Lenora's POV

The sheets beside me were cold, the imprint of Zade's body long gone. My fingers traced the empty space, frustration burning low in my stomach.

Again.

He'd done it again…. Kissed me like I was the air he needed to breathe, but all of a sudden, he vanished before dawn like a thief. What exactly is wrong with him? I asked no one in particular as I glared daggers at the empty space, like it was Zade.

“Do you think he's running away from us?” Zoey asked, but I didn't answer. I couldn't even come up with any answer, but deep down, I know that he was running away from me.

With a loud groan, I dragged myself out of bed, my body still humming from his actions last night. The memory of his hands, his mouth, the way he'd groaned against my lips like he was an infant who'd been starved of his mother's breasts. His actions last night were all that seared into my skin. I was expecting him to take things forward. I was expecting him to take me, to do whatever he wanted with me,

  • The Rise Of The Betrayed Luna   THE TATTOO

    Melissa's POV In no time, I arrived at Alpha Axel's door and I wanted to knock, but I decided against it. It may come off as a rude act, but who cares? He's my mate after all. Taking a deep breath, I pushed the door. "You sent for me, Alpha." I announced as soon as I got into his chambers and he turned from the window, to be able to stare at me, and like always, my brain short-circuited for a second. It wasn't fair, really. I mean some people had to work hard for that kind of presence- gym routines, expensive cologne, carefully styled hair but Axel just existed even without trying and the world bent around him. It just occurred to me that I haven't admired this way in a long time. Well, he was tall, though not in an exaggerated, storybook way, but in that stand-next-to-him-and-feel-your neck-craning kind of way. His shirt sleeves were rolled up to his forearms, revealing the kind of muscle that came from actual labor, not just lifting weights for show. There was a faint sc

  • The Rise Of The Betrayed Luna   FIND HER

    Axel’s POV The sharp crack of Melissa's slap still burned on my cheek long after the door slammed shut behind her. The sting from her hit was nothing compared to the venom in her words. ‘Go your barren woman if you are horny.’ I exhaled through my nose, my fingers flexing against my thighs. My wolf snarled in the back of my mind. “You went too far, Axel.” “Shut up,” I shot back, but he didn’t. He never did, until he let out his anger. “She carries your child, you fool. She is carrying your heir. And you throw Lenora’s name in her face like it’s nothing?” I clenched my jaw. He wasn't wrong, but he wasn't right either and that was the problem. My wolf despised Melissa from the moment I cheated on my former mate with her. He claimed she was selfish and stupid and not fit to be the mother of my heir, he wanted to wait until whenever the moon goddess blesses Lenora, but even he couldn't stomach this. He couldn't stomach the fact that I tattooed Lenora's name on my neck some days

  • The Rise Of The Betrayed Luna   ZADE WILL BE FINE

    Lenora's POV Two hours. That’s how long it had been since the guard burst into Zade’s study, breathless with warnings of a rogue attack. Two hours since he’d vanished into the day without a backward glance. I paced the room, my fingers twisting together. The mind link….our lifeline….remained silent, no matter how desperately I reached through the bond. Where are you? Every second stretched into an eternity. If the rogues had ambushed him… if they’d found a way to sever our connection… I swallowed hard. He has to come back. I walked towards Luna Ophelia's direction. “Do you think he's fine?” I asked her for the umpteenth time and she took my hands into hers and gave it a gentle squeeze. “Come on, Nora,” she chuckled lightly. Somehow, I've come to love the fact that she addresses me as Nora. It reminds me of my mom. She was the only one who has ever called me that name. And whenever someone else tried to call me that name, I always got angry, but right now, I wasn't pisse

  • The Rise Of The Betrayed Luna   QUEEN BEE vs THE LUNA

    Lenora's POV “Good day, ma'am, and welcome to Chrome Heart Shopping mall.” The sales representative said to me as soon as I got into the mall and I smiled softly at her. “Good day to you.” I asked, my eyes darting around the mall in search of anything that might catch my attention. “What would you like to get?” She asked me and I took my attention back to her. I might just trust her to show me the best gifts they have here. “Well, I'd like to get some bags, shoes and dresses too.” I answered with a smile as usual. “Trust me, ma'am, you are at the right place.” She smiled warmly at me. “Come with me.” She gestured and I walked behind her. Mara had long gone to the other section to get what she needed. “Awwwn!” I cooed as I saw a necklace that was out on display and immediately it caught my eyes. It reminded me of the Mountain Heart Necklace, the same one that Axel had ‘stolen’ from Charlotte. “Do you like it, ma'am?” The young lady asked and I nodded. “Of course

  • The Rise Of The Betrayed Luna   ARE YOU DEAF?

