Axel POV
As Axel woke up, he was shocked that his wolf had actually listened to him for once and made him end up on the bed and back home. Usually he always woke up naked in the forest!
The perks of having all your staff be werewolves too was that if your wolf arrived by the gate they would open to let you in. All the doors also had extra wolf sized hatches for his wolf to pass through in too!
However Axel wondered what was making his wolf so happy. But then he looked down as his stomach rumbled from hunger.
“The heck Damon, did you not hunt last night? If not what the hell did you spent all night doing?” Axel grumbled as he got off the huge expensive bed to go see if his personal chef had made something. He had made sure that forest had all kinds of wildlife for his wolf to fill that ravenous appetite of his.
However he ended up almost tripping on a packet of freaking meat! Luckily he did not totally fall because of using his quick reflexes. He picked up the packet of packaged raw meat, wondering what the hell Sam`s meat was doing in the middle of his bedroom.
And he had not ordered any this week!
Because of his love for meat being a werewolf, his third in command Sam decided to create a butchery business. And it was working for him as he provided meat to werewolf rogues all over the city who did not feel like hunting.
Taking the packet to the kitchen, Axel wondered if this was his wolf`s way of saying that he wanted Sam`s meat. Was his wolf becoming lazy to hunt? Nah.
Placing the meat in the fridge he headed to go sit by one of the chairs to eat his breakfast. He had another long day today of work. While also trying to handle his wolf whose eagerness to shift again, he could feel from the back of his head.

Selena`s POV
“Oh Anna! Thank you thank you thank you!” I could not contain my excitement as I hugged the lights out of my bestfriend.
“If it was not so far from where I work, I would have come to live with you too,” Anna replied with a wishful sigh while thinking of the place I was now living at.
“Well feel free to come anytime, there is lots of space!” I quickly told her. But somehow I forgo to tell her about my companion,
I had woken up in the morning and ran outside to check on him and was disappointed to find him already gone.
Even now, part of me hoped that he would come back.
After hugging Anna again and collecting everything of mine, the left over clothes and bags. Just as I was about to leave, Anna`s roommate, Diana also arrived.
“Hey Anna,” She quickly greeted me as I greeted her back. She too was just as nice as Anna.
I was lucky to meet them both.
“Anna told me yesterday that you were searching for a Job,” She quickly started,
I was about to tell I now had one, but I let her continue,
“A friend of a friend said that there is a club called hiring. They pay a lot too. Buts it night shift,” Diana quickly said to me,
As soon as I heard night shift I was already in.
I wanted to quickly raise money so that I could continue my degree study which I paused to follow that douchebag.
Double shifts I would definitely be up to doing.
Part of me wanted to go back home not as a screw up. At least if my father would see that I had made something of myself then maybe he would not be so disappointed of me for running away like that.
“Thanks Diana!” I replied and she told she would get the address and text me this coming week.
I first went home, left all my things and would pack them later. Then I headed for work.
“Hello Boss,” I greeted Sam after entering the butchery,
“Sup Selena, so today we got a huge order and my delivery guy is already swamped. So could you deliver this for me.” Sam quickly said to me, pointing to the packages of meat.
“Sure boss!” I replied as he handed me keys to his other car. Luckily I had passed my driver`s license back home. Even though my father never wanted me to get a car, he still wanted me to learn all the skills. Some of them where a bit out there, a smile formed on my face as I recalled him teaching me how to use a bow and arrow, archery. How to throw a dagger and hit the mark to gun lessons. He had trained me everything from young age. With some of the training sessions being a bit too intense for young me who preferred to go out and play with the chickens or whatever kids liked to do.
“So how come there is only one address,” I asked with wide eyes, having expected to deliver all that meat to many places.
Because it was a lot of meat, enough to feed a church.
“Two words, rich people,” Sam first said playfully,
Oh!
“Just kidding but yes he is rich, but is also my friend and he loves eating just as me.” Sam replied with another playful wink.
Shaking my head at him, I then started the hard job of packing the meat into the car, with Sam coming to help here and there when he was not tending to customers.
Once done, I used the car`s gps to follow the way to the address.
All I could say was wow!
I arrived at this huge gates, but my eyes where stuck on the huge giant mansion behind them with a long drive through.
I was this place cost gazillions.
To think there were actually people with this much money, my little country brain could not comprehend.
I did not even have to ask for access as the gates immediately opened. They must have only just seen the butcher`s logo.
After parking the car, a man dressed in chef clothes quickly came to greet me.
I liked his Italian accent.
“Hello mademoiselle, thank Sam for me for making this delivery come earlier. I want to make delicious food for his highness tonight,” The chef spoke while coming to hug me in cheery happiness.
But my eyes widened at hearing ‘his highness’ did a royal person live here? I wondered.
But it was none of my business, so I waited as the chef instructed some of the workers there to help carry the meat packages away.
Once done, they paid and signed then I was on my way.
