Millicent's POVSylvester came into my room and though I did not want him there, I pretended I did not mind his presence. He had to believe I was falling in love with him. Once I gained his trust, I would strike him in a way he would never have imagined. 'Yes?' I said with a smile on my face.'Have I told you how beautiful you are?' he asked, coming close to me. I felt like backing away but I stood firmly where I was with the smile still pasted on my lips.He tipped my face up and kissed me lightly on the lips. I felt like spitting on his face when he tipped my face up but I knew it would ruin my plans. After enduring his kiss, which surprisingly didn't feel so bad, it felt like he had imprinted his lips on mine and I nearly raised my hands to wipe it off my lips but I stilled my movements yet again. For how long would I continue to restrain myself?'You have been telling me that since I got back', I replied.'But you do not believe me?' he said, looking pained.'I know you have con
I was walking round the pack one day when I thought I heard my name mentioned. I hated to eavesdrop but felt that it was important for to know what was being said about me. So, I hid behind a house, close to the speakers.It was the Beta and one other warrior. 'I feel for Millicent. She has suffered alot and now, the Alpha is using her while pretending to care for her', Beta Daniel said. He was the Beta I had danced with at Sylvester's and Cathania's engagement party.'But he might just end up really caring for her', the warrior said, smiling. 'It has been known to happen that while pretending to care, one actually starts caring!''I doubt Alpha Sylvester will ever care for Millicent', Beta Daniel continued. 'He is just using her to secure his throne as Alpha'.'How so?' the warrior asked bemused. 'Is he at risk of losing his throne?'' Do not tell me you did not know the outcome of the meeting held after the engagement party between Alpha Sylvester and Cathania', Beta Daniel continu
Sylvester's POVI walked into my garden to meet with Cathania as we usually did since I brought Millicent back into the pack. I could not afford at this time to meet her outside and anyway, no one comes into my garden except they wanted to face my wrath. It was not called the 'Restricted Garden' for nothing.'Do you know how it feels to be away from you and keep imagining what you must be doing with that filthy maid?' Cathania sulked, as soon as I joined her there.'I know but you don't have to be jealous. Remember we are just using her. I virtually have her feeding out of my hands. I shall not be surprised if she is already head over heels in love with me', I said.'Anyway, we shall stick to the plan. Stay away from me. I shall act as though we have nothing in common', I advised Cathania.'This had better be fast. I am getting impatient', Cathania said snuggling even closer into my arms.'Be patient my love. After the council is satisfied, I shall be free to do as I please. Imagine b
Millicent's POV I heaved a sigh of relief as soon as I heard the door shut behind him and his footsteps descend the stairs.As much as I was furious that Alpha Sylvester had lied to me and was using me, I still could not stop thinking about what he had said about my parents or someone killing his parents. Was he using that as justification for his evil deeds? My parents if they were the people he was referring to could not have killed anyone without cause and definitely not a fellow Alpha and his Luna. My father was a kind man and not a murderer. So it could not possibly be my father Sylvester was referring to. With that, I wiped that off my mind and focused on how I was going to teach Sylvester to deceive me.I was still contemplating, when there was some noise outside. It was not my business, so I decided to continue to indulge in my thoughts. But the noise became much and I felt a nudge to go out and find out what the ruckus was all about.I stepped out of my room and found that t
Christopher's POVAs I walked into the reception hall, I was happy to see my pack - our pack so happy. I had decided to come home to Moon Ville Pack for a while. A smell permeated my nostrils. It was very intoxicating. I looked around but could not identify where or who the smell was coming from. I smiled at the people who were happy to see me. I was happy to see them through but that smell, of fresh lemon and grapes was drawing me, drawing my eyes towards the stairs.All of a sudden, my eyes fell to her... every other person ceased to exist that instant.Oh my God! I thought, I have never seen anything like it before - the feeling that flooded through me and neither had I seen anyone like her. She was not too tall but not short either, with a slim figure but with the right curves, her breasts were full and I longed to put them into my mouth. My mouth watered and I licked my lips.'Mate!' My wolf whispered.I had to agree with Zara, my wolf. I wanted to mate this goddess. Yes, that w
Sylvester's POV'She is my mate!' Christopher hissed at me, as soon as we were behind closed doors. 'How could you introduce her as your mate?'I had known that such was the case when I saw the way he was looking at Millicent at the reception hall. And the bitch had also been staring at him as though she were on heat. This was someone who was going to be my Luna. Shameless!'Why are you angry?' my wolf asked. 'You don't really want her, do you?''Oh shut up!' I screamed at him. 'Not now!''Christopher, how can she be your mate when she is mine?' I asked in a gentle voice, trying to reason with him. Even she can attest to it, that as she came into her wolf on her eighteenth birthday, that fact was revealed to her.' Christopher was welcome to her but only after I had used her to secure my position.'Is it possible then that we are both mated to the same person?' Christopher asked, bemused.'I have not known such a thing to happen but it might be possible', I conceded.'We should find ou
Third Person POV. 'Elders in council, I do not understand what you are trying to say. The girl in question is my fated mate. How can Sylvester introduce her as his mate? Or did you mean chosen mate?' Christopher asked, looking at his brother.'She is my fated mate as well', Sylvester said. 'I had to go bring her back from exile because her absence at the pack was causing a lot of sickness and death. The seer said, she is my fated mate and should rule alongside me, that's the only way to avert the misfortune'.Christopher looked at the elders with incredulity.'What your brother said is the truth', the chief said. 'But you are also right when you said she is your fated mate because I saw the bond between you two even before you shook hands at your reception the other day', he paused. 'The only possible explanation is that the moon goddess has decided to mate both of you to the same person'.'Is it possible?' Christopher asked, still not believing. He did not think he could share his m
Millicent's POVI was walking the grounds one day, appreciating nature and trying to forget the thoughts that were haunting me when I heard a voice behind me.'Hello, beauty'.The sound of the voice sent shivers down my spine. Not apprehensive shivers but sensual shivers. The voice was a rich baritone. I swung round, though I already knew who the voice belonged to. Only one person could get me to react that way, Christopher! The male who has refused to leave my head and had engrained himself in my thoughts.'Oh, it's you', I said, flustered. I could not afford to keep reacting like a bitch on heat to him. He was the same as his twin brother. I had to be careful. 'My name is Millicent, not Beauty!' I snapped because I didn't want him to know the effect he was having on me.'I know, Millicent', he said smiling charmingly. His smile caused butterflies to flutter in my stomach. It is a cliche but it was true, that was exactly how I felt. 'but I meant it as a compliment. You are beautiful.
