AXEL

As I watched El's eyes light up with delight at the taste of the meat, I couldn't help but feel a sense of satisfaction. It was a small moment, but it was a crack in the armor of her defenses. She was starting to let me in, and I was determined to prove myself worthy of her trust.

I smiled to myself as I remembered her teasing words. "Just take the compliment and say 'thank you, Mister'". She had no idea how much I loved the way she spoke to me.

I knew I had to be extra caring and loving towards El, to counteract the doubts that Valkyrie's words had surely planted in her mind. I was certain that the Valkyrie had been talking about me, and I could only imagine the worst-case scenarios that El must be conjuring up.

As I looked at her, I could see the faintest glimmer of uncertainty in her eyes, and it killed me. I wanted to erase those doubts, to make her see that I was committed to her, no matter what. So I made a conscious effort to be more attentive, more affectionate, an

    ELIANA I walked over to my vanity, sinking onto the plush stool as conflicting thoughts swirled in my mind. My reflection stared back at me, a mixture of emotions playing across my face as I struggled to make sense of the turmoil brewing inside. "Who do you think the witch was referring to?" Alessia asked. I shook my head, still reeling from the warning. "I'm so confused. She told me to be really careful, but I was already on guard around my dad. I know the danger he poses, no matter how much I hate to admit it." Alessia's eyes narrowed. "I think Axel is part of the suspicious ones." I frowned, feeling a pang of defensiveness. "But he's been so sweet lately." Alessia's expression turned skeptical. "Exactly. Because he doesn't want you to suspect a thing.” Valkyrie's words echoed in my mind: "Your destiny is in your hands, Eliana. You must tread with caution and be very careful about who you call your own, or who you think is for you." Her warning resonated deeply, a remin

    ELIANA His rich, velvety baritone sent shivers down my spine as he whispered, "You look breathtaking, my lady" The warmth of his breath caressed my ear, sending a thrill through me. I felt my cheeks flush with pleasure as I gazed up at him, my eyes locking onto his. Those beautiful lips, which had spoken such sweet words, curved into a gentle smile, and I couldn't help but feel drawn to him. The way he looked at me, with such genuine admiration and appreciation, made me feel like I was the only person in the world. My cheeks grew hotter as I blushed at his words, feeling a flutter in my chest. The way Axel looked at me, with such intensity and sincerity, made me almost cancel all the suspicious I had of him. His gaze seemed to bore into my soul, seeing beyond the surface to the real me. I felt a jolt of electricity as he reached out, his fingers brushing against my cheek. It was a gentle, tender touch, but it sent sparks flying through my entire body. I couldn't help but lean i

    ELIANA "How dare she show her face with the Lycan King?" someone whispered. "So it's true, she's been fornicating with him," another voice chimed in. "She's so stupid to go for the Lycan King. He'll definitely dump her soon," a third person murmured. My expression was serene as if I hadn't heard the hurtful whispers. But inside, a fire burned, fueled by their cruel words. Axel's hand found mine, his fingers intertwining with my own, a silent show of support. The whispers and murmurs grew louder, a cacophony of judgment and speculation that seemed to surround me from all sides. I kept my expression neutral, pretending I couldn't hear the vicious gossip that was spreading like wildfire through the crowd. But it was hard to ignore the sting of their words, the way they seemed to delight in my supposed downfall. I felt a surge of anger and humiliation, but I bit it back, refusing to give them the satisfaction of seeing me react. Axel's hand tightened around mine, his eyes fla

    AXEL As I gazed at Eliana, I could see the pain etched on her face, her eyes clouded with a mixture of discomfort and distress. My instincts screamed at me to reach out, to ask her what was wrong, but I hesitated. I didn't want to draw attention to her suffering, especially not with Gabriel around. That man was a master of manipulation, always on the lookout for ways to exploit others for his gain. If he sensed that Eliana was vulnerable, he would pounce, using her weakness to further his agenda. I couldn't let that happen. So I kept silent, watching as Gabriel continued to drone on, oblivious to Eliana's distress. He was too caught up in his self-importance, too convinced of his superiority to notice the subtle cues that something was amiss. But I saw it, and my gut twisted with a growing sense of unease. As Eliana excused herself, her silky voice whispered in my ear, "I'll be back soon." But I didn't want her to leave. I could sense the danger lurking around us, and I knew t

