***Arnold's POV***“Alpha Tyler, what are you doing here?”“Havana informed me about What happened, and I knew for a fact that you'd decide to take such a risk.”“It's my Luna and son, we are talking about here.”“I know. And we are talking about my nephew and my good friend, Your Majesty. I know just how you feel, and I'll say that I don't feel less about how you feel, either. But then, before deciding, I want us to be rational about it.”“What if he maltreats her as we speak. She's pregnant, for goodness’ sake!”Tyler walked closer to me.“I know, trust me, I know just how dangerous this is. I know that if we are not careful, Tristan might do worse than we anticipated that he'll do.”“Good! I'm glad you understand what I'm trying to say.”“Yes I do. But then, I want to assure you that I'm with you on this you are not alone and for this, I would really plead with you to help me to help you too. And the only way we can do this is to put our resources together.”“Alpha, Tyler, you spea
**Freya's POV***I looked at him with a fast beating heart. I was so scared as of the moment. Tristan is way too cruel and anybody would be just as Afraid as I am right now. "What exactly do you want?" I asked immediately.He must have wanted to make me desperate. Tristan had always been like that. He always lesvss6 his victims with no choice but to do exactly what he wants. "Well, what I want you to do is to be patient. Can you do that?""Huh? I don't think I understand what you're talking about.""But of course. I know you wouldn't understand, so I'm going to break it down for you. If you need to see your son,then you will have to stay with me forever, that's what it means Freya."Immediately I blinked. If not that I was still in bed, I would have staggered backwards. "I still don't get you. Are you trying to tell me that no matter what I do, you still wouldn't release my son to me unless I stay with you for a long time?""Exactly what I meant. Good thing you're following.""You'
**Tristan's POV***Not that I knew she was planning to escape, but I was having the feeling. She's trying to avoid being with me. But then she has no choice but to do exactly as I want. I am the one making the decision, not her. “Freya, you would rather not do this. Just come out and let's continue from where you stopped. I'm still very much in the mood and I fucking want you laying on my bed, do you understand?”“No, I don't want to.” She whispered. “What? You don't want to? Wait a minute, does it seem like you have a choice here? You better get your ass over here while I'm still being nice!” I snapped. “Tristan, for the love of the goddess, please just stop doing this to me.”“Stop doing what? I haven't even started anything yet. How can you be so unfair, Freya?”“Please just stop!”“Now you're really getting me pissed at you. Why don't you be as obedient as you were, a year ago, huh?”“Tristan, I can't be with you. I'm married to Arnold already.”“Arnold? Do you even have any id
**Tristan's POV***As soon as I jumped into the bed, she began screaming like I was about to have her killed. “No!”“What the fuck is wrong with you? Do you prefer Arnold, is that it?”“Yes, I prefer him, not you!”In anger, I slapped her hard across the face, and she fell on the bed. “How dare you talk to me like that? How dare you?!” I screamed at the top of my voice while she laid on the bed with her hands tightly clasping her cheeks. “When I tell you to do something, you dare not neglect me or tell me no, else I'm really going to make you pay!”She shivered in bed as I spoke, but I didn't give a damn about her. I was still going to do what I want and that is to get my fair share of her body. Immediately I began pulling off my jeans. “I am your mate and I have every right over your body just like Arnold. Better yet, I'm the one who owns your body, not that scumbag, so you will only do what I tell you to. If you refuse, then I can assure you that you'll face worse things from m
**Freya's POV**"No! You're wrong. When I say that I'm not sick, I truly meant it. Why wouldn't you believe me and try to get information from me, huh? I lashed out in anger. “What are you saying? That's not what I'm doing at all. I genuinely care for those who are hurt, and that is the only reason I'm asking you this.”“Well, then I might as well tell you that I don't need your help!”She shook her head while staring at me with pity in her eyes. What was that all about? Why would she stare at me with pity in her eyes? Just then, she covered the distance between us and suddenly held me by the hand. “Even if you don't want to, I must take your pulse.”When she said this while holding my hand, I quickly yanked my hands away from her. “Don't touch me!” I snapped. At this moment, I realized the lady was staring at me wide-eyed. I wish I knew why she was suddenly staring at me that way, but I was confused. I didn't know why at all. “Please leave my room this minute!” I ordered, and i
**Arnold's POV**“Your Majesty, I think you don't need to worry too much about our plans.”I looked at Tyler with a creased brow the moment he said the words. “Why are you so sure?”“This is because I was able to get in touch with some of Tristan's most trusted aides, and I mean those Alphas who used to be by his side back then.”“What? You were capable of doing that?”“But of course. You may not know this, aside from being the brother to the Alpha, I was also his beta until I had the problem with him for Freya. For this reason, I know all the pack Alphas he partnered with.”“So, after meeting them, did they tell you that they were going to do as you've asked?”