Xaden’s POV “I don’t know what Alpha Kenneth would want with her, but I did find out something today and she and our baby are put in the wrong hands… it could be bad,” I said, staring up at my father who narrowed his eyes at me. “What are you talking about?” My father asked. “She’s perfectly s

Maeve’s POV I wasn’t sure how long I had been here for. There was no sense of time where I was. But it felt as if days had passed. Occasionally, a guard would come and give me a tray of food and some water. I refused to eat anything they had given me though; I wasn’t sure what they would put insid
Kenneth nodded. “Do what you must,” he murmured. “How is her nutrition? Has she been eating?” The doctor asked, still looking up at Kenneth. “No, she hasn’t,” he muttered. “Or drinking.” “It’s going to kill the baby if she doesn’t eat and drink something,” she explained, making my heart sque
Xaden’s POV My head was whirling by the time we left Alpha Burton’s house. My father told him that we would deal with him later, for right now, we needed to find Maeve. It wasn’t often that my father and I agreed on something… but in this case, we were both completely on the same page. Maeve was
“We don’t blame you, Nicholas,” My father surprised me by saying. “Speak for yourself,” I nearly growled but one look from my father made me stand down immediately. “You’ve been a loyal commander for a long time. You aren’t to blame here,” my father continued, putting a hand on his shoulder. N
Xaden’s POV “I thought you said you could find the underground dungeon easily?” I asked, feeling frustrated as I glared at Princess Mia. “We’ve been here for hours with no progress.” “And none of the guards know where the dungeon is…” Nicholas muttered, folding his arms across his chest. “The Ki
Kenneth was glad that he made the decision to keep his packhouse gammas away from the dungeon. None of them knew where the hidden underground dungeon was, which meant they couldn’t give up their location. However, he knew they’d be able to track his scent if he were to go straight to the dungeon, es
I knew it was because of that lavender tea I was given, but still, it was a surreal feeling. Eric hadn’t said anything for a long while, but he kept sparing glances at me, studying me like I was a complicated puzzle to figure out.Mirage had a fire stick, and she was aimlessly poking at the fire, fa
Xaden’s POVHow was it possible she was taken right from under our noses?” I asked through my teeth, my wolf surging forward, ready to rip apart the entire world to find our mate and our unborn pup. Maggi was crying as she sat on the couch, my father had questioned her numerous times, trying to figu
I felt the magical aura surrounding this place and I turned to look at Mirage.“There’s a protective shield around this place,” I said to her; it wasn’t a question, just an observation.She smiled and then nodded, glancing up at the sky.“Yes, we put a protective shield to keep us hidden from the cr
Maeve’s POV“Here, drink this,” a young woman said as she placed a mug on the bedside table. I watched as steam rose from the cup, the lavender scent filling my senses and calming my every nerve despite how scared and worried I was.I was on a dangerous island with a coven that was supposed to be de
“What?” I asked, my voice coming out barely audible. “I… I don’t understand.”“I’m not sure how much you already know about us, but we are the remaining members of the Red Oak Tribe.”My mouth nearly fell to the ground at her reveal. I stared around her face, the shock nearly consuming me. The Red O
Maeve’s POV“I think she’s waking up.”“She looks so much like Esmeralda, it’s crazy.”“Sssh, give her some space.” I woke to the sound of murmurs all around me, mostly women, but I could feel the presence of a man or two as well. The smell of a burning fire invaded my nose, and I felt the warm am
I glared, my wolf surging forward and an intimidating manner, making the man before me flinch. He was bound to a chair with silver cuffs, making him weak and impossible to shift into his wolf.“Then why did I find these photographs in your belongings?” I asked, holding up a few photos of the royal f
Third Person POVCharlotte stared after Nicholas, her heart in her throat. She made a fool out of herself; she was sure of it. What had gotten into her? She had never once thought about Nicholas in such a manner, but lately, she hadn’t been able to get him out of her mind. It started the other night
It wouldn’t be long before she followed their father into the afterlife.Hell was a hot place, Nicholas thought to himself.“And as for you…” Arlan said, narrowing his eyes at Nicholas who straightened his posture, waiting to hear what the King had in store for him. He made it clear he had nothing t
