Lexi's p.o.v I sat happily next to Whitney and Leomord. A few days had easily gone by and they were filled with joy and fun. Every day I had a clean dress to wear and we ate well. My hair was fixed by Whitney while Leomord gave me Candy once I had behaved well. I stopped going to the hut and chose to be with them. I even slept in a tent with Whitney, while Leomord slept outside to guard us. "Put those shoes on." Leomord instructed softly with a smile. "Okay." I answered happily then picked them up and stood up. "Leo, a word." Whitney said and went behind the tent. "Give us a minute." He whispered to me then followed her as I frowned. Since yesterday Whitney had been acting strange. Most times she would tell me her epic war stories and at times she would teach me how to take good care of myself, but yesterday she was quietly looking at me with a very sad expression on her face. Whenever I asked her if something was wrong, she laughed and brushed me off easily. Whatever she
Whitney's p.o.vI walked calmly beside Leo with my hand linked to his. Lexi was behind us following quietly. The pack house was now showing and I could feel light movements ahead."I'm sure the warriors have sensed our presence. They are obviously getting ready to defend our territory from you guys." I said in a low tone."This is going to be fun." Leo whispered with a smirk when we saw the warriors gathering in front of the pack house with some weapons in their hands."I know right." I answered then glanced at Lexi and gave her an assuring smile.I wanted her to be calm and confident in front of the warriors, because they hated weak she-wolves."Is that you general?" Ibuk asked in disbelief."Are you fucking blind?" I spat seriously as some of the warriors sighed in relief."It's definitely her." August said as Ibuk shook his head. When his eyes went to my linked hand, he frowned then growled loudly."Who the fuck is he Whitney!" He asked on top of his voice angrily.I felt Leo tig
Leomord's p.o.v"Which room do you like?" Whitney asked Lexi with a smile after our house tour."Yours." She answered, making me frown.Why the hell was she choosing her room when she was told to choose between all fifteen rooms!. Did she not want us to spend some intimate time together?. How the fuck was I going to mate with my own mate when she was getting glued to her!."Leo, stop." Tey whispered softly."Stop what?" I asked seriously."That expression on your face is scary." She answered.I looked at Lexi and noticed how terrified she was."I'm sorry." I apologized softly."I choose the third room which is next to yours Whitney." She said as I sighed in relief."Lexi, don't mind Leo. I would love to have you in my room." She said calmly."Fucking no!' I yelled silently in my mind."I know, but I think I will be okay in the third room." She answered."Okay, then take it. From today onwards it will be your room." Tey said softly."Then excuse me, I'll go and take a bath if that's ok
Ian's p.o.v"Are you okay?" Amelia asked me softly."Yes, I am." I answered then rubbed my forehead gently with my fingers."To be honest, I feel anxious and impatient. It's been a day since Uncle called to report on the powerful witch that they found." I said honestly.She smiled then moved and sat next to me on the bed."Everything will work out fine I believe." She whispered softly then brushed her hand through my hair.I looked at her seriously then smiled."You are always positive these days." I said with a raised brow as she chuckled softly."That's because I don't want to let anything hinder my happiness. I want to live my life in peace and to spend a lot of time with the people I truly love and adore." She answered then stood up.She stumbled a bit and before she could fall, I quickly stood up and rushed to her side wrapping my arm around her waist."Are you okay?" I asked in concern.She touched her forehead for a second then dropped her hand."I'm okay." She answered calmly.
