Third person pov:

(Still the flashback)

Nora's eyes went wide in surprise, “Really? Would you be there?”

“Why not?” he held her by the waist and pulled her close, “I can’t miss the first shift of a girl who has had this huge crush on me ever since she entered the palace,” He said with a straight face.

The smile on her lips vanished like anything, and she pushed him hard, “Fu*ck off!”

However, he didn’t even budge from his place, “Will you miss me?” she didn’t make the mistake of looking into his eyes.

“Tell me, N.” placing his finger under her chin he raised her face, “Will you miss me?”

Out of nowhere, she felt tears brimming her eyes, “I don’t know.” She tried controlling her quivering lips.

He kept looking at her and then leaned ahead to kiss her forehead, “I’ll miss you, N.” She closed her eyes when felt his lips against her skin.

Her friends in school used to mock her for having it the easy way. They used to envy her because she could easily get Prince Orion's attention without

    (Seven years ago)Third person pov:Alexander was cutting the wood with an axe and could feel the giggling of the girls around him. But he didn’t pay much attention and kept doing the job. He had to sell the wood before evening to get some groceries for his little family.Just him and his mom.Ignoring the sweat trickling down his face, he raised his strong arms gripping the axe tightly, and brought it down onto the wood with a thud when a beautiful woman came out of the small hut and stood there with a smile.He stopped and threw a glance at his mom, “Aren’t you going to the Market to buy groceries, mother?” He placed the axe down and sat on the stack of logs at a side.Instead of answering, his mother kept looking at him. They had made it too far. He was exactly how she wanted him to be.Strong, educated, and empathetic. She had been doing a lot of hard work to give him the education, he deserved. Staying hungry for long hours was not easy but she did it so that she could provide t

    Third person pov (Flashback continues)“How am I looking?” dressed in a dark grey suit, he asked his mom.Layla’s face was beaming with warmth and joy. Today was the day when she would get the rewards of all her hardships and struggles.The moment they came out of their small house, she could sense the eyes of young girls on her son. On the other hand, Alexander was not even looking at them. She did not know if Alexander could hear their voices.But all of them were singing praises about how handsome he looked.“Oh my god! Just look at him! I always knew he was gorgeous but never had this idea that he was this handsome. This suit fits him so well.” “I always wished that he would become my boyfriend. Always had this idea that he would look good whenever he will dress better.” “Now that's what I call a million-dollar look.” “I bet, tonight he is going to look more gorgeous than our prince Orion.” Every remark from these girls was making Layla’s head rise with pride. Tonight was the

    Alexander povFlashback continues:We were taken inside the room that looked like a library... Like a huge one. Our one-room, tiny cottage could easily fit in the corner of the room.After the fuss that was caused by the crowd, we were ushered into the royal library. No announcement was made, and the public was asked to leave the stadium after receiving sweets from the royal family.The royal family must never have imagined that they would be distributing sweets for the coronation of an outsider, instead of their son.There were several couches where we were made to sit and were offered fresh juices. However, I was the only one who picked the glass from the tray. They all seemed too tense to eat or drink anything.“What do you want, Layla?” I didn’t find it strange that the king knew my mom's name. I could understand that my mom might have been the mistress of the king but still, she was my mom, and she deserved the same respect from me as any noblewoman.“Young man! What about you? W

    Alexander’s pov: “Watch out your tongue!” The Crown Prince who looked quite timid on the stage screamed at the top of his lungs. Till now I was sitting there with a bored expression on my face but the moment he got loud I also got to my feet and raised my index finger in warning while looking into his eyes, “No disrespect to my mom!” my voice sliced through the air like shreds of ice. “Can't you see how she is talking to my father?” The darling Prince protested. His voice was all grumpy and annoyed as if he could not take it anymore. To be honest, I was enjoying his discomfort. “You are not a baby, Prince Orian Ironheart. If you don't understand this then let me spell it out for you. We have got the same father! Got it? Now be a good boy and sit back on the couch.” A sarcastic chuckle escaped his lips, and he shook his head at me as if he was making fun of me, “No he is not your father. He only has three kids. If your mom was a mistress to him then she should have informed the ki

    Orion Ironheart’s POV: While trying to stuff my clothes in my backpack, I looked for my phone and then went ahead to pick up the family frame where we all were laughing crazily.Mom and Dad were sitting on those royal chairs that had carvings of heraldic symbols and ornate scrolls while I was kneeling in front of them. Little Stella and Ruby were on my sides hugging me tightly.Dad was looking at the camera lens, and for the first time, I noticed that my mom's eyes were on my head.Liar!Liar!You all have been nothing but hypocrites. You all are liars!Fixing my bag’s straps on my shoulder, I gave a last glance to my room where I spent my sixteen years surrounded by luxury and comfort.However, when I opened the door, I found my family standing there with tear-filled eyes. Nora was standing at the back.“What do you think you are doing?” My mom tried to push me back into the room, “Go back to your room and get some sleep. We can talk about it later.”This was my mom.The same mom wh

