Anya's POV

“No, we need to teach her a lesson that she will not forget,” one girl, who had kept quiet all along, said as she stepped forward. As soon as she said this, my eyes settled on her, and I stood on alert, hoping they didn’t have the thought of physically hurting me, which I wouldn’t allow.

The girl took a few steps toward me, swaying her hips as she did. She stopped walking when she was merely an inch away from me; our gaze met, and her breath fanned my face. She smirked and abruptly shoved me.

Ariana and her minions broke out laughing as I fell to the floor and groaned. My ankle twisted, and I was hardly able to stand up.

My eyes became fuzzy, lumps formed in my throat, and I attempted to gulp down the painful lumps, which was impossible. I know I shouldn't show weakness, but I couldn't help myself with five of them ganging up on me.

My gaze was still fixed on the floor, tears pooling in my eyes, threatening to fall and liberate me from the rage and anguish I felt within, I

    Abel’s POVI couldn't believe what almost transpired between me and Anya; my head was jumbled with numerous questions, and I felt a sudden headache. Everything around us seemed to vanish at that moment, leaving only me and Anya to wallow in lust.I desperately wanted to kiss her, and the look she gave me didn't help. It felt like she was summoning me to kiss her, but I'm glad we could stop in time. I wanted to talk to Anya and apologise, but she quickly walked away, which, I believed, was best for all of us.One thing was sure about what transpired between me and Anya: I was certain I was insanely attracted to her, but I wasn’t sure about a mate bond. It almost felt like it.It felt like what was written in those books.I could tell that Anya had felt it, too. That had to be why she rushed away so quickly.However, I was glad that the kiss didn’t happen. With Kern’s interest and Andrei’s weird protectiveness over her, there was no telling what would happen, but I knew that the kiss wo

    Andrei’s POV“Come in,” I grumbled, wondering who was here after my work hours. I had less than three hours to get some rest before I started work again.I stepped out from the restroom with a white towel draped low around my waist, exposing my abs and v-line. I was holding another towel that I used to wipe away the moisture on my body.The door was pushed open, and Abel entered the room, his glance falling on me, and I arched my brows. I dropped the towel I was holding while Abel settled on one of the sofas."I was going to come see you after I got some rest. Did you hear about the attack?" The attack on the other side must have been why he came here.However, Abel furrowed his brows, looking perplexed.“What attack?” he asked, confirming my guess that he didn’t hear anything. “I was busy training with Kern and just got back,” he added.“I guess that makes sense. One of our outskirts pack was attacked.” Abel shot up from his seat, clearly not expecting it.“Who gave them the guts?” H

    Anya's POVAfter getting the hang of their schedule, I got up early today, and I'm glad that I finally got a proper sleep since I got here. Not meeting Andrei all through yesterday had made my day much better. Of course, there was that scene with Ariana; that was no new thing, and it didn’t come with an ache of having your mate hate you.The kitchen was empty, but I could see the signs that it had been used this morning as I took some eggs and juice from the fridge.I make a breakfast of scrambled eggs and downed my juice before I stand up and leave.“Lady Anya,” someone called as I walked out of the kitchen, and I turned to face the person who had called me. It was a petite lady with a massive smile on her face whom I hadn't seen before; I was surprised she knew my name because I hadn't interacted with anyone apart from the brothers, Ariana, and her minions.She stopped walking when she was a few steps away from me, her smile still on her face; it was awkward since I didn't know what

    Andrei’s POVIt took every darn nerve in my body not to draw her closer and kiss her. Anya was too attractive, and it was becoming difficult for me to concentrate, I gulped down the lumps that were forming in my throat, and Anya groaned softly."Okay, I'm done. There is nothing else I can do. I get it, I comprehend it. You can shut me up inside this room and possibly starve me to death since I am your plaything, and no other man should look at me. There is really no reason to let me move around freely," Anya said as she looked away.I felt a little pang of guilt as I saw the resigned look on her face.I carefully let go of her hand, and she slumped on the floor, adjusting her robe and her gaze falling to the floor, I felt horrible when I saw her give up so easily. Because of the mate bond, I have little to no control over how I feel about Anya.I took a step back and watched her calmly, feeling pity for her. I'm not sure if I push her a little, she will be the kind of Luna I want, if

    Anya’s POVI yawned tiredly as I walked around the palace outside my chamber. I was bored and decided to look for something that could interest me. My movements came to a standstill in front of a massive entrance; I moved closer to the door and noticed two soldiers on standby."Palace's library." I grinned as I read the term etched on the top of the door, hoping to acquire a book to help with my boredom.I entered the library, my eyes darting around, my lips curving into a smile as I read the titles of the neatly stacked books until a book caught my sight. "How to Bond with Your Wolf," I read aloud and pulled the book out of the other books.I dusted the book and returned to my room, opening the first page and reading quietly. The book talks about how running helps unite with one's wolf and makes them bond stronger. Ozel and I have never really had a bonding time together, and this looks intriguing. I would surely love to connect with her."Wow! I had no idea about this."I whispered a

