Cindy's POV "Are you ready?" Alder asked. Just as he promised, we were on our way to L.A. I couldn't wait to go back and see those leeches. Lincoln has set up everything, and I am sure they will be shocked when I appear before them. The videos of them killing me will be proof of their crime. I will make sure to put them behind bars if not kill them. I have no concrete evidence about how they killed my father, and I just hope that what they said in my apartment will be a big help. "I was born ready," I replied, and he looked at me. I could feel that he was worried, and I don't know why. There was nothing for him to worry about me, though. We are in his private plane, and he is really the King. I was seated beside him because he didn't want me to sit away from him. It must be because of the mate bond. This time, Charles was with us, and Lance would be handling the palace while they were away. "You are not going to act rashly, OK?" He reminded me, and I didn't want to reply because he
Cindy's POV "What's wrong with you?" The b***h asked as the ba****d was helping her get up. He looked at me, and I said, "I'm asking you what was wrong with you?" Lin asked after she got back to her feet. "There's nothing wrong with me, and I don't know about you," I replied, "Come on, love, I'm starving," Alder said, and I wanted to roll my eyes at him. I had already told him not to call me that, but he was not listening. But I decided just to let him be. It was only a waste of time arguing with him when I already knew he would not listen to me. I started walking but stopped by those two leeches again. "Is that it? You're not going to apologize?" Lin asked angrily, and I wanted to laugh at her. She never let me see that side of her. Gosh, is she always like this? How come I never had any idea about her being like this? "Why would I? Who are you?" I asked arrogantly. "You can take your seat, and I will settle things here." Charles said, "People are looking, and it will be embarra
Alder's POV It was them, Cindy's ex-boyfriend and best friend. I felt her anger and knew she wanted to kill them both. I tried not to get mad at her because I knew she was not in the mood after seeing the reason for our stay here in L.A. My mate is aggressive, and she looks beautiful when she's mad. I didn't know what I needed to do just for her to accept me, even though I knew she would make everything complicated. The waitress's presence at our table made Cindy happy. When I looked at Charles, I tried not to laugh at him. He looks stupid, staring at his mate. Now, we both have problems with our mate. He was human and knew nothing about our kind and mine. Well, she's human and a werewolf, but she was betrayed. "So, you're Mia?" I stated the obvious. It was clearly on her name tag. I looked at Cindy, who creased her forehead. She might think I was feeling close to Charles's mate, so I just ignored her. "He is my friend, and I think he likes you," I told her, and she looked at my ga
Alder's POV "What are you doing here?" Dr. Lin Uy, Cindy's best friend, asked in surprise. Just what Cindy wanted, we went to the meeting. I pulled a chair for my mate to sit before I sat beside her. "Dr. Uy, this is Mr. Alder Volcik, the hospital's owner." Director Clint said he must be wondering why I attended the meeting. He knows me, and, as I already said, this is the first time that I am getting myself involved with my own business. "Why are they here?" she asked, "You are the arrogant woman who bumped into me last night in the restaurant," she added, but my mate kept quiet. "As you already know, you are suspended until further notice." Director Clint said, "You are the patient's surgeon, so until everything is clear, you will have to be suspended. I didn't want any news to come out that the hospital is doing nothing about the issue," he added. "Cindy was my best friend, and it was also hard for me." "What's hard for you?" Cindy asked, "Ahh, you mean fu****g with her boy
Third Person's POV Cindy's nervousness turned into fury when she saw Mike sitting on one of the chairs. "What the hell are you doing here?" she asked angrily. "You have no right to be here, you leech!" she added, which widened Mike's eyes and the board's eyes on him. "Excuse me, but who are you? I am the one who should ask you that. This is the first time that I saw you." he replied, making himself confident. "Didn't the b**** tell you about me?" she asked, glaring. Alder took her hand, trying to calm her. "Whose b**** are you talking about?" Mike asked, trying to act innocent. "I see; this is how you fooled Cindy. But sorry to say, acting innocent is not going to work with me," she replied, "This is Ms. Clover Ellington, and she is here as Mr. Dennis Mills's heiress." One of the lawyers that Lincoln hired said, "What???" Mike stood up and shouted, and everyone looked at him. He thought he shouldn't have acted that way and should calm himself, so he sat down again. "What is
Third Person's POV Another week later, they went back to Alaska. If it were only Cindy, she would never have returned there, but Masha had been begging her to come with their mate, and she didn't know why she couldn't say no. She didn't like the idea of someone telling her what and not to do. She grew up to decide for herself even if her dad got mad at her. "Your Highness, the king, wanted you to eat with him and the others," Charles said. One thing she noticed was that he had been too comfortable with her. "What is wrong with you?" she asked, "Nothing, Your Highness," he replied. "I know that you still have a problem with Mia, but don't expect that I am going to help you," she said, "It would be better if you helped me out, but I will try my best to woo her if you don't want to. I never thought that I was going to find my mate this time. I was giving up and didn't search anymore, but because of you, I found her." he replied, but Cindy ignored him. She stood up, left their bedr
