EMILY’S POVWe entered the kitchen, like one of the maids since we were dressed like them. We joined the cooking. I wanted to wait for the gossiping to begin but Andy was a master in instigating gossip so she set it out immediately.“The lord's son is so hot now. The army had changed him, I want to marry him right now.” She giggled.“Oh, I thought I was the only one who noticed.” One of the maids took up the gossip immediately.“Oh now everyone wants to marry him. But nobody wanted him when he was goofing around. But the change was so fast. I could even bow.” Some of the ladies gasped. It was obvious to me now, that he was not behaving like he was doing now before. There are many changes in the way he behaves now.He had never cared about anyone even though he was jovial.I came closer for the gist masters to talk more.“I think the weirdest thing is that he helps Omega's now.” One of them said, “he used to hate them a lot. He even beat his mother for being an Omega.”“You can ima
ANDY'S POV“Are you sure you want to know?” My gaze fixed on him.“Yes,” he nodded.“Well, there is only one way. By grabbing some food in the local stores outside.” I took his hand, our fingers interlocked and took him out of the palace.We went to the famous food stall in the city. The queue in front of the restaurant is always long. Some sellers there had to start selling drinks and other things that go along with food so the customers of the restaurant would buy from them in case they were in a hurry.We stopped in front of the shop. And I asked him to wait for the food so I could go somewhere. He agreed and I left.I walked a bit far from the place. I initiated the mind link with the queen immediately.“My Luna, I have news for you?”“Yes, what is it?” She asked me, connecting to the link immediately.“I have indeed noticed strange things about him.”“What is it?” “He cannot shift, my queen but every soldier must shift before he is recruited. How can he not know how to shift and
LUCAS'S POV I saw the back of a man inside the hut, he was kneeling, and his clothes were that of the army. He was moving his hands and I was even more eager to see what he was doing.I slipped in and came close, tapping him on the back. He swung his hand behind him immediately, and I dodged, moving back. He rose from the ground turning to look at me, his eyes were alert and wide open.I didn't care though, I was more interested in the lady on the floor. She looked familiar. He was unbuttoning her clothes. Why would he do that? I came closer. The man blocked me immediately, he was giving me a surprised and confused stare. I summon up courage and speak.“Excuse me but that is my mother's bodyguard. I want to help her up if you don't mind.” “Who the hell are you?” He said to me, staring hard at me. I think he noticed the resemblance between my father and me, and he was frightened immediately.“You are the king's son,” he spoke with fear all over his voice.“Mhmm. Now can I help her up
TRISTAN'S POV “You want me to meet Lionel in his palace and get him to side with you? You are aware Lionel Is a greedier bastard than you are and he will never go against Lucien even though he has all those attributes.” I said, my brow raised. I was seriously finding his suggestion funny“Yes, I am aware, which is why you are important. Carry him along and make him see that Lucien has lost favor with you then fuel his desire to take Lucien down.” Malcom incited me with his sugar-coated tongue.“And later you will kill him and take his kingdom after taking Lucien's own.” he laid his plan out dryly.Malcolm let out his famous crafty smile. He patted me softly on the back.“Hey, I will leave Luna for you and a place for the two of you to enjoy life. I will even get you a magic trick that will make her never remember she met Lucien.” He gave me a thug on my apparel and eyed me like he was blurting out my desire.At that moment all I wanted was to slap him off his fangs and then murd
TRISTAN'S POVI know the piece of cloth is his. I shook my head in disgrace. This man was a shame to a wolf-man like me.“Come out, come out wherever you are,” I said, passing the closet.“Come out Lionel. You have been defeated. Come out now.” I kept moving away purposely. “Enough of the hide and seek,” I left where I was standing to a distance before I turned back and returned to the closet again.Tearing it open, the fat wolf king fell out, on the ground. I grabbed him immediately and dragged him into the extreme part of the room and opened the escape hatch.I looked him in the eyes. “Lionel, for the sake of our old friendship, I will give you a chance to leave but on one condition… Go to Lucien, and tell him that Tristan will come for him next.”The Alpha stared at me in horror, shivering underneath my skin, I forced him down the escape shaft and shut it tight.I breathed. I hope he gets to Lucien on time and tells him, so he can prepare because Malcolm is coming at him in full fo
TRISTAN'S POV “I will do it, I will do anything. If I don't allow you, they will come for me and still rape me before they kill me. I will still be touched by those monsters but with you, I know I won't be hurt that much. "She cut in before I could finish the statement. "Please take it easy on me, I am only nineteen. I don't know anything about this.” Her voice was strong, displaying her bravery but she was scared, that was one thing she could not hide. I felt guilty for what I was about to do but I could not think of any other solution.I took a deep breath and slowly climbed over her.“Just scream as much as you can and always look scared, and broken.”. I told her and she did just that. I kept her in the room the whole night. Her moans and pleas were so intense that Malcolm had to come by and tell me, I would kill her if I didn't take it easy. If I fancied her, I should keep her alive. Honestly, I did not expect that kind of talk from him at all but I was pleased, it meant he