    Anya’s POV My heart was racing because I didn't know what to say to Abel, and the way he tilted his head at me made me feel guilty when I wasn't guilty of any crime. "Speak up, Anya! Where are you coming from at this early hour of the morning?" Abel inquired again, and I fiddled with my fingers. I wasn't certain whether I should tell him the truth or not, so I thought about what those men talked about and concluded it was best if I told him the truth because those men surely talked about the kingdom. I took a big breath before speaking."I woke up early and decided to go for a run," I explained, and Abel nodded, his hard gaze softening and his hands that were on his hips slumped beside him. “It took you long enough to say it, do you think I was going to scold you for going out for a run?” Abel asked, and I shook my head. “Of course not. I actually heard something, and I wasn’t sure how to tell you about it” I said, piquing his interest, he took a few steps closer to me immediatel

    Andrei's POVDespite moving at the fastest speed possible, the trip to the attacked pack seemed long, and I glanced at my watch now and then.“Has the nearest medical team arrived there?” I asked Joe, my driver and personal assistant.“No, they should arrive at the same time as us.”I frowned, dissatisfied with that report. Since they had to save lives, why were they moving at such speed?“When we get back, discuss with Andrei and move the more efficient medical teams to the outskirts areas,” they had more chances of being attacked even if we were going to double on security one more time.Joe nodded and then stepped on the accelerator. After working with me for more than eight years, he knew me as well as Abel and could pick how anxious I was about getting there.Thirty minutes later, the car finally stopped in front of the broken pack’s gate, and my nose scrunched up at the heavy stench of blood in the air.Those bastards.Without seeing the damage inside the pack, just by the smell

    ANDREI's POVI walked into the palace hurriedly. Using the mind link, I called for a meeting between Abel, Kern, Sam, Anya, and me. I needed to know what was happening. Just ten minutes later, all five of us were gathered. I looked into their faces. "What is going on?" I asked. They all looked towards Anya. I turned to her. "So? What is going on?". I asked in an inpatient tone. I hate my interactions with her because they made me feel many emotions I didn't want to feel. Now was neither the time nor the place to think about it, though, so I pushed all of it to the back of my mind and tried to focus on what was happening here. "Well, I went for a run and saw two men. They were covered in dark cloaks. They mentioned wanting to get into some next-stage plan but that the brothers were too smart. I knew that they were talking about you three. I tried to leave, but they saw me. I managed to escape them because I was in my wolf form, so they did not see me. It seems that they had a hand

    "Young lady....I just want you to know that you are one of the most powerful healers that I have met in my life. You are definitely the most powerful. And those powers have recently been activated in you. This happens usually when you mate with your mate. Tell me, did you recently mate wiry your mate?" She asked me. I nodded my head shyly when she asked me this. "Actually....we are all her mates. This is something that we are confused about. Is it possible for someone to have more than one mates?" Abel asked. The moon goddess took my palm and started to read it. She had a worried look on her face but then the look relaxed after a few seconds. "Yes. Although it is rare, some healers do have more than one mates. In fact, I have only met one other healer and she only had two mates you have three mates. Since you have mated with all of them, the powers that were sealed inside of you have been activated now. You really need to be careful with what you use your powers for. You have the

    ANYAI sat in the living room as Kern handed me a cup of hot tea. Andrei and Abel were both sitting by my side. I had just gone through a traumatic experience and I was still trying to recover from it."Do you want to talk about what happened?" Abel asked me. I nodded my head. I was still scared but I knew that they were worried about me. I had to talk to them so that they at least won't be so worried. "You don't have to tell us if you aren't fit do do it Anya. You have been through something that was clearly very traumatic. You dont have to say anything that you don't want to" Kern comforted me. I shook my head. I wanted to tell them. "I can talk about it. I want to talk about it. Actually, yesterday, after we had sex, I woke up feeling this heat all over my body. I couldn't understand what was going on. Lydia called me just then and I told her what was going on. She told me to come meet her and that she'd be able to help me. She is a healer so I trusted her and went with her. T

    ANDREI"Have you found out where she is yet?" I asked Abel as I paced my study. Abel shook his head. "The men I had asked to tail Callum yesterday are still trying to find out where he is. I am sure they are going to have information for me soon!" Abel said. "Am I supposed to just wait here for them to tell us where she is?! What if something happens to her before then? Are you going to take responsibility for it Abel?" I asked him. "You really need to calm down Andrei. You are not the only one who is worried about her. I am also very worried about her wellbeing but we are not going to find her just because you are behaving like this! Are you done looking at the CCTV cameras Kern?" Abel asked. I looked over Kern who was seated in front of a computer looking at security footages. "Yes. I got something. Last night, she had left the house. Someone was actually waiting to pick her up at the front gate yesterday. She seemed to know this person!" Kern said. "Why would Anya leave the h

