Belladonna’s POV

I dropped the plate off in the kitchen as the head maid thanked me as they all returned to their duty post. I was so happy that I accomplished my mission, but not without having a second thought.

I was scared that I might get caught by the Alpha and the penalty might result in death. I had a second thought, my wolf was totally against my plan.

I had to get rid of Violet for good. I allowed her into the Palace in the first place because I thought she could save the man I loved so dearly.

“It's so bad I have to get back to the kitchen. Searching for her meal would be quite a difficult task to do.” I whispered, rolling my eyes. I got into the kitchen, as I playfully spoke to the chief maid for information.

“I don’t really know, but I heard that the Alpha wants to take his mate on a date. He ordered us to prepare his specials. Isn't that wonderful?” She said, displaying dreamy eyes.

“It is.” I replied.

“What do you want me to do Ma'am?” She asked with a bow.

  • My Ex-Lover’s Daughter Is My Mate   Chapter 24

    Luna's POV"What do you mean she is in the hospital? Why didn't you inform me earlier?” "Don't tell me she got hurt by Ares. I swear I'm going to kill him myself if anything happens to her." I yelled, walking out of my chambers. He ran after me down the hallway."It isn't Ares, baby. She took something poisonous, a wolfsbane." He said, I paused for a while, trying to process what I heard. "Wolfsbane?" I strutted."Yes, a wolfsbane. The maids were all thrown in the dungeon for this. They all disagreed that they had no idea about the wolfsbane in the food.”“Nevertheless, I'm sure that there is absolutely no way those maids could have gained access to the green garden where the wolfsbane was planted." He said."Are you trying to say it's an outsider? An outsider can't just get into the palace. The guards are always on alert. Has Ares looked into this matter?" I asked.''He doesn't want to know about that right now; all he wants is for his mate to feel safe. He doesn't want her to die;

  • My Ex-Lover’s Daughter Is My Mate   Chapter 25

    Violet’s POVAres held onto me the whole night. If anybody told me that he was going to care about me that much, considering where we had started from, I would have refused it right away. By the time I woke up, he wasn’t there anymore. I managed to pull myself out of bed and head to the bathroom. The water was hot against my skin, and it felt like my skin was falling off. I tried not to cry out. Healing me totally would have killed Ares. If he didn’t know how dangerous that was, I didn’t know what else to tell him. He could have even died trying to save me. And there was another thing I knew that he didn’t.He wasn’t fully healed. I didn’t know if he was just lying that he wasn’t feeling any pain. Or if he didn’t even want me to know at all. There was so much happening in the palace. A few people had died. Ares didn’t want me to know much, but I knew as much as I needed to. I finally brought myself to turn the shower off. Just as I felt, there were sores all over my body. I barely

  • My Ex-Lover’s Daughter Is My Mate   Chapter 26

    Ares’ POV“How soon is she leaving?” The priestess asked. I felt my hands balling into fists. The last thing I wanted was having Violet away from me. “In an hour,” I said, looking outside. The priestess smiled. “You have to know how important this is. To her, the pack, people that care about her, and to you. If you actually care about her.”I cared about Violet. And every single person knew that. Asking Colton to drop her off was the best decision. I could feel how much she wanted me to take her, myself. Or even spend the vacation at Kyros’ place as we had both planned… before other things happened. Luna was the only one that would have been able to take care of her. “Isn't there a solution?” I asked one more time. It was the umpteenth time I was asking the question within the past few days. “There's nothing, Alpha. Keeping her away is the best solution.” I finally nodded. Violet didn't even get to know that I didn't sleep on the same bed with her.The priestess bit her lip, toyi

