Royal's POV He sighed deeply, his hand running through his tousled hair. "Remember when we first met? Did I give any rules?" I blinked a few times as I tried to recollect but there was none. "No Alpha. Do we never set any rules? What did I do wrong?" I asked, my voice lower than before."What are the things you shouldn't do to your Alpha?” he asked and I looked at him bewildered, not understanding what he meant."Well," I started, choosing my words carefully before proceeding, "Well, Alpha, I believe it's important to establish a foundation of respect, trust, and open communication in any relationship, especially in a dynamic like ours. We should always prioritize consent and ensure that both parties are comfortable with the boundaries set. I've always strived to adhere to these principles with you," I explained, my voice sincere.He nodded, his expression softening slightly. "You're right, but you still haven't answered me. I asked you for the things you shouldn't do to your Alpha.
Royal's POV I took a shaky breath as he pulled out of the kiss and the touch sent shivers down my spine. Looking into his intense eyes, I replied in a low, sultry voice, "I didn't do anything, Alpha. I didn't mean to ignite a fire within you that burns as fiercely as it does within me."His grip tightened ever so slightly, and a predatory smile played upon his lips, "Mmm, Is that so, Royal?" he murmured, pulling me close to him, his voice husky with desire. "Well, little halfling, you have succeeded beyond measure."My heart raced in my chest as his words sank in. I had never expected my bold actions to have such an effect on him, and a surge of anticipation coursed through my veins. "What now, Alpha?" I asked, my voice barely a whisper.His grip on my neck loosened, but his hand slid down resting possessively on my hip. He leaned closer, his breath hot against my ear, and I could feel his warm lips brushing against my skin as he spoke. "Now, little halfling, we explore the depths of
Royal's POV "Hello?" I asked once again and the person who called me finally answered. "My apologies Miss Royal. The phone is yours and I thought the Alpha told you already. It's Beta Simon speaking by the way," the voice calmly said and I sighed in relief even though I didn't know why he called. I was just grateful it wasn't Ryan. "Hello?” "Sorry," I apologized as I felt a wave of surprise wash over me as I realized the voice belonged to Beta Simon, one of the Alpha's most trusted advisors. "Beta Simon? The phone is mine?" I repeated, my mind struggling to process this new information. "Yes, Miss Royal," Beta Simon confirmed. "The Alpha requested that a phone be provided to you so that you can be reached in case of emergencies or important matters concerning the pack." I was taken aback by the Alpha's consideration. He had thought of me, even in the midst of his responsibilities. It was a small gesture, but it meant more to me than I could express. "I... I see," I stammered, t
Royal's POV As if on cue the Alpha's phone call came in and Beta Simon answered before excusing himself for a few minutes. What was this urgent matter that required Beta Simon's immediate attention? What did it mean for me and my place within the pack? The unanswered questions swirled in my mind, and as I sat there in the empty dining hall, a sense of foreboding settled upon me. I knew that whatever lay ahead would be a turning point, a pivotal moment that could change everything. And so, I was left alone, my thoughts racing and my heart pounding, awaiting the resolution of the unknown and the unfolding of the path that lay before me. Minutes felt like an eternity as I sat there, my mind filled with anticipation and uncertainty. Finally, Beta Simon returned, a faint look of concern etched upon his face. He took his seat once again, his demeanor slightly altered. "Apologies for the interruption," Beta Simon said, his voice tinged with a touch of urgency. "There's been a development
Royal's POVThe weight of Beta Simon's words hung heavy in the air, pressing down on me like a suffocating blanket. The truth, brutal and unforgiving, had been laid bare before me, and I was left to grapple with the ramifications of my choices.The mention of my family and coven sent a fresh wave of grief crashing over me. The pain of their loss still felt raw, their absence a constant ache in my heart. Tears welled up in my eyes, blurring my vision, but I fought against them. I couldn't allow myself to be consumed by sorrow, not when there were still unanswered questions and a dangerous path stretching out before me."Thank you, Beta Simon," I finally managed to say, my voice shaky but determined. "I appreciate your offer to help me leave, but I cannot."Beta Simon's eyes bore into mine, searching for any trace of doubt or hesitation. Finding none, he nodded solemnly. "Very well," he said, his voice laced with respect. "But know that this will not be an easy path. The Alpha is cunn
Royal's POV My heart pounded in my chest as a surge of fear gripped me. The Alpha's words echoed in my mind, each syllable carrying a sinister weight. I couldn't ignore the possibility that he might indeed be referring to me, that my decision to help Ryan after he kidnapped me had sealed my fate. The realization hit me like a tidal wave, leaving me gasping for breath.Tears welled up in my eyes as a myriad of emotions washed over me. Betrayal, fear, anger, and regret swirled together, creating a tempest within my soul.How could I have been so foolish? I had thought I was strong enough to face the consequences of my actions, but now I found myself at the mercy of a ruthless Alpha that I thought cared about me.With trembling hands, I clutched at the locket around my neck, I thought of it as a talisman of protection passed down through generations of witches even though it wasn't. Its surface felt cool against my skin, providing a sliver of comfort in this moment of uncertainty. I ha
