It took time, patience and a lot of love, but I finally started to feel like my old self again. I was stunned that I had acted that way. I mean, I could remember it all, but it didn’t feel as though it was me doing it. It was as though something had taken over my body and mind.
It felt as though everything I did was part of a strange fog I had been living in. I told Kai and the doctor everything as soon as it felt as though the fog had lifted. For a while, they even thought that I might have been under some kind of spell, since nobody could really tell what Paul had done to me.
Kai enlisted the services of a witch, who thankfully confirmed that there was no spell and no potion involved. The doctor believed that it was some kind of baby blues. Just a far worse version than he had ever seen. He believed it was the trauma of what happened, which I never really processed, that finally caught up to me.

LacyIt was the strangest thing to think that there was something wrong with me that science couldn’t figure out. Mental illness wasn’t something you found in our world. Well, there were the feral rogues that were totally nuts. I wondered only for a moment if I was going feral and pushed the idea to the back of my mind.There were no records of a pack wolf ever going feral. History showed us that it only happened to rogues if they lived without other wolves for too long. Why then did I feel so incredibly overly protective of my children? I was sitting in the library staring out of the window when Kai’s mother walked in.“Kai told me I would find you here.” She smiled as I got up and greeted her. “He said that you’ve been very quiet since your return. Is everything all right?” She frowned as we sat down and an omega appeared. I ordered some tea, and sighed de

LacyIt took time, but slowly I started to regain my confidence and myself. I was less protective over our children, which was a huge relief, since I actually felt less protective. The world no longer scared me as much as it did before, and I could give my children the space they needed to grow.At the same time, I was learning so much about myself in the course that it was almost as though I was getting therapy instead of going to class. I slowly started to find my feet in the world again and worked through the trauma of what happened to me.I could drive again, although I still didn’t want to go anywhere alone. I could drive without shaking like a leaf. I never realized that what happened to me had affected me that badly. I suspected, but I never realized that so much emotional damage could have been done.I figured out after one of my classes that while I was in the situation, I didn’t feel the wounds because I was just trying to survive. I didn’t allow myself to feel at all, which

MaxFinding my mate couldn’t have come at a worse time! We were at war with the last of the dragons. My father had finally given me control of the pack after years of holding out on me, and I had one huge problem that required solving and fast.Our pack was holding the last dragon prisoner. My men found her hiding in a cave after the last battle and I hoped that we could get some information out of her before getting rid of the creature. I needed to make sure that the battle was over for good.I needed to know that I would be bringing my mate home to a place where she would be safe from the tyranny of dragons.Helena“Darling, as I was saying, this is Alpha Max. He took over from his father recently, and you might not have met him at the council meetings yet.” It all suddenly made sense when my mother explained. Max’s father was the oldest member of our alpha council.People often wondered why he was still there, but nobody dared ask. Handing over the title was up to each alpha, and i

NagaaraThanks to the dragon magic that flowed through my veins, I knew everything about my mother. Even what she wanted to call me and I claimed that name. I was unable to shift or use my magic thanks to the steel around my throat and wrists, but the magic still flowed freely through me.I knew all the spells my kind collected through the centuries. I just couldn’t physically do them. But then the beasts weren’t after the magic. They were after information and as long as they thought that I might have some, they would keep me alive.Max“She’s just a child!” I was shocked at the sight of the young girl on the other side of the one-way mirror. When I left my father in charge, I didn’t think he would have gone as far as he did. From the reports that were coming through, we had won. The dragons were gone after the last battle. It was over. All that remained was this one girl that glared at the mirror as though she knew I was watching her from the other side.“She might be just a child,

HelenaI was in the middle of a meeting when the thought hit me like a ton of bricks. There was absolutely no reason for me to wait until he came to me. I was a strong, independent alpha female. I had the right to visit his pack territory before making my decision about our bond. Hell, I could go to his place and reject him there!“Please call alpha Max and inform him I will be visiting tomorrow.” I instructed my beta, who looked both scared and excited. Of course, everyone was excited about their alpha finding a mate, but I did wonder if they weren’t more excited about the possibility of having a male alpha.Nobody knew what my decision about the pack was going to be yet. I hadn’t formally informed them, but I was sure that my mother probably told my father and that someone somewhere heard it and the rumour was already going through the pack like a wildfire.Nothing worked as fast as the werewolf grapevine, since nobody really had to physically tell anyone anything. It spread through

