Kingsley's POVJust then, the door swung open, and my Luna, Freya, walked in, holding a cup of coffee. She spoke in a sweet voice, "Kingsley, here's your coffee."Setting the coffee on the table, she pouted, appearing somewhat reluctant, but then flashed me a smile. I reached for the cup, taking a sip; it was the exact flavor I enjoyed."Can I head out now? You seem to be quite occupied," Freya asked, her gaze briefly shifting towards Jeremy, who stood off to the side.I felt a slight pang of dissatisfaction, her constant desire to leave me causing the wolf within me to instinctively whimper."Wait for me in the side lounge," I responded unhappily.Why did my Luna always entertain the idea of leaving me? Was she trying to play hard to get?? Or was this her way of punishing me?Freya's expression hinted at displeasure; she started to say something, yet obediently made her way to the side lounge. The door closed with a thud, a silent expression of her discontent."Women are always lik
Freya's POVSitting in the car, I stared out of the window, feeling a sense of boredom creeping in. Suddenly, Kingsley's cell phone rang. I glanced at it, and the caller ID once again displayed "Tracy".Unconsciously, I clenched my hand. Kingsley pressed the answer button, but the person on the other end seemed at a loss for words. He frowned, then hung up the phone and raised his eyes to say to me, "You should go in first. Joyce will meet you at the entrance; she has an invitation."I regarded him with a cold stare. Kingsley's voice was faint as he continued, "I need to attend to something urgent." I averted my eyes and let out a mocking smile. Urgent matter? Anything related to Tracy was probably an emergency in his eyes. The car quickly arrived at the venue of the party. Joyce was standing by the entrance, clearly annoyed as she saw me stepping out of the car.Upon entering the hotel, a group of people came over to exchange pleasantries. "Joyce, you look stunning today." "I
Kingsley's POV"Hey, I thought you weren't going to come," Mark exclaimed.Upon my arrival, I noticed Mark and Finley strolling towards me."Kingsley, this guy said he's bringing a date tonight. Can you believe it?" Mark pointed at Finley and said."Oh, yeah? Who is it?" I replied absentmindedly, unable to divert my gaze from scanning the surroundings."That's the one I mentioned to you guys before, the one I met at the hospital," Finley explained.Mark's curiosity was evident, "Come on, spill the beans. What's she like?"Finley smiled and said, "She's very straightforward and cute. Her thoughts are written all over her face."Mark teased, "Brother, women are the most enigmatic beings in the world. Don't be deceived by their delicate appearance."Finley chuckled, "She's different. I'm quite certain she's the most captivating person I've ever met."Mark grew more intrigued, "What kind of charm does this woman possess? You've onl
Freya's POVIf someone were to ask me at this point what I regret the most in my life, I would definitely tell them that attending this damn banquet was my biggest regret.I found myself amidst the party at that moment, my lips twitching as I faced the scrutiny of three men."Come on, someone! Say something!"Mentally, I prayed for someone to break the tension with a few words.Under Kingsley's angry gaze, I discreetly removed my hand from Finley's elbow and took a step back.Finley looked at me with surprise.I was just about to explain when Kingsley suddenly reached out, pulling me into his arms forcefully."What do you say, my Luna!"Kingsley's arm tightened firmly around my waist as he leaned down to my ear, his teeth gritted.Then, he closed his eyes and inhaled the scent from the nape of my neck.Gasping, I wrapped my arms around the sides of his head, gently separating him from my neck.I didn't know if it was just me, but there was something possessive about Kingsley's gesture,
Freya's POVTracy was left dazed by the slap, blacking out for a second before she could identify the person who had struck her - Kingsley's sister, Joyce."Nice one!" I couldn't help but inwardly applaud Joyce. Never had I found her so adorable.Tracy was unsteady on her feet and crashed directly into the table beside her.The pyramid of wine glasses she hit tumbled over, clattering noisily. Tracy fell to the ground, her skirt's hem covered in red wine and glass fragments.The party was abruptly interrupted by the loud commotion, drawing the attention of the crowd.Joyce was in the midst of her rage, not yet realizing the trouble she was in.She pointed at Tracy's nose and cursed, "You damn bitch! If you can't control your horny wolf all over the place, you'd better see a doctor!"Saying that, she even moved as if to approach Tracy. Finley hurriedly restrained her, asking, "What are you saying?""She's practically throwing he
Freya's POVI gazed directly into Kingsley's furious eyes, almost sensing the inner wolf within him growling with seething rage! My heart raced in pain. This cursed mate bond! It always made me susceptible to his emotions. Then Kingsley's voice reached me, dripping with malice, "Freya, do you even comprehend what you're saying? No kidding!" With determination, I retorted, "Of course I do! I have a better grasp of what I'm talking about than anyone else. And you, Alpha Kingsley, do you understand your actions? Do you genuinely know what you want?" Kingsley's cold gaze bore into me, as if tearing me apart. "Very well... My Luna!! You did a great job!" He delivered those words in a frigid tone before departing, even shooting a cautionary glance at Finley.I released a deep breath before making my way to my seat to steal a moment's respite; the confrontation with Kingsley had drained my resolve. I closed my eyes, allowing my mind to wander. Abruptly, a jacket landed on my shoulder.
