Della’s POVStaring at my bedside table, I glared at my phone as it continued to vibrate. It’s Jackson. He kept calling me after I hung up on him, but who cared?Whether I like it or not, I need to solve this problem and get back to Wakeland soon. My son was waiting for me.That being said, I need t
I took a deep breath and calmed down. Standing up, I sat beside him and held his hand to take his attention. I looked deep into his eyes and said, “It’s not your fault, okay? No matter what happens, we’re a family. We’ll face it all together.”The bond and pull between fated mates were far too stron
Della’s POVI blinked a couple of times in utter disbelief. I mean… Was that how bad he looked at Fae for him to even think for a second she was a selfish and stupid woman?What’s worse, he didn’t even think twice and just blurted it out as if he was so sure. If he looked at her so low like that, wh
Kylian’s POV“Mr. K, are you sure you want to attend Princess Della’s inauguration dinner in Wakeland?” Roger tried to clarify.The monotonous voice of a warrior echoed from the other end of the call. Swiveling my chair away from my window, I smiled with confidence. “Of course.”I’ve never been more
Della’s POVCompletely exhausted from my argument with Jackson, I only took a short break in my bed.Still feeling restless, I finally sat up and started packing up my things. I needed to go back to Wakeland already, but not only because of my annoyance toward Jackson. Mostly because I already miss
Della’s POVThe room was quite large, probably the second largest on the ship after mine, which wasn’t surprising considering that she’s my beta. The side window wasn’t covered with a curtain, giving the room a natural light.Everything was well organized. Even her bed had perfectly tight triangular
Gritting my teeth together, I ordered, “Follow up on this matter.”When I didn’t hear anything from her, I looked up and stared at her unresponsive facial appearance.“What? Say it!” I ordered, rage radiating in my every tone and action.She bowed her head and said with difficulty, “I’m sorry, Princ
‘Not while I’m here,’ I silently vowed to myself, feeling my heart clenched with pain.“Della!”I was jolted back into reality when I heard Albert’s booming voice echoing in my ears, paired with Aaden's hard tap on my shoulder.Blinking a couple of times, I was shocked by everything I was thinking a
Della’s POVThough I didn’t sleep well last night, I still woke up early and prepared everything I needed to visit the ruby mines.“Mommy!” Aaden ran toward me as soon as he saw me entering the dining room for breakfast.Instinctively, I bent down, caught him, and carried him in my arms. Pinching hi
Della’s POVFrustrated, I leaned back to my office chair and dropped the list of personnel files that Sapphire had gathered for the laboratory.I pinched the bridge of my nose and took a couple of deep breaths to calm myself down before I leaned on my table again, elbows on it, hands clasped togethe

She went silent for a while, and I saw her demeanor changing through the monitor.“Do you understand?” Henry pushed through.“Yes…”“Just escort them safely. That’s your sole purpose in meeting them,” he said sharply.“Yes, I’ve escorted them out safely–”Henry looked at me as if to see if I was alr
Kylian’s POVI went to the Shadow Hush, a secluded and under-bankruptcy bar I found, bought, and remodeled. Just as it’s name, it’s a well-hidden place and a perfect location to unveil secrets without fear of being discovered.Unbeknownst to them, it’s one of my critical information centers in Wakel
“You know, I’ve always wondered… what kind of history do you have with Mr. K? He’s not someone who takes notice of people easily,” she asked.Merely tilting my head and feigning mild amusement, I asked with a raised brow, “Shouldn’t you be asking him that question instead?”How would I know what’s g
Della’s POVActing shocked, I stared nonchalantly at Rylee and blinked a couple of times as though I was in deep confusion before I asked, “What do you mean, Princess?”Rylee, utterly unfazed by my question, turned to face me and crossed her arms over her chest. She leaned her weight on the right si
My jaw tightened, and my hands curled into fists. Stepping forward, I replied in an icy voice, “Krendrell isn’t the manager of this place anymore, Mason. You should learn to restrain yourself before I report this disgusting behavior of yours to the Lycan Princess.”Unfazed, Mason hysterically laughe
