  Dimitri’s POV

  “Will you be able to finish the meeting?” Will asked as they started walking toward the door.

  I kept my eyes on Maddie, trying to hold it together. We decided she would go with Ellie and Will while I finished the meeting. I didn’t want her in the same room as him. I didn’t want her anywhere near him.

  It was hard as fuck, though. I wanted to keep her next to me. I wanted to make sure that she was safe. I wished that I could just tell the council members to fuck off and kill them just like I would kill my mother, but I couldn't do that.

  “I won’t kill him if that’s what you are asking,” I mumbled, making Will raise an eyebrow at me.

  I sighed and tightened my jaw.

  “Just keep Maddie safe, okay?” I said, clenching my fists. “I will finish as soon as I can and I will meet you at the training center.”

  We agreed that Ellie and Will would take Maddie to the training center. Mike was there and I knew that she would be safe with him. If I had to let her out of my sigh

      Madeline’s POV  I missed Dimitri as soon as I walked out of our office.  I worried about him as well. Would he be okay? Would he be able to finish the meeting? Maybe I should have stayed with him.  “He will be okay, Mads,” Will said softly as he wrapped an arm around my shoulders. “He will be back with you soon.”  I looked up at him and he smiled at me.  “I’m just hoping he won’t let Skol kill Kendrick,” Will added with amusement in his voice. “That would only create more work for me.”  I chuckled and shook my head at him.  “He won’t kill him,” Ellie said. “But I wouldn't be surprised if he did.”  I took a deep breath and released it slowly. He wasn’t going to kill him. He knew it would be wrong to do so.  We walked into the training center and Mike immediately looked at us.  “Honey!” he exclaimed and rushed toward me. “What are you doing here?”  He pulled me into a hug and I patted his back gently.  “Dimitri is in a meeting,” Ellie said. “We wanted to show Maddie around

      Dimitri's POV  I practically ran toward the training center. I couldn't wait to hold Maddie in my arms. I needed to spend time with her before I went back to work. I was too fucking pissed off to be productive. I needed to relax. I needed to bury myself in my mate and forget every fucking thing that man wanted to do to her.  I was the only one who could do that. I was the only one who could fuck her. I was the only one who would ever know how amazing her pussy felt wrapped around my cock. I was the only fucking one who would know how fucking amazing she sounded when she reached an orgasm.  Me. Only me.  Both Skol and I were on edge. Both of us needed to hold her. He kept trying to convince me to let him out, but I wasn’t going to do that. I wasn’t going to stand by and let him get to her first.  Fuck no. I was the one who would get to hold her before him.  ‘You are being a dick,’ Skol growled at me. ‘I can’t hold Skye. You could at least let me hold Maddie.’  ‘I will,’ I growl

      Madeline’s POV  Dimitri was a little bit calmer after we spent the night together. We didn’t get much sleep, but I wasn’t complaining. We both needed to be with each other.  “He will be here in a few minutes,” Will said as he sat on the couch.  Dimitri nodded and tightened his arm around my waist. He refused to let me go. He was on edge and he looked at everyone as they were a threat to me. I wished that there was something I could do to reassure him, but nothing seemed to work. No matter what I did or said, Dimitri kept glaring and growling at everyone.  Will told me to give him time, but I hated seeing him that upset. I wanted to help him immediately.  “What is his name?” Ellie asked.  “Oscar,” I said. “He is great. You will like him.”  Ellie smiled and gave me a small nod.  “So the fuckers want another meeting after the Alphas leave?” Will asked angrily.  Dimitri nodded. “They hinted that they were giving me time to change my mind. That will never happen and I told them t

      Unknown’s POV  The room made me sick. It always did. No matter how many times I’d been there, I had never gotten used to the smell.  It was a small room with no light. The only light we had was coming from the candles randomly scattered on the table in front of me. The walls were covered with mold and the smell of humidity was suffocating. It always made my stomach twist and turn. An occasional drip of water from an unknown source broke made me nervous. I wanted to find it and make it stop. It was annoying.  We were sitting around the table. There were six chairs, but only five of us were present. They didn’t like that at all.  “We are missing a member,” he said, looking around the table. “What happened?”  I sighed and resisted the urge to roll my eyes.  “I am working on it,” I said, tightening my jaw. “It won’t be easy.”  He laughed and shook his head. Others just kept staring at me with angry expressions on their ugly faces.  “Nothing is easy when you are taking over a thro

