Dylan's POV
A sweet tantalizing smell suddenly hits my nostrils making my wolf awakened just before I heard a soft knock on my door, "come in" I growled and she slowly opened the door and peered in softly,the words "Mate,Mate" suddenly roared in my brain and I could feel the fur of my wolf on my skin, I was shocked at my sudden reaction to her as I tried to rein in the sudden forceful feelings, I had sworn off falling for anyone when I got rejected by Myla, I am the master of my own feelings and no one can ever make me fall in love, I shut off the chanting of Mate in my head as I gazed her her, feeling agitated, she twisted her hands nervous and refused to look me in the eyes, "you must bow whenever you see me" I growled at her trying to unleash my anger on her, she immediately did as I've ordered and I sneered, "now, get me my breakfast and be fast about it""Alright" she answered as she made to leave, in a flash, I had her pinned to the wall, "you'll answer, yes my LorDear readers, I believe you'll like my story, please kindly leave your thoughts and opinions of it and your encouragement will be appreciated also.

Author's POVAriana walked into the fashion bureau with Dylan, she cringed at the whispers and stares she got and felt like the ground should open and swallow her up, with heads bowed, she followed Dylan straight to his office with heads bowed but he suddenly stopped by the door and she bumped into him, she heard him hissed in anger before turning suddenly to face her, his eyes flashing fire, "will you for a moment not be clumsy?" He hissed and she cowered, "I...I'm sorry" she stuttered and he gritted his teeth, "can't you say a word without stuttering?" Heads still bowed, she kept quiet, she doesn't understand why he was being so angry with her today, without another word, he went in and she meekly followed and watched as he sat behind his desk. "It's time for my coffee" he stared at her straight in the eyes and she quickly averted hers, he had told her never to stare at him in the eyes, he frowned when she made no move to go get his coffee, "is something wrong?" Her eye
Ariana's POVI have been in the dressing room for what seemed like decades before I heard footsteps, I quickly got up from my sitting position and ran to the door in an attempt to pound on it for help but to my amazement, I twisted the handle and it suddenly opened revealing Dylan's angry face, "so you came here to hide to avoid your work" he yelled, my heart raced as I stared at him, trying to explain myself, "no, no, I would never do that, I was locked in, I pounded on the door but it seemed like no one was nearby"He raised his brow in disbelief, "let's say I want to believe you, what are you doing here in the first place?" I quickly remembered the file he had sent me to get, I quickly rushed to where I left it and brought it to him, "here is your file, I came to get it for you as instructed" his eyes darkened and there was that glow again in it whenever he's really angry, I took a step backward as he walked towards me menacingly, "And what am I supposed to do with th
Dylan's POVI paced my room in anger, I couldn't explain what had just happened, one minute it was Myla's face that I was seeing and the next minute I was inside Ariana, the feel of her supple flesh zapped through my memory and I growled at the image, I walked out and went into the woods, pulling my clothes, I let my wolf out, I could feel it's claws and furs as it took over, it jumped out happily and howled, it's sense of smell heightened by the change, he caught a whiff of something, more like a faint smell of witch but it was gone before he could be sure about it. it took off, a predator preying the woods, it was dawn before Icame back to where I had kept my clothes, changing back into human form, I quickly wore it and walked inside, I passed through Ariana's door and paused, I knew she had cried all night, I suddenly felt like apologizing for what happened but what was the use, it wasn't gonna change anything, "mark her, make her yours" I heard my wolf say
Ariana's POVIt's been a week since that incident, a week since I've set my eyes on Dylan, he's probably avoiding me but I don't care a bit, in fact, I am grateful for that because I don't think I wanna see him either. I was in my room pondering on my role as his slave after that last incident when the door burst open to reveal Dylan's angry face, "oh! he's always angry" I thought to myself and he growled making me wonder if he has heard my thoughts, I stared at him with a feeling of indifference, "why ain't you dressed, get your ass down to the office today" he snapped and I was suddenly filled with indignation but held myself from giving him a befitting reply, I simply rolled my eyes at him and saw his eyes narrowed, "don't test my patience" he whispered fiercely, I stood there looking at him, hoping he'll get the hint and move away for me to get dressed, "so? What the hell are you still waiting for?" He thundered as his face darkened, "I would have gotten dressed if you'd al
Ariana's POVI didn't stop running until I reached the dressing room and firmly shut the door behind me, I took a deep even breathe and wiped my eyes with the back of my hands, my eyes quickly scanned the room and I felt relieved that it was empty, I needed this time alone, I let my knees fold as I dropped to the floor and placed my head between my knees and allowed the tears to flow, this life is just so unfair and I was feeling tired of it already, no one love me neither do any care for me, I'm all alone, I wish I had someone I can talk to but I wasn't supposed to be alone, I have a father and a sister but their ill-treatment of me, while I was staying with them, made my stomach churn, I wish Sam could show me at least a little bit of love, a little bit of support but neither she nor my dad had even shown concern when I was taken in as a slave by Dylan. Dylan, he has treated me with as much contempt as he could ever since the incident of him laying with me, I was supposed to
