Lupe’s POV

I dared not doubt that the absence of the Lycan King was the goddess gift to me. It felt like the burden I carried every day had disappeared, only a little while though. I recieved the news when I woke up in the morning.

I was informed by Ariel. She caught me in the corridor with a sly smile on her face just as I was leaving my tiny room.

She leaned closer and whispered, "Guess what?"

"What?" I brushed aside a few loose hairs and asked hesitantly.

"The Lycan king just left the pack house. He is gone for now," Ariel whispered.

"Gone?" Uncertain if I had heard her right, I repeated.

With an almost amused smile, Ariel nodded. "To the northern regions. There was some talk about getting together with an ally, but people like me didn't receive all the details though."

"How long is he going to be gone?" I asked excitedly.

She looked around to make sure no one was listening and answered, "emm...three days, probably four. But given his personality, he'll most likely come back soon

    Lupe’s POVPeace prevailed for four days. Atleast I hadn't been called into the Lycan King's quarters for four days now. I didn't feel his cold stare follow me about, and also the oppressive burden of his presence. Or the need to hide from him. I could walk around the pack house without the fear of bumping into him. It felt like my life had almost returned to normal, like I was a little free. Though I still have other demons after my life.Unfortunately, the peace I experienced, soon ended.I noticed the maids chatting in the hallway opposite my tiny room. I stood up and went close to the door, trying to eavesdrop what they were talking about.I heard one of them said, in a low, sharp, excited voice, "the Lycan king is finally back!"“Wow..when did he come back?” another maid asked.“Just few moments ago.” the first maid replied.That moment, my heart skipped a beat. I didnt know if I should cry or smile. The King of Lycans has already come back. Although I knew it would happen regard

    Lupe’s POVThe next day I returned to the lycan king's quarter with the same motive. To my greatest surprise it was the same story as yesterday.When I got to the door, the guards looked at each other, their faces looking blank and confused as they returned their attention to me. They were just staring at me as I approached, waiting in anticipation to know why I was coming."Please," I murmured quietly. "It is urgent. I need to see the lycan king. I can wait for me if he is busy now."One of them, a tall guy with a scar along his face, raised his head and sighed quietly. "No you are not allowed to wait," he stated curtly. "You have to leave and you must. The lycan king never summoned."The younger, obviously uneasy second guard nodded in support He said, "you came here yesterday but you have to go back the lycan king isn't expecting you so you have to leave right now," but his voice faltered a little. "Just take the advice for your own good."I looked at the closed doors behind them a

    Lupe’s POVThe passageways were quieter than normal, with lights on the walls flashing as a chilly breeze floated over the pack house. I got head ache from the countless lof thoughts playing in my head at the same time. "They need something from me, I'm sure of it. If it was just for pleasure, he has Kyan to satisfy him." I hummed my words to avoid anyone from listening.I had to talk with Adrian. I don't care what he might do. I turned to go back to his room.I was able to get past the kitchen area, where a few staff and maids were chatting. They glared at me and rolled their eyes like I committed a crime against them.I felt uneasy and the urge to abort the mission of going to meet him. I was already few steps away from the guards who stood outside his room.The noises I had heard before, from Adrain's room kept ringing in my head. Kyan's presence in the room. The guards had gazed at me, uneasy but silent. I should've turned back. I should've disregarded the twisting pain in the wa

    Lupe's POVGazing mindlessly at the dead leaves strewn across the lawn, I sat in the farthest part of the garden, with my knees pulled to my breast. My body was depleted of all strength, and my heart felt empty. The past several days had been really bad for me, with failure after disappointment eroding what little strength I still had. I had made an attempt. I had pleaded. Adrian had also made it plain that he didn't care about me. Not like i was expecting him to, but atleast he should've been merciful.My chest still ached from the humiliation of being thrown aside and hauled away like an unacceptable pest. Above all else, though, I was unable to get rid of the intense pain I felt from missing my mother."Lupe? Is that you?"I was jolted out of my reverie by Ariel's voice. I was unaware that she was coming. Her eyebrows were drawn together in alarm as I raised my head.She sat next to me and whispered, "I've been searching the whole pack house for you. After breakfast, you vanished.

