ROWANI looked towards the window and I saw that it was nighttime. I sighed, really worried about Naya. Was she going to come out of the place alive?.The thought of hrr dying was the scariest thing to me and I didn't really think that I would be able to take it if anything did happen to her. Henry came back with the drinks that he said he was going to get and he handed one to me. I took it from him and took a sip. I had to admit that it was really good just what I needed. Just then, the doctor walked out of the hospital room and I ran to him immediately. "Doctor....how is my wife doing ...she is not going to die, right? She is going to be okay right?" I asked him all in one breath. The doctor looked at me and shook his head and my heart started to beat fast against my chest. I didn't know what to do or say at that moment. The only thing I could think of was that she was dead. She had died. What was I supposed to do without her? How was I even going to continue my life without
LIAM"What do you need me to do for you?" I asked him urgently. I was more than willing to do anything now. As long as it meant that I was going to keep my life. I didn't want to die. "I need you to rescue someone for me. He was taken by someone... I need to to get him out there," The King said with a frown on his face. I blinked my eyes. I could tell that he war trying to hold back as much informational as possible. I could not understand why he was doing this. If he wanted me to do something, then he should tell me what it entailed upfront so that I would be able to do a good job. "You need to tell me all that I should know about this person so that I can rescue them," I said to the King. He waved his hand at me. "you don't need to know anything more. You just need to know that he's currently behind held at the home of a man called Rowan. You just need to find out where Rowan keeps him and get him out for me," he said to me. I bit my lips and chuckled to myself when I heard Row
Naya’s POV I have always hated the smell and looks of hospitals since I lost my mom in them about ten years ago. Because of that, Dad made sure that the recuperation area in the pack's clinic was more like a stop-by inn. It was plain, hardly reeked of medicine and you could see the beautiful scene outside from your bed. The thought of him has my heart aching one more time. Since the last two years of his death, I have come to accept that there was no way I could move on. Deal with the pain and accept it? That was impossible. He has always been an important part of my life for more than twenty three years. And my only family for thirteen. Although he always said he was happy that he was leaving me in the hands of someone who I loved and who loved me as much. It still didn’t make the pain easier to deal with. Sweeping through the empty hallways, I realise there’s no staff around to ask how Liam is doing. Instead of going back, I drag myself to the male section of the clinic.
Naya’s POVI might have pinched myself a little more than ten times in the last minutes. It suddenly seemed like my entire life was falling apart, and as I finally gained the strength to stand up, a familiar scent flooded my nostrils. In seconds, Liam’s familiar figure rushes through the door, only that, he doesn’t stop. He probably didn’t even see me there, and I watched from where I stood by the door as my husband rushed towards Sophie. Sophie no longer had the fierce and aggressive demeanour from earlier. Instead, she has this frail and lost look in her eyes that reminds me of the many times that she asked me for a favour.But what is even more baffling is Liam. He looked nothing like someone who just got a transplant. “L…Liam… I told you that Naya would be angry as soon as she finds out,” Sophie says weakly and then burst into tears.Liam finally glances at my side, our eyes meeting. But it’s not him that’s staring at me. The Liam I knew, the Liam I married, always looked
Naya’s POVI wonder if I get to meet with Selene. Would I be angry at her for making me the chosen one? Or would she be angry that I couldn’t do the sole thing that she chose me for?To protect her people.When all the swirling and turning finally stopped, I pried my eyes open.Shock rushes through me as I take in the sight before me. The scene before me is nothing like what I expect the afterlife to look at. Instead, it was a scene that I knew too well. Remembered too well. Was the moon goddess trying to remind me of the day that I had made the worst mistake of my life? Of the day that I said yes to the monster that had taken everything from me?As I stare in the mirror, staring at the wedding dress from that day, my fists clench tightly.Wait…“How do I still have my body?”“I was wondering when you were going to realise it, silly,” Elisa’s familiar voice rang out, and I froze.“Lisa!” “What’s going on?” “We seem to be back in time, only that I don’t remember anything else f
