Chapter 32

Azalea stood in front of the mirror as Vick carefully helped her into her dress, adjusting the straps and smoothing the fabric against her skin. The gown was a deep shade of emerald, complimenting her dark hair and eyes, and Vick gave her a satisfied nod once everything was in place. “You look perfect, my lady,” she said, stepping back to admire her handiwork.

Azalea glanced at her reflection, her face calm, though her thoughts were elsewhere. Tonight’s dinner wasn’t something she was looking forward to, but it was part of the charade she had agreed to with Federico. Their contract may have dictated their actions in public, but she was under no illusion about what it meant behind closed doors.

Federico was across the room, adjusting the cufflinks on his royal robe. The quiet sound of his movements was interrupted by the sharp ring of his phone. Azalea glanced toward him just as the phone lit up on the nightstand. The caller ID flashed: Maya.

Her expression didn’t change, an

    Chapter 33Leandro and Thomas made their way through the palace gardens, the cool evening air brushing against their skin as they walked toward Federico’s section of the palace. Their conversation was light, but there was an underlying tension as they both recalled the strange events of the past few days. It wasn’t like Federico and Azalea to keep to themselves this much, especially given their usual distant relationship. Yet, the odd shift in their behaviour hadn’t gone unnoticed.As they approached the parking lot outside Federico’s residence, Leandro’s sharp eyes narrowed. “One of his cars is missing,” he said, pointing toward the empty spot.Thomas looked over, frowning. “Seems like they’re out,” he muttered, his gaze scanning the quiet grounds.They continued forward until they spotted Jake, one of Federico’s trusted guards, standing just outside the house. He gave them a polite nod as they approached.“Evening, Jake,” Leandro greeted casually, though his curiosity was evident in

    Chapter 34Vick walked briskly through the corridors of the palace toward the grand hall. Her footsteps were soft against the marble floors, but her mind was focused. As she approached the entrance, she wasn’t surprised to see Maya’s car parked outside. Maya had a knack for showing up exactly when expected—and sometimes when she wasn’t.Just as she took a step closer to the hall, her phone buzzed in her pocket. She pulled it out, noticing the caller Maya. Vick took a deep breath before answering.“Hello, Miss Maya,” Vick said, her tone neutral.“Where’s your mistress?” Maya’s voice was sharp as if she couldn’t quite hide her curiosity. “Is Azalea with you?”“No, my lady is back at the palace,” Vick replied calmly, her eyes scanning the hall entrance. “Is there a message you’d like me to deliver to her?”For a moment, there was a pause on the other end of the line. Then Maya’s voice came through again, but this time it was softer, almost dismissive. “No need. I’ll handle it myself.”B

    Chapter 35Maya stormed into her home, her heels clicking angrily against the marble floor. She didn’t pause to greet the staff or acknowledge her family’s presence in the living room. Instead, she made a beeline for her bedroom, slamming the door shut behind her with such force that the walls seemed to shake. She paced back and forth, seething, her hands clenching into fists. “Azalea,” she hissed under her breath, the mere thought of the woman making her blood boil. The way she had dared to show up at the meeting—Maya’s territory, where she was supposed to be the one standing at Federico’s side. Yet Azalea had waltzed in, full of grace and confidence, making it clear she wasn’t backing down. There was a soft knock on her door. “Maya?” came the voice of her younger sister, Marie, from the hallway. “What’s wrong?”Maya spun around, her eyes flashing with irritation. “Go away, Marie!”Marie opened the door cautiously, peeking inside. “You’ve been acting strange since the meeting with

    Chapter 36Ophelia stood in front of the grand mirror in her chamber, adjusting her gown with a smug smile. Her plan was falling into place, and she couldn’t wait to execute it. She turned to face Mack, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, deep in thought, his expression distant.“We leave for the Red Moon pack in two days,” she announced, running her fingers over the delicate fabric of her gown. “I’ll need to visit the hospital there.”Mack raised his eyebrows, mildly curious. “The hospital? Why?”Ophelia gave him a side glance, her smile growing wider. “You know it’s one of the best in all the clans combined. I need to check in on a few things. Besides, it’s good to show that we’re staying informed about the state of things outside of our pack.”Mack shifted, his thoughts still tangled in doubt. He had followed Ophelia into this relationship, thinking it was driven by his desires, but lately, he wasn’t so sure. Her pull on him was undeniable—she was beautiful, seductive, and smar

