ELVA'S POVI had neither been able to communicate with Ruya nor shift since I got hit by the dark werewolf. It felt like he had suddenly disappeared.Three days after Lu had finally decided to come out, Mother called the two of us for a meeting in the throne room.The dark werewolf had captured Selena when he came, and no one knew why. No one knew who the dark werewolf was or the reason why he had killed Father and taken Selena with him.I pushed the door open and walked in. The throne room was vacant. But Mum and Lucius joined soon and then the door was sealed off."You two must be wondering why I called you together today," Mum said."A meeting at a time like this isn't out of the ordinary," Lu answered Mum, "it is one of the things that are meant to happen.""I guess you might be right," she said. "However, if you're thinking that I called you here today for us to find a way to have revenge on the enemy who killed your father, then you're totally wrong."Mum could sense the taste f
ELVA'S POV"I'm the one who has a problem with you standing there to address us," one of the servants raised her hand and spoke.I gazed at her with a bit of surprise in my eyes. It wasn't like I hadn't expected that such would happen after they had all witnessed me being banished from the kingdom. But I wasn't in the mood to entertain any revolution."What problem do you have with me standing here to address you people?" I asked her.She was snappy."You were banished from the kingdom. So, it's only natural that you have no right to call us together, let alone, give us orders," she said. The other began to murmur at this and I quickly cautioned her."Don't say that when you don't know what goes on in the palace," I said to her."We all know. The queen only brought you back because the king was bedridden," she said, "if he was in good health back then, he wouldn't even let you cross the gates of our kingdom. You're not the first to be banished from this kingdom. We've seen other peopl
ELVA'S POVThe announcement horn was blown and it reached the castle all the way from the entrance gate as usual. The Alpha King had arrived.I slid into my shoes. I had been waiting eagerly for his arrival. I bathed early in the morning when the crickets were still whistling, and wore my dress. And I had been seated in the room since that time till daybreak.I didn't rush to the mirror for a final check before heading out. And even when my stomach growled, I didn't think of going to have breakfast because it was already too late.I briskly moved on, descending the staircase with quick light steps.Once I got to the front of the castle, I met with the soldiers there who were waiting for me. Mum and the chief of warriors were already there, standing side by side. Lu was coming out of his room at the same time as me.Soon, everyone who was needed there assembled and then we waited for the guards who were escorting the Alpha King to the castle.The distance from inside the kingdom to the
ELVA'S POV "What you did last night is unforgivable, but I'll pardon you," I said to the Alpha King in the morning as I came to his room to wake him up. "Our mission is more important than anything now, so I'll let it slide for now." I still couldn't believe that he had the audacity to attempt sleeping with me. "Yes. Our mission is more important than any other thing now," he grumbled. He stood up from the bed, his tight white underwear revealing the length of his member which was I couldn't tell why it was looking excited that early morning. "I was only trying to know the level of relationship between you two," he said, "throughout our discussion yesterday, you never mentioned that you were in love with my brother." "That excuse is very lame," I said to him, turning my eyes away from him as he dressed up, "it was disrespectful of you to try to go into the same place your brother has gone. If you really wanted to know my relationship with him, you should have asked and I'd have
DARIAN'S POV I opened my eyes and the incoherent memories began to flash into my head. I started to remember everything from that day when I was just some meters away from the pack. I had wanted to visit my brother before I got attacked by a dark werewolf. I could remember how he easily gave me a blow that made me throw up and lose consciousness immediately. Where was I now? The last thing I remembered seeing back then was the dry leaves on the floor of the woods. Where was this place now? As my eyes opened, I began to register everything around me in my head. The ceiling, the wall, the door facing my foot, the color of the bedsheet I laid on. But the next thing I saw was someone bending over me. I sat up immediately and my head clashed with that person's head. "Ouch!" I heard a female groan. She bent down immediately and covered her face in pain. "Sorry," I quickly apologized on the realization that it was a lady. I tried to jump down the bed to help when I suddenly felt my
ELVA'S POV The North wind blew violently as we made our way to the West from the East. The apprentice priestess' magic orb had directed us to the West. But there was an encroaching storm in the West which was possibly triggered by the violent North wind. And usually during storms, there were raiders waiting for travelers on the way. Although we were many in number, we couldn't tell what lay ahead of us, so the Alpha King suggested we waited for the storm out before delving into the West. However, I lacked the patience to do that. "We are getting closer," reported the apprentice priestess, "a few more kilometers and we'll be where Princess Selena is." I turned to the Alpha King, "We need to keep moving. There's no big deal about the storm." "No. We're camping here!" He pointed to a cave side, "Our horses will be terrified to move under the storm. And if we get attacked by natives, it may not turn out well for us." "Are you that scared?" I asked, laughing as my voice vanished into
