Eero's perspective“Let's go and meet the Alpha King. He must be very worried about my safety,” I initiated, dragging Aelice away from Claudius.For a short period of time, it was just the clacking of our heels echoing in the empty, silent corridors, until she halted and turned to me, giving into her curiosity.“Claudius Cormac was the one who brought you to safety?” Aelice inquired in disbelief."Yes, it's him." I admitted honestly as she had saw me and Claudius coming out of the same room. There was no point lying to her now.“We were dancing when the attack happened. Everything just happened in a blur, and the next thing I knew was that I was in the study with him.”"Oh, how lucky! This is really gentlemanlike of him!" Aelice nodded her head, smiling. But from Aelice's eyes, I could tell that she didn't buy my story completely.After meeting the Alpha King and assuring him that everything was all right with me, I excused myself and retreated to my room.*****On my way to the dinin
Eero's perspectiveI nodded numbly as Claudius' eyes shot dagger at me.“I know a dignified shifter from a prominent family. His name is Miguel. I see the two of you will make a good pair. Also, he'll be a sure help to ensure your smooth ascendence to the throne.” The Alpha King put down his knife and forks, proposing seriously.I stopped cutting the pancake on my plate, my eyes fluttering up to Claudius and then bouncing to my expectant father."Tell me when you feel ready about it. I'll hook you up with him.” He continued, not intending to drop the topic unless I voiced out a positive response.Left without a choice, I wetted my lower lip and beamed."I'm fine with it. I'd like to meet him and see if I want him as a second chance mate.”I gripped on my knife as my heart thudded loudly. After breathing out slowly to keep myself composed, I chose to fix my eyes on my plate when Claudius stormed out from the dining hall.“You'll see if you want him as a second chance mate? Liar! You ca
Eero's perspective“Your grace, I wish for you not to plant false hope into my daughter's head." Beta Octavio remarked cynically. "Aelice's place will always be in the kitchen serving her husband, and in the bed giving him heirs. You'll get tossed back into that place too.”Irritated by Octavio's vile words, I was about to advance and struck the beta when my arm got snagged by a hand. It seized me back on my spot.“Engaging in a barbaric and ghastly act isn't something you should be doing on your first day of a new job.” A low, familiar voice sounded beside m
Claudius' perspectiveAfter exchanging pleansantries with the board members briefly, I excused myself and left the meeting hall.Caspian was waiting for me in the coffee shop down the RGC building."Here." He pushed an envelope towards me as I took my seat. "It was delivered to the Howling Island anonymously. Addressed to you."My hand halted in the air when I was about to beckon to the waiter. Subconsciously, I sensed something unusual about this letter.
Claudius' perspective“Hey, Alpha Claudius. I didn't expect you'd be back so soon.” Gamma Logan greeted me as I marched straight into my mini bar.Opening a bottle of rum, I quaffed half of it before speaking.“Go and find out where this picture comes from.” I tossed the picture to him before swallowing another gulp of liquor down my throat.“Wow, a cute pup!" Logan exclaimed in excitement as he caught the picture."But isn't this your pup, Alpha?”
Eero's perspective“What's wrong?” I got a little worried as she had never been like this."Oh...N-Nothing..." Aelice snapped back, shaking her head.“Have you ever gone out and search for your mate, Aelice?” I inquired as I walked towards the walk-in closet.“No. I got no choice about that.”“Huh? What do you mean by that?”