Lexi's p.o.vI sat on a couch, in an office eating cake. Besides me were Whitney and Leomord.Alpha Ian sat on a chair behind his huge desk looking at me seriously while Amelia stood next to him with a welcoming smile on her face."Lexi, our Alpha would like to speak to you." Whitney said softly.I stopped eating and looked at him calmly.When Leomord and Whitney had told me about this cursed pack, I thought the curse was made and put on them through a very powerful binding ritual. But now looking at him and a few pack members, I came to realize that the incantation spoken to bind them wasn't that hard. All I had to do was say the exact incantation backwards."I'm sorry for summoning you Whitney and Uncle to come with Lexi on short notice. It's just that my pack....""Has been cursed for a very long time." I finished his sentence in a low tone."Yes and because of it my pack...""Can't seem to sense who their mates are, right?" I asked calmly as Whitney looked at me with a cold expres
Whitney's p.o.v"Eat as much as you want." Amelia said joyously as she put a lot of meat on Lexi's plate."Thank you." Lexi answered then picked up a smaller piece, eating it happily.We all sat in the dinning room eating and enjoying the meal.I sat between Leo and Lexi, and opposite us, sat Neo, Nana and Logan.Ian was standing with a bottle of champagne in his hands while Amelia went around serving everyone food without their consent.No one seemed to mind and I didn't either because my wolf was very happy seeing the Alpha queen this happy.I relaxed in my seat thinking back on how we rushed to come here. After instructing the territory warriors on what to do and giving them the new rules I and Leo had come up with, we left. Our trip didn't take long because of the car we took.Now that everything was settled here I wanted to quickly go back to the Alpha queen's territory and make sure everything was running smoothly.I no longer trusted Ibuk after his messed up confession he mad
Amelia's p.o.vMy throat was dry, my heart was beating rapidly and I was feeling hot."Babe." Ian called softly.I turned and looked at him seriously. We were standing in our bedroom, close to our bed."How?" I asked in a cracked voice.Everything felt so unreal and so sudden. "What do you mean by how?" He asked calmly.Why was he so calm after what Lexi had said in front of everyone."How could she say that In front of everyone?. What if it's all a blunt lie?. I asked on top of my voice."Do you know how embarrassing it would be for me if I wasn't carrying your pup!" I exclaimed in fear.He smiled softly then took my hands in his. The tingles that spread throughout my entire body were stronger than anything I had ever felt.My body relaxed as his scent filled the room. The fear I felt a second ago instantly vanished as well."Amelia, I love you." He whispered softly as tears filled my eyes.I loved him too but I was scared, very scared. Not because of the embarrassment I would go
Lexi's p.o.v"Are you comfortable?" Whitney asked softly."Yes." I answered.She brushed my hair backwards then stood up from the bed."If you want to talk to me or you have a nightmare, come knock on my door, it's just opposite yours." She said then walked out before I could respond.I slowly sat upright and stood up from the bed. I wasn't sleepy despite it being late at night and I felt uneasy over what happened in the afternoon.I had no idea my honesty would make Amelia uncomfortable and unhappy."I guess it is hard being around a lot of people." I whispered then walked out of the room and went out of the pack house."It's cold." I whispered to myself while I walked around not knowing where I was going."I hate her fucking annoying voice." A deep male voice said, making me stop in my tracks.I turned and looked at the small dark road where the voice was coming from. I couldn't see clearly but I could Sense that there was more than one person there."Me too. We both can tell that s
Kyle's POV It felt so unreal when my father called Larson and me into his office to tell us how we had to prepare ourselves because tomorrow the ceremony was going to take place.All we could do was look at each other and then at him in excitement. We were also nervous about everything."How are you feeling?" Larson asked me seriously.We were in the training field exercising."A little of everything. You know, scared, nervous, excited, and happy," I answered simply."What about you? How do you feel?" I asked."I feel so nervous and scared, but also excited because I have always looked forward to standing by your side when you take over as Alpha," he answered."I'm glad," I said honestly."Larson and Kyle, go to the border right now," my father's command came through the pack's mind link."Gosh, what now?" I whispered and then began to walk to the border with Larson right by my side."Maybe we are receiving other visitors," he said."Like who? Every member of our family is right in t
Ian's POV"Are you sure they aren't close by?" I asked Neo."I am positive, Ian. Tamara, Lexi, and Yuki went to give Tanya a tour of our pack. As for Blade, Larson and Kyle, they went to help Nana and Sharon with something," he answered."Okay," I whispered, then cleared my throat and looked at everyone seriously."I'm glad to have you all here today, and I'm also kind of proud of you, August, for choosing your mate instead of some women who took you out of your misery," I said, then laughed softly when he rolled his eyes."The main reason I asked most of you to come over wasn't only because of August, but because of my son and nephew," I said, and then moved forward."I have wanted to take a step away from everything and finally step back from being an active Alpha for a few years now. Unfortunately, Amelia was against it because she knew Kyle wasn't ready. That's why we sent him to the training camp," I said seriously."But now Amelia and I truly believe he is ready. We have also se
August's POV "Are you okay?" Tanya asked seriously.I wasn't okay in any way, but I wasn't going to tell her that.I was already nervous while driving, but now that we were here, I felt like I had made a wrong decision.I could see the twins laughing and mocking Tanya, and us fighting because of that. I could also see Felix making a lame comment about how I went for the daughter after the mother failed to make me stay."I am fine," I answered and then frowned when I looked at the entrance.Something was definitely wrong.Not only did we cross Ian's pack, but we were parked close to the pack house, yet no one was there to welcome us. Not even the warriors, when it was so obvious that Ian knew I had crossed his border."Shall we go and knock?" she asked."Yes," I answered and then got out and went to open the door for her."Thank you," she said softly when she stepped out."Don't mention it," I answered and then shut the door."Do I look okay?" she asked in a low tone.I looked at her
