Crown Prince Clyde's Point Of View

“Clyde, it was indeed Woodland. The helicopters were, as Alira said, her brother's. And according to our informants, Joanna is the Alpha’s fated mate.”

The suspicions were hard enough to digest, but having it confirmed sounded like a sledgehammer being hit on my head. Getting Joanna back was now becoming more difficult, as his fated mate, Alpha Abel, had every right to her. But she is my wife and also had the right to decide how to handle the mate bond.

“However, I hate to break it to you, but the only way to speak to her is through the Council. I'm going to ask your father to get the Council to call a special meeting. Alpha Abel must then be forced to take Joanna there so that we can all hear her decision. They cannot ignore the fact that she made marriage vows to you as per human tradition.”

Jace was right, but I really wanted to talk to Joanna alone.

This was a private affair. She vowed her eternal love to me not long ago and promi

    Crown Prince Clyde's Point Of View 'Clyde, why are we sneaking along the border and covering our scent? We're the Crown Prince and a Lycan at that, damn!' Xin growled in my mind. 'Man! Let's just enter the pack through the main entrance. I want to let those werewolves know how much a sandwich costs. Kidnap my mate and drug me! Do they dare?!’All my wolf wanted was to go for Alpha Abel's throat. He was constantly licking his sharp claws, ready for action.Ever since we'd been on the road, he'd been growling in my head about what he planned to do with the man. He demanded revenge and the return of his mate. He didn't care that Joanna was the fated of the Alpha, to him, she was ours alone. And I completely agree with the latter. I am very confident that if my wife was faced with a choice, she would choose me a thousand times over. We share a special bond, it was unbreakable.‘Xin, today we are going to try to talk to her only. I want to know what her posi

    Crown Prince Clyde's Point Of View againImpatiently, I tapped my fingers on the table in front of me, waiting for Alpha Abel.The man still had about fifteen minutes to show up, of course, I was here much too early for this Council meeting. My father, the King, and the two other Alphas who were also members of the Council, entered the large conference room and took their seats. Their eyes were fixed on me, my father's held a stern warning.Damn it, how could they expect me to be calm? It was my wife who was kidnapped, and that on my wedding day! This was unacceptable! Xin agreed with me, insisting that we strike the Alpha as soon as he set foot in the room.'Please, Clyde. Hold back. Otherwise, this will not end well for you. And I won't get any information on where to look for Joanna if this man shows up here without her,' Jace pleaded into the mind link.We both doubted that the Alpha would come in here with Joanna.We could tell from the woman's conversation that s

    Crown Prince Clyde's Point Of View StillOnce more, my father asserted his authority to keep me in check.This time, however, he was furious; I could sense the Lycan wolf within him bristling at my disrespect. Xin employed all his affection to appease the King's Lycan and protect us from its wrath. Fortunately, he succeeded. The Royal Wolf had always held a soft spot for us; any anger directed toward us never lasted long.The monarch let out another weary sigh and I noticed him go into the mind link with the other Council members."Alpha, where is Joanna?"The man shifted restlessly from one leg to the other."Your Majesty, I left her in the pack because I received an urgent call from my companies' investment board. They had discovered improper expenses and wanted an explanation," he explained. "My mate assisted me in resolving the issue, but I chose not to expose her to these matters before she was accustomed to our species."We gazed at the man, fully aware that his

    Again Crown Prince Clyde's Point Of View'Clyde, come check this out. I'm on the north side.'Jace's voice through the mind link carried a mix of hope and fear. Yet, I focused on the hopeful side, after days of searching, it was exactly what I needed. Hope and finding Joanna.With my heightened Lycan senses, I quickly picked up his scent and in no time found myself standing beside him, gazing into a ravine."A car accident occurred here. Joanna's scent is faint, suggesting it happened several days ago," he said with a heavy heart. "The car over there resembles Woodland’s, but its emblem is missing. Can you guess what I think this is about?"I made my way down into the ravine, it was steep, but I could hold on to the vines.When I reached the car, I inspected the inside. It was empty, but I could smell Joanna. Goddess, what happened to her? I scanned the area; a few meters below, I saw a stream. I continued to descend until I was standing next to it. And then something

The situation was getting increasingly complex. Jace gripped my shoulder and shoved me onto a sofa as Joyce signaled her assistant to step in while she dealt with us."Crown Prince, Zane brought her here after she was discharged from the hospital. They didn't share many details with me, but they discovered her on the roadside while coming back from a business trip in the city. She has lost her memory," Joyce told us."Amnesia?" both Jace and I repeated like parrots, our eyes bulging with shock. Hell, this Alpha Abel had a lot going for him. This was unprecedented; endangering the Crown Princess like this could have far-reaching consequences for him."Listen, I have a crush on Zane and was already jealous to see a beautiful woman in his company. But Joanna didn't really seem interested in him. She h