    Chapter 37Gabe and Jake entered Federico's office, their expressions carefully neutral. Federico, seated behind his large oak desk, raised an eyebrow as they approached, already sensing what was coming.“Your brothers, Leandro and Thomas, were here to see you,” Gabe said, folding his arms across his chest.Federico let out a dry laugh, leaning back in his chair. “You don’t have to behave as if you don’t know that I don’t get along with them. You can skip the formalities.”Jake exchanged a glance with Gabe before shrugging. “We know, but it’s still good to keep you informed.”Federico shook his head, tapping his fingers on the desk, his mind already wandering. His brothers had always been trouble, always scheming behind his back. But today, they weren’t his main concern. “Alright, enough about them,” he said, rubbing his temples. “Let’s talk about the ball.”Both Gabe and Jake straightened, understanding the seriousness in his tone.“I need you two to be vigilant during the ball,” Fe

    Chapter 38Azalea woke up with the soft rays of the morning sun streaming through the large windows of her bedroom, casting a warm glow on her face. A smile crept across her lips as she stretched lazily in bed, feeling a sense of satisfaction wash over her. Today would be the day her sister Ophelia and Mack arrived, and she couldn’t wait to see the shock and disappointment on their faces. They had imagined her suffering, broken by her circumstances, but instead, they would find her thriving. Her confidence and newfound strength made her eager for the confrontation.Her thoughts were interrupted by a soft knock on the door. Vick stepped in quietly, her hands clasped in front of her."Good morning, Luna," Vick said with a small bow. "Queen Selena is here to see you."Azalea sat up abruptly, her eyes widening in surprise. “Queen Selena? What is she doing here?”"I don't know, but she asked to speak with you immediately," Vick replied, moving over to help Azalea into her jacket. Azalea n

    Chapter 39Federico sat behind his desk, deep in thought as he reviewed the security protocols for the upcoming ball. He knew it wasn’t going to be an ordinary event. With the political tension between the packs and the presence of rogues lurking in the shadows, nothing needed to go wrong. His thoughts were interrupted when Gabe and Jake walked in.“Everything is set for the ball, Alpha,” Gabe said, standing tall before the desk. “But we wanted to check in to see if there were any last-minute orders.”Federico looked up at them, his brow furrowed. “Make sure to check the halls thoroughly. I don’t want any mistakes. Rogues or worse, Lycans, could try to sneak in, and I won’t tolerate any threats. I want every inch of this place covered.”Jake nodded. “We’ll sweep the halls and make sure everything’s in order.”As they turned to leave, the door creaked open, and Maya made her way into the office, a soft smile on her face. Federico’s mood lightened instantly at the sight of her, and he r

Maya hadn’t said much after their time in the garden, and Azalea could tell something was bothering her. As they reached the doorway, Maya’s phone rang, and she instinctively glanced at the screen.It was Bennett again.Maya’s expression changed instantly, her face tightening in frustration and fear. Azalea noticed and stopped in her tracks, looking at Maya with concern.“Is everything alright?” Azalea asked gently, her voice carrying a note of curiosity.Maya snapped her head toward Azalea, her expression sharp. “Mind your own business, Azalea,” she spat out, her voice laced with irritation.Azalea raised an eyebrow, surprised by the venom in Maya’s tone, but she didn’t press further. Maya turned on her heel and stormed away, her phone clutched tightly in her hand. As she disappeared down a side corridor, Vick, who had been standing nearby, stepped closer to Azale

    Azalea’s povI took my seat on Alpha Federico's bed as I tried to relax my nerves from all that I had just done, Alpha Federico handed me a glass of water which I collected with a wide smile and gulped it in.“I still can’t believe you did that to Isabelle and could still act cool about it.” Alpha Federico said followed by a chuckle, I smiled as I slowly sipped my water like it was wine…I couldn’t even tell how I felt, if I was being angry with myself for showing Alpha Federico I liked him.Suddenly everything I said previously started coming back to me as I dropped the cup and covered my face in embarrassment.I still couldn’t believe such words came out of my mouth. I told him I loved him!!Alpha Federico noticed I was shy and pulled me in for a hug.“I know you are a jealous kind but why would you take it to the extent of beating her almost to a coma.” He muttered to my cheek before kissing it gently.“I didn’t know what hit over me but it’s not just about jealousy, I just hate Isa

