Amelia's POV

I frowned at her comment, not finding any humor in it. Calling someone a sugar queen is rather strange, and there wasn't any bit of humor in the term, not even in the way she said it.

“Who are you?.” I asked rather quietly.

Ramona laughed mirthlessly. She leaned against the wall with narrowed eyes, looking me up and down. "I'm Ramona. And I can see you're Alpha Kayden's new plaything."

I shifted uneasily under her piercing gaze. "I still don't know who you are, maybe there is a reason why I haven't heard about you all these while.” I added.

I didn't want to cause any trouble, but I also didn't want to give her the Idea that I was scared of who she was or might be. It wasn't my plan to be where I was, but I wasn't going to give anyone else the opportunity to do as they wanted with me.

Ramona rolled her eyes. "Didn't anyone teach you not to interrupt when someone is speaking?"

I sighed and removed her hand which was still firmly placed on my shoulder. I pulled myself

    Amelia's POV Kayden's arms were wrapped tightly around me, his hands gripping my waist and back almost painfully. But the pressure reassured me that I was safely out of harm's way. As his panic gradually subsided, I became aware of strange stirrings within myself. My mind was clear again yet emotions played in my chest that did not seem my own - anger, outrage, a fierce protective urge. I glanced up at Kayden's face, taking in the silver glint of his eyes and twisted snarl. There was no mistaking the anger that was emanating from his rigid frame. When I was falling just few minutes ago from the stairs, I was scared.. terrible. Last of me didn't want to die, another part wanted to find out what was going to happen when I fall. But what I was feeling now was something different… there was anger. I wasn't angry at Ramona, I barely even knew her, what I felt was a shock surprise… why was she going to kill me, she didn't even know me yet. The anger that I was feeling, wasn't mine.

    Kayden’s POVAs I walked away from the scene, my mind was a whirlwind of conflicting emotions. I couldn't shake the feeling of unease that had settled deep within me since what happened last night, and now the incident with Ramona and Amelia's fall down the stairs.There was something different about the way I felt, especially when I was around Amelia.The hallway stretched out before me, dark and silent. I paused, my instincts urging me to turn back. And when I did, I saw her - curled up on the floor where I had left her, her head buried between her legs.“What the fuck is she doing?.” Muttered under my breath. My heart clenched at the sight of her vulnerable form. Despite my best efforts to resist, I felt a strange urge to go to her, to comfort her in any way I could. But I knew that was unnecessary, and it would only compromise everything I stood for as an Alpha, and as a person. I wasn't that kind, and nothing was going to change that. "What am I doing?" I muttered to myself

    Amelia's POV The knock echoed through the room, my heart leaped in anticipation. Could it be him? Alpha Kayden, coming back to check on me, perhaps to offer some explanation or reassurance? I hurriedly stood up, my mind racing with the possibilities.Raising the hem of my dress slightly, I let my thighs peek out, a subconscious gesture of allure. Then, with a quick adjustment, I pulled down the neckline of my dress, amplifying the curve of my breasts. Every movement was calculated, a silent invitation for his attention.Rushing towards the door, my heart pounded with excitement. I couldn't wait to see him again, to feel his presence close to mine. My hand trembled slightly as I reached for the handle, anticipation thrumming through my veins.As the door swung open, my breath caught in my throat, but the sight that greeted me was not what I expected. Instead of Alpha Kayden's imposing figure, it was my maid standing before me, her eyes wide with surprise."Miss Amelia," she exclaimed

    Amelia's POVClaire looked up and smiled, a hint of excitement in her eyes. "What about her?" she asked, her tone gentle.She was probably excited about the fact that what we were doing might be considered as bonding, since I wanted to talk about someone else with her. Gossiping was something that would excite anyone, especially when you talk about someone who you don't like. I smiled back, feeling a mix of curiosity and exhaustion. "I just want to know more about her," I admitted, my voice echoing with exhaustion. Claire nodded understandingly, setting aside the cloth she had been using to clean my neck. "Well, you shouldn't give a shit about Ramona," she said bluntly, her tone firm.I blinked in surprise at her candidness, feeling a flush of embarrassment wash over me. "I just... I want to understand," I protested weakly, feeling foolish for my curiosity.Claire sighed, her gaze softening as she met my eyes. "I understand, Miss Amelia," she said gently. "But trust me when I say

    Alpha Kayden's POVRamona stood in the doorway, her presence, a disruption in the calm of my chamber. I couldn't help but roll my eyes at her sudden intrusion, a sigh escaping my lips as I watched her hesitantly step inside."What do you want?" I asked, my tone firm and without any hint of warmth. I had no patience for her games, especially not now when my mind was already filled with conflicting emotions. I stood up and walked towards the window, putting both my hands in each pocket. The view seemed peaceful enough, the only thing was that I was interrupted by Ramona, someone I was trying desperately to avoid. She smiled softly, seemingly oblivious to my irritation as she approached me with careful steps. "I noticed you seemed upset," she said, her voice gentle as she reached out to touch my arm.I shrugged her off, my gaze hardening as I took a step back. "I don't need your concern," I replied curtly, my frustration bubbling beneath the surface.But she persisted, smiling as s

