Chapter Forty – Lyra’s Disobedience

Leandros’s POV I tried my best to keep myself calm around Lyra. She was young, and I didn’t want to scare her with my short temper. Hazel lectured me a lot the next day at my office. She stormed in unannounced and made me realize my mistake. “Scale it down, bro. She can’t deal with your temper. Don’t forget, she’s nine years younger than you.” “I’ve got it. I promise I won’t lose my shit again. But it wasn’t entirely my fault. Michael shouldn’t have incited me.” She got up to leave. “Yes, he has apologized for pulling your legs.” I sighed with relief, the matter forgotten. After last evening, Lyra had stopped freely interacting with me. I didn’t like the apprehensive look on her face ever since I erupted. Hazel was right. She was too young to deal with me. I swore to make it up to her in the evening. I kept postponing the urge to call her throughout the day. I didn’t want to portray a creepy picture of myself. It was evening when we concluded the meeting and wrapped up for the da

Chapter Forty-One – A Kiss For A Kiss

Lyra’s POV After dinner, I dreaded going to the bedroom, knowing Leandros would want his kiss. This time, I was adamant. He just couldn’t expect me to kiss him all the time. What about my needs? Even I needed a kiss from him? I was almost eighteen. Yet I hadn’t received my first kiss from my mate. What was the big deal about turning eighteen? I hated his backdated principles. No one was here to judge him if he kissed me now. I refused to give in to his demand this time. If he needed a kiss, he would have to kiss me first. I helped Lena wrap up the cleaning up.“Thanks for your help, Lyra. I wouldn’t have managed so much without the two of you. I hope Zephyrus rescues Hera soon and returns home fast. I’m exhausted.” “Any news so far about Hera?” She shook her head. “They might have just reached Aromania. I’ll call him tomorrow.” She trudged over to her bedroom while I braced myself to face my mate. I had expected him to come here and create a scene, but strangely, he hadn’t. It w

Chapter Forty-Two – Felixe’s Pressure

Leandros’s POV For the next four days, we took it up as a challenge to persuade one other. While I wanted her to give in and kiss me, Lyra wanted me to take her out. With both of us obstinate, none of us gave in. Therefore, the situation was hostile at home. While I came over to my office, Lyra spent her time at Lena’s school helping her. The inauguration of the learning center excited her, but sadly, there were no courses suitable for her. She was adamant about pursuing a degree in fashion design and nothing else. It was a hopeless situation as the best colleges for Fashion Design were outside the state of the Northern Territories and in Ontario. I couldn’t let her go so far away from me. Zephyrus called to inform me they had rescued Hera, and she was recuperating. Once she was better, Felixe would take her home to Yellowknife. It was a relief indeed, and I waited for Zephyrus’s arrival from Aromania. It was evening, and I had wrapped my work for the day when my phone buzzed with

Chapter Forty-Three – An Unexpected Threat

Leandros’s POV The next day, I waited all day for Zephyrus’s call. His phone was unreachable and there was no way I could know why he had called me last night. Maybe he was on his way home. I couldn’t meet Lyra too before leaving for work. After the kiss we shared last night, she had been hiding in her room. Therefore, I couldn’t tell her I was planning to take her out tonight. I called her at lunchtime, but she avoided taking my call. It was frustrating to know she was avoiding me. I would have to normalize the situation between us tonight. However, a call from Stavros in the evening ruined my plans with Lyra. “Come over to the packhouse right now. Zeph just arrived. It’s urgent.” I frowned with worry, a feeling of dread spreading over me. What could the urgency be? Why did Zephyrus call me so many times last night?I dropped my plans with Lyra and drove over to the packhouse. It was good that I didn’t inform Lyra about my plans or she would have been upset. Parking my car, I r

Chapter Forty-Four – Leandros Left?

Lyra’s POV My heart thumped wildly with excitement as I reached the closet. I had always wanted to see the place where my mate had grown up. I wanted to meet his first crush, his aunt, who had brought him up. Now that wish would come true. It would be my first trip outside my country to a foreign land. “Stop, Lyra. You can’t accompany me.” Leandros’s desperate plea brought me out of my excitement. I turned to see the torn look on his face. “Why not? I have my passport. I can ask Uncle Felixe to send me my bank card to withdraw money. There’s a lot of money in my account.” “It’s not about money or documents. Uncle Georgios, the king of Aromania, is unwell and I’m going to see him. This isn’t a joyous occasion for you to visit them. Please, Lyra, try to understand the situation. I’ll take you when he recuperates.”“My presence won’t hamper his treatment in any way, Leandros. I’ll take care of him too. Don’t leave me here and go away. I hate being alone.” My heart twisted in pain at

Chapter Forty-Five – An Impossible Task

Leandros’s POV I reached the kingdom of Argyros after almost twenty-four hours. I didn’t want to involve my folks in Aromania. What if King Iliad declared war on them? It was better to talk to him first. Nestled in northwestern Greece, in the Zagori region of the Pindus Mountains, the kingdom of Argyros was inhabited by the Argus Howlers. Dimitra’s family had ruled them for years, but the situation was bleak now.This was the only generation where, in the absence of a male Alpha heir, the Alpha king was in a dilemma. Princess Dimitra was a weak heir with no interest in ruling her pack. As such, her father was forced to resort to unfair means to get her mated to an able alpha male who wouldn’t take advantage of her situation. Having known me since childhood, the Alpha king trusted only me with his daughter. It was understandable since I belonged to an alpha lineage, too. My mom was the daughter of the alpha of our neighboring pack when she eloped with my father.The car brought me fr

Chapter Forty-Six – Imprisoned In Argyros

Leandros’s POV The entire night, I didn’t get a wink of sleep. My mate’s innocent face kept flashing across my mind. She was in pain, in tears, only because of me. She didn’t deserve this at all. All the time, I thought of ways to convince King Iliad to let me go. I knew I couldn’t convince him. With his rigid thinking, he was a tough nut to crack. If anyone could make him change his mind, it was Dimitra, but I doubted she would. It was because of her obsession with me I was forced to face this shit. My blood boiled with fury and at that moment, I wanted to kill the father and daughter duo and escape from here. The next morning, I waited for the king to summon me, but he didn’t. After a sumptuous breakfast in my room, I paced the floor, waiting for the next course of action. I didn’t have all day to enjoy their hospitality. I was a busy wolf with a business and pack to run. The door opened, and I groaned at the sight of Dimitra in a brighter spirit than last night. “Good morning

Chapter Forty-Seven – All Avenues Closed

Leandros’s POV The moment Dimitra left, I raced back to the balcony. This was my only chance to escape before they imprisoned me here forever. Before I could shift into my wolf, the door opened and King Iliad’s guards rushed in to capture me. How did they know about my plans? Were there cameras installed in the room to capture my movements? “Grab him. He shouldn’t escape. It’s time to throw him in the palace dungeons for not cooperating with our king,” said the poker-faced attendant. Wasting no time, I shifted in the blink of an eye before they could capture me. I jumped from the balcony in my desperation to escape. I couldn’t waste my life here in their dungeon. Lyra was waiting for me at home. “He escaped! Catch him!” yelled the attendants. There was chaos all around while I landed on the treetop of the nearest canopy of Greek fir, a trail that surrounded the palace. It halted my fall, and I eased down to the ground and dashed towards the boundary wall. There was chaos inside t

Chapter Forty-Eight – Leandros Lied To Me?

Lyra’s POV After Forty-Five Days: I trudged towards Hazel’s house after taking the last hobby class in Lena’s school. She started evening hobby classes for the students, which had become a tremendous hit. It allowed me to earn and kept me occupied too. It had been almost one and a half months since Leandros left me that fateful morning. Ever since I had no information about him. Strangely, Zephyrus and the others hardly spoke about him before me. I tried to find out about him, but they always gave a non-committal reply. It seemed they were hiding something from me. Was Zephyrus’s uncle so unwell that Leandros switched off his mobile phone for days? Why did he sever all ties with me?Why didn’t Zephyrus go to Aromania to see his family? Why did he send Leandros instead? Everything was confusing, and I had no one to ask the questions erupting in my mind all day. Lena and Hazel were so busy, we hardly sat down to chat like before. Sometimes I had the feeling they were avoiding me. E

Chapter Forty-Nine – An Unexpected Rescue

Leandros’s POV I opened my bleary eyes in the wee hours of the night in my cell. In another three hours, the sun would be up and I could plan my escape. Today I felt much better. It was a wise decision to not touch last night’s dinner, steeped in drugs. The stupor I was in for almost a month and a half cleared a lot. Although the hunger pangs I felt were intolerable, I could ignore them today. It was important to look for an avenue to escape. It had been almost fifteen days since the evil Dimitra didn’t pay me a visit to fulfill her twisted lust.I just hoped she fell into a hellhole and died a harrowing death. Why couldn’t the Moon Goddess punish her for her crimes?I eased off the bed and stretched my rusted muscles. I had stopped hoping to be rescued. Maybe Zephyrus didn’t want to risk the pack’s safety. Maybe he has opted to forget me instead. There was no one to fight for me, no one to call my own, and no one to get me out of here. If my parents had been alive, I wouldn’t have