Eero's perspective“You know what? I'm gonna let you keep me as your dirty little secret." Claudius bent over to whisper into my ears, arousing a flux of heat in my system.Unable to figure out his real intention behind this, I simply pinned an inquiring look at him."I'll stay away from you during the day. But at night, I want you to be all mine. What do you say?" He continued to propose, but his tone sounded more like a command."This is a trap, wolf. If you react to this, we're once again handing the dominant power back to him." I threatened my wolf as she was about to get excited with Claudius' terrible proposal.“Thanks for the offer, but I'm not gonna go with that.” I declined before my wolf even agreed to get on board with me.“What a straight and cruel rejection! You sure you don't want to think about this first?” Claudius flashed a condescending smile."Get out of my way, Claudius! I command you!" I had to leave here before things got out of control."What's the rush, your gr
Eero's perspective“That's what you're having in mind, isn't it?” I asked back before licking the pre-cum off the head of his penis.“Fuck… Eero.”“Shh… hush it, Claudius.” I teased him and then claimed the entirety of his length, until his tip was choking the wall of my throat.Tears welled up in my eyes when he roughly thrust himself against my mouth, catching me off-guard.Whacking his butt to make him stop, I heard him laugh before he feasted back on my pussy.He sniffed my cunt and spat at it that he spread and crossed my flesh with three fingers, stretching me to the core.I spluttered him out of my mouth, head falling back on the pillow.Claudius long and impressive size dangled like a baby's toys as he continued to pleasure me with oral sex. Beating his meat, I heard him cursing.“I'm gonna make sure this room is soundproof. I've been missing your screaming so much.”I had to bite the pillow on my face as my body convulsed with the first orgasm for the night. But it was soon t
Eero's PerspectiveI didn't want to get up from the bed. The softness of the mattress was tempting me and on top of that, my eyelids felt heavy to open. My mind had already agreed that I'd stay in bed for another hour after I checked the time when I felt my stomach churning. It stopped me from my track, but chose to shrug it off until a squeaky feeling came over me and I couldn't find the urge to throw up.I run fast to the bathroom and vomit whatever is left in my stomach. After rinsing my mouth, I checked my reflection in the mirror."But I don't look sick." I checked my temperature too and I don't feel feverish."Did I eat something last night that could upset my stomach?" I whispered to myself. I opened the drawer to grab an ointment that I could use for my tummy when I saw an unopened box of tampons.I rushed out of the bathroom to grab my phone on the bedside table."I'm three weeks delayed with my period. My period n
ClaudiusSeeing that the tracker that I asked Caspian to chip on Octavio's skin after he was locked in the cell was moving towards the forest. I got up from my seat and prepared myself to come after him to get my pup back and bring Perseus to safety."I don't get it," Caspian said."This part of this forest where Octavio is heading to is a dead end," he hummed. I looked down at Caspian."What do you mean by it's a dead end?""Alpha, there is no escape route. Octavio knows the Regulus territory better than anyone. It's impossible that he isn't aware that when he run to do this forest, our deltas would easily corner him, and avoid being captured by our deltas. The only thing left to do is to jump from the cliff."My lips parted in shock."I know what that old hog is about to do," I said.Eero grabbed my arm to make me face her. "You do? What is it?"But how can I tell her Octavio's evil
Eero's PerspectiveWhenever Perseus sleeps with me. I would wake up to his tiny arms tightly wrapped around my waist while his face was buried in my arm. It's the muscle cramps and the numbing sensation that wakes me up earlier than usual, and so when I didn't feel him using my arm as his pillow, I instinctively called for his name before I could open my arm."Mate, shh. He's still sleeping," Claudius said in a low voice.I couldn't help but smile and silently giggle as I saw how Perseus had wrapped his arm around his father's upper body."He's hugging me so tightly that I could barely breathe, but I can't dare whine. I like feeling this little pup in my arm," he said to me.Perseus looks tiny in Claudius' arms, way more fragile looking compared to when he is in my arms."Don't move. I'll take a picture of you two," I said to him and slowly got up, moving carefully so the noise wouldn't wake up our son.Cla