  • My Ex-Lover’s Daughter Is My Mate   Chapter 27

    Violet's POVI stared at Colton as we got into the car. He had refused to tell me anything else. After telling me that every single person in the pack knew about my sores. He promised to tell me about it when I got into Kyros’ pack. “Are you finally going to tell me?” I asked, looking up at him. He ran his hands through his hair. “Can I drive at least?” he asked, and I shrugged. All I wanted was the information on who spread the information about my sores. He got into the car, exhaling from time to time. I was losing patience faster than I was letting on. “Can you just tell me everything already?”“Violet, I really do not want to hurt you. But since you are insisting, I should tell you.” I held my breath, waiting for him to tell me that it was Belladonna. I already swore that if it was, I was going to ask Colton to turn back, and I was going to tell Alpha Ares everything. And I wasn't going to relax until he actually hurt Belladonna. She was doing so much, and all of it was being

  • My Ex-Lover’s Daughter Is My Mate   Chapter 28

    Ares' POVI hurried to the backyard, where the Delta was leading me. What the hell did he mean by the priestess being dead? She just told me that she was going to find the cure for Violet's sickness about an hour ago. How could she be dead? I refused to believe it. I was already making plans on how I was going to punish the Delta. He finally stopped right in front of a row of bushes, with his eyes wide as he looked back at me. I looked at what was in front of him. It was a body. The body had the exact same build as the priestess. And the body was wearing the same clothes that the priestess had on. Just that this body was headless.There was blood everywhere. “The priestess, Your Highness,” the Delta said in a shaky voice. I knew that they hadn't ever seen anything like that in the pack. It was new. To even me. The main question was how it happened. Did someone know that she was going to find the cure for Violet's sickness? Did that person kill her to prevent that? I looked at the D

    Violet's POVAdrian's lips touched mine softly. I felt my back start to fold, and I gently pushed him away. “I don't want this, Adrian,” I said, trying my best to smile. “I don't want to ruin the friendship that we have.” He could barely look at me. He was nodding his head and shaking it at the same time with his eyes firmly on my thighs. “We are not ruining anything,” he murmured softly. “Alpha Ares does not deserve you. And you know that. You don't have to be with an old man like him. I'm the future Alpha of my pack as well.”“You could be my actual Luna. And not Alpha Ares' fuck mate.” I wanted to be mad at him, but I wasn't. I turned my neck to the side for him to see. “I'm not his fuck buddy. Nor has he mated with me yet.”“That's because he knows how good and worthy you are. He knows what having you in the pack would do for him.”“If he knew, then he wouldn't have chased me away like that.” He bit his lip, not saying anything else, and I knew that I was right. His jaw was tens

  • My Ex-Lover’s Daughter Is My Mate   Chapter 30

    Ares' POVI woke up in bed alone. I didn't remember taking my clothes off. But I was naked underneath the sheets. My head was banging. Belladonna walked in at just the same time, like she had been waiting for me to wake up.There was an unreadable expression on her face. “Some lemon water, Alpha.” She wasn't calling me Ares. Was it that she didn't just want to rest me? Or had she finally backed away? It was possible that she had now found a new mate. I didn't want to take the water from her, but I seemed helpless. I took it from her, taking small sips. “What happened yesterday?” I asked, and she looked at me with a different kind of look. “I have no idea, Alpha. But I do remember that Jackie had just left the room.”“Jackie was here last night?” I found myself asking, and she shook her head. “You obviously had too much to drink. We would love you to come downstairs and pick the exact designs you would like us to use for the event.”I frowned. Colton was usually the one handling thin

    Violet's POV I held my breath after I spoke. I wasn't planning on speaking. In fact, that was never the plan between Lynn and me. I looked over at her, and she didn't seem disappointed. Alpha Ares turned to look at me immediately. I didn't look away. I needed him to see that he actually hurt me. By hosting this party and not telling me anything about it. Ares did not look okay. There were dark circles under his eyes, and he missed a button. Something that hadn't happened since I had known him. I almost walked up to him and asked him what was wrong. I almost asked if he needed me to make any kind of soup for him. Lynn's hands were firmly in mine like she could read my thoughts. I locked eyes with her, and she shook her head. Every single person in the room was looking at me. I could tell that some of them recognised me from the last party. And for the ones that didn't, they were obviously getting the gist already. My eyes drifted down to the place where his hands were intertwined

