Bryson’s POV

I looked at the woman who was taking steps away from me and wondered why I was frozen in my spot. The pain was still cursing through my body, and yet I felt so numb as I stared at her retreating figure.

Why was I feeling affected?

My eyes flickered when I saw Elena’s footsteps halting midway, but then my heart immediately tingled with unexplainable emotions when she continued walking until she vanished from my sight.

My heart cramped in pain again, almost making me crawl if it weren’t for Glenda, who hastily supported me.

“Bryson, are you okay?” Glenda asked, but I kept silent.

‘No, I’m not,’ I thought as I pushed her away and went back to my study room in hopes of relaxing.

“Here, drink this, Alpha. The pain should subside and be more bearable in a few minutes.” One of the pack doctors gave me a potion, which I immediately gulped down.

The drink burnt through my throat, but it was incomparable to the burn and pain the mate rejection had brought my body.

    Elena’s POV“Home sweet home,” I commented as I got out of the car. I stood in front of the massive steel gates covered with vines and dust, a vivid symbol of how long I’ve been gone.I looked up at the sky and closed my eyes, feeling the cold breeze brush against my skin, and the familiar scent of the pine woods from the forest filled my nose.I miss this place.The first place I stopped by was the place where my family was buried. One after another, I placed flowers on their graveyards that surprisingly looked clean.“Whose there?” I shouted in alertness as I stood up and looked around.I couldn’t be wrong. I’m pretty sure someone was staring at me. Squinting my eyes, I observed every blow of wind, every movement of grasses and trees, and every sound in the surroundings.Shifting, I looked at the bushes not so far from me. “Come out! Now!”My eyes widened.“She’s just a child…” Ava uttered in shock.The little girl looked at me cluelessly, but her eyes were filled with fear. She kep

    Elena’s POV“What did you say?” I furrowed my brows and looked at him calculatedly.My heart pounded loudly in my chest when he said that, but those were the kind of words that shouldn’t be said so quickly. “Jayden, this is not a small accusation. You shouldn’t be saying this like this recklessly.”Unfazed, he stood up straight and confidently shook his head, explaining, “I’m not, Alpha Elena. I’ve been thinking about it, and after reminiscing about the past, I can’t help but think there’s more to what we know.”The past? What made him think so?I leaned back on my chair and gave him my full attention. “Elaborate.”“When your father, Alpha Daco, and your brothers successfully won the battle against the rogues, the Rogues didn’t attack us for revenge. Why wait for a year before they attacked us?”I remembered that. For decades, the Rogues and the kingdom had been fighting at the border to claim the Withered Hinterland, which was rich in Blood Cress and Mountain Mace—the golden herbs fo

    Elena’s POVWith the printed copy of the encrypted file from the flash drive in my hand, I entered and was guided by the palace guards inside the King’s office. “This way…”“Elena, you’ve visited again.” King Desmond delightedly greeted me as he stood up from his seat and gestured me towards one of the sofas while one of his servants keenly served me a cup of tea.Wasting no time, I handed the papers to him, still breathing heavily from the anxiety surging in me. “King Desmond, I have to talk to you about something.”“That’s a lemon tea, it will help you feel better. You look a bit anxious. Are you upset about Bryson and Glenda’s upcoming wedding?”I looked at him in surprise. Wedding? So, they still manage to go through with it.I observed my emotions, but I didn’t feel anything. Hence, I shook my head and replied with a smile. “He and I were done. I don’t care about his affairs anymore.”He stared at me for a while, probably seeing through my eyes if what I was saying was true, befo

    Elena’s POVAs soon as I arrived back in the Ironpaw Pack, I hurried back to my room and started packing clothes and a small ration of food.When I got down, I bumped into Jayden, who was carrying logs he had cleaned up from the front yard on his shoulder and had hastily put them down. He looked at me from head to toe before his eyes glinted with realization.“Alpha Elena, are you leaving?” Panic was evident in his voice.“You scared him,” Ava joked.Jayden probably thought I’d leave the pack again.Tapping his shoulders, I assured him, “Don’t worry, I just have important matters to attend to. While I’m away, adhere to the restoration plans I gave you.”He wiped his sweat with the towel hanging from his pants pocket and asked concerningly, “Do you need help? I’ll go with you.”Shaking my head, I replied. “No need. I’ll be back soon.”After I gave him some reminders, I left the pack from the backyard and shifted to my massive black wolf, but all my paws had white furs.I bit on my bag