After work, Axel texted Cade and Sam that he was not joining them at the forest. Today Axel planned to have his wolf shift home, after all, the troublesome wolf seemed to no longer want to hunt. So he had ordered meat from Sam for it to eat and night and if he wanted to run, he could run in the second forest of his backyard mansion.As he got ready to shift and let his wolf take control, his chef entered bringing the plates of delicious fresh raw meat for his wolf to feast on tonight.“Thanks Anton,” Axel said to him, Anton was the only person that Axel trusted to handle his food without poisoning it.“My pleasure sire,” Anton replied walking over to place the last plate with a mountain of meat. But as he did, Axel found himself freezing as he smelt that scent again!What the hell he wondered!First it had been Cade, then Sam and now his own chef too!Dread filled him as he wondered if he was developing an attraction
Waking up the next morning, I was surprised to find myself laying on a pillow with a blanket covering me. My first thought was how had that blanket and that pillow, moved all the way from my bed and where the heck is Wolfie! Seems he had disappeared again. I got up calling for his name but he was no longer here. Maybe he went to hang with his other wolf friends, I thought with a sigh. I guess I was okay with him only coming to me at night just as long as he was safe. Now that I think about, I also had to save money for the Vet. So that he did not get fleas or sick out there. That is if I could even find or catch him during the day. Man being a new pet owner was work. Still I made sure to leave a container with water and another with some canned beef in case he would come during the day with her gone. “Sam see ya, I have to pass by the pet store. I have a new pet now,” I shouted to Sam as workday ended. ‘Good for you Sel! You should bring him one day, I love pets.” He happily
Another morning with Wolfie having disappeared whenever it became day, I sighed as finished drinking my tea. Still though I was happy that he at least seemed to like and eat the pet food. It was the cheapest one there which I could afford instead of having to buy canned foods every day. A smile quickly came on to my face as I received a message from Diana with the club name and address. She had finally got the details from the friend of a friend. Although I knew I was going to be overworking myself with double shifts, I needed the money. The only problem I would have was Wolfie, but I would sure he would wait for me even if I started coming later in the night. Now at work as I stood chopping some meat on a board, I stopped as soon as I heard the voice of a customer I did not have fond memories of. But Sam was not here and so I had to go to the till and serve her. “So you took my advice after all, see how much you really fit in here with all the blood and the meat,” She quickly c
Axel`s POV “Pet FOOD?” Cade asked again before he burst out laughing his heart out. Axel scowled, now regretting having called in his second in command. He only stopped laughing upon hearing Axel`s annoyed growl echo as they sat in his home office back at his Mansion after work. “Sorry boss, so all I have to do is let Cole out and hope Damon will let him follow.” Cade finally said now serious. Axel nodded. Just like their odd friendship in real life while having totally opposite personalities, it was the same for their wolves. Cade`s wolf Cole was the only wolf that Damon never snapped at. It was like he considered the brown wolf his little annoying sibling. But there was trust too, from sharing a traumatic childhood together. “Easy peasy, just say the word and I will be ready,” Cade replied, playfully spinning the chair he sat on around. Just as Axel was about to tell him annoyedly to stop doing that to his chair, he froze. “Wolfie!” A melodic and beautiful voice desperatel
Cade/Cole`s POV It had been hard for Cade to keep up with Damon`s speed but he had managed. Wanting to follow his King`s orders to keep up and not lose sight of his wolf. Unlike the other rogues, Damon even while noticing and knowing Cade`s wolf was trailing behind, he did not attack him. Instead, he let him follow with his focus seeming to be focused elsewhere than caring about being followed. Still even right now Cade felt breathless from all that running. He wondered where they were even in a rush too. What had Damon running so urgently? But as they arrived, Cade scrounged his nose upon smelling the disgusting smell of corpses, a scent that only Vampires gave to wolves. Currently, Rogues had a truce with Vampires. Axel tolerated them as long as they did not cause much disturbance with the humans by killing or feeding too much. So rogues never cared about them. Then why was his King`s wolf-headed for them with murderous rage shining in his eyes? He quickly realized why as he n
Axel`s POV Axel woke up with a raging headache only to find himself sleeping on the floor right by his bedroom door. “Next time try and reach the bed buddy,” He scowled wondering why his wolf had made him sleep on the floor right by the door instead of the bed. He got up fully naked in his human form, which is what always happened as the shift made them rip all their clothes off. But very disgusting was the red blood covering his body and it stunk like 100-year-old dead corpses. Axel quickly knew it was Vampire blood. But he was not in the mood to even wonder what his wolf had been up to, he would question Cade later and hope he had successfully managed to follow Damon last night. Deciding to take a bath first and clean himself, Axel opened the door to his bedroom and entered. He paused midway just as he passed his bed as there was someone sleeping there! As he took in their features, he found himself mesmerized by how beautiful they were. Soft silky long midnight black hair, a h
Selena`s POV You know when I had closed my eyes and gone unconscious. I had thought that would be the end. That I had reached death`s door. First had been the void of darkness, which I had found myself swimming in endlessly. Suddenly a circle had appeared and sucked me into a series of confusing visions. The first one had been of the moon. I stood in space and saw a small piece of the moon breaking off and falling down to earth. It rained down like a meteorite and absorbed itself right into the womb of a beautiful majestic-looking woman. One who was relaxedly sitting and resting near a lake. The woman quickly clutched her stomach as if she had felt it, something entering and merging with her unborn baby. She stood up and turned around, with a look of emergency, as if to go see someone about what had just happened and the vision ended. I was back in the darkness again. “Blessed Moonchild, Your powers are awakening. Your mate is the Key.” I heard, a voice, an echo sounding
Back at Magna club “I blame Agatha for sending that girl here!” Jefa snapped while trying to think of how to fix this after finding the dead Prince`s body. “If the Vampire King learns that his son died here, he will definitely give us punishments to last lifetimes.” Another voice spoke filled with fear. “I just do not understand how could she, a weak human have been able to plunge wood into the Prince Alaric`s heart so easily? Just does not make sense.” Another added. “Jefa, boss what should we do with his majesty’s body.” The bouncer also asked. “Lets leave it out in the sun. It will turn to ash and then maybe we can pretend that the Prince was never here!” Jefa spoke feeling proud of his plan. But he was also worried about the other royal whom the Prince had come with, another royal…his cousin. He had run off after the girl with the two vampire royal guards and they never came back. “Had the girl killed them off too? Was she a hunter?” Jefa wondered to himself also feeling
