Chapter 5: Talon's POV
As I looked at the girl from a distance and my wolf chose her. She wasn't perfect but she would do.I had caught her scent earlier that evening as I made my run around the open fields of the castle. It was so strong that I couldn't ignore it.
I reached the human town and watched from behind the trees as she walked with a box in her hand.
She felt my gaze upon her and I watched as she foolishly ran off.
"Humans..." I scoffed. They were so stupid most of the time.
If I really wanted to take her at that very moment, she couldn't stop me. Not her run and even her willpower. They were all the same puppets and completely helpless.
I suddenly felt rage build up in my core and at that moment I was overwhelmed with desire. I didn't know where it came from, but I decided it was going to feel amazing fucking her pathetic little body.
I calmly traced her scent to the house she had gotten into. From my position in the tree line, I saw her cower into the wall and a feeble man kicked at her.
I corked my head and found it strange. She wasn't running off, and neither was she calling for help. She just sat there and let the man beat her up.
At that moment, I started doubting my wolf. How could it pick something so weak and helpless? She couldn't even help herself through her pathetic situation. How could she bare me, children?!
It was a hard gamble to play it and if anything went run, my wolf was solemnly the only one I would blame here.
The girl felt my presence again and she caught my eyes but I had seen enough. Since my wolf wanted her, it was only better I took her before her parents broke her.
I turned back as fast as lightning and returned to my castle.
The gates were heavily guarded but every warrior and beyond knew my wolf like the back of their hand, they wouldn't dare stop me.
I passed through them and ignored the way they bowed in fear —not necessarily respect.
Rather than go to my chambers, I turned to go find someone else, Greg.
I transformed into my human form and walked through the paved path up till I got to his office. Knowing Greg, he was working late.
I pounded my fist against the door once, and it opened immediately.
"Talon?!" Greg asked in surprise. "Seeing you twice in one day when there isn't a national emergency isn't a very good sign. What's up?"
I pushed past him and walked into the office. I pulled the visitor's chair and lowered myself into it.
"When is the exchange day with the humans?" I asked disregarding his comment.
Greg was shocked at my question because he of all people knew how much that day disgusted me. If it was up to me, all the humans would have been dead by now. They were no good to themselves!
"Talon, is there a problem?"
"I found a breeder and I want you to go retrieve her for me as soon as possible. Her parents don't seem to like her a lot so the transaction shouldn't be a problem. I want her in this castle by tomorrow." I ordered.
Greg slowly walked to his seat and picked up a paper. "If you are certain her parents won't be a problem, I don't think we need to push for the exchange day. I can go to them first thing in the morning and propose the bargain," He proposed.
He wrote something on the paper in front of him and passed it to me.
"What's her name? Description and all of that..." He stated pointing to the paper.
I rolled my eyes and pushed the paper back to him. "I don't know her name. But the house is the fifth in a row when you access the town from the fields. It's the only brown-roofed house in the area," I said and got up.
I was still stark naked and my cock still needed attention. I had to go meet Willow.
"Okay, consider it done," Greg replied and scribbled the address into the paper himself.
As I got to the door, I paused and turned back around. "She has green eyes and dark long hair... You'd know it's her when you find her," I said before exiting his office.
Taking the direction of the garden, I walked slowly and took my time to take in the scents of the freshly grown flowers.
Tomorrow was the council meeting and for their own sakes, I hoped no one mentioned anything about Willow's inability to birth me a child for I was going to kill the first person who uttered it.
I took the stairs and moved swiftly to my chambers. As soon as I got to the corridor, Willow's scent in our room increased the desire I had gotten from staring at that human girl.
I didn't know if I should tell her that I found a girl for some reason, I felt it would be best I kept that information until Greg brought the girl.
I pushed the door open and Willow's beautiful green eyes met mine.
"Where have you been Talon?" She got out of bed and walked toward me in that elegant air of hers.
I closed the door behind me and just stood there waiting for her to reach me.
Her simmering dress flowed behind her, making her look like a goddess under the moonlight that sipped in through the large windows in the room.
"You smell of humans my love." Her beautiful face pinched into a frown as she reached across my bare chest. "What happened?"
I held her hand and brought them to my lips. I kissed her knuckles and gave her a small grin.
"Nothing happened my love. I just went for a run..." I whispered.
Her brows were still furrowed as she studied my body like she might miss something.
"The council meeting is tomorrow. Are you perhaps worried about that?" She looked up into my face with those alluring eyes of hers and my rage immediately wiped off.
I would move mountains for Willow if that was what it took to protect her.
