Diane's POV

My heart was ramming so fast in my chest that I thought I was going to die as Lucius took steps toward me. There was nowhere for me to run.

Tears streamed down my face as I recalled once again how foolish I was for putting myself in this situation.

I should have never accepted to marry him. It was crazy to even imagine. But it was also too late to regret now.

As Lucius got closer, I closed my eyes and anticipated one of those sharp claws I had seen those men produce from their hands slicing through me.

But it never happened. I felt nothing but his hot breath on my skin.

I pulled one eye open and I met him staring softly into my eyes.

"Diane, this is what I am. We are creatures different from your kind but we are not monsters —well, some of us aren't..." He trailed.

I opened the second eye and looked up at him and all I wanted to do was scream for help but something else seemed to have taken over my subconscious.

Once again, I was drawn into his persistent eyes. I could sud

    Diane's POVSophie let the band of people back into the room and they quickly ushered me to a seat. One started working on my hair while another worked on my face. Another two divided themselves with my fingernails and toenails.I should have felt pampered but somehow, I felt uncomfortable as I had no idea why they were doing all of these things to me.Sophie mentioned that it was for a mating ceremony. Lucius had said it too but I had no idea what it was."This is more like a preparation process," the one working on my hair began. "Usually, it takes about a month for things like this but since the beta said this was a special case we had no choice but to pull up the entire team at once. I hope you don't mind?" he asked like I had another choice.I rolled my eyes and decided to ask him something else entirely. "Can I ask you something..."His fingers paused in my hair and he looked at my face through the mirror. "Sure, anything at all. Ask away," he beamed at me and continued massagin

    Lucius POV"So why did you call for us barely a few days after the last meeting?" Kasper asked, his pride rising above his head.Rather than give him a straight reply, I got up from my chair and moved toward him. The room felt silent as everyone looked at me wondering what I was going to do. Even Kasper himself didn't look so confident anymore. He blinked his eyes multiple times and he didn't know if he should smile or cry as he watched me approach him.If he had the choice, he would have run out of the room but he didn't want his followers to laugh at him. I had realized that he was the top of the pack for them and all I had to do to keep the others under check was to get him under control and the rest would be too scared to retaliate.I didn't rush, I took my time, walking toward him with excruciatingly slow steps that only increased the pressure he was starting to feel.Another one who couldn't even look me in the face was the old gamma. I had called for him as well. I wanted him

    Diane's POV I managed to convince Jolynn to mark out a map for me and quickly, I marched out of the dungeon with the paper securely tucked in my pockets.I avoided the guards, keeping my head low as I returned to my chambers. The team supposed to work on my face and hair was still there waiting for me.As much as I wanted to start executing my plans right that second, I knew that asking them to leave would only make my motives suspicious, so for the first time, I followed Sophie's advice."I am sorry the conversation with Lucas took a while. You may continue," I offered with a fake apologetic smile."No problem," their leader beamed and they happily welcomed me back into their work chair. They continued their work and I sat impatiently counting the seconds till they could go so I would get to speak to Sophie.I decided I wasn't going to tell them that I got the map to the back doors from Jolynn, they would not believe her considering she had kidnapped me. I knew I shouldn't be trusti

  • The Alpha King's Baby   The Escape

    Diane's POV My heart was heavy from my grandfather's choices but I knew I had no other choice than to protect the others who were more willing to leave this hell hole —and that was Sophie and Owen. They didn't deserve to be here. This was my mess. They were completely innocent and my grandfather had the right to make his own choices.I walked out of the room and joined Sophie who was standing over a guard sprawled on the floor right in the middle of the corridor looking like a superhero.My eyes widened in shock and I looked between Sophie and the man. As I was about to speak, my eyes caught even more bodies in the corridor behind her.At first, I had thought she got lucky and probably hit the guard on the head with something but seeing more than ten guards and a woman knocked out, she couldn't have fought with them."What did you do to them?" I squeaked, the bodies behind her wearily. My eyes caught one with his head in an awkward angle and my throat went dry."You didn't kill them

