EMMELINE

We had managed to convince him to trust us. I could tell it was hard for him to wrap his head around the truth. I could see the wariness in his eyes, the way his body remained tense even after we explained everything. When I told him who I really was—Princess Emmeline, daughter of King Carrington—his whole body had stiffened like I’d struck him.

For a long moment, he just stared at me, his expression unreadable. Then, as if the weight of the world had finally caught up to him, his shoulders slumped, and he let out a breath.

“You’re… You’re really her?” His voice was hoarse.

I nodded. “I swear it.”

His wife had burst into tears the moment the words left my mouth. She covered her face with her hands, sobbing uncontrollably, her body shaking. The little girl clutched at her mother’s dress, wide-eyed, confused, and scared.

“She’s alive… The princess is alive…” the woman whispered through her sobs.

Darius and I had led them back to the cabin we rented for the night. It wasn’t muc

    EMMELINEThe entire ride back to Darius’s pack, I couldn’t sit still.My hands were clammy, my stomach twisted in knots, and no matter how much I tried to tell myself that everything would be fine, my nerves refused to settle.Darius sat beside me in the truck, arms crossed, legs stretched out like he didn’t have a single worry in the world. Meanwhile, my heart was hammering so hard I thought I might throw up.“You need to relax,” he murmured, tilting his head toward me. “Nobody’s going to know they’re in the truck.”I exhaled sharply. “I know.”“But?”I clenched my jaw. “But I can’t shake this feeling.”Darius sighed, shaking his head. “You’re doing everything right, Emmeline.”I shot him a dry look. “Oh yeah? Then why does it feel like something could go horribly wrong at any second?”He reached over, taking my hand and squeezing it. “Because you care.”I stared at our hands. His grip was warm, solid. A comfort I didn’t want to admit I needed.“This is the first time I’ve done somet

    DARIUS“It’s not the same killer.” I kept my voice level, my face a mask. No way I was letting these two clowns see me sweat.Crock narrowed his eyes. “Is that so? And what makes you so sure, Darius?”“Evidence,” I said simply. “I’ve been investigating, like I promised. Turns out your trackers weren’t exactly saints.”Mathias scoffed. “Evidence? What evidence? Care to enlighten us?”“Gladly.” I snapped my fingers at one of my guards. “Go get the Beta. And tell him to bring the uh… guest.”The guard scurried off. I let the silence hang heavy, watching the two alphas fidget. It was almost amusing. Almost.My beta, Dawson, strode in a few minutes later, a skinny, nervous-looking man trailing behind him.“Here’s our evidence.” I gestured towards the pair. “Or rather, he is. We have more, but let's hear what our friend here has to say.”Dawson cleared his throat. “During our investigation, we discovered that the trackers… well, they’d made quite a few enemies. Especially in the Red Cave Pa

    EMMELINEI was going to lose my damn mind.Heat had come early, and it was worse than I ever remembered. My skin felt too tight, my body on fire, and no matter how much I tossed and turned, nothing helped.Cara, my wolf, wasn’t making things any easier. Go to him. You need him. You want him.“No, I don’t,” I muttered, shoving my face into my pillow.Liar.I moaned, gripping the sheets as another wave of need hit me. Fuck. I was already burning up, and I hadn’t even touched myself yet. My body was betraying me, my mind drowning in nothing but thoughts of him.Darius.I squeezed my thighs together, but it only made it worse. My body craved him like an addict needing a fix. Cara kept clawing at me, desperate for his scent, his touch, him.I let out a strangled groan, kicking the blankets off. They felt suffocating, and yet without them, the cool air against my skin made it worse.I was so screwed.I tried to distract myself. Counting. Deep breathing. Thinking of the ugliest, most unsexy