      Dimitri’s POV  She was a Lycan.  She was a black Lycan.  I was in shock. I could tell that Oscar asked us a question, but I couldn't hear him. I only saw his lips moving. I could only hear my blood pumping through my veins and my heart hammering against my chest.  If it was true then she was the rightful heir to the throne. If it was true then she was the most powerful wolf in existence.  If it was true then she was in bigger danger than ever.  “Alpha Dimitri?” Oscar’s voice finally reached me.  I flinched and looked at him. I tried to force my body to calm down a little so I could hear what he was saying.  “Who else knows about her ability?” Oscar asked.  I cleared my throat and shook my head.  “The four of us and the pack doctor,” I mumbled.  I glanced at Will and Ellie. Both of them were staring at Oscar with shocked expressions on their faces.  “Let’s keep it that way,” Oscar said sternly. “No one else needs to know and no one else can now. If I am right then she is…”

      Madeline’s POV  My entire body was shaking. I was in shock. I was scared.  I was in complete disbelief.  I was shocked when Oscar said that I was a Lycan, but hearing Dimitri say that I was the heir…  It was too much. The first thought that came to mind was that Dimitri would see me as a threat. He was the King. This was his Kingdom. This was his throne. He deserved to be the leader. He deserved to sit on that throne, not me.  All I wanted was my mate. I didn’t want the throne. I didn’t want to be the leader. I didn’t want to be a Lycan. I wanted Dimitri.  When he said that he didn’t see me as a threat, a huge weight was lifted off my shoulders. I felt like I was finally able to breathe again. I couldn’t stop sobbing. I was so relieved.  But I was scared as well. What did it all mean? Was that the reason Skye refused to shift? Was she protecting me from finding out that I was a Lycan?  Was it even real? Maybe Oscar was wrong. Maybe it wasn’t true.  “Oscar could be wrong,” I

      Dimitri’s POV  Every word she was was true.  She was really scared of losing me. She really needed me. I felt everything through our bond and my heart almost gave out.  Like I would ever choose anything or anyone else over her. Like I would leave her. Like I would be so fucking stupid to give up the best thing that ever happened to me.  No. I was a lot of things, but I wasn’t insane.  I knew that I had to give her what she needed. I felt her desperation. I felt her need for reassurance. I felt her burning desire and passion. I felt her need to have me.  But I knew that I couldn't fuck her here. Not because of the people who were waiting outside our office, but because I knew that I wouldn't be able to stop myself. I already knew that we would have to lock our office and spend an entire day here if I just pushed the tip of my dick inside her. I was just as desperate to reassure her as she was to be reassured.  I knew that I had to remain in control so I found another way to giv

      Dimitri’s POV  Maddie was shaking from top to bottom and I started doubting my decision to let her tell him.  “We don’t have to do it, Maddie,” I said as I rubbed her back gently. “He doesn’t have to know yet.”  She looked at me and shook her head.  “He has to know, Dimitri,” she said. “He deserves to know. I can’t keep this from him.”  I sighed and glanced at Will. He was looking at Maddie with a mixture of worry and anger on his face. I could tell that he wasn’t too happy with her decision. I wasn’t happy with it either, but I didn’t want to be a jerk. Mike was her dad and if she wanted him to know, I wasn’t going to do anything to stop her.  But I wasn’t sure about his reaction. How would he react once he found out that she was a Lycan?  I was sure that Mike would never hurt her. I would never let her tell him if there was even a small part of me that thought he was a danger to her. Mike was a lot of things and he made a lot of mistakes, but he would never hurt his daughter

