Esme’s POV

I barely slept as I spent all night packing my bags and anything that my father and I considered important.

I knew that after tonight, this place that had been my home for the last twenty-one years would not be anymore.

At the first break of dawn, I dragged one of my boxes downstairs, and I saw the two men from last night, standing with their backs ramrod straight while a bundle that I just realised was Calvin was tied up beside them.

“Is this all?” one of them asked, not sounding the least bit surprised that I came down with a box.

“There’s more upstairs.”

The both of them gave curt nods and then went upstairs.

By the time all of my bags were moved downstairs, an hour had passed, and I was surprised when the door opened, and three more men stepped in.

And right behind them was Silvan.

He stood there, his two hands in his pocket and the silliest grin on his face.

“Can we leave now?”

How did he know that I was going to come along?

I trailed behind him until we got to the

    Esme’s POVI could feel the scorn and the judgement in their gazes as soon as someone announced that I was a werewolf.Well, judging by what Silvan said, I wasn’t exactly one, but that wasn’t my place to say. Or so I felt.“Ohh! Is she one of your servants from the Thessaloniki’s Region?” The girl who spoke up at first asked, and I saw her gaze change from curiosity to disregard.“Kathie…” Silvan called out in a growl, and the girl, who I guessed was called Kathie, stepped back while trembling slightly.“This is Esme. She’s my woman, and I would not tolerate anyone being rude or disrespectful towards her.” I felt a certain kind of relief and emotions from watching Silvan declare I was his woman to seeing the gazes of the people here change.The whole place was dead silent, but I could feel their accessing gazes on me.“You took a werewolf as your woman?” Kathie asked while her eyes sent daggers my way.“And you are bringing her back with you? To the palace?” another person added. T

    Esme’s POVI sucked in air at the grand entrance they were giving him. I had already felt that the fleet of cars and all those people there when we landed was already impressive.From my side eye, I could see Silvan's calmness to all these. It was clearly something that he was used to. “Alpha,” a middle-aged lady stepped out from the lineup and curtsied. “Madame Helene, how is mother?” Silvan asked, and my ears perked up. “The Queen demands that you come to the west wing first. She has invited all the core family members.” Silvan turned to look at me. “Would you like to meet my mother?” While I wasn’t mentally prepared, I didn’t think refusing was an option. This Madame Helene worked for his mother and would communicate everything to her.Even though I now knew that Silvan wasn’t as ruthless as I thought him to be, there was no way I would underestimate anyone from the Royal Lycan Empire.“If I won’t disrupt your meeting, I can tag along.” Madame Helene nodded subconsciously, le

    Esme’s POVSilvan gave me a subtle nod that I somehow understood, and we sat down simultaneously. The young man and lady with the bright pink hair also sat down right after, and the room became much calmer. Although I knew it was a temporary solution, and it wasn’t that they accepted me as one of them, I was glad they weren’t making things difficult for him anymore as it made me feel even worse. I had never treated him nicely or considered him a person who deserved my respect, and here he was, protecting me from my people and then protecting me from his people, too. “If she isn’t a full Lycan, that means that she can’t have any abilities, right?” a familiar voice asked, and I turned to look at Kathie. Until now, I hadn’t noticed she was here, but it made sense that she was here as I had guessed that they were related from their previous interaction. But what did she mean by abilities? She knew nothing about me and immediately decided that I didn’t have any abilities.After runnin

    Esme’s POVI was certain that this had to be a trick from Kathie as the room was empty, and the centre had a white circle that looked like it was deliberately drawn for a purpose. Although I wasn’t scared of a challenge, I was worried that I would get into trouble and somehow implicate Silvan. My hand went to the knob again, but right as I pressed down, the light in the room went off! “Stop playing games, Kathie!” I called out as I felt panic within my bones. Just what was she playing at? Despite my sharpened senses, I realised my eyes weren’t adjusting to the darkness. Instead, it felt like the room was starting to move. Or was that my mind playing tricks on me? I got my answer soon enough as the room and the world around me started to spin in circles. I clutched the doorknob for support, but it was barely enough as dizziness began to set in from how fast the room was moving. Before long, my hold on the knob slackens, and I fall to the floor.However, instead of the hard tiled

