Logan POV . . At night... "This is ridiculous!' Alaric snorted under his breath. Victoria commanded us to stay in the middle of the forest to reflect. It took them a couple of hours to convince us to agree to their stupid plan. Alaric picked up a stone and threw it in the dark. "F*ck!" I scoffed and rolled my eyes at his exaggerated expression. Getting up from the ground, I stepped away for a while. I couldn't stand being with this bloodsucker for just a second. How about more days or months? "To sh!t this!" I whispered good enough for him to hear it. He glanced over his shoulder before he gradually turned around. Our stares met, burning and bleeding in both rage and disgust. "You think I also approved of this, werewolf king?!" He sarcastically uttered, making me raise my brow at him. "No matter what we do, there is no way that vampires and werewolves will be at peace!" He stressed out. "You think I also want that, vampire prince?" I also told him with the same tone

Jaque POV . . We were here. We were now here at the final destination of the Rogie King. We clasped our hands as we approached the wooden fence near the entrance of this forest. It was just a simple barrier for human eyes, but for creatures like us, it was the doorway to the realm of the hollies. The fence was just beside the highway where a few cars passed by. This highway was in the middle of mountain trees, and the only lights that served as the vision of the drivers were the post lamps with a distance of ten meters away each. "So, this is it!" I breathed. "Are you ready, my king?" Forcing a smile, but my hands were shaking. I just couldn't imagine Logan parting with me again, and this one had no chance of returning. If he failed, then he failed. If he won, then it would be a great victory for everyone. "I am, sweetheart. Don't be anxious, okay? I promised to be back, hence I will be back!" He smiled back with the reassurance to return to me alive. I hugged him tight
Jaque POV . . "Okay, they're gone. What are we still waiting for here? Christmas? New Year?!" Collen uttered with a little sarcasm. I couldn't blame him. We had been here for like hours, just staring at the darkness. "How about a new face?!" Victoria answered back, still upset. "Can't you be a little sensitive, Collen?!" She added. "Do I need to answer that?!" Collen retorted rather. These two were really more of a cat and a dog. "Come on, guys. If there's nothing that I need to do here now, I am going back to my chamber. Chao!" "Collen!" Victoria called him, but he shifted into a crow and flew away. "Really an a$$!" The high witch whispered under her breath. She was a bit cute when she crossed her arms on her chest. It showed the kid side of her when she also stomped her feet. Victoria was more than a hundred years old, who stopped growing when her mother transferred her power to her. It was a bit of pity that she was bestowed with such power and responsibilities a
Jaque POV . . "Jaque is pregnant?!" Adam exclaimed, shocked and not believing. "Are you sure about that?!" His face was as dim as the darkness in the forest. "Alpha Adam, when it comes to a new life, I don't doubt my intuition," Witch Anya exclaimed back. Then she glanced back at me. "Jaque, you're carrying a life inside you. You're carrying the king's heir. The more you need to be protected. I suggest you stay at the Blood Moon Pack until this baby is born!" "Seriously, Witch Anya, I prefer to stay at the kingdom rather than in the pack where I almost died every day. Don't you get me? Blood Moon Pack is more dangerous for me to live in!" I couldn't help but glanced at Adam, who suddenly looked down at the ground, feeling embarrassed and guilty. "No offense, Adam, but I am talking about my own blood there. Jasmine and her scheming mother!" Adam ambled toward me and held my hand. "Jaque, I swear in the eyes of the moon goddess that I will protect you and make you my priori
Jaque POV . . The mansion looked empty. Jackson and some of the warriors of Shadow Rock already went back to the US a month ago. They brought Serena and her omega to justice. I gradually sat on the sofa and accidentally touched my flat tummy. I remembered that I was no longer alone. I was carrying a tiny life. The fruit of our love with each other. "Baby, if your daddy knows you are arriving in the world before he left, he would have more strength to endure the possible hardships and struggles he would encounter there!" I whispered as I caressed my belly. Even if the baby was still a small blood, I felt like it had already a mind to think and a heart to feel. I guessed that was the essence of motherhood. Did my mom feel the same thing when she was conceiving me? "Your mind is flying!" Suddenly, Adam uttered, smiling. He sat beside me while his gaze was fixed on me. He crossed his arms over my chest, now smirking. I couldn't help but jokingly hit his arm. "Shvt up! I am just
