Nova’s pov

I paced back and forth in the royal infirmary, I rushed up to the closed door and peeked through the keyhole to see the royal doctor, attending to Shayna whose eyes were shut tight on the sick bed.

“Please calm down your Highness, she'll be fine.” Cinder walked up to me, her eyes were crimson red.

She had been with me since we brought got here, she refused to go back even though we'd spent hours at the infirmary, waiting for the doctor to tell us the chance of Shayna’s survival.

“Can you wait here for me?” I wiped my tears with the back of my palm.

Cinder stared at me, unable to comprehend where I was going or who I was going to meet.

“Where are you going, your Highness?” she asked, her eyebrows rising while staring at me in anticipation.

“I need to see someone real quick, please stay here until I return.” I rushed out of the infirmary, heading to see the person who sent my maid unconscious.

I marched towards the residents building. All the maids I walked passed bowed to me

    Prescott’s pov“Because I am the Queen! I am the Queen of this nation. If you can do as you wish because you're the King. I will also do as I wish because I am the Queen! Just as the king can exercise his authority, I too have the power to make decisions for the good of my people and you're not to question me because I never questioned your authority!”“No! You're wrong!” I barked at her, Nova moved away in shock, tears shimmered in her eyes as she stared back at me in utmost shock.I gripped her arm and made her look straight into my eyes. “I am the only one who has the power to do anything. I made you the Queen because I wanted to, not because you wished to. One word from me, and you'd be withdrawn from your post.” Nova flinched back in fear, terror was clearly shown on her face. Shock slapped her face when I forcefully pushed her to Wharton, she crashed into his chest and staggered backwards before standing straight.“In case you don't know, your life is no longer yours but mine.

    Nova’s povAs I was dozing off in the chair, my body gradually began to slump over. Slowly, my head drooped down and my eyes fluttered shut. Then, with a soft thump, I tumbled off the chair and onto the cold, hard marble floor. I gave a sleepy groan as my head made contact with the ground. The impact woke me up, sleep left my eyes and I winched in pain.“Aargh!” I whimpered, dragged my body off the floor and stood on my feet.I moved my gaze to the chair and I wondered why I was sleeping there in the first place when I should be having a peaceful sleep on the bed.I yawned and rubbed my eyes with the back of my palm, my stomach made an annoying grumble and I held my stomach through the clothing. Just then, reality struck me; I slept off on the chair after the grumpy guy brought me to my room. I slept without having dinner.“That stupid dumbhead!” I rolled my eyes and dragged my feet towards the mirror.Checking myself in the mirror, it seemed like I just came out of a horror movie. M

    Nova’s pov“Where are we going?” I asked, trailing quietly behind her.Lady Everest shrugged, snaking her hand into her hair.“You will know when we get there, for now, go to your maid and check how she's fairing.” she beamed, brushing her hair to the back.That being said, how did she know about Shayna? How did she know whose maid she was?“My lady?” I called, rather in a question. Lady Everest halted on her track and turned her face towards me.“Yes, your Highness?” her lips pressed in a thin line, and she furrowed her brows, urging me with her smoky eyes to tell her what was on my mind.“By any chance… No! How did you know about my maid, and how did you know that I was grounded?” it was my turn to arch my brows, lady Everest gulped and then smiled awkwardly.“Let's just say,” she paused, tilting her head to a side, “no offence,” she grinned, hitching the back of her neck.“None taken.” I smiled awkwardly, staring right into her face.“I have always wanted to know what the king and

    Prescott’s povEver since Nova began to live in the same building as me, I had been staying behind in my office, which resulted in having to go through extra paper works since I could not just leave them.Lately, there have been a lot of cases circulating in the nation. The news of Eruba, a faceless rogue’s leader whose identity was unknown had been reaching out to some packs.I didn't want anyone to know about him before I catch him and give him the punishment he deserved. But unfortunately, there had been four packs who had learnt about him and his secret signature has been known by the Alphas of these four packs.There was a case that came in from the West pack, a rogue was spotted in the wall of the Blue Moon pack, a pack that Alpha Randale, Nova’s father governed.I silently prayed to the moon goddess that the rogue should be one of Eruba’s boys. I had been chasing him for years and I hope to catch him soon before everyone learns of him.“Elder Bighana is here to see you, your Ma

    Nova’s povMy heart was pounding hard against my chest as I trailed quietly behind the Lycan King. My steps were quick and light as I tried to keep up with his long strides.His long legs kept taking a long stride that I knew I would be darned if I should slower my pace.I had a lot of questions, but whom shall I ask? I wanted to know why he came to fetch me by himself. I wanted to know why he didn't react instantly to why I left the building without his permission. A part of me yelled out his name and demanded where he was taking me.But I was afraid to speak, afraid to draw the attention of the people in the infirmary to myself, but my fear was palpable, my every breath quick and shallow. Without saying a word, or glancing back to look at me, Prescott led me down a narrow alleyway, down to a building that I had never been to since I got to the royal villa.I could hear my pulse pounding in my ears, and my palms were sweating. I had no idea what he wanted from me, but I knew that I

