“we stay better off without them.”Daisy’s POVIt’s been a couple of days since the hanging. Hades and Lucien have been working tirelessly to ensure that all impunities have been taken off.Everyone that had been involved with Alec and Alpha Smith were facing trials, it would have been bad on the system if Hades had acknowledged one and not all, that would have kept the cohorts strong, enabling them to keep the frame up and in turn intimidate the weak.“Luna” a soft voice called.The name was still taking a while to settle, and I had gotten comfortable with seeing people look at me with a scoff and now, the admiration in their eyes still caught me off guard.“hi” I said to the little boy that stood in front of me, his wide grin showed his missing front tooth.“C..can Amani join us?” he stuttered, his fingers fumbling as he spoke.I could imagine how big of a courage it took for him to walk up to us and I was never going to turn him down.“I promise I’ll watch out for her like I do my
“Something about it still felt strange.”Author’s POV“You can never refuse what you been yearning for,” Priya muttered, her heart hammering in her chest as she recalled the memories that she had kept locked up for years.“I had withdrawn from my family, so it wasn’t like they could exactly know my plight,” she continued.Daisy and Brittany sat with bated breaths, the haunted look in Priya’s eyes broke them.“I met Maddox at a party, I wasn’t exactly sure of who had thrown the party but I was there,” Priya whispered.Priya had closed her eyes, her mind taking her back to the night she wished had never occurred.The loud music echoed through her ears as she forced her way through the throngs of crowd that had gathered. No one really paid Priya any mind as each person was either too focused on sucking the face off their partner or face down in drugs.Priya wandered through the crowd until she found a corner that wasn’t exactly occupied by libidinous teenagers.Priya felt awkward standin
“trying to steady myself, but it felt like I was some body else.”Author’s POVNothing can save a soul that won’t acknowledge they have been lost.Maddox had convinced Priya to run away from home, it meant no one would question the bite marks and the paleness.Priya had stayed in Maddox’s nest, enjoying the thrill and shrill of being seen.A tear fell from Priya’s eyes, she raised her hand wiping off the tears, shaking her head to clear the fog she was in.Brittany and Daisy had tears flowing down their cheeks, they couldn’t believe she had gone through it all.“I guess my wolf knew I was dying, and had called out to Lucien,” Priya whispered.“Lucien and Hades had some how found out the hide out I was locked in,” Priya muttered.“Finding me battered, and bruised wasn’t the disturbing part, it was the fact that I was screaming for Maddox to save me,” Priya cried.“I had spent months hating Lucien and Hades. I couldn’t be trusted to stay alone, because every hour I was always trying to
“listening, living, trying”Hades’ POVI was thankful for the initiative my father had had, placing the office structure in the center of the kingdom.It was easier to watch Daisy and Amani from here.“Still perving on your girl?” Lucien said, immediately he walked into the office.I rolled my eyes at him, my gaze focused on Daisy as she smiled at the little boy.Lucien walked up beside me, “oh, I see someone is trying to take your woman from you,” he teased.A low growl rumbled from my chest, shocking Lucien who wouldn’t stop laughing“Damn! Hades, you are scared of a little boy?” Lucien bellowed slapping his knees.I ignored it laughter, walking towards the desk, “what do you need Lucien?” I muttered, looking unimpressed at his teasing. Lucien was unbothered by my aloofness, he just kept on laughing like he had cracked the funniest joke.“Don’t be like that? I’m sure Daisy will tell the young boy she’s spoke for,” he muttered.Lucien finally sobered up, “Luke had sent in the report,
“I can get drowned in your lust, your constant want for me.”Daisy’s POVHades tried arguing his way out of having dinner with the rest but at the end, he had no other choice than to agree.Hades sat with a permeant scowl on his face, ignoring Lucien and Alaric’s taunting.Brittany and I watched Alaric’s interactions with Priya, and it warmed my heart to see the way he was attentive with her.“Would you like to join me and my family on our trip?” Alaric asked Priya.Priya’s smile brightened, Alaric was subtly trying to introduce Priya as his girlfriend to his parents.“And where will you be going?” Lucien asked like an overbearing parent that he was.“We have a vacation home sort of in the north and I know Priya would love it there,” Alaric replied, looking unbothered by Lucien’s questioning.Priya rolled her eyes at her brother, “ignore him,” she whispered to Alaric.“yes, I will love to,” she replied happily.Hades laughed, enjoying the frustrated look on Lucien’s face.“hey, I wan
“like flowers we had grown prettier.”Daisy’s POV“This isn’t the way to our room,” I giggled, slapping Hades’ back as we moved down the hallway.Somewhere along the lines of rushing out of the restaurant and get to my room, Hades had decided that I wasn’t walking fast enough and he swung me over his shoulders.As a reply, Hades slapped my butt, kneading it as a soothing remedy.My eyes took in the familiar hallway, and my heart dropped, Hades was taking us towards his room.We had gotten so comfortable in my room that I had barely made a fuss about going to his.And Hades had never asked me to move to his room and I also never asked him.“Hades” I called out slowly, the humor in my eyes replaced with curiosity.“Hmmm” he hummed, his hand still placed on my butt.“What are we doing here?” I whispered, my voice quivering with nerves.I wasn’t going to lie, but I had avoided this section of the house because it reminded me of the times he had spent with Astrid.“it’s a surprise,” he rep
