POV: Tamara Davis
Looking at the vast arena where they were asked to go for the next round of the competition to become the next Regina, she already had this tiny little clue of what would happen next.
It was nearly sunset, and she just hoped for the best and prayed to the moon that her instincts were wrong. Because the truth was, she was so anxious about the idea that it kept on bugging her mind. She wasn’t fully healed yet, and if her intuition was right, there was a huge chance that she might end up losing at this battle – hopefully not.
Because if that happened, it would surely break her apart. Given the time, effort, and the support that their pack members offered – not to mention the Vikesh Family – just to be in this competition, she would certainly be in disdain.
Apart from that, her very own goal to avenge her parents’ death would be in futile. And her, seeking the truth about who the heck had sabotaged her, wouldn’t get re

The King's Mate 33: The Final Three
Chapter 33 POV: Tamara Davis Everything seemed surreal. She could hear mumbling and sounds, but she couldn’t open her eyes. No matter how she tried to open them, it was as if a huge sack was over her eyelids. She was numb to everything – even to her own body – that all it wanted was to rest. “How could they be so cruel? They have the power to stop the battle, but have they waited for this to happen?” She could hear Shahara’s voice laced with so much fury. “Shhh… Tone down your voice, Shahara. Tamara was resting.” A voice from Kage hushed her down, but she just heard her scoffed. “I couldn’t believe they would resort to doing this.” Doc Dreyson seriously commented and heaved a deep sigh. The mumbling sound just went on and she didn’t have the strength to understand it any further. Her entire system was crashing down with pain and all it wanted was for her to rest. Even her inner wolf was just so exhausted and weak. “I just hoped
The King's Mate 34: The King's Trial
Chapter 34 POV: King Hades Pierce “What happened to the traitors?” His voice was deep and menacing as he asked his second in command standing in front of him. Arlan swallowed hard. Surely, the king seemed so calm while his eyes were glued towards the huge glass window, while his face was rested on the back of his hand, in which his elbow was placed firmly on the arm rest of his golden chair. But his dark aura was saying otherwise. It was screaming of massive danger that was making him tremble with a bit of fear, too. “They were already being stripped off their t-titles by now, My King.” Arlan politely replied – distress was slightly visible in his voice. “But they are pleading to just move out of the pack. Alpha Lineus claimed that he couldn’t live with dignity now. With that, he is asking for your grace, My King.” He seriously added. The king’s brow shot upwards as an ominous smirk appeared on his lips. His dark aura –
The King's Mate 35: When Past Unfolded
Chapter 35 POV: Tamara Davis She was already healed, and kicking with strength, yet Shahara was so determined in guarding her like a mother to her child. She wanted to put her palm in front of her face and shook her head at the mere thought of it. And she wouldn’t want her to wander around and preferred for her to rest in the meantime. Even though she had already told her that she was already fine, she wouldn’t budge. She couldn’t believe this was happening to her. Maybe, she was just so worried about what happened to her, but this boredom was already killing her. Staying for another minute in her room might have suffocate her to death, and of course that was such an exaggeration on her part – almost but not quite enough to stick her butt into it for a matter of minute more. She was already done reading a lot of books from the library – courtesy of Shahara, herself – and she was already on the edge of madness if not for it. But still t
The King's Mate 36: A Glimpse of the Past
Chapter 36 POV: Tamara Davis The splashing of waterfalls filled her ears, but the vast cloudy fog made it difficult for her to see her way. ~ Where am I? ~ Tamara thought as her eyes moved around the place. It was so dark, and the thick fog wasn’t helping her at all. It was making her head pound a little bit painful inside. “Hello?” She loudly called, but her sweet voice just echoed throughout the whole place. Her heart was beating so loudly inside her chest – like it was all suffocating her entire system. “Is anybody here? Hello?!” She called once again – but like the first time, it just echoed like she was in the middle of nowhere. Chill started to run to her veins that made her feel the goosebumps in her skin. Her eyes moistened as if she’d been attacked by pure panic and nervousness. Her legs started to wobble, and she let out a breathy sigh to stop herself from shaking.
The King's Mate 37: Sacred Emissary
Chapter 37 POV: Tamara Davis She was waiting for Shahara to speak the words that might hunt her forever. She was hopeful that all of this wasn’t true, yet devastated at the same time, for she knew that it was the reality which she needed to face. Shahara swallowed hard as she let out a defeated sigh. She knew that no matter how she evaded this thing from happening, but she also knew that it would eventually come out. And it would have been for the better if it came from her instead. “I really didn’t know what to say or how to explain it. This thing that you need to know can really make you whole or break you mercilessly into pieces, Tamara.” She softly spoke. There’re more to her voice that she didn’t know how to address, but she just knew one thing – and that was to know the truth, regardless of how painful it was. All that she could think of right now was to know the truth about her. Maybe, crossing the bridge when she got there was

