Shyla’s P.O.V. The word party pooper tied a knot in my stomach, filling my head with all sorts of worse-case scenarios at a record speed. I had anticipated a great war between Maddox and Prince Edith as this issue could only be resolved by the death of that rebellious wolf. However, I thought that it would happen after my first shift, where I could take part as a warrior to defend my King. All the plans of flexing Ash’s powers to impress my mate went straight to hell when Maddox alerted his brother. “Magnus, code red! You know the drill!” The look of extreme panic on Alpha’s face broke out goosebumps over my skin. He held Catherine’s hand and hid her behind his tall muscular figure. “Stay close to me, Catherine. Don’t speak until it’s necessary!” At that moment, a sudden wave of frustration surged from the depths of my heart. I couldn’t stop myself from praying. “I am trying my best to cope up with my mate’s status and schedule. But still, I am a newly mated girl, who w
Shyla’s P.O.V. “Are you sure about this?”Maddox’s voice slithered into my ears as I reached the door of our chamber, overjoyed by the beautiful end to an eventful day. But the suspicion of his voice halted me in my tracks, I paused to hear more.“I am a woman, Your Majesty. How can I be wrong about my body anatomy?”The topic of discussion confused me, I parted the door to peep inside. The sight of Maddox and Onyx looking at a cell phone took a brand-new turn when he said, “These videos suggest something else, and you are telling me an entirely different story. Whom should I believe now?”Onyx was visibly distraught to hear Maddox’s response, she was clenching and unclenching her fists as she said,“Your Majesty, there’s a difference between a movie and real life. Please try to understand ...”Tormented by the elongated suspense, I barged into the room and asked,“What are you two doing?”Maddox jumped to see me, as if I had caught him in the middle of something wrong and s
Shyla’s P.O.V.“What worked?”Taking deep breaths, I tried to calm down and paid attention to my mate, whose lazy fingers were trailing over my wetness. His charming smile melted my heart into a puddle, seeing him happy with me was a next-level happiness for me. Maddox straightened up and bit his lower lip, his seductive whisper broke out goosebumps over my skin. “It turned out that there’s really a sweet spot in a woman’s body which can make them orgasm.”My eyes widened as I stared at him in a catatonic stupor, it was out of my mind that my mate discovered something so basic now. After spending three centuries as an adult, how could he miss clit and its wonders?Unbelievable!But his royalty immediately justified his complete oblivion, Maddox wasn’t an ordinary man but a King. Why would he learn about pleasing others when an army of women was ready to serve him for money?Before he could move any further, I sat up and pulled the elastic of his boxer.“I am naked, and you
Maddox’s P.O.V.“I will never leave you, Maddox.”I couldn’t remember the last time I had slept so well. The promise of my Kitten’s assuring tone vanished all my worries, calming my soul. The sunlight peeking through the bedroom windows woke me up naturally as the first thing I realized was the divine feeling of being a mated man. Something I lost hope for long ago.Overjoyed by my luck, I glanced at my breathtaking Erasthai. My Kitten was snuggled up close to me with her head resting on my chest, she was snoring lightly.Her mouth was slightly open and every now and then she would frown or smile, probably depending upon what she was dreaming. Her hair was running wild, scattered on my arm, but still, she was stunning, mesmerizing me with her ethereal beauty.Truly magnificent!I carefully tucked some stray hair behind her hair and looked at the sleeping beauty. She was mine, the lycan King’s Maddox Miller’s Erasthai. I couldn’t be more thankful to Heaven.Kitten’s lips were sl
Shyla’s P.O.V. That damn King! I came to tease him for a good time, and that wizard turned the tables on me. How was I going to please him when he would always behave like this? Maddox was new to pleasuring a woman, but he was good, it would take him a few more tries to be the best. Until then, it was my chance to flex my mastery; otherwise, how would I leave a good impression on him? Wearing no panties was also a part of my plan, but Maddox took it as an opportunity to practice his skill, trailing his fingers over my wetness. Squeezing my knees together, I took a deep breath to reign in my emotions. However, he wasn’t having any of that. He placed his leg between mine, making sure to spread my legs wide open for him. A half moan escaped my mouth as he dragged me closer to me, slowly dipping his finger into my hole. My heart sprinted one thousand beats per second as Maddox moved his wet finger up to my swollen clit and whispered huskily, “Kitten, if I hadn’t seen you givi
