Lizette’s P.O.V.Pregnant?Jane’s query caught me off guard, sending shock waves throughout my body. I hadn’t thought about it before. Because of my illness and differences with Vincent, it didn’t cross my mind that my muffin top could be a sign of pregnancy, not a result of staying in bed for a long time. A mixture of shock and happiness swirled something deep in my heart, I held Jane’s hand and spoke.“I don’t know, Jane. Can you please buy a pregnancy stick for the medical store? I don’t wish to inform anyone.”As it was just a wild guess, I didn’t intend to alert Vincent and Lady Isabella. This false alarm could embarrass me more if I weren’t pregnant. Meanwhile, my intelligent buddy came up with a brilliant plan and leaned closer, whispering in my ear.“What about if we go to the general hospital for a test? My friend is a nurse there, she will ensure our privacy.The results of the pregnancy stick vary in different cases.”Oh, yes!I thanked Jane for her timely hel
Vincent’s P.O.V.“The poison isn’t detectable in the shifters, but we are certain that they were attacked in the same manner as the Lycans in your pack’s forest. Please check our doctors’ report!”Alpha Damon was briefing about increased poison attacks on the Werewolves, this was the sixth attack in one week.In addition to the Werewolf packs, foxes, rabbits, and even snakes were complaining of a dangerous outbreak, where their pack mates were turning wild, unable to recognize anyone.It was like their minds were controlled by only one thing: Blood lust. The situation escalated pretty quickly after Little Swan’s attack, I was getting reports from the packs daily. So, I came to visit the neighboring pack to supervise the investigation process as my Erasthai’s first heat ended officially.She could stay unharmed in my absence now, so I left my pack. It was the right time to show my subjects that I was with them in this calamity. However, my mind drifted towards Little Swan c
Vincent’s P.O.V.“Vincent!”My mom instantly covered her ears, jolted by my Royal command. Her face turned pale in shock.“How can you talk to your mother like this, Vincent?And for that mere outsider?How long do you know her to trust over your mother?”Although her tear-stricken voice trembled my heart, I couldn’t pay any attention to it. My Little Swan’s misery had overpowered my brain, she must be scared alone. I completely ignored my mom’s tears, and walked past her to see my Erasthai.But she held my wrist, “I am sorry for looking out for you, Vincent. But you must see the evidence before freeing your Erasthai!”I didn’t want to see any proof; however, the servants gathering in the corridor forced me to reconsider my decision. It was necessary to defend my Little Swan’s honor in public. So, when she would be out, she shouldn’t have to face the questioning gazes of the people. My mom was wrong to accuse her, and I was more than pleased to prove it in front of everyone.
Vincent’s P.O.V. “Good morning, mom!” My spy came with the video recording of the last six hours, it started with my Little Swan’s respectful greetings. They were standing in front of my office, so I guessed that Little Swan went there to inform me. “You are so smart to ask for my permission when I was in a formal meeting. I should applaud for your slyness, omega! Only you can come up with such innovative methods to go out and meet your lover.” “My lover?” Little Swan gasped, “What do you mean by it, mom? I went to see a doctor.” My Little Swan’s response wasn’t considered by my mom, as she continued with her previous statement. “Don’t you ever take me as a clueless idiot, omega! You can fool my innocent son, not me. I have seen through your lies.” With that, mom opened a light-brown envelope and threw the pictures on Little Swan’s face, spewing out hatred. “Look at your intimate pictures, and then advocate for your purity, promiscuous woman. You dared to have p
Vincent’s P.O.V.“Why this?”The world around me spun on its axis as the tab almost slipped from my hands, I couldn’t believe my eyes for a moment.After reading ‘DNC’ written in bold letters, I stared at the doctor, waiting for an explanation. Doctor Sarah’s desperate tone cut through the air as she requested.“I am sorry, Your Majesty. But your child is dead. We need to perform this procedure to save Her Highness’s life. Please …”“No!!!”My mouth opened in a silent scream as I gaped, uncertain whether to scream or breathe. The sharp blade of revelation sliced my heart into two. I stumbled backwards, losing my footing for a brief moment as gargantuan grief enveloped me. I couldn’t even muster the tears to mourn my loss.Just a few hours ago, I was the happiest man in the world, planning celebrations for my son. The news of my heir had solved all my problems. But my fate took a one hundred and eighty-degree turn, destroying my world in a split second. I was on the verge of
Lizette’s P.O.V.***“It’s a white bunny!”Sprinting in the woods, I spotted a lovely white bunny, the one I always wanted for me. A wave of exhilaration washed over me as I started following that cute creature, hoping for the best.“Now, I won’t be lonely!”The gusts of fresh morning breeze caressed my face as I moved forward, making me feel liberated. It was like I had tasted freedom after a long time, the rich essence of nature rejuvenated my soul. The soft gleams of sunlight illuminating my path brought a sense of familiarity. I was pleasantly surprised to see my pack’s forest. The miracle of returning to my home added to the joy of chasing my dream.I giggled as the bunny hopped over the bushes and bumped into the tree branches. “Easy, my dear!I am not an enemy. Please stop!I will take care of you.”My soft voice perked up bunny’s ears as he paused to look at me with his sparkling puppy doe eyes, melting my heart. I stopped at some distance and crouched down to gai
