King Derek's POV

I woke up suddenly from my sleep and gasped for breath as my breath became faster and shaky. What type of dream is this? I asked myself in a low tone as I wore a puzzled face. It was more of a nightmare than a dream. In the dream, I saw Eleanor being maltreated as if she was an animal. Even an animal is well treated more than she was being treated in that dream. I exhaled sharply as I tried to stand up from the bed. I sat upright on the bed, sitting on the edge of the bed.

She was being beaten at any chance they got. I saw Ethan torture her in the dream. I tried to help her, but I was unable to help her in the dream. Could this dream mean something? Could she be in danger at Ethan's pack house? I shrugged it off immediately and decided to get prepared for the day's activity.

I tried to get it out of my mind, but it was not ready to get off my head. I remembered the last time I was in Ethan's pack house facing Eleanor and ready to get her out of the pack house, but

    King Derek's POVSitting on my bed in my room as thoughts ran through my mind. I could not take my mind off Eleanor. I could only imagine how she had been fairing in Ethan's pack house. I heaved a sigh as I stood up from my bed and walked towards the window in the room. The sun was already up and shining bright and hot. Everywhere in the place was buzzing with maids doing their activities all around the palace. I felt uneasy, I was unable to stop thinking. I heaved a heavy sigh as I walked back to the edge of the bed.I stopped abruptly as a thought struck my mind. It has been days since I planted a spy in Ethan's pack house to get information on what was going on in the pack house. From the plan, he was supposed to have come yesterday, but he has not shown up yet. What could have happened? Was he caught? I felt uneasy as different questions ran through my mind. I began to pace around the room, unsure of what I was feeling at that particular time. I had mixed feelings of fear and ange

    King Derek's POV"Let her in at once" I yelled at my guards the moment I spotted my son in her arms. They heed my order and opened the door for her to come in, fear gripped me as I saw her carrying only my son with no sign of Eleanor."What happened, why isn't his mother with him? Where is Eleanor" I flooded her with so many questions as panic surged through me."Calm down King Derek, let the woman catch her breath first," Lucas said to me calmly as I tried to control my emotions "Hey you" he turned to one of the guards "Call the maids to attend to the baby immediately" "I am so sorry, please what is your name," I asked apologizing to her for my initial behavior."Mara, my name is Mara I am a maid at King Ethan's pack" she replied trying to catch her breath, it was evident that she was tired but I was too worried about Eleanor to care."Please have a seat, Mara," Lucas gestured to her to sit down and ordered the guards to bring her water.

    Ethan's POV "What do you mean she escaped with the child" I yelled angrily to the guard who told me that the maid I put in charge of taking care of Eleanor's baby had disappeared with the child. My blood boiled as the news reached my ears. How could she do this? The anger surged through me like a raging wildfire, consuming every inch of my being. My fists clenched so tight that my knuckles turned white, and my jaw tensed with fury."Find her this minute, I don't care if you are going to break down the whole Palace, just bring that baby to me," I said to the guards as they all took to their heels to find the child.My face flushed with a mix of frustration and betrayal. Mara has been in my service for years and she has been loyal that's why I entrusted her with Eleanor's child I couldn't fathom why she would resort to such drastic measures. The weight of her actions bore down on me, making it hard to breathe. How could she think I would let her get away with this?"You messed with th

    King Derek's POV "So what is the information about the witch you wanted to tell me" I asked as we walked into my room, Lucas suggested we go somewhere private away from spies."The witch was using you and Ethan," he said plainly "Me and Ethan, what does me and Ethan have in common that is of use to her?" I asked confused as ever. I couldn't think of one reason why she would be using us in particular."Power, that's the one thing you and Ethan have in common, in the whole of the werewolf and lycan community, you and Ethan are the strongest alpha. So she targets the strongest and uses their weakness against them" he explained further. Everything he was saying sounded new to me, I thought the witch was working with Ethan to spy on me and I am just finding out that she is using us both."So what's her gain? To bring war or what?" I asked, looking as confused as ever.Lucas averted his gaze from mine, he shook his head in pity as if the reason was too big for his mouth to carry. "She is

    King Derek's POVI heaved a heavy sigh as I squeezed the life out of the traitor and liar who deceived me the entire time. Killing her gave me the satisfaction that I had so much craved. I watched her lay helplessly on the floor, lifeless. I stood there, staring at her motionless body, wondering what I could do with the remains of her lifeless body. I felt a strong wave of relief wash through my whole body. I remembered all the evil advice she gave me and how she made me kill innocent people. I exhaled heavily as I watched her lifeless body on the ground. How could she be this evil? I thought. She was responsible for all that happened and all that is presently happening. Eleanor is going through torture and hell, all because of her. I inhaled deeply as I closed my eyes, to the satisfaction I felt from killing Araceli. My next aim is to bring back Eleanor to the palace, safe and sound. My heart raced faster each time I remembered how she was being maltreated in Ethan's pack house. Sh

I laid down on the floor there, and I tried to sit up and rest my back against the wall. I sat against the wall, still holding my head tightly as the pain intensified. I took a deep breath as I rubbed my forehead slowly, wiping my face with my palm. My heart pounded harder as my breath raced faster. My heart felt like it was about to jump out of my chest.Something was unusual. There was no noise from the pack house. No noise from maids doing their activities and also the palace workers going about too. I suddenly opened my eyes, looking around the room. It felt like my eyes were shrouded with a dark cloud, but they became familiar with the environment after a moment. I looked around in shock to find out I was in a new cell. How did I get here? I asked in my thoughts. I managed to stand up from where I sat, going toward the door slowly. I banged

Lucas stopped abruptly, clearing his throat as he exhaled deeply.“What about the baby?” He asked as he wore a concerned look on his face. “The maid will take care of him,” I replied calmly as I tilted my head to look at him, and we continued to walk in the direction of the yard. In no time, we were standing in the yard where the whole army was gathered with their weapons all set. They all bowed down in unison to greet me and I gestured, tilting my head to see all of them. I turned to Lucas, giving him a brief stare, gesturing to him to bring his ears.“What's the plan?” I whispered lowly into his ears. I leaned backward, looking directly into his eyes. He heaved a sigh as he pointed to the car that we should hop on the car. We walked to the car and the warriors chanted war songs. It reminded me of t

I turned to look at the back, turning back to look at her, exhaling heavily.“You what?” I asked curiously as I looked puzzled. Lucas walked slowly towards the door, and the maid bowed as he approached. She was trembling obviously, as her hands were shaky when she pointed into the room again. “The baby.” She managed to say as she pointed again. I turned to look in the direction of his crib. He seemed to be sleeping peacefully. “What happened to him?” Lucas asked curiously as he looked at the maid with a straight face, making me turn towards her. I walked towards the baby to check on him as I did not understand what the maid was saying there. He was still sleeping as I tapped him gently.
