As I watched the soldiers training in the barracks, my mind couldn't help but wander to the recent developments between my sister, Nabita, and the vampire, Victor. It was quite unexpected, to say the least. I had always known Nabita to be a bit frivolous, but this newfound infatuation surprised me.Shrugging off my thoughts, I focused my attention on the task at hand – identifying any potential threats within our pack. Captain Rodgers, a loyal and capable leader, approached me with a respectful nod."Greetings, Queen Uriah," he greeted me warmly, his voice carrying a sense of authority and dedication.I returned his greeting with a nod, acknowledging his presence. "Captain Rodgers, I trust the training is progressing well?"He nodded, a proud glimmer in his eyes. "Indeed, Your Majesty. Our soldiers are disciplined and prepared for any challenge that may arise."I observed the soldiers with a discerning eye, searching for any signs of unusual behavior or hidden intentions.

As the days passed, I couldn't help but notice the growing bond between Nabita and Victor. Their connection, once hidden in stolen glances, had become more apparent to the pack.

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
