(Migumi’s POV)“WHERE IS SHE?!”I squeezed myself in the corner of the bed as soon as I heard his thundering voice.Fear instantly covered me.Shaking, I watched the moving shadows in the small gap below the door. I could hear his stomping footsteps outside. I could smell his familiar scent getting closer. He’s going to enter the room!“MIGUMI!!!” he roared, glancing first at the bed like he already knew I was going to be there. I frightenedly looked at him.His face softened upon seeing my face.“My love…”His tone changed.I started to panic when he began to walk towards me. I tried searching for anything to use as a weapon to protect myself but the only thing I was able to grab was a pillow.What will I do with this?My face contorted in agony as I clutched the large scratch on my sides, teeth gritted and eyes squeezed shut against the sharp waves of pain. I got this while I was on the run to escape his pack.My guess is this isn't the only wound siphoning blood from my body right
(Migumi’s POV)My world has shrunk to the size of this dark and foul-smelling dungeon. I spent my entire week in this filthy place, oblivious to the fact whether it’s day or night outside.All I know is that it felt like an agonizing eternity.Rats and cockroaches serve as my company. The only time I’d get a chance to see another werewolf is when a warrior arrives to bring me food, probably to delay the chances of me yielding to my own death.Alpha Cyrus was cruel enough to not send a pack healer down here to treat my wounds. It’s been days and I don't even know how much blood I’ve lost already and if there is still there to save. Unlike the other werewolves, I can't heal myself. My wounds only get worse when left untreated.I bet Alpha Cyrus knew that but didn't care.I feel very cold despite the sweat bands glistening on my forehead. It’s probably because of the hemorrhage. My wound is already infected due to the lack of proper care. I might really die for real if I don't do anythin
(Migumi’s POV)“I moved our bags and stuff to a new base after my brother ordered his guards to search my place. He’s starting to suspect me. We have to make sure our plan will work out this time—” Tara paused when she saw me slowing down behind her. I was gathering support from a tree, pressing my bandage tight to prevent the blood from leaking. “A—Are you okay?” she worriedly asked, rushing back to me.Tara and I made it out of the dungeon successfully. Now, we have to make it through this forest undetected.We planned this escape for weeks. We just had to wait for the perfect moment to execute our plan. Now, with the King’s festival keeping everyone distracted, we only have one shot at this.“We can stop for a moment to replace your bandages—” I forced myself to stand before she could finish what she was saying.“I—I’m okay. We have to keep moving,” I urged, my voice barely a whisper. “They’ll be after us soon.”Tara looked at me worriedly.“B—But…”I pushed myself forward, stagger
(Aiden’s POV)At the heart of Evermere is a luxurious party located at the fancy ballroom of Darkwood pack that will serve as my abode for seven days. Sparkling chandeliers and floral arrangements made the place look like a scene from a movie come true. Everyone is dressed in their designer gowns and tailored suits, arriving in their sleek limousines and sports car, laughing and chattering. The sound of an orchestra playing in the background struggled to keep my boredom away.Growing up as a werewolf prince, I am already used to the lavish lifestyle. It’s all the same flaunting and boasting in the past twenty four years.I’ve grown tired of it.“Prince Aiden!” A small pup chirped, making me move my eyes down to his direction. I was sitting on an elevated table and he was just there down below. I never really like the feeling of being above others.“Yes, kid?” I responded.As ironic as it might sound, this child is the first one to interact with me at this party. Maybe, it’s my royal s
(Migumi’s POV)Looking at the stranger’s face, I can't help but fall in love with his ocean blue eyes. There was nothing like those blue orbs he’s got and it feels like it’s melting me the more I stare at them.Then, a hint of realization hit me when the man opened his mouth to speak again.“Who did this to you?” His voice was low, but the anger simmered just beneath the surface, threatening to boil over. That's when I realized that I’m still clinging myself to the stranger like a drowning person grasping onto a lifebuoy.I immediately pull away from him. I almost forgot about the guards chasing me!I have to keep running!Just when I was about to flee, my sprained ankle decided to betray me, causing me to lose my balance. I closed my eyes, preparing to crash on the ground when I felt a pair of strong arms encircled around my waist, saving me from the fall.My face pressed against his hard chest. I could hear his racing heart and heavy breathing from there. It’s almost like it wants t
(Migumi's POV)I hid myself behind the stranger as the pack of werewolves chasing after me emerged from the shadows. Their eyes were glowing red and filled with malice as they slowly surrounded us in a perfect circle. But to my surprise, they didn't attack. Instead, they halted at the edge of the clearing, growling low in their throats, even Alpha Cyrus who soon followed didn't dare to come near.It's almost as if there's an invisible circle that hinders them from attacking us completely.Confusion knotted my brow as I pressed myself closer to the stranger. Why aren't they attacking? There's only two of us against twenty of them. They are highly trained warriors, they could easily rip us if they wanted to.I glanced up at the stranger, searching for an answer.There wasn't the slightest hint of fear on his face. He's just standing tall and strong in front like a hard wall ready to shield me. His eyes were fixed to the snarling werewolves around us. How can he stay calm in this kind of
