Luna Alice's face hardened. Her hands gripping the arm of the chair. Her chest rising and falling in fast pace. " How dare she" Luna Alice said in between gritted tooth. Graco placed his hand upon her hand and gave it a gentle squeeze. Athonio and Clarissa stood before Lucas who was toying with a lollipop in his mouth. Eating lollipop was a new habit he developed after Ariel dissapeared. His heart thumped in his chest but he tried his best to remain calm. He bite on the lollipop and raised his head up to look at Athonio in the eyes. The lollipop dangled in his mouth sexily and Clarissa bite on her lower lips. " Never knew you found your mate already" Lucas said more like a mocking and Athonio smiled at him. He tightened his grip around Clarissa's hand and placed a warm kiss on her forehead. " At least she won't run away or disappear" Athonio mocked and Lucas jaw clenched together. He unwrapped another lollipop and placed it in his mouth. " Let the beta's mating ceremony begin" Lu
Ariel POV I woke up to a shimmering headache in a huge bed dressed with white bedsheets. This room looks strange. The interior of my room is not like like this neither is Ethan's room. I turned around to observe the room when I find a note on the table by the bed side."I must commend you, you're so sweet in bed. There's an envelope on the table your payment is inside" What! The note fell from my hand and I close my eyes trying to remember what happened last night but I can't remember anything. I notice I was Stak naked when I get down from the bed. I don't really know what happened but did I just sleep with a man in the hotel?I grab the purple gown lying on the floor lazily and slip into it. I ran my hand through my black hair and my emeralds eyes glitter with tears. I search for my cell phone and found it on the floor with hundreds of missed calls from Ethan and series of text messages.' my goodness, how am I going to explain this to Ethan. We were suppose to spend the night
Ethan's POV.I drove out of the mansion and down into the woods. I turned into my wolf form and speed through the woods to an unknown destination. My wolf Artemis keep yelling in my head to calm down but I'm not having any of it. How can she do that to me? I trust Ariel with all of me, I can't believe she will leave me for someone with a huge cock.'calm down bruh, don't hit my head on the tree' Artemis warned and I kept brushing through the woods.I was expecting her to tell me she was coming from somewhere else but she prove it to me that she was actually the woman in those photos. Women are demons, they can't be trusted, they're are so expensive, deceitful and untrainable.'Ethan ' Artemis yelled and I came to a halt on a huge rock close to a waterfall and let out a loud cry.We were expected to spend the night together at the pack celebrating Eva's tenth birthday but while I was waiting anxiously for her she was in an hotel room making out with a man who has a huge cock.I was wi
Lucas Point of viewAfter dissolving the meeting. I went back to my room and met my mother on the way. She followed me into the room and stood beside the window. What else is she here to do other than asking me if I have find a mate yet. I lye down on the bed lazily and close my eyes not minding her presence."Have you find a mate?" She asked and I snap my eyes open. That is the only question she knows how to ask. She don't know how to ask any other question than this question of finding a mate yet. "No " I reply calmly and Uzo jump into my head.Uzo is my wolf. He's supportive and annoying at the same time.' what about the girl at the hotel last night, isn't she your mate?' he asked and I push him away from my head. Yes that girl I had one night stand with is my mate but there's something strange about that girl that I can't comprehend. So I don't think it's a good idea to tell my mother about it yet. She looks drunk last night and she's not in her right senses. I smelled alcohol
Ariel POVIt's been a month and a week now and I have not seen my normal menstrual flow. Ethan has managed to forgive me and we are back together but not intimately like before. He don't touch me , just some minor kiss and going out for dinner. He hardly smile around me and I've been noticing Liz presence in his house lately. Anyway that's non of my concern for now. I just have to get rid of this dizziness and prepare something to eat. I went into the kitchen and prepare some light food which I manage to take only three bites. Why do I feel so weak, it's seems I'm going to faint any moment from now.Well, I'm a medical doctor but I don't work for any hospital or organization but I have all medical equipment In my house. I don't remember having any bacterias in my body. I think I should run a pregnancy test on myself. How am I even sure of that, it's been long I had intercourse so I don't think it's pregnancy even if my breasts are tender but as a medical practitioner I don't have
