Third Person’s POV,“Are you awake?” She asked in shock as she moved towards him instantly.He regained his consciousness but his eyes were still closed. He looked like he was trying to open them while battling with himself.“Yeahhh” he replied breathlessly as he tried to get up.‘I never heard something so sexy and provoking before!’ she thought while swallowing hard. She cleared her throat and asked him in astonishment.“How can you wake up so early?” but he decidedly not to reply.He tried to get up but his eyes were still closed and his entire body was aching like thousands of needles were piercing through his body.“Why are you trying to get up? You need rest” She said, as she moved toward him with the speed of light.“You were shot…” She tried to argue but he didn’t let her finish.“Four times. I know” He replied in his deep seductive voice and snapped open his eyes.His royal blue eyes met with her emerald green orbs. She was bewitched by his deep hypnotic eyes. She looked away
Third Person’s POV,“Did you ever feel the pain in the body at night?” Elijah asked in a curious tone. He wanted to add a full moon night in his statement but he didn’t as it must be too early to reveal that.‘That wasn’t something that I was expecting, I was hoping for simple questions, like where am I? or who are you? That kind of stuff’ She thought confusedly.“I should be the one asking you that. You were dying a few hours ago. How are you feeling now? Are you feeling pain in any part of your body, especially your shoulders?” Rose asked in a worried tone.“A bit. I will be fine soon. Don’t worry about that” he replied genuinely.‘How can someone look this gorgeous just by talking? He was looking smoking hot just lying down there minutes ago and now he even started talking. This is torture!!’ she couldn’t help but shake her head in annoyance.“Are you okay?” Elijah asked in a confused tone.‘She is weird but beautiful’ Elijah thought.“Yeah. Just my head and also a bit worried that
Rose’s POV,“ROSE? OPEN THE BLOODY DOOR!”It didn’t take me a microsecond to recognize my father’s booming voice.“Dad!” I whispered under my breath while my eyes turned as wide as the full moon.“Dad?” Elijah repeated after me.“Rose! Open the door, dear” I heard my mother’s concerned voice.‘Mom too? I am royally screwed up now!’ My mother’s nose and her extinct is out of this world. She can sit in the kitchen and tell what I and Mark has been up to! Why is she here at this moment.Why is this happening to me? Why universe so against me? Only God knows what was the urgent matter that they left the moment we arrived in this bloody hell of a house, and now just like a poof! They appeared right infront of my door. Did they even consider my well being in their absence knowing how welcoming people of this house are to me?“Rose, open the door or we will break it!” My mother shouted from the other side.“No! Wait, I am changing!” I replied in panic the first thing that came into my mind
Suddenly, my mom shouted and startled everyone while pointing toward something in the room,“Honey!” ‘What the hell! Did she see him? I told him not to come out until I say so!’ I didn’t react immediately, my back still facing toward the room.“Why is there blood on your bed sweety?” My mom asked and I took a deep sigh of relief,‘Oh, so she was talking about the blood on the bed’ I took a sigh of relief only to realize I fu**ed up.‘F*ck! I should have changed the bedsheet before opening the door’“Why is there so much blood on your bed? What happened to you last night?” My father asked holding my shoulder while observing me carefully.My mom, Mark, and Oliver also came forward to check on me.“I am fine. It’s just I injured my head with a giant tree branch. That’s it” I replied honestly pointing towards my injured head.“Then why is there so much blood on the bed” my father asked in worry and I was shut for a moment to find a good excuse only for someone else to point out the obvio
“It was my sister” He replied looking down with embarrassment.“Laina?” Mark and Oliver asked in unison.They were beyond taken aback. I mean everyone in the room except for me, obviously. I always had my doubts but I couldn’t just confront her without proof.“How dare you put the blame on my daughter…!” Aunt Melissa shouted at her own son.“I am speaking the truth, mom! I saw her locking the door that day. She told me Rose is evil and we should get rid of her!” Theo shouted back.“I was a child back then. So, I accepted whatever my older and wiser sister told me, but not anymore. This time I decided to use my own judgement when she came back to stay with us, and in this short moment of her stay, I don’t think she did anything to be treated with hate. Instead, it was always us who started it, Rose only fought back as it was her right to do. Why would she tolerate our nonsense. Never once she started the fight” Theo fought for me which shocked me the most even more than his own mother.
