ANDY'S POV “Now that you have the deal, you're going to travel to China for the executive's meeting” Andy pointed out, typing away on his phone, probably setting appointments for Ricky.“Ah, yes” Ricky nodded, coming out from the bathroom. He just finished taking his bath and was drying off his hair with a towel.“Should I book flight tickets for Friday? The meeting is on Monday, so you can rest through the weekend” Andy looked up from his phone and flashed his extremely adorable smile at Ricky. Ricky smirked. His best friend was very handsome, and that he couldn't deny. He had always loved his adorable nature.“I think I'll be taking my private jet. I don't want any hassle” Ricky replied, picking out a dry-cleaned suit from his wardrobe. Andy helped him get ready, and he looked stunning as usual.“Great then. Let's get to the office, the staff is already waiting for the new directives” Andy said.They were about to head out when a knock came on the door. Ricky was irritated, he hat
RICKY'S POV “I'm not jealous, I don't know what you're talking about” Ricky answered without looking at Andy. “You know better than to make decisions when you're angry. Think Ricky! Think” Andy said and started leaving the office.“Where are you off to?” Ricky asked, stopping him.“Home. I have to attend to Riley, she called” Andy answered, but frankly, he wanted to go and be with Cassey, who now stays with him.“Okay, but be at the mansion on time tomorrow”“Of course, my Lycan King… And take it easy on the little girl, don't kill her” Andy said, referring to Laura. Ricky didn't say anything else, so he left. Ricky left for his mansion and went to check on Rhett first. The poor man had been brutalized badly, he was bleeding from everywhere, he was left on the cold floor, bare bodied and hungry. Ricky ordered his gammas not to kill him, he was going to do that by himself.“Look at you now, Rhett. What do you gain by running after things that belong to me?” He asked, taking quiet st
THIRD-PERSON POV Since Ricky had ordered for the arrangements for the making ceremony to begin, so Paulina and Gova had a lot of work to do. Nobody was surprised about this because Melo and Ricky were going to get married anyway. “Gova dear” Paulina called, after she was done giving orders to some omegas.“Yes ma” she answered, entering the kitchen.“You're going to the flower shop, I need you to pick out the wedding decorations and bride's flowers by yourself. I don't want any mistakes” Paulina instructed.“Okay ma” Gova replied. Paulina gave her the money and she left for the flower shop............Gova finished selecting everything she needed and was on her way out when she saw Melo walking past, it seemed like she was in a haste. Melo was obviously trying not to be recognized because she wore a brown overall over her dress and dark shades too. Gova decided to follow her and see where she was going in secret.Melo stopped in front of an old warehouse, the warehouse once belonge
“Yes mistress”“Where were you yesterday?” Melo questioned, still shooting daggers at Gova. The scared girl shivered and fiddled with her fingers, trying her best not to look suspicious.“Um… I went to the flower shop” she answered, her gaze fixed on the floor.“Really? And after that?”“No where mistress”“Liar!!” Melo fired, Gova flinched.“I saw you Melo, I saw you leaving from the old warehouse” she revealed and Gova gasped. She wasn't expecting to be caught.“Now you better listen to me, you little twerp, keep your nose out of my business, don't meddle in affairs that do not concern you. Make sure nobody else hears this, if not” she paused and looked around to make sure that no one was watching them.“If anyone hears what happened, I'll have you killed and tossed into a pit and nobody will ever know I did it. If you want to dare me, go right ahead and open your mouth, you'll regret it.Are we clear?” “Yes mistress, I'm sorry” Gova sobbed. Melo was powerful enough to do what sh
“Babe!!” Andy entered the room and met Cassey packing her bags in a hurry. He approached her and held her hand. Cassey who was scared, flung his hand away and continued to pack.“What are you doing? Please stop” he said, struggling with her. They continued to struggle until he grabbed both her arms and held them as tightly as he could. Cassey couldn't get free.“Let me go. I have to go!” She cried, breathing heavily as a result of all the struggling.“Did Rhett contact you?” Andy asked, annoyed by her behavior. Cassey bit down her lip.“Cassey, what exactly do you take me for? Did you think I would sell you off to Ricky?” He asked, letting her hand go and grabbing her waist swiftly. She squirmed in his arms.“You're his Beta” she whispered, sniffing back her tears.“You've been his friend since he was a boy, why would you betray him for me? A girl you barely know” she complained, tears flowing down her cheeks.Andy sighed, he wiped her tears with his finger and hugged her head to his
“Paulina! Paulina!” Andy called, rushing into the hospital reception with Ricky behind him. Paulina and Gova were sobbing on one of the benches. Paulina rushed to them as soon as she saw them.“What happened Paulina?” Andy questioned, Ricky had his head lowered, unable to lift the guilt he was feeling.Andy himself could not believe how much he started to care about a slave, maybe because he knew, how much Ricky really liked her, despite his refusal to admit it.“Well…" Paulina sniffed.“I found her unconscious on Ricky's bed. I tried everything to revive her, but she didn't budge. We had to rush her here, I'm scared she's…" Paulina paused and sobbed.“No, nothing will happen to Laura. She's stronger than she looks” Andy assured, giving Paulina a pat on the shoulder. “What's happening now?” He asked.“The doctor is in there with her. They asked us to wait” Paulina answered.Andy nodded and turned to look at Ricky, who still hadn't said anything yet. He nodded at him, and they went to
