Damian's POV

Elara's words echoed in my mind, stirring a suspicious feeling—one I didn't want to entertain inside me.

'Let me work at the company.'

The silence stretched between us as I studied her carefully, searching as if I could somehow see her ulterior motive behind those steady, unwavering eyes. Elara was feisty, she isn't one to back down from a challenge easily, but this was unexpected.

She had spent weeks resisting, rebelling, and yet now, she wanted to step into my world willingly. She even stood up for me when the Pack members doubted my capabilities, even went as far as kneeling down to show her sincere apologies to Lyra.

This isn't the Elara I know. This woman won't retreat like this. Maybe she was tired of everything? Or perhaps she accepted her fate knowing quite well she was stuck with me forever.

I narrowed my eyes. "Why?"

She crossed her arms, her posture surprisingly composed despite the clear tension bubbling between us. "I need to get busy," she replied simply. "

    Elara's POV Carefully, I masked my disappointed expression into neutrality as I stared at the two people standing in front of me.Ethan, my newly assigned bodyguard, was tall and interesting, his sharp blue eyes makes it difficult to read his mind. Clara, on the other hand, had a calculating glint that instantly tells me that there was more to her presence here. Her clipboard was clutched tightly to her chest, as if it held all the secrets of the world.I exhaled slowly, forcing a polite smile. "A bodyguard and an assistant? How thoughtful of the Alpha."Ethan remained silent, his expression stoic. Clara, however, flashed a professional smile that was cringe. "The Alpha has instructed us to assist you in any way necessary, Luna. I will be handing your schedule, reports and all work-related information."In simple terms: She was here as a human surveillance camera. While Ethan was here to keep track of my movements. Interesting.I leaned back in my chair, crossing my arms. "I appreciat

    Elara's POV The next day, just around the time I had told Mr Graham to meet me at the hospital, I walked into Damian's office. I stood before him, my heart racing but my posture relaxed. I had to do this. One misstep, and everything would fall apart."The doctor told me the last time to come in for regular check-ups. I want to go today since it's the weekend," I told him, keeping my tone as neutral as possible.Damian barely looked up from his paperwork. "You can leave," he said. Happiness surged through me as I resisted the urge to clench my fists in victory before he added, "Take Ethan with you."Ethan. That is it. I didn't know why I expected Damian would let me go alone.My mind raced for a perfect excuse and when I found one, I feigned mild annoyance. "There's no need for that. If a guard follows me, rumours will start spreading that I'm sick. Do you really want people speculating about the Luna's health?"That got his attention, his jaw clenching. Damian was already calculative

    Elara's POVI met her gaze, unflinching. "Don't be ridiculous.""Then you won't mind if I stay." She responded.I resisted the urge to mutter a curse. She was digging, pushing me to my limit. If I forced her out, she'd become more suspicious. "Suit yourself," I said indifferently, taking the empty seat beside her.As the doctor carried out the examination, I briefly checked the time and it was already 2pm—the time I had told Mr Graham to meet me. My mind raged with annoyance. She had just ruined my plans of meeting with Mr Graham. I couldn't even imagine the disappointment I'd feel if the busy man had decided to show up and I was the one who didn't. But then disappointing him was safer than letting Lyra suspect something.One hour later, the checkup was over and it was time to head home.I stepped into the parking lot, but as I reached my car, I heard the unmistakable sound of footsteps approaching. "Why would you keep me waiting?"I turned to see Mr Graham, his sharp eyes studying

    Elara's POV As night fell, I made my way to Damian's study, dressed in a silk nightgown that clung to my body in all the right places. It was also transparent, revealing my breasts and ass that had no panties or bra. If Lyra thought she had won, then she was solely mistaken. In the three years of our marriage, I knew exactly what Damian desired, how to draw him in. And tonight, I intended to play that game right.I stepped into his dimly lit room, my voice soft but laced with intent. "I thought to come see you," I murmured, my fingers trailing over his desk as I approached him.Damian looked up from his laptop, his gaze darkened with lust as it roamed over me. "What are you doing, Elara?" he asked, softly but the disbelief in his voice was unmistakable. Thank Moon Goddess he knew —he knew that I'd never throw myself at him easily.I circled around the table and stood in front of him. I pushed back the laptop and sat by the edge of the desk. I lifted one of my legs and positioned it on

I parted my mouth and wanted to dip it inside but his strong hand gripped my wrist.I opened my eyes to find Damian in front of me, his eyes had gotten darker, his control slipping away. "You asked for this, Elara," he growled. He took the fingers and dipped into his mouth, tasting me like his favourite candy.I won. But....then I knew this wasn't just about the bet the Lyra. I wanted this and maybe I had used the bet as an opportunity."Fuck...." He murmured, bringing my fingers out of his mouth. "Always so fresh."I smiled at his compliments. He positioned me properly on the table, and parted my thighs. His fingers trailed around my entrance slowly as if he was memorising and worshipping every detail.He slipped the straps of my nightgown off my shoulders, revealing my aching breasts, the sensitive peaks hardening a

