Xavier's pov

Nothing, there was just nothing.

Where my heart used to beat so violently, now just hollow. She was gone, there was no fixing it now, she was gone forever.

“Explain yourself!” My father's voice came screaming but I could barely hear it.

“She was your mate, wasn't she?” Mom asked, awakening the ache I'd now grown so used to.

I couldn't find my words, all I could do was feel this emptiness that had taken over my entire being.

How could I have been so stupid? She was perfect for me in every way! She was mine.

“Did you reject her before or after you found out she was a powerful elf?” My father asked, his annoyance too obvious.

But did it matter? Wether she was an elf or a wolf-less omega? Why did I care before?

Why did they have to treat her like trash? They made me hate her, I know deep down I've always wanted her.

“I should have seen it, you were acting strange. That's what you were doing snooping around the kitchen yesterday isn it?” Mom asked but I still couldn't f

  • THE LYCAN KING'S HIDDEN PRINCESS    Trapped

    Alari's povI was woken up by loud cheers, groaning as my body felt heavy. I felt different, I'd woken up feeling broken and empty but now, I was… happy?I sat up, wincing a little at the sting in my neck. Bringing my hand up to sooth the pain, I felt slight bruising over what felt like a tattoo. A wave of heat swept through me at the memory of Damien sinking his teeth deep into my neck, marking me his own. I looked around the room and realised I was alone and I was only sad for a few seconds before the cheering outside reminded me of the reason Damien was here in the first place. “Roman said they left because they had to and that they would be back soon” my wolf said, sounding so clear and strong. I suddenly realised something, something that had never bothered me before… I don't know my wolf's name!“Sapphira” she said with a giggle and my face grew heated with embarrassment. “Hi Sapphira, you feel strong, is it because of the mark?” I asked, wanting to know how she was so pr

    Damien's povIt had been a whole hour since I crowned the new couple Alpha and Luna and I was ready to join my own Luna in bed. “Drake seems to be quite close to Alpha Thomas, they're been having private conversation the whole day” Lucien said, bringing this to my attention for the first time. I raised a brow at him and he shrugged, “you were busy” he said dismissively, making me roll my eyes. I looked around the crowd and saw the new Luna mingling with other Lunas and pack members and her Alpha was sitting in a corner getting wasted. My eyes found Drake and Thomas again and I wondered what it was they were talking about. Thomas was one of the Alpha's that were against my reign, the only reason he was alive is because he realised they couldn't win and switched sides quickly. Was he going to try something else? Aligning his pack with the two that merged today would definitely give him a foot to stand on. Something told me to look back at the idiot drinking himself blind at his o

    Alari's povA sweet, soft humming ushered me back to the land of the living, a hand gently stroking my hair. “Hey there” I heard Damien's voice as I blinked my eyes open, coming face to face with the most handsome man alive. “Were you humming to me?” I asked, a smile stretching across my face at the memory. “What? No, I wasn't” he said, looking at me with confusion. I frowned, I could have sworn I heard humming, soft and sweet, almost dream like. “Maybe it was just a dream” I yawned, burrowing into him until my nose was right against his neck, breathing in his scent. “Hmmm” I hummed, loving how close he was and his gently touch. “How are you feeling love?” he asked, a bit of concern in his voice and I tried to remember why I wouldn't be feeling okay to cause him such concern.Xavier! I pulled away from him, sitting up on the bed and my hand instinctively went to my neck, feeling a bandage on there. “Your dad said it would heal quickly, I was just a bit scared to remove it bu

    Damien's povI felt my chest fill up with pride, smirking as Thomas sat back down. “Damn!” Lucien linked, making me chuckle. “Damn is just about right” I linked back, about time my mate put these runts in their place. “Damien, please get it done, I want to leave now” she said, making the three of them whimper and cry. “As you wish my Queen” I said, making her look at me and blush a little. “My King please, don't do this!” The Luna pleaded but there was no way I would disrespect my Queen by showing her mercy. “Alpha Thomas, Luna Adele, as punishment for your crimes against a pack member and the Luna Queen of this Kingdom, I Damien Knight, King of the Lupine Kingdom strip you of your titles and authority. You will now be recognised as omegas” I said, my Alpha command and authority as King making them shrink in their seats, whimpering. “And you, Xavier King, for your crimes against your Queen, I banish you from my Kingdom, you are to never set foot in my Kingdom again!” Roman and

    Alari's povMy hands were shaking, and my heart was beating so loud nothing made it past my ears as my parents pulled towards an office. How did they even know how to find it?The truth! They were finally going to tell me the truth! But… why did it feel like I wasn't ready? Why was I feeling all this dread? I know I've asked them time and time again, fought them at one time but was I really ready to know?That woman, why did she looked so much like me? Why did mom call her my mother? Where was she this whole time?! She was wearing a crown on that picture! Did that mean she was royalty? Was I royalty? Then why did I have to suffer at the hands of that Goddess awful pack if I was royalty. “I can hear the wheels spinning in that little head of yours, calm down love, all your questions will be answered” dad said, squeezing my hand before letting it go. “And knowing you, you have a lot!” Mom giggled, also letting me go, walking towards a book shelf on the far right.

