Hello there, I hope you like this chapter. Please tell me what you think in the comment section. Thank you so, so much! Enjoy reading!
Matteo "Baby, wake up," she opened her eyes and hugged me while crying. I was about to sleep and thought she would not have her dream this time, but before I closed my eyes, she started screaming. I got up and tried to listen to everything she said but I couldn't understand anything. I couldn't bear to see her like that, so I decided to wake her up. "Shhh, I'm here baby." I said as I gently stroked her back and she continued crying. "I saw it," she said. "I saw a Lycan kill my parents." She added and cried, squeezing herself into me. My heart broke seeing her like this. Whoever did that to her parents will die at my hands. Ever since she had a dream but couldn't remember anything after waking up, I always prayed that the next time it happened she would. But now, I regret it. She was vulnerable like a child who couldn't help but weep. "I'm sorry, baby. I didn't know your dream was like that. I'm here, always." I told her and she nodded her head. "We will find out who it was that kill
Third Person "It was clear, dad, she remembered how her parents and pack died." Matteo said. "A Lycan with rogues attacked them and killed everyone in their pack. If not for her mother, she would have died too." he added, as the king nodded his head in agreement. He was now certain that someone from the palace had something to do with it, so she looked at Freya, "Unfortunately, I still can't remember who mom and dad talked to when we came here to seek help." she said, as she already knew that he would be asking her about it. She started to feel regretful that she couldn't remember something as crucial as that information and had been trying to recall her memory. She thought that her brain must have suffered too much from the loss of her parents and was trying to control her memories so she wouldn't get hurt much. "I remember in one of our lessons back in the Midnight Pack that our brain sometimes prevents us from remembering something that will cause us pain, just like what our wo
Freya โCongratulations!โ I told Alec and Clay. They are done with their training and in two days, they will be taking their oath. I am excited because I know how much this means to them. They left the pack for me and even when Alec found his mate, Clay was still alone. I admit that in the event that Matteo had not found out about us being mates, I would gladly take him as my chosen mate. He is a good friend and brother to me even though I am a year older than him. โThank you, her highness.โ They both replied, smiling. Camilla laughed because she knew I didnโt want them to call me that way. But since there were other omegas around, I would let it slide. I wanted to be respected by them, so I had to set boundaries. I had to show everyone that I was their Luna and future queen. โNow that you're both ready, we will discuss some important matters. But it has to wait until you're done with the oathtaking,โ Calvin said, and the two nodded. I am very happy that they are with me. My parents
Matteo Dad and I talked in his office while Freya was with Calvin and her friends. Iโm sure that they wanted to be together now that they were done with their training. Giving my mate time for her friends made me jealous, especially when it was about Clay. But no one can blame me since I caught them kissing. Well, it may have been before we were together. However, the fact that she was aware that she was mine and still thought of having a chosen mate made me feel this way. But I wanted her to be happy and I knew that being with her family and friends would do the trick, so I had to be understanding. Plus, I already knew she loved me. Dad and I agreed to organize an event for the entire kingdom where everyone must attend. We wanted Freya to meet everyone in the palace. We wanted to see if she could remember the person who entertained her and her parents when they visited 9 years ago. I would like to know who it was so I can punish him. They prevented me from seeing my mate. What if I
Third Person They arrive at the Crimson Pack the same way they did at the Midnight Pack before. But Matteo reminded the Alpha not to exert so much effort, since they are not spending time there for pleasure. They will have a meeting about the kidnapping case in their region and an extravagant welcome for them is unnecessary. Calvin, Matteo and Freya were in the same SUV and discussed the incident as they traveled. 3 other vehicles followed them with the palace warriors. They wanted to be prepared so they would know what they would tell the Alphas and be prepared for the action they would take to solve it. โWe will stay there for at least 2 weeks, depending on our investigation," Matteo told Freya. โItโs OK, they need us so we have to be there for them," she replied. โThe Alpha with a son was very worried. They were thinking that their sons could be next.โ Calvin informed them. โThey are the future of their pack, so it was natural.โ Matteo replied, โBut what if uncle has something
Freya This is going to be difficult. I never thought the royals would have had this kind of dispute for decades. How would we defeat Matteoโs uncle when he was supposed to be king? Even if he loses to the current king, it doesnโt mean that it was all that happened in the past. I also know that the king will never tell me more than what he has told us. I hope that it was all right though. But I understand his anger at King Marco. We canโt deny the fact that he is the first born and has the qualities in terms of strength and power necessary to be a king. We have to think and discern what he needs with the pups if he was really behind the kidnappings. Who wouldn't be furious since his throne has been taken away from him? Even though the king fought for it fairly, it was still enough reason for him to feel angry. Iโm pretty sure that he was told he was going to be king when he was a pup. And that will definitely drive everyone to do something beyond what is right. Matteo was worried as
