Arthur's POV

I stood outside Luna’s house as the early morning air brushed against my skin. I took in deep breaths walking in. Today was the day of the punishment, I didn't know how long I would be out, I needed to make sure Ava was okay before I left.

I had asked Amelia to help Ava move to Luna's house and place her under twenty-four security.

I walked to her room calmly when I finally got to her room, I froze midway unsure whether to knock, suddenly the door creaked.

Ava froze, staring at like she had seen a ghost.

“Ava,” I said softly as I stepped inside. “How are you feeling?”

She shrugged, brushing her hair away from her face, forcing a smile but not big enough to cover the anxiety in her. “I’m okay, Arthur. Just… tired. I need some rest.”

I nodded. “Can I come in?” I asked. She nodded, moving aside.

As soon as I got inside I turned to her, pulling her into a hug. “I'm sorry for shouting at you yesterday.”

She chuckled. “That's alright, I shouldn't have gone there.”

    Ava's POVThe morning sunlight poured through the tall windows of Luna’s house, warming the air and casting golden streaks across the room.I sat at the head of the table, surrounded by a group of palace maids, their faces a mixture of curiosity. Today was the first time I’d officially met with them, I was nervous at all. After all, their previous leader just died but Charles insisted that they couldn't leave the Luna's house unattended. “I’ve noticed a few things since moving here,” I began, trying to hide my nervousness. “The way things were done under Lady Eleanor doesn’t have to remain the same. You are all a vital part of this house, and I want to hear your thoughts on how we can improve things.”The servants exchanged confused glances at each other, I could tell this wasn’t something they were used to…being asked for their opinions.“I know Lady Eleanor just died and we are all grieving her loss,” I paused, scanning through the room. These people looked happy, no one look

    AVA'S POV. The man’s grip on my wrist was strong, and no matter how much I tried to pull away, I couldn’t break free. My heart pounded in my chest as I stared at him. “Let me go!” I shouted, panic making my voice shaky. “Arthur will kill you for this, Do you hear me? You won’t get away with it!”But he just responded with a laugh, almost mocking me. “Arthur?” he said, shaking his head with a grin. “That’s the point. I want Arthur to come for me, Oliver wants him to see this. This is a message he can’t ignore.”I scoffed, trying to bite his hands but he didn't react to it. What's this man? Was he made of steel?“The only message that will be passed is your head to Oliver,” I spat. “Arthur wouldn't let you be.”The man stopped walking and turned to face me. His dark eyes were cold as he sneered. “You still don’t get it, do you?” he said.“I have been following you for days, from the day Oliver's death was announced till the time we knew that he was alive, my eyes have been on the roy

    AUTHOR'S POV.Charles walked nervously down the long, dimly lit corridor, his boots echoing against the cold marble floors. He glanced at Elena, who walked beside him with her chin held high, her expression calm as though not affected by what happened to Ava. Charles couldn't hold it in, he clenched his fists turning to her. “Where were you?” He frowned. “I don't think that's what is bothering you,” she replied coldly. “But if you must know I have been quite busy.”“With what?” He snapped. Elena halted, slowly turning her head to him, her face filled with venom. He halted and turned to her. “My life isn't tied to Arthur anymore and besides I am still on the lookout for Oliver and Lady Eleanor's murderer.”Charles nodded gently before they resumed walking. “You know Arthur will lose it when he finds out,” Charles said. “An impure wolf managed to kidnap Ava…his Luna. Do you think he will let that slide?”Elena’s lips curved into a faint smirk, her expression unreadable. “That’s n

    Arthur's POVThe room fell silent, the only thing that was heard was Charles's heavy breathing as he stared at the head of the head sentinel in charge of Ava, his face filled with fear. I stared at Charles and Elena, my glowing eyes flickering between their nervous faces.“Explain to me,” I began, my voice low but full of venom. “How my Ava was kidnapped by an impure wolf under your watch,” I paused with a scoff, my eyes filled with disdain. “How could an impure wolf outsmart at least ten pure, trained sentinels?” I growled, my fists clenched as I glared at both of them.Charles swallowed hard, his body trembling slightly. “Arthur, we didn’t…”I cut him off with a growl, stepping closer. “Did I give you permission to speak?”He snapped his mouth shut, his fists clenched at his sides. Beside him, Elena stood unbothered, her arms crossed under her breasts, her expression calm.“Let’s start with you, Elena,” I said, fixing her with a glare that could have frozen hell. “How, exactly, di

Her eyes were fixed on the ceiling, it was clear she was lost in thought. “Ava,” I called softly, walking closer to her. Her head turned towards me, her lips pressing into a thin line. “Arthur,” she whispered.I walked closer, standing at the foot of her bed, my arms crossed on my chest. “Do you understand the severity of what happened today?”She sat up, wincing slightly. “I do, but—”“No,” I interrupted, my voice hard. “You don’t. You endangered yourself and our child. Do you have any idea what could have happened if Elizabeth hadn’t intervened? You could’ve been killed!”She gripped the sheets tightly, her jaw tightening. “I didn’t plan for this to happen, Arthur. I went to the hospital with Amelia, and…”“And nothing,” I snapped, cutting her off. “From this moment on, you are under house arrest. You will not leave this room unless I allow it. No one enters