“have you ever tried this one,”Daisy POV“There’s one more thing I would like to show you,” Hades said, wrapping his fingers around mine.The nervous look on his face had returned, and I wondered what he was up to again.Hades had given me enough, the house, a place for us to feel like a family rather than just roommates was enough.“I know how flowers are like your favorite things in the world, and I want you to have that every time, you can just have a sense of it closer to you,” Hades rambled, slowly placing me on his laps.“Hades,” I whispered, placing my hands on his cheeks, feeling the warmness of his skin.“you have shown me much more kindness than I ever deserve,” I whispered.“there’s nothing that you would give me that I would never love,” I whispered.Hades eyes softened, it was like my words were the confirmation he needed.“Okay, let’s go,” he said softly.I smiled enjoying he way Hades arm felt around my body as he led me slowly to the little green house he had made on
“each stare still fills me with butterflies.” Daisy’s POV The words kept ringing in my head. I wasn’t exactly sure I had heard him right but I was certain the words weren’t from my lips. It has been a few days since we had moved into the house and I must say, Hades was taking the christening of the house to heart. The night always seems to end the same way, a blinding orgasm and the softest whisper of I love you. I felt nervous about asking him, I mean, I might just be imagining it, projecting things I wanted. “So we should be living for the shadow moon pack soon,” Hades muttered, placing a gentle kiss on my lips as he rose from the bed.. I looked at him with a lost look on my face, I was still trying to slowly come out of the subspace Hades had walked me into. Lately our sex life has been stronger, like I couldn’t stand a second of being away from him. I rushed into the bathroom, pressing my body against Hades as he leaned against the counter washing his face. “Hey
“Another odyssey and I am excited,”Daisy’s POVTwo years laterThe shrieks of laughter echoed through the meadow.I sat quietly on the porch watching the kids as they played around the lake. It was only a few months after the birth of our twins that Hades had admitted he had been building our family.And in less than a year later Hades had some how convinced me and now I was planning on another baby.“Amani, you have to let your brother have the ball” I scolded, rubbing my stomach as I felt the baby move.The twins were just a few months shy of turning two and they were just as domineering as Hades.It was funny watching them growl at any boy that tried to play with Amani.The only thing that kept Gina safe was the fact that she was bigger and has always imposed her age, but that didn’t stop the boys from always scaring her friends away .I could swear they did it most of the time to see how well they can piss her off.Hades emerged from the house with a glass filled with lemonade. M
“been waiting for so long, nice to meet you”Author’s POVIt was subtle, the pain had sneaked up on Daisy while she was in the bathroom. She had sneaked into the bathroom alone even after Hades warned her not to.They were at the final stages of pregnancy and they knew the babies would cover at any point.“Hades!” Daisy screamed, feeling the excruciating run through her back. It felt like the kids were clawing at the lining of her wall, trying to break out.Hades rushed into the bathroom, his eyes wide in shock, noticing Daisy standing in a pool of water by her feet.“We have to get to the clinic,” Daisy cried.Hades nodded, he had been prepping himself for this moment. And he wasn’t going to panic.“Hades!” Daisy growled, snapping him out of his frozen position.“right, let’s go,” he said picking Daisy up from the ground.Gina had heard the loud voices coming from daisy’s room and she had ran out of her room only to find Hades with a sobbing Daisy in his arms.“Gina, can you get Aman
“each day feels the same, only that the love intensifies.” Daisy’s POV The news came in strides of three. Xavier had sent someone to inform me about the news of Astrid’s baby. Priya was moving in with Alaric even though that meant we would barely see her, but we were still happy for the next phase in their lives. The last was Brittany commenting about the two heart beats that echoed through my stomach. Hades had pressed his ears to my stomach hoping to tell Brittany that she was wrong. Hades raised his head, his eyes gleaming with shock as he confirmed the news. “we are having twins” I whispered softly. Hades wrapped his arms around me, sending warmth through my body as it touched his. “We are having twins” he repeated. Brittany had sneaked out of the room giving us the privacy she knew we needed. “Are you happy?” Hades asked, looking at my face with an unsure look on his face. I understood his apprehension but I needed him to know that I had gotten better and s