    Silvan’s POV“The coronation should be held soon. There are already whispers,” someone stated as the meeting got to its climax. I shifted my gaze to my mother, and I could tell she sensed my warning because she looked away while faking a cough. “I won’t be returning anytime soon. We can talk about the coronation in the next meeting,” I replied, eager to leave. After waiting for three years and ensuring I was right, I finally brought Esme to my home. To my world. And I wanted to be there with her. “That means we can start preparing for the Royal wedding?” Another elder in the family asked, and my brows furrowed slightly. I didn’t want to rush things with Esme. She had spent the last three years hating me and thinking of me as the worst person in the world. I wanted us to take our time at being friends, partners and then an official couple. But I also knew it was impossible to crown a new king who didn’t have a bride. It was one of the rules passed down century after century.

Did someone save me from that Damned desert? “Esme,” Silvan’s familiar voice called out, and my eyes turned to the other side of the room. As my eyes met his, relief rushed through me and without thinking twice, I lunged into his embrace. “I knew you’d find me.” I don’t know how, but in less than three days, this man had become one of the most important parts of my life, and as Silvan wrapped his arm around me, pulling me into his embrace even tighter, everything felt perfect. We stayed that way, not saying anything, and our breaths were the only sound in the room. Also, I could feel a tug from within me to Silvan. It was like he was a missing piece. And the puzzle was now complete.“You have your Lycan?” Silvan asked, breaking the silence, and I raised my head to meet his sparkling blue ones.“My Lycan?” The events

    CHAPTER 16Esme’s POVThree days ago, when I had stood in the same room with most of them, I had been worried out of my mind and a little afraid. But after surviving that desert and getting my Lycan, I didn’t feel the same way again, and I returned every gaze with an equally sharp one. Unlike most of them here, I had a lot of experience leading people, and I had most of them looking away in seconds. However, my gaze stayed a little longer on a blonde-haired girl that I hadn’t seen in the first meeting. She was beautiful and elegant, and she stood out from everyone around her just by sitting there. But the most important thing was the challenge I felt from her gaze. Who was this?“I woke up this morning,” I finally replied to Kathie and ignored the side glare that she was giving me. If she could take her time in seeing me, there was no reason why I had to give her immediate replies.“Next time, you need to listen to me or anyone from here so you don’t make mistakes like that.”“What

I still couldn't believe that he was alive.I stared deep into his eyes and felt tears almost building up in mine.He ran his hands lovingly through my locks and kissed my forehead softly.“I missed you so much, Silvan. I was so worried. I thought that I would never…”" Shhhh,” he said hushing me gently. "I am here now. I'm just glad that you are safe. I was just as worried as you and I feared that you would never wake up again.”He kissed me tentatively on the lips and I groaned softly as his soft tongue wrapped around mine. Being asleep for almost three weeks was more than enough time to make me crave his touch hungrily. I missed him, and now that I had him, I wanted him deep inside me.He pulled away and stroked my locks.“You should get some rest. Your bruises still need to heal and I'll ask the maids to get you so

    Chapter 135Esme's POV I felt very hungry in my sleep and had to force my eyes open. Not expecting to be met with so much brightness, I squinted my eyes to slowly adjust to the light in the room. I stared out the window, different thoughts running through my mind. I recognize the room as the one I shared with Silvan back at the empire."Silvan!" I suddenly called and sprung out of the bed. My thoughts were correct, I was back home at the palace, but how?Images of how I had witnessed everyone die flashed in my head and I quickly hurried out of the room."Silvan!" I called again but got no response."Rue!""Paul!""Amy!" There was nobody in sight even as I called Their names, I began to wonder if I was in a dream."My Lady" someone called from behind and I turned to see Odelia, the young maid whom Silvan had once made to attend to each of my needs.Instinctively, I pulled her in a hug, my heart palpitating in trepidation.

