~Luciano~I clenched my hands into tight fists, restraining myself from punching the old man across the face because he was pissing me off."I don't have all day, Nikolai. You better go straight to the point and stop beating around the bush!"I said through gritted teeth and his lips curved into a smile."The half-breed deserves death, Luciano. I didn't care about her that much but when she stepped on my lane, I decided to place her where she belongs."The old man said and I couldn't help but wonder what the hell he was talking about."You're such a coward, Nikolai. You used the cowardly way because you knew that your plans wouldn't succeed if you used physical strength."The corner of my lips curved into a dim smile and I brushed hair strands from my face."There are so many ways to kill a rat, Luciano. I know you are young and you don't know why I did what I did. Now let me tell you because it seems like your father never mentioned anything to you about what we agreed on before he passe
~Hazel~"Hazel…"I heard a familiar voice that soothed my spirits and Mia purred in my head. I couldn't tell for how long I had missed listening to the voice.All I knew was that I had missed it so much.I turned my head slowly and looked towards the source of the voice and there he was, his grey eyes was gentle and his lips curved into a smile."Luciano…"I whispered his name, my voice croaky and my throat dry because I felt so thirsty."You're awake."The prince leaned in and brushed my dark hair strands from my face then tucked it behind my ear. I closed my eyes and moved a little bit close to feel more of his touch despite my weak body.Even though I couldn't tell how long, my body had missed his touch damn much."I missed you so much."He confessed, looking deep into my brown hazel eyes with gentleness. My heart stopped beating for a while because I couldn't believe my ear.I have been waiting to hear this words come from his lips for way too long.I didn't care if he was lying to me or
~Hazel~I blinked countless times to get rid of the blurry vision. I tried to toss on the comfortable bed but a strong arm held me in place.I tilted my head upwards to look at Luciano who was still sleeping peacefully, half of his face was covered with his jet-black hair and I smiled at the sight.The smile on my lips faded when many thoughts popped into my head. I couldn't help but get worried when I imagined one day watching him hold someone else's hand.I blinked countless times to hold back tears. I already knew what I caught myself into the day his d*ck went deep inside me.My heart ached when I gave it a thought. I know it would not last and that's why I don't want to get addicted to him because it would be painful to let go when that time comes.But…how am I supposed to de-touch myself from him when I'm already stuck to him like glue?A deep sigh escaped my lips and I tried to pull his hand slowly from my waist so that I could sneak out like what I did last time we had sex."Wh
~Luciano~"We're under attack."My heart pounded wildly against my ribcage when I heard Gamma's words. I stood up from the couch immediately and Hazel did the same thing.I asked my most trusted soldier Michael to come and guard my wing through the mind link because I didn't want Hazel to get hurt then.Hazel grabbed my hand so tightly and I turned around to look at her with creased eyebrows. I didn't have time to joke around, this was not the right time. For now, I have to protect my people."Not now brown eyes. I have to go and fight."I looked at her hand tightly wrapped on my arm then raised my head slowly to look deep in her brown Hazel eyes and all I could see was unexplainable fear."I'm going to help you fight."She said with determination, her voice bold and her eyes fierce. She looked like a fighting goddess and I couldn't help but raise my eyebrows at her."You are not in your strength, brown eyes. You're sick and weak to fight. I have asked my soldier to come and guard the roo
~Hazel~I tossed on the bed for the millionth time. I tried to close my eyes and get some sleep but I couldn't. There was an alien feeling that invaded my heart and I couldn't shake it away no matter how much I was trying to."Why is Luciano taking too long to come back to our room?" I mumbled under my breath.I climbed down off the bed, slipped into Luciano's big slippers nearby and headed for the door.I tried to open it but all my efforts were in vain,he had locked it from the outside. A deep sigh of defeat escaped my lips and I went back to bed.I couldn't fall asleep without Luciano beside me.I think I had grown too close to him. I wanted to know what he had found out about the attack too.When I was about to stand up and bang on the door so that anyone passing by could open it for me, the door clicked open and Luciano walked in.He looked so pissed off, his hair was a mess and I could easily tell that he raked it a couple of times. I couldn't help but frown at the sight.He walked
