Xavier's POV: As Uriah and I looked to the future, I understood the weight of the challenges that lay ahead. And also her reason for doing what she does . The responsibility of protecting our pack and ensuring a bright future for our child rested on our shoulders. But I was filled with a renewed sense of purpose, knowing that with Uriah's strength and the unwavering commitment of our pack, we would face any trial head-on. "Uriah," I said, my voice filled with both love and determination, "our child will grow up surrounded by the love and support of our pack. They will know the strength that comes from unity and the power of a family bound by loyalty. And the can only happen when you listen to me " Uriah looked up at me, her eyes shining with under. "Yes, Xavier. Our child will know the beauty of a world shaped by love and unity. We will create a safe haven for them, a kingdom where darkness cannot thrive. I will try and listen to you " *** Many days and weeks have passed aft
Nabitha POV: I sat on my throne, my mind focused on the next move in my plan to solidify my power. Suddenly, my spy, a trusted member of my pack, entered the room with urgency in their eyes. I raised an eyebrow, sensing that they had important news to share. "What is it?" I asked, my voice laced with impatience. The spy approached and whispered into my ear, their voice barely audible. "Alpha Nabitha, I have gathered valuable information. It seems that Luna Uriah is pregnant." My heart skipped a beat at the revelation. A smile tugged at the corners of my lips as I realized the implications of this news. Uriah's weakened state during her pregnancy would be the perfect opportunity for me to strike and remove her as a threat once and for all. Suppressing my excitement, I maintained a composed facade and nodded. "Thank you for bringing this information to me. Leave us now." As the spy exited the room, I wasted no time. I summoned my elders and alpha allies, knowing that the
Nabitha’s POV: “I knew my plan was falling apart but I also knew this could also be the best thing to do. Good thing I had my backup plan in motion. I looked around and saw that Victor was not present and smiled . My dear sisters love would not save her? This was a joke. I struck with precision, aiming for his weakness. As my claws found their mark, Xavier staggered, a cry silently as pain escaping his lips. He fought on, his resilience admirable, but I knew his strength was not waning. With one final strike, I overpowered him , knocking him to the ground. I stood over him, triumphant, my chest heaving with exertion. The battle was over. Xavier's reign had come to an end. As I surveyed the aftermath of the battle, a mix of emotions washed over me. Victory was sweet, but it was tinged with a hint of remorse. I had accomplished what I set out to do, but at a great cost. “The Lycan king is just so so” I said with a scoff and was about to leave when Xavier whom I
Xavier POV:As I raced through the forest, a sense of urgency fueled my every step. The mere thought sent a surge of anger and fear coursing through my veins. But what gripped my heart even more was the knowledge that Uriah, my beloved Luna, was pregnant and she might get hurt.The forest blurred past me as I sprinted, my instincts honed on finding her, on protecting our unborn child. Every fiber of my being screamed for me to reach her, to ensure her safety in this perilous time.Finally, the scent of my pack mingled with the familiar fragrance of Uriah's presence. I burst through the tree line, my eyes scanning the area, searching for any sign of her. And there, on the ground, lay Uriah, her form battered and broken. My heart clenched at the sight, a mixture of rage and despair surging within me.I knelt beside her, my hands trembling as I cradled her delicate frame. "Uriah," I whispered, my voice choked with emotion. "I'm here. I won't let anything harm you or our child."Her
Nabitha POV:As I stood surrounded by Xavier and his pack, my heart pounded with a mix of fear and defiance. But on my face, I showed no fear. They had finally caught up to me, but I refused to let them see my weakness. I stared back at Xavier, his eyes filled with determination, and a smirk played at the corner of my lips."Xavier, Xavier," I mocked, my voice dripping with disdain. "You think you have me cornered, but you underestimate my strength. I've always been one step ahead of you."Xavier's gaze hardened, his fists clenched at his sides. "Your reign of terror ends now, Nabitha. Your crimes will not go unpunished."I chuckled, a cold, derisive sound that echoed through the tense air. "Crimes? Oh, Xavier, you always had such a narrow view of the world. I did what needed to be done to ensure the survival and prosperity me"One of Xavier's pack members stepped forward, his eyes burning with anger. "You kidnapped Luna Uriah, attacked her, and left her for dead. How can you just
Uriah POV:The sound of my baby's gentle cooing filled the room as I carefully cradled her in my arms as I was still sore from giving birth. I had barely recovered from the injuries inflicted upon me by Nabitha when Xavier entered the room with a grave expression on his face."My love ," he said, his voice filled with concern. "There's something you need to know. Nabitha... she escaped."My heart skipped a beat as fear and anger surged through me. How could Nabitha have gotten away? I had hoped that after the battle, she would be defeated once and for all."What do you mean she escaped?" I asked, my voice trembling with a mixture of unspeakable emotions. "We had her cornered. How did she manage to slip away?"Xavier sighed heavily, his gaze filled with remorse. "I underestimated her cunning and resourcefulness. She had a confidant named Victor who helped her retreat into the darkness of the forest. They vanished without a trace."I clenched my fists, my jaw set in determination.
