KAII sighed as I walked around the palace. Although I had always been rude and mean to Jerome, he was not cruel to me when I arrived in his pack. In fact, he really treated me well.I had to give him points for that. I didn't think that I would have been able to do it. If a man who was in love with my mate arrived in my pack, trying to take her away with me, I would have lost my mind that was for sure. I'd make sure that he never came close to her even if that was the last thing I did.But he placed Elliot and I in a suite and he really treated us well. I was starting to see why Axl had picked him over me. No matter what, she was always his top priority.I wasn't stupid. I knew that if Jerome had his way, he would throw me in the sea and feed me to the sharks. But because Axl's brother was here, he was being polite to me. He considered Axl's feelings above everything else.I was really scared now. Would I be able to win her back at all?The more I thought about it, the more scared I
AXELLA"And how did you come to this conclusion that it was all a lie? One thing I can see is that your mate really loves you Axl. He took care of you and your kids all these years. He never let you suffer. Because he was guilty, he wanted to keep the truth away from you as much as possible. Are you really just going to throw all of these things away because of a simple mistake? I need you to think about this carefully if it is worth it!" Jenson said."You don't know anything. You are just a wolf. You have no idea how hurt I am!" I yelled at her."Of course, I am your wolf. But you seem to forget that I am a part of you Axl, I am not some separate person. I am you. I see what you see and I feel what you feel. You are just trying to run away because you are scared now. But if you really stop and look into yourself, you know that his love for you is simply not something that you can deny. You have every right to be mad that he kept it away from you for so long. But don't throw away all
Axl’s P.O.V“Are you sure everyone is still asleep?” I asked, my heart doing summersaults and backflips in my ribcage.Jenny snickered, tugged on my wrist, and pulled me along with her—I still lagged behind a bit though. “Anyone ever told you that you worry too much? Look around you Axl, it’s literally still dark.”I did as she asked and technically, she was right. It looked like it was still very early in the morning but… “Doesn’t your brother train in the private fields by the gate at dawn?”“Yeah and?” I could literally hear Jenny roll her eyes as we continued trudging through the bush path that led to her home.But I kept silent. Other than Future Alpha Kael ratting me out to my pack, there was something else I discovered a few weeks ago and it fucking scared me. The discovery flooded me with a mix of heady happiness, fear, and anxiety, and until I gathered the courage to talk to him about it, I was avoiding Kael at all costs. The man was incredibly intimidating.Suddenly, she sto
Axl’s P.O.VI was headed back to my pack but the path spread unseeingly before me, dark-edged, blurry, and hazy.I could feel the rain pelting against my skin, soaking through every piece of clothing on me. Thunder boomed and usually would have startled me but nothing could drown out the echoes of his rejection. Kael rejected me. Kael…he didn’t want me. He severed the mate bond, leaving only a gaping hole where the seed of our bond was trying to grow.It hurt, oh it hurts so much. Tears streamed down my face, icy tendrils that traced the burn scars etched on my soul. “Weak,” he said. “Wolfless and gutless mutt,” he spat. His words were like a knife, cutting and slashing into my very existence.Years of yearning, of loving my childhood crush from afar all dissolved into nothingness.And this was HER fault. She paired me with someone who had always despised my very existence. She made me into this….this!Turning my face at the rain-drenched sky, I screamed, raw and broken. “Give me a wo
Kael’s P.O.V“Who let a bruja into the Moon-Wolf Kingdom?” In my head, I sounded like a feral beast about to snap a human in half with my bare fucking hands, but in reality, my voice came out hoarse and weak as I slumped against the brick wall behind the pack house of my father’s prime minister to be.“I am sorry, Alpha Prince Kael. This….” My righthand man, Caspian started in an apologetic tone but I cut him off with a harsh wave of my hand.“Shut the hell up, pinche cabron.” I hissed, my breath seizing as another wave of lust and fucking arousal hit me square in the chest. “FUuuuuuck.” My cock swelled in my pants and my teeth almost broke in half from hard I gritted when my sensitive tip grazed the metal zipper.Through red-hazed vision and a canopy of hair falling over my brow, I glanced up at Caspian. He looked extremely uncomfortable and I wanted to punch him the teeth so he understood what uncomfortable really fucking meant.How this fucking happened, I had no idea. One moment,