"I am the Lycan King. I don't have to bother about anyone's opinion," I said as I placed more kisses on her knuckles. "I told you earlier, that whoever dares to say a word against you will die first before they finished whatever they had planned." My eyes sparkled as my wolf accepted my declaration. I wasn't going to seat in that throne room and listen to cowardly men talk about my mate with disrespect.
Willow gave me one of her priceless smiles and she raised herself to her toes and pressed a kiss on my lips. Then she moved her lips to my ears. "You should take a shower, there is something I want to show you," She said.
My cock twitched in response and I kissed the side of her head. "Is that all you want?" I groaned.
She took a step back and hugged herself. "I'll be waiting," She drawled and walked back to the large bed, watching me.
I could take her right there and then, but I didn't want her to be uncomfortable while I penetrated deep and hard into her.
I swiftly got to the bathroom and took the fastest shower I had ever done in my life. I made sure to use her favorite soap as I scrubbed over the sweat on my body. When I finished, I returned to the bedroom with a towel on my waist and my eyes narrowed as I found her beautiful figure completely naked waiting for me.
Her legs were spread apart and she had two of her fingers buried deep inside her soft folds. Her nipples were round and firm as she stared back at me.
"You are cheating," I growled as I joined her on the bed.
"Am I?" She moaned pulling her lips into her mouth.
My hands brushed against her left breast and she smiled up at me with those beautiful green eyes.
"What was it you wanted to show me? I am here now..." I pushed her hand deeper into her core and she swallowed down the cries that threatened to escape her lips.
Her legs spread even wider giving me an amazing show.
She corked her head to the side and I watched as her beautiful long hair flowed to one side of her shoulders. "How long can you watch me pleasure myself?" She whispered as she continued touching herself.
I hissed, pulling her hand out of her all of a sudden. "Zero seconds! Why would I watch you pleasure yourself when I was here... What do I gain if not to please you, my love?"
She let her tongue wipe seductively over her lips as she watched me. "Hmm, turn around," She said and I frowned.
"What?"
"Turn around my king," She repeated, changing the wheels of control in my head.
Her voice was so sexy and demanding, I couldn't resist.
I was usually the one leading, but tonight, I let her take the reigns. I slowly turned around and waited patiently for her to do her thing.
"Lay on your stomach and raise your ass for me, my king," She added and I gave her a questioning stare.
"Really?"
"Yes, my king... Just give it to me... Please," she added and I felt my wolf almost surface in anticipation.
My cock was already dripping juices and the longer I waited the harder it was becoming for me to let her control tonight.
I did as she said and waited. She didn't begin right away. She waited for my patience to run out before she made me move.
I felt her hot lips around my thick cock but from behind. The sensation hit differently at once.
"Hmmm, Talon... You taste so good..." Her sweet voice hung in the air, pulling me into a bubble that only she could create.
Even in my next life, Willow was always going to be my mate because she sure knew how to make me happy.
Chapter 6: Avalyn's POV The next morning, I was up before any of my parents did. I wanted to make up for the trouble I caused them the previous day. It was my father's birthday and I really didn't want to make them angry on a day like that. But it happened and there was nothing I could do except take the beating and clean myself up afterward. This morning, I planned to right the wrongs I made yesterday. I walked to the kitchen and started the coffee pot. Father always loved his coffee black first thing in the morning. My stepmother preferred her caramel. As the water started boiling, I scrubbed and cleaned all the pots and pans, I used the previous day. I couldn't remember when they ate but I found enough dishes on the sink to show that they did have some sort of feast without me. When I finished, I took a tray and placed two coffee mugs on it. I poured out the beverage into the mugs and stirred it to their specification. Satisfied with the way it looked, I took it up the stairs
Chapter 7: Avalyn's POV This time, I didn't just feel the vibration of his growl deep in my stomach, my heart rammed in my chest as my blood pumped five times faster. He wasn't human. I could tell that now. The aura eluding his being brought nothing but fear. I trembled like an abandoned leaf as my eyes slowly went up to peep at him. The early morning sun made it difficult for me to see him clearly at such an angle and I couldn't tell if I was grateful for this or not. My father greedily went over the bags and started going through the coins. The sound of the metal pieces kissing one another echoed in the room. On a good day, it could have been classified as a calming sound but at that point, it felt horrible. It felt like a death machine —my death machine. "You can have her!" My stepmother chirped pushing me towards the towering man. The push was so sudden that I lose my balance as I wavered toward him. He held me by the arm and his grey eyes lowered to meet mine. The world wen