    Damian's POV The moment Elara walked out of my study it was like the air left my throat. My hands curled into fists, my body still burning from the thrill of her touch, her scent lingering like an intoxicating wine.Fuck!I should have stopped her the moment she came in, I should have sent her away before she ever got the chance to have me wrapped under her fingers. But I didn't. And now, I'm suffering the aftermath of my actions.I sat back on the chair, running a hand through my hair. The throbbing in my groin was overwhelming, unbearable, a painful reminder of what I wanted to do right now. I want Elara to kneel in front of me, then I gag my dick down her throat. My jaw clenched again, as the realization that Elara still had power over me and she knew it.After the last time I had sex with her, I swore not to do that again. I knew she enjoyed it just as much as I did, but I couldn't shake off the thought that I still forced it on her. And then she was humiliated by Lyra. I sat the

    Damian's POVI didn't deny it. That alone made her stiffened, her face contorted with frustration. But then her expression softened and she sighed. "Damian..... We shouldn't fight because I knew Elara must have seduced you. I just...." She hesitated before stepping closer, placing my hand on her stomach. “Our baby needs you. I need you.”Her words settled in my mind. My child. My responsibility. I couldn't afford to let Elara control me—not when Lyra was here, carrying my heir.Sensing my turmoil, she sat between my lap, and undid two buttons of her shirt, revealing her smooth breasts that had gotten bigger due to pregnancy. Come to think of it, Elara's breasts too had gotten bigger or was it just me? When I touch them, they were fuller than I remembered and the nipples stuck out in a way."Come to bed with me, Damian. At the check-up today, the doctor advised that I have sex more often for the baby to remain in a good shape."Baby? Good shape? I couldn't resist anymore. I nodded, and

    Elara's POV I paced my room, my bare feet sinking into the plush rug as I tried to shake off the energy coiling inside me. My skin is still flushed from the sensation of Damian's touch. I was sure I had gotten under his skin, I was sure I had driven him to an edge, so why isn't he coming for me? Why isn't he here yet?But come to think of it, why am I feeling this way? This was supposed to be nothing more than proving Lyra wrong. But now, my body long for him, my heart raced with the thoughts of the same man who I am supposed to ruin, who was supposed to be an enemy. And yet…A sound reached my ears, low and soft, but unmistakable.Moans.Damian, with Lyra?Lyra that bitch. She had exaggerated her moans just to tell me she won. Just to let me know she was more valuable to him than I am.Fuck! My breath hitched, my stomach twisting as I turned towards the door. Should I go and meet them? No I shouldn't. That would be too desperate. I already lost, barging in there would only heighten

    Author's POV "I can't believe those bastards failed," Kael seethed as he paced the hotel room restlessly. "There were five of them. Yet they couldn't defeat just one man."Lyra lounged on the bed, a glass of wine in her hand, as she glanced up at him. "You said they were the best in the country. How come they failed after all the money we paid?"Kael let out a dark chuckle, turning towards her. "How would I know they were up to no good," he snapped. "Get another money. I need to hire another assassin again."Lyra face twisted with shock. She couldn't believe her ears. After giving him all her life savings that she had been getting from Damian, he still wanted her to get more. "I don't have any money.""What did you say?" He stepped closer, his face twisted with fury. "I don't care. Get the money. Fuck Damian or anyone else. Just get the money. We need to get rid of Damian and seize the throne before that old hag returns."His words pierced Lyra heart. Fuck Damian or anyone else? He do

    Damian's POV I blinked repeatedly to be sure it was Lyra that stood in front of me and not some devil incarnate from the pit of hell. Kill the former Alpha? Elena's father? And even if it was part of my plans, he was once like a father to me in the past—a father-in-law. I shook my head, staring at her to confirm if this was the same fragile and kind woman that we grew up in the Rogue kingdom together, but unfortunately she was the one. She stood staring at me like she had just said the most natural thing in the world.Lyra. The woman I know was kind. While I was taken in by the Rogue king after my parent's death, I shut everyone out of my life. She was the only girl who would come everyday and offer me her toys to play with, her snacks to share with me, even though I would slap them off her hands and snap at her to stay away from me.But she never did. Her kindness and unrelenting effort pulled me out of my darkness. We grew up being there for eachother, our wolves running the cleari

    Author's POV Damian's fingers tightened around the phone, his knuckles almost turning white. He had just set his eyes on something unexpected, something that is enough to change everything completely. Silence fell over the room as he took in the message, the gaze of the Elders fixed on their Alpha expecting him to speak.."Elara...." He whispered, the air in his throat had vanished, his hands trembling slightly.Elara's heart slammed against her ribs. This is over. He must have found Gomez's message. She had been caught red-handed and there was no escape route. But then, his next words caught her off guard."Your father is awake?"Relief flooded her, but she didn't show it as she quickly answered. "Yes. He woke up this morning. Mother sent me a message."Murmurs rippled through the room and the Elders exchanged knowing glances. Their expression shifted from suspicion into relief. Elder Seraphina lips even curled up into a small smile."Thank Moon Goddess," Elder Seraphina said, her vo

