CRYSTAL'S POVIt's been quite a while since we had a major royal breakfast altogether. The last one didn't end so well. After the embarrassing moments Luna Rachael and Alicia put me through, I never wanted the same thing to happen to me again. But this time, it's a little different because Alicia wasn't an enemy, but she's my friend. And friends treat each other with respect and not with disdain. But I couldn't say the same for Luna Rachael. I'm sure that she still despised me as much. Nothing had changed. Not even Alicia, my new friend, could do anything to change her mind."Did I forget to mention that you look absolutely stunning this morning?" Xavier's slik voice seeped through the recess of my mind, pulling me back to the present.I gaped as I blinked in surprise to see that his hands were already grabbing my shoulders as he raked his hungry eyes all over my body as if he could take off my clothes with his eyes.I gulped, my cheeks blazing like hellfire as I tried to calm the th

CRYSTAL'S POV Hearing Xavier say those words made my insides flutter, and my heart danced with joy. He was my hero, and he didn't hesitate to swoop in and save the day.I know I should be feeling bad for Alicia, now my friend, but then again, Xavier was right. I was his mate and I should come first. And besides, there was no place I'd rather be than with the man whom I love and cherish. I shot her a rueful look as Xavier pulled me away from her.We made our way to the dining room on our own.When we arrived, we were greeted by the cold stare of disgust from none other than Luna Rachael herself.She had already started eating her breakfast by the time we arrived, and when we appeared, Xavier was holding my hands, her brows were scrunched up in utter disgust and she spat her food back into the plate.She reached for the tablecloth and dabbed the corner of her mouth."Oh, great! Now my breakfast is ruined. I was already happy that you two were not going to show up." She rolled her eye

CRYSTAL'S POV A personal bodyguard? I never thought of that! I have actually never seen the use of one before. I was a slave and I wasn't even regarded as a person, so why the hell should I need a guard? They even wanted me dead. No one cared if I was gone. Just do your damn job, that was all. Even if I eventually passed away, I would be swiftly replaced and everyone and go about their daily lives like nothing ever happened.That was my plight back in the day. But this time, it's different. I was living in a different era. Alpha Xavier Fernández, cared for me. Of course, he wouldn't let me die just like that. I was his mate!That was why he had sent protection; he ordered the guards to go with me. However, that didn't even offer me the solid protection and security I thought I would be getting. My life was put at risk, and I was suddenly faced with a near-death experience that I almost wouldn't have survived if not for the prompt intervention of Alicia Evans.She was now my friend

ALICIA'S POV Damn it! Damn it all! What with him?! Why was it so hard for him to trust me? I thought as I watched them leave.Well, it didn't matter anyway. Judging from Crystal's reaction, she will most likely try to convince him to get her a guard. He had to anyway. He had no choice. She needed a bodyguard, and I have just the right person for that.This was the perfect opportunity for me to strike. If they bloody think that I gave a rat ass about Crystal's safety, then they were in for a rude awakening. I couldn't care about her safety. In fact, the person they should be mindful of was me. I was the threat within the four walls of this royal palace, and I would not give up until I saw Crystal utterly defeated, grovelling at my feet, begging for her lifeNow that I have dropped that valuable piece of advice as a good friend would and Crystal would have done her own part as a good friend by convincing her mate that she really needed a bodyguard, then it was the right time to act.I

ALICIA'S POV "C'mon, Alicia! Tell me more," he urged with excitement stamped all over his face, “I’m dying to know already!"I chuckled. I didn't have the luxury to dilly-dally around, so I indulged his curiosity. I took a deep breath and heaved it out, and then I cleared my throat.He arched his brows, goading me to spill the beans. But was he up to the task? Well, it was something that I'm sure he was capable of doing, giving his calibre and smartness. I mean, he's been a spy all his life; surely the task of wooing a young lady shouldn't prove so difficult for him to do."It's a very simple yet delicate task." I started.His brows pinched together at the last word."Delicate?" He quizzed. "What's delicate about the mission?" I cleared my throat again. How do I put it? I know he's not new to sleeping with women to siphon information from them, but this time, it wasn't exactly something he was used to. This time, there wouldn't be any information to retrieve or steal. He would i

ALICIA'S POV He cleared his throat, startling me.So was he going to do this or not? A lot depended on his response. Hopefully, he accepted and saved me a lot of trouble.He fell silent again.I arched my brows at him curiously."So? Are you in or not?" As much as I was concerned about what his response was going to be, it was best I got this over and done with quickly.He bit his bottom lip, rubbing his chin as he gave it some thought. He cleared his throat again and shot me a half smile."Okay! Truth be told, I'm interested in who this lady is, so yeah, I'm taking the job. And besides, " he paused, a sly smile crept over his lips, "it wouldn't be so bad to explore the royal palace."I rolled my eyes and chuckled. Thank goodness he accepted this mission!"Remember, don't get carried away. This mission is very important. You can't afford to mess this up, but I'm trusting you on this." I said firmly. He really couldn't! This mission was far too important for any screw-ups.He chu

ALICIA'S POV Knowing someone like Martin, surely he would love to have power and title. But what can I offer him? I'm not even the new Luna yet, and now my position was still under debate because of Crystal Thorne. That was why I needed him on board. This mission was a priority! He had better not mess things up.The plan was to get him invested in this mission.I cleared my throat, preparing to leave as I slowly rose to my feet."Like I said, I would reveal things bit by bit in the course of the misson. Just be on board and get moving. " I said firmly.He arched his brows at me as he stood up, towering over me like the mountain Alps. He was insanely tall if not one of the tallest men I've ever laid eyes on."Is this how it goes? What if I'm not interested in the extra package? What would you do then?" He quizzed.He wouldn't let me be now , would he? Rolling my eyes, I heaved out an exasperated groan."Martin, I already promised I'm going to give you a lot of money."He cackled.

ALICIA'S POV Everything's was set. I'm so happy we are finally getting there. Baby steps, they say, was better than nothing. It was indeed better than remaining stagnant. I mean, they have been a lot of setbacks, but at least I was still on track. I still had some things under control. I was enthralled to be visited by the news ,shortly after we arrived from my secret trip off the palace, that Xavier had sent for Lucas in search of a guard for Crystal as soon as possible.He had nothing to worry about because we just went to fetch a new bodyguard for his mate. The man that would be working under me. It was only a matter of time, and then let's just hope that Martin got approved by Xavier. Anyway, he didn't have any choice, did he? From what I hear, he was quite desperate for one. So I was definitely in luck.After we had left Martin's shop and had approached Luacs who had been waiting for us, I knew that things wouldn't be so difficult for Martin after all. "Lucas, this is Martin,
