Third-person POV

Soft music played in the decorated ballroom as everyone stood with a candle in their hands. The double doors opened, and everyone turned around as Maeve and Ario stood by the door. Ario was dressed in a gold trouser; the bands of the trouser were red, and it hugged his torso tightly. His feet were clad in a traditional gold sandal. His upper chest was bare; it was only the red robe he had on.

The woman fawned as the muscles in his waist flexed. They couldn’t see his body completely, but they knew how muscular he was. He has always been so handsome, and even before he was with any of the sisters, women fawned over him. A lot of women wanted him as theirs, but he fell in love with the princess, and now he is completely off the market.

The men, however, fawned over Maeve. She was also wearing a gold gown. The gown was very long, sweeping the floor. The front of the gown was covered up to her wrists. The waist of the gown, however tight her slender waist, the men salivate

    Maeve POVI sat down on my throne, which Jane designed for the now-royal family. This night has been filled with a lot of shocks: Ario getting three titles, Otto becoming a god at his little age—I can’t even believe it. It seemed like a dream. How did we go from being Alpha and Luna to this? I have been so silent because I can’t stop thinking about how, when, and why. I felt a hand on mine, followed by the sparks. I looked at Ario, who was sitting on his throne, which was bigger than mine.“Stop overthinking,” he said, and I noticed his voice was deeper.“This night has been long and weird; did this really happen?” I asked. He chuckled, and even the way he chuckled. I gave him a long look. He sat on his throne with his shoulders up, his spine straight, his head raised high, and his chuckle was short and elegant.“I am seeing changes in you,” I said, tilting my head a bit in curiosity.“That would be me,” a voice said. I turned to my front, and Bryant stood there looking at us. He is p

    Maeve POV“Thank you so much for today,” I said to Jane. We are finally done with the coronation and after party and now we are all seated in the living room with Jane.“Just doing my duty,” she said, sipping the lemon tea she requested.“So why did you do all this?” Ario asked. She nods her head, smiling.“I did all this because I don’t want what happened the last time to repeat itself because the truth is we can’t help Selene. We can only keep her captive till she is strong enough to let loose,” she said.“So, how does this help?” I asked. “Well, Carson was the first wolf to be ever made, and he was just an ordinary wolf. No special power. The only thing that differentiate him from other wolves was he was stronger, but not to everyone in atena. If Carson was a god or had powers, things would have been different. Selene wouldn’t have gotten to him like she did and a lot of things would have been avoided,” she said.“Are you saying if he didn’t get all this power, Selene would have g

    Maeve POVArio and I walked into the spacious throne room, our robes sweeping the floor. The throne room was quiet as we entered, with the ministers bowing their heads. We took our seats on the thrones.“Your majesties,” they echoed together, and we nodded our heads as they took their seats on the floor, crossing their legs. It’s been 10 years since our coronation, and a lot of things have changed. The first thing we did was change the kingdom name since we were merging it. It is no longer called Tena and Isak; it is now called Cassia.Cassia is now an entire empire on its own; it took a lot of labour and 5 years to get it running on its feet. After breaking down the palace in Isak, the people rebelled; they would attack people of Tena staying on the outskirts, and then Tena retaliated, attacking their people. It caused war; it wasn’t anything serious because people in Isak are all wolves, and I used my command on them. The attacked families of both kingdoms were compensated, and than

    Maeve POVArio and I walked past the dungeon, my heels clicking on the cemented floor. I could hear whimpers as my heels echoed down the hall. It was the whimpers of the locked up criminal but fortunately for them; I am not here for them today. We got to the private area of the dungeon; only hardened criminals stay here. Ario opened the door, and we went to the cell. It’s been two days, and Goerge, Duncan, and Otto just got back, and they brought a guest with them. We got to the cell, and a beat-up guy was tied to a chair, his face covered with a mask.“He is a stubborn one,” Duncan said. I took a deep breath and I smiled. A werewolf. That means I can manipulate him. Well, if he were another supernatural, Ario could manipulate him; all he has to do is morph himself into looking like the person he loves the most, which works like a charm. Ario removed his black mask, and the man looked at us, just shivering in fear.“What is your name?” he asked calmly.“D.dan.te,” he stuttered, sweat

    Unknown POVJane ran to her room, breathing out repeatedly. She was frantic, panicking as she opened a secret door in her room. She entered another room entirely. She sauntered into the covered mirror. It’s been a long time since she did this, but at this point, she had no choice. She removed the cover of the mirror and she was standing in front of the mirror. The mirror was bright, showing her all the small little blemishes on her face. She breathed out, touched the mirror and whispered a word, then suddenly her environment changed. She walked down the hallway, her heels clicking on the hard floor. She couldn’t believe everything happening around her. She thought she could live without her past hunting her, but she should have known how stupid she was. She got to a door and slammed it opened; she walked inside fuming and there they sat, her two worst nightmares. They were both smiling at her creepily, their red eyes booming with evil.“I knew you’d come, mother, but not this fas