    Prescott’s povAs Elder Bighana narrated the situation to Nova, I relaxed into the seat, waiting for her word to make my wish come true.I had left her some clue and I was sure she understood what I was saying. I watched her with the corner of my eyes, a faint smile appeared on her face as she pressed her lips into a thin line.“I vote to disagree!” She blurted out.It was as if I had hit my ears with a sharp nail. It seemed as though I had lost my hearing.I sprang up from the seat and pulled her up by the collar of her shirt. My heart hammered against my chest, it was as though my life was crumbling at my feet.“What did you just say?” I howled, my grip on her shirt tightened and I watched her move her gaze to my hands on the collar of her shirt.She smirked and stared at me with her jewel-toned eyes.“I disagree with you ruling the nation on your own!” she whispered to my face and slapped my hands off her shirt.I stared at her with my jaw clenched in both anger and frustration.

    Nova’s pov“Hey, watch your step.” I helped Shayna with the door and she threw me a dirty look.“For goddess sake, Princess?!” Shayna grumbled, eyeing my hand on her shoulder.“I don't know why you insisted on leaving the infirmary when you should be there for one more day.” I kissed my teeth, guarding her inside my room. “Why are you treating me like this? I am a werewolf for goddess' sake, and I'm completely healed.” she groaned, entering my room, her nose in the air, taking in my floral scents.“This is my first time in this place, it is nice here, compare to the other room.” Shayna smiled, strolling towards the window with her arms wide.“Do you think so?” I tilted my head, checking out the room like it was my first time there. “I think the other room is nice and cozy. No high windows,” I strolled to her, pushed open the Bay window, “and there's no fear of running into the beast.” recalling that his bedroom was just opposite mine. I walked back to the bed and plunged into the sil

It was as if he just read my mind. How the hell would I share an apartment with some warriors?“You?” I pointed at the pregnant girl, his head snapped at me, her eyes widened and her jaw dropped

    Nova’s POV “Has she been given a name?” I asked, gazing down at my niece's tiny hand, her tiny fingers wrapped around my pinky. She was the most precious thing I had ever seen, and I couldn't help but feel a surge of love for her. Tamsyn shook her head, her eyes never leaving her daughter's face. “No, we haven't given her a name yet,” she said, her voice soft and full of wonder. “I was so sure it would be a boy, and I'd been planning to name him after his father. But now...I'm at a loss. I don't know what to name her.” She paused, her gaze shifting to meet mine. “I want her name to be perfect, to capture everything she is.” “What about Dahlia?” Prescott spoke up for the first time since we got to the pack and I had to turn around to stare at my husband from where he was standing at the far end of the room. “Dahlia?” I asked, not believing Prescott would want to take up the task of naming my niece. “Why Dahlia?” Tamsyn asked from where she was lying down on the hospital bed.

I couldn't help but burst out laughing - the whole situation was just too ridiculous. How could she be so upset over something so trivial? I mean, sure, getting rejected by your crush is never easy, but it's not like it's the end of the world. There are plenty of other fish in the sea! Everest groaned from where she sat, patting Shayna on the back. “Oh, please. That's rich coming from you.” she scoffed.“Don’t act all innocent. You chased after my cousin for years and didn't eventually get him. You shouldn't be acting all mighty, you know?”I had always known Everest to be a grumpy, no-nonsense type of lady - if you could even call her a “lady” with the way she acted. But I never expected her to be so fiercely protective of Shayna. I mean, when did they become best friends? The

    NOVA’S POVA month has already passed since the incident with the rogue leader who unfortunately turned out to be Elder Bighana. I haven't gotten over the incident and Prescott did little to nothing to make me get over the incident.Every action he took, every word he uttered and his sudden possessive act reminded me of that horrible incident that happened to me a month ago. Even though not everyone in the Villa knew about the incident, he wouldn't stop to draw the line between me and every soul who reside in the Villa.‘How dare you let the Queen leave the Villa on her own?’‘Where were you when the Queen entered the kitchen?’‘Have the meal tested for poison before you set the table for the Queen.’ his words to the royal guards echoed through my mind and I shook my head, not thinking I would ever understand the way he thinks.Don't do this, don't go there alone, don't get involved in any activities. I'd already got tired but can I complain when he was doing all that to keep me safe?

