I shifted uncomfortably beside Tyron. I didn't expect Hannah to show up at all."What is she doing here?" Tyron snapped, straight to the point."She's unwell. After what happened, she's tried to take her life a couple of times and I was scared of what will happen if we leave her by herself" Felicia explained.I almost scoffed at the words coming from her mouth. "She wanted to apologize to you after what happened and we thought it'd be a good idea to bring her with us""I should have been informed first. I remember my words to you the last time. Hannah is banned from the castle. You know exactly what that means""Forgive us, my king. And please forgive Hannah too. Go ahead sweetheart" Damien urged and Hannah sashayed closer to us. She reached out to touch him but he snarled and she quickly jerked away from him."Forgive me for disobeying you and making you upset. I didn't mean to do it. I wish you can forgive me and we can go back to how we used to be""This isn't why I called you he
I didn't even know when the waterworks started. Tears streamed down my eyes like an unstoppable fountain. My cries mirrored, Felicia's own as she clung to me. Eventually, we pulled away and stared at each other. She sniffled and wiped her running nose. "Every year, I thought of you. No matter how much my brain wanted to forget, I couldn't. I had hoped that you were out there...somewhere and I would see you again. It seemed impossible and I almost thought that I would die without getting a chance to hold you in my arms again. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry for giving you away. I couldn't think of anything to do to save you or your sister and it seemed like the best solution" I couldn't find words, so I just nodded. "I only realized what a grave mistake I had made when I lost you. I never expected my cousin to run away. Forgive me" she broke down again. "That's okay. Stop crying" Damien pulled her into his arms again and I felt Tyron's warmth behind me. His arm came around my waist and I wa
The sun shone brightly in my face and I popped one eye open. It was already late in the morning. I could tell from the fact that the sun had come out. I must have overslept. I tried to roll over to the other side of the bed but I was surprised to feel a body. I opened my eyes fully and I saw Tyron, leaning on his elbow and looking down at me. "Good morning" I croaked and he kissed my forehead, goosebumps covering my skin. "Morning. You slept in""Yeah...you kept me up. How come you're still here? You're usually gone by this time""I wanted to wake up with you" It didn't seem like the only reason. I lifted myself, leaning on the headboard. "Alaric?" I questioned."He's with Juanita. He's going to be spending the day with Juanita and Colton""What? Why? What's happening""Nothing. You need to relax. I was thinking, after yesterday's events you could have some time to relax""I'm not staying in bed all day""I'm not talking about that. I was thinking we could go out to my cabin to rel
"What do you mean missing?" I questioned. How could he be missing? He was supposed to be with Juanita and Colton. With protection from Hermes and the rest of the guards. So what did he mean by missing?"We have to get back there to find out what the fuck they are talking about. Get dressed" I ran blindly back into the cabin, grabbing the first shirt I saw and quickly put it on. Tyron lifted me into his arms and ran. I've heard of the super speed of alpha kings and I used to doubt it, but I realized in this moment how true it was.In no fine, we were back at the castle and Tyron was bounding in with me. "Where the fuck are you" he growled and Cassius came out. "My lord""Where the fuck is Hermes. What happened?""They are out looking for the boy. The servant girl is here"Juanita. I slid down from Tyron's grip and went in the direction Cassius had pointed. Juanita was seated on a high stool, crying and shaking."What happened Juanita? Where is Alaric?""He was in the bedroom and I r
He opened the door to the bedroom and I just smiled and pulled him into a tighter embrace to put him at ease and encourage him. Tyron slid his tongue into my mouth and kissed me passionately. He laid me down on the couch, and took position over me, kneeling either side.He leaned forward, his hands above my shoulders, and he kissed me again. This was a different type of kiss, where the others had the feel of unbridled lust, this one was soft and tender. Our lips interlocked in a supple embrace, tongues massaging one another. He pulled away, playfully biting at my bottom lip causing me to breathe deeply. He began to gently nibble at my ear, as he shifted his weight, a little moan escaping me. I could feel his hard cock pressing against my belly as his hands squeezed my ass.He gasped as I slid my hands inside his boxers, first feeling his ass and then taking his hard cock in my hand. I started to slowly stroke it as we kissed. I then knelt in front of him and opened my mouth. He placed
I woke up, feeling different emotions all at once. The intensity of each of them is twice as normal. My connection with Tyron was now stronger than ever. Like a knot holding us together. I could feel it in my heart and in my head. It was like he was hovering around me in my subconscious. "How do you feel?" His voice broke me out of the deep thoughts in my head. "Good" my voice was croaky and my throat was itchy. A result of all the screaming I had done last night. All the times with Tyron were pleasure-filled but last night was out of the ordinary, all the feelings were intense. I've heard stories of being marked and the pleasure it could bring but none of them compared to what I had felt yesterday. Tyron brushed his knuckles over my cheekbone. "You don't regret it" There was doubt in his eyes as I looked at him. "No. I told you I wanted it. Why do you think I'll regret it" he forced a chuckle. "I don't know. I just...I wasn't a good mate to you in the beginning""We've already b