~Hazel~"What? Are you out of your mind, Hazel? How do you expect me to help you give the letter to someone who tried to attack our kingdom?"Hades questioned me and I felt some unexplainable bitterness in his voice."Luciano won't like it if he finds out that you wrote a letter for your ex-husband, trust me."Hades reasoned out and I took a deep breath.I recalled how possessively he held me in his arms as he thrust so deep and the way he made me confess some words."The letter doesn't have anything to do with the Southern secrets, trust me Hades. It's some personal stuff. You can read it if you think that I'm planning something behind your backs."I paused and heaved a deep sigh."I can do anything on this earth Hades but I would never betray Luciano. "I confessed and Hades went silent when he heard my words."Okay, I will help you out but first I need to read the letter and make sure that it doesn't have details that threaten our kingdom."He said and a deep sigh escaped my lips. I didn
~Hazel~"Well you can give them any punishment that you think suits them, it's fine with me."I smiled and shrugged nonchalantly. I wanted them to know that it'll be with any punishment that they would give them.I looked at Luciano and our eyes locked."No! I want you to be the one to decide. I told you that I would give you the permission to give them a punishment?"Luciano reminded me of the conversation that we had the night that I woke up from coma and my heart melted into a puddle.I couldn't believe that he remembered the conversation that we had. I never thought that he keeps every single conversation we always have at heart.The thought of it made me want to wrap my hands around him and kiss him so deeply. However,all I could do was look into those grey eyes that I had learned to love so much."What about they become slaves? I think that is enough punishment."I suggested and everyone in the room frowned at my words."Don't forget that those two women wanted to kill Luciano, that
~Sebastian~"How many times did I tell you that the dark prince is not someone you can joke around with, Sebastian!Have you finally agreed with me?"I raised my head to look at my beta Matteo.His eyes flashed in anger and his jaw twitched.He warned me a million and one times but I never listened to him.I was angry at the dark prince too!I clenched my hands into a tight fist untill my knuckles turned white."I swear he will regret it next time!"I said through gritted teeth and a deep breath escaped my lips."You need to get over this stupid obsession, Sebastian! How many lives are you willing to sacrifice just for one person? It has already been two months since Hazel was taken captive by the dark prince."Matteo paused to catch a breath, he ran his fingers through his brown hair and held onto it so tightly."You have not done anything since Hazel left. You have never made any effort to repair the pack, Sebastian. All you do is think about Hazel.Out of a thousand soldiers that you sent,

~Hazel~Another two weeks passed pretty quickly.Everything in our kingdom was going just fine. Business between our kingdom and other kingdoms was doing great.Southern Kingdom was trading with Mountain Pack and I was happy that we were on good terms. Seb came to visit the South often to observe the market in the South and studied ways to improve on his side.Sometimes Sebastian came along with Alexa to visit us.The twins were growing fast and they were healthy. Grandpa was so happy to see his grandchildren grow into strong and healthy kids. He was always happy whenever Alexa came to visit us."You need to get some sleep,"My mind jolted back to the present when I heard Luciano's voice. He pulled me into his arms and planted a gentle kiss on my hair.Luciano took half a day off from his kingship duties to spend some time with me. We went for our usual walks in the evening and it felt so good to hold hands as we walked around. My lips curved into a smile when the day's events clouded my
~Hazel~TWO WEEKS LATER I felt Luciano pull me close to himself and planted a gentle kiss on my hair and I hummed in response. I wrapped my hands around him so tightly,my lips curving into a smile."Good morning."His voice was raspy since he had just woken up from sleep. I blinked my eyes countless times to get rid of the blurry vision."Good morning too."I responded lazily and he chuckled, "Do you want to sleep some more? For me,I have to wake up since I have a lot of paperwork to take care of."Luciano informed me, giving my body a gentle squeeze."No! I would like to help the queen with the workload. She has been working a lot lately with the help of Monalisa and my mother. Many business proposals are coming in and we need to take care of them. I need to go through some pending kingdom reports too."I explained to Luciano and he was quiet for a while.The former queen has been working so much and I felt bad for her. I just wanted to help in some way even though she asked me to take a
~Luciano~The look on Hazel's face told me all. That is why I didn't mention to her where we were going for our honeymoon no matter how much she insisted.I wanted it to be a surprise."Do you like it?"I asked just to be sure.Her lips curved into a more bright smile when she heard my question and she nodded vigorously."It looks so beautiful."She said in a low voice that soothed my spirits and Liam groaned in my head."Let's get off the plane so that you can have a good view."I stood up and stretched my hand towards Hazel. She held onto it and stood up then followed behind me without a question. I liked it whenever Hazel was submissive to me because I'm used to her wild side.Hazel looked at the surrounding attentively. I have been here countless times. I usually came here whenever I wanted to pull my mind from work and have some alone time.Being here with Hazel was a different feeling. I turned my head to look at Hazel, admiring her hair which was being blown away by the weak wind c