“the skies smiled blue, the days felt yellow, this is happiness.”Daisy’s POVI died of embarrassment a thousand times over, every time I recalled Lucien’s teasing tone in Hades’ office.Hades wasn’t a good help either, he had laughed all through it as I crawled out from underneath the table.I couldn’t help but wonder if the rest of the people had heard or it was only Lucien that hard figured it out.“I would have paid to see that” Priya laughed, slapping her knees as she did.I decided to tell them about the encounter before they heard it from Lucien.Brittany frowned slightly with a teasing look on her face. I could see the mischievous glint in her eyes and I knew she was about to harass Priya.“You would pay to watch Daisy have sex?” She whispered.Priya stopped, her eyes wide like saucers as she heard the words fly out of Brittany’s mouth.“What, ewwwww no,” she spluttered, shuddering at the thought.“But you just said,” Brittany said, looking like she was trying to understand wh
“it’s cute how you want my touch for life.”Hades’ POVIt couldn’t get any better than this. I would love to apologize for thinking that when Daisy had marked me that she was possessive and needy, because obviously I hadn’t seen a pregnant Daisy.It has been a rollercoaster of emotions these few months, with lots of highs and a tremendous amount of lows.The highs being the fact that Daisy had become a libidinous teenager, which I wasn’t complaining.A smile formed on my lips as I recalled a night I had woken up to daisy crying loudly in our room.I had assumed it was one of her cravings and I immediately panicked wondering what it was that I would be fetching.“you don’t want me anymore” Daisy cried, tears streaming down her face as she sobbed.“what gave you such outrageous idea?” I asked in a low tone, my heart beating wildly in my chest, noticing the way she was hyperventilating from how long she had cried, the sight alone broke my heart in a thousand pieces.“baby you have to ta
“my broken heart has finally mended, all I am now is complete.”Daisy’s POVI sat frozen in shock.“Congratulations Luna,” the doctor said.I blinked, trying to process the words he had just said.“Pregnant?” I whispered.The doctor nodded, looking excited at the news.“Would you like the Alpha king to be brought here?” He asked.The thought of Hades snapped me back to reality.“Hades” I whispered.We haven’t really talked about children, apart from teasing here and there, I wasn’t sure I knew his stance on children.Yes, he was awesome with Amani, but I couldn’t be sure if he wanted another baby soon.“Luna?” the doctor called, staring at me with a confused look in his eyes.“Yes, sorry, I will tell him myself,” I muttered.“thank you doctor,” I whispered, walking out of the room.Gina jumped up from her chair, excited to see me like I had been gone for eternity.“was it a bug?” she asks in a curious tone.“Yes,” I replied, leading her out of the clinic.Gina chirped away as we walk
“all at once, you are the one I have been hoping for.”Daisy’s POV“You should get yourself checked out, one thing I had swallowed a bug and I couldn’t stop puking for days,” Gina said.I have been vomiting at the slightest provocation lately, it was like my nose had become excessively sensitive to certain scents.I couldn’t bother Hades with it as he has been busy with the council of elders trying to find a suitable leader for the pack.“It’s not a bug Gina, it might just be something that I ate,” I sighed, leaning on the bathroom counter hoping to stop the nausea I was feeling.“you’ll never know,” Gina whisper yelled, frowning at me.“I think I would definitely know if I have swallowed a bug” I sighed, feeling slightly exhausted.Gina shook her head disapprovingly at my logic.“you would never know,” she whispered, helping cover my body with the bed sheet.Amani had thrown a tantrum when Hades was about leaving for the council meeting and the only resolution was for Hades to take h
“king of my body, my heart and my soul.”Daisy’s POVIt’s been a long year.I had barely noticed.“I Daisy Arkinos, daughter of Arkinos, Fae warrior, accept you Hades knight as my mate,” I whispered.There wasn’t any argument in it, I had loved Hades from the beginning and they was absolutely nothing in the world that would take that away.Hades released a long sigh like he was afraid of the response that would come from me.“I love you,” I cried, falling to my knees.Hades’ arms wrapped around me, a loud smile forming on his lips as he heard my words.“I love you” Hades muttered, kissing all over my face.I shrieked, laughing out loud as he licked the tip of my nose.“You should have told me, rather than let me rack my head thinking of possible answers,” I hissed, slapping his chest.Hades laughed, “I told you the answer every single night,” he muttered.I gasped, “there weren’t my imaginations,” I said softly.Hades chuckled enjoying the look of realization on my face.“I love you,”
“I know exactly where it leads but I watch us go round and round each time.”Daisy’s POVIt felt déjà vu.“I didn’t order this” I said softly to the bartender, who had dropped a tumbler of bourbon.“He did,” she replied putting to a direction behind me.I turned, my eyes widening as I noticed Hades sitting in the corner with a glass in hand.A smile formed on my lips, my face brightening up immediately I noticed him.“Thank you,” I whispered to the bartender, jumping down from my stool and rushing towards Hades.“Hades” I called out, wondering why he wasn’t looking up a me.Hades finally raised his head, his eyes gleaming with mischief.“Hi, I am Hades,” he said, stretching out his hand for a hand shake.“Daisy,” I replied softly, deciding to go along with his game.“What’s a beautiful flower, doing in a damned place like this?” he said with a teasing smile.My eyes met Hades’ gaze and it was like the same intensity of the first night we had met.“Searching for a flower,” I said, my v