Adam POV . . She was after Jaque. That was obvious. The more there was a reason that I should be with her, now that the king was out there fighting for our survival. I stared at her, worried was laced on my din expression. "Jaque, whether you like it or not, I will be with you until King Logan comes back. You can bring Gamma Kyle and Katrina with you if you like!" I was fully aware that Kyle was her gamma, and Katrina was one of her loyal servants. The rest were all just with her if she had some events to attend to, to groom or prepare her outfit. "Thanks, Adam, but I don't think Serena knows where I really am. She thought I was with Logan and staying at the castle. Serena has no idea where Alaric's castle is!" "For now, yeah! But didn't you hear what Andrew said? She used dark magic to escape. She can also use that to locate your whereabouts. Jaque, allow me to be with you until King Logan comes back!" I was this close to losing patience with her. Ever since we were kids,
Logan POV . . "This d*mn place is the world of chaos!" Alaric had been commenting nonstop upon arriving at the realm of the gods and goddesses. "I fully remember that it wasn't like this when mom sent us to Earth. It was a place of magnificence and awesomeness!" He fully remembered, but I couldn't remember anything. What I felt upon stepping into this land of the gods was Thorin would like to surface. My power arose and was overwhelming. I gasped as I felt him wanting to come out again. My wolf was leading us. He was literally the one showing me the way. "Wait! We have to stop and find a place to stay. It is getting dark!" I told Alaric, and he just laughed. "Are you tired, King Logan? We are not even far from the portal yet. Just 10 kilometers away, and you are this exhausted?!" He clicked his tongue and shook his head. "Can you even fight the goddess of darkness with this kind of situation you have?" "I am not sure if I release Thorin now, I might kill you or any living
Logan POV . . "The Presidential Suite it is. Aren't you going to finish the feast, King Logan?" King Bodvar asked. "I am very much eager to be with your wife, King Bodvar. So, if I may. I would like to rest now!" I told her as I gripped Queen Anicia's hand, making her whimper. "Huh! The queen of the werebear kingdom is yours for tonight. Let me know in the morning at breakfast if she satisfies you!" He even winked. He didn't care if his first wife was being raped by anyone. I glanced at the queen, whose eyes were still pleading. I had to do something before it would be too late. I turned around and stared deeply at her. I glanced at my beta, and he secretly nodded. He spoke to the king about the food to distract his attention. "You understand what I signed earlier?" I whispered as I moved my lips closer to her ears, pretending I was kissing her. "Yes, I do. Let's go before he changes his mind!" She replied. Without further ado, we exited the banquet and left the kin
Logan POV . . We had been wasting time for a couple of hours. Every time I would open the topic about the deranged werebears, he would start a new story about his kingdom. He would command his wives to entertain us. He would always find ways to channel the main reason why we came here into another conversation. Just like now, he began speaking about how the werebear kingdom had started. "My grandfather was ruthless!" He let out a crazy laugh, enough to get my ears twitch. "He invaded four small werebear tribes and began a small kingdom. He made those tribe chiefs his advisers!" "Impressive. Making your enemies your advisers!" Beta Jackson chuckled. "He was vicious!" Henry butted in with a sneer. "Indeed. The vicious werebear king of all. Those tribe chiefs couldn't do anything. They were all under his feet. Even their wives were offered to him, and their sons became the warriors of his kingdom!" "Hmm!" I just reacted. That reminded me of someone. My own grandfather. He cre
Logan POV . . We were on our way to the werebear kingdom. It was reported that King Bodvar's grandfather bought the whole island to build his kingdom, and now, as time passed by, it was progressing. Upon arriving at the airport, my Beta and five warriors took our luggage and strode straight to the exit. The Immigration checked our belongings. One of the officers sternly stared at us while opening the zipper of our luggage. This officer was not human. He was a~ "You must be King Logan from the Shadow Rock!" He whispered, making me gaze deeply at him. "I am Henry, assistant of King Bodvar. I am here to pick you!" He uttered as he raised his hand, and five brawny and bearded men appeared at the door. "I see!" We let them carry our stuff and followed them closely. The airport was crowded, not because of the passengers waiting for their flight, but because these humans couldn't stop staring at us. We were like celebrities being surrounded by our fans. It was a good thing I was we
King Bodvar POV . . At the Werebear Kingdom... "My king!" The door slid open in my office. I lifted my head and closed the book I was reading. I creased my brows at my assistant and slammed the book on my mahogany desk. "Forgive me, my king. This is a letter from the Rogue King, King Logan Knight!" "What's the matter?!" I took the envelope from my assistant and read his letter. It has his stamp marked in red at the bottom of the paper. The logo of his kingdom was on top, along with its name, Shadow Rock. "Hmm! Prepare a feast. We will have important visitors tomorrow night. The mighty Rogue King and his Beta are coming to our kingdom!" I placed King Logan's letter in the drawer and got up. I fixed the collar of my suit before patting Henry's shoulder. He had been my assistant for years and the only one I could trust. "My king, what is the purpose of his visit?" He asked, curious. I walked past him and stood straight near the glass wall, watching the sunshine. My building
