It has been a week already, Wren kept on accompanying her mate on a daily basis. She learned a decent amount of information and skills and she felt all the more productive not just a consumer.

Zanthus on the other hand was more than happy to teach her new things and show her life around the castle, their bond grew stronger and none of them liked staying away for a long period of time.

It was night already and after a long day spent in his study Wren felt weary, she walked towards their bed in her silky nightgown and threw herself face first, sighing in satisfaction. Nothing could beat the contentment of when your body is relaxing after a long day.

Wren didn't fight sleep, as a dreamless slumber consumed her, she couldn't even find it in herself to cover her shivering body, the fireplace was lit but the nightgown did nothing to provide some protection against the harshness of the weather.

The young Luna felt a presence behind her, yet she didn't have to turn around to find out who it w

    Taking off her hood, Wren ran towards the fireplace.Zanthus double locked the door to the cabin and proceeded walking towards his mate who sat happily on the couch facing the only source of heat in the room."I see you are happy, don't you like the castle or what?" he smiled patting her head.Wren shrugged, locking eyes with him she responded " I don't like staying in one place for a long period of time. I mean the castle is beautiful, extravagant even but i wanted something different tonight." she smiled knowing that he understood her very well.The young Luna put her head on his right thigh as she turned into a little ball on the couch, the flames lit her face and she looked simply ethereal. The Alpha King's thumb caressed her cheek without a thought as he looked at the fire, he felt blessed. His mate between his arms, safe and sound. She even got used to him and no longer denied him his rights. He wanted to give her the world and yet it wouldn't be enough for such an angel.Wren s

    It has been a month, there was nothing other than the hustle and bustle around the castle's corridors.The King was on top of his duty, so was the queen. Nothing out of control other than emotions, wild emotions.The Alpha was never resilient to show his female how important her existence is in his life, and Wren grew fond of her mate; more than ever. She saw the good in him, the way he treats her, the way he handles her and her feelings.Until one eventful night, the Alpha king received a letter sent with a messenger stating that his father's kingdom is under attack and the rebellion is getting way out of control.To Zanthus it seemed like a strategical attack."What are you going to do?" asked a pale mate; she found herself aching to touch him or have any physical contact.Wren nestled her face in his neck as she straddled him only the velvety red sheets covering her frame."I will protect my father's kingdom at any price Wren." He spoke deep in thought."I know." She whispered his

    In her state of shock; Wren opened her once closed eyes to meet her fate."Your scent called for me from miles away." He smirked, "Nice try." Added an amused Zanthus.Yet, he wasn't the one who opened the jar. In fact, he was majestically sitting on a chair; waiting for her to stand up.Wren looked up at the guard who didn't dare look at his Luna. With great difficulty, she made it to her full height with vegetables hanging from various places on her dress and a nest of herbs on her head; she was a sight indeed."Please let me explain." She begged; giving him her signature puppy eyes."There's nothing to explain." He declared; swiftly picking her up from the basket and landing her on the ship's wooden grounds.Dragging her towards his private room; his fist grabbed her hair in a gentle hold. Moving her head to the right side for better access to his mark, Zanthus smiled in her neck."I love your bravery." He whispered; "But you will face the consequences of going against my orders." H

    Dark and freezing, was the atmosphere around the ship. Yet, inside was something else.Every werewolf had its own heat protecting him from the painfully cold weather; for Wren, it was her mate.Lying underneath her King, he knew very well how to extract information through painful pleasure. And as big as the fear of others hearing her, she still couldn't let anything in."So Rebecca was it." Smirked the Alpha King after changing his clothes and comfortably sitting on the chair behind his wooden desk.Wren nervously turned her back to him ashamed of the fact that she was too weak to keep her mouth shut. She tightly held the silky sheet to herself in frustration."What are you going to do now?" She asked fear lacing her voice.Smiling at how innocent his mate is, Zanthus decided to tease her further, "I still have a lot of time to think of a punishment for both of you rebels." Alarmed, Wren turned around abruptly. With great difficulty, she covered herself with his shirt and made her w

    "Congratulations! your female is expecting." informed the healer while professionally touching her belly.The happiness she saw in his eyes told her how happy and proud he was. He held her hand before leading it to his lips and planting a kiss on her palm."Thank you." He nodded freeing the healer to leave the room."Are you happy?" Whispered a now tearful young lady."Beyond happy. You made me the happiest man alive baby." He whispered in her ear while hugging her arm to his chest.He put his large hand on her belly vocalizing what's on his mind. "My pup is so lucky to have a mother like yourself, I can't wait to see your belly start swelling." He smiled genuinely."And lucky to have you too." She giggled getting ticklish.Meanwhile, The omegas provided their Luna with a set of clean clothes. Zanthus took it in his hand to help his female change into her new humble clothes before leading her to lay on their bed after calling for one of the healers accompanying them on the journey."

    Wren woke up in a comfortable warm bed, she felt so relaxed and pampered.Looking around her, the curtains were unfamiliar as well as the whole room.The young Luna stole a glance to her side, then towards the ceiling; the room screamed royal and she knew they have reached the castle just as promised by her Alpha King."I guess I slept on the way here." She whispered itching her head in confusion.She stood up leaving the soft bed towards one of the huge windows, the scenery was stunning. It seemed to be much warmer here than back home.Not knowing what to do in an unfamiliar place, the young lady decided to sit down on the bed and wait for her mate, she was nowhere near ready to face his anger again for what he calls irrational behavior. She suddenly gulped remembering her punishment. He promised to chide her once they reached the castle.The door opened and Wren embraced herself to whatever consequence she was about to face; until she looked towards the entrance to be greeted with t

The whole place was new to her and soon enough he will leave to fight in the war along with his father, he knew for a fact that this must be tough on his mate."Everything will be alright, kitten. Now I want you to behave like the Queen you are and mother will always be by your side do not fret." He spoke looking into his eyes as he lowered himself to reach her much shorter height.Wren nodded trying to convince both her heart and her mate that she got this under control and that she would be able to deal with whatever she's going to face in such a new land.Kissing the top of her head, Zanthus proceeded to guide her towards their d

    Remembering the time when she didn't want him around her, when his presence intimidated her and made her uneasy, going a long way she's no more uncomfortable when he's in the same room as her.Wren smiled to herself thinking about what they've been through lately and how beautiful life became when they got used to each other. She would have never thought that she would be comfortable around the Lycan king but seems like her nightmare became a fairytale unexpectedly.They all sat around the table for a private royal breakfast as his mother wanted to have some alone time with her family now that it's the first time her son visits their kingdom along with his mate, something they have been waiting for; for too long."So how's the training going, father?" Asked a serious ruler as he put his fork and knife on either side of his plate and directed his whole attention towards the father."Our elite soldiers are doing their best, your soldiers are doing great; the training is harmonious betwe