    Lenora's POV The scent of paper and ink wrapped around me like a cloak as I stepped into the bookstore, a quiet refuge from the noisy city outside. The bell above the door chimed softly, announcing my arrival. My fingers trailed along the spines of well loved novels as I made my way deeper inside, my heart already thrumming with anticipation of getting my favourite book. I had spent weeks counting down to this day. Marietta, my favorite author, had announced her newest release on social media, and the moment the announcement went live, I marked the date in my calendar, already eager to get it. “Auctioned To My Alpha Professor.” The title alone sent a thrill through me. Heaven knows I couldn't wait to read it. I couldn't wait to read another masterpiece from her. And now, finally, it was here. The thought alone sent a wave of pleasure and excitement through me. Behind the counter sat an elderly woman, her silver hair pulled into a neat bun, and a pair of medicated glasses pe

  • The Rise Of The Betrayed Luna   YOU ARE STILL HIS FIRST LOVE

    Talia's POV “Are you going to let that bitch go, after embarrassing you before Lady Lydia and that shop attendant, huh ?” My wolf asked me for the umpteenth time, but I couldn't answer. Heck, I couldn't form any words. How could I answer when I was still seething with anger? I was fucking furious and I wished I hadn't walked away without hitting her. That bitch! How could she do such a thing? Well, it's not too late. Was I going to let her go easily after what she did to me? No fucking way! She embarrassed me before Lady Lydia and other people in the mall and I'm gonna make her pay for everything, but how? Zariel has been unreachable for the past few days! He's the only one who can help me out with the best idea for a punishment, but the fool is nowhere to be found. Anyways, it'll be better if he's dead. He's driving me crazy every minute."How about taking a quick break in the meantime? Maybe stop at that canteen? You know, sometimes stepping away is the best way to clear

  • The Rise Of The Betrayed Luna   CUT THE PRETENSE

    Lenora's POV The world narrowed to the heat of his mouth, the roughness of his grip, the shock that froze me in place. It wasn’t just an ordinary kiss….it was a claim. A brutal and unapologetic one. “What are you doing, Lenora? Come to your fucking senses!” Zoey's screams pulled me out of my head and almost immediately, I tore my lips away from his. And the next minute, my palms collided with his face. “Are you fucking crazy?” I hissed through gritted teeth. He didn't even look remorseful at what he did. Instead he took his hands to his face and palmed it in a tender way. “How dare you kiss me?” “Fuck, that was new!” He winked while licking his lips. All I felt was anger. I wished I could slap him again. “The next time you lay those filthy hands on me, Derek, I'll make sure you never use them again.” I spat again and I tried to walk away from him, but he held my hands in a way that I couldn't move it. “Let go of me, Derek!” I yelped in pain, but he didn't bulge. Instead

    Lenora's POV “Shut up, Talia.” Luna Ophelia hissed through gritted teeth before taking her attention back to me. She took a step closer. “Tell me the truth, Lenora, did you kiss him?” I cleared my throat before starting. “First of all, Luna, it's not what it seems. I can explain if you want me to….” “There is nothing to explain, bitch. You kissed him. I saw everything. I even brought a proof, because I know that you were going to lie about it. You are a two-faced whore. You….” Before she could finish her statement, my palms collided with her face. She looked stunned. “Did you just slap me, bitch?” She hissed through gritted teeth as she roughly caressed her face, her eyes almost glistening with tears, but it was gone the moment she blinked her eyes. “Of course, Talia and I will do it again and again if you don't stop talking. Now get out of here.” I snapped. “You can't send me away. This is Zade's house and I am his first love.” She snapped and all I could do was roll my eyes

  • The Rise Of The Betrayed Luna   DO NOT TRY ANYTHING FUNNY

    Princess Lara's Point Of View It's either now or never. I can't let my father dictate my life for me. I have someone I love and I won't let him ship me like I'm some goods to a beast like Alpha Zade. “Relax, Lara. You shouldn't call him a beast yet. You haven't had any dealings with him.” Lyra said to me, but I rolled my eyes. “Trust me, Lyra, he's a beast. No one has ever come in contact with him and survived it. He is.” “Well, you wouldn't say that unless someone had. So relax. He might not even be as bad as you painted him.” “I don't care to know, Lyra. I can't get married to him. I have to leave.” “Come on, Lara, don't do something that you are gonna regret later.” she pleaded, but I turned deaf ears to her pleas and before I could help it, I bolted for the door. But that was the worst mistake I've ever made in my life, because the next minute, I felt a sharp pain in my neck. I needed no soothsayer to tell me that it was my father. “Your Majesty….”“Where do you think y

    Talia's Point Of View I didn’t know how long I’d been out, but the sound of knocking jerked me awake. I sat up too fast, and a sharp pain shot through my head. Wincing, I grabbed my temples, in an effort to alleviate the pain, but it did nothing to help the pain. I gazed around the room trying to recall how I ended up here and almost immediately, the memories hit me like a wave. I gritted my teeth in anger. That bitch! She had come to my house some hours ago, and pretended to want to talk to me, yet she had drugged me and dragged me here. I'll never forgive her for this. I need to get out of here, but how? I quickly stared around the room, trying to find any object that I'll use to hit whoever comes in. Thanks, I found a hockey stick and very quickly, I hid it under the pillows. I don't care who is gonna come in, but I'll hit them. I don't care if it's gonna be Kathryn. After all, that bitch deserved to die. She has done more than enough already. She has hurt me more t

