Chapter Sixty-seven. The box.Ivanna's POV"No, sweetie. My body aches," I said, finding it hard to sit."Really?" He whispered sultrily. Was he trying to seduce me again? No way. I won't fall for it."Please, Ace. That's enough.""Hmm. Your body seems to agree with me, though. So telling me to stop makes you such a naughty liar, darling."Was this man a beast? He kept me awake all night, and he still wasn't satisfied."You want me, Ivanna?" he said with a cocky smile."Maybe I do, but I have no energy left in me. Can you let me be for now? Please?" I tried standing, but it was a struggle."Alright, dear. As you wish." But instead of letting me be, he began kissing my body. I shivered, and a moan escaped me when he licked the spot he marked me."Ace, wait. Please stop," I moaned."You're asking me to stop," he groaned, folding my boobs and teasing my honey hole. "But your body wants me. Your nipples are begging me for more.""I'm exhausted, please. I need to rest. Please, mate.""Alri

I want to pleasure you until you cum all over my chest.""Urhh... Ivanna," he moaned passionately and grabbed my hair. I began sucking him and playing with his balls. "Ahh, gosh, I love this." His husky voice turned me on.I sucked him at a faster pace. Every bit of his moan felt like music in my ears. He clenched my hair tighter as I deep-throated him."Ivanna! Oh, fuck!"He took control, fucking my mouth with so much force and moaning even louder. He deep-throated me and pulled out with a grunt.But it was already a bit too late, because his cum already rolled down my throat. He released the remaining on my chest and I licked
Chapter Sixty-Nine. Mother is sickIvanna's Pov.Knock! Knock! We heard someone knock on the door. Ace stood to go check who it was. A maid came in and bowed. She was the queen's maid. "Greetings, My King,""What's wrong, Lucy? Why are you here?" Ace quizzed her."My King." She bowed again, hesitating to say anything more. "Lift your head and answer my question. What is going on?" "It's the senior queen, my king," she replied."My Mother? What about her?""She's sick, My King," the maid confessed with a sob. "She's terribly sick."What? I got out of the bed in shock. "Have you informed the pack's doctor?""Yes, we already called him. I just thought I should tell you, My King.""Thank you, Lucy." Ace's face was filled with panic.

Locked Up. Kate’s POV. “I tried to convince her that I had nothing to do with the king, but she wouldn’t believe me. She attacked me. She nearly killed me, Lars.” I cried, falling into his ever open arms. “Is that why you’re so sad and broken?” He whispered, patting my back softly. He was a perfect fool to use for my plan. Blessed heaven. Hail, Artemis, for mating me with this fool! My puppet! I can’t wait to use him in my quest to destroy Ivanna. I can’t wait to see her dead and gone. The best part is that she won’t be missed. I’ll be more than willing to take over her mate and her position. “Yes. She branded me as a whore even after I told her that I had a mate. You’re my mate, Lars. And no matter how much we fight; it doesn’t mean that I deny our bond in public. Because deep down, I’m grateful to Artemis for blessing me with someone like you who’s kind, genuine, and understanding.” He grinned sheepishly.

Better!“I’ll forgive you this time, but don’t ever do that again,” I uttered, waving my hand. She stood, still lowering her eyes. “What do you want to say that made you run in like that? What could be so urgent?”“My lady. You are yet to know that the king ordered that the queen be locked up.”“Oh, my goddess. Why?” I asked, pretending not to have any idea what was going on. “What was her offense?”“She was caught having an affair,”“What the heck?!” I screamed.“Are you okay, my lady?” Clara asked, giving me a concerned look.“Yes, I’m okay. I was just too shocked, Clara. She had an affair? Is it just a rumor, or was she cau

