Chapter 51: Violet's POVI marched down the corridor to Hilda's quarters where I knew Emily would be. As soon as I left the King's wing, I was met with a lot of slaves still moving through and I wondered why exactly they had to move them from there.As I got to her door, I knocked once and then pushed the door open.There were about four people in the room with her, including her mate, and the moment I stepped in they all raised their heads from whatever they were looking at and I realized I must have interrupted something."I am sorry... I can just come back," I said and moved to open the door once again but her voice stopped me."No Violet, come here. We will be rounding up soon," she said with firm eyes.She motioned for me to sit on one of the chairs and she continued their hushed conversations."They will be coming through the big gates..." I heard one of the men blurt aloud."I don't fucking care about where they will be coming. Just make sure we have enough men securing the fu
Chapter 52:Axel's POVEmily had managed to gather all Alphas and Beta who still wished to remain under my command in the mansion for an emergency meeting.As everyone gave their opinions on what they felt was the right approach to end this new revolution, there was only one thing on my mind and that was how I was going to end Fergus for daring to backstab me.He couldn't even have picked someone random. Not even one of the humans he hated so much, he decided to take Hilda."We need to call for a dialogue. It will be less bloody," Beta Moses said. He had a small pack just beyond the new capital and everyone knew how much of a coward he was."Are you afraid of spilling blood, Beta Moses?" Aaliyah sneered her stern gaze fixed on him.Murmurs erupted from the men and women on the table and I could see Aunt Emily preparing to stir even more drama."You do not wish for a blood bath after what we have been through!" His shaky voice boomed above the murmurs in the small gathering."The last
Chapter 53: Violet's POVI had almost gone mad when I saw his office empty but Emily had rolled her eyes and walked to a room farther from his office, we found him, sitting in a corner trying to treat himself but he was completely pale from the pain.The horror on my face was enough for Emily to understand and she had helped me move him to the clinic.I was sitting in the ward in a corner as I watched Sky cry over him. The doctor had been very kind and he helped him. He told us that we just had to give him time to recuperate and he would be as good as new.There was truly nothing to worry about but Sky was very theatrical, she had screamed the roof off when she got here and she had refused to stop crying since. It was almost as if Sam was dead when he was only sleeping.I tried to console her but I decided it was best, she made peace with her mind.Noises filled the corridor and I turned to watch what was going on from the window when I saw guards moving with someone. I thought it mu
Chapter 54:Axel's POVHer reply darkened the already dark soul I had and my wolf pushed to the surface. Before she could realise what was happening, I lifted her off the ground and threw her over my shoulders."What the hell are you doing? Put me down!" She yelled but my wolf wasn't listening. She had already pushed me to the edge.I ignored her protests and took her to my chambers. The moment we got inside, I locked the door and dropped her unceremoniously to the bed.Then I started pulling out my belt."Axel... Axel... What are you doing?" She stuttered as she pushed further into the bed.Rather than respond to her, I continued taking off my clothes till I was completely naked, then I crawled into the bed where she was.I pulled her legs and she let out a gasp as she tried to get away."Axel... We are supposed to talk about this..." She said in a shaky voice.I paused and stared at her. "I want you right now," I growled.But she took advantage of my hesitation and ran off the bed.
Chapter 55:Violet's POVAs soon as Axel left the room, I got up and moved to his wardrobe to pick out a shirt and track pants.There was no way I was going to stay in here when I had investigations to do as well.I changed into the new clothes and packed my hair up on my head then slipped out of the room. Luckily for me, Emily wasn't lurking around the corridors and most of the guards were out in the field, securing the premises or training for the impending war.I took the opportunity and I made my way to the dungeon as fast as I could without attracting attention to myself.As I got to the entrance, I was about to get in when a deep voice stopped me."Excuse me, where are you going?" The voice said.I tightened my fists in irritation. Why was he even here when everyone else was out trying to protect their land? I thought of attacking him in this direction but there was no way I could get what I wanted in the end, I had to play nice.So I took a deep breath to calm my nerves and I
Chapter 56:Violet's POVMy eyes moved between all three of them as I tried to see a crack in their demeanour. Yet, I found none.They truly meant it.After everything they have been through they were still hellbent on killing Axel. I could not believe them.My hands trembled as rage built within the pits of my stomach. I turned to my father who was clutching the bars of their cell expectantly waiting for my response."I can't believe you, Dad..." I whispered, shaking my head. "You have been locked up for so long and you still haven't learned your lesson?""Do not speak like a child Violet. You are a woman now. Think about the opportunity this will bring to you and us... All you have to do is poison the little brat and the widow will take it from there," he said with his eyes sparkling with excitement.As I saw the emotions in his eyes, I felt disgusted at myself for having him as a parent."How can you not understand that this crazy woman is trying to trap you?" I spat out, unable t
