last update Last Updated: 2024-11-15 03:14:46

Nicolas POV

It was well past noon, and I rubbed my eyes, exhausted from not getting a single minute of sleep.

I crinkled my nose in disgust. Everywhere I went, I could still smell the stench of rogues, as if it followed me everywhere.

I was so exhausted, both mentally and physically, and I was struggling to keep my eyes open. I needed some desperate sleep after last night.

Yet, every time I closed my eyes, even for a moment, the awful assault continued to flash behind my eyes.

With a sigh, I dashed to my office, not having the patience to wait for the elevator to arrive. Ray helped me accelerate to the top floor in no time. He, too, wanted to get some rest.

Ronan sat in the lobby, waiting patiently. He knew me all too well. He knew I would come here first before returning to my quarters to get some sleep.

Ronan gave me a tired nod, which I returned, and he stood up to follow me silently to my office.

After pausing at my office door and letting out a long breath, I exhaustedly extended

    Nicolas POV"What do you mean that she is not there?" I screamed at Levi on the phone.Ronan's face turned to ash a few seconds ago, and I could see the fear in his eyes. He had given the phone to me.Levi choked, "I-I-we can find her," over the receiver. "I have searched all over for her.""When was the last time you saw her?" I paced my office as I asked."The last time I saw her, she went to her room to calm down.""And then?" My fingers around the phone went white as I snarled. The fact that I had not broken the phone while I was holding it surprised me. "Has anyone visited her? Taken her?"Was Noah responsible for this?Has he abducted her?"Her bedroom was locked from the inside," Levi clarified. "It is likely that she jumped from her window.""Remember Levi's statement that Zara would not dare do that?" Ray chipped in."If she did that, how the hell did no one notice?" I asked, disregarding what Ray had said. "Is there any other scent in her room?""No!" Levi's voice broke as h

    Nicolas POV"I am so glad you waited," Terra said with the sweetest voice. "I wanted to come and give you a personal thank you."Terra tilted her head sideways, observing the quiet Ray. He did not move. He was staring at Terra with disgust.Yet she misread the hostility as something else, which made me nauseous."Do you like what you see?" she asked. "I have ensured that every aspect of me is flawless just for you!"The dark bruises on Terra's slender body had vanished, and the cuts on her face had healed—her wolf had done her magic.Terra grinned, tossed her hair over her shoulder, and placed her hands on her hips. She was not embarrassed by her appearance; instead, she began to parade before me as though she were at a fashion show.She spun around quickly, flaunting all of her assets."This is all yours," she said, pointing to her body. "You can have a taste of me now; I would not mind, and it could be our little secret. I want to express my gratitude to you for saving me."Ray shoo

    Nicolas POV"This feels cozy, does not it?" Winking at me, Terra licked her upper lip and whispered. Upon my attack, Terra managed to miraculously shift back into a human. Ray came tumbling down on top of her, and we all ended up stuck in an old rotten tree stump tangled in some overgrowth. Now she was purposefully rubbing her nude body against mine, taking advantage of our vulnerability.Ray became agitated by the second, and I let out an embarrassed sigh inwardly. When he growled at her to stop rubbing her body against him, she became even more determined to do so."I think Alpha Nicholas had enough of your childish games," Ronan said, drawing nearer. "Is it not evident from his growl how irritated he is?""Irritated? That sounded more like a purr than a growl," Terra remarked as she extended her hand to caress Ray's head.Ray growled, but Terra simply winked at him and withdrew her hand.Ray moved his massive body uncomfortably, attempting to put distance between Terra's and his bo