Royal's POVBefore I knew it, the woman disappeared into a gust of wind and I screamed, "Ahhhh."Startled by the sudden disappearance of the woman, I turned around to face the Alpha, confusion etched across my face. His urgent tone indicated that he knew something I didn't, and I strained to make sense of his warning. Without waiting any longer, I ran into his arms, forgetting that he almost threatened my kind."What... what just happened?" I stammered, my heart pounding in my chest.The Alpha hugged me, his expression grave. "That woman, she's not to be trusted," he cautioned, his voice laced with concern. "She's a shape-shifting witch who preys on unsuspecting individuals. I've encountered her kind before. That's why we trapped her here and forbade anyone from coming here. She probably didn't hurt you because of your witch blood."My mind reeled with the revelation. The relief I had felt moments ago evaporated, replaced by a sense of vulnerability and unease. How could I have been s
Royal's POV The Alpha's gaze shifted between Feina and me, a mix of emotions swirling in his eyes. He took a deep breath, gathering his thoughts before addressing Feina's question."Feina, this is Royal," he began, his voice steady. "She's a halfling who I have taken interest in."Although his reply wasn't what I wanted, I was glad with what I heard so I decided to take my leave. "Alpha, I think it's best I leave. You should settle things with her in private, away from nosey eyes and tongues." I said not wanting them to attract many eyes since we were on the ground floor where people were crowded. "You may leave," he said with a smile and I bowed before leaving. As I almost entered the elevator I hear Feina's voice, "Stop!" I turned to face her, "Yes Miss Feina?" I said giving her the respect she deserved as the finance of our Alpha."Did I ask you to leave?" She roared and I shuddered from the authority used. Sensing my uneasiness, the Alpha roared, "Feina stop! Royal, you may l
ALPHA CHASE'S POV "I can't say, but you have a chance to take her back…" he said and I admired his honesty. After eating, we headed back to the hospital room pending the time Simon prepared a room for him in the pack house since he planned on staying. As Rico and I sat in Royal's hospital room, waiting anxiously for any news about her condition, we heard a knock at the door and we saw two women, with a baby. "Mother? Devi? Asher?" Rico called out in surprise and together with Aiden, they ran out with smiles on their faces. "Grandmother, Auntie!” Aiden beamed as he stretched to carry the little one. Curious, I walked outside too. "Alpha Chase," both women greeted in unison. "How is she?" the older lady inquired, her voice trembling with worry. "We're expecting good news," I answered, still waiting for an introduction, which Alpha Rico did. "Lady Loretta, Luna Devi, thank you for coming. The doctors are running tests to determine what's causing her condition." They asked me if
ALPHA CHASE'S POV"Really?" I chuckled. "So nice of them to do me a favor by coming to me directly! Prepare the men!" I ordered and with a nod, he left. Making sure not to disturb my mate and son, I took out a few clothes for battle and then headed out. As I stepped out of the elevator, I cracked my knuckles, a wicked smile playing on my lips. Been so long since the bloodthirsty Alpha went to battle.As I led my pack members out to confront the rogue wolves who dared to breach our territory and threaten us, I felt confident even though it was unplanned.To avoid anyone getting hurt, my warriors and I had no choice but to confront these intruders head-on before they got to the bustling area of the pack.We finally met them and as I looked at the intruders, I couldn't help but notice a familiar face among them. Feina, my ex-girlfriend, stood there, her eyes filled with anger and resentment. I banished her from our pack when I discovered the dark deeds she had committed, and it was clea
ROYAL'S POV:"If you love yourself and your son, come alone!" The second message read.Without another word, I left the room, my steps echoing through the empty hallways as I made my way to the warehouse on the abandoned Omega Road. My every heartbeat was a drumming reminder of my desperation, pushing me to reach Aiden as quickly as possible.When I reached the abandoned building, my heart pounded in my chest. The darkness and silence that surrounded it sent a shiver down my spine. But I couldn't afford to hesitate. I took a deep breath and pushed open the creaking door, my senses alert for any sign of danger.Inside, the dimly lit interior revealed a horrifying sight. There, in the middle of the warehouse, I saw my son, Aiden, bound and gagged, tears streaming down his little face. My heart clenched at the sight, and I rushed to his side, my own tears mingling with his as I untied him. "My baby,” I whispered."Mommy!" Aiden cried out, throwing his tiny arms around my neck.I held hi
