When Devlin came outside the kitchen with two plates of cheese pasta in his hands, he saw his mate drawing something on the big whiteboard. He didn’t know when she took that board from the study room to the living hall. As the board is on the other side, he couldn’t see what she is drawing. So, he placed the plates on the tea table and went near her to see what she is drawing. But, when he saw what she is drawing, he is shocked because he couldn’t understand anything. “What are you scribbling, Lucy?” He asked earning a glare from her. “I’m not scribbling. I’m making a root map” She said and he kept mum knowing that her aura is different now. Sometimes, he feels like she is the Alpha and she is trying to save him when he is trying his 100% to find who is behind her. But, he knew that in this story, only he can’t work to save their relationship but both of them need to. And he also knew that Lucy is only doing everything because she doesn’t want to lose him.
When Lucy was reading some files in her cabin, she felt her wolf is getting mad. She didn’t know what she wants. She tried to ask her but she didn’t reply. “What are you doing? What do you want?” Lucy asked umpteenth time still getting no answer. “I don’t know but I feel like my body is burning” Her wolf replied after a few minutes. “What! You have never told me something like this before and why I’m not feeling any burning sensation. I used to feel the pain whenever you were feeling, right?” Lucy asked making her wolf angry. “Is that what important now? Go and find the reason for this” Her wolf ordered and she also went on thinking of a reason. But, that’s when something hit her brain that something must have happened to her mate. She immediately ran to his room not caring about the people in the office spreading rumors about them. As no one knows Devlin being the CEO, they are not getting this high. She went ins
Sitting on her chair, Lucy drank a glass of cold water thinking that the burning sensation will calm down if she drank cold water. But, nothing has stopped the burning sensation. Her wolf is also crying inside because of the burning sensation. Both knew that they can’t able to break the promise Lucy did to her mother. On the other hand, Devlin is also trying some ways to stop the burning sensation in his body. He is only trying that for Lucy as if it’s successful for him, then it also must stop her burning sensation. But, nothing seems to be working. He has already asked Jammie, but Jammie also has nothing in his hands that can help them. And to make both Lucy and Devlin jealous, Connor and Cara are enjoying their time inside the meeting room. Devlin knew he can’t stop them as they were already controlling themselves during the meeting. Thankfully he has already disconnected the cameras in the meeting room and the room is also soundproof, otherwise, the whole office wo
Devlin looked at his mate who is looking inside his cabin through a keyhole in the door. He wants to laugh seeing her stupidity sometimes but then he knew why she is doing that. He must be angry with her but also then he knew he can’t and he don’t have any right to be angry with her for hiding that. Today morning when he heard about her identity, he immediately feared that the points he is trying to connect are connecting by themselves. He didn’t speak to her after hearing that. But, he is always careful around her. He shook his thoughts and went near her clearing his throat. But, he failed in his attempt as her full concentration is on the place behind the keyhole. When she was trying to look at the entire room through the keyhole, her wolf started to rage at her. “I know I’m the wolf for the stupidest girl ever, who doesn’t even have a brain. But, don’t even have a nose. Look behind, our mate is standing there” Her wolf and she immediately turned to look at him.
Somewhere in the middle of the forest, outside the city, Devlin’s car stopped in front of the huge gate and he got outside the car from the passenger seat. Yeah, he is not driving, but Lucy is. As she also knew the place, she decided to drive. Lucy also got down and looked at the gate and smiled sadly. Seeing the gate of the wolf’s lair, her bad memories started to resurface.The wolf’s lair is the part in the middle of the forest that is protected by huge walls and only Alpha and Luna can live inside this part of the forest. It was the gate she used to see from the distance with the thought of leaving this gate once, and she left completely. But, now her fate decided to take her here again. Devlin also noticed the sad expression on her face but the hint of fear on her face didn’t go unnoticed by him. Devlin went and opened the gate and looked at her. Seeing her looking at the surroundings, he guessed that she is still afraid of the other werewolves.
