Avery's pov

“Lucien” I said and the wolf looked at me. His blue ice was luminous, like electricity trapped in ice. His black fur was thick and wavy and he was large. He exuded an aura of authority, one that I had only sensed in my parents.

I subconsciously took a step back, I was wary of him and we weren't exactly on the best terms. Although I knew he was sorry and trying to amend our relationship, I didn't trust him yet.

Suddenly I heard a low growl, multiple growls and I looked around. That was when I noticed that we were both surrounded by a large amount of wolves. I was surprised and also a bit scared, after all, all of them were larger than Lucien.

They were at least five feet tall and six feet long. They were massive and they all had crimson-red eyes. Their aura was oppressive and it was certain that they were out to get us.

Lucien protectively moved to my front and I wanted to get behind him but then I remembered that I wasn't a weak girl anymore. I walked forward with a pierci

    Lucien's povI was surprised to see Avery here. I looked into her crimson-red eyes as she looked back at me, she seemed to be even more beautiful than the last time I saw her. This was bad, I never thought she would appear here, what had happened?A tether was supposed to be a link that gave you a reason to live and to survive. That will be converted into hidden potential that would in turn grant the wolf extra strength to overcome.The stronger the tether was the better the connection and the more extra strength you could receive. But I had heard of a tether appearing during one's awakening process.Thinking about it, this situation seems a bit familiar. Oh, that's right, a similar thing had happened with Avery's awakening also. I guess the link between us was that strong.I heard multiple low growls and I looked to see that we were surrounded by multiple wolves. They were all large and ferocious with red eyes and black fur. I knew immediately who they were, these were all the previo

    Lucien's POVI felt myself slowly awaken, it felt like my consciousness was slowly being inserted into my body. At first, I couldn't feel anything but soon, I felt my body become as heavy as lead.I couldn't breathe and I felt myself getting heavier. I was confused but I didn't panic, I waited calmly and then it happened. I remembered where I was and I moved.I swam upwards and in a few moments, my head rose above the thick black ink-like liquid. I gasped for air and I kept myself afloat for a while before I got out of the pit.I walked slowly, my gait was steady and unwavering and I felt like a true alpha now. I walked to the front of the altar and I stared at the statue of the moon goddess.I bowed and then I brought up my left hand. I used my right hand to cut with my index finger and I watched as my blood dripped into the bowl. After I was done, I looked around once more.I was different from all of these alpha's but that wasn't necessarily a bad thing. I had found my own path and

    Avery's povI woke up and stretched. I got up from bed and headed for the shower. As the cold water touched my skin, I couldn't help but recall past events. It had been almost two weeks since the night I had that dream.I had been in a forest surrounded by massive wolves and I had fought my way out. I received help from someone but just like my awakening, I couldn't seem to remember who the person was.I told my parents about it and they also didn't know what to do. They looked to be worried but I asked them not to, after all, I was perfectly fine.I walked out of the shower, dried myself and walked into my closet. I looked around for a while and then I settled on something simple. I took a pair of grey sweatpants and a black crop top and I paired it up with a pair of white sneakers.I packed my hair in a ponytail and I checked myself out in the mirror. I smiled and I walked out of the room. Every day, I stroll around the castle. I didn't know why I did it but it had become a habit no

    Lucien's povNote: words in italics signifies memory of the past.I had a smile on my face as I walked through the garden. I was strolling around the castle while simultaneously checking in on the progress of the pack.Ever since my awakening, things have been changing and I had to make sure that they were adapting enough. The training regime has been changed and I made Esme the second in command of the pack.The council has not been happy about all the changes I had made but I made sure to let them know that it was my pack and not theirs. I smiled a bit as I remembered the meeting I had with them a day after I awakened.I had been sitting in the garden, waiting for the council's summon and just as I expected, it came. The messenger had led me to the conference room and I followed them. They wore cloaks so I couldn't tell their gender just like how the members of the council also concealed their faces.I found it silly that you wouldn't want to show your face to the people you govern.

    Lucien's pov Note: words in italics signifies memory of the past.“Donovan.”My eyes narrowed and I glared at him. I had suspected that Donovan had some hidden schemes in place here at the pack and that was why I had acted the way I did.I wanted to pressure the council so that they could come under my control but it seemed like his schemes were even deeper than I thought. I had been looking for him all this while when he had been right under my nose.“Haha, well this is awkward. I hadn't expected myself to be revealed like this.” Donovan chuckled.I took a quick glance at the other members of the council and I noticed they were also shocked. How stupid were they that they didn't even know of their own identity?I kept my gaze on Donovan, I stood straight with the authority of an alpha bearing upon the surroundings. I don't want him to be able to easily influence the council and those present with his sly words. “Donovan, we finally meet again. Let me ask you, was my father really s

