I threw my head back and laughed at all our good memories as I walked down the corridor that led to Asher's room.Or rather, Alpha King Asher's room.It was the eve of my boyfriend's coronation, and he had asked me to be his Luna last night. My joy knew no bounds! Finally, we were going to be together. I was hurt and heartbroken when I first found out we weren't mates, but when he told me he didn't care and only wanted to be with me, I knew that I was the luckiest girl in the entire Werewolf kingdom! And Asher? He was the sweetest man, and I loved him with everything I had.As I approached the door of his room, I started to hear strange noises. The first sounded like a breathless moans from him. I narrowed my eyes on the door as I walked closer, my footsteps grew slower as I clutched the wrapped box I had carefully hidden his coronation gift in.The closer I got, the louder the sounds became."Yes baby! Fucking yes!" I heard him scream.I paused immediately. Blood drained from my face as I froze in front of his room door. Everything in me was telling me to turn around and run, run as fast as I could, but I couldn't. I wanted to see for myself, I wanted to see that my ears were deceiving me, and the sounds of flesh slapping against flesh was not what I thought it was.So, I took the first step forward and there was no turning back. I was inside his room, watching him as he thrust himself into my foster sister's body. Her back was arched, and he spanked her ass repeatedly. Hearing her scream Asher's name the way I used to made me sick to my stomach."Who's daddy's precious mate?!" Asher growled, pulling her hair backwards, while the pace of his strokes hastened.Adeline - my foster sister - was red with pleasure. She dug her fingers into the sheets and screamed."I'm daddy's precious mate!"My trembling fingers could no longer hold the box. I watched it slip from my fingers and crash to the ground. The noise was the only thing loud enough to shock the both of them.Asher pulled out of Adeline immediately, and fell into the bed. I watched as Adeline pulled the duvet up to her chest to cover her naked breasts, but Asher did nothing to cover up himself.Wasn't he ashamed?No. He wasn't. There was nothing in his eyes, not even the faintest glimpse of remorse.It was then tears filled my eyes. Seeing the emptiness in his absolute crushed me."Oh no." I muttered, chuckling bitterly."Please don't let me stop you. Carry on. I just came to drop this." I pointed at the box on the floor, but his cold eyes didn't leave mine. I caught Adeline flash me a mocking smile, and my heart twisted in my chest.She had never liked me, not from the second the beta, her father, adopted me. But did she have to go so far to spite me?"You weren't supposed to find out like this. We weren't going to make an announcement until my coronation." Asher spoke, rising from the bed.The casual tone of his voice confused me. He spoke as though I had not just caught him cheating on me! And "we"? What did he mean by "we"?"Can you even listen to yourself? You're saying that you were planning to announce that you were cheating on me with my sister, in front of the entire pack on your coronation tomorrow?!" I screamed at him."What? No." He chuckled. He slowly put on his boxer briefs as he smiled at me."I was planning to announce my union with my mate, Adeline."I saw red. The blood that had drained from my face quickly rushed to my eyes. I wanted to cry, wanted to tear my hair away and scream at the top of my lungs."Are you kidding me?! You said you loved me! You asked me to be your Luna just last night! And we made love after I said yes! You can't possibly be doing this to me, Asher."I couldn't believe it. I was begging him, pleading with him to reconsider even after what he had done. Was this how much I loved him? He was the only one who I had ever loved in all my eighteen years.He stood still, placing both hands on both sides of his hips before he turned to look at Adeline. The lust in his eyes sparkled so bright. He had never looked at me that way before."You said...you said you loved me." Was all I could cough out in tears."And I do, Sophia. I really do. But when I found Adeline in the garden and my wolf called out to her, I couldn't stop myself. I care about you, but Adeline is my mate. We are meant to be together."They were meant to be together?Funny how he had said the same thing to me last night."You said you didn't care about the mate bond. That it didn't matter, as long as we were together, we could face anything." I didn't know why I was still talking, but a part of me hoped that reminding him of his words would bring him back to his senses."And that was until I met my mate! Come on, Sophia. Don't you want me to be happy? We are not mates, yours is probably somewhere out there too. Find him and be happy. I found mine, and I know we would be happy. I would do anything for the one the goddess has blessed me with." As though I wasn't there, he turned to smile at her, and she smiled back.I swallowed hard. The lump of tears stuck in my throat wouldn't find their way out, no matter how hard I tried."Anything baby?" Adeline asked. Her high pitched voice scraped my ears. I had almost forgotten she was there."Yes, my love. Anything.""Very well then, I have a small request.""Speak. This kingdom is yours as well as mine.""Well," She folded her arms underneath her chest and turned to me."Now that I will be living in the palace with you, I will need someone who knows me well enough to attend to all my needs without me needing to stress about giving instructions and all that. That is where my dearest sister here, comes to play. I will really appreciate if she can be given a job here in the palace, as my personal slave...I mean, maid."I felt dizzy. The walls around me were