Logan POV . . "I want to buy their new branded phones. I have read on their news that they have new models of phones every day. And their sauna there is wonderful. Logan, can we go tomorrow? I will ask Katrina to pack our stuff in a jiffy. She will also go with us, right? Witch Anya, too!" She was thrilled that she couldn't stop talking. She paced back and forth with excitement. "Can Jackson and Kelly go with us? Oh no! They can't, right? Jackson has some work to do here while we are gone. But Kelly and Jack can go, right? A hundred percent they can go with us!" I had to stop her from imagining wild. "Sweetheart, you have to stop there for a while and think about this through!" "But why? The kingdom has three private planes. There is no problem, just in case. We can bring five to ten omegas and warriors with us. There won't be any danger, Logan!" What was going on with my mate? She suddenly changed, I thought. "I know. You are right. Let's go home first and talk about th
Logan POV . . I was irked in pain while the royal doctor healed my wounds. I had a wolf, but Shiva had done so much that even my healing ability couldn't heal them. "Sh!t! That's hurt!" "Forgive me, King Logan, but your wounds are deep!" The royal doctor uttered. "The queen is scary!" He added. Our imperial physician had been with us since my grandfather's reign, and he was like a grandfather to me. He was one of the wolves who could comment like this about Jaque. "Doctor, you have no idea!" I told him. When she was biting me earlier, I felt she also bit my clavicle. "Could you also check my bones?" The doctor coughed hard at my question. "Why?" I sternly asked him. "Yes, you are right on that one. Your clavicle is broken. We have to put on a bandage and you must wear this for a while!" He showed me the sling, and my eyes widened. "You have to wear this until it is completely healed. And no sparring or sports for you!" "F*ck! I have never worn any of that in my entire
Jaque POV . . I was enraged when that vamp put her hands on my mate's shoulders and moved her annoying face near his cheek. I didn't care if she was saying something, but as a responsible mate, he should have pushed her. But heck no! He also moved his head to the side, meeting her lips. From my angle, they were almost kissing each other. I couldn't control Shiva's emotions at that time she shifted right straight into his room, making Katrina clamp her mouth in shock. She even sprinted to the corner when she saw how big Shiva was. They had never seen me shift before. They just saw my claws, my fangs, and the glow in my eyes. Some of them had never seen my wolf yet. This would be the first time. I printed quietly out of the room, remembering my goal. I didn't want to create a show in front of these vamps. It's not yet the right time to appear in my wolf form in front of them, especially to that vamp b!tch. But I could take exception to my mate. I hid in the corner while waiti
Logan POV . . "Amber is right, King Logan!" Cassius seconded. "There is someone in the room who is more qualified to be Prince Alaric's temporary successor!" This old vamp didn't want to give up. This was what Alaric was telling me before. There were hard-headed elders in the council who were also greedy for power, and the first one on the list was Cassius. "Alright, like I said. Present me that qualified member of yours!" I gently slammed the table, a tad bit impatient. I glanced at the doctor who had been silent since the meeting commenced. I had no idea what was running in his mind, but his calmness was somewhat intriguing. "King Logan, that vampire is no other than me!" Suddenly, Amber, the Council leader's daughter, answered. Some of the vampires at the table nodded, agreeing with Cassius and his daughter. However, Doctor Williams was just staring at everyone. His head didn't move, but his orbs were glancing from left to right. He was stealthily observing his fellow va
Jaque POV . . "Logan, you're back!" I hastily ran toward him and hugged him tightly, ignoring that I was wet all over. Logan hugged me back while his stare was with Doctor Williams. The doctor had just looked down at the floor. His lips formed a thin smile. "I had just arrived from the mansion of the leader of the Vampire Council. Since not all vampire leaders can come tonight, I just gave Cassius a ride to the palace!" He cupped my face and kissed my lips, much to my surprise. The kiss was possessively deep and somewhat threatening. When he released my lips, he glanced back at the doctor, who was still bowing his head. "What about you, my queen? What have you been doing since you woke up?" There was some hidden meaning in his questions, and the tone of his voice was sarcastic. "Oh! I was swimming with Katrina when Doctor Williams arrived for the meeting!" I glanced at Katrina, who was carrying a towel. She hastily strode toward me and hung the towel on my shoulders. "I s
