*Omario POV*

I wake up four hours after my rescue and my body feels like it’s been run over by a train. I had already lost hope and accepted my fate but here I am, given a second chance. The gorgeous face I saw before closing my eyes is the first I see. Abigail, my drop-dead gorgeous mate. Looking at her, my heart warms up and starts racing. She must have fallen asleep watching over me. Now it’s my turn to watch her. She looks so peaceful in her sleep, you would never guess the hell she’s been through. I take in her every feature, every contour and I’m blown away. Absolutely beautiful!

I can’t believe that starvation hid all of this away, but maybe it was for the best. I might have managed to keep her away from dad’s friends but I definitely would not have been successful keeping her away from dad himself had she looked like this. The lustrous bastard could not keep his remarks to himself when she walked past him the day she came back.

I can’t help myself but reach out and trace her

    *Abi POV*When Omario kisses me, every fibre in my body awakens. His scent has me all mesmerised, I want more of him and now. As much as we both want this, we can’t proceed until our wolves are in on this too. After everything we have been through, I want us to do this right. Omario has tried talking to Titan but he is really mad and feels betrayed by Nina. Omario thinks I will have a better luck and hands him to me. An interaction with Titan is always comforting. He is stubborn and cocky when talking to Omario but all gentle and loving with me. Now that I can hear him, I think he is perfect and I am completely in love with him. Omario and Nina are not impressed when I run my hands on his fur and he groans like he always does. They feel left out and start complaining to each other. “Are they always like this?” Nina asks. “You mean getting engrossed in each other and forget that you exist?” Omario responds, amused. “Yes!”“Yah, that’s pretty much how they get.”“Well, we won’t allo

    *Abi POV*OMG! This man is so perfectly sensual! I just can’t stop moaning. His every kiss, his every touch, is cooling my boiling body. I want him to touch and kiss every part of me, but he suddenly stops and I start burning again. “Omario?” I enquire when he hesitates. My legs are wide open to welcome him, yet he won’t proceed. I can even feel him emotionally drifting away from me. He breaks eye contact before asking a question that sinks my heart. “What if I am not as good as him?”I sigh, my heart starts picking up because I know exactly whom he is referring to. “What?”I understand his question but I can’t comprehend how we got here. We should be cementing our bond forever not talking about this. “I heard your moans when you were with him. Despite the pain of losing your virginity, he still made you feel ….”“Omario,” I cut him short. I only slept with Colton to get back at him. Surely, he knows this. How could he even compare himself to a human who meant nothing to me? “He

    *Abi POV*I wake up to a familiar sight of my mate looking lovingly at me. “Abigail.”“Mmh?”“I am sorry.”“For what?”“For Oli, for all the stupid things I did, for hurting you.”“Okay.”We spoke about this already and I have forgiven him but I don’t think he believes me. “Really? You are not just saying that because I’m not Titan?”“You are Titan and he is you.”“You are more comfortable with him and I don’t blame you. I don’t want to change that at all, but I want to account for my mess-ups. I want you to be comfortable with me too. I don’t want to have to shift to Titan for me to get to hear what’s bothering you.”I can hear desperation in his voice and it makes me feel guilty. “I am working on it.”He smiles before I find myself pinned under his sexy body. “Come here.”“No! We can’t spend the whole week in bed. The people want to see us and we have to oversee the ceremony arrangements.”“Oh! Come on.

    *Omario POV*The ceremony goes smoothly. Mom and Terrence have really outdone themselves with the planning. To my relief, Floyd seems to be getting on well with Mom and Terrence. We have the biggest show up of guests in the history of Lily town kingdom. We have Alphas and Luna’s of packs who have never come to our kingdom before because they hated Dad’s greed and leadership. Some are here to satisfy their curiosity about my inferno Luna while others are looking for trading opportunities with us. All our servants and retired ones have also come in numbers. I have no doubt that they are here mainly for Abi. We also have, unfortunately, those who still act naive and ask me about Olivia, pissing my gorgeous mate off.Abi looks exceptionally beautiful today, I keep suppressing the possessive feeling that rises inside me when other Alphas look at her. It gets worse when we shift into our wolfs for the ceremony. Everyone gasp at the blazing Nina and all I want to do is hide her away. It’s

    *Abi POV*I wake up the following morning to find Omario nowhere to be seen. Nina starts stirring up, she’s gotten too fond and attached to our mate. “He must be working,” I try to hush my agitated wolf. “It’s too early to be working!”she cries. “It’s seven o’clock, Nina.”She has no idea what time I woke up when I was a slave.“That time for our morning glory,” she says, sulking and I roll my eyes and leave our chambers. Mother Luna Nala is already having breakfast by the time I get to the dining room. I can’t help noticing how at peace she seems and it warms my heart. “Morning. Where’s Terrence?” The two of them usually have breakfast together. “He left with your man very early this morning. Come have breakfast with me,”she says warmly. This woman has a way of pulling me in. I take a seat opposite her. “Where exactly have they gone to?”She narrows her eyes at me. “Did you and Omario fight again?”I shake my head. “We didn’t. He was just not there when I woke up.”She lau

