Prince Herod's POV Still As we approached the group of high-ranking where the Alpha of the Paxton pack was present, all discussion ceased and attention turned to us. I was acquainted with all standing here, I had my leadership and combat training with most of them. But strangely enough, Paxton's Alpha was unknown to me. When Walter introduced him to me until Walter introduced him. It all made sense then, he was an elderly man who clearly lacked the physical ability needed to be a competent pack leader. “My Prince,” he acknowledged my presence with a slight bow. “I'm Alpha Kendall Mendez of the Paxton pack.”As I shook his hand, I noticed a slight tremble that left me thinking why this man had not retired yet. He is placing an entire pack at risk, as an ambitious Alpha could quickly fight him for dominance and kill or enslave his pack members. In werewolf society, property and membership are linked to prestige; thus, Alphas tend to be more a
Prince Herod’s POV Again The aroma of delicious hot coffee invaded my nostrils, rousing me from a stressful slumber. Since Eden moved into my suite four days ago, I have hardly been able to close my eyes, sleep won’t come easy. The tossing and turning wears me more out, preventing me from getting any rest. It's her scent coupled with the image of her enticing body feverishly rocking beneath mine drives me wild with desire almost every night.The moment I shut my eyes, she became the center of all my dreams. Every night is a struggle to resist running into the guest room to make love to her. Even Xin is becoming weaker in resisting our mate, I often caught staring longingly at her with saliva dripping from his snout. The mate pull works heavy on us, we crave her, it's becoming too much to suppress. This is insane!"Eden!" I grunted, muffled by the pillows covering my face.But there was no answer, my mate left after placing my coffee on t
Again Prince Herod's POV As I approached the door of my suite and was about to put my finger on the scanner, I abruptly stopped in my tracks.From behind the door, Eden's voice resonates loudly, my mate is having a good time singing along with the music that echoes from the stereo. And it is not only the beautiful voice that alerted me but also the wonderful smell wafting over towards me. Today she came home early and was busy behind the stove.I think my mate has a surprise ready for me today. I glance down at the flowers in my hand, it looks like we both have plans to create an unforgettable evening. As she tries to hit a high note, I can't help but smile, she gives up halfway because her voice is failing her. She's probably more concentrated on preparing our meal than perfecting her vocal abilities. My hand reaches for the pocket in my jacket, double-checking that the ring is still there.And I opened t
Once Again Prince Herod's POV “Yes, you can,” I assured her while my hands caressed her long legs.As the hot sparks shot over us like fireworks, I heard her gasp and hold her breath. My lips followed the path of my hands, she couldn't hold back a moan of pleasure. “Don't be afraid, it's custom-made, especially for you,” I chuckled. “It will fit perfectly, I know precisely how to make that happen.”When my hand reached her triangle, her breath hitched. Her legs naturally spread apart for me to have easier access to her neatly shaved pussy. I first softly plucked her sensitive nub before inserting my thumb inside of her and making circular motions. “Ahh, Herod!” she moaned in delight.I positioned my arm beneath her hips, drawing her closer to my face. As I dipped in, I let my mouth work its magic. With the fervor building inside her, my mate turned into a horny mess, fully enjoying the pleasure my tongue provided her. Her grip tightened
Once Again Prince Herod's POV With my arm draped around Eden's shoulders, I stood in front of the new tomb of her ex-mate. It's a gray day, but that hadn't stopped Paxton from walking out to bid their last farewell to their Delta. Eden is visibly struggling with this goodbye, but she has already emerged from her initial torrent of tears and appears more at ease now.Although there lingers a tinge of sorrow within her, it is offset by an overwhelming sense of gratitude that Elon had come into her life and that she could offer him a more respectful permanent resting place instead of being left alone in the woods of another pack. The Queen also traveled with us to Paxton, she could be seen positioned on the other side of Eden. Next to her are Eden's parents. Standing beside me are Taylor and Eugene.Cissy would have loved to attend the funeral, but Harad was insistent that she stay back. My sister-in-law is in her last weeks and he did not
Prince Herod's POV Still As I got off the Royal Jet, my eyes caught sight of Harad and Cissy waiting there.I observed my brother securely encircling his mate, recognizing once more the wonderful synergy they share. Walter was standing behind them, appearing much calmer than before. I made a mental note to inquire with Harad about Eon's progress report in hopes that he may ease some of their parents' anxiety.“Eden, you have been so courageous,” Harad praised my mate as he greeted her. “You are a strong woman, no wonder the Moon Goddess paired you with my equally strong brother. Please, leave the past behind you, a whole new happiness awaits you.”Eden received a hug from Cissy before being taken away. The Queen and Taylor accompanied them as they chatted their way towards the Limousine while I got into an SUV with the three men.“Walter, is everything in place?” I inquired anxiously. “This will be a surprise and I sincerely hope she appreciates it. Eden is an energeti
Prince Herod's POV AgainMy life feels like an endless celebration, I've never experienced such immense joy.In the mornings, I work next to Harad in the office and have gradually taken on the role of his Secretary. My brother is still struggling to officially give me that position, arguing that my work is actually fit for a future King. He continuously pressures me to take up my birthright and rule alongside him, however, it's not just my decision alone.My mate has dedicated herself completely to the construction of the medical facilities.Every day she is on site to monitor the progress, discuss the required materials with suppliers and then meet with the other women at Cissy’s. The future Queen now has absolute bed rest, but complains that she was often bored since all the work has been taken off her hands. Harad has strictly prohibited her from leaving their suite, so she no longer carries out royal duties.So, Katrina, Doron and Eden took on the responsibility of entertaining Ci
Again Prince Herod's POVSomething inside me shifted as I clasped Vashti's hand.As I scrunched up my face in confusion, an immediate question arose within me - what was happening here? There was an unsettling feeling resonating through me regarding Vashti; a sensation too reminiscent of the bond I shared with Xanne but lacking intensity. It felt more like a fleeting attraction than anything else.But that was beyond understanding, Eden is my mate and under no circumstances would I join a bond with multiple mates again. That experience was too traumatic to endure once more.“Welcome to the Palace, Vashti,” I greeted the woman formally.When I briefly studied her face, I didn't notice anything strange there, this was one-sided. Hastily releasing her hand, I drew Eden nearer and buried my nose into the nape of her neck. I immediately relax again, my mate is my best drug. To straighten out my strange behavior, I lovingly caressed her cheek.“You're working too hard, babe,” I whispered. “