    Pearl's povI felt my world sink when Alari started crying, I could tell she didn't want to but couldn't help it. Heck, I wanted to cry but I fought back my tears, this wasn't about me and I knew Alari would jump to comfort me if I did. I wished there was something I could do to make this go away, I wished I could take it all away and give her a good life. She deserved it, after all the suffering she took back at Silverlake, she deserved a little brightness in her life. Now I understood why her parents kept this from her, it would have broken her. Her cries twisted my heart painfully, I'd never heard her cry. She was the strong one between the two of us, the tough one, and now she was hurting so much she couldn't hold it in anymore. The King lifted her into his arms, whispering something about someone coming or whatever. I couldn't hear him, all I could hear was Alari and how much pain she was feeling. The truth she had always sought wasn't kind, definitely not what she was ex

    Alari's povThe light was blinding and my head was pounding, opening my eyes felt like absolute horror. I groaned, turning away from the light, hoping the other side wasn't as bright. “Good morning love” I heard Damien's voice and groaned, why was he so loud?! “My head hurts” I whispered, moving impossibly close to him, the contact made it a little better. “Sorry love” he said, his voice now lowered as he kissed my forehead and I was grateful for that. “I know something that will help but you have to get up” he whispered, gently stroking my hair and I groaned again, hating that little fact. Why couldn't we just stay like this? This was comfortable, this was nice, this took away the ache. “I know this feels good but it won't take the pain away for good, you have to get up” he said, making me remember that he had access to my mind. “Urg, I hate you” I groaned, feeling him move away from me. “You love me” he chuckled, getting out of bed

    Alari's povDamien left for about 30 minutes to discuss pack business with Lucien after breakfast, instructing us to be ready to hit the road by the time he returned. I spent the time away from him listening to Pearl gush about Mason, loving the smile on her face and love in her eyes as she spoke. “Urg Lari he's perfect, and so gentle and just aaaaaah” she squealed, making me burst out in laughter. The door to Pearl's room burst open and Mason rushed in, looking worried. “I heard a scream, what's wrong?!” He asked, rushing over to the bed where we sat and took her face into his hands. “Are you hurt?” He asked and my heart melted at how tender he was. “No silly, we're okay” Pearl giggled, her smile so wide I worried she would have wrinkles. “Oh okay” he said, kissing her cheek. “I'm sorry for intruding my Queen” he bowed to me and I just waved it off. “The King sent me, it's time to go”

    Ezra at 15Alari's pov “I don't understand, for years they've been attacking our pack. Sometimes days in a row and they just… stopped?” I said, laying on Damien's chest, tucked in comfortably but sleep far from me. “I want to believe that we finally got the last of them, but it can't be that easy” he said, confirming my suspicions.We hadn't had an attack in two weeks, and yes, it's been a very welcome relief, but it kept me on edge. “What if it actually is over? Wouldn't it be a relief to not hold a funeral every other day?” Sapphira said, even though I knew she was worried as well. “That would be too good to be true Sapphira, they're probably gearing up for an even bigger attack. Get our guard down then strike when we least expect it!” Roman growled darkly, the sound sending shivers down my spine, and not the good kind. “We've taken too much loss over the past thirteen years, we can't afford any more. We need to be ready for anything” Damien said, making me sigh and burrow my n

    Ezra at 6 Damien's pov “We need to put together teams of highly skileld trackers and warriors to go out and hunt these things down!” I said, trying to ignore the headache that had been trying to crack skull open. “Wouldn't that be throwing them right into the jaws of our enemy?” Lucien asked, and even though I understood his point, waiting for them to surprise us always ended with someone dying.“People die with every attack, and we never know when the next one will be. If we hunt them down, we may have an advantage” I said, wishing I could some up with a better idea, but failed.“The element of surprise does sound like a good advantage, maybe that would help us locate where they're coming from. It's been four years and we still don't know where these things are coming from. They just show up ready to take us out one by one!” Alari growled, frustrated with the whole situation and I couldn't blame her. We'd been at war with these things this entire time and still knew next to nothi