    Orion Ironheart pov Nora was the only one who was coming after me. “Oryan this is madness. Don't do it.” I crossed the door and no guard tried to stop me. My father must have already sent a mind link. “The girl who used to worship the ground I walked, is now telling me that whatever I'm doing is madness!” A sardonic laugh slipped my lips, “That I'm giving absurd suggestions? Now here is another absurd offer, Nora.” I turned one last time to look at the door where guards were looking at the ground waiting for Nora to come back through open gates. “If you love me, you can follow me. I promise I’ll take care of you.” Confusion crossed her face because she wasn't expecting it. “I can't leave the palace, Orion and you know it. Your father brought me here when I was very little. I owe him my life. I might come to you when I turn eighteen but right now, I am under his care. I can't show him my back at this crucial moment.” I was somewhat expecting it but still, it gave a blow to my hea

    (Flashback has ended)Alexander pov:After asking my assistant to connect me to the Green Palace, I was waiting impatiently for the call to be received, holding the receiver in one hand, and tapping the index finger of my other hand.As a king, my assistant was supposed to make the call through before handing over the receiver to me. But this call was special.This was to the boy who had everything seven years back but lost his precious and royal life because of me.“Hello,” the man who must be his assistant or secretary spoke on the phone, “who is this?”“May I speak to Orian Ironheart?”“I asked you first buddy.” The mean guy spat in anger, “Who are you and why do you want to speak to Orion?”“Can you get Orion to the phone urgently? This is your king speaking.” I could sense the rustling and commotion on the other end and was quite amused.None of them might be expecting the call and they were not wrong. Why would the king of Aradia Kingdom even bother to call a man who was the for

    Nora’s pov:With each stroke of water, I let myself sink deeper, trying to steady the racing beat of my heart. Swimming always helped me clear my mind, and today was no different.Alexander had left to meet Orion, and I could not help it when I felt several knots forming in my stomach. The idea of him meeting Orion was just too much for me to handle.All those childhood memories kept flooding back, making me feel overwhelmed.I lifted my head out of the water splashing a bit as I wiped my face. Brian was seated in the recliner, deep in his thoughts.The maid who was offering him some drink now walked to the edge of the pool and placed a small tray that had a lemonade glass in it.“Anything else, ma'am?” She asked me politely and I gave a gentle shake to my head.Leaning my arms on the edge of the pool, I took a few sips of my drink letting the tangy sweetness take over my body and mind.“You know? If something is bothering you, you can share it with me.” I heard Brian's offer and wave

  • Rejected by Triplets, Claimed by Lycan King   Epilogue

    (Two years later)“Your Highness. There is a woman who wants to meet you,” I closed the book, I was reading in my library, and looked at the little bundle of joy sleeping peacefully in my arms.I mind linked the governess to come and get the baby and wait for me here. “Keep her here. No need to come out,” I instructed her after kissing the small forehead and went to the guest area. I knew who my visitor was.That was the reason I passed some special instructions to my servants.When I reached there, I found a red-colored, huge, georgette cloth hanging in the middle. The woman was sitting on the other side of the cloth wrapped in a black shawl hiding more than half of her face.The shawl belonged to only one woman.No servants or maids were accompanying her. She was not wearing any fancy gown but a simple cotton skirt with a mismatched blouse.I took my seat on this side and waited for her to speak. I had somewhat guessed that she would come to meet me one day.“Alexander… I… I’m here

    (NOTE:It’s a free chapter for my dearest readers as it was too short to post. Love you all!)Lola’s POV:Sigh! I was back in the cell and was trying to decide if this time I should seduce the guards or the strong man who usually brought meals for me.This time I was chained but there was almost no physical abuse. Orion passed the order of my arrest because someone told him that I attempted to kill Alexander.And why would I do that? I love him!I kept screaming at the top of my lungs that I was innocent and then…Then someone told me that Liam heard me talking to the witch.My own flesh and blood were the ones who spoke against me. When I kept doing all those evil things, nobody could even harm a hair on my body.But this time when I was really innocent, I was thrown into the dungeons. I didn’t say a word after that. Trust me.The person who loves you most can give you the worst pain. In my case, it was Liam. Every bad thing I was doing to others was because of him.I wanted the thro

    Zara’s POV:(Trigger warning for physical abuse and rape, but not too graphic)There wasn’t a moment I didn’t miss my friend. As Omegas, all of us always had great respect for her. None of us could tell her that. She was always so strong-headed and knew how to stand and speak up for her rights. Nothing about her was odd. Do you know, why?Because she was the firstborn of the beta of the pack. As powerful and as strong-willed as a beta should be. Her father, her stepmom, his mates, Violet… all of them tried to take away something she deserved.And then didn’t like it when she took a stand for herself and protested. Eric must have realized what a gem he lost.But the shitty-headed man didn’t want to accept it with an open heart. Apparently, a man is someone who knows how to suppress a woman and finds it insulting to apologize for his mistakes.His ego is bigger than his di*ck.That day when Rayna went to take a shower because she was too excited about her upcoming date with King Alexan

