AXLI forced a smile on my face. Since he wanted to play the tyrant King, I was going to play along with him. It was not as if I could refuse him anyway. He was the King and I had to do what he wanted.I lead three of them to the front of my Nana's chambers. I turned to leave but he grabbed my hand just then.I turned to look at him with shock evident on my face. What was he doing right now? Did he mistake me for his girlfriend, perhaps?"Your Highness.... please let go of my hand," I said in a controlled voice. If I didn't my temper under check, I had no idea what I was going to do. Maybe I would have to leave immediately because I would be kicked out a second time.Kai just smirked at me. "I thought I told you to lead us to Nana's chambers?" He asked me.I nodded my head. "Yes. And I did just that. This is her chamber. You can go in now," I said, pointing at the door. I tried to remove my hand from his grip but he was still holding on to me tightly and refusing to let go."Where do
AXL's P.O.VStill, I couldn't help but need my father's affection.Like a starved little girl, I stared at him, hoping to get a reaction out of him. But he was already talking with someone else. It was as if he could not be bothered about my existence. I was probably a stain in his life that he badly wanted to get rid of at all costs.I looked over at Nana and there was a worried look in her eyes."Axl ....come over here," she called out to me. She reached out her hand and I could see the fear in her eyes. I think she was worried that I was going to leave.I smiled and tried to walk over to her and that was when I felt someone holding onto my hand. I frowned and tried to wrench my hand away but the grip was still holding on to me tightly. Without looking, I knew it was King KaelWhat did he want from me? Was he oblivious to the fact that everyone in the room might get the wrong idea if he kept this shameless behavior up? I wanted to wipe off the smirk on his face with a punch but the
KAII watched as Axl and her Nana left the room for the bathroom. The only thing that I could think about was how her hands felt on mine.It was as if I was in a trance, the only thing flashing in my head was the memories of that night I'd spent with that human woman. It felt like I had lost my mind but I could swear on my throne that Axl was strangely familiar to her. She gave me the same feeling that woman gave me that night. The tingling feeling in my fingertips that traveled down to my heart and then spread heat into my cock.But how could this be possible? They were not the same person....that was simply not possible. If Axl was the one I had spent that night with, I definitely would have known it.Besides, I hated her. If she had been with me that night, I wouldn't have been so receptive to her. I would have pushed her away no matter what. Axl of then disgusted me. Plain and simple. But that the fuck was this doubt.Gritting my teeth, I looked around for Stella and saw that she
KAI"What are you doing?" Stella asked me. She tried to hold my gaze but I did not bite the bait. I knew what she was trying to do."I just thought that I'd come show the guards some new moves..." I said."And you forgot about the fact that your girlfriend was in that room with you? You just left me amid those people....Do I not matter to you at all?" Stella asked me, eyes blazing with ill-concealed fury.From the way she held her shoulders stiffly, glaring at me, I could tell Stella would use anything I tried to say in my defense against me. Stella was pretty good at manipulation and turning on her waterworks as soon as the occasion called for it. I didn't want to encourage that so I tried not to say anything that would tick her off."I am sorry....you just seemed to be busy on your phone...." I trailed off when a nerve jumped in her jaw. Well, here it comes. I geared up for the next yells that would leave her."Because you were not paying attention to me!" She screamed, eyes startin
KAIThinking about Axl before now used to put me in a bad mood. But now whenever I thought about her, all I could see was her beautiful face overlapping with the memory of the woman I spent that night with."So..." He started."So...how are you and Jenny? I hope things are good between you both?" I immediately switched the topic, cutting him off. I didn't want him to know of the thoughts I had about his sister. I didn't want him to know that his sister stirred up a lot of strange feelings in me and that she was once my mate but I rejected her cruelly. He didn't need to know all of these things because it might end up costing me my friendship with him.His shoulders moved in a shrug. "Well, we are good." his reply was a bit low but I didn't think much of it. I knew that he adored my sister and that he was going to treat her well for the rest of her life."So, when are you finally going to make it official? When are you going to get married to her?" I asked him.Elliot had a worried loo
KAII felt something go off in my head when he told me this. So she was really engaged to someone else and she was going to get married.....how could this be?She had been so in love with me back then....she wanted me to accept her as my mate back then ...how could her feelings change in just a few years?!"She seems happy with him and I am happy for her. My sister has been through a very rough patch and she deserves to be happy. There's just a little part of me that's worried about her. She's going to become his Luna since he is the Alpha. I don't know if she can do it. Since they are going to get married, you know this isn't just about both of them. She's going to have to take on her duties as the Luna of the pack.....I don't know if my sister is cut out for that life." Elliot kept going on and on about he wasn't sure if his sister was going to make a great Luna but I was no longer listening. The only thing I was thinking about was that she was going to get mated to someone else. Ho
AXLI walked down the halls of the mansion aimlessly. I really had nowhere I was going in my mind. I just knew that I needed to clear my head.Nana, the King, my father, thinking about all of these people was making my head pound.Especially the King ...I had no idea what he was thinking. What was he trying to do? What was with the mixed signals he kept giving me all day?He had refused to let me go. And the look he had in his eyes when he saw the ring on my finger....it really scared me.It reminded me of the look that Jerome always had on his face whenever he was having a hard time controlling his wolf.However, how could this be possible? How could the King who rejected me cruelly remind me of the one person who has loved me unconditionally and proved to me that I will always be safe with him? What was going on?I was still thinking about this so I did not pay much attention to my surroundings. Just then, someone grabbed my hand from behind.I was shocked when I turned and saw that
AXL"Aww.... isn't that just thoughtful of him?" I asked. I was touched, but I wasn't surprised. My brother was just like that.He had once told me that if he found his mate, he was going to treat her like she deserved.That was why I had such high hopes for King Kael back then. I thought that since he was friends with my brother, he was going to be like him and appreciate his mate, but I was so wrong. I couldn't help a little twinge of envy. jenny was so lucky that her first mate hadn't treated her like the scum beneath his shoes and rejected her so harshly.I shook my head, not wanting to think about that person anymore. He was not worth it. This was about my best friend and my brother. Besides, I had someone who was in love with me, waiting for me back home.Jenny rubbed her palms together as she looked at me awkwardly."So tell me.... you're not mad that we are together right?" She asked me.I shook my head at once."Of course! What are you saying? Why would I be mad that you are
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
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
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
