Chapter 61. Kaden"You should wipe off that grim look, Alpha Kaden." A teasing voice wafted into my ears.I narrowed my eyes at the owner. It was Detlef, Alpha Aurel's Beta. I had woken up on the wrong side of the bed today, and could the day get any worse?I was stuck in the same car with Detlef. It was already an incredible feat that I hadn't strangled him."I believe we aren't close enough for you to tell me what to do." I retorted."Well, I believe the Prinzessin wouldn't like to see that look on you." He shrugged, turning his gaze away.I stifled a growl. "Talk about her again, and you'd have your balls in your mouth." I threatened, my voice dripping with menace."Easy lover boy. Tch, that's the worse thing about love. It turns you into an idiot." He shook his head, and flashed me a mocking look of pity."Call me a lover boy again, and see how-" I began saying when Brandon interrupted me."What's the plan?" He asked in his characteristic calm tone.I swallowed down
Chapter 62. ReeneFor some reason, I couldn't tell, I'd felt unsettled all day. My heart felt as though it had been gripped by a vice and something bad was on its way, but I couldn't quite figure out what it was. Talk about waking up on the wrong side of the bed again. I shook my head, pacing my room restlessly as I glanced occasionally at the portrait on the wall. It was a beautifully drawn fountain.A creak sounded on the door, and I turned around sharply. With a calm demeanor, my mother stood at the door entrance."Königin," I muttered, flashing a ghost of a smile. I noticed her wince, which she quickly hid, with a smile. My heart clenched, and a brief feeling of guilt, washed over me. I should be calling her 'mother,' yet I couldn't bring myself to."You're still up?" I hugged myself, as she strolled in."Yeah, I couldn't sleep." She shrugged. "How is it going?" She continued, looking around the room. I could tell from the look on her face that she had somethin
Chapter 63. KadenA couple of days had passed since the harrowing rescue. I still remembered the moment like I was reliving it a second time because of how tedious and miraculous rescuing Trisha had been. At a point I thought it wasn't going to be possible but thankfully we were able to pull through it and get her out of the danger before it was too late. The Forest of Void wasn't a safe place for anybody to be due to the dangers that it housed. A lot of spine-chilling stories were told about the forest and the people who had got lost in it, never to be seen or heard from again. The life in Hezen, by the way, was gradually getting more and more familiar and I was gradually picking the morning rituals and routines that came with being here. I also found happiness whenever I was with Reene, not to mention. Alpha Aurel's help the whole time that we had been there. Since Trisha was getting better and everything at this point went like clockwork, I couldn'
Chapter 64. Reene.I stood at the balcony watching as the car roared to life. I couldn't help the way I felt about him leaving. I wished I could stop him now and let him know that I didn't quite trust him going back to the pack. They had clenched my heart again like a vice-grip and no matter how much he tried not to think about it, the thought always stuck like a leech. Something deep down told me that a very grave situation was about to happen within our Pack and him going back was only going to fuel it.As I stood there, watching as the SUV started getting tiny in the distance ,the pang of angst continued to intensify and I wondered if it was all connected to the terrible thoughts and feelings that had plagued me lately. I wished he had listened to me at least, things might not have been going this way. But he was always the stubborn type who never listened to advice and went on to do whatever came to his mind. After a while of standing there, I couldn't stay
Chapter 65. KadenI was still pacing even while in the car. "Come on, you've got to calm down. You're not helping matters at all. We will get there very soon!" Brandon advised but I was anything but calm. My wolf wouldn't let me be and my mind in addition was heavily concerned about what was going on in my Pack right now. I could only imagine what must have happened since the guard had mindlinked me. Something told me that the situation might be even worse at the moment. I just hoped that My Pack wouldn't be subdued by those filthy rogues, I hoped I would get there on time and deal with the enemies who were doing everything to have everything I've worked for demolished in the blink of an eye. The journey, per say, was quite tense as I fought the worries that clogged my mind. The engine of the car provided a backdrop to our conversation which came occasionally. "Can you just calm down?!" I growled at my wolf, already sweating from the discomfort he was caus
Chapter 66 Reene"This isn't going to work! I don't feel a damn thing. Ugh!" I bit my lips in frustration as I closed my eyes again. I opened them a few seconds later, wanting to disappear from the room. "That's the way it is. You just have to keep trying it until you finally get there. Look, dear, it doesn't matter how long you do it. As long as you can get it done correctly for an amount of time, it will compound in the long run and very soon you're going to keep getting better and better until you finally get in touch with your wolf. It's that simple but you've got to give it time my dear." That was the one-thousandth time she was drumming those words into my ears today, and it was pissing me off, I wasn't going to lie about that. "Ok?" She said, chuckling when a smug smile crept up my face. I closed my eyes again, trying to shut out everything happening on the outside and focus on my inner being. But as soon as I closed those eyes, my thoughts drifted off t