    Amelia's POV He what?" I pressed, my curiosity showing as Claire trailed off, her eyes misting over with emotion.Claire took a deep breath, steadying herself before she spoke. "It's true that Alpha Kayden is cruel and brutal," she began, her voice trembling slightly. "But he's also the only good thing that has happened to me and my family."I blinked in surprise, slightly shocked by Claire's words. "What do you mean?" I asked, my voice barely above a whisper.Claire sighed, her gaze drifting to the floor as she gathered her thoughts. "I come from a long line and generation of slaves," she explained, her voice tinged with sorrow. "My parents served one Alpha's family for as long as they could remember, and I was born into seeing my parents serve… it was serve or die."My heart ached as I listened to Claire's story, imagining the hardships she and her family must have endured. "But how did you end up here?" I asked, feeling a surge of sympathy for Claire and her family.Claire took a

    Alpha Kayden's POVRamona still stood there, vulnerable and exposed. He quickly covered his eyes with his arm, his face and his expression changing into one of discomfort. "Alpha," he said hastily, his voice strained. "Should I leave?"I frowned, my frustration boiling over as I glared at him. "Get Ramona the fuck out of my office," I snapped, my tone sharp and biting.Julius nodded, the sign of relief evident in his features as he moved towards Ramona. He swiftly picked up her dress from the floor and draped it over her, shielding her nakedness from view. With a gentle but firm hand, he guided her away from me, towards the door.She hesitated for a while as though she didn't want to go with him. It wasn't like she had a choice to go over and beyond and try to test my patience. She knew better than to do that. "You have to leave while the Alpha is still patient," he said to Ramona, his voice soothing as he tried to calm her. She was still crying, her hand bleeding, but she allowed

    Amelia's POVI let out a shaky breath as I swiftly moved away from the window, my heart pounding in my chest. The last thing I needed was for Alpha Kayden to catch me spying on him. The consequences would undoubtedly be severe.As I retreated from the window, I couldn't shake the feeling of dread that lingered in the pit of my stomach. It was as though I was constantly on edge, always looking over my shoulder, afraid of what might happen next.I couldn't tell if he had felt what I felt.. or If he knew that he was my mate. Bit for the few weeks that I had spent with him, I knew undoubtedly that he was impossible to read. Even though he shared the same feeling with me, he wouldn't show it even in the slightest. With a heavy sigh, I walked towards the bed and collapsed onto it, the soft mattress enveloping me in its embrace. "I'm losing my mind," I muttered into the pillow, my voice muffled by the fabric.Feeling suffocated by my own thoughts, I sat up and ran a hand through my hai

    Amelia's POV The night before I was supposed to be taken to the Baroque pack, an unexpected knock came at the back door of the palace. Kayden and I exchanged a short look, our nerves on edge from the events of the past days. Kayden moved to answer it, gesturing for me to stay back. He opened the door slowly, and there stood Alpha Waylen. "Waylen," Kayden growled, stepping protectively in front of me. “How are you here?” He asked sharply. Waylen sighed and rubbed his hands together. "What do you want?" Kayden asked again before Waylen got the opportunity to answer. Waylen raised his hands in a gesture of peace. "I mean no harm. I came bearing a gift."Behind Waylen, the children walked out from behind him, looking unharmed but confused. “Ohhh.” I exclaimed with pleasure. And I pushed past Kayden, rushing to scoop them up in my arms."Mommy!" they cried, their tiny voices screaming as they held me tightly. I hugged them tightly, tears streaming down my face. "You're safe. Th

    Amelia's POVKayden had planned a special evening for us. After everything that had happened, he wanted to spend some time alone, away from the pack's responsibilities and the threats. We decided to have dinner at the edge of the pack around the courtyard, a serene spot where we could watch the sunset. The air was crisp, and the sound of rustling leaves added a sweet sound to our quiet conversation.“It's actually quite beautiful how this place is now,” I said looking around. “It seems like I'm seeing everything from a whole new perspective, everything feels so different now.” Kayden smiled, reaching out to hold my hand. “I'm glad things are different now, we need moments like these especially with everything going on.” I nodded, feeling a warmth move through me as I looked into his eyes. “You're right, it's been a tough few days.” We sat there, enjoying the peace and comfort of staying with each other. The sun began to set and the sky turned to shades of orange and pink, I fel

