Mila’s POVI crossed my arms over my chest and demanded sharply “Why is she still talking to you? Why haven’t you told her that you’re no longer her…. Master and deleted her number?”“Because I forgot all about her the second I met you. I forgot to call her or block her because nothing mattered more than you, Mila. Please….. Believe me” he pleaded.I keep seeing the photo I just saw, my brain kept conjuring it and I found that I can’t recognize the person standing in front of me. I thought he was someone I got to know a little, but turns out I never did.I felt scared of him for the very first time. I didn’t even fear him the first time we met because I didn’t have any sort of emotions back then, but now I do… because of him.“He swore he’d never hurt us, you’re exaggerating!” Tina complained.Was I?Well I can’t help it! I am scared. What I just discovered about him scared me! I can’t just ignore that and pretend to be okay.He began to take another step in my direction but halted wh
Ryan’s POVShe was crying heartily and it caused my heart to break more than it already was.I was mad at her for thinking that after everything we shared in the past week, I would never even think about hurting her.And because I was deeply hurt and angry myself, I took a method to prove my intentions for her that wasn’t exactly the best but turned out to be really effective.I promised myself to wait for her to be ready for me to touch her intimately, but I was too angry and scared of losing her, I had no other way to show her that she can never feel pain when she is with me.“Do something!” my wolf Sword urged me impatiently to stop her crying because he can’t take her pain anymore.“I love you too, with everything I have. I will always love you Mila” I said soothingly, wiping her tears away delicately.It did the trick, she stopped sobbing and gazed at me with a wide, innocent look that made me melt on the inside. I could feel how much she longed for this moment, for someone to lo
Mila’s POVOh goddess please don’t let it be something that I can’t handle!I prayed heartily in my head as I waited for Ryan to tell me what else he has been hiding from me.“Don’t panic okay? I need you to…” he was speaking calmly, trying to prepare me but that just caused me to be more nervous because when someone usually starts with ‘don’t panic’ then it means that I will definitely panic!“Just say it” I demanded impatiently.“We are planning a war against the King’s pack to kill them, free the other girls, and stop this monstrosity from ruining more lives” he said in one breath.I stared at him in stunned silence for a while as my brain tried to comprehend what he just said, it didn’t take very long though before I not only panicked, but went almost hysterical as I sat up abruptly and almost shouted “Are you out of your minds! We have barely had time to be free of that place and we are still struggling to believe we are even free in the first pace, and you want to go and get you
Andrea’s POV“You look different” I said to Mila curiously as we walked through the store trying to buy clothes for both of us.We met after breakfast because Ryan and Alec both had important pack business to attend to, so I mind linked Mila to come with me to explore the pack for the first time and buy some new clothes per Alec’s suggestion.I wasn’t a shopping addict or anything but that was probably because I never had enough money to go shopping in the first place. But I found the activity quite entertaining and was a good approach to pass the time.Why did I need to pass the time you ask?Because every second I spend away from Alec makes me miss him more. He became the center of my world in just a few days of fully accepting the bond and I will be confident enough to say that he feels the same way if not more considering how every time we meet after spending some time apart, his blue eyes soften with so much love, it makes my heart stutter and my breath catch. Aside from that, th
Alec’s POVI didn’t think Adrian would go all out on his speech to Andy but man he went above and beyond for his apology which confirmed how much he truly regretted his actions against her.I turned my head to see Andy’s reaction and saw her taken aback as well, telling me she also wasn’t expecting those heartfelt words to be said to her by him.She blinked a few times and cleared her throat but her voice still came out a little thick with emotion as she said “Thank you Adrian. I know you had your reasons for what you did so… I… don’t really blame you. I hope too that… you can really see me as a sister one day and forgive me for hurting Alec”“It’s in the past. I get why you did it and I am just grateful that you managed to turn things around” he said gently.She tightened her hold on my hand and I raised it to my mouth and kissed it softly, making her turn her head towards me lovingly.I felt very relieved that I no longer need to stand up to Adrian to protect Andrea from him. Being
Alec’s POVI sat at the head of the meeting table with Andy in my arms, her arms wrapped around my neck and her face buried against the side of my neck.She was still feeling a mixture of anxiousness and insecurity both from the upcoming battle and from being jealous by Davina.I printed soft kisses on her cheek softly as we waited for the portal to appear.Adrian was sitting on my left side with Rhea sitting next to him, while Ryan and Mila were on my right side.I noticed there was one other person missing from the meeting and I turned my head towards Adrian and asked him casually “Derek won’t join us?”He shook his head, speaking firmly “I want him to stay here with the ladies and keep them company until we come back” then followed through the mind link to keep Andy from hearing the real reason “We can’t all go and leave the packs exposed without any figure of authority…. Just in case something happens”I nodded curtly without looking at him and remained quiet after that.A few min
