Brynlee's POVI lay in the arms of the man I loved, my husband and the man who would do anything for me. I felt satisfied after the intimate session we just had.I had missed him so much and each day I wanted him deep inside but I was cautious of the baby. Not until Ellen told me it was fine as long as we weren't going rough and hard.I wanted to have him and I planned to call him over but he beat me to it because he came at the right time. Unfortunately for him and me, though I hid my sexual urge, Little Elise came to disrupt our perfect moment.I could feel his anger but I need to attend to the little angel. After all the ruckus, I sent a message across through one of the guards and like speed of light, Maverick was all over me.Our love was perfect and we slept peacefully after a long time. "Good morning, buttercup"I looked sideways to see his eyes glued to my body and his rod was hardened once again. He needed me just as I need him too."Early breakfast?" I asked, smiling faintl
Brynlee's POV"Why don't you have a thirst of what you are offering her, Cassy?" I heard a voice that caused my mind to immediately drift away from the glass which I held in my hand and towards the door.It was Ellen, and a smile lit up my face the very moment I saw her. I don't know why but I was a little relieved to hear those words from her. Excited as I was, I know she must be pissed at me because as” soon as she made said those words, I watched her smile change immediately while her eyes moved round the room.I could tell that what had got me worried had also done the same to her, but unlike me who would try to make sure I wouldn't make things seem so obvious, she wasn't the same with me and definitely not cut out for it either. "What is that in the bottle?" She asked out. Her fingers were already pointing at the bottle in Cassy's hands. With exception of myself who still sat with the glass in my hand, the other two ladies who were present in the room had something against the
Cassy's POVSince the day I received that bottle from Uncle Berth, I had dropped it on the table which was positioned close to the wall. And with each morning dawning, and with each evening passing, I stared at the bottle with different thoughts of what it was.The man who had given the bottle to me had never told me what it was used for. He only urged that I used the content for just Brynlee alone.I thought of sneaking it through her drinks. But when I thought twice about it, it dawned on me that she was under intense watch, with every of her food being checked, and each of her visitors being checked as well.I had gotten a favour from her due to the forced friendship between us, and in a way I hoped never to abuse the only opportunity I had to get closer to her.But then, I had less thoughts when I realized that she had gotten so much trust inside of her for me, and it was easy to convince her that what I had in the bottle was meant for her But what words would I use to urge her t
Maverick's POVFor awhile, there hasn't been any attack upon the pack, which inwardly I was more than grateful for. And during this weeks and months of surprise attacks, we had no clue of what was the cause or what was propelling these rogue wolves to come in our direction.But there was a miracle, a clue where our minds never drifted to. The act of using dark magic to compel already mystified creatures was something way beyond our wildest imagination.It's surprising how the person captures humans just to make them go rogue. Not just ordinary rogues but infectious Lycan rogues. The thought drifted in that I might have been a victim if not for a miracle which I was yet to find out how.And we moved again, this time from finding a traitor who sent messages to the rogue wolf to finding a hidden sorcerer who was able to do this kind of act. An act forbidden yet boldly used against us.How ironic that we call ourselves the fearsome Lycan kingdom yet being controlled by mere rogues. My peo
Maverick's POVI sat down on the bare earth after the long run. Though my heartbeat had increased, and I said with heavy breathing, I couldn't help but bask in the sweetening feeling of having to show off the strength of my wolf in the dead of the night.And I think Ryker was in need of this too."What do you think the elders would do?" Ryker asked while we basked in the sunset." There would be a solution somewhere. Somehow I keep having a nagging feeling that Uncle Berth is up to no good," I replied, sighing." Do you think he is the traitor?"" Most likely, Ryker. I just want to catch him in the act. I can't just dispose him like I did ro that elder. He is royalty and a direct lineage after my father," I said, deep in thought." Do you think he is dead?" Ryker asked, making my mind wander.I knew who Ryker was referring to. My father had been missing for five years after running after some rogues. All traces of him was wiped out, not even lingering scent. Deep down, I wish he was s
Cassy's POV"Are you sure everything will work out?" My mother asked, moving closer to me with a whisper." It will work out, don't worry. I have her trust already and all that is needed is for her to take the last portion so she could leave on her own," I said, confidently.My mother was silent for a while before asking me with all seriousness." Did you say Elder Berth gave the portion to you?"" Mom, I have told you countless times already. Why would I lie to you?" I asked, getting pissed." Do you think he is trustworthy? That man wants the throne. Why do you think he would help you when it wouldn't even favor him?" She asked." Mom, why do you think he wants the throne? I think he wants power instead. I am sure he believes that if I am the Luna, I will have control over Maverick and he will have control over me. Thereby, making him powerful even more than Maverick," I argued." Are you stupid? You are not his mate, why would you have control over Maverick?" She asked me. " After
