I got into the party arena, and my heart was racing fast. While I walked to the front, a familiar voice spoke in my head, "You can do it, Hilda; keep your head up high." I let out a breath of relief at that dose of encouragement.I stood up in front of everyone and paced around, snapping their faces, before I took the microphone from the anchor of the party, Mr. Cyprus. Mr. Cyprus came to me a few days ago and pleaded that I make him the anchor of the party, and I had to do it for him. He was another good human that was nice to me in the company."Good day, my distinguished gentleman and ladies... I paused a while to be certain of the aura I scented. My chest started to hurt, and the scent was drawing closer and closer until my nostrils were suffocated with that strawberry scent.Everyone snapped at me, wondering what was wrong with me."Take some water, Hilda; I see the pregnancy could be causing you to be weak and dizzy," Mr. Cyprus whispered to me before he opened the bottle of wat
HildaThe footsteps became louder, and I stood up, frightened. I snapped at a long iron rod and rushed to it. I grabbed it with my two hands while snapping through the room for when he showed up.The scent came right under my nose, and I turned around to lock eyes with none other than King Avalor. I shrieked aloud and stumbled backwards, holding the rod tightly."I found you, Hilda Storm, and you will not be able to escape me this time around." His voice sent chills through me."Any more steps closer, I will use this rod on your face." He smirked, Stalking closer, and I kept moving backward."You think I wouldn’t find you; your scent never left me for a second. The moment I entered the human realm, all I perceived was your scent, and the least place I expected you to be was in this kind of place.""How did you find out about my presence here?" I questioned."You must be very naive to ask that question. I traced your scent, and you are leaving this minute with me.""Over my dead body,
HildaI had been unconscious the moment we left the company for Richard Mansion. I had awoken the moment we got to the mansion. The guards helped me to my room, and the Doctor swiftly ran some checks on me.Aaaaaw!" I winced from the pain I felt from the bruises on my wrist as the doctor cleaned them off.He checked my blood pressure and listened to the heartbeat of my pups, and I was very anxious to know what he had to say."Your babies are doing all right; their heartbeats are as strong as before. You need to get some rest!" The doctor said this to me and slammed the door.I hope Richard is okay. The last time I saw him was in the ambulance.The doorbell rang.My heart raced and began thundering in my chest. I weakly stood up from the bed and reached out to the door. I gripped the door handle and twisted it to open it."You and I have a long talk, Hilda." Richard slipped inside with his bruised face and his hand all wrapped in bandages. His voice sent chills through my skin, and I g
HildaI opened my eyes and paced through the room, only for my eyes to fall on Richard. He was standing close to the door with his hands all folded around his chest.I stood up, wiped my sleepy face, and yawned, but immediately felt shy when it struck me that he was right at the door.I snapped the wall clock, and it was 10 a.m. in the morning. I sighed, wondering how it was possible I slept without opening my eyes all throughout the night."Good morning, Sir." I greeted him, and he just nodded at me without saying a word.I snapped at my wrist, but the bruise had all healed, and I hid my hand from his watch. trying to avoid him asking why I got so healed so fast. I rushed to the bathroom to freshen up while still worried about why he wouldn't talk to me but glared at me."I will be outside waiting for you to dress up. You can put on a beautiful dress; we are going somewhere." He said it coldly and left.What was going on with Richard? I haven't seen him with such a tight and mean fac
For more than 30 minutes, Richard stood in front of me with his hands all wrapped around his chest and wouldn’t say a word to me. The room was enveloped in silence, and his unstoppable glare gave me more fear.I stood up when I felt like using the restroom but felt dizzy and almost fell to the ground. Luckily, Richard grabbed me instead. While in his arms on the ground, tears drilled from his eyes and dropped right in my face. He glared directly into my eyes, and my entire body began trembling."Hilda!" He called my name before throwing his face up. He paused and took a deep breath."Why did you come into my life? Why did you awaken the love that was once dead? A few days before that very day I met you, I had returned from a vacation that I embarked on after my heart was broken into a million pieces when I found out that Sherry, my ex, was cheating on me. I had to travel to stay away from every memory of Sherry and me. I had told myself not to fall in love with anyone after what Sherr
Grabbing the envelope, my hands were all shaking, and my tears kept dropping on it while I tried to open it.I opened the envelope, and I found a long, handwritten note in it.I wiped my tears so as to see clearly what was written in them."Good morning, Hilda Storm!If you are reading this note, it is probably because I have left already." My heart began beating so fast that I shook my head, tapping my head, trying to trick myself into thinking that I was in a dream.It dawned on me that I was not dreaming the moment I screamed his name aloud and no one responded to me. I picked up the letter again with my hands shaking."You made my world colourful." I had so many plans for you. I loved you so much, and I hold nothing against you. I was ready to make you the queen of my empire. Sadly, I can’t take in a werewolf as a wife, especially someone whose clan murdered my parents."No, Richard, you can’t do this to me. I didn’t want to fall in love with you, but I had fallen in love with you
