Leonor pov After getting myself together and trying very hard to ignore my horny wolf I made it up the stairs to the flat . Opening the door I am almost knocked to the floor by Lilith as she jumps on me for details of my date with Orion . I can't help but laugh at her , you would honestly think she was the one dating the Prince . At that thought Jewel starts growling in my head ‘ calm down she is our friend , she is not interested in him ‘ i tell her while mentally rolling my eyes at her . “ Okay okay , let me in Lil “ she just dramatically threw her hands in the air . My best friend is such a drama queen , she has more male interest than anyone i know yet she is a complete romantic . The mate bond is her favourite thing even though she is a witch not a wolf . “ I need to leave for work soon , come on i have been dying to know how it went with the lush Prince Orion “ she highlights the lush just a tad too much for my liking , and without realising i growl or should i say Jewel do
Alpha Prince Orion pov Stretching, I almost fell off the small sofa. That was the best sleep I have had in a long time. Onix was so relaxed being near Leonor and Jewel . Hearing someone clear their throat I look up to and come eye to eye with the redhead , Lilith the witch . “ Coffee ?” she asks, holding up a mug . “Thanks , is Leonor awake “ I ask as I take the mug from her . “ She’s in the shower. She has to work in an hour, “ she replies . I must have been really tired , I didn't even hear Red come home I think while sipping my coffee . For the first time since I arrived last night I took in the small flat. It's neat and tidy , clean but the furniture is worn and old . I hear the shower turn off and I stand as Leonor comes to a stop in front of me in a towel wrapped around her and her while she is towel drying her hair . I can still see the faint sign of the bruising but she is still stunning . “ Morning , did you sleep well ?” she asks with a small smile on her face . “ Best
Leonor pov The castle and grounds were stunning , Orion would point out places and tell me stories about when they were young and the silly things they would get up to . He would introduce me to everyone on our tour . We were just heading back to meet the others for dinner when someone started to call Orion’s name from behind us . Orion’s body instantly became tense and he pinched the bridge of his nose , looking down at me he apologised “ I am sorry about this I'll explain once I manage to get rid of her “ . We spun around and came face to face with a tall pretty female , her clothes were so tight they almost looked painted on and a face full of makeup . Jewel had stood up and was now growling in my head at the sound of the nasally pitch of the female's voice and the flirtatious manner to which she was addressing him . “ Orion darling , who is this little one? “ she says as she looks down at me and touches his bicep . I can't help the growl that comes from Jewel, at her touchi
Alpha Prince Orion Dinner was pleasant , everyone seemed to like Leonor and she looked to be enjoying herself . I felt her unease when Fallon asked her about her wolf . It was kinda funny Leonor would happily tell us about her abusive childhood at the hands of her father but the mention of Jewel she would almost clamp up . My mate felt so protective about her wolf that she kept her a secret , so much so she would fight in her human form . Onix has already linked with Jewel; he was over the moon and the epitome of a love sick puppy . I won't lie, I'm slightly jealous. My beautiful mate is hard to read for me . I try so hard to be patient with her but it's getting hard , especially when I have her so close her heat and scent is like the biggest aphrodisiac to me . She unintentionally keeps leaning into me when she is asked something that makes her uncomfortable . I have no problem with this in fact she is making me feel relaxed , but the need and want to touch her is overwhelming
Leonor pov Entering his room my heart is beating so fast I know he can hear it . His room is twice the size of the one I am in but the decor is similar , the bed is huge with dark linen . “ Are you ok? “ he asks with a concerned look on his face . “ Yes , I mean I am a virgin and I know you probably had loads of female company but …” I mentally slap myself ‘way to go Len ‘ I think just as I feel his heat behind me . I am so nervous my palms are sweating . Orion slowly turns me around by my shoulders , I know I am trembling. I can feel it . “ Leonor , look at me please “ he says and to be honest i didn't even realise i had shut them . “ I grew up with amazing parents who loved each other so much . All I knew and learned was that nothing is compared to the mate bond , they are the missing part of your soul . I have waited for you for a long time . I won't lie to you. I have had females but never for any longer than a night . I am 22 years old and right now with you is the first