    *Omario’s POV*Terrence and I are racing back to the castle. I’m still impressed at how fast he gets and I can’t shake the feeling that he actually holds himself back to let me lead. He probably knows that he is different, but I wonder if he knows who he really is. If he knows, has he told Abi about it?Thinking about Abi completely messes up my thought process. I’m addicted to that woman. I can’t wait for her to hear what we accomplished today. “I know you miss her, but you gonna at least talk to me until we get home otherwise I’m never accompanying you again,” Terrence complains. I didn’t realise that I have been quite for a long time. “Terrence, you realise that as my Beta, accompanying me is part of your job, right?” I ask but the truth is, Terrence can never in a million years be answerable to me. He is, by the virtue of what he is, the ultimate Alpha here. “Yes, but there’s three of us. You could have taken your pompous bestie.”I shake my head. He has never liked Floyd and

    *Abi POV*Omario storms out, leaving me fuming. He does not get to be angry when he sent his stupid friend and ex to terrorise my friends and had her scent all over him. “I will lead by myself, I don’t need him!”“You do. You would literally die if he were to walk out for good,” my stupid wolf responds. “Shut up, Nina!”“You are jealous and it makes you nasty.”I ignore Nina and open the documents he give me. My whole ‘I don’t need him’ attitude completely shutters. He spent the whole day calculating just how much is needed to compensate my friends. Each one has the number of years, approximated hours of work they put in and the amount they are owed. It’s a thick document with over ten thousand names. I choke when I see the last pages. He made adjustments to the castle’s expenditures, cut down officials salaries and has already paid everyone without collapsing bankrupting the kingdom. My heart sinks at the reception I gave him. There is just no way he would have send Floyd and Oli

    *Abi POV*A week later, I am doing my best to ignore the noisy elders and enjoy my life, but it’s not only them who are talking. Olivia seems to be perpetuating the notion that she is the Omario’s rightful mate. My lack of getting pregnant is apparently the proof. Teresa tells me that she is getting more followers, which I shouldn’t care about, right?I’m standing on the balcony in deep thoughts when Omario joins me. He kisses my neck before coming around to inspect me. “Why the long face?”I shrug my shoulders and he sighs. “You do know that we are in this together, right? and besides, I’m not ready to share you with a pup yet.”I force a smile. He is right, but I can’t ignore the speculations going around. We are together in this but he is not the one being whispered about. Luna Nala says that’s how fucked up our society is. A woman always takes the blame. She thinks I should let Nina send them all to hell, but I can’t do that. “Cheer up and come running with your man,” Omario

    *Omario POV*A day later, Luna Sarah bids us farewell to return to her pack. She and my mother have had very long conversations. Our warriors will accompany her all the way. With the sceptre on her hand and determination to make her pack better, I have no doubt that she will just be fine. The whole nation is fussing about our pup, I don’t know how many times I have seen his name on ships, billboards and television adverts. Having Terrence, Duncan and Loyd around has made my job so much easier. I get to spend a lot of time with my mate and pup, knowing that everything is taken care off. Abi is also thrilled to have mother back. The two of them spend hours giggling, it warms my heart to see them so happy. Two months later, mother and Terrence’s pup is born and my cocky friend is now worse and insists on being addressed as father Alpha. I have accepted it because in reality, he is the ultimate Alpha and I am thrilled that our people have accepted him just like we have. Abi, Mother an

    *Omario POV*Rufus keeps my eyes open. Alpha C’s face is priceless when Dire’s razor sharp teeth sink into his neck. His lifeless body is thrown into the floor like the useless piece of garbage he was. Olivia’s wolf must have deemed the scene too much to witness because she is now in her human form. I don’t feel the least sympathetic as she holds her chest and screams in horror as the disgusting stolen bond fades. “His Highness is slipping away. I can’t hold him back anymore!” It is the first time I hear Rufus so distressed. I guess the prophet really did love me. Dire growls at Olivia, who shrinks and trembles. Shaking his head, he shifts, hurries towards me and kneels in front of me. “Leave his eyes alone,” Terrence commands. “He will surely die!” Rufus cries but Terrence laughs at him. “No, he won’t.” He sounds so certain but I am not so pessimistic. “Unless he is an idiot, then he will,” he adds. I guess the time away has not done much to change his cocky attitude. “Liste

    *Omario POV*“We need the pup to keep Omario in check. Cut it out, give it to me and kill her,” Alpha C instructs while I am on my knees begging for them to spare my mate. Him and Olivia have been this back and forth trying to come up with the best way to kill Abi while keeping themselves safe. Olivia shakes her head. “If I do that, then she will shift into that fire monster. You were there when she killed everyone in a flash. She has to die before the pup is born or we are as good as dead.”Alpha C sighs. “You are right. What can I do without you?”Olivia giggles and sticks her tongue down the old man’s throat. It’s a disgusting sight but the least of my worries right now. My mate is groaning with labour pains while her life hangs by a thread. “How about I will kill her and quickly cut out the pup before it dies?” she suggests. I have to agree that is the best strategy for them, but really deadly for Abi. She won’t shift and risk killing our pup, but that hands her right into ene