In Mike and Mary’s room,“She was not alone in that room. Someone was with her!” Mary said which surprised her husband even more“Who? Are you sure? Who was with her?” Mike asked in hurry ready to bolt back to Rose’s room/“I don’t know but I can tell. You know that” Mary said sitting down on the bed.“Oh, I see. Was she hiding a guy in her room?” Mike asked in confusion.“I don’t know that yet but it wasn’t her blood on the bed. She only had a minor injury. I think something is awfully wrong here” Mary said closing her eyes while holding her head in her hand.“What do you mean?” Mike asked but he was only met with silence.She finally opened her eyes and gave him a knowing look.“You mean it is related to my brothers?” Mike asked in shock.“I know my daughter, Mike. The way she asked about her uncles and aunt, I feel like she knew something or worse she saw something that she shouldn’t have” Mary said feeling helpless.“I felt weird too when she asked specifically about William and M
Third Person’s POV;“You are mine!” He said looking straight into her eyes. His royal blue eyes darkened. The playful smile on his face was long gone. There was no trace of humor in his eyes. There is no way he was joking with such a serious expression. Even the aura around him changed darkly.Suddenly, the temperature of the room dropped. It was freezing cold in the room and the only source of warmth was the man standing right in front of her.Her heart was racing against her chest. He took a couple of steps towards her slowly, and just like the last time she was frozen in her place. With each step he was taking, the temperature was dropping drastically. In no time, he was now standing right in front of her.His warm breath was falling on her face.“I…” She tried to speak.“Shhh!” he kept his forefinger on her delicate lips and Rose submitted instantly.‘What the hell is wrong with me today? Where is the feminist inside me? Is she on holiday or what?’ She asked herself angrily.She
Third Person’s POV;“Rose, do your parents give you something strong to drink? Like something actually, a bit bitter and bad to taste?” Elijah asked and Rose's eyes widened in shock.‘Hell! Is he talking about the absolutely horrible-tasting herbal tea that my mother forces me to drink calling it nutritional and important for woman's health? but I can’t tell him that. No matter how attracted I am to him, he is still a stranger’ Rose thought deeply before giving away any answer.“I don’t know” Rose’s answer wasn’t clear enough but her expressions were speaking otherwise.“Think about it, Rose. It is the kind of drink that if you mix it in any strong liquid, for example coffee, you won’t be able to taste coffee” He replied while grabbing both of her shoulders gently, looking at her with concern and care. Rose was affected by his care but his questions were also hitting right on the target.‘How the hell does he know this? Is he stalking me or something? I remember the shock I felt when
Third person’s POV;At this very moment, the door of Elijah’s room opened and the least expected walked in,“ROSE!”Without uttering a word, Rose just walked towards him.She also had no idea what was wrong with her, like her feet were working independently.On the other hand, Elijah’s heart was thudding against his chest.Every single day, he prayed to meet his mate, and now that he has finally found her, the universe has gotten him into another trouble—a big one indeed!The least he wanted in his life was getting into a cheating scandal and that too in front of Rose. Cherry on top, Rose is the one who caught him!He was thinking about ways to explain to Rose that he was not the culprit and that nothing was going on between him and Beta’s daughter.With each slow step Rose was taking towards him, he felt his heart was about to break out of his chest.She was looking straight into his eyes. At the moment, her celestial face was unreadable.Elijah pushed Sofia away from him, Sofia almo
Third Person’s POV;“It was all my fault! It all happened because of me!” Rose said in a low voice and a tear rolled down to her cheek.“No” Elijah held her shoulders.“I came to your life and made it a living hell. Your mother would never accept me and now, you also had a fight with her because of me. She will hate me now” she said, a small tear fell doan on her cheek.“No, baby. Nothing like that is going to happen. I will talk to my mother tomorrow and everything will be alright” he said while wiping her tear.“This wouldn’t have happened if I didn’t come to your life. I think I should leave” Her voice cracked when she spoke. She really didn’t have the courage to leave her. She didn’t know how but she loved him more than she should.“Don’t ever say that! I can’t lose you” He said with his eyes speaking louder than words.She could see the millions of emotions in his eyes.“What will happen now?” she asked in a low voice.“Do you trust me?” He asked, his eyes never leaving hers.Ros
Third Person’s POV;“Elijah”The moment she took his name, he felt his heart thudding against his chest. He was still in shock how she has such a profound effect on him.His legs automatically started moving towards her.On the other hand, Rose felt her cheek burning when his eyes were staring deep down in her soul. She looked down in embarrassment.Elijah didn’t feel his mother’s intense gazes on him as he moved towards his mate. Now, he was standing right in front of Rose.Rose lifted her head up and their eyes met again for the second time. Elijah’s hand moved towards her cheek like an automatic reaction.Both of them were so lost in each other that they almost forget that they had company. Like it was just them in the entire mansion. ‘Just them’He caressed her cheek gently with his thumb and Rose felt a wave of electricity passing through her entire body.She wanted to jump in his arms and let him know how much she missed him and he wanted to the same, take her in his arms and fo
