Maeve POV I never thought I would lose my V-card on such an ordinary day… and with the most unexpected person. I had indeed fantasized about leaving my current pack, leaving behind my Alpha father, stepmother, and half-sister, and escaping this “family” that treated me like I was nothing but a s
Maeve POV None of these words could adequately describe what I felt at that moment. Had I heard him correctly? I… could go to Sarah’s party? “Why is she allowed to come?” Sarah whined. “It’s my birthday party!” Father approached the open car door and affectionately patted her decorated head.
Xaden POV “Take me home, please,” I sighed. “And don’t stop for anything.” My driver nodded. “Yes, Prince Xaden, sir.” It had been a long, long day… and I wanted nothing more than to go home and rest. I’d met with yet another Alpha’s daughter tonight. Hypothetically speaking, the girl was pe
Maeve POV The first thing I felt when I woke up was the most splitting headache of my life. Second, was an uncomfortable and unfamiliar soreness… down there. Resisting a groan, I knew I’d have some trouble walking. And lastly, I was in a bed that was not my own in a room I didn't recognize.
Xaden POV “Wake up, Your Highness.” That voice… I recognized that voice… and it was one I was not ready to hear. Frowning, I rolled onto my stomach, burrowing as deep into the bed as possible. It was none other than Burke, my Prime Beta—diligent and reliable as ever, having served alongside me f
Maeve POV No. Not Sarah. Anybody but Sarah! My blood ran cold. Of all people, she was the absolute last person I wanted to find out about this… apart from one other person. As the biggest gossip I knew, maybe even in the whole kingdom—she would not hesitate to make this spread like wildfire
Maeve POV “Your Highness,” the room collectively murmured with a bow. Prince Xaden. The crowds dispersed as he strode into the room with authority, and the ground beneath me crumbled. My one-night-stand is Prince Xaden. Seeing him once more in the flesh, without the haziness of a drug-indu
Shocked murmurs floated around behind us. “This can’t be true…” Sarah muttered, appalled. Victoria stepped forward, gaping at me. “Why didn’t you tell us it was the prince you’d been with?” “I… didn’t know...” Honestly. “Wh-Why don’t we continue this matter in my private office, Your Highnes
Nicholas sighed and turned towards me. “They shouldn’t bother us,” he assured me. “Come with me. We can go to the gardens.” I nodded and allowed him to take my arm as we walked towards the back door. Once we reached the gardens and I saw no guards in sight, I sighed deeply. “So, your father is
Maeve’s POV I couldn’t believe it… I stared up at him in shock, my mouth nearly on the ground. “Maeve…” Nicholas said, his eyes dark and narrowed in my direction as he stared between Alpha Kenneth and me. “What are you doing here?” He asked, his eyes finally settling on me. “She’s my guest,” K
I grabbed the doorknob and pulled it open, only to be faced with those guards again. “The Alpha wanted us to escort you to the dining hall for dinner,” One of them told me. I nibbled on my lower lip and nodded. I didn’t have anything to change into, so I guess the clothing I was wearing would ha
Maeve’s POV What was I doing? I shouldn’t have left like I did. I was carrying Xaden’s baby, and I couldn’t even stick around to talk to him. I went right into running away. I kept telling myself that I just needed to take some space and clear my head. But truth be told, I wasn’t sure when I wa
“That’s kind of you, but not necessary,” I told him, remembering that the last pristine doctor he set me up with gave a false paternity test and pretty much ruined my life. If it weren’t for that one test, Xaden wouldn’t have strayed to another. “I have a really good doctor that I trust.” Kenneth
Maeve’s POV Victoria gave me a smug look and then stepped away as she turned to face Alpha Kenneth. “Alpha Kenneth,” she said in greeting. “Maeve was teetering on your territory and I’m doing my services by taking care of the issue. She is my daughter after all and it’s my responsibility to make
She stared up at him and saw that he was serious, but she wasn’t so sure if he was right. She just hoped that her son made the right choice and didn’t break Maeve’s heart. …. Maeve’s POV The mansion was quiet; it was late in the evening, and I knew most of the mansion staff were sleeping, incl
Third Person POV The Queen and King remained in the garden a moment longer with Princess Mia. She had watched Xaden leave the gardens with a lungful expression on her face and then she sighed. The conversation wasn’t exactly how she planned; his viewpoints on certain topics were a bit alarming and
“Then what exactly were you trying to do exactly?” I asked him. “You didn’t really try to woo her now, did you?” “No…” he murmured, shuffling in his shoes. “I didn’t and that’s the reason I’m sorry. You have to pick up the slack because of me. Now she’s set to marry you…” “You knew about this?”
