Killian's POVI stood outside Kir's chambers, contemplating whether or not I should go in. Would he even be willing to help me after everything I'd put him through? I ensured he was treated less than a slave in the palace, simply because I was afraid and jealous of the kind of relationship he had with Lucille. At that time I had thought Lucille was cheating on me, though I never confronted her directly and took out all my anger on her brother.So there was a high chance he might turn me down. But then again, he was living in my kingdom, my palace, which meant he was merely another one of my servants. He had no mind of his own and he was expected to do everything say. I was his king. Even if he didn't wish to help me, I would force him into doing it. All I needed him to do was beg Lucille on my behalf, once she forgave me enough to listen to what I had to say, then I wouldn't have any use for Kir anymore. Perhaps I might even send him out of the palace.' You were worried that she was
Killian's POVElisa was beautiful, with her caramel skin tone, doe eyes, and pouty lips, she had a sort of innocence that made every man who looked upon her want to devote his life to protecting her. Even if her scent hadn't been so damn Irresistible, I would still find it hard to not be attracted to her. She was just my type of woman, kind, docile, and very caring. Unlike Lucille, she didn't prioritise material wealth over everything else. She wasn't with me because I was the Alpha king but simply because she was attracted to me as well. She was what I had dreamt about while I was younger, a mate who would put me first. It was no wonder Rapheal had bonded so well with her from the moment I saw her.However, I would have never thought that the woman who gave me sleeveless nights, the same I was willing to put my relationship with my mate on the line for, was none other than the brother-in-law I despised. I should have seen the similarities, how blind was I then?" Did you have fun lyi
Killian's POV" Killian please, let me explain "" It's quite ironic how reversed how cases are within just a few hours. Earlier I was the one begging you to listen to me, I kept apologising thinking I was a scumbag who had cheated on my mate. And all along you have been keeping such a secret from me "" You did cheat on me! You can't deny that. And I never meant to lie to you about Kira, I just didn't want to have her come to the palace and Steal you away from me"" How can she steal me away? We are mates Lucille, we were destined by the Moon Goddess, that sort of bond is not easily broken "" And yet you still fucked her!! The only time she appeared as a woman and you couldn't keep your dick in your pants!! I might have lied to you, but at least I never betrayed you. And why is Kira so damn important that you are concerned about her now? You've already fucked her, what else do you want?!"My gaze narrowed on her. For the first time since I met Lucille, I was seeing a dark side to he
Lucille's POV" Are you threatening me?" He had that look in his eyes that I had only seen directed at other people. Till this moment, I never thought that Killian would treat me like I was mere filthy beneath his feet. I was already regretting what I said, but I had no choice here, I had to do whatever it takes to keep him, even if it meant using uncanny methods." No, that's not what I mean, I was just saying that..."" If I go back to your sister, you will tell the whole kingdom about me cheating on you " Killian scowls, obviously he wasn't stupid to not get the implication of my words. " You know what Lucille? Do whatever the fuck you want. But be prepared to get the fuck out of my palace. And don't ever think of coming back "" You...really are breaking up with me? What about our bond? What about us being mates? You are suppose to love me and not Kira "" Perhaps we were never mates in the first place. Maybe this was all a big mistake. I might have chosen you by accident, it does
Asher's POV" It's my sister, I want her dead "" No "" What the hell do you mean no?"" I already told you the moment I agreed to help, you won't lay a finger on Kira "" Why do you even care what happens to her? It's not like she's your mate, she doesn't mean anything to you!! Unless..was the sex really that good that you would throw away your pride and dignity?!"This damn woman was testing my patience. Lucille Moonshine was an eyesore, from the moment I saw her I knew she was going to be trouble. She was a selfish and conceited peasant who had somehow found herself at the top of the food chain, there were so many ways she could have manipulated her position to aid her stay in the Kingdom. I felt more disappointed in the fact that she had failed to achieve such a small task, if she planned on deceiving Killian to believe she was his mate, why the hell would she bring his real mate along with her.It didn't make any sense. Did she think Killian was stupid or she really believed she
Kira's POVKillian doesn't let me go out, not since he found out that Elisa and I were the same person. I suspected that something like this would happen, which was why I was ready to carry that secret to my grave. I had been foolish enough to have sex with him despite knowing that the circumstances that would follow were grave. I was just hoping to get a taste of what it felt like to have someone care about me. But Killian hadn't been after me, he had been after my body and scent all this time. And with time he would eventually get over his lust, and I would be cast to the side.Worst-case scenario, he would send me back to my pack and my parents would end up killing me. I was sure Lucille must have told them about what happened already, I'm surprised my father hadn't come to the kingdom yet.I spent the better part of my day laying in bed, I didn't cry anymore, I'd shed too many tears. The only person I ever saw for the past three days was the maid who brought me food. She was kind
" My father returned, he brought with him a beautiful woman who he claimed was his mate. He announced this to the entire kingdom, and soon there were demands that my mother be stripped of her title of Luna because to them she wasn't the King's mate, the other woman was. Everything we do in this kingdom has to please the Moon Goddess. A king without a mate is believed to be unfavoured, and he would no doubt bring calamity to the rest of the Kingdom. Which was why I had almost lost my throne to Asher, because he had a mate and I didn't "I nodded at his words because honestly, I had nothing to say. Thankfully Killian wasn't expecting my sympathy, he continued with his story. " My mother was completely shattered. She tried begging my father to reconsider his decision to mate with the new woman. My father told her that he wouldn't take the title of Luna from her, however he needed to be with his mate. So he went on to marry this new woman, and Asher was born from the union. They never got
Killian's POVThe Priestess was a beautiful woman. Her long dark hair flowed behind her like a curtain, her skin was a beautiful sun-kissed caramel, and her eyes were the brightest green I had ever seen. She was dressed in loose white robes. I was told by my father to not let her youthful appearance deceive me, the priestess has been around since before my father was born, she was chosen by the moon goddess at the age of sixteen, she became priestess at age 19, and since then she hasn't aged.She was as respected ( if not more ) as I was in the kingdom. Her words were law, the only time she ever graced my palace was when she had a message for me. Usually, I would always look forward to her visit, anticipating what news she would have to share with the Goddess. However, as her green eyes focused on me, I only felt dread. It was just like the saying goes, ' there was no rest for the guilty '. To say that I was worried was an underestimation. The priestess being here would only mean that