Elijah’s POV;“Your mate is here” My heart began pounding against my chest, the moment I heard those words.So, I was right. She is here already. She came for me.It’s been days since I met her but I already feel like I know everything about her. I don’t know how but this is crazy.Is it how being each other’s ‘soulmate’ means?“Where is she staying?” I asked plainly, keeping my excitement under control.I am the Future Werewolf King, I am not allowed to show my emotions in front of others. As my father always say, ‘Your emotions are your biggest enemy!’“She is staying at your chambers, Your Highness. Ms. Swan was the one who came up with this idea. I tried to..” the servant was dripping with sweat.Must be because Layla didn’t inform me about this and not everyone is allowed to stay at Crown Prince’s chamber, not even his mate until they are marked.I don’t know how she managed to lure mom for this but I am really proud of her.‘Good Job, Layla!’“Very well. You may leave now” I smi
Elijah’s Mother Luna Queen Phebe’s POV;“I wasn’t imagining things. She indeed look exactly like her” Now that I have seen it with my own eyes, I was more astonished than before. How can I not guess before?“Look like who, if I may ask?” Hazel asked confusedly.‘Is she even for real?’“Rose, Crown prince’s mate. Doesn’t she look like Mary?” I asked with an arched eyebrow.“Oh, yes, your Highness. Now that you have mentioned it, she is indeed the exact copy of Ms. Mary Dawson” Hazel nodded her head with a bright smile.That darn fool! Why is she smiling like that?“Didn’t you think that when you first saw her?” I asked, while glaring at Hazel for playing fool with me.“Pardon me, Your Majesty. I thought she looked like someone I knew when you first said it but I also couldn’t remember as it’s been nearly three decades since I saw Ms. Dawson last” She looked down with fear.“It’s okay. It’s good enough that we know now” I said while turned around to move out of the room.I don’t have mu
Rose’s POV;“WHAT? A war?” My eyes turned as wide as the moon.“Yeah, Elijah, Alpha King Cole, Liam, and others went to a war with vampires” Layla explained anxiously. All the worry that she was hiding in her eyes was now visible in her delicate face.“Vampires exist?” I asked astonished by one other fact that I was blinded to.“Unfortunately, yes and they attacked my pack, Silver Moon. My family and my pack are in grave danger. I don’t know if they are even alive or not. Elijah and others went there as soon as possible to protect them” As the painful reality came out in the open, tears started rolling out of her eyes.“I am sorry to hear that” I hugged her gently and patted her back to show my support. I cant even imagine what she is going through.I knew she was in no condition to talk any further.After a while, she parted from me and wiped her tears from her now ruby face. I took her hand and sat on the most giant bed I have seen in my entire life. I was really amazed by the inter
Rose’s POV;“Layla, is he in some kind of danger?” I asked, with uneasy thought, my heart was thudding against my chest. “He is The Future Werewolf King, he is always in danger” She waved her hand casually like its normal to always be in danger.“What’s the other reason?” I asked curiously.“Whenever he goes, people follow. People stare at him like mad dogs and don’t even get me started with those bimbos who lust over him, all the damn time. He was never interested in that kind of attention. Hence, he keeps his things private. Only a few people have access to his chambers.” Layla explained patiently.We were passing through a gigantic wooden door that was carved to perfection.“That’s Elijah’s room” She pointed toward the giant door as we walked past it. It really took us a while to pass the entire area to reach another door which was nearly as big as Elijah’s door.“So, how many people stay in here, in this very chamber?” I asked as we were standing near the second door.“Just Elija
Rose’s POV;‘Have I seen him somewhere?’“Sister in law, it’s rude to stare” the young guy said, coughing a little to bring me back to reality.Even his voice sounds familiar. Am I going nuts?“Oh, I apologize. It’s just., you look a little familiar” I replied, coughing back in embarrassment.‘A little? Not really! He looks a lot familiar but my darn brain just couldn’t recollect!’ I cursed my beautiful brain like always.“I am pretty sure I have never met you before” he replied nonchalantly.No doubt, the kid was confident but the way he spoke it was straight away rude. Nobody was interested in that miniature sized guy when I have the mighty werewolf king for myself.“I beg your pardon?” I replied, plastering a tight smile.“I wasn’t being rude, sister in law, if that’s what you are concerned about” was his another nonchalant reply.‘Can he read mind? Is this kid special?’ I thought but his next statement dragged me out of my chain of thoughts. “It’s just, they always keep me locked
Rose’s POV;“Why didn’t you change?” She asked confusedly.“Thank you for helping me but I really want her to like me as I am. Elijah accepted me for who I am” I said“I understand and trust me, I really appreciate you being real. Let’s go meet his mother then” She smiled, she was so understanding.She is an angel!We moved towards the great hall again and then through the center, we moved inside another long chamber.After walking for a while, we finally reached near the Royal chamber.“Does Elijah stays here too?”“Nope, Elijah and Cora stays at the first floor”“Entire floor?”“Yeah. You have been given room adjacent to Elijah for now. I will take you there later”“I am afraid I will get lost in this huge castle” I replied“Don’t worry, you will be all fine” She addedShe knocked on the door which looked like it was straight from fairy tale.“Aunt Phebe, can we make your acquaintance?” She asked“Please come inside, my dear Layla” came a melodic voice from inside.She opened the do