' she's carrying an alpha blood in her womb?' I ask myself in disbelief as I close my eyes.'Ethan is an Omega, so she should be carrying an Omega in her womb or did she mate with another wolf?' I thought deeply and I got up to grab a glass of water from the kitchen. She woke up immediately I entered the room after fifteen minutes.Ariel's POVI woke up to the day of sun shining on face through the window. I turned around and met the dark eyes of Irene standing with a glass of hot milk in her hand."Have this" she said handling the milk to me and I accept it with gratitude." Thank you" I whisper and took a sip of the milk.She walked towards the window and stare at the sun."Do you know you're pregnant?" She asked without turning to face me and I nodded by saying" yes" "Don't tell my mother about it please" I pleaded with wavering eyes.I don't want my mom to know about my pregnancy especially now that I'm in a complicated situation."Why?" She asked with her hands fold behind her b
Lucas POVThe first full moon has passed and I haven't found that girl at the hotel yet. I went to the hotel but no one seems to recognize anybody like that. But that was before the first full moon." Hi Miss," I called the staff in a white shirt." How may I help you sir?"she asked politely." I'm looking for a lady" I replied" A lady?" She asked and I nodded" Does she works here and what's her name ?" The lady ask and I become quite. " She doesn't have a name" I said and the lady furrow her brows in confusion." I mean I don't know her name. She has dark long hair and emerald eyes. Her skin is fair and spotless" I gave her the description of my mate and she nodded her head Negatively." I'm sorry sir, I don't know any lady like that. You can ask around" she said and walk away. No one seems to recognize that girl or maybe she doesn't works there or she just got there to drink that night but I have to go there again maybe I will find her this time around. I slept with her but I di
Lucas POV.I bent down to pick her face cap for her when my eyes suddenly met her eyes. Gosh she has beautiful emerald hair. 'She's the one! she's the girl at the hotel that night. ' Uzo scream in my head and a smile crept into my face. I finally find her."It's you I said handling putting her face cap back on her head and she immediately shove a portrait of a red haired guy with icy blue eyes at my face." Do you know him?" She asked and I shove the portrait away." You need to follow me" I said dragging her hand and she free herself from my grip."Why should I follow you?" She asked angrily and I put my hands on my waist. She seems to be very upset. She's looking for the man in that portrait. Why would she look for him when I'm here.' I told you to mark her that night but you wouldn't listen. Now she's looking for a red haired man ' Uzo said disappointedly in my head and I felt a ting in my chest."Are you looking for that man in the portrait?" I asked softly to get her attention.

The pack throne hall was filled to the brim. Whispers and gossips can be heard from every angle as everyone waits for the mating ceremony to begin." I heard the Alpha's mate ran away. Do you think he would mate with another woman tonight?" A lady asked her friend who was sitting next to her." I bet he would mate with another woman tonight. Who would want to loose something so important as the throne because of a woman" The other lady replied and the first lady nod in agreement. " You have a point but I wonder why someone will leave a handsome man like the alpha or could it be he doesn't know how to dig?" The first lady asked and the other lady's eyes popped out of their sockets curiously." Dig what?" She asked." Dig the hole. The hole you and I have" the first lady replied and the other lady's face flushed with embarrassment." Does it really matter? His eyes alone can make me cum " " Shh the ceremony is about to commence. " The first lady hushed her friend before she continue wi
" you jump in" irene replied and freaked out. she wrapped her arms around herself and sat on a stone next to irene. " good job irene" ariel said like a teacher who's commending her student. " for what?" irene asked innocently. she really don't know why ariel was commending her. " for wanting me dead" ariel replied and irene jaw dropped. " Okay joke apart. Come wash up. We have alot to talk about" Irene said and lead Ariel to the lake." Before entering the lake, you need to get rid of the flowers. Didn't your teacher teach you to get rid of the obstacles first? " Irene sneered. She clamped her hands together, her forefingers tips touching each other. Ariel watched her as she perform the spell. The flowers withered away and Irene opened her eyes.Ariel just cock her head to one side . She wore a straight look on her face." I'm not surprised" Ariel snapped at Irene and stepped over the withered flowers. They felt soft and smooth other her legs." Aren't you going to ask me if the wate
~~third realm~~ Darkness covered the room, a woman can be heard mumuring incoherent words. Sweat dripping off her face on the mini bed she laid on. Her hands gripped the sheets and her dark hair laid splattered on the pillow." Don't leave me" the words left her mouth. Tears streaming down her face.She snapped her eyes opened and quickly sat up on the bed. She lit the candle by her bedside with shaking hands and a scream left her mouth when a little mouse ran over her legs.She walked to corner of the room and poured herself a cup of water from the jar. She gulped the water down and wiped her mouth with the back of her hands before going back to sit on the bed.For the first time, the door to the dungeon quacked and got opened. Her eyes darted towards the door with Sparks of light in them. Finally someone came." Irene?" Ariel called with excitement in her voice but was quickly replaced with coldness and disgust." What are you doing here?" Ariel asked coldly. The event of what happe
