Zira’s POVIpulled my dress a little bit more, staring at my stunning reflection in themirror. Despitethe many things that had happened in the last few days, It was finally here.The day I was going to get married to my mate. Ilooked down at my left hand; the diamond ring that Ronan had gotten for meyesterday shone brightly on my index finger, and for a moment, I fell even moredeeply in love with him. It hadbarely been a month, but my whole life had started to revolve around him in themost beautiful way possible. “I’m sohappy that it’s finally happening,” Sandra whispered beside me, as if afraidthat someone would overhear her. However, someone did, and Laura whirledaround, wearing the most severe look I’d ever seen on her face. “It’s notenough to have a successful wedding; there’s still so much more that canhappen,” Laura said, looking around to be sure there was no one as well. “Before,you were just Ronan’s mate. You had no significant obligation to the Kingdom ofE
Zira’s POVTherewas a lineup of more than ten luxury cars outside the palace gates, withseveral people standing around and staring. Mymouth hung open in awe. I have never seen anything this grand in my entirelife.Therewere also guards around each car, some in their Lycan form while others intheir human form and completely armed to the bones. It waseye-catching and extravagant. “Sandra, what’s going on?” I asked, struggling towrap my mind around this scene. It was completely outside my imagination. Toogrand for me to understand. “We aretaking you to your wedding; What is going through your mind, being dressed thisway?” Sandra teased, and all the girls giggled at her words. If Ihad no make-up, my face would have flushed red from the embarrassment. Iallowed them to lead me into one of the luxury cars in the middle, and manypeople on the city streets opposite the royal palace burst into cheers uponseeing us. “TheQueen!!!” “OurQueen!!!” Severalchants rang out unti
Ronan’s POVDressedin white, Zira had to be the most stunning bride there could ever be. From themoment she got down from the car, her scent filled my nostril, and it had takeneverything in me not to rush down there and pull her into my embrace. Everystep she took towards me filled me with excitement, and the moment she was infront of me, my wolf finally relaxed. Thepriestess from the monastery held open the box with our moon goddess’s carvinginside, allowing the sandalwood scent to mix with the open sea air. “AlphaRonan of the Royal Savage Pack, do you pledge to the goddess that you haveacknowledged her gift of a mate to you?” Her gaze, as sharp as a hawk’s, fixedon me, seeming to penetrate my very being. “Yes, Ihave.” “I haveaccepted the blessing of the moon goddess and marked Zira, daughter of theBeta, Blood Moon pack, as my mate,” I added right after as soon as I spottedthe look of dissatisfaction on the priestess’s face.Shenodded and then turned to Zira, makin
Zira’s POVMyheart leapt in my chest as I watched the middle-aged man striding towards us.Despite the guards blocking him, he had easily used his strength and wolfpressure to push them away. All myworries from the last few days felt like they were finally becoming a reality. “Uncle!”Ronan cried out in pleasant surprise beside me, and I looked at him, confirmingthat he was genuinely happy about the person coming. “Withme here, none of you is qualified to place the crown on his head,” the man saidwith a smile and then turned to look at me. His eyes were warm, and he noddedat me right after our eyes met. Otherthan me, most of the important people in the room seemed to know him as theyhanded him the royal scepter. Iwatched the entranced as item after item was handed over to him until the twomale servants were seen carrying just two boxes. The manwalked towards me, and with a command, the boxes were opened, revealing twocrowns that were of different sizes. The gold caug
Zira’s POVIgasped as I felt Ronan’s hands in between my thighs, tickling me as he movedhis hands upwards in a patient pattern.Afraidthat the driver would hear me, I used my hand to clasp my mouth shut while myother hand was holding onto his hand for support.A partof me wanted to tell him to stop, and then another part of me desperatelywanted him to do as he wanted because I wanted him just as much as he did.Just ashis fingers brushed my lips, Ronan pulled me away and embraced me.“It’sour wedding day; at the very least, we should get to the chambers beforeanything,” he whispered.Istruggled to nod; the lust swimming in my body made my mind hazy, and hard toprocess a lot of things.God! Iwas going to ruin my wedding dress with how wet I was.Notlike I needed it after now.Thankfully,the car stopped in front of the majestic palace some moments after, and I hadnever been so glad to be in front of this intimidating mansion like I was atthe moment.As ifhe had read my
Zira’s POV“Nomatter what happens tonight, don’t fret. I’m here,” Ronan said as he pulled myhair into a high bun. Worryfilled my heart as I looked at him through the mirror, “what’s wrong? Howserious is it?” “Was itbecause of what I did the other time?” I ask, referring to the women I hadassigned to the Royal guards. “I’lldefinitely tell you about it later tonight,” he assured me, leaning down tokiss me on the top of my head.” My mindwas whirling with several thoughts, and being unable to bear his burden worriedme. I wasextremely worried; I was too naive to believe they wouldn’t have the audacityto do anything after we married. Aftermaking sure my hair was secure in a nice bun, Ronan pulled me up and wrapped aloose but luxurious robe around me. Sincewe would be shifting soon, there was no need to dress elaborately. Moreover,the robe was made from the fur of our ancestors and was regarded as precious.Iwatched as he donned a similar robe, his face devoid of emoti
