Nova’s POV

My dear Queen Nova,

I know that our marriage has not been a definitive one, nor has it been one of love. I am not a man who knows how to love, and I have never loved anyone before. All I have known is friendship, and I always thought that was enough for me. But then, I brought you into my life, which somehow changed everything.

I never thought I would someday regret my actions, nor have I ever thought I would one day say this to anyone, but I regret ever making you be in a marriage against your will.

I never realized how much I was hurting you, because you had never said a word, never once complained. But when you hugged me that day in front of your father's building, and when you wrapped your arms around my neck in my apartment, I thought maybe there was something more between us. I never realized that it was just your way of showing your gratitude. I'm so sorry, I should have seen how my actions were affecting you.

Please don't blame yourself for what happened in there.

    Prescott’s POV The cars pulled to a halt in front of the building, The door opened from the outside and I stepped down from the car.I stared at the guards who had lined up in front of the building with a weak smile on my face.“Greetings to His Majesty, our acclaimed King!” they all chanted and I felt the smile on my face grow wilder, spreading across my face.“Greetings.” I smiled, giving them my sincere smile as their arms crossed over their chests in greetings.I turned around to see my men had already stepped down from the car and the car had been driven away from the entrance.“Take that file to my bed chamber,” I said to the nearest person to me.“Yes, Your Majesty!” he bowed before walking away to deliver the message.“Prescott!” I heard that cheerful voice of Ulrica, calling out to me her voice echoed through the corridor and I felt the corner of my lips curved into a smirk.I moved my gaze away from the guards to the royal building, there she was, running towards me as if h

    Nova’s POV Tears welled up in my eyes as I quietly walked down the foyer. My legs felt light, my entire body felt heavy and it seemed like I was going to fall down on my knees any moment from now.‘I don't have anything to say to you, please leave.’ Prescott's words to me kept replaying in my head and I couldn't do anything to stop my mind from repeating those hurtful words.Why did he do that? Did he really not want to see me again? Did I make the wrong choice by coming here?“No! I didn't make the wrong choice,” I shook my head, “coming back is the right choice I could ever make.” I sniffed, tears rolled down my eyes as I kept walking aimlessly to the building I shared with His Majesty.I couldn't call it “Ours” because it was more like I was the only one staying in the building. Ever since the coronation, Prescott had never slept in the building that it would make sense if I could just call it my building.I kept on walking with my thoughts on Prescott whom I had gravely sinned a

    Nova’s POV The chiming of the bell woke me up from my slumber, hoping to the goddess it was his Majesty that was at the door. After staying awake all night, in the King’s hall, waiting for the man who never come back home. I raised my head, staring at the wall clock to see that it was already 6:30 a.m., in the morning.I rolled out of the king size bed and hurriedly slid my feet into the flip-flop. I tried to calm my self but my heart was throbbing with joy.“Finally, his Majesty is here! I will finally get to explain myself to him!” I exclaimed as I raced to get the door.My hand curled around the doorknob, I took a deep breath before twisting the door open. I gulped down nervously as I opened the door for him, my eyes shut on its own as I opened the door wild. “Good morning, your Highness!” Instead of the baritone voice of his Majesty, I heard the cheerful voice of Anika and I flung my eyes opened as realization dawned on me.My eyes widened in both disappointment and shock as I s

    Prescott’s POV Sitting behind my office desk with my palm on my chest, gently caressing the part that got stabbed with that poisoned dagger. “Ummm,” I let out a painful moan as my fingers softly pressed on the wound that was still covered with plaster. I hadn't completely healed from the wound because of the poison that was used on the dagger and the thought about the person behind it made me want to demolish the pack. The corner of my mouth curved into a smirk as the scene replayed in my head. The grin on the first daughter's face as she plucked the dagger into my chest made me wish I had killed her on the spot, right there in front of Nova whom she had talked into rebelling against me.But then again, what will Nova say about me? Wouldn't that prove her right that I was truly a beast she had accused me of being?I let in a drag of air as my mind drifted off to Nova and I wondered how she was doing. Was she busy resenting me? Or has she moved on with her life?I couldn't stop ques

I might be a Princess from a glorious pack, but I could hardly mention five to six packs in the nation.I tightened my grip on the pen as I approved the proposal of the underdeveloped pack that was asking for the King’s support on the development of the pack.Hours on the case files and I hadn't seen anyone who didn't require His Majesty's help I wondered if I was doing the right thing by approving every request without pending or rejecting any.Who knows, they might be in dire need of help and it would make me a bad Queen if I reject the pack's request.“...and the last paper!” I grinned wildly when I signed the last file, I lifted it to my face and smacked my lips on it, giving it a grateful kiss.I gathered all the files and placed them gently on the table, It wasn't a big deal working on the case files from different packs, but reading through the report be

    Nova’s POV My hands clenched to my sides as I entered the royal kitchen. My mind was on the lady and I didn't know why I was heading to the royal kitchen when I should be heading back to the King’s hall.I could still hear the sound of the slap, echoing in my head. I took a deep breath before entering the kitchen to see Anika writing down something on a note.“Your Highness!” she paused whatever she was doing when she felt my presence. Her eyes widened in shock when she realized it was truly me, the Queen, who had just entered the kitchen.I sighed, before walking over to the table set and sat down on the stool, while staring at the freshly cut vegetables on the counter.“Anika,” I paused, staring at the covered pots on the cookstove.“Yes, Your Highness!” she walked over to me and stood right in front of me with the note in her hand.“Do you…” I trailed off, thinking of a better way to lay out my questions. “Do you by any chance serve His Majesty separately?

A sense of relief washed over me when I walked deeper into the office and no one was in sight, not even the King himself.I shouldn't be seen in this place when His Majesty was not here, but I couldn't just go back without delivering Her Highness's letter.Everyone in the Villa was conscious of the beef between the King and the Queen and the only thing I could do to help her Highness was to help deliver whatever she wrote in the letter.I held on tightly to the letter as I made my way to the office table, I carefully dropped the letter on top of the piles of files that lay carelessly on the table. I turned around to walk out of the office, but then, I felt a presence outside of the office.Was that his Majesty? I felt my jaw dropped in shock as I glared hard at the door.I made to hide under the table, but it was too late because the door twisted open before I could bend over to hide.

The chillies coming from the fountain made the air on my skin stand.What if His Majesty received my letter and decided not to come? What if he didn't even read my letter? What if I got him provoked with my letter? What if… Just what if?My heart tightened at the thought of what His Majesty might do after receiving my letter kept lingering in my mind. I couldn't help but be negative with my thoughts since he didn't even want to see me, Disposing of my letter won't be a problem for him, would it?I absent-mindedly stretched out my hand, collecting water from the fountain with my palm while waiting for Rezso. My heart hammered against my chest as I heard his footsteps approaching.I hastily poured out the water on my palm and wiped my hand on my dress. I had a quick bath after Rezso left.I didn't want His Majesty to meet me in that dress I had been wearing since Daybreak, so I hastily took a bath and changed in

    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.

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