A month has gone by since Ariel went missing from the pack. Lucas has tried all he could to find her. The mating ceremony is in two days time and the royal family are restless. Especially Graco who's afraid Lucas might let the the leadership of the pack go to his beta." Are you sure you don't want to do this?" Graco asked with his hand gripping the seat arm. Judging from his tone, one could tell that Lucas has been pissing him off with his decisions lately." I'm sure father. Ariel is my mate and I can't replace her with Clarissa" Lucas replied and the alpha shook his head in annoyance." We're not saying you should replace her with Clarissa." His mother chirped in and placed her hand on his shoulder gently." What are you insinuating then?" Lucas asked and Luna Alice sighed. She clamped her hands together and strode to where her husband is seated." What we are saying is that, during the mating ceremony, you will present Clarissa as your mate but we won't reveal her face. You know i
The chanting continues, all eyes were on Dino and Ariel. Apart from this being a welcoming ritual, this ritual is also a marriage rite for those that understand the meaning.Dino was beyond excited because he had waited all his life for this day to come. A day he could finally washed the foot of his betrothed, a day they will be bond together as one. He bent his head forward and placed his lips on Ariel's ankle. Her stomach twisted in disgust from his gesture. She tried to retract her leg from his grip but it was fruitless. He was stronger than her and her foots were at his Mercy." Leg so white as Jade" he mumbled and planted another kiss on it before massaging her toe. His massaging skills were so good that Ariel almost forget that she's in the middle of a ritual and not a spa.She wanted to yell and cuss him but remembered the rules forbids her from talking. She could only vent her anger in her heart and with her piercing glare.' Dino! I swear I will kill you if you do that again
Trigger warning!!!This chapter contains violence and other traumatizing contents.Irene quickly put the pill in a glass of water and gave it to Ariel to drink." Trust me Ariel. It's not harmful" Irene said with puppy eyes when she saw the look on Ariel's face. She took the cup from Irene and gulped the content down. Her face turned horrible when the taste of the pill hits her tongue.She looked below and saw young girls being dragged by the women. Their hands were tied behind their backs. Wailing and screaming escaped from their lungs as they were lead away like cattles taken to the slaughter." This is how it's done. Those without power don't deserve to live" Serena said beside Ariel and she just give her the cold shoulder. she thought her mother was a good person but she never expected her to be so heartless and cold blooded." With time, you will understand everything I'm doing when you become the queen"" To hell with being the queen" Ariel spat with venom in her voice . The ma
She closed her eyes and took in his masculine scents. Only the heavens knows how much she has waited for a time like this to come. A time when she can hug Lucas and take in all his scents." You smell of alcohol" she drawl." Is there something on your mind?" Clarissa asked again and Lucas released her grip from his waist.He took few steps forward and dipped his hands in his pant pockets." What do you want Clarissa? Why are you here?" Lucas asked . No one knows what was going on in his mind. How back was straight and voice distant."Like I said earlier, I brought you snacks" Clarissa replied meekly." Aren't you suppose to be leading the hunting team tonight? " Lucas asked again with a hint of annoyance in his voice. On a normal day, he wouldn't sound cold and distance to Clarissa because he believes women shouldn't be treated coldly but right now, everything annoys him . Even the slightest provocation." I got some bruises from the woods yesterday so I'm resting"" Did see Ariel in
A knock from the door brought Ariel and Gracie back to their senses. Ariel found herself in the bathtub and looked around in a daze. " Messing with my dreams and reality again " She mumbled and within twenty minutes they were out of the bathroom. The other maids helped her dress up in a forest green dress that fell down to her toes. Her hair was braided sideways thereby revealing her flawless back. Black rings adorned her fingers and her lips were painted black. No make up, just a mascara and black lip shade. " These are the things you should not do when you go out there" Gracie took a book from the maid and flipped through it. " You must not take any drink apart from the one specially prepared for you" " You must not leave Dino side" " You must not Argue back during the Introduction" " You must not ask random question" " Is that all?" Ariel asked " For now" Gracie replied. " Dumb rules" Ariel scoffed and walked out of the room with the maids. ~~~~Escavor Pack~~~~ " Did you find her?"
