View MoreZariel's POV A huge smile spread across my face the moment Taliaâs words sank in. Dead? Zade was finally dead? I couldnât help itâthis was definitely something to celebrate. âDead?â I repeated, my voice barely audible. âAre you sure about this?â I really tried to keep my smile out of my voice. Talia was the kind of person who could pick up on the tiniest shifts in tone and I didn't want her to catch even a hint of it. She always seemed to hear more in the way things were said than in the words themselves. âWell,â she said, her tone dropping a little. âItâs not confirmed yet or anything, but the maids are talking about it. They heard the doctor telling Luna Ophelia that he might not pull through. Zade was attacked, Zariel. Really badly. Theyâre saying heâs barely holding on.â My heart, which had been racing with excitement, beating like a wild war drum, suddenly skipped a beat. Not confirmed? What the hell! I needed this to be real. He had to die for good. The words ke
Zarielâs POV âHow did it go?â I asked the men standing before me. I had asked them to disguise themselves as rogues, to hurt Zade. And of course, I asked them to hang around the pack, around the woods and be ever ready in case they sight Zade, so they'll attack him. I really hope they were able to succeed with it. Else, I'll kill them all. They wouldn't dare fail me. A smile broke out on the leaderâs face. âIt went well, Zariel. We attacked him.â My lips curled up into a smile. Good! This is what I want to hear. âYou all deserve accolades for a job well done.â I winked at him and his smile broadened. âSo when are we getting our payment?â I rolled my eyes. âRelax, man. I was about to come to that sooner!â âI'm sorry, I didn't mean to sound that way. But you know, people can't be trusted one bit. They'll always want to take advantage ofâŠ.â My lips curled into a smile. âIt's fine!â I should be mad at him for generalising me with other people, but I didn't. Not when he had just
Melissa's POV âYour guesses are right, Alpha Elijah!â I winked at him again. âTabitha!â He let out a low guttural growl. âThat old hag! She's going to regret this!â He said through gritted teeth and I just let out a small laugh. âExactly how you are going to regret it if you ever tell Alpha Axel about our little secret!â I said in a low whisper. I couldn't tell where the courage to stand up to him came from, but I was glad that it did. âYou won't dare!â He hissed and I just smirked. âWon't dare, huh?â I chucked. âCome on, sweetheart, I'd dare to set your ego on fire just to watch it burn. But don't worry, I'll let you keep your delusions. They are the only thing holding your fragile little world together!â âMelissa!!!â My mother yelled at me through the mind link and I rolled my eyes mentally. âWhat?â I shot back. âHe's an Alpha. Don't talk to him that way. It'll only piss him off the most and we'll both be in troubleâ She said again and I shrugged. âAnd that's exactly w
Melissa's POV âAnswer me!!â He repeated when he didn't hear any words from my mother. The air grew thick with tension as Alpha Elijah stepped closer. My mother and I stood frozen, our face pale as if we had seen a ghost. Alpha Elijah was Axel's best ally and there is no tendency that he wouldn't tell Axel what he has just heard. Goodness! We are done for. âDon't make me repeat myself, Matilda!â He growled. My mother's lips trembled but no words seemed to come out. It was as if she had suddenly gone dumb and I couldn't blame her one bit. âAlpha Elijah,â my mother finally managed to answer, her voice shaking. âIâŠI can explain. It's not what you think. I didn't meanâŠ.â âDidn't mean what, Matilda?â His voice was low, but it carried a dangerous edge. âDidn't mean to confess to murdering Tricia? Didn't mean to lie to the entire pack about her death? Or didnât mean to let Lenora suffer for years, knowing full well her mother was innocent?â My heart pounded in my chest as I watched
Melissa's POV âMother?â I called out. Right now, we were currently sitting on a mat in the park and I was resting my head on her lap. It was hard, especially as my baby wouldn't let me stay peacefully, as he kept kicking me repeatedly, but I was determined to try. âMhhmm?â She answered. âIs something bothering you, my child?â âDo you think I went too far?â I asked her as I watched her face intently. âAnd what are you talking about?â Her brows were knitted in confusion. I took a deep breath and exhaled. âIt's about Lenora. Do you think I went too far ....â âOh, Melissa.â She cut me off. âNot again please. Let's not talk about that bitch here. We came out here to cool our beautiful heads and not worry about some barren bitch. Don't talk about her, please.â I let out a deep breath. âNo mother. I really want us to talk about this. You've been avoiding this conversation for a long time and you never let me talk about it.â She hissed. âAnd that's because there is nothing to talk a
