Stunning 🔥🔥🔥

As I slipped into the dress, I couldn't shake the feeling that there was more going on than I knew. The fabric felt luxurious against my skin, and the fit was perfect, almost as if it had been tailored specifically for me.

Madame Mortica helped me with the finishing touches, pinning up my hair and applying a light touch of makeup. As I looked at myself in the mirror, I barely recognized the girl staring back. The dress transformed me, making me look older, more regal. But beneath the polished exterior, I felt the same confusion and unease as before.

“You look stunning,” Madame Mortica said, stepping back to admire her work. For once she actually gave me a compliment, and it actually felt like it was honest and coming from within “Now, let's go. We can't keep them waiting.”

I nodded, taking a deep breath as I followed her out of the room. The corridors of the mansion were dimly lit, the walls adorned with portraits of long-dead ancestors. The air was cool, carrying a fa

    Running out of time 🔥🔥🔥### Veronica's POVWhat in the world had just happened? Did Lucas and Simon just push me aside for that no-good slave? How was I rapidly losing both the war and the battle at the same time? These questions raced through my mind, a storm of anger and disbelief, as I made my way back upstairs to my bedroom. The moment Lucas left the living room with Ashley by his side, I watched their retreating figures, my heart sinking deeper with each step they took. Only when they were completely out of sight did it truly dawn on me that my world was crumbling.“I am running out of time. The mating season will be over soon, and they will have to choose their mate not too long afterward,” I muttered to myself, each word a painful reminder of my impending doom, as I slowly dragged my feet towards the stairs. “From the looks of things, I am definitely going to get sent back to my parents' house, and my long-time dream of being the Queen of this Kingdom is going to come crashi

    Sounds promising 🔥🔥🔥.**Veronica's POV**“So what do you think about Ashley?”“Who?”“Ashley, you know, the slave who's claiming rights over Lucas and Simon.”“Oh her. To be honest, my lady, I really do not like her one bit.” I sat up straight, my interest piqued by what Amara had to say.“Oh really? Tell me more,” I said, taking a small bite of the ice cream in my hand.“Well, right from the very first day she got here, she caused each and every one of us to get a surprising increase in duties. Alpha Lucas kept making it a point for her to be well taken care of. Not to mention the fact that she always felt so high and mighty, being so close and in the good books of his highness, Lucas. A while back, she got into a fight with Mira, and she nearly killed her.”“Oh my goodness, when did this happen? Was I in the house yet?”“No, my lady, you weren't here back then. It was such a crazy experience, and thankfully I wasn't involved in all the drama. I remember I was busy in the kitchen

    Their Touch 🔥🔥🔥Ashley~ I blushed, because the night had been so wonderful. There were Lycan Kings, distinguished guests, and, shockingly, Simon had introduced me to all of them without bringing up the fact that I was his mate or anything like that.Now Lucas was sitting next to me at the back of the car. No one said a single word, but the air was tense and chilly. Did I fail to add the way he was looking at me, like a guy on the edge of hunger? His gaze roamed over me, making me lose my composure. "What are you contemplating?" Lucas drew me in closer and asked. I literally stopped breathing, my chest rising and falling uncontrollably. What's the matter with me? I'm not a young child! GetWhat’s wrong with me? I’m not a kid! Get a hold of yourself.“Eyes on me!” His husky voice sent shivers down my spine. I swallowed hard, trying to steady my breath.Lucas leaned in, his breath hot against my ear, his hand sliding possessively around my waist. "You’ve been driving me crazy all n