Matteo This is bad. Camilla has been kidnapped and Alec is furious. Freya was quiet but I had a feeling that she was blaming herself. This is because she wanted to go with us but my mate said no and wanted her and her mate to spend time together. They were both close to her and Freya only wanted them to be more intimate while weโre away since they wonโt be able to do that once we return. They were both assigned to assist and protect their princess so they will have to be on their guard all the time. This was supposed to be their mating time and we are excited to return thinking they will have their pup after. โFreya, dear. Please donโt be anxious, itโs not your fault," Dad said. He was there when Camilla insisted on coming with us. โYes, her highness. Itโs not your fault.โ Rapha continues. โBut, if only I brought her with us, she would be here now.โ My mate replied in a low voice. I hugged her and rubbed her back. I didnโt want to see her like this. โWhere is Alec?โ โHe is with
Matteo Alec's anguish echoed through the room like a thunderclap. His desperate cry filled the air as he paced back and forth, unable to contain his worry and fear. "No! I have to do something and find her. I can't sit still without seeing her safe and sound," Alec shouted, his voice raw with emotion. His fists clenched and unclenched as if trying to release the pent-up frustration that threatened to consume him. His eyes, usually filled with confidence and determination, now brimmed with anxiety and helplessness. I watched my friend's distress, my heart aching for him. I knew precisely how he felt, and it was as if a heavy cloud of despair had settled over our pack. Being separated from your mate felt like a death sentence, a cruel twist of fate that left you incomplete, unable to manage or function properly. Our inner beasts, the wolves within us, would undoubtedly go feral if we didn't take swift and deliberate action. Alec's mate, Camilla, had been taken from us, and the void l
Freya I am the happiest. Everything has ended. King Marco had died. After his fated mate died, heโd gone feral. He couldnโt think properly and just went on a rampage. Maybe many would think how come he was like that when he already marked someone else. But the truth is, he never was. His mark was from his true mate and everything that everyone was seeing was just a spell cast by his mate. Sheโs strong because she managed to pull that for a very long time. They had not deceived not just one person but everyone in the palace. All along, they both used Ronaldo as a diversion from their plan. So there will be someone who will take the blame or become their scapegoat when they decide to release the spell. Unfortunately for them, my mother was also a witch that specialized in rejecting spells. It was what she taught me when I was a child. I donโt know if she sees the future though. He made my adoptive parents come and get me to where they found me even before it happened. And the portal
Matteo โIโll take care of the witch,โ Freya told me through our link and ran away. I know that sheโs strong, sheโs a silver wolf, so I donโt have to worry about her. But sheโs my mate and I couldnโt help but feel that way. I had to settle things with Marco about what he did to my father, so I ran to him. He and the witch were together and even if I had to deal with her because of what he did to my mother, I knew that my mate would want to have a piece of her too. Another is, she will be able to handle her since she was also a witch herself. โYou dare to fight me? I took care of you and this is how you repay me?โ Marco said while he was waiting for me. I could feel King being so angry, he was uneasy this past few weeks and I wonder why. Then earlier, he told me that he felt that a war was coming and this was it. Marco shifted and ran, meeting me halfway. His Lycan was big, but mine was even bigger. He may have the power of kingship, but I am the son of a true king. And without a wor
Third Person โThis is insane, I never thought that the time when I had to fight the palace would come.โ Calvin said, โMy father had fought for it, defended everyone inside it and here I am, fighting the king himself.โโ he added. โJust as I never thought that the father I know and grew up with was not actually my father.โ Matteo replied, โThat I thought I was the king but wasnโt.โ Everyone looked at him, they were in Marcusโ mansion having their preparations in attacking the palace. After they found out that Rapha had been captured, Matteo and the others went back to the mansion and talked to Marcus. He was furious and at the same time, worried for the defense advisor. He called Calum and asked him to gather their warriors. โYes, my Lord.โ he replied and left. Matteo followed him with his gaze and so did the others. Marcus noticed it so he said, โHe has been with me for a very long time now. Right after I left the palace to be exact.โ โAnd he never left you?โ Matteo asked, curiousl
