AUTHOR’S POV“Get off! Get off me!! Help!!!” Odessa screamed as she struggled to push Victor off of her. Victor chuckled as he grabbed her hands, holding them with his hands and intentionally releasing them from his grip because he loved to watch her struggle. “No matter how loud you scream, no one is going to save you. These walls are padded.” He laughed when he noticed the panic that crept into her wide eyes. “Stop! Get away from me!” Odessa screamed. She would never let him defile her. “Shut it already. Even if they somehow hear you, you're my finacée. I can always tell them we’re roleplaying and no one will question me. We're bound to be married someday.” He grinned, a psychotic glint illuminating his eyes. When Odessa saw him grab a rope, she immediately began to fight back harder. If he somehow manages to tie her down, she wouldn't be able to stop him from doing anything to her. When Victor managed to wrap the rope around one hand, she clawed him with the fingernails of the
CHAPTER 49AUTHOR’S POVKaiden had almost lost his mind when Elixir told him that they discovered more enemy packs and tracks, they found their source and other camps that were being created. The rage that he'd felt knowing that those bastards were the one thing that stood between him and seeing his woman again had been the fuelling source of his attacks on the battlefield. Although, they lost a good number of soldiers in each war, but at the end they came out victorious and all Kaiden wanted was to see Odessa. Fuck! He'd missed her. Night after night, he'd imagined what it would feel like to have her in his arms again. His imaginations had suddenly left dreamworld and began to attack him as hallucinations. So as soon as the war was over, Fiery Celestial moon pack began to make their journey back home. None of them complained when the King told them to pack up for departure immediately. They wanted to see their families badly, and they were damn tired of seeing the desert for near
AUTHOR’S POVOdessa is immediately transported to the incident with Victor. His words resound in her ears. Because you'd rather have the Alpha King’s dick! A thick lump began to form in her throat as tears pooled her eyes. The Prince had been right about her. She was just like him, a cheating partner. Kaiden immediately paused, the hazy lust that filled his eyes dying down a little as he quickly assessed Odessa who had gone stone cold beneath him. “Odessa! Odessa!!” He shook her gently, worried that she was going through a panic attack but he soon realized that wasn't the case. He placed his palms on both sides of her shoulders and pulled her up, carrying her body in his arms and placing her horizontally against him, her head to his bare chest as she sobbed. He tried to think of what might have triggered such an opposite reaction from her. Was it something he said? Or was this her body’s way of telling him to stop? “I'm sorry. I'm really sorry. I just can't…” She trailed off and
ODESSA’S POV“..., …cess…rinces…, Princess!!” I jolted upright, “Huh? Yes? Yes?” Evelyn pulled her head back and stared at me, “Are you alright, Your Highness? You've been out of it all day.” I grabbed the glass in front of me and downed the sweet, smoth texture wine before replying. “I'm good. Is there a problem?” I asked, dropping the cup gently in the table and looking up at Evelyn. “No, I just wanted to know if you wanted sauce on your salmon.” She asked. “Oh, Uhmm…just a little.” I said, punching my thumb and my second finger, close enough, but not quite touching. Evelyn nodded and went on to serve my dinner. I looked to the side and as soon as my gaze met his, I looked away, thankful for Evelyn wearing my hair down today. I turned the other way and hid my red cheeks from his eye view. “So, Victor, why don't you fill me in on the things that happened while I was away.” His voice booked in the hall. Victor cleared his throat, “Nothing much happened father.” “Oh, is that
ODESSA’S POV“I…I’m…” Suddenly, his eyes glazed over, and I paused. Saved by a mind link. His facial expression changed to that of anger immediately after the mind-link. “Your Majesty, is everything okay?” I asked, moving closer to him, watching him with concern. He nodded, “Yes, everything is fine. But something urgent just came up.” He sighed like he'd rather be with me than anywhere else. “We’ll continue this conversation later.” I nodded and he reached over to peck my forehead before storming out of my room through the balcony. I quickly ran to the balcony to watch as he descended with ease. He made it look so simple. ****“Hugo? Hugo!!!” I grinned and walked up to the guard and hugged him. He looked taller now, almost rougher around the edges and broader too. My arms could at least touch their tips before he went to war, but now…. It's so far apart. He grinned and hugged me back, “Hello Princess.” “When did you get back?” I asked. He frowned confusedly, staring at me, loo
ODESSA’S POVAs I rounded the corner to the hallway that would lead me straight to the King’s bedroom, someone suddenly appeared in my face and I had to stumble backwards, to avoid colliding with them. “Hello Princess,” Eira stood tall, smiling at me. I frowned, “I honestly thought you were never going to recover again.” She sighed, “Oh, I'd recovered for a while now. His Highness told me to stay low just in case a certain Princess was still feeling murderous.” I glared at her, “That punishment must not have been enough if you can still speak without thinking.” “Oh, I'm so scared.” She said sarcastically, “It's not like you can do more than you've already done. You're fuming with anger just from a few words I said, you must be mad to see me alive and walking.” I shrugged, “I can't say I'm not disappointed. Seeing your face in a cremation sight would have been more pleasant. But anger is an overstatement. You're not that important Eira.” I sighed, sounding like I was dealing with
ODESSA’S POVMe? He'll ask for me?...“Your Majesty, I–” “You don't have to say anything to that.” He smiled softly, cutting me off. “It's not possible.” I said softly. He had that look in his eyes, one I've become accustomed to seeing everytime he looked at me…Hope. “That's what I thought. Until I met you. Now, tell me what you want from me? Another question?” He asked, pulling away and walking towards his closet. “How do you know that?” I asked with one eyebrow raised. “You are very conservative, Princess. Nothing would ever bring you to my room if it's not a question that's bugging you. Although, I hope to change that one day.” He chuckled. “Well, glad to know that I'm that predictable.” He shrugged, “Not to everyone, just to me. I'm sure you threw them all off when you asked for the Minotaur.” He turned around, his gaze intense causing me to look down at my fidgeting fingers, “Although, I don't remember ever telling you about the existence of such a dangerous weapon or even
AUTHOR’S POVAs soon as Odessa walked out of the door, Kaiden sighed and reined back control from his Lycan. Thankfully Odessa hadn't suspected a thing, although he hated lying to her, he still had to do it for her sake. He had given control to Kieran and that's why the Lycan King had been able to communicate directly to Odessa. ‘I wouldn't have hurt her.’ Kieran mentally pushed at Kaiden’s barrier. ‘Not physically. She’ll hate us, I can't let you ruin the small trust she has for us. You're very impatient Kieran.’ Kaiden sighed. ‘You make it sound like I'm a different entity when I'm not!’ Kieran yelled back. ‘Technically, you are. The quicker you learn how to control yourself, the better for us.’ And just like that he ended the link and laid back against his bed, but as soon as his body touched the soft cotton wool of the bedsheet, he winced in pain. The wounds always became fresh when they appeared again. ‘She’s not that weak girl we knew from before. She can handle it. You'r