(Aiden’s POV)“Migumi,” I breathed, stepping closer. My heart clenched when she took a step back. “You don't mean that, do you? You're not actually rejecting me.”I gazed into her eyes, searching for any hint of uncertainty, but found only sorrow mirrored back at me. The words she spoke felt like a thousand knives stabbing my heart, yet I couldn't shake the feeling that her actions don't match her words. I know that she longs for as much as I long for her. But how can she easily utter those words of rejection like it meant nothing for her?She remained silent, making me more frustrated. My wolf, a silent presence beside me, echoed his frustration.‘We can't accept her rejection! She is our mate. We’ve searched for her for so long. We can't let her slip away right now!’I know, wolf, but you have to help me. How can I convince our mate if she wants to go with them? She’s pushing us away. She doesn't want us.‘She wants us.’Then why….“Y—You are a royal prince, Your Highness. And I… I
(Migumi’s POV)I woke up to the gentle scent of fresh flowers and the soft hum of the birds filtering through the window. Blinking against the morning light, I scanned my eyes around the unfamiliar room.With furrowed brows, I sat up, trying to recall how I ended up in this luxurious bed. I had never been here before; that much was certain.The last thing I remember is dreaming about being taken away by the royal werewolf prince. I can still smell his scent, his gentle deep voice, his ocean blue eyes that is comforting and—“You're awake.”I winced when a man suddenly popped out of nowhere. In his hand is a tray laden with a delicate breakfast. He set down the tray on the bedside table with a gentle smile.It’s…I—It’s the werewolf prince!“Good morning, Migumi. I thought you might be hungry. Do you like warm pastries and tea for breakfast?” he asked with a handsome smile on his face.Am I still dreaming? Why is the werewolf prince still here? Did I die? Am I dead?!Prince Aiden arche
(Migumi’s POV)[5 Years Later]The entire kingdom is gathered in the grand courtyard today to celebrate our son’s birthday. The setup was as extravagant as his spirit with an orchestra band playing live in the corner, and a series of different cuisines to choose from.Aiden and I decided to do a mass potluck for everyone to enjoy. Everyone is welcome to celebrate with us, even the commoners.My mate stands beside me, his hand resting lightly on my back. He smiles, his eyes crinkling at the corners, and I can't help but mirror his joy. He's a proud father, and seeing Kai surrounded by so much love fills him with a warmth that radiates outside."He's growing up so fast," Aiden murmurs, his voice barely audible over the din.I nod, a bittersweet pang in my chest.It feels like just yesterday when I was still cradling him in my arms like a tiny bundle of wonder. Now, he's a boisterous boy, running around, being friendly with everyone. It's something he learned from Aiden."He's a good boy
(Migumi’s POV)[Five Years Later]My lips curved into a smile as the polished marble floors of the hallway echo with the sound of our son’s laughter. It sounded joyous, cutting through the quiet hum of the castle.Aiden and I exchange a knowing smile, our hearts swelling with a warmth that only a parent can understand. Our son, Kai, is like a symbol of luck as he runs around the castle, his tiny legs pumping as he races down the hallway. And just like the usual scenarios, the servants are struggling to keep up with him again."Kai!" Aiden calls out, his voice booming with amusement.I watched him intercepts our son, scooping him up into his arms. Kai squeals with delight, his laughter erupting like a cascade of tiny bells. I look at them, a smile playing on my lips. Aiden sets Kai down, his hand resting gently on his son’s shoulder."You're getting quite the reputation for being a mischievous little sprite," Aiden says, his tone laced with affection.Kai giggles, his eyes sparkling wi
It is an afternoon of breeze, meaning she does her gardening and is enjoying it very much.The smell of freshly turned earth and blooming roses fills my nostrils as I kneel, carefully pruning the overgrown lavender bushes.A shadow falls over me, and I look up to see Aiden standing there, a hesitant smile on his face."Migumi," he starts his voice low. "I have something to tell you."My heart does a little jump. This is what I have been waiting for, to hear from him what he has found out. "What is it, Aiden?" I ask, my voice barely above a whisper."The elders," he says, his eyes shining with a newfound hope, "they're finally willing to accept us."A wave of relief washes over me, as it has been in my hopes for this day, hoping someday I'd be accepted into our community. My lips curve into a wide smile, and before I know it, I throw my arms around him, burying my face into his chest."Oh, Aiden," I whisper, choked with emotion. "I'm so happy for you."He holds me close. I feel his arm