Naya’s POV‘Elisa!’Having a wolf that was as strong as Elisa was the envy of everyone. An envy that I had known for twenty-five years before my first life ended.But none of them knew the disadvantages. Despite being my wolf, Elisa could take over my body while I was in human form. And she always did it at the worst timing. Like right now. I gulp as the man’s eyes fall on me; his blue eyes are clear and bright. So clear that they want to pull me in. Yet, there’s a chilling coldness in them that makes me want to stay away. And even as a shifter, I feel like he could be a threat to me. Was this man human? And if he wasn’t, why couldn’t I smell his wolf on him? “You need a groom?” He finally asked.I take a deep breath while trying to find the most logical explanation for what just happened. Yet, in that moment, the struggle for control between Elisa and me is even stronger. Like always, she wins.“Yes, I need a groom.” The man gives me another piercing stare that seems to go o
Liam's POV“Take it easy, Liam. It's nobody's fault,” Sophie says as she gets down from her car and walks to me.I slap a palm onto my face. “Then explain to me, Sophie. You've been designing for more than four years now. Why did you make a dress that is easy to tear?”“I told you to keep your feelings out of this. I told you!”Her eyes widen as she stares at me with surprise. My angry side is something she hasn't witnessed personally.“I didn't make any underhand design,” she argues. “The material, the pattern… all of it was in perfect condition before I handed it over.”“And then it ripped apart while she was coming down from the taxi. Fuck, I should have known something like this would happen,” I rant.I pick up a glass of water and take a gulp. Shouting for the past twenty minutes has really turned my throat sore.“You know what, Sophie? Saturday. You will make another wedding dress before Saturday. Do you understand?”“Darling,” she purrs, resting a palm on my chest, “you're soun
Naya’ POVA magnificent mansion is a few meters away from us. From the distance, it beams of royalty and wealth. Completely different from anything I had seen.“This is yours?” I intentionally ask Rowan who has just shown me that he can stay thirty minutes in a vehicle without saying a word to his spouse.“Yes.”That is all he can say.I sigh softly and manage a smile. “It’s gorgeous.”“Just like you,” he blurts out. It's a beautiful compliment, but it's so plain cause he doesn't even look at me when he says it.I manage to put on another smile. “Thank you.”Some minutes later, our car parks in front of the mansion and Henry rushes out to get the door for me and Rowan afterwards.He whispers something to Rowan and he nods in agreement to whatever it is.Rowan walks up to me and hangs his arm open.“Hold me,” he orders and I do that immediately. We are a newly wedded couple, so it's only natural that we act like one. But it seems a bit weird.The moment Henry opens the door for us to

LIAMI walked out of the princess room with a heavy heart. Although I would have liked to stay and talk with her some more, I didn't want to do that. I knew her father was going to be back any time soon and I didn't want to make him even more angry with me. I was walking back to the doctors office when I saw someone I never thought I'd see in the VIP ward of the hospital. It was Rowan and he was pacing outside a hospital room with a worried look on his face. There was another man with him who also had a worried look on his face. I hid myself in a corner so he won't see me and I continued to watch him. What was he doing here? Was Naya in the hospital? I got a report from the Elders in her pack that had left the pack since her father got better. What happened to her for her to be in the hospital though? I had a lot of questions. Besides,I wasn't even sure that she was the one in there. The other guy placed a hand on Rowan's shoulder. "I am going to go downstairs and get somethi
LIAM"And what do you want to see her for? Do you even think that her father is going to let you see her? You were supposed to have come back for the antidote for her soon but you didn't do that. Because of you, her life is in danger now and you think that for some kind of reason you can come here and demand that out want to see her?! "The doctor yelled at me. I bowed my head as he scolded me as if I was a child. I did not dare to raise my head or say a single word back to him. I knew that all it was going to take was for me to make a simple mistake and then they were going to deal with me. I didn't want to risk it at all. "No, you don't understand it. I just want to know how she's doing. I am not planning anything. How could I dare to plan anything when you're still her with me? I am really very sorry for what she is going through and I really just want to make sure that she is fine, okay. Besides, the King isn't here right now. I will be back before he comes back," I assured the
