Freya's Pov I was in my room arranging some things since there happened to be two rooms for us. Also, it seems we'll be staying for a while so it's only advisable for me to arrange my things with the time I get just so I'll quickly be able to reach anything that I need without wasting much time.My eyes fell on the rose which Xaden got for me the moment we walked out of the airport and I smiled. I walked to my bed, sat on it and picked up the rose.It really had a nice memory attached to it; something I will always remember even after leaving Paris.Just thinking of Xaden’s handsome face, smile, charisma, the manner in which he speaks and how he romantically handed the bouquet of flowers to me, made me smile so much that I could feel my cheeks going red.“Why am I blushing so hard? I shouldn't feel this many butterflies too quickly.” I said to myself with a smile as I kept thinking about him.From the flowers he had given to me, my mind drifted to the lovely moment we enjoyed togethe
Xaden’s Pov It was quite surprising to see them here, but then, I had to act like all was well. Besides, it wasn't like I acted badly to them personally.“We're sorry for getting here a little late. I believe we can all start now.” The man said with a smile on his face.“Yeah, sure.” The others said.We all re introduced ourselves again and got into business.“So, what business are we talking about here?” Mr. George asked, looking ready for official talks.“About the fashion industry. We've got to brainstorm to bring about something really nice that would mind blow everyone in the society.” One of the business men spoke.“Most times, when I want to bring about a new product, what I do is to look at what others have done recently, then I tell our mastermind in the company to also make some research about what seems to be the current need of people. Sales always turn out well once we do that.” “I see. That's really nice. Okay, regarding mine, we use the perfect models for our fashion,
Freya's Pov The next time I felt conscious, I could feel my body was on something soft and not on the floor like I had expected to find myself on.So, I slowly opened my eyes to find out where exactly I was, and the first time I tried to open my eyes, the sun rays stung me and I closed my eyes back with a piercing pain.Was it morning already?I tried to open my eyes again and this time around, it had adjusted to the light. Surprisingly, I was on my bed and in the hotel room. “How… how did I get here?” I asked myself under my breath.I looked around, still baffled by what I had just experienced. “Or is there something I'm missing?” I uttered under my breath.I recalled that I was at the bar and a random stranger was trying to have a conversation with me and was also hitting on me. I couldn't really piece together all that he said, but one definite thing I knew about was that he was trying to woo me. And then I recalled when I was going back to the hotel area, and someone grabbed a
Freya's Pov We had a nice time at the hotel and we went back to our hotel rooms.On getting to mine, I was about to go and have a shower when I began to feel dizzy and it was so uncontrollable that my toes kicked against some things and before I knew it, I fell on the bed and that was it.“Freya! Freya!” I heard my name and I gasped as I woke up to reality.But to my shock, I was still at the restaurant with Xaden.“What the hell is happening?”“Are you okay?” Xaden asked me, looking concerned.“Yes… I am. I guess I just… blanked out or something.” “Were you getting bored of the conversation?” Xaden asked me, still staring at me with so much concern.I shook my head as I blinked my eyes.“No. No. How could that be possible? I'm just… tired. The whole stress of today and we've really had a good time so my body is feeling a little tired.” I said to him to make him feel better.It wouldn't be nice if he actually thought that I was getting bored of him. There was no way he would feel go
Freya's Pov I didn't understand why Xaden's pictures were so many in the drawer as that was the least thing I was expecting here.Curiosity took the best of me as I felt that couldn't be the only thing which would be in that drawer, so I drew it out and took one of the pictures, stared at it and noticed that they were like photos gotten from some random outings.I dropped the photo back and saw a file which was also there, so I brought it out and took the things which were in it only to see information about Xaden.His name, age, occupation, relationship status, net worth and many other things which I didn't expect to see here.“Why does she have so much information about him?” I asked myself as I put back those papers into the file and placed it back inside the drawer.Then I turned around, thinking deeply about what it meant by seeing those photos and information about Xaden. It was creepy at first because looking at it, there was no valid reason she ought to be keeping these infor
Freya's POVIf there was one thing I've learnt in the Crescent Moon pack, it was that mercy was a privilege only the powerful could afford and I was far from powerful.I tightened my grip around the silver tray in my hands, balancing the steaming bowls of stew as I weaved through the crowded dining hall. The scent of roasted meat and expensive ale, loud laughter and murmured chatter filled the air. Obviously, a celebration was in play but I had no clue what for. It was probably another pointless display of Alpha Daemon's arrogance. Alpha Daemon was a name that made me sick whenever I said it. I hated him. Hated his son. Hated every single wolf in this heaven’s forsaken pack that saw me as nothing more than a slave, a thing to be used, a discarded omega. I loathed them all. The tray wobbled slightly when a guard bumped into me, but I steadied it before anything could spill. “Watch where you're going, Pig!” He growled at me.“I'm sorry, sir.” I apologized like I always did.“Get ou
