Logan POVDreams of my mate plague my mind every night in my sleep. I can't get over her beautiful slim frame and emerald green eyes. Her cries of pain give me nightmares and memories of how I had her tortured raise goosebumps on me.I want her.It wasn't until I lost her that I realised that I needed Maya in my life just as I needed air to breath.My relationship with Regina has been going down the drain.I have been reduced to nothing but a drunkard, turning myself to the shadow of my former self.Her rejection had caused me pain, caused all the pack members pain but that would never be comparable to the pain we gave her here.I don't see face to face with my beta for what he did to her. Maya was my mate and he had no right to carve those words on her back and inject wolfsbane to her.I Know I sound pretentious right now owing to the fact even I enjoyed torturing and giving her pain.I thought it was fun and it would keep her in her place so that she can be the obedient little mate
Gideon POVWe made our way to the council meeting room with Leo and Samantha following behind me.I was angry that those old foxes dared to touch my little mate but Sam advised me to keep my cool.My wolf was howling in my mind, wanting to take over and rip those bastard heads." I want to do the same but that might land our mate into more trouble." I tried to calm Danger.I needed to act like I didn't care what they were doing to Maya, maybe then they can leave me alone while I figure out a way to silence them for good.I walked to my chair and sat down like the King I am. My eyes swept through the council before they landed on my mate who was chained like a criminal.My anger bubbled up but I suppressed my beast from taking over." To what do we have this meeting?" I asked, my voice sounding impatient." It has come to our attention that the King is not only keeping a lowly Omega in our Kingdom, she is also a cursed Silver wolf." One elder I recognized to be from the Strongholm fami
The room was filled with gasps after my verdict. I dared not look into my mate's face, afraid that I'll see disappointment and probably hate in her eyes." What tge fuck human? That's my Mate!" Danger growled at me, his voice sending a migraine my way." That's the only way to save her." I replied to my beast, trying to talk some sense to it." Sending her to that filthy place is the only way to save her?" Danger growled again. He was not ready to listen to me and I could understand why. Even I felt the pain when those words escaped my mouth but I trust Naver. He would never do anything to hurt me or my mate.I could tell something is definitely wrong or special with my mate so u heeded his advice." That's the best decision you have made in a few years of your reign." A council member said, grinning at me.I glared at the Man. I will teach him a lesson after everything is done.The soldiers came, taking Maya away.I turned to look at my sister and the fury burning inside her was unmi
I shifted back to my human form after leaving the council. I can't believe that Gideon would do that to me.Wasn't he the one who promised me that he would always protect me? Why did he go back on his words so easily the moment he was confronted by the council elders.He promised me and the irrational part of my mind had started believing in him.I had for a moment thought that we could trust him not to hurt us but it turned out he was no different from that asshole Logan.At Least Logan showed his hatred and disgust on me, Gideon had played the caring mate to only act otherwise when faced by a crisis.I knew that something was wrong with my wolf. She healed impossibly fast and was big in shape.I always hid that from others and only Regina knew about my healing powers.The gasps that escaped the elders mouths when they saw my wolf left me wondering what they saw.They mentioned a mark on my wolf but I didn't Know anything about that.I shifted earlier than normal werewolves and when
Gideon kissed me hungrily and soon enough, my shirt was gone. His hands trailed on my back and I felt him still for a second. He was about to turn me and look at my back. I tensed." Don't!" I pleaded. I could not allow him to see whatever vulgar words the Beta carved on my body. I doubt he could write anything that was not insulting." Okay, I won't." Gideon replied, capturing my lips yet again and another round of heated kisses started.I ripped his shirt because I could not unbutton it.My hands felt his muscles. They felt good under my touch, making my core clench.I have always wanted to feel his body with my hands and I wanted him.His sweet intoxicating scent was messing with my brain and I was a goner.Gideon left my lips, moving to suck the sensitive spot on my neck; the place his mark should be.I shivered, loving the feel of his tongue on my bare skin.He sucked and nibbled, turning me into a moaning mess.His mouth captured my breasts and he sucked on it while his hand gav
I watched the woman laying on my arms, sleeping peacefully. She is beautiful, even in her sleep." She is ours." My wolf reminded me." She is danger, and nobody is taking her away from us." I concurred.They will have to kill me first before taking Maya away.I smiled, thinking of what we just did.She is perfect in everything and I wanted her.I stopped myself from taking her, although it was hard.With everything happening, I decided to take my time.I want to marry her and make her my Queen.I Know the road before us I'd hard and difficult, but I will have to do anything to clear all obstacles in our way.Avery and the Strongholm family are my biggest threats and until they are eliminated, I will never be happy with Maya.I don't know how she will react when she hears that I agreed to make Adina my Queen.It's a ploy to fool everyone but I am still worried if Maya will understand me.The last thing I want is my mate feeling like I have betrayed her, I can't handle seeing her in pa