Alaric recovered after the first dose of Tyron's blood was given to him. We sat by his side as we waited for change and when his eyes opened...I was so happy that I shed a few litres of tears. He was so confused and shocked by all the sounds, staring up at me with wide eyes. When I picked him up, he started crying too. Tyron was the one who tried to calm us down. Tyron sent for Patrick as soon as he was awake and that's when the news was broken. "Something was wrong with his lungs. It was unusual for wolves to have this kind of issue but it happened. He would still be normal but it would limit him. Running far distances or partaking in tedious activities was now impossible. It will be difficult for Alaric when he is older because as a young wolf, he will need to train and be part of the hunt. Patrick was hoping that prolonged intake of our blood would help him recover, but he wasn't sure that his lungs would be back to normal. My hatred for Hannah intensified and I just wanted to pou
KING TYRON’s POVNevaeh's reaction to Kaden coming was pissing me off. Why was she so affected by the fact that he was coming? I thought it was something else. I hoped it was but the moment she mentioned his name, I knew what it was. Was she still in love with him? It could be. Maybe that's why she didn't want him to come because she would be conflicted after seeing him. My fists clenched tightly as I stormed away, trying to control my anger and not hit something or somebody. I had half a mind to cancel the ball and ask them not to come anymore but I couldn't. It was an annual gathering and her foster parents had questions to answer. I would just have to endure seeing him in the castle...and maybe around her. 'No' my wolf growled. 'He cannot be around her. She's ours' yes. But her feelings...I opened my office and slammed the door angrily. Why did she have to have a history with him? 'We'll kill him if he comes an inch close to our mate' my wolf growled and I agreed. It didn't matt
FIVE YEARS LATER Loud squeals reached my ear and I heard the sound of tiny feet running closer to my office. It was only a matter of time until they ran into my office. Jaden was the first to burst in through the door and Alaric followed a few minutes later, panting heavily. "I'm the first to get here. You have to do as I say" Jaden said with a wide smile, excited that he had won whatever bet they placed. Alaric was still struggling to catch his breath and I was worried. I moved towards them immediately, getting to my knees in front of him. "I...I'm okay" Alaric held his hand out for me. "I told you no running. It's bad for your health" I scolded softly. Alaric never completely healed and his lungs didn't get any better. Vigorous activities were too much for him to handle and even when I tried to be lenient and let him do whatever he wanted, we ended up regretting it. He wasn't cut out for some activities. "I'm really okay" "He's done" Jaden pulled at my arm. "You're alway
Two days later and I was lounging in bed with Tyron. He left his office to spend a few minutes away from all the work but it ended up turning into hours. His fingers played over my stomach and he lightly touched me. Since the news, I found him unconsciously touching my stomach always. His hand was always there. And if there was nothing to convince me, that was enough. He liked the idea of a child. And I knew I had nothing to fear, with him and his support, I'd be the best mother. He stiffened under me and I slowly got up from his chest. "Is something wrong?" I asked and he shook his head. "Patrick is here" I suddenly felt tense at the news. "H-hes here?" "Yes. Let's go" It was time to finally find out if I was indeed pregnant. "It's going to be good news" Tyron chipped my chin but I looked away. "What if it's not? You've been so excited by the possibility and then it turns out...""Shhhh" he placed a lone finger over my lips. "I hate that you worry about everything. Even the si
He set me down as we arrived in the room and he closed the door, pulling me by my hair to kiss me again but I stopped him. "Alaric...." "Hermes already has him now. Stop worrying" he kissed my cheeks. Finally feeling relaxed that Alaric was not alone. I stood on the tip of my toes and kissed him hard on the lips, darting my tongue deep into his mouth. A feeling of wanting that I've always felt with him spread through my body. As our kiss broke, I slid my head down and began pulling at the button on his pants, quickly releasing his stiffening cock. He groupâmes loudly, his cock pulsing in my grip and I fell to my knees. My desire to taste him was overwhelming so I put his cock in my mouth and sucked hard. As it grew, I took more into my mouth and was soon bobbing my head up and down, sucking his cock with all the lust I had. I was sucking and taking his cock deep into my throat until my nose was pressed against his abdomen. With a loud grunt, his fingers in my hair tightened and,
