“I was disappointed to see you flirt so shamelessly with my mate,” I said to her but more so I was disappointed in Cyrus for giving into such a flimsy temptation. If he had called her bluff she would not have had the guts to seduce him.

“I have nothing to say to that. You were dead and I did not think you would ever be reincarnated. Reincarnation has only happened once and that was many years back,” came her response.

“Perhaps you are right but I find that I cannot put it behind me,” I said.

“You can do as you wish,” she said.

“And there is your…”

“Why exactly did you call me here? Give me ten reasons you hate me now?” she retorted.

I did not remark on her rudeness. It could be that she still viewed me as a slave.

“Given your situation, I want to extend an olive branch to you,” I said.

I had no intention of continuing our friendship this time but I still cared about her. I could also imagine that given her sister's betrayal, she must be going through a lot.

    Altid's POV “Your Majesty, to answer your question. I believe the two are not connected. The fact that it happened on the same night does not mean the both are related cases,” I said. As I had arrived at the council with Lord Robert's body, I had been informed that Lord Harold's home had been robbed and the man and his wife had been severely injured. “If the cases are not interrelated, then you believe this is a coincidence?” asked Cyrus. He looked convinced that the two cases were linked but I did not believe that was the case. “Lord Robert was murdered in his home as a result of the audit; I want to assume that is the case. Someone did not want him talking and so he was killed but Lord Harold was robbed and injured. There were valuables in Lord Robert's home but nothing is missing except his life. Whereas, Lord Harold's life was spared but he was stolen from. There are different motives to both crimes.” “And one person cannot have both motives?” “The timing will be inconvenie

    Altid's POVThe case was baffling indeed. Except for the discrepancies in the testimonies of the suspects and the fact that beyond doubt Lord Robert had been murdered and his death staged as a suicide, there was no concrete evidence to nail any suspect. “I have released them, your Majesty but they are not to leave the capital until the murder case has been resolved,” I said to the Alpha. “You need more time to investigate?” he quipped. “Yes, your Majesty. I believe I shall find out more in due time but I want to request that you grant me permission to keep Lord Robert's estate under lock until the investigations are complete,” I told him. “You have my permission. As a matter of fact, the title and estate has not been given to Jonathan; I believe he will be here soon to… speak of the devil,” the Alpha said and true enough Lord Robert's son walked in, his face purple with anger. “Your Majesty,” he bowed to the Alpha. “Jonathan, you have my condolences,” said the Alpha although the

    Agnes’s POVAnother full moon festival had come around. It was not the first since I had come to Ghysem but it was the first since I had recovered my memories. During the last full moon, I had transformed into a wolf but I had no idea then what was going on. Today was different.At the peak of the full moon, my wolf came out and joined the many others to howl a beautiful tone in the dewy night. Achilia’s POVI could hear the howls of envy at my emergence. The vast majority of the wolves in Ghysem had always envied me. I stood proud and taller than most of them. My fur was a deep shining brown with flecks of royal purple. I have been told many times that I had the most graceful form. But I was seething in anger as I stared at the multitude of werewolves that had doubted my existence. I disagreed with Agnes, I had nothing to prove. If they were werewolves indeed should they not have sensed my wolf? Adrianna’s POVI had spent the full moon festival with my parents. Partly because I

    Jonathan was really getting on my nerves. He had refused to answer my question even though I had asked him several times now. Instead of responding to me, he itched his hair vigorously. “Your silence will be taken as an admission of guilt,” I told him but he remained quiet still.“Very well then,” I said and made to stand up to leave. But just as I stood up, he grabbed the edge of my clothes.“You must listen to me, the black veil is coming to get me too,” he cried out. If he was acting then he was really good at it, if not his terror looked real. I shook his hands off my clothes and walked out.I was not certain if I could trust his words but if something did happen to him while in my custody, I would not be able to live with myself. So I told Timothy to double the security around his cell. I reviewed the evidence that had been gathered so far and there was nothing about a black veil. What the hell was he talking about?