Uriah POV: I've been days,The air inside the dimly lit room was heavy with tension as Xavier and I stood face to face. We had infiltrated Nabitha's rogue network, venturing deep into the lion's den, but something weighed heavily on Xavier's mind. His eyes held a mixture of concern and remorse, and I braced myself for the news he was about to deliver."Uriah," Xavier began, his voice gentle but tinged with sadness. "I have told you this earlier on , but I will say it again as I need you to understand. You shouldn't have come with me. You should have waited back at our pack for me to bring news about Nabitha's defeat."His words struck me like a cold gust of wind, cutting through my determination. Xavier's plea to wait felt like an admission of his worry for my safety, but it was too late for regrets now.I met his gaze with a cold, steely look. "Xavier, I understand your concern, but I couldn't just sit back and wait. Nabitha was once my family, and everything started with her
Xavier POV:The weight of the impending battle hung heavily on my shoulders as Uriah and I gathered our allies, finalizing our plans to expose Nabitha's rogue alliance. The urgency in her voice reminded me of the danger we all faced, and the responsibility to protect our pack and the innocent lives at stake."Xavier, we need to ensure that our evidence is solid," Uriah said, her voice filled with determination. "We can't afford any doubt when we confront the other packs. They need to believe in the threat and join us."I nodded, fully aware of the gravity of the situation. "You're right, Uriah. We need concrete proof to convince the other packs. Let's gather all the information we have and cross-reference it to build an airtight case."Uriah's eyes sparkled with a mixture of relief and determination. "Thank you, Xavier. I know we can do this together."The room buzzed with tension as we worked alongside our allies, each contributing their expertise to the cause.As we reviewed the ga
Uriahs POV:After my intense confrontation with Alpha Denzer, the days that followed were surprisingly calm and peaceful – or at least as peaceful as they could be in such a grim situation. I had made a choice, a difficult one, to act like a devoted mate to Denzer for the sake of my son, Arion. While I couldn't bear the thought of being intimate with him, I had to keep up the act to keep my son safe.Denzer seemed to give me space, and I was grateful for that. He didn't push himself on me, and I took advantage of this by keeping my distance whenever he tried to be close. I always found an excuse or pretended to be occupied with some task, making sure there was a barrier between us at all times. It was a delicate balance, not too submissive, but not too rebellious either. I knew that the moment I resisted too much, it could endanger Arion's life.In the days that followed, I spent most of my time with Arion. Alpha Denzer allowed me to be with him, and I cherished every moment we ha
Xavier's POV:I immediately summoned the pack members and relayed my suspicions. "Anya might have acted through a proxy," I explained. "It's time we find out who might have helped her."Lucas and the others nodded in agreement, and the search took a new direction. We questioned every pack member, and it wasn't long before we found a lead—a young wolf who seemed nervous and evasive."Tell me the truth," I demanded, staring into the young wolf's eyes. "Did you have any involvement in Uriah's kidnapping?"His gaze shifted, and he hesitated before finally confessing. "Yes, Alpha. Anya coerced me into helping her. She threatened my family if I didn't do as she said."My heart sank, realizing that Anya's web of deception had ensnared others as well. "You will be forgiven if you cooperate fully," I said sternly. "Tell me everything you know about the kidnapping."He hesitated, fear still evident in his eyes, but he eventually provided valuable information. He revealed the location where Any
Xavier's POVI stood in my study, my mind focused on the task at hand. I needed to find Uriah, and to do that, I had to start from the beginning. My instincts told me that Anya had been hiding something, and I needed to confirm my suspicions."Beta Lucas," I called, my voice steady. Lucas was one of my most trusted advisors, and I knew I could rely on his judgment.He entered the room promptly, bowing respectfully. "Alpha Xavier, you called for me?""Yes," I replied, "I need you to gather a team of our best trackers and investigate the place where Uriah was last seen with Anya before she was kidnapped."Lucas furrowed his brow. "But Anya claimed that Uriah willingly left with Alpha Denzer on her own."I fixed him with a cold look. "Anya had hidden herself and her ambitions very well. She wouldn't make up a story about Uriah leaving of her own free will with Alpha Denzer."Lucas hesitated for a moment, then nodded in understanding. "You're right, Alpha. I apologize for being short-sigh
Xavier's POV:After the party celebrating Alex's first birthday, the little one was sent back to his room with the help of his nanny. Meanwhile, the elders, including Anya, and I had gathered for a small gathering. Food and drinks were brought out, but no one dared to bring up Uriah's missing issue. They all knew my temper, and they didn't want to risk annoying me further.As I took a seat at the table, the elders greeted me warmly. "Alpha Xavier, it's good to see you join us," one elder said with a smile."Yes, it's been a while since we all gathered like this," added another elder."I'm glad we can come together and celebrate," I replied, trying my best to appear relaxed.Anya, sitting next to me, chimed in, "Indeed, it's a joyous occasion. Baby Alex's first birthday is a momentous event for the pack."Another elder raised his glass and said, "To the future of our pack and to the health and happiness of our young Alpha."We all clinked our glasses together, toasting to the well-
