Chapter Nine

Azalea remained seated near the window, gazing at the moonlit forest outside of the pack house. The night was eerily silent, yet her thoughts were far from calm. Recollections of her past vibrant existence replayed continuously, teasing her. Her dreams were once filled with visions of a future where she would find a loving partner, a soulmate who would value her and see her true self, beyond the complexities of family dynamics.

However, destiny had different intentions.

Her life fell apart like sand slipping through her hand. She lost everything due to a single mistake, a moment of anger and arrogance. Reflecting on the time before the betrayal, she remembered a world brimming with hope. She had always been a little bit of a dreamer, eagerly waiting for her soulmate to show up soon. Azalea had frequently envisioned the instant she would make eye contact with him - her genuine match - and experience the attraction, the connection that linked them. It was the solitary comm

    Chapter 10Federico walked confidently through the impressive corridors of his father's palace, with the tall columns and shiny marble floors mirroring his movements. The smell of new polish lingered in the atmosphere, blending with the subtle floral scent coming from the garden in the courtyard. But none of that was important to him. The grandeur of the palace, the symbols of monarchy and authority, seemed empty. He had visited this place so often that he was no longer impressed by it.He gritted his teeth while walking past the portraits of his predecessors, each with a stern look of power as if the burden of royalty had taken away any happiness they once had. It seemed like a caution, a hint of the consequences if he allowed his father to get his way.He was heading towards the throne room, where his father, the Lycan King, was waiting. Federico was aware of what this visit would involve. There would be no courtesies, no friendliness. Purely cold analysis and predictions, as usual.

    Chapter 11Federico walked briskly through the thick forest, his mind racing, feeling frustrated like a relentless itch he couldn't relieve. He felt the cool night air on his skin, with only the distant chirping of crickets disturbing the silence. However, he quickly acknowledged that he was not by himself."Without looking, he said 'Maya,' anticipating her arrival before she even spoke. Her quiet, shadow-like movements always caught his attention.Moving ahead, she came out from behind the trees. Maya, the daughter of the king's most trusted advisor, tended to show up when Federico was most cautious. Her black hair flowed over her shoulders, and her eyes, consistently gentle when gazing at him, expressed a blend of worry and another emotion."Did you anticipate my arrival?" she inquired, her voice tinged with sadness but accompanied by a small smile. "I've never been good at being sneaky."Federico eventually shifted his gaze towards her, its intensity softening a bit as he looked at

    Chapter 12Azalea angrily returned to her room, breathing heavily, with her hands tightly balled at her sides. Although her crying had ceased, the pain in her chest persisted, throbbing in sync with her heartbeat. The betrayal by her sister, the person who should have supported her, hurt more than any physical injury. How did everything fall apart so quickly?She walked back and forth in her room, her fast and uneven steps matching the storm of thoughts in her mind. Once, she had imagined discovering her soulmate, experiencing love, and finding something genuine. However, everything had now been taken abruptly. She was not given a choice and was treated like a mere piece in a political scheme, a marriage intended to benefit others rather than herself.The door quietly opened with a creak, and a hesitant maid entered, her eyes slightly widening as she observed Azalea's restless pacing."Is that Lady Azalea?" the maid inquired, her voice gentle and slightly unsure as she noted the tense

All the pieces were coming together perfectly. Azalea had to endure pain to solidify her place in the family, and before long, her sister would be gone from her life forever.While walking, she pondered about the upcoming wedding. There was just a matter of time left before everything was sorted out, and Azalea would have to accept her new duty as Prince Federico's wife. The marriage would strengthen alliances, and with Azalea out of the picture, Ophelia could move forward with her plans without her sister always hovering nearby.There was a lot of hustle and bustle in the palace as servants and courtiers got ready for the big ceremony.

    Chapter 14Federico faced the tall, intricate doors to his father's chamber, his expression indifferent yet his mind in a whirlwind. He was aware of what was waiting for him behind the door - his father and probably his brothers. It was impossible to avoid. Inhaling deeply, he pushed open the door and walked into the room.Predictably, Leandro and Thomas, his siblings, were already present beside their father, King Marcos. The room remained magnificent, with tall columns and walls decorated with luxurious tapestries, yet the mood was uneasy. Upon his arrival, Federico quickly spotted the annoyance visible on his brothers' faces, with their eyes narrowing in response. He couldn't care less, despite their clear resentment.King Marcos was seated in his tall chair, looking intently at Federico as he entered the room. His father appeared calm, yet there was an indiscernible heaviness in his eyes, casting a somber atmosphere over the room."Federico," his father started, speaking with a st

    Chapter 15Soft beams were cast across the walls in Azalea's room as the morning light filtered through the large windows. Lying in bed, she gazed at the ceiling, absorbed in thoughts about what lay ahead for her. The manor was suddenly filled with the reverberating sound of loud, joyous music coming from outside. She became rigid, understanding immediately the implication. Federico's bundle had been delivered.Azalea abruptly sat up, her muscles tight, and cast the blankets aside. The beat of her heart quickened in her chest, and she sensed the usual surge of anxiety starting to rise within her. Today was the long-awaited day, the one she had been anxious about for weeks. The way she lived was going to be forever altered. With hardly any time to collect her thoughts, she saw the door to her room slowly open, and two maids entered with their heads down in deference."Miss Azalea, good morning," greeted one of the maids with a soft tone, exhibiting formality in her voice.Azalea gave a

He had become used to the weight of his duties as the upcoming ruler, but that didn't mean he had to enjoy it. Thoughts of his impending marriage, responsibilities, and family tensions filled his mind, clouding his thoughts. The sudden rap at the door interrupted his train of thought."Enter," he invited, his voice crisp.Jones bowing, entered the room with his trusted advisor. "Your Majesty, did you ask for a status report on the princess?"Federico gave a confirming gesture, his jaw tightly closed. "Did my dad send agents to check on her?" He spoke in a curt tone, showing his annoyance with the whole situation.Jones remained still, his expression showing no emotion. "Yes, Your Majesty. The monarch dispatched a small number of reliable scouts to investigate the princess's history and her present condition. All appears to be in place for the wedding to

I knew that I wouldn’t dare tell them that I had just stolen my own son's mate.“It’s nothing, I just remembered that I need to discuss something with Luther.” I lied before moving backward a little and then left the secret room and went back to the palace.I staggered slowly through the hallways as I was unable to believe what just happened…it began to make perfect sense to me, that was why Azalea wasn’t able to stay away from Luther even though my inner wolf was very weak.It was because of the pull which she kept feeling and that was what I had always thought was cheating.“I tried to separate them but I was just making the situation worse and their bond to keep getting close,” I muttered to myself as I staggered like a person who was drunk, I stopped again when I realized something.“How am I even sure that they haven’t slept with each other in secret already?” I asked myse

What good I possibly do to Isabelle that would make her regret ever being born into this world or even being in this pack?I don’t know why Alpha Federico can’t just chase them all away, at least Alpha Rozan left but why weren’t Isabelle and Kade leaving?Suddenly I remembered Kade and that made me angry with myself, I don’t know why I always remembered him. He rejected me and yet acted so emotionally with me,I stood up from the bed and wore my key favorite dress to stroll around and that’s when I searched around for my novel from the other day but couldn’t find it, “where could I have kept it?” I questioned myself and then I remembered the night of my intimacy with Luther, he had collected the book from me while he kissed me and took me to his room and that’s when I recalled seeing him drop it on the shelf in the hallways.I checked on Alpha Federico and he was still fast asleep,