~Hazel~I looked at Luciano,my husband,the father of my pups,the love of my life,you name it.I couldn't help it but smile."Yes, I do," I said in a gentle but firm voice,enough for everyone to hear that Luciano is exclusively mine now!I picked up the ring and slid it on Luciano's finger slowly,taking my time because it was my day.The crowd clapped for us.I looked my mother's way and she flashed me a broad smile, crying again."Is there anyone who has a reason why Hazel Del Mundo and Luciano Hernandez shouldn't get married? Please raise your hand."The judge said and we turned our heads to look at the crowd.It was silent and no one raised his/her hand in the air to oppose the wedding."Now I announce you as husband and wife."The royal judge said and the crowd cheered. I closed my eyes when Luciano leaned towards me,before I could wrap my head around what was going on,I felt his lips on mine."MINE!"He said in my head and Mia groaned in response. We are finally married! I'm exclusively h
~Hazel~TWO WEEKS LATERThe day that I have been waiting for for months is finally here. The day that Luciano is going to show the whole world that I'm his to hold and keep. I heaved a nervous sigh as the make-up artist continued to do there magic on my face, preparing me for the big day ahead of me.I spent the night in my mother's room and she woke me up early in the morning so that I could get ready for the day ahead of me.According to our traditions, I couldn't spend the night with Luciano before our wedding. I tried my best to get some sleep but I couldn't bring myself to sleep because I was anxious.Monalisa stayed in my mother's room for some time then went to her room to have a rest. Alexa and Sebastian have come back to the Southern kingdom again to attend my wedding.The make-up artists stepped aside when they were done with their work. I was sitting on the chair before the vanity mirror, I turned my head to look at myself and my lips curved into a satisfied smile."You loo
~Hazel~Despite feeling tired,I lazily stood up from the couch and walked to Luciano who was walking to me and we met midway.Luciano wrapped his strong hands around me, "I'm happy that you chose me."He whispered and his grip on my body only tightened.We pulled off after basking in each other's arms for a while.Luciano brushed hair strands from my face and tucked it behind my ear.I looked into those grey eyes and all I saw was care and affection."I will always choose you over and over again."I whispered but loud enough for him to hear.Before I could say more words,he locked our lips and kissed me deeply."I have been holding back from doing this to you for way too long."He told me through the mind-link as he continued to kiss me passionately.I was breathless when Luciano pulled off and I gasped for air greedily.The corner of his lips curved into a smile."I told you that I would come back to you, didn't I?"He asked with a raised eyebrow and I couldn't help but roll my eyes at his wo
~Hazel~Luciano pulled me carefully into his arms and patted my back to help me calm down. I held onto his golden robe so tightly as though my life depended on it and hugged him back."I would like us to go back to the castle so badly, Hazel. However,I can't because I need to talk to kings and queens from other kingdoms so that I can make allays and talk about trade between the kingdoms."Luciano told me through the mind-link and gave my body a gentle squeeze."I'm happy that you chose me."He said and I heard the happiness in his voice. He pulled off and looked at me as though he couldn't believe that indeed I chose him over Andrian."What about I ask Jonas Robert and Jonas to take you back to the castle? They will be accompanied by other soldiers for security, to make sure that you're going to be safe."Luciano suggested and I nodded my head at his words."I promise I will come back to you when I'm done with everything. I'm going to ask your mother to accompany you so that you don't ge
~Hazel~"MATE!" Mia purred in my head, just confirming to me that we had finally met our mate after twenty-five years.I searched my eyes in the crowd and tried to trace the scent.However, I couldn't see him.The scent became stronger with each passing second and my wolf fought for release so that she could go to meet her destined mate for the very first time."Hazel,Hazel."Luciano's worried voice woke me up from the trance that I was in and I turned my head to look at him and tears flowed freely from my eyes."I can smell his scent in the air, Luciano. He is around, my mate is around."I informed Luciano and he tensed when he heard my words but composed immediately."What?"He asked in a low voice but I could see fear in his eyes. I know he was afraid of losing me and so was I."Promise me that you're not going to give in to the mate bond, Hazel.You are Mine!"Luciano said possessively and gave my hand a tight squeeze.I wrapped my hands around Luciano so tightly without a care in the w