Life only got better from then on. After I spoke with Tyron about his attitude and I was able to convince him to stop feeling guilty. He stopped avoiding me completely. I saw him every moment. He dropped whatever he was doing to spend time with us. Alaric and myself. I was happy...free. I had no reason to fear or hide. All my tormentors were gone. Eunice and her family were kept in the dungeons of another pack. Our old pack was merged with a nearby park and the pack no longer existed in the books. I couldn't help but wonder how they felt about what happened. I wanted to feel bad for them because of the change they would have to endure but I couldn’t bring myself to. I didn’t feel sorry for them, not even in the slightest, and maybe that made me a terrible person but I didn’t care. All of them turned a blind eye to the torture I suffered in that pack. They tried to partake in any punishment I was forced to endure. They never felt sorry for me and I shouldn’t feel sorry for them eithe
KING TYRON's POVIt was late at night and I was still busy working. Kaden's pack needed a replacement but my options were limited. Another option I had was simply to merge the pack with another and be done with it. With the way it was going, the latter would be my final decision. I still had to sit with the advisors and debate on it though. I moved the stack of papers and faced another one when the door to my office suddenly opened. I looked up in surprise and saw Hermes.I wasn't expecting him to still be up since it was very late in the night. "Do you need something, Hermes?""I was wondering if you need any help with work. You've kept late nights for a few days and I'm wondering if the workload is so much""No. I can handle it. Go to bed" I said dismissing him. Instead of leaving like I wanted, Hermes came forward. I groaned in annoyance and leaned back on my chair."What do you really want Hermes?""I'm concerned about you. Everybody is. Is there something that is going on with
Her words rang in the large hall and everywhere went silent. I could feel all the eyes on me, judging...my airways close up and I struggled to breathe. I couldn't be here anymore. I stood up from my seat and rushed out of the hall. I ignored my name being called and ran faster, my heart beating as I tried to get away. Tears welled in my eyes, blurring my vision as I made an escape. Strong hands grabbed my upper arm and pulled me to a stop. From his scent, I knew it was Tyron. I tried to get out of his hold but he tightened his grip. "Look at me Nevaeh" he commanded but I couldn't. "Look at me Nevaeh...please" his voice was softer this time, pleading instead of commanding. I raised my head and met his eyes, tears still blurring my vision. "What did Eunice mean by what she said" My head dropped again. There was no emotion in his eyes. They were simply just blank and I had no idea what he was thinking. He wasn't supposed to find out at least. He wasn't supposed to find out at all. I w
I jumped out of bed immediately, confused. How was he gone? Who took him? I flicked the switch on the wall. There was no sign of him anywhere. I already started thinking the worst about what could have happened to my baby who was in bed with me. I opened the connecting door and came to a halt once I took in the sight at the center of Tyron's bedroom. He was seated in a rocking chair with Alaric in his arms. Relief flooded me but then I had questions. Why did he take him away from the bed? Did something happen while I was asleep? Why didn't anyone wake me up? I walked closer and Tyron's eyes flashed open. "Nevaeh?" He looked surprised to see me. "When did you wake up?" "A few minutes ago. I didn't see Alaric and I was frightened. What happened? Why did you take him out of the room?" "He was crying and I didn't want you to wake up so I brought him here""W-what..." I mumbled in shock. "He was crying?" If he was crying then..."He woke up?" I asked with teary eyes and Tyron nodded.
The rusty smell of the dungeon churned my stomach. The single guard at the entrance granted us entry after the other guards whispered something into his ear that I couldn't quite catch. "I'm looking for the newest prisoner," I said to him while trying so hard not to throw up. The stench from the dungeon was just too much. The guards exchanged looks at my request but nodded anyway. He led me further into the dungeon and the smell only got worse. We stopped at a locked door and the guard pulled it open. There was a little room between the door and the cells. Cautiously, I drew closer and took in the sight of a disheveled Colton. He had knives sticking into various parts of his body. There was a strong smell of blood and other fluids I was too disgusted to mention. His head lifted slowly and our eyes met. "W-what are you doing here?" He drawled in a disoriented voice. "I wanted to see you" I looked behind me and those guards were gone. "What for...to tell me how horrible I am?" He sc
I remained by Juanita's side, holding her hands. Another fit of cough started and more blood spilled from her mouth. I looked away, blinking the tears in my eyes. I couldn't look at her in this condition without feeling like my heart was going to tear into a million pieces. Knowing what the end of held made it even worse. "I-I'm fine. You don't need to cry for me" "I'm not crying" I sniffled. I wish there was something I could do so we didn't lose her like this. "Although it was for a short while...I'm happy to have known you" Her voice was weaker now, and she coughed loudly. "You're such a long person...that is what attracted me to you the first time. So different from Amaris...it made me wonder how you were friends""Save your energy," I said to her. I feared if she kept on talking, the cough would return. The force of it worsened each time and I feared it would soon be the last. "No. I don't have much time left""Stop saying that" I didn't want to be reminded. We shouldn't eve
