Crystal’s POV
.
.
.
Everyone left my room soon telling me that I should take a rest but taking rest was something far away from my mind because I was thinking about that unfamiliar face, Vince. I remembered what just happened before.
.
Raven black hairs. Exotic, mesmerizing eyes. He really looks like he was carved in marble. A chiseled face, with a strong jawline, and thin lips.
.
‘Who was he? What was he doing here with my family, looking torn and relieved at the same time?’ These were my first thought. He was so handsome that I just can’t take my eyes off him. I studied him further. He had circles around his eyes that seem to say that he hadn’t slept in days but still looked handsome.
.
It took me a moment to realized that I was actually attracted to him. I quickly shook my head and scolded myself for thinking like this for someone who was not my mate. Was
Crystal’s POV...Emily gave me shocked look. She took a deep breath to calm herself but I could see she had balled her fist. For a moment, I thought she was going to attack me. But she stormed out of my room. While Leo gave me a look of disapproval..“Crystal! I don’t know whether your memory would be back or not. But Vince had told us that Maya would be back soon and trust me when she will be back from her deep slumber then she will kick your ass for treating her mate like this. And I guarantee you…you would regret it.”.“Then I will take full responsibility for my actions.”, I said confidently. Dad told me about the legacy and I knew my mate would be the strongest among all, he wouldn’t be some weakling like Vince. Leo gave me a disgusting look and stood up from the chair before heading toward the door. He gave me one angry look and then slammed the door b
Vince’s POV...“It’s not a good idea for you to see her yet. She is not ready for you, man. We have to take this slowly.”, Blake said and everyone agreed to him. I would have agreed to him as well if I would have just a few days with me. I whimpered. When I squeezed my eyes shut, a lone tear slid down my cheeks. I quickly wiped it..“I…I understand.”, I whispered..“By the way, what happened to your wolf? I couldn’t get a chance to ask about him in front of Crystal.”, Her father asked..“Well, Maya would have left for forever if I wouldn’t have shared my wolf power with her. That’s why both, mine and her wolf are in deep slumber until they regain their energy because they both are extremely weak.”.“Thank you, Vince.”, Her father said. “You did so much for her and instead of
Vince’s POV...“Anyway, coming directly to the point. What do you want from me to get lost in life? My life is already complicated. I have recently lost my wolf and lost my memory. And trust me I don’t need a weakling by my side claiming me as his mate.”.“Crystal…”, I started. What was she saying? Was she rejecting me? Without her knowing me and everything that happened to us? So unfair..“I, Crystal Liam Lee Knight, the Queen of the werewolf, reject you, Vince Cornell, as my mate.”, She spa on my face. I stared at her face without any emotion. I didn’t know how to react to this fact. The pain was unbearable but I didn’t know how I was able to handle it. “What are you staring at? Accept my rejection and leave.”.I shook my head. “I don’t accept this rejection.”, I said recalling how stubborn Cry
Crystal’s POV...It has been one week since that I woke up from my deep slumber. I spend all my time reading the year ends reports from my businesses. I spent my time on the net and catch up on what happened to the world.Diana checked me and she gave a green signal of her presence in me and I think she was the reason because of whom I was healing pretty fast.Though I have lost my memory, I feel normal. I feel nothing happened at all. I still have the people I love around me. I mean yeah, everything is normal until they bring up his name. The things start to feel hazy. It feels like when I look back, a huge portion of my life is covered. I know something is there. But I don’t know what it is. And he is a big part of that missing puzzle..Everyone close to me told me that I was madly in love with him and he was my mate but how could I believe them without any proof because it was my life-changin
Vince’s POV...I was sitting on the deck of my home. After so many nights, I still felt alone, my heart was still broken and every single minute, I ached for the woman who swore to love me all her life. But she was not here anymore. The pain was ten times worse than what I felt when Rachel and Andrew betrayed me..I remembered her giggle, her smile. I remembered the way she used to pull me by my neck to kill me and the way she used to look at me. I remembered how she never gave up on me. How she waited patiently to make me realize that she was the one and the only one for me.She told me that she was not like others and would never hurt my feeling. She told me that she would never let me cry or feel miserable.But everything…everything she said was nothing but just a lie. Damn, I must be looking like shit. I haven’t had a proper night’s sleep in the last nine days. I haven’t b
