KAILA ASHFOLD

She walked through the castle corridor of her quarters floor with her delicate, noble gait, as her wine-colored, flowing hair cascaded down her shoulders. Her face was held high, and her shoulders were back, as though the world was beneath her. Maids stopped to bow whenever she passed.

And of course, behind her was Jeremy. They walked into her chambers. She removed her gloves and flung them into the air as she loosened her tightened corset. She walked towards her vanity desk and stared at the mirror, her cheeks aching after spending the day faking a smile at the female court.

"How dare those wretches! They still treat me like one of them!" Kaila smirked as she reminisced about the noble ladies of the Great Packs and Houses speaking to her casually despite being the king's mistress. Their subtle and indirect jabs about her chances of being nominated as Queen Consort were clear.

"I can't wait to be nominated as the Queen Consort! I'd do whatever it takes to win the tests!"

    AVA KILLIANThe gate creaked open as Ava immediately crawled out of the Iron Pit, traumatized and trembling, her silver hair wet from her sweaty scalp as it cascaded down over her face.Immediately, she got out, and the gate was dropped down and locked at once.She couldn’t believe her eyes. She was unscathed. The beasts didn’t touch a strand of her hair when she spoke to them in the ancient Lycans’ language.“The gods are by your side, Princess. The Direwolves have gone totally mad, and about twelve of our keepers have been brutally devoured. How could you have escaped this?” one of the keepers said.Ava’s heart was thudding fast, still trembling cluelessly. Why her? Why did they bring her here to test the Direwolves’ appetite?As she sat close to the rocky wall, hugging her legs while still shivering in shock, her flimsy gown was red from the devoured keeper’s blood. She raised her head to see Alpha Karl walking down the stairs.“You did this to me! Why?” Ava yelled as tears streame

    AVA KILLIANAva slightly tucked her hair behind her ear as the thought of being in the midst of these noble ladies made her heart thump fast. She wasn't allowed in court when she was a young princess, and she was never allowed to socialize with any noble ladies or attend courts and events.All she had were strict chaperones and scary orders and punishments from her father. She practically lived her life in isolation and punishment, especially her young adult years, which were all wasted as she was a slave at the monastery with mean nuns.She never had any social interactions, and the anxiety of being inferior to these highborn ladies, who were well-trained, had loving parents, and attended courts and events, intensified. Even though she was a princess who received rare and expensive things, it was only a title she never enjoyed or understood what it truly meant to be a princess.Layla noticed that Ava felt intimidated. She quickly held Ava's hand, having practically spent all her life

    AVA KILLIANHad she cut it? Ava couldn’t tell. She couldn’t breathe."Huh... You wench! You were the one!" Kaila yelled at Layla, as the other ladies squinted their brows, clueless as to why she had stopped.Layla walked towards Kaila, smirking. Anger coursed through Kaila’s veins. This wench was the one who had exchanged her meal with a bloody piglet's head and written that blackmail message."Leave her alone now!" Layla ordered, authority in her tone as a vicious smile crept across her lips. Ava immediately felt the release of Kaila’s grip on her hair. She stood up and staggered backward, trying to catch her breath.Layla walked very close to Kaila, bending slightly, her mouth near Kaila's ear. She spoke softly, barely a whisper, inaudible to anyone else."You do not want your secret revealed here, to these ladies," Layla threatened.Kaila scoffed, though her legs were frozen in place. A lowly physician had just threatened her in the midst of everyone. "How you killed your daughter

    AVA KILLIAN Standing before the mirror, whilst dressed in one of the same provocatively revealing dresses all made for Axel's unchallenged appeal, the armless upper part of the dress clinging tightly to her body and looking utterly like her second skin, accentuating her breast and exposing her cleavage, the corset sculpting her tiny and curvaceous waist. The flared part had several splits around both revealing her naked laps, it was undeniably gorgeous especially the sequined beaded gems used to lace the upper part, Ava wondered what was happening that tonight. It was quite obvious this was Axel's order, what could he want from her? Clearly, if he wants to sexually punish her she was usually dressed in flimsy and not so elegant dresses that does nothing to cover any part of her body, It was usually easy to rip apart, usually easy to bind her with its torn fabric pieces if it wasn't thorned rose stem he'd use. "What are you planning Axel?" She thought inwardly until so abrupt

THE MARRIAGE/ALLIANCES PACT The DarkSword pack is the second most powerful in the realm, just behind the BloodClaw pack, now led by Alpha Axel after the annihilation of his family. During the war, the DarkSword pack remained neutral, refusing to side with either Alpha Axel or the Mad King.