Chapter 57:Violet's POV "I don't know who she is..." I said, shaking my head. "All I know is that she came from the west coast and Axel had kept her as a prisoner ever since," I told her.Emily watched my every move as I spoke and I couldn't blame her. She probably didn't trust a single word that left my lips and I wouldn't blame her for I would have done the same if I were in her shoes.I couldn't trust myself."She has been wanting to work with you or make you a part of her team, yet, you don't know her fucking name?" She blurted out her eyes narrowing.I spread my arms on my side and shrugged; "They call her the widow and that's all I know," I retorted with as much sincerity as I could muster."The widow... What sort of weird shit is that?" Her face pulled into a frown and she stared hard at me.Once again, I shrugged; "that's what they call her. I don't know..."Her eyes left my body and she stared into space for a few seconds before she got off the bed and started pacing. Her
Chapter 58:Axel's POVI was working on the last of the papers on my desk, eager to finish with it so I could go back to Violet.There were so many emotions between us that I needed to understand. It only made sense when she was in my arms. Now that we were apart, thinking about it only increased the desire in my wolf. It wanted her every second of the day even though our union wasn't something I should be wanting. I couldn't help it.I tried denying it when I found her in that market. I tried fighting it when I brought her here but the moment I got a taste of her sweet body, I knew it was too late to stop the feelings.But there was just so much going on, I couldn't stop for a second to define what exactly it was.My kingdom was under attack. Some of my men thought I was not being hard enough on the human slaves. They were forgetting that my mother was one of them. She was human and the least I could do to honour her memory was to be fair to her kind —at least to those who deserved
Chapter 100:Violet’s POVAsher took me back to the Forgotten Lands. He showed me photos and videos of my parents. He gave me the family I had been craving for. I had it all except, my heart.I couldn’t help but feel like a piece of me was missing.“Do you think he will be fine by now?” I asked Asher as we sat looking over the setting sun while he held my baby —whom I secretly named Blade, after Axel’s missing sibling.I could feel Asher’s eyes on me, but I tried to keep a straight face. “It’s been two weeks since we left Axel’s lands, but you don’t miss a day without enquiring after him,” Asher pointed out and I felt my cheeks heat up instantly.“No, it’s nothing like that. I am just asking.” I tried to fix my sentence but even I knew that my defenses were only making it worse.Asher kept staring at me with that boyish face he always gave when he caught me, and I knew that lying would be pointless.I let out a sigh and closed my eyes. “I have really tried hating him. Forgetting him.
Chapter 99:Axel’s POVMy heart tore into multiple layers by Asher’s question. My eyes turned red as emotions curled through me. I opened my mouth to speak but words failed me. I turned to Violet, but she had her eyes fixed on her cousin. I wished I had protected our bond so that I could communicate with her at this moment.For the first time in my life, I felt stupid, dumb, and useless. I had no answer in my head to give that could be the right one.On one side, I wanted to tell him to fuck off and that Violet was never a slave here but not even my wicked conscience would let me say that out loud. I had been too cruel to Violet. Being a slave did not begin to define how far below I had downgraded her.On the other end, he was her cousin and probably the only legal family. I had to seek his fucking blessing and not be harsh. Yet I didn’t know how to begin. There was this large lump in my throat that reminded me of my sins and assured me that Violet would never forgive me —not after w
Chapter 98:Violet’s POV“This is even prettier than I remember it!” Skylar screeched as she helped me arrange my clothes in the drawers.“We are going to need baby clothes. The crochet tops you made, wouldn’t be enough. We will have to tell the king—” Hilda started to say but I quickly refused it.“No, Hilda. I don’t want his help.”“But he is your mate. Your husband,” she pointed out, but I shook my head refusing her words. “He isn’t my mate and much more my husband. He is just the man that fathered my baby,” I whispered. My eyes moved to where my baby lay in a beautiful crib. How Scarlett got everything made in such a short time was surprising. She was truly an angel.I was suddenly pulled out of my thoughts as I felt a warm hand rest on my shoulders. I moved my eyes off my child and traced the source of the hand to find it belonged to Hilda.“We all know that Axel did you wrong, but you can’t deny the fact that you love him—”“Before loving him, she had herself to fucking love,”