Freya's POVFreedom was so close I could taste it.But as I was running, I felt it — a presence, a shift in the air. Something, someone was here. Ahead stood a figure, eyes glowing red with crimson and bloodlust. My heart leapt to my throat and my brain screamed at me to stop and turn back. Turn back. Turn back.Freya, turn back! But I didn't.I loomed near and my stomach dropped.No. No, no, no.“You’re leaving?” Xaden said, his muscular body blocking my path.His menacing, red eyes locked onto mine, unreadable. His shirt was torn, a streak of blood was smeared across his face and I stared. None of it was his own. I'm sure.He took another step and I instinctively reeled back. He probably sensed my fear and took another step back. And for the first time in my life, when I looked at him, I didn't see arrogance, not cruelty or rage. His gaze had melted into something softer, something different. It was something I had never noticed before.“You were going to leave,” he said quietly
Freya's POVIt took one second to realize the scent was coming from him.From Xaden. Lavender and wildberries only meant one thing and I was too shocked to say it.It couldn't be. The Moon Goddess wasn't this cruel.But the truth was glaring enough. Cruel enough.The scent grew stronger when I stopped near his body. It wasn't an illusion. It was reality.Xaden was my mate. He was the one the Goddess chose for me.I nearly scoffed. She must have been playing some kind of sick joke if this is my reality.Xaden Andreas, the man I had spent years hating. The man whose father stole my dignity and destroyed whatever I had left. The man who looked me in the eye and told me I was nothing but a sex toy was now my mate. The man who had thrown stones at me and mocked me for being a lowly omega.No. I refuse to accept this. I inched towards Xaden till there was no space left between us and I kicked. I kicked him in the shoulder so hard that my good leg was so hard that my body trembled. “W

Thankfully, Xaden was able to catch Freya before she fell and hit her head against the wall or floor. Freya was breathing heavily as he caught her and she laughed all of a sudden.“Are you okay? I'm sorry I caught you unaware.” Xaden apologized as he helped her stand.“No, it's fine. I can't believe I almost slipped. It would have been another thing if I actually did.” She said, and chuckled.It was really relieving for her that she didn't end up falling, so she felt happy about it. Then she noticed that he was naked too and she felt a little shy about it because it seemed to her that he came to have fun with her and it almost ended in catastrophe because she was taken by surprise.Then she watched as Xaden went into the bath tub which was really big enough for up to three people to go into it.“The water is chill. You should come in too rather than using the shower.” Xaden suggested to Freya.She was a little shy because she didn't expect that, and they had never been together this
Xaden’s PovThe next day, I woke up really early especially because I had not done any packing, and I would need time for that.I got up from the bed, brushed my teeth and walked back to my room, then started packing up clothes and other things that I would need once it was time for us to leave.After packing up everything, I stepped back into the bathroom naked and had my bath as quick as possible, then rubbed myself dry and put on new clothes.“Alright, I'm all set.” I said as I looked at my hair style in the mirror, then picked up my bag and stepped out of the room.As I stepped out, and walked down the stairs to the living room, I met Freya sitting. She was all prepared and that was quite unexpected. I was already thinking that I would have to be the one hurrying her up.“Wow. You surprised me.” I said to her and gave her a morning hug.She smiled as she withdrew from me.“Well, I hope you like the surprise.” She chuckled as she picked up her bag.“Certainly. Are you ready?”“Yes,
Freya’s PovIt was really baffling that he was nowhere to be found and even when I went back to my room, it wasn’t that easy to sleep.“Where could he have gone to? Did Xaden’s suggestion shake him to that extent?”I kept thinking of where he could possibly be and what he might be thinking or doing right now until I finally fell asleep.The next day, I woke up and the first person on my mind was Xaden. If he had gone somewhere else to cool down, at least, he should be back by now. I got down from my bed and put on something else which was also casual and headed to his room. I knocked on the door twice before I heard footsteps walking towards the door.Then the door clicked open.“Hey. What brings you here so early?” He asked in a calm tone.“Not sure you want to hear it, but I’ve got to say it.” I said to him and he sighed.“Come in.” He urged me and I walked into his room and stood when I got to the middle. “So, what do you have to say?”“It’s about yesterday. I was just curious abou
Freya’s PovStepping into the town, one could tell that they were devastated and something really big had hit them.“This is a lot to take in.” I said under my breath.“You’re right. I hope we’ll be able to help them or they would be more devastated than they already are.” Xaden added.We walked until we got to the Alpha’s building and we were led inside and waited in the living room.“He’ll be out soon, kindly wait.” One of the guards urged us and Logan nodded.Linda was also waiting with us. It was brave and nice of her to go to this extent for her people and it wasn’t as if she had a position here or something. If only we had more kind people in this world, there really won’t be much problem.After waiting or a short while, their Alpha finally appeared and he was approaching us with a smile on his face.“Thank you so much for agreeing to come over to see how things are going here, Logan.” The Alpha appreciated him as they shook hands.“It’s nothing actually. We are just trying to b
