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 Once again, he lost to me. Although he thought he would not when he threw me in the bed and climbed over me. He ripped my dress off and I was naked before his eyes, immediately he pressed his lips on my breasts and went down.But I wanted him more than he wanted me. Somehow I turned him over. I would be the one giving the hickeys today. I bit his nipple and I kissed his broad chest, sticking out my tongue to lick him down.He was still wearing his trousers which irritated me. My fingers grabbed the waist of the cloth, and I tore it apart. The shreds fall to the ground.When a female wolf is about to take control, don't underestimate her power. My hands are playing around his thighs. He moaned looking at me with a hint of astonishment. I bet he never thought I could make him this excited and still be on top of him.I let my hands touch what I was looking for, finding his lips at the same time. I wanted him to moan while I kissed him.He got hard immediately and he
LUCIEN'S POV I took one long look at the woman I cherished with more than my life. She looked so radiant and full of Wisdom and vigor. So this is what I would have missed if I had gone to seek a woman amongst the betas because of the belief that omegas are not capable of being anything more than servants.A smirk lit up my face, I was suddenly beginning to imagine how she would be whooping those old men's asses by now.It was about time someone did it though.My eyes reverted to the route I was about to take.While Emily handled the court issues for me I had to question that unknown creature called Abel and make him know while I was allowing him by my side.I had already prepared for the questions I would ask him. And choosing the palace wall was a good idea. At Least he would be pleased to see the whole castle from there and also have the understanding that anyone who falls from such height will certainly die.A smile returned to my lips. My sarcasm amused me. The guard tagging a
AUTHOR'S POV “Wait, you saw what?!” Liam turned his chair to face his brother, Lucas who was playing with his long hair.“Can you be serious and continue with what you are telling me now!” He yelled at Lucas.Lucas huffed and looked at him.“You know I came out of the womb before you, so learn to always show me some respect. “Lucas' little deep voice reminded Liam of his place.Liam made a throat-clearing sound like he did not notice the admonishment. Like it didn't scare him a little.“Fine, big brother. Please can we be serious now?” Liam feigned a pleading voice.Lucas smiled like the baby he was. He jumped off the bed and came to Liam, patting his shoulder softly.“See that wasn't so bad after all.”Liam shrugged off his hand. Lucas went to sit at the table before Liam.“I will re-narrate the story. After our fight, I was coming back to the palace and decided to take the route of the abandoned hut. There I saw a pale-faced man with veins covering his neck and his arms t
AUTHOR'S POV “Are you sure?” Liam was looking at Lucas now.“We have to follow him. We have to go now.” Lucas tried to move but Liam stopped him immediately.“Are you stupid? Remember what the books said, he is a powerful sorcerer to wield such dark magic. If we want to follow him we have to make sure he cannot tell.”“Then how do we do that, smart ass?” Lucas asked, still keeping his eyes on the target.“Let's pretend like we are passing and playing.” Liam slapped Lucas in the head and ran moving towards the stranger.“You are so dead, Liam,” Lucas shouted and chased after him. Liam increased his speed, looking backward. He didn't know when he crashed into the stranger.“Hey, what are you doing?” The stranger grabbed Liam's hand.“Am sorry, sir…” Liam looked up, his own words stuck in his throat.Lucas paused in his tracks also staring at the man.“Sir Mistero, I didn't mean to hit you.” Liam managed to say. “No problem. Just be careful next time” he patted Liam on the head and le
AUTHOR’S POV The windows of the children’s room remained unshot and the boys kept their eyes open while waiting patiently for the day to break. They thought Abel might want to do something terrible in the night. They can't imagine him out of their sight, the thought alone scares them, and that's why they have to keep the window curtains open too. Last night their father had refused them patrolling with Abel and so they had to stay in their rooms and watch his moves.Lucas was agitated but Liam was a bit calm about it, resolving that he might not do anything beyond his control that night after all the day is about breaking when they will be going to where Kalife said and getting solutions to all this mystery. Lucas could not stop pacing around the room. He had paranoia apparently and the whole night he imagined all the worst-case scenarios and he kept Liam awake with vivid descriptions of all of them. Liam wrote down a few sensible ones that were likely to happen to them so they
KALIFE’S POV He stopped running to catch his breath, his hands on his knees breathing fast as we started laughing. First, he found our little stunts so humorously and laughed, his fangs showing and his blue eyes glittering. I always found his appearance alluring and so I smiled when I saw the expression on his face.“We had such a good strategy, that I cannot wait to brag about it to my father when we get back home,” Liam said, still laughing, his voice echoing a little in a quiet temple. I signaled to him, to bring his voice down and he responded immediately.“I know we tried,” I said smiling at him, he felt encouraged and laughed again showing his fangs. Making our way into the temple amidst those two soldiers at the entrance by the left and right is not easy. If not for the distraction Lucas caused, there's no way we would have passed.“Let's get to the library now,” Liam said to me, returning the mood to its original state of seriousness.“Yes, come with me,” I said, turni
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