I stared back, if she knew me or had something to say, she should speak up. But looking at me like that was not polite."Janice, are you going to reject me? But you didn't give me a chance to prove myself as a mate, that's the least you can do," the Beta pleaded to my friend.But she shook her head frantically."No! Why did you follow me? I made it clear, I don't want you to be my mate," she cried desperately."You're being unreasonable now, Janice," Zane interjected. "Everyone is overjoyed when they meet their mate. And you haven't even said a word to the Beta, and you already know you want to reject him?"He frowned in disbelief as if questioning his sister's sanity."Listen, let's not get too emotional here," Beta Cleo tried to calm everyone down. The man was not aware that he was the cause of all this fuss. Janice didn't want to

However, contrary to what Beta Cleo had mentioned, there was no driver present; instead, Janice hopped behind the wheel herself."I told Cleo I'd take the wheel. We can do without any eavesdroppers," she chuckled, starting up the car. As I glanced around, it was clear that this vehicle's interior was both luxurious and comfortable, definitely worth a fortune. "Well, as long as you make sure we arrive safely. Zane should not regret trusting us with his expensive possession," I remarked. But before we could pull up, someone rushed out of the packhouse."Where are you going, mate? Why are you leaving without telling me where and how long you'll be away?" Beta Eric opened the door before Janice could even stop him. Before he could lay his hands on her, she darted out of his way."Keep your hands off me! And who are you again?" she snapped at the man."I'm you

Because that would get me into serious trouble," Joyce sighed, exaggerating as she pulled us into a bear hug."Zane told me I could get two for the price of one," she jested. "Holy Goddess, Janice! You've grown into a real bombshell, girl. Wait till my clients see you on the runway, the men's eyes will pop out of their sockets," she chuckled."No. There is only one man for me. But he has a few hurdles to overcome before I can claim him," she answered dryly. I rolled my eyes, she knew better."Come on, let's talk business first. There is so much to be done. I have a number of filthy rich customers who want a sneak peek at the new designs," Joyce continued, already wringing her hands at the prospect. "It's not a large group, but together they can offer me a carefree year if they like my collection."I laughed, of course, she was overacting. Joyce was already rich enough

    As if he had been waiting for this precise cue for an eternity, Xin surfaced, taking over from his human.Clyde's head took on a shape as if carved from wood, the golden fur shimmering as it manifested on his face. Possessively, he cradled Joanna’s face in his hands, lifting it toward him and kissing every inch of it, a fervent declaration of his love.Caught off guard by the strong, untamed power that enveloped her, Era stiffened, her senses reeling. She closed her eyes, savoring the intoxicating rush flowing through her, a wave of pure, unadulterated energy.“No need to panic, love,” Xin whispered to her, his voice a soothing balm against her surging anxiety. “I have never given you reason to doubt me. What is this?” Era leaned against his chest, surrendering to his silent, persuasive power, her resistance melting away like snow in the summer sun.“Joanna is insecure,” she confided in a low murmur, a confession whispered on the edge of a sigh. “She fears that a fated mate might sudd

    As they stood before the grand, imposing doors of the Palace, Butler Clark came before them, his presence as steady as the ancient stones of the building itself.Clark was the same age as Alpha Maceo, but unlike the Alpha, who retained a youthful vigor, the signs of aging were etched deeply into the butler's face, revealing his years of service and loyal duty. Moreover, the butler was not as athletically built, nor did he move with the same fluid grace as Maceo.“Alpha, are you here to speak with the King?” he asked the visitor icy calm, his tone devoid of any warmth. “Please, follow me, the family is on the back terrace, enjoying a moment of respite now that Queen Joanna needs her strength.”Before the Alpha could offer a reply, Clark turned on his heel, clearly expecting the pair to follow him without question.The Alpha and his granddaughter exchanged a surprised glance, before stepping into the grand foyer. They walked through a long, winding corridor, passing a bustling, fragrant

    "What did you say?" Alpha Maceo of the Falcon Crest pack thundered, his voice reverberating through the sterile confines of the Royal doctor's office. "Man, run the tests again! This… this cannot be true!"His face, normally a picture of composure and quiet strength, was now flushed crimson, a mask of disbelief and rising fury. He glared at Doctor Andrew, who sat calmly across the polished mahogany desk, his expression carefully neutral. Andrew held out the thin sheets of paper with the results.He read the conclusions aloud, his voice steady, each word a hammer blow to Maceo's bewildered mind, shattering the carefully constructed facade of his reality."Alpha, these are simple English words, and I assure you, I read them correctly," Doctor Andrew sighed, his eyes reflecting a quiet understanding of the turmoil raging within the older man. "And I assure you, I have run these tests five times. I could hardly believe it myself. But your wolf knows the truth. During the collaboration to