Alpha Prince Orion pov I wake as I am thrown into the wall of my room , I jump ready to attack to realise that my tiny mate was glowing . Leonor was clearly having a nightmare , she was thrashing and whimpering in her sleep . ‘ What the fuck ‘ i say in my head , and to say i was shocked by Onix ‘ Our mate’s powers have awoken . ‘ Awoken , what do you mean? ‘ I ask my wolf . ‘ when the chosen descendant of the goddess mates and marks her fated mate her powers will be awoken , come on Orion , why do you think my Jewel is so impressive ?’ . To say I am dumbfounded by this is an understatement . ‘ But how do you know so much about this ?’ I asked him . ‘ Our soul has been entwined forever , we have been mates for more than just this lifetime . Jewel and my memories return after you marked each other ‘ he says with a rather smug look on his stupid face . My attention is drawn back to my mate as another force of power slams into me . Shit i need to wake her up but I can't get close enou
Lilith pov Lenny had called earlier to say that the prince’s Beta would be coming to pick me up to go shopping with her and the princess .I was so shocked and confused then a little impressed by the fact the princess got Len to go shopping . I think I will like this princess . She had sounded so happy when she told me she had accepted the prince as her mate, and her powers had awoken but she was nervous as she had no idea how to work them . The fact she had told me I wasn't funny when I burst out laughing at the description of her mate being thrown into the wall . I told her to relax, we can work it out or go to the coven for help , that seemed to calm my best friend . I knew my confession to her that actually I have lied about who I am to her is eating me up . I was busy putting the items of clothing Lenny had asked for in a bag when the door went . Shouting coming as I ran down the stairs I pulled open the door to the most beautiful man I had ever seen . As soon as the door o
Leonor pov I am all over the place with my emotions , Orion says he understands and will take it at my pace . I know he's made for me but I can't help that voice in my head . I have mentally schooled myself to be strong , I can't help it with my childhood . Two weeks after my mother had died was the first time my father hurt me, as a five year old who couldn't understand why my mummy wasn't here anymore . I watched as my father grew into a monster after that . I very rarely saw anyone unless it was necessary , my father told everyone i couldn't cope with seeing people . The pack saw him as a doting father , that was so far from the truth . As a child I would pray that the moon goddess would save me and she would hear my prayers . I guess in a way she did , she gave me Jewel early . Once I became a teenager I had started to try to avoid confrontation with him . The last time I saw the man who they called my father was after the worst beating that resulted in me being left for dea
Lilith pov SItting looking at the body of Sasha I can feel the rage starting to build within me . This was a declaration of war . If someone's want for power is so great it has them taking innocent lives . Sasha was eighteen, she had only just started her training. She had lost her mother to cancer a few years ago. She lived in one of the rooms in the common house. She was a pleasant young girl, always happy to help. Yet as I stare at the haunted expression, the fear on her face. I feel like I have failed her, not only her but all these women. They look to me for guidance but seriously i have no fucking idea what to do, how to go forward. I can feel Haggens anger coming down the mate bond not only anger but fear for me. He is here for me and I know he needs to go back soon but his duty to the pack and his love for me is tearing him in two. The darker side of me is sitting just under the surface wanting to rip this whole world apart. I know I can't, I know I have a duty of care to
Zara povThat little bitch wants to think she can look down on me , she has no idea of my power . Who does she think she is ? and my darling sister just allows her to talk to me as she wants. Well, they have no idea what I am capable of and who I know . Leaving her office with Telia on my heels, I was so furious I didn't see the girl walking towards me with a basket full of what looked like herbs until we collided . “Watch what you are doing you stupid girl” I growled at her as she landed on the ground . “Sorry I was on my way to see the priestess,” she stutters . The Priestess , the fucking Priestess is this what she has been asked to be called . I do not think so. I think to myself as the girl gathers the content of the basket that had spilled out over . As I watch her scrambling around picking it up from the ground my temper spikes and I step on the girl's hand . As I step harder I hear the bones break as she squeals , Telia looks around with wide eyes. “Mama , what if someon
Lilith pov I hardly slept. The spirits are not happy and unfortunately since i took the job it's me they let know of their displeased moods . The minute I took the position I was bound by their rules , except only those who have been or are a high priestess will know we are forbidden to talk about our bounds and the rules we are bound by . This is something Zara will never understand , the powers I now hold are vast and extremely draining on your own reserve . Telia isn't strong enough and there is too much darkness in Zara for her to be given the responsibility , the spirits would never allow it . I have been trying to work through some paperwork to do with one of the other covens when my office door was opened and in waltzed Zara and Telia. “Ah Lilith , you are here” Zara says as she makes herself at home in my office . “Yes I am here in my own office” I say back dripping it in sarcasm . “Now now little LIl remember your manners when talking to someone older” She says, narrowi