Brynlee's POVIt's been days since I started drinking the potion given to me by Cassy. It became an habit, like a drug I couldn't do without. Something inside me fight to stop it, a power greater inside forced to stop it. But then I couldn't even when I tried. It looked like a warning from an entity unknown. If I was a lycan or werewolf or any other supernatural being, I would think my inner self was on the lookout for me. It was pushing that instinct that I felt while drinking the potion. That same feeling, that which I had fought with all of my emotions since I had carried this child inside of me had returned, and this time, describing just how it was was more than impossible to attain. I wanted it all to stop as well as wanting the peace attached to it. It was as though it came to rip off my entire being, as though it was separating my innermost being from my physical body, and so it almost drove me crazy at any point it would catch up with me.This feeling at first had not reac
Brynlee's POVI would have concluded that I was still in my sleep mode when he woke me up and spoke to me. But when he had closed the door behind him, and left me all alone in the room, my eyes had opened clearly to understand he was truly here and had asked me to prepare for a surprise.A surprise with such a grim face? I honestly prayed it shouldn't be anything about a war. I wanted my child to come into a peaceful pack. Although I was eager to train, it wasn't because of a battle.At least, not anymore.I wanted to be with my child and our little family, ruling peacefully. Was that too much to ask of?I was still pondering with trembling hands and shaky lips when the door was pushed opened again. This time, it was Ellen."What's wrong? Did my brother bully you just now? Tell me and…" she said, tightening her hands into a fist." No, Ellen. It's just-its just that- tell me, Ellen, is there going to be a war?" I asked, shakily.I saw a deep frown etched on her face. Was I wrong?" Wh
Little Elsie was sent to the royal physician who conducted a test and said she was fine.Willow on the other hand wasn't having a good time."It will take her months to heal," The physician said."Mother." Brynlee sighed then kisses her forehead. The unconscious Willow was taken away and Maverick pulled her into a hug."Everything will be fine from now on," Maverick smiled then kissed her lightly on her lips.Brynlee nodded then stared at the place he was stabbed. He noticed how worried he was and he sighed."I'll be fine in a few days. I have to leave now. The palace needs some rumination." maverick annouced.Brynlee nodded and watched as he left. Days went by after that and the new palace for the Solar pack was in place.Two huge status stood magnificently at the entrance to the palace and it won't take someone a second to see that it was the Luna and her Alpha."Sir there's a report,"Loren walked inside the study room of Maverick who was going through some files.Maverick stared at
"You came?" He asked with heavy breath, staring at her as she still struggled in cutting the rope.She paused and turned towards him, staring at him with a smile on her face before she placed her palm on his face and then replied, "Of course I did. You would do same for me."He smiled at her. The pains he had felt around his hands had already ceased as soon as he could feel her hands around his skin, and for a second, his love for the lady had rekindled ten times more than what he had already felt for her.But all of the emotions were cut off just as soon as his eyes had sighted the movement of a rogue wolf approaching them at a very intense speed."You might want to be a bit faster in cutting off this rope!" He said. "Why?" She asked"Because another is coming in our direction," he said. Her eyes immediately turned backwards as she could also sight the rogue wolf running towards them both, and the tension within her spirit had immediately catapulted."Shit!" She groaned as she kept
AUTHOR'S POVHeavy breath accompanied every hasty step she took round the building. Her eyes moved round the entire building, her face beaded with sweat drops as she stood with her hands on waist, seeming lost in the thoughts of something uncertain."My lady..." A voice sounded from behind her which interrupted her train of thoughts, causing her to turn backwards in view of who had called towards her."He's not here! He's not anywhere in the building" Loren said. His eyes were squeezed at the sight of her facial reaction. Her face was squeezed, as though tears were about to fall down her face.She turned back and forth, already sniffling her nostrils with the hasty breath increasing as the seconds passed by. Her hands were on her head, her fingers rushing through her already scattered hair in thoughts of what next she could do.She searched for Maverick as soon as the strangest feeling pierced through her heart. She had started her search, but when she had seen the impossibility of he