Mia's POV I didn't know why I decided to come to Clover in Alaska. I somehow felt like she would never harm me in any way. I felt comfortable with her, and I trusted her instantly. Yes, the moment that I saw her. She called me when one of her friends stopped me and looked at me as though he wanted to take me somewhere, and I also felt like I wanted to go to him. I had been in a horrible relationship, and if not for my friend Cindy, I would have ended up dead. I was abused by my ex-boyfriend, physically and mentally. He was very possessive. I felt happy about it at the beginning of our relationship, but after a month, he started to show his actual color. I love him, so I gave him my body and thought he was the one for me. He took care of me and gave me everything that I needed. At first, the s*x was good; he was gentle, and I liked it. He pleasured me in so many different ways until that one fateful night. He wanted to have s*x with me, along with the other woman. Of course, I couldn
Charles's POV My mate was previously abused by her ex-boyfriend. I already see myself wooing her forever. I didn't want her to feel or remember that anymore, so I promised that I would do everything I could just to make her happy. Without her knowing, she was sitting on the gamma's floor, and my room was next to hers. She's a human, so she never smelled my scent whenever I was there. Our queen was the main reason she was here, so I also owe everything to her. I will ensure her safety and her being my mate's best friend. I will be able to protect them at the same time. I was thankful to the moon goddess for giving me a submissive mate. No offense meant, but I don't know how to handle her if she was like Queen Clover. Even Alder was having a hard time making her submit to him. I looked at my mate, who was sleeping soundly beside me. We had intense love-making earlier, and even if I wanted her again, I think she needed a rest. She's human and won't be able to keep up with my stamina.
Alder’s POV Mirasol died afterward, and because of the feeling of relief, I hugged my mate. I had no idea why she suddenly told me to teleport her to that witch, but my instinct told me to just follow her. I know I sounded pathetic, but even my beast agreed to let her lead us. That is how much we trust our mate and how much we love her. What’s important is that everything is settled. I never thought that the past was still haunting me until Lorena came. Maybe it was also the reason why the moon goddess decided to let Cindy be reborn in Clover’s persona. I saw Lorena and Isabel kneel down out of tiredness when I looked around. Lance and James started to look after the wounded warriors. I didn't think it was safe for the others to be called out of the bunker, so I didn’t until we cleaned everything out. The warriors and fighters were all tired, but they wanted to make sure of the safety of their families and loved ones as well. The palace doctors and nurses arrived and started to br
Alder’s POV I hate Cindy’s idea. How can she protect me? It should be the other way around. Her mom, Isabel, told us about Mirasol’s mansions. I was shocked to learn that they have been operating illegal activities for a long time now. How can I be so stupid not to know that? I wanted to raid them all, but Isabel stopped me. She wanted to use that to our advantage. “We can do that after we defeat her,” she said, “How?” Lance asked, “She will be complacent once she notices that we are not raiding all her mansions and will eventually think that we had no idea about it as well,” she answered. “Mirasol will definitely get ahead of herself and will take that as her advantage and think that we have no idea about who we are dealing with or who our enemy is,” Cindy added, “You mean, not attacking any of their mansions will be a bait for them?” Charles asked, and the mother and daughter nodded. “I’m sure that her target will be you, Your Highness. He will try to get into your mind, so
Third Person’s POV “We have to start moving now before they can prepare. There’s no use in trying to get in there through the portal since they managed to make a strong barrier.” Mirasol said, looking at Dan, the Lycan rogue. “We're going in by force?” he asked, and she nodded. “Did you think about it a few times? It’s the palace, and all the strongest and fierce warriors and fighters are there,” he added. “Do you think I am such an idiot not to know about that? Of course, I thought about it, and I am not going to ask you to get ready if I knew that we were going to lose in this war,” she replied angrily. “They had no idea about us yet and were taking advantage of that,” she added. “What if you’re wrong? What if they already knew about us?” Dan asked, “If they already knew about us, they should have raided all our mansions, you idiot! Do you think Alder will let it pass once he knows that the mansion around the palace was actually a hideout of illegal activities? Especially when h
