Laura's point of view: I do remember it all. I remember how it started and what was almost the end. I don't know how she did it, but she nailed it! I'm making my way home, to the place I built with the one who betrayed me. He is known as the first man to the wolf, but I used to recognize him as the love of my life. He did nothing but destroy everything we built together. He wanted me alone, away from the people I had. He blamed me for a betrayal I never committed. He killed Alan, who was like a brother to me. He made my sister hate me more than anyone in her life. The thing is, I still don't understand why she helped me. Perhaps all she wanted was really an apology, as she claimed. If that's the case, I'm not ready to take back my apology, even after knowing that I did nothing of what she claimed. Still, I feel something off about her. Why did she claim the book was here, and why did she need it when it wouldn't work for her? I'll investigate further, but for now! I have a ki
Laura's point of view: As Damien informed, the funeral took place in the palace. Basically, Selene's body wasn't found yet, only her head. I know I can discover it all in a matter of seconds. Yet, there's no fun in playing alone. That's why I'm not playing those games on my own. I have some friends that I'm pretty sure will enjoy the game with me. I look to my left side to see Selene's soul standing by my side, glaring at Damien's father's face. On the other side was Mery, glaring at the same man. Of course, no one but me was able to see them, but not for too long. The so-called Eeyore couldn't stop indirectly blaming me in his farewell words to his daughter. He was stating that his daughter was jealous of me because of my status, rank, beauty, and the fact that I was going to be Queen for sure. I would normally make him pay for such disrespect. Still, I know how it feels to lose someone you used to cherish. He's blaming not only me but also himself. He thinks that he should
Laura's point of view: The presence of a witch at the funeral attracted the attention of all who were present, which created the scene I was looking for. Whisperers and growls echoed as most of the wolves who were attending the funeral were not welcoming the idea of a witch among them, starting with Selene's father. "You are trespassing on our territory... You better leave now! " The Queen herself threatened, unaware of Safira's capabilities. "I'm not here for any trouble. I'm only here to say my farewell speech to a friend. " "My daughter would never befriend a witch!" Selene's father interrupted Safira's speech, which is not something I would advise anyone to try. "If you spent enough time with your only daughter, If you only knew who she was befriending, she might be still among you, and there would be no need for any funeral to be held." She scolded him in front of everyone, causing his face to turn as red as the r
Laura's point of view:The King is going to decide who he'll be leaving the crown to. For such a reason, Alan was called back to the palace. He'll be here in a matter of a few hours, right after the king decides who's going to be the next King. Damien wasn't doing well at all, and I think I know the reason. He didn't utter a word from the night before. On the other hand, he still did not believe what his parents were capable of. On the other hand, he was afraid that his father chose Alan over him. I know that I promised myself not to let any man in after what Andrew had done to me. Worse, I kind of see him in Damien. Still, I can't help seeing him that way. Perhaps it's the mate bond. Or just me falling again for the same type of man. I breathed in and out, then I decided to join him. I know I'm making a mistake right now, but I can't help myself but feel bad for him. I went right to our bed, in which he was laying his magnificent shirtless body. Then I joined him, laying my head on
Laura's point of view:Forty minutes ago, Alan was sitting in his room when I decided to knock on his door. He sensed my presence and opened his bedroom door before I even knocked. We hugged each other, then he started talking to me about how he was happy about finding his mate. The mate bond was playing in his favor, and he couldn't hide how much he was satisfied with it. Right after, I informed him that I had a gift for him. At first, he was expecting the gift to be something like news or anything like that, but that wasn't my gift. I got closer to him in a way that our faces were inches away from each other. Noticing that the distance between us had shortened, Alan jumped away from me. "I'm sorry, Laura. I care about you, but not in the way you think. I have a mate, and you have one too! You should be with him by now." I was kind of trying to be serious, to act seriously. Still, when he spoke that way, I burst out laughing. "My goodness! He thinks that my gift to him was a
Laura's point of view:I was standing before my reflection, becoming familiar with my old self for the first time.Red gowns were always my favorites. Still, something was missing. Perhaps a crown above my head.No worries, I'll have it in no time.As usual, Damien was in his office. Not the old one, but the new one.Ah, did I mention that we moved to the king and queen's suite, which was previously mine?I decided to make my way to my mate's office, then grabbed him and headed to the hall.He was so engrossed in some paperwork that he forgot about the coronation ceremony.Things went smoothly, and Damien's father and his mother handed us the throne, exhaustion evident on their faces.In short, they're going to leave the palace as it's their wish to start anew.Well, I doubt anything they do would fix their broken relationship.It's only a matter of time before both of them start looking for their own paths. Just when I thought the night was over, Amira showed up."What are you doing