    Azalea’s povI breathed heavily as I sat on my bed but at the same time I couldn’t stop myself from laughing,“That was a really slim escape, I can’t believe I got intimate with Luther and still was able to sneak out,” I muttered to myself before smiling and laying on the bed.I looked around and suddenly I had a flashback of all that just happened, I twirled around on my bed as I couldn’t stop giggling to myself.What was slowly happening to me? Was now falling for Luther too. I wish I could just stop loving Alpha Federico but it isn’t possible…the kind of feeling I have for Alpha Federico was more like possessiveness than love and Luther I also felt this continuous weird pill with him and even though I know deep down that I wasn’t doing the right I just couldn’t stop myself…I was too deep into this to just bail out like it meant nothing to me.I decided to go check on Alpha Federico as I was sure he was looking for me now. I walked out of my chambers and towards Alpha Federico's ch

    Alpha Federico povI still couldn’t agree with it, but Lucy seemed too serious so I had no choice but to take her seriously.“What do you mean?” I questioned her angrily but she hissed and tried to walk away, the same rubbish she always did with me but this time around I wasn’t going to accept it.“Get back here!!” I exclaimed and instead of stopping she continued to walk away, I pulled her back and slammed her back harshly to the wall making her gasp for breath.“How can you slam me to the wall, almost choking me just because of Azalea and you expect me to still tell you my reason behind what I did!! I won’t tell you a thing!!” Lucy said and I could see it in her voice that it would be very difficult to convince her to tell me a thing.“You are the cause of all the problems your ass though, when you are always so difficult with yourself, trying to prove you are so stubborn but yet you don’t win anyway…that is the main reason why I chose Azalea over you,” I said to her hoping she woul

    Azalea’s povAfter Isabelle walked away, I turned my attention to Luther who was still angry, “What did she mean by I tried to steal Kade from her and I am going to have to fight her for Alpha Federico’s attention?” I said to Luther who was silent.I moved closer to Luther but he stepped back. “The palace is in a Cold War and you are the main character,” Luther said, still avoiding my gaze, I knew he wasn’t telling me all and I didn’t want to force him as I didn’t want to ruin the mood we had already begun with.“You don’t have to explain it to me anymore, I already know the kind of person Isabelle is so you don’t have to even tell me anything,” I muttered before walking up to him with my hands widely opened, and that, he hugged me tightly but it didn’t last for long as he pulled away.“I wouldn’t want my father to find us here, it won’t be a good boast if Isabelle sees Alpha Federico locking you up, you know how crazy my father can be,” Luther said before grabbing my hands and taking

    Luther’s povI couldn’t believe I had just almost spilled the only secret I had, how could I have been so dumb to think of telling Kade I was Azalea’s real second chance mate, But keeping it a secret was also really tiring and I could only hope that things would change from now on because I wasn’t going to for any reason give up on Azalea, I would fight my father to the end just to make her mine again and I knew just where to begin.I walked into the garden and Azalea was alone there reading her novels as usual while I stood still and quietly watched her as she seemed to be smiling to herself.“You must really love the novel?” I questioned before taking a seat beside her.I stared at her from head to toe and I couldn’t help but be more determined, she belonged to me yet my father deflowered her but I couldn’t say anything. All I did was feel jealous over something that belonged to me but I couldn’t do anything.He continued to maltreat and beat up my own mate as if she belonged to hi

How dare you claim her just because her mate isn’t acknowledging her yet.” He muttered but that made me chuckle even more as I moved closer to him.“Do you know who my mate is? Do you know where he is now or why he abandoned her?” I whispered to him and I could see him flinch a little like he had something to say.His grip on me slowly released and before I knew it he pushed me away angrily.“You all are so wicked, now I know why Azalea doesn’t

    Alpha KadeI knew that Isabelle was always right to me but something about the way Azalea sis felt these things made me doubt my feelings for Isabelle. Did I really love her back then or did I only do it for power? And now I still didn’t have the power I had yearned so badly for. Alpha Rozan also played a trick on me and only gave Isabelle to me just to secure more names amongst the packs of Alphas.But looking at Azalea I had so much regret. “Why do you continue to say she stole me from you Azalea when we never belonged to each other to begin with?” I questioned,“You were my mate first but you never listened to me, you neglected me and because of you, my wolf is weak and unable to identify my second mate!!! all because of you!!” She yelled before sitting back angrily.“So you were the reason why her inner wolf was locked? Stopping her from finding her mate.” Luther said and looking back at him and then back at Azalea I could see the rage in his eyes, something was wrong somewhere.
