I took my hand back abruptly, causing the ring to fall. I hadn't imagined it would. The ring had even skipped my mind. So, as it fell, I rushed to pick it, bending low. But then, the seams of my sparkly dress and the zip decided to get their revenge on me for having stressed them so much with my body. They gave out. Cool air kissed the bare skin of my back. My cheeks reddened as my eyes widened. The dress was torn. Right now, right here—it was mortifying. I straightened my back, not knowing where to hide. Kal stepped up immediately. Removing his jacket and laying it over my shoulder and back. He had been quick to notice what happened. "Thank you." I mouthed, and he only responded with a curt nod. Lord Ezra helped a guard to search for the ring on the balcony. At this point, everything was awkward; for the crowd watching and for us being watched. Reece kept up with his speech, extending it unnecessarily to create a distraction. But it wasn't working. All eyes were on Kaloyan and I.

All about Eastmoon Lycanthropy had to be inside their royal archives. I wouldn't vouch for anywhere else but here. After searching for thirty minutes, I found a dusty old box next to a shelf. Inside it were my answers. I chose a table and sat down, blowing dust off the big hard cover and choking on it. After waving my hand in the air to clear the dust, I finally got to it. I should know what Kaloyan's biggest weakness is aside from his princes. The book began with Eastmoon's history. How it rose from being the weakest to the strongest wolf city in the world. I read and read, flipping through pages, learning that they could be killed by decapitation. I imagined Master Kaine in that famous black hat, and then I imagined ripping his head off. "Looking for ways to kill me already, little dove." I jumped, looking behind me to find Kaloyan rested against the nearest shelf and first on the column. "What are you doing here?" I hid the page from Athena's file I carried with me inside the

I wasn't a werewolf. I possessed none of their unique abilities. All of this came to mind as I gauged the monsters circling me in this maze. They had spit dripping from their scary fangs. Talons that could cut deeper than a double-edged sword. But they were shaped like humans—feral humans. "I wasn't doing anything—Okay, look! I'm dropping the moonstone back." Taking down a hand lifted in surrender, I watched them from the corner of my eye while returning the moonstone to its three-handed holder on the platform. I didn't get to do that, though. A familiar voice stopped me at the last minute. Lord Ezra snarled. "Ms. Athena Williams, I didn't imagine I would find you here and not in your bed." "Tell them to stand down, Lord Ezra. I got lost in the maze and ran into the moonstone." "How am I sure you weren't trying to steal a gift bestowed on the Eastmoon pack by the moon goddess herself?" "Think about it. Why would I steal your moonstone?" He grunted, roving his gaze about. "I do

My eyes darted to Mattie at my side, who had involuntarily recoiled. I didn't know who had found us, but she knew and had kept silent about it for the minutes we stood. Pressing my lips together, my mind blanked. The woman before us bowed to me; the aftershocks of surprise gone with the dawn wind. Not for me, though. I narrowed my eyes that still darted between Mattie and her. "Ms. Williams, it's a surprise to see you." She eyed Mattie through the corner of her eye, sharing meaning I didn't partake in. "What are you doing here by this time? It's barely past five am." I opened my mouth to speak, but only a shaky breath got past it. She knew who I was—all of Eastmoon knew who I was, but I couldn't tell the difference. It was the price of fame I had to pay for living this life. "Uhm, it's going to be a long day, Patricia. Ms. Williams decided to start off her day early." Patricia nodded reluctantly, sparing an uneasy smile. She held the skirt of her dress, alerting me to her attire o

I hung from a tree trapped inside a net like a prey. I struggled, kicking the rope and making futile progress. A thousand curses rolled out of me directed at whoever had planted this right here. A lot of time passed, and my heart began to sink. I heard even noises that weren't there. Another long while passed, and I began to kick the net in a frenzy, even getting my foot stuck in one of the holes. Suddenly, it loosened. I was falling like candy from a piñata. What if danger awaited me below? My scream got louder when I landed in someone's arms and not the rough hard ground. I fought to be free, getting on my feet at last. "Kaloyan?" My eyes widened at the sight of him and a few palace security, standing right there. He stepped forward, holding my arm in a tender grip. "What are you doing out here, Athena?" I looked at the tree from where I was just hung and at the deflated net on the ground, biting my bottom lip as a slight frown creased my forehead. "I don't know how to explain

It was Lord Ezra. I winced when the old man staggered to his feet, disoriented by the blood on his hands. He had only touched his head. To think he was bleeding that much was scary to everyone. "Who did this?!" He shouted, glaring at everyone present. My bones felt twitchy. Nerves coursed through me. The universe must hate me so much to have to let this happen to the one man who had sworn to kick me out of the palace the slightest chance he got. He turned to Reece, who was closest to him because he had rushed over to help. "Tell me, Beta! Who's responsible for an attempt at my life?" The look on the Lord's face was carved out of hell as he searched the crowd with his eyes. They landed on me at the instant. I froze, knowing I still held the gun. Kaloyan and I were the only ones holding weapons. The only ones likely to have shot the bullet that grazed his skull and painted his silver hair red with blood. His frown deepened, turning dark as he considered me, the enemy. He was abou

