Adelina's pov:The door closed and the man approached me standing in front of me. He looked at me upside down with his piercing gaze. I raised my head and looked back. When I realized his identity I remained speechless. My mind was clouded and I could not articulate a single word. How could he be him?-"Hello dear! How nice to see you again. How are you feeling?" he said shamelessly interrupting my thoughts.-"You? What are you doing here?" I asked in surprise.-"Soon I am going to explain everything to you but firstly let me apologize for the way you came here as well as for the place they brought you to stay. Unfortunately the situation is such that I can not do otherwise. I hope you feel comfortable."-"Oh yeah.....He is so terribly sorry.....Why the fuss? The place is like a 5 stars hotel. Is he blind or is he just kidding us?" my wolf interrupted in my head.-"If you wanted me to be comfortable you could at least untie me. I promise I won't try to escape".-"Oh yes yes....I am re

Μaximus' pov:In the cabin there was an old table and some old chairs and half a damaged fireplace in the east corner. It was obviously deserted for years but we found evidence that someone was there a few days ago. We could not be sure if the person who stayed there was Adelina or someone else as the sense had already evaporated. We found some food waste, two torn black T-shirts and a half-broken bed. The cabin was in chaos. Certainly the man who was here was not human. How could a human survive in such a deserted and dangerous place?My men and I, scanned the entire area around the cabin to no avail. Unfortunately, we did not find anything else. There were no traces as the rain the day before has vanished them. -"Nothing, nothing, nothing at all. Where did she go? She could not have disappeared like that. I am sure I got her sense" Drako said frustrated in my mind.I didn't say anything. I was also very disappointed. At one point, I really thought we were so close to find her. Unfo

Maximus' pov:In the last two days, my most trusted men found all the traitors whose names were on the list and put them in the dungeons. We had caught so many that we had to send many to other packs’ prisons. The Council forbade us from mistreating or torturing any of the accused. It wanted everything to be done according to the law. The trials would begin five days from now on each pack in the presence of at least one Council member. The court will decide how hard the punishment will be for each one of them. I respect the Court's decision, but I have informed them that if the punishment they inflict on any of my pack members is resilient, I will impose a more severe one. I will not tolerate traitors to get away with it so easily.-"Alpha, Mario Lupo is on the phone. Do you want me to pass the line?" my secretary Jemma said.-"Pass the line immediately" I replied.-"Maximus Drako what a pleasure to hear you again" Mario's voice full of arrogance was heard from the telephone.-"Where

Chapter 48 - The skirmishes Maximus’ pov: The skirmishes arrived and even though I was devastated by Adelina's behavior I managed to train a lot during this time. I have to admit I'm in pretty good shape, better than ever I would say. I let Chris take charge of the pack and was accompanied by Dimitri and a few warriors. Many Alphas joined in, aspiring to become the new King of all werewolves. I knew the competition would be tough, but I was confident in the abilities of my wolf and mine. Skirmishes consisted of three rounds. The first round was all about your knowledge of the kingdom over history, finances, packs, etc. The second involved contests of skill and the third was the battles between the contenders for the King's throne. I managed to get through both rounds with ease, I must say. As for the first round, no one knew more about the kingdom than me. From a young age my grandfather always taught me about our species and our history. He was a scholar who had written the most im

Maximus' pov: After a long and tedious meeting I managed to return to my office. I hate meetings a lot. They are always full of noise and completely ineffective. I mind linked Edward, my Delta, asking him if he had sent the flowers. He answered that he had sent them hours ago. So why didn't she call me to thank me? Am I so unwanted to her? -"Maybe she didn't get them yet! You should call her back and check it out! Oh! And ask her if she liked them" Drako suggested. -"You know something? That is an excellent idea!" -"All my ideas are excellent" he replied cockily. I was ready to give her a call when Demetrio, my Gamma burst into my office in frustration. It isn't something he is used to do. He always respects and adheres to the hierarchy. I do not know what really caught him today. Surely it was something of extreme importance. -"What the hell are you doing?" I asked him angrily. -"I am sorry Alpha but I needed to see you immediately. It's about something very important." -"What