LUCIEN'S POV "You mean to say that they told you he has made a lot of changes since he came to the palace? Drastic changes?” I tried to sum up all Emily was telling me.“Mhmm, the information is too little to work with,” I told her.“I know, I thought the same way too but this morning when they brought Andy back to the palace, she could not move then she suddenly woke up. She had forgotten everything about the mission and denied telling me anything about Abel. Instead, she said she must be drunk because yesterday she was in bed with Abel.”“In bed?” I was fixing my clothes in front of the giant mirror in the room, I turned to Emily, who sat on the bed watching me.“Yes, exactly. She said it shyly but she still said it anyway. I was as shocked as you are. I wondered what happened.”“It's strange. They were never that close, it's suspicious. Like he is not…”“Real.” Emily completed it exactly like I wanted to say.“He is so out of the ordinary. I don't know what to say but it is exac
EMILY'S POV I sat down on the bed thinking of what to do as I waited for him to come back from the court session. My mind replays the conversation we had this morning about Abel.Honestly, I wanted to approach him first at least to have a word or two with him before Lucien came to talk to him.I knew that it was far-fetched to think that I was wiser than the Alpha of this great kingdom but I felt like I could do a thing or two that could set the plan in motion.Tired of waiting, I got up from the bed, bathed and dressed up, and left the room.The deal was this. I was going to talk to him a little and Lucien would say what we had planned to him later.I opened my door and walked out. The female guards bowed to me. Andy was there too. She greeted me and attempted to follow but I stopped her.“I thought I told you to go home. You can be very stubborn, you know.”She bowed immediately.“My lady, please allow me to serve you.” She said, in a defensive tone.“If you don't follow simple ord
EMILY'S POV They disengaged and then I led the way, we walked together into our room. Where Lucien lay.His eyes were half closed but he could recognize us all. He stretched out his hand to Liam. Liam took it.“What is happening? It's been a long time since the family was completely like this. It's been a while since I saw Liam.”He breathed. "We are going to try something. We hope and pray it works.”“What?” "Just watch and see. Be calm.”I stepped aside, Liam let go of his hand and we moved away from him. Lucas closed his eyes and held his father's hand.His essence began to glow in his heart and split in half. We watched with groped hearts and pensive spirits as Lucas shared his essence with Lucien. Immediately it was complete, Lucas slumped on the ground, his skin paled out a little, and his hair turned grey.I ran to him, touching him to see if he was still warm. He was and I breathed in great relief.Liam touched me.“Attend to father. I can handle him.” I nodded and stood u
EMILY'S POV There I'd nothing to say you need not disturb yourself self my Luna”He looked a little my way and then continued driving.“You saw me. At the trance you had in the cave, didn't you? And you didn't fail “ He looked at me and immediately our eyes crossed he couldn't lie anymore.“I didn't, I instantly knew it was not you. But I was carried away for a moment and I almost failed.”"Oh, I see. It's very understandable. He played with our minds to know the secrets we harbor that will lead us to evil if given the chance” “I thought so too. It was a very funny plan though and it works well if you do not know who you are with very well.” Dion Wright said."When we get back, you are granted a two-year leave. Go marry and have a what young man do. That will automatically fix this problem”" Thank you my Luna. I hope that I can find a woman like you” he said lightly.Our conversation ended we did not speak again even when he wheeled the car into the palace. I stepped out and looke
EMILY'S POV The old she-wolf looked back at me. She smiled as she saw the relief on my face. “You have come a long way."I nodded my head laughing.“Well, it all ends here. Remember this before you meet the creature you must not harbor any secret in your heart.”She looked at the bag of weapons Dion was carrying.“You should know that you are not supposed to take that in with you.”Dion smiled and spoke for the first time in hours.“We can't take chances. If there is no need to use it then we will not use it.”“If you say so. Be careful though. I will wait here.”I looked at her. “You are not coming in with us?”“Yes. I will hand you my staff so that it will serve as a symbol to the creature that I brought you but I cannot go in with you. You will have to answer for yourself by yourself.”I huffed ‘This is just great ‘“My Luna let's get going. The earlier the better.” Dion whispered into my ear“Of course” I took the staff from the lady and we began to make our way into the mounta
