Chapter 19: Talon's POV I was studying the reports from the villages regarding the rogue attacks wondering what Desmond could want from us. I know he wanted power but hadn't he done enough harm? The door to my study suddenly opened and without raising my head, I knew who it was. "I will have to ban you from barging in on me like that!" I hissed. "Ban me and you will have no beta left to run your kingdom," Greg replied as he dropped onto the chair opposite my table. His tone spelled stress and frustration —and these were two words that were never associated with Greg. I raised my head to his face and truly, I found a deep scowl on it. My bet was that he fought with Willow. "What happened this time?" I asked wearily. Having to deal with my mate and my best friend had to be the hardest thing I had to deal with —if I wasn't counting my sister's fight with Willow as well. Unfortunately, I couldn't send Greg to a foreign school as I did with Emily. As he said, I needed him to run t
Chapter 20: Avalyn's POV Today was the sixth day. My heart was racing and my head was planning on blacking out. I have been having the feeling since yesterday. I expected him to come last night but he didn't. Even the strange red-eyed werewolf didn't come ever since that first night. Was he avoiding me? It was crazy because I should be happy he wasn't coming to claim me but somehow, I knew that the sooner it came, the sooner he got it over with. I sat at the corner of my large bed with a copy of a novel I had picked up from the library when my door cracked a tiny bit and Dawn popped her head inside. "Hey!" She whispered for the first time. Whenever she came to visit, she would begin yelling my name from the staircase. I guess they got the message that today was going to be the day I got defiled and possibly impregnated. "Hey," I replied with a fake smile. She let her tongue kiss her teeth as she invited herself inside. She came to sit by my side and held my hand. "Look, I kno
Chapter 21: Avalyn's POV As the maids helped with my bath, my mind went numb. There was a constant ringing as my body fought off the panic but it was no use. It was happening today —the beginning of my death. "Ma'am, we need you to step out of the bathtub now," One of the maids said. Her voice echoed through the space and it took me about ten seconds to stare back at her and take in her words. I slowly got up and she wrapped a towel around me. She held my hand like a little child and led me to the room. The first thing I noticed was the sheets. They had been changed to a crisp white one with matching pillow covers as well. The only splash of color was the signature pink throw pillows that sat at the top of the pile. Even the floor was swept clean and I couldn't help but wonder if the king was going to mate with me on the floor as well... "Please spread your arms," Another said and like a scarecrow, I stood there diving in and out of consciousness as they applied oil onto my sk
Chapter 22: Talon's POV I pulled out of her and lay on the bed to catch my breath. I felt weak and drained just in that first round —something that had never happened before even with Willow. 'Avalyn...' my wolf whispered her name and I felt my cock twitch. I rolled my eyes, refusing to let the pressure build. She was a virgin. She must still be very sore from all the stretching. I should probably let her be. "I am bleeding!" I heard her whimper from beside me. I turned at once and saw her bloodied hands raised to her face. I got up at once and picked her up. She shrieked and held onto my neck with her hands. I led her to the bathroom and placed her in the bathtub. I brought down the shower head and washed her up as gently as I could. Her skin was so delicate, I feared I would hurt her if I was rough. Her cheeks were tainted with a permanent red color as I washed her up without saying a word. What was I even supposed to say? She was my Breeder, I knew I should be feeling the e
Chapter 23: Avalyn's POV I sat on the bed and stared blankly into space. A thousand emotions swirled within me yet none stayed long enough for me to grasp them. I took a deep breath and started from the very beginning. At first, I was scared. Then, I was happy. I enjoyed everything he did. My fingers subconsciously went to my lips. I could still feel him suck mine. I could still feel the hot air leaving his nose... I even forgot how wrong it was and then the bubble tore open the moment I told him I could manage on my own. "Why did you have to say that Avalyn!" I groaned, falling back into the bed. Why didn't I just let him carry me back to the room? Suddenly the more rational part of my brain resumed and I sat up. What was wrong with me? I shouldn't be thinking of things like this. The king has his wife and I am only here to help them make a baby. I shouldn't get too attached so that when the time came, it wouldn't hurt too much. I was about to fall back onto the bed when a so
Chapter 24: Talon's POV I was buried in the paperwork on my table when the door to my study burst open and Greg popped his head inside. "The councilwoman Elizabeth is here," he said. My eyes went to the clock above his head and confirmed that it was indeed afternoon. I have spent a long time studying. I packed up the reports and got on my feet. "I hope she doesn't anger me anymore today. I have had enough of her," I mumbled as I moved out of the room. "She seems remorseful enough to me. She regrets her actions. I am sure she wouldn't try something silly," Greg assured me as we started heading to the throne room. "Did any of her sons receive injuries?" I asked, remembering that I instructed her sons to join Walter at the war front. Greg stared at me from the corners of his eyes and I could see the smile he was trying to hide. I know that he was happy about my decision to send the young boys to war but it was the only thing I could do to teach her a lesson other than killing her i
Chapter 25: Talon's POV I walked aimlessly around the castle. Fueling my anger with each thought that came to my mind. How dare she? My angered legs led me to my chambers. Willow wasn't there and somehow this increased my anger. Where was she? She should have been in our chamber waiting for me! "Ah!" I roared, throwing a punch into the wall in frustration. I didn't even know why I was directing my anger at the thoughts of Willow. She did nothing wrong to me. She had tried to bear me a child but each time, she had miscarriages. Was something wrong with me? Because it made no sense why my mate would constantly get pregnant and keep losing the babies! Why was the goddess doing this to me?! Why was she letting my enemies insult me so openly because of children?! I know it was important to have an heir but did I have to force nature?! "Damn it!" I roared, trashing the lamp on the bedside table. Maybe there was something wrong with me! Come to think of it, Sara had never checked me
Chapter 26: Avalyn's POV I thought he had been angry with me especially after he caught Dawn and me in the garden. But as his fingers moved in and out of me, my brain melted. Nothing else made sense other than the immeasurable pleasure I was feeling from the ministration he was giving to me. If this was punishment. I wanted to be punished like this every day. "Ah!" I cried out as his thrust became sharper and faster. My heavy eyes tried to stay open but I failed. "You want to play games don't you?" I heard him whisper and I blinked hard trying to understand what he meant. I know I heard him say something at one point but I was too deep into the sensation for my brain to register whatever it was he said. I could barely keep my eyes open —how could my brain work? He pulled out his fingers from within me and brought them to his mouth. An electric shock passed through my body as I watched him suck his fingers, which were dripping with my juice. My core was still throbbing despite t
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