“Not that. I did more than that. I made them understand that my brother no longer holds power since he has left the pack. I also made them understand that I'm friends with the Lycan king and whoever tries to act smart might have the whole of his pack destroyed. Your Majesty, I suppose you know that no Alpha would want to see t
**Arnold's POV***“So, tell me, why are you here?”“My goodness! How can you even ask me that? You're my nephew, and it's only right that I come to see you.”This made me scoff. “One would think you care about me enough to ask about me.”“But I do care about you. How can you even say that.”“Uncle, I don't understand why you're here but for whatever it is, I would really implore you to tell me why you're here this way I'll get to understand what you're truly here for.”Stark heaved a long, deep sigh while staring at me. It's not like I care about what he thinks about me. I don't give a damn at all. All I want is for him to just say what he wants and leave me the fuck alone. “I can see that you're terribly stressed. It must be the reason you're so on edge.”“And you think I'm on edge because of you? Uncle, please get to the point, I don't have that much time to spare for this, you know.”“Arnold, don't get me wrong. I understand why you're this way, trust me. Your Luna is missing aga
*Tristan's POV*I waited patiently for the Rogue healer to come conduct the tests on Freya. Abigail, The healer that's supposed to perform the test, finally emerged. She walked to me and bowed. “Sorry we kept you waiting, Lord Tristan. We will carry out the test now.” Abigail said and bowed her head slightly.I sighed and nodded. “Just get this over with already and tell me what is wrong.” I said eagerly. Abigail nodded and walked to Freya, who had been completely silent the whole time. Freya seemed so hesitant for the Healer to touch her. It was obvious that she's hiding something from me again. “Let her do her job, that is not a suggestion but a demand.” I said to her Sternly. Without arguing further, Freya eased down and allowed Abigail to Conduct the test appropriately. I waited and watched as the test went on for some while. After a few minutes, Abigail finished and walked to me. “My lord, she has been pregnant for some time now.” she said. My jaw dropped in shock. Freya ha
Arnold's POVI went into the building to start searching for Elizabeth. There were few rogue soldiers around, but I easily slayed them. My mind was all focused on finding my mate first. A few minutes into walking in, I spotted Alan in one of the rooms. “Alpha Arnold…” He mumbled as soon as he saw me. I barely have time to fight anyone right now. I'll deal with him after I find her for sure. Surprisingly, Alan wasn't pleased with the fact that I'm walking away from him. “You cannot leave without a fight. I don't think I'll be able to walk out of this anymore. Let's settle this, you either kill me and go on with your journey or I do so and claim my place as the next Lycan King!" He blurted out. I was so confused but at the same time, it explained why he was siding with Tristan in the first place. “So you decided to side with my enemy just so you could become the next Lycan king. That has to be the dumbest decision you've made.” I said and shook my head in disgust. “Call me stupid o
Tristan's POVI attacked Tyler m, attempting to slay him and he quickly blocked my attack skillfully. He blocked my sword and cut my hand, giving it a small scar. “You gave me a scar. I must say you have honed your sword fighting skills since we last had a duel. But you're forgetting something important, I taught you how to use the sword.” I said and attacked him again.Tyler was quick enough to block me again but this time, I took advantage of my strength and pushed him back till he tripped and fell on his back. He was fast to get up again but I didn't let him regain his composure before I reached him and stabbed him with my sword. The sword fell off Tyler's hand and he fell to the ground, groaning in pain. I pulled the sword from him and heaved a sigh of relief. “You chose the wrong side brother. Maybe if you had decided not to help Arnold, maybe you would have loved enough to see another day.” I said with an evil smile on my face“Sadly, this is the end of the road for you.” I
Arnold's POVWe all halted when a figure slowly emerged from one of the buildings. Standing in front of us all was Tristan. He stood still and was just staring at us in silence. “So, you have finally come to die, Arnold?” Tristan said menacingly. I stared at him, with great urge to just tear him to tiny pieces and feed the parts to wild animals. Tristan's facial expression suddenly changed. He seemed to notice something odd amongst us. “Wayne? What is going on here? You should be in the Blue moon pack.” He said feebly. I finally understood why he suddenly felt perplexed. “I could not keep up with the pace of your cruelty, my lord. You left me no choice.” Wayne replied nonchalantly. “So you decided to betray my trust and side with my enemies. After you served me for so long? I knew your sudden appearance here meant something but I was just too ignorant to accept it.” Tristan said and sighed.Wayne didn't know what to say anymore. He turned to me and shrugged his shoulders. “Trista