Lilith pov My patience is wearing thin with this bitch , being now bound by the laws of our goddess means I can't just get rid of her . Sometimes I wonder what the point is in dealing with this shit , no wonder my Grandma looked exhausted when I was a child . What no one understands is the laws I need to uphold and stand by . It's not quite as easy as just taking the title like most think it is , I am bound and that alone is tiring . Haggens anger at her outbreak of threats and he is justified in so but honestly i just want to sleep and get lost in my mate . Standing from the table I thank Almara for my soup , give her a kiss on the cheek and go to my Grandma “I am going to have a nap , i am exhausted” She cups my cheek in her warm hand , looking at me with her green eyes much the same as mine . There are a lot of emotions floating in her eyes , the strongest being concern . I know she feels guilty for bringing Zara and Telia's wrath upon me . I place my hand over hers enjoying
Lilith pov A week is never enough but at least Haggen will be with me for a week or so . I can feel myself dragging my feet as we pack the car to leave saying goodbye was harder this time now the twins have arrived . I wish to spend some time with Len and Fallon , sometimes a girl just needs her sisters . Unfortunately last night I had a call from Almara to let me know that Zara and Telia had been openly trying to recruit supporters from my own coven as soon as I left . That means they must have been informed I had left , so that is a whole other issue . I am already fed up with my position. I would quite happily give it up but my Grandma has had her heart set on me guiding the covens into a united front . As our car leaves the packlands my heart hardens as I need to get myself back into the role I hate the most . “Hey baby , are you ok ?” Haggen asks as he leans over and squeezes my leg . Drawing me out my thoughts , taking a big sigh, I turn to him . “I have a bad feeling a
Lilith pov I hate that I had to leave again , especially since Len is pregnant but I need to work through the shit with the covens . The backlash since I became high priestess has gotten worse , in fact there is talk of them turning against me . If it was just me I wouldn't care but I have Haggen and the pack to worry about . Four covens I oversee , each coven has their own set of rules but they also have the rules of the higher power . I already know who is leading the unease against me , she feels she should have been given the position of high priestess instead of me . The truth is my Grandma has been training me for this since I was a child . She always said my powers were greater as a child than even hers . My mother passed away when I was child and I never knew my father. Grandma always said he was worthless and never deserved me . Being brought up by the most powerful witch in our region was something most witches would love . Our coven is the northern coven where I gr
[Epilogue part 2] 9 years later Alpha Prince Saint pov My head is banging as I sit and listen to my father lecture me on drinking too much . He wouldn’t understand even if I tried to explain to him , my parents' relationship is the strongest I have ever seen . Rubbing my temple , I have been drowning out his consistent talking until her name was mentioned . Bellatrix , the only female i have ever loved , but i fucked it up . Six months ago I broke her heart and every day I have hated myself for it . I can't remember how or why it happened , I have never ever looked at another female ever . For some reason I ended up so drunk I can't even remember getting back to the packhouse, never mind the female who was lying naked next to me . Six months I have tried to piece together that night but the only thing that ever is there is the look on Bellatrix’s face the morning she stood in the doorway to my room with coffee in hand like she did every other morning . The look on her beauti
[EPILOGUE PART 1] King Orion pov 10 years later It’s the annual summer festival and we always have a family picnic with our ever growing families . The twins are now eleven and we also have a five year old son who is honestly a riot , Belenus never stops .

Leonor pov We are all waiting outside the delivery room for the birth of the future Gamma to happen , it's been almost two hours . I have never seen Lex looking so stressed out, poor guy . I have just finished checking on the twins when the first screeches of a new life entering this world reach our ears . Lex bursts through the door looking rather dishevelled and flushed “ It’s a boy , we have a son .” We all cheer before he goes back in the room to his mate and son . I feel Orion’s big strong arms wrap around me from behind , he kisses my temple . “ Well, it looks like Saint now has his Gamma .” Orion says with a proud look on his face . After another half hour we are allowed in to visit Fallon and her new baby son . Fallon as always is sitting up looking like she hasn't just given birth , the look of pure love on her face as she gazes at her new pup . Lex is sitting beside her , a protective arm around his little family . What was the best part was seeing Lilith being trul