The rogues’ tongue was cut. How could they even talk?” Her husband mercilessly stated, and a conceited smile escaped on his lips.Lamina derisively grinned as her eyes moved towards her two children who were just staring and listening to their conversation quietly.Especially to Leah, who she promised to be with the K

It has its own phase, and it must go through it until it finally serves its purpose. No matter how dark the night was during the new moon, it would be more fulfilling to see the full moon, finally gracing its luminescence in the dark night sky. Tamara only wanted to discover her identity, her real roots – who was she? However, fate had a different plan for her – showing her what she was destined to be. “Mom! Thanatos is making annoying antics again!” Her daughter, Styx, pouted as she grumpily sat on the single couch in the library before she crossed her arms. Her forehead creased as she was about to answer her when the door suddenly burst wide open, and Thanatos entered the room with his grim expression. He gave his twin sister a warning glare, but he didn’t say a word. Seven years had passed but until now, she still couldn’t believe that she had been given
The King's Mate Epilogue
POV: King Hades Pierce “I heard that you had mistreated your Sacred Emissary… again.” Hades made a serious remark to his brother, who was lost in his books. However, seeing how Raven was affected by the mere mention of that particular word, he smirked inwardly. “Shut it off, Hades.” Raven darkly told him. Irritation was filled by his voice. “Oh, so cold. After giving her some azaleas, huh?” He playfully commented, as he couldn’t hide his smirk anymore. Raven just clenched his jaw as he put his book on his lap and stared at him grimly. “Whatever.” He stated darkly before the corner of his lips rose, this time giving him a mocking smile. “Anyway, how about you, then? You have your own, right? The mark had been revealed. I can’t believe that the Lunar Pack is getting this huge responsibility.” Raven suddenly remarked. His forehead instantly creased, but he couldn’t stop the excitement that suddenly embraced him. Yes. The Sacred Emissaries came from the Lunar Pack, and he had no
The King's Mate 101: Sacrifice
Chapter 101 POV: Queen Tamara Pierce Tamara could hear voices from the people around her. However, because of her throbbing head – she stayed with her eyes closed until the voices became clearer this time. “I am sure she will go berserk later on once she gains consciousness.” She heard a cold voice – but she could distinguish a bit of worry in her voice. She might be guessing that it was Shanaia who said that. “We have no other choice but to do this to her. The King requested this thing, and I have no other choice but to follow.” She heard another woman’s voice – which she presumed was Tamika’s this time. ‘What the heck is happening?!’ She screamed in her mind, but she kept her mouth shut as she was trying to remember what happened to her prior to this. She suddenly remembered that she was talking to Hades and before he walked away from her, she had already lost her consciousness. “But-” Shanaia was about to say something when she abruptly stopped as Tamika let out a breathy si

Hades was about to go when she held his hand.Worry was etched into her face – making Hades look at her with his gentle and loving gaze. Her eyes welled up. She knew that her concern for him right now was over the moon – especially as she saw how powerful Cessair was, now that he had turned into his lycan form.The liquid that he had drunk was making him more powerful, and she was scared of Hades. He still hadn’t fully recovered, and he still needed to face this.Hades held her cheeks in his softest way possible – as if he were holding something fragile.