I was already feeling impatient, and the scene in front of me made me feel even worse. I just came back from a heated meeting with my pack members to meet my room messed up with the taunting smell of fruits.She was just sitting in my desk. She has no little respect for her brother. Carelessly putting grapes into her mouth while reclining her ass on the desk as if she owned it, one leg stretched over the floor. The fruit bowl, which was never meant to be in my room, lay next to her, its contents quickly emptying as she picked them up one by one, bite by bite.Aaarrrghhh!I tightened my jaw. "Are you supposed to create a mess wherever you go?" I asked in an irritated tone.She chewed loudly as she turned her head to face me. My sister Fiona was never the type to fall for my straight mean facial expression. Then, while maintain

    Lupe's POV"What's going on?" I asked rubbing my eyes. I woke up to the sound from outside.There was an overwhelming sense of urgency in the pack house. There were servants running wherever I looked, voices overlapping in desperate orders, and the sound of feet moving from one side to another. "Ohhhh!" I exclaimed as it came to me.The whole town was a flurry of restless activity because of the impending celebration. Everyone was on really in the edge of wanting perfection.The celebration appeared to be a major thing, with other packs joining the Moon Stalkers to celebrate. And, as predicted, everything needed to be flawless. The maids worked nonstop, scrubbing, adorning, and preparing an infinite list of tasks that I didn't bother keeping track of the activities. Male slaves were either hauling pallets of supplies or placed on duties that required them to sprint back and forth.Nobody could afford to rest.This includes me. I hurried off to start mine before they come for me. Cons

The aroma of freshly made bread, roasted meat, and exotic spices filled the atmosphere, making my stomach turn, not from hunger, but from fear of getting my stomach upset.

    Fiona's POV I couldn't shake off the feeling of guilt brewing within me, I could feel Lupe's curious eyes on me since the party commenced. It was never my intention for her to find out my real identity in this manner. Her steps were shaky as she approached the VIP table, her raised hand held a flat tray with different bottles of drinks and a few glasses. I could see her hands shaking as she drew nearer. I prayed underneath my breath that she doesn't fall, her steps were even more tensed than her hands. As soon as I had the thought, she tripped on her own feet nearly kissing the ground. My breath halted instantly."Damn it!" I couldn't help but curse. But to my surprise, she held herself and continued moving. I was stunned, for some reasons, I was drawned to her. Her eyes met mine, my hands fumbled inside my dress, ready to wave her a hi but just as quickly as she first turned, she turned away again. "I guess, I deserved that." I muttered taking another drink from my glass. My

    Lupe's POV My hands moved faster than steel. It sliced through the rotten fleshs of the rogues and the hunters. My eyes were fixed on the gates, I need to save Dave before it was too late. I needed to fight without facing the danger of hurting my pup, fighting in my human form was not helping, the hunters were strong, they fought till their last breathe. Whatever Sabastian promised them must be something they were willing to die for. I sensed the presense of a rogue behind me, I turned sharply. "It's you." His words were sloppy and he counted them as though he feared words. I sent him a look with one hand placed over my stomach protectively. That was becoming an habit, I needed to drop it before I get caught."Care to identify yourself?" I asked keeping my eyes on him. I noticed that we were drawing the attention of the other rogues who were moving closer to me. "That is none of your business." He snapped. My eyes scanned through the crowd in search of Adrian, but he was busy

    Lupe's POV For a moment, my heart stopped then it began to beat wildly. He was staring at me with those dark eyes, I was experiencing a lot of firsts with this new Adrian, for the first time, his usual arrogant look was gone, replaced with ones that stared at me with so much intense emotions.I swallowed hard trying to calm my beating heart. "Don't do that." I said not taking my eyes off his. "Tell me what I shouldn't do." His voice was low, we were alone in the woods, surrounded by animals who crawled in the shadows and insects whose chirping was loud enough to make a deaf man hear. But for some reasons, I wasn't scared; I have never been scared of him but I once dreaded meeting him. Seeing him here all alone in the middle of nowhere, I should have been scared of what he might do to me but crazy me was tingling in anticipation. The look in those eyes was driving me crazy. "D.. I mean, don't worry about me." Damnit! Why in the name of the goddess was I stuttering?!"Why shouldn't

    Adrian's pov.Her eyes were hard, I could tell that she was very worried about Dave. She must have liked him a lot, afterall, he protected her while I failed. A part of me suddenly felt jealous of him, he had someone who was very worried about him. "I can't have you risk your life Lupe, I will find a way to bring Dave here, I think that's better and safer." I said not moving an inch from where I stood."You think?" She scoffed at me. My jaw dropped in disbelief, "I.. I think it's less dangerous." "Let's say we do it the way you want, on your way back to the palace, you get shot by the same poisonous arrows, then you bring Dave out into that horrible battle field, risking his life. Woah, very brillant idea." She clapped.Instantly, I felt so foolish for the first time, "You're right, it's too risky." "What are you both planning to do?" Fiona appeared at the door, I could tell she had been eavesdropping. "We are leaving Fiona, I'm sorry it's sudden, but thank you for everything." L