Together, they have a daughter, Ava Cole. - In addition to this, Cahir Cole of the DarkSword pack was betrothed to our female lead Ava Killian from the Royal House of Lycans, as arranged by the Mad King when she was young a

Ava cursed as she sat on the bed, Her pulse raced, not from the closeness of his body anymore, but from the humiliation pooling in her throat.Her heart ached after realization dawned on her that she was no more than a mere sex slave to him, how could she feel something for someone who hates her with every fiber of his being?she wondered why the moon goddess paired them when her life with him will be like this, knowing that he was going to reject her.Tears welled her eyes as she held tightly to her chest, and soon the door was banged open and the royal guards walked in, "follow me."

    AXEL VOSS Alpha Axel's unreadable expression turned sour, after Henri’s quiet whisper to him, lessening the intensity of the hall.Though the feast continued, The heavy doors at the far end of the hall groaned open.The room fell silent as everyone's gaze directed towards the group of figures draped in dark cloaks, as they entered uninvited. The Umbral Stalkers and Luna Sentinels— the force of the Lunar’s Covenant Faith. And the room hummed murmurs as most of them wondered why the Faith's forces are at the king's council, the faith rarely meddles with politics, except if it's blasphemy, unpunished and unforgiven sins related, Its almost as powerful as the crown itself because it is a check and balance aspect of the realm.. it regards no status, wealth or fame. Alpha Axel knows this as it is back in his pack, their faith was The Flames of the Hunt, led by ancient Hrothmir the god of justice and survival, however the both faith Lunar's Covenant led by the ancient twin deities Luna

The moment they reached Axel's chambers, Ava yanked her hand back, desperate."Don't do this! My house has served the Lunar's Covenant faithfully and if you are going to be the new Lord you have to hand me over to them!

    UNEDITED CONE BRACKENRIDGE Cole had never tasted true pain. He was the son with the perfect birthright, unscarred by curses, adored by all. He was handed everything on a gilded platter, and yet now—now—we shared a mate? The word seared my mind. My wolf clawed at the edges of my control, demanding blood, demanding dominance.But I tried harder to calm my wolf; he could rule all day and night, but this night was mine. I have to be in control of my wolf.I glanced at Vissera. She stood stiffly beside me, her head held high, a fragile thing pretending at strength. She was looking at Cole as he entered the hall. She didn’t dare look at me. She was trembling, and it wasn’t the chill of the hall that did it. It was me.I terrified her.No matter how softly I spoke, no matter how carefully I moved, my presence consumed the air around her like smoke. She was suffocating. The fragile bond between us hummed with fear, and that fear only fuelled my rage. My fists clenched at my sides. Not toni

    VISSERA ASHTOWER I was safely escorted into Alpha Soft-heart's automobile with him by my side. He held my hand tightly as the car drove us off towards the Moontower. I felt some relief because this time it isn't the Bloodtower.But I noticed something with me that I felt so embarrassed about, and I do not want Alpha Cole to notice this: the moment Alpha Stoneheart left the moonspire with his entourage, my body had instantly started to feel that foreign insatiable feeling that I felt when I was in Alpha Cone's captive, That irresistible heat spreading in my core made my vagina wet and throb when he dominated me and made me submit to his wild sexual ordeals. When I begged to not be his hunt and begged to be submissive and do anything he wants because I have heard tales of him totally losing it to his beast, and his beast would hunt and suck the blood of his hunt dry.I didn't want to become that, be his hunt, and the fear etched my heart for betraying him.

    Unedited VISSERA ASHTOWER I woke up in the middle of the night to meet Alpha Cole just by my side; the chandelier's candles in the room all lit up his handsome, well-structured face. His face was like it was moulded by the dexterous hand of the Creator of heaven and earth himself, but the room feels like it was melancholic. "You are awake, "he growled as he caressed my forehead with his hand; my heart fluttered... I couldn't tell why, but I could say it is still the disbelief that the most revered Alpha, Cole, is my mate, and right here checking if I'm alright. "Yes… I feel better. I can assure you I am in good health, Alpha." I quickly defended. Most Alphas will send their mates back immediately if they show the slightest message of unhealthiness. Inbred nobles and weak mates, I'm not any of those. I'm not ready to be chased back because of a damned uncontrollable heat. I am not ready to lose all this. This is my chance to save myself and Yennefer from the hell of all these men

