What happens when love triumphs over vengeance? Audren had sworn to avenge his murdered mate, to kill and destroy the person who did this and everyone else in his family. He should have done that, he should have killed everyone, he shouldn't have spared her and taken her as his personal prisoner. Loving Iridessa was not part of the plan, and Iridessa falling in love with him too was not what she wanted to happen. They were both supposed to hate each other, she was daughter of the man who killed his mate and who he had sworn to kill and he was the person who killed her family, so how did this love happen?
View MoreThe bodies of my parents and brothers lay on the ground, covered in blood and bruises….I don't know when or how the piercing scream left my throat. The pain, the anger, everything hit me.I removed myself from the mens grip and rushed down to see…to…God. I couldn't, I couldn't even touch them. "Mother…father…" the tears pooled down my face as my insides churned and hurt,"Leo…Stephen…"None of them answered me…none of them heard me.Why was this happening? Why?! A few days ago we were all happy as I celebrated my eighteenth birthday, they were laughing and smiling and now…now.."So you're Iridessa." A deep and cold voice echoed in the room and I turned, cleaning my teary eyes so that my vision would stop being blurry. The man, whoever he is was dressed in black, completely except for subtle gold highlights, he was backing me at first and facing the huge family portrait that sat on the wall. "Iridessa…" he called my name again before turning around. His..his eyes were a deep black
Iridessa's POV:“Iridessa!” A loud desperate voice called from outside. In shock, I peeled my swollen eyes open, wrapped my bodice around me and ran to the door. As soon as I pried the door open, one of our maids whose name I never knew rushed inside and shut the door behind her with a speed that signified that something was wrong.“What’s wro—” I was about to voice my confusion but she cut me off abruptly.“Iridessa, you have to come out right now! The luna said you should go through the secret tunnel right now; there is no time to explain, just follow me please.” She rushed out. I knew something was absolutely wrong because she just called me by my name, and also due to the fact that my mother wanted us to meet at the secret tunnel because it was never used.“What about what I’m wearing?” I asked, pointing at the lacy nightie that I was forbidden from wearing out of my chambers.The maid eyed my clothes quickly, then answered with a wave of her hands, “just forget about it, let’s go
The day of the attack arrived. I am dressed and ready as I step out of my chambers and make my way to the door. It was snowing,the whiteness spreading every where and my thoughts went to how blood would look on this snow. "Greetings, Milord" Demitri said as he walked towards me, bowing as be did. "Ready?" He nodded. I walked over to where the men waited and I was pleased with what I saw. All the men arranged properly, each with a look of resolution at the work ahead. "Greetings, Alpha Adrian!" They all greeted, their voices thundering loud and clear. Their bright gold and black uniforms standing out even more in the white and snowy background and so did the flag that was held. The flag which was the image of a full moon with the crescent part of it highlighted.As I looked around and examined the men, I suddenly realized that someone was missing, I wondered why Asher wasn't here. "He said that something very important came up." Demitri said. More important than this? I was g
As the carriage rolled into the palace, I could already see someone waiting at the entrance for me. Someone I told earlier to go home, rest and….mourn.My would-have-been-brother in law, Asher. "Alpha…" his voice cracked as he stood before me. His face reminding me so much of his sister. I didn't know what to say or offer condolences. We have both lost something. "It was Riverton," I said and saw his brows raise before settling into a frown. "Johan did this?" He said, his breath becoming heavier as his eyes constantly shifted from his to his wolf's. "Johan murdered my sister?!" "Calm down, Asher—" Demitri tried to say but was instantly stopped by Asher. "Calm down? Are you fucking serious Demitri?" His anger was elevating as he took hard steps towards Demitri who didn't flinch for a second, "My sister just got murdered and you're telling to calm down?? Are you—" "Enough." I said. This wasn't the time for arguments at all.Asher sighed as he ran his fingers through his hair,
Adrian's PovI stand in silence as I watch the flames consume Kya's body. The heat from the fire is intense, but it barely registers against the pain and anger that consume me.

But I force it down, knowing that losing control now will only make things worse.Kya was my mate, my other half, my everything. She was my best friend.And now she's gone, taken from me in the prime of her life. I can't help but think of all the things we had planned together, all the future that we will never have. The thought of living without her is almost too much to bear. We were supposed to rule together…But even as the sadness threatens to overwhelm me, the anger is always there, burning like an inferno in my chest.
