After talking with Lidia, it was clear to me that getting rid of Alexander was not going to be easy. I tried my best to avoid him at every turn, but it seemed like he was always one step ahead of me. Everywhere I went, there he was, his piercing gaze following me wherever I went.

But what troubled me even more was the sudden change in Allen's behaviour. He had always been kind towards me in a friendly way since our marriage was not a romantic one at all. But lately, he had been surprisingly affectionate, showering me with attention and care whenever Alexander was around.

As I made our way to dinner with the royal pack members and elders, I couldn't shake off the strange feeling that something wasn't right. And then I saw her—one of the maids talking to someone in a dark cloak. As I approached them, the mysterious figure quickly slipped away into the shadows.

"Who were you talking to?" I asked the maid, trying to keep my voice steady, not wanting to scare her.

"Oh, just a friend," she

    I watch my twins playing with their toys in the playroom. Their laughter fills the room, momentarily distracting me from the events of last night. I can't get the image of that mysterious person talking to the maid. Who could it be? And what were they discussing? I've replayed it a million times in my head, trying to think of anything that I could have missed that might help identify that person, but no matter how much I tried, there was nothing.But as I sit here, watching my children's innocent joy, my thoughts drift to a different memory- the day I gave birth to them. The fear and anxiety that consumed me as I lay in the hospital bed, waiting for them to arrive. All I could think about was how Cassandra had died in childbirth.I remember the pain and uncertainty of those hours, wondering if history would repeat itself. But they entered the world healthy and perfect. The relief and overwhelming love that flooded my heart are feelings I will never forget. I had done it all on my own

    "I think Rebecca might have had something to do with what happened last night."Victor raised an eyebrow, clearly taken aback by my accusation. "What makes you say that, Olivia?"I took a deep breath before continuing. "Rebecca has always had a thing for Alexander. I know that she is the one that framed me for Cassandra's death, and I now believe that she had something to do with that.”Victor's expression darkened as he processed my words. "I will have someone contact Rebecca's family to find out her whereabouts. We need to get to the bottom of this."I nodded in agreement. "Thank you, Victor. I just want justice for what happened to Lidia and Cassandra as well.""We are doing everything we can," Victor assured me. "We were unable to find the maid who gave Lidia the wine last night, but our search is ongoing. I promise you, Olivia, we will not rest until we have answers."As I turned to leave, Victor called out to me. "Olivia, wait." I paused, turning back to face him."I know last n

    Alexanders pov. I couldn't shake the image of Fay's fully healed hand from my mind as I made my way to Victor's office. I had never seen anything like it before. We healed fast, but not like that, and the fact that there was no scarring when there should have been left me with so many questions. If Wolfban was in the wine she spilt on herself last night, then her hand would take longer than normal to heal, and it would have left scaling behind. And the fact that she had children as well had my mind going crazy.As I entered Victor's office, he motioned for me to take a seat. His stern expression told me that this meeting was not going to be pleasant."Alpha Alexander," Victor began, his voice cold and authoritative. "Beta Allen has informed me that you were in a part of the palace where you are not allowed. If you ever disobey my orders again, I will have no choice but to remove you from my kingdom.""I'm sorry, Victor. It was just a misunderstanding. I got lost and ran into Fay. I a

    Alexanders povBut I knew better than to disobey Fay's wishes. There was a reason she kept her face hidden, and I needed to respect that I couldn't let my wolf take over here even if I did want to see her face and had come so close to seeing it already today. So, instead, I shielded her from the view of the others while she fixed her mask."Are you okay?" I asked softly as she stood back up, readjusting her mask.She nodded, a hint of gratitude in her eyes as she glanced at me. "Thank you."Before I could reply, my attention was drawn to the guard getting up off the ground. Anger boiled within me as I marched towards him, grabbing him by the throat and pinning him against a tree."How dare you lay a hand on the princess and accuse her of such things!" I growled menacingly, my voice filled with fury.The guard sputtered and struggled against my grip, fear in his eyes. But I held firm, unwilling to let him go. Every inch of me wanted to rip his head clean from his shoulder for what he h

