I thought you might be interested in Duncan’s pov :)
Gavin I was missing my mate like crazy. I wanted her so badly. I regretted my decision to reject her. I should have accepted her and kept her safe. I leave my office and go to my Alpha's office. I need to ask if there is any news of Apphia. My wolf and I are desperate to get her back. Duncan only talks to me when we talk about the pack and work. I'm told by an omega that he saw Duncan in the backyard, and I go there. However, when I reach the packhouse backyard, I hear screaming. "Let me go!" a woman screams. "No, why are you running away from me?! " That sounds like my Alpha. I rush down the woods, where the voices come from into the clearing, following my Alpha's disgruntled voice. Duncan is holding a girl in his arms. I recognize her as our former gamma's daughter, Nalani. She is pushing him away, but he doesn't release her, holding her tightly against his chest. "Duncan! What do you think you're doing?" I run towards them, but he growls at me. "Dude, she doesn't want you
Apphia"Do you want me to fuck you, Apphia?" Nicholas' salacious' voice asks in my ear. I nod eagerly. I'm lying on the bed naked, my legs spread wide. My breath is ragged. "Nicholas!" I moan as he sucks my nipples. My body is burning with need. I want him in me so badly. My pussy is dripping. He smirks and slowly aligns himself on my entrance, his eyes heating with raw desire. "Please," I beg. He enjoys my pleas. "I love how you moan my name, baby," his fingers trail to touch my inner thighs, and I tremble. "Please," I breathe. "But you haven't yet said it, baby," his fingers leave my legs and trail across my stomach and up to my breasts, caressing them and fondling them. I cry out. I feel like I'm going to come with his touch. "I want you in me, please," I cry, desperate now. A cruel smile plays on his mouth as he slips his long fingers into my pussy. "You're ready for me, Apphia,"My eyes are darkening as I stare at the dark prince of lust. He is different. So carnal,
Apphia"This is one of the packhouses. It mostly shelters people we rescued from battles and different vile life circumstances," she explains as we walk to the entrance. This packhouse alone shelters over 500 people. We enter the extravagant mansion, and everyone is friendly and loves Anaiah. They want her attention, and she gives each one of them, talking with a perfect smile and just being so elegant and composed. She also introduces me to the people, telling them I'm their new Luna and warmly asking them not to be too hard on me. They crack a few jokes, and I'm in awe watching her. Eight hours later, it was getting late. Spending a day with Anaiah and visiting the packhouses was blissful. Instead of teleporting back to the castle, we walked as we had a heavy late lunch at the third packhouse. "Did you enjoy yourself today, dear?" she asks. “ I did, thank you for taking me,” "Next, I'll take you to the new schools on the outskirts of the city we are building. Not only that, but
My whole life has been harsh. I have no purpose but to serve my pack, who constantly abuse me because they blame me for the death of my mother, the pack's beloved Luna Harper. My father, alpha Thomas Aeson, and brother, Duncan, don't care about me anymore. They don't defend me from the bullies. I cook and clean; on top of that, I'm their punching bag. I've been abused verbally and physically by everyone who could. I don't always let them mistreat me; I fight back, but when I do, the punishments I receive are harsher. My name is Apphia Aeson. I'm seventeen years old. I belong to the werewolf pack called Ivory Moon pack. I haven't shifted yet, so everyone is stronger than I am "Apphia!" I shudder when I hear the voice that calls me. He walks in with angry-filled eyes on me. He approaches me and slaps me across the face. I fall to the ground. "Where the fuck were you?" he roars. I shut my eyes, waiting for the burn on my cheek to dissipate. "I was- doing my assignment," I
Apphia"Hey, freak, chef is looking for you," Rory, one of my greatest assailants, says. He is evil and once beat me to a pulp because I rejected his advances. He left me in the cold streets, bleeding. I still don't know how I survived that night. I found myself in the hospital the following day. However, I couldn't continue with treatment because I was not allowed any medical care. " Dickass," I growl. His eyes flash. Damn, I angered him again. Rory grabs my hair and pushes me against the wall. He raises his fist to punch me, but I kick him in the balls with my knee. He doubles over, cussing at me, and I run to the kitchen."Where the fuck were you? Dinner isn't going to make itself!" Jeff shouts as soon as he sets his eyes on me. "We have many dishes to prepare. Alpha Amir is coming early to attend young Alpha Duncan's inauguration next week," I frown at the mention of that alpha. Amir is an insufferable, creepy Lycan from a neighboring pack who does business with my father.
