Lilith’s POV

“That’s ridiculous, how do you expect me to believe Ben had no hand in the attempted assassination of my life?” Adam asked, his face plastered with a frown.

I sighed, knowing it would be difficult to convince him. Whenever his mind was made up, breaking through a wall with one’s finger was easier than convincing him.

“I know this sounds awkward, but you need to trust me, okay. Ben is innocent.”

I caught sight of Ben’s eyes, watching every one of us. He had a smirk on his face which was the least expected thing I was hoping to see, considering the severity of the situation.

“Look at him…” Adam said, pointing towards him. “… does this look like the face of an innocent person?”

“And how does the face of an innocent person look like brother? I would love to know so that I can pull away this smirk on my face and replace it as soon as possible.” Ben’s words must have hurt him as he clutched his fist.

The sword made a low clanking sound as it touched the floor after Adam let it

    Lilith’s POVMy head rang multiple times as I couldn’t believe the sight before me. Did Raoul know he would lose, which was why he planned the poison? “My king, should we go after him?” A guard asked.Adam didn’t hear at first, as he was also lost in thought. “Go after him and bring him to me,” he replied, not taking his eyes off the note on the bed.“My king,” another guard bowed, rushing into the room. “The council members have begun to gather, and they request your presence immediately.”“The council members?” Adam asked. “Aren’t they supposed to gather in the afternoon? Why now?”“I have no idea, my King, but they said it’s urgent. They want to see you to conclude yesterday’s discussion. It seemed they were preparing to go for something, and they wouldn’t want to be late.” The guard replied. He bowed out and left the room to go back to the mansion.Something clicked in my head, and I remembered why the council members were in a hurry to meet. It was the day of Raider’s coronation

But soon, my vision became clear, and I saw the white-coated roof above me.Guessing from the way I was, I knew I was lying on my back —on what looked like a bed. One might wonder, “what looked like a bed?” It didn’t feel like I slept on a bed, rather, it felt like I slept on a floor covered with bedsheets.It was hard, and my back hurt.The scent of antiseptic and medicines soon filtered into my nostrils, so much so, it didn’t take long to know where I was —a hospital.Fragments of what had happened to me began to come together like pieces of a puzzle. A mild headache lived rent-free in my head, but it was the least of my worries, getting home was more important.A quick glance around the room revealed that it wasn’t the normal hospital ward a person would be put in on a normal day. Rather, it was big and spacious, almost fit for a king.The

She no longer had a smile on her face and she kept looking in a particular direction.I followed her gaze and saw her staring at an abandoned house. A tear soon came out of her eyes, but she cleaned it up as soon as it did.She stood, her eyes still focused on the house and I took it as an opportunity to talk to Ronan. "What's up with her," I asked."She used to live there with her parents before they were killed."My heart twisted in pain after I heard the reason for her sudden sadness. I walked closer to her and slid my fingers into hers. She didn't move or object, b

What the hell is wrong with you?” I screamed at him.He wanted to speak again but caught sight of Ronan holding his sword dangerously.“I'm sorry, okay, I will make sure the man gets the treatment he deserves.” He left the room, leaving me with Ronan.Sitting on the giant sized bed, I couldn't get my head off what just happened earlier. Raider was already the alpha of the pack and there was little or nothing I could do about it.The last time a person was sworn in as the alpha of the pack, I was not born yet. If that was the way things were done here, then stopping it might prove a little too difficult.“Where is Lilith?” I asked Ronan.“I have no

I moved away quietly, on the tips of my toes, careful not to make a sound till I was far away from them.I wanted to tell Adams but decided against it. He could have taken matters to an extreme length, which could have caused issues for me, since I didn't have proof.Going back to the room, I walked through the dark hall, surrounded by disturbing thoughts which lived rent-free in my head.Just before I got to the room where I and Adams were lodged, a st

It always took all the self-control in me to not scream whenever their bodies came into contact with each other.Today, while they had their training, Ronan stood with me, watching me twist and turn and sigh in frustration each time Dale held her or touched her in any way.“Before your brothers kill you, you will kill yourself with worry,” he commented, resting on the wall beside me.He had an amused smile which stretched across his face. I saw that smile as a mockery of my situation. Why wasn't he feeling sad for me? He was my best friend for crying out loud.“If you are here to mock me, then you might just leave,” I hissed, not taking my eyes off Lilith.“Okay, fine.” He raised his hands up and laughed as we watched on in silence. He soon had to leave, to attend to an urgent business.I wasn't jealous. Why would she think I was? I just wasn't cool with that guy, Dale or whatever, coming close t

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

My heart was seriously thumping loudly in my chest, like a drum that wouldn't stop, pushing me to do something, to respond to the situation.“Adams!” I mind-linked, trying to get his attention. 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.

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.