    Maeve POVI smiled at Quinn and Otto. She is such a baby to all the men; she and Lily have them wrapped around their fingers, and we all know how spoiled they are. They are not babies anymore, but they are still being treated like babies. Otto is actually feeding her, and he looks happy doing it.“Aren’t you too big for that?” I said, eating my pancake. She smiled at me.“No, mom, and Otto offered,” she said, blinking her doe eyes at me. Sometimes I wonder where she got those eyes, but they are beautiful.“Otto, aren’t you spoiling her a tad too much?” I asked, tilting my head. Odin chuckled from beside me, and I turned to him.“What’s funny?” I asked. He smirked at me.“Don’t be a hypocrite, mom; you spoil her just as we do. Remember when you invited a magician? He stayed so far away from here, and the cost of bringing him here and going back was expensive, but you invited him anyway just because she broke a toe and she was sad,” he said, still smirking at me. I frowned, remembering

    Maeve POVJane’s eyes were wide open as she was covered in blood.“Are you okay?” I asked. She nods her head shakily.“What the hell?” Pa said, standing up. Well, thank goodness, I saw him quickly. Before he could cause any damage, I flung my icy sword at his neck, and he died immediately. I walked to his body, removing the mask from his face. He looked like an ordinary man, but I opened his closed eyelids, and they were red.“Demon,” I said, standing up.“Who will send a demon assassin to kill Jane right in front of us?” Brandon asked.“King Aelle or Selene, one of them or both of them,” Duncan answered. Ario went to the body, searching through the pockets, and he brought out a piece of paper. He opened the paper, reading through it.“That is a little surprising of the things I will do, Jane. You think going to her is going to save her from me? Well, you lie; nothing can save Maeve from me. If you care so much about your precious kingdom, give Maeve to me or slowly watch your kingdom

    Maeve POV“She is okay; she is just in shock,” I heard a voice say.“Thank you, doctor,” Ario said, his hand on my cheeks.“I will take my leave now, your majesty,” the doctor said, and I can hear his retreating footsteps. I opened my eyes, turning my back away from Ario.“It’s not a dream,” I whispered. He didn’t say anything, and that confirmed it. Tears fell down my eyes, and soon I was blown into a full cry. All my life has been a lie; my entire existence is a lie. I judge Selene in what she wasn’t; I am the evil one, and I didn’t even know. This whole time he was my father; no wonder the first time I saw him, he looked at me lovingly, and I thought maybe he was part of the men that wanted to marry me, but it was a fatherly gaze.“Eve,” Ario whispered, lying down with me on the bed.“What will I do now?” I asked, crying heavily.“All this while, I had that power, and I didn’t know. I thought I was powerful; I thought it was me fighting those wars, but it was his; it was his dark p

Pa found a fae woman, and they fell in love. It was hard for Duncan and Brandon to see their father move on, but after a little speech, they accepted. The Fae woman Angela was pregnant two years after they got married; they also didn’t take it well, but I convinced them this was their new life; they are immortals now, and of course Pa is not going to get married for years without having a kid.

    Maeve POV“Damn!” Arthur yelled, totally invested in the game. The game has passed an hour, and none of them is half way yet.“Otto, what did you do?” Arthur asked, not removing his eyes from the game.“Made it harder,” he said, sitting down calmly.“Your son is going to be a wicked king,” Arthur said, and I chuckled. The game is getting harder and more complicated. The clues are hard to find, and if they find them to crack, it is difficult. Plus, the demons that jumped at them out of nowhere almost killed Bryan. Otto made the demons attacking very strong, then the humans attacking used their powers against them, and they have none. The game is extremely hard. Kennet went back to the starting line without his flag; blood was all over him.“Out!” Arthur yelled. Kenneth growled. Well, he lost his flag, so he is out of the game. He walked over to us, shaking his head while breathing out.“Isn’t this too much?” He asked, taking his seat. A guard handed him a bottle of water.“No, it’s per

    Maeve POV“Do you think we are babies?” Bryant asked, glaring at us. It was the next day, and we were with the pillars. We told them about the plan, and I don’t know if they are talking about it well.“You have no choice; who is going to be the leader?” Ario asked. They all looked at each other.“We know you all are not on good terms, fighting each other over the position,” I said.“Still, you have no right to tell us what to do,” Kate said, glaring at me. I know she is not a big fan of my mother and me. She especially doesn’t like her; I remember her telling me Kate never really spoke to her and frowned at everything she did. She was supposed to be the leader, but mother was more powerful than her.“I have every right to tell you, Kate. My mother was the leader; I am her daughter, more powerful than you can ever be,” I snapped at her. She rolled her eyes.“Of course you are powerful; after your mother gave you the title, you didn’t deserve them,” she spat. I smiled at her.“You know

