Chapter: Chapter 225EPILOGUE For days after the gathering, Drake remained silent as he watched the kingdom rebuild itself piece by piece. He watched everyone go about their daily activities with charisma and enthusiasm, happy to be free again.But even as peace spread, one question lingered within him and it was not whether he was needed or if they had forgiven him; he was very sure of that now. But instead what kind of role he was meant to play in a world that had already suffered under the weight of kings.So when he finally spoke, it was not in a council hall nor before the crowd that still gathered outside the palace gates.It was with Aurora and Elaina beside him.“I will not take the throne,” Drake started and they didn't interrupt, letting him speak about what he truly wanted. “If I rule as a king, it will feel like history repeating itself like thrones are the only answer to chaos and I do not want that. But I want to stand for this kingdom, not above it or over it…. For it.” Drake continued,

Chapter: Chapter 224One week passed after Vaerik's death and the kingdom finally began to breathe again. The people were still in shock that it was really over. They had lived too long in fear that the lack of it felt unnatural but it was real.Vaerik was really gone and Drake was back.Across Skyrend Citadel and other parts of the dragon realm, the name of the true king spread like a healing fire. People rejoiced endlessly, they gathered in streets in groups to extend their voices toward the palace in gratitude and disbelief.It was seven days after the war and everyone was eager to see their saviour again but Drake remained in hiding, he was purposefully avoiding seeing the people. They gathered daily outside the palace gates only to return to their homes disappointed. Drake stayed within the inner halls of the palace, answering through messengers, giving vague responses, and stepping away whenever the topic of rulership was brought up.He did not feel like a king, not after everything that had been

Chapter: Chapter 223Drake hit the ground hard trying to dodge the fire, his body slid across the floor before coming to a stop. His breathing was uneven, he couldn't dodge it and the fire had struck him in the same spot again.Where Vaerik’s dark fire had struck him, his dragon scales began to flake away completely charred this time. And the pain was unlike anything he had seen before, he felt his head was about to split into two.Elaina’s voice called out to him from her hiding, it was strained with fear and rage to see him like that, his pain ate into her too. “Drake… you need to get up! Get up and fight”She wanted to rush to his side but Vaerik’s presence kept her anchored in place.Vaerik laughed loudly in satisfaction as he took slow steps forward like a predator hunting his prey. “You thought you could taunt me and go scout free, well think again. So this is the king they had chosen, the great protector of dragons… the one they could wail for at his funeral… pathetic!,” he said mockingly.Drake f

Chapter: Chapter 222The moment the signal was given to go, the sky was littered with warrior dragons.The army surged forward in formation as they flew straight to the Skyrend Citadel. Vaerik's men had already been notified and the war alarm sounded while they waited to receive the guests. Elaina held tight to Drake’s back, she was calm despite the chaos about to begin. Behind them, Aurora rode one of the warrior dragons, she looked sharp and focused as her eyes were already scanning for threats.Drake’s jaw tightened as he angled his flight higher. “Now,” he signaled sharply and the army answered.A group of dragons broke formation and dived toward the outer defenses of Skyrend Citadel. Then followed another group and another at different points of the capital just like they planned.Soon it was the last group with Drake, Elaina and Aurora and they flew swiftly to the heart of the capital where the throne Aerie was and Vaerik's castle. On getting there the group and Aurora began fighting the guards th

Chapter: Chapter 221“I am with child.”Instantly, every trace of rage that had been coiled inside Drake dissolved like smoke in open air. The tension in his shoulders loosened and the fire in his chest went quiet. He stood stood there and stared at her for a while, his brain finding it hard to process a reaction.Elaina watched him nervously as he reaction didn't exactly give anything to work with, ”Drake, are you alright? You don't look…”She could finish her words because Drake pulled her in for a hug instantaneous. “Oh Elaina… you have just made me the happiest man in the world” he blurted out with a vulnerable and genuine tone that made her heart flutter and her knees feel weak. She smiled widely and hugged him back and they stayed in that position bursting with joy. Drake felt so giddy, her announcement echoed in his head so much that he didn't realise that he had tightened his hug with her. Elaina let out a small sound of protest, and he immediately loosened his grip, pulling back just enough to