Chapter 97:Axel’s POVAunt Emily led me back to my room where I had left Violet and the baby —our baby. My heart doubted that Violet would ever forgive me after everything I did to her, but Aunt Emily was optimistic. She held my arm like a little child and as we got to the door, she knocked first before clicking it open.My heart was in my stomach as I held my breath, too scared to breathe as her broken face came into view but to my dismay, the bed was empty —and cleaned. There was no one except Scarlett glaring back at me.One look at her and I knew that she was already aware of the situation. Shame washed over me, and my eyes lowered to the ground.“Scarlett,” Aunt Emily called as she moved towards her. She embraced her and placed a perk on her cheek. “How are you?”“I am fine, Aunt Emily,” she whispered in that gentle voice of hers, but I could feel her eyes on me as she spoke, and I dared not raise mine to meet hers.“Where is Violet, did you meet her here?” Aunt Emily asked her
Chapter 96:Violet’s POVMy lower abdomen was killing me with pain. It kept shooting through me, weakening my legs to the point I could barely feel them anymore.Tears filled my eyes as I thought about what happened. The tears weren’t from the pain, it was from my heart.Even now, I couldn’t hate Axel. I wanted him still and this broke me. How could I enjoy what he did to me? How could I have moaned in between the pain when my little child was just a couple of meters away?What sort of mother was I?I couldn’t tell how long I was curled up on the bed, but it was long enough for me to realize that I had made a mistake birthing the child. I shouldn’t have allowed him to live because now, he was going to suffer for a crime he knew nothing about.Axel was going to hate and punish him constantly because he would see him as a bastard. And me?I would remain a sex slave for the rest of my life while he had his life with his new bride, Scarlett. Was this the kind of life I wanted my baby to h
Chapter 95:Axel’s POVI kept going all through the night, thrusting deep until I became intoxicated by her soft folds. I didn’t stop even when she started bleeding. I didn’t stop when she cried out, begging me to stop; not even when my wolf started clawing at me.This was both revenge and torture for her crimes. She had let someone else touch the body I craved. The same body I was ready to honor in every way possible. I cherished her and gave her everything, but she threw all that away and let some fool touch her.The pain in my heart spread and I felt tears dancing in my eyes. Violet had turned me into a mess. I was a ticking time bomb of chaotic emotions.I couldn’t even tell how I felt or what I wanted. One time, I enjoyed hurting her and the next it tore me apart. The moment she broke my heart and shattered my trust, everything exploded within me.Violet made a fool out of me. She stole my heart and placed me in a position where my love for her could not be erased. My body coul
Chapter 94:Axel’s POVThe darkness and anger in my soul shifted the second the news about Violet got to me. I didn’t even care about Aunt Emily. I knew she could handle herself and besides, she was still at loggerheads with me, and seeing her would only intensify my anger.But Violet, I could finally vent out my anger on her tight little pussy.“Good,” I declared getting to my feet. “Prepare her and bring her to my chambers tonight. She has been off duties for too long.”“Axel, have you lost your mind?” Greg yelled the second the words left my lips.My claws pushed out of my fingers, and I pointed them at him, baring my teeth as I breathed through my mouth with a rage that could match a hundred people.“I do not want to hear a word from you, Greg. You have done enough damage for one day and for your sake I hope Scarlett doesn’t get hurt by your decisions because if she does, I swear on my father’s name, I will forget the relationship we share, and I will end your life!” I roared befo
Chapter 93:Axel’s POVNathan was just like his father. A very annoying specie of wolf that enjoyed pissing me off more than they valued their lives. I told him to ignore Violet’s fake cries, but he chose to ignore me instead.“Fuck!” I cursed as I matched down to my office with a frown on my face.I would deal with him later, right now, I would have to solve whatever issues Asher has brought with him.I was making a bend to my office when Greg’s voice stopped me, “Where are you going? Asher is over here,” he said, and I changed direction to that of the throne room.When I got there, Asher was already seated with two of his men by his side. There was a box on the table in front of him and as soon as I stepped in, he snapped his hand to the man standing by his right and the latter quickly rushed to open the box.“King Axela, I present to you… Willow’s head,” he said with a wide grin on his face.The turbulent emotions I was feeling due to Violet got triggered by the nickname he had ref
Chapter 92:Violet’s POVThe pain I felt was great but the fear of losing my child as the pain shot through my body was greater as it moved like a boiling lava through my brain, causing my entire system to become on edge.“No… no, not my baby.” I sang like a mantra as my trembling hands reached to check if my baby bump was still intact.Tears pooled in my eyes as my fingers retracted at the pain that splashed through me at the action. My head started shaking and I resumed my mantra as I realized that something was wrong with my baby.My trembling hands went to the ground, and I tried to pull myself off the ground, but a sharp pain filled me so deep, I couldn’t help it. I tried to swallow the scream, but I couldn’t.“Argh!” I cried out. “I can’t feel my baby…” Tears spilled down my cheeks and my vision became blurry as I struggled through the pain.Then I felt it. The first contraction.I was only five months gone; I couldn’t be having contractions. “No… this can’t happen now. Help… so