    Maeve POVThe thunder and lightning crashed as the rain fell heavily. It was like the rain could tell my mood and how sad and devastated I was. When the demon king told me I had to kill my father, I knew it was a debate. There was no way I would kill him; there was no way I would look at the man who loved me so much and stab him. The look of betrayal would have killed me, torn me to tiny shreds; it would hunt me day and night. The plan was to get everyone to safety. I wanted everyone to be happy. I didn’t want any deaths on my plate, except for Jane, because I was ready to kill her at any moment. But as I stared at their opened coffins, laying side by side, it was very heartbreaking for me. Father has always wanted her by his side, so it’s only fair I bury them together, even though she isn’t worth it.“It’s time to close up the grave,” Ario said, his arms around my shoulders.“Wait,” I said, looking at my father’s face one last time. Of course, the rain is not touching them. They

    Maeve POV“Yes, it was all an illusion. Attacking the villages, stealing crops, and attacking the military zone was all an illusion Otto created,” I said. And I could tell they were all catching up now. “What did you tell me the day you got married to chaos?” he asked.“First, I didn’t get married to him. It was me getting married, but it wasn’t me; it was a woman he was in love with. We both did it for our father, but we didn’t actually get married. That night I told you I simply loved you,” I said, smiling cheekily. He looked at me, shocked.“I thought you told me something very important,” he said.“It was important,” I said, offended.“So why couldn’t I remember?” I asked.“Because I wanted you to be curious. You sought answers and led me to Selene,” I said.“What?” he asked.“I knew Selene was alive; that was not her I killed. It was way too easy the way she died, but I didn’t know how to track her. But I knew she was watching you, so I made you search for answers, and I tracked

    Maeve POVI stood, looking at her dead body. She was truly dead, and I don’t know how I feel. Happy she is gone or sad because she was still the woman who gave birth to me. I looked at George.“How do you feel?” I asked, my voice hoarse. He blinked. We were the only ones in the room.“Lost,” he said, looking at her. She slit her own throat. She is a coward. I sighed.“I’m sorry you lived a lonely life because of her decisions,” I said. He looked at me.“Why are you apologizing? It wasn’t any of your fault she chose to abandon me,” he said. Who would have thought we were truly related? I never thought about it once, but I saw him as my little brother. When I met him, he was so young, lost, and innocent. I grew a soft spot for him as he stared at me innocently with his doe eyes. He was cute.“I wish you met your father; he would have loved you,” I said, chuckling. Father has a spot for people like George who are naughty, playful, and powerful; they would have gone along so well.“He see

    Ario POVI came outside of our room, heading to the living room. Everyone was here except Jane.“How is she?” Pa asked.“She keeps murmuring father in her sleep,” I said, collapsing on the couch.“She really loves her father,” he said, sitting beside me. I sighed.“I don’t blame her. All her life was a mess. Harold was the only one who cared for her and was there like a father, but he was not her true father. But Aelle is her father; she shares his blood, and he loves her. She must have planned something for this war; Aelle dying was not the plan,” I said. Everyone went quiet.“But why did Aelle take that sword? Jane obviously wronged him but still died for her,” Brandon said. I kept quiet, processing it.“He couldn’t stand watching his daughter kill her mother, the woman he loves,” I said.“It’s too sad,” Odin said, and I agreed with him. We all remained quiet in our thoughts. A lot happened today. After Aelle died, the remaining warriors retreated, running away. We didn’t lose many

    Third Person POVWar covered the palace of Cassia kingdom as men fought against each other, slaying each other's head. The war just started and right now king Aelle was at the losing side as the warriors of cassia charged at them fiercely. It was like they just finished taking a lot of sugar, as their strength and energy can’t be compared to none. They were slaying king Aelle men like today’s bread.“Do not retreat!” king Aelle yelled from his horse. Shouting at the men. He was surprised. He thought they would be resting by now, too weak to fight, but it looks like they have not even trained today. His men were dying.“Archers, get ready,” he said, raising his hand. The archers point their bow, raised high in the sky.“Shoot!” he yelled. They all shot, and the arrows flew but they stopped mid air as a man appeared. He smiled at Aelle, his hand raised. He was holding the arrows.“Hello Aelle, my name is George and surprisingly you are my stepfather,” he said, smiling at him. Aelle look

    Ario POVWe stood in front of the palace. Although we broke it down, we didn’t reconstruct it; we left it like that. But we didn’t break the palace to pieces; someone can still live inside.“Let’s go in,” I said, climbing a rock. Will Selene really stay here? Well, this is the only place in the kingdom she could possibly hide.“Take the left,” I said to the guards, and they bowed. Now it was just Brandon and me. We walked around, trying to get a scent or anything.“Do you really think she will be here?” he asked.“That is what Mabel said; she should be here or she left after finding out, we know,” I said. He sighed.“We really can’t get rid of her,” he said. Well, we all thought she was dead, so I understand him.“But what happens if she is here?” he asked.“Capture her before she causes more trouble,” I said. He scoffed.“Selene is not that easy to capture; she is powerful,” he said. I rolled my eyes.“She is powerful, but I am more powerful, and I have you,” I said. He chuckled.“I
