“I’m glad that you are back, Your Highness.” Aria bowed to show respect. “I’m glad to be back. I’ve been looking everywhere for you.” He tried to hug her but she pushed him away. “What are you doing?” she lowered her voice and asked him while peeking through her long lashes. Her face had turned red from the embarrassing incident. “Hmm…is everything okay?” Oscar's attention was on Aria because he suspected that something was wrong. “Where is Blaire?” she stretched her neck to see behind the two huge men standing in front of her. “Blaire? Is she here?” Dax scanned the quiet hallway with his eyes. “Oscar, please can you give us a minute?” Aria pleaded with a beautiful complimentary smile on her face. “That wouldn't be a problem,” Oscar curled his lips into a cute smile. He gave Dax a little tap on the shoulder before whistling away. “Why are you acting weird? Is it because of Oscar? Do you have a crush on him? Was that why you pushed me away when I tried to hug
Marcus stepped into his quarters and saw Dax and Oscar drinking in his bar. “Good thing you're here, Marcus.” Dax patted the open seat beside him so that he could sit by his side. “Who is in trouble this time?” Marcus asked sarcastically. He moved forward to join them in the bar. “The king is the one in trouble,” Oscar jokingly clamoured. He raised the bottle of whiskey in his hand and was about to refill Dax’s glass. “One or two shots?” he smirked. “Two shots, please,” Dax murmured. He and Oscar had been drinking for a while now.Marcus dragged the glass of whiskey from Dax and swallowed the liquor. He didn't want him to take another drop of alcohol. “What kind of trouble has overwhelmed my king that can't be taken care of?” Marcus playfully tapped Dax’s shoulder in an attempt to cheer him up. “I hate seeing you like this.” Marcus is more than an adviser to Dax. He sees him like a younger brother he never had. And because of this, he is willing to do anything possible to make Da
The Lunar Eclipse is a highly decorated ceremony that brings all the rulers of the four kingdoms in the Northern District together. This mandatory ceremony had been celebrated once in every single year by their ancestors from generation to generation and it has always been expected to end with the Sacred Blood Moon.Ragnarok, Dax’s kingdom, always hosts this event and during this time of the year, every preparation for the occasion is performed with extra care and a sense of responsibility, to please the moon goddess. “Open the door!” Matilda ordered.The authority of her voice echoed through the humongous hallway that leads to the King's quarters. “I am sorry my lady, but the king hasn't awakened from his respite.” One of the king’s guards objected respectfully. “He strictly ordered us not to let anyone inside without his permission.” “Are you deaf? I said open the door. Now!” Dax heard muffled voices coming from behind his entrance doors. He struggled to open his lazy e
“I married Aria, Blaire’s older sister.” “What?! If there’s anyone I hate more than that brat named Blaire, is her good-for-nothing sister!” Matilda screamed out, “I am doomed!” She threw her hands above her head. “A Sigma eloped with my son… What if she poisons him or sells him as a slave? Oh, moon goddess, what have I done that has made you decide to punish me in this manner?” She dropped to the floor and lamented woefully. “Why do you blame Blaire when your son is older than she is? He should be capable of taking care of himself… and if anything bad should happen to Blaire, I will make sure that he pays dearly.” Dax’s eyes emitted a dark energy that Matilda caught a glimpse of before he walked out of the door.He left his stepmother in his room and went out with the desire to clear his mind and come up with a brilliant solution that would help him persuade Aria to be his Luna again. He was willing to go to any extent to get her to accept his request. He pulled up the hoo
The moonlight cast an ethereal glow upon the thick forest as Dax treaded through the dense shrubs and towering oak trees. His heart weighed heavily with sorrow and longing for Aria, his beloved mate who had left him under mysterious circumstances. Determined to find her, he ventured deep into the wilderness, following the faint scent that lingered in the air.As Dax's searching footsteps echoed through the silence, a rustle in the foliage caught his attention. A figure emerged, silhouetted against the moonlit backdrop. "I had to be ten miles ahead of you, I don't think you're that fast buddy," Oscar bragged emerging from the thick shrubs to face Dax.Dax was shocked and couldn't believe his eyes, It seemed as if he was daydreaming "Oscar, how long have you been here?""As long as you've been trekking from the palace" He chuckled"Tell me what brought you here? I'm doing this all by myself I didn't remember asking for your help""You know what? You took the wrong route.""What??""Ar
As the first rays of dawn bathed the Lycan palace in a golden hue, Dax and Aria arrived, their footsteps echoing through the grand halls. The air crackled with anticipation and unease as they made their way towards the council chamber. The council members, composed of lower-ranked Lycans, had gathered to discuss matters of the werewolf clan.Whispers erupted like wildfire, spreading through the room like an gangrene. The council members huddled together, their eyes darting towards Aria with disapproving glances. The news of her arrival had reached their ears, and it stirred unrest within their ranks.Aria, with her head held high walked beside Dax. She felt the weight of their judgment but refused to let it deter her. She understood that her presence challenged the established norms and threatened the delicate balance of power within the pack.Dax, being the protector, stood resolute by her side. His gaze scanned the room, his senses attuned to the undercurrents of discontentment. He
