Logan POV . . "We're here!" Orora uttered. She turned around and glanced at us. "King Logan, it is your turn now!" She gave me the go sign. "Alright! Let's go!" We strode to the main entrance of the Rouge pack. Two warriors were standing on both sides of the metal gate. "Greetings to you, King!" They both uttered as they put their fists on their chests. "My king, it is a sudden visit. It must be important!" One of the warriors said. "Yes! I need to speak with your leader here. Where is Esteban?" I appointed Esteban to be their leader temporarily until he showed he was fit to be the alpha. "He is at the packhouse, my king. We had a visitor this morning, and he is still entertaining her until now!" When we heard the word her, we immediately rushed inside and ran like a flash. The two warriors were shocked, but they remained rooted in their spot. "Logan, one of the warriors, alerted Esteban. I saw his eyes flash red!" Collen told us. "That's alright. Esteban needs to
Logan POV . . We hiked to the white mountains and followed the trails that Esteban and his warriors had made for their so-called pack run. Even if they didn't have an official pack yet, the fact that they were around 50 wolves, they could already form a pack. However, since the council rule said that a new pack should be registered with a legal alpha, beta, delta, and gamma, they weren't called a pack yet. It was a good thing that the weather was favorable to us. We could consider this already as a form of exercise. I glanced around and saw a black hawk flying in the sky. "That's Collen!" I told Esteban, and he was stunned by Collen's power. "I wish I could also shift into different forms!" He couldn't help but praise him. "Can he also shift into a human? I mean, can he copy another person's face?" "Yes, he can. He can copy you if he wants!" It was Orora who answered. "By the way, Logan. Why didn't you just let me teleport you, guys?" Suddenly, she asked. "That is beca
Logan POV . . "King Logan, the wind is gone. Alpha Lycus will come for us here in a brief moment!" Orora uttered. "I know. The tunnel is too narrow for Thorin to shift. Can you teleport us?" I suddenly remembered. "I can try, but it takes time. I feel like there's a negative energy here that is keeping my power weak!" Orora confessed. I felt that energy, too. "I will steal time. You do whatever is necessary. We have to help Collen fight Tia. The wolves can't take her alone!" I told her as I stood in the middle of the tunnel, waiting for that bloodsucking mutt. 'Thorin, buddy, help me track that bastard!' I spoke to my wolf. He, too, was furious. 'He is near. He is still in his bloodsucking mutt form.' I could also feel him. He moved fast. Orora began her chanting. I heard a hiss coming from the wall. 'Spider attack, huh? That's the best you've got?' I sneered. Alaric once trained me in the realm and taught me about their different moves. This one was the so-called spid
Tia POV . . When I heard that Serena was dead, there was this little gladness I felt. Without her, my position would level up. I was an omega, almost a slave. But the goddess of darkness used my body as her vessel. She used me to perform powers and attacked the wolves. Since then, Serena could not touch me, but I still felt the pang of jealousy every time goddess Alectrona favored her more than me. However, now that she was gone, goddess Alectrona focused on nurturing me. I felt special. She gave me more missions. I was the one who teleported in the secret door to feed Alpha Lycus. He sucked my blood and almost drained me. I had to leave before he could also kill me. I was supposed to bring him to the house where I was hiding, but I heard footsteps inside. They got the chance to open the door. I had to teleport back outside and just left. But the two warriors saw and recognized me. I just killed their assistant. They wanted revenge. Huh! These fools. They thought they could de
Logan POV . . "Where the h*ll is he?" I roared, making the floor and the wall shake. Some of the nurses had to hold something so they wouldn't fall on the floor. The doctors jolted into their spots and bowed their heads. "I am asking you once again. Where is Lycus?" "My king, he has escaped!" One stupid doctor had the nerve to tell me what was obvious. I gripped his neck and lifted him up, His feet were dangling in the air. "M-my king!" He was trying to escape from my grasp. "You think I can't see that. What I am asking you is how he escaped?" I gritted my teeth and was this close to breaking his neck. I heard him gag, but I was deaf and blind at the moment. Deaf to his cry and blind to his situation. "My king, I think I have an answer to your question!" One of the nurses butted in, shaking in fear. "I saw Marliza talking to someone before she!" She glanced at the dead body of the nurse on the floor. "She died!" I dropped the stupid doctor and nodded to get off my sigh
Logan POV . . We entered the door of Amos' office without him around. He knew we were coming but didn't even bother to welcome us. "That sick old mutt is looking for trouble!" Jackson was upset. "I'm gonna give him a lesson once I see him. Just tell me what to do!" He was gritting his teeth the entire time. "I will give you the floor once we find out that my assumption is true!" I told him as I rummaged through his stuff. "Where the h*ll is he?" I couldn't believe I was also asking myself the same thing. Until he arrived, adjusting his necktie a tad bit. "King Logan, I am sorry. I just went to the washroom. I think I may have eaten something that is not delectable!" "Hmm! I see!" I just said. The corner of my lips curled up into a sneer. "You are a werewolf, Alpha Amos, not a human. Your wolf can cure a simple stomach ache!" Jackson sarcastically told him, making him cough. "I guess my wolf isn't strong today!" He chuckled at his own joke, but we didn't even bother
