I was seated in my office with Theo discussing matters about the kingdom. There has been a storm which swept the west region of the Kingdom.I have sent my men to that area to help the people. Food supplies as well as a medical team have headed to the area.Although the storm frequents the area once in a year or sometimes twice, they prefer staying in their land as that's where they have grown up.It's not always that the storms hit pretty strongly but this time, it did a lot more damage than I would ever admit.I have tried talking to the people to relocate but they remain adamant.I don't want to force them so I just let them be and help where I can." The Strongholm family sent help to the village before our team could arrive. In the eyes of the villagers, the Strongholm family is more reliable than the king." Leo informed me and I nodded.The Strongholm family will stop at nothing to ensure that I look bad in front of my subjects. It's not like I care about their petty tricks but
Third person POVAlbanus could not believe that Avery had been using him all this while.He has helped her free herself from the prison and how did she pay him, by locking him in a fucking dungeon.It all went down the drain when Avery announced to him that she was going after Gideon's mate. He should have known better than to trust someone who almost killed the man she claimed to love.The plan was simple, separate Gideon from his mate.She would have Gideon and he would have Maya.Separating Maya from Gideon would hurt the man the most and that's what he had been looking forward to for years.He would have agreed with Avery to kill Gideon's mate if he had not seen her.He had fallen in Love with her the moment he laid his eyes on her. She was sweet and lovely and her scent enticed his wolf.He wanted her. He wanted her for himself and he was going to do everything to have her and that's why he helped Avery escape the cells.But now, he realised that his biggest mistake was trusting
Maya POVI groaned, opening my eyes and they darted around the room I had hoped to wake up and realise that everything was nothing but a bad dream but the reality of the matter glared at me, mocking me endlessly." Look at you, you can't even handle seeing your so-called Man screw another woman!" Avery's voice boomed, her words reminding me of the very reason I had fainted.Something had gripped my heart tightly, suffocating me as I watched my mate kissing another woman.That had hurt, more than it would hurt when Logan did his dirty business with Regina back at my former pack." Long time no see Maya, seems like you always have a way of offending people wherever you go." Talk of the devil and the devil manifests himself.My head whipped to the direction of the voice and true to my ears, Regina was there.But she was no longer pregnant. Probably because she already gave birth.Yes, it's been close to eight months since I left Logan's pack.It would be obvious the baby conceived by th
The moment I got a hint of my mate's whereabouts, I left for the Maple Forest.Albanus' panicked and worried voice rang in my mind like a broken record.I could feel my throat burn and chest tighten just thinking about why Albanus would be worried about my Mate.Yes, I am thankful that he hinted at her location but something deep down was gnawing my heart. It felt like I had a thousand ants crawling in my heart.The feeling was not foreign to me but it was unpleasant.'Now is not the time to be jealous, human! Our mate and pup are in danger!" My beast grumbled.Although dissatisfied, I knew that he was right.I should not be feeling jealous at this point, Maya's life and our children's were in the line and I could not afford to slack off or who knows what that witch would do to them.I had mindlinked all my top tier warriors to head to the maple forest to look for my mate.Leo, Naver and Samantha were behind me as we raced deep into the woods.We were in our beast form which enabled u
It's been hours since I brought my mate back home. The pack doctor stitched back her tummy. I don't want to imagine the pain she went through when she decided to cut open her stomach to remove our pup. What is even worse is that there is no pup to show Maya when she wakes up.We combed every corner of that castle and the only thing we found was Maya's dagger covered with her blood.There was no sign of a baby. We also managed to rescue Albanus from where he was locked.He is currently being kept in one of our prison cells.I would personally Interrogate him and know exactly why Avery held him hostage in that house.He might have helped us locate my mate but I am not stupid enough to not know that those two had a deal and one of them double-crossed the one.Avery would be more likely to be the double crosser." How is she doing?" I asked Devin who just left my chambers to check on Maya.Leo, Samantha, Naver and I have been waiting outside as the pack doctor and Devin checked on my Mate
I slowly lifted my tired body and made my way to my chambers.Brianna was outside the room, guarding the door as well as two other soldiers.I did not see the need of keeping them around, afterall Avery had managed to go past them and take my mate away." You can leave." I dismissed her.One look at her redshot eyes and the eyebags, I could tell she stayed up all night.The guilt on her face was unmistakable. I could tell she was blaming herself for letting Maya down." Don't beat yourself up for what happened to her, it's not your fault." I reminded her.If anybody was to bear the brunt for whatever happened to Maya and our pup, that had to be me.Brianna nodded before walking away. Despite my words, I could see the sadness in her lonely figure.To Brianna, Maya was not just her mistress, she was a Sister.My mate never cared to acknowledge the Kingdom's ways of addressing servants. They simply interacted like friends.Seeing Maya in that State must have been a blow to her.I took a
" What?" Samantha exploded the moment I explained to them about Albanus claims." That is just absurd! I mean like, why would she do that to our people?" She added and honestly, I was just as baffled and clueless as her.I had actually been thinking about the same thing ever since Albanus broke the news to me." I am sure the Strongholm family has a hand in this matter. " Leo added, echoing my thoughts." Your highness, I think the question should be what they are planning and why this kingdom? The reason for her actions is quite oblivious. That lady will stop at nothing to make pay and experience the pain she experienced over the years."Naver's words made sense.At this point, I think we should be thinking about what the Dark Lord would want from us to have Avery collude with him.I can't believe Avery was willing to sell her soul to the devil just to get her Revenge on us." Our doomsday is approaching. Without the Silver Wolf, the land will soon be littered with dead bodies. Darkn
" No!" I objected to the Idea immediately making all heads turn to me.The look Samantha and Leo gave me made my heart race.No way! They can't be agreeing to such a ridiculous idea.With or without a master, the monster would still be a shadow warrior and that's enough to pose a threat to my Kingdom.What if this is the monster's plan all along? Slither it's way to us and destroy us from within?With my mate so weak, she can't bear another attack." This is ridiculous! Are you all forgetting how this monster was created? His soul is corrupted by darkness so why would it help us against the person who created it?" I voiced my concerns." He doesn't have a name, Avery refused to give the boy a name until she managed to get you to marry her." Albanus said and I glared at him.I can't believe the nerve of the man! Was he trying to say that everything was all my fault?Maybe it was." How long have you known tbe existence of it?" I asked, trying to sound as cool as possible." I am not i