Chapter 8: Talon's POV "The plants are getting infected at a rapid rate, I think we are cursed!" Thomas said in a loud voice that irritated my ears. "The plants shouldn't be our focus right now, the southern tribe has been complaining of rogue attacks!" The army commander hissed, glaring at Thomas. "Oh, that isn't even important! The humans are starting to rebel! Something needs to be done about them as well!" David, who was in charge of the human-werewolf relationship said. We were having a council meeting and I sat there glaring at each of them as they placed their problems forward. Usually, I would listen to each point and we will discuss it before moving to the next point but today, they forgot their manners in their houses as everyone wanted to be louder than the last person that spoke. Every one of them wanted the problem in their jurisdiction to be treated more urgently than the last person's issues. My eyes narrowed into slits as their voices only grew with each passing
Chapter 9: Talon's POV I closed my eyes enjoying the feel of her wet folds around my cock but Sully's stupid words played back into my head and for the first time since I got mated to Willow, I wondered why we were never able to make a baby. Was I not fucking her right? I grabbed her waist and started hitting harder than before. She grabbed the sheets and her eyes rolled as the pleasure hit her differently. "Yesss... More... Faster!" She moaned meeting each of my thrusts with one of hers. I shook my head trying to push the thoughts away but they refused to go away. Willow couldn't have any issues. Maybe I was the one with an issue... "Yesss... Oh, Talon! Yes!" She screamed enjoying the hard strokes I was giving her. I flipped her over so that her ass was in the air. She positioned herself perfectly, and my thick cock rammed into her from the back. I grabbed her breast and allow its softness to help clear my mind but it was to no avail. It was no longer lovemaking, we were just
Chapter 10: Avalyn's POV The cars parked in the large driveway of the castle. The first thing I saw as I looked out the window was a tall man carrying another who had blood dripping out of his eyes. The angle at which the head leaned to told me that the man was long dead. My stomach churned and I felt like gagging. I was right when I thought this place was my tomb. It was indeed going to be my beautiful tomb. "We are here!" Dawn chipped. She was excited but I couldn't bring myself to even plaster a fake smile on my face. There was death awaiting me out there and she expected me to be excited about it? I wanted to stay in that car forever. It was the only thing keeping me from the cruel hands of death. From the look of things, I knew that my death wasn't going to be a pleasant and calm one. It was going to be gruesome. The towering man stepped out first and tapped on Dawn's side of the window. She rolled it down and turned her head to him. "Take her to Sara, I need to see the al
Chapter 11: Avalyn's POV Sara and Dawn scurried out of the room, leaving me to face my doom in the hands of the beautifully evil woman. She moved with such grace my mouth was left open as I watched her take slow steps to the bed. Then ever so calmly, she lowered herself onto the bed. She brought her hands to her lap and then slightly turned her head to look at me. Every moment she made was done with such poise, I knew at once that she must have been royalty. "What's your name?" Her smooth voice whispered. I opened my mouth to respond but no words left my lips. My throat suddenly felt dry and I quickly gulped down my saliva. Then I tried to speak again. "I— I am Avalyn Howard," I stuttered. She corked her head to the side and then ever so slowly, she brought her hand to my hair. I flinched but I dared not move away from her touch. I sat there frozen in place like I was glued to the bed and watched her next move with hawk eyes. She let her well-manicured fingers run gently thro
Chapter 12: Avalyn's POV My heart resumed beating suddenly. Each pump caused an ache in my chest as her words replayed in my head. "By mate... Do you mean sex? I have to have sex with him?" My voice broke at the end and I hoped she would give a negative answer. I prayed to all the deities that existed in the world at least this once, I hoped they listened to me. I wished that the term mating in their world meant something entirely different. My stepmother had always accused me of sleeping around in town but I had been preserving myself for the one man who would truly love me. Out of all the misfortune that befell me, that was the one thing I thought truly belonged to me. I thought no one would take that away from me. My tears resumed falling down my cheeks as my heart thumped so loud in my chest, it was the only sound I heard. I kept my eyes fixed on Sara waiting for her to open her lips and tell me that I was being silly. I wished she could tell me that their king couldn't poss
Chapter 13: Avalyn's POV Half an hour after Sara left me in the ward, I got tired of just sitting on the bed. I got down and walked to the window. That was when I noticed the small hospital gown I now had on. I didn't remember wearing them before I slept off. Sara must have changed them. I ignored the piece of clothes and approached the window. I pulled the curtain and looked out to the world outside. There were cars and horses parked in the field outside in different sections that made the place look like an organized circus where there was a designated space for vehicles and the animals that came to entertain people. My eyes went further and I could see the peak of the castle from where I was and a small smile sat on my face. The first time I saw it, I thought it was going to be the beautiful place where I died. How ironic because I was really going to die there... I would move there today, just as Mr. Greg had said. And then five days later, the King was going to come for
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