    Elara's POVThe other Elders nodded in agreement, murmurs rippling through them.My gaze fell on kael and this time his smirk has completely disappeared, replaced by anger. Elder Seraphina had just put him in his place. What a shock.Then I shifted towards Damian, who had a flicker of doubt in his eyes. Damian was foolish. After everything I had done for me, even if I did try to kill, I hadn't expected him to believe so easily."Its true," Elder Gregory chipped in. "The Luna has been nothing but supportive. We must be careful while dealing with a matter as delicate as this." I heaved in relief, letting myself relax for a bit. Doubts. It was growing in the mind of the Elders. And they didn't know that everything I have been doing was an act I had to put on to save my father, the real Alpha.I stepped closer to Damian, whispering loud enough for only him to hear. "Convenient, isn’t it?" I pressed. "The moment you get attacked, someone suddenly accuses me of plotting your murder?" Becaus

    Elara's POV Damian's words rang in my ears like a bad music on a loop, taking away all the happiness I had felt minutes ago from mother's news about father's health. My body stiffened, my heart pounded as I stared at him, confused and shocked."Why did you try to kill me, Elara."The world around me tilted for a moment, but I forced myself to remain calm. I, Elara? Kill him? Where did he get the nonsense from?I turned towards the seated Elders, hoping that Elder Seraphina and Elder Gregor who had watched me since I was a child and capable of what I could do, would stand up and counter Damian's nonsense but they didn't—their eyes was filled with a mix of curiosity and doubt. The silence was suffocating, pressing against my chest.I opened my mouth, and surprisingly my voice was steady. "What did you just say?"Damian's gaze was cold, filled with unrestrained fury. "Don't play dumb, Elara," he spat. "I know everything."Everything? What the hell did he mean? Did he know I wanted to kil

    Author's POV Damian's face twisted as he stared at Kael, his heart pounding. Kael sounded so sure—he can't be teasing him. But he was afraid to ask for Kael's evidence. What if it was true? What if the woman he was still holding onto actually wanted him dead?Kael smiled inwardly. Yes. He got him. He had never expected that after everything, Damian would still be holding onto Elara, which was ruining their plan.The plan was simple. Kael's father, the Rogue king raised Damian and pretended to be in full support of him, but what Damian didn't know was that the Rogue king actually wants the throne for his son, Kael. His plan was for Damian to take Lyra as his Luna, then eliminate him and Lyra will pass the throne to her mate, Kael.Lyra and Kael have always been entangled with each other but Damian was too blind to see it.Finally Damian opened his mouth and asked, "What evidence do you have?" Kael dropped the kit carefully, his tone smooth and highly manipulative. "I know you might no

    Damian's POV Since I became the Alpha of the Cadman Pack, I had barely had time to let my wolf, Storm and go on a run, and he had been snapping at me in frustration because of his confinement and also for the way I treated our mate—Elara. So, this morning I decided to let him ran as much as he wanted, maybe that way I'd be able to clear my head. Alone, I made my way to the forest and without wasting time, I shifted into my wolf form, my paws echoing against the floor as I ran around the clearing. The morning air should have been refreshing, giving my wolf the freedom he longs for, but it did absolutely nothing to stop the raging storm inside me.Elara.I couldn't sleep all through the night because I was thinking of her, worried about her.Even I had failed to acknowledge it, I had noticed for sometime now that the strong, fiery and unyielding woman I know was gradually disappearing or maybe she was losing herself. She had gotten more pale, her body always trembling with fear and exh

    Damian's POVShe hesistated but eventually obeyed. I walked toward my drawer, pulling out a small bottle of pills that I had gotten from the infirmary earlier, and a glass of water: the doctor had told me she had a severe headache so I ordered a very experienced healer to prepare a potent pill for headache. When I turned back to her, she was staring at me, suspicion laced in her gaze.Fuck! Did She think I would stoop so low and poison. C'mon, I may be an asshole who took back everything that truly belonged to my family, but I'm not that heartless. Besides, I already have the upper hand and resorting to poison was cowardice."What's this?" She asked, eyeing the medication in my hand.I placed the pills in her palm, crossing my arms. "Medicine. You've been sick. You need to take this."She scoffed, attempting to push the pills back at me. “Why should I trust that this isn't poisoned?" She said, and her distrust made my heart twist painfully. "And besides I don’t need it. I’ll be fine.”

    Elara's POV How was that even possible? His presence loomed over me and yet I couldn't perceive the scent of the man I despised the most. A werewolf's sense of smell was one of the strongest, and yet I was losing that too.No.I squeezed my eyes shut, my nails digging into the blanket as if that could erase the reality playing out before me."Elara," Damian's voice was annoyingly soft. "Are you feeling better now?"His hands reached out, moving towards my forehead but before he could touch me, I slapped his hand away with as much strength as I have left. "Don't," I snapped, my voice sharp. "Don't you dare touch me with those filthy hands. It's not your fucking business."His jaw tightened, but his expression still remained. "You collapsed, Elara. I have every right to be worried about you."I scoffed. "Worried? No, you aren't. You can fool everyone else but not me. You worry because you need me alive to serve your purpose."I saw something unreadable in his eyes. Guilt? Annoyance, may
