Chapter: Chapter 55: The Masked DevilBella took a shower and headed to work since Lucian wasn’t home. The house felt dull and empty. She was still sore, but she pushed the discomfort aside and carried on.When she entered Maria’s office, she immediately noticed something was off. Maria sat behind her desk, unusually quiet, staring into space.“Maria,” Bella called.No response.“Maria!” she raised her voice.Maria flinched and looked up. “How long have you been standing there?”“Just a minute,” Bella replied, settling into the chair opposite her. “What’s wrong? This isn’t like you. Is something bothering you?”“No… no, I’m fine,” Maria said quickly.Then she added, “Have you heard the news? Your husband is launching a new project tomorrow night. He’s hosting a party.”Bella stiffened.Confusion washed over her. Lucian always told her about his projects. They usually celebrated together before the public events.“Are you sure?” Bella asked, her voice tight. “He never mentioned anything like that to me.”Maria raised an ey

Chapter: Chapter 54: Protection or Possession“Lu..ahh, Lucian!” Bella screamed as his palm cracked against her ass for the fifteenth time.Her cheeks burned bright red, stinging fiercely, tears spilling freely down her face.Lucian could see she had reached her limit. He leaned down, dragged his tongue slowly over her clit, then moved higher. He kissed the tender, heated skin, gently spreading her apart.“Wait, I haven’t washed…” Bella whimpered, suddenly self-conscious.“Shh. I don’t care,” Lucian murmured against her.He circled her rim with soft licks and reached for the lube, poured a generous amount over her, massaging it in with careful strokes, then added more to his finger and eased it inside, slow and steady.Bella bit her lip at the strange intrusion…neither entirely pleasant nor painful, just… new.Lucian worked a second finger in.“How does it feel, Bella?”She let out a small, shaky whimper, a mix of discomfort and faint pleasure.He added the third.“Oh, fuck,” she gasped, voice cracking.“Breathe,” he spoke roughl

Chapter: Chapter 53: Devotion without LoveIt was 5 a.m. and Lucian was already up. He stepped out of the shower, wrapped a towel around his waist, and began choosing his clothes…ignoring the outfit Bella had laid out for him the night before.Bella stirred, opened her eyes, and sat up slowly on the bed. She watched him for a moment.“Why do you leave for work so early now?” she asked calmly. “And you don’t like the clothes I pick out anymore.”She slipped out of bed and walked over, pressing herself against his back, arms circling his waist, lips brushing his back.“You weren’t like this a few months ago. What’s wrong?”Lucian turned to face her.“I have work to do , besides clothing taste changes.”Bella slid her arms over his shoulders.“Fine, but… it’s five in the morning. You’re the CEO. It’s your company. You can go later or not at all.” Her voice dropped. “I’m sorry about yesterday. I didn’t like how angry you looked.”She leaned in and kissed his lips softly.“I need you to fill me up at least before you leave. And tel

Chapter: Chapter 52: Shadows of LoveThree months went by so quickly and Bella was head in the clouds for lucian and now, they were legally married.They lay tangled in each other’s arms on their first night as husband and wife.“The priest asked such a strange question,” Bella murmured sleepily. “About who would die first… I’d rather we die on the same day. Don’t you agree?”Lucian smiled. “I’d rather die before you.”Bella frowned and lifted her head slightly. “Don’t say that. I know we’ll die someday, but I want your name on me even then. Maybe I’ll tattoo it under my eye. What do you think?”Lucian chuckled. “Are you that brave?”“Yes,” she said without hesitation, nestling closer to him. “Because I’m madly in love with my husband.”Minutes later, her breathing evened out as sleep claimed her.Lucian watched her quietly, his gaze distant.Slowly, he pushed her away from his body and turned to the other side of the bed.*******Lucian woke early the next morning and made breakfast himself.Bella felt pampered, cherish

Chapter: Chapter 51: Heart in the SpotlightBella slept through the morning after they got home.By evening, she was up and getting ready for work. Maria had already sent her a reminder, and Bella knew she had to tell Lucian about working with Caspien…but the thought made her nervous.She walked to his door, knocked lightly, then pushed it open.Lucian looked up.“You don’t have to knock,” he said calmly. “This is your room too.”Bella smiled nervously.“I… um, I have something to tell you.”“Hm?” He stood and walked toward her, his hand settling around her waist. “Go on.”“You won’t get angry, right?” she asked, searching his face.Lucian frowned slightly, his eyes narrowing.“What is it?” he said. “I won’t get angry. You have my word.”She took a breath.“Maria is collaborating with Dante Industries,” she said softly. “And… I was chosen to model with Mr. Dante himself.”She waited, tense, expecting an explosion.Instead, Lucian exhaled slowly and met her gaze.“I trust you,” he said. “Go. I’ll be there to watch you.”Bella st

Chapter: Chapter 50: Lavender And ControlBella gripped his shoulders and hopped; he caught her easily, strong hands sliding under her thighs as her legs wrapped around his waist.Lucian lowered her back onto the couch with care, then bent to take one breast into his mouth, sucking gently while his tongue circled the sensitive peak.She arched beneath him, breath hitched, fingers threading through his hair.“Hmm,” Bella hummed, pleasure coursing through her.He slicked her peachy nipples with his tongue, swirling slow circles around each one until her clit throbbed with need.“L… Lucian,” she murmured, cradling his head and pressing her breast firmer against his mouth. “Suck it more, please.”“You like it?” he asked, voice low.“Yes, I like it so much,” she admitted, too caught in the feeling to care if it stroked his ego.He obliged, sucking harder, faster, drawing a sharp gasp from her.With a wet pop he released her breast. “We can’t stay here forever, can we?” His tone was dark and teasing.Lucian kissed a slow path down

