the cold weather i

Working at the shelter in Izlav city, he couldn't just disappear if he didn't want to be suspected. However, the man now returned every day to his lakeside home. To take care of Xevia and bring her food, while during his absence he would lock her in her room.Xevia's white skin had paled, and her body was thinner than ever. The girl looked heartbreaking.Her belly, which contained a fetus, began to grow slightly even though she was only a few weeks pregnant.Only the sound of birds chirping could signal the arrival of morning and evening.Now that evening is approaching, the sound of swallows returning to their home at the end of the hill is circling above the roof of the house.It was a sign that it wouldn't be long before Alarick would arrive and bring her food. He
Author's POVArcher continues to persuade Xander to find Xevia's whereabouts. However, his selfishness and pain exceeded the limit. So for a while he chose to stay in place without movement even though his heart was in turmoil."Come on bro, are you going to let your baby be taken away by that rancid bastard?" Archer tightened his fist on the table.Meanwhile, Xander was like a fool who continued to brood and remain silent."Are you going to-""Will you shut up, Arch!" Xander snapped and snapped at him.Instantly Archer fell silent in shock at his brother's yelling."I'm sorry, Brother, I didn't mean-""I know you are deeply hurt by your mate betraying you. But you can't let our successor fall into the hands of those ruthless alphas. You know what the Ivyari will do with your mate and baby, right? Are you going to stand by like this? And let us lose? Are you going to continue to mourn your heartache for her?" Xander stared silently at his uncle, not daring to argue or do anything that
Author's POVThe female beta approached Xander and immediately introduced herself."I, Ralia, you must be Xander, the dangerous rogue prince, right?"Xander took a few steps back in anticipation."Don't be afraid...""I'm not afraid of you, I'm just wary," Xander replied quickly."Who are you looking for in the forest of the alphas? Do you want to steal the Alpha's treasure?"Xander chuckled, "The alpha's treasure? Do I look so poor that I would steal from those poor alphas?"The woman named Ralia laughed blandly, her laugh sounding more like a wail of sadness."Don't force your laughter, because it will only make your pretty face look hideous." Xander sarcastically told her."Really? Do I look pathetic? But .....""Is it you? Who said that looking happier than me?" Ralia mocked back.Xander growled, "don't waste my time, now quickly tell me are you here to arrest me?"Ralia got closer, until now the distance between the two was only a few centimeters."Are you going to help me get my
Author's POV"Alarick, we have to hand over the girl and the baby to the organization. You can't put it off any longer..."The voice echoed in the silent room, it sounded so clear to Xevia's sense of hearing.That voice made Xevia curious, she knew this would not end well for her, considering it was Louvre Ivyari who said that. Yes, that woman, Alarick's mother.The cruel woman who had made her life more miserable than ever."When will the sacrifice be made, mother?""As soon as possible.""Don't we need to wait for the baby's birth time?""I don't think so, we can cut open the woman's abdomen to force the baby out.""Then what about the other potential sacrifices?""We will do the same to the other potential sacrifices. It's just that you know, this ritual won't do any good if the baby of the blind rogue prince doesn't exist? We really need them, that bitch and her baby...""Alright, mom, I'll take her to the ritual site.""No, you but us...""We have to take her now, we don't have m
Xander slipped into a truck that had just stopped in front of the dome-like structure. It was the only way he could think of at the moment."Who sent you?" someone asked from outside."Mrs. Luciad.""What's in the truck? Can we take a look?""Just groceries and fruits, you can check if you want," the driver replied.Xander's heart skipped a beat at the sound of the guards' footsteps approaching where he was hiding. He was hiding behind wooden boxes that were filled with vegetables and fruits."Matte, Mrs. Ivyari will be here soon, she asked us to be ready.""And what about this truck? I have not checked it yet.""Mr. Josh told me yesterday that there will indeed be a truck carrying groceries for us. So I guess this is the truck he was referring to.""Are you sure?" The officer raised his eyebrows."I'm pretty sure, because this old man has often delivered goods in and out of this place.""Well, if that's what you say,""Hey old man! Come on, you can come in, bring your truck straight
