I stood in shock, unable to move a limb or even cry out in distress.

I slapped a palm across my mouth as I choked back the sobs that threatened to overwhelm me.

Alisa was looking in confusion. She still didn’t get why I was shaking so badly.

I took a deep breath and tried to calm down a bit so I could tell her about my dress.

But before I could speak, Gloria looked at the dress trying to investigate my insane reaction.

She shrieked in outrage when she saw my tattered wedding dress, Alisa and the other servants hurriedly turned to view the dress as well.

Alisa screamed out at the sight of the huge rips that raked down the dress.

Someone had shifted and railed the dress apart with their claws.

Alisa was so furious she wrapped her hand around one of the maid’s hair and began to pull on it.

I tried to stop her in shock, but she shrugged off my hand.

“What is the meaning of this? Why would you destroy the dress? Tell me exactly what happened to the dress immediately.”Alisa yelled at the m

    I took in a deep breath as I walked down the aisle where Arnou rood waiting for me.Granny was at my side and squeezed my arm in solidarity.I smiled back at her. I tried taking deep breaths.Eva was weeping from joy and I was happy but I was mostly concerned about not tripping on my dress.My face was slightly hidden behind my long lace veil but I was sure everyone could see my wide smile.The train of my dress trailed behind me and I peeked a look at Arnou’s face from under my veil.He looked tearful. I chuckled a bit as tears welled up in my own eyes.“You finally got me to agree didn’t you?” I shot at him cheekily.He seemed startled at my message and I smiled even wider in amusement.“I admit, I panicked when you didn’t show up,” Arnou replied.I got to the podium where Arnou stood waiting for me and Granny placed my palm in Arnou’s own.The crowd that had gathered all around to watch our joining burst into loud applause and o blushed as red as a tomato.Thank God for my veil.Gr

    Arnou’s POVI felt pain. The excruciating pain made me gasp for breath. I blinked my eyes trying to clear my head.Then I noticed the entire hall was in an uproar. Granny was yelling something and she was on the floor beside her.Beside Daciana! I sank to the floor with gritted teeth and tried to rouse my wife to no avail.She lay on the floor unconscious, every bit as beautiful as she had been the first time I saw her.Tears rolled down my eyes as I realized what was going on.I had known something was wrong. When Daciana and I held the lit candle for our joining, the complete mate bond snapped into place. However, the bond had been accompanied by extreme pain and a hot flash. I had been too surprised to react, then as quickly as I felt the pain, it vanished.I was perplexed and looked over at Daciana to see if she experienced anything similar. But she was staring at our joined hands with the most angelic smile on her face that I forgot about the pain.She must have been feeling t

    My entire world was fireI burnt from every crevice of my body and yet they wouldn't leave me alone.Arnou was in the room. I knew that because he had rushed in and held my hand trying to calm me down.I couldn’t focus on his face but I knew something was wrong. They wanted to put me in an ice bath meant to calm me but it hurts so much.It hurts when they touch me.I blinked my eyes trying to clear my vision as they cut through my dress. I tried my best to stay still, so they wouldn’t cut my skin by mistake.My legs hurt so fucking much, I’m sure it looks terrible.Silent tears rolled down my eyes and I peeked at my legs to see how much damage had been done.I cocked my brows perplexed. The skin of my legs was perfectly smooth. Sure I could see some red angry scratches my broken nails had made. But other than that my legs were absolutely fine.“Arnou?” I whispered and tugged on his shirt.I needed to know why my legs seemed to look different from how they felt.“My legs? My body-“ I t

    “Are you fine?” Alisa asked with a gasp as she ran over to me and began to frantically check my body.I was still self-conscious about how I looked so I tried to pull my arm back but Alisa held me firmly.She pulled up the sleeves of my dress and let out a choked sob.“I’m so, so sorry,” Alisa choked out as she dropped my arm like fire and stumbled backward.She probably felt guilty for finding the poisoned dress.“Hey, baby girl, it's not your fault,” I whispered with tears in my own eyes.I would have stood up and gone after her but my legs were still shaky.“Come,” I called out to her as I beckoned with my hands for her to come closer to me.She stopped walking backward and began to walk toward me.“If I had been more. If I did more or checked more-“ Alisa muttered.Her words broke my heart and made me shake my head vehemently.“No Alisa, you are perfect. You did good, this isn’t your fault. It’s the fault of the people who didn’t want my wedding to hold,” I said to her as she fina

    I could tell that Granny had a lot to say but she held her tongue.“Queen of queens, this medication is for your skin,” the physician replied somberly.“That wasn't the question I asked you. I asked what is the name of the illness you're trying to treat?” I said sternly.Alisa cleared her throat and looked at me pointedly. I ignored her.I'm tired of being taken advantage of. I still remember how easily Herley had manipulated the royal physician who attended to Granny.What's to stop her from doing the same thing now? “I asked you a question,” I yelled when the physician failed to respond.“Well, we're still studying the poison. The lab results are not in yet so I can't know the poison we're dealing with,” he replied.“So you're saying, you're trying to make me ingest pills for an illness you're yet to diagnose?” I asked him in disdain.“We are still looking into the poison. In a few days, the lab results will be out. The pills are just to help until then.” he replied quietly.“Help

