Aurora's POVI blinked severally when his eyes stared into mine, my green orbs met his and I pulled away as a shiver ran down my spine. "Let me go" I glared at him, attempting to pull my hands but he would budge. "You should learn to speak respectfully if you are thinking of ruling over the people of Arizona one day" he countered, making me vexed." Now, I have heard you, what exactly do you think you are doing here in the first place? It is unheard of, at least I know the princess shouldn't be found alone with a stranger, so can you leave?" " You met me here, didn't you? Besides, what guarantee does anyone have that you aren't spoiled already?" His gaze running over me," Are you even serious?" I glared at him angrily. " Get out" he let go of my arm unexpectedly, and I had to steady myself so as not to hit the ground. "Were you sent by the moon goddess to test my patience on this?" Being the first stranger that I had come in contact with who didn't seem to give two cents about who
Sebastian POV The week that followed was uneventful, and although I could feel daggers pointed at me most times while I was walking or carrying on my duty, I dissuaded it because there was practically nothing that my father would do to me, at least not under the watchful eyes of my mother who still could feel something amiss. Pathetic. "Alpha'' one of the maids who were walking past bowed her head to the ground, showing ample skin, and the shirt she had on showed an amount of flesh in between her boobs than it normally should but I didn't pick offense. Not when I had made plans of beding her already. "How are you doing?" I winked at her hoping she got the message, and I smiled in satisfaction when she blushed, making my heart hitch a bit. "Fine, Alpha Sebastian" she answered sweetly, still averting her gaze to the ground. I walked past her making sure my hands grazed hers while doing so. If all went well, I would be expecting her in my bed by midnight, when the pack was still and
Laden's POVI punched until I couldn't feel my hands anymore, not now, envisioning Sebastian's face as I hit on the bag repeatedly, how could he? How could he say that to me? How could he say he had better things to do than to search for Aurora, my sister? His mate?I had implored the help of Karen, pleading with him to talk to Sebastian since they have been friends for a while now and there was a possibility that Sebastian would listen to what he has to say, but I have been given the same answer. "Aurora is fine, you heard the ancestral goddess," he had answered before tapping my shoulders gently, and walking past me. It had taken all of me not to go back and punch Sebastian in his face, it had taken everything for me not to hurt him. "Arrggghhh" I screamed out, frustration, crumbling to the ground. My heart was shattered and I couldn't think alright, I couldn't think straight, my life was a mess and I didn't know why the moon goddess has forsaken us. My parents had become a shado
Sebastian's POV. Moans filled the air as I rammed my way into her, forcing her to take all of me. She was bent over the balcony, the same place I had always wanted to try out with Aurora but she was conservative and wouldn't want to try it out with me. "You are such a good girl" I dug my fingers around her waist, eliciting pleasure from each moan that came from her mouth. The slap of my naked skin against hers as I took her from behind, made me yank her hair, she wanted me and now, I was going to give her me. I couldn't remember the last time I had a woman, it seemed like forever and I wanted to go on and on inside her moist wall until she couldn't walk again. I wanted to ravish her. My hands wandered to her perky breasts immediately I had loosened my grip on her hair, and I squeezed on her nipples until she screamed and screamed but I wanted more, I wanted more than what she was giving me, I wanted to feel it in her tone, pleasure mixed with pain. I wanted her to give herself to m
Sebastian POVThe blazing sun filtered into the room, causing me to wake up, I took a glance at my room which was neatly arranged and I leaned back. I had slept so well that one wouldn't be able to tell if I was the cause of the dead body. "Shit" I muttered in shock when I stared at the clock. I have just a few minutes remaining to prepare before addressing the people in my pack and I didn't want to keep them waiting. Not on the first day.I rushed into the bathroom, taking a shower before rushing out again. My gaze wandered off to the clock occasionally and I hissed as I fumbled through my closet searching for something to wear. For a certain reason, I found myself suddenly missing Aurora. She was the one who was always in charge of my clothes. She picked out the perfect outfit for me before she left and would come early in the morning just so she could knot my tie for me. "Get that thought out of your mind, Sebastian," I slapped my cheek while staring at the mirror. " You have
Sebastian POV" We do not know Alpha, all we heard was a scream and we just got here" one of the guards answered me, making me frown. My father held my mother close to himself, not wanting to let her see such a sight and somehow, although it was supposed to make me feel great, I couldn't not when I knew all that my father had been up to. "Send for the doctor, I want her examined" I said firmly, before walking toward the maid who had been brought off the water. I scrunched my nose when the odor hit me, her body was swollen and one could see different scars on her body, scars that I knew I haven't placed there so seeing them got me suspicious. The maid might have done something else or probably annoyed someone else who had done that to her. The first culprit who came to my mind was the maid who was sitting by the side of the pool, the same one who had glared at me. I knew she knew something and I was going to make sure she died with whatever secret she had. I have forgotten about ho