It was exactly 1 a.m. in the morning when I woke up to go to the restroom.Everywhere in my room smelled of strawberries and pineapple, and I wondered why. I just ignored them and went into the restroom."Ouch!!" I winced as my leg stumbled upon the side stool not far from the restroom entrance.I wobbled on with my hands on my waist, trying to find balance as my entire body was damn weak and my head spun.Just coming out of the restroom, I smelled that sweet scent again. The smell was so strong that evenWhile I was sleepy, it didn’t stop me from sniffing. So I decided to trace where it came from.I went from the room down to the living room, pacing through it to catch where the scent had come from. The thought of my reality hit me the moment I sat on the couch in the living room, as the memories of Richard and I were all in my head. Snapping around at the seat where we both had some lovely moments a few hours ago, Tears began rolling down my eyes to my cheek.I never knew what love
"Leave my apartment already and never return!" I screamed, pushing him away."I will leave Hilda, but you need to hear me out; I mean well for you. Please allow me to help you out.""I don’t need your freaky assistance; you are just being unnecessarily sarcastic, King Avalor. Everyone knows you could never want anything from me other than having my head chopped off." I smirked."Why are you taking time to kill me? Do it already and have that smug satisfaction you yell for." I inched away from him.He scurried closer, and I hit him. It felt like I was hitting her hands against a wall. His hard wall of muscle was as hard as that, and I winced.He held my waist, and I felt a bit of his thrubbling heart racing in his chest. I struggled with him to move away from me, but the more I tried to push him away, the more my body suddenly began feeling his contact. I jumped up and wiped my face."Please leave already, or I will call 911 on you this minute."I will leave right away, but don’t think
Avalor's POVWhy do I think something is wrong with my woman? I frowned."My king, is everything okay?" I nodded but still felt uneasy.I ignored the way I felt and continued with my discussion with the councils.I felt a sharp pen in my chest and sniffed a bad aura."Excuse me, my elders. Please, I need to go check up on something. I will be back to us in a jiffy. I rushed out of the throne room and rushed to my chambers.The bad aura suffocated my nose as I came closer to my room."Leave me alone. Avalor! Avalor!" Hilda's voice echoed."Noooooooo!" I pushed the door open and found a woman who pressed a pillow on Hilda's face.I changed immediately into my beast form and jumped on the woman. Hilda fell on the bed, and I snapped; she was unconscious. It got me more enraged.I grabbed the woman, removing all she had on, and to my surprise, this woman was Alex."How the hell did you get into the palace? How did you creep in?I began to hit his head against the wall. His blood splattered

Hilda5 days later.Avalor took me to the Pack Kids supermarket to shop for our pups."How do you feel about today's soltice party, my love?" He kissed my forehead. I snapped at the girls stealing looks and smiled at them.They must probably be imagining my man in their heads. I raised Avalor's wrist and kissed it, and the girls harrumphed aloud. My plan worked. I wanted them to just have a little taste of jealousy."Good day, my king! One of the girls greeted us and bowed."I am so excited about the way things are turning out, my love. Your delivery is tomorrow, and we are having another solstice party today. I can't wait to let the entire kingdom know about the only woman I see." I hit his hand off me."That lady that just greeted you—you mean you did not see her?" I frowned."Of course I did not. You are my eyes, and I saw her through your eyes."He cupped my cheek, and I smiled.Avalor is so sweet."My love, you want to buy the whole supermarket? Please, let's go back to the kingd
Hilda."I am over here, my Avi! I mind-linked with Avalor, and he snapped around.I sat down behind the car packed across the main building. Feeling very tired.Thank you, moon goddess, for saving Avalor and me from Lucas and Alex and their escapades."Where are you? Avalor's voice echoed in my head.I tried to stand up to see if I could see him, but I couldn't. I took a deep breath, trying so hard to sustain myself."I am so weak, girlfriend. But you can't give up. Our mate Avi and the pups on the way need us. Hang on for them". My wolf comforted me. My sight became blurry, and my head spun.I sniffed, and my nose caught up with Avalor's scent. I instantly knew he was near, and that made me better."I am here, my love! Avalor hugged me and helped me up."I can't work; I think we may need an ambulance. I am hurting." He brought out his cell phone and began to call the pack hospital."This is King Avalor, the Lycan King of the Red Storm Pack. I need the best doctor to join the ambulan
Avalor"You did what? I snapped at Nancy. She felt no remorse for cheating on me with my stepbrother."Alex, go ahead and kill me and let Hilda go!" I groaned."Hahahahahahaha!" Alex laughed loudly."Please, I beg you to show mercy on her and her pups. No one would drag the kingship with you. Please, she is innocent and doesn’t deserve all that she is going through." I begged ,Alex."Shut up! Avalor," she did everything to me. Because of these bitch's parents, you are still alive. You were supposed to die in that fire that very day. She will pay for that." He pointed his gun at Hilda."Be calm, my love. We are getting out here alive. Trust me!" I mind-linked with Hilda.Alex went back to where Nancy was seated, trying to find out why she remained calm. I snapped them both, and Nancy doesn’t look okay. I think she overstressed her body."We will be out of this place soon, my love," Alex said to Nancy.Lucas inched closer to Hilda, and I got even more enraged as he tried to kiss her.