    Elena’s POVMy heart was pounding fast and loud, so much so that it almost felt like it would burst out of my chest any second.His hazel eyes stared down at my brown eyes, almost capturing my soul in the process, and melting my strength made my legs feel weak.Oh, damn, how could he have this much effect on me?He tilted his head and looked at me seriously as he spoke in his deep voice, “Elena Dooley. This is the battlefield, it’s no place for you.”My breathing hitched. I knew that I wasn’t an official warrior despite my background as a Custodes apprentice, but still, the information I have worth every hassle.I stared at his face, which was so familiar and yet so different from how I first saw him at the kingdom’s palace.His sharp jaws were now covered with a long beard, and I could barely see his lips. There’s a gaze on the side of his cheek near his temple, and his hair is tied in the back of his head with a cut fabric.But despite the change in his appearance, his godly face co

    Elena’s POVStaring at his mesmerizing eyes took my breath away, especially considering how close we were to each other right now.As if he knew his effect on me, he let out a smug smirk before he sat back down from his seat and pushed a cup of tea toward me. “Here, this will relax your nerves.”Finally, I could breathe, but I looked at him calculatively as I felt his words had two meanings.Shaking those thoughts away, I accepted it. “Thank you, Prince Deacon.”I lifted it to my lips and let the correct temperature of the tea and tasted its fresh but sweet and sour taste lingered on my tongue while I watched his turn into complete blackness.He’s mind-linking someone.Curious, I opened my link as well and listened.“Prepare some food and send it to my barrack.”My brows furrowed in both confusion and shock as I placed down my half-finished tea.When his eyes turned back to its beautiful, mesmerizing hazel eyes, I asked, “Are you not going to ask for the King’s reinforcement?

    Elena’s POVI looked at him sheepishly and just laughed my embarrassment off, hoping he’d forget about this soon enough.Just in time, though, one of the warriors came with a wooden basket filled with food and placed it down on the table.“Do you need anything else, Prince?” he asked as he put two canteen bottles of water in front of us.“No,” he simply replied and raised his hand as a gesture that he could leave.The warrior gave us a small bow before he turned and left.“Do you eat this kind of food?” he asked while unpacking the things from the basket.Leaning in, I took a closer look, and a smile formed on my lips as I saw the familiar delectable foods especially made for battles for both convenience and nutrients.There were four kinds of MRE in there, which was an abbreviation for Meal Ready-to-Eat foods. Basically, it’s a small pouch containing one meal. If you dip it in water, the self-heating pad inside it will activate, and it will cook by itself within minutes.And voila, t

    Elena’s POVI swallowed, feeling overwhelmed by the dominating demeanor radiating all over him, proving that he was the Prince and the god of war that everyone feared to be an enemy of.He was towering over me. His pupils dilated in anger, and fire seemingly glowed beneath its dimness, showing the built-up fury within him while the veins on his neck protruded.I’m so dead.Chill cursed through my every vein as I suddenly felt so small in front of him. I leaned as far back as I could and was even having difficulty looking straight into his eyes.Damn! I’m an Alpha and a newly appointed Princess; I couldn’t believe I could be subdued so much like this by his demeanor.“As a Luna, did you even think twice before you impulsively did this?” he started, but I only kept quiet, supposed by his anger.I think it would be best to let him calm down a bit first before I reason with him.He tapped his index fingertip on the table while sending blazing fire of gaze my way, continuing with his scold

She tilted her head and stared at me, studying me. “That’s… far from many reasons I expected for your visit.”My hands clasped tighter, building up my courage, and I tried to sustain my calmness.Hundreds of battles. Liters of blood. Countless dead bodies had come my way, but I had never felt as nervous as I was now, sitting opposite the woman I’ve always looked forward to marrying while she studied my every movement.Taking deep breaths, I pulled myself together and tried to speak in a calm and gentle tone, not wanting to scare her off.“The Lycan King, my brother, has given you three months to choose a husband.” I stared cautiously, watching her every reaction.When she didn’t say anything and her face remained blank of emotions, I continued, “

    Deacon’s POVNo one could possibly imagine how hard I tried to hide my fast beating heart from the excitement I felt the moment I locked eyes with Elena and found her looking at me with so much admiration.I woke up early and did my best to look like the version of me she hadn’t seen yet, the prince. And to say that I was satisfied with how she reacted was beyond words. Needless to say, I could proudly state that the time I spent making sure I look my best was all worth it.She tried to play it cool, and believe me when I say that she wasn’t the only one because it’s taking every bit of my control not to stride toward her and pull her into my arms.Especially when she’s out of her military attire and back to being the princess that she was, she’s wearing a strapless, deep blue, flowy dress that fell about an inch or two below her knee paired with a white long sleeve blazer where the body part only lands until her breast line. Was it called a crop top or something?Whatever it was call

