Leonidas' POV

I stood on the field, my mind still weighed down by the previous night's turmoil with Casandra. It was a restless night, and I felt the fatigue in my bones. But as the Lycan King, I couldn't afford to show weakness.

Adrian and the Lycan generals gathered around me for a briefing on the troops' deployment. Their expressions were stern and resolute. The time for action was at hand.

"Your Highness, the troops are prepared and ready for deployment," Adrian reported.

I nodded, my thoughts clearing as I focused on the task at hand. "Excellent. We've waited long enough. But before we move, we must wait for Isadora's arrival."

The generals exchanged glances, surprised by my decision. They knew the urgency of the situation, but I had my reasons.

One of the generals spoke up. "But, Your Highness, the troops are ready. Isadora's presence is not necessary for the deployment."

I looked at them with determination. "It is necessary. Isadora is an important part of this mission; she's t

    Isadora's POVAfter the first batch of lycan warriors set off to my stepfather's pack, with nothing left to do, I returned to the guest house. A feeling of unease gnawed at me the moment I stepped foot into my room. My wolf senses rarely tingled, but they did - a sign that something was amiss. The air felt heavy. Judging by the roller-coaster of emotions and events I had passed through in the last couple of days, I brushed it off as nothing serious, probably just a bit of stress and anxiety from being so far from home.I decided to undress; a bit of cold water on my skin would definitely do me good. I bent over to remove my shoes when I sensed movement behind me. A cold shiver ran down my spine. Before I could react, I was roughly grabbed by my neck from behind, and the chilling touch of a silver blade met my throat."Don't move, Isadora,". A woman hissed, her voice a frigid whisper.Panic surged within me, and I struggled to catch my breath. "Who are you?" I managed to choke out, my

    Leonidas's POVI rushed back into the castle, my mind a tangled mess of frustration and anger. Adrian followed, curious and concerned. I needed a drink to drown my troubles, but even the fiery liquid couldn't soothe the turmoil in my heart. I collapsed on the couch in my royal chamber, my grip on the glass tight.Adrian, always loyal and ready to lend an ear, couldn't hold back. "Your Majesty, what's eating at you?"I didn't answer immediately, just kept muttering her name like it was the only thing I could think of. "Isadora... Isadora... Ahhhh!!""Bash!!!"I couldn't contain my frustration, so I hurled the glass against the wall, watching it shatter into pieces. It was a pitiful release for my anger, and I knew I needed something stronger to numb the storm within me."Get me the good stuff," I ordered Adrian, my voice rough with tension. He nodded in understanding and left the room for a brief moment. When he returned, he had a pack of cocaine in hand.Without saying a word, I took

    Isadora's POVLeonidas' continuous silence and indecision were starting to get on my nerves, and I couldn't bear the disrespect anymore. I turned my gaze toward Leonidas, my eyes burning with anger and frustration as I stepped forward. "I, Isadora Philip, of the Wild West Pack, reject you, King Leonidas, as my mate."With those words, I spun around and stormed off the balcony, leaving behind a crowd thrown into chaos. Whispers and murmurs spread like wildfire, and the shock of my rejection reverberated throughout the kingdom.I left him standing there, dumbfounded, but I had made my choice, and I wasn't going to back down."Seize her!" someone ordered, but I didn't bother looking back. I knew I had to get away from that place and quickly. I couldn't bear the crowd's judgment, and I needed some space to process everything.As I tried to make a run for it, two lycan guards quickly grabbed me from behind, and there was no escaping their strong grip. Panic set in as I realized I was being

    Isadora's POVMy steps were heavy as I turned away from Leonidas' piercing gaze, ready to leave with Casandra. His voice stopped me in my tracks. "Isadora."I hesitated and glanced back at him, his expression softer now, his eyes a mixture of concern and exasperation. "At least leave with some clothes on."I felt my face flush with embarrassment as I realized the state of my attire. My shift back to human form had left my clothes in tatters, exposing more than I cared to show.Leonidas turned to Adrian, who was standing beside him by the balcony. "Adrian, get her some clothes."Adrian nodded and hurried off. After a while, he returned with a simple overall gown. It wasn't the most flattering outfit, but it would serve its purpose. I took the gown from him with a nod of gratitude.The lycan guards were still hovering close by, their eyes fixed on me as I held the gown in my hands. I felt a shiver of discomfort, and my patience wore thin. "Could you all please close your eyes? I need to

What is the meaning of that stunt you pulled at the north? I sent you to represent our pack, but instead, you went over there to create a scene and embarrass our pack's reputation. Are you stupid?"My temper flared, and I shot back with equal intensity, "I'm not stupid, stepdad. Leonidas is a terrible excuse for a mate, and I had to reject him."The tension in the room escalated as we locked eyes, neither willing to back down.My stepfather's face contorted with anger as he demanded, "Go back to the north this minute, Isadora, get on your knees to beg Leonidas for his forgiveness, ask him to forgive you for that madness."I couldn't believe what I was hearing. "You want me to apologize to him? After everything he did, you must be joking, stepdad?"My stepfather's voice was firm. "I don't care about what he di