    EMMELINEI woke up nestled in Darius’s arms, warm and content. A blush crept up my neck and I felt shy. It wasn't like this was the first time we'd woken up like this, but still…For a moment, I let myself just exist there, tangled up with him, my body sore in all the best ways.Then I made the mistake of looking up.He was watching me. Smirking."Ugh," I groaned, burying my face against his chest. "You’re a creep. How long have you been awake?""Long enough to appreciate the view," he teased, his voice a low, lazy rumble.I swatted his arm. "That’s disturbing."His grin widened. "No, it’s not. It’s endearing.""Says the man literally watching me drool in my sleep.""You don’t drool," he murmured, brushing a finger along my jaw. "But you do make these little sighing noises when you’re dreaming. Kind of adorable.”"So you like watching me sleep?" I asked, peeking up at him through my lashes.He simply nodded, his expression turning serious.I narrowed my eyes at him. "You are way too i

    DARIUSMy shoes clicked against the marble floor, each step echoing my growing unease. What the hell was Great Aunt Mildred doing here? The woman was a walking, talking disaster zone, and the last thing I needed was her anywhere near Emmeline.I rounded the corner into the foyer and there she was—she dressed like she’d raided a clown’s closet. And next to her… a girl. Young. Like, really young.“Darius!” Mildred shrieked, engulfing me in a hug that smelled strongly of lavender and mothballs. “My boy! It’s been such a long time!”Long time? We saw each other last year at Christmas. I swear, the woman’s memory is shorter than my… patience.“When I saw you last, you were just a boy!” she continued, squeezing me tighter. I could feel my ribs protesting.I peeled her off me, forcing a smile. "Aunt Mildred. This is… a surprise."She beamed, all wrinkles and rouge. "Isn't it? And this is Olivia, my granddaughter.”Olivia offered a shy smile and a small "Hello." She looked like she’d just

    DARIUSI glared at Great Aunt Mildred across the dining table, feeling my patience thinning with every second.The old woman had insisted on this dinner, and now I was stuck here, watching her chew like she was savoring my suffering.I had no idea what Emmeline was up to, but I hoped she was enjoying her freedom while I was trapped here. The longer Mildred was here, the more my anxiousness would grow. "This will soon be a regular thing," Aunt Mildred announced, dabbing her lips with a napkin. "Family dinners. Just like the good old days."I coughed. "We were never a family that had dinners together.""Nonsense." She waved her hand dismissively. "And once you're married, you'll appreciate them even more."I set my fork down and met her gaze. "I'm not getting married."Silence.Mildred looked like I'd just told her I planned to live in a cave and survive on tree bark.Then came the voice I’d been trying to ignore all night."Then why do you have a concubine?"I snapped my head toward O

    EMMELINEMy breath hitched. My blood ran cold. Darius’s great-aunt, that wrinkled prune of a woman, stared at me like I was a particularly interesting bug. “Something about her looks… different,” she croaked, her old hoarse. Different how? My heart raced. I’d masked my scent like usual. Had she sniffed me out, like that old doctor?Fear coiled in my gut. My heart hammered against my ribs. Was my Lycan secret about to blow up in my face?“Different? She looks exactly the same,” Darius snapped, stepping in front of me like a protective wall. Thank the Goddess for his quick retort. The old woman shook her head, her eyes still boring into me. She actually reached out a hand, trying to touch my face. I flinched back, disgust twisting my features. "Her features are… sharper,” the aunt insisted. “And she smells… peculiar."Seriously? Peculiar? What did Lycans smell like to these people anyway? Wet dog? Burnt toast? I desperately hoped I smelled more like the scent I had practical

    EMMELINEUgh. This day started off on the wrong freakin' foot and just kept nosediving. I woke up starving, ready to demolish a stack of pancakes, only to find my breakfast…gone. Vanished. Poof.Either eaten or tossed in the trash. Nobody seemed to know, or care, which. The empty plate just sat there mocking me.My first suspect? Olivia, of course. That girl has been a thorn in my side since she arrived.I marched right up to her, not even bothering to put on a fake smile. “Did you have anything to do with my missing breakfast?”She gave me this condescending sneer, the kind that makes you want to punch a wall. “Please, Molly. You’re way too irrelevant for me to waste my time on.”The urge to slap that smirk off her face was strong. But I held back. For now. “Fine,” I muttered, heading to the kitchen. “More for me, then.” I told the cook to whip me up something else, trying to ignore the simmering rage in my belly.But things just escalated. Hours later, I went to grab my clothes