Arnold's POVThe soldier left immediately and soon returned with the Alpha of the Blue moon pack. A woman who seemed to be his Luna was with him. He reached us and stopped. “You are the Lycan king…” He said, with his voice vividly shaking in fear. Seeing how scared he was, I was confident he wouldn't refuse to hand the boy over. “Yes, I am. I'm here for my son, Amon. Someone left him here with you, and I want you to hand him over to us immediately.” I commanded. The Alpha was quiet for a while and only stared at me. “You want him? I guess you're going to fight us if we refuse to do that, right? And seeing how few your men are, I'll say you're incapable of winning this fight.” He said menacingly. Stan unsheathed his sword immediately and aimed at his neck. A few of the pack's soldiers also did the same, and we all stood there in silence, waiting for the next person to take the decisive step. “Tell your men to lay down their weapons. You are greater in numbers, but that will absolu
Arnold's POVI walked into the living room and took my seat. “So, how is the preparation going? Are we almost Ready to Match up now?” I asked eagerly. “Oh, we are not ready. We are so not ready.” Wayne said angrily. Tyler winked at him to stop acting up, which he reluctantly obliged to. “I assume he already told you that you'll lead us there. Well, no one else can.” I said to Wayne. Wayne smiled at me faintly and stood up to leave. “I will be in my room, preparing for the journey. When you're all ready to leave, I will join you.” He said and left. I turned to Tyler. “Is there anything left to do here? We should set out soon if there's none. The sooner, the better for us.” I said. “There Should be just a few preparations left before we set out. Oscar, are our men ready?” Tyler asked his Beta. “Yes, my lord, They are all ready. But we did have another few down counts, as more of Alpha Arnold's men were also infected. We have just about fifty percent left of their initial numbers.”
Tyler's POVMy jaw dropped in shock, but I quickly composed myself. I Turned to Havana to see her staring at me intensely. “Well, I missed you too, but just couldn't say it.” I thought to myself. Havana drew closer to me slowly, before planting a kiss on my lips. She slowly pulled away from me and stared into my eyes. “I missed you too, Havana.” I said and pulled her closer again. We kissed hungrily as she held me firmly. After a short while, we pulled away from each other to catch our breath. I stood up and held Havana. “We Should head to my room, someone might walk in here at any moment.” I said and started walking away. Havana obliged and walked came with me. We both headed for my quarters immediately. After avoiding the maids and guards around as much as we could, we finally reached my room. I shut the door and heaved a sigh of relief. Turning around, I was spooked when Havana suddenly pulled me closer and kissed me hungrily. She rubbed my chest as our lips parted, “Take of
Arnold's POVI walked back into the room after shutting the door. “I am so famished, it feels like I haven't eaten in months!” I exclaimed and sat down. I soon started eating, and it tasted way better than I expected. After a while, I finished eating and went out to see Tyler. “He Should be somewhere in the Living room or something, your majesty.” The maid I asked Tyler's room for replied. I thanked her and headed to the living room. As she said, Tyler was indeed in the living room, sitting alone. He was so lost in thought that he didn't notice I had come in until I cleared my throat. Tyler looked up and saw me. “Your Majesty, it is quite late already. You should be resting as the journey might have taken a toll on your body.” He blurted out.“You should not be worried about that. What lies further ahead is way more important than mere sleep. As Wayne said, your brother would do anything possible to win this battle.” I said. As soon as I mentioned his brother again, Tyler stopped
*Arnold's POV* Still lost and void of a way out of the situation we were currently in, Things were seemingly going bad. “What I am saying is that, there is absolutely no way I would join this fight if there are not enough men. We should be twice their numbers to be able to have a chance at winning this battle!” Wayne stated. Even though he was right, I just didn't want to accept that he is. There was nothing we could think of now that the battle is at hand. “There's nothing we can do anymore now. Overanalyzing the situation would not result in any solution.” I stated. Wayne stared at me furiously, but he could not just exert his anger fearing getting slayed by Stan. “We have to think of something, Your Majesty. If we go ahead and attack Alpha Tristan without proper preparation, there will be no way out of this.” He said. “I hate to say this, but he's right, Your majesty. My brother would definitely be prepared for whatever way the battle Is coming. Attacking or defending his l
Tristan's POVI reached the Rogue village again. Karl was in the living room when I walked in. “You are back. Did you, by any chance, leave with your Beta? He seemed to have disappeared after you left.” Karl asked. “Wayne? He was in here when I left. Did he leave without your knowledge or something?” I asked. Karl shook his head. “I am certain that he didn't leave yet. The guards at the gate said they didn't see him leave. My thoughts were that he left with you.” He said. I was beginning to get confused. Wayne was in the living room when I left, and he was surely going to leave after I did. “Maybe he left without anyone see him do that. I already asked him to go back to the Blue moon pack. And I don't think there's something to be worried about.” I said. Karl sighed. “I don't understand why, but I just felt it was suspicious. He suddenly came here without being asked for and also left in the same way he came.” He said. I was still so confused, too. “Wait, did he by any Cha