    Isadora's POVWe drove to a local bar just outside the outskirts of the Wild West Pack. The establishment had an inviting atmosphere, and it didn't take long before I ordered an alcoholic cocktail. A few glasses in, I leaned in toward the girls, a glint of excitement in my eyes."You might think I'm crazy," I began, "but I've got the greatest idea."Casandra raised an intrigued eyebrow. "Alright, spill the beans. What's this idea of yours?"I took a sip of my cocktail, feeling the warmth of the alcohol spreading through me. "I want to start a pack."Lisa, who was in the middle of taking a gulp of her drink, choked on it, sputtering as she tried to catch her breath. "What!! A pack?" She finally managed to say, disbelief written all over her face."Yeah," I replied. "I know it sounds crazy, but think about it. We can create a pack where we decide the rules, where we treat everyone with respect and equality, and where we don't have to deal with overbearing Alpha males."Casandra looked p

    Isadora's POVAs we rolled into the Firewolf Pack, the vibe inside the car was as heavy as a raincloud. Casandra, probably trying to lighten the mood, decided to dig into my past."You know, Isadora," she started, "I've been meaning to ask. What's the deal with you and your ex mate Eamon? If you're running to him for help, he can't be all that bad right?."I sighed, staring out the car window. "It's a long story, Casandra. Eamon and I had our moments, but things went south. Still, desperate times, desperate measures, you know?"Casandra pushed on, genuinely curious. "Come on, spill the beans. What's the whole scoop on you and Eamon?"Taking a deep breath, I spilled the tea. "Eamon was once the guy I was crazy about and madly in love with, soon to be Alpha King of Aeloria, and I was carrying his pup. But he changed, and not for the better. It was a wild emotional ride, and trust me when I say I'm not eager for round two."Casandra gave me a knowing look. "Say no more, Isadora. I think

    Isadora's POVAs we entered the vast West Woods, tension thick in the air, I suggested, "We should split up. It'll help us cover more ground and find Lisa quickly."Matamoros, immediately objected, "Isadora, it's too risky to split up. We could easily get outnumbered. It's safer if we stick together."Casandra chimed in, nodding in agreement, "He's right. Strength in numbers. We don't want to take unnecessary risks."I sighed, realizing they had a point, "Fine, let's stick together for now. But be ready to move fast if we get any leads. We need to find Lisa and get out of here as soon as possible." The urgency in my voice echoed.As we ventured deeper into the woods, Matamoros spotted smoke in the distance. Drawing our attention, he gestured for us to follow. We approached cautiously and witnessed a disturbing scene—a campfire illuminating Lisa, tied to a tree, surrounded by masked rogues engaged in some sort of ominous ritual.My heart sank at the sight, anguish washing over me as I

"What are you doing here? I don't remember sending you an invitation," I demanded."Isadora, please forgive me. Give me another chance to make things right with you. I've learned my lesson, and I learned it the hard way," he responded, going on his knees.I glared at him, a mix of anger and disbelief welling up inside me. "Another chance? You don't get to waltz back into my life and ask for another chance, Eamon. You hurt me more than you can imagine," I retorted, my voice firm.Lisa looked between us, visibly uncomfortable, sensing the tension in the air. I took a deep breath, trying to compose myself.

    Isadora POVAs I entered the main chamber excorted by Lisa and Rodrigo who followed closely behind, I was greeted by a completely different sight, not what I had originally expected to see. The chamber was occupied by a bunch of old women putting on a strange looking similar outfit.I was taken aback by the sight, but just before I could ask what was going on, one of the old ladies approached me and spook in a language I couldn't understand, but she made hand gestures, that felt like she wanted me to take off my clothes.I gasped in shock, wondering why and who they were, turning sideways to exchange a look with the chief guard who now let go of my hand, bowed his head smiling mischievously and exited the room alongside Rodrigo, leaving Lisa and me all alone with the old women, a confusing expression perfectly positioned on my face as I exchanged a glance with Lisa.Apparently, this was customary in the South, reading from the handwritings.

I stammered, still not entirely comprehending his abrupt shift. "Golem, are you serious?"He held me tighter, looking into my eyes with a sincerity that I hadn't seen before. "Isadora, I'm done running. I want to build a life with you, here in the South. I want a family, and I want it all with you."A mix of emotions flooded through me—relief, joy, and a lingering trace of disbelief. I never expected him to make such a commitment, especially considering his past reluctance. Yet, here he was, declaring his intentions with a conviction that echoed in his voice."But what about your responsibilities as the king of dragons?" I questioned, needing reassurance that this decision wasn't made in haste.Golem brushed a strand of hair from my face, his eyes softening. "I can figure something out.

"Where is this coming from? What have I ever done to give you such an impression?"She held her ground, her gaze unwavering. "I love you, Golem, but how can I trust that you won't run away from me? If you can run away from your mother, then who am I?"Hearing her say those words, I was taken aback by a whirlwind of surprise as I took a few steps backward, stunned by her response. The weight of her doubt hit me like a tidal wave, and for a moment, I felt lost in a sea of confusion."You just broke my heart, Isadora," I confessed, my voice carrying a mixture of sadness and vulnerability.

The worst part was that I couldn't remember a single thing, and my whole body felt sore.Still dizzy, I rolled around in bed, trying to stretch my body. When I rolled into what felt like a rock, the sleep immediately disappeared from my eyes as I yelled out, "Golem, what are you doing in my bed!"He gave me a puzzled look, a grin playing on his lips as he replied, "Really, Isadora? Really? You actually want me to believe you don't remember a thing that happened between us last night?" A doubtful expression on his face.I shook my head in response, saying, "No, I don't. What happened between us?" I asked as I grabbed the blankets to cover up my naked body.Golem chuckled, leaning in closer with a mischievous glint in his eyes.
