EMILY'S POV

“Emily lookout!” he shouted, I wasn't fast enough. When I finally did, the arrow had gotten to me already. I stared, waiting for it to hit me but at the last minute, he grabbed me and flung me out of the way.

The arrow tore into Tristan's arm, blood spilling on me as well. We both landed on the floor.

Tristan grew his claws immediately, his eyes searching for the perpetrator.

We could hear the sound of men on foot approaching, even I became alert as well.

The bushes before us began to shake and the soldier leaped out of it immediately. All draped in the color red and sticking out long fangs. The instant they saw Tristan, they stopped and bowed.

I was surprised but he did not move at all.

One of the guards rushed out and embraced him. They made familiar pats on the back and then the wolf soldier said.

“Sir Tristan please allow us to escort you and have your hand healed. We are deeply sorry for the wounds.”

“It's nothing. I am happy in fact, it shows all your trainin

Tristan walking up now before me, a bandage on his left arm.“My king.” He greeted me.“You are finally back. It's been so long.”“Eight years my king. It's been Eight years.”I smiled and got down from my throne, coming close to him. We embraced each other tightly.“You have gotten stronger my king,” he said.“And you have gotten much weaker,” I told him then whispered. “How did it go eventually?”“We found her and the children but we also found trouble along the way.”“Trouble? Wait, Children?” I was both shocked and confused. But I kept a plain face.“We need to discuss this privately, Mr Alpha,” he whispe

    LUCIEN POVWe both rose in shock but Emily was faster to yell. “Come in, Sir Tristan.” The door opened and he walked into the room. Immediately he saw us, he bent his head down so as not to look but there was something about the expression on his face before he bent his head and I was not sure what it was but it wasn't the look a soldier should show when he sees his alpha.“Where did you find her?” I asked him.“In the dark wood of Siri. She is being protected by the Men of the rogue wolf king of Siri - Leo Dore. Our scouts reported the movement of Dore's soldiers in his camp. It seems that they are preparing for attack and perhaps they think they will win by taking over the powers of the twins. For them to not have attacked shows they are yielding no fruit yet.I asked the sorcerers here and they said that as long as she has not started the collection of power rituals, the children will not be harmed in any way.”Immediately after he said that I felt the tension leave Emily's body

    LUCIEN POVI stared towards her but, giving my back a side glance, I saw Tristan, he was the one she was staring at, he was shutting the door, and certainly, he glanced at her before that door closed fully.I pulled her chin to face me and kissed her. She was surprised.“Did you wait too long?” I asked.“I don't care how long I have to wait as long as you will come. What is happening? Did you find her?” Her voice was full of concern.“Yes. We leave in a few hours. The soldiers are just preparing for the departure. I want to be here a little before I leave.” She spread out her arms and I sank into them, climbing into the bed as I did. She let me kiss her again. “I missed you and am not angry at you surprisingly,” I said amidst a chuckle.“Thank you for loving a lowly girl like me.” She said softly.She was warm and sincere - I missed hearing such good words. I stayed with her for the rest of the day and then Tristan came to inform me about the soldiers waiting to move out. I bid her

He rushed to me and tried to help me to my feet but I stopped him, pointing at the boy lying next to me, face down.“Take him first. I can keep going myself as long as I stay in my wolf form.” He bowed and went to the boy. Picking him up from the ground. His head was bleeding but he was healing fast.The general met us almost immediately. He was carrying the second boy in his arms. I looked at the two children… they both had my face but their mother's eye. It warmed my heart too much to see that. I wanted to hold them but I could not even stand. Thorson and Tristan stepped back as I returned to my wolf form. I gestured to Tristan to get on my back with the children. He did. The rest shifted like me and we began to leave the desolation of dead wolves. It was breaking dawn already. The light of the day revealed us and the blood that stained our fur as we went down the thorn bushes we cr

What happens when he is at full strength?Shivers curled down my spine. I got a little scared immediately. I slipped out of his grip and scampered away to wash up. When I stepped out of the bathtub, he was awake and sitting on the bed. His shirt was nowhere to be found. “Taking a bath without me again. You are still running from me, even after last night. What are you hiding, I ve seen everything.” I cupped my face and turned around.He is at it again with his sultry words.“I just want to go the children early. I want to be with them, they are still adjusting.” I said shyly.“Fine, once again you win. Okay, it's because of the kids. I will catch you… later,” he said, absolutely not like a goodbye. I ran to the closet and looked for some of my clothes. I found a few. I flashed my eyes around; there was no way I coul

    EMILY'S POV “Please don't do this, please. I didn't do anything to you please stop please.” I begged, tears flowing freely out of my eyes but she was completely deaf to my pleas, scooping up more sand and pouring into the hole, I struggled to my feet attempting to run to one or the ends of the whole and climb out but each time I tried, she rushed to me and hit my hand. Eventually, I got too sore to even lift them. My legs are too weak to carry me. The sand was filling the hole and she was laughing maniacally at me. All I could do was cry.I looked up at the moon's goodness and I prayed silently. “Please Lucien help me. Lucien… Tristan.” Was the last name that left my mouth before the sand covered my head.I was suffocating. I was sure I was going to die. I hoped Lucien would take care of the children and I still wanted to say something to Tristan. I almost went cold when someone grabbed my hand and pulled me out of the sand.I felt my body jerk out and fall into someone's arm

    LUCIEN'S POV “Tristan, I am only being patient with you because we have a history together. And am only letting you go because you have been loyal. However, You coveted my wife and that is not something I find funny at all. Whether I am nonchalant about the affairs of my family or not, is none of your business, Tristan. For the sake of friendship, you are suspended from your duties as a chief of my guard. Until I say so, you can not return.” I gulped down the lump in my throat. The expressionless gaze he kept on the kneeling Tristan was chilling my bones and slowly bringing me to understand that I was being selfish. Trying to keep two men under my wings; one I loved and the other that I was sexually attracted to. I knew then that Lucien was the one I lived with but I had never been tenderly touched the way Tristan had touched me. I should have just stayed with Lucien inside gently instead of following that disguised maid outside. I felt a sore feeling in my stomach, a fe

I was not this big of a headache when I was growing up.While I was lost in my thoughts, General Thorson stepped into the room and his heavy footsteps brought me back to reality. I looked up to him as he bowed before me. “I had everything ready, my king. Soldiers stationed In all streets to make sure nothing happens.” He reported.“Alright.” I stood up immediately and the two of us headed outside. Today, I decided to go on an inspection around the capital city. A strange rumor had been in the air for a while and I wanted to see for myself, the man who was boldly spreading them. Tristan was still suspended and so I was going with the general. We had disguised ourselves in ordinary clothes and left the palace through the

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

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

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

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.

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.
