Chapter 11: Mate's son

Autumn's POV Unable to take my eyes off it, I nodded. It was very striking. and horrifying. I had assumed I was going into a pack. I recognized now that I was walking into a prison. one that I came up with. As we got closer, the gates opened. As we went by, the guards saluted. I got a peek at their faces. Hard. Alert. These were not the indolent border patrols I knew. These were experienced fighters. The packlands spread out before us inside the fortifications. a mix of more traditional pack structures and modern buildings. Everything was shining. Clean. Prosperous. Powerful. As we drove, Mathias pointed out locations. the exercise area, the medical facility, and the educational institution. As he related the history of the pack, his voice grew proud. How they had developed into one of the most powerful packs in the nation from a tiny, struggling gang. I paid attention. Nodded. smiled when it was appropriate. However, I felt empty within. Empty. Despite its grandeur, this venue fe

Chapter 12: A Trick of the Eye

Autumn POV I picked up the mask and touched the elaborate design with my fingertips. It was similar to keeping a secret. How appropriate. After assisting me with mask security, Mrs. Potts took a step back to evaluate her job. "Oh, Miss. They won't be able to breathe after you." I gave her a smile, appreciating her generosity. But with every minute that went by, fear spiraled closer inside. The mantelpiece clock struck seven. A maid materialized in the doorway as if by omen. She curtsied and said, "Beg your pardon." "But the guest of honor is requested to make her entrance." Mrs. Potts gave me a handshake. "Love deep breathes. You'll succeed." I gave a nod, lacking confidence in my ability to act further. As she escorted me out of the room, Mrs. Potts's incessant speech provided a calming background to my racing mind. She remarked, "Now don't you worry about a thing?" as we strolled. "Just nod and grin. Let Mathias speak for himself. If someone invites you to dance, sim

Chapter 13: The Dance of the Devil

Autumn's POVThe tune intensified. Mathias's hand was waiting there. I gazed at it. My thoughts were empty. The room fell silent. Everyone is looking at us."Shall we, my dear?" Mathias spoke in a soft voice. Not in his eyes, however.I reached into his hand. It was a surrendering feeling. He guided me to the ballroom's center. Like the Red Sea, the multitude was divided. I felt like they were staring at me. Judging. waiting on my failure.Mathias touched my waist with one hand. I winced. He acted as though he were blind. He lifted our combined hands. I stiffly and hesitantly followed his direction.The tunes began. Mathias shifted. I faltered."Calm down," he murmured. I felt his warm breath in my ear. "Follow my lead."I made an effort. God, I really did try. My feet, though, were lead. My body refused to comply. We made abrupt circles. I infringed on his rights. Once. Twice. thrice.Mathias was always smiling. However, his hold became more firm. Warning.Gazing down, I saw our feet

Chapter 14: Heat and Deceit:

Autumn POVHe whirled at me. He drew me closer again. Our bodies squeezed together. "You're not my mate," he said. It was not a question. I shake my head. "No." "Then what is this?" His voice sounded harsh. Desperate. "I don't know," I replied. And it was the truth. The music reached a crescendo. Kavan dipped me low. My back arched. His face was just inches from mine. For a minute, just a moment, I thought he might kiss me.I had a brief moment where I believed he might kiss me.The music then stopped. He straightened me out.

Chapter 15: Secrets

Autumn's viewpointKavan's expression was twisted with revulsion. He spit out, "My father?" "You're carrying my father's child?"Unable to meet his gaze, I nodded."Please," I murmured. Now the need was intolerable. "Aid me. I need, but I can't."Something flashed in Kavan's eyes. Desire? Anger? I was unable to tell.I had a brief moment of fear that he would cave in. Maybe they'll take me straight to the restroom.His face then became stern. "No," he responded. He spoke in a frigid tone. "Avoid being around me. Knowing what's best for you will make you avoid it."He turned to walk away. stopped at the entrance. "I'll tell my father everything if you breathe a word of this to anyone," he declared.

Chapter 16, Breakfast with the Devil

Chapter 15, Breakfast with the Devil Autumn's Viewpoint The night was unending. A feverish dream. I slipped in and out of consciousness, stuck between blazing heat and cold chills. Mrs. Potts' incense gave the room a strong, suffocating fragrance. It hid my heat, she'd added. I kept my secret safe. But it couldn't stop the dreams. Kavan's face. Twisted with disgust. There was hatred in his eyes. Mathias' hands. Possessive. Claiming what was not his. A child. Growing within me. A ticking time bomb. When dawn arrived, I was unsure whether I had slept at all. My eyeballs felt dirty. My head hammered. Each muscle ached. Mrs. Potts rushed in, pulling open the curtains. Sunlight pierced my eyes. I groaned. "Up and at 'em, miss," she called. "There's no time to spend. "His Lordship will be expecting you." I blinked at her. I tried to make sense of her words despite the fuzz in my brain. A sudden knock at the door startled us both. Sarah, the maid from last night, stuck her head in.

Chapter 17: The Weight of the Crown

Kavan POVMy boots made loud noises on the marble floors as I stormed out of the dining room in anger. The taste of anger lingered in my mouth, bitter and sharp. I ascended the staircase, skipping two steps each time, with my fists clenched tightly by my body. The portraits of my ancestors watched me closely as I passed by, silently judging. I was indifferent. Allow them to make a judgment. They had passed away, and I was still living.When I walked into my room, it was dim and chilly. I turned on the lights and went to the wardrobe, pulling open the doors with excessive force. The scent of cedar and leather filled my nasal passages. I took out a fresh white shirt and black pants, throwing them onto the bed.There was a sound of knocking at the door. I was unable to reply before it opened suddenly. I turned quickly, with a growl in my mouth.Mrs. Potts was holding a tray as she stood at the doorway. Her usual severe bun held back her gray hair, while her eyes showed the same mix of ex

Chapter 18: Jealous

Kavan POVI loathed it."My father spoke, his voice consciously impartial, to Kavan." "I was surprised to see you here."I stood up, making my face show no emotion. I could express the same sentiment. This is not a place for non-military personnel.Autumn flinched at the word, and a small, mean part of me was pleased.My father's eyes hardened. "We were just leaving. Come, Autumn."He placed a hand on her lower back, guiding her past us. As they passed, Autumn's eyes met mine for a brief moment. There was something in them—fear? Defiance? I couldn't tell. I looked away."Your Majesty?" Marcus's voice was tentative. "Shall we proceed?"I noticed that I was not moving, with my fists tightly closed by my hips. I made them unwind, disregarding the pain in my hands from digging my nails."I said yes with a clipped voice." "Let's finish this quickly."The small interrogation room was bare, with bright fluorescent lights glaring above. As I entered, the slaver, chained to the table, widened

Chapter 19: Panic Attack

Autumn POVAs Mathias led me away, I found myself unable to resist sneaking another look at Kavan. He was tall and authoritative, and he stood there with a face that showed no emotion. He looked past me as though I were invisible, treating me like a mere object. A sudden, sharp pain pierced through my chest, catching me off guard. I forced myself to swallow, attempting to suppress it."Autumn ?" Mathias's words interrupted my train of thought. "Are you okay?"I agreed silently, unable to trust my own words. If I were able to, what could I possibly express? Did his son's lack of warmth affect me? Did I feel a mysterious attraction to him that I couldn't understand? Was I frightened, bewildered, and directionless?Mathias examined me briefly, his eyes gentle yet probing. He was as tall as Kavan but had a wider build on the shoulders. His hair was a combination of salt and pepper colors, he was well-groomed, and he had smile lines around his eyes. He exuded a relaxed confidence that drew

Chapter 20: Mark

Autumn POV"There, now," she said with a calming voice. "Shall we go and get you a cup of tea?"I agreed, appreciative of her peaceful demeanor. While she hurriedly made tea, I gradually started to unwind. The fear subsided, leaving fatigue behind.Mrs. Potts came back carrying a hot mug and placed it in my hands. The heat penetrated my bones, anchoring me."Okay," she said, sitting down in the chair opposite me. "Are you interested in discussing what occurred?"I paused, then carefully placed the mug on the surface. My hands gestured, creating the symbols I had mastered many years before."I have been mute," I signed. "Since I was a child."Mrs. Potts was surprised at first but then became more understanding. "You are familiar with sign language," she said, mimicking my hand movements.I nodded, relief washing over me. Finally, someone I could truly communicate with."I learned years ago," Mrs. Potts explained, her signs fluid and practiced. "My nephew is deaf. Now, tell me about th