Cindy’s POV Aunt Lorena is really amazing. It has been almost a month since Mom left for the enemy’s turf, but she maintains the barrier. There were no enemy sightings inside the palace territory, which only meant that she was doing a good job. We can’t afford to let them get in using their portal. It will be a disaster since they will just spawn anytime and anywhere they want. We didn’t want that because of every palace member who couldn’t fight, rely on us, and believe in us. It seems to me that the issue with Mom’s ancestors will never end unless Alder’s family is no longer the one on the throne. I don’t know why they were so clingy when they all knew that Mirasol was not Alder’s grandfather’s fated mate. And it was hard to resist the bond. Even when I still had no idea about it, until Alder started calling me his mate and that we were fated mates, I couldn’t totally get rid of him. Always want to see him and always want him to touch me. That’s why I understand the previous king’s
Cindy's POV Mom left after she taught Aunt Lorena how to maintain the barrier. I had no idea about it, and even if my aunt was a strong witch, she never felt it at all. I guess my mother is really good, just like what my aunt said. My worry about everything has started to fade even if Mom confirms how strong our enemies are. I don’t care about that anymore. With her, my aunt, Alder, and our friends and pack members with me, I fear nothing. I believe that we will be able to defeat them since we uphold the core values and the main reason for our existence. The Moon goddess will never let her children suffer at the hands of her own child who went astray. “Lorena, are you sure about this?” Alder asked. We went to see her because mom had told her to be ready. She was worried that after she went after her aunt, they would go back and try to get into the palace territory through their portal. “Yes, I had to eat a lot. What Isabel wanted me to do would drain my energy. Thankfully, I had a
Third Person’s POV “Can you tell her to come and talk to us?” Alder asked, and Cindy nodded before she went quiet again. The others let her talk to her mother, hoping they would be able to get more information about their enemy. Lorena still had reservations but hoped that everything was real. She didn’t want to disappoint her niece when everything turned out to be a fluke. She was sure that the pain it would give her would be unbearable. She knew how much her niece missed her mother, especially when she remembered nothing about her except for the fact that her dad told her not to get mad at Isabel. They waited until Cindy looked at them. “She can’t right now. She said that, in the meantime, she had to leave to check on something. Once she is sure about that, she will be back and meet us in person.” “Why does she need to leave? What is it that she wanted to check out?” Lorena asked, “Mom said it was important, and she wanted you to look out here while she’s away. What’s there to l
Alder’s POV I had a feeling that Cindy was hiding something from me, but I could see that she was debating with herself whether she would tell me it or not. That’s why I always wanted to be with her since I knew that if I did that, she might be able to open up and tell me whatever it was that was bothering me. The next morning, after she had marked me when we were busy with the celebration, I felt that something was bothering her. It was an instant because I still felt how happy she was, and then suddenly, she became uneasy. Trying to hide my worry was extremely difficult. After we marked each other, we could easily tell how we were with each other without asking. Since I already knew that I could try to hide my emotions, unlike her. She’s new to our kind and how we really are. During my regular meetings with my beta and gamma, as well as the head of the patrol guards, I could feel her being worried and then angry. So, I had to excuse myself after she answered me through our link abo
Cindy’s POVRoaming around the palace was one thing I liked to do the most. Although there was a threat to me, especially to my mate, I don’t care about that now. He made sure that he was fine, and I believed him. Why? I trust my mother. She’s going to come to me once she finds out something that may lead to hurting me. I actually didn’t understand everything that was happening. I mean, I am Cindy Mills, a billionaire and the daughter of the wealthiest man in the country who happens to have witch's blood. Only he is not because he is a man. On the other hand, my mother was also a witch. A powerful one, I guess, since her ancestor managed to invade the previous queen’s mind and kill her.What I can’t get is the fact that I am in Clover’s body, who was a pure wolf. Only my soul was in her body, so how come I have a witchy aura? Does that aura connect to my soul? Aunt Lorena told me that being a witch runs only with the women in our family. Since I have my mother’s blood, will I be able t
Third Person’s POVMarked and mated completely. Alder felt himself stronger than he already was, and Cindy was content. She just realized that placing her mark on her mate gives them great power. Now that their bond is complete, they are confident that they will be able to attain their maximum power and potential. Everyone in the palace was rejoicing as they also felt their king and queen’s bond getting stronger. One thing about a Lycan being with its fated mate is that it gave the entire kingdom an unexplainable bind as well. Every pack will become connected to its king and queen.Because of the completion of their bond, the morning in the palace becomes special. The omegas prepared their breakfast intended for everyone. It started with Alder’s grandfather, who found his fated mate, compared it to those who didn't, and noticed that their power increased. That’s why his grandfather made his father promise to wait for his fated mate, which he did, and he grew up with that in mind. That’
