CHAPTER THREE
-WILHELMINA-
Boris broke the silence with a loud cough, causing us to turn and face him. His dark eyes held a dangerous glint. "Thorin, shouldn't you be off helping Weldon train the other warriors."
His tone was clipped, a subtle rebuke in his words. Thorin, seemingly not affected, nodded at him. "Of course, Alpha," he
CHAPTER THREE-WILHELMINA-Cold fear gripped me as I realized the gravity of my situation. I was alone with a man who saw me as nothing more than a prize to be claimed, his Luna... and there was no escape. Boris's hand was like iron on my wrist, his other hand fisting my gown as he bunched it up, exposing my thighs. My mind raced, trying to think of a way out of this situation. As he kissed and nipped at my exposed skin, I knew I had to act fast, or I risked losing any semblance of control left.Gathering all my strength, I brought my knee up hard into his crotch. Boris's gr
CHAPTER FOUR-ANTONIO-The grand hall of the Lycan Kingdom was a sight to behold, fitting for a celebration of the cherished Princess Alina's coming of age. A colossal room, adorned ornately at every corner, shone brightly under the glint of countless chandeliers that hung like stars in an impossibly high ceiling. The marble floor reflected the glittering lights, casting a warm, ethereal glow throughout the room. On one end of the hall stood an immense table set for a feast. Heaping platters of roast game and fish filled the air with tantalizing smells, while fruits and pastries were artfully arranged on delicate china. Silver goblets br
CHAPTER FOUR-ANTONIO-There was another pause before Kinnison began again, "Brother, we must not let the weight of expectation shackle our spirit. We are bound by duty, true, but we are also free men with our own passions and dreams." His words echoed through the garden, resonating with the soft rustle of leaves in the cool night breeze.Antonio turned to look at him, his blue eyes meeting Kinnison under the silvery moonlight. A small smile played on his lips as he picked up his flute again. "Always so wise and noble, my brother," he said, his voice laced with sincere admir
CHAPTER FOUR-ANTONIO-It was now late into the night, almost midnight, and the celebration was coming to its last event; the Run. The Run was an age-old royal tradition. It was a game, a chase under the dance of moonlight. Only the King and Queen's children were allowed to participate in the event. Whichever of the royal offspring reached the age of maturity would have to compete against their older siblings. This would demonstrate the royal's skills and formally initiate them into the competition for becoming the future ruler of the Lycan Empire. Tonight, under the moon, Alina would prove her worth as the princess of the Lycan Empire.
CHAPTER FOUR-ANTONIO-As he emerged from the shadows of the forest, Antonio's gaze was immediately drawn to the sight before him. In the center of a natural amphitheater, illuminated by the silvery moonlight and drenched in heavy rain, two werewolves stood in the field. The rain coated their bodies, reflecting the moon's glow. His eyes narrowed at the sight – a male and a female, both regal and powerful in their own right.The aroma grew more potent, making it clear that the alluring scent was emanating from the female werewolf. She laid on the ground, so radiant and majest
CHAPTER FOUR-ANTONIO-Antonio finally made his way back to the Lycan Empire. The heavy rain had stopped, and now there were countless stars twinkling in the night sky. The moon illuminated the land with a bright glow. He shifted back into his human form, looking up at the palace, a towering fortress of ancient, weathered stone and high turrets. His sapphire eyes were dull by fatigue and heavy with untold emotions.With a deep breath, Antonio steeled himself to face the questions that awaited him inside. He was aware that his family would be curious about his whereabouts, es
CHAPTER FOUR-ANTONIO-Kinnsion remained silent for a while, mulling over Antonio's words. His gaze was far away, lost in thought. Kinnsion spoke with determination. "We won't involve father in this situation. I will take it upon myself to investigate and deal with it. Is that clear?""Perfectly," Antonio replied, relief washing over him like a cool tide. There was a nod of unspoken gratitude in his eyes which Kinnsion silently acknowledged with a small nod of his own."Good. Now, let's talk about this scent you
CHAPTER FOUR-ANTONIO-The whole night, Antoni tossed and turned in his bed, the sheets tangling around his legs. He had spent the entire night wrestling with his thoughts, swinging between reason and desire. The room felt cold, striking a deep contrast with his racing heart which seemed to be set afire by every thought of her.Filled with a restless energy, he abandoned his bed and made his way to the balcony. The cool night air brushed his skin like a lover's caress as he took in the breathtaking vista of their lands stretching out before him. The rolling landscape was bat