THIRD POV The two girls stood there, trembling and scared with no idea how to get out of the dark room. They felt around to see if they would find the door, but Laura stopped when she heard Gova scream."Gova!!" She yelled out, fear overwhelming her. Gova's screams faded until Laura couldn't hear her anymore. She only heard footsteps, in the distance."Rhett is that you?""Ricky?" She called into the darkness but nobody answered her. She was still there for several minutes, tears rolling down her cheeks.Laura felt a hand wrap around her arm in the darkness. She whimpered, unable to free herself from the strong grip. She was dragged out of the apartment forcefully, she didn't see who it was until they were outside."Ricky" her eyes widened. There was a sense of relief within her. Knowing that Ricky wasn't harmed, calmed her nerves. But he was partially cut on his left arm."You're okay," she said. He furrowed his brows at her."Don't speak Laura. Because of this stupidity you call
QWEN POV"Ricky, we are supposed to be planning our marking ceremony, but here you are, messing around with a slave!" Melo ranted, glaring at Ricky with her hands on her waist. Ricky sighed and rubbed his eyes tiredly. He still had a headache from last night's headache and Melo pulling him out to the hallway to rant didn't make matters easier."Melo, do you need anything?" Ricky questioned, ignoring her statement. "Yes, I need my Lycan King to be to actually be interested in our marking ceremony!" She demanded."Look Melo, I've given you what you wanted, haven't I? We're getting marked. Go ahead and plan the ceremony to your taste. I have other important things to attend to" Ricky said in a stern tone and Melo groaned.She wanted his full attention, but he wasn't ready to give it to her. For the past few days, every event has Laura in the middle of it. It's always about her and it's making Melo sick. She can't even remember the last time Ricky called her into his room."What importa
Laura watched all her enemies being put in their place, it was a long journey she had to fight and seated at the large balcony with a good view of the entire pack, she could not help but reminisce on how it all started. First she had to go through pains in the hands of Uncle Lucio after the brutal death of her parents which fate played an ill luck on her. Going to college was not an easy one but Laura thought that all this was finally going to be over when she found out that the Mighty Lycan king feared by everyone was her mate. But just when everything was about falling into place at the marking ceremony, he rejected her before everyone and left her there alone as he fled the pack, Laura felt her heart shattered into tiny pieces that moment, all hope was lost, she loved this man to the moon and back, she thought that this was the moon goddess way of compensating her for all the pain that she had to go through and yet it was just another series of pain. Some glared at her with mock
LAURA Once the doctor left my chamber, I summoned for Elliot who came at once. “My Luna, you sent for me?”“Yes Elliot, were you able to find Gwen?”“Yes we did just as she was trying to escape from the pack through an unknown dungeon, she is now in the cell but there is something else that I think you should know”He spoke and I immediately sat upright, my eyes filled with curiosity. “What happened, is the king alright?”“Yes Luna, he is fine, it is about your maid servant Rosette who is pregnant”“I asked that she remain locked up in her room but have access to everything that her baby might need which included foods and good medication, I am sorry Elliot but I can only release her when I am certain that she won't cause problem for us, did she do anything wrong?”“She was served her meal early this morning and with the cutlery, she committed suicide!”“What!! Why would she kill herself, was she that desperate for power?”“I am sorry Luna, but it is not your fault, you did everythin
LAURAI sat there with all the strains of my bones so weak while I watched Ricky exhaust the last energy in him, he had been tortured by Killian when he first arrived at the riverside and I knew that it was only a matter of time before he finally exhausted his energy. Killian seeing that the rogues were all down and Ricky was contending with the last opponent, immediately rushed over to my side. “Hello Laura, I guess this is where we finally say our goodbye, it was beautiful having you as my Luna and having to relish your body at all times, but this is where it all ends”His words came as a whisper as he tried not to be heard by Ricky, he stretch forth his hand to grab my neck but I bite his hand so hard with the last strain of energy I had in me. “Ahhh!!! You witch!! ” He slam me hard on the face as I fell down, blood dripping from my mouth due to how weak I was, but as he lift his hand to hit me again, Ricky arrives just in time and with one kick, Killian fell off the ground but