    Devon's pov It was almost two weeks already since the time Avery came here. I can still remember the look in her eyes when she saw the situation I was in. So much disappointment and disdain.But I was different now, I had begun training again and I had started getting things in my pack in order. I'll make sure to win her heart no matter what it takes.I have never loved anyone, probably because I thought everyone was just a snake waiting to backstab whoever was closest to them. I also thought we were all leeches just waiting to leech off someone in power but now I have become the leech.I don't know if it was because of her parent's influence or because of her personal strength, all I knew was that Avery was a powerful and dominating woman and I loved her for it.I sighed, I wanted to see her but I couldn't just walk up to her pack and say hi. I had to take things slowly. If only there was a way for me to visit her without seeming weird.I stood up from my bed and I put on a light ja

    Avery's povI sat in front of a mirror and I stared at my reflection. My long white hair was perfectly combed and it cascaded down my back like a waterfall, I sometimes found myself marvelling at how lustrous it was.I wore a long red gown and a pair of gold-coloured shoes. I wore a necklace, a bracelet and a ring all with the same design; a golden frame with pieces of rubies. It was a gift from my mother.I smiled as I touched the necklace, I looked beautiful. I used no makeup and the red of my dress and jewelry perfectly complimented my eyes. I had wanted to wear a black dress instead but my mother was firmly against it. She said it made me seem a bit malevolent and that will make it hard for me to find a mate.I was surprised at how she knew I was going to use this coronation ball as a means to find a mate. I looked away from the mirror towards the window and I sighed. I was especially restless tonight for some reason.I stood up and walked out of the room but I didn't head for the

    Lucien's POV I arrived at the ball at the normal time. The ball has started already but not so long ago that I was late. I wore a black suit and coat with as minimal jewellery as possible. I did not want to look gloomy but I looked best in all black and tonight, I wanted to look nothing but my best.I entered the ballroom with my aura reined in, a lot of people didn't even notice me as I walked in. I was here with Esme but she was nowhere to be found. Ever since she awakened, she had that habit of just vanishing and appearing exactly when she was needed.I had trained with her these past days to learn how to blend in because apparently, she wasn't vanishing. She was around, she was just almost unnoticeable.I looked around, the ballroom was nice and dope. It was in a massive hall and there was a massive chandelier at the centre. It looked to be made of diamonds, it was stunning. I looked from the musicians to the dressing of the guests, it seemed like Avery's father loved old school.

    Lucien's Pov Walking down the aisle was one thing I never imagined I would do. The thought of walking down a path lined with roses and a red carpet, and holding someone in my arms beside me that I promised to love and care for, seeming like a foreign concept. It felt weird to think that I had finally been humbled. And that I had finally been brought to my knees to consider love as anything more than erotic pleasure. It still felt strange to me that I had actually gotten here. To this point? And a part of me really felt proud.I never thought I would get here and I never thought I would actually get married… I had feared I would end up living and dying as hedonistic. But I guess miracles happen, and this just happened to be mine. I was happy even though I was a bit confused and tepid. I looked courageous and smug but I was still scared internally. I feared my old habits would come back to haunt me. And I worried I wouldn't be the best husband for Avery… She was a beautiful soul and ho

    Avery's PovTwo months later The crowd had gathered for the festivities and the courtyard was full of life. The entirety of Silverwood had been called for this occasion and everyone with ears had heeded the call. The streets were lined with people, stalls and activity. Musicians filled the streets with instruments and sounds. Some of the stalls filled with ale and the people were aloof and afloat. Food was bountiful. As steaks rolled over fires and men sold rottiserie chicken and smoked seasoned salmon over counters. The energy all around contagious. No single soul lost or sad or broken. Everyone, irrespective of class or status had come and were happy. All needs were met and all wants provided. It had been two months now and the town of Silverwood had gone from chaos and fighting to peace and tranquility. The people had reached a calm and began rebuilding. The torn ties, the distrust and the loss. The grieving families had been supported and helped to move on. Everyone was slowly an

    Luciens's PovI held her in my hands and I just couldn't contain the feeling. The rush of energy I felt inside and the lightness in my head. Her body was soft and her motion was gentle. I held her close and she sighed quietly; her soft moans driving me crazy as we held each other. I didn't know I could feel this way. And I didn't know I could feel so in love. The state I was in wasn't one of lust or to have her in bed. I held her in my arms now and the only thing I wanted was to have her there. The only thing I wanted was to hold her close and hold her forever…Avery was everything and Avery was beautiful. Her hands around me as she tried to sink into my skin. I could feel her getting closer and edging closer. I could feel her wanting to close the gap and want to be near me. I could feel her energy matched mine and that she wanted me as much as much as I wanted her. The sparks lighting up and almost written in the skies. I really didn't want to let go but I had to. I didn't really wan