      Madeline’s POV  I groaned as I turned my head to my right. Every part of my body hurt.  What the hell happened to me? Was it the pregnancy? I had no idea that your body could feel like you’d been hit by a train. I had no idea that your head could hurt like someone stabbed a knife into your temples. Would I have to go through 6 months of that?  “Hello, my little bird,” someone said softly.  The voice was both familiar and unfamiliar at the same time. I could have sworn that I had heard it before, but I had no idea where.  I was probably dreaming.  I gulped and felt around for Dimitri. I wanted to press myself closer to him. The pain would be gone as soon as I was in his arms.  I couldn’t find him, though. Did he get up already?  “I am here, little bird,” the voice said and I felt a large hand cover mine.  I didn’t feel tingles. I didn’t feel sparks. I knew Dimitri’s hand and this wasn’t it. Whose hand was that? Where was I?  My heart raced a little.  The hand squeezed mine

      William’s POV  I was pacing around the room, trying to find some fucking way to remain in focus. Dimitri hadn’t stopped whining or growling. I could tell that he was struggling and that he was in immense pain. I knew that he wouldn’t be able to do shit until he came out of the shock he was in.  But that was why he had me. I had to take over until he managed to focus back on what mattered the most.  “She was poisoned with wolfsbane,” the pack doctor said as he finished checking up on Ali. “The dose wasn’t big. She will be okay, Beta. The wolfsbane just needs to leave her body.”  I closed my eyes and took a deep breath. I almost lost it when I found her on the floor. But at least I found her. At least she was here.  Maddie was…  Gone. She was fucking gone.  “Thank you,” I mumbled as I opened my eyes and looked at my beautiful mate. “You can leave.”  The pack doctor nodded. He glanced at Dimitri before he picked up his bag and walked out of the room.  Mike and Ellie walked insi

      Dimitri’s POV  I sank my canines into another rogue’s neck, biting through all the flesh and bone. His body went limp in my mouth. I grabbed him and tossed him to the side.  I looked around me and saw my warriors and my guests fighting with the rogues. We were winning, but something about all this didn’t feel right. I had a bad feeling in my stomach ever since Will and I arrived at the border. I thought it was because I had to leave Maddie, but the more I thought about it the more I realized that wasn’t the reason.  Will? I mind-linked him as I sank my canines into another one of the rogues coming at me.  Yes? He responded, panting a little.  Something isn’t right. I mumbled. Look at how they are behaving.  A rogue came at me. He barely attacked even though he was a big wolf and he could have done some damage. He snapped his canines at me, missing my arm for only an inch. But it seemed like it was on purpose. He could have hurt me if he wanted to.  What the fuck was going on?

      Madeline’s POV  “Oh, I am so excited about tonight!” Luna Alice exclaimed. “Do you know who is working with whom?”  I smiled and shook my head.  “I believe they will decide that once the challenge starts,” I said. “That’s a part of it actually. They need to figure out how to work together to find the object hidden in the forest.”  Luna Alice nodded. “Oh, so exciting. I can’t wait to see who will win.”  “I am sure that everyone will want Alpha Theodore’s warrior on their team,” Luna Maria chuckled as she took another sip of her drink.”  Luna Alice nodded. “oh, definitely. “It will be so interesting to see how they will decide.”  I smiled at them and glanced at Dimitri. He was only a few steps away from me. He was talking to Alphas Theodore and Lincoln. I couldn’t hear what they were talking about, but Dimitri was smiling and I relaxed a little. He was too tense ever since we came to the throne room. He refused to let go of me for the first half an hour. I barely managed to conv

      Unknown’s POV  “Is everything ready?” I asked as I put my hands in my pockets.  I was looking through the window into the thick forest that surrounded my new home. It was just perfect. I couldn’t wait to build my future here. All of my dreams would come true in this place. I would finally get everything I always wanted to have. I would finally become everything I was always supposed to be.  “Yes, Alpha,” Brody said. “Everything will be over tonight.”  I smiled and took a deep breath. I was so excited and I could barely think about anything else other than finally seeing her tonight.  “What about Kendrick, Alpha?” Brody asked and my mood worsened instantly.  I fucking hated that man. He was nothing but a greedy, little rat who thought that he would get what he fucking wanted by sucking up to me.  “He is a useless piece of thrash,” I said, growling quietly. “We don’t need him.”  Brody was silent for a moment.  “Are you sure, Alpha?” he asked. “He has insight into…”  “What?” I

