Chapter 79

April's POV

I woke up the next day and rubbed my eyes sleepily. I had had the weirdest dream about Dorian that he was holding me close and caressing my face as if he was my long lost lover. It felt so real. I could hear his soft voice whispering in my ears, and he told me how much he loved me and wanted me.

I shook my head and cleared my mind of the thoughts. Dorian didn't love me. He was selfish and cruel. It was just a dream; none of it was real.

I stroked my neck and found out that the stinging had disappeared, and I was feeling much better. What had happened last night?

I looked around the room to find Azura and caught sight of her sleeping on the couch at the far end of the room.

She seemed to be very comfy, and from the way she lay down, I could tell that she had barely stirred the entire time, which was odd because I could have sworn that I felt her licking my neck while I slept. It was the only logical explanation for why my neck was wet.

Maybe she did lick my

    Dorian's POV Despite giving them all the necessary instructions, I hadn’t been to the infirmary since the attack, and I was startled by the number of casualties that were there. The tent for the makeshift infirmary had been erected, and it was buzzing with activity. Nurses, doctors, and volunteers were rushing around, trying to give as much aid as possible to the sick and injured.The whole tent smelled strongly of disinfectants, and stretchers lined every wing, with dozens of people standing beside the beds of their loved ones as they received treatment. If this was what the tent looked like, then I could only imagine the situation inside the infirmary. I sighed deeply and shook my head. Ivar stood beside me, and we both continued to watch the buzz of activity."This is worse than we thought," Ivar said solemnly. "What's your next course of action going to be?"Before I could answer, I caught sight of April rushing around the infirmary, helping the nurses with stitching injuries a

    April's POV I had dashed away and hid from Dorian and his glare. From my hiding spot, close to the door of the West Wing, I could see Ivar and Dorian talking.A shiver ran down my spine, and I began to panic. Maybe he was telling Ivar to find me and bring me to him so that he could do whatever despicable things he had in his mind to me.However, after the talk, Dorian walked away. I was stunned, and I slowly crept out of my hiding spot. What was going on? Why did he leave?Unconsciously, my hand went to my neck, and I felt the bruise. There was no way I could have healed so fast. Did Dorian do something about my neck? Was he the one that..?No.I shook my head and dismissed the thoughts. It wasn't even feasible. He hated me; why would he even care to do anything about my injury? He was the one who had caused it, and I could still remember the glaring anger in his eyes when he grabbed my neck."April?"Hearing my name startled me, and I jumped in fright, and my thoughts went down the

    April's POV “What on earth is going on? Why is my father's room locked?”I tried the handle again, but it was hopeless. It was firmly shut. It only made me wonder why it was locked. No one has been here since he died. Who would want to lock it now?I exhaled, but a smile crept on my face. It didn't matter. I was going to get in one way or another. It was probably Dorian that had the room locked so that I couldn't go in. I dashed to my room and tore my drawer open.“Where is it? Where is it?"I searched the contents frantically for a while. Each second I wasted narrowed my window for looking for the pictures.Luckily, I found it and held it up to my eyes. I had planned for something like this in case I was ever locked out of Dad's room; I had taken one of the keys to his room. My smile came back and was wider than before.If Dorian really thought he could lock me out of my father's room, he had another thing coming. I hurried back to his room and jiggled the key in the lock for a wh

    Dorian's POVIt didn't take long before I reached the Royal City. I could see the tall and magnificent buildings and a golden one that towered above the rest. It didn't take a genius to know that that was the Royal Palace.As I approached the boundary of the Royal City, I was stopped by a few of the royal soldiers who questioned me on who I was and what my business was in the Royal City.Since they could sense that I was from a pack under the Empire, I gave them a random excuse of coming to trade and was granted entry easily. Although I could have gotten in by stating my identity, I didn’t want to expose myself yet. After all, Conrad was on my list of suspects regarding the attack.I gave the guards a polite nod and went on my way with a small smile on my face. If this was the type of security the Royal city had, and the rogues decided to strike them, I doubt they would put up a good resistance.I shook my head, continued to drive, and headed straight for the palace.

