PhillipaAs expected, Andre wasn’t going to take too long to heal. He was still in pain, but he was up and moving about more and more as the days passed and, before long, he was completely healed and taking me out to dinner. Things were going so well that I almost wondered when the other shoe was going to drop, but I forced all negative thoughts out of my mind whenever they popped up.The chaos at home had finally been sorted out, and my family was no longer on edge about it all. The rogue that led the group of Lycans was someone we thought died in the war. My parents believed that, because we thought he was dead and had a funeral, his link to the pack was cut and that was where everything went wrong. He was no longer bound to his oath of loyalty to my family.He was a rogue. Since some of our men were sent out so far and wide to wipe out the werewolves, his soldiers never realized what was going on. They never knew that his orders weren’t ours. A huge misunderstanding had caused so m

PhillipaThe day of the mating ceremony started early for me. I was woken up with breakfast in bed and I could see it was a bittersweet day for my mom especially. Her baby wasn’t just getting mated, but also moving out, but she was happy that I had found my mate.My room felt so empty now that my things had been moved out. I looked around the room while one of the omegas did my hair, and it felt so strange to think that I wouldn’t sleep there again. Thankfully, I was quickly distracted when the day got underway, and I had to get into my dress. It was a beautiful white gown covered in blue sparkles.My hair was up, and soft curls framed my face. My make-up was perfectly natural, and I was convinced I had never looked as beautiful as I did at that moment. My mother helped with my jewellery. Diamond stud earrings and a thin diamond necklace with my signature diamond tennis bracelet. My dad walked in just in time to see my mother putting my tiara on my head and I beamed at him.I was exci

PhillipaOur pack had come full circle and I didn’t realize it until that very moment. We went from killing all the werewolves to mating them, and making them our family. I was so proud of my family and Andre that I didn’t even have the words. Two kingdoms became one and peace reigned after the vampires and slave masters were killed. The last rogue groups were taken care of and the people on the outer reaches of the kingdom were finally safe. It almost felt as if this peace was too good to be true.As we arrived at our destination, I noted the heat was stifling compared to the cool breeze on the boat. It was mid-summer, and before we knew it winter would be upon us. The strong scent of herbs and spices in the market made me sneeze and Andre laughed at me, but I didn’t feel offended. Now that we had gotten past all of our issues, we were so relaxed in each other’s company.It was just so easy to be with him. He knew things about me before I even had to tell him and I tried my best to g

PhillipaA couple of months later, Andre and I announced that we were expecting. We didn’t want to say anything until we were sure everything was okay. Although our kind didn’t have many issues with pregnancy, I was still trying to be careful. I didn’t say it out loud, but I was scared that the peace wouldn’t last. Peace never lasts in our world.The trade treaty my brother negotiated was meant to be the beginning of a new era for our kind, but from the whispers I noted whenever Andre met with my brother, I could tell something was going on. I hated the fact that Andre was probably hiding something from me, but I didn’t ask him about it. I didn’t want him to betray my brother’s confidence.He is one of our top warrior trainers these days. Things were really going great. Or so I thought. I wouldn’t know until they told me what was going on. If it was serious, I didn’t want them distracted by my interference. I needed them to focus on what they were doing. The more time passed, the more

PhillipaI couldn’t believe that it was that easy. Stressful but easy. The trolls weren’t clever enough to realize we had books going back centuries. They were playing the long game in the hopes that people wouldn’t remember. They were going to be kicked out of the treaty agreement by everyone else. They wanted to weaken us. The Lycan kingdom was a threat to everyone, since we were the strongest and largest group.I had to wait for a couple of days for my family to return and used my time to arrange a huge welcome. I had never been so relieved to see all of them back home safe. It wasn’t nice being on this side and having to wait to find out what was happening. I was angry at myself for all my ridiculous fears and insecurities. I was the princess and I never felt as insecure as I did through all of this. It started after I found out I was pregnant. Suddenly, the entire world just seemed too dangerous! I didn’t even notice it before! There were so many things around us that could cause