    Lucius POVMy eyes fell on the stylists I had contracted for her. They were sprawled on the floor in strange positions and the guards outside were also in the same situation.As I saw this, my heart squeezed as I feared the worst might have happened. Did someone attack them? Did Jolynn and Kasper try something stupid?My wolf was tearing through my brain wanting to be let out so he could punish anyone who had dared to do this. I was growing with anger as the seconds passed.But I had to be calm if I was going to find her. My eyes focused deeply on the stylist in front of me and I could pick up his heartbeat.If Diane had been attacked by my enemies, they would have killed the men with her and the guards but they didn't look dead. It only meant that something else had happened. I had to be certain they were truly fine, so I looked in my brother's direction, "Lucas check if they are breathing?"Lucas moved past me and bent over the first man. He placed two of his fingers to his nose an

    Diane's POV "Diane, you need to understand that this is beyond what you are seeing. Lucius isn't the beast you are making him out to be. He is your soulmate and all he wants is to take care of you!" My grandfather cried out.My heart broke into smaller pieces as his words reached my brain. I could not believe the words coming out of him."Grandfather, how can you say that? Did he do something to you?! Did he put you into this? Did he threaten you?" I asked, trying desperately to understand what would make him betray his family like this.But he could not speak anymore. His eyes dropped to the ground, unable to look at me."Please tell me if he threatened you... It will stop this pain I am feeling in my heart."Sophie moved closer to where I stood and she placed her hands on my shoulder. "Let it go, Diane, there is no point now. We should think of how to get out of here and forget Fred," she said but I shook my head and pushed her hand away."No, Sophie, look around you!" I yelled poi

But of course, Lucius and his men didn't have to know that little detail.As we got to the castle, Lucius led me to his chambers where the unhappy stylists started brushing through my hair while another used a wet cloth to take out the sweat and stains I got from the Forest. There was no time for me to get a bath because according to the guards that had ushered us in, the ceremony was about to start.He and his team worked as fast as robots, when they finished, I was in a white dress that left nothing to the imagination.It was beautiful, but I couldn't help but feel naked in it. As if he had read my thoughts, the head stylist spoke up."It is usually our tradition, for the future Luna to stand naked amongst her people," he said a

My eyes popped out of their sockets and I couldn't even think of the fear of losing them because the fear of what was about to happen froze my entire thinking cells."What?" I cried out.Lucius looked around as if he was trying to find someone and then before I knew it, he grabbed my hands and pulled me to a corridor, away from the podium.He pulled a door open and pushed me inside."Diane, this is the final stage. I will protect your body as much as I can. I will even try to make it quick but you need to enjoy it." He didn't sound like he was angry with me or that this was supposed to be a do-or-die affair... He sounded desperate but I didn't even have a single energy in me to react accordingly. My body was still shocked."We will have sex in public! Are you insane?" I cried out, unable to contain it anymore.I moved away from him as my chest moved up and down in shock and another emotion I couldn't even describe."And you are saying you will

    Diane’s POVI felt something within me shift and before I could stop myself, I threw myself against Scarred-face, screaming my lungs out.“Let my baby go!” I screamed.In my mind, I was so sure that I would manage to create enough distractions to take Owen from them and run as far as I could, but all those moves were only in my head. I didn’t even get far before Liam grabbed me roughly by the arm.“Where do you think you are going? The party is just starting…” he growled and threw me hard towards the bed. My head hit the bedframe and I felt my consciousness dwindle before my eyes.I blinked, panicking even stronger. If anything happened to me now, I wouldn’t be able to protect Owen anymore. I would fail once again in protecting my baby.“Mummy!” Owen screamed and I tried to raise myself from the ground despite the dizziness in my head.I refused to give up.