I could only imagine how angry he would be if he found me snooping around his things.However, after a few minutes of searching, I began to lose hope. I checked his drawer and shelf but couldn't find any pictures.I checked his wardrobe as well, and my heart swelled in excitement, but it all soon came crashing down in an instant.I found three pictures, but they didn't have Stacie in them. They were pictures of Dorian and I. I looked at pictures and remembered the good days I had with Dorian. I wanted to cry all over again, but I stopped myself and pushed back the tears. I had to find these pictures, and I had to find them fast. If there were pictures lying carelessly in here, then there had to be more. I continued to search a little more rigorously. I did find more pictures, but they were either pictures of Dorian,

I quickly arranged his room, put the pictures back and rushed out of the house as fast as I could.It was actually quite late, and he wasn't back yet. It was past 5:00 pm, and his car was still not in the compound.“Where could he be? Why wasn't he home?" I decided to go to his office and check on him. Even if I could see his car parked outside, I would know that he was okay.I walked as fast as I could down the street and looked around me frantically to check if I could see him on the road, maybe talking to someone or heading back home, but I saw nothing.The uneasiness continued to dominate my heart and mind, and I felt even more scared. I felt this darkness looming, and it felt worse and scarier with every passing minute.It took a while, but I soon made it to Dorian's office. My heart sank even further; his car wasn't parked outside. What was going on?Maybe he was in

    Chapter 86Conrad’s POVIt had been two whole days since April left the Royal City to her pack to attend to something she said was important. She promised to be back soon, but she still wasn't. I had sent her a series of messages and texts, and I had called her countless times, but there was no reply to any of them. Was she avoiding me? Did something happen to her?Maybe I was overthinking it. She promised to stay in the Royal Empire, and I believed her. I decided to send her one more text and wait for her reply. “April, you haven't returned any of my texts or calls. Is everything all right?” As soon as I pressed the send button, my aide, Jonas, walked into the room. I put my phone down and sat up straight, glaring at him from across the room."What are you doing here, Jonas?He walked towards me meekly, and my eyes were fixed on him. “We... We have feedback from the leader of the Blood Fang clan."My ears perked up as I heard the news, and excitement made my body shiver with deli

    April's POV The next morning, I jumped out of bed, and without even having a bath or at least, washing my face, I dashed up to Dorian's room. I had left the door unlocked, and I flung it open.His room was empty, and the atmosphere felt cold and gloomy like no one had slept there last night. I walked to his bed and placed the back of my palm on the sheets. I was right; they were icy cold. Dorian didn't come back home last night.I began to panic all over again, but I calmed myself down enough to rush back downstairs. I passed the kitchen and saw Susan making breakfast, and she was humming a tune. I knew that she could sense my presence, but she chose to ignore me, and I ignored her, too and hurried to the front door.I flung it open and saw that the parking lot was empty; Dorian hadn't come back at all last night. Why was he still out so late? I went back inside and headed straight to the kitchen to talk to Susan. I hated that I had to look at her face, but I had no other choice. S

She had done and redone my makeup multiple times and couldn't seem to get her hands out of my hair."Can you just stay still? Today is your wedding day, and I want you to look perfect. It's not every day that you get to marry the King of the Lycan Empire."I rolled my eyes but couldn't help the blush that spread over my cheeks.I had been looking forward to this wedding for a whole month, and finally, it was here. Lucy was at the forefront and was my wedding planner. She fussed over everything, down to the smallest detail, like what colour the flower should be on each table. She did my makeup, and it took her twenty minutes to decide what colours to use for my eyeshadow. "Hold on, your eyeliner looks a little smudged."She attempted to reapply it, but I held her hands and kept her calm. I had already seen my face in the mirror

She took the lead and grabbed my dick, lowering herself onto it and rewarding me with her warm pussy.She was tight, and the walls gripped my hard phallus. I groaned as I soon found myself in, relishing the warmth of her hot body."Fuck! You are so tight, April."She said nothing and began to move her hips back and forth. She was gentle and slow, and moans escaped from her lips.I had had sex, but never like this. She felt beautiful, and she was all mine."How do I feel, Dorian?"She made the strokes shallow and graced the tip of my cock with her juices. She threw her head back, and her lips had my name on them. I gripped the sheets tightly and enjoyed her tight body. For the first time, I felt complete. I could feel our bodies and souls becoming one."Fuck, April!"I grabbed her, and in an instant, she was beneath me. My lips sought hers as I thrust deep inside her."Ahhh

    April's POVI was in my room, my heart beating at an uneasy pace. I couldn't believe it, but it was finally all over.It had been a while since I last saw Dorian. Ever since his coronation, the council had swamped him with work. He was having Ivar help him, and everyone seemed to enjoy his leadership.Azura was on my lap, and I was stroking her. It was still shocking that I was the wolf that the prophecy foretold. I could give life to people.I had been thinking about it, which was absurd, but it made many things fall into place. It explained how I was able to save Jacob's dad and how I was able to bring Azura back when I saw her in the park.Despite all of this, I was still worried. If I had found out sooner about my powers and paid more attention to them, I could have saved the King.The thought haunted me, and the whispering from people I walked past didn't make it any better.I heard a soft knock at my door and stood to answer it. Azura followed me closely, and as soon as I opened