Vince’s POV...Just as if on cue, Hailey came running toward me and threw herself in my arms. I looked behind and found Xander. They were on honeymoon for one month and how come they are here just after fourteen days?.“You okay? When Emma told me, what had happened in these past few days I came here for you?”, She asked with concern, still holding me close. Thankfully, Xander and wolf knew about this situation otherwise he would have kicked my ass for letting his mate hug me.She touched my cheek and looked at me. She gave a warm smile that wanted me to cry a little more..“And you are?”, Crystal asked Hailey, narrowing her eyes and watching us. Right! She forgot everything, never met me, nor Hailey. While Hailey’s eyes looking at me and then at Crystal.“Ms. Lee Knight.”, She greeted, in a cold tone. “I guess you didn’t rem
Crystal’s POV...“You did what?”, My father shouted at me when I told him that I wanted to pull out my investment from Vince’s business. “Now I have really started getting ashamed of your activity Crystal. Vince will be broken again when you do that. And that was exactly the reason why you invested in him in the first place! You wanted him to rise above all. You wanted him to help, but he wanted no help from you! So, you devised a way to trick him into accepting this offer…”, He said and would have given me more lecture on it if I would have stopped him in between.“Dad, you know nothing. Do you know he had succeeded in manipulating me and had become the fifty percent owner of everything I owned? But thankfully, I just received a message from his lawyer that Vince will return me everything but I couldn’t trust him until I will have everything which I own in my
Crystal’s POV . . . I couldn’t control myself anymore. I couldn’t deny my attraction toward him. I gave up fighting. I gave in. I pulled him into my arms and kissed him thoroughly. A wave of spark hit my body, and I heard her voice again. . ‘MATE’, Maya howled in happiness. When did she come? Was she waiting for something like this to happen? I still do not remember anything, but now I could understand my undying attraction toward him. That’s because he was my mate for real. The moment he walked into the palace; his perfume smell captured my sense. If I close my eyes, I could swear that I know that scent well. But when I looked at him, I can’t place her. I listened to everything he said and I could almost say it was familiar. Now, everything makes sense. I could smell his pain. And for the life of me, I wanted to take his pain away! I felt guilty for realizing that I was the reason behind it. I
Crystal's POV...Vince smiled at me and leaned forward to give me a thorough kiss on the lips. I kissed him back. Then he released my hands and cupped my face between his palms.."You don't know how proud I am right now,", He said. "Hearing you calling out for my name repeatedly, when a potential sexy stripper is about to pleasure you...is just too heartwarming for me."."By the way what are you doing here?", I asked him. "It's your stag party, right?".He smiled. "Well...the bachelor usually gets laid on his stag party. But neither I was interested in bedding another woman nor was I a bachelor anymore. And I will kill any other man who lays a finger on you. So...why don't I spend my night with my wife, sleeping next to my love? Isn't our problem is solved?".I giggled. "Sounds good to me." Then I pushed him on his back so that he was sitting on the bed and then I mounted him. "You're entitled to a lap dance. How about I ma
Vince's POV..."No, I won't tell you the expenses of the wedding. I will share this with Grandpa only.", Keith said to which I glared at him. "Grandpa said that if I will share the budget of the wedding with you then you would alter few things for cost-cutting and I don't want to do that.", I seriously wanted to argue with my son but then Crystal's father was in his favor and I knew I couldn't do a thing against him. .A few days before the wedding, all my married friends were planning my bachelor's party but I was least interested in it due you know why? Because I was in no mood to die now. I still remembered Crystal's reaction when she had thought that I was cheating on her. I knew she trusts me but a part of her always get nervous when things come to another female that's why I had another plan.."Hey...", Crystal hugged me when I was packing my stuff along with all my clothes for all my boys. "What are you doing?"