Ariana's POVOne minute I was standing on the road, waiting for the truck to hit me and end my miserable life, and the next minute I was in my angry master's arms, where did he come from, and how had he managed to move that fast? Why did he save me? I just wanted to die, what would he matter to him if I'm dead anyway."You should be happy he saved you, he doesn't bother himself with other people, let alone a common slave" I glanced up to see a brunette with large brown eyes staring at me, she was dressed in a red gown with Sillitoe's, she looked classy enough. I had noticed her earlier with Dylan and wondered who she could be, she must have read my thoughts because she suddenly smiled, crossing her arms across her chest, "I'm Myla, Dylan's girlfriend" she stood looking at me as if waiting for a response or reaction from me, her eyes narrowed as she glared at me, "don't you ever play such cheap pranks ever again to get his attention with that she stomps off leaving he
Dylan's POVMy wolf sense kicked in when the car went nose dive down the cliff, I could hear the rushing of water beneath us and knew we were about to plunge into the water very soon, that gave me some measure of relief, there's a chance of us surviving. I wasn't afraid of dying but for some reason I don't want any harm to come to Ariana, ironic that I had saved her from death earlier only to see another death threat facing her, I shook off the thought, I would die before I let anything happen to her, I frowned at the fierceness of my vow, what was wrong with me? I'll have time to analyze that later, for now, I have to get her to safety. I turned to her, her gaze was horror-filled and she was chanting some words, when I turned to hear what she was saying, I was stunned to hear her chanting " I don't wanna die..." I almost laughed out loud despite our horrible situation, how ironic that earlier she had wanted to kill herself and I saved her,now she was chanting I don't wanna die w
Ariana's POVWe walked on in silence and I wondered how we could ever get out of these woods, we were in the middle of nowhere, I gazed at his profile, he looks stoic and confident, so unafraid and I felt safe with him, I frowned, wondering why I should be feeling safe with a man who took me in as his slave and took my innocence so brutally, sure, he had saved my life twice in a day, maybe he did it so that he would continue torturing me, an odd feeling sat on my chest as I watched, I found myself yearning to have things I shouldn't be dreaming of having with him, what's happening to me? Why would I be thinking of this cold man? My mind flashed to the warmth I had felt earlier when I was unconscious, how secured I had felt, perhaps he wasn't so cold as I thought, I was so engrossed in my thoughts that I didn't notice he had stopped walking, I bumped into him and would have fallen if he hadn't caught me just in time, "watch it" I heard him growled as he stared at me,
Author's POVDamien paced outside the door where Sam and Ariana were, he was asked by Dylan to protect the ladies while the battle raged outside and he wished he was out there to help his friend, the noise of the battle and howls of wolves filled the air."What's going on?" He asked the werewolf he had sent to check on how the fight was going on outside"They are not dying" the wolf replied with a voice filled with fear and trepidation laced down Damien's spine"What do you mean by they are not dying?" He asked"The wizard's men kept coming back to life, it's as if they have numerous lives, the Alpha even bit the wizard but he stood back up"A soft gasp from behind him had Damien turning around to see Ariana holding onto the doorframe"Luna, what are you doing? You are supposed to be in bed" Damien said and quickly walked toward her"There must be a way to make them die, there must be," Ariana said and stared at Damien, did you find anything when you were captured?Damien shook his he
Lilith gazed around the crowd that had gathered for her supposed wedding with Dylan and was surprised to see the Lycan king and some Alphas from other packs, who had invited them? Were they expecting this wedding? She had proposed the wedding to Dylan only yesterday and it was solely her idea, he would not have had the time to invite them right? There was barely any preparation done.Her nerves were almost frayed with nervousness already and she was so tensed but today was the day she and Erasmus had planned to take over the pack and nothing could stop them. If the Lycan king and the others want to be at the party, then they are welcomed.Where the hell was Dylan? He had asked her to go out while he got the contract, what was taking him so long? Erasmus and his soldiers were set already. She had intentionally not invited the werewolf's council of elders nor had she invited any external pack because she did not want any external complications but somehow, external packs had found thei
Author's POVLilith dashed towards Erasmus's house, she could not wait to tell him the news about her success, by tomorrow, the Blood Moon pack would no longer existShe paused when she got there and saw him screaming angrily outside, something must have upset him this much and she ran the remaining distance toward him"Master, are you okay?" She asked with a worried frown as she gazed around to see what might have upset him this much"Is the deed done?" he asked and turned towards her"Yes, Erasmus, the wedding is set for tomorrow and we shall attack by then, the contract will be signed by then"He narrowed his eyes on her, "the contract has not been signed? What the hell are you still waiting for since you have him under your control""He got sick when he was about to sign it earlier and...""Excuses...I don't care about it, get him to sign it tonight" he clenched out and gazed at her meaningfully, "unless, you have developed a soft spot for him""No way in hell, that will ever happ