Jaque POV . . "Hello, darling. How are you?" I ambled towards Logan, but he strode towards me and gave me a deep throbbing kiss right away. It lasted for a few seconds before he let go of my lips. "Sweetheart, we have an audience!" I told him as I glanced at Jackson and Queen Anicia, who was just standing next to me. "Who cares? I missed you, my mate!" He whispered and was about to kiss me again when the werebear queen spoke. "Goddess sake, get a room!" She exclaimed, making me chuckle. "We are here to give you information about your council, King Logan!" Logan had no choice but to stop hugging me and start listening to us. Jackson strode toward us and nodded at the queen right away. "What's up, brave warrior?" He jokingly uttered. "Been good, Beta Jackson. What about you? Have you solved your problem with your mate?" The queen teased. "You have to help me with that. When we're finished with this, you have to come with me and explain to her!" Jackson demanded. The qu
Tia POV . . It was a good thing I was informed earlier by Amos before they killed him. Of course, it was automatic. The next place that they were going to track was the werebear kingdom. Hmp! I really never cared if that perverted king would die or his kingdom would lose. Just like goddess Alectrona said, we just used them to keep them busy. While they were busy chasing after us, we were already finished with our plan. Vicious and well-detailed! "Tia, it's me, Lycus!" That old bastard was knocking on my door. If only we didn't need his strength and power, I would never agree to babysit him. "Come in, Lycus!" I told him. I would never call him Alpha Lycus. Since he didn't have a pack anymore. Lycus opened the door and stepped into my room. "I'm still starving!" He sneered. "Oh! Come on! You just had three packs of blood. Don't make me go hunt again!" I stomped my feet, screaming my protest. Since I brought him to my hideout, he never stopped asking for blood. "Also,
Amira POV . . I missed Adam. What I meant was I missed him. All of him. This was crazy. I had a mate, but I couldn't feel any special fondness for him anymore. I didn't even know when it started. "Ahh! This is insane!" I pulled my hair out of stress, and this was the one that Ayesha saw when she entered my room. "Princess Amira, are you alright?" She immediately came to my aid and brushed my hair with her fingers. "You know well that your hair is the crown of your glory. Why are you ruining it?" She ticked her tongue as she began adorning my hair with pearls and diamonds. "By the way, I came to say that Princess Nomiko wanted to invite you for tea time. She just summoned me this morning!" "Great! I will go. When will that be?" I immediately accepted Nomiko's invitation. I had never seen her for a month now, and I also needed her company. I needed someone to talk to about this. Someone who had no idea that much yet about us, about me and Adam. "That will be tomorrow?" Aye
Adam POV . . I got up and fixed the hem of my sleeves while Camira helped Delmar get up. I was so furious that when he got the chance to stand steadily, I gave him a strong hit on the jaw, making Camira startle as he fell back to the floor. "Alpha Adam, what do you think you're doing?" She immediately stepped between us, shielding this impostor from me. He groaned, getting up for the second time. Still smirking at me while Camira faced my rage. "You can't pretend for d*mn too long, j@ck@ss!" I roared. "You are lucky, Camira is here. If not, I would have torn you into pieces!" I pointed at him, Camira snapping my hand. "That's enough!" She roared at me. "He doesn't fight you, okay? Whatever that is that makes you upset again!" I shifted my glare at Camira and mind-linked her. 'Believe that j@ck@ss all you want, but I am telling you!' I glanced back at him, who was now standing still while touching his jaw. 'He has a hidden agenda, and we are all in great danger if we do
Adam POV . . Just one ordinary day at the Council. I was busy flipping the pages of some documents Camira sent me this morning while browsing some of the reports on my laptop. I creased my brows when my eyes caught something. 'Camira!' I mind-linked our budget officer at once. 'To the office!' I gently uttered. Being the leader, you should be tough and aggressive. That was the teaching Amos planted to the staff here, but I was not Amos and would never be. I treated the staff here as my friends, at the same time putting a wall between us. Meaning, we should all know our positions. 'Yes, Alpha!' Camira responded. 'Shall I bring you something, Alpha?' She also asked. I could already smell her scent coming to my office. 'No! Just you!' I told her. I had my laptop, and the budget for next month's emergency funds for every pack was flashing on the screen monitor. 'Alpha, what's the matter?' She asked as she arrived at the door. I just nodded at her, signaling her to take the s
