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 POVAlpha Kayden's lips grazed my ear, a shiver ran down my spine, sending a wave of anticipation coursing through my body. His touch was slow and deliberate, igniting a fire within me that I couldn't control."Alpha…" I started, my voice barely a whisper, but he silenced me with a firm yet gentle touch."Not a word," he murmured, his voice low and commanding. His hands moved across my body with precision, leaving a trail of heat in their wake. My breath hitched as his touch grew more insistent, his fingers exploring every curve and contour with skillful expertise.I felt a surge of desire coursing through me as his hands found their way to my breasts, his touch sending bolts of electricity racing through my veins. My body responded instinctively, arching into his touch as pleasure washed over me in waves.I tilted my hips forward, allowing my ass to touch his hardness, that single act almost causing me to lose my mind, I wanted him. "Mmm," I moaned softly, unable to contai
Amelia's POVAlpha Kayden began walking out of the room, I couldn't let the moment pass without addressing the unspoken tension between us. "You didn't deny it, you just avoided the question," I said, my voice firm, despite my thoughts telling me to stop. He stopped in his tracks, his posture rigid as he turned around to face me. His eyes bore into mine, cold and calculating. "Repeat what you said," he commanded, his tone sharp and authoritative.I took a deep breath, steeling myself for his reaction. "I said, you didn't deny it," I repeated, my voice steady despite the nervous fluttering in my chest. "You avoided the question."Before I could finish speaking, he was in front of me, his eyes ablaze with a fierce intensity that sent a shiver down my spine. "Shit," I muttered under my breath, realizing too late that I had overstepped my bounds.He took my hand roughly, bringing it up to my face as he studied me intently. "You're shaking," he observed, his voice low and dangerous. "Are
Amelia's POV I slowly opened my eyes, I felt something familiar lying on my chest. It was my favorite bead necklace, but it wasn't as soft as I remembered. I sighed, the weight of it feeling strangely heavy against my skin.The smell of the room was different too, no longer familiar but antiseptic, like a hospital. I blinked, trying to adjust to the dim lighting, and could hear the silent beep of a machine nearby. It felt surreal, like I had been transported to another world.Suddenly, the lights came on, and I winced, covering my eyes with my hand. "Fuck!" I exclaimed, the brightness almost blinding me.A figure approached me, and as my eyes adjusted, I realized it was a doctor. He wasn't smiling as he walked towards me, and I knew instantly that something was wrong."Good morning, Miss Amelia," he said softly, his voice calculated and clinical. "How are you feeling?"I tried to sit up, but he gently held my hands, preventing me from moving. "You had a bad fall," he continued, his t
Alpha Kayden's POVI walked through the dim hallways of the palace, the crazy things that had already happened so early, pressing down on my shoulders like a heavy burden. My steps were heavy, my movements sluggish as I made my way towards my chambers.My eyes were heavy, I had barely gotten any kind of sleep.The events of the past few hours replayed in my mind like a broken record, each moment more infuriating than the last. How could she say that… that there is something between us? The mere thought of it made my blood boil with anger and frustration."She's just like any other person," I muttered under my breath, my voice laced with annoyance. "She doesn't know anything."But deep down, a small voice nagged at the back of my mind, whispering doubts and insecurities that I couldn't ignore. What if she was right? What if there was something more between us, something I couldn't explain or control?I shook my head, trying to banish the thoughts from my mind. It was ridiculous, absur
Amelia's POVThe doctor's hand rested in mine, I looked at him, silently whispering my inten, but without words. He seemed to understand, his eyes widening in realization."You can't be serious," he exclaimed softly, his voice filled with disbelief. "Do you have any idea what you're asking me to do? That could cost me my life."I sat up, determination coursing through me. "I know," I replied firmly, meeting his gaze head-on. "I'm not the kind of person who asks for favors, but all I'm asking is for you to delay the news about my pregnancy for a little while longer."The doctor sighed, rubbing his temples as if trying to ward off an impending headache. "Why?" he asked, his tone tinged with frustration. "Why do you even want that?"I hesitated, knowing that if I tried to explain, he might not understand. "It's complicated," I replied quickly, unable to put my feelings into words."How long do you want me to keep it a secret?" he pressed, his voice edged with impatience."Just for a few
Amelia's POVI slowly opened my eyes, feeling groggy and disoriented. It took me a moment to remember where I was – lying in the infirmary, surrounded by sterile white walls and the faint scent of antiseptic. It seemed I had been asleep for a while, my body finally succumbing to the exhaustion that had plagued me for days.With a deep breath, I sat up in bed, feeling the dull ache of needles in my skin. Grimacing, I reached out and pulled the IV needle from my arm, wincing at the sharp sting of pain.“Fuck!.” I exclaimed softly. As I stood up, a wave of dizziness washed over me, but I shook it off, determined to find some answers. Walking towards the door, I pushed it open slowly, the hinges creaking softly in protest.The hallway outside was dimly lit, the soft glow of overhead lights casting long shadows along the walls. "Hello, is anyone there?" I called out, my voice echoing faintly down the empty corridor.But there was no response, only the sound of my own voice reverberating t
Kayden's POVI and Amelia and our kids are so happy with ourselves.I recall when Amelia and I first met before she became my mate. Now depending on each other has been what helped us strive.The gods definitely had our lives well thought of as they just gave me a partner that substitutes my flaws and does not let my bad side be a point of judging me.In my own way I have tried to balance loving my Amelia and my kids the same way, not letting one party feel less loved than the other.“Honey do you know why I love you so much?” I asked my Amelia.“No,” Amelia replied.“It is because of how well you have proven to love me, and returning to me full heartedly after 3 years it means a lot to me,” I said.“You know I will always do,” Amelia added.When I found out i have kids, I did not really know how to react or behave as a Dad.Being an Alpha has made me think all relationships I have with others should be formal. I faced same issue in my early days in marriage but since I was comfortab
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
Amelia's POVI knew I had hurt him, and part of me wished I could go back and make things right. 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