Lenora's POV Us? What the hell was she talking about? Apart from Talia, Zade had never mentioned another woman in his life. The question lingered in the air. My stomach twisted into knots, but I kept my face impassive, refusing to let her see the growing tension on my face. âNo,â I replied, my voice steady despite the turmoil brewing within me. âHe hasnât.â Taylor's smirk widened like a predator toying with its prey. Her eyes glinted with a cruel satisfaction that made my skin crawl. She was enjoying this, whatever game she was playing. But I wouldnât give her the satisfaction of seeing me break. Not now. Not ever. âWell, Zade and I are together,â she said, her tone dripping with a faux sweetness. She let the words hang, savoring the moment as if they were a weapon meant to break me. My jaw tightened but I refused to flinch. âWhat do you mean?â I asked, my voice low and measured, though my heart pounded in my chest. She rolled her eyes, her smirk never faltering for once. â
Lenora's POV Taking a deep and shuddering breath, I forced myself to meet Luna Ophelia's gaze. Her eyes, usually so full of warmth, now held a strange intensity that made my stomach churn. âIâm sorry, Luna,â I began, my voice trembling slightly. âWe were attacked by rogues, and itâs my faultâŠ.â âLenora!â she cut me off, her voice softer than I expected. It sounded almost tender. âHow can you say itâs your fault?â Her words caught me off guard, and I stared at her, bewildered. Just moments ago, her expression had been furious, her anger evident. But now she looked at me with a gentleness that made my chest tighten. âMy LunaâŠâ I stammered, unsure of how to respond. The shift in her demeanor was a bit confusing. Her anger had melted away, and now it was replaced by a calm, almost maternal concern. âYou are not responsible for what happened to my son,â she said firmly, her voice steady. âYou didnât ask the rogues to attack him. Or did you?â She raised her eyebrows slightly, her
Lenora's POV The guards moved swiftly, and lifted Zade with care as they carried him back to the pack house. I trailed behind them, my steps heavy, my mind consumed by fear and guilt - the fear of losing him, and the guilt for being the reason he was in this state. I shouldn't have suggested that we walk in the woods. I should have agreed when he proposed that we go home. If I had agreed, none of this would have happened. He wouldn't be here fighting for his life. He wouldn't be on the verge of âGet the doctor!â Karl's sharp and commanding voice cut through the chaos. I couldnât tell which maid he was addressing not when my vision was blurred by tears. I just followed them like a lost puppy into Zadeâs room, where they laid him gently on the bed. âIs he going to be okay?â I asked Karl, my voice laced with concern, though my eyes never left Zade. His face was pale, his eyes shut tight, his body burning with fever. What else could those rogues have done to him in my absence
Lenora's POV âAxel threatened me that he was going to cut the mate bond if I didn't get King Zach to forgive him. You know, when a lady is in love, she'd do anything to please her man, she'd do anything to keep him and that's what I did. I was stupidly in love with Axel and didn't want to lose him.â I paused to take a deep breath. I noticed the way Zade was watching me intently. He must be eager to know if I did it or not. âTherefore I went to meet King Zach in the hotel that Axel had chosen. When I got there, he didn't only want me to pleasure him with my mouth. He wanted me to have sex with him. At first, I wanted to do it, but at the end of the day, I realised that I couldn't let Axel define my worth. That day, I was ready to lose Axel. I didn't care anymore if he wanted to break the mate bond or not.â I paused again. He was still staring at me. It was as if with each passing minute, his anger deepened. This was the kind of reaction I expected from Axel when I told him tha
Lenora's POV I sat before the vanity in my room, gazing at my image in the mirror, holding the test results on my lap as tears streamed down my face. My hands shook as I gripped the test results, the words ânegativeâ and âbarrenâ piercing my thoughts like a branding iron. As the Luna of the Pack, my responsibility was to bear an heir, yet here am I - infertile. I will never be able to bear children of my own. I have never considered myself a believer in miracles, but at this moment, I hope a miracle occurs and the test results reveal âpositiveâ. The weight had been bearing down on me for years, and with every month that went by, the Pack's demands became more intense. I can't help but feel that very soon I'll be sent away from the Pack and the Pack would force my mate to take another woman that can give him an heir. âOur mate loves us and he won't hurt us that wayâ My wolf whispered to me and I smiled sadly. If only that was the truth. He has fallen out of love with me just ...