    ANYA"Hey Lucy" I said as I picked up the phone. "How are you doing?" She asked me in a cheerful voice.."I.....I am not okay at all. I feel....I feel a itching on my body. It just gets worse!" I said. I had no idea why I told her..I just had a feeling that she'd be able to help me since the was a healer. "Hmmm....that's strange. Do you think that you can come out? I'll take a look at you and see if I can help you" Lucy said. "Oh. Let me just wake Andrei and the rest....""Andrei? Is that your mate?! You can't tell him that you're coming to see me! Remember that I am running away from most Alphas! I can't let any of them see me!" She said to me. "Oh....okay! I am going to come alone. I feel so terrible!" I said. "I'll wait for you" Lucy said and ended the call. I quickly picked up a coat and left the house. As I left, I could not help but wonder how she knew that Andrei was an Alpha. I never told her this..Did Callum tell her?!.....I woke up feeling a lot better than I had f

    ANYA"I am not talking about Callum. I am going to deal with him myself. I am talking about you and Kern. What exactly is going on between you both?" Andrei asked me as he gave me and Kern a suspicious look. My heart sank to my chest when I heard this. Did he figure out something? Or did Kern tell him himself? I knew that we were going to have to come clean to both of them at some point but I was not ready for it yet at all. I had wanted to avoid it for as much as possible. "I don't know what you are talking about. What do you think is going on?" I asked him back, trying to deflate the question but Andrei looked like he was not going to believe me. "Do you think that I am going to fall for that? I can see that there's something going on between both of you. All three of you are keeping something from me. Are you going to tell me the truth or do you want me to find out myself?" He asked me. I looked over at Kern, wanting to know if he had told Andrei anything but he just shook hi

    ANDREI"Nothing is going on between us!! Why are you lying?!" Anya asked Callum. He just flashed her a smile. "Don't tell me you have forgotten how we met? Or if you have forgotten, don't tell me that you've forgotten how I got you flowers yesterday. You were holding them so tight yesterday!" He said to her. Anya blushed. But I could tell that she was just embarrassed by him. Callum knew how to be shameless! "You forced me to take them! I did not want anything to do with you or your flowers! You are the one who forced me to take them even though I did not want to! Also, I already threw them away! Stop trying to cause a misunderstanding here!" Anya said. "What? Are you worried that your mate will reject you because of me? You know, this is why I said you are not a good match for him. It would be best if you came to me. He's so cold, and he doesn't know how to treat women right. Why should you be with him? It would be best if you came to me. I'll make sure that you'll never lack any

  • Slaved To The Royal Lycans   132. Completely Crazy

    ANYAI stood still as I glared at Callum. All through the night, I had been haunted by him coming to see me out of nowhere, and I had hoped that he would lose interest in me and not bother me again. But it seemed that my prayers were not answered yesterday because he was the first person I met outside of school immediately as I got out of glasses today. It appeared he had been waiting for me for a long time. He smiled at me as I glared at him even more hatefully. "What do you think you are doing here? What do you hope to gain from all of this?" I asked him. "I think I already told you yesterday, Anya. I like you and want us to explore what is going on between us. I feel like we could make a good mash as long as you can stop being biased against me and give me a fair chance," he said"I think that you have gone completely crazy because that is the only explanation for what is going on here. There is nothing, and I mean absolutely nothing going on between us. Anything you think is

    ANDREII sat in the car as Abel drove me to Anya's school. I looked forward to singing, especially since I had not seen her in a long time. I hoped that she would be ready to accept me and our relationship when I saw her. I had done a lot of thinking when she was away, and I realised that I could not let go of her even if it meant I had to share with my brother. She was my mate first, and I did not want to give up on her at all. "So besides that bastard, Callum, who else did Kern say was bothering Anya?" I asked Abel. "He said that a classmate of hers had been picking on her. It had been going on for a long time, even before she got to know us, and it just got worse in the past few weeks because of a guy she likes to be interested in, Anya. A few days ago, a classmate of ours and our friend kidnapped Anya and tried to kill her. However, Kern had stepped in on time, and both girls are already in police custody and awaiting jail now. Their fathers are mighty men in the town, and Kern

    ANYA"Why are you laughing? Do you not want to let her go? She doesn't deserve this, you know!" I yelled at Callum. "Is that what she told you?" He asked me. "Yes. That is what she told me! You need to give her some space. She's a good person who was forced to do bad things for you. I know you feel like no one can stop what you want to do and that you are invincible, but you need to let her go, or else there will be consequences!" I said to him. "You know....you are so cute that it's funny!" He said and burst out laughing again."Why are you laughing?! I am being serious here!" I said. Suddenly, Callum stopped laughing as he looked at me seriously. "You really should stop believing people so blindly. You have no idea what you're getting yourself into. And you'll get hurt if you aren't smart about the people you trust!" He said to me. "What are you talking about?" I asked. Something told me that he was earnest this time. But I didn't think that I trusted people unquestioningly.