The King's Mate 99: Defeat
Chapter 99 POV: Queen Tamara Pierce She opened her eyes as she felt a hand caress her hair, and she turned to face Hades, who only gave her a small and weak smile. “Hades!” She abruptly cried as she gave him a tight hug. Hades slightly grunted and she quickly removed her embrace. Her eyes widened when she realized how clumsy she was! “Oh! I’m sorry… I just… I…” Her eyes welled up as she looked at Hades gently caressing her cheek. She bit her lower lip as her tears fell and she firmly closed her eyes. Her hormones were truly making her more sensitive and emotional. However, she couldn’t stop herself from getting too emotional because Hades was now awake. She was so worried about him. “Shhh…” He soothed her as his thumb wiped her tears away. She opened her eyes and stared lovingly at him. “I thought I will l-lose you. I am s-so scared.” She finally admitted her vulnerability. Hades swallowed hard as he slightly shook his head. “You will never lose me, wife. I will do whatever
The King's Mate 98: Broken Legacy
Chapter 98 POV: Lamina Darkwood Being shocked was an understatement. She was certainly astounded as to its deeper sense. She couldn’t believe that she was hearing everything about it. “Just like your father. I am very proud of you, Cessair, and I bet your father would have been very proud of you. You are as manipulative and as sly as he is.” Elder Courdamus cynically commented. “He should have said that to me. He should still be here with us. If not for Lamina’s father! That Lomero is truly much more cunning and treacherous.” His voice became so dangerous and firm. She pursed her lips together at the mere mention of her father’s name. Her heart was clenching inside her so hard that it was making it hard for her to breath. “Good thing that you ended his life. His daughter had compensated for everything that he should be doing for us. Lamina’s wrath towards the Royal Blood because of her blinded and unrequited love for the late King Reeve and for her thoughts that they had killed
The King's Mate 97: Hidden Agreement
Chapter 97 POV: Queen Tamara Pierce She couldn’t stop herself from being grateful to Shanaia and Tamika. She didn’t know them deeply, but they had been helping them with all their might, and like what she told them – their debts were now piling up. Hades was now soundly sleeping inside their master bedroom – and she was improving thanks to Tamika's assistance. She thought all of them were doomed because of what happened to Hades. She couldn’t believe that they had a plan for it. Hopefully, Hades will be waking up soon. “So, what have you done to my brother?” Raven’s voice inquired as his eyes darted to Shanaia, who seemed unbothered by his piercing eyes. His forehead creased as to how Raven said those words – as if he was suspicious or something. He seemed to be pushing Shanaia to speak up for the truth. ‘What the heck is wrong with him?’ Tamara mentally thought. “Tamika gave that to me, just in case. We all know that you’ve done something to the elixir during our surprise att

She could smell danger and pure ferocity surrounding her.“What do you want now, Lamina?” Her stern voice resonated in the four corners of the room.She was glad that her tone wasn’t shaken at all – it was firm and full of resolve.The cruel woman – in her wolf form – just let out a low, eerie growl, as if it was telling her to shut up.But Tamara just wanted to end this peacefully – well, she might say that she was hoping that way.Lamina turned into her human form as she got some of bed sheet to cover her nakedness. She let out a vicious smirk. Her eyes were cold and unreadable.“Finally, I have come face to face with you, Tamara – oh, my bad.

The King's Mate 95: Dancing In Flames

He was walking back and forth in the Throne Room since Tamika had told him to stay out of their room so she could tend Tamara.Shanaia had become their guard, and she was watching the front door.He was about to go back when Raven entered the room. He had bullets of sweat on his forehead and was breathing heavily with a worried expression pasted on his face.His forehead instantly creased.“C-Can’t you feel that?” He asked – full of unadulterated concern in his tone of voice.“Feel what?” He asked, bewildered.Because of too much worrying for Tamara – he was certainly out of focus.But then, he suddenly felt an intensifying aura slowly creeping in near the palace.