    *Omario POV*I know when Duncan leads me to the secure study that whatever this royal visitor has to say must be really serious and sensitive.“Alpha Omario,”Luna Sarah of the Palmland pack bows respectfully the moment I walk in. “To what do I owe this visit?”She will have to forgive my lack of hospitality. I really don’t have the patience nor the time. My mate is in excruciating pain, I should be by her side. She must have read my mind because she immediately explains herself. “I am sorry to arrive unannounced, but this is urgent. Clement and that seductress you exchanged your father’s horses for are coming to overthrow you.”I can feel her anger when she utters the seductress. My curiosity is already piqued. The Clement she is referring to is famously known as Alpha C of the Palmland pack. He was dad’s friend, that’s why I had suggested he gave him the horses when he wanted them killed. Those are the same horses Terrence bought back a few months back in exchange for Olivia. “Al

    *Omario POV*We are preparing to visit the families of the dead elders when Rufus arrives. I can tell from his expression that it’s not good news. Taking a stroll in the garden to get away from eavesdroppers and my mate, he quietly follows. I stop right in the middle. “Speak.”“The vision is now clear, Your Highness.”I already guessed that it was about that. “Proceed.”“It is not good news, My Lord.”“I have gathered that much. I need to know.”“Very soon, you will be faced with a difficult choice. The kingdom for your mate and heir.”My heart sinks, Abi might not approve but it’s a clear choice for me. He reads through me and proceeds. “It’s not that easy and clear, Your Highness. You will also have to choose between your heir and your mate.”“No!”“I am sorry, Your Highness.”“I can not make that choice, ever.” I am saying this more to myself than to Rufus. He sighs and looks away from me. A cold chill goes down my spine. This can’t be good.“What?”I still need to know as mu

    *Omario POV*It’s been just over eight months since Terrence and Mom left. They do call from time to time, they even send photos of them all over the world, but it’s not the same. We really miss them. Teresa and her mate Duncan, have really proved themselves as worthy Betas. Besides the elders who don’t seem to agree with any of our decisions, our people are happy and our kingdom is really thriving. “Good morning, Omar,” my puffy, almost hundred kilograms mate says with a yawn the moment she opens her eyes. She stretches her arms and tries to get off the bed. I catch her just on time, bringing her back to the bed. I really believed that pregnant women got tired a lot, until I met her. She is heavily pregnant with swollen feet but I swear she has more energy than most people. “Morning Beautiful. Where do you think you are going?”She looks at me with the same cute disapproving expression. “For the hundredth time, Omar, I am pregnant, not sick. The doctors told you that.”I can’t h

We spoke the whole night about it, it’s now time to put it into practice. Terrence gets out of the car and I immediately sense something strange and powerful about him. I can feel his majestic wolf demanding submission from mine. This can’t be good. Abi narrows her eyes before turning to me. “Something is different about him.”I nod my head. “I feel him too.”“It’s happening, isn’t it?”“I don’t know, Babe, but we will find out soon enough.”“Your Highnesses,” Terrence bows with a huge grin on his face before hugging Abi longer than he usually does. “Watch it,” I warn and feel Titan growl inside. Terrence laughs, letting go of Abi and embracing me very tight. “What’s wrong with you?” Terrence is acting very strange even for him. He is already squeezing my mother by the time I recollect myself and rea

    *Abi POV*An hour after everyone has left, Omario is still hoovering over my tummy, whispering sweet nothings to his foetus. I still can’t get myself to maintain eye contact with him when he lifts up his head. I don’t even see him shift into Titan until I feel the soft fur against my skin. My heart suddenly dances and my soul is at peace when my big fluffy smile-keeper jumps to my arms and licks my face. I can’t stop giggling as I run my hands through his soft fur. I don’t think I have been this happy since he and Omario left. He slightly backs away and looks at me as if trying to recall something. His eyes are suddenly filled with sadness. “T?” his sudden change terrifies me. Nothing and no one else gets to him, except me. He only looks like this when I did something hurtful. “You tried to reject us,” he reminds me. I close my eyes, wishing I could take back that day. “I was angry and stupid. I’m so sorry.” I don’t even know how to explain myself. I have to learn to deal with

Another bout of nausea hits me, sending me flying to the toilet. I hardly sleep these days. If I am not cursing my mate, I am throwing up everything. I am just glad that seems to be early morning and evenings when I am alone. The last thing I need is everyone fussing over me. As is, Mother Luna Nala is fussing enough. She is even insisting on cooking all my food. I appreciate all her support and the love she is showering me with.Unlike Terrence, who openly tells me that I am overreacting, she has never even once blamed me for anything. “You know what this means, right?” Nina links. I ignore her, gag and throw up some more. “Abi,” Nina calls me, impatiently. “Yes, Nina, I know,” I snap. “He gets to walk and be with his childhood love while I…”“He would be here if we didn’t threaten to kill Olivia and her pup,” my stupid w
