Arthur I woke up with the sun in my eyes, more perplexed than ever. I sat up with a groan. My whole body hurt. I was lying on my bedroom floor. It seemed I slept through the night, which was surprising considering I couldn't sleep these past few days. What happened?I couldn’t recall for some rea
He searched my eyes with his. “I don’t like seeing you this way, Arthur. You’re not this man. You’re not a monster. You try to prove this to the whole world but I’ve seen you as your best. I know who you are.”“You knew who I was,” I said, emphasizing on the word ‘was’. “Ever since I lost Olivia, I
Olivia The way the Alpha King looked at me crushed me. I thought that perhaps things would have changed for us. Josh told me that I was his second-chance mate, after all, and that was the reason why I decided to stay. I was convinced that nothing would change my mind but being his mate made things
But that wasn’t quite true. I had seen his generosity with me. He had treated me fairly and without any bias. I was disguised as an unattractive slave, after all, which meant that he saw something in me aside from my looks. I believed that he had the capacity to be a good man. A kind and generous l
Olivia The Alpha King was seated on the throne, and the head witch Emma was standing beside him. Only, she wasn’t just standing there. Her body was a little bent and she was whispering in his ear. Her eyes were on his face as she spoke to him. Almost intimately, at that. A storm raged inside of me
“Leave,” he barked. And so I left. When I reached the slave quarters, I almost broke down. My plan had gone horribly wrong. My attempt at getting close to him was shut down. That was what it was. Before, he told me I could consult him for every decision he made. Today, he practically forbid me fro
Arthur Emma snickered when Anna left the throne room. "How ridiculous," she said after her fit of laughter. "My, my! I've never seen such an audacious slave before. This is your fault, my King. I know I am being too frank with you, but that's the truth. You gave her too much attention for your own
“What if he is incapable of forgetting the first mate?” I asked, gulping. Speaking of Olivia always brought me pain. “What if he doesn’t have it within himself to move on?”“That is also not possible,” she said in a low voice. “There are rules to our world, Alpha King, and they cannot be ignored. If
This was a significant moment for all of us. We had our own meeting ceremony just a week ago. There was no reason why we couldn’t renew our vows and be mated in front of the whole world. I officially became Luna Queen, yet everyone always called me Mother Luna. It was a title that inspired hope in
Olivia So the rogues took over my kingdom, and after that there was only peace. My aunt daisy, who was taking care of the kingdom for me, decided to come live here with me and Arthur. She was disappointed when she found out what her daughter had done. She didn’t know anything about her plan, but
Arthur’s brows shot up. “So you have your old memories back?” “Yes,” I answered, smiling. I was seeing him with different eyes now. He was my Arthur again. And I had missed him. I had missed this memory I had of him. He came over to my side and embraced me. We held each other for the longest time a
Olivia When Bambi returned to tell us that everything had worked out according to plan, I fainted. I was so relieved that everything had worked. I could hardly believe that I managed to convince the Captain to trust Emma to cast the spell on the fake Olivia, a spell that the goddess whispered in
I could very well be wrong. “What if I told you that I received a better offer?” he asked curiously. “What would you do then? How would you convince me to take your offer instead of the one I received?” “Impossible,” he said. “There is no better offer than mine.” “How can you be so sure?” he ask
Arthur I looked at the Rogue Captain. We made eye contact. When he was here the last time, he made it clear that he wanted power. He wanted a place where he could rule his people and not under some tree. That was what he said. He believed the rogues didn’t have any representation, which wasn’t
I frowned. This made Darius smile because he knew something that I didn’t. He said, “Surprised? You should be. I spent months under this very roof and you didn’t even see me. What kind of Alpha King is that? You posed a threat to all of our people. You were a bad King, through and through.” “Not wo
Arthur Upon arriving, four days after we left the campsite, I quickly realized that something was terribly wrong. There was too much agitation around the city. People looked around hesitantly like they were terrified. I wasn’t paid any attention to because I was dressed in rags. I had to find new
She turned and looked at me in surprise. Then, she began to cry. She put her head on my lap and cried. I could only stroke her head. I was grateful that she was here, alive and well. At least she wasn’t dead. “What happened?” I asked her even though I had an idea. Alice shook her head. “They rou