    EMMELINE★☆★☆★☆The rough hands of the lycan guards practically threw me inside. I landed hard on the cold stone floor, the air knocked right out of my lungs. I gasped, trying to suck in some air, my chest heaving like I’d run a marathon. Which, technically, I kind of had.“Emmeline! What the hell happened?” Sylas was instantly beside me, his strong hands gripping my shoulders, pulling me upright. His face was etched with worry, his eyes searching mine.It took a few ragged breaths, but I finally managed to choke out the words. “Michael… that son of a bitch… he exposed me. They know. They’re coming.” The last part came out in a shaky whisper, the reality of it all crashing down on me.Sylas’s grip tightened for a second, and his expression went dark, like a storm cloud rolling in. He lifted me as if I weighed nothing, despite the adrenaline still coursing through me, and gently placed me on a nearby chair. My legs felt like jelly, and I was still trembling.“I knew this day would come

    EMMELINE★☆★☆★☆This night had gone straight to hell. One moment, I was in a grand banquet hall, surrounded by laughter and music, and the next? I was running for my damn life through the dark forest, my lungs burning and my heart hammering against my ribs like a war drum.I had no shoes on now, no time to think, just raw survival instincts screaming at me to move faster. My dress was torn, catching on branches as I pushed through, but I didn’t stop. I couldn’t."FIND HER!" a voice roared behind me. "DON’T LET HER ESCAPE, DAMN IT!"Escape. That was the only thing on my mind. The forest was a maze of trees and shadows, every direction, every turn looking exactly like the last. I had no freaking clue where I was going, just a blind, desperate hope that I’d stumble across the Lycans estate before they caught me.I had to make it to the estate, not just to save myself but to also warn them. Sylas would know what to do. He had to. If I didn’t make it there… I don’t even want to imagine wha

    EMMELINE’S POV★★★★★★★★★Ugh, all that fancy food and forced smiles were starting to give me a stomach ache…I needed a quick escape to the ladies' room before I painted the pristine white tablecloth with my dinner. I told Darius I needed to pee – a totally believable excuse, right? – and slipped out of the banquet hall. The bathroom was down the hall, and I was just heading back, feeling a little bit better, when I noticed the music had stopped. Weird. Then I heard voices coming from a side room. Something felt… off. Like a really bad vibe was radiating from behind that closed door. My feet just stopped. I knew that voice. Michael’s. That slimy bastard.My heart started hammering against my ribs. How in the actual hell did he find out? I crept closer, my hands shaking. Peeking through the slightly ajar door, I saw a bunch of Alphas crammed in there, including those two absolute digusting devils, Alpha Crock and Alpha Mathias. Darius was standing tall in the middle of them, facing Mic

    DARIUS☆☆☆☆☆☆Man, I couldn't stop the stupid grin plastered on my face if I tried. Sitting here in the meeting room with Dawson my beta, going over this damn invitation list for the banquet, every name we ticked off just made me feel lighter. Like a weight I didn't even know I was carrying had finally been lifted.“Think we’ve got everyone important, boss?” Dawson asked, his pen hovering over the last few names. He looked up at me, a small smile playing on his lips. He knew how happy I was. Everyone did. It was probably radiating off me like heat from a damn furnace.“Yeah, man, looks good,” I said, leaning back in my chair. “Anyone we missed, they can just… well, they can kick themselves later for not being on the list for the party of the century.” I chuckled, and Dawson joined in. It felt good, this easy laughter. It felt right.“Party of the century, huh?” Dawson repeated, shaking his head with a grin. “You’re really going all out, aren’t you?”“Damn right, I am!” I exclaimed, my

