Zeus's POV

My head hurts so much, even my heart aches. Seeing her cry the way she did made me feel so guilty. But then, how could she do such a thing to me? I thought that Selene was the most innocent of them. How come she even dared to drug me? How did she even do it?

Was this why, despite my growing feelings for her, I just didn't feel comfortable enough to allow her to serve me a meal without tasting it? Moon goddess, what have I ever done to deserve this hateful life from you? First, you delay the meeting of my mate for a long time, until I'm 28 years of age, then you brought an Abnormal person for me?

As if it's not bad enough, you allowed her to poison me. Gosh, what can I do? When she had said she wanted to tell me something and she seemed so scared, I couldn't guess that somehow it was this. I was rather ready to believe that she had maybe mated with someone else and was now pregnant for them. That would be...

Thinking about it, if that was what she had told me, I don't think

How dare you do such a wicked thing to Alpha Zeus? Now you have ruined my chances? Never! I will never allow him to slip out of my hands. I will do any and everything in my power to gain him, even if it means serving him myself."Listen, miss, Alpha Zeus isn't in the best of moods now. His company, his pack, his life, there is so much going on now and you are the least problem he wants to add to the list.""I'm not a problem!" I scoffed. "I care about him, I want to help him get through this heartbreak.""Well, he thinks otherwise. He doesn't want you, he doesn't care about you, so I would advise you to leave and not return. At least until his emotions are more stable and more controllable." He explained. Who was this alien and what the hell was he saying? How can he tell me to not bother about Alpha Zeus?

What was so funny?"You could have signaled for me to leave since you had a guest, at least I would have-""You would have still gone ahead and said whatever it is you had wanted to say, and you wouldn't regard my guest because you don't believe that anyone else can bring Alpha Zeus in, except you."

    Selene's POVI stared impatiently at the clock as it ticked past 10 pm, anxiety gripping my heart. With each passing minute, my worry deepened. I couldn't remember how many times I had glanced at the door hoping that Alpha Orion would come in.He left the house early today to check on the border walls that were rumored to have been the enemy's camp out. Nightfall pack our rival pack were rumored to have camped close to our border, waiting for the perfect time to ambush us and immediately Orion got the news, he had left home without even eating breakfast.The night stretched long and still, there was no sight of him. I paced around the room repeatedly when suddenly, I felt a sharp pain in my lower abdomen. I thought it was nothing but the normal contractions I had during pregnancy and besides I wasn't due till after a month.I took another step and I felt something warm and wet trickling down my thighs. The pain intensified and I was forced to let out a cry. The door was flung open as

    Selene's POV I shivered as goosebumps flooded my skin due to the cold. I pulled up closer to the walls, trying to find some warmth disregarding the fact that the dungeon I was currently in had a foul odour. My hand brushed across the blood on the wall and I hurriedly retrieved them. I was cold and in pain. My eyes hurt from crying so hard. I moved away from the bloody walls but ended up stumbling against the bones I had been desperately trying to avoid. There were skulls and different body parts of the deceased, I shuddered just thinking about what the owner of those body parts must have gone through to end up like that.I suddenly heard footsteps approaching which was strange. This was my second day in the dungeon but no one has ever come this way. Was it Orion? Did he realize I was innocent of his accusations? A flicker of hope bloomed in my heart as I rushed towards the old rusty bars. I held the bars to support myself repeatedly trying to glance at the person approaching. My sm

For the past two hours I have been sitting here going through the atrocities committed by the Alpha of the Blackpeak pack. I banged my hands on the table angrily and the sound reverberated across the room."Jacob!" I growled. A second barely passed before he rushed in."Alpha King, you called for me." My beta, Jacob answered."What's all these?" I inquired, pointing towards the file."Those are the reports I got on Blackpeak pack for the past few months Alpha." He explained."Blackpeak pack again? Aside from their extortion from the poor by using tax payment as an excuse, Alpha Orion's pack also has the highest rate of poverty. He has refused to pay his employees?" I inquired in disbelief.Jacob nodded. "Yes, Alpha King. I also got reports of some of his pack members deaths. A border fell recently. It was rumored to have been

    KING Zeus POV My senses were heightened the moment she was brought before me. The air cracked with an undeniable force, a magnetic pull that went beyond before mere physical attraction. She raised her head even though all prisoners had their head bowed. Her eyes widened and I felt the flicker of emotion in them, it was the mate bond. The connection surged through my veins and blood, confirming her status as my destined partner. It was obvious she felt it too, after a few minutes of running her eyes over me, she hurriedly averted her gaze, bowing to me like every prisoner. Although my insides were in turmoil, I maintained a straight face in front of everyone. Our exchange was only for a brief moment for the people present but to us it felt like an eternity. "Jacob," I called out, gazing at other prisoners who were shaking like leaves. "Yes, my King." His polite reply came. "Retreat everyone back to the dungeon. I will attend to this matter soon." I ordered. He shot me a surpris

I don't understand what you are trying to say.” I denied it for the third time with a straight face.He stood there staring down at me intently and his expression did not change one bit.“You heard me and you're coming with me.” He repeated.Before I could say Jack he went out of the dungeon and arrived with a young man whom he ordered to open the door to the dungeon and let me out.“What are you doing?” I questioned as the man fumbled with the padlocks.“I said earlier that you're coming with me.” He repeatedly ignored the shock on my face.The man finally opened the dungeon and he ordered