starting to spin, and I was too confused to move, but I sure as hell wasn't going to allow Adeline make mockery of me."You heard your queen, Sophia. You must come work for her in the pack house."Asher's next words had me spinning my head towards him."You're joking! clearly you are joking!" Tears streamed down my eyes as I screamed."I will never do that! You can't make me do that! You can't choose her over me!""And why can't I?"I gasped in shock. His eyes were no longer empty. This time, they held contempt."She is the beta's daughter, my mate, and a strong wolf. But you? You are nothing but an orphaned omega, even lucky to be brought into royalty..." He stopped speaking. I could see hurt flash in his eyes, almost as if it broke him to speak to me in that tone. In that split second, I saw him again - the Asher Morris I had fallen head over heels in love with - but he didn't give me a chance to speak before he dissolved into the monster standing in front of me again."Do not test me, Sophia. Or my first task as alpha king would be to banish you from this pack."He meant it, every word of it.I lowered my head to the ground as I sniffed in my tears."Yes, alpha." I muttered underneath my breath.This has been an emotional roller coaster for me. This story began in January, and since then, a lot of things have happened. I’ve been sick, I’ve had countless visits to the hospital, gotten an operation, entered final year in medical school, a lot of things actually. And finally, after nine months, I get to say goodbye to the beautiful Morris family, and everyone involved in their story. It wasn’t easy, but you all stood by me. I hope you enjoyed this story as much I almost enjoyed writing it. And I hope to see you again in my next project coming in OCTOBER, and my debut billionaire romance novel. Thank you all. Xoxo, Bella Hemsworth.
SEVEN MONTHS LATER AUTHOR The sound of the door closing had everyone up on their feet. Daniel, Darwin, Lillie who had been fidgeting on her seat, Queen Sophia, even little Emilia. The doctor blinked twice, fairly surprised by how fast they had all stood. All the set of eyes that peered at her caused her to clear her throat. She couldn’t blame them for being anxious. Princess Darla had been in the labor room for over eight hours. “How’s everything? How’s she? How’s…?” Lillie moved to the front, and the doctor smiled at her. “Everything is fine, your highness. Princess Darla has just delivered two beautiful and handsome children.” Silence hung in the air for three brief seconds. Yes. The doctor had counted. “Does this mean…?” Lillie asked with wide eyes. “Yes.” The tall lady replied. “Twins.” “Oh my God!” Lillie screamed, tears in her eyes as she watched everyone else rush into the room. They were supposed to have gone in one by one, but even the doctor knew better than to tr
Lillie’s POV *THREE WEEKS LATER* I stood outside Darla’s room, taking a deep breath before knocking softly. No response, but I knew she was in there. I could hear her crying from where I stood. Even her large twin doors had done nothing to mask the sound of her sorry. I turned mine into a ball in my throat and swallowed hard to push it down to my stomach. It couldn’t come out, not today. I reached for her door knob, opened the door and found her sitting on the edge of her bed, her face pale, her eyes swollen from crying. The black dress Darwin had gotten for her lay untouched in a rumpled mess beside her."Darla, you need to get ready," I said gently, stepping inside. "It’s time."She shook her head, her hands trembling as they gripped the sheets. "I can’t," she whispered. "If I get dressed… if I go downstairs… it means he’s really gone. That Logan is really gone, and I’ll never see him again. The love of my life, Lillie… the father of my child." Her voice cracked, her should
David’s POV Blood. All over the room. Dripping from every wound in my body. I didn’t need to see my reflection in the mirror to know I had been beaten up real good. Yet, when I saw it, a bitter chuckle forced its way out of my throat. I had managed to kill them all even in my state. The fuckers must have known they wouldn’t be able to stand a chance, hence why they had to poison me. In those last minutes of my life, the faces of my brothers flashed in my mind as I sat on my bed. My brothers, my sisters, my darling mother who had seen so much loss in her time. I never thought I’d see them again. I thought that, by the time they reached the hospital, I’d be long gone. When the rogues came, I was sure it was over. They had knives, weapons—I barely had the strength to lift my arms, but something inside me, something primal, wouldn’t let me give up. Not yet. Not before seeing my family one last time. If they could get to me, that is. There was no guarantee they had been able to make it
Darwin’s POV Heavy is the head that wears the crown, but there wasn’t a crown on my head. However, I knew I had stepped into David’s shoes the moment he was hospitalized. It suddenly made sense why he had been so stoic and protective of everyone. For the first time in a long time, I could feel what he felt. The weight of the world resting on my shoulders. My world, and that of Dark Moon at large. Even as I ripped Jace’s head from his neck, the reality of what had just happened sank deeper as I looked at him—the cousin who once laughed with us as children, now reduced to this: A lifeless head in my hands. Who would have thought I would be the one to end his life? Who would have thought that he’ll be the one to turn our lives around? To hurt my brothers, to betray the only family he could call his? His eyes, once filled with arrogance and ambition, were now vacant, staring up at the sky even in his death. But now, he would be unable to see any fucking thing. His life had ended.