    I agreed with Lord Drusus. Since the days of my father, the South pack had been a nuisance. It was something we had tolerated for years but I now had no wish to continue doing so. “We have no measures to protect ourselves as of now,” cried one of the Lords. “You insult the Alpha then and the military force behind him,” came Lord Drusus’ angered response.“I am surprised at the discussion we are having. I had not thought that we had any option besides going to war. We were stolen from and we are going out to plunder.”Audrey’s POV“It is quite remarkable that you thought to do that,” cried Larog with a wide smile as he eyed our new stolen treasure. “Not so remarkable really, It only makes sense that we divert Cyrus’ attention to King Ares. After all, the plan was to use the South pack to acquire Ghysem but I know Ares well, he is a coward who is scared of a confrontation with Cyrus,” I said before sipping my wine. “You are right of course.

    Adrianna's POV I was yet to decide if I liked Moana or not. She seemed pleasant but I knew there was something more to her calm exterior. Sure enough, she was head over heels for her husband even though she tried not to show it and I could tell that she was insecure in some way about me. Unfortunately, I had no intention of putting her out of her fears. I was loyal to my king but that said nothing about my morals. If I had my way with Theophilus, I would take it. It was no fault of mine really but some people were too handsome to be owned forever by one person; it was simply not fair. We had been in the mainland for about a week now and I had worked closely with Theophilus all this time. I had not made any effort to seduce Theophilus but whenever Moana was present with us I did not fail to see her watching me rather too closely. She could watch me all she wanted but when I was ready to have Theophilus, I would make him beg for me. At the moment I was taking my work here rather

    Moana's POV I did not like Adrianna. I had never liked her. I had always thought she was a snob and I was right. However she was more than that; she wanted Theophilus, and she had made that very clear to me earlier. “You are more beautiful than the moon, do you know?” Theophilus said as he swooped down to kiss him but I turned my face away and he did not hide that I had hurt his feelings. “What is the matter?” he asked, perplexed. “You do not know? Or do you pretend not to know?” I asked, my voice betraying that I was angry at him. “My love if you do not tell me how shall I know? I can do many things but I cannot read minds,” he said to me. “You think I am stupid,” I accused him. I had not missed the look the two had exchanged earlier when I suggested that I should have the local women around for tea. “That is nonsense. I do not think you are stupid,” he said. “What did you mean then by, _Love, the local women have to take care of their family all day. They do not have time

    “How did you know that? Was your spirit watching me this whole time?” he quizzed. “I told you that I would always be with you, did I not?” I asked him. “Well, my lady, I am not a perfect man and I am deeply sorry for all my faults,” he said with a deep bow which melted away my anger. The next day I went to see a dear friend of mine. “Your Highness!” Eunice could not contain her shock as she saw me sitting in her room. “I have missed you very much Eunice, how have you been these days?” I asked her with a smile. “Okay? but I am still reeling from the shock, ooh, I do not know if it is right for you to sit in my lowly room. I shall come to you if you need me, your Highness,” she said and my smile deepened. “You forget that we once shared this room and you can call me Agnes when we are alone. After all, we are friends,” I said. “Friends? Not so, your Highness. I cannot conceive the idea of being friends with your royal self,” she said. “Dearest Eunice, you say the funniest things

    Theophilus stood at the edge of the clearing, observing the scene before him. The war had left this part of the kingdom in shambles, but now, with peace restored, the arduous process of rebuilding had begun. The air was thick with the scent of earth and freshly turned soil as workers unearthed the entrances to the underground shelters where the people had sought refuge during the conflict.He walked through the village, greeting the townsfolk who were emerging from their subterranean hideouts. The once desolate and war-torn area was now a hive of activity. Men and women toiled side by side, lifting beams, hammering nails, and repairing the damage. Children, their faces smeared with dirt, played amidst the construction, their laughter a hopeful sign of better days to come.Theophilus paused at the entrance of one of the larger shelters, admiring the ingenuity and resilience of his people.