Freya's POVAt the Café.I sat across from Finley, watching as he sipped his coffee.After a moment of hesitation, I spoke up, "By the way, about me approaching you regarding the lawsuit... I think it's better to just forget about it."Finley looked up and asked, "What made you change your mind?"For a moment, I struggled to find an explanation."Do you remember this Twitter account?" Finley suddenly brought his phone closer and pointed to a screenshot on it, asking me.I glanced at it briefly and replied, "Of course I remember. Among the people who sent me hateful private messages, she was the most aggressive one."There was a brief silence from Finley before he spoke again, "Do you have a personal issue with Tracy?"My posture shifted and I pursed my lips. "Why do you ask?"Finley zoomed in on the screenshot he had just taken. "The hand in this avatar belongs to Tracy."I was still missing the connection. Since ma
Freya's POV"Wait, are you saying that the lawyer I introduced you to is Kingsley's friend? The same handsome guy who helped you earlier?"I nodded, "Did it instantly feel like such a small world?"Novia was silent for a moment and then whispered, "So, does Kingsley know that you hired Finley to sue Tracy's fans?"I said, "I don't know. Finley promised to keep it a secret for me.""No wonder Kingsley sounded so anxious the last time he called... He was worried you'd been taken away by another man, huh?" Novia teased."No, Kingsley would never worry about that! After all, you know, he doesn’t love me!" I responded.Novia was about to say something else when a call came in on my end. "It’s Kingsley's mother. I'll take it and talk to you later."After hanging up, I took a deep breath and answered the call, my tone instantly becoming polite and composed, "Grace? Why are you calling? Looking for Kingsley?""I'm looking for you." Grace's voice was cl
Kingsley's POVThree years later."Kingsley, these two totes contain bedding and pillows for our kids in kindergarten. I've labeled their names on the outside of the bags with a grease pencil. When you take them to kindergarten, please inform their teacher to ensure they don't get mixed up," Freya said, going through the luggage she had packed a few days earlier."This is the kindergarten uniform issued," she added.I nodded in agreement, "Don't worry, it's a small matter, no problem.
Freya's POVKingsley, seething with anger, attempted to lunge forward to take Grace's life, but I intervened and stopped him."I fail to fathom why you must implicate so many innocents when the issue is plainly between us."I leaned forward onto my knees, feeling a little unstable on my feet after the physical exertion."I have nothing to explain. Just kill me," Grace said coldly.However, at that momen
Kingsley's POV"Alpha, Renee has started a war," Jeremy suddenly burst in, his face tense as he delivered the latest battle updates.As a consequence of Boone's demise, Renee became even more audacious in his rebellion. He aligned himself with the Rogues and initiated a war, seeking to establish a new pack through bloodshed and control.Naturally, Grace wouldn't make his quest simple. Under her command, her forces clashed with Renee's forces, both sides fighting to the death."Well, I
Freya's POVLate at night, I abruptly awoke, sensing a cold breeze seeping in from outside..."Freya, open the balcony door," a voice echoed persistently in my mind.I clenched my fists tightly, resisting the compelling command that echoed repeatedly.Yet, the more I concentrated on resisting the intrusive voice, the more violently my head throbbed, as if my brain were on the verge of exploding...Suddenly— a fishy sweetness surged in my throat, and a mouthful of blood sprayed out.With blood still lingering at the corner of my mouth, my body had instinctively moved to the balcony's edge and unlocked it.A shadowy figure entered, shrouded in the night's cold, promptly closing the curtains."What a beauty," remarked the visitor, revealed to be Boone, the Gamma of the Black Wolf Pack.Anger flashed in my eyes. "Boone, if you must kill me, do it now.""I will kill you, but not yet," Boone chuckled softly. "Right now, someone wishes to see you, and I must bring you to her."I gritted my t