As soon as Alexandria and Regina was taken away, hurried footsteps were heard coming towards the place they were. It was Loren and Tamara who heard about another poisoning episode."I heard about what happened. Are you both fine?" Loren rushed inside the mansion along with Tamara.Brynlee stopped with what she was doing then stared at the couple who just came in."Loren? Tamara?" Her eyes widened in surprise. Tamara stared at her, surprised then stared at Maverick who gave a short nod."You finally remember us?" She asked with watery eyes. Brynlee nodded frantically and they both held each other screaming."I thank God that everything is fine now," Loren walked towards Maverick. He took a seat on one of the sofas while he watches the ladies.He was about to say something but Maverick phone started ringing. He stared at the buzzing phone and the table."Hello?" Maverick coldly asked. He knew who the caller was and he wondered why he called?"Are you free?" Uncle Berth's voice sounded f
Author's POV"Is it because it's poison?" Willow asked and Alexandra's brows creased together."How dare you give an accusation without proof?" Alexandra thundered."You know what I hate the most? It's dramas. It's either you give her that pie like she requested or get your head on a platter for being a traitor," Brynlee coldly replied."Mr Maverick! Will you let her talk to your guest like that?!" Alexandra accused.Maverick stared at her then back at the pie. If the woman knew how much he pampers his mate, she wouldn't dare ask him that. But for the fact that they are trying to deceive Alexandra, he just had to play along. "Is it truly poisoned?" He calmly asked. Alexandra's eyes widened in disbelief. Why was Maverick suddenly believing them? Didn't he ask her over here because he wanted her help? Wasn't that why he always danced to her tune? "You don't believe me?" She feigned a sad look on her face. Maverick simply stared at her without saying a word. Alexandra's hands tightene
Willow's POVThere were so many words I wished to tell my daughter. I wish I could tell her how sorry I was to leave her alone all these years. I wish I could stop all the maltreatment she received from Alexandra after the death of her father.But I just couldn't. I didn't want to make her life more complicated than it already was. How could I tell her that she was at risk then because I broke the rule of witches?Back then, powerful witches of the royal bloodline were forbidden to mate with humans. That was how we were taught, not until I met Brynlee's father. He was so perfect that I fell in love with him.But of course, I knew the implications of what I was getting myself into. To protect him, I wanted to denounce my witchy powers. I was determined to be ordinary so I could be with Brynlee's father.I never knew those were just my wishful thinking. The man I fell in love with lied to me. I found out another woman was pregnant with his child. Filled with fury, I wanted to destroy h
Third Person POVUncle's Beth's gaze sharpened as he stared at the shadow standing at the window.There was a moment of silence before it slowly disappeared from there. "What's that?" He muttered as he quickly ran towards the window to check but no one was there. He sighed then turned towards the dressing table. He picked the bottle with serenity and placed it gently inside the drawer."Get ready to meet your demise," He chuckled lightly as he climbed the bed and slept soundly.Hours passed in the blink of an eye and it was morning already. A maid walked towards his room and knocked gently."Sir, breakfast is ready," The maid said but he simply ignored her. He wore his suit and walked past her."Tell the driver to get the car ready. I'll be there in 4 minutes," He said to the maid as he made himself a coffee. The maid nodded and dash off to relay the order. Few minutes after that, he was on his way to Maverick's mansion. It didn't take long before the car pulled into the mansion."W
Alexandra's POV"How long have you been here, willow?" I asked the frightened woman before me."It hasn't been long, ma'am. I only came here to inform you that I have to head back home now. I do not have any money with me and I don't think I can stay in this place stranded," She replied.My brows creased at her words but then she said right. She can't spend all her time here without earning from it.She needs money to survive and I don't expect to keep her around me. There are a lot of maids in here who can meet all my needs but then… I do not think they are worthy of my trust.So that's where she comes useful."Ma'am," She called out."Yes, you can stay," I gasp out then sighed."I can't stay here, ma'am. I need money," She argued."Money Is not the problem. I will pay you while you do some minor jobs for me. Let's just take it as our usual routine before I came here. I can't trust anyone in this palace and I've known you for a month now. Apart from Regina, you are the next person I
Alexandra's POV"We are here," Loren said as we entered the grandiloquent building. I couldn't help but gasp at how beautiful and luxurious it was.Is this really the place where my 'daughter' has been living? My eyes rolled at this but I still made sure to feast my eyes with everything I could see. I watched as the maids quickly take our luggages towards the Mansion and they all look so happy with their work "Woow," I gasped in disbelief. Don't tell me they are enjoying the luxury here?Hell yeah! It's better I stick to the deal and stay here forever but… I do not think the clean way is good."Ma'am, is there anything I can do? I mean, you asked me to come over leaving the house empty," a disturbing voice interrupted my inner happiness.I turned to stare dagger at the haggard looking maid I brought with me. If not that she was very good at her job and somehow, I just can't chase her too."What's that name of yours again?" I asked, making sure to sound demeaning."Willow" She said