ROYAL'S POVIn my frantic state, I clung to Alpha Chase, tears streaming down my face as I struggled to catch my breath. My heart was a storm of fear and anguish, and all I could think of was our precious Aiden, taken away from us by cruel and unknown hands.Alpha Chase's eyes were wide with shock and concern as he held me close. "How did this happen, Royal? Tell me everything," he pleaded, his voice filled with urgency.Taking a shaky breath, I recounted the horrifying events. "We were on our way to the Silver Lining pack. Aiden was asleep in my lap in the backseat. Suddenly, a group of masked men ambushed us. They were armed, and there was nothing we could do. They forced me out of the car and... hit me then they took Aiden with them," I choked on my words, reliving the traumatic moment.Alpha Chase's jaw clenched in anger as he processed the information. "We will find them," he vowed, his voice filled with determination to save his son "Simon, we need to act fast. Gather our best t
Alpha Chase's POVShe left. The one woman who gave me peace. The one woman who broke my curse, the mother of my child left!Watching the vehicle which carried Royal and our son Aiden away, brought immense pain to my heart.As the sound of Royal's car faded into the distance, I couldn't help but feel empty. The days I spent with Royal and Aiden were more than magical. Now, with her gone, I was left with a void that seemed impossible to fill. "I told you to tell her, didn't I?" my angry wolf scolded. "If I did, she'd have packed her things and left that instant. I didn't know last night would happen and I would be so trapped that I would spill it all…" I answered.I sighed heavily and went back to my home. To the grand doors of the six-story pack house. I clenched my jaw and pushed the heavy wooden doors open, stepping into the familiar scent of my home. My footsteps echoed through the corridor as I made my way to my office. The pack had been in turmoil since I'd been away for treatm
Royal's POVWith those words, Chase came into my room, horny and ready to devour me whole. I, on the other hand, was prepared for him no matter how much I lied to myself. I wanted him, and only him.Just like old times, his hand touched me in all the sweet and weak spots and the feeling was heavenly. He kissed me with so much desire, that I could feel myself submitting to him when he had not even started anything yet."Just fuck me already," I screamed in my subconscious but didn't dare to say it out. Why rush what I'd enjoy throughout the night? A few minutes into foreplay, I regretted my decision as I tried so hard to push him away while he ate me out. His tongue, his lips, his fingers, everything! I was so lost in the pleasure, that my moans disappeared, replaced by gasps and shudders. One command from him and more juice dripped from my insides and I lay there like a goddess being worshiped.Once he satisfied himself and turned my legs to jelly, he spread my legs, positioning his
Royal's POV As our lips locked once again, my mind raced with conflicting emotions. This was Chase, the Alpha who sent me away. He didn't believe me when I was all alone. But now, something changed between us, and I couldn't ignore the intensity of the feelings rushing through me.As we kissed, my heart battled with my rational mind. I pulled away gently, breaking the kiss, and a heavy silence hung in the air. My heart pounded in my chest, and I could see the confusion mirrored in Chase's eyes."Silver," he whispered, his voice soft and uncertain. "I... I don't know what just happened, but I can't ignore how I feel about you."My breath hitched, and I took a step back, creating some distance between us. "Chase, I can't deny that there's something between us, but we can't act on it. We've been through so much together, and I don't want to jeopardize our friendship."He sighed, running a hand through his hair in frustration. "But Royal, what if we're meant to be more than just friends?
Royal's Pov Taking a deep breath, I knelt down to be at eye level with Aiden. Before I could answer, Alpha Chase blurted out, "Yes I am your father!"The words hung in the air, and for a moment, me and Aiden both stared at Alpha Chase in utter surprise. The crackling of the fire seemed to echo the shock that just enveloped us."Chase," I said softly, her voice a mix of disbelief and confusion.Chase winked at me then turned to Aiden with eyes filled with determination, "I know I should have told you both sooner, but I wanted to make sure it was the right time. Aiden, you are my son, and I've always been watching over you from afar."Aiden's eyes widened, a whirlwind of emotions washing over him. "You're my father? But... why didn't you tell me before?"Chase knelt down next to me and placed a hand on Aiden's shoulder. "I wanted to keep you and your mother safe. There were dangerous forces that threatened us, and I thought it was best to stay away until we could ensure your safety."
Third person povThose words struck Royal like a thunderbolt. She didn't prepared herself for the possibility that Alpha Chase might not remember himself or their past together. Her heart sank, but she pushed her emotions aside and put on a reassuring smile."That's okay," she said softly, trying to keep her voice steady. "You've been through a lot. It's normal to feel disoriented. Just focus on resting and recovering."Alpha Chase nodded weakly, seemingly accepting her words without further question. He struggled to sit up, and Royal quickly moved to assist him.Since he was the only one who needed treatment, Royal decided to stay back and watch him.Although Rico and Devi were not happy with the decision to stay with Chase after everything, they understood what she wanted.As the first rays of the morning sun cascaded through the windows, Royal stepped into the cozy living room of her humble abode to meet Chase. "Good morning, Chase," she greeted with a warm smile, setting a tray o