  • My Ex-Lover’s Daughter Is My Mate   Chapter 70

    ARES' POVI didn’t know how long it was going to take, but I knew that I was going to be standing at Violet’s door for a long time. There was nothing I could even do about it. but it finally felt nice to finally fight for her. To do something for her. I was yearning for her attention too badly. She had to answer me.I hated the fact that she had to see me weak. That she had to see me speechless for the first time. It was insulting. But I knew I wouldn’t mind if it was just in front of those men. I was already planning a little surprise party for her when the guards had called my attention that those men had come to see me. I was shocked that they were back. Them, telling me that they had brought evidence. I didn’t even want to see them there. I didn’t want to have them around when Violet was having her own important day. She had just had her coronation. I knew that no one had planned a party for her just yet. I was to be the first person. She had practically let me hold her hand t

  • My Ex-Lover’s Daughter Is My Mate   Chapter 69

    VIOLET’S POVI held my gown in my hands as I headed upstairs. My heart was beating fast, against my rib cage. I was nervous, and curious at the same time. Ares, Alpha of RavenClaw was definitely not going to be the end of me. I searched the terrace for him. But he was nowhere to be found. “Ares?” I called out, hoping that he hadn’t collapsed just yet. Even if he did, I hoped that he would be able to moan out at least, for me to know exactly where he was.There wasn’t a single sound. I couldn’t stop my heart beat. It was becoming even more painful. My hand was pressed against my chest, trying to subdue the pain. It did nothing to help. It was extremely annoying that I couldn’t heal my own pain. Worse that it was feeling almost the same way as Ares said he was feeling. Could it be that I had absorbed too much of his illness? The thought was out of my mind before I could even think about it too much. I held on to the banister of the stairs as I continued looking for Ares. I finally go

  • My Ex-Lover’s Daughter Is My Mate   Chapter 68

    VIOLET’S POVI swallowed hard. What was she doing with hallucinations? Was she making any of us hallucinate? I badly wanted to inform Ares about everything, but something told me that this girl was too knowing. There were so many things she was aware of. Things she wasn’t even supposed to know. And how long was it going to take until she took over every single thing?The pack members had gone from staring at her to clapping. The only people that seemed immune to these things were me, Ares, Alpha Kyros, Jackie, and Belladonna. The five of us were staring at each other. Even Alpha Damien, Luna, Lynn and Adrian were busy clapping like no man’s business. Ares had looked at me. I knew that he was about to say something. I looked at Mira, and her eyes were on the both of us again. I gently squeezed Ares’s hands that were still in mine. That was a sign to tell him not to speak. I was relieved when he nodded at me, showing that he understood everything. I let out a small sigh of relief. W

  • My Ex-Lover’s Daughter Is My Mate   Chapter 67

    VIOLET'S POV I looked back one more time as I slipped into the priestess’ lair. I knew that everyone was going to be looking for me. It was supposed to be my crowning as a Luna that evening, but I was nowhere to be found. I should have been dressing up for the ceremony already. I hated the kind of energy that the lair was giving. But I still needed to meet with Mira. Luckily, she was still in that chair that she always was. Poring over a book. How was someone as young as she was so skilled? Her eyebrows cocked up, and he frowned. I couldn't help but wonder what was in the book that made her smile. She suddenly looked up, and the smile on her face was cleared in a second. She shut the book immediately and got up from her chair. “Luna, you're here.” She said calmly. I noticed that the excitement she had on her face the first time she saw me was gone. Was it because of everything that happened the first time I got there? “Yes”, I said, plastering a fake smile on my face. “I'm here