10 Years Later.No One's POV..."What do you think about the idea which kids have suggested? I mean about celebrating our 10th wedding anniversary for real with all the functions and rituals.", Crystal asked to which Vince laughed. Moon Goddess, their pups. They wanted to attend Vince and Crystal's wedding and they are angry over the fact that Vince and Crystal didn't invite them to their wedding.."Well? What can I say if they want to attend our wedding.", Vince said between my laugh. "I can already say that your boys are going to give me hard time. They are no less than my father-in-law."."Same goes with your princesses. They act like my mother in law.", Crystal added and giggled at their behavior. She used her power to see what their pups were actually doing and smiled when they saw them sleeping peacefully. By Moon Goddess grace, they were now the parents of five pups, thr
Crystal's POV...Though I was fuming in anger deep down I knew that I was nervous and scared just like other girls would have been if they would be at my place.'Vince would never do this to me! I believe in him, I believe in us.', I thought..'Exactly. He might have planned something for us otherwise he wouldn't carelessly leave this note for us to find, right?', Maya reasoned out. Whatever was going on, I intended to find out before I lose my mind. I tried to mind-linked him but it was blocked. I took my phone and dialed his number but his number was off. I tried about a few more times just in case he just lost signal but I was so wrong. His number was still off.I took a short breath to calm myself because my Alpha Aura was scaring everyone around me. I asked Asher, his personal assistant about him.."Where's Vince?"."Ah...", He took a moment to answer. "He went
Crystal's POV..."What happened?", Vince asked in confusion to which I slapped on her forehead lightly and made him look toward the pups.."They are hungry. Damn it, I am so excited to know them personally.", I muttered and asked him to bring all the three pups to me. Vince sighed and nodded. I knew sooner or later he was going to ask about the Kidnapper and I had no fucking idea how will I reveal his mother to him. It would break his heart. Also, with my new powers, I highly doubt that Jezebeth will think to kidnap me again.But as of now, I have to divert this topic. I would not talk about it with Vince until I was ready...After an hour,."Do you know because of mate bond I can feel your unsaid words as well?", Vince muttered in my ear while I was trying to fake sleep. I opened my eyes and gave a small smile to Vince. He didn't waste a second and grabbed me in his arms, kissing me on my forehead.
Vince's POV...Now everyone would think that Azazel was the still heartless monster but only we knew that Crystal was stabbed with the same dragger, having our blood on its tips, which means he had started the blood soul match.This procedure was similar to Marking Ceremony in werewolves except for the fact the delay in this procedure could be the reason for Crystal's death..I looked at Crystal who was groaning in pain for real.I am sorry...I am so sorry, Crystal..
Vince's POV...'Where are we?', I heard Remus's voice when we found ourselves in an unknown place. I adjusted my eyes as per the light..'Spirit world.', Azazel answered. 'All the souls come here after their death. Then, the souls are taken to deities, heaven or hell as per their word.'.'This place is so calm.'.'Yeah. The perfect example of silence before the storm. Our presence has awakened many evil spirits who will soon try to attack us.', While they were busy in their chit-chat. I closed my eyes and tried to detect Crystal's presence, along with my pups, and there they were.."Mate.", Before I would be knowing I teleported myself near Crystal. There she was hiding behind the tree. I was about to touch her shoulder when Remus growled and moved back. I couldn't understand his reason to do so until I saw the face of the Zombie in Crysta
Crystal's POV...She was practically waiting for the moment when Azazel's angel powers will get activated. Well, what else to say? She was not alone in everything which happened until now. Even Seraphim was helping her in this. Why? He wants to take revenge on Azazel for killing Paschar. I couldn't just sit back and let all of this happen. I couldn't let both of them harm the man that I love..I looked at my surroundings and felt like vomiting seeing so many dead bodies near me. My gaze went back to Jezebeth who was cruelly eating human flesh. I wanted to puke observing that. I quickly averted my gaze from there and looked down at my tied hands. I tried to escape this multiple times but she had used some kind of spell because of which I was greeted by the only failure..I sighed and moved my head back, thinking about my babies. 'I promise, I won't let anyone harm you. I am sure your father would be finding a way back
Vince's POV...Something was not right. I could feel that. I quickly tried to contact Maya but I couldn't reach her. I was in the mid of a conversation with my mother when I stood abruptly to leave.."Vince? What happened, Son?", My mother asked but I didn't even waste my time in answering her question and teleported myself back to Crystal's room but there was no sight of Crystal in the room. Not to forget even all the guards were already dead. Hold on, not all. I saw one guard hiding under the table.."Where is she?", I asked hoarsely after pulling him out. Something terrible had happened just like I had thought and my heart was beating ferociously. I needed to get to her as soon as possible and I needed to make sure that Crystal and my pups were safe and that nothing had happened. On the top, both Remus and Azazel were getting crazy in Crystal's absence. "Where is my mate?", I roared, shaking the whole suite..