I was at the cabin in no time. I twisted the doorknob, pushing the door open.Maya's sweet and intoxicating scent assaulted my nose. I took a deep breath, her scent calming my nerves.My deep blue crystals fell on her pristine and we'll proportioned body.She was standing in front of the mirror at the dressing table.She was covered with a white silk robe.Her hair was still dripping wet making it stick on her face and neck. Water droplets travelled down, disappearing into the robe.I swallowed hard and my wolf, danger, stirred at the back of my mind.I strode to her, pushing away the wet locks from her neck before nestling my head at the crook of her neck.My eyes met hers in the mirror." I missed you." I murmured into her ears in a low voice only meant for her.I watched as her lips curved into a sweet smile." It's been hours since I woke up to an empty bed." She replied, pouting cutely.My hands snaked her waist, pulling her close to my body." I missed you too." She breathed out
Maya POVThe following days have been peaceful. Gideon accompanies me every chance he gets. He's busy, as the King of such a big Kingdom, he is bound to be occupied.Brianna spends her days with me together with two other guards Gideon prepared for me.I tried convincing him that I did not need any guards but he's adamant about it so I let it slide.I can understand his fears though. With dark magic resurfacing again, everybody was in danger, not only me.Brianna has been acting cautious around me. She counts her words anytime we are chatting. I guess chatting isn't the right word anymore because I do almost all the talking.I can tell she is hiding something from me.It's not in my position to force her to spill her secrets so I just ignore it. But why do I feel like whatever she's hiding has something to do with me?Since I can't go training with the rest of the warriors, we train with Brianna.Samantha sometimes comes around and trains with me.I feel much stronger nowadays." And
" Every year on this day,you come to drink with me. Tell me Maya, what is the matter?" Samantha asked, pouring me another glass of wine." I can't drink with you though." She added, sounding apologetic." I know that. Kyle told me that you guys are expecting again. Congratulations." I said.Six years ago, Kyle and Samantha finally got married and were blessed with a baby boy, Allison." He won't stop telling everybody about it. He's hoping we could have a girl this time." Samantha said with a smile." Anyway, don't try to change the subject. Tell me, it's been years, why do you still feel guilty about your parents death? You and I both know that you had nothing to do with that." She added, making me take a deep breath before sighing heavily." Samantha, do you think I am a filial daughter?" I asked and it seemed like my question took her aback.Samantha stared at me blankly for a minute before a frown settled on her face." Why are you asking that? I don't understand." Confusion was a
" Wake up Zara, it is time to start your training." I smiled at my daughter who was covered from head to toe and definitely pretending to be asleep." Zara dear, I am going to tickle you." I sang out sweetly and the girl immediately woke up, her face terrified.If there is something that Zara fears the most is being tickled." Okay, okay. I'm going to train." She muttered pretending to rub her eyes.A yawn escaped her mouth.Just when she was about to Step down, her father and my husband, Gideon stepped Inside the room." You are being hard on our daughter, Love. Let her sleep some more. She is young and energetic. She can learn everything later." As always, he was here to let his daughter off the hook.This has always been what he does, spoiling his daughter and giving in to her every demand and whim." But Gideon…" Before I could say anything,he snaked his arms around my waist, pulling my body to his." Our daughter is the princess, she does not need to work hard. She can have anyt
" Nooooo!" I cried out, my legs moving impossibly fast as I held Albanus in my arms.The dagger had stabbed directly into his heart and I knew that there was no way I would be saving him.As I held him in my arms, I could not help but let my tears fall.A beautiful smile was plastered on his face as he looked me in the face." Why Albanus! Why did you do that? Why are you stupid?" I yelled at him, my tears flowing like a river.I did not bother to restrain them as they fell, each drop of my tears falling on his face." They say that love is blind but not stupid. I think my Love for you is both blind and stupid. I Love you Maya and I can do anything to see you happy. Since it's Gideon you love, why would I let you suffer after he's dead. I am not generous but I can lay my life to see those I love happy. Be happy please and don't cry. You don't look so good when you cry." Although his voice sounded weak, Albanus still struggled to tell me those words.My hands were soaked with his warm