Lucy went inside and saw the mansion is completely clean. She guessed that it can be the work of Devlin. The majestic armchairs in the center of the hall, made her want to sit in them. But, she knew that she don’t have any right to sit in that now. Though the outside of the mansion is painted black, the interiors are only silvery-white and the furniture is not painted. She looked at the staircase on the right side of the mansion leading to the first floor. The staircase is also painted brown matching the furniture. All the while, Devlin is only looking at her expressions to know whether she likes this mansion or not. At first, she didn’t show any expression on her face, but when she saw the huge portrait of Devlin’s parents with the baby Devlin in their hands, she smiled and looked at him. “You were cute as the baby,” She said and he smiled at the response. “Come, I’ll show you around” Devlin called her and started to walk on the left side of the ma
The decreasing sunlight and increasing nightfall made Lucy shiver. As the memories started to run through her brain, she tried to stand up but only to be stopped by her mate. She looked at him and saw him showing her some photographs of her. Yeah, they both are still sitting at the same time in the garden. She raised her eyebrows asking what. Without telling her anything, he just turned that photo and showed it to her. That’s when she saw something written in that photo. She took that from him and started to read. 1st birthday – no symptoms. She read that and looked at him confusedly. She then again saw all the photos and the same thing written in those with different birthday numbers, like 2nd, 3rd, 4th, etc…But, when she saw the photo of her on her 15th birthday, there is a different saying. 15th birthday – it started. She looked at that for some time and then showed it to Devlin. He looked at that and at her
“We can leave,” Devlin said and started to leave her parent’s room without saying anything after seeing that locket. He didn’t leave that locket in the cupboard but instead, he collected it with her photographs and the telescope. Not knowing what to do, Lucy also started to follow him silently ignoring the tantrums her wolf is throwing. Devlin walked fast but he maintained speed so that she can follow him and he also made sure that she is following him. They both reached the gate of the wolf’s lair and when they both came outside, Devlin immediately locked the gate using some power that Lucy don’t know about. She didn’t ask him anything nor, he is ready to tell her that. Though there are thousands of things and confusion running inside his head, the first thing in his head is to make her take a rest. He signaled her to get on the passenger seat which she did thankfully as she is hell tired. Devlin got in the driver's seat and started to drive t
After checking that the main door is closed, Lucy went to Devlin’s room and saw that he is sitting on his couch in his nightdress. Lucy went and sat on his lap now understanding that something is disturbing him. “What are you thinking, mate?” She asked him but he didn’t hear it as his mind is playing with him. Lucy became confused and afraid and shook his shoulders taking him out of his world. That’s when he saw that his mate is sitting on his lap. He immediately hugged her keeping his head on the crook of her neck making her smile. “What are you thinking, Devlin?” She asked him again and he just shook his head telling her nothing. “Do you know what we talked about in the living hall?” She asked him getting ready to give him his surprise and Devlin also shook his head not knowing anything. “Do you know what day is tomorrow?” She again asked him and got the same reply. “We both are going to get…hmm…married
Devlin is confusedly looking at his mate not knowing where she is dragging him without giving him what he wants. Yes, just after a hot kiss, his mate stood up and started to drag him without telling him anything. But, he can understand that his mate is crying but happy tears. As his mind is blocked by the thoughts of her kiss, he is not even in the mood to see where she is dragging him. He is just trying to control his damn hands that are threatening him to make her stop and do whatever he wants. “Baby girl, please, come let’s go the home” He whined like a small kid, and Lucy smiled hearing him. “Just follow me silently,” She said not even looking at him and continues dragging him. Devlin, who had had enough of her stopped in a place making it hard for her to drag him and Lucy who understood his threat just turned and glared at him. “Tell me where you want to go. I’ll take you there” He said not fearing her glare but wanting to g
Stopping the car in front of the gate, Lucy took a deep breath that this time she is entering to know the future of her. If they were able to find a way to break the curse, she only knew what she will do after that. If they didn’t, then she will reject him so that he can have another mate without any pain and she’ll be with him as a shield going through the pain of seeing her mate with another one. The thought itself brought tears to her eyes and he noticed it. “Don’t you dare to think anything, baby girl? Whatever happens, you’re mine. And, if there is any silly plan running inside your head, stop thinking immediately. Before you even reject me, you’ll see my dead body” He said and went outside leaving her in complete shock. She didn’t know how he can catch what was running inside her mind. She closed her eyes and rested her head on the steering thinking about what he just said. Did he think she is happy to leave him or reject him? She will kill herself before