      Dimitri’s POV  If someone would describe me as an overprotective and an over-possessive mate I would tell them that they hadn’t seen anything yet.  Now that I knew Maddie was pregnant, I would be damned if I let her out of my sight for even one second. Especially in a situation like this when everyone was here and where there was someone who wanted to take my throne. My mate and my pup were a sure way to do that. I would give up everything for them.  “Princess,” I mumbled softly as I approached her and wrapped my arms around her from behind.  I placed a hand on her lower belly and kissed her shoulder. I was holding my entire world in my arms and that feeling was so fucking hard to describe.  “How are you feeling?” I asked her. “Are you nauseous? Are you uncomfortable?”  Maddie chuckled and shook her head.  “I am perfectly fine,” she said, placing her hand over mine. “I am only a few days pregnant. I think that the symptoms will come a bit later.”  I knew that, but I had to as

      Dimitri’s POV  Skol’s whining woke me up from my peaceful sleep. I groaned and tried to shut him out.  ‘No, Dimitri,’ he whined. ‘Let me out.’  I tried to push him back, but he wouldn’t budge.  ‘Let me out,’ he growled, trying to push me to shift. ‘Let me out.’  What the hell was wrong with him?  I groaned and opened my eyes slowly. It was still dark outside. Maddie was sleeping peacefully next to me.  What the fuck did Skol want?  ‘What the hell, Skol?’ I mumbled, pulling Maddie closer to me. ‘Let me sleep.’  ‘No, Dimitri,’ he whined again. ‘You need to let me out. I can feel him.’  Feel him? What the fuck was he talking about? Was someone here? Was someone on our floor?  I opened my eyes abruptly and looked at the door. I tensed up and prepared myself to jump out of bed. I was going to kill whoever it was. I was going to fucking rip them to pieces. Were they here to hurt Maddie? Were they here to…  ‘No, Dimitri,’ Skol interrupted my thoughts. ‘No one is here.

      Madeline’s POV  “This is just getting ridiculous,” I said, shaking my head. “This is getting out of hand. He needs to let me help him.”  Ellie sighed, crossing her arms over her chest.  “He isn’t going to do that, Maddie,” she said. “It’s dangerous.”  I looked at her and resisted the urge to roll my eyes.  “How?” I asked. “It’s not like they can tell when I read their minds. It’s not like they can feel it. I could be reading your mind right now and you wouldn’t know.”  Ellie sighed again.  “It’s not about that, Madeline,” she said, shaking her head. “It’s about what happens after. Dimitri doesn’t want to risk it and we all agree with him. It’s not worth it. He will find him without your powers.”  I furrowed my brows in confusion.  “What could happen after?” I asked. “They will want to know how we found out? As if Dimitri would want to explain that to them. They don’t have to know how we found out. We can just…”  “It’s not about that, Maddie,” Ellie interrupted me. “It’s abo

      William’s POV  I knocked on the door gently as I opened it and walked inside Dimitri’s office. Ellie and Ali were sitting on the couch. Maddie was pacing around the room.  My eyes fell on my beautiful mate and I couldn’t help but smile.  “Hi, beautiful,” I said as I reached out for her.  She blushed a little and smiled. She stood up and walked into my arms. I could feel my heart skipping a beat. I buried my nose into her hair and took a deep breath. I missed her so fucking much. It didn’t matter if I was away from her for only a minute. I missed her regardless of the time I spent away from her.  “Where is Dimitri?” Maddie asked, making me look at her.  “He is still at the party,” I said, giving her a small smile. “He will be here soon.”  Maddie nodded and continued pacing around.  “Is everything okay?” I asked worriedly.  She looked worried and uneasy.  “Everything is fine,” Elie said, giving me a small smile. “Maddie is just nervous without Dimitri.”  I narrowed my eyes s