Axl’s P.O.V“Why are you picking at your food, Axl?” Elder brother Elliot asked from across the dining table, startling me so hard I almost fell off my chair had Ellis not helped me sit firmly with a hand on my shoulder.“Easy, baby sis.” Ellis reached over and ruffled my hair. “You look a little too thin and pale. Is everything okay?”“yeah.” Eric butted in. he was sat next to me, the plate of chicken and rice in front of him almost cleared up. “ever since the coronation night when you’d just disappeared, you’ve been acting weird. Do we need to call the doctor?”“It’s nothing. Maybe just a stomach bug.” I forced my hand to lift my fork to my mouth, gagging at the scent of chicken that filled my nostrils. Oh no. I was going to throw up. Before I could make a spectacle of myself, I scraped my chair back and bolted away from the dining hall while ignoring the looks my brothers and father gave me. Even though the blood rushed to my head and the dining hall swam before my eyes, I rushed a
Axl's P.O.VWhy were they yelling at me? I wondered when suddenly their words broke into my confused state of mind.Pregnant?No…No, they were wrong… they had to be wrong. There was no way I would be pregnant.“It was just the stomach flu,” My eyes blurred with tears as I stared at the rage in my brother's eyes. “I can't be pregnant.”“Tell me–were you planning to keep this a secret from us forever?” Ellis demanded bitterly and the color drained from my face till I was even paler than the morning before. “Why would you hide something as huge as this from us?”“Little sister? Are you going to faint? Put your head between your knees.” Elliot cut in, his voice roughened with concern as he strode over to the bed and tangled his fingers in my dark hair. I felt like I couldn’t breathe and could sag against him as he held my head down so that the blood rushed back to my brain.“I’m all right,” I drew in a shuddering breath, conscious of the painful thud of my heart as it jerked erratically a
Axl’s P.O.VThe ache in my fingertips sharpened to a harsh throb that mimicked a persistent migraine. It forced me to drop the knitting needle with a clatter onto the mahogany table beside the waiting area couch. The sound echoed in the near-empty shop as I felt like I'd aged decades overnight."Ugh, twenty-two going on eighty," Rising from my seat, I stretched, groaning like a woman two times my age. A breath pushed to my lips and I winced at the pops in my spine. Twenty-two, with hands achy enough to belong to an octogenarian. At this age, I shouldn't feel like I was auditioning for the role of a hunchbacked crone in some forgotten play.Just as the thought of returning to the endless loop of knitting patterns and yarn balls threatened to overwhelm me, strong, warm arms enveloped me. My body tensed instinctively for a millisecond before the familiar scent of cedar and mountain air flooded my senses. Alpha pheromones wrapped me in a bubble, emitting a sense of safe-love-comfort. A so

AXL"After he kicked her out of the pack, my parents came back to their own pack. But this was just the begining of another set of troubles for them. My uncle who had been in the pack with my grandfather thought that he was the one who would become the King after my grandfather. He was already prepared for this. Of course, this was not going to happen as Mt father was the first son. As soon as he came back, my father took back the throne from him""My uncle did not want to accept this. He started a war to take the pack away from my father but he was defeated horribly. He never stood a chance against my father. Despite the fact that he was given a lot of chances to change, he refused to take any of them and he was constantly thinking about how he was going to take the throne for himself. My father had to banish him and his family. I guess, my uncle did not want to feel like he had lost. He wanted to think that he had won and so he became the leader of the rouges" Jerome explained to me
AXLI paced up and down in my bedroom. I was really worried about what was going on. We just dealt with one brother of his and now there was another sister.I wanted to know why Jerome did not tell me all of these things about him. I thought that I knew him well enough but it turned out that I didn't even know a single thing about him. He has really kept it away from me well.I was still pacing when my door was open and Jerome walked in.He had a tired look on his face and I immediately lost all of my will to question him. I didn't want to make things even harder on him."Jerome...." I called out.He sat on my bed and pulled me to sit down with him."I....what is going on? She's your sister? How come I didn't know about this?" I asked."I'm sorry I didn't tell you about her at first. It's just....I don't even have an excuse for keeping it away from you. I just didn't want you to know about the dark past of my family. I wanted to appear perfect in front of you. I didn't know it was all