Xavier's POV: As the days stretched on, the search parties scoured the forests and neighboring territories tirelessly. We followed every lead and pursued every possible clue, but Uriah seemed to have vanished from the face of the earth. Then, one day, as I was contemplating our next move in the study, I received a message that Anya wanted to see me again. This time, I rushed to her room with a mix of hope and anxiety. Upon entering, I saw her lying on the bed, her face still pale and her eyes red from crying. I approached her cautiously, unsure of what to expect. "Anya," I said gently, "how are you feeling?" She looked up at me, her expression filled with sorrow and regret. Tears welled up in her eyes, and she began to apologize profusely. "Alpha Xavier, I'm so sorry. I betrayed your trust, and I couldn't protect Uriah," Anya begged. “It's okay,” I said with a calm look as I looked at her . “I am suppose to protect this pack. But all that I have done is cause pains. I'm no
Xavier's POV:Days turned into weeks, and the search for Uriah seemed to be fruitless. Every lead we pursued turned out to be a dead end, and my heart sank with each passing day. Anya remained in a coma, and she was the only person who could shed light on what exactly happened in the forest that fateful night.One day, as I was discussing some ideas with the pack's scouts on how to track Uriah, I received urgent news that Anya had awakened. I hurriedly left the study room and rushed straight to Anya's room.When I entered, I saw her lying on the bed, her face pale and her eyes filled with tears. My heart softened at the sight of her vulnerability, but I pushed away my emotions, focusing on the urgency of the situation."Anya," I said coldly, trying to hide my own turmoil, "what were you doing in the forest that day with Uriah?"Tears streamed down Anya's face, and she began to beg for forgiveness. But I couldn't afford to be swayed by emotions. I needed answers.She stammered, "Uriah.
Xavier's POV:After the devastating encounter with Alpha Denzer and the truth revealed by Anya, I knew I couldn't face this alone. The burden of finding our son and protecting Uriah from further harm was too great. I needed the wisdom and counsel of our elders and betas. Gathering them in the pack's meeting hall, I laid out the situation, my voice filled with determination and sorrow."I called you all here because we face a grave crisis. Arion has been taken from us, and Uriah is in pain beyond measure. I need your advice on how we can handle this situation and bring our son back home safely," I said, looking into the eyes of my pack members, hoping to find some guidance.The elders and betas exchanged glances, understanding the severity of the situation. After a moment of silence, Beta Elias stepped forward, his voice firm yet compassionate."Alpha Xavier, we stand with you and Luna Uriah during this difficult time. We shall do everything in our power to find Arion and put an end
Alpha Denzer's POV:Luna's defiant words lingered in my mind as I left her to stew in the darkness. "I will never be yours, Alpha Denzer. My heart belongs to Xavier, and I will fight you until my last breath." Oh, how she tried to resist. It amused me to see her struggle, but she had no idea of the depths of my determination.A week had passed since I last visited her. It was time to remind her of her precarious situation and the consequences of defying me. As I entered the dimly lit room, her fierce gaze met mine, but I could sense the fear hidden beneath her anger. Perfect."Where is my son? What have you done with him?" she demanded, her voice wavering just enough to betray her uncertainty.I took a step closer, relishing the opportunity to toy with her emotions. Gripping her chin firmly, I replied, "You should watch that mouth of yours, Luna. You're in no position to make demands."Her eyes burned with hatred, and I felt a rush of excitement at the challenge she presented. "Tell m
Uriahs POV:But my hope was short-lived when I discovered that the opening led to another part of the palace, heavily guarded by Alpha Denzer's most loyal and vicious betas.I knew attempting to escape through that passage would be suicidal, but I couldn't give up. I needed to find a way to get to Arion and break free from this nightmarish prison.Each day, I observed the movements of the guards, searching for any weakness or vulnerability that I could exploit. I had to be patient, calculating, and seize the right opportunity.One night, the perfect moment presented itself. A guard left his post momentarily to attend to something, leaving a small window of opportunity.I sprang into action, my heart pounding in my chest. I moved as quietly as a shadow, slipping past the remaining guards, and making my way towards where Arion was being kept.But fate had other plans for me. Just as I was about to reach my son, a strong hand gripped my arm, pulling me back into the darkness."Did you re
