Derek"Stay away from my momma!" I looked down to see the two human barriers standing before me. "Melody, please listen to me." "Stay away!" Giovanni stormed forward. "You can't attack him, Gio. Honey, he's your father." My mother stepped forward to hold him."He is not my father!" He roared. "I don't want him!""Don't say that, Honey. He's your father regardless of whatever he must have done in the past." Mother rubbed his hair to calm him down. "I do not want a father like him!" He shouted, his claws long and his blue eyes twinkling like a diamond. His fury sent a cold wave through the air. Making me feel cold. I can't believe that he wields such power. However, the matter at hand needs to be settled before I can figure out more about my pups and how special they are. "Melody, I didn't mean to do that." I went further to explain but she wasn't listening. "Do not say her name!" Gio screamed, his voice sending thundering waves through the room."Do not speak to her!" Aaron a
Melody Can life get any worse for me?Why is life so determined to see me fall and shattered? Why? Why Derek?My life was a mess from the very first day I stepped into this world. Be it as a child, teenager, or an adult. All I got from life is pain and agony. The goddess created me as the messiest mess on earth. When she gave beauty to others, she gave me less. When she gave both parents to other kids, she gave me one less. When she gave wolves to everyone, she gave me none. When she gave Mates to every Wolf, she gave me one that rejected me and When she gave love, she gave me none, until I met Dorian. I thought it was getting better. That I was getting what I deserved even though a little part of me still feels connected to the jerk who hurt me. I thought I could finally live the life I deserve as I stepped into the throne room. Seeing Dorian gave me peace as I tried to shake off the itchiness from Derek's bite. I know that I can survive the marking as long as I have Dorian wi
DerekNo. I can't let Melody leave. I won't let her leave. She belongs only to me. She bears my mark. She should only stay by my side. I will not let her be taken away from me.I tried to stop Dorian from taking her away as she requested, but I was attacked by my own kids. I can't believe that my sons will attack me just to keep me away from their mother. I know that that would go to any length to keep her safe, but I never imagined that they'd go as far as attacking me. I thought they would honor me as the king, but I was mistaken. The love they have for their mother overrides every other feeling in their heart. They put Melody first before anything else. Even after they discovered that I am their father, it changed nothing. In fact, it fueled their rage. Their hatred towards me heightened. I know that I have hurt Melody in so many ways for so many years, but seeing my sons standing against me like I was their enemy, shattered my heart. They were high on alert and their moves
Melody"Do not threaten me, otherwise...."Dorian never liked to be threatened. All he wanted was to leave, but Derek was making it difficult. I wonder why he won't just let me go. He hated the sight of me before. But now he's hell bent on having me, why?What changed? He used to despise me, but now he wants me? Why do I find that unbelievable? Could it be because he figured out that he's the father of my pups? The fact that I have two kids with Derek still seems surreal to me. I still can't believe it. Why did it have to be him? Why did it have to be Derek? I wish things didn't turn out this way, but I guess it's the will of the goddess. Because even though I hate Derek so much, I love my pups too much. I want them nowhere close to Derek. I just want my life back. I want to go back. Even after all that's happened, Derek is still so full of himself. He thinks he will get me to forgive him just by asking me to marry him. I mean, what does the guy think of himself? How in g
Melody "Are you okay, Mel?" Dorian set me on the bed as we arrived in my chamber. "I'm fine," I lied. I was far from fine. There is a constant knot in my belly which comes with a strange pain. I purse my lips to stop myself from screaming everytime it hits. "Are you sure?" Gio was holding my hand immediately. My distress never goes unnoticed by him. "You don't look fine. What's up with your belly?" "I don't know. I....." I paused as the pain suddenly hit me once again, leaving me breathless. "Melody!" Dorian grabbed me and placed my head on his lap. "Dorian, I can't.... I can't breathe." I was panting. My hands and legs trembled and I could feel anger building up in me. "Look at me, Mel, you're going to be fine." His voice sounded from a distance even though he was so close to me. There was a strange voice in my head. "Go away," I gritted my teeth to keep my anger at Bay. Dorian has done nothing to annoy me. Why am I mad at him? "Mel," he called unbelievably,
Derek "I never agreed to stay away from Melody. I never will." I shrugged as I moved to go closer to my mate. Sophia stood like a soldier fending off the bad guy. She was ready to stop me from going to Melody. As if she could. "Step aside, Sophia," I waved her aside. She stood still in Melody's defense and I noticed that Malfoy was also ready to put up a fight. Did they probably forget that I'm the Alpha king? "Stay away from Melody," Sophia hissed. "Why won't you just understand that?" "Stay away from her?" I scoffed. Like, is she serious? "She's my mate," I reminded her. "And she bears my mark." How could they ask me to stay away from Melody? She's my woman. My mate. The mother of my pups. She bears my mark and resides in my heart. She's the woman I spent years searching for. How could they ask me to stay away from her after finally finding her? How is that possible? "One given forcibly," Sophia stated. My anger rose at her words and I growled. How is it
Derek He marked her. Dorian marked Melody. He fucking marked my mate! How dare he! Dorian's got some fucking nerve. "Now you're mine." I watched as he happily sealed the mark with a sloppy lick to her neck. She's his? Did he just say she's his? Melody can't belong to anyone else. She's mine alone. She's the mate bestowed upon me by the moon goddess. Even though she just broke our bond. I still feel connected to her. I always will. I think Dorian is delusional. He's probably forgotten that mate bond aside, I'm still connected to Melody through our pups. I'm the father of her kids and there's no way I can be swept out of their lives. "What is going on?" Standing behind me was my father. He looked like he would spit fire at me. "Well, brother here thinks he could do whatever pleases him just because he's king," Sophia was the first to tell on me. What does she mean to do as I please? If I wanted to do as I please, I could have thrown this bloody Dorian to my lak
Derek What does she mean by going home? Isn't here her home? She was born and spent her whole life here. This is where she should refer to as home, not that strange place. How can she claim that foreign land as her home? "Melody, the kids. They are princes of Mallory, they should stay here." Father's words pleased me for the first time. "No!" Both kids chorused. Father looked away sadly, but mother wasn't ready to give up. She wanted to speak to them. Probably convinced them to stay back, but their hatred for me was too strong. They would never stay in the same room as me. That's how much they despise me. "Gio, baby. Mallory kingdom is nice and beautiful. You're going to love it here." "There's nothing beautiful here," he replied immediately. "Oh, that's because you haven't taken a proper tour around the Palace and the Kingdom." "I still won't stay back," he replied firmly this time. "You're going to love it here, dear, trust me," Mother cupped their cheeks with on
