Xaden’s POV That one maid looked so familiar, but I couldn’t figure out where I had seen her before. She was very nervous about being around me, and I wondered if it was because I was a royal, or because of something else. It almost felt like she was hiding something. I brushed the thought out o
“Do you need to visit the pack clinic?” I asked. “I could make some arrangements and—” “You are very kind,” she said quickly, stopping me. “But no… thank you though.” I nodded and watched as she turned and ran further away from me. That was such a strange encounter. I wasn’t sure what to think o
Third Person POV “He’s such a jerk!” Mia hissed in her room, folding her arms across her chest as she paced back and forth. “They can’t seriously expect me to marry such an asshole.” “Oh, but you must. Your father ordered it,” Emily reminded her. “I’m sure it was just a misunderstanding.” “You
“Oh, of course,” the Queen said with a small frown; she couldn’t mask her slight disappointment. “I didn’t mean to put so much pressure on you. Meet me down in the foyer and I’ll grab Lucas.” Mia nodded as the queen left. Mia spent the next several minutes getting ready to meet her fiancé for the
She pressed her lips in a thin line and folded her arms across her chest. He was one to talk; he didn’t research anything about the Vixen community either! “I did, but I’d like to know about them from you and not what I’ve read online. You know, stories online aren’t always true,” she told him,
Third Person POV “Wait a minute, where are you going??” Lucas asked as he sprung to his feet. Mia was storming away, clearly pissed off at him. “Anywhere but here. I refuse to marry an asshole like you,” she said, keeping her head held high. “Well, I don’t think you have much of a choice. You
After a moment, the guard opened the door wider and allowed Mia to enter the office. “Your majesty, may we speak?” Mia asked him. He looked up from his paperwork and smiled at her. “Of course,” he said, quickly standing to his feet. His main priority was ensuring Mia was satisfied; if she wasn
Xaden’s POV “Xaden, I need to speak with you for a moment,” my father said as he intercepted me before I was able to leave for the day. I hadn’t seen Maeve all day and I was itching to return home and spend a little time with her. I sighed and turned to my father. “Yeah, sure,” I said to him a
“It was an order from the King,” Nicholas explained. “It’s our duty to protect the entire Kingdom, not just the Capital. Some issues need to be addressed in the Starlight pack.” “Yes, but we have gamma officers there that can take care of it,” he reminded Nicholas, his brows pinched together. “Are
She thought about it for a moment, her eyes still fixed on the pendant. “That’s where things got blurry in the vision,” she admitted. “I’m not entirely sure what made Alpha Burton keep Maeve. But I do know that Maeve is more powerful than anyone ever thought. And that baby inside of her is even mo
Xaden’s POV “What?” I gasped. “Are you saying Alpha Burton killed Maeve’s mother??” Orenda seemed a bit dazed and exhausted. She must have had some kind of vision because her eyes were still a bit dilated. I wasn’t sure if I believed in this whole psychic thing, but I do believe that something j
I thought she was going to refuse me again and turn me away, but to my surprise, she unlocked the door and pushed it open, the door chime jingling softly from the motion. “Get in,” she ordered, glancing around to make sure no one else could see me entering her shop. I stepped into the shop, and
She never told anyone that this necklace belonged to her birth mother. The only thing I truly knew about Maeve’s history was the fact that Alpha Burton had an affair a long time ago and her birth mother died, leaving her the necklace. But I was the only one who knew that information. It seemed that
Xaden’s POV The longer we searched, the more anxious I was getting. My wolf was going crazy not knowing where our mate was. It seemed as if we were going in circles. One minute, I would pick up her scent in a certain area, and then the next minute, it would go away and return to a different area.
She nodded. “Okay?” She urged. “I need you to throw them off her scent,” he continued. He reached into his pocket and grabbed Maeve’s sock. He managed to swipe it off her after she passed out in his office. “Send them on a wild goose chase.” Victora stared wide-eyed at the sock and then back u
Third Person POV In Kenneth’s mind, he was hoping that Maeve would willingly want to stay in his pack. He hoped that she would see on her own that Prince Xaden didn’t deserve her and the one that was there for her was none other than Nicholas. However, he could see in her eyes that she was determi
“He’s a great friend,” I replied. “I’m glad to be able to know him. I’m still thrown over the fact that he’s your son. I honestly had no idea.” Kenneth nodded as he stared at me thoughtfully. “He’s a good man,” Kenneth said, his eyes never leaving mine. “He would make a suitable mate and father.
