ARIAThe kiss deepened as he carried me and laid me down onto the grasses where he cupped my face and literally devoured my mouth like he has been deprived of contact for years.“You are back into my life and I could not thank the moon goddess for safely bringing you back into my life,” he said while caressing my face.His voice is cracked as if he is going to cry at any second. Pressing his forehead on mine, he sniffed my scent and aligned his breathing with mine.“I’m sorry for forgetting you, my love. I’m sorry for letting you alone all those years that I am not with you.”I immediately pushed him away the second he said that and sat up while fixing the strap of my dress.What the hell is he talking about? Although my heart and body are reacting positively to his touch, his words confused the hell out of me.What the fuck is he talking about? Is he talking about fated mates? But we are not like that. I already have a mate and it’s considered to be a jinx. And royal werewolves are k
WILLIAMI bowed before my parents when I arrived at the hall. “Father, mother, you are back.”My mother ran up to me, opening her arms towards me giving me a tight and big hug. “Oh, my son! What’s with the cold treatment my alpha prince?”She chuckled but I cannot return the enthusiastic treatment since the betrayal of what they did to me is still fresh in my mind.I don’t think I could ever forgive them for what they’d done to me and Alana.The alpha king grunted in his seat while staring at me.“I heard from Sophia that you brought home a woman.”I laughed bitterly and shook my head in annoyance. “And she did not fail to report that to you.”My father stood up, his brows furrowed because apparently, he wanted me to be the best husband there is for someone that he knew right from the very start that I despise because of what she did to Alana.That, to me, is one of the biggest betrayals he can do against me on top of manipulating me to forget Alana.“William, I already told you to be
ARIAI filled my lungs with the scent of the plants in the laboratory and smiled to myself.I’m feeling so at ease and comfortable in this place as if I belonged here.The medicine on the racks, the books about healing, and just the smell of the plants in this huge room are enough to put the biggest smile on my face.“Now, this is what we call heaven,” I muttered to myself while touching the equipment in the area.I don’t really know about the intention of the alpha prince to bring me here but I will never complain because I just love it here. It felt like I belonged here.“I think I have held this before,” I said while caressing a microscope. “And these books right here, I think I read them all before.”Closing my eyes, I walked slowly to the shelves of books touching every single one of them hoping that I would remember something.I do not believe the alpha prince when he insinuated that I am his mate but something right now has clicked in my head and I would just like to discover w
ARIALucas bowed before us, his eyes still fixated on our hands as he greeted the alpha prince.“Alpha prince, forgive me for saying this but you should not be out and parading Aria. The alpha king is wary about your sudden changes. You have a wife, alpha prince. It is not good to see you with the other woman.”But the alpha prince just opened his hand just to grip my hand tighter. “Lucas, since when did I take up any of your ill advices? I am the alpha prince. I know more than you do.”The beta stood straight and looked into the eyes of the alpha prince, a move that I reckoned is a direct challenge to the alpha prince.The atmosphere got intense and I found myself analyzing the situation. The alpha prince and the beta are known to be so close to each other so I do not know the reason why they are looking at each other like they’re about to transform and tear the other up.“Alpha prince, I was put up by the alpha king to monitor your actions because he found you to be incapable of mak
ARIAThe ride back to the palace is riddled with a good tension with the way the alpha prince is holding and caressing my hand tightly.I just knew with his sticky gaze that something will go down the drain today and it’s definitely our clothes peeling off from our body.“Take us to the cabin,” he commanded the driver who turned the car around.I still saw Lucas’ car stopped as we passed by it.When we reached the cabin, I did not think twice and pulled him to me and kissed him passionately.I do not know why I am doing this and if I am kissing him right but I still did it anyway.The alpha prince froze for a second when I caught him off guard but he took control of the pace right after.Setting me up on the table, he settled in between my legs and cupped my breasts inside my top unceremoniously.I let out a gasp inside his mouth and opened my lips bigger for him to give him more access.Like all the other things and places in the palace, his kisses are also familiar.I know I have ki
ARIAMy eyes widened in shock when I saw the ruthless alpha prince that is feared by everyone outside and inside the palace shed his tears right in front of me.“Alpha prince!” I exclaimed when I didn’t know what to do. “Alpha prince, what are you doing? I didn’t mean to say those words. I was not thinking. I am taking them all back.”How could I ever properly think of doing or saying something when he is slowly going into his knees while his tears keep pouring?“You are right. I lost her because of my cowardice,” he said in a shaking voice while staring at me. “I lost my woman because I was not decisive enough. I promised to protect her when I rescued her from that godforsaken place but her life did not get any better in my hands. She suffered while being with me. She suffered because of me because she will always choose to protect me over herself.”He gasped and reached for my feet to touch it gently.“I saw how hard she struggled so we could be together but it’s already too late.