Freya's POVIt was very quiet in the hospital room, and the wind was audibly whistling outside.I turned my head and my gaze settled on Kingsley's figure: "Kingsley, why are you here... Why am I in the hospital?"The depth of Kingsley's gaze was solemn.He slowly replied, "I brought you to the hospital today for a health check. Don't you remember? How do you feel now?""Other than my head feeling a bit cloudy, I'm fine." I raised my hand and pressed my temple.Kingsley's eyes changed for a moment, then he said in a feigned lighthearted manner, "I'll go call the doctor to come over and give you another brief checkup, is that okay?"I nodded, "Yes, thank you, Kingsley.""Just lie back, and I'll call the doctor."Kingsley stroked my hair, got up, and walked outside the hospital room. Soon he returned with a doctor who brought potions and re-administered my fluids.During this time, I lowered my head slightly, attempting to recall everyt
Kingsley's POVLate at night, I abruptly woke up. Freya lay asleep in my arms, but she wore a persistent frown, suggesting that her sleep was far from peaceful.Leaning down, I tenderly planted a kiss on her forehead. However, as soon as my kiss landed on her forehead, Freya's long legs suddenly lifted.As I was about to reach for her restless legs, Freya's foot kicked forcefully, connecting with my chest. Unexpectedly, this sent my half-kneeling body tumbling off the bed, landing on the carpet.
Freya's POVIn the afternoon, I noticed from a distance that Jeremy had brought someone to meet Kingsley. Despite my hesitation, I walked over to join them."What a surprise! I didn't expect to see you here, Alpha Kingsley," remarked the man named Renee, standing in front of Kingsley. His eyes darted around, making me feel uneasy."Renee, huh? I assume my Beta have briefed you on the partnership. Does your visit imply agreement?" Kingsley asked coldly, a frown on his face and a subtle flicker of disgust in his eyes."Of course. Nobody would decline a partnership with you, Alpha Kingsley. I just want to understand your motivation for helping me," Renee inquired cautiously."The answer is evident, isn't it? Grace is my enemy, and naturally, I want her to face consequences. You'll have control of the entire Black Wolf Pack, and I get to deal with my enemy personally. It's a fair trade, isn't it?" Kingsley responded."Indeed. Then you will come with me." Sa
Kingsley's POV"Alpha, we've received a report from Blackland," Jeremy exclaimed as he stormed into my office."Go ahead," I replied."We can confirm that Grace went back to the Black Wolf Pack with a baby, claiming it's Robert's child and destined to be the Alpha of the Black Wolf Pack."I sneered, "As I expected.""Moreover, our sources report an increase in defenses and patrols by the Black Wolf Pack lately."I paced back to the map. "Look here, Blackland is surrounded by mountains, with only narrow paths between the hills providing access to the pack's interior. After Grace returned, every entrance was strictly guarded. It presents quite a challenge, but I've heard that the Black Wolf Pack faced an attack by a group of Rogues some time ago."Turning back to face Jeremy, I continued, "They might have a secret passage into Blackland."Jeremy responded, "But would that group of Rogues be willing to collaborate with us?""We don't need to
Kingsley's POV"We need to figure out what's going on with the Black Wolf Pack right now." I met privately with Jeremy."Alpha Kingsley, what are you going to do? Grace can be tricky, and she's not stupid," Jeremy asked.I smiled and turned to him, "I think it's time to meet with my dear sister, Joyce."Grace had been imprisoned by me as an accomplice since the deaths of Alex and Robert. As for my sister Joyce, I knew she wasn't involved in all the planning, so I'd just ring-fenced a territory for her to live in.Jeremy stroked his chin as if trying to understand my true intentions. "Very well, I'll make arrangements as soon as I can."He paused for a moment as I gave him my orders. "Tell the guys to get ready for action."Jeremy nodded and then left.After a while, Joyce's voice rang out from the other side of the door. "Alpha Kingsley!"I walked over and opened the door.She was wearing subtle makeup; her perfume didn't smell as strong as it usually did, and she was acting more poli
