Chapter: Chapter 74The drive back to the hospital was quieter than their journey to the hotel had been. The desperate passion of the night before had been replaced by a deeper contentment, a sense of completion that settled around them like a warm blanket."How are you feeling about seeing your parents again?" Trent asked as they pulled into the hospital parking garage.Zora considered the question. "Happy. Nervous. Excited to see how much they've improved." She paused. "Grateful that you're here with me.""Always," he replied, taking her hand as they walked toward the elevators. "We're in this together now."As the elevator doors closed behind them, Zora felt a flutter of anticipation. When the elevator door opened, the same doctor who had intercepted them the day before was waiting.Dr. Matthews stood there, no longer wearing his white coat but dressed in dark clothes.He instantly knelt in front of them. "Alpha, I am very sorry. I didn't mean any harm—I was appreciating her beauty. Please tell the di

Chapter: Chapter 73Zora noticed the glint in Trent’s eyes. She couldn't hear his thoughts, but something told her he was speaking with Argon."Should we try?" she asked softly, her hand resting on his chest.Trent chuckled. “No. I don’t think Argon’s ready. He probably has issues with Zina.”Inside, Argon kicked at him. Don’t drag me into your lies.Zora frowned. “I’m sorry. Zina’s... not exactly warm. She’s stubborn.”“I actually think they make a good pair,” Trent said, his grin returning. “She’d keep Argon in check.”Zora opened her mouth to argue—to say she was strong enough to shift—but stopped herself. Her first marriage had taught her better. Dane had hated when she pushed too hard. She wouldn’t repeat that mistake.“Okay,” she murmured, settling against him. “I understand.”Trent's arms tightened around her, and through their new bond, he felt her easy acceptance."Is there anything you want to tell me?" he asked after a moment."Nothing, I don't have anything hidden again," she replied."About

Chapter: Chapter 72The first rays of sunlight filtered through the hotel room's floor-to-ceiling windows, casting a golden glow across the tangled sheets. Trent lay on his side, watching Zora sleep peacefully in his arms, a smile of pure contentment playing on his lips.He was the happiest man in the world.Just hours ago, he had given himself completely to the woman he loved, sharing not just his body but his very soul. For a man who had waited thirty years for the right person, for someone who had never felt desire until he met her, the experience had been nothing short of transcendent.Zora stirred beside him, her eyes fluttering open to meet his gaze. The smile that spread across her face was radiant, filled with a joy he'd never seen from her before."Good morning, my love," she whispered."Good morning, beautiful," he replied, pressing a gentle kiss to her forehead.What happened next startled them both.“Good morning, handsome,” Zora's voice echoed in his mind, though her lips hadn't moved.Trent

Chapter: Chapter 71Zora's POV.We left the hospital in a daze. My mind was still reeling from everything that had just happened. One moment I thought Trent was rejecting me, the next he was asking my father for my hand in marriage, just like that. That's not how I dreamed my marriage would happen.As we walked toward the car, our hands still intertwined, I finally found my voice."You... you wanted to marry me?""I wanted to do things right," Trent said, stopping beside the car. "I wanted your parents' blessing before I claimed you completely."The way he said 'claimed' sent heat racing through my veins. The binding ritual had awakened something primal in both of us, and the air between us crackled with barely contained desire."Trent..."That was all I managed to say before he spun me around, pressing me against the car door. His lips found mine in a kiss that was desperate, hungry, consuming. All the restraint he'd shown, all the control he'd maintained—it was crumbling."Yes!" Zina practically sang i

Chapter: Chapter 70Zora's POVRelief flooded through me like a dam bursting. After months of carrying the weight of my secrets, my shame, my fears—Trent knew everything. He knew about my failed marriage, my barrenness, my damaged past, and he still wanted me. The man I loved beyond reason had looked at all my broken pieces and called them beautiful.When his lips crashed against mine, I felt like I was drowning and being saved at the same time. Every kiss was a promise, every touch an acceptance I'd never dared hope for. My hands fisted in his chest, pulling him closer, desperate to erase any distance between us. This was what I'd been afraid to want—complete acceptance, unconditional love.“Finally,” Zina purred in my mind, her excitement making my skin tingle. “He wants us. All of us.”But then, suddenly, Trent broke away.The abrupt loss of contact left me reeling, gasping for air. Fear crashed over me like ice water. His eyes were wild, his breathing ragged, but he was pulling away from me—again."T

Chapter: chapter 69Trent hit the wall, pouring his rage out.The sound of Trent's fist connecting with the wall was like a gunshot in the quiet hotel room. The impact was so violent that a spider of cracks spread across the expensive wallpaper, and Zora jumped backwards with a startled cry.For a moment, he stood there breathing heavily, his knuckles bleeding, his entire body trembling with barely contained fury. When he finally turned back to her, his eyes were wild with a rage she'd never seen before."Who?" The word came out as a growl. "Who removed your womb? Who did this to you?""Trent, I—""Was it Dane?" He advanced on her, his movements predatory. "Did that bastard force you to have surgery? Did he make you—""No!" Zora backed against the window, tears streaming down her face. "No, it wasn't like that!""Then what?" His voice cracked with emotion. "What happened to you? Who took away your ability to carry my children? Who hurt you like this?"The questions came rapid-fire, each one laced with pa