And then I ended up in bed with the stranger.Ace wasn’t even giving me the benefit of the doubt. He chose to believe what he saw.“You should think deeply, Ivanna,” my wolf said. “We need to explain everything to our mate.”“But he isn’t ready to listen to me, Moon. He called me all sorts of names. He believed what he saw over what I told him.” I cried bitterly. “How could he?”“This isn’t the time
Chapter Seventy-four: King Ace. I'm your king.Ace's POVWhy? Why did she do that? My heart was racing in my chest. Am I not good enough for her? Did I wrong her? Why did she choose to cheat on me? Of all people. She cheated on me with my guard. Seeing her in another man's embrace was maddening. It felt like many daggers were piercing into my heart all at once. My anger was blinding, my eyes were blazing red, and my breath came out in short, enraged puffs. I balled my fists as I began pacing across the length of the room. I wanted to kill him on the spot."My king." My beta slightly tipped his head, ensuring to keep a good distance between us. He knew I was in a foul mood, and he didn't want to infuriate me even more. "I don't believe everything that happened," he said. He was standing beside me. "There must be someone manipulating everything. I don't think the queen could cheat on you.""You think so?" I questioned, unable to hide the tinge of excitement in my voice. I wanted it to b
Epilogue.Ivanna POVI woke up staring at my mate, who was peacefully sleeping beside me. It had been months since I got pregnant, and mother had been taking good care of me. She kept bringing healthy soups for me. I gently stood up and walked into the bathroom. Oh my! I’m sore all over my body. My core aches. I sat in the bathtub, turned on the water, and began bathing. I lingered in the bath for a long time, appreciating what it had to offer me.“Ivanna, are you in there?” I heard Ace's voice.“Yes, is something the matter, Ace?” I inquired.“Ah! No. I was only worried when I woke up, and I didn’t find you beside me,” he uttered. “Are you okay in there?”“Yes, I’m good,” I replied. “I will be out soon.”“Okay," he replied.After I was satisfied, I stood up and picked up the towel. I wrapped it around my body before heading out.“Ivanna,” Ace called.“What is wrong?” he asked. "Are you sure you are okay? You took so long in there.”“I’m okay, honey.” I removed the towel and started d
Test result.Ivan.“Here are the results of the queen’s tests,” he said, handing Ace the result.“What!” he screamed. “Are you sure about this?”“What did you read? Ace, what is it?” I asked. “Why are you so shocked? What did you see?”He began kissing me all over my face. “Hey, will you stop all this? Don’t you know we were not alone?”Ace continued licking and kissing me in front of everyone, as if I hadn’t said a word.“Are you a dog? Why are you licking me?” I gasped.“Thank you so much, my queen,” he stated.“Why are you thanking me?” I asked. “Let go of me first.”“Ivanna, we will become parents,” he blurted out. “I’m so happy.”“I know that. Is that why you are happy?”“Yes,” he confessed. “I can’t wait to meet them!”“To meet them? Who?” I muttered. “Are you talking about the baby?”“Not baby, my love. They are babies. We have more than a child.” His eyes shone with excitement.“What!” I screamed. “What are you talking about?”“Take a look at this." Ace handed me the test resu
Mother’s Joy.“You don’t have to work, honey. Just sit and watch as I do all the work,” Ace said.Ever since I got pregnant, Ace has been doing all the work. He hardly let me step out.“I will be going to mother’s quarter today, Love,” I stated.‘To do what?” He questioned.“Nothing. I just don’t want to sit all day and do nothing.”“I will stay beside you. You don’t have to stress yourself, darling. I will be right here when you need me.”“You need to go to work. Everything is suffocating me. I need to go for a walk, please. I will stress myself out.”He looked at me, shaking his head. What the hell is going on in that brain?“Ivanna, why don’t you want me to keep you company? Why are you trying to push me away from you and the baby?”“Easy love. I beg of you. Try to understand me.”After going back and forth, he finally gave in.“Walk slowly, love. I don’t want to see you fall,” he uttered. Gosh, is this what Jenny is passing through with her mate? Ace is treating me like a child.“
This chapter contains a sex scene. Skip if you are not interested in reading.Ivanna's POVI thought Ace was joking when he said he wasn't done with me until he got down from the bed and walked to the bedside drawer. The sound of foil tearing filled the room, and he was back on the bed before I knew it. "Turn around," he commanded, and I rolled over and lay down on my stomach. He crawled behind me and grabbed my hip, pushing it up in the air."I want to fuck you from behind, and I want to hear you scream my name," he said. He pushed down my lower back until I was arching for him.I took in a deep shuddering breath while he took his sweet little time rubbing his massive cock against the slick folds of my cunt. He knows how much that drives me crazy and how it makes me ache and beg for him. "Please..." I pleaded. I wanted him to stop teasing me and fuck me at the same time, but Ace wasn't done yet.His hand snaked around my throat and held me still against the bedsheet. Without any warn

Is my queen sick?I groaned and sat on my bed.“My king, are you alright?” He asked again.“David, why are you here?" I asked. "Is something wrong with the queen?”He laughed. “What is funny, David?” I looked around the room. “Where am I? Where is my mate?”“My king, the queen is fine.

Killed her.Ivanna's POVI woke up with a throbbing headache. My eyelids were heavy. I tried to open my eyes, but I couldn’t. What the heck is going on! Why do I feel this way?“Ivanna,” I heard someone's voice. It was faint. “Please, wake up.”Is someone calling me? Was that my name? “Ivanna,” I heard the voice again.I slowly opened my eyes.“Thank goodness you are awake. How are you feeling?”My head was hurting. It hurts like hell.“Ahha,” I screamed out. The pain was too much for me to bare. I easily let my wolf take control of my body.“Are you okay, child?” A familiar voice asked me. I looked up and peered at the worried face of Ace’s mother. Why am I still alive? Why am I not dead?“Don’t touch me,” Moon growled at her. “Where is he? Where is my mate?”“I want you to calm down, Ivanna,” she said.She turned around and smirked. “I’m different from the native Ivanna. I will ask you again: Where is my mate?

CureIvanna's stance.“You are back?" she asked. "So soon?” Mother asked me as soon as I walked inside. I stood beside David, who was attending to my mate.“Yes, mother. I finished them all,” I answered.“So fast?" she inquired. "You didn’t disappoint me, child.” She held my hand, her eyes blinking with joy. “Thank you for protecting the kingdom.”“You don’t have to thank me, mother. It is my duty to protect and guard my people,” I replied. I turned around and faced the healer. “Tell me, have you found a cure?”“Yes, my queen,” he said with a bow.“You don’t have to do this," I stated. "This wasn’t the time for all this. Tell me, what should I do to find the cure, please?”He stared at me before sighing. Is this really serious? Is my mate really going to die?“My queen, the king needs a blood heart to survive," he let out.“What! What the heck are you talking about?” mother screamed. “What kind of method is that?”“Mother, we have to listen to him first,” I uttered. “Tell me, David, w