    Nicolas POV"Where are you going?" I inquired as Ray abruptly veered off course and sprinted past the cave. "The cave is just there!""The lake," he replied, "we can't go look for Zara smelling like Terra. She would be furious, and I don't want her mad at us."I acknowledged Ray's point and nodded in agreement, but it would cause us to fall further behind schedule.Dammit! Why would Zara decide to run away at a time like this? Couldn't she just stay put?When the lake finally appeared, the sight of its pristine blue water was mesmerizing. At least the cave was not too far away.Ray always loved water, and he crashed into it, making a huge wave.I let him run and play in the water for a minute so he could enjoy the cool water."Feeling better?" I asked after he returned to shore."Yeah," he answered. "We also smell a lot better."Ray shook his fur to remove the water, then scampered back toward the cave. It appeared as if the water had carried away all of his troubles during those flee

    Zara's POVMy entire body was burning, and it had spread like wildfire. I was in so much pain that I was having trouble breathing and moving.My frantic screams had long since subsided, and I was now barely conscious."Oh, Goddess, Zara!" A familiar voice chimed in my ears. "What have you done to yourself?!"I could hear the worry in his voice, but I could not tell who it was. My eyes were full of tears, making it difficult to see him.Perhaps it was my dad? Did he find me?"Before the goddess punishes me for neglecting you, we had better get you inside," he murmured to himself. "I can't believe you would do this to yourself! If the goddess sees you in this state, what will she say?"With a sigh, strong arms scooped me up from the cave floor. He stroked my hair tenderly while carefully pressing my head against his chest."Everything is going to be alright," he muttered, his heartbeat lulling me to sleep. "I will look after you."His words contained a promise that I could not ignore.H

    Nicolas POV The moment I saw Zara, the anxiety from just a few minutes before vanished."Mate!" The single word escaped my lips, and it felt great to do so.Zara stared at me in confusion, not knowing how to respond.Was she scared of Ray being in control?There was nothing else for me to do. Her scent was so powerful that it led me right to her.Slowly, Zara rose from the bed and approached. She did not know what to do."Ray," she uttered in a tremulous voice. "Return control to Alpha Nicolas, please.""Are you sure?" he asked. "Neither of us thinks that is a good idea."She recoiled in surprise."Why?" Her voice cracked as she asked."Because he would not have self-control around you," Ray answered.Zara's brows furrowed in perplexity. Has she not figured it out yet?"How come?" She looked into Ray's eyes and asked.I sighed.When our mates went into heat, it was usually our wolves who went crazy. Only the Goddess knows why, but it felt like Ray and my rolls were switched around wh

Have I done something wrong?I knew I would eventually go into heat, but what caused it? I was fairly certain that we only went into heat when we were marked... or...Slowly, my eyes shifted to Kaya. She appeared rather guilty."Is this your doing?" I asked.She shook her head hastily."So why do you look so guilty?" I asked."It was bound to happen," Kaya said, as if it were nothing. "You two have been taunting the bond for a while now. The fact that it did not occur sooner shocked me.""Really, Kaya?" I lost my temper. "You were aware that this would occur, yet you remained silent about it! Why didn't you just tell me? Now look at us!""I only figured it out this morning," she whispered in defense."You what!? You knew! And you failed to warn me!" I snarled. "If someone had scented my heat, what would you have done?""Well, no one did," she said w

I turned around to see him standing a short distance behind us."Only a true royal can light up a temple like that!" Drawing nearer, he went on."I do not understand," I murmured, cocking my head to the side and staring at him in confusion as he halted.Is he completely insane?I am not a member of the royal family.Beta John's behavior was increasingly deviating from my expectations, which alarmed me. I didn't know what to do while I was in his presence.My heart skipped a beat and then raced in my chest as Beta John smiled at me tenderly but honestly.His smile was completely new to me. Despite his affection, I saw anguish in his eyes.

My purpose in being here was to fortify the connection and foster trust, not to fracture it."We will do it together," I said, taking her hand in mine, and I curled my fingers around her and the door handle.As she turned to face me again, Zara cocked her head back. The palpable tension in her body told me that she was anxious.Goddess, I hope that whatever is behind that door is as beneficial as what Beta John had promised."Ready?" I asked.I kissed the side of Zara's cheek as she nodded. I pushed the door open after mentally counting to three with my eyes closed.There was a brief hush as our hearts raced in our ch
