Connor's POV.

I looked at him and saw that he was just an ordinary guy on the road. Some stranger I had never seen before. His expression looked like he was deep in thought, and he seemed fragile.

“But what was that I felt just now?”. I asked myself.

I had felt an overwhelming aura, it was calm, but also threatening. It felt like cold water was running on my back.

I wondered why I was so worried about him, and why I was so threatened. I felt embarrassed that I became so defensive about a nobody. So much so that I could not contain my anger and humiliation. I had to confront him.

I thought he would just be another pushover like these three other guys I torment. But to my surprise, he seemed unfazed by my incessant persistence to get him ticked off. He kept going on about how he was having a bad day and just wanted to go home.

It pissed me off, to see his audacity. It was like he was deliberately trying to insult me but in a subtle way. I do not like being belittled, especially not in

    Zelda’s POV Simone and I got to the basement in no time, I was shocked at how they managed to get rid of everything that I once saw in there.“So, where do we start from?” I eagerly asked, looking around the room. Simone kept staring at me without a word.“What do you want me to do?” I asked her again. “Nothing!” She replied, and I could tell she was trying too hard to hold her laughter.I was baffled by her answer as well as her expression. “What do you mean nothing? Aiden and Alaric clearly gave me permission to supervise the whole thing.” I explained to her clearly. “I guess the princes tricked you into believing you had a major role.” She replied, this time without being able to hold her laughter. I had no idea why she was laughing, I didn’t notice I had cracked a joke. “There is nothing much to prepare and nothing much to supervise either.” She explained. I was dumbfounded

    Ajax's POV. I spent the rest of the morning wondering why I had dreamt the way I did the previous night. It was not unusual to see Zelda in my dreams sometimes, as I still had a strong feeling towards her. What was unusual was seeing Stacy, and then the events that unfolded before my unconscious eye still baffled me. “Is that a sign of things to come?” I thought to myself, shuddering at the thought of it. I felt cold chills run down my spine, and so I decided I was not going to give it much thought but wave it off as a meaningless dream.Johnathan, Erwin, and Mikhail were now becoming more comfortable around me with each passing day, and I was with them. They are basically like the people in your life you never knew you needed until chance made it happen. I had begun to grow fond of them, and their presence just took my mind off wallowing in loneliness and silence.I had wanted to take them all out to at least make them feel more at home and make them feel comfortable. But I decided

    Ajax PovConnor’s sudden visit took us by surprise.“Why do you think he is here?” Mikhail inquired, worry visibly written on his face. I gently shoved them off me and I made my way to answer the door. I felt someone hold my hand and I turned around to see it was Johnathan, shaking his head, trying to tell me not to answer the door. “You three should calm down. I just want to know why he is here at this time of the day. I promise you all, nothing will happen. You are perfectly safe here with me”. I assured them.I walked over to the door and after waiting for a few seconds to assess my environment, I could tell that he was not there with any ill intent. There was no bloodlust, at least none I could detect.I opened the door, looked around to see if there was anything I missed, and then I stood before him as I questioned… “Why are you here, Connor? Do you think this is safe? Coming here all alone after all the tricks you pu

But to my surprise, he seemed perfectly fine. “Alaric, what are you doing in my room this early? Scared about tonight?” He teased and I let out a slight smile. “Scared? No, but I’m anxious.” I admitted to him without hesitation. “Yeah, I understand. There are so many uncertainties and that can be overwhelming.” Aiden added. Just before I could say something else, Aiden’s eyes began to glow, and he instantly fell on the floor, I frantically ran to his side.“Aiden, what is happening to you?” He held his shoulder tightly with his hands as he groaned painfully. I was confused, I wasn’t sure what was happening. After some seconds, he let go of his shoulder and the wound on his shoulder had disappeared. We both looked at each ot

Do you not see the vast difference between you two?” I questioned further.“He is a beta but with enough bloodlust to snap you in half without trying. He has lost everything, and he has nothing else to lose. But you are a new member of a new pack for that matter. You sh…" I was trying to explain before he cut me off.“That is why I have to fight!!!” Johnathan screamed, trembling once he was done.“That is why I need this” Johnathan calmly said, slowly trying to catch his breath.At this point, it was evident that there was nothing I could do or say to dissuade him from carrying out this task he had set his mind on, regardless of what it was I do. I began to admire him more, his bravery was astounding, and he was always the calm one among the three, so his doing this seemingly out of now

