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
“And why didn’t you?” King Arlon asked. “Because she told me about the prophecy,” Butron said as he pulled himself to his feet. “I thought she would be the one to birth the Enigma, so I got her pregnant.” “But she didn’t,” I said, folding my arms across my chest. “No, she didn’t,” Burton said
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
A footstep sounded down the corridor and soon, someone was entering the foyer. I looked up to see former Queen Leonora enter; she still lived in the place, though she kept to herself mostly.“Packs are starting to gather in the Capital center. We should get going,” she announced.“But not everybody
The doors were already opened in preparation for their arrival. It didn’t take long for a very pregnant Charlotte to enter the foyer, a wide grin on her face when she saw us.“I’m so happy to see you!” She cooed as she rushed towards us. “I’ve missed you both so much.”Xaden was the first to hug her
Maeve’s POV10 years later.I pinned my red locks away from my face and brushed the stray strands off my shoulders, giving myself one last look in the mirror. A knock on the door brought me out of my thoughts and I turned in the direction of the door, inviting whoever it was to enter.“Your Majesty,
I glanced briefly at Xaden to see if he had noticed it as well. He was glancing between Nicholas and Charlotte.After a minute, Nicholas turned his attention from Charlotte to the rest of the room.“Sorry to interrupt,” he said, his eyes narrowing as he fixed his attention on Ethan. “But I need ot t
Maeve’s POV I stared at Queen Leonora in shock as she told the room of people, including Eric, that this woman was his mother. Eric’s face was pale as he took in the familiar features of his mother. The eyes that looked like his, the smile that he clearly got from her. Now I knew why she was so fam
“We shouldn’t stay here,” Eric said, breaking through the silence. “There could be more bears lurking around. We should get her back to the palace.”“Maeve, are you okay to walk?” Mirage asked, assessing the blood beneath her. It was an alarming amount of blood, but she was no longer looking pale.M
Xaden’s POVWith the Bear King and most of the bears being dead, the war had concluded. Now it was just time for a final sweep of the territory and some damage control. They also had to find out if there were any other survivors other than the ones that were already at the palace, being protected by