    ELIANAI rose from my seat, politely excusing myself from the festivities, and made my way to the toilet. The pain was still present, a lingering ache, but it had subsided to a manageable level, no longer the searing sensation it had once been.I gritted my teeth, my face contorting in a mixture of discomfort and frustration, as I stepped into the toilet. The pain was still a nagging presence, threatening to break through my carefully constructed facade at any moment. I struggled to maintain my composure, but it was getting increasingly difficult.As I walked away, I could feel the weight of their gazes upon me, their whispers and snickers following close behind. Their cruel words cut deep, but one comment in particular made my blood boil: "She's so delusional to think the Lycan King likes her." The mocking tone and the laughter that followed made it clear that they believed I was nothing more than a foolish dreamer, chasing after something that was far beyond my reach.I strode purpo

    AXELI knew they must have attacked her. But who?Almost twenty minutes and she wasn't back.My mind was racing with the implications. I had overheard those men talking, and I knew they were working for her father. But what could they possibly want from her? And why would they resort to attacking her? I thought back to the conversation I had overheard, trying to remember any details that might give me a clue. Something about a secret, a hidden truth... I couldn't quite put my finger on it, but I knew I had to find out more. And I had to make sure she was safe. I scanned the room again, my eyes locking on the door. I had to get out of there, and I had to find her. Now.I tapped my foot impatiently, my eyes fixed on the watch as the seconds ticked by. 20 minutes was a long time, and I was starting to get worried.

    ELIANAI slowly opened my eyes, groggily taking in my surroundings. I was in a dark, confined space, with no sign of where I was or how I got there. My head was spinning, and my memories were hazy. I tried to remember what happened, but everything was a blur. I vaguely recalled being in the restroom, and then...nothing. Panic set in as I scrambled to sit up, but a sharp pain shot through my head, forcing me to lie back down. Where was I? And who had taken me?The air was thick with the acrid smell of stale smoke and something else, something sweet and chemical. It was overwhelming, making my head spin and my stomach churn. I could feel the weight of the smell bearing down on me, suffocating me. It was like the air itself was heavy, dense with the residue of countless cigarettes and something more sinister. I coughed, trying to clear my lungs, but the smell only seemed to seep deeper into my pores. Where was I? A bar? A club? A place where people came to escape, but ended up trapped in

It wasn't fair, but fate seemed determined to make me atone for his sins.The sounds were muffled and indistinct, but they sent a shiver down my spine. I strained my ears, trying to pinpoint their source, but they seemed to come from all around me, echoing off the walls.

The sound echoed through the stillness, making me jump slightly as I waited alone in the car. My eyes followed Tom as he walked away, his figure growing smaller and more distant with each passing moment. I was left alone with my thoughts, the only sound the quiet hum of the car's engine and the soft tick of the clock on the dashboard. The silence was oppressive, weighing heavily on me as I waited for Tom to return, wondering what he was doing and when he would come back.My patience was wearing thin, the minutes ticking by at a glacial pace as I sat alone in the car. I fidgeted restlessly, my eyes scanning the surrounding area for any sign of Tom's return. The silence was starting to get to me, and I could feel my anxiety spiking with each passing moment. I checked my watch for what felt like the hundredth time, the digits blurring together as I wondered

It took a lot to get me intoxicated , and yet...and yet I felt like I was going to pass out. That herbal drink must have been ridiculously strong, I thought, trying to remember what had happened. I recalled...and A drink that must have been laced with something powerful, because now I was paying the price. My head was pounding, my senses were dulled, and I felt like I was floating on a cloud. Not good. This was so not good.The thought sent a shiver down my spine. Was it for me to submit to him? The one who had always made my instincts go on high alert? I had always resisted his dominance, refused to back down. But now, in this state, I felt vulnerable, exposed. The drink seemed to be clouding my judgment, making me question my own strength. No, I told myself, trying to shake off the fogginess. I will not submit. I am a werewolf, a strong and p