ARIAI burst into laughter when he said that. That is actually the most absurd thing I have ever heard in my entire life and it’s the first time I heard about it.“Mates rejecting each other? Alpha prince, are you high on something? How can you be a mate to someone and reject her? You are just making me laugh with your useless lame jokes. Stop it. No one would believe you.”I turned my back ready to leave him in the cabin when he spoke again.“Alana, you and I are karmic mates because you are the granddaughter of the former alpha king that my father slayed.”I blinked and turned back around to see the guilt written all over his face.“What the hell are you talking about, alpha prince? What is this again? Why are you like this? Why are you inventing impossible things like that?”He remained in his place, his eyes fixed on mine as fear and determination crossed his eyes.“I regretted not telling you sooner because I am scared of the repercussions. I am afraid that the truth will take yo
Alana“Hey monster! Catch!”I opened my hand in an instinct to try to catch the mongrels and scraps of food thrown by Sophia from the hole in my prison in the basement. It was a half-bitten stale bread with molds all over it but instead of throwing it back away, my mouth began watering and I devoured the bread like a hungry beast that I am. It’s my first meal for the weak. They only gave me half a glass of water for the whole day and that was only yesterday. Now, I have nothing but a growling stomach and since this morning, I’ve been throwing up acid because I haven’t eaten for days. “Yuck! She really ate it!” Sophia laughed loud and invited her friends to take a peek at my sorry state below. Sophia is my step-sister, a daughter from the marriage my father had with a young single mother when my mother died after giving birth to me. “Didn’t she know it was my dog food? Hey Alana monster! You are just like a mutt! A mutt!”All of them laughed in chorus but I was too hungry to mind i

ARIAI know something was different when I woke up and found the alpha prince just staring softly at me from the other side of the bed.His eyes are only fixed on me with a certain glow on them as if he wants to tell me so many things but forced himself to shut his mouth up.I never saw him like this and it kind of warms my heart to see him looking at me this way even when it sounds so delusional and out-of-reality kind of thing.“W-What happened?” I asked while sitting up. “What are y-”My voice trailed off when I found myself in his arms being tightly hugged by the alpha prince in an instant. He pushed me back down to the bed and settled his nose in between my neck sniffing me in the process.I was caught off guard but I did not move and just let him embrace me in the gentlest way possible.“I miss you so much. I miss you so much,” he whispered in my ears while kissing my head.I pushed him back but it’s like moving a big boulder rock. “Alpha prince, what are you talking about?”I c
WILLIAMIt felt like someone had pushed me down a cliff and I fell to the abyss where I was greeted by a light that hugged me briefly.The memories flashed before me in a speed of light from the moment I found her in the dungeon where she was chained down and was in the most godforsaken state to when I brought her the first time to the palace and told her she was the one I have been waiting for my whole life. “Alana, you are my mate.”I panted for air as her hands tightened around my neck. But even if she stops, I will only offer my blood to her again and again.More memories came to me like when I chased after her back into her village, and when I learned about the truth of her identity and her strange behavior as a hybrid lycan and werewolf.We cannot be together according to the standards of our status and clans but no one can separate us.We were allergic to each other and with every second that we are together, it only gets more painful but that did not stop us from loving each