"No..." Alpha Cone choked out, his voice low, barely audible. "Vissera…” He called; he realised now that he was only able to stay in control for so long because Vissera was his mate and nearer to him, but now that she was gone, he couldn't keep control of his beast anymore.Something inside him snapped.It started in his chest, a pain so fierce it felt like his heart was being ripped apart. He staggered out of the car clutching at his ribs; the pain wasn't only physical. Her betrayal consumed him, feeding the rage that swirled together like a storm within him, His beast surged forward, no longer asking permission. It tore into him, merciless and wild. The pain became unbearable, ripping through his nerves like fire. He fell to his knees, his hands si

    Unedited COLE BRACKENRIDGE That is the most humane I have seen Cone, my twin brother in a while, not as a dread soaked myth, not as a bloodlust beast terrorizing the Kingdom.There seems to be this small hint of humanity in him when he realized we shared mate, when Vissera was by his side, Unscathed, Undamaged. The beast I know would have made her his hunt.This littlest humane part was the way he fought to own Vissera, The way he went the human route by actually speaking words with me Instead of spilling blood, and also taking my entourages hostage not making them corpses.The Cone Brackenridge I know would not leave, he would take what he wants with bloodshed, and everyone in this moonspire would be his victim..But he restrained himself? And left the moonspire peaceful? Even though the people are almost lifeless with pent-up breath of his beastly destruction.What in the gods' names has tamed him? Was it her?

The girl Chloe is truly talented at least." Sebastian should respect Zayne's code of conduct that he doesn't like girls; why will he sign a girl to his record label? This will probably bring more hatred for girls; we just have to leave him now till he feels a thing for girls."You should get used to me by now that I don't mince words. I'm so sorry!!"He followed me to the construction site.Where I usually take fresh air and throw pebbles into the clean river, mostly used for a pool by the students..."Please, Felix," he pleaded and pleaded and pleaded."Ok, ok!!"I said..."Yasss, that's my Felix.""Let's swim in this cool pool."I said,"I don't want to get wet now; I preferred the artificial pool.".Sebastian excused,"Hummm!!

    “Note:- Chapter will be Fixed”Chloe's POV: I finished my work for today, and I bade Ella goodbye and left for my home. I bade the security man as well; I stopped a cab, and it waited, and I entered. It carried me to the address I gave him, which was my home. I walked to our house door, pressed the doorbell, and it rang, and Nicki rushed out as she almost bumped into me. She looks stuffy as she stuck chicken's lap in her mouth. "Huh, welcome, miss," Nicki said. "Thanks," I said with a smile. "Where's sister? "I asked, "I'm here; welcome, she said as she stepped out of her room. "How was the work? "She asked, "Good." I said as I quickly remembered the memories I see lately, "Sis, I'm confused about something that happens to me lately, I said, "Huhh??!! What's that?" she asked with a worried face. "I usually see someone else's memory lately," I said. "Hmm!! Was that not imagination? Or reflection to the stories you've read," she said. "No,not at all." "Really?? "Yes, I'm sure," I sa

    AVA KILLIAN Ava’s heart thudded against her ribcage as Kaila stepped further into the room.Kaila's gaze swept over the lively scene—the children engaging, Axel standing tall with his stoic calm, and Ava still clutching Darcy protectively in her arms.Kaila’s lips curled into a polite smile, but her eyes glittered with something darker, Just yesterday Kaila had humiliated her with Old Nan Yenn, that they made her question her own sanity.Is she here to complete the disdain, or is she here to check if she had killed herself and end the supposed madness? Anger crackled through Ava's heart.“What a lovely sight,” Kaila said, her tone warm and deceiving, Ava could see through her hypocritical tone, “It’s good to see the children so full of life, isn’t it, Ava?”Ava stiffened. There was a deliberate sharpness to Kaila’s words, like she had something up her sleeve, Ava needed no one to tell her Kaila had something on her for her to visit her room in the first place.Kaila turned to Axel,

    AVA KILLIAN Ava felt the deep feeling of being used, a deep feeling of being cheated; anger boiled in her, but at the same time she felt helpless. What gnawed at her inside was the fact that she had thought Jared was genuinely nice to her; it hurts to see he never was. It hurts to realise he had put on that mask and waited for her weakness in order to penetrate. He was a predator. It shouldn't have been him. Ava strutted through the palace, and eyes were on her, their whispers trailing her like ghosts, but their pressing glare wasn't what concerned her now; let them watch, let them judge; she had a bigger demon to face. On reaching her room, her fingers trembled slightly against her cold doorknob as she twisted and opened it; at least she could lock herself in her room, alone, and cry till there were no tears left to cry. Instead, she was met with a sight that she would never expect; she'd never anticipated this. Alpha Axel sat comfortably on her bed, ease with a loving war