Chapter: Chapter 220The sky trembled and shook under the weight of wings. Drake flew at the front and behind him was a fearsome army that consisted of the red dragons from the Cradle of Flames, wyverns of the sky, and the forest drakes.Their force alone had people raise their heads at their numbers. Elaina sat firmly against Drake’s back, ready for the battle ahead with strong hope and determination. They all mirrored her feelings as well, the only option was coming out victorious.They decided that their camp ground was going to be the cradle of flames so a raven had already been sent for Aurora and Ryker to head there as well.Drake descended slowly on the familiar ruins, the damage was still there but the villagers had managed to clean up nicely so they had enough space to set their camp.The army flew down as well and they moved around smartly to set up tents or other basic amenities. Before Elaina could even steady herself fully, she saw her mother standing at the edge of the camp, her eyes search

Three Alpha brothers and their virgin pet
“Strip and kneel down, Teresa”
“You should know better than to try and escape us, Teresa. We own you, you belong to us and we will do with you as we please”
“This isn't a normal mate bond. When we are hurt, she's hurt and when she's hurt, we are hurt…So that means, if she dies, we die and if we die, she dies”
In the Black Crest pack, Omegas were sold as slaves and breeders. Teresa Finch was disowned by her mother because she was an Omega, her mother had just become the new wife of the Old Alpha Brock and didn't want him to find out that she had a weak daughter. This led to Teresa being put out for auction where she met her three mates.
Keller, Bennett and Lynch, the domineering trio. They were the three sons of Old alpha Brock and known for their ruthless and rebellious behavior. They were selfish and nonchalant, taking pleasure in oppressing the weak. And Teresa just so happens to be their perfect target.
Angry that their mate was nothing more than a weak omega, they decided to make her their plaything. But how long does this go on for when one of them suddenly went missing, one turned partially rogue and the third lost his wolf? Teresa in the midst of all these strange occurrences was the only one who could find out the truth and fix them… especially when her life was on the line too.

Chapter: Chapter 147Kaela “I can assure you that your mother is nowhere near, Kaela,” Lynch's muffled voice came from the door. “You have to trust me.” I was standing now, still contemplating whether this was a trick by Lynch and my mother to get me to open the door. But he had been there for too long and assured me that it was him. “I just want to talk,” Lynch added. I moved. It was either Lynch was being sincere, or they were really good at the game they were playing, and there was only one way to find out. I moved another step. If I realized that all of them were there, I’d run. I crossed the room and pulled the door open. Lynch stood on the other side, hand folded to land another knock. There was no one with him. I abandoned the door and returned to my bed. He slipped in, closed the door quietly, and crashed on my couch. An uncomfortable silence took over the room, stretching. I picked up my tablet and turned on the backlight. “I wasn’t happy with my mother, either, growing up,” Lynch broke

Chapter: Chapter 146Kaela As the car cruised to a stop before the fleet of cars in the garage, I pulled the door open, pushing it wider and jumping out. “Kaela?” Mom called, but I ignored her. “Kaela!” she yelled my name. I kept walking without turning. Inside the sitting room, my fathers were all waiting. Keller walked towards me, worry written over his face. “Sweetheart,” he called. “Are you okay?” I stopped when he approached. He squatted, cradling my chin. “We were looking all over for you.” I knew dad cared, but I was sure he had other things that preoccupied his time. Sometimes, I think he loves the pack more than me. I heard echoing footsteps behind me, and then a familiar voice. Mom “Kaela, I said I’m sorry,” Mom said. I refused to turn around. “What’s going on?” Dad glanced above my shoulder. “I… I kind of misjudged the situation,” mother replied. I suppressed the urge to scoff. “Baby, you’ve got to forgive your mom, you know that, right?” Dad asked. I pulled away from his

Chapter: Chapter 145TeresaTo say that Kaela’s excitement didn’t scare me was an understatement. She was unusually excited, and I’ve never seen her so excited for school before. I thought it was suspicious, but a part of me brushed it off as the effect of a mother-daughter bonding moment. But even as I tried to put it off as that, my mind told me that something was definitely off about it. I finally found a way to convince myself that the mother-daughter bonding moment I’d started working on months ago, after I stopped Clara from fixing her up and doing the job myself.But by late afternoon, when Mark called me and told me that Kaela was nowhere to be found, that argument could no longer hold water.I recalled the way Kaela’s eyes twinkled with mischief when I dropped her off, as she giggled and walked off. Everything now made sense. It was no mother-daughter bonding bullshit.Kaela was up to her mischief again.I stumbled through my office door, careful not to break the crystal glass doors and wall