" Milady, the pack kingdom is under attack!" Brianna's worried and anxious voice reached my mind through the Link." What?" I yelled, jumping on my feet before racing outside.I had confined myself in my chambers again for a whole day and night, trying to practise my magic and learn how to control it." The southern border has been taken down and they are heading to the castle. What should we do?" Brianna cried. I could feel the worry in her voice,not like I was not worried myself but I had prepared myself for this day." Calm down Brianna. I want you to do something for me. Take Zara to safety. Take her to the bunker and wait for me there. No matter what happens, do not let her out of your sight." I instructed, racing down the stairs.The kingdom has always been fortified so how could they break in so quickly?How could they easily make their way as far as to the castle unless this was all but a trap?However, I didn't have time to ponder on that, I just knew I had to stand up and de
Maya POVI have been feeling pretty anxious these last few days. Ever since I lost control and hurt Avery, I have not heard anything from her but knowing that woman, she would look for a way to get back at me.The sky is gloomy and so is my mood. I am not a superstitious person but something is telling me that something is wrong Somewhere.I haven't seen Gideon since I woke up.Brianna said he spent the night in our chambers that night and Left at dawn.She also told me that I was out for almost twenty four hours.When I woke up, it was already past midday.Samantha was the one by my side when I woke up.She actually never talks about Gideon and I appreciate her for that.I don't want to talk about him but that does not hide the worry I have for him.With him spending time with Avery, who knows what she would do to him?" Milady, someone is here to see you." Brianna announces from outside my room.I have been stuck here all day long practising my magic.My control over magic is someth
Third person POV" Alpha Lucio,are you saying that your niece is still alive?" I glared at the man under my cloak wondering why I did not get rid of him three years ago." Yes, Dark Lord. That brat is still alive and that means that our plans are jeopardised." Alpha Lucio replied." Hazia said that she made sure to kill the child, how come she is still alive or could it be that she lied to all of us." His eyes regarded me with suspicion and I glared at him.I would have to keep up with my disguise for as long as it can last because that is the only way I can protect my sister's daughter.I made a mistake and I am going to correct that mistake.I will never allow the dark lord to take over the land. That would be over my dead body!" What are trying to insinuate Lucio? Are you questioning my loyalty to my Lord?" I stalked him, letting my magic free.Lucio took a step back in fear, making me smile Inwardly.That's all you needed to do, Just scare him a little bit and the fellow will be
Looking at my mate in another man's arms had my throat clog but I still managed to keep a straight face.It hurts but I Know my mate. Maya will never ever betray me, not with someone like Albanus at least.But I won't say that Avery's words did not get into me, they did. Pretty bad." Tell me something Maya,do you like jumping from one man to the other? Anyway, what did I expect from a whore like you." Avery spat and before I could move, Albanus was already before Avery, struggling her neck." Watch what you spout from that filthy mouth of yours Avery. Not every woman is as loose as you." His voice was restrained but his words rolled out with so much venom.He was angry and I knew why. Just like me, Albanus fell for my mate's charms and would not stand to have her insulted." It's okay Albanus,leave her alone. How do you expect a monster to relate human feelings?" My mate's sweet voice resonated and to my chagraine, he let Avery go." Talking of whores? Who is the whore between the tw
Maya's POVThe nerve of that woman! How dare she rub the fact that Gideon abandoned my daughter and I for her? Doesn't she have any shame at all?And that Gideon! How dare he bring the woman who hurt me and my daughter so much and decide to marry her? That's without even telling me?He should have already told me about it so that I get prepared and not make a foolOut of myself.Imagine Zara and I going to pay him a suprise visit in the office only to run into that psychopath?Gideon and I had the most passionate night of our lives and from judging by the way he made love to me last night, I was not stupid enough not to realize that something was utterly wrong.Even after observing that, I chose not to ask him anything.I was hoping that he would open up to me and share his troubles with me but he didn't.He chose to keep them to himself then slap me in the face.One thing is certain though, Gideon isn't doing this out of his own violation.There must be something pushing him to do w
"It feels great to be home and free. Don't you think so, Gideon?" Avery asked and I had to suppress bmy anger not to lash at her.Home! I don't think this is her home." Says the person who did not have a second thought before betraying her people and what she calls a home." I snickered sarcastically.To me, your home is the place you would sacrifice anything to see it peaceful and prosper. That's the true definition of a home." My people?" Avery's voice was filled with scorn. " I helped alot of them, saved their pathetic lives but what did they do for me? The person I trusted the most betrayed me and stabbed me behind my back. When I was imprisoned, nobody said anything. Why should I be the one to think about them? They used me to step up in their life but abandoned me when I needed their support. Why should I be kind to them now?"" I don't have people anymore, just myself." She spat venomously." Regardless of what your sentiments are or what you think, there are a lot of innocent