    MANIPULATION 🔥🔥🔥Veronica~The pain in my body was intense. I couldn't believe that Simon and Lucas would take the bad guys to the party and leave me behind. It's really scary. I sat at the bar and let out my anger and frustration. Looking at my phone, I thought I should swallow my pride and call them, hoping they could ask me to stay."What's a pretty girl like you doing?" asked a loud voice. I turned around and saw a man sitting next to me. His unique eyes and beautiful tattoos caught my attention. I forced a smile and tried to be straight. He looked a lot like Simon, but darker and more mysterious."Why is a handsome man like you working alone?" I replied, and he laughed softly."I just wanted to take a break from work," he said. I took it quietly; it was strong, maybe too strong."Mmm... I had a problem with the guy. He chose a bad girl over me!" I laughed, and he laughed evilly.He testified: “The name is Tristan."I smiled and introduced myself. "Veronica," I whispered, feeli

    A TASTE OF HELL 🔥🔥🔥Simon—After cleaning myself in the bathroom, I snarled fiercely, remembering how I had let myself lose to Ashley. She simply had a way of toying with my thoughts. When I try to forget about her, things become more difficult. She's like something I want to tame, break, and fucking make obedient. She is mine, after all.“Where have you been all this while?” I asked as soon as Lucas walked in, beaming boyishly.“With Ashley… you won’t believe what I figured out—she’s actually allergic to cats!” He laughed as he sat on my bed. I scowled, feeling an upset and an inexplicable urge to cry out.“You spend more time with her than on pack business!” I finally blurted out, and Lucas gave me a sideways glance.“Is that true? I just thought maybe our mates needed some quality time. I actually love her!”“She will only be a good breeder. We can’t mate her, no matter how much we love her! Veronica’s there!”“Veronica isn’t our mate, Simon. I don’t mind if you reject her, but

    **Ashley**I was confused by Simon's behavior. One moment he seemed to want me, and the next, he appeared annoyed by my presence. What kind of person was he?The more I thought about it, the more my heart ached. I initially blamed Simon for the pain, but it only grew worse. I decided I needed rest to escape the discomfort. As night fell, I lay in bed, staring at the ceiling and counting the steps in my room to distract myself. I resolved to face whatever came next with courage and determination.“Ashley! ASHLEY!!” The loud call jolted me awake. The shouting shattered my sleep, and I frowned deeply at the disturbance.Madame Morticia burst into the room, her stern presence unmistakable even without words. Her silence was more unsettling than any noise. Unable to stay still, I sprang from the bed.“Good morning. I see you’ve gotten lazy about waking up early,” she said sharply but with a hint of warmth.“Leave me alone!” I groaned. Before I could say more, she tossed a pillow at me.“Ug

    SIMON~ It’s been weeks since I last laid eyes on Ashley. I’ve managed to keep my distance, despite my wolf’s relentless agitation. I’ve stayed in control, though it hasn’t been easy. Today, I saw her on the phone, chatting and laughing. I didn’t realize she had a phone, and it irked me to see her so cheerful while speaking to someone else. Aside from that annoyance, I was informed by a maid that an old acquaintance had dropped by. I decided to confront this unwelcome visitor. I flung open the door to find him lounging in my chair. The cheeky bastard spread his arms, as if expecting a hug. “In your dreams, asshole,” I snapped, striding across the room and shoving him off the chair. “Ouch! Damn it! You could’ve at least given me a heads-up,” he groaned, wincing in mock pain. “I assume you’ve been well, RD. What brings you to my pack?” I asked, settling into my chair. “Hello to you too, you prick. I just wanted to see my favorite brother,” he said, taking the seat across from me.

    LAID DOWN 🔥🔥🔥 SIMON~We entered the casino. Men were busy betting their assets, families, and as stupid as it may sound, their own lives. I wasn’t here for them. My eyes looked around in search of a particular someone, or should I say couple.At the center of another wing was my Bunny, sexy as always, stunning in her pretty dress, but amidst all that, sadness lurked inside her. Her eyes confirmed it. I took Veronica’s arm, locking it with mine. I led her towards the wing where my Bunny sat.It wasn’t time to make my presence known yet, so I sat around a corner, listening to them while taking my whiskey that Veronica had already ordered.“Guys, this is my soon-to-be girlfriend. Pretty, isn’t she? Meet the one and only Ashley!” That bastard Peter announced, his words hinting at something ominous.“Nice to meet you, Ash!” his three friends chorused. I might as well kill them all.“Yeah,” she replied, forcing a smile.“You’re lucky, Peter. She looks so beautiful!” one of his friends s