I looked this way and that way, distress threatening to get the better of me, before I added. “Look, I don’t know what you want, Flynn, but you have to get back to school.” “Or what?” He huffed. I blinked. Was he really going to walk with me? No, this isn’t happening. I have to find a way to make him go back. I blurted out the first logical reason that got into my head. “You’ll land us both in trouble,” I cried. “Trouble?” He snorted. “If you didn’t want trouble, you shouldn’t have left the school in the first place.” “Well, I left,” I snapped. “Now, the school should be big enough to accommodate you and your… goons.” I turned around and stormed off. A pair of feet followed me. I walked on, expecting the approaching feet to retreat or get closer and fight me, but he didn’t do any of that. Instead, he keeps w

When she arrived, I’d was already in my school uniform, struggling to wear my socks. The door flipped open, and Mom poked her head in. I glanced at her briefly.“Good morning, Mom,” I said.She joined me with a reply, and in a moment, she was already helping me with my socks.“You were up early today, hmm?”“Yes, mom,” I replied. “I’m just excited to go to school.”Mom didn’t reply, and I felt that she was concerned. I wondered if it was because of the other day when I ran off.I knew mom cared, but curiosity was dealing with me. I wanted to find out more about the isolated people. I wanted to see magic. I thought magic was the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen, and I was excited to explore more of it.“Is there a problem, Mom?” I stopped and held her hand.She smiled.

Chapter: chapter 142Teresa I flipped my eyes open, taking in my room. The alarm on my bedside table rang incesantly on the bedside table, and I slapped it to keep it quiet. It obeyed, and I was going to pull the covers around me tighter, and then I remembered Kaela. With a lot of effort, I got out of bed and headed to Kaela’s room. If she were asleep, I’d watch her sleep until she woke up. But if not, I’d want to have some time alone with her. Getting busy with the pack stripped me of that time with her, and when Clara took over, it was the beginning of sorrows. Apparently, the girl wanted time with her mother, not some chief of the maidens of the entire pack. When I pushed her door open, she was still asleep. I slipped in and closed the door. When I turned from the door to her bed, her eyes were open, and she was looking at me. As I approached her bed, she sat up, rubbing her eyes. “Good morning, Mom,” she mumbled. I joined her, sitting on her bed. “How are you holding up, sweetheart?” “I…

From now on, you are going to be with me and in case you haven't noticed, I am madly in love with you, Elle. Richard is your past now and I am your future. So what do you say, will you give me a chance to be your husband?”
Was I crazy to accept his proposal when I just signed divorce papers yesterday? Maybe I was or maybe his eyes were just too intoxicating to say no to.
*
Elle Decker was a dedicated wife who would do anything for her husband, Richard, even if it meant sleeping with his manager to get his signature on her husband's promotion document.

Chapter: Chapter 110 ELLE EPILOGUE Eight months later The house looked like it had been hit by a hurricane. There were open suitcases and half-folded clothes everywhere. Raymond kept insisting he had packed everything essential, but judging by the lone sock sticking out of the side of his duffel bag, I suspected otherwise. “We are only going for a week, not relocating to another continent,” I teased as I folded Mica’s tiny sundresses into her bag. Raymond lifted an eyebrow. “I’m just being prepared.” “For what? A family vacation or a natural disaster?” He smirked. “Both. You never know.” Mica skipped into the room with her pink backpack bouncing behind her like a tail. “Mommy! Daddy! I’m ready! I even packed my teddy and my crayons and the drawing I made for the baby so he won’t be scared in your tummy during the airplane flight.” I smiled and cupped her little chin. “That’s very thoughtful, sweetheart.” She beamed with so much that she actually looked like the sun.