DARIAN'S POV The four ladies carried me from the room to a door which one of them opened and we walked into a steaming room. There was a tub which was filled with lathered water. I had been doing what Bulma advised me to do; observing them. And from what I had observed so far, they weren't werewolves but possessed strength that could rival a werewolf's. As for other physical feats, I was yet to see. "I like the way you easily understand your situation," one of them said to me, "To find calm and calculated men these days seems very difficult." "Do you also understand your own situation?" I asked her. "Yes," she answered, "if I don't bathe you and present you to the master in time, his anger will be upon me." I turned my face to the side with disappointment. It seemed they had no idea that they were dealing with an immortal. However, being mortal or immortal was no guarantee that I'd escape this hell of a place I'd found myself. "Please, get into the tub," one of them said to me
SELENA'S POV "Thanks for bringing him, devas," I said to the four women who had brought Darian into the castle. "You can leave now." "What did you call them?" Darian asked as he pushed past the ladies. The boldness he displayed even when he was at a point where he was meant to show fear was stomach upsetting. "They're devas, special female servants of my father," I said. "Your father? Are we in the Haelstrom kingdom?" He asked me, his eyes clearly spelling confusion. "Don't tell me you think that the Lycan king is my father," I said to him, "It should have been clear from the color of my hair that I wasn't his daughter." "Whoa! This is new to me," Darian said. "Uhm… So, you're saying your father has his own castle as well. Then, why have you been living in the Haelstrom kingdom?" "My father is a brother to the Lycan king and this is a forte he had been protecting for several years for the Haelstrom kingdom," I let him know. But I stopped when I remembered that he was still sta
ELVA'S POVI was feeling very weak but surprised that the wolfsbane didn't affect me much. Almost as if I was going to die, I longed for Darian to come save me. I couldn't believe that I had been such a big fool who believed Nolan. I let him take such a big advantage on me.I heard noises like someone was fighting outside. I couldn't move, just sat there completely glued to the chair. My heart was pounding in my chest right now.The door suddenly burst open revealing Nolan. " You? What do you want?" I yelled at him.He didn't answer my question but just ran over to my side and untied me. " Let go of me, let go!"He gripped my hand tight. " We don't have much time and your stupid lover boy isn't here yet so I had to hurry back to get my men and save you," he explained.I didn't even have much strength. "Why isn't the wolfsbane affecting you?" He inquired." Because I'm a silver wolf," I answered him." Ohh," he trailed, nodding his head. " We better get going, I heard Haelstrom is unde
DARIAN'S POVElva hasn't come down and it's been quite some time now but yet I haven't even seen a glimpse of her. It was driving me insane because the palace was getting all filled up with Elva nowhere to be seen.I couldn't take it anymore and ran up to her room hoping that she would be there. I arrived and didn't even see Elva there. Her dress was still on top of the bed so that means she didn't go far.I checked the bathroom and closet but she was nowhere to be seen. My heart was pounding wondering where the hell she could have gone. I knew that she was so nervous but I never expected her to run away just like that.I should have tried harder. I didn't comfort her well and now she's gone, it's entirely my fault that she's gone. It's all my fault.I tried not to jump to any conclusions thinking that she probably wouldn't have gone far. I wanted to tell my beta but decided to just make sure that I could find her before jumping to conclusions.I called her phone multiple times but sh
ELVA's POVToday was D-day. I didn't feel any different rather I felt like nothing. I looked at my dress with different thoughts running through my mind, I didn't even know what to do or if I would ever be able to be a good Luna.I was sure that Darian didn't worry whether or not I was still with but it still troubled me daily and it's been very hard not to think about it. My body was somehow trying to correspond with my current situation.My face was filled with lots of unwritten expressions. I should have gotten ready but I couldn't bring myself to. I tried so hard not to give in to my thoughts but rather it was more disturbing to my mind, making my headache.I heard a knock on my door. I turned to go answer it. I opened it and saw Darian standing there looking charming as ever with such a handsome look. He was dressed in a normal black tuxedo and his head tied perfectly." You look charming," I complimented.He chuckled a bit and made a move to enter but I just blocked him. " This