    The end of the tunnel !!!**Ashley's POV**As I stood by the side, watching my arch-nemesis being taken away, I honestly couldn’t tell what I was feeling at that point. Although this moment had been a highly anticipated one for me, it just didn’t feel right somehow. As soon as the guard announced that her banishment was to begin, I could feel my wolf’s countenance instantly change. I remained motionless where I stood, watching the whole thing unfold. Nobody moved until she was finally out of sight, with the men trailing behind her as she went on her way. I couldn’t shake the feeling I was getting, although a wave of relief washed over me. All this while, I had wanted her downfall—to see her get the punishment she truly deserved. But now that it had happened, I surprisingly didn’t feel as excited as I thought I’d be.“Are you feeling alright?” I heard Simon ask as he placed a hand on my shoulder, and I nodded.“Yeah, I… I just—”“It’s fine, you don’t have to say anything.

    Outplayed....**Veronica’s POV**Right after informing me of the success of the plan, Drago had actually requested that I come over to see things for myself, and as I drove to the arranged meeting point, I couldn’t contain the mix of emotions I felt. It was a strange blend of excitement, adrenaline, and anxiety. Drago had assured me everything had gone according to plan, but amidst the excitement, I couldn’t shake off the nagging feeling in the pit of my stomach. Something didn’t feel right.As I approached the hideout, my phone buzzed again. This time, it was a voice message from Drago.“Greetings, your Highness. I just wanted to let you know that these kids have been crying ever since they were brought here. I don't know what happened exactly, but when I went out to find something for them to eat, one of my men apparently shot one of them, and now he's dead. I'm really sorry, your Highness.” The moment the voice note ended, I had to slam on the brakes because the shock hit me harder

    Love and war !!!We made our way back to the mansion quietly, sneaking in before anyone noticed our absence. Even as we slipped back into our normal roles, something between us had changed—strengthened. There was a deeper understanding now, a silent promise that we would stand by each other no matter what came next.What came next was the reckoning we had been preparing for.Later that day, Simon and I gathered in his study with the sole aim of finalizing our next steps regarding Veronica. We knew time was running out. With Fabian already in our custody, Veronica was bound to make a move sooner rather than later. Her desperation would push her into action, and we needed to be ready.“She’s going to crack soon,” Simon said, his voice filled with certainty. “Especially now that we’ve got Fabian. There’s no way she can keep up this facade much longer.”I nodded in agreement. “We just need to keep the pressure on her. Fabian already gave us some leads—now it’s only a matter of time before

    The hatch **Lucas's POV**Right after the whole thing with Ashley presenting ample evidence against Veronica, although it was hard for us, Simon and I just had to keep to ourselves. Well, at least until we had finally achieved what we wanted, which was actually pretty close to our reach at that point. I never liked Veronica from the start, but this was something I could never see myself believing she committed. It now makes me wonder if she really was the one who killed Mortica as well.As I sat on my bed thinking about all these things, I could feel a knot forming in my head, and I ruffled my hair as I tried relieving myself of the headache. As it stands now, we currently have all the top perpetrators in our custody back at the torture house, and the one person we needed to find is that slimy Fabian. Just as I had mentioned to Ashley a while back, we needed to keep things on the low so that we would easily be able to use Veronica to get to him. After all, the reports we had been get

