Ember’s POV:

I mulled over his words again. Another thing besides ruthlessness, Alpha Nicholus was well-known for one other trait; that he was the man of his word. If he was promising me all those things then he’d never go against his words.

And when I imagined it, it all felt like a beautiful dream. My heartbeat became irregular as it dawned on me that it could be a perfect escape from my chaotic life.

I could just accept his proposal and leave with him to the cold lands covered with snow. I pictured us together, in front of a cozy fireplace, wrapped around each other’s arms, sharing a hot cup of coffee and mumbling about all the nonsense things.

My heart started pounding in my chest and Aria pleaded with me, “Please, just say yes. We can just go to the North and build a beautiful life with our mate.”

It all seemed too good to be true. Wasn’t that what girls craved for? The sense of security and peace? A man who could protect them from anything evil?

But then, it was the moment of tr

    Ember's POV: The next morning, I woke up sharp at 5 am to the blaring of alarm. And as soon as my eyes opened, my mind went back to the events of the last night and the conversation I had with my mate.A shudder ran down my spine as I recalled his words, 'I'll be back, Little Princess.' It was a promise. The one he was going to fulfill at any cost. I was still engrossed in the flashbacks of the last night when I heard a light knock on the door. I groaned inwardly as the door slid open and Ms. Tacy stepped inside with her little minions just like every morning. Making her way over to me, Ms. Tacy chirped, "Good Morning. How are you feeling today?" I mumbled under my breath, "As low as someone can feel." She leaned closer, "What? Did you say something?" Plastering a huge smile on my face, I croaked, "I said that I'm feeling as fresh as a daisy." Straightening up, she smiled brightly, "Perfect. Let's get ready for the day then." She tiptoed toward the bathroom to get a bath ready f

    Ember's POV:Slowly, I turned around and faced my father, "Who is he?" That's all I asked because that was all I needed to know.He assessed me with evaluating eyes. I knew he was looking for my reaction to how I was going to perceive this new piece of information."Arnold Pierce," he uttered with a hint of finality.Keeping my face void of any reaction, I nodded, "The alpha of the DarkFur Pack.""He is perfect in every aspect," he informed me.I knew the meaning behind those words. By 'perfect', he meant that Alpha Arnold had a reputation good enough to be a part of our royal family but also foolish enough to serve as a puppet for my father."The engagement is next week. It'll be just a short ceremony for the sake of formality with..." he started blabbering.Not being able to take any more of his bullshit, I cut him off, "I'll be there."Before he could say anything in return, I was already making my way toward the exit.-----------That night when Sophie and I resigned to my private

    Ember's POV:The next morning when I woke up, I found myself drenched in sweat. I tried to heave myself up but all of a sudden, I felt like my skull was splitting in half with the severe headache.I closed my eyes and stayed on the bed for a bit longer. Reaching to the back of my mind, I called my wolf, "Aria? What's happening to us? Are you okay?"All I knew was that something was wrong with me but I had no fucking clue whether it was related to me being a witch or was my wolf under threat? But it was bad. I could sense that.When a long minute passed and I got no response from Aria, I tried again, "Aria, where are..."I was interrupted as my bedroom doors flew open and Ms. Tacy tiptoed inside. As soon as her eyes landed on me, she gasped and rushed in my direction, "What happened? You don't seem okay to me."Assessing me with worried eyes, she pressed the back of her hand against my forehead and screeched, "You have a fever. Wait here, I'll alert the medical...""I'm fine," I blurted

    Ember's POV:I peeked my eyes open and the first thing I saw was the white ceiling. A second later, Sophie’s cute little nostrils came into view as she leaned over me, “Oh, you are awake finally.”Worry was written all over her face as she inquired, “What happened?”I groaned while sitting up. I still had a lingering headache. Rubbing my forehead, I answered her question, “I don’t know what the fuck happened to me but I've been feeling so weak like I have no stamina or energy left in me.”Her forehead wrinkled, “That has never happened to you before.”I leaned my head against the headboard and sighed tiredly, “And that’s why I am so astonished.”The earlier events replayed in my mind. I shook my head and huffed out, “It’s a shame to faint like that in front of everyone, and that too after just two damn punches.”Suddenly, I noticed an IV catheter attached to the back of my hand. My gaze traveled up the tube and I saw an IV drip hanging there. Drop by drop, some clear liquid was drippi

