Jaque POV

.

.

A round of applause was given to us by Logan's advisers in the palace, the councils, and Alphas and Lunas in every pack. I noticed that the Alpha of Blood Moon Pack was not here, but the former Alpha and my dad were around. Where could Adam and Andrew be? I forgot to ask Kelly about it.

"Everyone, thanks for coming to our future queen's Welcome Party!" Logan began his speech, and the rest started paying attention. The orchestra stopped playing, and the silence was ear-piercing. "Tonight is very important for the kingdom. We have lost our future queen for almost a year...!"

I observed everyone in the room. Some were thrilled and grateful that I had returned. I could tell it based on their facial expressions and the bond that was linked between us all. Some were also glaring at me, eyeing me from head to foot. They were throwing daggers at me while forcing a plastered smile. I, on the other hand, couldn't care less what they thought and felt about me.

    Serena POV . . 'How can that be? She's nothing but a bastard human!' I threw away the first thing that I grabbed on the table in my room, and it smashed right into the window. "Miss Serena, calm down!" Miranda had been watching me since we both left the grand ball and strode straight to my chamber in the palace. Logan gave me the east wing to stay for as long as I wanted, and this has been my home since I was in high school. We had our own place outside of the palace, which was twenty minutes away from here. "How can I calm down, Miranda? He already marked her. That b*tch!" I picked up another vase and threw it on the floor far away from the table. The broken pot cut my fingers, and blood sprouted on the carpet. "Miss Serena, your fingers!" Miranda was about to come closer, but I raised my hand to stop her. My finger was beginning to heal when I checked it. "Tell me, Miranda. How did that b*tch still alive? I thought she was burned alive a year ago. How could that happ

    Serena POV . . "Bring me to her!" I commanded condescendingly. Miranda led the way right in an instant. "How long has she been in the kingdom?! How come I didn't know?!" All the while, I was kept blind by what was happening in our world. I knew that Logan and Jackson left the kingdom a few months ago, but the only information I got from the council was that they had to take care of something very important. "Miss Serena, do you remember when the king and his beta left a few months ago? After that, they brought home some witches in secret!" A gasp escaped from my agape mouth upon mentioning the word witches. "Some of them are in the dungeon, and this one is at the inflammatory!" Miranda turned left as she narrated the events a few months ago. "What makes this one special? Shouldn't she be in the dungeon, too?!" I was already enraged that Jaque came back breathing like she really reincarnated, and now a group of ugly witches were roaming the kingdom. Although they were in the

    Jaque POV . . "Witch Anya!" I screamed upon seeing her lifting her hand in the air. She was still shaking, and I could see that she was not totally healed yet. She had drained her powers to fight Orora last time, and that caused her to fall into a slumber for months. Now, she was using her power again to hang Serena in the air in her wolf form. Serena's wolf howled as she tried to free herself from that invisible force that was holding her, but Witch Anya's power was strong. "Aunt Anya, you are not healed yet!" It was Kelly, and she was now in her human form, naked. One of the warriors draped a cape around her shoulders to cover her body, which she nodded in appreciation. "We can take care of her!" Kelly added as she tried to come near her aunt. "Stay back!' Witch Anya uttered in a hoarse tone. Her voice was a mixture of a beast and her own. "This wolf tried to hurt my master!" Witch Anya hardened her fingers like she was gripping something, and when we saw how Serena wince

    Logan POV . . While we were searching for that unknown force that trespassed our lands, Jackson kept on looking at his watch, and I couldn't help but ask. "What's the matter?" I squinted my eyes at him. He just gave a quick glance and gazed at his watch again. Then he stood up and observed the woods. "Beta Jackson, I am asking you a question!" I was annoyed when he just ignored me. "My king!" Finally, he spoke and strode toward me. "Don't you notice something strange?!" He asked rather, making me crease my brows at him. He also glanced at our warriors, who were sniffing and searching around. Some even climbed up the trees to see further, while some ran to the deepest parts of the forest, but also aware that they could still be reached through mind-link. "What something strange are you talking about, Beta Jackson?" I questioned with a little annoyance. How come he could see something that I couldn't or feel something that I couldn't? "How long have we been searching in

    Logan POV . . "Col?!" I asked, repeating his name in my mouth. "Just Col?!" He nodded. His stern gaze was fixed on me. "What are you doing in my territory?!" I had a notion that these were the unknown forces that trespassed into our kingdom. "Just passing by. We don't know where we're going. We came from a faraway land, and we just arrived in this place two weeks ago. One of your warriors smelled our scents. We actually came in peace, but it looked like your warriors were trained to treat passersby this way... very hospitable!" His words were laced with sarcasm, but I just sneered at them. "We are just being vigilant!" I came up with a short reply, then glanced at Jackson. 'Is your watch working now?' I asked through mind-link. Jackson almost jolted in his spot when he heard my voice and then observed his watch and shook his head. 'Negative!' He responded with a snarl. 'These creatures are powerful. What are we going to do?!' 'Let me continue talking with their leader!'

    Jaque POV . . 'Wow, this is like Mission Impossible in the Werewolf World!' Kelly mind-linked me while we were stealthily passing by the corridors going to the dungeon. Guards were everywhere, standing alert with their complete armor. There were lamps attached to the brick walls to give light to this unending path. 'Yeah! The only difference is that we're like filming a horror story here!' I told her, making her chuckle at the back of my head. 'Witch Anya said she is at the far corner of the cell, and her sisters are at the opposite side!' 'Uhu! That corner. The oil Aunt Anya rubbed on my skin tells me she is in that cell!' We both glanced at a cell covered in pure bricks, and the door was a thick metal. There was no window except for a small rectangular hole, where we could just peek if we wanted to know what she was doing inside. "How can somebody live in a dungeon? I can't imagine myself in this place!" I whispered, forgetting that we were wearing an invisible cloak.

    Jaque POV . . "Who gave you stupid permission to go down the dungeon?!" Logan's voice echoed in the whole courtroom. My head was hung low, and so was Kelly's while we were standing in front of him, his beta, and that f*cking wh*re, Serena. 'What is she doing there?' I asked Shiva, who had been dormant since the dungeon scene. My eyes side glanced at the other audience, and on the right was the council. On our left was Delta Peter, Gamma Kyle, and the seer of the kingdom, whose name was Maritha. "I asked you a question!" Logan roared, making me and Kelly startled. Our shoulders bounced up as we met his gaze. In there, I saw the face of a ruler, ruthless and merciless. However, there was also something lacing behind that tyrant look. It was the sorry and pity he felt for his mate. "No one!" I answered in a low tone. "If there's no one, then how did you get this invisible cloak?" It was Serena who asked this time. "I took that cloak from my aunt when she stayed in our

    Jaque POV . . "This isn't bad!" Kelly whispered as she rummaged through the small room they brought us in. She was right. There were two small wooden beds inside and a window. Kelly ambled to the window and tiptoed to take a glimpse of the sky. "Hey, Jaque! Are we near the cliff? I can hear the sound of water!" I also walked to the window and checked it myself. "I think we are. The breeze is different here. It's stronger and cooler!" I told her. I went back to one of the beds and sat on the edge. This cell reminded me of my old bedroom at the Davis household. It's almost the same as this, including the bed. There was a small bathroom at the corner and a separate toilet. I thought prisoners' rooms were horrible. However, this one didn't even look like one. The wall was even painted in white, and the beddings were neatly folded on the bed. "It's like we're just having a small vacation. Did your mate arrange this?" I thought he did. I could see from his look at the courtroom ea

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