    Avery's PovI woke up now in a gasp. My breathing heavy as I glanced in every direction frantically. I shot out of the chair or bed or whatever I was resting on and got up to my feet. I turned every which way, my eyes swinging from one side of the room to another. Then shooting up to the ceiling to see if what I had seen in my dream wasn't a dream. And if it had been real…It felt too real not to be and I deeply hoped it wasn't just hallucinations. As I looked up at the ceiling to find the carved statuettes but instead I saw a blank ceiling made of wood. I looked around for the white dress. With the veil and the mannequin? But I saw nothing. And now I quickly turned to look for Lucien. To see him maybe in the suit I had seen him in. To see his hair, and to see him smiling wide at me the way I had seen him. With the box in his hand. To hear his voice and hear him explain how he wanted to marry me. And how he had made plans for the wedding. And all he needed was a yes…But I turned arou

    Avery's PovI woke up confused and I didn't know where I was at first. I struggled to open my eyes and also to keep my vision steady. My eyes opening slowly like curtains and my body feeling weird between my legs. I felt a sharp pain in my hips and I could feel my thighs quake slightly. I looked down at myself to see that I was in robes?... I looked up and I didn't recognise where I was. The room in front of me is different from the one I remembered. The design different from the room I last saw myself in. The windows were wide and open, the curtains were drawn to the sides to let in light. And I found myself on a bigger bed. The sheets very soft and delicate in my hands as I rested on it with my palm, turning my head sideways trying to figure out where I was.“Rise and shine princess…” I suddenly heard a voice call. And I frowned and turned slowly. My head still hurting slightly and my legs strangely weak and tired. I managed to complete the turn and I was surprised to see Lucien stan

    Stella's PovIt just didn't feel right… and it just didn't make any sense. Yet it was all my reality… After all these years of hatred. To only come to realise I was hating my own blood?... That I was hating what I was supposed to love, and loving what I was supposed to hate?... The thought of being abused and used without even realising it made me shiver. I had been lied to so long and so well I couldn't even tell the difference. The lines between what was real and what was false blurring together into one vague absolute. I just couldn't believe the wool had been pulled over my eyes for so long. I had been blinded and led like a sheep and I thought I knew what I was doing? I thought I was right? I thought I was fighting for a good cause?... That my intentions were justified, and the allies were the enemies while the real enemies were actually the allies. I had gone against sensible reason and veered off wildly, and now it made me question my own self?... To believe that I was this

    Lucien's PovI pulled out as she convulsed and came all over everything. The sheets and her dress was soaking wet and her hands by her side with her mouth open in a gentle sigh. She had quickly reached climax in just a few strokes and I wondered if I was that good or she was just very invested in the moment? Or even worse, she was just faking it?... I climbed off and let her lie there. I buckled my belt back in place and released a sigh myself. The moment short but the feeling mutual. Avery was a beautiful being, and down there she was tight. I was surprised at how I flowed through in and out seamlessly. Each stroke leaving her moaning loudly and gasping in short bursts. Her body jerking at every motion, her fingers gripping my legs, trying to hold on, and trying not to pass out. Trying not to let the rush send her unconscious. Her moans soon turned into cries, her eyes wet as it was seemingly too much for her. I wanted to stop but each time she moaned I only went deeper. Her cries ac

    Avery's PovI was glad I had seen this coming. I was happy to have seen this beforehand and prevented it. As the guards came in now just at the exact moment. The guards came in now just at the exact time Lucien would have been deep inside me and too far gone to cover up and rationalise. I was happy I held myself accountable; and held myself accountable for both our reputations…As the two guards now stood at the door with several clothes in hand, all of them folded and all of them in the shape of dresses. With different colours and different designs. I stood there frowning in confusion as they stood with their hands out and their waist slightly bent in a saluted pose. Their chins raised and their heads high.“We have brought the clothes sire…” The leading guard called. “The one you asked for, for the benevolent lady of yours…”And the guards tone surprised me. His aggressive voice had gone down a baritone lower. And he now sounded more like a butler than a guard. And the way he talked

    Avery's PovI held his hand and he closed his eyes again. This time relaxing and not trying to pull away. He let my palm touch his and then closed his eyes. The exchange of energy making him ease into calm and his legs suddenly twitch. I saw his feet move slightly and then again. Before he opened his eyes and then let go. Immediately moving himself forward and getting out of bed, standing on his feet and turning around. “Being paralysed is a curse really…” he smiled, staring directly at me. His perfect teeth showing in full view. He looked suddenly refreshed and revitalised. The look on his face far from someone who was just sick.I smiled back at him not knowing what else to do. I watched him spin on his heels and click his feet in a hopscotch. He had suddenly lost his stern austerity and now was as giddy as a horse… “Are you okay Alpha?...” I asked now, frowning with my head down slightly. But he only turned towards me with his smile growing bigger. “Never been better, and thank