    Ember’s POV:Her first reaction, to my words was astonishment. Her second reaction was deep frowning, “What? How does that even make any sense?”I gripped my hair and pinched my eyes closed, “I don’t know. I just…I just thought that she was upset with me and showing tantrums that I didn’t have time for and…”“Wait wait wait…” Sophie cut me off mid-sentence and looked at me with utter confusion, “Now what do you mean by that?”Opening my eyes, I looked at her, “Mean what?”She waved her hand in the air, “Why would Aria be upset with you in the first place?” She paused and then continued, “I mean, you have always dominated her, and she had surrendered to you then what could have been the reason for her to be upset?”I opened my mouth, “I…umm…” and then clamped it shut. How could I tell her the reason? I didn’t want to confess to a single soul who my mate was.What could be more disgraceful for a future Queen than having a mate from the enemies, right? And that too the ruthless King of t

    Ember's POV: My eyes averted on their own. I couldn't meet her gaze, that's how shameful I felt in front of my best friend for having a mate from the lands of the enemy. No wonder the information must stay hidden from the people of the South. Feeling defeated, I mumbled in such a low voice that it came out as, "Alph Nikls."Sophie leaned closer, "What was that? Say again."Not meeting her gaze, I repeated myself, a little louder this time, "Alpha Nicholus."She frowned and nodded slowly, waiting for any bells to ring in her mind.When it didn't, she tilted her head to the side, "I can't put a face to that name. I know all the alphas of the South but never heard of that name before."I rolled my eyes, "That's because he is not from the South."She waved her hands in the air, "Then from where? East, west?"You see, even she didn't consider the possibility of the North. That's how impossible it seemed to be true.I heaved a huge breath and started speaking, "From the lands that are col

    Nicholus's POV:After the training session, I resigned to the conference room inside the castle with my Beta and Gamma for a meeting about business matters.Recently, Alpha Maddox Sinclair, the King of the East approached us to attain the rights to the production of Bloodmoon Merlot, the only alcoholic beverage that could intoxicate Supernaturals.Considering it was one of the main sources of income for the North and well, the treasures and wealth wielded by the North would make anyone envious, so it was no surprise that others too wanted to try their hands on it.But as the beverage was crafted by my grandfather, the rights of its productions were only owned by the North. And no matter how much others wanted to make and sell the drink under their name, they wouldn’t dare go against the North.Besides that, they are actually unable to make a beverage exactly like BloodMoon Merlot even after trying for centuries. Yes, there had been copies but none of them could stand a chance in front

    Nicholus's POV: Later that night, the three of us met at the backside of the castle. I've called my Beta and Gamma to go on a run with me because I needed to clear my mind and feel the fresh air to calm the restlessness building inside me. No matter how much I told myself that I wasn't affected by the news of the engagement, that was a lie. I couldn't explain the agitation and distress I've been feeling ever since the engagement news arrived. I wanted to rip the whole world apart, light fire to it, and watch it engulfed in flames. My wolf, Xoro, was also in utter turmoil. He was enraged at the idea of his wolf mating with someone else. He wanted us to go back and rescue her. And I found his theory laughable. The fool was still not ready to accept the fact that his mate herself wanted it. It wasn't like someone was forcing her to go ahead with it. She didn't need our rescuing. Stripping, we shifted into our wolves, and as soon as I let Xoro take control, the first thing he did

    Nicholus’s POV:Exiting the dungeons, I started walking toward my private chambers. The night was so fucking mind-exhausting that I wanted to spend the rest of it alone before I caused any more destruction.Passing through the Luna’s quarter, I spotted her guards standing outside. Coming to a halt, I inquired, “What are you two doing here? Didn't Luna order you to take Darius to the castle clinic?”One of them nodded before answering, “We were on our way, Alpha. But then Beta asked us to take him to his chamber instead.”Turning on my heels. I started walking in the opposite direction. The castle had various chambers, quarters, and wings. The biggest of them was known as the Great Chamber which had always been reserved for the King. It was located above all the other chambers. It was so huge that I could see half of my empire from its terrace. After that was the Luna’s Quarters. Then, there were smaller chambers for Beta and Gamma.With quick strides, I crossed the hallways until I re

He released an exasperated breath and said agitatedly, “You challenged my authority when it came to Darius, mom. But as the Luna of this pack, I let that go and gave in to your demand because I respect you.”His voice turned harsher as he bit out, “But she…she is not a member of our pack. So, you do not need to protect her.”He looked straight into Luna's eyes and uttered with finality, “Let me handle thi

    Ember’s POV:I watched in astonishment as a tall lady stormed into the dungeon hall with two guards behind her. They were nothing like the dungeon guards. Both had heavy build with intimidating looks permanently etched into their features. They were more like warriors.But all of my attention was focused on the lady who was lethal but equally charismatic. Immense power radiated off her.Her eyes were fearless which quickly turned ferocious as soon as they landed on Darius hanging from the ceiling.“For God’s sake, Nicholus. He is your Beta and you cannot do this to him,” her cold gaze slashed to my mate who was still gripping my cheeks.The lady’s eyes widened as she screeched in disbelief, “And who is she? And why are you clutching her like that?”“Mom…” my mate said tightly and that was enough to draw a complete picture for me.The charismatic lady who had just appeared out of nowhere was no one but the Luna of this pack. Well, that justified the way she dared to interrupt Alpha’s b

