POV: Xander

I’ve always known that a day like this would come. This is exactly the same way Celia was killed. They could never take out a lycan warrior so easily, so they tricked us and jabbed this deadly serum into her heart, making her go limp immediately. I watched as they attacked her mercilessly, kicking and stomping on my wife, beating the crap out of her. Luckily, the serum missed my heart when they stabbed me with the syringe, and that is why I was able to break free and run away. I could have stayed back and fought them, but I was weakened by the serum and they are too many for me to take out on my own. That is why I ran as fast as I could to search for help.

After that day, I swore to get my revenge, and I promised myself that I would find a solution to that serum. It has taken the life of so many good people, it’s making the rogues feel invisible and indestructible. They make you too weak to fight, and then they kill you or drag you over to God knows where. We still don’t k

    POV: Heather“What the fuck is she doing here?What are you doing here?” Tiana yelled at Heather the moment we walked down to the basement. She couldn’t stop thinking about the poison, and how close she was to being killed tonight. Besides, I want to know why she did it, I just want to know why she would want to kill her, I mean, What did I ever do to her?They may fight and argue over some things, but that is not enough reason to kill her, is it?I know she did not do it herself, she was made to do it. And I want to know who sent her and how she communicates with them. I took Heather upstairs, trying to cuddle her to sleep, but she couldn’t fall asleep knowing that the person that tried to kill me was right in this house with us. I wanted her to fall asleep before I went downstairs to interrogate Tiana. But she wouldn’t fall asleep no matter how I tried.“I just had to see her, I want to hear her confess to the crime. I’m not sure it would make me feel any better, but at least my min

    POV: XanderIt was a few hours after Heath and I went to the room. She was still brooding, so I cuddled her to sleep, hoping to go down to the basement she fell asleep. I didn’t plan to fall asleep in her soft embrace. Holding her so close to my heart does so much to me, I felt so calm and peaceful within me. I didn’t know when I fell asleep with her in my arms. But the moment I realized myself, I got up immediately, placing her on the bed slowly before getting up to leave the room. I tiptoed out of the room so I don’t wake her up, and I shut the door quietly.I felt a cold chill on my skin the moment I stepped out of our bedroom. It felt like I was being watched right now, but when I looked around me, I couldn’t find anything or anyone. I looked up at the security cameras and I discovered that it was focused on me, as if someone was in the security room, watching me through the security cameras. It seems weird, and I don’t really believe that someone could break in here and pass thro

    POV: Unknown“You stupid whore!You couldn’t just mind your business and keep your fucking mouth shut, could you?” I asked Tiana as she sat in her cell, staring at the ceiling and smiling to herself. She tipped her head to look at me strangely, but she didn’t linger on my side as her eyes flew to Alpha Robert who stood right next to me, glaring at her.“I was informed of your discussion with Heather Snow before she was poisoned, and I have only one question for you, how did you know about it, how did you find out about my plans to kill her?Were you sent by the prince to spy on me, did you place a bug in my office to listen to all my conversations with my business partners?How did you get into my secret safe to steal the bracelet, did you give it to the Prince, does he know about my deal with the rogues?Speak to me at once, answer my damn questions!” Alpha Robert yelled at her, making her eyes go wide in surprise as she stared at him strangely, looking from him to me and then back t

  • Prince Xander's Timid Mate   The Four Royal Families

    POV: UnknownCome on, don’t think too much about it because even the Almighty Xander has no idea that I was screwing his wife. It was so annoying to see him having fun with her, treating her like a fucking queen. I’m not saying she doesn’t deserve to be treated right, all I’m saying is that it’s supposed to be me, and not him. He has no idea what has been going on in this kingdom for several centuries. All he cares about is finding true love and living happily ever after with his chosen mate.The only reason why Celia had been with him was because she wanted to get back what was stolen from her family centuries before we were born. You see, there are four families that were in line to become the next king of all wolves after the last king died without an heir. They were the Darius’s, Bane’s, Edward’s, and Conan's. The Banes were Xander's family, while the Darius’s were Celia’s family. Don’t ask me about my family, I’m not a royal, I’m just an innocent bystander that saw a very good op

    POV: HeatherI’ve not felt this scared in a very long time. I know he said I should stay in the bedroom and shut the doors, but I just couldn’t stay locked up in the room when everyone else was fighting to save our lives. If this is another rogue attack, then I want to be here, I want to fight them this time. The last time they showed their ugly faces, they had succeeded in killing my family, while I ran off like a scared little child, running to safety. Now Xander wants me to hide in the room like a fucking weakling.That’s just not right!I want to be there this time, I want to defend myself if truly the rogues are here. He can’t deny me this opportunity to avenge the death of my family, I won’t let him. I got out of bed the moment he told me the rogues had invaded this house and I put on some casual clothing that would not restrict me if I wanted to fight or defend myself. I decided to put on my sneakers too. I don’t know if I would have to go outside the house, for all I know the