AXL"What do you mean? Kai....he can't be here. That's just not possible!" I had already rejected him. I made it clear when I was leaving that I didn't want him following me. He had to be completely crazy to follow me here!Jerome looked at me. There was some questioning in his eyes and that made me feel bad all of a sudden. I didn't want him to think that I was going back to him or anything like that.I no longer loved him. I wanted to love Jerome and that was what I did. I chose the man who showed me more than enough kindness. I was going to stick with that."Well, he here's right now and we have no choice but to go see them!" Jerome said.I wanted to hold him back and ask why he was being like to but I thought to myself that he was probably going through a lot already and that I should not make it even more worse for him.I nodded my head and I went out with him.We arrived at the big hall where Kai and my brother were waiting for us.My eyes widened when I saw Elliot. I wanted to
KAI"You want to leave tommorow? I don't think that's such a good idea sir. You are not fully healed. You could get hurt on the Journey there..." The Doctor said.I turned to glare at him when he said this. I didn't think that he had the right to tell me what to do. I had already decided that I was going and nothing was going to stop me."It's fine, Master. Since he wants to leave, I am sure that he knows what he is doing and he knows his body best" Estrella was on my side once again.I looked at her suspiciously. It was already more than enough that she saved all of our lives but why was she going so far to help us?I didn't want to think too much into it but I didn't have a choice at all.I sighed. It was not as if I could say no to her help. I needed it more than anything else.I turned to Elliot. "So we are going to set out tommorow!"He nodded his head in agreement."You should come with me. I have some rooms prepared. It's not much but you can rest there till we need to leave to
KAIWas the moon goddess playing games with me now? How was this even possible? I was mated to Axl before but then I rejected her as my mate. She didn't reject me back so we still had the mate bond between each other.But then somehow she managed to get mated to someone else and then she came back six years later and broke he mate bond with me.Now, I was getting mated to someone else? I really could not understand what was going on. I desperately needed someone to explain to me."Are you listening to me?" She asked me.I looked up to see that she was looking at me with big blue eyes. I felt a big guilty for no reason at all. I also felt the mate bond between her once again. It was getting stronger and stronger. There had to be some mistake somewhere."Yes...." I said even though I knew that I was not listening to her."Good, because I was saying that you were really brave. My name is Estrella by the way. You had no idea how to swim and you could have died in that water. It's all part
"No. ..I am not getting up. I don't know what to do anymore. I am only doing this because it is my last resort. I really want you to know that I am sorry for all that I have done. I know that I was a real monster to your sister. I don't deserve her. Not after the way I treated her. But I love her. I hope you can see how much I love her. I don't care if I have to make up to her using the rest of my life. I am more than happy to do that. So please.... please just help me out here. Give me a chance will you?" I begged.I did not think I was above begging for any second. I wanted her back and I was more than willing to work for it."Your Highness please...""Kai. It's Kai. We are friends Elliot. We don't have to be so polite with each other. I don't want to lose your sister for good. And I don't want to lose you as my friend. I really don't know what I'd do if I didn't have both of you in my life. I am sure I am going to lose my mind if that happened. Please....please just listen to me an
KAI"No. I am begging you. She deserves to be happy. Please just let her be happy with Jerome"The words that Elliot said kept ringing over and over again in my head. What did he mean by that?! He really thought that I would not be able to make his sister happy?"What do you mean? I already apologized for the way I treated her. I knew that I was wrong. I am sorry. All that I want now is a chance to prove that I can really be good for her!" I argued. I really thought that I deserved a second chance at least. Everyone else go to have second chances. Why was that impossible for me?Elliot shook his head. "You still don't get it, Your Highness. Even now, all that you are thinking about is Yourself. You think that you are the only one who matters here. It doesn't matter if she's not in love with you. All that matters is that you're in love with her. Everyone else should suffer just so that you can be happy. That's what you think!" He said accusingly.I shook my head. I did not think that I