    Rayna’s POV:“What is my wife thinking!” I gasped and then smiled when his arms wrapped around my waist kissing the nape of my neck.“I was missing my husband,” I leaned back my head to his chest, forgetting all my worries knowing full well he was there to take care of everything.I trusted him and was sure he would be a great father to our child.“How is our son doing?” his hand slid under my top and I laughed hard when it settled on my bo*ob. “The baby doesn’t reside here, mister,” I gestured using my eyes towards his hand that was under my clothes. “Umm hmm. I know. His food is. I was just checking if there is enough to fill his tummy,” I felt his nose getting in my hair. “Ahan! His food or your food?”“Both!” he chuckled when felt my shoulders shaking with mirth.“You keep saying his, him, he… what if it’s a daughter?”“Lycans of royal lineage usually have sons as their firstborn,” he informed me huskily, “And we don’t prefer ultrasounds too unless it’s an emergency.”In werew

    Rayna’s POV:My eyes fluttered and I felt like I was waking up from a deep sleep. With a frown, I opened my eyes and found Alexander’s face leaning on me.“Welcome back!” I felt his lips on my forehead. “Alexander!” I raised my hand to trail my fingers on his face, “Y…you … you are alive!” He turned his face to kiss my palm, “Very much. Just get well soon, so that I can punish you for what you did,” He murmured and kissed my cheek.“Punish?” my hand quickly flew to my belly when saw tears in his eyes.“He is safe, sunshine. Don’t worry. He is my son and he made it.”His image blurred when my eyes well up with tears, and he started wiping my face, “Whatever you did was quite risky, Rayna.”“I was fighting the Moon Goddess, Alex. What’s the use of these hands and the healing power when I can’t bring you back.”He leaned his cheek against my face, and I felt his tears falling on my face, “If I tell you,” He spoke, “that I’m done with taking care of this kingdom and no more want this th

    Orion’s POV:“The baby is safe,” the moment the doctor announced it, a loud cheer erupted in the hospital corridor. Till a few minutes back, everyone was concerned for Rayna and the baby’s health but now all of us were beaming with joy.“Orion,” I heard Nora behind me, “Why is Mom not coming to visit Alexander? Don’t you think she is behaving a lot weirdly, lately?”The same question kept disturbing me for the past few days. Why was Mom not paying him any visit? She always took him as her son to the point that I felt jealous. And now when I had made peace with it, she had started acting strange.My security department had arrested several people from the palace, but our investigation faced a dead end.According to the guards who were on duty, only Mom was the one who visited Alexander so that meant only one thing.Whoever this murderer was, didn’t use the main entrance.Nobody forced Mom to see Alexander in the hospital because with age she wasn’t handling a few things quite well.We

    Rayna’s POV:Right after the surgery, I was taken inside where his lifeless body was lying on the bed. His chest was wrapped in bandages, and he was kept alive by all those beeping machines.I raised my hands and there was no itching or any hue there.“What’s the matter?” I whispered to myself.“Ma’am,” a nurse spoke to me, “if you need anything then please press this button,” when she left the room, I sat on the edge of his bed instead of taking the nearby seat.“I don’t need any switches. I want nothing but you,” I said to him, without knowing if he could hear me or not.“I don’t have anyone in this world. My mother died. Father never thought of me as his own. My best friend broke up with me yesterday…” I held his hand gently, “Lola was a nutcase. Liam and Grace do love me, but they are too little to understand me. All I have got is you… and this little life growing inside me.”I slowly laid his hand on my belly, “Here. Your child, Alexander. Our child. Just when it was time to spoi

    Orion's POV:We all were gathered in the grand hall of the palace that was reserved strictly for Royal ceremonies. While standing on the stage, the incidents that happened seven years ago, kept playing in my mind like a movie.Just like that day, my family was seated in the front row, their eyes devoid of any happiness. Nora, Stella, and Ruby were observing the ceremony solemnly but there was no excitement in those eyes that was there seven years back.Yet, my mom was the same. She had pride when she saw me all ready to take the oath to become the king of the Aradia Kingdom. She was wiping her tears, and I was aware of her mental state.She must be disturbed by Alexander’s condition but had to put up the face for people’s sake because apparently a queen is supposed to stay composed in public.The most senior cleric brought the Holy book and raised it on both hands, with his head bowed in respect.I placed my right hand on the book and repeated the words said by the him,“I, Orion Iron

    Rayna’s POV:Most of my packing was done, however my basic stuff was yet to be placed in the bag. Beta Brian must be crazy to wake me up at this ungodly hour. The poor guy seemed to have multiple personality disorder.After brushing my teeth, and washing my face, I placed my leftover stuff in the bag and knocked my door loudly from inside.It was a sign to the one waiting outside that I was done. It was a way for royals to tell their servants that they were needed inside.When Brian came inside, I was busy suppressing the loud yawn. I had to squeeze my eyes several times to get rid of my sleepy head.“Can we get coffee? I’m too sleepy to walk…” This time I couldn’t control the yawn and quickly covered my mouth with my hand.“You can sleep in the car,” He muttered and then didn’t wait for my answer and left the room with my bag.“What’s the rush by the way?” I tried to catch up with his long strides, “No breakfast. No coffee. Alexander might not like it.” I said with a pout causing hi