    April's POVI was in shock at what Conrad had just accused me of. I wasn't a witch. Why would he think that?There was a confused mumbling in the hall, and everyone looked weirdly at me.Conrad got down from the throne stand and stood menacingly before me."I know you for what you truly are. You aren't an innocent face. You are a witch. I have seen the magic you do. You bewitched me, and also, my father died because of you. I am also sure that you used your powers to falsify that letter to deceive the whole court that my father gave the letter to Dorian...""Stop! Just stop!–"I yelled loudly and was on the brink of tears."–How could you say such things about me?! You know that we have you pinned, and you are just so desperate that you want to blame someone else."I saw a devilish smirk curl his lips."You think that I am desperate?"In a split second, he grabbed Azura out of my arms and held her dangerously by the neck."I will show you how desperate I can be!"I tried to grab Azura

    Chapter 175April's POV I was in my room putting on my dress. I was dejected and sad. I couldn't believe that this was the day; I couldn't believe that Conrad was being crowned today.I sighed sadly and put on my earrings. This wasn't what I had hoped for. It should have been Dorian but now the king was dead and no one knew the truth except Dorian, Ivar, Jacob, Lucy, and I. Susan and Stacie would never spill and it was doubtful that anyone would believe us. I heard the door open and I turned to see Dorian in a handsome blue suit, standing at the doorway. He had a weak smile on his face and all I could do was return it. I was too sad to speak.He closed the door behind him and walked up to me."You look beautiful." He slipped his arms around my waist, through the back of my open dress, and planted a soft kiss on my neck.My body began to burn with desire and passion. My moans were breathy and sensual."Dorian..."His name was soft and sweet on my lips as his lips teased my neck."Yo

I sat there patiently watching the security footage, waiting for Stacie and Susan to come outside.I wasn't sure how long I waited, but the bitter cold didn't make me shiver in the least; I had experienced much worse than this.The snow was still falling and the garden was covered in a blanket of white. I sat still, waiting and watching.Finally, they began to leave. They left the villa and stepped outside. Susan looked quite livid but Stacie was smiling like the disgusting bitch that she was. She and her mother had made everyone's lives a misery and they had shown no remorse for it.Stacie clutched a coat close to her body and walked with her mother who was in a heavy cloak that swept the snowy ground. They left the compound and took a right. I put my phone in my pocket and followed them, keeping a safe distance behind them.They walked fo

    Chapter 173April's POVI was up early in the morning. My eyes stung, and my teeth clattered. I realised that the bedclothes had fallen off me and had landed on the floor. Azura was curled tightly on the floor's covers and purring in satisfaction. I looked outside the window and saw that fresh snow was falling. It looked like a wonderland. I only wondered how long it would remain that way once Conrad became the king.I still couldn't believe that he was being crowned in two days. So much was happening in my head that I couldn't keep track of it.I heard a soft knock at my door but was too dizzy to answer. I heard the door click, and someone walked in.I heard heavy boots thudding towards me, and when I looked up, my blood ran cold. "Conrad?!"Before I could breathe a word, he grabbed me by my neck and slammed me onto the bed."C... Conrad... I...I can't breathe."His eyes were a furious electric blue, and his teeth were gritted in anger as he stared down at me."You! This is all you

    Dorian's POVI woke up alone in my room to a bitter cold. I looked out my window and saw snow falling freshly and blanketing the pack's ground in a graceful white covering.I spent the night alone, as April had to go and prepare for today's funeral and pick out a dress. I had a wonderful time with her yesterday. My heart fluttered each time I remembered the kisses I stole and how she giggled. I never thought that I could be this happy.I sat up and finally had time to think about the fight alone. There was so much that had happened that I hadn't been able to process in April's presence, like the fact that Geras' blood tasted and smelled a bit like Conrad's and how my injuries were able to heal so fast and even bring me back from the dead because I was almost sure that I had kicked the bucket.I spent unproductive minutes trying to dissect it all, and soon, I finally gave up. I was just happy that this was over. I owed it to my birth father. He would have wanted me to keep the pack saf

    April's POVI had been by Dorian's side all day, insisting that he lay in bed. I was happy that no one had bothered us. He watched me as I dashed around the room, looking for things to make him more comfortable.He had told me that he was okay, but I could not fully believe him. He has healed up too fast for any normal wolf. What if something in his body wasn't attached properly? What if he wasn't fully healed?I had gotten a cold towel to dab his forehead in case he got a headache, but he stopped me, grabbed me, and pulled me into bed with him."Dorian, stop playing around. You need to rest."He pinned me to the bed, and I found myself looking up at his piercing green eyes."Apri, you have been doting on me since the fight yesterday. I told that I'm alright."He growled softly in my ear and kissed my earlobe softly.I groaned softly at the feel of his soft lip. They trailed down my neck to my cheeks and finally rested on my lips.He kissed me deeply and wrapped his arms around me. I