Alec’s POVEventually Adrian’s laughter did turn into coughing following the intense glare he received from Andy after she figured out that he purposefully said what he said to mess with her.“Thank you, I’m actually only three months pregnant, so I’m still not showing” Davina said lightly, oblivious towards the real reason Andrea said what she said.Andy smiled back awkwardly while her cheeks started to blush a little.She directed another intense hard look at Adrian who was smiling back at her innocently.She relaxed more against me and I sensed her heavy mood shifting towards relief.I leaned closer to her and kissed her on the side of her neck where the source of her addicting scent comes from and where I can’t wait to leave my mark on to let the whole world know that this beautiful girl is mine.She melted and cupped my cheek tenderly in one hand.The words I love you were dying to escape from my lips but I held them in barely. I wanted to say them when we are alone, facing each
Alec’s POVShe stared at me with wide, surprised eyes, catching on to my love confession for her.Even though she should have felt my love for her all this time we spent together the last few days, but she still seemed surprised that I said it.Her eyes watered all over again while I felt like her heart was shivering as it was beating irregularly inside her ribcage.“Say it…. Say it again” she pleaded in a thick, vulnerable tone that caused a slash of pain to go through me when I realized how much she wasn’t used to hearing those words throughout her entire life. How much she longed to hear them.“I love you, Andy. I love you beyond limits, beyond words, beyond life. I love you so much I could shout it from the rooftop of this pack house just to let the whole world know that you are mine and mine alone. I love you and will continue to do so and say so for as long as we both shall live, I vow” I said tenderly.She broke into emotional, happy sobs and went down on her own knees to hug m
Another book finished and another thank you to everyone who reached this far and finished the book, I’m glad you stuck around and went through this journey with me. I hope it met your expectations and was worth your coins and bonuses. I have to admit, this was the hardest book to write until now. Not for lack of imagination, but more like lack of motivation in addition to multiple sicknesses that overtook me through the course of writing this book, it all made me spend many days not having the right mood to write and I didn’t force it because I would never write unless I was focused one hundred percent otherwise it wouldn’t be fair to my characters nor readers. But I am glad I was finally able to pull through and finish it and it all comes down to one person who kept me going. This book is dedicated to you, you made me have the energy and will to keep writing despite everything. When it felt like no one else was reading the book, you gave me everything I needed to continue writing
The Moon Goddess’s POVIf you ask me what are the best moments I enjoy watching between two mates I have paired together, I will have more than one answer for you.The moment they first meet and their wolves whisper that one word I love hearing the most, the moment they pretend they hate and loathe each other or act as if they hate the fact that they were each other’s mates or even when they get angry with me for mating them, the moment they begin to feel that tiny little spark of love but try as hell to hide it even from themselves, the moment they start with a verbal or physical angry fight and end up kissing each other heatedly, the moment they show their care for each other even when they visibly and stubbornly insist they don’t, the moment they finally accept and admit how much they are madly in love with the other, and even the small little moments they do or say something that shows me how right I was to pair them together…. Like this moment right now for example.It was three
Andrea’s POVAfter what seemed like forever, she nodded her head at him and looked down at his hand that was clamped over her mouth, asking him to remove it so she can talk.“Keep your voice down” he asked gently before removing his hand away, and got off her, giving her a little space to sit up against the wall.She had wavy, long, brown hair that she kept tied in a low pony tail. Her brown eyes were gazing at Robert uncertainly, unsure about his claim that he wouldn’t harm her even if she agrees to help.“How will you break the spell on the bracelet? Alpha King is the only one who has the key to unlock it” she said in a small, raspy voice.“Are you going to help us?” he asked pressingly before answering her earlier question.“If you promise to let me live after I uncast it. Give me your word” she said tensely.“You have my word. As soon as you uncast the spell, your freedom is yours. You can either portal out of here and go anywhere you want or you can stay until the battle is over
