All Chapters of Submission II: Twisted Fate (Sequel to Rise of the Bastards): Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Alpha Queen Octavia's POV Antionette's mother, Beatrice, made her argument to the elders about Antionette receiving asylum. Last I heard, Beatrice had found her daughter another suitor. I'm not sure if it is true, but it disgusts me either way. It's been a long time since she's revealed the truth about Lincoln's father and her true lineage with Lady Donyale. Now that my mother finally knows, it seems that things will get better. "Are you nervous?" Tilly sleepily asked. "Emmm, I just want to stay in bed," I said groggily. "Hurry yourself, my Queen! Violet and Vidalia will be here any minute now!" Quinn chuckled. She had way too much energy for my liking this early in the morning. "You all look dreadful," Violet said, bursting into my quarters. "Do you see this, Vi? They all slept over and didn't bother to invite us," Vidalia laughed. "KeepIt down, ladies," I said, putting the pillow back over my head. "Oh, get up! Today is your lucky day! You're marrying my brother. Get up, my Q

Antionette's POV "Rise and shine, my lady!" My newest handmaiden, Ana said happily entering my quarters. "It's too early," I groaned. "Please get up, my lady. "Your mother is on a rampage this morning," Ana nervously explained. "I'll be right there. I demand privacy," I said and she bowed. Lately I've had little to no sleep. With every waking day to that carry Phillip's pup, my back cries for relief. My golden hair flowed down my back with large waves framing my face. My skin glowed under the sunlight, but my lips were swollen with frailty to match my delicate feet. I didn't care these days. I only craved Phillip. My wolf whimpered at the thought. "Mother, will you pleases drop it!" I pleaded. "No! I begged the elders to honor your asylum. Don't you know how close the vote was? Do you have any idea?" she asked. "How could I not? You've only reminded me everyday," I said rolling my eyes. "How could you get yourself knocked up by that...by that runaway?" my mother scoffed. "He's not

Lawrence's POVI cannot believe Matilda slipped through my grasp AGAIN! She will be MINE! I will never let her get away for humiliating me. Neither would Adelina. I ripped her pup from her wound. I thought that would be enough but she still breaths."Where have you been?" Karly asked the moment I walked into the gates of the North Kingdom. "Scouting," I dryly replied. "Where? I've been scouting for days and I've never come across your scent. Neither had I smelled your rogue team. So, where were you?" She asked placing her hands on her hips. "Karly, I'm royalty here. It's best you begin the treat me as such. Is that attitude any way to greet the wolf you share a bed with?" I asked turning her around to force her chest into the wall. "Do you...really think...having sex is going to fix this? It will not!" She complained as I shuffled around her dress for easier access. "No, but it may shut you up for some time I'm hoping," I chuckled ripping her garments from her skin. "Ow!" She squealed

Four years later...Essex and TaviWith all the pressures of the kingdom to bear an heir, the young couple came up empty. They tried for years on end with no luck. The court physician ruled it to be the stress of rescuing the South, East, and West out of turmoil is what caused Tavi to become barren. After hearing the news, Essex refused to believe the two of them could not conceive. The two of them decided to allow the cards to fall where they may. Most of their focus was on preventing another unnecessary war among the kingdoms. It didn't stop the prying elders and allies pushing their beliefs on them. Some even sent whispers of Essex and Tavi's Union being cursed, but the packs love them both. No one would dare challenge them for the throne, or so we thought. With their allies in place, the villages paid less taxes and worked the land so there was enough produce for the masses. Farming the lands proved plentiful and affordable for local farmers. Tavi distracted herself with trying to

Lady Donyale With her plans slowly unfolding without a hitch, Lady Donyale decided the time was near to place her plan in motion. She would declare war on the Alpha King and Queen only after she made the first move. They wouldn't know what hit them. That kingdom was oblivious of the threat that grows against them daily and Donyale used it to her advantage. Lex and Lawrence did whatever she commanded unknowingly that they would have to fight to the death if they both wanted the north. Donyale was aware of little Karly making her play for the north too, which placed Lex in danger because his mate, Taysia hated the sight of him alone. She wouldn't help him fight to be triumphant. Who knew it would be this easy to manipulate wolves she often wondered. With her family staff in hand and family crest on her chest, Donyale felt more powerful as more weapons were being built in her honor and for her army. Her ultimate goal was to fulfill the goal her mother always hoped for. It's the very rea