ApphiaSapphire blue eyes, jet black hair, and the loveliest smile I've ever seen. He is perfect in every way, yet I can't make out his face. I'm lying on my back, my body trembling as his fingers tease their way to my core. "You're so perfect, Apphia," the stranger whispers in my ear. "I want to mark your neck and make you mine for real," His delicious lips descend on mine, and he pushes his tongue between my lips, exploring my mouth. His long, slender fingers are caressing my skin delicately, and I feel a burning sensation throughout my body. My pussy is pulsating and dripping for him. "You're mine, baby," he murmurs, eyes consumed with lust. His lips are subjecting me to more pleasure as he leaves trails of kisses on my skin. My breath is irregular. "Say it," "Hmm," a moan bubbles from my chest as I rock my hips back and forth against his massive hardness. "Say it," he orders. I shiver, and then warmth spreads as his delicious scent shrouds me. "I'm... Yours," His slow
Apphia"Y- you're my mate," my voice is unrecognizable to my ears. I feel a lump growing in my throat. "Shut up! I'm not your mate," he commands. My eyes widen in shock, and a whimper escapes my mouth at his harshness. Gavin grabs my elbow; sparks erupt over my arm again. My heart sprints as he discreetly drags me away from the packhouse into the forest where no one can see or hear us. "No," I whimper, knowing what he is about to do. Fear settles in my stomach at the thought of not being wanted by my soulmate. Even though mates are given by the moon goddess, they can still reject each other and break the bond. There is no doubt Gavin brought me here to reject me. I feel a burning pain in my chest, and tears fill my eyes. "You've dragged me here to reject me, " I say, my voice quiet. "Of course. What choice do I have?!" he growls, running a hand through dark brown hair, " You are the reason Luna, your mother, is dead. Because of your selfishness," Those words from his lips
ApphiaOn my way outside, I see Gavin in the common area. He's making out with the pack slut, Calla. I almost puke at the sight, and the pain in my chest intensifies."Hey, slut, stop," Calla calls me in her nasal voice. I don't stop walking. "Apphia!" she shouts. I stop and cock my head to look at her. "Did you not hear me call you?" she asks, getting off Gavi's lap and walks to me. "You said slut, and the only slut I see in this room is you," I say, making Nalani and Vivian burst into laughter. The two girls are never mean to me. Nalani tries to make conversation with me, and even go as far as to defend me from bullies. Calla gasps and attempts to slap me, but a growl from Gavin stops her hand in mid-air. I stare at my ex-mate; he has a blank expression. "Don't fucking dare hit my- her, Calla," "I won't fight her. Apphia needs to reserve her energy for Amir. He is taking her to his pack tomorrow, "Calla laughs. My eyes widen with fear. "What?!" Gavin, and Nalani boom, th

I moan as he sucks my nipples. My body is burning with need. I want him in me so badly. My pussy is dripping. He smirks and slowly aligns himself on my entrance, his eyes heating with raw desire.

