Ares’s POV

I walked back into the palace with wobbly feet. I couldn’t believe what had just happened. Who could have sent that man? As soon as I walked back into the palace, I saw Belladonna there again.

She was barely giving me any space, and I kind of liked it. I didn’t want to do anything I couldn’t account for. I didn’t want to drink either.

The mystery of what the previous priestess was about to do before her head was cut off was still a mystery to me. We hadn’t figured that out yet. “Is there any issue?” I asked, and she shook her head.

“It’s not important for now, but what happened? I saw how you were hurrying downstairs.” I looked away. “I got a message from someone. Apparently, they know exactly who is with Violet and probably where she was.

Her eyes lighted up unnaturally. It seemed supernatural, in fact. “So where is she? And when are you going?”

“Tomorrow. And no, I don’t know where she is. That is what I’m going to find out.”

“Do you want me to come with you?” she asked,

    Ares’s POV I could barely sleep a wink as I waited for the sun to rise. Someone has said they had information as to where Violet might be. It was six o'clock on the dot when I got up and headed out of the palace. I could have easily disobeyed the person that passed the information. I tried not to think about the fact that I had given orders while I was drunk. The fact that I didn't remember doing all those things was alarming. But I couldn't argue with them. It was shameful enough that I was drunk. The whole pack had heard about it. If there was any atom of respect left for me from the pack members after I had asked Colton to take Violet away, it was gone at the news of me asking people to abduct Violet while I was drunk. I could never really comprehend the issue. Or how it managed to spread round the whole pack to the extent that even the Omegas knew about it. I didn't miss their snickering whenever they walked past. Even if Violet returned, what was the assurance that she was

    Violet’s POVFinally, I was going to see them. I couldn’t ignore the gut feeling that was telling me to pretend that I wasn’t feeling okay. Would that somehow save me? Before I could try to fake a stomach ache, I was already dragged outside by my hair. I turned back to see if Eric was following. He was walking slowly behind us. His eyes were sad, and he could barely look at me. I wanted to ask him what happened. Was he sad because he was remembering everything that happened the night before? Or was he sad because he had remembered what Ares had done to him? Or worse, was he sad and scared for me? I didn’t want to think that far. Everything was going to be fine. The weather was still gloomy, just the way I was feeling. Eric’s voice was ever present in my head, telling me all the things that Ares had done to him. I still couldn't comprehend everything I heard. “Move!” one of the men said, shoving me by the shoulder so hard that I fell to the ground. He grabbed me up by my hair agai

    Violet’sPOV I did not bother to open my mouth to say anything. It would be totally useless to throw my legs either. I was a little excited to see him. But now, that feeling is gone. There was no need to be excited at the sight of the person that had tried to hurt me in the least moment I had expected. My ass and my back were on fire. I wanted to cry, but definitely not in front of him.“Why didn't you fight back?” He asked. Was that anger in his voice? “You and I know that you could have easily pushed them away if you wanted. But you just decided to be weak. Today of all days. Today when you were supposed to show me how you really are, you decided to fuck up.” I looked up. “Why would I show you anything?!” I fired back. “After everything you have done to me? After everything I've been through in your hands? After everything I've been through because of the people that you have hurt in the past?”He stopped in his tracks. I held my breath as I waited for him to apologise to me. He

    Ares’ POV I watched how tiny she looked on the bed. How had she grown so much confidence? It was hot as fuck, even if it was stupid of her to start an argument with the Alpha of her pack. It made me remember someone. The last person I wanted to remember that day. Even as she spoke, it felt like it wasn't her. Her collarbones were prominent, and I was sure I could definitely count her ribs underneath her dress.I placed my hands on them, and she flinched. She was sleeping for fuck's sake, and she could still feel the pain in her back. I pretended like I didn't see the scar when I went to pick her up. Or the red marks on her face that were definitely from slapping. Even Belladonna had added to that. Or the splinters of wood that were still on her face. She was not lying down on them. I wanted to be angry, but I couldn't. My hands felt too weak to even form any kind of fists. She was extremely weak. And she wasn't healing quickly. Was it all me? Was she that weak because she had trie

    Violet’s POVI hurried back to the room, crawling on the steps before Ares could even come out and see me. That was a close call.At some point, I felt bad. All nice and cosy since he said he wanted to take care of me. But that was what he said before, right? That was the one thing he promised to do.All I had to do was go on a date, get poisoned by someone in the pack, and he changed totally. He could not tolerate my ugly face for even a day before he sent me out. Well, my face was okay now, and my back was not. Was he going to send me back because of my ugly back too? Ares saying he wants to take care of me is the one thing I would not believe. He had promised the same thing before. And if he goes to dump me at Alpha Kyros, I don’t think I would be shocked either. It wasn’t the first time, was it?All I wanted to see was~~~~I had woken up, and the room was empty. I didn’t have that much hope to even see him there. But I could swear I felt his kiss on my forehead, but I didn’t kn

    Ares’ POVViolet was being nice. Too nice for my liking. Even when she was trying to be nice, she was never as nice as that. I hoped to hell that she was not pretending. Because if she was pretending, I could as well just go to hell. She was being nice, fine. But she was quite overdoing it. The Elders wanted to have a meeting with her as regards the mating ceremony. I already knew what her response was going to be. And I had already fucked up by bringing the meeting while I was just five minutes into being nice with her. She was at least smart enough to put two and two together. And it wouldn’t take her as much time as it would take a normal person. If she hadn’t already tried understanding everything herself.Maybe there was just no need to pretend with her. I could just go straight up and tell her what she needed to do. If she was ever going to agree with me, of course.She was still staring at me when a knock came at the door. I groaned internally for not locking the door when I

    Violet’s POVDid I seem freer? Or was I imagining things? I was smiling everywhere after that kiss with Ares. I had honestly hoped for him to push me away. But he didn’t. He genuinely kissed me. I didn’t want to believe that he was acting with me. He wasn’t. I wanted to believe and hope that he wasn’t playing with me again. I tried to get rid of the thought that he was just playing another game with me as I walked with him through the garden. “You said you wanted to talk?” I asked him, and he nodded.“I think the Elders would prefer to talk to you first.” I nodded, looking at how my hand fit in his perfectly. I blinked. I didn’t want to imagine any more things that weren’t meant to be. That was the one thing I didn’t want to do. I was doing perfectly well without my imaginations. “Just don’t get angry at whatever they might ask of you, because I will be asking you just the same thing.”I wanted to ask what more he was going to say or what the elders were going to say, because he de

    Violet’s POV​“No, not that one,” I whined. “The wine-coloured dress behind the blue one.” Ares was trying so hard to pack my clothes. And trust me, I was not making any part of it easy for him. The only part I agreed to pack for myself was my undies. I wanted him to pack them. And I was making it difficult for him with the description of the colours. He was thinking I was in so much pain, so he did not complain.“That’s the last one,” he finally announced as he pushed one of my gowns into the bag. The car was ready, and he led me downstairs. The people at the pack were now bowing down to greet Ares again. I could see the pride on his face as they did that. “Where are you guys going?” Belladonna asked, blocking the exit for the both of us. I wanted to complain, but talking to her was the last thing I wanted to do. As far as I could remember, her business was always with Ares. “Can you just move out of the way?” Ares asked, but she still had her eyes locked on me. I couldn’t help b

    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

    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

    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

    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

    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