Aurora's POVI sat in front of the mirror, mesmerized by the wonders that had been done to my face. It took a lot of convincing for me to sit and look this pretty. I guess I will get used to it soon.Same way, I was left with no choice but to accept Ramon as my tutor after I had watched him fight with all others and he had beaten them all to a pulp. Although he was making me vexed, I guessed that I could cope with him after the first week. The training was tedious but awkward. I preferred it to the etiquette classes, in which I was being taught how to be the perfect princess, something which I never wanted to do but I had no other choice than to. "Aurora," my mother's voice resonated softly as she pushed the door open. I gasped out in shock when her eyes turned misty at the sight of me in the princess ball gown that I was in. "You look…" I could tell that she was trying to find the right word and it made me laugh. "Exquisite" she added before grabbing both of my hands in hers. "Yo
Zeeb's POV"Arrggghhh" I growled, frustrated, sweeping off all that was on top of the table. How dare Alberta do this to me? How could my brother dissuade my warnings? Did they take me for a fool now that their daughter was back?"That insolent thing," I cursed out loud, until this very day, she hasn't come to see me nor has she come out of that palace. She was kept locked in just like a precious jewel that wasn't given access to anyone and it got me curious what exactly was the reason?Was Alberta afraid that she would go missing again? She was a big girl already and all that it would take is someone, a lover to pull her out, love is strong and only love could make her go against her parent's wishes but now, how was that going to be possible when I have been restricted from going to the palace because of what I had told Alberta the last time? Different thoughts ran through my mind but still, I couldn't get one that fit what I was searching for. "Father" the door to the study was pu
Aurora's POV" How long are they going to take before they get here?" I asked Ramon anxiously, he had Lilith on his shoulder and once again, I was being relegated to the background. Lilith had stolen her father from me and I was left gawking at the love they had. " They should be here soon, it wouldn't take more than ten minutes, be patient, " he turned around, a smile on his face as he leaned forward before planting a kiss on my baby bump.We had been arguing nonstop about how I wanted a boy but he kept insisting he wanted a girl just like Lilith and that he was fine with just girls. I placed a hand on my forehead, it seemed to be aching all of a sudden." Wifey" I felt a hand wrapped around my waist, and I let out a grunt when he kept massaging it gently. " Thank you" I was grateful for his help, it wasn't easy being a royal consort and still being good in bed, I had to keep commending his efforts at all times. "It is nothing, come" I sat on the couch, this wasn't easy, giving b
Aurora's POVI collapsed on the bed immediately after I got in not wanting anyone who would distract me. It hasn't been easy and although I had kept saying this was my honeymoon and I wasn't going to work, I just couldn't stop myself from working, with the work piling up, Ramon was forced to step in and assist me but still, I couldn't bring myself to make him do everything. " Wifey" he whispered as he pushed the door open. I quickly turned my face to the side, not wanting to engage in whatever he was going to say. Dude kept doing the same thing, making love to me until I couldn't feel my legs anymore. I squeezed my eyes tightly, not wanting him to catch on. " Are you sleeping?" His face hovered over mine for a while and I could see that he was pouting his lip, was he disappointed? I had never taken him for that, a pang of pain shot through me, I had thought that he would be persistent and would flip me over but I think that I had wished for too much. He leaned closer, his lips pl
Aurora's POV" Princess please you have to sit tight and you aren't supposed to see the royal consort before getting married" I banged my fist on the table, gritting my teeth angrily." Who made such rules besides why can't I meet him? It isn't like I haven't seen all that is to be seen already so why are you guys insisting that I stay here?" " Language Aurora" my mother shunned from behind me, I pouted my lips gently, while fixing my gaze on her."Mother, but that is the truth, why can't I see Ramon? I need to see him because I cannot think and I am so anxious, how exactly will I know that he isn't planning to run away from the marriage when he is being called a royal consort? Gosh, who placed these rules in the first place?" I was vexed, deeply vexed, if I could see whoever it was, I was going to make sure he or she paid for it. "It is a bad omen to see your husband before your marriage and it has been there for centuries and so tell me why exactly do you intend to jinx it?" " H