Chapter 67. KadenPain, agony and torture. Those were the things that we faced in the dark, dank cell that offered no atom of hope as we went through all sorts of punishment. I wondered how I would have to go through it all before we would be released. I still regretted the fact that I didn't listen to her, and every now and then I gnashed my teeth in grime and thought about what I was going to do. The days blurred into endless nights and each night was marked by the relentless pain was inflicted on me by Denisson and the rest of the time, his guards. My thoughts were broken when the door opened to reveal Dennison. He had a wide smirk on his face as he approached us, his footfall resounding resounding over the room. He had a rod on his hand and on the other side was a whip. I bowed my head as I anticipated another session of nothing but pure pain as he carried out his sadistic desires. "Gentlemen." He chuckled, taking the seat that was already placed by the sid
Chapter 68. ReeneSitting in the plush indoor forest of Hezen was something only the royalties could access. It was a therapy of its own because of the peaceful, tranquil nature of the place and the beauty that it exuded, not to mention the exotic flora which provided a stark contrast to the turmoil that was presently going on in the Pack. I wished things were way better than they were now. I wished we could.go back to the old days when everything was right and the world hadn't gone mad like it was right now. I watched as the waterfall in the distance hummed. There were geese that added to the beauty which went quite well with the green. I was seated by my mother on a bench. We were the only ones in here and every access to the woods had been blocked because we had a special program, as she was still teaching me how I was going to awaken my powers. She was very happy with the fact that I was getting way better very fast. There was no doubt now that I had in
Epilogue. Reene The morning was bustling with excitement but there was no doubt that it had a touch of chaos to it. Everyone was trying to leave for the wedding and with Kaden getting on my nerves, I had no idea if we were going to be able to catch up with the wedding service. I needed to be there before the wedding so I could talk to her and offer the advice I could. I stopped for a while, listening for a footstep but i heard none. I was beginning to simmer. "Honey! We are going to be late! Come on." I yelled, shaking my head. Amber was soon running down the stairs. "Where's your brother?" I asked, stretching my hand across the stairs to stop her from running. "And please don't run down the stairs anymore, okay?" I said to her, giving her a gentle pat on the cheeks. She nodded before replying. "He's with daddy." I glanced down at the luggage. There were no guards in sight to help me with it so i just had to wait until Kaden was down. He had always complained ab
Chapter 94. ReeneMy heart jumped, the moment I saw Amber stumble. She was outside playing with Ichabod and something had bumped her tiny feet.Thankfully she was able to steady herself before she bolted off again in full tilt, her tiny legs carrying her with boundless energy. "Goddess." I muttered, knowing I had to go get her immediately before something worse happened. I quickly stood up from the window side where I was seated. "She's just like his father, they never rest. You should let her. " My mother said, smiling the moment she knew what was happening. "I'm not taking the chance mother." I said, hurrying towards the door before she said something else to stop me. I could hear her laughter as I walked through the passageway, en route to the outside. A tender smile crossed my face the moment I saw Ichabod running after her. They were chasing a butterfly and the moment she caught it, they admired it for a while, the laughter ceasing. She flashed a grin the moment
Chapter 93. Reene It finally arrived. The day I'd become Kaden's wife officially. My nerves tingled with anticipation and excitement as the stylists scurried around me, each performing the specific tasks they had been employed to carry out. I had been dreaming of this day, ever since he mated me, it would seal the relationship between Kaden and I forever. I could feel nimble fingers brushing my hair as my makeup was being applied. "Your hair is absolutely gorgeous." Jane, the blonde hairdresser complimented, but I knew it was a hyperbole. My hair was great, but absolutely gorgeous? No. "We are thinking of weaving in some braids, what do you think?" She asked, the rest of her words were carried by a loud bang that emanated from the door as another stylist walked into the room. "I'd love the braids, be fast about it though. We don't have all day." I said, admiring my hair hair the mirror. "And your makeup, I am thinking of a soft, smoky look." "Just do your thing Jan