MaxIt was an impossible situation. I couldn’t let her live, but I also couldn’t bring myself to kill her. She really was the last of her kind and if and when she died, that would be it. There would be no more dragons in our world. It was the saddest moment of my life.To know that we had done that. My kind and my people and I had made sure that no dragon would ever fly again. No dragon with its magical powers would ever live to see another day. Yes, they came after us first, but we made sure that they would die with this young girl and never return.HelenaI didn’t feel like sleeping, so I went exploring. Max didn’t say that I had to stay in my room. He didn’t tell me that any part of the pack house was off limits. What struck me was the way his people looked at me as I made my way into their square and studied the surrounding buildings. Some of his people looked nervous while others looked a little agitated that I was there.“I thought you would be resting. I was busy taking care of

HelenaThe pain was far worse than I ever imagined it would be. It was no wonder so many wolves just accepted their mate bond and didn’t even think about rejecting their mate. Of course, I didn’t hear the end of it when I finally felt better.I was relieved to find out that Max had arranged for me to be brought home, but my mother was furious with me. All she could talk about each time she saw me in those first couple of days after I woke up was the fact that I was so ungrateful that the moon goddess would probably never give me another mate.My return also meant that my brother wasn’t going to take over as the new pack alpha. My decision therefore put our pack in a bit of danger. If I didn’t find a mate and I didn’t produce an heir, we would be seen as weak. There was just so damn much to think about that I felt a little overwhelmed and, in a fit of fury thanks to my mother’s constant nagging, gave my brother my title and stormed out of the house.When I refused to take back my title

HelenaI wasn’t looking forward to the visit. I didn’t think I would be of any help, but the council insisted that I go along as I was apparently the only person, besides my servants, who visited the pack territory the same time the war ended.The council was convinced I could clear up a few things that they apparently didn’t understand. Since we were no longer bound by a mate bond, they believed I would tell them everything they wanted to know about Max and his pack.It felt strange to see him again and not feel our bond pulling. Time had clearly not been kind to him. Although he was still very handsome, I could see that whatever had gone on over the past couple of years made him look a little older than he was.After the formal greetings were over, we were shown to the boardroom and I realized I never really saw much of his pack house when I was there. In fact, I had only been there for a couple of hours when I rejected him and I can’t remember much after the rejection.We all sat d

HelenaAt first, I thought they were all insane. I couldn’t possibly be who they said. Yeah, okay, fine, so males listened when I spoke, but to call me the alpha of alphas was just weird. In time, however, it slowly started to show. I started to figure out how to use my power without harming anyone.The last thing I wanted to do was upset any of the males. I didn’t want to be the one ruling everyone. I just wanted to keep my promise to Nagaara. I wanted to make sure our people didn’t break my promise. I wanted to make sure everyone lived in peace.“You know, I think you might just be the reincarnation of your ancestor.” Max looked amused.“Not that again.” I frowned, but amusement was playing around in my eyes. We had discussed it a lot over the years. Even our children believed I was the reincarnation of Luna Ava. It could very well be possible, but I just couldn’t completely wrap my mind around it.The werewolves lived in peace with the dragons from the day I made the promise. Nagaa

HelenaWithin the first couple of days, the guests started to arrive. My family showed up within the first twenty-four hours and each time I had to explain what the promise I made meant. It was the general consensus. It seemed that I shouldn’t have done it. That I couldn’t speak for all the packs. They felt, they being the alpha males, that I didn’t have the right to make a promise on their behalf.“That is what none of you seem to understand!” After being spoken to as though I was a second-rate citizen for more than a week, I finally lost my patience. Max had been doing his best to defend me, but the hits just kept coming, and my sudden growl silenced every alpha in the room.“I didn’t make the promise on your behalf. I made it to save our pack. Where do you think she would have gone once she was done with us? You can’t tell me that all of you think she would have stopped with our pack! I believe she was on her way to doing exactly what she promised me she would do if we attacked aga

