/Selene’s POV/“Enough, you've revealed almost all the information.” He snarled while coming into my view and I paled immediately.“You? You’re the one behind it? The killings and all?” I stuttered while glaring at him with hatred in my bones wishing nothing else than to leap over and detach his head from his neck. “Surprise!! How long did it take you to realize that? See, after all, I still outsmarted you.” Alexander the Beta of the blood moon Pack smiled while taunting me and stalking me with his predatory move. i“Fuck, I knew it. Your crescent-shaped necklace gave it out, but I thought maybe I could be mistaken, since Eros trusted you with his life blindly, vowing you would die for him, I wonder how disheartening it would be when he finds out that you are the one planning to dethrone him.” I conveyed, hoping he would miraculously tell me that he was compelled to do it.“You see, it’s always Eros, he has always been favoured. Always a step ahead, why not me!!” He yelled, after real
/Selene's POV/“Alexander Lucian knew if he wanted to take the throne, he must work himself into an influential position which he did by becoming the friend of the king and bringing influential and powerful people to the fold early by promising them more power.” I reasoned.“There’s more to this, I know who killed your parents.” He revealed.“Oh, you are the one? You framed it on Eros then?” I asked, but all I got from the son of a bitch was a humourless chuckle.“I haven't completed my story yet, I feel like I should tell you about it, maybe the moon goddess would understand since you are one of her favourites.” He smiled.“I told you that my mother and I were given to the ruler of a small town when I was very small, which means Eros did not recognize me, so I made a deal with the ruler, to let me go and serve the king. When Eros killed our father, he was lonely because all the princes that played together with him were killed by our father out of rage.” “I knew as a young person who
/Eros’s POV/I have been waiting and pacing around for Phoebe to come back, it's been almost three hours since she left and she hasn't shown up since then nor replied to my calls or messages.“You have access to the camera, you can tune in and see what's happening, I can't help but feel as if something is wrong also,” Ares commented making me stroll to the CCTV control room, I tuned in the cameras in the prison to check what was happening, although from an angle I could see Maria bloodied body slumped on the chair, which means she had done her magic on her but I can't get a hold of Phoebe.“Have you seen any trace of the Gamma? When did she finish dealing with the prisoner? How many hours has it been?” I mind-linked the prison guards.“We haven't seen her come outside yet since when she entered inside.” They replied making me fear.“Did you both leave your post for a minute? ToMaybe take a leak or something?” I asked trying to keep my tone neutral and calm while I rewind the footage
/Eros’s POV/“Alpha, Cain Maxwell from the Hyacinth Pack is demanding to see you.” The border patrol informed me.“Hyacinth pack? I think I’ve heard of the Pack. Ask him what is his intentions for coming here.” I commanded while trying to remember where I heard the name of that Pack.“He said he knows about the missing people’s whereabouts.” He mind-linked me.“Please direct him or maybe guide him to the Packhouse, I don’t want him wandering about and I need to see him as soon as possible, there is another guard to stay in position right?” I asked.“Yes your Majesty, don’t worry about it and we are on our way already to the pack.” He assured.“What’s the problem? Have they gotten a hold or trace of them?” Arielle questioned while hope glimmering in her hazel orbs.“Unfortunately no, but I think there is someone who might know where they are and he is on their way. Alexander would not be so stupid to take to somewhere where we can easily get a hold of her, don’t you think?” I looked a
/Selene’s POV/“I guess he made a very big mistake killing your parents because apparently, the current Alpha is not his son since the both of you were mated.”“Wait, so what you mean is that Cain Maxwell is my biological father? And he killed my mother and the man that was a father he could never be because he doesn’t want the secret that I’m his daughter to be leaked?” I asked while rage seeped under my skin and I tried to control myself not to lose control.“Yes little bird, Cain Maxwell is your father, he is also a subject of mine. I guess it runs in the blood to be greedy for a position, especially since he’s ready to throw his daughter under the bus one more time, but not willingly this time.” He chuckled while I tried to regulate my breath.“You have to plan this successfully and with a calm head, if not you will not get to see our pups again. Don’t act on your anger, Remember Alexandria’s teachings.” Athena warned, this time with a stronger voice making me know that the effect
/Selene's POV/“Oh, the fun just started. Welcome our King.” I smiled sinisterly while fixating my gaze on Alexander’s face which paled immediately as he detected his scent.“Oh goodness, Thank God you're safe. I can see that you have everything handled, although a little reassurance could have worked. Oh, that fucker broke our mate bond.” He chuckled darkly, I swear I could feel his rage seeping underneath my skin but I shook it off and concentrated on him, it was like he had not given up.“I can see the whole family is here, or Apollo and Luna's grandfather is also here, say hi to him,” Alexander commented, I glared at him.“Shut the fuck up, don't think you would do unscathed, I would not be able to breathe in another lungful of fresh air if you escape alive. So there is no way you'd be doing that.” I warned.“Oh, I think another person would love to do the honour so bad, I made a promise to her already that she would be the one to kill him.”He sighed dejectedly, it had only been
/Eros’s POV/I howled painfully while looking at my mate’s limp body with her arms flailing and her legs, her white furry body had quickly morphed into olive-tanned skin and the same shade of her fur remained on her head.I howled again while Arielle looked at me pitifully, I could sense her very weak body and pulse, but I hoped she would be able to fight and pull it through, we have a lot of things to talk about and she has a lot of explanations, I'm pretty mad at her for keeping all the secrets but all that can wait till she wakes up.“She will be fine, she's a fighter. I'm sure she will put it through, after all, she's the Queen and the gamma of the Blood Moon Pack, the Luna of the Pack and the Queen of the werewolf Kingdom, the only Silver-eyed hybrid of our era. I'm sure nobody can take her position and she knows better than to leave her throne vacant.” Arielle whispered while looking at Phoebe with adoration and disbelief.“Let us get out of this place,” I commanded gruffly, feel
/Eros’s POV/“Mate?? No that can't be.” Arielle whispered but I could sense the happiness rolling out of her skin.It’s been three days now, I’ve been getting endless calls from Selene’s godmother, but she still hasn’t woken up yet, she’s not showing any signs of waking up. I know she would not want me to slack off so I decided to continue my work from home, I just hoped she would open her eyes and wake up so I could embrace her.As for Liam and Arielle, I can see Liam is trying to understand that she just lost her mate so he’s taking baby steps with her not to overwhelm her, I thought she was going to lose her shit but the moon goddess is always one step ahead. I have never thought about their compatibility, but now that I look at them and the bond, I feel like both of them are meant to be together from the beginning.“At least, you’ve got a beta and a gamma. You can start running the pack business. Is it not the right time for you to check up on your business? Is that human assistan
