last update Last Updated: 2024-06-09 05:51:18
Lilith's POV;

Ever since I got here, mealtimes has always been the same, just Adams and me. I couldn't help thinking if that is how it was before my arrival.

I imagined if he eat alone or if there had been another woman, but almost immediately, I pushed those thoughts away from my mind because it obvious that Lexi, my wolf, was beginning to feel jealous.

After Julia told me that it was time for dinner, she walked with me the same way she had always done, and surprisingly, there seemed to be a feast prepared on the table. I tried, but was unable to guess what was going on.

I hadn't thought much about it when I noticed Ben walk up to me, grinning as he made to say something before another voice interrupted him.

"Brother! I never thought I'd get to see your face."

I slowly turned around, the first word he had said registering in my brain. He had just called Ben his brother, and this wasn't Adams, although the resemblance was uncanny. The only difference being that this one had very dark e

    Adams' POV;I was still reeling with anger from the incident at dinner with my brothers, and now it was this?I didn't need to open it to know what it was about. I had a conversation with Ronan regarding this a few weeks ago.Flashback "Don't you think this will pose a problem between you and the members of the council?" Ronan asked after being quiet throughout the drive until we got to the pack, and I had made sure that the royal doctor checked her."Is that what you've been thinking about all morning?""I mean, she is technically a criminal. That's you interfering in Greenforest's personal business. I don't think the members of the council will like that very much.""Does it look like I care about what they think?""That's the problem, your highness. You have to care. If your brother could capitalize on this fact and get their support, then there will be nothing stopping him.""I am the Alpha King!""Your Highness. The real power resides with the members of the council; you know th

I stood up, and angrily left. I felt Ronan walking quickly behind me to reach me, then I spun around quickly, causing him to almost collide with me."Your Highness, you need to be calm
"I scoffed while facing him. It was probably the look on my face or the way I flung my arms wildly. It appeared he wanted to say something but stopped short as soon as his eyes met mine."Calm down? Do these people want me to leave her? And I cannot just stand there and listen to them spew such nonsense. Oh, I should've asked who they wanted me to marry."I hissed and walked away, trying to take the thought of what had just happened out of my eyes. I could still hear Ronan's footsteps behind me, so I turned back and screamed at him."Don't follow me!"He looked somewhat hurt, and a sigh went from my lips as I turned to

    Lilith's POV;It wasn't the way he spoke to me that hurt me, it was the fact that he was right. I was, more or less, a living vegetable.I wondered if Julia had seen that and smiled at herself. After all, she had said that I didn't deserve to be Queen. She wasn't lying. I didn't deserve to be a Queen.Adams deserved much more. He deserved someone who could love him and take on the queen's duties as well as someone who could actually express their emotions. Not a half-dead queen like me.I watched as bubbles formed in the water as a result of the pebble I had thrown into the lake, settling on the bottom.The lake was so clear and blue that it reminded me of his eyes. I could see all the pebbles I had thrown inside earlier. It was comforting and relaxing to do this and what was even more was that Julia wasn't with me. Perhaps she was and had stayed in one corner to watch me, thinking that I was going to do something.She had stuck to following me around, and it was annoying. Earlier toda

Turns out that she was the daughter of a member of the council and had been in another pack far away.I still couldn't tell if she was an Ally or a foe. But she did say that she wanted to be close and, as much as I wanted to, I couldn't ask her why she was staying in the mansion instead of at her family's house."Your Highness, it's time for breakfast," Julia said, breaking my string of thoughts. A small sigh expelled from my lips as I stood up.As usual, she walked with me to the dining area. As I approached the dining area, I resisted the urge to show how confused I was at the sight of the scene before me.There, on the dining table were Maya Crane and the Alpha king, my husband. They were engrossed in a conversation and whatever Adams was saying seemed funny as she was giggling."You're here," she said in between laughter and I nodded as I sat down opposite both of them. She had sat on the seat I normally sat.I shouldn't care abou

I just couldn't.If she wanted to be Queen, then she was free to do so. I didn't have the heart to feel anything for anyone.Surprisingly, during dinner, Maya didn't join us, instead, a maid came to inform us that she was down with Flu."I'm sorry," Adams suddenly blurted out during the meal, and I glanced up at him without a word."I didn't know how to face you after what happened," he said, and I nodded, realizing that he was talking about the night he had yelled at me."Is that why you've been refusing to come to the room?" He said with a raised brow and I glanced at him, keeping my expression neutral."What do you mean?""I got your message from one of the maids that you wanted to sleep in your room from now on."I had never sent such a message and I wondered if Julia had done that.

    Lilith’s POV;Our marriage wasn’t built on love, but it still hurt that he had brought his mistress to the house we shared. He had promised that he was going to give me time to open up my heart to him. It was barely a month later and he was already tired. I scoffed at that thought and finally pushed the thoughts of him and his betrayal out of my mind. It really wasn’t worth it.To make matters worse, he didn’t appear for dinner and neither did she, and I couldn’t help but imagine if he was somewhere with her. There was no word from any of the maids either and Ben might’ve noticed, for he ate with me and, thankfully, didn’t say anything.He seemed like a good person, so I wanted to ask him if what I had heard was right, if indeed, he was after the throne, but I couldn’t find myself doing that.“Lilith!”I glanced up, breaking my reverie and definitely surprised to hear his voice after what had happened the day before with Ben.I stood up and bowed.