Third PersonThey went back to the Crimson Pack later. They are all speechless and canโt think straight because of the revelations that Marcus, the Lycan rogue, claiming to be Matteoโs father, had told them. They couldnโt believe, especially Calvin and James, that Rapha had been lying to them all this time. They never expected him to know so much about the past story as he was always quiet. The only time that they saw them talking was whenever he was with the previous queen, but they didnโt think anything suspicious because King Marco always asked his mate to go to him and do some palace business.โLetโs just call this a day,โ Freya said. She knew how feeling down everyone was because of the things that they needed to take in one go. She herself couldn't believe that the palace had so many secrets. She looked at Camila and found her head down while Alec was holding her hand. โCamila, none of these things should affect you. You know nothing about it,โ she told her.โBut my uncleโโ she
FreyaโYou are my son.โ The Lycan rogue said. I looked at Matteo and I didn't think that he could still understand everything that this man in front of us was saying. Calvin and James were shocked as well. I mean all of us were. Just what in the world was happening? I looked at the man again and I saw nothing but sorrow on his face.I looked at Camila to check whether she knew anything about this but by the shocked look on her face as well, I could tell that she had no idea about it. Only Rapha knew this and he didnโt tell Matteo. He even worked with the king, whom he had a good relationship with. Goddess, King Marco trusted him!โThis is hard for you, I know that,โ the man continued. โBut believe it or not, I have no intention of harming any of you.โ โWhat kind of joke are you pulling?โ Matteo said angrily. โI am telling the truth,โ the man replied,โWhat makes you think that weโre going to believe you?โ Calvin couldnโt help but asked,โYou would have been dead by now if I had been
MatteoWe were about to attack the enemy's hideout but before that, Rapha called and asked me for something impossible. He said someone wanted to talk to me and, if possible, I had to be calm. How the hell am I going to stay calm when I find out that it was my uncle who wanted to have a word with me? This is insane and I donโt know if I am going to do what he said. He also told me not to tell dad about it and decided after I heard what my uncle needed to tell me.โWhat if it was a trap?โ Calvin asked,โWill Rapha put you into that kind of situation?โ James asked too. I looked at my mate and she was quiet. I wanted to know what she thought so I waited for her reply.โI would want to believe in Rapha,โ she said, which made everyone look at her. โI know I barely know him, but I never feel threatened or scared whenever I am with him. And look at Camila, sheโs with us. He would never put her life in danger. We saw how he was and how he looked when we had no idea where she was just recently
Third Person I lost the challenge and my title was handed over to Marco. I had to control myself after that because he marked my mate as soon as he assumed the throne. I was planning on getting her back and everything that he took from me, but I had no one to back me up. Everyone was siding with my father although they didnโt like Marco, but for the simple reason that he was not the first born. I tried to gather some alliances within the palace but I failed. They believed Marco and after a few more weeks he already had their loyalty. I lay low before I left the palace. I became a rogue and even if I was alone, no one dared to get their hands on me since they felt that I am strong. Driven by my anger, I tried to gain alliances outside the palace. I managed to get a spy inside and he reported everything to me. I didnโt know that I would be able to get his support though. I didnโt know why he decided to help me as well. But I am thankful that he did, because if not for him, I wouldnโt
Third PersonThey are relaxing. Just what was wrong with them that they managed to conduct a tournament and enjoyed it? Donโt they feel threatened at all? I think I need to make them feel the threat that was about to come to them. I canโt wait to see the agonizing look on their faces. They took what was rightfully mine, so I will do the same. My title and my mate, the chance of having my own family. He should have been my son and not his. I should have been the one who would pass the throne to MY SON and NOT HIM!โMy Lord,โโAre you sure about that?โ โYes, my Lord. They actually had a mini-tournament in the Crimson Pack and were all enjoying themselves. I donโt think they have any idea about us yet.โ Calum, my right-hand man said. He reported to me about what was going on with Matteo and his mate. I had to admit that he had been living a good life, trying to follow what his father had taught him. But I am not going to let him do as he pleases. I had to do something about his calmnes
FreyaAlpha Jake has a point. We canโt leave that possibility out of the equation. If there is something the enemy needs, it is a hideout away from the eyes of any species which they can move freely without hesitation. They need somewhere away from the eyes of humans as well, because we all know how humans' mouths are. They will definitely spread about whatever they find in the woods or anywhere they have been to or seen things from.โThen I am going to check it out with my warriors, let someone from one of yours who knows the place come with us and lead the way.โ Matteo said, Alpha Jake nodded his head and thanks to him, we might be able to end everything sooner. If what he said was true and we apprehended them in one go, then I hope we will end Matteoโs uncleโs madness in no time.โI didnโt want to get ahead of myself but I want you to be ready as well.โ I told him and the two looked at me confused. โIf what you think is correct, Iโm sure that our enemy had already planned their esc