(Migumi’s POV)The sound of people's laughs and gratefulness was something that reminds me of the good decision I made for them.Elders of the pack, especially those who were responsible for the finances of the entire pack didn't agree with my plan to distribute bags of gold to the werewolves. They argue that it would ruin the natural order of the economy.“Are you happy?” I asked my mate who is currently busy taking care of the people.She glanced at me and smiled.“Of course!”My lips curved into a smile. I wanted to ask more, but I didn't want to burden her anymore, so I just stayed out of her business.I was leaning against the wall, watching her when Beta Marvin suddenly came to me.“Your Majesty, the Elders would like to remind you of your conference with them,” he reported. My brows arched. I*****The heavy oak door of the council office creaks open, and I step inside. The Elders are seated around a massive table, their faces etched with years of wisdom and power.I feel a kno
(Migumi’s POV)I woke up to the sound of someone's gentle voice pulling me out from my deep sleep. When I opened my eyes to confirm if it was the love of my life, I proved myself correct. “Migumi…”His voice was so soft as his hand gently shook my shoulder. I stir, my eyelids heavy with sleep.I groan, burying my face deeper into the pillow. “Five more minutes,” I mumble.For some reason, I felt comfortable to act like a teenager being woken up by her parents. I dare to request for another minute and more, thinking that I don't have to be so hard on myself anymore.We're safe.“You’ve been asleep for hours,” he says, his hand lingering on my shoulder.I open my eyes, blinking against the light. Aiden’s face is a blur of concern. “What time is it?” I ask, my voice thick with sleep.“It’s almost noon,” he says. “We need to get ready for the feast.”I sit up, pulling the blanket tighter around me. My head is pounding. I feel like I’ve been running a marathon in my sleep.Then, it hit me.
(Migumi’s POV)"It was Diana," she says, her voice barely a whisper. "She tricked me. She made me do it."I watch her, my heart a lead weight in my chest. I know Charlotte,That's something that doesn't surprise me anymore. Diana has always been cunning and deceitful. And I know that Charlotte capable of making mistakes, of being manipulated, but this… this is different.She was a very easy target."You were scared of her," I say, my voice low and steady. "You were scared because she threatened you when you wanted to give up the original plan."Charlotte flinches at my words, her gaze dropping to her lap. She doesn't deny it. She doesn't need to.I know the truth just like everyone else. What happened to her wasn't the first time it happened. It happened to many others before her.The truth is etched on her face, in the way her shoulders slump, in the tremor of her hands."I didn't want to do it," she whispers, her voice barely audible. "But Diana… she said she'd hurt me if I didn't."
(Migumi’s POV)We buried the little boy that same day. It was truly heartbreaking, and a lot of the healers decided to go to his funeral because he had nobody.I wish I could have done more. It feels like I failed him and myself.A part of me blames my situation, but I know for a fact that things could have gotten better if only I did everything to protect the boy.But what can I do? I am only one.The cell door clangs shut behind me, the sound echoing off the cold stone walls. In my hand is a plate full of prison food. This is actually better than the ones common prisoners receive.I learned from the guards that Charlotte is trying to kill herself by starving. She has refused to eat anything since Prince Anthony’s defeat.I guess she was hoping that she could free herself by being loyal to them.This should be the time for her to repent.I stopped in front of her cell, my expression blank and emotionless.Charlotte sits in the corner, a hunched figure shrouded in shadows. Beside her
(Migumi’s POV)The love we shared last night must have been one of the most amazing things that I experienced these last few days.It’s been busy here in the Kingdom. The healers are still in the process of catering the infected werewolves, but I could tell that they're getting better. I have received many grateful messages from people. It feels nice to hear them finally able to accept me as their Luna.Well, it’s not really everyone. There are still some Elders who are demanding that I leave my position. They still don't think I deserve to be here.It was probably due to the fact that the Legend told them bad things about the moonwolf.I have already debunked that, and it’s up to them whether they're going to believe it or not.As long as I know that I’m doin anything to hurt anyone, I won't stop doing my responsibilities as a Luna. The world deserves a savior.“Where are you going?” Aiden asked, scratching his eyes.He just woke up from his sleep. I was trying not to make a sound to
(Migumi’s POV)Without second thoughts, he pulled my legs towards him, sliding them on his sides. I moaned after my private part bumped on his bulge.I excitedly looked at him, feeling more hornier than ever. He gave me a stare that could make anyone wet themselves.“You're so hot,” he whispered in between his hot breaths.I plastered a seductive smirk on my face, feeling his warmth in between my legs.“I know,” I replied, a hint of confidence in my voice. I began gliding myself to his growing bulge. It made him bite his lower lip, while making sure not to break eye contact with me. “Pull those pants down. I missed that little guy.”I watched him unbuckle his belt like a hungry child waiting for her milk.My eyes lit up as soon as it was just his boxer left to cover his private part. I took the initiative to take it down from its hiding spot. I gasped when it sprung out like a toy. It’s very hard and long. It’s almost the same size as a bat.How do I fit that inside of me?“Are you sc