Chapter 92. ReeneMy eyes fluttered open and the world gradually began to come into focus. I tried to sit up but the pain in the lower half of my stomach reminded me that it was best to stay still for now. My mind was still clogged with what happened before I fell asleep and as the memories started to rush in I couldn't help but be emotional. I remember everything from how Kaden had successfully rescued me from the hands of Mateo and how the contraction had begun and how I had passed out as soon as we got back to the park. I had no idea of how everything else happened but I guess we were here. My mind was still filled with lots of thoughts and I could not think straight at the moment. That was the moment something struck my mind. "Kaden? Is he in danger?" I asked myself, remembering how Mateo had ordered his men to have him shot. My thoughts were just a jumbled mess and I couldn't quite piece everything together. That was the moment I turned my head to my right and to
Chapter 91. KadenI was standing face-to-face with Mateo and I knew right there and then that the moment had come. The air was filled with anticipation and as I looked back at my men. I knew that they were going to do everything to make sure that my mate was safe. They were all carrying their weapons, ready to carry out my orders if I gave any. The fate of my mate was in the balance, and I knew that any little mistake could cause everything to crash down, so I was going to make sure that we took this gently, considering the kind of evil person that Mateo was. There was no doubt that he could do everything as long as he got what he wanted and in dealing with such kind of people you had to be very careful. We continued to stare at each other for a while and the gears continued to turn in my head while I thought about what I was going to do to him. I prayed for a brain wave, something that would have me attack him before he even knew what was going on. But I also suspected
Chapter 90. Kaden The only sound that could be heard in the room was the clashing of sword against sword as we prepared to embark on our journey to rescue Reene. We made sure to get everything ready and inspect if there was anything we were leaving behind thankfully there was nothing remaining. The morning had been a very restless one since the mysterious man had interrupted our breakfast with the spine-chilling news. At this moment I still remembered how the man had run into the room with a very worried look on his face. After that he claimed that he had zeen Reene being abducted and taken into a cave in the northmost part of the woods. We had all stopped eating in shock because this was the second time that it was happening. The first time it had happened, the men had killed themselves, and now this. The only mistake I had made was thinking that this was going to be a different situation, but in the end, it turned out to be wrong. The other descriptions that he
Chapter 89. ReeneNot long after the incident a group of men brought a plate of food and dropped it in front of me. Before leaving the room they all made sure to say one wild thing or the other just to make sure that I was disheartened. I wondered what they gained from making me uncomfortable not minding the situation that I have found myself in. I wondered how things would turn out in the next few days now that I have been caught. I instinctively knew that their punishment was going to be very bad. But I knew I had to endure the whole thing until I was rescued from this horrible cave. After making fun of me, the men began to walk out of the room once they began hearing footsteps. I knew it was Mateo but actually he did not come anywhere near the room. I sat there in the darkness and the silence staring at the place of food on the floor. They had tied my hand just to make sure I ate in the most degrading way possible. My heart was filled with hatred and anger as
Chapter 88. Kaden I was seated in the dining room and despite the noise that was going on around me I was so lonely and felt like a ghost. The room was filled with the aroma of freshly prepared food but I knew that eating we just felt like I was pouring ashes into my own mouth. I could not eat because my heart was shattered. I looked up again at the table to see the pastries, grapes and all other sorts of food that was scattered around it because none of it appeared to me at all. I could not eat because my heart was filled with guilt and the Guilt no matter how much I tried to state a side continued to gnaw at me from the inside. It felt as though I was being ripped apart from inside because how could I sit here and try to eat while my mate and my unborn child were in the captivity of an enemy who I knew nothing about. The worst part of the whole thing was that the enemy who had abducted my maids had not offered any kind of Ransom and it was clear that they wanted he
Chapter 87. Reene My days in captivity were getting more and more endless and I had no idea when this nightmare that I could not escape would finally come to an end. Every morning that I woke up in this dank, damp cave, my confidence that I would be rescued one day gradually waned. With each passing day my cope gradually chipped away into the Dark void that awaited me. I had done everything possible to use my powers and use them against my cactus but none of it worked. Even my wolf had not been active at all. I had done everything to communicate with my wolf but it seemed impossible. It was at this point that I knew that I was alone and that I had to even put more effort and make sure that I got out of this place. But with my condition, I wondered how that was going to be possible. The fact that it was going to be very hard scared me more than anything else because I couldn't bear the thought of complications. So I just had to keep my eyes Sharp and wait for t
