Prince Harad's POV AgainI stared at the letter in my hands in disbelief.An invitation from the Council of Werewolves to appear as a witness tomorrow at the trial against Princess Cissy, a case initiated by Xanne! The complaint reads: attempted murder and insulting of the Royal Princess. Moon Goddess!I scan the lines once more. No one had prepared me for this. The last time I spoke with my father, he mentioned that his investigation was ongoing and that the Council granted him a one-month extension. And here I receive this summons to appear in court, long before the deadline has expired. 'No!' Xan roared in my head. 'No one touches my mate! I swear to you, Harad, I'll kill them all. If the Council dares to sentence Cissy to death, they will experience my power. As my name is Xan, and with ancestors dating back to the creation of the earth!" I didn't expect a different reaction from him, X
Prince Harad's POV Once More The next morning, Cissy and I took care of the twins together.Cissy breastfeeds them after which I put them in a warm bath. Then we dress them and place both of them in a twin stroller. Once they had settled them, it was time for us to attend to ourselves by taking a shower and dressing appropriately for the hearing. We've just finished when there's a knock on the broken door. Chief Warrior Walter and his son Eon entered our suite.Fortunately, they don't ask any questions about my presence here. The state of the front door said it all.“Princess, we came to escort you to the trial. The Council is already complete and awaits your arrival in the great hall,” Walter stated formally. I walked next to Cissy with the twins, the two men behind us, to the main hall. It was already packed there, almost the entire Kingdom had come out to attend the court hearing. When we stepped inside, I saw four hig
Alpha Female Ciciane's POV I grabbed Harad’s hand, I was in danger of losing consciousness.A sharp pain flashed through my heart, I knew this all along but refused to believe it. Taylor tried to make me understand this, but I considered it impossible. The firstborn is mine. I gave birth to three pups that day, not two. Doron deceived me during the delivery and helped Xanne snatch my son! I feed off my mate's energy to keep myself going. How dare Xanne do this to me! The entire room is now in extreme commotion, everyone is talking at the same time. Some shifted out of sheer frustration and disbelief at hearing the course of the event that day in Eclipse Howlers. Those who earlier believed Xanne's accusations are now baring their fangs in hatred, furious that she was able to trick them. They are so ready to kill her at the next sight of her. "It was true all along!" I whispered, clutching my chest in agony. "And I thought
Prince Harad's POV I dashed down the steps of the Jet and walked briskly towards my host.Alpha Remus, the leader of Silver Bow, a strong pack both spiritually and physically, their true might have never been put to the test as no other packs have ever dared to challenge them. An ancient legend surrounds Silver Bow. It claims that the stronghold of dark magic once resided within this territory but was ultimately vanquished by Luna Faith, a white wolf. White wolves are known to be special creatures, believed to be personally guided by the Moon Goddess herself and possessing unbeatable abilities in battle. “Prince Harad”, the Alpha acknowledged my presence while his Beta also bows slightly to me in respect. "We extend our warmest welcome to you. Your presence is a great honor for us since it has been centuries since any member of royalty visited our pack." “Yes, but the circumstances of my vi
Prince Harad's POV StillThe hours that follow we dedicate ourselves to formulating plans and identifying areas that still need to be searched. The Alphas around the world are working diligently with us, even the witch covens are on alert. It seems that Xanne is now isolated. I wonder where she and Arbel can hide so well despite the countless wolves searching for them. It is almost impossible for them to leave Canada and America unnoticed, as the borders are closed, there is werewolf surveillance everywhere. "Let's grab a bite and take a break first, Harad. The new reports will be here tomorrow morning, which means another hectic day," Alpha Remus suggested with finality.“I suggest that after a few hours of sleep, you take advantage of our swimming pool to relax further. Or go for a run with your wolf, the pack knows of your presence here.” I decided to follow his advice.Once I was in my apartment, I made a video call to
Again Prince Harad's POVBarely had my wolf finished speaking when he sprinted in the direction of that overpowering scent.He raced along a fresh track, stripped of all reason. Xan couldn't think clearly now, all this beast was concerned about was finding the she-wolf and satisfying his lust for her. Desperately leaping over fallen trees and crushing shrubs beneath him, he continued racing on in a frenzy. ‘Xan, use your brains for once! We are already mated,’ I urged him to think clearly. 'Only unmated wolves can be seduced by a she-wolf in heat. And you're a Lycan, you should be able to withstand that with ease.’ He let out a low growl. 'Harad, shut up! All I know is that she belongs to me and I must have her. Where did she disappear?"I grimaced in acknowledgment that this scenario would inevitably lead to disaster. I was resolute in my stance against letting him betray Era, just like me, he knew that our mate would im
Prince Herod’s POV Harad pulled me into a tight bro-hug and after months I felt our bond as twins slipping back into place. We used to be so close, until it turned out that we had to share our mates which exposed distinct differences in our personalities.The mating proved to be unproductive for us.For years, we waited patiently. Despite our promiscuous affairs, we were sure that our mates were the only ones with whom we would share our lives permanently. However, when we finally met them, it turned out to be a complete disaster; sharing wasn't something that we had anticipated and it shattered us apart. But I am determined to fix things, especially since discovering Xanne's true nature. She has been nothing short of evil."Herod! I am so happy with your offer,” he expressed as he continued to embrace me. "I apologize for doubting you, this whole affair has clouded my ability to judge things properly.”I grabbed his shoulders and kept h
Prince Herod’s POV StillI am strolling at a leisurely pace on the exact same path that Harad walked along yesterday.I absolutely do not want Xanne and Arbel to find out that I am searching for them. Whatever happens tonight, I am well-prepared. To ensure my disguise as Harad is foolproof, I darkened my hair with a rinse. We are twins, most people can only tell us apart by the slightest difference in our hair color. I am aware that Xanne too often has trouble telling Harad and me apart and the darkness of the night won't help her either. And since I have sorted out the minor disparities, I must only be cautious not to slip up with words.When I am close to the area that Harad referred to as the Seal, I perceive rustling from a distance of several meters. I feel like there is someone nearby who's keeping an eye on me.I'm unsure of its gender at the moment, but I'm leaning towards it being female. As I wander along, occasionally pause to