  • My Ex-Lover’s Daughter Is My Mate   Chapter 66

    ARES’ POVBy the time I had woken up, I had no idea what time it was. But I definitely felt better. It was like most of the pain had been taken away from my body. I moved my limbs to make sure they were still working. The presence of the little being beside me gave me some sort of peace that I didn’t know ever existed. I ran my hands through her hair. She had let me into her room. I knew that she wouldn’t have let me remain outside. There was a certain joy that came with marking all her things. There was no way she was going to sleep in this room without remembering that I was there with her on this day. There was no way she was going to stay in the room without remembering my scent.I was glad to be out of the torturous dreams that included her. I had screamed her name so much in my dreams that even my throat was sore. I wrapped my hands around Violet, resisting the urge to pull her closer. I didn’t want to wake her up. And I wasn’t sure she wanted to see me when she was awake ei

  • My Ex-Lover’s Daughter Is My Mate   Chapter 65

    VIOLET’S POVAres was the last person I was expecting at my door that morning. Lynn had told me that he was carried to his room by Jackie and her father. None of the pack members were willing to even touch him. He had lost every form of power over them. I had no idea how he was going to meet up with things or redeem himself, but it was definitely going to take him a lot. More than 90 per cent of the pack were with me. The remaining ten percent were too scared to do anything. I wanted to hold him as he practically crumpled to the ground. I was almost touched by the fact that he struggled to come to my room, even when he was obviously in pain. But I didn’t ask him to come, did I? And the way Jackie and Alpha Damien carried him to his room was funny when Lynn was describing it. I couldn’t help but laugh. Even if the laugh was definitely fake. It wasn’t from my mind. I wanted to kick his feet away from the way. I wanted to slam the door and leave him there until he woke up. I badly w

    ARES' POV“You betrayed me one more time,” Violet said, as the tears streamed down her face. “How many more chances do you want me to give you? I get tired too. I can cheat if I want as well.”I tried to reach out to her, but she continuously pushed me away. I wanted to hold her so bad. I wanted to tell her that she didn't have to cry. I wanted to tell her that she didn't have to be sad because of me. I wanted to tell her that she had the freedom to leave, even if it will crumble me and the pack. I reached for her one more time, and she had turned into thin air immediately after my fingertips brushed against her skin. The whole room was pitch black, and the only thing I could hear was her sniffling. I could barely even feel my own self. My limbs had turned numb and were lying by my sides, feeling more useless than they have in a long time.I tried to raise them one more time in the darkness, and I felt myself being thrown from a high building. I opened my mouth to scream, but no wor

    ARES' POVI stared at Jackie in shock. I could feel every single eye on me. What did she mean by saying she was carrying my child? That was not possible. I had barely even touched her. Ever in my life.The room was incredibly silent. Compared to the shouting I was actually expecting from them. They were probably waiting for me to say something, but the words refused to leave my mouth.What did I want to say to begin with? I stared down at the tiny hand that was still in mine. Violet looked up at me expectantly. I wanted to assure her so badly. I had opened my mouth to speak. Even if it was a simple nod. But I couldn't even give that much to her. It felt like the only things I could move on my own body were my eyes. I knew that I was looking guiltier than I have in a thousand years.I saw her face swiftly change from expectant to disgusted. She removed my hand from hers immediately. “Is it true?” She asked a little too calmly. Why wasn't she screaming? I felt my heart turn at the sou

  • My Ex-Lover’s Daughter Is My Mate   Chapter 62

    VIOLET’S POVThe way I was having Ares was definitely something to worry about. And so was the way I was craving him. It was becoming addictive. He was becoming a drug I felt like I could never have enough of. I was getting ready for my own mating ceremony. And the makeup artist was doing whatever magic she was performing on my face. But there I was, sitting on the chair in front of the mirror, pressing my thighs together at the thought of how he might look in a suit. I shook my head at my own self. It was finally my own mating ceremony. The day that was going to be the happiest of my life. There were so many things that I was planning on doing after the wedding, and I was finally going to. Ares had brought out a part of me that I never thought I had. He had brought out a kind of hunger that felt like it couldn’t be satiated. He had really kept to his word on me not touching him. And all I wanted to do was touch him as much as I wanted to. “You are really pretty, Luna,” one of th