    POV: Heather“This is crazy!This is insane!Alexis is lying, I’m fucking sure of that. I’ve fought alongside him, I know what he is capable of. There is no way he would be overpowered by a fucking rogue. He is lying, I kid you not. He wants me to believe that he had been hiding behind a couch while our enemies jumped out of the fucking windows?Who lies like that?He didn’t even think about his cover story properly, he just opened his fucking mouth to say this rubbish to me, trying to make me look stupid. Now I can never trust him, or his sister…Hell, I can't even trust Leon and Marvy too. There is a fucking mole amongst us, Butterfly. And if I don’t find out who he is, it means I can’t trust anyone of them with information about you and I. They can’t know about my plans or even join me in making any plans whatsoever. I’m so fucking confused, Heath. It seems it’s us against the whole world, Cupcake. We can’t trust anyone else, we can only trust each other.” Xander let out in frustra

    POV: Heather“Heather,” he called out to her, calling me by my name which is a bit unusual for him. I guess I’ve been too quiet and he is not cool with it. I looked up at him and saw him staring at me strangely, making me even more guilty. In his eyes, I saw innocence and genuine love. He is just so real, so innocent. Why would anyone want to hurt him, what has he ever done to them?“You are not saying anything to me, butterfly. Is anything wrong?” He asked me, coming to sit beside me.“What?No… of course not. There is absolutely nothing wrong with me. I just can’t believe that the rogues would dare to break into this building. How could they be so bold?” I responded immediately, feigning anger and trying to keep a straight face. He looked at me strangely, tipping his head to the side as if he was studying me or trying to figure out something.“That’s not what I said last, Heath, I was asking you about Alexia and her brother. I just asked you if you noticed or suspected anything abou

If there is something bothering you, why don’t you just let it out so we can sort it out together. I’m already stressed out, I can’t have you breaking down at this point. You are the reason I’m still standing strong, you are my source of strength at this point in my life. I can’t trust anyone around me, but I know I can trust and depend on you. Why don’t you take a break with me, come on, let’s sit for a while.” I coaxed her, begging and hoping that she would listen to me. She shifted into her beast the moment we left the house, not minding if anyone discovered her wolf or not. She just kept running deeper into the woods, stressing her wolf and mine for no reason at all.If I didn’t know better, I would think that she is being chased by something or someone. I couldn’t keep up with her speed, and it wasn’t f

  • Prince Xander's Timid Mate   Epilogue

    POV: Heather“I’ll be your sister, Alexis. I’ll love you like Alexia did and I will always look out for you, just like she did. I have no family and neither do you, so we can both look out for each other and protect each other.” I told him, smiling up at him hoping he would accept my offer. Taking care of her brother and always looking out for him is the only way I can honor her memory and prove to her that she is still my best friend, even in death. Doing this would ease my conscience and make me forgive myself a little for all the terrible things I’ve done.“That would be perfect, Heath. I’ll be a good big brother, I promise.” He responded excitedly, pulling me in for a hug. I sobbed in his arms and I felt my heart getting lighter as I unburdened the load weighing on my chest. After a few minutes in his arms, he helped me wipe off my tears like Richard used to do for me when we were kids. I smiled at the gesture, loving him like a brother already.“And lest I forget, my first duty a

    POV: Heather“Please, Xan, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to defy your orders, I just wanted to help my mom, I thought she had changed. I honestly thought she would realize that I love her and accept me as her family. I wanted her to be the mom I used to know, I wanted the Marie who stood by me and protected me from bullies in the pack house. I never knew she hated me that much, I never thought she would try to kill me.” I sobbed, trying to get him to at least look at my face. But he wouldn’t spare me a glance because he is still pissed off at me.He was so scared when he heard the gunshot, and felt the pain in his heart. He thought he’d lost me and that really scared him. The truth is, if he had come in one minute later, I’m not sure I would have survived it. I had already passed out when they arrived, and Alexia was lying in a pool of blood, unable to help me because Leon shot her right after he shot me. This time he did not use the poison that was used before because I just administered

  • Prince Xander's Timid Mate   She Was Shot

    POV: XanderI started suspecting Leon after Lewis was killed by the rogues. Of all my friends, he is the only one who has not done anything suspicious since all this started. He is always quick to support me and as far as I’m concerned, he has been loyal to me from the beginning. He is my beta, and yes, I expect him to be loyal, but not this loyal. Not to the point where he never questions my decision or even challenges my wrong choices. He just lets me do whatever I please, whether good or bad, he just doesn’t care.When I first accused Alexis of being a traitor, he did everything he could to convince me that he was not working with my enemies. He was so agitated and he wouldn’t stop trying to prove his innocence to me, not even when I was branded a trait by my own father. Alexis stayed close by and he offered to help me find the trait if I would let him. He claimed he was framed by someone in this house and he wanted to find out who had tried to frame him.I didn’t really trust him