Chapter: Chapter 109 ELLE FIVE YEARS LATER The hospital felt so cold I thought I was at the North Pole. I stood just outside the consultation room, the test results trembling slightly in my hand. Pregnant. Again. My breath caught as the words echoed in my mind. For a moment, joy flickered through me. A baby. A new life. Another little heartbeat growing inside me. But the joy was swallowed quickly by something else. A familiar dread crept up my spine and wrapped tight around my chest. I thought I had healed. I thought time had stitched every broken piece. But holding that paper made something inside me tremble. What if something happened again? What if danger found its way back into our lives? By the time I reached the parking lot, my hands were cold. What if I could not protect this baby? What if my past repeats itself? What if peace was never meant for someone like me? Even though Evans was gone. Melody was gone. The threats were gone. I still wasn't at peace. I guess fear had a way of

Chapter: Chapter 108 ELLE A year passed before I even realized it. A year since the trial. A year since the screaming, the sentencing, the nightmares. A year since the deaths of Evans and Melody. A year since I held Raymond’s hand in that cold courtroom and told myself we would survive. And somehow… we did. Today was proof of that survival, because it was my daughter’s first birthday. Raymond and I decided to make it special, celebrating it in the best way possible. Balloons floated along the ceiling like little planets in the sky. It was a mix of different shades of pink, gold, and soft lavender. The living room looked like we were celebrating a princess from a Royal family. We might not be royals, but Mira—my baby, my little miracle—was definitely a princess. We had made sure to invite all our loved ones. We wanted to share the moment with them. Someone turned on music and the speakers hummed with joyful melodies. The smell of grilled food mingled with vanilla frosting and the sugary scent o

Chapter: Chapter 107 ELLE The day Raymond opened his eyes felt unreal, almost dreamlike. I refused to leave him. I sat beside him, brushing my fingers over his hand every few minutes just to reassure myself that the life in him was real and not another cruel trick of hope. So when the door opened and two officers stepped in, their footsteps sharp and their expressions solemn, the fragile peace inside the room trembled. A male officer and a female officer stood in the doorway, both wearing that heavy, unreadable look that usually came before news no one wanted to hear. The female officer cleared her throat. “Mr. and Mrs. Orlando?” My heart tightened again. Fear was a habit my body could not unlearn overnight. “Yes,” I said quietly for both of us. I moved closer to Raymond, as if proximity alone could shield us from whatever came next. The officer nodded. “We came with an update regarding the suspects. Luckily, Melody Nelson and Evans Decker were both apprehended yesterday. They sustained a few inj

Chapter: Chapter 106 ELLE The officer burst out of the water, dragging Raymond with him. Raymond’s body was limp, soaked, and lifeless. Water streamed from his clothes, his hair, and his mouth. His skin was pale—too pale. His lips were tinged blue. They hauled him onto the ground. “BEGIN CPR!” an officer ordered immediately. “GO!” They started compressions on him—hard, fast, and forceful. There was nothing. "Again!" The offer yelled. Still, there was nothing. “Where’s the ambulance?!” “Two minutes out!” “Shit! Well, don't stop! Keep going!” They kept pushing. Breath. Compression. Breath. Compression. But Raymond didn’t move. His chest stayed still. His pulse didn’t return. One officer paused just long enough to exchange a grim, devastating look with another. “We’re losing him. Load him up, now!” They lifted him onto a stretcher. I screamed his name until my throat collapsed. The baby was rushed toward another ambulance. Officers swarmed around me, cutting the ropes from my wrists. B

It ripped through the dead, hollow water park like something dying in the dark. “RAYMOND!” I screamed his name again and again, until my voice broke so painfully it felt like something inside me snapped. But nothing I did… nothing I said… brought him back up. The water swallowed him whole. And his struggling… stopped. My heart clawed at my ribcage. “No, no, no, no…” Tears blurred everything. My vision shook. “Raymond, please… please move… please come up… please breathe…” I dragged my body forward even though the ropes cut deeper into my wrists, tearing skin. I didn’t care. I would have ripped my own arms off if it meant reaching him. But the world didn’t move. The water didn’t move. Raymond didn’t move. I felt something inside me collapse. Something so heavy I couldn’t breathe. Melody laughed. Actually laughed. A sharp, gleeful, insan

Elvis was able to get the hang of it in no time and I could now switch from spending time with my parents to spending time with Elvis.Everything was falling in place."Tell me again.

My voice was loud enough and it was sharper than anything in this cursed pack.He stood across from me, boiling with silent rage.“Your leadership is a joke,” I continued. “And your plans? They are so pathetic, childish and laughable. How did you become Alpha in the first place?”I heard a weak groan behind me, and when I turned slightly, my eyes met Elvis.My God!

My knees were raw from kneeling on the cold stone.My hands were bound behind my back and my wrists bruised with blood trickling down.My mouth was so dry and my lips were torn but I didn’t speak.Because if I did, Brianna would suffer and Ivy…I could not let them touch her again.
