Chapter 16

Nova’s pov

I had taken off my cloak and was heading back to the tavern. I could not hide my excitement, there were a lot of reasons for me to be happy.

When all the things you have planned for the last seven years start falling into place then tell me if you would not be happy. I was more than happy, after all of this I would finally be happy. I would search for my happiness far away from all of these people.

My conversation with my group earlier on still replayed in my mind, everything was going as planned. There were no interruptions of any sort.

It was funny that no one had suspected a foul play. The truth was going to be out, I eoiod take my revenge. My father would finally be happy wherever he was.

When my father had just been killed, I had countless nightmares. My father was somewhere, he roamed about unhappy. When I asked him what was wrong, he said he was unhappy.

He was unhappy that his murderers were walking around happily, it was then that I vouched to g

    Chapter 17Hayden’s pov I had been sitting here for more than an hour, after my conversation with Alpha Fenrir that had turned sour he left. The air changed after he left, my anger was replaced with my unsatisfying hunger for Doxy. It was definitely unsatisfying. I do not think I would ever be satisfied with her body. It had been long since I had gone crazy for a girl this way. Since I had met my mate and even when I met my mate I was able to control it. I could not control how I felt for Doxy. It was unexplainable. Even my wolf was attracted to her. She was supposed to be here by now, it has been hours since our dance. I sipped on my wine, trying to control my raging wolf. If I had given my will a chance then he would have been searching frantically for her but I was not going to do that. I was still an Alpha, the commander of death. No woman would make me go crazy to such an extent. I just had to wait for her.

    Chapter 18Nova’s povThe sounds of birds outside created a soothing melody, a perfect backdrop for their intimate encounter. The room was bathed in warm, golden light, casting a sensual glow on their entwined figures.My hands traced the outlines of Hayden’s chest, my touch sending shivers down his spine. His eyes locked onto mine, burning with desire.The desire was clear in his eyes, it felt like I was the only woman on earth. The spotlight was on me and I loved it. This was how it was supposed to be as mates but things had turned sideways. My wolf was joyous, she was a whore. My wolf was screaming, been touched by her mate after all these years. I craved Hayden’s touch since we had gotten here and I was finally getting it. Trust me, it felt beautiful. The way he had dropped me softly on the mattress. "Your touch sets my soul on fire," He whispered, his breath caressing my skin.I was not going to take hi

    Chapter 19Hayden’s povI did not know how I managed to walk out of her sight. I could barely see her as I wriggled in pain. I did not know what to say or think, I had been fooled!I, the commander of death!Was I that stupid, how did I not notice that she was my mate? All these while, my past was back to haunt me. My head was banging hard, but I managed to walk away not knowing my destination. I just needed to be far away from her. I felt stupid, I had been ogling after my mate that I rejected years ago and I did not even know. No wonder, I could not understand why my wolf was attracted to her. The way it got excited whenever she was close by, I had ignored all those signs. When I rejected her, I thought I had broken all connections with her. That was the reason why I could not recognize that she was still my mate but I still had immense feelings for her. My life had suddenly turned sideways, I knew sh

    Nova’s pov I was angry for several reasons as I watched my supposed mate walk away from me. I was angry that after all these years he still did not want to have anything to do with me. I was angry that he never made any effort to search for me after all these years and now that I took the first step he was still going to discard me. I was angry that I was allowing my father’s murderer to walk away from me when I had the chance to kill him. I was angry that I still felt something for this man despite all the pain he was causing me!Why?!Why do things like this happen to people? Why could this stupid feeling not just end, I wanted to rush towards him and kill him for good. The way he had looked at me when he pinned me on the tree, there was anger and resentment in his eyes. He did not even want to see me, I was his mate for goddess sake!This yearning, burn, craving whatever name you want to call it, was he not feeling it also?Was I the only one at the receiving end?Was there

    Mason’s povI was alert mainly because I was worried for Nova. She had changed since we walked into this grounds, I understood her fear but she had to let me in. This was not how things used to be with us. Now she seemed more scary. There was just something about her that was off. It was quite different from the Nova I knew. The Nova I knew usually laughed heartily, not a sly smile. I hated how Hayden still affected her, he was controlling her. Our earlier conversation still played in my mind. Maybe she had rejected me now but I was still going to make her mine. No one deserves Nove except myself, I stayed with her all through her broken phase. Hayden was the cause of her breakdown. He had caused her so much pain that he did not even deserve to be with her. He killed her father and rejected her. That man was heartless. I will protect her from that beast, he never loved her despite her being his mate. I tried talking her out of following him but she did not listen. Her emotion