The next morning, both the mates were sitting in the study room and reading books like always. Devlin is reading the same books about curses as he wants to relax his mind after thinking for the whole last night. He didn’t even sleep last night after what that shadow man said. But, he didn’t get any clue and he also feels like he forgot something in this. He doesn’t know what he can do with the photograph of Seer. So, he thought of relaxing but using that time wisely. Lucy on the other hand, who is sitting on the couch in the study room, is reading a werewolf novel. She knew its crazy reading a werewolf novel while being a werewolf. But, what got her most is the thing in that novel. She wants to laugh at how the world is thinking that a male werewolf can hurt a female werewolf who is his mate but in reality not even a single werewolf even the most powerful one can’t hurt their mate. Most of the powerful werewolves only get to reject their mates as they thought that family
When Lucy went inside her room, the first thing she did is changing into a human form and comfortable jeans and a tee. Her mind was completely blocked and she couldn’t think of anything. She wants to think about what just happened, but her mind is blacked out. She sat on the bed just looking at the blank wall in front of her. She remembered everything that happened today morning and she guessed that because of her stupidity, Devlin must have found out that she doesn’t want him to leave. Her right hand automatically went to her back neck remembering how her mate was kissing her bare neck. Her body started to shake while remembered whatever he whispered in her ears. She wants to be happy knowing that her mate is ready to sacrifice his body's needs for her but then the fear inside her started to increase. What will happen if both of them lose control over them? No, she can’t think about that. She needs to stay away… She slept on her bed crying as she remembe
Devlin who went outside the office got in his car and started to drive at high speed without a destination. He knew that his mate is following him but he will regret his doing if he saw her now. He didn’t expect what she did just now. He thought she will be angry with him or break anything in her room. But, he never thought that just seeing a girl with him will lead her to do such things. He looked through the rearview mirror to see her following him in his bodyguard’s car. Even though he is furious, he smiled understanding that the word that was coming from her mouth was a complete lie. She doesn’t want to see him with any other one. She doesn’t want him to leave her. With a smile on his face, he increased the speed and turned his car towards the forest area. He has a plan running inside his head. On the other hand, Lucy didn’t know that his mate also can drive a car like a champion, because she couldn’t even reach him. Even though both the cars are the same r
The next day morning, both Lucy and Devlin went to the office like always. Lucy was the one who drove the car but both have been ignoring each other. They both didn’t eat anything yesterday also and Lucy almost became weak because of the injuries and the stress. As Devlin understood this, he asked one of his men to heat the leftover food that yesterday Cara and Mary cooked. He sent Cara to her room asking her to make Lucy something. He must have cooked her some food but he knew she’ll find out that he cooked for her and she won’t eat that food. And, in this situation the restaurant food only makes her weak, so he asked to reheat the food. Pacing around the cabin not knowing whether she was anything or not, Devlin looked at Connor who came inside with a happy face. “She finished her food, now it’s your turn. Eat something” Connor said as Cara has told him through the wolf. Devlin also nodded his head and sat on his chair and started to eat the
After completing the last sentence, he looked at Lucy with teary eyes to see whether she heard that or not, that he is in pain. And he saw that she is crying silently. She looked at him as if she is hearing nothing after that. But, when her eyes met him, she immediately looked away knowing that she can’t control herself if she saw him crying. Everyone who understood what was going on around them sat there shocked. Connor and Cara kneeled in front of Devlin as they need to respect their king. “Don’t hurt me more by seeing me as the king. Whoever I’m, I too have emotions, feelings, and relations. Sorry for hiding this everyone, but it was necessary to protect you all from the danger around you”. Devlin said and left to his room. Mary and Cara went to prepare something to eat as no one here has eaten since yesterday morning knowing that Devlin and Lucy were kidnapped. Jammie went and sat near his sweet pie who is crying silently. Even before going
After struggling with his bed for a long time, Devlin sat up on his bed and he can’t able to sleep peacefully when his mate is in pain. He tried to sleep but both his heart and his stupid wolf wants to be with Lucy and what his brain can do about that? He slept again with the determination that he will sleep this time, but simply after two seconds, he stood up and ran near the door of his room. He peeked outside to see whether Connor or Cara is in the hall but when he didn’t find anyone, he slowly started to walk towards her room with baby steps. ‘Go fast. Why are you walking like you break your bone? Our mate is the one who is in the pain, not you. How stupid she is to protect you?’ His wolf said wanting Devlin to exchange his wolf with anyone. “Are you bipolar Den? You’re the one who came out and killed Seer not me who is a simple human” Devlin said and his wolf went silent knowing that they both are not in a situation to play. They need to have their mate first.
