Prince Harad’s POV AgainIf the situation wasn't so dire, I would have joyfully observed the soap unfolding before me for hours. As if burned, Walter pulled his hand away from Xanne's neck and stared at the frightening display of magic in terror. The flames, which were growing stronger by the minute, seemed to be intended to scare us off - we were meant to flee for our lives. But Surprisingly, we were completely unaffected by the heat, it felt akin to observing a magnificent fireworks display during an end of the year festivity. Herod and the Alpha watched it all with amusement with their hands on their sides. "Only now the show is about to start,” chuckled the Alpha next to me. “I hope my Luna doesn't forget to entertain us a little.”As I directed my gaze towards Luna Faith, she once again shifted and became the stunning White Wolf, adorned with a dazzling ring of gold that encircled one eye. Sara tried to stand on her
Alpha Female Ciciane’s POVStanding on my toes, I impatiently wait for the Jet to arrive.Today, it seems to take a lot more time to fly between Silver Bow and the Kingdom. My firstborn is arriving, I can't wait to finally hold my son in my arms and tell him how much I love him. I wonder how I managed to live without him all this time, he is the loss in my family. Although I have completely forgiven Doron, I still cannot imagine that she could have deceived me like that during the birth. At the time, my lack of experience and extreme exhaustion made it easy for her to conceal the third pup's cries. But now everything is fine, my son will be showered with an abundance of motherly love that he will not know what is happening to him. To be honest, I am still in disbelief that this has happened to me.Reading about the theft of pups in fictional novels always seemed too exaggerated and cheesy to me. However, being confronted with it in real
Prince Harad’s POV Cissy has a firm grasp on her firstborn, there is no way she will give him back to me.As she whispers all kinds of sweet nothings to him, he stares at her as if he understands every word that comes out of his mother's mouth. Every now and then he offers her an affectionate smile, swelling his mother's heart with joy. When I look around, I observe that the King has substantially enhanced our security measures.Despite having already captured Xanne and Arbel, no chances are being taken. An ominous line of SUVs with the most skilled Lycan fighters is standing by an advanced armored vehicle fitted with modern digital security tech. We all climb into the waiting luxurious limousine.Luna Faith takes one of the boys from me, so I have an arm free to put over Cissy's shoulders. I know she wants to make up for lost time with the firstborn, feeling like she has let him down in comparison with his siblings. Cal
Again Prince Harad’s POV “Father, we have to go to the Sages,” I pointed out to the King. “I wanted to handle this situation on my own and spare you any unnecessary drama, but in my wildest dreams, I couldn't imagine Xanne would go so far as kidnapping my son. Sage Nicolas alerted me earlier about a hybrid Princess who would try infiltrating the Royal family and make an impact.” On hearing this, an unmatched anger appeared on the King's face. His entire face turned red up to his ears and his hands trembled slightly. He gazed at me with wide eyes in speechless disbelief for a moment. “And why am I just finding out about this now?!” he bellowed. “And we allowed her into the Palace and put the future Queen and her pups at risk! Are you brain-dead, Harad? Couldn't you have foreseen what could happen?" Alpha Remus placed a hand on his shoulders as my mother rushed to wrap her arms around his neck. Herod came to stand next to me, perhaps sca
Prince Harad’s POV againWhen we arrived at the Sages' office, we found them already awaiting us.The fact that these Sages usually strictly adhere to the protocols of the Kingdom, this behavior underscores the immense importance of the subject of our meeting. “Your Majesties,” they addressed us when we lined up in front of them. “Come on, let's go inside. This conversation at hand required utmost secrecy. If the Kingdom were to catch wind of the matter, the Lycans might run amok. That could become untenable and we might have to sacrifice Xanne to save lives.” “No!” I protested. “Xanne must live. I can assure you that everyone present here considers the survival of our species as sacred. We need not worry about breaches in confidentiality." Every head confirmed their agreement with a nod. My gaze wandered and I spotted Walter standing at the back of the Alpha couple, appearing older and dispirited while his Lycan was stil
Crown Princess Ciciane's POV Out of nowhere, there is a flurry of commotion around me.A short while back, Luna Faith, Queen Rhea, Taylor, Katrina and Doron barged into my room, ushered me to the bathtub where they applied a generous amount of aromatic bath oil which left a lovely radiance on my skin. I'm neatly shaven, with freshly washed hair cascading down my back.And now I'm sitting in front of my dressing table in a bathrobe. The women around me are chatting animatedly, I can't make sense of it all. Despite asking them repeatedly the cause for their excitement, none of them seemed inclined to provide me with a straightforward answer. Eventually, I allowed them to proceed with their actions.Taylor is currently working on my makeup while the Queen and Luna sift through a stunning collection of dresses that have just been delivered to the door. I admire how exquisite and singular each design is and feel so grateful that they took suc
Crown Princess Ciciane's POV Again I walked alongside the Queen and Luna, making our way through the halls of the Palace while Doron and Katrina trailed behind us with my triplets snug in a stroller. While Taylor was busy preparing me, the two women took care of my pups and they are now lying in the push cart wearing identical clothing. “Where exactly are we going, mother?” I asked curiously. The secrecy of these women was nerve-wracking, I really needed to get answers. “To your mate, he is waiting impatiently,” she declared. "He only gave us thirty minutes to get you. Men tend to believe that it takes just as less effort and time for women as it does for them in making ourselves attractive." After riding the elevator down to the main floor, she led me towards the front entrance. As we stepped outside onto the veranda, a stunning vehicle decorated with balloons and flags was waiting there. The driver galla
Prince Harad's POV Gracious goodness! What an exquisite sight! My eyes are unable to fully grasp the magnificence before them.A woman of extraordinary beauty, dressed in white, glides elegantly across the red carpet towards the center stage. All eyes are fixated on her as she makes her way forward. Her luscious black locks flow around her face and fall over perfectly built bare shoulders and neckline. She is accompanied by two pups who beam from ear-to-ear while throwing pink petals at her feet.Pieces of lace from the ankle-long dress flutter over her round stomach. There is a golden glow around her appearance as if it's the Moon Goddess herself leading her to the grand stage. As she draws near, her gaze locks onto mine with an intense focus.The packed hall, which a few minutes ago was bursting at the seams with unbridled energy and had fallen into total chaos, now hangs in a hush. All souls are transfi
