Isabeau's POV

“You are a shame to this Pack and we'll pray that someone like you will never be born again."

"You're a curse to this world, Isabeau. You brought calamity on Stellan and you will do the same to everyone who ever dares to come close to you."

"Do you really think you can run away? You can't escape this fate, Isabeau. You've been marked for death. Your ending is set in stone, you can't escape it. Slowly but surely, the time draws nearer for you to free the world of your existence….."

My eyes snap open, and I gasp for air as I wake from the vivid and unsettling dream that cruelly plagued my mind. I feel a tap on my shoulder and flinch.

"Isa, are you alright? Is something wrong?" My mother asks, her voice dripping with concern.

I look from her to the three other women in the room and I instantly understand the situation.

"I'm fine, mum. I just had a nightmare." I speak monotonously, still trying to recover from the horrors of the night.

As everyone is trying to process the interruption, the Lycan King's voice booms across the room, demanding an immediate halt to the proceedings. “This wedding shall not continue," he declares, his voice echoing with authority.

Once we begin, there's no turning back."I nod, taking another deep breath, steadying myself. "I'm sure."And with those words, our fate is sealed, bound together by a pact that holds both promise and uncertainty. King Stellan smirks approvingly, he takes my small hand in his large ones, sending light tingles down my spine. "A wonderful choice, dearest," he says, his possessive tone surprising me. "Well then, It's time to let everyone know who you truly belong to."I try to tame the blush that rises to my cheeks at his words. I nod at him, and try to steady my nerves as we re-enter the hall where my mating ceremony was supposed to be taking place. The attendees are all gathered in groups and clusters, all gossiping about the drama they had just witnessed minutes ago.The room falls deadly silent as people notice our return. At the front right

"Isa doesn't know what she wants, and you're just letting her ruin her life!"As we enter the house, I find myself standing just out of sight, watching as Leo furiously confronts our parents.Ever since we left the hall she has completely ignored me and has chosen instead to do her absolute best to convince our parents to stop me from leaving with the King. What she doesn’t know is that I’m already way ahead of her in my plans. I already knew that my parents would definitely not have accepted the union if I had married just anyone. That was why I specifically put extra effort into making King Stellan marry me. Because everyone knows about his ruthless ways so no one— not even my parents or Alaric's parents will be dumb enough to go against him.My father, looking tired of Leo's constant complaints, responds calmly, "Sweetie, for the hundredth time, Isa is an adult and has m

    Stellan's POVI lower my voice into a dark and husky tone. “What makes you so sure that I wouldn’t devour you instead?”Her body goes stiff and she darts her eyes nervously.“B-because you’re not a bad person.” She intends it as a statement but it sounds like a question. Like she wants me to confirm my harmlessness to her.“Now whatever gave you that idea, sweetheart?” I shoot her a grin that does not reach my eyes.She shivers slightly at my words but quickly hides her fear. I see through her facade and snort in disbelief. She's brave, but there's no need for her to pretend to be unafraid around me.She's nothing like I've ever seen. Every new movement she makes captivates me. It's as if she has cast a spell on me, affecting me in a way that no other woman ever has.I have to remind myself sternly that any sort of romantic feelings are totally out of the question for us.

They are here to serve you with anything you desire. They will be at your beck and call 24/7," I explained to her, indicating the women with a nod. "Listen to me, all of you," I address the maids, my voice commanding as they bow their heads and listen attentively."This woman here is going to be my Queen so you must address her with the utmost respect. Treat her as you would me because the slightest mistake will not be forgiven." I warn."Yes, your Majesty." They all chorus, their heads still bowed."We've just arrived from a long and exhausting journey so I want you to attend to her accordingly. Bathe and dress her in an attire fit for the soon to be Queen of this kingdom." I order and they concur.Isabeau glances at the maids, a mix of surprise and hesitation evident in her eyes."Um….

At first, the throne room is filled with a loud impregnable silence as the men try to process the information I had just shared.As expected, Arlo is the first to break the silence as he chuckles nervously, like I had just made a joke."Surely, Your Majesty, you're just teasing us," Arlo says, trying to bring some amusement to the situation.

I couldn't get much sleep last night, I was only able to get some rest in the early hours of the morning.” He speaks lightly and the guilt from last night quickly comes reeling in.“I heard about the requirements for this challenge.

How was your night?” She asks in a singsong voice.I can’t stop the memories flooding into my mind so I end up with a blush before I reply, "It was very, very good. Thank you.”“Pardon me for saying this but you might want to take a look at your neck.” Lyric mouths and hands me a mirror.I take a look and a gasp escapes my mouth. Dark red hickeys have bloomed all over my neck and chest, some have even turned purple. Stellan did not relent. My face turns beet red with embarrassment. No one else can see me like this.“I can tell you had quite the adventurous night.” Lyric teases with a smile.“Don't. I'm already embarrassed enough as it is, you really can't breathe a word about this to anyone.”“I promise I won't. I'll even help you cover them with makeup. This competition is very crucial and we can't let anything set you in a bad light.”“That would be much

The cool breeze from the window stiffens my nipples and riddles my skin with goosebumps.I move closer and swiftly snatch the blanket, wrapping it around my body before finally returning my attention to him. The smug look on his face annoys me to no end.“You're such a pervert, you don't seem to know the first thing about privacy.” I berate, my annoyance seeping through my voice.His laugh crackles around the room like electricity while I try to school my expression in an attempt to disguise my unease. He's up to something, I can tell.“You know what, Isa dear? You might actually be sexier than Lilith with that lying mouth of yours and your oh so beautiful body which seems like it was only built to be fucked.” He titters, clearly amused.“Will you just stop?!

I briefly closed my eyes and tried to savor this moment of warmth and hope I shared with Isabeau. However, the moment was cruelly shattered as Aster's voice invaded my thoughts, sneering at my vulnerability."Oh please! Don’t tell me you’re that stupid Stellan. You should know that mere sugar coated words won't change the reality of who you are," He taunted. "The moment you made a contract with me, you completely forsook the light. Now you're nothing but a creature of darkness, deep rooted sin that's taken form. You should never forget that."I clenched my fists in anger, my patience vanishing along with the little peace of hope that I had allowed to bloom in my heart. “Just shut the hell up, demon!"