Shyla’s P.O.V.What?Shifting?This mind-blowing news was supposed to overjoy me, but I was startled by its timing. Alpha Derrick told me that I would shift after two days, so I had planned accordingly. I thought of clicking pics of the last sunrise as an omega, going out for a walk in nature with Marcel, and then getting drunk with my buddies so that I could manage the pain of the first shift.However, this sudden surprise left me silent, I could only whimper in pain. Maddox grew out of his shirt and shifted in a heartbeat to assist me. Zeth’s cute face shot a prickling sensation up my spine as I heard an exhilarated howl.“Mate!”My lycan, Ash, was up after her deep slumber, making an exceptional appearance. An invisible force rippled through my bones as she tried to take control over me, urging me to hug him.“I am in pain, mate!”Her pitiful cry immediately caught Zeth’s attention. He pulled me into his furry arms, nuzzling my neck. “Don’t worry. I am here, Kitten!Ta
Shyla’s P.O.V.Finally!The moment I yearned from the beginning of our relationship was there, soaring my heart high in the sky. Regardless of my weird shift, I had sharp canines to mark my mate, completing our strong mate-bond officially.The mating ritual, heat, pleasure, everything previously was about me. Now, it was the time to repay my mate with eternal happiness. Taking a deep breath, I calmed my erratic heart and opened my mouth to mark him. However, some rude words rolled out of my tongue instead.“No!I will not mark you!”My heart stopped beating as a lump in my throat constricted my airways, I was unable to scream or react. That ruffian was Ash, she asserted her dominance over me, and snarled.“No, I will not mark a lycan King!”Her hold was so strong that she pushed me back like I did in the past, rendering me motionless. I watched my mate’s glimmering, teary eyes as she squirmed out of his arms and growled before running into the deep forest.“Just stay away f
Shyla’s P.O.V.A secret?But why?My teeny tiny brain was unable to understand Maddox’s perspective as I questioned him.“Werewolves and Lycans can be mates. Your dad has also married a werewolf.Then why should my werewolf status be kept hidden?”Maddox gawked at me, utterly shocked, then he sighed.“You are so naïve, Kitten!”He placed his hand on my face and said,“A born werewolf and an omega turning into werewolf are two opposite matters, Kitten.We don’t know the exact reason why you didn’t turn into a lycan, so we can’t tell anyone about it.Tongues will wag and people will raise questions on your identity, spewing out nonsense.I don’t want you to be insulted in any way.”Oh!Maddox was absolutely right, I totally forgot about this absurdity due to his acceptance. It was indeed questionable that why was I so different from others?The fear of being called as an abomination dried my throat, I swiftly thanked my considerate mate.“You are so wise, Maddox. Thanks for being so att
Shyla’s P.O.V. Ten days later... “Kitten, why didn’t you include me in your plan?” It’s been ten days and Maddox has asked me this question one hundred times, testing my patience. I had repeatedly explained to him the dangers of playing with the devil, but still, I replied to him calmly. “Because it was necessary to catch Prince off guard.” Nuzzling his furry neck, I inhaled deeply, his divine scent soothed my nerves. “Our enemy was so cunning, Maddox. He could sense your relaxation through the bond. I had to be cautious.” “We didn’t mean to worry you, mate.” Just like an obedient mate, Ash added to my statement, “As you have served the nation for centuries alone, this was our gift for you. We wanted to solve the issues and surprise you, mate.” Along with my mate, my Goddess blessed me with my wolf as well, her grace had filled my life with rainbows and unicorns of love. Although there was a ten-day mourning period for the martyrs of war, Maddox couldn’t sit still. He
Shyla’s P.O.V.“The fear of death follows the flow of life. If life is surely going to hell for your loved ones, it’s better to take solace in the arms of death.”Call it my selfishness or the desire to avoid more troubles, I didn’t listen to my mate’s advice and made a decision for both of us, hoping that he would understand my perspective over time. After witnessing the bizarre power of the promise mate, it was obvious that Prince Edith held more power on both of us, interfering in our emotions and minds. His firm control on our bond bothered me. Like we could never have intimacy, never mind-link each other, and never share a moment in peace, he was able to literally waltz in our lives whenever he wanted.If there was a fated bond, where three mates were willing to live together, then there wasn’t any issue, rejecting one of them could end in separation. But the promise mates bond was for living and dying together. So, I opted for death, putting him into a magical slumber was
Shyla’s P.O.V.“Oh, really, Prince Edith?Try me!”It was almost evening and my self-proclaimed promise mate couldn’t understand the meaning of delay in the seemingly simple battle.I glanced at his all smiles face, adorned with the matchless overconfidence, and thought inwardly.“You are really a dumb wolf, Edith.”Underestimating your opponent’s power was a big mistake, and I wanted to applaud for such an insufferable know-it-all Alpha to ignore this simple rule. He rubbed his success on my face before the end, announcing his victory without confirmation. Hayden nodded to give me the signal to continue, it was the time to burst the bubble of that idiot’s happiness. “May I have your attention please, Alpha Edith?”The firmness of my tone finally put a full stop to his laughter, he looked like a joker while laughing in the presence of dead-serious people. As it was the time for him to cry, he spoke generously. “Yeah, carry on, Shyla. I would love to hear your apology.”