Eero's PerspectiveCaspian and Miguel cleared their throat in a not-so-subtle way in an attempt to make me and Claudius break away from the hug that we were sharing."I think I caught a cold. I can't stop coughing," Caspian said again while he continued to force himself to cough. I chuckled and attempted to push Claudius away."They are hinting that we should stop flirting in front of them," I whispered to Claudius."I don't give a damn about them, Eero." "Why don't you two search for your fated mate or second chance mate so you won't be jealous anymore?" Claudius asked Caspian."Did you think that I'm not trying to do that? I'm desperately looking for my fate mate, dude, but maybe if you'd stop dragging my ass in different places then I'll be able to find her."Our eyes then gathered to look at Miguel, who was enjoying his toasted marshmallow. I'm in no rush to look for her. It's called fated mates, when the timing i
Eero's Perspective"I had to come here to tell you that dinner is waiting for us," Claudius said while his eyes sharply traced the newly-founded distance between me and Miguel."Oh, yes, because we don't have enough omegas around the realm which is why the Alpha picked us himself for dinner," Miguel whispered sarcastically."Were you trying to say something, Blackthorn?" Miguel grinned and shook his head."Did you hear me say something?" Claudius glared at Miguel even more."I was starving, I could eat a whole cow. I hope you prepared a feast for me, Claudius?" Miguel flashed a teasing smile at my mate."It's the least you could offer after I did the favor that you asked me years ago.""Every meal in the realm is considered a feast, but if you're craving for a particular dish that wasn't served at the buffet. You could request that from our private chef. They will accommodate any of your cravings.""Ah
Eero's PerspectiveI narrowed my eyes at Claudius and hit his chest. My mate laughed at me before he pulled me closer to his chest. He gently sniffed the scent of my hair and then I felt him kiss my forehead."Your legs are still shaking," he whispered laughing. I raised my hand to hit him again, but he skillfully caught it. His fingers caged my wrist and pinned it back on the bed, within a blink of an eye. Claudius was back on top of me. His manhood poking my thighs."Let me rest, will you, please? I missed you too. I miss making love to you, but I'll end up limping if we do it again. I'm sore down there.""Let me check," he said. Claudius moved fast down. My lips twitched in pain and the muscles in my face twisted."It's all red and swollen. Taking a cold bath will soothe you. Should I wash you? Or do you want to take a nap first?" He asked. The sun outside was slowly leaving the sky. In an hour, it'll be dinner time.&nb
Eero's PerspectiveClaudius smirked at me. I narrowed my eyes at him. He walks to get a bottle of his whiskey. Claudius drinks straight from it."This is why you're the perfect mate for me," he said suddenly."You were never afraid of me. You'd rather face my wrath than let me do things which you view immoral. Hurting a pup who won't be able to defend himself is wrong.""Wrong," I seconded."I don't know how long you'll be the Alpha of Regulus, but I don't want you to be remembered by the shifters as a cruel one."I walk towards my mate. I took the liquor from his hand and it slipped smoothly from his finger because Claudius allowed me to take it away.I cupped his cheeks and rested my forehead against his."The pack has a lot of enemies. I don't want our pack members and the Alpha allies to become our enemies because of your temper and ruthlessness, Claudius. Being the Alpha King may feel like you have abso
Eero's Perspective Perseus who was holding the hem of my blouse let go of it slowly. Fear thumped at my chest as confusion and hurt succumbed to him. "P-Pup, I can explain to you. I-I will explain to you. I-I didn't mean to lie to you." "Does Papa Miguel know that I'm not his?" He asked. Perseus looked and sounded like he was close to crying. "Your Papa Miguel knows that you're not his son." "And Grandpa Codrus? How about my grandparents from Papa Miguel's side? Do they know that I'm not their real grandchildren?" "Pup, does this really matter—""It does, Mama. I need to know if all of you were lying to me." "They know. Our closest family members know. Your Grandpa Codrus and I hide the truth from the rest of the pack members of Regulus and Blackthorn, but those whom we thought should know, they know the truth about your real identity." "T-Then do you plan to tell me that the shifter you introduced to me as my Uncle was my father?" Anger began to color my pup's eyes and I was
Eero's PerspectiveWhen I felt our kissing was getting more intense and knew that it would lead us naked on top of the bed. I had to stop Claudius by pulling my lips from him. My mate frowned. He was about to kiss me again, but I took a step backward to distance myself from him."Eero, you don't like my kisses anymore?" He said, almost pouting his lips.I cupped his cheeks and pecked on his swollen and reddish lips."You look just like your son when sulking," I said to him.