    Olivia's povAllen led me away from the garden. I could feel my inner wolf, Aura, whispering in my head. "Our mate saved us," she repeated over and over. But I pushed the thoughts away. As soon as we were away from everyone, Allen turned to me. “I don't want you near Alexander again”, he stated firmly with a hint of jealousy in his voice.I raised my eyebrows at him, unsure of where this was coming from. “I don't want him near me, but if it wasn't for him, then I would have been attacked by that guard.”“Well, if you'd just done what you meant to and kept your nose out of things that don't concern you, then he never would have had to save you.”I felt a surge of anger rising within me at his words. How dare he speak to me in such a way. Allen had never talked to me like this before, and I wasn't about to stand for it now.I squared my shoulders, meeting his gaze head-on. “Excuse me?” I spat, my voice laced with defiance. “This does concern me. It's my family's business, and I'm just

    I slowly made my way down the stairs, each step feeling like a hammer to my head. The pounding in my temples was relentless.As I reached the bottom of the staircase, Victor appeared before me, his face etched with concern. "Are you okay?" he asked, his brow furrowed with worry.I forced a weak smile and nodded. "Just a headache," I muttered, rubbing my temples in an attempt to ease the pain. "They seem to be getting worse and lasting longer than normal.”Victor's expression softened as he placed a comforting hand on my shoulder. "Don't worry about anything today," he said gently. "Just go rest in your room and rest. I'll send the doctor in to check on you."Before I could respond, Alexander approached us with Lidia by his side. As he drew nearer, something strange happened - my headache began to go away as if his presence had some soothing effect on me."Are you alright?" Alexander asked, his eyes filled with genuine concern.I stood there dumbfounded, unable to tear my gaze away fro

    My heart started to race in my chest as I looked up at Alexander's eyes boring into me. I gasped in surprise at his sudden appearance. He studied me intently, his expression unreadable."Fay," he said softly, his voice sending shivers down my spine. "What are you doing here all alone?"I took a deep breath, trying to calm my racing heart. "I could ask you the same thing," I replied. "Are you following me?"Alexander's lips quirked up into a small smile. "Following you? No, Fay. I just happened to be in the area."I narrowed my eyes at him. "And what about Lidia? Shouldn't you be out at the lake with her right now?"He chuckled softly, taking a step closer to me. My heart skipped a beat as he did. I could never forgive him for what he did to me, but it was hard not to feel something when he was around for so many reasons, the main one being that he was my mate. "Why are you so concerned about where I should be, Fay?" he asked teasingly.I swallowed hard, feeling my cheeks flush with em

    We met with the maid’s family. My heart ached for them as they mourned their daughter's death. I decided that I wasn't going to bring up that we thought she was involved with the attempted poisoning at the palace. They were hurting enough without me adding to that. I left Alexander in the village and made my way back to the palace, knowing that I would have to face Allen. Walking into the palace, my heart raced. I don't know why I was worried about talking to Allen. I hadn't done anything wrong.As I walked through the main doors, I could feel Allen's intense gaze on me before I even saw him. He was standing by the stairs, waiting for me. "Fay," Allen's voice was cold and stern as he approached me. "What were you doing with Alexander?"“I went to the village to talk to the maid's family, and while I was there, I ran into him.”His jaw tensed as he glared at me. "You know how dangerous he is. You can't be associating yourself with someone like him.""I have to go talk to Victor," I s

    Natasha's POVI slipped away from Reed, my steps barely audible as I moved through the forest. His anger was palpable, its weight pressing down like a suffocating blanket. Yet, my mind was elsewhere, tangled in a web of my own making.Reed believed I was some sorceress at his beck and call, but he failed to recognise my true intentions. The werewolves needed to fall, and I was growing tired of how long it was taking. I was starting to believe that I had chosen the wrong wolf to fool into helping me.Finally, free from prying eyes, I paused, letting the cool air wash over my skin. Closing my eyes, I whispered the incantation that connected me to the circle of witches aiding my cause. Their faces flickered to life, suspended in the ethereal glow of magic."Natasha, what news?" one witch asked, her voice echoing in the silent forest."The dark army failed me," I replied, frustration lacing every syllable.