EMILY'S POVHeartbroken I pulled out of Dion's arm and yelled out into the forest.“How dare you ask me to come here without having the solution to my problem. I believed you existed like you have said and I followed the map. I came here. How can you tell me what isn't true? Does it amuse you to play with the heart of the wounded? Guess you deserve all that has happened to you and your people then ”My tears wet my clothes and My head ached because of anger. Amid my yelling, I heard a chuckle of an old voice.“So you came? I am impressed, Luna. I have never seen someone as desperate as you are. You must love this husband of yours so much."I looked toward the voice, and Dion looked too. An old Woman emerged from the burnt forest. “I am the One who sent you the letter. Honestly, I simply replicated the letter indeed to those I told that I had the cure to the problem. No one had ever honored my invite before and then the city was still in full bloom. I certainly did not expect that t
SOME MONTHS AFTER.EMILY'S POV I carried the baby down and Lucas took him from my hand. He cuddled the little pup and he giggled loudly.“At this rate, we will all be heard," someone spoke behind me, it was Liam, dressed in the robe of his father.Lucas stuck his tongue out at him, “Stop whining about your brother mini-Alpha Liam.”Liam glared at him. And Lucas laughed his ass off as usual." Asshole come along you know we have a patrol this evening and I cannot do it alone.” Liam beckoned on his brother. Lucas excused himself to keep the child inside.Liam looked at me. Who was silently watching them?“Are you going out again?" He asked his voice sober."Yes apparently... I have news that a man in one of the kingdoms in the east has some information that might help me.”He heaved. “Another assumption.”I gave him an accusing look."Mother please get me right, am trying to say I want my father to be healed too, it's just that… it's been roughly a year and a half since he got t
EMILY'S POV" Am what… " I let go of him. And pulled myself up On the bed.“Am with what( am pregnant? How?… I mean how come? I.. I didn't see any sign, there was no sign at all.” Shock is written all over me.Lucien kissed my cheek. “My warrior wife was too busy to notice."Seriously I could not comprehend how I was with child the whole time. And still did not know despite all the stress I went through. So many thoughts were going through my head at the same time. Lucien's came to my rescue.“Stop thinking. You just woke up, nothing is going to make sense for now but by tomorrow morning, you will be more fine. Okay? “I breathed, my nerves still not calm maybe it was because I was very confused or maybe it was because I was sitting in between Lucien's legs and he was staring at me with his cold ecstatic eyes filled with passion.“I missed you so much.” He muttered and my heart fluttered. He kissed me, going deeper. I missed him more and I got carried away, pressing him on the bed for
EMILY'S POV . “Lucien” his name escaped from my mouth the moment I realized he was the one behind me. He smiled heartily. Holding me firmly so I would not fall. “When did you get here? How come you are here?".I asked weakly. 'Let's finish things first we will talk about this later.” He said to me. His voice reassuring. I decided to follow his decision. We both went to find the boys.The forbidden rooms were extra large., We could not get through all of it by ourselves, soldiers were disbursed to search all areas. I tried connecting to them through the mind link but they were not linking back with me.Lucien's tried to sniff them out but nothing was working. I began to doubt that they were in that room at all. The thought left my heart beating fast on my chest. I tried to calm myself but the feeling persisted. Not wavering at all.Lucien noticed my distress, and he connected to me through a mind link and spoke.“Emily the boys will be fine. They are stronger than anything we know of
(SIDE STORY)AUTHOR'S POV The trio bought tickets and went inside. They sat in front. Kalife sitting between them. The movie began and ran for four hours. The three slept through the entire film.When the movie was over they picked up their tired selves and left the Cinema.“Did You get to watch some part of the movie?” Lucas asked Kalife who was stretching herself outside."Nope. The movie was boring as hell."Lucas chuckled nervously. This plan was a waste. What else can he do now?“Whose hungry? I know a place."“Well I think we should head back," she answered.“Come on, Kalife don't you want to explore the city? Let's take a small road trip and then stop to eat at the restaurant owned by a beta called Max Meyers” Lucas nudged her shoulder a little. “Well, I do like a good adventure ” she smiled a little."Alright, let's go" Lucas slipped his hand into Kalife's finger, interlocking them. He pulled her forward. They were running through the streets the next moment. Liam tightened
(SIDE STORY)LIAM'S POV I looked away. Kalife was the traveling type but I honestly did not know she had never been to the cinema. If I did, I would have taken her there one of these days now. Lucas was now the one asking her to go with him.‘Well, it's good, it's not a big deal.’ I tried convincing myself, although I had mixed feelings about the whole thing. As much as I tried to distract myself with the trainers and the games that they were preparing for, I could not help but keep thinking about the idea of Lucas and Kalife going to the cinema together, so I wasn't paying attention to what they were saying again.I remember Kalife turned down Lucas’ request because he told her I wouldn't need to be there.Before they left I took a side glance at them. My eyes spotted their hands interlocking and Lucas pulling her away.I looked sharply at them but they were already running out of the training ground before I could do anything.'Liam calm down. He just wanted to drag her out, it's