    Ember’s POV:Turning toward Darius, Nicholus assessed him with a vengeful gaze, “Really, Beta? Were my orders about her not clear enough to you?”Darius’s shoulders slouched as he exhaled, “They were, Alpha.”“And you still decided to go against me and defy my orders?” growled my mate angrily.Darius stared at the ground, “I thought…”Alpha cut him off mid-sentence, “I wonder why you have a soft corner for her, Darius. She is the one who betrayed your Alpha and still your loyalty lies with her.”At that, Darius lifted his head and looked at his Alpha, “That’s not true, Nicholus. I…”Once again, my mate didn’t let him finish as he spat bitterly, “I feel betrayed, Darius.” He shook his head slowly and grumbled in a low voice, “And you were never supposed to betray me.”Before poor Darius could explain his point, Alpha Nicholus turned his attention to the guards standing on either side of Darius and ordered them, “Hang him to the chains.”My eyes widened at his words, “What?”I saw in ho

    Ember’s POV:I dug my nails into his hand wrapping around my wrist while rasping, “Where the hell are you taking me?”Initially, I had expected him to put me back in the cell but soon, I realized that the devil had some other plans for his prey.Fear crept under my skin as he dashed deeper into the dungeons, leaving all the cells behind. As we walked through the dark corridor, I felt the air becoming thick and stagnant.I winced at the foul smell of rotting flesh whirling in the air. I tried desperately to wriggle myself out of his tight hold and croaked through the clogged throat, “Just leave me. Let me go.”At the end of the corridor, he took a sharp turn to the right and started bolting down the staircase. My free hand flew out in a failed attempt to hold anything, to fight him but all was in vain as he sped down.A shiver ran down my spine as the temperature here felt even colder than it was in the cells. Only a few dim lights were illuminating the otherwise dark hallway.There wer

    Ember’s POV:Once again, silence prevailed all around us as we both stared at each other with intensity. None of us averted our gazes as millions of thoughts whirled around in our minds.I waited for him to thrash out in anger, mock me for not being a purebred, alpha-born, and insult me for having mixed blood in my veins.More than anything, I desperately waited for him to reject me right then and there. A new hope fluttered inside me. I was a hybrid, everything opposite to what he was expecting in his fated mate.The wisest thing for him to do as a King was to reject me and find a Chosen Mate with strong connections and pure, alpha blood coursing through her veins.But a long time passed and he kept standing there, gawking at me, thinking God knew what.His blank stare had started to affect me more than I liked to admit. I wondered what was going on in his mind.I squirmed under his hard stare and finally sputtered, “Say something.”I regretted that instantly. Why did I sound so vulne

We don't know how she..."Before the poor, frightened guard even finished his sentence, my very uncivilized and cruel mate lunged forward and wrapped his hands around the necks of both guards.Moving with the speed of light, he took the

    Ember's POV: Death played in front of my eyes in slow motion. I saw bulky wolves prancing in the air with their mouths gaped open, ready to bite their meal and tear me apart. I was still as a rock, not daring to move a muscle in my body, welcoming death with open arms when, all of a sudden, the world seemed to stop around me. My eyebrows deepened in utter confusion as I saw wolves suddenly falling to the ground mid-jump. Their bodies thudded down and they all touched their heads to the ground in complete surrender. A million questions whirled in my mind and I jolted around in a full circle to make sense of the things happening in front of my eyes. Who were they surrendering to? There was no one around us for as far as my eyes could behold. I would have loved to get answers to satisfy my curiosity but what I would have loved even more was to survive. As I took in all the wolves bowed down in surrender, it suddenly felt like fate had given me a second chance at life, at freedom.

    Ember’s POV:It had been ages since I’d trained or practiced with my packmates due to the weakness I felt after Aria’s disappearance but I didn't let that excuse bring me down when I was this close to freedom now.Closing my eyes, I called forward the athlete inside me and took a deep breath to release the tension in my body.I walked closer to the wall that was now separating me from my freedom and took a moment to assess it with evaluating eyes.My gaze roamed over the stony wall and I touched the protruding stones where I could hook my hands and feet while climbing. There was no doubt that the wall was strong enough to hold my weight but the only problem was the silver that was now streaking down the wall at multiple places.I couldn’t do anything about that other than tolerating the burns because no matter how careful I could be, the touch with silver was inevitable.I rolled my shoulders several times as a warm-up.