    Mason’s povI kept lurking around, following Elena. She walked towards the building and started climbing the stairs. I was finding it hard to keep up with her, as I followed her I kept wondering where she was heading to. Elena had this aura around her that made me suspicious. Everything about her was just confusing. It was hard for someone to know what she truly felt. I always find her to be very sneaky and that was why I had this dislike towards her. She had this personality that did not feel real. The way she always laughs like she truly did not mean it. I knew she was deceptive, she was quick to catch on people's feelings and that was why I was wary of her. As it is, she knows Nova is the true Alpha and not myself. Besides that, she was nice and friendly. The way she looked very shocked when the messenger reported to her. My mind told me whatever was going on was something that involved us. Nova has a mission and she is seriously working on it. I was not shocked anyway, H

    Nova’s pov I felt safe in Mason’s arms. He was the brother I always craved for, everything about him was comforting. I felt bad for snapping at him earlier, I should not have done that. Goddess help me. I was not in control of my emotions anymore, since we got here everything had turned different. Everyone walking in this vicinity was crazy, we were all just pretending like everything was fine! Hell, nothing was fine. I felt pity for my father. Such a calm soul, yet he had to endure these crazy people every year. After my revenge, I would never step foot into this place again. I don’t care about any annual festival, it was all pretense and disguise for all sorts of plots. He was only helping me and was even trying his best. When I looked at him, I wanted to apologize but he nodded his head to tell me not to bother. After staying for a while, I decided to address the reason why we were here. The day of the battle was drawing closer, I refused to allow what had happened today t

    Hayden's POV "Nova," It was supposed to sound like a warning. She shouldn't be in here. And she should not have seen Elena dammit. The whole point of seven years ago was to make sure this never happened. And yet it was. In ways I never expected. In ways that had me mesmerized. The rope holding up Nova's dress gives out and the soft fabric slides down delectable body, revealing a set of breasts that I had seen before. Beautiful perky ones that haunted my dreams. Now I knew why I yearned for her like a fool. She was my mate. Nova. Nova Frost. Knowing did not make the yearning any better. It only rubbed in my face the fact that I could have her years ago; I could have tasted her, be drunk on her. And now as penance, she tormented me. When I tore my gaze from her breasts to her face, she had a smirk playing on her lips. "Like what you see, commander of death?" "Nova, you need to leave," Especially when the only barrier between her naked body and my mad desire

    Nova's POV"No," I screamed. I pushed Orion out of my way and Amelia did the same, we stood watching as the gemstone got activated. My heartbeats irregularly as I watched the bright light blocking us from seeing Hayden. It was so bright that Orion and Amelia had to look away unable to bear it.The light shone right at me but I didn't move, I knew there was nothing more I could do. Still, I didn't look away. It was over.I waited until the light dimmed slowly before it went off completely, I stared at where Hayden stood earlier and to my surprise, he was standing right there. Hayden storm was standing with the gemstone still in his hand.He is alive.I shut my eyes before opening my eyes back instantly to see him still there. "Hayden," I called. He turned to face me while I stared at him shocked."Commander," Amelia called walking over to him. She hugged him instantly not minding if anyone was present. "Thank you for not leaving," She said still hugging him.I felt my wolf growled i

    Nova's POVWe didn't bother turning back. We picked our race running as far as we could. "Get them," Someone shouted after us, we got to a height and paused. We both staggered back watching the distance.We looked back to see the men after we had increased. A second look at the height, we jumped down from the height and encountered other men who stood alert. Amelia folded her fist ready to face any of them.The man's voice had gotten their attention, they stood there not ready to move out of the way, the other rushed in joining them, ready for a fight. Two men rushed at us first, the first one raised his hand to cut me with his fangs but I dodged it, giving him a cut on his neck.He attacked again with both fangs, I dodged and kicked his jaw. I gave him a spin kick sending him far away.I watched my side checking Amelia, she had pinned the other man down on his chest with her fangs. The man who seemed stronger than the others came at us at full speed.I gripped my neck trying to cho

    Nova's PovGroaning.I opened my eyes to behold complete darkness, I shut my eyes trying to recall where exactly I was. The scene of me struggling with the rogues as they pulled me out of the room earlier played in my head, I opened my eyes instantly remembering where I was.I made to stand but I stopped unable to, what was happening?I tried moving my hands too but I couldn't, my hands were tied to my back while I was made to lean against the pole it was tied to.They had brought me here after treating my wounds, I wondered what they had used on me. I had no idea how I ended up there.I made to move again. "Argh," I winced in pain hurting my ankle."Are you awake?" I heard Amelia ask. I tried to sense where the voice came from, but I knew perceiving her scent was a total no. I couldn't smell her scent as usual. "I'm here," She said and I turned to see her tied up beside me."How long have we been here?" I asked."Not too long," I nodded when she said that. I was glad I hadn't been as