Lizette’s P.O.V. “Confess your crimes!” Vincent’s thunderous growl reverberated in the surroundings, shaking me to the core. He roared in fury, forcing everyone into submission. Lady Isabella and Evangeline, kneeling on the floor trembled in fear, their quivering voices sounded like a symphony to my ears. “Please forgive me, Your Majesty!” Even after everything, I was amazed that they had the guts to ask for forgiveness. Maybe they were certain that their strong connection and services to the throne would save them. After all, why would anyone convict his old companions only because of a mere omega? The spark of interest I felt a few moments ago, has now vanished in thin air, surrounding me with the dark shadows of grief. It was my fate to live like an ordinary omega. Hopeless for my future, I watched the full court’s proceeding as if a film were playing for me. Lady Isabella was the first one to speak. “I apologize for my slandering Her Highness, Your Majesty. My all
Lizette’s P.O.V.Although it was an out of the blue offer, I got excited, anywhere else was better than staying in the Palace. The wretched memories attached to this massive building made me hostile towards it. I finally felt at peace after boarding the plane. The flight back to the Silver Claw Pack was nostalgic, reminding me how enthusiastic I was before coming to see my mate’s pack. Closing my eyes, I relaxed in the seat, reminiscing about the past when I was eager to leave the Silver Claw Pack.My soul belonged to the lycan pack way before going there. Call it the magic of mate-bond or love of my mate, the pack I grew up in became a foreign, strange town, making me feel weird. I just wanted to have a pair of wings to go to Vincent’s home that time. Chuckling inwardly, I pondered over odd twists of fate which had pushed me to the point where the Lycan Pack and Silver Claw Pack both weren’t my home anymore. I wasn’t sure to whom my heart belonged to.Perhaps it was buried i
Lizette’s P.O.V.“How could I miss that?”Racing my feeble legs, I tried my best to follow that superfast vampire, drunk by the exhilaration of finding his mate.After knowing Dylan for three months, I was well aware of his impatient nature, he could be a little insensitive while stating harsh facts. Now, his mate was my sick buddy, I couldn’t trust him with her at all. Yes! My BFF Liana was his mate according to my wild guess!She was the only unmated or ex-mated female I met today, her delicate condition flipped my heart in my chest. She was recovering from the devastation of losing her mate after the completion of the mating ritual. It was impossible to predict how she was going to react to this news of a second chance mate.Mate and a vampire?It was a perfect recipe for disaster!As I reached the residential area of my pack, the real-life scenes of my horrifying imaginations welcomed me. I found Dylan surrounded by a massive crowd of enraged pack mates. Men and women
Lizette’s P.O.V “I knew it!” Vincent’s ear-shattering growl shook the ground below my feet as he punched that attacker, cursing his entire race. “You aren’t a trustworthy person, leech. I will kill you tonight!” Ares’s death threat instantly converted into reality as he bared his claws, adamant on tearing that vampire apart. My trance was broken by my friend’s pleading. “Save me, Lizette!” Dylan? With his mouth smeared by blood, Dylan was helplessly enduring Vincent’s blows. I had to personally separate them as keeping Vincent at bay was impossible. He roared in fury. “Don’t come in between us, Little Swan. I caught him in the act tonight. He can’t escape the penalty!” Cradling Vincent’s face in my hands, I asked him to look at me. “Look, Vincent! Dylan is a Prince, not an idiot to endanger his fellows’ life like this. Give him a chance to explain himself.” Vincent’s amber eyes glowed golden as he took deep breaths to calm down, but Dylan added fuel to his f
Lizette’s P.O.V.“Don’t go there alone. Wait for me!”Obviously not!I brushed off Vincent’s reservations and went with Liana, her brother came with us to take his sister back home safely. The doctors had advised us to keep an eye on her, so it wasn’t safe to let her roam outside in the dark.I followed her lead as she pointed towards the north.“I saw her there, Liz!”This forest was my home, so I didn’t need more assistance for guidance. I sent Liana away with Casper, waiting for them to leave safely. Then, moving forward, I looked around curiously.“This way!”A hushed whisper alarming me raised small hair on my nape, running a chill down my spine. The rustling of leaves in the mysterious wind accompanied that whispering as it continued,“We have seen everything. Allow us to show you, dear buddy.”Whoa!Dear buddy?It was a terminology I used to address my tree friends, naming every tree was difficult in these massive woods. Calming my racing heart, I placed my hand on
Lizette’s P.O.V.“I am coming!”A cry emerged from the depths of my heart as I forced my feeble legs to run as fast as possible, following a superfast creature wasn’t easy for an omega like me.But still, I hastened my steps, calling that cruel fox.“Leave this bunny alone, monster!”In normal circumstances, hunting for hunger was a usual matter. But my emotional attachment to this specific scene drove me nuts. On top of it, I realized that this chase was fruitless after seeing the rabbit barely dodging the fox’s expert jump. A bullet of panic rose in my chest as my entire existence shrieked.“No!!!”At the height of helplessness, a sudden adrenaline rush burst through my veins, energizing my soul. I spread my arms as if my body had a mind of its own. Splaying my fingers in the direction of the fox, I spoke in a strong tone.“Protect my bunny!”As soon as these words rolled out of my tongue, the unrivaled authority of my order alerted the trees around me. My heart raced l
Lizette’s P.O.V.“A dinner?”My dad’s sudden planning left me aghast, I couldn’t get what he wanted exactly. Two hours ago, he kicked Vincent out, endangering his life by attacking his King. And now, he asked mom to prepare dinner. It was uncalled-for.Dad didn’t bother to respond to my curiosity and took out his cell phone, dialing a number. I was still under the haze of shock when the call connected, disclosing his habitual call for help.As my dad’s side of the family was martyred in the last war, he was the last survivor of the Bancroft family. He was used to calling my grandma for every problem, seeking her guidance like she was his own mom. That was what he did now, and explained my situation for her advice.Grandma spoke in her soft tone, “Get Liz on call, Harvey. I will talk to her.”Mom and dad went outside, giving me privacy in my room. On video call, my grandma was in tears, “So much happened and no one told me. I am sorry, Liz. I couldn’t do anything to relieve you
