Jaque POV . . It took us a lot of effort to reach out to her only to find out that she wasn't the sister Anya said used to be, or she was always that traitor who played under our noses, and we just didn't see it well. We were blinded by her 'victim' behavior and innocent act. I was blinded by pity and the eagerness to protect her because among my sisters and brothers, I thought she was different. However, she wasn't. I could say she was worse than them! "Orora, we're giving you a chance to redeem yourself. Stop this madness now!" I yelled between their chants while Anya tried to reverse their strong spells. What percentage were the chances we had here? We had only one witch on our side and a bunch of snarling and growling oversized dogs ruled by their as* of-a-hole king. "You're giving me a chance, Shiva?!" She sneered. "I'm giving you a chance to retreat and give me Thorin. You will never win against us. We outnumbered you!" She laughed like a mad woman. "It's time for t
Jaque POV . . It had been three days since the war between the West coven witches and Shadow Rock warriors had ended. Orora and her sisters were in the dungeon of Logan's kingdom, and according to my source, they were being punished every day. Although I had no idea what punishment Logan prepared for a witch, I could just guess, based on his ruthlessness and fury, that it was something horrible. "Hey, I am going to order pizza. What flavor do you want?" Kelly, my best friend, nudged me on my little wanders. I had been staying at their place since I came back from my fake death. "Anything. You know I eat any pizza flavor on the table!" I smiled at her. The Newman had been hospitable and caring to me even before I met Logan. Now, they had been even more kind. "Okay, I will order Hawaiian and Pepperoni pizza. I'm starving. I think I could eat a horse tonight!" I creased my eyebrows at her words. Since Beta Jackson marked her, her wolf had become a foodie. "You know well
Logan POV . . "What the heck is she still doing at Blood Moon Pack? Draco, get the car ready!" I was fuming in anger, and my wolf was restless. Since we arrived from the West Coven, Jaque had never talked to me. Not even once. She caged herself in her best friend's place and never allowed anyone to speak to her. Anyone except for the family owners, of course. "My king, are we going to pick up our future queen?" Future queen her beautiful as*. She was annoying me most of the time. I didn't even know if she still deserved to be called that. "I've heard from Katrina that Alpha Adam is back, and he went to his beta's place to see her!" "What?!" Definitely not deserving to be called the queen. I was seething in rage confronting Orora at the dungeon, yet I couldn't crack her no matter what I did. "That woman is getting on my nerves!" I strode out, walking past Draco, who immediately followed me in a haste. He hastily opened the backseat door and gently closed it when I got in. D
Logan POV . . This stubborn mate of mine kept on mumbling even if her mouth was taped and her hands were tightly tied. She had been stepping on my feet a lot, causing me to irk once in a while. Her sweat was pouring like a fountain on her face, and the strands of her hair were all over her face. I couldn't even recognize her if I hadn't looked at her eyes, which were glaring furiously at me. We were both sitting in the backseat. Draco was driving, and once in a while, I caught him staring at us in the rearview mirror. "Argh!" I was irked in pain when the heels of her shoe strongly stepped on my Italian leather boot that I was wearing this time. "F*ck it, Jaque!" I roared at her, but she also roared back through mind-link. 'F*ck you, too, as*hole! Take this off. Untie me, Logan. Now!' Her crisp tone was booming at the back of my head, giving me migraine. Even Thorin was having a difficult time handling her and her wolf, who at the moment was snarling at him. Shiva was ready
Jaque POV . . Why was I so weak? When it came to him, I was so useless, and I felt I could not really get mad at him that long. No matter how many times I planted at the back of my head that I would not forgive him and would never come back to his palace, here I was in his car, my wounded lips tangled with his. My mind would like to retreat to this possible regret later on, but my heart was too stubborn and would like to stay. I clenched my fists tightly while his mouth ravished mine. His hand was at the back of my head supporting me. His other hand was busy groping every curve I had, making me gasp once in a while. 'Untie me, Logan!' My sultry voice entered his thoughts, commanding him to release me, and he groaned in his response. I felt his hand release my nape, and I bit his lower lip as a punishment. He mumbled something that was not that audible, but when the rope had been loosed, my hands seemed to have their own minds. They went straight to his chest, touching and t
Jaque POV . . We arrived at the palace with our lips connected. I told him to wait till we got to his room, but he feigned being deaf and just carried me bride-style right after we got out of the car. He caught my slightly agape lips at the entrance right away, making me blush when the warriors and the omegas gathered around to welcome us, well, especially me. I tried to push him in secret, but I felt weak as I was drowned in his great kiss. I had no choice but to close my eyes, pretending to also ignore the palace staff's presence. "Greetings, Your Majesty!" I heard the palace's staff announce in chorus, and surely, they also bowed. Logan just walked past them with me in his arms. When we arrived in his room on the second floor, he opened the door with his hand and also closed it with his foot. He hastily and gently lay me down with still our lips tangled together. He groaned when he felt my hands unclutching his belt. He then finally released my lips and stared at me wi