    Hayden's POV"How did this happen?" Amelia asked, she faced me with her face scrunched up. "What is going on? How did-" "Looks like you've got yourself in a deep mess," Orion interrupted still laughing. He stared at me before facing Nova. "Hey, pretty how do you plan to escape this?" She smiled at him and scoffed."I don't think that has anything to do with you?" She snapped at him. I watched as she folded her fist in anger while still had a rope tied around her body. She glared at him and he stepped away from her.I felt weak again as her anger doubled. Orion nodded. "You are right, this has absolutely nothing to do with me," He walked over to me standing right in front of me. "I have more business with you," He glared. I gave him a bored look and he smirked.He does that too often. That was the only boring expression he was good at giving."Let's do that," I muttered. He nodded for his men to take Nova and Amelia out of the room, they walked over to Nova and Amelia wanting to lead

    Nova's POV"No," Amelia screamed, struggling with the rope she was tied with. I stood there startled as I watched her.Hayden didn't seem to be moved by that, he was focused on the man who was also staring at him. "How sure am I that you have a way?" He asked with his arms folded.He was really interested in the man's discussion. Was he really looking for a way to die? If I wasn't so stunned then I was dazed. Hayden Storm wanted death. The man I had spent seven years hating, was seeking death himself.What could be his reason for suddenly wanting death? Why would someone who killed my father suddenly want to die now? What really changed?I was surprised. I was beyond shocked to hear that."I, Orion, will never tell you lies," Orion said. "Telling me your name doesn't assure me that you wouldn't tell a lie," Hayden scoffed. "And why should I trust the head of a rogue?"Orion nodded. "You're right, I might be the head of a rogue but I have my pride. I won't tell you I have what I don'

    Nova's POVThey were not just rogues.They had a camp. How were they able to build such a great place without anyone noticing? It was similar to a palace but it was a small territory, it was small, compared to that of the Fangworth palace. I winced as one of them touched my wounded arm.I still couldn't understand why Hayden gave in. I couldn't process his reasons for allowing them to take us there, I believed he had a reason and for a moment I wanted to trust his action.They led us to a room which was a bit distant from the camp entrance. It was their leader's room. I looked around noticing the well decorated place, it was designed in a manner that made it look like a throne hall.There he was, seated on what I could call a throne. He was a young gorgeous man possessing a commanding presence, he sat majestically on that throne with his chiseled features illuminated by the soft light penetrating into the room.His chiseled jawline added a hint of ruggedness to his gorgeous face.

    Nova's POV"Then let's see this till the end," Amelia said as she rushed to the front, attacking the rogue. The others walked closer to us, attacking.I made to move but I staggered back. I was too weak to move. I tried to move my legs but I didn't have strength to.She was there. Nova was there with me, fighting the rogues angrily. Her anger weakened me more. I couldn't move as I watched Nova and Amelia fight tirelessly.One of them rushed to me wanting to attack but I dodged him giving him a cut on his belly with my claws. I looked back to see Amelia sending them away with her kicks, she was handling them pretty well.Nova dug in her dagger in one's belly kicking him before pinning the other with her left hand, her claws were long as she fought them relentlessly."You," Another one said, he made towards me wanting to give me a cut with his long claws but I dodged it before he could, I tore his skin with my claws sharply as I watched blood gushed out. He stood startled before falling

    NNova's POVThat was a lie.I told him that so I could follow him to wherever he was heading, I needed to know what the letter was all about, the fact that he was hiding it made me more curious.Who knows if it was related to the truth I was searching for?"Fine then," Hayden said, getting on his horse. He looked weak as he did that, maybe I was the one who saw it that way. But I could tell he wasn't strong.I thought he was heading somewhere. Why was he taking a horse when he can actually speed there? Taking a horse would slow us, was he not rushing there? He was acting strange. Too strange.For a moment I considered taking the horse but it was never a right choice. Amelia got on the horse too and I stood there watching them."Is there anything wrong?" Hayden asked, watching me from the horse he sat on. Everything was wrong. Why would he take a horse when we could use our speed, was he that tired to do that?"Nothing," I answered, getting on the horse prepared for me.It was too ea

    Nova's POVHer commander?If she referred to Hayden as her commander then she must be a member of his pack. I gasped when I realized it.He was the one who sent her to the Fangworth palace? I was saved by Hayden's person from the beginning of my mission. He rescued me too but why didn't he tell me they knew each other?"Seriously?" I asked, watching Hayden then staring back at Amelia. "Yes," She nodded, smiling. "I'm sorry I didn't inform you earlier," She added."No, I didn't ask too," I answered nodding, though I was still surprised by the whole thing.I stared at Hayden with a raised brow. He stared at me too expressionlessly, at that point I nodded understanding it. The reason Hayden followed her without any question was because he was the one who sent her to prepare a way out for him, she even prepared a horse for his journey.He was her commander. A member of the Storm pack, If she was just a member of his pack, how did they end up being that close?I raised my brow at him befo