I didn't want to use the bond to find him because I didn't want it to look like I was spying on him, but three whole hours? Without a single word?What if something happened to him?“We'd know” Sapphira said, making me internally roll my eyes. “Mason's gone too, yet I'm here doing just fine” Pearl said, waving her visibly shaking hand, which was suspicious. She could never lie to me.“You're more nervous than me, and trying to play it cool, which means you know what they're up to” I said, squinting my eyes at her.“What?! No I don't” she said, a little too loud and fast to be telling the truth, her eyes looking everywhere but at me. Lier! “Pearl! Talk! Now!” I growled at her, which made her shrink in her seat.“Let the girl be, they're back” mom said, coming into the kitchen with Ezra trailing behind her, making Pearl sigh heavily and I just squinted my eyes at her in warning, her gulp telling

    Alari's pov “How much longer is this going to TAKE!” I screamed the last word as another contraction wrecked my body, sending waves of unimaginable pain to my mind. “Just a bit more Luna, try to relax” Loren, my nurse, said, making me see red.“Tell me to relax one more time and I'll rip you to shreds!” I growled lowly, feeling my fingers frost over. “It's okay baby, I'm here, focus on me. You're doing great” Damien tried to quell my anger, his hand rubbing up and down my back. I felt my mind lose itself in the intense heaviness on my lower back, sparking a flame of rage within me. “Oh shut up. And get your hands off of me! This is all your fault!” I exploded at him, but a whine slipped from my lips the moment his hands left my body, lifted up in surrender. I had no idea what it was, I just hated him, resented him for putting me through so much pain, but I also needed his touch.It wasn't taking the pain away, the contact just made me warm on the inside, making the pain slightly

Hide me!” I said, moving as fast as I could while reaching out my hands for her to grab.Aaaaah yes, reduced from a war hero to a heavily pregnant, waddling mess, how glorious!“Alari!” Dad's voice came first, followed by rushed foot steps.“She's in here!” Pearl yelled, making me freeze where I stood, my eyes going wide with shock.“You traitor!” I grabbed the closest book to me and chucked it at her, watching her laugh as she dodged my weapon of destruction.“What's going on?” Mason asked, coming out from behind a shelf. “Somebody doesn't want to drink her medicine” Pearl sang, swaying side to side like she was enjoying my torture.Dad burst through the door with my grandfather right behind him. I grabbed another book and spun to face them, threatening them with it. “Don't fight, just take a little sip or two” dad said, raising his empty hand up in surrender. I growled at

Why couldn't I open my eyes?!“Baby listen to me, I need you to open your eyes, right now!” Pretty voice is panicking, wonder why?“Open your eyes!” Pretty voice wasn't so pretty when it was giving me a headache.Fucking ouch! My eyes fluttered and I was met with blurry darkness, then green, and they fluttered closed again.I felt like I was being pulled, no, dragged, by my arms and they fucking hurt!“Baby please, wake up!” Sobbing, why was she sobbing?My eyes fluttered again but this time, a blinding white greeted me, and a face, a pretty blurred face shouting over me.“That's it, come on! Fight the darkness, ignore the pain, wake up!” She said, my eyes clearing a little.“M..mom?” Speaking burnt my throat, why was it so dry?Darkness enveloped me again, but I fought it, and opened my eyes again.“Oh, somebody calling her mommy?

Kill all of them!” Helena screeched, making her army spring into action. “Don't you dare leave my side!” Damien growled.“Don't you dare leave my side!” Vivica repeated, cracking her neck.Chaos, that's the best way to explain what was happening. Cal and his group jumped from the trees like samurai, cutting down the creatures they fell on. Stopping the first wave from reaching us.But there was too many, and soon enough, they got past them. Grandpa, who was in the front line, broke the spear he'd been holding in half and drove the two sharp ends through the chests of two beasts that had flung themselves at him. They were brutal, and unforgiving, and one by one, the beasts fell, one after the other but there were too many, and without fail, I found myself driving my crystal clear spear into inky black fur.I didn't get a chance to celebrate my kill because another one launched itself over the dead one, coming straight for me. Literally thinking on my toes, I

She had no idea I knew all about her, how feisty she was, her temper, and all the trouble she and my mother got into. “We just want to know you, and Roan is hogging you to himself!” She sent a glare my grandfather's way before relaxing her gaze when she returned it to me.“And you will, but right now, we must leave” grandpa said with an edge to his voice, leaving very little room for argument but the change is Vivica’s expression to

With his muscled arms on display, I wanted to rip the entire shirt of and feast on him!“You two look great” grandfather said as he turned away from the river to face us.“Thank you” I smiled, watching a little sadness flicker in his eyes. I must be wearing my mother's clothes.“How about a tour of the realm of creation” he said, making me wonder what he meant by realm of creation, I thought this was the Kingdom of the dark elves…?I wanted to ask what he meant but a bubbling feeling of impending doom pushed the questions aside, I needed to warm him about Helena.“Grandpa, we need to talk about something, it's important” I said, trying not to show how scared I actually was. If anything happened to them because of me, I don't think I could live with myself.“What is it?” He frowned, giving me a once over before his eyes settled on mine.“N
