Chapter 13Nova’s pov I had gotten a seamstress to sew many dresses for me before we came for the festival. I wanted dresses that would capture men’s attention, something that would make them more drawn to me. I knew the philosophy of men, they were quick to fall for traps. You just had to create a trap that would make them fall. I knew about all of this and had researched it. I knew before coming to try the festival that Hayden liked confident and feisty women. He hated people that were too meek, maybe that was why he rejected me in the first place. I was so innocent when I came to him years ago but now I was the opposite. I was more dangerous than him because he would not even realize it till I struck. I was on that path already. As I walked into the ballroom, everyone’s eyes were on me. I knew my seamstress did a good job. I had specifically told her to use the most expensive fabrics, I wanted something that screamed luxury. Something enticing, a dress capable of stealing t
Chapter 14Nova’s pov A figure stepped out of the shadows, its presence would never be known by anyone as it had perfectly hidden in the shadows. Several persons have passed by the figure not even realizing there was someone there. It wasn't until I was coming before it showed itself. These figures were everywhere, planted in every nook and crook where secrets were said. The figure would collect those secrets and report them to me because it was what I needed. No one here was innocent. They all had a hand in the massacre of death that happened seven years ago. “What news do you have for me,” I asked through the mind link. We do not converse outwardly, there is a saying that walls have ears. We had made ourselves the walls that had ears so we were not falling for something like that again. Our conversations were always as coded as they could. No one could truly understand it except they were very powerful. I had made sure this job was going to be perfect. It was not my fault an
Chapter 15Hayden’s pov I paced around the room trying to calm my wolf. If it was left to my wolf, I would have carried her out of the ballroom. Our dance was so perfect. I had forgotten about the whole world as we danced together. It wasn't until we finished the dance that I remembered we had an audience. They could die for all I care. I forgot all about my worries. All the pain that I had to carry about, I forgot about everything. It was just too perfect. I honestly don't know how to explain how I felt for Doxy. No matter how much I tried not to think about her, she always clouded my head and mind since she got here a few days ago. Mason does not deserve her, he is not capable of satisfying her needs. He was far too meek for my liking, she on the other hand looked like someone who likes it wild. She fit into the description of the women I like, she was perfect for me. I would do anything to have her, or maybe after tonight, she would finally be away from my mind. All I knew
Chapter 16Nova’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 "Halt! Who are you?!" I peeked out of the window. The gates of Moonlight Grove stood ahead of my caravan. Behind us were several other Caravans from other packs. Two guards were staring up at her with fierce gazes. A hand squeezed mine and I glanced up to see Mason, my Beta, walk towards the door of the carriage. "Who are you?!" "I am Mason, Alpha of the Snowcap pack." He told the guards. Gasps exploded around us and I smirked. Good. Just the reaction I was expecting. "S-Snowcap?" The guard stuttered. "Impossible!" His fellow guard said. "Weren't they wiped out years ago?" My jaw clenched and I felt my wolf roar in anger. Quiet down Frost. "As you can see, we are alive," Mason said, keeping his voice monotone. "And here for the Howl Gathering festival." The murmurs around us increased. The Snowcap pack had gone into extinction seven years ago. At least that was what everyone thought had happened. Well, they weren't extinct. We were back. I was back. A

Chapter 12 Nova’s povAs Mason’s lips fanned my neck, my body burned with need. Not for Mason. Goddess no, there was just one man who I wished was here right now. I hated his guts, but I couldn't hate that perfect muscular body. All I could think of was Hayden’s lips on mine. His strong hands engulfed my whole body. I was still so aroused by our earlier contact. This was too much. I had a lot of emotions. I know for a fact that I despised Hayden. He rejected me years ago and even now that I was back, he could not recognize me as his mate. Was I too unpleasant to him that he could not even recognize me? That he could forget me so easily? I did not want to be aroused by Hayden but I was.Hell, I was. I wanted to be pinned against the wall. I wanted to rile him up. To watch his eyes narrow every time I taunted him, to taste those firm lips. Run my hands over his chest and that magnificent tool between his legs. I wanted him to touch me, take me. Mercilessly.Unfair. I
Chapter 11Nova’s POV Mason stared at me in shock, probably thinking I was a Maniac. I honestly could not blame him. I laughed at the look on his face and wiggled my fingers before him. "See? Good as new. But the commander of death would not be the same. You know why?" "Nova," Mason sighed. There was pity in his eyes and it irked me. I had seen the same pity on several faces that night. As I held on to my father's lifeless body, screaming for help, begging for death. No one could truly understand that pain. Not Mason. Not Hayden. Not even the goddess herself. “Look at me, Mason," I pouted. "Should I just finish him off? It'll work if I use it, you know it will." But killing him like that would never satisfy me. I had to make sure he died, a slow and painful one, with the truth spilling from his lips as I watched him suffer in pain while he confessed his sins. Only then, would I ever find peace. “No," Mason muttered. "We still have not found out how your father