None of them saw themselves as supreme over another, but submitted to Asher, who in turn ensured that they were catered to.But his jurisdiction didn't rest only with the werewolves; even the vampire kingdoms as well had accepted his rule, for fear of his retaliation over Lenhandro's invasion.As a result, one month had passed already, yet the tranquillity that had spread all over the whole packs had never wavered a bit.Asher's victory had ushered in a season of peace and stability which extended to all territories.As

Chapter: Chapter 243XenraA great sense of peace flooded me as soon as I heard their words. I had been worried that they might not appreciate what I had done for them since I was an Omega, even though I had been transformed into my own skin.They couldn't even recognise me, which was understandable, as not many people saw me when I was still the vampire queen, and even when I was in that fat Cecilia's body, I didn't come in contact with the elders or pack members; little wonder they were all oblivious to the transformation of my body.As I stared at them, I didn't need any to tell me that they meant what they had just said, and as if they hadn't said enough, he continued,"We've accepted you as our Luna; we don't care about the rumours flying around about whether you're an Omega or not. You've saved us all and have proven to us how deserving you are to be our Luna, and we're all ready to acknowledge you as our Luna." The man's words tumbled out in a fierce rush as he spoke.The expression on his face was

Chapter: Chapter 242XenraStill unable to utter a word, I quickly bent my left shoulder and, at the same time, turned towards it to check for the scar that made me an Omega.As soon as I saw it, my lips gradually joined together, and the smile on my face gradually spread into a broad, peaceful smile.At that moment all I felt was peace. My gaze was still fixed on it when I began to speak. "It seems the moon goddess didn't completely give me back my body." I told him with a small voice."Don't feel bad about it," Asher began to say, brushing off a stray strand of hair from my face, his eyes glinting with excitement as they bore into mine.His words made the smile on my face stretch further, and I couldn't help but chuckle softly. "I'm not feeling bad about it," I replied calmly."What really matters to me right now is that I'm happy. Being the vampire queen came with a lot of stress, and I'm sure you can relate to it. It wasn't easy bearing the burden of the pack on my shoulders and looking out for them a

Chapter: Chapter 241Xenra"Don't get me wrong," Asher swiftly said as soon as the words left my lips. "I perfectly love you the way you are. Just that it'll be unlawful for you to continue this way." A light furrow appeared on his face as he spoke."As long as that impersonator is still alive, people will always mistake her for you," He continued calmly. "You know how she's been tarnishing your image, and she won't stop because she doesn't really care at all, but nobody knows that, they will always think you're the one doing those things,""So I'll want you to have your body back and reclaim your image."Asher's words tumbled out in a rush as he spoke, filled with emotions. His voice oozed the depth of his sincerity as he conveyed it to me.I couldn't deny the truth in his words as I listened to him speak, even though I wanted nothing more.But then I knew he was telling the truth, Cecilia had done more damage to my name, and had never stopped ruining my image, I knew it was best I reclaimed black my b

Chapter: Chapter 240Chapter 240 - Your Real Body.Xenra"I'm going to punish you for killing an innocent soul," Asher's voice was filled with determination as he spoke, his face tight with annoyance.From the look on his face I could see how disgusted he felt. As soon as the words left his lips, Asher's head whipped towards Sylvester."What's the punishment given to a murderer?" He asked, his voice echoing the determination burning within him."Alpha," Sylvester acknowledged with a bow. As he stood back upright he began to speak, "a life taken must be repaid by a life." He answered, his voice dripping in a matching intensity.Meanwhile, Royce had gone silent as he stared at both of them, his chest heaving hard, his face tight with determination as he waited for Asher's final verdict.He was determined to pull her down with him, the look on his face echoed his fierce resolution. He probably thought he was doing a good thing exposing the Alpha's mate, and I knew he would want to garner favour from it.As

Chapter: Chapter 239AsherA derisive snort escaped my nostrils as soon as I heard Royce's words. I knew he was only trying to bail himself out, but I would never give him that opportunity, not after what he had done."I know already," I swiftly replied, my voice heavy with certainty as I stared down at him, who was desperately trying to save himself."No, I'm not sure you know what I'm talking about," Royce swiftly replied, determination laced in his words."Lena is not even your betrothed; she's an imposter that killed your mate and has been living with her identity all this while." Royce said, his words tumbling out in a fierce rush as he stared at me with his eyes wide open.I couldn't help the scoff that escaped my lips as soon as I heard his words. He must have thought I hadn't found out about it already.Since he had been on the run since he found out that I was alive, he didn't know that I had already found out about her identity, and since I had placed Lena on house arrest ever since that day, I