I still remembered the route we had taken while coming, so I traced it back to my room.I was about to take the final bend when I heard a deafening growl from a room on my right. The blood within my body froze and panic started drumming through my skin.They said anyone who knew could be rescued, so I let my curiosity lead me to the side of the wall where I could get a good angle to see what was happening in that room.“No!” the roar echoed out of the room once again. “Keith can’t die like that!” he screamed again, and I watched as Liam held his head and dropped to the ground with tears in his eyes.“My lord, I saw the body with my two eyes. Lucius had made sure there would be no regeneration for him. He is dead-” a man covered in a hood was saying.I covered my mouth as the realization of what this meant flooded through

    Lucius’s POV“Are you sure we are heading in the right direction?” I asked Monique for the third time since we have been on the road. I noticed that we had been going around the same places for close to two hours now and she just sat there with a smug look on her face, watching me as I drove as if I was a new show in a cinema.“Monique? Didn’t you hear me?” I asked, throwing a glance in her direction. She was now sitting with her legs spread apart and the skirt barely visible anymore.“Hmmm, yeah… yes, of course… just keep going…” she said, waving her hand to the screen while her eyes remained on me.My wolf twisted with disgust at her position. If she couldn’t sit properly, she shouldn’t have worn such an absurd outfit. I wanted to reprimand her to adjust herself, but I decided to ignore it. She was not my responsibility.“I don’t know if you have noticed but we have been going round the same place for hours now. Can you look at the road and tell me where we are supposed to go?” I a

I was stuck on a roller coaster of emotions till sleep managed to steal me.But even the sleep didn’t give me the rest of mind I needed. I kept seeing horrible endings to our situation that soon turned into a nightmare. The worst of them was when I saw Liam kill Owen.

If I slacked now, her husband wouldn’t be the only bad news I would be giving her.I got out of the vehicle and this time Lucas stepped down with me. Together we went to her front door and just a few feet before we got to it, the door opened, and it wasn’t who I was expecting.“Where is Diane?” Sophie’s firm voice rang out around the area like she had a microphone buried in her throat.“Something came up and she… can I come in, there is a lot I have to explain to you,” I said. My voice was heavy with emotions, and I hoped she didn’t aggravate things.She studied me for a second before her sha

If things continued at this pace, we were going to lose.I tore through the bodies of soldiers and tried to make my way into the castle where I knew that Keith would be waiting. He had planned this very well; he knew that it was going to take a lot more to bring him down with the ninja wolves on his side, but I refused to give up.I tapped into my alpha abilities and skillfully cut through them, but they were like ants.

The signs had always been there from the very beginning, and I failed to recognize them or maybe I was just too blinded to see them.From the very first day I met him, I recognized the strange scent of him. When he gave me that cock and bull story about his pack, I knew there was something about it that didn’t entirely add up, but I chose to believe it.And then it didn’t stop there, when the council had arrested him suspecting him to be Patrick, I had the feeling that they were on to something. My council might have been cowards, but they were not entirely stupid. Something must have led them to Fred’s doorstep, and I had closed my eyes to that possibility.Fast forward to the day I went to tell him about his freedom, he had been on the phone speaking about something strange. Yet again, I let it slide. He even had the guts to call me and give me intel like he was

If he really thought that after everything, he did to me I would belittle myself to the point of sleeping with him then he must have truly lost his mind.He threw his head back and let out an irritating laughter before stopping to look deeply into my eyes. “Do not worry. We have all the time in the world. Lucius is Keith’s reward, while you are mine. No one is going to stop me,” he said and got on his feet.I felt the blood in my body scatter and my heart started beating at a dangerously fast pace, but I kept my cool. Owen was also staring with a glint of fear in his eyes, and I held him tight. I was ready to protect him with my entire life.“Louis please, take them inside. Let her freshen up,” he said to the traitor who had sold me out and then his evil eyes turned to me, “When I need her, I will call for her.
