Chapter: Chapter 68Ethan's p.o.vThe more revelations I hear Juliana expose, the more I hold on tight for sanity sake. "What?!" Her face squeezed into an interrogating grimace. "You mean you didn't send any of those, Ethan? Because there's absolutely no way you didn't or couldn't have."I flipped my hair roughly to the back, perplexed. "I swear, Juliana. I swear on my dead parents graves that I know absolutely nothing about these letter. The first day I ever got a letter from Freya, I had intended to send some only to be met with heartbreaking words. I mean why would I be asking of my own child now and not the very first day I met her at your wedding with Mark? I'm sure if not for the person that had sent me that anonymous letter about my child with her, I probably wouldn't have known."I find myself literally streaming tears, completely broken in front of Juliana as I felt the redness of my own face. But I couldn't care.I just need to know if Freya has been lying to me or not about Junior. Those blu

Chapter: Chapter 67Ethan's p.o.vI knocked on the door and two little children came to open it. "Hello, lovelies," I waved at them.An older feminine voice followed as her foot steps approached us all by the door. "Charlotte. Leon. Who is it—" her words cut as soon as she saw me by the door."Ethan?""Hello, Juliana. It's been a while."After the final divorce process has been finalized, Jane and I have parted ways peacefully and respectfully. Memories of my heated argument with Freya would usually replay in my head, flooding my thoughts each time I take Dylan to school and see Junior.I try my very best as much as possible not to trespass with him, but at some point, I wanted to snatch a strand of his hair for a DNA but I knew better the implications if I dared to.And so, I chose the other way instead. To visit Juliana— the only one whom I believe can erase my confusion about Junior being my child or at least have an idea on whom might have sent the letter."How have you been?" I asked Juliana as s

Chapter: Chapter 66Freya's p.o.vDamian dropped me gently and my feet landed softly on the marble floor in our bedroom. I felt an ugly shiver run down my spine as his thumb caressed my cheek, his manly hand cupping my side of the face."Thank you, Freya," he said. "You have no idea how much this means to me. Thank you for finally giving me a chance."Although he doesn't know it yet that the reason I had agreed to the marriage was because of his ailing health and the little time he has left before the disease completely take over.But this is a man who had seen me, held me up and believed in me when no one did yet he chose to keep his pain away from me. Honestly, I'd do this over again just to make the last years of his life memorable.I held Damian's hand as his thumb continued to caress my face sending shots of shivers all over my body. "I love you, Damian. I really do. And thank you being the best partner and father to my child. I couldn't have asked for anything more."My wedding gown was strapless,

Chapter: Chapter 65Freya's p.o.v "Yes, I do."The statement finally expelled my lips as I stood right in front of him at the altar of the grand cathedral, him holding my hands as the sunlight streaming through the stained glass windows seemed to mock me.My heart felt heavy, weighed down by the secret residing within. I am marrying Damian, the son of the most richest man in the city and arguably the country, not out of love, but rather out of obligation and respect.Damian had been kind to me throughout the years ever since I got to know him. Right from my course of internship at his company to this very minute, he had and has always been there to lend me a helping hand when I needed it the most. He had helped me get my life back after my last break-up and he would literally drag me to watch the sunset after a long period of neglect. Just recently, I got to know that he has been battling cancer and the disease has been eating him up real bad. I thought of all of our moments together and how unfair I ha

Chapter: Chapter 64Ethan's p.o.vThe hospital room was dimly lit with only a faint hum of machines and drips breaking the silence. Jane had broken down again and her current mental condition requires she stays in the hospital for the meantime. I sat beside her bed, staring blankly at her pale face. I never knew she had IED until now and that fueled my anger the more.I felt my jaw clenched at the mere sight of her as she lay before me, a stranger in all but name.My mind wandered back to the day it all unraveled. The day she had killed Hailey, leaving me unconscious purposely on the crime scene. The day my life turned upside down. I remembered the pain, the confusion, the feeling of being lost and alone if not for my friends advices and help. But most of all, I remembered the shock of discovering that she had been the one behind the crime, not some unknown assailant.The investigation had been blur, but the outcome was clear. The truth had come to light, and the world knew that I was innocent, that I ha

Chapter: Chapter 63Martha's p.o.v"Heeeeeeeelp," Mrs. Landon screamed as streams of blood began to roll down Jane's legs as she laid helplessly on the floor. "My daughter is bleeding. Somebody help!"I tried to run to the female officer close by but it wasn't long until she too came running our way."What's wrong, Madam?" she asked with keen interest."There's an emergency Ma'am. The lady in that cell is bleeding and currently laying unconscious."The female officer and I raced down to meet Mrs. Landon. And whilst we walked, the female officer put a call through to the emergency unit.She opened the cell door and soon three more female officers came to Jane's aid. The ambulance arrived in no time and both Mr.Landon and his wife and I with three more police officers went together with it.We arrived at the hospital and Jane was rushed into the E.U while we stayed at the lobby. The doctor came out after many hours and he confirmed if both Jane's parents were a relative."Yes, Sir. She's my daughter." Mrs

Chapter: Chapter 67Freya's p.o.v"Arachane?"Her brown eyes shone through the night, her long lashes blinked at me as her gaze met mine. I pulled her close, my arms wrapped warmly around her as tears of joy streamed down my face."She's gotten him, Arachane. Ravenna has gotten him." I whispered under my sobs. Arachane unhugged me and I felt myself hiccuping through my tears. "He is out there now making love with her— his enemy. He is in grave danger and I try to make him see but he... he'd hate me instead for it and I don't know what to do. Not with Astrid dead or just something that could help me convince him that he is." The word's flowed out through my lips and it doesn't feel like it."Why did you leave me, Arachane? We need to convince him some how now before its too late?"Arachane only kept mute as I spoke and the scare on her chest caught my attention. It wasn't there the night she had come to rescue me in the pit and I couldn't help but wonder what the story behind it was. I have been so engros

Chapter: Chapter 66Freya's p.o.vThe orange glow of the candlelights in my chamber area of the castle illuminated the night, creating an ethereal look. The beauty of the room is a distinct contrast to my inner turmoil.I could feel his pulse in my ear as my head rested on his arm, stretched across the bed. Lucien will be spending the first night with me and that is because the tradition says so.He probably wouldn't if it were up to him and would rather be with his new found love instead. He hardly strokes my hair like he used to and I can't even remember the last time we have been intimate when infact each night would hardly go by without him trying to be intimate with me or fondling my boobs or a simple good night kiss on the forehead at least. Even though, it's been just few weeks ago since our last intimacy — since his arrival from the wild.Being mated to two in Luparia is a great responsibility and for all I know, you have to be fair with both of them but with taking into consideration the first L

Chapter: Chapter 65Ravenna's p.o.v"Ha!" The word felt like a squeal as the feminine voice giggled instead. Or, perhaps I could be wrong?Curious, I walked towards Freya's room as I stood by the stairs that led to her chambers.The giggling increased and intensified the closer I got, and I definitely can't be wrong with my believe!She isn't dead, yet?!Her body ought to have been fucking six feet deep into the ground right now and not still inside that chamber giggling.Did Mandy think this is some joke or game? Has she even been loyal at all? Ever?Furious yet inquisitive, I hastened my pace towards Freya's chamber. Lucien had gone to the court for some important meeting with the elders and grand council and will soon be joining me there. He had ordered the chariot to transport me to the castle since Freya had insisted she wouldn't be coming or living with us.I love that the bond between them is starting to weaken a little but I need a long lasting solution to that. And intend to deepen that to the

Chapter: Chapter 64Kael's p.o.v I slipped out of the shadows, the moon casting its silvery glow over Alpha Lucien's manor's sprawling scenery. My heart pounded in my chest like a blacksmith's hammer, driven by a singular purpose: to save Freya tonight by nook and cranny. I felt my senses on high alert as I approached Freya's chambers high up the manor after following through a discreet route no one could barely think of. Going through the entrance would have been a huge disaster! My eyes scanned the quiet surroundings for any moving guards. The high walls surrounding the building seemed to loom over me, casting long shadows that stretched like skeletal fingers. I took a deep breath, focusing on the task at hand. I have to reach Freya's chambers before Mandy could carry out her sinister plan. I began to climb the wall, my fingers and toes finding holds in the stone facade. The surface was rough beneath my hands, and I gritted my teeth as I pulled myself up, my muscles straining with effort. The

Chapter: Chapter 63Kael's p.o.v My heart sank and it felt like I had been impaled with tons of knives with Freya's reaction. Her hatred for me is still very much alive in her heart and I doubt if she will ever give me a chance to prove myself at least. She needs to know that she is in grave danger and the new girl, I believe to be Alpha Lucien's second Luna will be looking forward to having her dead before sunrise. Mandy. How could she? Freya has been nothing, but kind and generous to her and this is how she pays her back? By selling her loyalty to that witch obviously! I had overheard their conversation after I had followed her home from the river's wild the other time— the lady with the purple bright eyes. I felt my mind curious about her and I risked trailing behind her all the way. She didn't know I had followed her and snuck into the manor but my instincts told me there was more to her. I was about leaving the manor from a safe distance in the passage area that leads to her chamber w

Chapter: Chapter 62Freya's p.o.v "You should take more, Freya. The herbs won't work well if you don't eat well enough," Katherine said to me as she spoon feeds me on the bed. "Blessed be the moon goddess that you have been recuperating just fine. You don't want to start looking all pale and frail again. Do you?" I opened my mouth slowly and spat out the meal as soon as it entered my mouth. Katherine sighed. She dropped the food by the nightstand beside my bed and have a feel of my body temperature— the back of her hand touching my forehead and neck. She rose to her feet and took the wet rag off the table, placing it gently on my head. "I believe the fever hasn't warded off yet," she said, patting my forehead head with it. "But the herbs will definitely channel their way into your system and cure you. And we shall soon be on our way to the castle—" "That will be over my dead, Katherine!" I retorted sharply, taking the rag off my forehead and tossing to the ground. "I know Lucien had probably al