Darwin: The battle was far more brutal than expected. Dead bodies lay across the ground, a mix of our own people, rogues and rebel soldiers. Daniel and I were yet to turn as we were preserving our energy to fight our common enemy. A wolf lunged at me and I caught it by its collar and snapped its next in one move. It dropped to the ground, slowly shifting back to its human form as it took its last breath. Another one came and I sank my claws into it, twisting and tearing its guts out so it lay on the floor in a disgusting pile. I only one had one intention as I made my way towards the Palace. And that was to make sure Lillie and my family members were safe. After I'd confirmed that they were, I would return here and find Jace. The hall was empty. Void of anyone, so I knew they had all been carted away to safety to the Palace's secret basement. I heard a familar sob and hurried towards the corner leading to the underground building. Lillie was crouched beside Logan w
Lillie's POV: Tonight was a wedding and the whole Palace was bright with the hustle and bustle of activities. A decorating team had been employed to decorate the area and it had gone on for about two days. Tonight, they were finishing up the rest of the decorations as guests began to arrive. I heard the Queen's voice from where I stood in Darla's room. She was yelling at the decorating team for their slow pace and we all laughed when she asked one of the ladies to get out of her sight. "It's not mother's wedding and yet, she yells like it's hers." Emilia said from where she stood, our beautiful flower girl, getting dressed by some of the maids. Darla chuckled from where she sat in front of her vanity table. "Mother can be a control freak at times. Don't tell her I said this, or she's going to serve my body to the guests." Emilia grinned in mischief and I instantly knew she was going to use emotional blackmail now that she had power over Darla. "Wh
Lillie's POV: Things were going smoothly. More than I expected. I banished the thoughts of something ruining the good time everyone was having and decided to, for once in my life, be happy that things were going the way I wanted. Queen Sofia was forced to interceed on Logan's behalf and the embargo of being a slave was taken off him. Darla made it a point of duty to remind her every waking moment of the day until the Queen decided to have rites held on Logan's behalf. And now, they were seen always having little cute moments around the palace. Logan and Darla were always found in each other's arm and I always saw the look on the Queen's face. Even after taking the banishment off Logan's head, she still wasn't in approval of their relationship. But as time went on, she became busy with other things and paid them no heed until I found her one day, smiling at Darla and Logan as they sat at the porch. Darla had her head on Logan's lap as he read her a book. It was such a
Lillie's POV: I paced from one end of the room to the other, trying to come up with words to say to my brother. Logan stood, head bowed low, at the other end of the room. I could tell he was feeling extremely bad, but not guilty. He finally stood tall, steeling his expression as he stared right at me. "What are you going to do? Judge me for following my heart? Call that a mistake also?" I honestly had nothing to say to him if I was being honest. I was just surprised that Logan and Darla were ever a thing. I wasn't angry or judgemental. I just didn't like how it had been hidden from me. Did Logan not trust me? Or hadn't I been a good enough elder sister for him to talk to? These were the thoughts that plagued my mind. I turned to him and sighed. "When did you start Dating Darla?" "We're not... dating," He replied. "Though we really like each other a lot." "So when did all these start?" He scoffed. "Do I have to tell you all the details?" "Yes. I have to know."