Maddox’s P.O.V.Bastard Prince walked towards the stairs of the throne, trying to prove God knew which point. Kitten observed his next move and ordered guards in her Alpha tone.“Stop him!”The guards’ bodies shook as they started acting like puppets, forming a human shield before the stairs in a jiffy. It was the standard response to an Alpha’s command on his pack mates, but watching my Kitten using this authority swelled up my heart with pride. After suffering too much in her life, she was finally able to experience the authority of the masters she served. I always felt awful for her slave’s status. That was why I investigated at length about her mom.It kept me awake all night long, thinking that my rules and wars had destroyed the golden years of my Erasthai’s life. And if it was really the truth, how could I ever be able to forgive myself?Thankfully, heaven saved me from this guilt, lifting heavy weight from my chest. I looked at her in awe as she faced the Bastard Prin
Maddox’s P.O.V.“The saddest thing about the heartache is that it never comes from your enemies. It comes from those you trust more than yourself.”The silver blade shining midair wasn’t the lethal weapon right now, I had seen and endured the blows of several ones. But there wasn’t a chance that I would survive a single stab of it.The true sharpness of this blade was the lack of emotions in my Kitten’s eyes, she glanced at me with such indifference that my lycan already accepted our fate. “Don’t fight back, Maddox. At least, our Kitten is holding this sword. It could be worse than that.” Yeah!It was fortunate that our Kitten was holding justice for her dad; otherwise, dying by the Bastard Prince’s hands would be worse than death. Agree or not, even poison tasted sweet if your loved one served you. And it was my love, my Erasthai, who was going to cut the thread of my life. This was more than enough for a dying man like me. Heaven was still favoring me to let me leave regre
Maddox’s P.O.V. “Kitten is innocent!” Bastard Prince’s eye-opening confession clarified it that it was his vile plan all along. He meticulously took advantage of our emotions and reactions to certain scenarios. The volcano of anger rumbled in my chest, burning me inside out with fiery lava as he spoke gleefully. “As usual, Shyla is busy freeing slaves in the breeder camp. But soon, she will be here and kill you with her own hands, Alpha Maddox. I would love to see your pitiful death. It’s said that: A wound from your soulmate hurts a thousand times more than …” A sliver of dread touched my spine as the mere notion of approaching death dried my throat. I was hell scared of the calamity which was about to strike us. Bastard Prince had skillfully knitted a web of cheat and deceit, disrespecting the blood relationships as well as the bonds of souls. I couldn’t help but growl at him. “How dare you call yourself a King, bastard? You took a piggyback ride on my Erasthai’s back
Maddox’s P.O.V.Unknown supernatural creatures!Trust me, when I used this term, it wasn’t an exaggeration. I was merely stating the condition of the battleground in front of my eyes.After winning countless wars over the course of three centuries, I was well-versed in the variety of the shifters roaming on the Earth. Even interbreed, and unusual couples couldn’t escape my eyes.A lycan could run as fast as a hundred miles per hour, and for a werewolf, it was limited to seventy miles per hour. However, the agility I noticed in new warriors was out of this world. They were faster than lycans, precisely predicting their moves, and successfully countering them. They were literally unstoppable. Their claws were like iron, unbreakable, even I had to hit twice just to cut off a wolf’s head. Although I admired the sight of exceptional soldiers, it wasn’t in my favor. The destruction they caused had turned my victory into defeat.Unable to stop them on my own, I mind-linked Beta Jame
Maddox’s P.O.V.“There’s no message from Mrs. Lockwood.”What?It’s been a week since Alpha Harrison’s death, and I didn’t get any update from Lockwood nanny, although it was a part of her duties to send me a complete report through email. At first, Moira kept me updated as Beta James stayed at the Palace to ensure their safety. Public events like funerals were the favorite timing of enemies to strike because of emotional vulnerability, I couldn’t risk Marcel’s and Kitten’s security at all.Honestly speaking, I was missing that little wolf, he had become a part of my life just because of his cuteness. I simply wanted them to come back home, this unnecessary separation was getting on my nerves. Alpha Harrison’s sudden demise had stirred trouble in different parts of the Kingdom, werewolves, and even vampires were worried about the change in alliances.The disturbance, concealed meetings, and exchange of information among spies indicated that my Kingdom was on the verge of a wa
Shyla’s P.O.V“In the loving memory of Alpha Harrison. A kind ruler, a loyal husband, and an affectionate father …”My teary eyes were fixed on my dad’s grave as my world was under the tornado of intense emotions, I was unable to discipline my uncontrollable rage anymore. The fire of revenge ignited my blood, I swore on my life. “I, Alpha Shyla Harrison, will kill your murderer with my own hands, dad. You will be proud of me in heaven!”Rubbing my eyes mercilessly, I severed the connection with Maddox, blocking him for good. It wouldn’t be long when his neck would be clutched in my claws. Hearing my resolution, Edith sighed in relief, he placed his hand on my shoulder and said,“Thank Goddess, you believe me, Shyla!”His touch didn’t nauseate me like before as he didn’t lift his hand and moved closer, praising me.“It’s true that a Fenrir Alpha can’t be deceived by trickery. You saw through King Maddox’s lies, recognizing his true face at the right time. It’s still not