    Elena’s POV“You’ve been pacing all morning, Princess Elena.”Zara’s words brought me out from my own thoughts while I paced around. Halting by the window, I crossed my arms after opening it to let the morning breeze and sunlight calm my nerves.Glancing at Zara, who was arranging the flowers on the vase on the living room table, she smirked at me and teasingly noted, “It’s rare for me to see you this anxious. Is it because Prince Deacon is coming?”Trying hard to hide my inner feelings and the turmoil I’m having in my mind, I scoffed and turned away to face outside, pretending to admire the lawn. “Anxious? Hardly.” I let out a fake laugh, which sounded more like a terrible scoff. Clearing my throat to save myself from self-humiliation, I added, “I’m just… curious.”Last night, at a late time, one of his personal messengers came in the pack and informed that he’d be visiting the pack first thing in the morning and asked for my presence. The thing was, he didn’t specify why he was com

    Deacon’s POV“What do you mean? What did you get?” I asked with full attention. I even motioned for him to sit down as I thought this would be a long talk.Abiding by my command, he sat down and rested his one arm on the table, looking worried and completely at ease.This time, he wasn’t merely talking as my Beta, but as my best friend. “I think the King’s true intention behind this marriage with Princess Elena isn’t as easy as it seems. I think he wants to use her as leverage against you.”My brows furrowed, and my body stiffened. Gazing at him sharply, I coldly said, “Explain.”He shrugged his shoulders. “I mean, everyone close to you with an eye could see that you got a thing for Pricness Elena. Though no one could probably tell how deep it was, I think the King knows as well. And as you may know, Princess Elena is no ordinary woman.”I leaned back in my seat as I considered his words. What he said actually made sense, especially thinking back on the King’s actions and double-meani

    Deacon’s POVSeating at my desk , surrounded with a mountain pile of papers, the weight of the day’s reports started pressing down on me.Days like here were the reason why I preferred being on the battlefield and a general, than being on the palace working through paperworks. Not only did I had to work on reports about happening in the kingdom as a prince, but I also had to review the strategies, supplies, and safety protocols aroudn the entire kingdom as a general.I knew it’s a bit ironic to wish to be in a war, considering the lives taken from it…Thinking about that, I sighed and went back to focusing on the reports, knowing that enduring reading through these files of words and working my hands out for signatures were much better than attending a warrior’s wake.I was in the middle of reviewing the safety protocols at the border when a knock came in, which brought a control smile on my lips.“That means break,” I thought to myself.“Come in,” I ordered as I leaned back on my sea

Did you forget that she’s the one who had to endure your son’s betrayal? Not to mention all of your bullying?”“Damn, your Omega doesn’t really hold back,” Saige commented with pride in her voice.Completely enraged, Courtney stepped in and raised her hand, ready to throw a slap on Zara’s way. “You low-life, Omega! How dare you speak to me–”“Don’t forget where you are, Luna Courtney. This is not your pack,” Jayson stepped in and blocked Croutney’s hand while pushing Zara behind him.Jayden’s beta demeanour radiated all over him as he looked at Courtney wit

Do you hear that?”“Hear what?” I asked after I handed the things I bought from the mall to Zara.I went near to Maise to listen more carefully as did Saige, but we heard nothing.Maise looked up with a grin on her face and showed us one of her daggers. “The sound of this beautiful baby as my fingertips glided on its sharp edge.”Siage and I looked at each other before shaking our heads and sitting back down in our own seats. What did we even expect?I settled on my seat, drinking a glass of juice Zara served as soon as we arrived.

    Bryson’s POVElena… Regret? Seeing what Glenda had come to be, regret was an understatement of what I feel for losing her. And by the look of it, as much as everyone was silent, everyone in the pack felt the impact of losing her.Nodding her head with sarcasticness, Glenda continued, “Well, good luck with that! Just so you know, none of this is my fault. You’re simply choking on the consequences of the choices you’ve made!”My mother’s breathing escalated, and she clenched her chest. She looked at Glenda with wide eyes and pursed lips.“Watch your mouth!” I scolded in a low but dangerous voice as my patience finally snapped.“What? All I said is true–”Before Glenda could continue, I stood between her and my mom and, without hesitation, slapped her face hard.From the impact of my slap, her head turned to the side. She slowly turned her head to look at me with shock as the red handprint on her cheek slowly faded away.Slowly, her shock turned enraged. Her eyes turned a combination of

    Bryson’s POVAs if Glenda’s scandal wasn’t enough humiliation, my mother decided that barging in at the kingdom’s party and running her mouth wild would be a cherry on top of everything I was facing now.Frustrated, I left the kingdom and went back to the pack with her following behind me, still as frustrated as she first came to me.The irritation I was feeling was intensifying every second I heard her voice. I just got back from the war, and she wasn’t even asking how I was doing or what really happened. No… instead, her sole worry was that she had nothing to use to boast out.As soon as we got back to the pack house, she threw her bag on the couch and turned to look at Julie and me, disdainfully saying, “Where the hell is Glenda?”She raised her hand and pointed nowhere specifically, continuing, “That woman brought nothing but shame to this family!”She gritted with anger and shook her head with utmost disappointment. “After everything you’ve done and sacrificed, son… we gained no