As I guided my men into the Green Forest Pack’s territory, I felt the heavy crown on my head.It was a steady reminder of my responsibilities as Alpha, and King of all the Packs. My warriors were nearby, their faces tensed with anticipation, ready to battle, but the deep silence unsettled even the most seasoned of them.“What's happening?” Ronan, my Beta, whispered, looking at the trees as if they might suddenly attack us.“Be careful!” I said, looking closely at the darkening sky. “We might be walking into a trap.”Next to me, Lilith rode, her calmness a source of comfort. She looked at me, and said, “No matter what comes, we will handle it.”I nodded, feeling thankful for her bravery. We had made it too far and given up too much to stop now. Together we moved forward deeper into the Pack.By the time I stepped on the boundary, I expected trouble, but the woods were strangely quiet. I noticed my men sharing anxious

Their threats will no longer hang over my packs and I will not have to be afraid of backstabbers anymore.“We did it, Adams,” Lilith said quietly, her voice a mix of relief and surprise. She moved closer, her bright green eyes looking into mine. “It is finally done.”A huge weight lifted off my chest at her words. “Yes... it is settled.” Our eyes met and at that moment every other thing felt unimportant. I pulled her close, ignoring our friends and the signs of the battle, kissing her passionately.The salty flavor from sweat and dirt dripped down my throat, but in her presence even the bad feelings turned good. We hugged each other tightly, connecting our hearts as one, enjoying the joy of our victory, and fin

She fell onto the grassy ground, but as soon as she got back up, her anger burned even brighter.“All of you are so weak and pathetic. Did you honestly believe that you could possibly oppose someone like me?”“Augustus, you really don't recognize our tr

Lexi caught a quick sight of our mate as he began to change, his body transforming further, his Lycan features gradually taking over.His muscles moved and shifted beneath the bright, fiery fur that covered him. He was a strong and fierce wolf, fully prepared to take charge.“Do not move from that spot, Lilith!” he growled with his voice deep and rough. As he jumped into the chaos of the fight, his strong arms and legs pushed him ahead with great force.I felt a mix of emotions inside me as I had control of my body; I was proud of him for being so brave, but at the same time, I couldn’t shake off the feeling of anxiety and concern.However, I found myself unable to move from my spot. I could

Two wolves fighting each other—a fierce and savage dance involving their sharp claws and powerful teeth.The air was filled with the wild and piercing sounds of battle cries which vibrated through the ground under our feet. I became more alert and focused with each second that passed. “Look over there!” I said excitedly, pointing my finger towards something I recognized among the group of troublemakers.“It is the Green Forest, my home pack! I can’t believe they would turn against us like this. How could they do something so hurtful?”Adams' spoke to me, “Ben has influenced their thoughts in a very negative way. He had convinced them that they would take control and gain power. He will not give up until he has succeeded in tearing us apart completely.”“Then we will demonstrate to them exactly what loyalty really mean

I looked down at the huge army of wolves that had gathered below me.Their fur was shining and sparkling, catching what little light was left in the sky as the sun started to set. The wolves were making deep low growling sounds that combined into a sound like a heavy dark hum that I could feel deep inside of me.I realized that Augustus had finally come, and I could sense that a big battle was about to take place. It appeared as if a dark cloud was hovering over us ready to unleash terror at any point.“Just take a look at them,” I said quietly in a whisper, as my heart beat loudly in my chest. I turned to Adams, who was standing right next to me.He appeared completely unfazed by what was happening. I noticed that his striking blue eyes were fixed intensely on the dark wave of people stretching out across the field and I couldn’t help but admire how calm and collected he

You are a brother to me. You were one of the good people in our pack!”“There is no connection between us, only the pursuit of power!” he exclaimed with anger, with his eyes narrowing in a way that showed an intense bitterness I could hardly recognize.“And you, my dear King, are blocking the path forward. You must make your choice carefully and think it through.”“Choose death instead of being a servant?” I laughed bitterly, anger burning inside me. “Do you really think I’d submit to Augustus? Tell him to stick his offer somewhere. You’ve become a worse person and his darkness will swallow you just like it has your soul!”“No!” Ben shouted loudly with his voice filled with anger and frustration. It was as if a dark and

These walls had once been alive with the noise and excitement of battle, filled by my brave ancestors who were skilled archers ready to protect our land from any invaders.Now, however, darkness surrounded us completely and a thick silence pressed down on our group of warriors. It felt strange and unsettling as if we were all holding our breath together, both the defenders standing ready and the shadows that seemed to inch closer and closer to us.To my left was Ronan. Right now he looked very tense. His usually bright and lively eyes were narrowed, and he was carefully looking out at the land in front of us, searching for any signs of movement.All around, the generals and captains of the Bloodhound Pack were standing in a tense way, almost like tightly wound bowstrings. Their muscles were tight and pr

Feeling the need to give them some space, I took a step back and gently let go of Lilith’s hand.It was as if something heavy settled into my chest, making me feel a bit sad. I then spoke to her, “Now you should go. Make your way back to the palace and make sure to stay near Adeline. I need to handle some important things on my own.”“Please be careful my dear.” Lilith's voice shook just a little bit as she looked deeply into my eyes and I could see a mix of concern and love in her expression.I nodded my head slowly, fully realizing just how much fear was reflected in Lilith's eyes.