    Connor's POV.Being in Ajax's house and in his presence made me feel a little jealous of him. He looked like a fine specimen of a man, albeit in his current situation. I think I was envious because he was the kind of man I wanted to be. Someone with maximum influence over people with the minimum effort applied. But I am here now and those thoughts should not bother me. I have laid the challenge I came here to lay and from this moment on, there is no going back for me. But as usual, he proceeded to belittle me. First, he called me a name that was not mine, messing with my psyche. So much so that I momentarily lost my cool in a bid to correct him. And it seemed to work because from there onwards, he stuck to calling me my name. He even surprised me by apologizing. It was definitely unexpected.I was becoming impatient, and I let him know by demanding an answer to my duel request. He then proceeded to explain many things to me that, frankly I was o

Noel and I kept looking at him as he seemed like he was trying to process his thoughts on what was going on. “What do you mean?” I questioned him with the last straw of patience I had. He finally cleared his throat as he seemed like he was back to being himself. “I was in the library 3 years ago with the king, that was the first I had seen that journal, I was curious about it content as it looked quite different from the other books.” Aiden paused before he continued.“I opened it and found out it was blank, I instantly tossed it aside in disappointment and the king smiled after he noticed what I did. He picked up the book and dropped a few drops of his blood on it, and the journal was instantly filled with words.” He explained. “So the king’s blood is the only key to reading that book?” I asked s

Before I could say anything else, he pushed me inside the room and pushed me to the bed. He suddenly looked like a beast ready to devour me whole, and that excites me. He pulled down his trousers and I looked in between his legs with my eyes open, but I instantly pulled myself together. “You want me now after how badly you have treated me?” I said while sitting up, as I tried hard to stop myself from jumping on him that instant.“You don’t want me?” He asked seductively, and I smiled mischievously.I gestured for him to join me in bed, and he looked at me for a while before

I met a guard on my way, and he handed me a letter that was meant for the princes. “There is a letter for you three,” I informed them as I sat beside Zelda. I handed it over to Alaric and he opened it. “What does it say?” I asked him, but he didn’t say a word and just handed the letter back to me. I cleared my throat after reading it. “Well, it seems like the king left his son one last gift.” I declared. “What do you mean?” Ajax asked. “A solution to the bizarre situation of sharing a mate. Turns out it was quite an easy one.” I expl

Not now.” I kept thinking.I felt it was my fault in a way, but I couldn't decipher how.I suddenly stood up from my seat and darted towards Ajax, ripping the letter away from his hand and reading its content. Apparently, our mother had known that the king was going to die, and she had a list of suspects mentioned in her letter. There were two critical pieces of information in her letter.

I exited the room unable to say a word, I had no idea what to do or where to go. I saw Alaric approaching me and a part of me wanted to walk away again, but I remained still. “I’m sorry, Ajax.” He said softly.“For what?” I snapped at him. “For everything.” He whispered. “No, Alaric. You are saying the wrong words. What I want from you is an explanation of what I just witnessed.” I replied angrily as I tried hard to stop myself from punching him.“I love Zelda.” He confessed. I was dumbfounded by his words.“Since when?” I questioned further. “From the very beginning.” He said gently. “You are nothing but a hypocrite.” I scoffed. He looked at me with his eyes full of sadness. “Aiden and I must’ve looked like

We weren’t expecting you.” Aiden blurted out. “Well, I heard there was a problem within the council and as the only elder in the royal family I thought it was about time I stepped in.” He calmly explained as he sat on one of the empty chairs.“I’m glad you are here my lord, the young princes seem to be forgetting how things work, I think they require enlightenment.” Lord Thomas informed Uncle Jamie confidently. “None of you can sit on that throne without the approval of the council.” He stated clearly. “Not when their claims sound like an excuse to prevent any of us from being the king,” Aiden said with anger in his voice. “You will have no choice but to listen to them, unless you want to be a king with no subjects.” He threatened.

I extended my hand for a handshake and just like I expected, he was taken aback by my gesture. “May the best man win.” I declared and walked away feeling a bit satisfied. The next morning…Jonathan, Connor, and I were already waiting for Zelda at the entrance of the palace. “You said you were going to show us around the town, but you somehow turned into a date with your mate.” Connor sarcastically complained. “Are we supposed to give you two some space when we are out?” Jonathan teased. “You two! Cut it out. She will be here any moment.” I cautioned them. “Was this your plan all along? To use us as an excuse?” Connor accused. I didn’t say anything, but instead, I was just smiling at his silly reaction. “I suddenly don’t fe

I did make a promise after all.” He said and I nodded. “But make sure you are discreet about it.” He added. He picked the book up and flipped a few pages as he hummed to himself, I watched him carefully, waiting to be enlightened by his next move.