KALOYAN'S POV I stormed out of the woods. Lord Ezra struggled to keep up, but I was too busy burning down the path I walked with the anger coursing through me. He had sent another parcel. I felt like a mouse trapped in an enclosed space, sick and tired, but without a choice. On the way to my study, my feet rooted to the ground all of a sudden. I couldn't move again. My eyes watered. I was still breathing fire, but my chest tightened as I stared at the little girl with Patricia's maid. I looked away, watching the marble floors for a few seconds. Again, I raised my eyes to the duo at the far end of the hall. Her sobs gripped my heart and squeezed it with a clawed hand. Lord Ezra said behind me, "My King? We should keep walking if we don't want to miss the Eastmoon annual fundraiser." I tore my gaze away from the painful sight ahead, looking over my shoulder and blinking a few times. It took a minute for me to recall the fundraiser I began a while back. "Where is it holding?" "Th

After Reece broke the news to me, I wasn't sure what to feel. An Alpha should fear nothing. But that was just a saying because a real Alpha had a lot of things to be afraid of. His throne stood out on this list of things. Lord Ezra's idea of the fundraiser was the only thing I could think of to save myself from the haunting truth. Had my father had an affair while married to Mother? I threw my head back, shutting my eyes while a headache pounded hard in my head. "We are here, Alpha Kaloyan. The Beta's wife and Ms. Williams only arrived a few minutes ago. Do we head elsewhere for now? " Geoffrey sat in the passenger seat of the car. He was in charge of protecting me. I opened my eyes as he spoke, looking out the window. I thought about Athena and the few encounters we've had. Though most weren't pleasant, I still intended to get to know her better. "No, I will get down here." He appeared uneasy, holding his protest back as he spoke into the security piece in his ear. "The Alpha w

I arrived at the Eastmoon palace a while later. The cab dropped me off and I wouldn’t be surprised if Miles was tailing me with how abruptly I had left the pack house. The guards at the entrance immediately recognized my face. “I have a message for the Lycan King from Xora, the moon goddess.”The moment they heard the moon goddess, they figured that I was here on important business and they let me into the palace. I didn’t walk, I ran for where I knew Kaloyan would be, his study.But just when I was about to climb up the stairs, the twins shouted my name, “Cara!”They screamed, rushing over to me and I hugged them back, ruffling their hairs although this loud welcome was not what I needed at all. “Where’s Shirley?” I whispered but it was too late.“Right here.” She surfaced at the top of the first landing on the grand staircase. “What are you doing here? Last I checked, the Lycan King had commanded you never to return.”“My business is not with Kaloyan. It is with you.” I glared at

“When is she going to get here?” I huffed and Miles rubbed a hand over my back, placating my impatient pregnant ass.We were receiving Ingrid at the airport. She had travelled to the North pack again and knew nothing about Xander’s arrest. “Just a little more. I know she’d come out next—“Miles hadn’t even finished talking when Ingrid surfaced with her many bags from the airport. I rushed for her, pulling her into a warm hug. “Ingrid!” I shrieked, “how are you, my darling?!”She hugged me tightly like we hadn’t seen each other in years which wasn’t exactly the fact. We helped her put her bags in the trunk, while we were in the car and she rode shotgun, she kept going on and on about her trip. “I can’t wait to see Xander. The last time I left things were pretty tense around here. Miles even had you locked up.” Ingrid’s eyes bulged as she realised she was touching a delicate subject.“It’s fine. He knows he made a grave mistake and is currently paying for it.”“Where’s Xander, Miles

I stopped breathing. He had run out and it was my fault because I had put that dagger in Joseph Kaine’s heart. I worried my bottom lip with my teeth, distraught.“You need to rest, Kal.” I held his arm, begging him to not dare leave me behind. He had to fight whatever this was, but I had seen what lacking Joseph’s blood did to him. I knew deep down that he was in grave danger. We had to do something fast. “I won’t die today.” He kissed my cheek tenderly. “Promise me you’ll show up for breakfast.”I thought about it for a second. Being at a table with Shirley made poop more inviting. Though I was eager to see Kal’s next move. Would he fight for whatever we have that we couldn’t seem to get over?“I promise.”He smiled at me, taking his time to let go of my hand until our fingertips parted. I smiled back and offered a tiny wave, wary of the hope I felt inside my heart. Kaloyan would choose me this time around. He had just made a mistake the last time. He just needed to see Shirley’s