NOLAN'S POVThe thought of having to lose my position weakened me. I couldn't visualize myself not being the alpha, I had to find a way to get Elva back at least to trick the people even if it's just for a little while.I thought that maybe I could try to get to them by using the nice guy stuff on them. I even tried making a great deal with Darian but that annoying asshole didn't even give a shit or cared about it.I thought that he would succumb to it once I promised to break the bond but it didn't help one bit. Instead, it made him more adamant and brutal and bluntly refused right to my face.I had to think of something and I had to get on with a plan fast otherwise all this would be gone. I noticed someone present in the room, I looked up at him only to find out that it was just a guard. The last thing I needed right now was bad news." What do you want?"" Good afternoon alpha," he greeted. " You have a guest," he told me.I raised my head, wondering who the guest could be. I knew
DARIAN'S POVI knew that the guy could never be nice. I knew that he was up to something which was definitely for his benefit. It was easy to grasp that this was just all of his plan and a way to make him let go of Elva so he could finally get what he's been longing for.I didn't know whether or not to tell Elva about it trying not to get her stressed out. We've only been back at his pack for a week now but a lot had been going on, I didn't want to stress her much, especially with the fact that her coronation was coming up.I shrugged off the thought and decided to go for a swim. I changed into just my boxers and jumped into the pool at once. It was just some kind of way for me to relax my body and let out all of my inner stress.Nolan could come ahead and fool anyone but he's most definitely not going to fool me because I could easily see right through his plan. It was more than clear that this was all of his motive and plan.I decided in my mind that I would try my best to make sure
DARIAN'S POVThe dead weight of what I had gotten myself into was mortifying. I didn't mean to lash out at Fabian just like that in front of everyone but I had just had more than enough from him and wanted nothing more but to just put him back in his place.I heard a knock on my door. I immediately composed myself and had to clear my throat before attending to the person at the door."It's me, Logan," I heard him say.I heaved a big sigh and drastically opened the door with different emotions popping up in me. " What do you want?" I asked, not really in the mood to see him" I came here to see you," he replied.I further opened the door, giving him more access to my room. He entered my room. " Sit," I offered him a chair not far from the couch.He sat down on the chair looming around the room. I could easily tell that he was hesitant to talk probably because of how intimidating I was sometimes and now he's debating in his mind." Are you going to speak or should I chase you out?" I thr
DARIAN'S POV" Are you kidding me? So you're telling me that he wants the throne instead?" Elva asked after I narrated the entire incident to her.I nodded in response and my eyes widened with shock. She tried eating something but right at the same time, no words came out of her mouth. She just kept quiet for a minute." So, what are your plans now?" She finally spoke up.I didn't even know whether or not I had a plan but something was for sure and it was making things more and more intense for me. My head was stuck with lots of mess." He just thinks that I'm not capable enough but I'll make sure to prove to him that it's beyond what he thinks," I said.She looked at me with a warm smile on her face as my beta came in with some sort of worried look on his face. I prayed and hoped that it wasn't any sort of trouble because I had to deal with more than enough." Good evening alpha Darian," he greeted, with a slight bow.I immediately ushered him back up, trying not to stress him much s
ELVA'S POV I seldom sat at the window side, counting all the days it's been without Ruya. He was finally gone and that empty feeling was back there in me once again, it was a feeling of pain and pure relief.My new wolf — Stephano wasn't a pain in the ass like Ruya and that was exactly what I liked about her. She may seem rude but rather she was lively and we got along well in such a way that even I couldn't describe it.I got off my feet and left the room deciding to go for a walk round the garden. I've been indoors for quite some time now and now I've subdued the fact that all I needed was just a little outing to get me going.I decided to let off the guards but they weren't too far off from me either. I just had to have them with me in case of anything and speaking of trouble, that was when I noticed Nolan not too far away.I made sure to stay at a safe distance where it would be easy to alarm the guards in case anything happened. I thought of walking over to him to try to get to
FABIAN’S POV"What do you mean she's a silver wolf?" I yelled out loud.I couldn't have been more furious with this discovery that had just been made. I can't believe that the more I thought that I was closer to achieving my goal, the more it was becoming useless for me.The girl whose name was Celia shrieked as I thundered loudly at her. My heart was totally pierced right now with this new maud discovery wishing I had known earlier which was why I made her go as a spy to the palace.She told me that some maids got a clue of what she was doing and just what she was up to. I couldn't let anyone discover what we've been up to so I made sure that she found a way to get rid of them.I had always kept a good reputation and couldn't risk having Darian suspecting me otherwise that would just ruin my entire plan and she would be the cause of it. I couldn't go back now so if she was planning anything she had better back down otherwise I would kill her with my own bare hands.She didn't even re