RICKY Slowly they came down the hills and was only a few miles away from where I stood with my claws lightly piercing at Killian. My eyes drifted down to her thighs and my Lycan was filled with rage that it was so difficult to control him. Laura's thighs were covered in bruises, it was no doubt that she had been tortured beyond the way anyone could endure. “Why did you had to torture her to this extent, was it necessary, your feud was with me, Laura had no involvement in it”“That is so low even from you, you kept having sex with her knowing that she was my wife, mine and not yours because she stopped being yours the moment you left her so she is involve in every rage that I feel, every pain that I feel is because of the both of you so I am going to keep torturing her until there is nothing left of her”“You were the reason why I had to leave the woman that I love and yet you went ahead to take her as your Luna just so you can spite me, that is how low you can stoop Killian, so for
RICKYAfter waiting for a while and listening to Killian taunting me, there still wasn't sign of Laura, she was the reason I came and I had to act as soon as possible. For Killian, he was Certain that those chains could hold me captive for as long as he wanted, but I was the Lycan and wouldn't remain under his captive. I shifted to my Lycan form and stride towards him, the fear filled his eyes and despite how strong he use to be, the fear could not let him react. The more I came forward, the more he was drifting backward, trying to get away, but my mighty arm clasped onto his neck, I held on him tightly as he gasp unable to breath properly. “You are not going to kill me, you do not have the balls” A disdainful smile filled his expression admit the pain he was feeling from my grip. “I see… Then let's give a try and see if I am going to murder you this time around or not!” My deep voice echoed through the woods like a ranging torrent, my griped on him became more fierce and the fear
KILLIANWe arrived at the river side and spent the night there in the car, but the next day, we were woken by the sound of movement around the woods, slowly I unfurl my eyes to the sight of Ricky walking over to the river side. Although he was still afar, but no doubt it was him. “Gwen! Ricky is here, go and scan around the environment” I called onto her and she immediately stepped out of the car and hurried into the woods. “Looks like he still got some regards for you after all, here I was thinking that he has bailed on you” I teased but as she drifted her eyes over to the woods, a deep frown spread across her face. “Now I am going to enjoy you watch how I end his life, he survived my attack the first time and the toxic, do you think that he is going to be able to survive this time around, I am sorry but the moon goddess won't be on his side this time around”“Killian please, you have me, just go ahead and murder me or do whatever you want, torture me as long as you want, I am rea
LAURA Gwen and Melo was such close friends when Melo was alive, they dreamt so much of the day Melo will becomes the Luna, but I came into the picture and took that dream away her. “Although I know it doesn't count or matter to you right now, but I just thought that I should say it, I am sorry Gwen that my feelings for Ricky had to interfere with everything you girls had planned out for life, but he was my mate, there was so much bound between us and there was nothing that I could do, even if I were to start again, I would fall in love with Ricky again and again and never regret a moment of if”“Doesn't it hurt you that he killed your parents, they were innocent and yet he murdered them in cold blood”“At first I was angry, but after thinking about it for a while, I realize that although he might be the all powerful Lycan king that was feared by everyone within Zion pack, but he was still permitted to make mistakes, he isn't perfect but his love for me is something that I can't den
RICKY I could barely close my eyes for the rest of the night, my eyes filled with worry while I waited for the guards to come back hoping for some positive news, but there was nothing from him the entire night and everywhere felt cold and shallow without Laura by my side. At dawn, I was woken by the servants knocking on the door, they stepped in once I opened the door for them, a new collection of outfit set out for me on the bed. “My king, please pick an outfit of your choice from all of this!”“Are the guards that left the palace yesterday back?” I inquired with my gaze fixed at the window, I had no intention whatsoever in whatever outfit that was set before me, all that mattered to me was Laura. “No Sire, there hasn't been a word from them” The servant girl replied with her head lowered as she did not dare look up while I was speaking. “Leave the clothes on the bed, you all can leave now” Just as they scurried out of the room, another knock came through as Eliot rushed in. “H
RICKYAfter the argument that I had with Laura, I waited for a while but there was no sign of her so I thought that it was only right to give her some space. Until it was time for dinner and I was summoned by the servants that dinner was ready, I scurried to the dining table hop to sort this out with Laura, but she was there. “Where is the Luna?” I asked the servants that stood there with my eyes scanning around. “She is not here my King! ”“What do you imply by she is not here, have you informed her that dinner has been served?”“We tried, but she is not in her room, we haven't seen since earlier today when she left the palace”“What!! ” I felt every strain my hair stand, my heart skipped with fear that this was more than just Laura finding space away from me. “She hasn't returned since she left earlier today and why wasn't I informed of it?”“I am sorry My King, we thought that you were aware when she left and considering that she is the Luna, we can't restrict her movement”“Sen