    Lady Asher's screams echoed through the dimly lit chambers of the southern palace, the sound waves reverberating off the stone walls. Sweat drenched her body, soaking through the linen sheets as she clung to the bedposts, her strength waning with each contraction. The midwives hovered around her, whispering words of encouragement, their hands steady and practiced as they guided her through the agony.The air was thick with the scent of herbs—rosemary and lavender—mingling with the coppery tang of blood, a primal smell that signaled new life. King Ares paced outside the room, his heart pounding with a mixture of fear and anticipation. His footsteps echoed down the corridor as he awaited the arrival of his heir. The southern palace was bathed in moonlight, casting an ethereal glow over the proceedings.The night air vibrated with tension as the kingdom held its breath, awaiting the cry of the newborn prince.

Her heart ached with the weight of her secret, the burden of hiding her true feelings from the world.But on a day before she was to return to Ghysem, she realized something was amiss. Her monthly blood flow had not come, and a subtle queasiness had taken up residence in her stomach. Her heart pounded as she sought out Ares, her feet carrying her to his chambers with a sense of urgency.She found him poring over maps and documents, his brow furrowed in concentration. The scent of parchment and ink filled the air, transporting her to a world of ancient tales and forgotten lore. He looked up as she entered, a smile lighting up his face, illuminating the room."Ashlynn," he said, standing and crossing the room to embrace her. His arms wrapped around her, warm and reassuring, holding her close as if he'd never let her go."What brings yo

    Lad—Ashlynn,” she said in a shaky voice, her words little more than a breath. She originally had meant to say her title, Lady Asher, but there was something about the warmth Ares was giving her that made her change her mind.Ares' eyes were shown in delight. "A beautiful name for a beautiful young lady!" he exclaimed, awed by her queenly form. Her midnight locks flowed down her back like liquid ebony, highlights of chestnut shimmering in the light. Her emerald eyes were so deep, it felt as though they could look into his very spirit.Their talk had flowed along easily, as water flows along a gently inclined plain. They had said nothing for hours.Not only did Ashlynn possess ravishing beauty, but her intellect, her passion for art, and the gentle strength she exuded intrigued Ares. Her laughter was music to his ears.Ashlynn was intrigued by the layers of Ares’ personality- his intelligence, his underlying kindness beneath his mantel of dominance, and the faint glimmer of vulnerabilit

    A sad smile graced Lady Asher's face. She took in a deep breath and then wiped a nonexistent tear as her mind floated back to her younger days.The tension of the war that had separated the North from the South had eased up a bit. It was not forbidden for citizens of Ghysem to venture into the South or vice versa. It was during the winter, and Lady Asher Ashlynn's husband had been sent on an errand by the king.Life was beginning to bore her, and she did not want to feel like a burden to her friend, who was queen. Usually, she would spend her whole day with her best friend, but her friend had duties to attend to, and she often felt like she was in the way.Ashlynn had seen the whole of the North, and her curiosity often made her wonder about the depths of the South.

    Soldiers had been dispersed all over Ghysem and the south which has now become a part of Ghysem. They had sent word to other neighboring packs in the West and East so there was no place for Lady Asher to hide. Each day was spent in anguish and constant nightmares for Cyrus. He kept seeing himself hanging from the ceiling with a black veil on his wrist. Other times, he would see Agnes; her face contorted in pain as she swung from the ceiling, a black veil tied around her wrist and anytime he cut the rope, trying to save her it would be too late.He would end up bringing down a lifeless body.Then he would wake up, covered in sweat and panting heavily like he was fighting a physical war. Tonight was one of those nights Cyrus was drenched in his sweat. His breathing was ragged and then his hands shaky with fear. He felt around the bedside table for a lantern and a match, then struck it to flame the lantern. He sat up properly this time and looked towards where Agnes lay, to be sure she
