Crown Princess Ciciane's POV AgainLoud clapping filled the courtroom."Brilliant effort, Cissy." Eon stared at me, grinning in amusement. What escaped his attention was the hint of menace that flickered across the faces of the King and Queen while the Alpha displayed clear feelings of irritation.The high rankings were seething with rage, they were all aware that my selfless act came at a tremendous cost. Giving up my home to a third party with no affinity for Eclipse Howlers takes an immense force of will. But I am willing to sacrifice all I own for the happiness of my family. But unfortunately, Eon is intent on making me suffer ceaselessly."Crown Princess, have you thought this through?" Alpha besought Remus with a furrowed brow. "The expanse of land and structures of Eclipse Howlers are of inestimable value, worth millions of dollars. Once you alienate it, there is no going back, they can never be reclaimed.” He stared at me in disbelief, my offer was far beyond what he had initi
Crown Princess Ciciane's POV Once More “Any idea why Eon is insisting on the mate bond between you?"As soon as my mate posed this sly question, I became acutely aware and suspicious. He was up to something and before I am able to figure out what it, I must stall giving a definitive response.At this moment, we are strolling through the Palace corridors hand in hand. We just had dinner with the whole family and now we are retiring to our quarters. Our interactions were lighthearted as Harad attempted to coax a confession out of me. But I know how to play this game like no other, my female intuition is much sharper than the Lycan male intrigues.“Perhaps he wants to compete with my irresistible mate?” I conveyed this to him. “Or because I produce such exquisite pups?”“Hmmm, that could be very possible, there is music in your options,” he pondered. “Eon has always coveted what is mine, this is the perfect chance for him to get revenge after losing out to me for so long.
Crown Princess Ciciane's POV Still When we arrived at the prison, Walter was already waiting impatiently for us with his hands deep in his pockets. He paced restlessly back and forth while a visible frown adorned his forehead, mumbling various things under his breath. Relief washed over him as he saw the car approaching.He ran to the door, flung it wide open and offered me his hand to help me exit. “Cissy, Eon suddenly wants to talk to you,” he explained. “Do you know what it's about? The guard said that Sage Nicolas visited him half an hour ago and after he left, Eon became extremely agitated. The Sage must have said something to him that inflamed his anger.” I shook my head in the negative.“It's best to hear him out and talk to the Sage later,” I suggested. "When you took Eon out of the courtroom a few hours ago, he acted confident. It is possible that something significant occurred during his discussion with the Sage for him to contact me urgently." The three
Still Crown Princess Ciciane's POV"So, Eon finally accepted your rejection," Harad breathed a sigh of triumph. "Perfect!"“Yes! But I would still like to know what Sage Nicolas discussed with him that made him change his mind so quickly,” I mused as I snuggled against my mate's chest. Immediately after I returned from prison, I hurried to Harad's office to share some good news with him. For a long time, I had been hesitant about rejecting Eon but today it proved an advantageous bargaining chip in persuading him to accept as one of the conditions attached to my proposal. Harad and I can now continue our mating process under optimal circumstances. We are no longer hindered by the threat of multiple mates that could have seriously jeopardized our love. We are now free to mark each other and then live happily ever after with our little family. I enjoy the sensation of his gentle hands caressing my back and purr like a satisfied cat. Here is where I belong
Crown Princess Ciciane's POV StillThe Kingdom is abuzz with activity.The Palace and all other buildings are lavishly decorated, the Lycans talk about nothing other than the coming memorable moment when the Royal Princes will finally be named. The Name Giving ceremony will take place In just a couple of hours, and there have even been organized bets on the names. Many have observed the Royal family tree of ancestors to create their own combination of names and invested heavily in it.My three little Princes are currently four months old and are brimming with energy. They are happy little ones who frequently make public appearances as Harad and I often take them with us when we perform our Royal duties. These cute little ones steal the spotlight wherever they go, journalists closely follow their growth and development, extensively reporting on every new babble or detail to the werewolf community worldwide. It's no surprise that their play area is constantly stocked up, packages arrive
Crown Princess Ciciane's POV AgainThe hall erupted in cheering as I walked on stage holding hands with the Queen.With a wide grin and extended arm, Harad strode over to me. After his mother placed my hand in his, he greeted me with a gentle embrace before escorting me to where the Sages were gathered at an extensive glass table. “Future Queen, the Kingdom is deeply grateful to you for securing our leadership for centuries to come,” Sage Nicolas stated solemnly. “You not only delivered the little Crown Prince but also provided us with some bonuses.” Laughter erupted among those in attendance, and a variety of endearments were shouted my way. Feeling bashful, I glanced over at the beaming Harad before dropping my gaze to my toes. “Don't sell me short, Sage,” Harad now protested. “Give me some credit as well, please. Not everyone can produce triplets." The room exploded in another round of laughter before the Elder intervened to redirect attention back
Prince Herod's POVAfter Eon and Xanne's trial, I realized my presence in the Palace didn't mean much. All attention in the Kingdom was solely directed towards Harad and Cissy's romance, their future leaders, and my nephews have captured the entire werewolf community with their charm. Leaving me feeling like an extraneous fifth wheel hitched to their car.So I decided to retreat to Human Town to take care of my mental balance and gather myself.This multiple-mating was a tough ride, I need to get my act together. After informing my parents of my decision, I headed over to my brother's quarters. I begged Katrina for a brief chance alone with the triplets and thankfully, she agreed. She knew I meant no harm, the three rascals were my heartbeat. But I couldn't leave the Palace without saying goodbye to them properly, although deep in my heart I knew it wouldn't be long until we met each other again.When I stood at their crib, they just stared at me with their beautiful
Prince Herod's POV Still Although hesitant at first, Cissy's divine voice turned dedicated as she pronounced my name. I knew that after my departure, she was suffering from guilt for potentially creating distance between Harad and me. However, due to a lack of time on my end, I hadn't explained that our relationship was back on track, hopefully, Harad had provided her with the details regarding how much assistance I offered Silver Bow. “You bet I am the one!” I confidently exclaimed while stepping leisurely towards the stage and locking eyes with Cissy. Relief spread across her face as she didn't expect me to arrive on time. With a look of pure bliss, she hurried over to the stairs. "Herod! How happy I am to see you,” she exclaimed, wrapping her hands around my neck.Taking hold of my hand, she led me towards Harad and the Sages. When I reached my brother, we exchanged a tight bro-hug while the Sages nodde