Felix's POV"Remind me again, why didn't we use the portal?" I asked Chase, who was driving the car."I told you already, Sammy. Lee and Jeannie will be running a little late," he answered and then gave me a warm smile."They just had to go and visit them; how annoying," I muttered."Family is never annoying," he said in a low tone, then focused on the road.He was right; family was everything, but I was still annoyed that Lee chose to go and visit his family with Jeannie right after Ian had told us about his plans for Kyle and Larson's succession.“Screw him,” I whispered softly."Hey, sweetheart, we have reached," he informed me simply.I looked at the pack house that was visible from afar after we had crossed the border, then sighed.I was really looking forward to seeing my baby girl more than anyone. Besides that, I missed Ian and Amelia a lot, but I wasn't going to openly admit it until they said it first."Remember what we talked about? No more showing disgust towards Larson. W
Kyle's POV "You sound grumpy," Lui said to me on the phone."Maybe it's because your sister hasn't picked up any of my calls. I miss her a lot, and I think you understand how I feel. Or maybe it's because Larson can't stop rubbing it in my face how happy he is," I answered seriously.Yesterday, when he went back with Tamara, I did want them to have a good time together.But when they came back laughing and walking hand in hand, I envied them. I wished Yuki could be here with me. I felt so lonely, and so did Lionel."I told you how she was busy helping Mom out with something. When she is free, I will tell her to call you," he answered."Well, we can't all feel the same way, can we?" I muttered."Dude, she does love you a lot; she is just very busy. Also, is that how a soon-to-be Alpha acts and reacts? Have more dignity and faith in everything and everyone," he said loudly."Says the guy who can't take his mate to that magical place we were," I answered in a mocking tone."How did you
Larson's POV "Do you like the smell?" Tamara asked with a smile.I inhaled deeply and then nodded."I like it," I answered simply.We were in a store looking at perfumes and trying to see which one suited me the most. Although she looked serious whenever she didn't like a scent, she seemed to have a lot of fun.My plan was to go out to eat, but when she saw the store, she asked me to pull over, and I couldn't say no."Although I love this a lot, let me check out that purple one at the far end of the shelf," she said and then went to grab it.I turned and looked at the jewelry display that was close to the entrance. Since we walked in, my eyes had been set on a beautiful blue diamond necklace and how amazing it would look if she wore it."She would love it," my wolf said, making me chuckle."I don't think so. Since we walked in, she didn't even spare a glance at the jewelry," I answered."Maybe she is being considerate of us," he said seriously."Please, we’ve been getting a monthly
Dusk's POV "Maybe a little rest will do," my father said with concern."I don't need rest right now, Father. I want to be stronger and better," I answered seriously."You will with time, but all I am asking you to do right now is rest," he said.I looked at him coldly and then nodded."Fine, I will rest," I answered and then went to sit on a beach that was under a huge tree.The training field was wide and a large area that most warriors used. But there was a certain side that was considered a resting place. Only a few warriors came there to rest, and we figured it would be a good place to use for my training.I hated being watched, and my father knew that. That's why I was relieved when he chose this place."You stay here; I'll be right back. Oh, and I'll ask your sister to bring you some cold water," he said and then walked away.Micah was my cousin, but because my father took her as a daughter, she became my sister.I paid no mind to that because I loved having her as a sister. I
Tamara's POV"Making a speech like that is a little too much," I said seriously in Larson's room.When he called my phone and asked me to come over, I didn't know what to expect, so I put on my best outfit and applied light makeup to my face.As soon as I reached his door, he opened it, grabbed my hand, pulled me in, and shut the door behind us.He was so excited that he couldn't wait for me to sit down when he told me how he and Kyle were soon going to be the acting Beta and Alpha.I was sincerely happy and proud; that's why I hugged him tightly and told him exactly how I was feeling.When I pulled back and sat down, he began sharing a few speeches that he would say on the actual day and asking for my opinion.I told him the truth, and he went on to make a few adjustments to those I liked."Maybe I shouldn't do any of them, seeing how I have never heard anyone ever doing it before," he said in a dejected tone."What? No, you should. Just because no one has ever done it, it doesn't me
August's POV "Am I not doing anything wrong, am I?" I asked Ried as I looked at the tray of breakfast that I had prepared."You are actually being awfully considerate," he answered, making me smile."That's the least I can do for being a jerk to our mate," I replied, then grabbed the tray and nervously walked to the bedroom with it.I wanted what happened between us to happen so badly; that's why I was happy when Ried took the initiative.Now that we had been making love and just being in each other's embrace for the past few days, I was thinking of myself as a selfish bastard who wouldn't let her rest, yet I couldn't stop myself.When Ried decided to be the first one to embrace her, I immediately accepted and took a step back because he was what I was supposed to be to her, and that was an amazing mate. He deserved to mark her before I could even do it.He was so respectful, even when I took over and decided to spend my time with her in bed.I really was lucky to have him as a part