Author's POV Damien opened his eyes and groaned in pain, "where am I?" He whispered as he stared around, damn, he was not supposed to go unconscious.He sat up and groaned a little, damn it, he was in so much pain and he had been in and out of this excruciating pain for God knows how long, his head was pounding furiously, "damn you and your wizard Lilith" he muttered and gazed around for anything that he could use to boost himself to a standing position. He felt so weak and his bones cracked in pain as he pushed himself up, he had to get out of there, he hadn't even learned anything about the staff that Ariana spoke about.The room where he was kept was empty and he wondered if the wizard was close by or if he had gone out, he hoped for the latter because right now, he was too weak to fight He slowly moved towards the door but as expected, it was locked from the outside, he placed his ear on the door, listening for sound from the other end but heard none, it would seem like Erasmus
Author's POV "What the hell did you just do?" Dylan screamed at Sam and dashed towards Ariana'she said that was the only way to bring your back""Bring me back from where? Dylan asked as he tried to stop the flow of blood"Let's get her treated first then I'll tell you everything""I'll go and get your husband," Dylan said standing to leave"That's not possible" Sam quickly grabbed his hand to keep him from going outDylan frowned at her impatiently, Look, despite you being my sister-in-law, I should be punishing you for this""Calm down Dylan, first of all, Damien is not available, secondly, you cannot let anyone know about what happened here and lastly, I need you here to help or I might lose a sister and you, a wife. After all, it's your fault that this happened to her"Dylan stared at her in bewilderment, "hang on, how is this my fault? You stabbed her""She asked me to" Samantha replied curtly as she tore Ariana's clothes to view the wound"She asked you to stab her and you jus
Ariana's POV I stretched lazily and could not stop the smile that sprang to my lips as my last escapade with Dylan filtered through my mind.I touched Dylan's side of the bed but he was nowhere to be found, I slowly dressed up and went downstairs.The loud cheers and music that filled the air reminded me that the festival was still ongoing, it was way past midnight and I was sure that those pack of wolves was going to be there until dawnI sighted Dylan seated at the head of his table, enjoying his drink while watching those dancing and cheering, I smiled and made my way toward him"I see that you are enjoying yourself," I said and placed my hands on his shoulders with a small kiss on his cheek"Ariana," he said but made no move whatsoever to return my kiss, he did not seem happy to see me and I frowned"What's wrong?" I asked, puzzled by his odd behavior"Nothing, I am tired and need my rest" he stood up and walked away"What the hell just happened? Why was he suddenly acting cold t
Lilith's POVI watched as Dylan finally came downstairs to join in the pack's festival celebration, he had left me at the council's celebration without a second thought and I had to find my way back to the pack.If I did not hate him so much, I would have said that I admired how much he loves his wife, I could say that I was almost jealous of the kind of bond that they both shared, not even the thought that I was also his mate could alter that bond but then, I was furious because their bond was really messing up with my plans and Erasmus was beginning to get agitated and impatient with me.My heart soared when I saw that he was coming downstairs alone, that meant his wife would not be hovering around him like a vulture and messing up my plans.The celebration was ongoing and there was dancing, drinking, and dining in the pack, this was my opportunity to add the elixir to his drink and finally have him eating out of my palms. I quickly poured his favorite French wine into a glass, and
Ariana's POV "Can I have the next dance?" I heard a voice say as soon as the music stopped and I turned to see the Alpha of the Red Moon pack standing behind me.Dylan frowned and I knew he was going to kick the ass of the Alpha that made such a request but before he could say anything, I smiled at the Alpha, "of course" I replied and placed my hand in his.Red Moon pack was one of the strongest packs in the werewolf's kingdom and this was a great opportunity for me to make him an ally, I needed to know those that I could rely on when I sent for themDylan's face was thunderous, he was not too pleased having his Luna in another man's arms, well, he would have to deal with it because what I was doing was for the betterment of our pack.I swayed in the arms of the Alpha of Red Moon pack and he drew me close to him, "you look beautiful tonight" I arched my brow at him as we moved synthetically to the rhythm of the song, "you mean pitiable right? Not beautiful" I replied, testing the wa
Author's POVLilith could not believe what Ariana had offered to her on a platter of gold. Perhaps, Ariana was not as smart as she had thought and had fallen for her act, she smiled inwardly as she thought of how best to use this opportunity presented to her. Erasmus will be damn proud of her, she needed Ariana to fall completely into her trap, and by the time she realizes just how much she was hated, it would be too late because she would have carried out her plans and destroyed the pack Right now, she just needed to look for the right opportunity to give Dylan the elixir so that he would be totally under her control.There were whispers as soon as Dylan got to the festival with Lilith, news had reached other packs that the Alpha of the Blood Moon pack had a new mate but they were not too sure how true it was.How could he choose an Omega over his beautiful and powerful wife who risked everything just to be with him? He could have just rejected this mate and kept on with his wife bu