  • Prince Xander's Timid Mate   The Royal Proclamation

    POV: XanderHe felt it the moment it happened, he felt his sister's pain the moment she was shot and he screamed in pain, holding his heart as if he were the victim. We were in my dad's office, going through the videos one after the other and compiling the names of the different parts that betrayed the kingdom. At first, Dad didn’t want to believe it, he nearly kicked me out of his office and he called me a bloody liar and a traitor. We argued, and fought, and then argued some more before he finally agreed to see the evidence that I claim to have against his precious lycan royals that he considers family.It took a few minutes to sort out the videos because they were all jumbled up on my system. While I sorted out the videos, Dad called a few lycans from each family to his office, and he called in the committee he had put together to judge Heather and I. He wanted them to see that he was not a part of this baseless accusation, and he wanted them to get more points to use against me in

    POV: Heather“What the hell are you doing?” I asked her furiously, jerking her so hard to get her to snap out of it. Her eyes came back to normal and she glared furiously at me, turning with her lycan speed to threaten me with her look.“Are you fucking insane, Heather?Do you have a death wish?Can’t you smell the danger lurking in the dark, can’t you see that we are not supposed to be here?You should have let me speak with Xander, we need his help to get out of here?” She yelled at my face. More like crying out in frustration because she doesn’t want to be here and I’m forcing her to stay with me.“I won’t let you ruin this for me because I warned you to stay back but you wouldn’t listen to me. Now I’m here already, and there is no going back. I don’t know if our enemies are close by, but ill be damn if I let you keep me away from my mom for one more minute. You stood up for your brother when he needed you, now it’s time for me to save my mom.” I yelled in her face, glaring angrily

    POV: Heather“How is she, why won’t she come along with you?” I asked him the moment he picked up my call. Alexia was busy checking around the house, searching for explosives or something. She did not see me going through my phone, but when she heard my voice she looked up immediately and she came running towards me, looking so shocked.“What the hell are you doing?” She yelled at me, trying to snatch my phone from me, but I put out my hand, stopping her from reaching for my phone. I gave her a look that said,“Calm down, I know what I’m doing.” She seemed to get the point, and she stood still, folding her hands on her chest. She did not try to take my phone again, but I could tell that she was still not comfortable with my decision. I ignored her and kept talking to Leon, telling him how grateful I was that he chose to look out for me. He was never this nice to me, I wonder what I did to make him like me this much. I guess he just wanted to take his time and get to know the real me b

  • Prince Xander's Timid Mate   Another Message From Leon

    POV: HeatherI marveled at her courage to pick up her phone, call Xander, and say all this trash to him. If I were her, I would be catching the next flight out of the country already. To think that she even tried to bargain with him, telling him to cl it even and let her and her family go after many years of betrayal and plotting evil against the prince. Then she threatened him with war, she threatened his life and mine, claiming she wouldn’t go down without a fight. If this is a trick to stall Xander while she escapes, then she is doing a good job. But if it’s not, then she had made a terrible mistake by threatening an already furious Lycan prince.I don’t know what he is planning, but I’m pretty sure that she would not make it out alive. The death she wished for me is coming right back to her, and just the way she plotted with my brother and the rogues and killed my entire family, that is the same way her entire family would go down. I would love to see that happening, but first, I

    POV: HeatherHe read my thoughts and discovered that I’d known about his ex-wife and Vinnie, and yet I didn’t say anything about it. That made him so pissed and he walked away from me, calling me a freaking liar. I felt a sharp pain in my heart as he swore never to forgive me for lying to him. It felt as if my whole world was crumbling before my very eyes. I’ve felt his anger before, but it was never this much, and he never looked this disappointed before.Everyone in the room looked so confused as he walked out on me, leaving me to either follow him out or remain in there with the remains of my family. Only Alexia understood what was going on between us. She came to me before I could fall down and cry my eyes out. She held me so right, holding me in her arms as the tears flowed freely down my cheeks.“What did I do?” I thought to myself as Alexia led me to the car. I’m sure if we didn’t come out on time, Xander would have left us behind. He looks so angry that it scares me to even lo

  • Prince Xander's Timid Mate   Disappointed By Heather

    POV: XanderWhen I first saw that app that is very similar to the app Celia likes using to store information she wants to keep secret, believe me, I thought it was just a huge coincidence. I mean it’s just an app that can be installed if you know the right people to go to, so I wasn’t expecting anything else. I just assumed that maybe he got the app the same way Celia got hers, that was just the thought in my head before I started viewing the damn files.Yes, I know Vinnie is a damn whore, and when she started aligning herself with the Alphas, I knew she has a mean trick up her sleeve. I assumed she was taking advantage of the Alpha's mistake to make them do her bidding, and I suspected she was dealing with the rogues as well, but I wasn’t too sure about that until I saw her meeting with Richard, making out with him even in the presence of other guys. From their interactions, you could tell that they go way back. They were more like close friends and not just acquaintances.There are