It was a usual banquet at the large dinning hall of the Northern Pack filled with the intoxicating aroma of roasted meats and hearty stews. The long, oak table stretched before them, lined with werewolves eagerly awaiting their meal. At the head of the table sat Dax, the pack's Alpha, his piercing gaze surveying his pack with authority. Sitting beside him was Oscar.As the pack enjoyed their meal, Oscar's voice boomed throughout the hall, capturing everyone's attention. "My brothers and sisters," he began, his voice carrying the weight of command. "We have faced numerous challenges in defending our territory from the relentless Vagaries. They grow bolder with each passing moon, and it is time we take decisive action."Dax nodded, his gaze fixed on Oscar. "What do you propose?" he asked, his voice filled with anticipation.Oscar's eyes gleamed with determination. "I think we could hire more mercenaries," he declared. "Experienced fighters who will bolster our ranks and aid us in th
Moments later, a messenger rushed into the Dax his face etched with urgency. "Alpha, your stepbrother has indeed returned to our territory, and there are indications that he has aligned himself with the Vageries. We need to act swiftly."Dax's grip tightened on his sword"We need to locate him and assess the threat he poses. This could be our chance to strike a decisive blow against the Vageries if we act with precision."The pack members exchanged glances, a mixture of fear and resolve evident in their eyes. As the scouting party set out, the night air thickened with anticipation, leaving the pack and their fate hanging in the balance.Under the pale light of the moon, the scouting party ventured into the depths of the forest, their senses heightened, and their every step careful. The pack's survival depended on uncovering the truth behind Dax's stepbrothers motive and neutralizing the threat of the Vageries.As they prowled through the tall towering oak trees, a chilling howl pierc
The two spent the long night in each other's arms away from the world. They profused their love to each other and realized sooner that they were deeply in love with each other.Blaire and Oscar decided it was better for both if them to relocate to another pack and watch out for themselves.Aria heard the news and was so happy for her sister. She felt happy that her sister finally found love despite how hard and rocky she had always proven to be. Wow. It was really thing of Joy. Aria got better and was back on her feet again, shunning the council and correcting every wrong they did. They felt she had come again to make things worst and impossible for them. Aria saved a young maiden and they reported her before the king saying she should mind her business and not poke into other people's matter as she had no idea how it has been running since she left. The king saw it as an insult and asked Marcus to go give them a notice to drop whatever positions they had and dismiss the council or
As if hearing her thoughts, both of his hands began to carelessly roam around her body. "Oh" Blaire hissed when he grabbed her nipples through her dress and between his thumb and index finger and began to kneed them.Her chest tightened as warmth pooled into my tummy. Her underwear dampened. Oh Goddess, he made her want to sin.With the way his fingers kept playing with her nipples, it felt really hard to keep quiet. So, no one could blame her for the little slip up she made when he pinched down hard on her sensitive nub."Ah" Blaire moaned a little hard quiet. Her heart throbbed wildly and her body was on fire.He grabbed her neck pulling her closer to him as if thet weren't close enough. "You don't know how much I've waited for this day" he said into Blaire's ear. His wet tongue licking the shell of her ear and her body began to shiver.Her face was twisted in pleasure and the sound of her breathy moans echoed in the room. He pushed her to the bed and as sge laid there, his eyes
"Oscar you can talk to me, What's the issue? Come on. Talk to me please." She begged squinting her eyes.Oscar stared at her meekly and laughed in his head, she felt so awkward trying to get words out of his mouth. He smiled at her innocence, yes, this was his opportunity. He didn't say anything and just walked inside the house trying to give her a hard time. He wanted to see how she was really going to make him talk to her. Blaire rolled her eyes and scrunched her nose at Oscar's childishness. He is actually behaving like a child and throwing tantrums. Jeez, she really had a lot of work to do as he seem to be stressing her necessary. "Oscar! Why are you walking away from me?" She queried as she went after him. He just strolled into the room and removed his cloth that he was half naked as he walked into the kitchen. Blaire followed him and caught a glimpse of him entering the kitchen as she ran after him. He just ignored her and cotinyed peeling what he was doing. Blaire barged i
