Cassi povAs the spice I was sending will not give me any results I decided that I was going to return to my former home and they look for my husband personally. I decided to avoid my family in order to avoid any unnecessary encounters. I still cared about them but maybe it was better than they thought I was dead for now because I was still not ready to meet them after the years that have passed. Despite how well they had treated him at the end of what could have been my life they were the ones that are mostly push me to my limit, if it wasn't by the slimmest of chances that I was actually a princess then I would have just rotted way at the bottom of that cliff and nobody would have been able to find me. My husband always used to tell me that everybody was always desperately looking for me for the longest time, especially my brother. He told me that sometimes he would go out to look for me throughout the years that passed. He told me in one of such occasion it was raining ca
Alder pov Most of the passing nights, I was dreaming of my wife. I could barely remember where we would meet or what we would say to each other all of that was usually nothing more than a messy blur. All I knew was that she would be desperately trying to kill me and then I would try to stop her convincing her that I was not against her but I was on her side more than anybody else more than the fake friend that was pretending as if he cared about her when it was actually a facade to mask what his real plans were… Just thinking about it made me sick to my stomach that man was around my mate but through the spy that I had working as a double agent he told me that my wife had actually become very close to him and they were not behaving as friends anymore but rather casual enemies to each other. Now this both relieved me and made me even more worried because it meant that he was probably getting closer to his school and so he found a little reason to remain with his facade meaning
Cassi pov I didn't think that I was going to be emotional when I saw my former home again it has been so long even though it had only been two years it felt like it had already been 20 since I last saw it I remember that's the reason I come here was to look for my mate and then I have seen him with another woman even then I decided that it was going to be a good idea to pursue him later on maybe I deserve to the suffering that came to me because I couldn't just open my eyes to see that that man was not meant for me even if it was something that was meant to be it will be at a great cost as well and yet I was not ready to sacrifice that. I was wearing a cloak so that I would not be easily recognised and I could blend into the crowd while I was sure that nobody recognised me I am very sure that I was also not blending into the crowd from how everybody was glancing at me every chance they got looking at me as if I was some kind of exotic attraction that they couldn't comprehend maybe
Cassi pov I had expected my visit to this place to turn out in many different ways, however I didn't think that I would be having dinner with my husband's ex-wife but I guess I have been in more awkward situations in my life. While the food was being made we sat at the table together and then she poured me a glass of wine quite generously as well. I was staring at the glass suspiciously for a long time without thinking and then she laughed covering her mouth and told me that it wasn't poisoned. I looked up at her with shock covering my facial features but I guess I shouldn't have been blown away that she was able to notice my obvious reaction. "If it makes you feel any better I can switch glasses with you," She said still wearing that smile on her face that appeared to be warm but was so very cold that it made me shiver a little bit. "That will not be necessary…"I said to her, as I took the wine glass from the table gently sniffing out the smell while I tipped the glass arou
Cassi pov I had to place my palm over my mouth so that the gasp that was coming out will not be heard by the two of them beyond the bushes standing there was Daniella and the person that was approaching her was someone that I had trusted for so long. My former personal trainer, Hanson by the time he got close enough to her he wrapped his hands around her waist and then he pulled her in for a passionate kiss that lasted for so long until he finally pulled away and both of them looked breathless and their faces flushed while I was struggling not to throw up in the bushes that I was hiding in. "What took you so long?"she asked him."...I have been waiting for you so patiently ,"he ran his fingers through her hair."And I appreciate you for that after all what would I do without you?"The more I looked at them the more I fell into deeper denial that what I was seeing in front of me was reality. I even pinched myself and when I glanced over it was still the same. I had literally expect
Cassi pov I had let down my guard more than expected because the two of them soon spotted me and then shifted into the wolf forms and began to chase me. I turned around and ran, my breath becoming ragged with every step I took. Fighting with them was not going to be an easy task. I was already outnumbered and I already knew how capable my former trainer was, I didn't know how strong Danielle really was but I was not able to find out. Unfortunately this was not a choice that I would get to make as I kept turning around to check how close they were to me I wasn't able to focus on everything in front of me and I ended up bumping into a tree, this immediately threw me off guard and while I was struggling to regain myself it's all of them surrounded me and my former trainer pounced on me. "Now why am I not even surprised to see you here, you are always showing up when you are not wanted like a pest…" he said to me in mind link. "...maybe you would have been able to live longer if yo
His red eyes bore into mine while his face squeezed as he wore an irritating expression on his face. He was looking so violent and furious as he gazed heavily at me. I could see the hatred written all over him and I was sure he never for once wanted me. "Don't you dare stare back at me!" He thundered. I shook, a tear slipped from my eye and I couldn't even hold it back, I heard murmurings around me; of course, it was not a dream, this was happening to me, but why? "Lower your gaze!" He ordered. My eyes wandered around immediately, looking everywhere else but him. I caught myself trying hard not to look his way. How did things go from being good to just this? I couldn't pinpoint what exactly went wrong, my hands shook uncontrollably and my lips quivered but then I suddenly remembered this wasn't how things were meant to be, why was I afraid of him? I took a bold step and looked him in the eye, though I didn't feel any voice in my head or whatever I knew for sure that he was my mat
Alder's Pov For three years; I've been suspecting that Cassi was my mate, I'd been attracted to her and it was weird seeing that I don't get attracted to girls easily, her beauty was mid-tier so it isn't what made me feel attracted to her, I had waved it off initially thinking it was just my hormones and all but after the truth surfaced; I knew she was my mate.I was angry, at the world, the moon goddess, myself, and Cassi, how can I be mated to a mere human? Was the goddess mocking me? I needed a strong Luna beside me seeing that I'd be the next alpha, being an alpha isn't an easy task neither is having a mate.I have to someday lead my people to wars, make decisions and all that and the last thing I'd want is a burden on me, my Luna is supposed to be my side to love me, and care for me and the people, she would be a male alpha who if anything happens or the need arises would have to take my place, what's the use of a woman against supernaturals?My mother is a good example, I've ad