    Chapter 134Esme's POVMy heart wrenched in pain as I screamed out my lungs. Silvan lay on the floor, blood oozing from his lips and the cuts on his face.Tears poured out of my eyes as I stared at Silvan's limp body on the cold floor. The exchange of gunshots had seized as everyone stared at Silvan's body as if in a trance. Mustering the last energy I had left in me, I pulled on the chains on my hands with all my strength. Seeing Silvan's state seemed to fuel my energy as I felt myself break out of the chains that were used to hold me down.Pushing Lois's already cold body away, I quickly rushed to Silvan's side, not minding the fact that my chest was not properly covered.I scooped him in my arms, his blood soiling my clothes entirely. "Someone call the ambulance!" I yelled desperately, rubbing my hands on his."My King" I called tearfully, my voice croaky and filled with pain.He smiled sadly, "I'm sorry I broke my promise" he whispered, his eyes peering into mine."Who cares abo

My heart was palpitating with fear and my body longed to be released from the binds that held me down.I could hear Kane laughing hysterically and closed my eyes in pain. A drop of tear slipped out of my eye as I clenched my jaws to keep the pain in.As if on cue, the door burst open and a fiery-looking Silvan barged in alongside Doran and Paul. There were a whole lot of guards that came in with him too and they were fully armed.I wasn't expecting it but just as they entered, Kane's men took their stance as well. The two groups pointed guns at each other, staring at themselves eyeball to eyeball.I heard Kane hiss from his seat beside my bed, "What a party pooper. I wasn't expecting you until I drained her empty" he complained with an eye roll.Silvan eyes instantly widened as they fell on me, "What are you doing to her?" He demanded and started rushing towards Kane who quickly began to yank the wires out of

So what's next?"Sophie was led inside the room, she curtsied politely, "Greetings Alpha, you sent for me"I made to grab her hands but stopped midway and glared dangerously at her."What do you know about Kane of Hammock Corporation?""Mr. Kane?""Is there any other Kane you have been intimate with?" I slammed impatiently.Her face turned red with embarrassment at my outburst, I instantly realized my fault and cleared my throat noisily, "Come with me," I said simply, moving out of the room.

Though the room was dimly lit, I could hear the beeping of a machine beside me."You are awake finally"I could recognize his annoying voice from miles away, I turned my head towards Kane's direction. Amidst the injury he had sustained from me, he had an excited look on his face"Where am I?" I demanded coldly."Heaven" he replied with an evil cackle.I gave him a proper stare to see that he has some wires attached to his body and then it hit me, I was still in that damned room and on the bed he had flung me on.But I thought he shot me, how come I am still living?"It wasn't a real bullet" he answered as if reading my thoughts, "it's a sedative dart"I winced as I felt something leave my body, Kane smiled broadly, "I have been waiting for you to wake up since.

He returned with a wicked glint in his eyes.I gave him a confused stare and turned to Daniel who was still whimpering in pain, they are working together?"What are you doing here?

I called out in panic and heard no response, the space was eerily quiet and I stopped in my tracks, taking my time to slowly observe my environment.There was no one in sight, the only item in the room was a single bed and stool beside the bed. It looked like a sick bed but there was nobody on it.Ira was on full alert, she began to trace Silvan's scent around the dimly lit room but he was nowhere in sight. The closing of the door made me spin around to see Daniel holding a bat and staring at me ferociously. I looked into his eyes and gasped at how emotionless it looked.He slowly locked the door while keeping his eyes pinned on me,"Silvan isn't here, is he?" I asked in a calm tune, my eyes watching his grip on the bat and the cold look on his face, he shrugged and moved the ba