"Are you new?" One of the guards asked when it was Xander's turn to get the stale food.Xander pretended to be helpless and nodded like a weak fool."What department do you work in? How come I never see you?" The guard raised one eyebrow.Xander panicked as the guard asked him about something he hadn't prepared an answer for. But luckily his eyes were sharp enough to catch a list tacked up not far from where he was in line now. A list of the places where these rogues were employed."In the sanktuarium." Xander replied casually.The man came closer to his face, sniffing and trying to recognize him."You are rogues, but why do you look like an alpha? Who caught you?" he asked again."Dumbass, hurry up, the queue is getting longer, why are you questioning that guy for so long?" screeched the guard behind them."Yes, big mouth. Be a little patient. Hey you handsome rogues, you have a nice ass! Step forward!" the guard patted Xander's butt and invited him to step forward. Now Xander could
The image of the man who closely resembled the photo of Xevia's late father disappeared after saying those words. It was a message about Xevia having to take care of herself because the mission she was on was not an easy one. The mission required her to kill someone. A good person who would be able to do something for their country even if it wasn't in the way they had imagined it to be at that time. She didn’t think anyone had expected her to succeed so soon. But, as a member of the Special Task Force and the commander of the second team, she was supposed to have more resources than anyone else present. Her abilities were already remarkable enough to make people look up to her, and when she took on this mission without being fully briefed… it made them realize how much of a problem she really was. She hadn't wanted to come back. Not until she had seen what the world had become. But now, she was here, in the middle of the enemy. And she was going to go through with this. She coul
Xevia ran through the dark forest, trying to avoid the pursuing old wolf behind her. Her bare feet made no sound on the damp mossy ground, but she knew that the big wolf was gaining steadily on her with every step she took. She’d been running since the sun went down; all of yesterday.The woods around them were thick and dense, a place that could hide anything. Even though it was dark now, she could still see the huge tree trunks in every direction, some almost twice as tall as a human being. Their branches spread out overhead, blocking off everything else and offering shelter from the cold autumn night wind. They were also too far away for her to make any noise, but still close enough that if Xevia stopped. After feeling a little safe, Xevia transformed herself into a wolf so that she could defeat the old alpha behind her. In her conscious state, she could feel how her body turned into a wolf with a tail of fire. With the animalistic strength born of pure instinct, she slashed at the
A beautiful full moon night. Xevia and the old alpha stood at the edge of the ravine looking up at the sky. "Soon it will be time..." said the old man.At exactly midnight, Xevia would transform into a wolf. It had been a week now that she'd learned to control her transformations. "Yes." She agreed. The old man was one of the few who knew that she'd become this way before... when her father had left. She had been raised by a kind beta woman, but the old man had insisted on taking care of her. He didn't know the truth about her origins though. He couldn't understand what the pack did. And he never would, until he saw it with his own eyes. The old man looked at her carefully as if trying to judge whether or not he could trust her. His golden eyes were warm, even through the dark. He was an older male werewolf of average height with white hair and wrinkles around his eyes and mouth. He was wearing some sort of military uniform. He smiled softly, "You're ready then, are you?" he aske
Today, a gloomy day, the sky is filled with clouds and the wind is blowing hard. The sun has hidden itself behind the thick cover of gray that covers the whole earth, making it as dark as night and as quiet as the grave. It’s not unusual, the world is changing fast and the weather will get worse soon, but it's still gloomy and she know why it is that it is so dark out now, it's raining. She can feel it too when she look at the grey sky and even though it is raining hard. The old alpha, who did not want to give his name, asked Xevia to follow him. "Sir, where are you taking me?"The old man crossed his index finger in front of his lips to signal Xevia to be quiet. He stopped walking then looked around for some time before he turned to face her again. "Follow," he replied softly and walked away from where they were standing just moments ago. She had no choice but to follow, though it felt like an invisible force held her back. But when Xeveia opened her mouth to ask what is going on s