    Ava POVLooking at the man that’s sleeping beside me, I couldn't help but feel fulfilled.We have our share of heartbreaks and betrayal from people we least expected it from but we overcome every obstacle together.I can’t ask for a better mate.My very own Devil Alpha.FLASHBACK *****My bones were breaking.I let out another throat-itching scream as my right ankle twisted painfully into itself, the pull bringing me down to my knees. My hands were chained to the ground with a padlock at either corner of the dark room, the only light coming in being the bright glow of the full moon.The fucking full moon; yet another one.I hated it and I was using 'hate' very mildly. I dreaded the changes that came with it, one of which being how I chained myself to the ground in the underground basement Penny had built a couple of years ago to avoid going on a rampage and killing some innocent human.My fangs pulled out painfully and I yelled out in pain, knowing it was coming. The resilient urge to

    Ava POV"Have you seen this?"I leaned forward to look into Anna’s phone. Aside from the cute picture of a green-eyed cat pouting on what looked like a very soft pillow, I didn't see anything worth gasping. "What? I don't see anything."She scoffed, shoving the phone closer to my face. "Look well. There's a ball.""Ball?" I asked disbelievingly. It was the twenty-first century. Balls weren't a thing anymore. "Be for real."But even as I looked, I could see she wasn't bluffing."Alpha Arthur James has announced he would be hosting a ball at his Villa to formally celebrate his reign as Alpha, and he has stated he would be picking a bride too." Anna read out loud. "Holy shit. He has just released a shitstorm, and he doesn't even know it."I was lost. I didn't want to seem like I'd been living under a rock since I was born, but the question begged to be asked."Who the hell is Arthur James?"The silence was deafening. After a few beats, Anna moaned. "You've got to be kidding me."I chu

    Arthur POVI looked down around the large ballroom again and took a sip from the glass of wine in my hand as I leaned against the wall at one corner of the landing, wishing I was somewhere else. There were probably over two hundred women present and I didn't find one even remotely attractive.From where I was standing, no one from below could see me. The room had been built for occasions such as this as my father had liked to throw parties and organize soirees just for the heck of it.Not for the first or second time, I cursed my father in his grave. The man had never liked me doing anything fun when he was alive and I didn't want to think about how impressive it was that he still somehow managed to find a way to get under my skin even now that he was dead."That is not the face of a man enjoying his evening."I turned to see Amelia walking towards me with a sneer on her lips."That is probably because I am not," I replied wryly, emptying the glass and then immediatelyregretting it

    AVA'S POV.I couldn’t stop shaking as I entered my house. I was filled with fear and guilt. I still couldn't believe I saw Lady Eleanor's dead body. My hands trembled as I shut the door, and I moved quickly to my bed feeling like I might collapse at any moment. Once inside, I dropped onto my bed, burying my face in my hands as the tears started flowing down. Lady Eleanor’s lifeless face kept flashing in my mind, and every time it did, I got so scared that I thought she might just come out from behind.How could she have died? Why did the girl kill her? What could Lady Eleanor have done to her?“This is all my fault,” I whispered, swallowing hard. “I led her into danger, why did I even play this game with her.”I hugged my knees to my chest, gripping the clothes. Tears rolled down my cheeks.The sound of the door creaking open made me flinch. My head raised up, and my heart started pounding harder. It was like Lady Eleanor was the one stepping in, I held my breath waiting to see th

    Arthur’s POVThe drive back to the palace was almost difficult. My hands gripped the steering wheel so tightly as I bit my lips. My mind was clouded with different thoughts, and my heart going through different emotions all at once. I felt guilty, sad, confused, heartbroken. Every time I closed my eyes, I saw Lady Eleanor’s face. She had been everything to me, she was there for me when I lost my parents, and she was also there for my mother when my mother was alive. “Fuck,” I cussed, slamming my fists on the steering wheel, my breath heavy.By the time I reached the palace gates, the sentinels rushed to me informing me of the urgent meeting. Inside, the elders were waiting, seated in the council chamber like judges ready to pass sentence. Their stern faces were etched with disappointment and disapproval. “Arthur,” an elder began, his voice filled with venom. “This tragedy cannot be ignored. Lady Eleanor’s death is a direct failure of your leadership.”“I am fully aware of the g

She was the only person acting as a parent to me, how could I be so careless as to chase her to her death?I wasted no time, I headed straight to the estate, driving as fast as I could that I almost got involved in a car accident.When I arrived, I met reporters crowded at the gates, I drove in immediately, asking the guards to shut the gates. The last thing I wanted now was reporters filming get body. I got out of my car, scanning through the place, I saw the Gamma talking to some men and suddenly my fists clenched as my eyes sighted Ava. “Ava,” I barked, rushing to her. She had a lot of explaining to do.She was standing in the corner, clutching her bag like the bag was the one holding her life. Her face was pale and her eyes filled with fear as she breathed he