LIAMMy legs were shaking as I walked into the hospital. I walked into the doctor's office and I sighed in relief when I was that he was the only one who was in the office. What I was going to get from him was a scolding at least. The King was not here and he was the only one who could kill me. Seems like I still had some time to think of how I was going through convince them to give me a second chance. "So....what is your excuse, Liam? What lie are you going to come up with this time? You know, if you were not up to the task then you should not have lied and said that you were. It would have been much more easier for everyone else if you had just told the truth instead of beating around the bush and lying your way out! How dare you lie to the King?! Do you really think that you'd be able to survive this?" He asked me. I wanted to fall to my knees and plead, but I knew that it would be best to reserve that for when I saw the King. "You know that is not true at all. I have always
LIAMI dropped the phone on my table slowly. The call that I had just gotten was enough to shake me up. The princess had been admitted to the hospital. She was dying because she had not gotten the antidote in a few months. My heart was beating fast against my chest as I thought about what her father was going to do to me once he got his hands on me. He would not let me off. In fact, I was sure that he might even try to kill me. He would really kill me! I was so scared just thinking about it. All of the plans that I had made to get Naya back to her so that I could get some of her blood had failed terribly. She seemed to be aware of what I was planning and she blocked me on every front. I tried to get the Elders to work against her because I wanted her to come crawling to me. Once she married me to stabilise her father's pack, then I could do whatever I wanted with her right? That was why I had her father attacked, and pressured the Elders into asking her to get married. But it
ROWANNaya was in my arms, bleeding badly. Her eyes were wide open and she tried to say something but she could not nin the end, she closed her eyes and passed out.I picked her up and stood up with Naya in my arms. I knew I had to get her to the hospital as soon as possible. As I stood up, I was the rogue. There was a pale look on his face and the full weight ot what he had done seemed to be crashing down on him now. He took a few steps back as she tried to get away from me. I did not pay attention to him though as the only person I cared about in that moment was Naya and how I was gonna to get her to the hospital and make sure that her life was saved. I rushed out with Naya in my arms. Before I did, I turned to look at Henry and he nodded his head at me, indicating that he knew what he was going to do. ......Naya was admitted to the hospital as soon as I got here and the doctor told me that they had to operate on her. I was not even listening to anything that they were sayi
ROWANMy eyes went wide as I watched what was going on in front of me. I could not believe what the rouge was trying to do. Where did he even get the damn knife from?!I took a few steps towards him and he held Naya tighter. "Don't you dare approach me?! If you come close to me then I am going to slit her throat and I am going to make sure that she dies. If you are sure that you don't care about her and you want to see her dead, then you can come close to me!" He said. Naya was already crying by now and this was painful for me to watch. I didn't want her to die. I loved her with everything I had inside of me. How could I watch her die? "Don't touch her ...don't think that you are going to get away with it if you touch even a hair on her head. I will hunt you down and make sure that you pay if you touch her," I threatened him. "Do you think that you're in a position to tell me what I can and can't do?! Remember that her life is in your hands. She is your wife right?! If you don't
NAYAI was in a good mood after Jessica left our house. She had given me a dirty look before she left. Imagined that look meant that she was coming for me and they she was going to make my life hell but I did not care about her at all. She was no match for me at all. I went back to the bedroom to take a bath after I was done with breakfast. When I came back out, I could not find Rowan anywhere. I was worried that he had gone back to work. I could tell that he still wasn't completely fine and I did not want him to overexert himself just because he wanted to work. I was really worried about him. His car was still in the house so he had not gone to work. I walked around the house, looking for him. I frowned when I got to the staircase that led to the basement. I had never been in the basement before as Rowan told me that nothing important was down there and that there was trash there. I did not doubt his words for a bit. But it was really quiet and eerie. I wondered if Rowan was th