Avalor's POV."Lucas,stay away and don't lay a finger on Hilda again.""And who the hell do you think you are to order me around and tell me how and when to touch my mate?" He returned his gaze to me."Show your damn face, boss!" I shrieked as the familiar aura suffocated my nose.He twisted his face above his shoulders, moved around, raised his hands, and removed the mask from his face."My goddess! Alex!" I blinked and bit my lips."Yes, it is me, bro! He clutched both his hands in his pocket."What are you doing here? I questioned him. Everything looked blurry, and I gulped."I am the boss. He began to smile. "You are what? I groaned aloud."Alex!" Hilda snapped and called out his name."You have been the boss all along. She questioned him in disbelief."You are evil! I suspected your altitudes each passing day at the palace. I knew that you had something behind those sleeves of yours, but I had no evidence for my suspicions." Hilda began to cry."It is me, Alex, bro. I know you ar
Hilda.I don't have strength anymore. I only wish that the moon goddess would take this hell wreck of life out of me right now. Just as I thought that life had finally shone its glory on me, the worst-thretched of them all surrounded me."Don't give up, Hilda. Look at Avalor over there, struggling so hard to get us out of this place. Hang on; the weaker you are, the weaker I become too. My wolf, Avira, soothed my head."If not for the fact that you are pregnant, I would have asked that you let me forward to fist on that bitch," Avira snapped in my head.Two hours later,I woke up from sleep, cleared my throat, and felt a lot better. I snapped at Avalor, and tears rolled down my cheek.What sort of humiliation is this? I mean for the Lycan king of a kingdom to be tied like a common thief. I wonder if the moon goddess is not aware of what we are both going through. Who is behind all this? Nancy must be working with someone very powerful for her guts to overwhelm her reasoning. How could
Avalor"Look who I brought in for you! Nancy's voice echoed; the sounds of footsteps that came in with her caused me to quiver, and I perceived a familiar scent.Everywhere was dark, so I couldn't see a thing, but I heard several heartbeats and body movements as they all came in with Nancy."Drop the young lady on the mattress over there and leave already. She commanded and lit the light."What the hell have you done to Hilda?" I screamed, seeing as two heavy young men laid Hilda on the floor with her hands handcuffed.Relax; she is still alive. She is yet to wake up from the energy drink you gave her."My face widened at her words, and I felt the need to break out and kill her with my bare hands."What drink are you talking about? I questioned her with a deeper voice while I fixed my eyes on Hilda."Have you imagined how we were able to get to you? She chuckled."You are a despicable bitch! I spat on her.She cleaned it up and snapped at me. She placed a slap on my face, and I grinn
Avalor's POVWhere is this place? Why is everything dark? I moved my hands, but I couldn't.Hilda! Hilda ! Hilda!Noooooooooooo! I shrieked, and all I could hear was the sound that filled the room from the echoes of my voice.Who is there? Put on the light and show your face! Moron!How the fuck did I get into this place, and what about my love?Hilda! Hilda! I shrieked and groaned profusely, but no one answered and did not show up.I don't understand what is going on. I think I'm in a dream. I shook my head sideways, gritted my teeth, and bit off my mouth to make sure I wasn't dreaming.I spat out blood, and it dawned on me that I wasn't dreaming.Who the fuck is behind all this?The door opened, and I heard the sound of footsteps as they jammed together."I told you it was not over yet, King Avalor! A familiar female voice echoed, and light was lit."You! What the hell? I gulped "Yes, it is me,Alvalor! Nancy answered."What am I doing here? Why am I chained? She chuckled"You owe m
