Eero's perspective If Perseus was in a place near me, I would be able to feel him. Our bond will lead me to where he was, and he's a little baby, an hour old baby, he couldn't have gotten far by himself. “He was stolen from me,” I mumbled my realization so loud that it stopped Cielo from looking around the place. “There is no way I'd lose him unless he was taken from me… a-and how come that we didn't wake up when he has been taken away from u-us?” Cielo was a light sleeper. If the kidnapper didn't wake me up when he was taking my son from me, it would have woken Cielo for sure. “Luna Eero,” Cielo mumbled nervously. She showed me a vial. “What's that thing?” “It's a potion used to make shifters fall into a deep slumber,” she answered. My heart skipped a beat, as it only confirmed my hunch that Perseus was taken away from me. “B-But who would have taken Perseus from you? Ameo is already dead and Serra is in the pack…" “Vera. She is the only one who could have done this
Eero's perspective When a child loses their mother, in the blink of an eye, the world becomes a strange place in their eyes, but if it's a mother who loses her child, not only does it become a strange place, but for them, the world will stop completely. Cielo sighed, holding a tray in her hand, while the one that she served me for lunch remained untouched by me. I knew that she was getting déjà vu. “You were like this when you first got here. You don't talk to anyone, and you never eat your food.” Claudius walked in. It felt like seeing him for the first time after we had buried our firstborn pup. “Leave us alone, Cielo,” he said. Not only did Claudius grow cold and distant towards me. He was doing the same thing to Cielo. “Alpha Claudius…" “Do you want me to banish you from my pack, or you'll do just as I say? Have you forgotten, you were at fault too? If you didn't fall asleep. Perseus wouldn't be taken away and killed!” He hissed at Cielo. I looked at her and nodded
Eero's perspective It's been nearly a month since all of us set foot on Howling Island, and none of us have seen progress. Claudius never left the island. He was casting me out of the meeting with his small council. It was Adeline that he was with 24/7. “You are his beta and best friend. He tells you everything that's going on in his head and he loathes me.” “The Alpha does not loathe you,” Caspian cut me off. We were coming back from the daily training of our delta and warriors to keep them in shape. “Well, he does. He informed me that himself.” “And you believed that?” “Why shouldn't I? In case you're not aware, Claudius had distanced himself from me after our firstborn died. He found his true mate here and has been fucking here since we got here.” I showed him my third finger. “Claudius seizes the opportunity to hurt me whenever he was mad, and he raped me, multiple times.” I bit my lower chip after I said those. “He did what to you, Luna?” “It was a duty of mine t
Claudius' perspectivePlaying with the ring on my finger as I listen to my strategist come up with a plan how we'll conquer the realm by taking over the port across the Wilde seas. I find myself rolling my eyes at him.“If I take your advice to win this town and small pack, bit by bit. It would take me years before I get back to the realm and Regulus pack,” I snapped as my patience had run thin.“Alpha, you have hundreds of skillful deltas and warriors. Four fleets, but Regulus has thousands of deltas and warriors who'll do anything to protect the Alpha King, and their fleets, they have hundreds.” Gregor Conoire explained.“You come here to take back the realm and rule over the Regulus pack, not to destroy it, Alpha,” Caspian reminded me.“If you went ahead with your plan to challenge the Alpha King with a face-to-face battle. This will be a losing battle for us from the very beginning,”
Claudius' perspectiveAfter spending the rest of the day searching for Eero outside the manor and in the nearby forest and sea, we still couldn't find her anywhere.“Tillula has something to say to you, Alpha,” Cielo told me as she entered my room and behind her was another woman.I stopped pacing on my balcony and still to accommodate my mage.“You're a mage. Did you come up with a way to find my Luna?”“No, Alpha… and I am afraid that my ability won't help you find her, but I want to come clean. I want the truth to come out from me.”My forehead furrowed.“Why? Did you help her escape from me?” She remained silent.“You did?!”“Not exactly like that, Alpha,” Cielo attempted to calm me down, but I threw a dagger look at her and she shut her mouth.“Two weeks ago. The Luna asked me to wield an amu
Eero's perspectiveAs my consciousness sipped right back to me, my hand held the spot on my neck where I was shot with a needle that made me faint.Remembering that it's the last thing that happened to me, I got up feeling scared that I was being held captive.“What the hell is going on? Where am I?” I muttered to myself. I looked around and all that I could see around me was luxury.The powder blue silk material of the ankle length dress that I was wearing felt right around my body.
Eero's perspectiveSilence filled the Harren Hall. Everyone was waiting for the Alpha King to take those words back.“Alpha King, what is this nonsense that you're talking about?” Octavio was the first to say something that made me gaze up in his direction.He stepped near me. “Tell the Masters to bring back the Alpha King to his room. I think he had too much of wine and drank.”“My Lady, apology for the misunderstanding. He does not mean any of that. The Alpha King just
Claudius' perspectiveOne week has passed since Eero left the manor and up to now, Caspian and I couldn't find traces of her.“Alpha, are you even listening to me?” Caspian asked, earning a glance at me.“Yes, please go on.” He placed the miniature of our fleet down on the map and sighs.“You were listening to me?”“Yes, so carry on with what you're talking about,” I said