Duncan I felt it, and my heart felt like it was being torn from my chest. My sister, my only sister's bond, had been severed from the Ivory moon pack, and as the new alpha, I felt it. It hurt. It has been two months since she's been missing, and I'm doing everything to find her, but it's futile as the royal city is too vast. Gavin, too, is beside himself with regret. He almost went crazy when he felt the bond that connected Apphia to the pack break. My father, the old bastard, didn't care too much about it or didn't show it, but I saw concern in his eyes. There are only a few reasons pack links are severed, either death or entering a new pack. I pray each waking moment that it is the latter. My fingers touch the the locket chain around my neck. It was given to me by Apphia long ago, on my 18th birthday. She came to my room all shy and adorable after school to give it to me and wish me a happy birthday. But I was harsh to her and ordered her to leave. She put a box on my dresser and
Apphia "You don't have to give me an answer now. Think about it," Maximus says. I nod at last, and he returns the nod. I need to learn more about his pack. Last time, he mentioned he has a fast-growing pack in the city. My wolf is suddenly alert and excited. 'Our mate is nearby,' "We should go back before they send an army to look for you,""I'll be in shortly," Without glancing back, I follow my mate's intoxicating scent. However, what I see makes my heart shatter. A hot brunette in a skimpy outfit has her arms on him while he holds her arms, gazing at each other. Nicholas' gaze meets mine, and his eyes widen. Tears stream down my face, and I turn on my heel and run from there. "Apphia!" I hear him call. Nicholas' povWhen I couldn't find Apphia inside, I searched for her in the garden. Unfortunately, my former girlfriend, Brooklyn, followed me and started to whine about me introducing another woman as my Luna, which hurt her feelings. "Nicholas, she can't please you how I can
ApphiaNicholas looks handsome in an all-black ensemble that seems too tight on his body. His muscular body is shown off, and his hair is tousled as usual. My body heats up, and I blush again. We leave the piano room immediately after Lily goes out. My apprehension is back; if Nicholas wasn't holding my hand, I couldn't have gone through this with this ceremony. "Are you ready?" he asks as we reach the back of the castle where the party is. " As ready as I'll ever be," I exhale. Nicholas kisses my temple and wraps a protective arm around my waist. We step into the garden, and I'm mesmerized by its beauty. It's like walking into a magical place decorated with shimmering lights, and lanterns. The garden is filled with the city's elites and alphas, all dressed most finely, chatting and holding glasses of champagne. How did they even prepare this in such a short time? Indeed, Lady Anaiah knew how to throw a party. There is even a huge stage set at the end of the red carpet. " How m
The following morning, I woke up from my sleep and went to the shower. I quickly dressed in a black dress and tights and went to the spiral table to smell my flowers and read my note, as always. I make my way to the kitchen as I’m hungry. I find Knox in the great room on my way. He is frowning and looking at his phone. "Good morning," I greet. Knox looks up from his phone and smiles at me. "Morning, where are you going?" he asks. "I'm going to see if I can find something to eat in the kitchen. I'm hungry," I say, rubbing my stomach. "I'll come, too. I missed breakfast," We go to the kitchen, and as we approach, something incredible is cooking. Mr. and Mrs. Wilson are there; they beam to see us and bow their heads. "Luna Apphia, Prince Knox, what can we do for you?" Mr Wilson asks with a sweet smile. "We are hungry," Knox says, sitting on the island. Mrs. Wilson prepares food for us and then puts it before us. The plates are filled with pancakes, bacon, scrambled, and sa
Vicky and I go downstairs and go outside, where a driver awaits us. A man comes from the driver's seat and bows to us. "Luna, Miss Altamirano," he bows, "My name is Cedric, and I'll be your driver," I sigh again. Luna's title seems so heavy. However, titles and formalities are a show of rank and respect. I plan to get used to it since nothing will be done about it. Drake comes out of the house, looking rather happy. Vicky runs to him and kisses his lips. My eyes widened; I didn't know the two were dating. Drake pulls away, smiling nervously. He faces me, "So, I heard you two are going shopping?" he says. I nod. " To the mall!" cheers Vicky, jumping in the car. Cedric opens the door for me, "Thank you," I say, a bit embarrassed that he has to do that for me. I slide in the backseat, and Drake enters the front passenger seat. The ride to the mall is pleasant, and I'm looking out the window. The Sapphire Lycan moon pack is far better than my expectations. The houses
When I opened my eyes early in the morning, the first person I thought of was Nicholas. He is my mate! I clutched my chest. 'Meow,' my cat purrs. I smile and caress her fur gently. "Good morning, beautiful," 'Meow,' I get out of bed, and to my surprise, my senses are more transparent than ever, and I can still feel Ziora. I thought she'd have left again, so I didn't want to hold hope. 'You're back for good,' 'I'm sorry for leaving you. I didn't mean to. I was trapped, but I'm free now,' 'Just don't go away again, please,' ' I won't,' After chatting with my wolf, I slid off the bed, and walk towards the spiral glass table where a fresh bouquet and a note awaits me. I smell the pink flowers and read the note. Good morning, my mate. I hope you had a lovely night. Mine wasn't great because I missed you. Love, Nicholas. Something about these flowers and notes brings life back into me. I head to the shower. After my shower. I blow-dry my hair and brush it. I wear a linen