Xevia looked at the old man whom Alisha called grandfather while paying close attention."Who are you? And how did you find this remote place?" The old man frowned in astonishment.The place where he lived was not a place easily accessible to ordinary people. And it could not be found by humans. So it was certain that only the descendants of lycans and wolves could find this place."I-"Xevia walked up to the old man."I am the daughter of Lorenzo Farkass." She replied in a calm tone. Then she looked down at her hands for a moment before looking back up again and smiling warmly at him."My name is Xevia. It is my pleasure to make your acquaintance."The old man stared at Xevia with wide eyes for a moment before his expression shifted into that of an amused smile."Lorenzo Farkass did you say? You must be joking!""Do you know my father?" Xevia said curiously."Yes. I knew your dad. He was a very talented man." The old man nodded. "But, I didn't know that he had a daughter?""It's a l
After her encounter with alpha Roman, as well as several other alphas who are known as one of the most powerful and trained alphas, Xevia finally continued her journey. Of course, after getting some clues from Beta Siege about where she should look for the whereabouts of the old alpha who trained her father to become the strongest warrior.Xevia deliberately asked for help from these alphas, she needed support because if it came to Luciad and Ivyari stepping in to fight her then she needed reinforcements so that her intention to take revenge and destroy them could be carried out.Xevia knew it would not be easy, but she had promised herself that she would not give up.She promised to give a better life to Leon and everyone who believed in her."Alpha Roman, uncle Siege, thank you for receiving me so well. Thank you for your help and the banquet, I take my leave. I hope that when this mission is over, I can meet you again." Xevia said while accepting the bag that had been filled with m
Today Beta Siege took Xevia to the place where he and Xevia's late father used to spend time together.It was there that they met the mysterious alpha who eventually became the teacher who trained her father and turned him into an invincible warrior.Her father was a half-blood warrior who was ostracised for his unique abilities, he was banished and considered a curse. However, in the end her father was the one who saved the wolf clan from destruction, saving many of the alphas he hated from being killed and attacked by demon-worshipping immortal wolves.Now, Xevia and Siege stood at the top of a green hill. In front of them lay a thick mist that made the hill feel like it was above the clouds. It was the same color as the sky on cloudy days. The sun could barely shine through, its rays were blocked by the dense fog. But despite this, she still felt warm. "How about it?" asked Beta Siege glancing at the young woman beside him who was looking at the scene before her with a face of amaz
"Mum, take it easy," Alarick tried to calm his mother, who had been emotionally explosive for several days."Calm down? How can you ask me to calm down at a time like this?" Lourve shouted back at her son."Yes, I'm asking you to calm down, because I'm sure I can fix everything.""Everything? Are you sure you can clean up all this mess?" Lourve shouted again, this time lowering her voice slightly as the argument with her son was not something she wanted to be heard by the Luciad family who were now hosting them.After the failure of the ritual, both Lourve and Alarick no longer dared to go home.The North Aminour region was now controlled by her first son, whom she had put in a dungeon for refusing to join the sect of demon worshippers she led.The commoners who had favoured his eldest son from the start revolted and freed Domani Ivyari. They then forced the councillors to crown Domani that very night, disregarding the other rule of waiting for the presence of Lourve or any other broth
"Who do you want to see?" Some guards- they were the omegas of uncle Siege's men."Uncle Siege, is he home?""Who are you?" The guard looked at Xevia with a face full of suspicion."I'm Xevia Brielle Farkass, tell that to uncle Siege. I'm sure he recognises me."The guard furrowed his brow."Wait here!" he snapped and went inside, leaving Xevia still outside the fence.***"Beta Siege, someone is looking for you," the omega guarding the house contacted Beta Siege using the interphone embedded in the front wall."Who?" The man's hoarse voice answered."Xevia Brielle Farkass-"What? Did he already know her true identity? How is that possible? Who told her?Beta Siege muttered to himself."Bring the girl in. Take her straight to my office!" His order which was immediately obeyed by the omega guards.***"Miss Farkass, you are welcome to enter by our master. Come with me..." The Omega guard who had been cynical and stern changed his attitude towards Xevia instantly.The omega man became mo