Adam POV . . "Witch Orora, can I come in?" Since last night, aside from that overwhelming feeling I shared with Amira, I felt something different. Something unexplainable. Something that only the witches could tell. When she just left this morning, I felt devastated, like I had lost something that was part of me. Like I had lost my heart and my soul. The door creaked open, and Orora's stern face welcomed my desperate look. "What is it, Alpha Adam?" Her tone was also nonchalant. Did something happen before I came here? "Alpha Adam, if you are just going to stare at me in front of my door, you can take a photo and leave!" I was nudged by her aggressive voice. "My bad. Can I come in? I need your help with this one. It is about Amira!" I heard her sigh and saw her roll her eyes before she opened the door wide and let me in. "Would you like some tea?" Her voice was still stoic but a little bit nicer this time. Also, yes, I was going to need a liquid to calm my nerves. "T
Orora POV . . Something was odd. I had been searching for that book in my library for hours but I couldn't find it. I had been floating in the air for hours and circling around these stacks of ancient books. I hadn't read that book for disguise in a long time, and now that I needed it, I couldn't find it. "Arrg! Orora, think! Come on!" I swayed my wand, and it formed a glitter in the air. That wand was a gift from the moon goddess itself. She told me to use it if something important needed to be fixed. For now, Amira's situation was THAT something very important. "Orora, we have a visitor!" One of my witches knocked on the door. "It is Princess Amira's mate, Delmar!" I immediately went down to the floor and stuck my wand on the side of my waistband while forming a fake smile. "Vina, stock them back. Hurry!" I told my witch, and she hurriedly used her power to put all the books back on the shelves while I went to the door. Delmar was indeed here, and he was waiting outside t
Amira POV . . "Delmar, I...I am just here. I won't leave!" I told him as I tapped his shoulder and tried to step back, but his hug was tight, and he was trying to catch my lips. "I miss you, my darling!" Before I could stop him, his lips had already sealed mine. However, the feelings were not the same. I felt my lips burning, and I was suffocating. I tried to suppress it, but the more I did, the more I felt I was drowning. Until I did my best to be released from his tight wrap. "Delmar, I am sorry. I just had a headache now. I drank too much last night!" I saw something in his eyes, but I couldn't put a name to it. He looked still upset and disappointed. "Alright! I will give you time to rest. I will come back this afternoon. No! Tomorrow! I will visit you tomorrow!" He said with a stern face. I was pretty sure he didn't like my reaction to the kiss he just did. "Okay, Delmar. See you tomorrow!" I just told him. When he left, I dropped myself to the floor. I felt weak
Amira POV . . How stupid I was. I let that happen. I slept with Alpha Adam last night. I was no longer drunk. I was sober. But I still did a tremendous act, betraying my mate. How stupid could I get? I scolded myself as I paced back and forth in my room. Ayesha still had no idea that I was already home. 'What will I do now? Did Delmar feel my betrayal? Did he feel my unfaithfulness?' I bit my thumb. A mannerism I had since I was a kid every time I was anxious or even scared. I shvt my eyes, trying to think whether to tell Delmar about it or not. However, instead of imagining Delmar's face, Adam's annoyingly good-looking feature last night flashbacked in my mind. The way he caressed me. The way he moaned my name. The way he claimed me. The way he called me his love. The way he stared at me dotingly. They all melted in my mind and stayed in my heart. 'Amira, you are mine and mine only!' I could still remember how he claimed me with possessiveness. It tickled my heart. It gav
Adam POV . . I willed Jasmine to come here. In the meantime, I had no idea where Jasmine's loyalty lay. Sometimes, she looked different. She was someone who could be trusted in small matters. Other times, she was confusing. Her personality had changed a lot since the time I stripped her of her title as the future Luna of the Blood Moon Pack. Jasmine obeyed at once when I told her what to do. She didn't say anything nor ask for any condition for her little sacrifice. She performed the task well. I knew that my nanny for years was scolding Amira in the dining room. With my wolf hearing, I could hear her clearly. A smile crept on my lips on how Myhesni protected and fought for me. She was indeed my mom outside of the womb. I knew that Jasmine heard them, too. I told Jasmine to bring my suit now, at three in the morning, which was very unusual for me. I commanded her to stay in my room for at least 30 minutes or less. When the time was up, I deliberately knocked the books on my
Amira POV . . He brought me to his villa. I had been here once before. I heard he had three omegas, serving him. One was taking care of his meals and groceries. One was cleaning his place and gardening. The last one was taking care of his clothes and some appointments or schedules. I glanced around, still familiarizing myself with the choice of colors he used. 'Not bad, but it's not his personality!' I murmured, uttering inwardly. He brought me here to speak about that bar incident. But he also let me wait for him in the living room. I ambled to the stairs, lifting my head on the second floor, where he went about thirty minutes ago. I took a deep sigh, counting the ticking of the clock on the wall. 'One, two, three!' It was now three in the morning, and here I was still awake and in another place. Ayesha, Demeter, and Orora were being taken care of by the two betas. I was about to go to the dining room when suddenly, the digital door lock produced a sound. Somebody was coming