HelenaThe fact that there was the very real possibility that Nagaara could have killed me didn’t hit me until it was all over. While I was talking to her, I felt safe. It was only when I saw how worried Max was that I realized it. Nagaara just had to breathe too hard, and she would have melted my skin clear off.Tears started to run as Max took me into our home. Huge sobs ripped through my entire body as he clung to me, whispering sweet words to try and calm my racing heart. I had no idea how long I had been crying but my tears finally stopped.We got cleaned up and when we walked out, most of the damage had been cleaned up. It would take some time to rebuild the homes that were destroyed, but as long as we had peace, we could all live with what had happened. I could see relief and gratitude on all the faces.“You reminded me of something I heard about your family. It was a story my mother told me when I was a very young pup.” Max smiled as we found a seat and two omegas brought us s
The Alpha and the Ice Princess Chapter 117 - True lasting peace.
NagaaraI wasn’t entirely sure why I was sitting in the dirt listening to a wolf, but Helena had been kind to me when we met. I also read about what her pack went through so many years ago. How they were also persecuted by the other wolves because they were different and how they found a way to peace thanks to one wolf called Ava.I knew that Helena was a direct descendant of Ava’s. That’s probably why I was willing to sit there in the middle of the open square in the dirt. I was curious as to why someone with her lineage would bind herself to the people who nearly wiped out my kind.I knew she would try to convince me not to attack, but I still wanted to hear her out.MaxI was going out of my mind as I paced back and forth just beyond the edge of the forest. I could see Helena and Nagaara in the square. Both were seated, and I could tell that they were talking, but we were too far off to hear what was being said.I was so scared! Why did Helena do that? Why the hell did I leave her
The Alpha and the Ice Princess Chapter 116 - Facing the past.
NagaaraI felt pride as I watched my babies take their first flight, and then anxiety set in, and I instantly called them back. They needed to learn how to fly and how to defend themselves, but they also needed to learn where it was safe. They might be fully grown and might have some of the knowledge of our ancestors, but they were still only babies.It was my duty as their mother to protect them. The same way that my mother tried to protect me. My babies had to learn a lot before we would be able to take on the beasts. I sighed as they gathered around me and I showed them where they could fly and where not.They learned quickly and within a day, I could tell that they were ready. It was shocking, since I thought we would need months, but my babies were breathing fire and the quicker we got rid of the threat, the sooner they could take to the skies at will.MaxI never knew I could feel the kind of happiness I felt whenever Helena walked into a room. Sadly, our happiness was still ove

NagaaraFor months, I waited patiently and tended to my eggs and on one clear and beautiful night with the moon shining bigger and brighter than I had ever seen it, I heard the first crack of a shell. Moments later, I was helping my firstborn out of his egg. He was so beautiful that I almost forgot about the others who promptly started to hatch.It was the most beautiful moment of my young life. They were all instantly hungry, of course, but I didn’t mind. I gave them the love I was never able to get from my mother and by morning they were grown. Thanks to a very ancient spell and to protect our kind, we grew to adulthood within hours after being born.I promised myself as I watched them during the night that I would make sure they never had to experience the loss that I had. I promised myself I would guide them and teach them in a way I never got to have. I promised myself again that I would get my revenge on the beasts so that my children could live in peace.HelenaMax and I agreed
The Alpha and the Ice Princess Chapter 114 - Surprised?
MaxShe said yes! Okay fine, so she didn’t actually say yes, but she might as well have! My heart soared on the drive home. I had never felt like that. I felt like a young pup in love and it was simply wonderful. Ridiculous that a man at my age was acting like a young pup, but still. It was probably one of the best days of my life.The second we arrived home, I started to plan. She said that she didn’t think it would be a surprise, but I fully intended on surprising her. Whatever I did on the day we accepted each other had to be spectacular. I thought about the young dragon girl only for a moment before pushing all thoughts of her to the back of my mind.There had been no reports or sightings. We even went as far as checking their old home, and she hadn’t gone there. At least, I was told by my warriors they had been there, but I trusted them. They wouldn’t lie to me knowing how dangerous she was.I actually felt as though life could finally begin. We weren’t in the middle of a war, an
The Alpha and the Ice Princess Chapter 113 - Things surely have changed.
HelenaI had given Max a lot to think about. Hell, I had a lot to think about. So, it wasn’t a huge surprise when I didn’t hear from Max for a couple of days. I couldn’t help but giggle whenever I thought about him, and it was honestly becoming a royal pain.So, by the time my brother showed up at my doorstep to inform me that Max had requested another visit, I was ready to burst out of my skin with excitement. It was not how a woman of my age should act. I couldn’t damn well help myself.My second visit with Max went better than the first and I found myself actually laughing at his odd joke. Things unfortunately turned serious right before our time was up when Max asked if I could see myself sharing a future with him.“I could. I wouldn’t lie about that, but your future …” I thought about it as a frown formed on my face. “As a matter of fact, all of our futures still hang in the balance. We don’t know where the young dragon went or what her plans are. I couldn’t possibly have childre
The Alpha and the Ice Princess Chapter 112 - Freedom of choice versus destiny?
HelenaI had been going back and forth about why I should reject Max for the second time and my mother was telling me why I shouldn’t. She had one point that I couldn’t deny. I didn’t really know him all that well. I had judged him in a very difficult time when he was probably not himself. I shook my head and frowned.“NO! I can’t be with that man! He is infuriating.” I pouted and crossed my arms over my chest like a young child who didn’t want to do something.“Well, I’m afraid you will have no other choice. He has requested an official meeting with you through your brother. You know the law. You have to give him a chance.” My mother huffed before storming out and I sighed deeply. I should have known that Max would do his research about that! That was if he didn’t already know the laws about mates.An hour later, my brother showed up at my front door and right behind him Max was grinning at me. I didn’t even greet him, as my brother explained the rules to the both of us. Max wasn’t a