Jaque POV . . "Hmm, that was refreshing!" He uttered as he lay down beside me and kissed my shoulder. I was still catching my breath when I felt his d*ck hardened again. "Ready for another round?!" He asked, winking. His fingers began drawing circles on my breast. "Are you serious?!" I turned my head to the side to glance at him. I asked with my eyes widened in shock. "Aren't you exhausted?!" I moved to the side to meet his cocky look. "Are you kidding me? My dear Jaque Davis, I didn't even use seventy percent of my vigor here. Can't you see?!" He pointed at his d*ck using his lips and raised his eyebrow while an annoying smirk appeared at the corner of his lips. "Wow! Thorin indeed deserves to be called the king!" I praised his wolf with a little sarcasm, making him not only laugh loudly but also feel proud. "Thanks for the praise for my wolf, my mate. Thorin is purring with what you said!" He gave my shoulder another slight kiss, and before I could say anything, he w
Jaque POV . . I spread my hands on the bed and stretched out, welcoming morning, or should I day afternoon. "Hello, world!" I exclaimed in the quiet room. I glanced at the pillow beside me and felt empty when I saw no presence of Logan. I bet he woke up early and also left early again. A knock made me jolt from my bed, and I went straight to the door. "Wait, please!" I was already aware of what was going to happen next. That could either be Miranda or my four personal maids. I just hoped it was the latter. I ran to the bathroom and fixed myself. After about ten minutes, I went out with a little better version of a human who didn't sleep well last night. I went straight to the door and opened it. Miranda's stern look greeted my plastered smile. "Hello, Miranda!" I told her as I swung the door open. The dear strict assistant or head of the servants just slightly bowed without saying a word. She gasped, though, when she saw my mark. I purposely touched it with my index to
Amira POV . . My fists landed on his sturdy back while my roars went up the roof. I saw Ayesha run to me only to be stopped by Marco on her waist. "Alpha Adam put me down!" I hit him many times, but he just did the same thing to me by slapping my butt. "Shvt up!" He roared back, accompanied by another slap. "Until you learn, spoiled princess, you must be treated with such!" "Treated with such? Hey! Do you even know what you're saying? I have a mate. You shouldn't be touching me like this!" Too late to realize my words. It was really too late to take them back, for the next stuff my butt felt was a hard leather couch. "Ah! I was irked in pain as I scowled at him. "You bastard!" I got up and tried to defend myself, but he just held my wrists and pushed me back to the couch. "Don't push my button, Amira!" He roared, upset. "Because of your stubbornness, the werewolf kingdom is in trouble!" I was about to get up again when he stopped me with his growl. "You stay right there!"
Amira POV . . There was that incredible feeling inside me that I couldn't deny when Adam got mad at this perverted human. When he gripped him by his collar and lifted him up. He was not scared that he also just exposed our kind. When he roared, I was his. It was just so nice to hear it. I couldn't help but amble toward him and pat his shoulder. "Adam, calm down!" I whispered near to his ear, glancing at me a bit and creasing his eyes on me. "You are now choking him!" I told him as I nodded at the guy who was literally on the brink of his death. "Didn't you do the same thing earlier?" He uttered, still furious. "Let him die slowly. I don't care if he dies in my hand!" He gritted his teeth and tightened his grip. "Adam, put him down and let the king punish him for what he did!" I moved closer to him, creating a tiny spark from the contact of our skin. He was still adamant, but when he glanced around and the only ones watching us were our kind, he gradually put the guy down.
Adam POV . . I was in my study room at the packhouse just doing some stuff for the Blood Moon, when suddenly a loud knock on the door made me squint my eyes. Who could that be could also mind-link me, no need to knock. "Come in!" I made my voice loud, showing not pleased with that continuous banging on my door. When it swung open, I was stunned to see Marco rushing with an anxious look. "What's the matter? You look like you just saw a ghost!" I told him, still a bit annoyed. "Oh! Believe me, Alpha. I am more than that today!" I raised my brow at him, still baffled at his words. He took a deep sigh and looked like he was organizing his thoughts. "Have you watched the news on human territory recently?" He asked, and now he was shaking. I just chuckled at him, thinking that was just a waste of time. I leaned back against the headrest and stared deeply at him. "You banged my door hard just to ask me such useless questions. Marco, I know you better than this!" "Alpha, I am
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