Walking back to the bed with his eyes on me, I didn't say anything as he swept me off the bed, holding me tightly to his chest as he strolled towards the bathroom. Every things happen for a reason as they said. But I didn't know what to feel about my encounter with Eruba. I didn't know what to think about the things I saw and I heard from there. It was as if I had gone dumb as I held tightly onto Prescott as he held me in his arms.I could hear my heart thumping hard in my chest as he entered the bathroom, and carefully placed me down in the bathtub. The warm water felt like heaven, the thought of being back to the Villa, back to my home brought tears to my eyes.Elder Bighana had said I was going to die the next day, and the thought of him, being the one that would face his demise, right in the hands of hi

    Dixon’s POV‘Make sure you're both safe before I get there. Don't do anything foolish, and wait for me.’I could still remember his Majesty's warning as I slowly turned around to see the cowardly bastard, standing before me with his arms crossed.“Where do you think you're taking her, Dixon?” Elder Bighana smirked, his ugly face was filled with a sly smile as he slowly approached us.I let go of the Queen's hand, and gently pushed her to my back as I stood still, waiting for the bastard to get to my front.“Where do I think I'm taking her? I'm taking her back to where she belongs.” I smirked, closing the little distance between me and him.Elder Bighana slightly raised one brow, his smile deepened as he lowered his head, smirking down at me.“And where did she belong? The Villa, or her father's pack?” he howled, his breath on my face making my stomach churn.“Anywhere you could think of. I'm tired of taking orders from you like a coward, I'm done cleaning your shit so fuck yourself an

Tomorrow will be my last day.” tears streamed down my cheeks as I gripped the lid and opened the bottle. “Tomorrow I'm going to die without seeing Prescott or my family for the last time.” I sobbed, tears streamed down my face and I didn't bother to wipe my face.I moved the bottle to my nose, I sniffed the content but it was odourless. I gulped down nervously before moving the bottle to my mouth.“He said he would get rid of me tomorrow, it can't be possible that he gave me poison to drink, right?” I breathed out, the fear of drinking poison weighed me down, but if he was to poison me he would have done it by himself.I parted my lips and poured the whole content into my mouth, I didn't feel anything at first, so I gulped it down my throat.My throat hurt like hell, it was as if the content was tearing my throat apart.

    Nova’s POV Tears streamed down my face as I ran my fingers over my toes, my touch landing on a space where my smallest toe should have been. The emptiness was a harsh reminder of what I'd lost, and I could feel the grief rising inside me.‘Oh, I've got something even better. Let's go with this.’My hand moved to my chest, grasping for the familiar weight of the necklace my aunt had given me. But it was gone, the shithead Eruba took it.“That bastard took it from me,” I mumbled, my heart pounding in my chest. I held my breath as I heard footsteps approaching, panic rising in my throat. I slid into the shadows, desperate to avoid the man who had caused so much pain. He was a monster, and I couldn't face him again.The door opened, and I gripped my chest as I heard the footsteps moving towards me.“There you are, my sweet queen.” The voice was sickeningly familiar, but I couldn't place it. My mind raced, trying to remember where I'd heard it before. But I couldn't think straight, the pa

    Prescott's POV“Everything is ready, your Majesty!” Czar uttered a sly smile laced on his face as he stepped away from the door, giving me access to enter the dungeon to interrogate Dixon.I didn't say anything, I sighed, and my gaze moved to the guy who was standing beside Czar, his face was down in sorrow. Checking the look on his face, he was regretting selling Dixon off to me, but there was something about him that seemed like he was doing it for me to show mercy on Dixon instead.“Open the door,” I grumbled, my gaze shifted to the door, watching Czar drag the door open with a smile on his face.As I stepped into the dungeon, my eyes fell on Dixon. He was shackled to an iron chair, his body bare except for a pair of shorts. Blood streaked his torso, and I could see claw marks on his chest. He was broken, his eyes glazed over in defeat. I felt a surge of anger, but I forced myself to remain calm. I needed answers, and I would not let my rage get the better of me.I turned my gaze t

    Prescott's POV‘The captive, I think he has something to say to you, your Majesty.’I held my breath as I walked into the office building, my fist clenching and unclenching as I tried to control my outrage. Czar followed close behind, his presence like a shadow hanging over me. Alpha Randale’s words rang in my ears like a bell, the memory of them sharp and insistent.‘The captive said he didn't know the culprit's identity, but he was sure they were a royal warrior. He said they were dressed in an armour that has the nation's signature on it when they threatened him not to talk during the interrogation.’With each step I took, I felt my anxiety growing, until it felt like a lead weight in my stomach. I grumbled, my head was spinning as I walked down the hallway.‘Your Majesty, there's more. The captive said that the culprit was a rogue like himself. And he said he could sense Eruba's handmade tonic in their blood. One of the royal warriors is a rogue, your Majesty!’It was like my bra