    Reed's POVThe trees whispered as I moved deeper into the forest, their secrets swirling around me in the half-light. Rage coiled within me like a living thing, a beast demanding satisfaction. My failure gnawed at me, a constant reminder of what I'd lost and what I had yet to gain.I stopped in a small clearing, my hiding place that lay veiled far from prying eyes. Here, among the shadows, I was king, free to unleash the fury that throbbed beneath my skin. With a growl, I slammed my fists into a tree, the bark crunching under the force, a brief balm to my anger. Removing my mask I needed to be free from the confinment it gave me.From the corner of my eye, I saw a movement. Natasha emerged slowly, her presence as unsettling as ever. Her eyes flicked to my face—a mixture of horror and something else, something she tried to hide. Was it fear? Disgust? I didn't care."Natasha," I hissed, ripping the mask from my face. The cool night air kissed the black lines that marred my skin, twistin

Liam and Sarah were nestled on the plush carpet, absorbed in a game only they seemed to understand. Their laughter was like music, softening the edges of my wearied heart."Mummy! Daddy!" Sarah sprang up at the sight of us, her excitement infectious, a glowing reminder of why this fight was worth every sacrifice.Liam followed suit, his small form rushing into my open arms with unrestrained joy. "We've been playing with Uncle Ethan!"Ethan, always the steadfast guardian, sat nearby, offering a lazy grin. "They've kept me busy," he admitted, his eyes warm with a mix of affection and respect."Thank you, Ethan," I said, grateful for his unwavering support. He nodded, the understanding between us needing no elaboration. “I better go find Lidia and see if she needs a hand with anything.” he turned and left the room, closing the door behind him.Sarah wandered to

But the moment was fleeting as a voice pierced through the clamour. "They're retreating!"Slowly, I pulled away, peering down to see Reed's dark army vanishing into the thick forest. Shadows swallowed their forms, leaving only the thrum of uncertainty in their wake."What do you think they're doing?" Alexander's voice held a mixture of curiosity and caution."I don't know." I tilted my chin, scanning the horizon as if the answers lay hidden. The forest seemed to sway, whispering secrets I couldn't grasp. "But we can't let our guard down. Everyone, stay on high alert!" I commanded my voice firm, carrying over the din.Alexander was at my side as I moved, instinct drawing us toward the elders. "Are you going to tell them about the twins?" he asked, his gaze steady on me.I hesitated, weighing the risk. "No," I decided, resolve hardening m

    Reed's POVI stood away from the chaos, my soldiers mounting one final assault against the weakening shield. The sounds of their efforts filled the air, but my mind was elsewhere—bewildered, angry, and more determined than ever.How was it possible? Alexander should have been gone—a distant memory, shredded by Natasha's magic. Yet he lived, his presence like an irritating thorn that refused to loosen its grip. His return changed everything, forcing me to rethink every part of my plan.I stalked through the dark woods, the shadows dancing and twisting around me as if mocking my frustration. My fists clenched and unclenched, trying to contain the seething fury that had taken hold of me. "Useless witch," I muttered under my breath, the words dripping with venom.Natasha appeared beside me, her face hidden beneath the hood of her cloak. Her eyes glinted in the dim light, sharp and unreadable. "I sense your anger, Reed, but things aren’t as simple as they once were."I stopped abruptly, tu

The twins nestled deeper into my embrace, their innocent dreams a reminder of everything worth fighting for.A knock on the door interrupted the calm, and I called out with an expectant, "Come in."

    Olivia's POVI found myself drifting, the fatigue of endless battles pulling at the edges of my consciousness. The room around me faded as I sank deeper, my eyes fluttering closed of their own accord.In this fragile world of dreams, a familiar warmth enveloped me. Two white wolves, their fur gleaming with an ethereal glow, emerged from the mist that gathered around my thoughts. They watched me with knowing eyes, eyes that both challenged and comforted, eyes that seemed to understand the burdens that weighed so heavily upon my shoulders."Please," I found myself whispering, my plea carried by the winds of this dreamscape. "Help me. Show me how to stop this war and save Alexander."The wolves, laden with centuries of wisdom, turned their backs as if my words had failed to reach them.