    Nervously Sybille stepped into her new mate's apartment.Even though they had spent hours together in the vehicle returning to the pack, he had barely spoken to her. Kenrick had worked on his iPad the entire trip. He checked news channels reporting on events in the Kingdom and Woodland. He was meticulous, his brow furrowed in concentration.His phone also constantly buzzed and vibrated.His colleagues worldwide wanted his personal account of the events surrounding Alpha Abel and the Royals. He answered them with clipped, precise words, his voice a low rumble.Although he always treated her respectfully, she could clearly feel his underlying power.Kenrick was definitely Alpha material. His dominance and confidence radiated from him. The intense look in his eyes demanded obedience. His strong grip on her hand, when he did touch her, revealed his inner strength.Sybille knew she should not underestimate him.She had not interacted much with him before. Her attention was constantly focus

    In Woodland, a convoy of vehicles, somber and silent, rolled to a halt before the imposing, massive gates.Three vehicles peeled away from the main group, one of them a hearse carrying the body of the fallen Alpha Abel. A lone warrior approached the lead vehicle, where Kenrick sat in the back with Sybille.As the guard drew closer, he inhaled deeply, his senses sharp, and his eyes widened in shock."Alpha Kenrick," he stammered, disbelief thick in his voice. "We received no word of your arrival. We knew Alpha Abel was defeated since the pack link with him was severed, but the circumstances were shrouded in rumors."The warrior sprinted back towards the gates and pressed a button.The heavy gates began to slide open, granting the cars access to the pack lands. He sent an alert through the mind link, informing the pack of Kenrick's sudden arrival.A flurry of activity erupted within the packhouse.There was no time for formal celebrations or to prepare a grand welcome. Everyone rushed t

    “Clyde,” Joanna murmured weak as she slowly opened her eyes, her gaze meeting his.The Crown Prince, his face carved in relief and overflowing with joy, kissed her all over her face as his heart is overflowing with gratitude. The past few minutes had been a terrifying ordeal for the entire family, a roller coaster of emotions that had left them breathless.“Yes, I’m here with you,” Clyde beamed emotionally. “You scared the hell out of me, my love. What would become of me without you by my side? If you ever decide to leave, don’t forget to take me with you, this life is nothing without you.”Joanna smiled, her eyes filled with a deep, unwavering love.With difficulty, she lifted her hand to stroke his face, her touch feather-light, her eyes shining with an affection that transcended words.“Will you mark me now? Make me your legal wife and my werewolf mate?”The Crown Prince laughed, a sound of pure, unadulterated relief, and pulled her tightly against him, his tears glistening in the

    Crown Prince Clyde stood at the head of the large Council Board table, his posture rigid as the hall began to fill with spectators, their eyes eager and whispers buzzing with anticipation.Everyone was curious about the recent, chaotic events, and it was crucial to provide clear explanations, to dispel the confusion that hung heavily in the air. Once everyone had taken their seats and the Royals stood at some distance in front of him, Clyde addressed the attendees, his voice resonating with a solemn gravity.“As you all know, my wife, Joanna, was the fated mate of Alpha Abel,” he stated the obvious. “With his death, the bond was broken, not only with the marked mate but also with my wife. But Joanna is human, and she carries my twin pups, which adds an immense burden to her already fragile state.”He paused, letting his words sink in, as he heard gasps of shock ripple through the room.Some whispered among themselves, their voices laced with accusation, blaming him for what had happen

    "Jace, I can’t bear to lose her," the Crown Prince softly growled with anguish, as he leaned heavily against the cold, sterile wall outside the ward where Joanna was being examined.His knuckles were white, his body trembling with suppressed terror."What could have caused all this? Was it the breaking of the bond with Alpha Abel?""I believe so. Sybille went through the same experience, but her Lycan helped her through it," the Secretary replied gravely. "Joanna is only half-transformed, and her wolf is still too weak. And the pups, man, this is dire."Fifteen agonizing minutes later, the doctor emerged from the examination room, his face a mask of grim concern, his shoulders slumped with a heavy weariness. Clyde and Jace rushed towards him, their hearts pounding with dread. The doctor's posture alone spoke volumes, painting a bleak picture."Doctor, my wife…" the Crown Prince stammered with fear. "Will she be okay? I beg you, do everything in your power to save her. Joanna must reco

    At the sound of Sybille's voice, a feral rage consumed Alpha Abel.His eyes blazed, shifting into the predatory orbs of his wolf, and with a speed that defied human perception, he lunged at the she-wolf. His hand, a clawed weapon of raw power, closed around Sybille's throat, almost cutting off her desperate gasp."You tricked me!" he snarled, his voice a guttural growl that vibrated with unbridled fury. "You knew I would never choose you, what we had was a fleeting illusion, a ghost of the past. You came to my pack with the intention of keeping me away from Joanna, weaving a web of deceit. You were a pawn in a conspiracy, a viper in my den. But I will not surrender to you, I will reclaim my mate!"His grip tightened, the pressure crushing Sybille's windpipe, her eyes bulging as her face turning a grotesque shade of purple. A strangled gurgle escaped her lips, a desperate plea for air.Then suddenly, a figure, in a whirlwind of motion, slammed into Abel, sending him crashing to the gro