    Princess Lara's Point Of View (6) Today is Alpha Zade's Mating ceremony? I couldn't believe my ears. No, I didn't want to believe it. “Are you sure about this, Sara?” “Yes, my Princess. The news was published on the television. And it was announced by a verified Blog, therefore I have a feeling that it's true. Today is indeed his mating ceremony.” Wait a minute. Alpha Zade has a mate, yet he has decided to get married to me? Or did he not care about his mate's feelings? Did the poor woman, whoever she is, even have any idea that her mate was getting married to the Princess of Samaria Pack in the next full moon night? “What if she knows about it, yet she still agreed to it?” Lyra mumbled? “She might love him and wouldn't mind. Don't you think so?” Goodness! I don't want to believe that she'll really agree to it. I took my attention back to Sara. “Who is the woman in question?” “Her name wasn't published, nor was her picture uploaded either.” She replied and I rolled my eyes. C

    Princess Lara's Point Of View (5) “And where the hell are you coming from, Lara?” A familiar voice sounded behind me just when I was about to go into my room and I rolled my eyes. What exactly is this bitch trying to gain? She isn't even the Queen yet she's already acting like an all-powerful bitch.As usual, I ignored her and made to enter my room, but her filthy hands shot out and stopped me. Anger washed over me, but I didn't turn to face her. “Take those filthy hands off me right now!” I hissed through gritted teeth and almost immediately, she let go of me. She didn't need to be told twice. Now I turned around to face her. “What were you saying, Morana?” “I'm sure you aren't deaf. Where the hell were you coming from? Have you gone to meet your lover again?” What the hell has gone into this bitch? How could she be so stubborn and deaf at the same time? My father has warned her to refrain from getting involved in matters that don't concern her, yet she never seems to listen.

  • The Rise Of The Betrayed Luna   ZARA AND GIANNA

    Princess Lara's Point Of View (4) I tried calling Dexter's phone, but it didn't go through and therefore I decided to let him be and call him later. Since I was bored, I decided to take a walk around the palace walls. “Sara?” I called my personal maid and she came running to meet me. “Yes, my Princess.” As usual, she had a smile on her face. I must boldly say she is the one person who has taught me to smile. I emulated the habit of smiling from her. I could remember that day she came into the Kingdom for the first time. Even when she still worked as an ordinary maid, she had a smile on her face. “I want to take a stroll around the Pack. Mind joining me?” It wasn't an order like other Princess would have done. It was a request. Boy, I rarely order her around. And she never fails to remind me that I was her master and thus I have every right to do whatever I want with her, but I don't ever want to do that. After all, my mother never did. That was one reason why she was loved by

  • The Rise Of The Betrayed Luna   YOU ARE MINE NOW

    Lenora's Point Of View I tilted my head to the side to see who just spoke up and it was none other than Axel's Beta, Derek and immediately, a fresh wave of anger washed over me. What the heck? What was he doing here? How did he find me here?Wait a minute….how did he even get here? I thought there were guards at the gate at all times! “What the fuck are you doing here, Derek?” I hissed through gritted teeth, but he ignored me. “I do not agree with the union.” Derek repeated as he sauntered closer. “I'd rather die than let this union go on.” “Too bad you don't tell us what to do.” I hissed. “I have always loved you, Lenora. Now you are getting married to someone else?” I rolled my eyes. “You fool. He is my mate!” I snapped and he burst into laughter. “He may be your mate, but I'm sure he doesn't love you the way I do. I am in love with you, Lenora. Don't you….” “Leave Derek!” I ordered, but he didn't bulge. “I'm not leaving without you, Lenora. You are coming with me, whet

    Talia's POV I jolted awake as violent knocking pounded against my door. With a loud groan, I dragged myself out of bed, my mind still foggy with sleep. Just who the hell is banging on my door like a madman and at such an hour? I wasn't expecting any visitors, therefore who could it be? “Open the fucking door, Talia!!!” My mother's voice tore me away from my thoughts and my brows knitted into a frown. By the gods, what is she doing here? “I think the question should be how did she find you here?” My wolf corrected and I nodded in agreement. How did she find me here? I'd made sure I didn't go back home to meet her immediately I got back to the Pack, because I wanted to stay away from her forever. I feared that she'd trace my location and find out where I'm living. But now, she's standing outside my door? How? I contemplated on opening the door for her, because I didn't want to set my eyes on her ever again, but after figuring out that she's disturbing the neighbours, I deci

    Princess Lara's POV (3) I rose up from the floor to leave, but my father's voice came up, thereby making me halt in my steps. “I'll be going away for a while.” “What for?” I asked even though I didn't turn to stare at him. One thing about him was that he never forgets to tell me about his plans and I guess that's one of the reasons why our relationship isn't strained completely. “But he didn't tell you about his plans to get you married to Alpha Zade.” Lyra whispered, amusement dangling in her voice and I rolled my eyes. She always finds a way to get on my nerves and I loved her for it. That's one reason why our relationship is cool. “Of course he wouldn't say anything about it because he knows that I wouldn't agree to it.” I hissed through gritted teeth. My father's voice tore me away from my thoughts. “The Alpha's Summit. It's tomorrow.” “And since when did you start attending the annual Alpha's Summit?” This time I turned around to stare at him.