Here I was, growing goosebumps and sweating in my armpits as I prayed to the Moon Goddess that Selene made the right choice. Not only did Orion maltreat her, but he chose to believe his ex over his mate and someone who was carrying his child. Therefore he wasn't a good mate and fit to be with him. The way he has even tried to manipulate her into choosing him already said the same thing that the guy was nothing but a manipulator. "Hey, Selene... Nobody is pressuring you. Just choose from your heart. I'm not forcing-""I choose to go with you, my King." She said almost immediately, cutting me off."You do?" I choked out, unsure of what I heard."Yes, my King. As long as you want me to." She added."Of course I do," I said, trying hard to hide my smile."Is the carriage ready?" I asked my men."Yes, Alpha. Everything is ready." They responded.Orion and Vivan stood

    Candice's POVOh my gosh. I can't believe that the innocent-looking Selene dared to poison Zeus. I can't just believe that. And despite my hatred for her, if I hadn't been there when she confessed, I would have never believed her.Oh, but what gladdens me the most is that Zeus chased her away. He looks so distraught, but there's nothing I can't do to fix that. After all, years of being a stripper at a nightclub have taught me a lot about making men happier.I walked over to where he sat, in her bedroom. I stood before him, waiting for him to at least acknowledge my presence."Alpha Zeus, I can tell that you are very pissed about this. Tensed too." I began. "Let me help you with a little physiotherapy that can assist to cure you a little."He didn't respond to me at all, and I felt like he wanted me to go ahead, so I put my hands forward to touch his shoulder, but he easily shrugged me off. I scowled as I didn't understand why he would still not want me to touch him."I understand the

Of course, this will affect Zeus's judgment.I noticed how calm he was, even after hearing what I said. I cried all the more, but somewhere, I had this hope that he would forgive me and say it was okay. I'm not a terrible person like my parents."Did you do it?" That was all he asked.I was too afraid to admit it. I could just say it was a prank and that I never allowed my father to speak to me, but that would only make. I live with the guilt for a longer period. I couldn't deal with it anymore. I have to let it out."Did you do it, Selene?!" He yelled and I shook with fear. I heard a snicker from outside and I felt my blood boil despite my sorry situation."I'm sorry, Zeus-""Don't you dare to take my name from your mouth? You are lying, snitch!" He yelled. It was like someone room a knife and pierced it into my heart, twisting and turning it

    Zeus's POVSo Selene's father was here this morning. Was that where she got those gifts from? Is she the plan her father is talking about? So they want to use her against me? Will she allow herself to be used?I glanced at her and I noticed she was about to cry. My heart ached for her. I could only imagine how she felt, being used by her parents for evil."That's alright, Damian," I said. "Please sit and join us for breakfast."Damian had a look of shock on his face. Was it because I said please? He didn't have to make it look that bad. I ignored the look on his face as well as the look on Selene's face. My mind was stuck at the point where Selene could be the weapon used against me. She had carefully webbed her way through my heart; was she going to allow herself to be used?The way she put her face down, it felt as though something bad was going to happen. I shrugged the feeling off and enjoyed Selene's cooking of gratitude. After the meal, I sent her off to her room while I continu

    Selene's POVMy father, here to see me? Apologizing? This is worse than anything I've ever heard.I stared at the small bottle that stood pretty on my table. How could I trust him to serve the antidote to Zeus? What if it wasn't an antidote? Would I have to test it? But on who would I test it on?I unwrapped the gift he claimed was from his wife. I would never acknowledge that woman as my mother or as a mother, to begin with. She wasn't fit to be called a mother. She never did anything which other mothers did and that was enough reason for me to never call her mother.I noticed freshly baked cookies. I smelled them, and they smelled wonderful; I could detect every ingredient in them, and it was exactly like I used to like when things were easier for me as a member of the household. When Mama and Papa still felt like there would be a chance for me to speak.But thanks to my training, I could also pick up a scent. And that scent was unmistakable, it was the scent of one of my greatest a

    Beta Brent's POVEarly the following morning, I was set on my way to Alpha Zeus's castle. I got into my car and just as I started the engine, my wife hurried out with a package in her hands."What's that?" I asked. "I told you that I don't want to eat now.""It's not for you, silly! It's for Selene. Tell her that I prepared her favorite meal. Tell her we all want her back."I was surprised that my wife even knew what Selene's favorite meal was. This came as a huge shock because I could count the number of times I saw Selene eat at home, and it was less than ten times. Maybe because I was always busy and not usually around. Most times when I returned, she would be in her room, crying or sulking. After a while, she happened to just get used to everything and rather stayed silent."Alright," I said, collecting the flask from her. She also gave me some jewelry and a new dress. Even I was surprised that she was doing so many good things for Selene. I wonder how surprised Selene would be.I

Of late, whenever I dressed up to go out, they suddenly began to ask me where I was headed."Alpha Rodrigo has summoned me. I have to answer him." I answered. "You can cover the food up for me, honey, when I get back, I will eat.""Oh, but you can't just leave. You-""You know how Alpha Rodrigo is..." I tried to plead.She went quiet. "is this still about Selene? Has she locked his wolf? Why hasn't she poisoned him yet?""She returned the poison to me." I answered. "which means that she has locked his wolf but hasn't fed him the poison that will kill him.""Well, you can trick her into doing it." I paused and turned to stare at her. "Trick her?""Sure, Dad."