    Alpha Kayden's POVI stood in front of the entire pack, I had called for an important meeting. I could feel a sense of responsibility as they stared at me with expectation and curiosity. The morning was still early, a heavy silence Hung in the air, broken only by the rustle of leaves. I walked up and stood on the podium. Beside me was Ramona, standing with her hands cuffed and a smug look on her face. I took a deep breath, feeling that this was coming. "Everyone, look to the podium," I began, my voice echoing across the courtyard. "Before you stand Ramona, a traitor to the Paxon pack."There was a murmur of shock and anger among the crowd. Ramona's eyes spinned around, taking in the hostile stare directed at her. She tried to maintain her composure, but I could see the flicker of fear in her eyes."Ramona planned to leak important secrets to the Bluemoon pack," I continued, my voice steady. "Because she couldn't get her way, she resorted to treachery. She deceived some of our own

    Alpha Waylen's POV “Are you okay Alpha?” Luke's voice echoed through the room, interrupting my thoughts. I turned around and he was standing by the doorway, his hands folded and he had a pitiful look on his face. “What?.” I asked sarcastically. “Do you think I'm losing my mind.. going crazy?” I stood up and began to walk towards him.“I..I would never think that Alpha.” He said with a stutter. He began to move backwards, as though I was a monster. I didn't blame him, it was normal. I had killed almost a dozen of my men who were on patrol the night Amelia snuck out to see Alpha Kayden. That was what they deserved for not doing their Jobs properly.“The plan didn't go as you wanted it Alpha.” He whispered under his breath. I was now in front of him. I smiled and placed my hand on his shoulder. “Don't you think I know that Luke?” I said with a chuckle. “Three werewolves I sent after them and two survived. I knew that was going to happen, it was just a message. They should kno

    Alpha Kayden's POV"What's wrong, Julius? What's this about Ramona?" I asked calmly. Anything that had to do with Ramona, meant trouble and I knew that quite well. Julius took a deep breath, his expression serious "It's not something I can explain, Alpha. But I think you need to see this for yourself." He gestured for me to follow him.I hesitated for a moment, glancing back at the window where Amelia slept peacefully. But my sense of duty to my pack was more my personal desires, there were guards protecting Amelia and the kids after all. I turned and followed Julius, my footsteps quick and purposeful.The night was quiet and the only sound one could hear was our footsteps as we walked. We reached a huge door and I knew what usually went in there, it was our torture room. A place that I haven't used in a while. Julius took a deep breath and pulled the door open, he walked in and I followed behind. As I stepped through the threshold, the sight that greeted me sent a chill down my sp

    Alpha Kayden's POV“What do we do next?” Amelia asked me quietly as we laid together on the bed. I pushed a stray lock from her face and sighed. “What do you want to do?” I replied. She sighed and pulled away but I held her and dragged her closer to myself. I could smell her, she smelt like heaven. “Don't pull away Amelia.” I pleaded with a smile on my face. “I wouldn't do that.” She whispered softly, trying to hide her happiness. I nodded, pulling Amelia close to me once more. "You're right, we've been apart for far too long. I can't stand the thought of being separated from you any longer." I said, losing myself in her eyes. Amelia blushed, her cheeks flushing with pink. "Kayden, I feel the same way. These past months have been so difficult without you." She reached up, tracing the line of my jaw with her fingertips. I couldn't resist any longer. I leaned in, pressing my lips to hers in a slow, tender kiss. She melted into me, her arms wrapping around my neck. The world fell

    Amelia's POVThe moon was now out, its light guiding us through the woods. I took a quick glance at Kayden's body and saw marks all over. I sighed and swallowed hard.I couldn't connect the dots as to why we were attacked. It didn't make sense for Alpha Waylen to attack us when he knew, or was deceived to think that he was outnumbered, and still that wasn't his way, he had honor at least, so there was no way it was him. Kayden pulled me closer to himself, holding me tightly more than usual. I could smell the strong scent of his cologne mixed with the smell of sweat. He looked down on me and smiled, kissing me on my forehead. “We're here.” Alpha Kayden said to me smiling, as he fixed his attention on the crowd of buildings in front of us. The Paxon pack had changed so much, and I could tell by just standing at the gate. I hesitated, slowing down as I did. “Are you okay?” He asked me as he noticed how uncomfortable I looked. I smiled at him, trying not to make everything about m

But I had made my choice, and now I had to live with the consequences.Kayden and I walked in silence for a while, trekking through the woods, the only sound was the crunching of leaves beneath our feet. The air was slightly filled with tension and I couldn't help but wonder what was going through his mind. After what felt like an eternity, Kayden finally broke the silence."Amelia," he said, his voice soft and gentle. "Are you okay?"I let out a deep sigh, my shoulders slumping slightly, I had been waiting for him to ask. "I- I don't know, Kayden. I'm happy, the happiest person right now, but I also feel so guilty. Waylen kept Freya hostage, and I had the chance to defend her, but I didn't. What if he hurts her?"Kayden reached out and placed a comforting hand on my shoulder. "Don't worry Amelia, Freya is safe with Waylen for now.” He said confidently. I pulled away from his touch sligh