Ronan’s POVI could feel just how pumped everyone was about the ritual. Becoming king and being their Lycan king was two different things. Under the full moon, all Lycans are empowered by the moon goddess and even father had struggled to rise above others in that state. Everyone was in a state of power here and starting the ritual and getting the approval of the moon goddess was the only way to make everyone submit. Beside me, Zira took every step with caution. Even in her wolf form, her consciousness and worry still shone the brightest. How did I get so lucky?As soon as we stepped into the palace grounds, the whole place shook with loud howling into the night sky and stamping of foots to the ground. The energy from the moon goddess and moon was overwhelming and the only thing that kept me from doing the same was my bond with my wolf. As soon as we climbed on the small rock platform that my father used to stay all the time, I allowed myself to howl into the night sky. What hap
Zira’s POVRonan scoffed at the two men on the dark balcony with us. “With just the both of you?” His knee-bending pressure filled the room and by the trembling in their legs, I could see that they were struggling to deal with it. “H..how??” The other man muttered as he fell on his knees, unable to do anything as their guns fell from their hands. “Get out and tell the bastards that sent you that, I’m coming for them.” He said with a low growl that had shivers running down even my own spine. It was not hard to imagine what those men were facing as a putrid and strong stench filled the air. I scrunched my nose up, disgusted at the liquid that was now flowing from one of the trembling men. “Be a little more gentle, they are going to give the maids a lot more work to do now,” I told Ronan jokingly while he responded by pinching my sides. Ronan led me out by the waist as if the two of them weren’t there. “Are we just going to leave them here?” I asked, using the mind link. “The sha
RONAN’s POV"Zira ...I have said this before but I am so madly in love with you that sometimes, I just don't know what to do at all. I don't want to lose you. I want...I want to spend the rest of my life with you!" I told her. Zira smiled. She teared up a little but then laughed and shook her head. "I. I love you too, Ronan, more than you can ever imagine. I love you so much."My heart swelled. I had never felt this happy in my entire life. "You've just made me the happiest man in this life."Zira laughed, then leaned closer to me, staring at me straight in the eye and then at my lips. "Do you want a kid?" She asked with a sensual whisper.I smiled, but I was stunned by her words. "What?""A boy or a girl?" Zira whispered, biting down her lower lips as I tightened my grip on her waist."Both?" I asked, raising a brow."You sure?" Zira asked."Four?" I asked with wide eyes, and Zira burst into laughter."Are you being serious right now?" She asked."Well, you asked first, so yes," I
RONAN’s POVI ignored him and turned to Keith. "As for you, Keith, you are banished to Alva. You are never to leave there for the rest of your life, and if you do, I will kill you!". I said to Keith. Keith sneered at me. "Don't think that you won because you are the strongest Ronan! You only won because you hated our father and didn't let him affect your life!"Keith sneered at me."Yes! It's only because you stayed away from him! Otherwise, you would have ended up like this! You are no different from us!" Lucan told me. I shook my head at their reasoning. "You are right. I hated our father. And wanted nothing to do with him. But you see, I am not here just because I stayed away from me. I am here because I strived hard not to be like him. I hated that man and wanted nothing to do with him, and I made sure to make changes in my life. The rest of you just decided to take the wrong path! You deserve this!" I said.....It took me the entire day to deal with all of the remaining issues
RONAN’s POVI walked over to Miles, preparing to fight with him. I hated it when he said that I was not fit to be the Alpha and I wanted to prove to him and everyone else that it was a lie. "You don't have to do this, Ronan! He is just trying to rile you up on purpose! Don't fall for his trap! Miles already lost, but he doesn't want to admit that he has lost!" Zira called out to me. I knew that this could be a trap, but I am past the stage of caring at this point. I need to put him in his place. It was a long and hard fight between the both of us, and at some point, I thought that I was going to lose, but then I managed to knock Miles out. He tried to get him, but I pinned him to the ground, breaking one of his legs and then ending the fight with me as the winner. Miles glared hatefully at me, probably because he knew that he had lost. I am now the winner, and there is just nothing that he can do about that. I leaned in closer to him and whispered, "Do you now believe that I am