Laura's point of view:Damien's parents have left the palace, and I can't help but feel relieved.The previous queen was no simple person. I couldn't get things done while she was around. It was never going to be easy.Now, I don't have any more time to waste playing childish games, so I started the real work.I sent both Amira and Alan on a mission to search for Andrew's body.It is a mission that might help them reconcile.Last I remember, Andrew's body was buried under my sacred lake.However, since I remembered who I am, I couldn't sense his presence. So I decided to take a look and see if his body is still where I remember it being.Indeed, when I swam down to the lake, his body wasn't there.If they have the body, then they only need the heart to bring him back to life.You might wonder who the 'they' are.Well, his followers.Andrew somehow found a way to infiltrate people's dreams, just like he used to do to me before I remembered who I am and blocked him out of my mind.He use
Laura's point of view: I woke up in the middle of the woods, alone, coughing up blood madly.I should have known that they were going to make a move. I should have been more careful.Although Damien was killed in the dream created by the witches, I believe that he's still alive for now.The thing is, I need to find him before it's too late.In fact, I'm not handing over Andrew's heart to the witches, no matter what. I can't help my mate by bringing the devil back. That would only be a waste of time since he'll die right after he wakes up.I forced my body up, only God knows how much I hate it when witches intrude on my dreams. It's always painful.I shifted back, making it back to my room precisely.I took a quick shower to clean my body from the blood and mud I acquired in the woods. The last thing I want is for everyone to ask questions about what's happening. I'm sure I will fix it all before anyone notices.I wore a gown similar to the one I was wearing before I left. Then I grabb
Laura's point of view: As I was done speaking to Avyanna, I immediately made my way back to New Orleans.I made sure that only the best of our enforcers were involved in this voyage to New Orleans.I wasn't planning to involve Damien, so I didn't tell him about the call from Avyanna nor what she told me about. Same goes for Amira and Alan.I wanted to get over with the mission as fast as possible, and be sure that both my daughters are safe.Perhaps, I’m over controlling as everyone claims, but if it’s all that I need to be to make sure that my twins get a safe life - then so I’ll be.Before the jet landed, I received the urgent information I requested about the so-called alpha Roger. I can gladly state that the information is good for nothing.Yet, what reason does he have to pursue my daughters, and even wish for my death?Could it just be that he is one of those stupid greedy alphas that dreams about taking the throne?Even if he is, he should be set as an example to anyone who da
Laura’s point of view: "I don't blame her for running… I would do the same if I were her!" Damien burst out with the words, and I felt angry at him.Instead of dealing with our kingdom's real issues, I'm locked here while trying to figure out where my daughters were.I have witches on my tail; vampires, and even traitorous wolves roaming around my kingdom, and instead of taking actions like true leaders, I’m here playing the role of the bad mother.Worse than that, my mate is not supportive of me. He thinks I’m quite paranoid by being overly controlling of everything.I would have gone too far to believe that he doesn't see things the way I do if he wasn't there with me through all the ups and downs I've been through.Sometimes, I wish I were just Laura, the mateless girl rejected by her alpha mate, and then my story ends.As for now, I seem to be fighting an endless war without having anyone on my side.Fun fact, when I first came to the Palace, I thought of Queen Sofia in the worst
Avyanna's point of view: She just shouted; the end stumped away from us, is she for real? Brandon seemed not to trust Roger's wolf, neither did I. I can’t say the same for Rebel. In no time, Brandon shifted to his wolf then went for a run. It was a sign that he was in no mood, and I kind of understood him. I have to say it again, foolishness runs in the blood of our family - it’s official. I mean, how could she be that dumb to trust someone she barely knows. I’ve seen his wolf, he is stronger than what he claimed. I doubt anyone could easily escape him. Anyway, since he wanted to play that game, I’ll be glad to play it with him. I closed my eyes while thinking about Luther, the only one that still can have a bit of control over Rebel, because the last I do remember was that she's really into the role of I am a queen and no one knows better than me. I closed my eyes, then called his name the same way Austin told me to do. Part of me didn't believe that the link would work. I
