Maeve’s POV I ran my fingers up Xaden’s incredible body; his 6-pack smooth to the touch. My heart was hammering against my chest at rapid speed and my breathing hitched when he lifted me off the ground and sat me on the counter. His lips covered mine in a sweet kiss; it was as if he was asking per
“And what about your brother? Isn’t it his job to keep his fiancé happy?” She asked, tilting her head to the side. “Yes, but apparently they got into an argument and now they won’t speak to one another,” I told her again. “I’m sure he’ll get his head out of his ass soon. I’m going to talk to him l
Maeve’s POV Princess Mia was beautiful; she had to have been the most beautiful woman I had ever seen, and her aura was so strong that it nearly brought me to my knees. I glanced up at Xaden and I wondered briefly how he could possibly look at her and not feel extremely attracted to her. She was
“Sarah, you remember Alpha Kenneth,” Victoria said, motioning for the Alpha. “Yes,” the girl, Sarah, said nodding her head. “And his daughter, Isabelle. The Luna Princess,” Victoria continued, motioning for Isabelle. “Of course,” Sarah said, bowing her head slightly to Isabelle. “It’s an honor
Third Peron POV “Do you really think Xaden would break her heart?” Sarah asked, doubt creeping in. She had been locked away in this dungeon for too long. She was itching to be set free and begin her revenge plan on Maeve. She wanted Maeve to suffer in unimaginable ways for what she had done. “If
“Okay,” she murmured. After they said their goodbyes, Victoria left and returned home to Moonstone. Just before she reached the front door of her home, her phone started to ring in her purse. She sighed and reached for it; she frowned when she saw Bella’s name flash across the screen. “Why are y
Third Person POV King Arlan was furious, and he was completely blindsided. He felt lied to. Just when he accepts the idea of Xaden marrying Maeve, he finds out that she’s nothing but an illegitimate child. He even spoke to Lucas earlier that morning and convinced him to speak with Mia and get th
Emily glanced at her watch and sighed. She stared down at all the bags we were holding; I only bought a couple of things while Emily bought a ton of stuff. “Yeah, let’s bring this stuff to the car and then we can see where they are,” she finally relented. I was relieved to hear her say this. Tog
“Xaden, can’t you hear me? I’m here with your baby! Why won’t you look at me!” I tried once again. But like the other times, I was left ignored and incredibly confused. He disappeared through the forest, leaving me behind without a single word or looking in my direction. He couldn’t see either of
Maeve’s POV I stared at Xaden with my mouth hanging open. His words were like a slap in the face. It stung and I couldn’t help but stagger backwards a little. He didn’t look like he regretted what he had said, and I wasn’t sure what to make of the situation. How could it be that his mother, Char
I swallowed. ‘Yes, sir,” I said. “Let me just freshen up upstairs then. Have you seen my phone?” I asked both my father and Mia. Mia shook her head. No, I haven’t seen it at all,” she said innocently. I nodded and sighed. “Father, can you get a message to Maeve and tell her not to worry ab
Xaden’s POV My heart sank hearing Mia’s voice on the other end. She sounded so distraught and if she wasn’t happy, it could mean a war against the Kingdom. I needed to go there and make sure she was okay. “Yeah, I’ll be right there, Mia,” I assured. “Just hold on.” I hung up the phone and turn
My stomach sank from his words; so even Kenneth noticed this as well? Was something truly gong on between Xaden and Mia? “It’s just a bump in the road,” I murmured. “I’m sure we will get back to our normalcy soon enough. Once Princess Mia marries Prince Lucas and all.” Kenneth raised his brows.
Maeve’s POV I couldn’t get Isabelle’s words out of my head. Xaden was doing this because of the baby… Could he really be coupling with Mia because of the negative test results? I made sure to secure the soonest appointment as I could, which will be in a couple of days. I was riddled with anx
“You’re right,” I finally said. “I’ll talk to her later. But for now, I need to tend to Princess Mia.” My mother gave me a look that didn’t show that she was pleased, and I knew it was the opposite. But she didn’t argue either because she also knew it was my father’s order, and it was my duty. She
Xaden’s POV I know there had to be something wrong with the test results, but I couldn’t seem to face Maeve. When I reached our bedroom, I stared at the bed that I shared with my mate, and I couldn’t help but wonder if everything was a lie. Was she truly my mate? Or was it a lie? Had my father b
“You aren’t angry with me?” I asked her. She narrowed her eyes and stepped back, studying me for a moment. “Should I be?” She asked. “The results were wrong… weren’t they?” I bit my lip and nodded without hesitation. “Yes, of course they were, but—” “But nothing,” she said, holding up her