Aurora's POVI stared at the door, where my mother stepped in from, with a smile on her face. " If you are here to advise me to have a change of mind, I wouldn't so please leave" I pointed at the door to her, not wanting to engage in any small talk. " I wouldn't be doing that but I want to talk to you, don't you think you are behaving so rashly? Do you think you would be able to cope with the guilt if you kill them all, you know, it isn't too late for you to have a change of heart,"I exhaled deeply before fixing my gaze on her. " I wouldn't be saving your brother, Mother, I am going to make sure I watch as he is being plunged into the sea, writhing in pain and I am going to stand there giving instructions to make him suffer because I do not give mercy"She gasped out, looking stunned. "Tell me you didn't just say that, how exactly are you going to sleep knowing that you caused the death of countless people?""Mother" I screamed out at her, it wasn't my intention to do so but I had
Aurora's POVI glanced around, staring at everyone who was in the dungeon, a smile cascading down my face as I made my way down. " Princess," the guards gasped out in shock when they saw me step into the dungeon. " You don't have to do that" I chided them, taking a step backward when he intended to walk closer to me, " I just want to know how my prisoners are doing, I need you to bring two of them out"I pointed at the cell that held Zeeb and his son, "On second thought, don't" I stopped them. If I was going to do this then, I wanted him to see how futile all of his efforts were going to be. I wanted to see the raw desire to hurt Karen in his eyes but he wouldn't be able to. " Hello there Roselyn, I hope you are having a great day in there because I am and I am going to make sure you pay, you are going to pay for everything, mark my words" The smile on my face faded as soon as it had come on it when I saw what Roselyn was doing. "Any funny play, anyone and you all will go down
Aurora's POV" Father" I shut my eyes tightly when he pulled me closer to himself, his lips touching my forehead as tears clouded his eyes," For a moment, princess, I thought that I had lost it all, I thought that everything I had in my life was going, starting from the most precious human in my life, how exactly did you cope? Who assisted you? I do not know why but I feel I owe the person a lot, and I have to reciprocate, I have to thank the person for saving you, my priceless jewel" I smiled faintly at what he had just said, " You do not have to do that, he does not want anything unless…."" Here he is" Somehow I had felt his presence from miles away as he ran down, he had been screaming my name, and searching for me through the mind link,I watched as my father's face contorted into a surprised one, definitely, I could tell he wasn't expecting the person to be Ramon, he seemed to be the last person on his mind, especially after he had been treated unfairly. "Your majesty" Ramon
Alberta's POV"Julius, did you hear that? The sound of the gun, does that mean we are going to be killed? But my brother said that he wouldn't, what is happening?"" Your brother this…your brother that, how can you still call someone who is that heartless your brother, someone who joined Zeeb to kill our child, our only heir, how exactly?''I didn't know what answer I was going to give, I was drained, all of my strength seemed to have been sapped and I couldn't think properly. The fact that I was locked in here didn't help matters, all of the maids who came in here with our food kept saying one thing. That the mansion was devoid of humans as most people had been driven away. What were they trying to achieve by that? First, I couldn't bring myself to cry anymore, I had cried ceaselessly until I couldn't anymore, it had been months since Aurora went missing and my life had become dark, just the way it was before she left and now, I was in here anticipating death with the man I love. "
Aurora's POV"Home'' was the first word that slipped out of my lips immediately after I stepped onto the shores of Arizona. The gentle air that hit my skin reminded me of how good it was to be back and how a lot of lives depended on me.Still dressed in my clothes from earlier, I slipped on a gun after making sure it was filled with bullets. "Are you sure you still recall the tunnel?" Ramon asked, yet again. I get that perhaps he was paranoid and wanted everything to work out fine but he was beginning to get on my nerves already. "Yes" I answered him again, how could I ever forget? The lives of men…hundreds of them depended on me and I wasn't going to risk them, although we had decided to catch them off guard. There was nothing that would assure that so I had to be careful with my dealings."Come on'' he raised his hands, giving the signal we had agreed we would use. "Come here," I ambled toward him, fixing my eyes on him. His hands slinked on my clothes, his eyes holding mine. "
Aurora's POVI clenched my hands into a fist while staring at her, there was no way I would be able to refuse that I wasn't the one especially with me standing by her side, and I could see that she was trying to hold herself from touching me. "Aurora" she gulped in, holding her hands tightly. I stood still, blinking back the tears that threatened to drop because I couldn't let them drop, it would show how much of a weakling I was which wouldn't be great now. I placed a hand over my face, covering my face with the veil, it had lifted while I was getting out of the car and that was how she had seen me, was I joking? I knew that she would have been able to tell it was me from a distance, I had spent more than a decade of my life with her so it was expected. "I will be right there Aurora, all you have to do is scream for me if you need me and I will come running over" he blew a kiss at me, before walking away.Left to face my past all alone, I took in a sharp intake of breath, trying t