CHAPTER THIRTEEN-WILHELMINA-From the window of Weldon's car, I observed the plane taking off in the distance. Severa was leaving with Maria, accompanied by Mr. and Mrs. Arnet. It would be some time before I saw them again. Weldon had suggested that I go with them, but I quickly shut down that idea. I was done being a helpless damsel; I would fight my own battles, with or without men by my side, even if one of them happened to be Antonio.Boris and Trisha were my adversaries. It was their actions that led me to this predicament, and now it was up to me to find a solution. A
CHAPTER THIRTEEN-BORIS-The arrogant Lycan actually believed he could steal my woman away from me! Who did he think he was? Just some pompous prince? That didn't mean anything to me!I stormed through the halls of Gravemaw Mansion, my fists tightly clenched. The servants wisely stepped aside as I made my way past them; they knew not to interfere with my seething rage."Boris," a familiar voice called out from around the corner. It was my mother. Her expression was unreadable as usual. "Follow me. We need to tal
CHAPTER THIRTEEN-SEVERA-Thorin kept his promise and brought me back to my family's home the next day. The drive there was quiet, both of us lost in our thoughts. I knew he could sense my anxiety.Thorin looked at me, his brown eyes softening. "Severa, you'll get through this," he murmured, placing a comforting hand on top of mine that was clenched on my lap."I know," I responded, trying to smile at him.My gaze dropped to his neck, where I had le
CHAPTER THIRTEEN-WILHELMINA-Maria and Severa stood close together, their arms locked. I stood before them like a shield, savagely determined to protect them at all costs."What do you want, Remus?" I asked.His laugh was a cold echo in the room, chilling me to my bones. "You're not naive, Wilhelmina," he chuckled. "You understand why I'm here. The Alpha demands the return of his fiancés.""We aren't going anywhere," I said, my voice low and threateni
CHAPTER THIRTEEN-WILHELMINA-It had been roughly a week since we uncovered that Trisha was responsible for the manipulated feelings between Prince Kinnsion and Eris, utilizing a Potion of Charm, while also pressuring Estrada into creating said potion.Antonio, Weldon, and Thorin had confronted Boris and Trisha about their criminal activities, sparking the beginning of an investigation. Antonio had also revealed our mate bond to them during the confrontation.Antonio warned us that there were spies from the Lyca
CHAPTER TWELVE-ERIS-We were now aboard a plane, en route to the Lycan Empire. The group consisted of myself, Hiro, Princess Alina, Kinnsion, Nora, and Estrada. The tension inside the aircraft was palpable, the air felt thin and suffocating, the silence echoing louder than the hum of the plane's engines.Hiro had originally been sitting across from me, but he eventually moved to sit across from Princess Alina. The two of them were now murmuring quietly to each other.Nora and Estrada were situated far from us, each engr
CHAPTER TWELVE-ERIS-Exhaustion consumed me. My head throbbed and my body felt like it had been run over by a truck. Even my emotions were worn out. It had been two days since Mrs. Arnet cured both Kinnsion and myself of the Potion of Charm. I could still remember the sensation of being cured so vividly.A cooling wave washed over me, erasing the shimmering illusion that had once trapped my mind. I remember looking into Kinnsion's eyes, seeing his love for me dwindle. Our love wasn't real. It was manufactured by a potion, by magic, nothing more. It left a hollow feeling in my heart
CHAPTER TWELVE-HIRO-Prince Antonio then turned to me. "Hiro," he said in a more gentle tone, "could you please explain how you came to be in the basement of the Alpha's Estate?"A slight chill ran down my spine as I nodded in agreement. I took a deep breath and began recounting the events that unfolded, starting from our mother's order to Eris and I."It all began a few days ago when Prince Kinnsion and Princess Alina came to visit," I explained. "Our mother commanded us to use the Potion of Charm to make them fall in
CHAPTER TWELVE-HIRO-Glancing around, I could feel the tense atmosphere in the room. Everyone seemed to know something that I didn't. I turned to Eris. She seemed uneasy, her usually flushed cheeks now drained of color. "What's going on?" I asked, bewildered by the sudden shift in mood.Eris remained silent, her gaze fixed on Prince Kinnsion. Her eyes glimmered with pain and sadness.Prince Antonio let out a heavy sigh, then turned back to me. "This could mean your father is involved in your brother's and mothe