    Chapter 61"What exactly are we doing here? With all due respect Lycan, we are your wedding guests. You cannot simply manhandle us and dishonor us like this!" Nikkini said with a sneer.Eden looked like he would do anything to be anywhere else except beside Nikkini."The Lycan didn't request your presence. I did," I said staring her down.Nikkini scoffed and was about to open her mouth when Eden fell to his knees."Congratulations on your wedding, Queen of Queens. Please forgive my Luna for her rudeness," Eden said meekly.Nikkini looked irritated at Eden's apology, and she burst out in anger."Don't call her that! She's not officially married to the Lycan. That's not her title," Nikkini said as she eyeballed my wheelchair.Herley made a similar statement today, could she and Nikkini be communicating with each other?Arnou looked ready to explode while Herley just looked on smugly.I squeezed Arnou's palm under the table to calm him down. If I could still feel the bond, I might have s

    Chapter 62 I grinned satisfied as Nikkini began to shake and mention Herley’s name. So fickle, exactly what I need to help me convict these criminals. As soon as Nikkini mentioned Herley’s name, Alisa began to shake her head slowly with her eyes wide in fear. This was exactly why I had given the gag order. I would have given her a reassuring look but that would be hypocritical. Arnou looked at me softly and I knew he was requesting permission to speak. I nodded my head slightly and waited to hear what he had to say. “You cruel woman, you do realize that the person you’re accusing is a member of my court. Falsely accusing her is a crime worthy of heavy punishment,” I was shocked at Arnou’s defense of Herley. What was wrong with this family, why did they insist on keeping Herley around even though she was evil? Even now, that they are faced with evidence that Herley had tried to kill me, Alisa still looked immensely relieved that Arnou had spoken out in Herley’s defense. If I di

    Chapter 63When we entered the dining room, all the generals were seated at the table eating and talking amongst themselves.They went quiet for a minute and I got the sense that they were probably debating the innocence of the suspects we had questioned.“Go on please, don't stop your chatting on our behalf,” I said pleasantly as Arnou wheeled me into an open space beside his seat.Gemma was the first person to speak up. She gave me a genuine smile and said loudly.“Well, I think Nikkini should be given the worst punishment possible for ruining your dress. That alone is worthy of punishment,”“Honestly. I get that she hates you but ruining your wedding dress, come on that's a step too far,” Rabira said in agreement.I agreed with them but I didn't show any signs of my personal feelings on the matter.I was still thinking about Alisa and how she had called Herley’s attempt on my life a petty grudge.Arnou picked up a plate and began to heap some food into it for me.I scrunched my eye

    EPILOGUE Narrator’s POV The woman floated around the ballroom in the arms of her beloved and surrounded by her pack members. Her subjects for she was their sovereign and their High Luna. Her heartbeat thundered with that of her husband. He was happy, she could feel it. So why wasn’t she content? Why did a niggling feeling seem to burrow away at the back of her mind? “My love? Are you okay?” The lycan asked as he focused his attention on her. “Yes, Just. I need some air. Please walk with me,” Daciana requested as she dropped her arm from Arnou’s shoulder and held on to his arm. . “Of course,” Arnou replied. No questions asked. Together, they walked out of the ballroom, their absence causing slight worry in a red-haired girl and her friend. “Do you feel a bit better now?” Arnou asked her as they walked down the palace hallway hand in hand. “Hmm. It’s just, we haven’t had this much peace and happiness in so long. Am I crazy, if I feel like it’s not permanent?” A slight frown

She was supposed to have some time to name her babies and hold and say goodbyes and…and…I pushed a trembling Alisa from me blindly as I crawled toward the burning figure in the middle of the dungeon.She didn’t even scream!Loud roars of anger resounded throughout the room as the Lycan sped into the dungeon and went straight for his burning wife.How could she do this?She burned brightly, with the flames so hurt that they charred my skin as I crawled towards her.As I screamed, cried, and sobbed, I vaguely registered someone wrapping their arms around my waist to keep me from reaching her.They didn’t have much success with the Lycan as he ran headfirst into the fire like it was water and held onto his burning bride.As I cried, I realized where the air should have been fil