    EMMELINE☆☆☆☆☆Ugh, I woke up feeling like a truck had run me over. My eyes felt heavy, and my body just wanted to stay glued to the mattress. I reached out my hand, but the other side of the bed was cold. Darius was already gone for his meeting. Of course, Mr. Important always had somewhere to be. I dragged myself out of bed and headed for the bathroom. A long, hot bath sounded like the only thing that could possibly make me feel human again.After my bath, I went to the dining room, and breakfast was already waiting for me. The usual spread – fruits, some toast, and that fancy tea Darius insisted on. I wasn’t really hungry, but I managed to eat a little something. I was feeling restless, cooped up in the house. So, I decided to take a short stroll in the gardens. The flowers were blooming, and the air was fresh. It was actually quite nice for a bit.But then, halfway through my walk, a wave of nausea hit me like a punch to the gut. I suddenly felt this urge to throw up, and before I

    EMMELINE☆☆☆☆☆☆I had to see Sylas. Like, really needed to. After everything that went down, him helping find me and all, it just felt right to go over to his Estate. Plus, you know, gotta keep things moving, right? Can’t just sit around feeling rescued all day.So I headed over to the other Estate. It's not like it's a huge ride or anything. And when I got there, Sylas was, well, Sylas.He turned to me, and there was this look in his eyes – kinda serious, but also…relieved? “Emmeline,” he said, that deep voice of his, “Good to see you again.”“Hey,” I replied, stepping inside. “Thanks again for, you know… finding me. Seriously. Thank you.” I wanted to make sure he knew how much it meant. It wasn't just about being found, it was him, Sylas, who had played a big role in it.He just gave a slight nod, that kind that tells you he’s not one for big speeches. “It is my duty. To protect all lycans. Especially you, Emmeline. Of course, I would do it again. It is my job, after all.”Okay, th

    EMMELINE☆☆☆☆☆☆When my eyes finally fluttered open, the first thing that hit me wasn't the light, or any pain, but the complete and utter silence. It was… different. Not like that silence, you know? The kind that used to press down on me, suffocate me while I was trapped in Michael’s dungeon. Nope, this was a peaceful quiet. A quiet that whispered, “It’s over, Em. The crazy is done.” The war… yeah, the war was really done. It still felt kinda unreal, like I was waiting for the other shoe to drop, for some new nightmare to start. But for now, just quiet.I shifted a little under the soft sheets, and my body groaned in protest. Man, I was still so damn sore. Felt like I’d been run over by a cartload of bricks, not just, you know, everything. But even with the aches, it wasn’t a bad sore. It was like… my body was just tired from fighting, from surviving. A strong arm suddenly snaked around my waist, pulling me back against a warm, solid chest. Darius. Of course.“You’re awake,” he mur

    EMMELINE’S POV☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆Oh Moon Goddess, this is getting seriously messed up. I scrambled back, doing this weird crab walk thing as I crawled away from Darius and Michael who were going at it like wild dogs. My heart was hammering in my chest like a damn drum solo. Dust and dirt were flying everywhere, and I could hear the grunts and the clangs of their blades. I felt useless, just huddled there while they were practically trying to kill each other.My eyes darted around, searching for… I don't know, anything? Something to help? My fingers brushed against something hard and sharp on the ground. Yes! My hand closed around a rock, jagged and rough. It wasn't much, but it was better than freaking nothing. My hand was shaking so bad I almost dropped the damn thing. "Come on, Emmeline, get it together," I whispered to myself, even though I felt like I was about to lose my lunch right then and there.Then, bam! Michael, that psycho, he slammed Darius down. My breath hitched. Darius wa

What the hell was happening now?For a second, confusion clouded my mind…had I imagined it? But then another shot rang out, followed by shouting.Michael cursed under his breath. The slimy bastard jumped to his feet and rushed to the door. “Stay here,” he ordered, though it was clear he meant it for his gorilla-sized guards, not me.But even through the fear, something else struck me like a jolt of lightning. Darius. It had to be him. Who else would be crazy enough…or brave enough, to come barging in here with guns blazing?My breath hitched. Darius was here.A spark of hope ignited in my chest. Hope, mixed with an exhausted but undeniable, ‘Are you kidding me?’“Do not take your eyes off her,” Michael barked before slipping out, slamming the door behind him.He thought I wouldn’t try to escape?He underestimated