Oscar wasn't the one to joke around especially not with somebody like her. But it surprised her the more it dawned in her that Oscar would ever think if liking her in any way possible. She couldn't believe it and she wouldn't believe it or else he says it to her. She might just be mistaking his kind gesture as feelings, she knew he was a kind person but she still doubts if this was the part of the kindness or his charisma, it seemed to be something mutual and something else attached. The way he calls her name, looks at her or even smile at her just feels way too different than the usual Oscar. She had caught him countless times staring at her, most times she would just shy away. His stares always give her goosebumps and make her mind go wild, she would feel it on her body, his eyes fixated on her and he would drink and eat her thoroughly through them, not caring if she was uncomfortable with it or not.Maybe he was just being extra kind and nice towards her so she wouldn't feel the
It was on the tip of her tongue to ask 'why do you care' but she just adjusted herself on the chair and spoke more calmly instead."Well, I don't know yet. Why do you ask?" She said rather politely. "I just wanted to know, nothing much." He told her.Blaire could bet that his voice immediately sounded sad and the smile that was on his face soon vanished immediately she said it.She just shrugged and went back to eating. They ate and Blaire packed the plates while Oscar cleaned. They arranged and set up the house before going out to complete Blaire's punishment.The day ended with Oscar spending the night at Blaire's home. They didn't talk much and just slept. Next day, Oscar got up very early to make breakfast for them. He became the default cook since yesterday and he had been doing his job really perfect. He slept on the couch in the other room while Blaire slept on the bed in her and Aria's room. The most amazing thing about yesterday was that Oscar had helped her in clearing s
Blaire looked up to see a concerned Oscar who was hovering above her.She didn't give a reply and Oscar asked again. She just nodded her head as if saying she was fine and didn't want any help or charity from him.She ignored him and turned to pick her labor tool to continue her work. Oscar felt angry for daring too much for somebody who didnt even feed the need to respect and love once people. He move to where he was during and continued watching her, cutting. Blaire was clearing the bush with all the strength and energy she could muster, she was too exhausted and she sat down at intervals every time? Even though her belly growled angrily and unpleasant to the hearing, Blaire still continued clearing, she wished she could stop and eat as her tummy growled so many times while she was working. Oscar noticed the discomfort all the while she was clearing and he had fought a very strong battle with himself, trying so hard to resist the urge of running to her to assist her. He kept his
Aria hissed with irritation as she heard their voices. Ignoring them she picked Blaire and this time they surrounded her more protecting her sister from the ground and wrapped her arms protectively around her. She had really missed Blaire and she didn't hesitate to show it."Blaire? How have you been? We haven't heard from you in a really long while Blaire. Why? Why did you just disappear." Aria questioned worriedly.Blaire didn't give her an answer as she didn't know what to say. She just felt so ashamed of herself that she couldn't even speak to Aria.Aria still loved her sister and would go to any length just to keep her. She wasn't holding grudges against Blaire because of what she had done. She was just angry at her for a while which died down soon she started missing and longing for her because she was missing. Aria wasn't that kind if person to hold grudges and that's why Blaire had always blackmailed her. Her emotions give way to her so soon and it made people trample on he
Sarah didn't even hesitate to run all the way to the palace that night after waking up to the disappearance of both Oscar and Aria. She almost collapsed when the news got to her that Oscar had brought Aria to the palace dripping with blood and sweat. She couldn't believe that Blaire would want to kill her own sister because she was so selfish and couldn't live with the progress of her own sister. She felt angry and she had seen the sisters and seen how much Aria had sacrificed and was even willing to sacrifice for Blaire but Blaire had paid her back like this. She felt terribly angry that she wished she could strangle Blaire with her own eyes. She visited Aria when she was recovering and didn't make her feel the absence of her presence as she was also always there. Aria couldn't thank the GODDESS enough, if there was any thing that she should give thanks for then it would be the privilege of having the right people in her circle. People who could go all the way for her. She just fe
Her eyes buldged out when she saw Blaire's face after Oscar had removed the mask. "Blaire! What? Blaire is that you?" She questioned still shocked to the bones. She couldn't believe her sister could be so mean to do that to her. She had always loved Blaire and she showed every opportunity she had. Even after regaining her memory and knowing Blaire was treating her bad because she married Dax after Blaire had eloped, She didn't take it to heart. She didn't even hold any grudge whatsoever against Blaire.But now she had crossed the line by planning to kill her only sister for her own selfish reasons.Aria hardly got the chance to think further as the flashing of cold metal disrupted her thoughts. She looked up to see Oscar and her sister dodging each other's sword fiercely. Terrified she begged Oscar to stop so he'd not injure her sister."Oscar, stop it. Stop fighting with her. Oscar!!" She screamed but everything fell on deaf ears as the two continued. As she saw Oscar gaining the