    Surprise, surprise!!!“Yes, yes, that’s right! She seemed very secretive about the whole thing, like she didn’t want anyone to know we’d left or where we went.”“I see,” I responded, finally removing my claws from his thigh. Lyon gasped in relief, but the moment Simon turned his glare toward him, he silenced himself.Simon and I exchanged a knowing look.“Are you thinking what I’m thinking?” Simon asked, his eyes narrowing with suspicion.“Bet,” I replied, a hint of realization dawning on me.Together, we turned our gazes back toward Lyon, who flinched in fear under our combined scrutiny.Simon crossed his arms, his jaw tightening as he addressed Lyon again. “You better hope for your sake that what you’ve said checks out. If we find out you’ve withheld anything, even the smallest detail, you’ll regret ever stepping foot in this mansion.”“I swear, Your Highness, that’s all I know! I told you everything!” Lyon pleaded, desperation evident in his voice.I took a step forward, looming ov

    Feel the heat....I stepped forward, towering over him. “You thought you could hide in the shadows, Fabian, but your time is up. We’ve heard everything.”His face paled, and he stammered, “I-I can explain! It wasn’t my idea—Veronica pushed me into this! I was just trying to survive!”“You’ll have plenty of time to explain,” I said coldly. “Take him away.”Fabian’s eyes darted to the exit, but before he could make any sudden moves, our men swiftly blocked the way. He was trapped. The fear in his eyes deepened as he realized there was no escape.Simon crossed his arms. “Let’s make this simple. You come quietly without receiving any beatings, or we drag you out of here with no less than 20 slaps already landed on you.”Fabian hesitated for a moment, but when he saw that resistance was futile, he slumped in defeat. “Fine,” he muttered. “I’ll go.”As we escorted him out of the building, Simon leaned over and whispered in my ear, “Now that we have him, it’s only a matter of time before Vero

    A little bit more....The next morning I woke up feeling extremely refreshed and light. For over 6 years I had been wrongly accused and tagged for committing crimes that I knew absolutely nothing about. Even though I did make it a point to act like I didn't care about it, the accusations definitely followed me around like a serious plague all through. Well at least till last night.As soon as I woke up, the first thing that came to mind was everything that had played out the previous night between myself and both Lucas and Simon, and a smile soon appeared on my face “Finally! I'm free” I exclaimed, as I excitedly got out of bed. I went straight into my bathroom to freshen up, and as I went about doing my usual morning routine, I couldn't help but to hum a song happily whilst carrying out every activity I did. “Oh, good morning my queen, you seem happy this morning,” Yasmine greeted warmly, as she peeked into the bathroom where I was busy brushing my teeth. I spat out the mouthwash

    Let the real games begin!!!!I took a deep breath, gathering my thoughts. “Because Amira has been helping me gather evidence. We have proof of her dealings with corrupt members of the court and her plans to undermine the council. I’ve been working with Rita to piece everything together, and we’re ready to present it to you.”There was a moment of silence as the two of them processed my words. Lucas finally leaned back in his chair, his expression thoughtful.“If what you’re saying is true, then why didn’t you come to us sooner?” he asked.“As if,” I scoffed. If I had come to them any sooner, they would have dismissed me as quickly as possible. Not to mention the fact that going without concrete evidence could have endangered the little I had managed to gather over that space of time.“If I had come any sooner, would you two have given me a listening ear? That is exactly the question you should be asking right now, not the one you just mentioned. Given that every attempt I made to reve

    Look back...This wasn’t just an attack on Amira—it was a trap for me. Veronica had suspected something, and now she was using Amira to bait me into revealing myself.I took a deep breath, forcing myself to remain calm. I couldn’t act rashly. If I made the wrong move now, everything we had worked for could be undone. But Amira—she had risked everything for me. I couldn’t just leave her to face this alone.As Veronica presented her so-called “evidence”—a series of forged letters implicating Amira in a conspiracy—my mind raced. I had to think quickly, but I couldn’t act openly in front of the council. I needed to find a way to turn this situation to my advantage.Then, an idea struck me. I stood up slowly, the eyes of the council and Veronica now on me.“Queen Veronica,” I began, my voice steady, “these accusations are indeed serious. But I must question why this alleged plot has only now come to light. Every one of us knows that this lady in question happens to be your most trusted han