I snatched the amulet from his neck while he fell lifeless on the ground. The mask wore off and Miles began to understand what was happening.“What were you thinking, Cara?! That was too dangerous—“I wore the amulet and breathed in power. It coursed through me. Miles stopped in his tracks because he could see it too, what was currently happening. I was becoming one with the gods item. And this had not happened before. “Cara,” he muttered.And I smiled, chest rising and falling hard as I declared, “It’s finally mine, Miles. I’m the rightful Queen of Arzdith Valley and Salems power flows through me!”“No!” Our head snapped to the piercing scream we heard. Reagan bounded over. She slid to the ground at Joseph’s side, shaky hands holding him close. It was weird seeing her this way.I didn’t know evil was capable of loving someone, but I guess it was true. In their own twisted way, they had loved each other. The rest of the protectors and the black guards and Dax’s army dashed over, so

The moon goddess was right. I was in the wrong place. The back of the line was not meant for me. I should be looking for Joseph Kaine and cutting deep into his throat. If it was Reagan I found first, even better. I grabbed a sun sword from the ground. The black guard that had been carrying it was dead on the floor. His green eyes were open and lifeless. I said a prayer for his soul as I stepped over him.“Argh!” I screamed, fighting with all my might and casting the fire spell which consumed the blade of my sword. I was slashing through demons at a rate of knots. The fire was destabilising them, giving me the advantage of speed when it should have been the other way around. At the back of my mind, I knew there was something I had to do. Who led the demon army? That question was yet to be answered. I had seen Joseph, Xander and Reagan conniving at the Silver Eye pack, but it seemed I had missed out on the last piece in the band of evils. Two demons came at me. I used my eyes to con

Kaloyan and Miles got down, followed by Sky. I stayed in the backseat, holding the twins close as they approached the cloaked figure. The streets were dark and lonely. There was mist floating in the path ahead of us. A chill coursed through my spine. I didn’t want any more danger. I needed a breather. A moment with my family again—even though, technically, they were no longer mine. When I saw the three of them bowing to the cloaked figure, curiosity had me getting down from the car. I put Jared in charge. He was more mischievous than his brother, but Jardran could never control Jared.“Kal, what’s going on?”I gasped and lost a step when I saw the face underneath the hood. She was as magnificent as Reagan was back in the Silver Eye pack. I gaped at her glittering pale skin and blue eyes. There was no doubt who this was. The one whom only the six protectors were given the luxury of speaking to face-to-face.“Oh my God, you’re Xora. The moon…the moon goddess.” I bowed my head so low
Protecting The Royal Babies: Nanny For A Wife 127: Fight For Us
I gulped, freezing for a long moment. There were a thousand and one ways this could go, but neither were about me escaping this unscathed. Reagan was here because he knew. “How did you know?” I sighed, pulling the mask off and switching back to myself.“I dated you. And even though you don't believe a word I'm saying, I loved you once—”“People who love me die, Xander. Stop lying to yourself.”He rolled his eyes and stepped forward to cuff my hands. “Either way, it was easy to tell that you were not my cousin. You escaped. There was only one place Cara would go and that would be to the Order, just to convince Miles that your Lycan King is innocent. Am I wrong?”I said nothing, just staring at the traitor he chose to serve. The evil that would be upon all of us soon. I had to think of a way to save the twins, but I could only come up with a miracle.“So you knew from the moment he texted you that this was going to be a trap?” I gaped at him. “Miles already suspected me the day he lock

CARA’S POVI headed out to meet Xander while wearing Miles’s face. It was highly dangerous because this could be a trap, but I could get to see the twins again and stall him from harming them. That was all that mattered. I drove his fast car, reminiscing the night of the accident when Athena died. It always flashed back to me whenever I sat in a car, but I had gotten used to the memories and the sadness that overtook me.There was a GPS tracker on the car. I carried his cellphone because everything had to be right. Xander couldn’t suspect a thing until we had him fooled. The Silver Eye pack laboratory was close. As I neared it, I said a silent prayer to Xora, begging her to save us all this once. I would protect the twins better if we got out of this mess. “Xander,” I called in a baritone Miles would use when I went down the stairs, leading into the underground laboratory.“You’ve always hated coming here.” His voice came behind me and I snapped my neck to him.He was right there,
Protecting The Royal Babies: Nanny For A Wife 125: Please Don’t Go
KALOYAN'S POVI moved closer to where they stood because I couldn’t keep myself far away from them any longer. I hated the way this wolf looked at Cara. Those eyes of his. I knew what it meant.He was in love with mine. I had no claim over Cara after everything that had happened, but I couldn’t help myself. My wolf still craved her. Her scent still drove me wild. I wished there was a way she would forgive me for the wrong choices I had made. But I wasn't yet out of those wrong choices. Shirley was my mate now.Miles glanced at me and stopped talking, turning away and leading us to where the rest of the Scarlet Order were settled. I walked paces behind Cara, not wanting to invade her personal space, even though my wolf was hungry to feed on her scent. Once we entered the camp, all four of them stood on their feet, their razor sharp gazes pinned on me, the enemy. Miles Kovani seemed to be crossing the line here with my presence.“What is the Lycan King doing here, Commander?” “Sky