ZIRA’s POVMiles glared at Ronan, and I could tell that he was shocked and upset to see that Ronan was back. I was feeling a whole lot of emotions watching Ronan. I wanted to jump into his arms and hug him, I wanted to yell to everyone that doubted me that I wasn't wrong. I said that he was alive, and he really did come back alive. But I did not have the time to do any of this. Right now, there's a war in front of us. A war that we were starting to lose.A guard tried to attack me from behind, but I immediately turned and kicked him away from me. There were tears in my eyes as I fought out with the guard. I was happy and sad at the same time, and the tears just kept flowing. "Ronan, you should have just died! Everything was going perfectly fine! We had a good thing going on! Why did you have to come back?!" Miles yelled at Ronan. Ronan smirked as he approached him. "A good thing? Miles, you are just a thief who wants what doesn't belong to you. You were never supposed to sit on th
ZIRA’s POVMartha shook her head. "I didn't see it myself because I was too scared of going in," she said. "I think that we should give it a try, Kyle. We can never know," Peter said. Kyle sighed. "Fine. We are going to check. I just hope that it's there" Kyle said and the both of them left together."I just hope that they find it. We will be able to defeat Miles then," I said. Mom glared at me. "Can't you just leave this alone? Do you have to go this far?" She asked me. I nodded my head. "I have to go this far, Mom. I just can't ignore it. I can't ignore what he's done! He's controlling the Entire Kingdom! Everything in this Kingdom will be destroyed in just two years if we don't stop Miles now!" I said. I took a deep breath and tried to calm myself. "Mom, I trust that Kyle and Peter are going to find the spell. The spell is going to be broken soon, and there's going to be a war. I am not going to walk away from it. I just need to know if the both of you are going to help me!" I
ZIRA’s POVA spell that made it impossible for everyone to either shift or use their abilities! I laughed to myself. If Miles thought that this was going to stop me, then he had better think again. The good thing was, I knew this spell, and I knew how to break it. But first, I have to find my cousins and tell them about it. They need to know what is going on! .....I entered Maria's room and saw my mom pacing around the room. She glared at me as soon as I walked in. "I almost thought that you weren't going to come back! Why can't you just listen to me? No matter what I tell you, you have already told yourself that you're not going to listen no matter what! What is wrong with you?" She asked me. I wasn't in the mood to listen to her scoldings. "Do you know where Kyle and Peter are right now? I need to tell them something!" I said. I haven't seen him since they said they were going to take care of Antoine on their own. "Are you even listening to me? Miles could find you, and then
ZIRA’s POV"I am tired of falling about this Maria. I am not going to leave, and that's it!" I said. I was upset listening to her talk, so I walked out of the room. "Where do you think you're going, Zira? What did I tell you about staying away from Miles? Don't you listen to anything that I say at all?" She asked me. I pretended not to hear anything that she said and walked out. I know that I will have to see Miles and confront him myself at some point. I just can't keep running away from it. I have to face it. .....I was standing facing the palace's garden when I felt someone walking up to me. My heart was beating fast against my chest. I already knew who it was without turning back. It was as if I was waiting for this moment. "Who are you?" He asked. I turned to face Miles with a big smile on my face. "Are you surprised to see me?" I asked him. If my mom or Maria could see me right now, they are going to say that I am looking for death, but I know that I just can't ignore
ZIRA’s POVI turned to face my mom and frowned. No matter what they tell me, I am not going to believe that Ronan is dead. I know that he's not dead because I can still feel the mate bond between us. If I could not feel the pull, then I'd accept that he is indeed dead, but as for now, I can still feel as if he's alive, so there's no way that I am going to accept what they are telling me. "Are you even listening to me right now?! Zira! You have to leave! Miles is the one in charge now! He's not going to let you leave if he finds out that you are still alive! Are you sure that you want to take that chance?" My mother asked me. "Mom, I already told you. I am not going to leave. I have to at least wait for the full moon festival," I said. "Why do you have to wait for the full moon festival....don't tell me that you think he is still alive?! Zira! You need to stop being delusional! He's no longer alive! They killed him! Ronan is not coming back! I know that this is a lot for you to tak
ZIRA’s POVWe walked back into the city to realise that everything had changed. Antoine and his guards were still in my cousin's custody. My mother and I decided to go back to the palace to find out what had happened while we were away. Immediately we entered the palace, we went to look for Martha. She huffed me immediately when she saw me. "Zira! I thought I had lost you! I thought that I would never see you again! Thank you so much for coming back! Thank you!" She said to me, I hugged her back because I was happy to see her. "I thought that Antoine had won, but my mother and cousins showed up. I am just happy to be back!" I said excitedly. "I am just happy that you came back! The Kingdom...the Kingdom is not what it was when Ronan was alive. Everything.... everything has changed!" Martha said. "What has changed? I could feel as if the Kingdom was in trouble when I walked in. Everything was just quiet!" I said. Martha nodded her head. "Yes.. that is because it has changed. M