Roger's point of view:I might underestimate that Avyanna girl, but that is a mistake that will not happen again. I made a note in my mind about the importance of getting rid of her as soon as possible.As for now, and since I am already discovered, I needed to find a way to get myself out of this mess with less amount of damage.The moment Rebel spots me, her eyes were all in disbelief. In no time, she was making her way toward me.“Shift!” She ordered, and I did as I was told.In no time, I was in my human form, totally naked. Fun fact, I knew that I might find a piece of clothes somewhere near to me, but I didn’t care to find any.I wanted my future queen to see the difference between a real man and the fake one by her side.I kind of do not regret coming here, especially after that I learned that the Brandon guy isn’t a real deal in her life.Based on the argument they had - their entire engagement is nothing but an arranged one. She won’t be that hurt when I finish his life.Well,
Avyanna's point of view: Something doesn’t seem right. I tried to learn some few things about alpha Roger, but the thing was that I couldn’t find a thing about him. Firstly, it was because no one wanted to talk to me after what happened. Second, it was because there was indeed nothing about him. It all started when I saw my sister and Brandon leaving his office while arguing. As it seems, Brandon doesn’t seem to like him, nor trust him either. Fun fact, Rebel met him just one day, and she was willing to trust him. Well, it seems that foolishness wasn’t something related to only me. Our family has a huge history when it comes to foolishness. Anyway, what was suspicious was that he went after them without any of them noticing. I would normally follow all of them to see what’s happening. The thing was that no one was around me, and no one was in his office. So I would be too dumb if I missed such a chance. I slid inside his office after that I masked my scent. It was one of
Roger's point of view:I saw the look on her face when she knew what I was. I saw the fear that she had while looking deep into my eyes. Part of her didn't want to believe that the one standing in front of her is a true alpha. You might be wondering but a true alpha I can be. Well, you can tell that I am an alpha bloodline, but stronger than a normal alpha. Why? Well, that also can be explained. The more I kill the more I get stronger. It is always a matter of time before I started having all of whoever I killed. She knew that if I kill her right away, all her power, special gifts, and even title would belong to me. It's just that I'm not thinking of killing her at all. I do have some other plans for her. I am a great alpha, and I deserve a great mate. My destined mate was too weak and I don't deserve someone like her. The reason why I ended her life. I ended that weak human before any sort of bond can be created between both us. I can't deny it, I do have nightmare
Rebel's point of view:I didn’t know since when I was asleep, but it feels like forever. It is so comfy that I don’t want to wake up. Matter of fact, things don’t always go the way we want. My phone rang and I ignored it. Not when it rains again. Well, whoever it is that person is doomed to death. This is what I thought before I saw my mother’s number on the screen of my phone. I answered the call while trying to get myself ready for whatever she was preparing for me. After all, I did wrong when I decided to go against her and come here. Still, I won’t give up on my sister. I will not let her feel the loneliness that I grew up feeling years ago. I made my decision, and whatever result is waiting for me, I’m ready to take it. I answered my mom, and as expected, she was deadly worried and angry at both of me and Brandon. Not when I told her what happened a day ago. First, she wanted to come and join us both, but that wouldn’t be a good idea. The reason why she allowed me and B
Avyanna's point of view: My sister already spent hours in the packhouse, meanwhile, I and my mate decided to go back to my mother's house. Trying to know that I was totally happy seeing her, especially knowing that she was the reason both me and my mate had our life so far. Brandon is here too, it is right now with her at the office of Rogers's house. Still, I wouldn't deny feeling a bit jealous. Especially when everyone bowed to her. I felt that this could be me. The thing is that I've never cared about power, Glory, or anything other things my mom wants from me. And when I saw that the same people who wanted to hurt me were bowing, shaking with fear, and ready to do anything to please my sister, I wanted to be her for a moment. I shook my head trying to throw away all those things. All I want to focus on right now is that she came all the way searching for me, and even saved my life. I should be grateful, but it's time for me, and my mate to leave. Well, here comes the i
Rebel’s point of view: The fire burned through my veins the moment a vast alpha wolf aimed to kill my sister. Brandon ran straight toward both of them while trying to get between Alpha, Avy, and Peter. The weird thing was that Brandon was knocked down the moment he was near the wolf. Seeing through the situation, it wasn’t doing us any favor. As a matter of fact, I just arrived six minutes ago. Still, I can tell how strong this alpha is. I’m even doubting if any of us will make it with less damage if we fought against an entire pack with such a strong alpha. The reason why I decided to avoid the fight was still not to show any weakness. I growl, giving the alpha a warning, and also, showing my dominance of the entire pack. After all, I am the future werewolves’ Queen, and I won’t believe any of them would dare fight against me, even that strong alpha. As I expected, the moment all of them acknowledged my presence due to my dominant aura, they all bowed to me. When I say all,