Andrea’s POVRobert was busying himself with transferring the food from the trolley to the small round table when he got Jude’s text.He took his phone out of his black jeans pocket and visibly stiffened in his place after reading it.He started typing after a few seconds and Jude read his reply out loud “There is no way I am doing anything to hurt her. Find another way while I feed her, she’s starving”Davina said heartily “Ethan please! Is there anyway you can…. I don’t know! Cut the feed or something! Make it look like the camera broke down. They probably won’t interrupt him just to fix it in the middle of his paid session right?”“That won’t work, a camera once broke down during one of the sessions and they…. moved us to another room instantly” Mila said nervously before lowering her head down sadly.Ryan squeezed her shoulder supportively and raised her head back up by touching her chin gently.They looked at each other without exchanging words and she nodded her head at him emot
Andrea’s POV“A man by the name of Ryan Evans told me about this place. He’s a dear friend of mine and we regularly keep in touch. Told me he bought a slave from you a while back and seemed pretty satisfied with his purchase. It tempted me to visit this place and experience it for myself” Robert said egotistically.Ryan put his arm around Mila protectively after what Robert said. She leaned into him and clutched his shirt tightly.It was the answer Alec and Ryan suggested for Robert to say. It seemed fitting considering he met him pretty recently and would most probably remember Ryan’s name more than any other name Robert might come up with to avoid any suspicion and further questioning by alpha King.Alpha King’s face split into a bright grin as he nodded his head enthusiastically “Oh yes, I remember beta Ryan. I also remember that slave he purchased, she was a long time favorite of mine. It was a little sad to part with her because she was pretty useful around here but well…beta Rya
Andrea’s POVI released a deep sigh for what felt like the thousand times in the past hour alone.I was barely holding it together but I could feel that control slowly slipping the closer we reach to the go time of the battle.Alec made sure to keep me by his side the entire day today, knowing how much I need him by my side for as long as possible before he leaves.Yesterday was a turning point for us, not just because we made love multiple times and confessed our love to each other, but also because I realized how much his love for me got me out of my darkness and gave me a new happy beginning I never thought I would be able to have before he came along. Being with him takes all my fears and pain away. Being with him makes me feel blessed, safe, and happy.That’s why I was slowly getting restless the closer it gets to his departure. I needed him like I needed air, like I needed my beating heart.I cannot lose him, not now, not ever.Everyone was ready and on alert. All the warriors f
Andrea’s POV“You have no idea how much you telling her you love her really affected her Alec” I mind linked him affectionately.It’s been two hours since our wolves officially met each other and they are still inseparable until now. They won’t let us shift back yet despite Alec having a ton of responsibilities to do and prepare for tomorrow.“She’s truly adorable, Maddox is totally smitten” Alec said lovingly.I chuckled and asked him lightly “I want to talk to him as well, don’t shift right away ok?”“He wants to meet you too. I finally got him to start saying goodbye, they are reluctant but he does understand that I have somethings that need to be done before tomorrow. I’m sorry I’m going to have to leave you on your own until dinner” he said apologetically.“Don’t worry about me I will hang out with Mila. I love you”“I love you too, Andy”I shifted back into my body while Maddox stayed in his form, gazing at me with glowing light blue eyes.I stepped closer to him, I didn’t need
Alec’s POV Her outburst took me a little by surprise but it kind of made me admire her more. Okay, yes I was trying to protect her from the scary truth, I didn’t want to make her imagine the worst case scenario or make her fears worsen for tomorrow, but she also had a point… kind of. She’s not eight anymore. She will become my Luna and she needs to learn to remain strong in the face of any threat or doom that might or might not come at us in the following years. If she falls apart, the rest of the pack will fall apart as well so she needs to keep her fears well hidden and stand strong despite everything. A part of me wanted to keep her protected and hide her from ever getting hurt or scared again, but a bigger part completely understood her. I said she isn’t weak before and I meant it. She is really strong, so strong because despite falling apart consistently in the past few days, she still picked herself up and handled everything that was thrown at her despite how hard it was to t
Alec’s POV“Say it again” I asked softly, my soul requesting to hear this sentence over and over again. I realized that I too longed for that sentence to be said to me. I wasn’t as deprived of love as she was for the past ten years, but let’s just say it’s been a rough month that had me realizing that I needed her in my life now more than ever and was thankful; despite the very horrible circumstances in which we met, that I had finally found her… My fated mate, the one chosen for me by the moon goddess. I pray she forgives me for cursing her out at first because I seriously thought she had it out for me for making this girl my mate, but now I know she was really giving me exactly who I deserve to spend the rest of my life loving and caring for.She smiled, knowing how much her admitting her feelings to me made me very delighted.“I love you so hard, Alec” she said tenderly with a bright smile, the brightest