    Lupe's POV Instantly his hands fell off my waist, I picked myself up."What games are you trying to play your highness?" I drawled the last part as I folded my arms watching him. He pushed himself up, "games?" He asked looking confused."Yes, if you think I'd easily fall into your trap, then you better have a rethink." My hands were trembling in anger. There was no way he would suddenly come searching for me to apologize for his wrong doings especially not after I heard his harsh words the day I left the palace."Lupe, I am not playing any games, I came here to plead for your forgivness and ask that you return with me to the pack." He said. "Return to hell?" I scoffed, "You're kidding." "What can I do to make you believe me Lupe?" He asked. "How can I believe any word you say when you were so ready to have the guards throw me out? Aren't I the bitch you hated? I decided to save myself the shame by leaving in my own accord." I spat at him.His face dropped, "You heard." It sounde

    Lupe's POV All eyes in the room turned to face me, including him. I must be crazy walking towards the same man I ran away from in my own accord. But I couldn't let him die. I overheard him talking to Fiona pleading to see me for some unknown reasons, he sounded desperate. "Are you sure about this Leah?" I asked as I walked towards wondering if I could really heal what the healer couldn't. "Yes, all he needs is your blood to cleanse his contaminated one." She explained. Fiona turned to me with guilty eyes, "I'm sorry Lupe, I don't know how he found out."I sent her a smile, "It's fine." I knew it would take him only a couple of hours to find me. To be honest, a part of me came here hoping we'd cross paths someday. "Lupe, can we talk?" Adrian asked. For the first time since I knew him, he was being polite, not the usual jerk that I was used to.I remained silent avoiding his gaze. "Can you help me with a knife?" I turned to the maid standing by the door."Yes my lady." She bowed

    Adrian's POV "We have no idea who she is." She replied with shoulders trembling in fear."I think she's a friend to the Luna, they are inseparable. For some reasons, I felt proud of Fiona. I was grateful that at least she was nicer to Lupe."Not everyone is like you." My wolf interjected. Ignoring him, I turned to the girls, "Describe how she looked." I needed to be sure for the last time. "Or aren't you just stalling?" He interupted my thoughts again. As much as I hated to admit, he was a little right, for the first time in my life, I was frightened to see someone. I felt so bad for the way I treated her and I was scared of her reaction. She probably hates me. I deserved it, every feeling of hatred that she had for me, I deserved every single one of them. "She is tall, taller than the queen. Her face is one of the most prettiest I've ever seen. She's well endowed and she has a very bold and daring aura." It was her, it was Lupe. "What are you doing to my people, brother?" I h

    Adrian's POV The pack was busy when I got there, people moved around carrying furnitures and portraits bearing the picture of their Alpha, Alex. They walked past me giving me a small bow as they went. It felt strange, they seemed to care about their Alpha than they cared about me.Not saying a word, I walked in their midst. "I can't wait to see the Luna, I heard she's very pretty." One young girl carrying a flower pot said with a blush on her face."Oh, you weren't her when she was announced as the Luna." Her friend replied.The flower girl shook her head, "My mom was sick, the king was kind enough to let us take her back home to her father to get treated. He didn't want us to say, but he gave us enough food and gold to keep us going till she was able to get back on her feet." "The King has always been nice, he's just like his father." Her friend was smiling. "Don't you think the queen is like the former queen too? I heard she's equally alike." Her friend smiled, "She's more beau

    Adrian's POV "Her scent is faint, I can barely trace her." My wolf released a frustrated growl. "Let's keep searching, we must find her." I replied jumping over a fallen maggot infested tree. I got to a crossroad, for some reasons, her scent was gone. It was as though she vanished into thin air. I couldn't tell which road she took. Deciding to trust my instincts, I took to the left leading to her former pack. She might have gone back home to her family. "I don't think she's stupid enough to go to where you'd find her." My wolf muttered."There's no harm in trying, I will leave no stone unturned till I find her." I replied increasing my pace. Time was no on my side, Dave was drifting slowly into eternal sleep and my kingdom was falling. I needed Lupe more than anything else. I trusted Cenat to hold off the army, but he can't hold them off for long, he was injured. Fighting off a thousand well trained hunters was a difficult task. He was obviously risking his life. I hoped that th

    Lupe's POV "Are you fine Lupe?" Fiona asked as she patted my back. I was squatting on the ground with my head bent down towards the heap of grass that had just been cut. My throat felt like it was filled with packs of needles that pierced my flesh hard. "I'm okay, it's just the morning illness." I replied getting up. She handed me a bowl of water, "wash your face with this, I will get the healer to check how the child is doing." "I'm fine Fio- Luna Fiona, I just need a little rest. Guess the baby doesn't want food this morning." I smiled at her hoping she would relax. Her shoulders were tensed and her facial expression filled worry. "Just call me Fiona, we are friends so it's fine." She took back the bowl before handing it over to the maids who stood behind us. "Even if the child doesn't want food, you still need to see the healer, and I'm not listening to any protests." She sent me a playful scowl. "Alright, do what you please your highness." I bite back my laugh.Since I left