    Chapter 223Narrator’s POVThe night was dark and the prison cell was cold yet the girl didn’t shiver or whimper. She stood with her arms chains and a resigned look on her face.The goddess knows this time she tried. She had looked on as everyone dropped to their knees and begged her. And even though she had dreamt, for months of the day they would all recognize that they wronged her, In that moment, all she felt was genuine worry that her best efforts wouldn’t be enough.It seems almost ironic, as she had been a proud, confidant general, Second only to the lycan and primed to be his high Luna. But living about those dreadful humans for months would do that to anyone. They would grate at you until all your confidence faded away.She knew the golden-haired woman wouldn’t die. She had taken measures against that a while ago but looking into the fearful faces of what had once been her family, Herley decided to scrape together what remains of confidence she had left and do her best.And i

    Chapter 222Daciana’s POVI stood in silence as I watched Arnou open my bedroom door weakly.The utter fear and grief on his face when I had agreed to end out marriage kept on replaying in my mind but I shook my head to clear my thoughts.Arnou stepped out into the sitting area and I followed closely behind him.The moment we came out, Maliya pushed herself out of Alisa’s arms and stood up with a fearful look on her face.“Well? What do we do now?” Alisa asked softly as she stood up and threaded her fingers with Maliyas.It gave me great joy to see that they had reconciled.“Nothing. We do nothing but wait fir it all to be over and I take this chance to say goodbye,” I replied her before Arnou could open his mouth to speak.He clenched his hands by his side in anger and I could feel the waves if his emotions and his hurt flooding through me.“But your children? Daciana reconsider this. Maybe there’s something we can do or-“ Danica said with a frown on her face.I walked up to her and

    Chapter 221Daciana’s POVI gasped as Triss yelled and everyone in the room turned to stare at me.Maliya blinked confused but I could already sense the animosity pouring from her at Triss’s announcement as she listened and didn’t hear any heart beating in my chest.“EVERYONE OUT!” Arnou growled suddenly as he pointed at the door.He was afraid. That much I could feel, but he was also incredibly relieved and that brought me small peace.My legs shook as I pulled myself to a seating position and Triss snarled at Arnou angrily.“I left just for a few minutes. What did you do? Where’s Daciana? Why is that thing in her body? She demanded angrily as her eyes flitted to me for a quick second.Hurt racked my body as tears pricked the back of my eyes and I started to speak. To tell Triss something. Anything that would make her know, I wasn’t some strange enemy but Arnou beat me to it.“I SAID LEAVE!” He yelled angrily as the doors of my bedroom swung open and several palace guards rushed in.

    Chapter 220Daciana’s POVIce flooded through my veins as I gave into the darkness. I was gone, drifting afloat in the darkness.Was this how Eva had felt? Was this how she had lived for months? Silenced and immune to the world.“Yes. Someone similar, except I was alone, but you’re not. I’m here with you, and together we’re stronger,” Eva’s soothing voice flooded my brain, and I smiled in ecstasy.Perhaps this place, this dark cocoon, was better after all.The sweet feeling of peace that lingered in my limbs, the love between my wolf and me We were made for this, just the two of us. No one else mattered.“Yes. We are,” I whispered back as a content smile flooded my lips. This place was perfect. Paradise.None of the suffering above could touch us here. Here we were happy and here we would remain-“NO!” The sharp scream of someone cut through my peace, and I blinked violently, disturbed.That wasn’t my wolf! Who was that, and why were they disturbing our peace? Were they trying to take

    Chapter 219Maliya’s PovI groaned weakly as I blinked open my eyelids.“What’s going on?” I croaked to no one in particular.“Here, have some water,” A voice said calmly from my bedside.I sat up slowly and stared at Alisa in shock.She had dark circles under her eyes and looked extremely tired but apart from that, I could almost not tell she had been battling a magic wielding, Vampiric child just hours ago.Wait! What time is it?The last time I had seen Alisa, she had been battling Star by herself while Prince Xavier faced off some other Vampire.The moment Verena died and told me to get Herley for the high Luna, I knew I had to leave before the Vampires finished off Alisa and Xavier and came for me too.I crawled to their horses that they had left unattended, and this one is surprisingly because I have no idea how I achieved such a feat but I dragged my naked and poisoned ass up one horse and held on as hard as I could while the horse raced away.The goddess surely had a hand in m

    Chapter 218Arnou’s PovPower surged through me. Expanding as the warmth of the fire licked at my fingers greedily. For a moment, I feared I was drawing on Daciana’s power too much, and I retracted my hand.It was unmarred, and when I turned my head around to stare at my wife on the bed, she lay unmoving, like the power draw hadn’t affected her at all.I already knew she was powerful, but it just put into perspective just how powerful she is.More confident than the first time, I put my hand into the flame again as the familiar feeling of warmth licked at my fingers. The fire danced like it was alive, and it was relatively easy for me to pluck a piece, almost like breaking off a branch of a tree.I withdrew my hand from the fire, and with the little piece swimming in my palm like mercury, I poured it into the tube and stood to my feet.Everyone in the room, including Herley, watched in surprise. It was almost like she hadn’t expected me to be able to do it.“You stuck your hand into f
