Ryan's Pov: Walking inside the woods, a pleasant smell hits my nose. It was the moisture of a deep ocean and the earthly sands, just like how I love it. I growled in satisfaction flaring up my nose to perceive more. I can't seem to get enough, I felt like drowning in it. The smell has my head spinning around in a flash, Ethan was flipping his tail in excitement."Mate! Mate!" He kept screaming."I think as much," I mumbled with a lingering smile, who knows if I will find my mate here? The very person that I have ever wished to have in my life and she appeared at the right time, my mother will be very happy if I break the news to her."It seems like she is in danger," Ethan's sudden words shocked me. What does he mean by danger? My mate!"Go fast, I will direct you to where she is," I sped fast, I could feel a force pushing me towards a direction if I am certain that she will be there. Halting in my track I watched as a wolf tried attacking a tiny feminine figure on the floor, the wol
Juliana's pov:The guy in front of me was surely the true definition of a Greek god. I have always said that Lucien is handsome but oh! My goodness this one standing in front of me is a goddamn snack, his jet-black hair flowed down to his shoulder. His hair looks so soft and silk that I want to run my hands on them.I gawk at him unknowingly, he has a smooth spade-shaped beard. He has a manly gritted stubble, I smiled inwardly. I have always had a thing for mustache guys but so bad none of my previous mates had a beard except Lucien. His eyes dazzled in wonder with a sinful smirk across his lips as he watched me gawk at him but I ignored his behavior and focused back on his appearance. I have never seen a guy like this before, he looked so different and appealing at the same time which seems strange. I could tell that he has this devil may care outlook, he has a bristly eyebrow with a hawkish nose. Despite the clothes that he was putting on, I could still see his broad muscular shoul
Juliana's Pov:We arrived at the black storm pack, the guards rushed and pulled the giant black gate wide for him to drive in. My heart kept throbbing fast within, I sat nervously in the passenger seat while fiddling with my fingers. I stared out at the widow, there were many guards at every corner. "Wow!" I exclaimed with a surprised look as he drove inside, he spared me a quick look before turning his attention back to the road. He has a smirk on his lips, my eyes shone brightly and I have a flush of excitement on my pale cheeks. The pack looked incredible more than the way people described it, the place is so inviting and mesmerizing. I continued staring around and I didn't know when our truck stopped moving. Noticing that I have been staring at one spot for a while now, I turned to him with an angry brow to know why he stopped the car. "Why did you stop?" I curiously muttered."We have reached our destination," he said. When trying to suppress his laugh. Why is he laughing? Wha
Juliana's Pov:Stepping inside the room, all eyes were on us. They all irk a powerful aura. Their cold eyes pierced directly at me which made me want to shrink back and hide behind him. I still didn't even know his name but that is not an issue because I am flicking out already. None of them had a smile on their faces, my legs started getting weaker as we strode inside the room. The guards there stared at me with disgust and if I am not mistaken almost all of them had their eyes fixed on me at one spot with a look of irritation they bore their eyes at me. I yelled within for the ground to open and swallow me up but it looks like at this moment that the ground also has an ear of its own because it seems like I am alone in this one.All alone with no one to run unto, or to comfort me. It was as if I was in a den full of wild creatures waiting for an opportunity to strike and devour me.I tightened my grip on him and with difficulty, I managed to keep up with his pace. With a nervous loo
Juliana's pov:My heart sank as my throat jumped inside my stomach within a twinkle of an eye. I had my eyes popped out of their socket, he gritted his teeth in anger not paying attention to my sudden behavior. His full scrutiny was focused on his mother, his facial expression doesn't even seem to flatter her, and she still has her no-nonsense look on. "He is the king," I didn't care about the bickering going on between Ryan and his mother, I pondered on the issue that still has me restless. The idea of Ryan being the king fears me and getting close to him is one scary thing because it will surely lead to my doom. He is not good for me and I know that whatever I feel for him is lust and nothing serious. His mother was right, I am nothing and don't exist and that's how I want my stay here to be like. I want to be invisible to the extent that no one will have any idea that I exist.He was angry to the extent of letting his Lycan out, the elderly men shifted to the other standpoint wit
Ryan's pov:I slammed the door forcefully behind me, as I walked inside my study with anger and fury. I left to calm myself down, I know how much I battled to control myself from snapping my mother's head right there. Despite everything, she is my mother. I couldn't have talked to her in that manner but the girl in question was my MATE! I sighed when pacing around to know if I could be able to calm my nerves, Ethan is outraged and I am finding it difficult to control him. Not only Ethan was angered, but I was also losing my cool when my mother was vomiting those harsh words and spitting them at my mate. The girl that I have longed to have in my arms, the one that I had waited throughout my life to cross paths with.Speaking of her, I wonder what she is doing…… Where is she? Ruffling my hair, I grumbled "Only God knows what my mother has done to her," I couldn't have left her all alone there at the mercy of my mother. I know how hard and harsh she could be sometimes.How am I to tell
Ryan's pov:I stomped back and forth on my bedroom floor, waiting for Liam to come. I can feel the rage rising with each step, no matter what I do or think the anger was still there. The pain that my mother caused and the idea of not knowing how to woo my mate. Counting to ten……. Or taking a deep breath, still, nothing happens. I can't just come to terms. I thought that finding my mate could make me happy but no! It had me confused and worried. I have been inside my room for days now, thinking about how to go about this whole thing. Liam wasn't at fault, I shouldn't have raised my voice at him…….. He didn't do anything bad for wanting to check up on me, it was all my fault, I couldn't have left her there but at the same time, I didn't know how to explain to her that we are mates! Without sounding stupid. My mom won't approve of us being mated to each other, she will request rejection and with how terrified and scared Ashley was that day. She won't think twice before giving in, I just
Juliana's pov:This place is fascinating and cozy but so bad I couldn't say the same for myself, this place is hell for me! I am in the deepest part of hell with no one to rescue me. Margaret is always at my neck, sometimes I feel like choking. I am always at their bay and call. Eating is not an option here, but they always ensure that I work myself to death. I haven't seen Ryan for weeks now and I am more than grateful for that, though part of me still craves him. His warm touch on me and the peaceful sensation that he always brings to me whenever he is around me. I craved to be in his arms, I wanted him all over me."Snap out of it, Juliana, he can never be yours," I yelled at myself. I know that whatever I feel for him is nothing but lust, I am just lusting over him, nothing much but come to think of it, who wouldn't want him with those his physique and height? My throat tastes bitter as the idea of other women gawking at him blurred my vision. "Come on! Juliana, they can lust o
The day of execution has finally arrived, as expected every werewolf is striding inside the black storm pack to witness the death of the mystery girl.King Ryan on the other hand was dressing up in his room when suddenly the door to his room was quickly pulled open gaining his attention."What is it?" He asked his beta, Liam."The….. The mystery girl is nowhere to be found," Liam said when puffing-out air.Ryan's face scrunched in anger before he dashed out of his room and stridden toward the cell, reaching the place. He found his warriors assigned to the place still lying on the floor snoring.Anger and frustration clouded his mind, he knew that someone might have helped the girl escape.He watched his mother and Bianca run down the stairs upon hearing the news toward him."What is it that we are hearing, son?" His mother asked with a nervous look."The news is all over the place," Bianca said with a heavy breath."Check the names of those that have been absent from this pack since y
The whole werewolf realm had heard about the mystery girl, the news was all over the place.She disguised herself and sneaked into their presence for a while now and even went to the extent of dating the king but now she has been captured, that was the rumor all over the place.An unconscious Juliana was trapped inside a huge iron cell with heavy guards around there. Nobody leaves or enters the place except the king and the royals.The day for her execution was issued by King Ryan, and the whole people were happy except her only friend Aria.The news came as a shock to her but she still believes that she meant no harm and could never allow them to slash Juliana's head just like that.Though she does know what to do, as each day approaches clocking closer to her deadline, Aria wasn't herself anymore. The fear of losing the one person that means a lot to her weighed her down.On a fateful night against tomorrow, which is the execution day, Aria was seen pacing around in the kitchen with
Queen Rebecca's pov:A satisfactory smile settled on my lips as I walked around my room with a glass of wine in my hand.The joy that I didn't lose my child and also the happiness that he couldn't remember that brat.Sipping my drink, I kept murmuring some happy songs.I think that I have to use this opportunity and execute my plan of making Bianca his wife.Besides, he remembers her and they are bonding well now unlike before. So I guess that it won't be hard for me to make things work in my favor.I can't wait to see the defeated look on your face, Ashley, when my son will finally choose Bianca over you.____________________________________Juliana's pov:It has been weeks now and Ryan still hasn't recalled his memory about us.I have decided to leave but he refused that step my foot out of this pack.It annoys me that he wouldn't want to let me go, I can't stand watching him and Bianca all cozy.The news is all over the pack, it is the topic flying around the pack now.Some stare a
Juliana's pov: I could hear some noises outside, opening my eyes, I noticed that I was back in my old slave room. I quickly sat upright on the cold floor where I was lying, confusion clouded my vision.How did I get here? The last time that I remembered, I was in Ryan's room."Ryan!" I said in a hurry. I wonder how he is doing by now, I stood up and hurried down the hallway toward his room.On reaching his room, I noticed that his door was locked. I glanced around thoughtfully before rushing to his office but still, it was locked.I decided to go ask Queen Rebecca if she might have seen Ryan.I could feel a nagging pain in my heart, the pain was much but I paid no attention to it.My mind was screaming for me to go back and not to go near Queen Rebecca's chamber but I ignored the feelings and shook off the restlessness.Almost to her chamber, I could hear her laugh and that of Ryan.Joy sneaked into my face as I heard his voice, so he is fine.I hurried to the door and suddenly pul
Juliana's pov: It has been months now since I left the palace, and it has been months since I haven't heard from Ryan. I am almost changing back to my old self, my long pink flowy hair is coming out. Though my face hasn't changed, my hair and skin are returning to their old self.I have been wandering around the woods for months now without any destination.I fed on the dead critters and fruits, it hasn't been easy but I know that I made the right decision.Ryan wants the mystery girl to die and that means me, I don't want to see the disgust on his face for me when he finds out.I have looked for the old woman that changed me for months now but I couldn't remember the path that leads to her cave. I sighed and got up from where I was sitting before walking inside the woods for a hunt. Striding inside, I heard a group of people discussing about the king and that got my attention and at the same time made me curious.Inching closer, I hide in a huge tree as I eavesdrop on their conve
Bianca's pov:I walked out of the room to find Queen mother pacing around the hallway with the different sorceresses and healers entering and walking out of Ryan's room.I stared at them all with confusion and surprise. What is going on here? Why is everywhere in chaos and tattered? With curiosity, I walk up to the Queen mother and noticed that she is crying furiously with Liam by his side"What is going on here?" I asked Liam since the Queen mother spared me no glance."I don't know what is going on with Ryan," he mumbled and I staggered back with my eyes wildly open and that's when Juliet's words hit me."If I can't have Ryan then none of us will have him," my eyes watered on recalling her words."What are you talking about and how do you know?" I said in one go with fear evident in my voice.I watched Liam run his hands ``From the prophecy, it was said that he is suffering from an unknown illness !!" He gritted his teeth."From an unknown illness!" I repeat with shock."So what a
Bianca's pov:I slid out of my car and went toward the gate of the bright moon pack. On seeing me the guards bowed before informing their Alpha through a mind link.Not quite long before I was allowed to enter the pack, they led me toward the direction where their Alpha awaits my visits."Good day, Lucien," I smiled before taking a seat in front of him.I am goddamn Lycan and you don't expect me to bow for him."It is a surprising thing to have you visit me," he seemed shocked."Things do happen, you can never predict," I said with drawn lips."Yeah, I guess right," he mumbled."So tell me what do I owe for this visit," "Nothing is just that I needed to let you know some certain things," my eyes twinkled mischievously, confusing him."Things like….?" "Where has your wife been?" "I didn't have a wife," he blurted out."But you have a luna?" "Why are you here?" "Not proud of her," I asked"Why are you here?" He said, trying to change the topic."Oh! I see….." I smiled."So tell me
Bianca's pov: I strode the passageway in surprise, I noticed everyone mourning and sobbing and I couldn't comprehend what was going on.With curiosity, I started inching closer to the crammed crowd. I kept pushing them sideways as I squeezed myself through the crowd not minding that I am rubbing my body with the ordinary pack members. Getting the sight of me, they kept shifting away. I could hear Naomi and Kaiden's lamentation voices echoing throughout the place.Margaret stood by the corner as she had her head lowered, the omegas were in tears, and this all exacerbated my curiosity. I forced myself to the front but what I saw made me choke breathing. It was as if everything around me stopped moving.My eyes went wide, my mouth hanging open. I shut my eyes as I felt my anger spikes and fury overcome me. Opening my eyes, I swallowed down in frustration as I tamped down my irritation.I stare at Iris lying lifeless on the floor with her two friends beside her as they cry their eyes
Bianca's pov: I could feel the nagging sensation in my heart, I felt very angry to even think about anything.I strode angrily into my room, pacing back and forth in deep thought.I lifted my head as I felt the door pull open, striding from it was Iris."You called, Miss….." She bowed slightly with her head lowered."Yes! I called," I mumbled."Lift your head because I want to be looking straight into your eyes as I say these things," I instructed and she complied immediately."Juliet the luna of the bright moon pack will be staying in this palace for days from now…." I swallowed bitterly."Yes! Her room has been prepared and arranged," Iris countered."Good…..hmm," I smiled bitterly when nodding my head forward."I want you to be her personal servant," "Miss but she said that she doesn't need any servant," "Hmm…… she did," "Yes!" "Huh! You think that you are smart, Juliet," I cursed in between gritty teeth."I called you because I need you to carry out an assignment for me," I a