Chapter: Chapter 75: Frost and FireSerena’s eyes shimmered with tears.“I… I noticed that after the wounds, I couldn’t connect with my wolf. The poison was strong, Your Highness. I… I’ll stay back. I don’t want to waste anyone’s time,” she lied smoothly. Kaelen narrowed his eyes, sensing that there was truth in her claim. Responsibility, he decided, should fall on his shoulders.“Prepare a carriage for her,” he ordered.Shortly, a specially-prepared carriage arrived.Naya, still reeling from her first wolf shift and the overwhelming sensations, flanked Serena’s carriage. She decided that once they reached their destination, she would speak with her mother…she needed answers.Soon, the cold greeted them. The name Frostmoon lived up to itself…snow-covered grounds stretched endlessly, and glaciers of ice glimmered under the pale sun. Another reason Kaelen had insisted they travel in wolf form: their thick furs would shield them from the biting cold.A loud howl tore through the air as the gates swung open.The Alpha lea

Chapter: Chapter 74: Shifting TidesKaelen stood by the window, his hair moving softly in the cool morning breeze. He turned when the door opened and shut with a sharp bang. To his own surprise, he didn’t feel anger at her sudden entrance. “Your Highness,” she bowed, then slowly lifted her head. “I was told you requested my presence.” Serena’s eyes lingered on him for a heartbeat, unable to help herself. He looked as lethal as ever. Kaelen studied her quietly before speaking. “Why did you jump in and risk your life for me?” he asked, genuine curiosity threading his voice. Because I love you, she answered silently, which he didn't hear. “It was instinct,” Serena said aloud. “I saw the danger and didn’t think. There was no other choice.” Kaelen stared at her, studying her face as though another answer might reveal itself if he looked long enough. “What do you want in return?” he asked at last, his voice cool. “You could be made a consort.” Serena resisted the urge to roll her eyes outwardly. “I’m

Chapter: Chapter 73: Unanswered QuestionsSomaya looked at her, confused, wondering why she was being told to eat the fruit.“I said eat it,” Lirvana said through gritted teeth.Fear crawled up Somaya’s spine. What if it was poisoned? She shook her head slowly, refusing.Lirvana grabbed a knife.Somaya’s eyes widened as she stepped back, intending to reach the door.“Take another step,” Lirvana warned coldly, “and I will cut you open, and nothing will happen.”Somaya froze, breaking into a cold sweat, her body trembling with fear.Lirvana cut a chunk of the fruit and yanked her closer, forcing it into her mouth.“Chew and swallow it.”Somaya obeyed. The taste was sweet, but she felt no pleasure from it.Lirvana released her, though the knife remained pointed at her.“Now tell me,” she said sharply, “what is Janina’s motive in this castle? Is she truly helping me, or not?”Somaya knew instantly she was doomed. The fruit was a truth-binder. Once it settled, lies would be impossible.She tried to fight it, clenched her jaw, but

Chapter: Chapter 72: A maids SacrificeKaelen stared at the body at his feet, blood pooling beneath her. The sight dragged him back to the day Elora died…only this time, it was a maid, and she had given her life to save his. Thayne had already taken off after the assassin with the guards, but Kaelen knew it meant nothing. Catching the culprit would not save Serena as she lay dying before him. Without hesitation, the Alpha bent down and gathered her into his arms. “Call the healers and the priestess,” he ordered. The celebration died instantly. The music fell silent, the laughter vanished, and the rain that had begun the night already ceased, as though the sky itself had withdrawn. From a distance, Janina watched, her lips tightening in quiet frustration. The plan had failed. A poison that potent took time, patience, and precision to prepare…and it had been wasted. Her gaze hardened as it fixed on Kaelen, resentment burning beneath her calm exterior. Beside her, Lirvana noticed the look. She had suspected Janina

Chapter: Chapter 71: Blood and RainSerena looked at him as though he were joking.“Arrest who?” she asked, her voice cutting through the room.A sharp intake of breath followed. Thayne stiffened, the guards exchanged looks…a maid questioning the King?Before she could react, Thayne seized her arm.Her heart slammed violently. Did Kaelen find out I was human?No, don’t be foolish. Don’t sell yourself out.Cry. Now.Tears flooded her eyes on command.“I haven’t committed any offense, Your Highness,” she said, her voice trembling as a tear slipped down her cheek.“You do not know the pack you belong to,” Kaelen said coldly. “And there is no such thing as rogues in Selvayra. Now answer me. Where did you come from? Which traitorous Alpha sent you here to kill me?”“Are you out of your goddamn mind? I came to save you, not kill you.”The words burned on her tongue, but she swallowed them back. As long as he could not prove she had done anything wrong, he could not keep her locked away forever. Still, fear crawled beneath her

Chapter: Chapter 70 :The King's GazeSerena kept her head bowed like a proper maid while Somaya scanned through them, assigning each their work posts for the day in preparation for the celebration.Somaya had already selected two maids. Serena crossed her fingers beneath her sleeves, silently praying the third would be her, and to her luck…“You,” Somaya said pointing at her “The King’s chambers. Now.”Serena released a quiet breath of relief and walked confidently toward Kaelen’s chambers, careful not to show how fast her heart was pounding.The rest of the maids exchanged uneasy glances. None of them looked excited about working in the King’s chambers.******* (Kaelen’s chamber)The Alpha King stared blankly at Lirvana, who stood in his chamber questioning him with tears in her eyes. He couldn’t have cared less…even if she shed blood, it wouldn’t move him.“Why are you doing this?” she demanded. “I thought you would accept me by now. It’s fine if I am not crowned, but what about what I deserve? Why do you
