Adam I was shocked at my father's question, and I could not answer for a while. Desiree was right. My father would not let the moons go because he needed the numbers. He wanted to be served, and he wanted to be king. "It is best you let them go," I told my father, and then he looked at me. "Whose side are you on, Adam? If I let the Moons go, who will serve us? Your bitch might leave too," he said, and I smiled. "You did say you will behead her if she doesn't get pregnant. Sending her away would be better." I pointed out, and he got angry. "Never! I cannot allow a moon alpha to roam freely. We have preserved these lands with science to the best of our ability. I cannot allow them to take over our hard work." He said and went to sit on his chair. He was really mad. "May I speak freely, father?" I asked him, and he nodded. "The land was in best condition when their Alpha was running it. They did not need our help or our science. Attacking them and killing their Alpha is why their l
Adam I roamed through the halls and cells looking for Desiree, but I couldn't find her. I wondered where my father had her placed, and I began to panic. The fear in my heart was almost unbearable. I had never been this afraid before. I searched every nook and cranny in the moon dungeon but couldn't find her. It was midnight now, so I returned to my father's chamber. I entered unannounced, and I hadn't hated him as much as I did at that moment. My entrance must have alerted him because he woke up. "Father, please let her go," I pleaded with my father. He was still trying to wake up his senses, so he did not respond until seconds later. "Can't you see I am trying to sleep, Adam?" he said to me. "Please, father, let her go. I am begging you," I pleaded with him, and he shook his head. "I thought you were off to rescue her?" he asked, and I looked away because he was taunting me. "We both know she is not in this building; I can't feel her. I can't link with her. I have checked every
Adam. My father and I returned to his room together, and he offered me a drink. Something he hadn't done in over two years because I was counting. This whole king thing had gotten into his head so much, that he had forgotten how to be a father and an Alpha. From his behaviour, I realised that my guess was correct and he was madly in love with Margret. Unfortunately for him, he couldn't have her because of his laws and the things he had done to make sure his laws were upheld. It was sickening. The woman didn't love him though, but they seemed like second-chance mates to each other. The moon goddess knew how to put the joke on her children, especially those that chose to tow a dangerous line like my father. He offered me a seat and took a sip of his drink. "I will have her released, just don't hurt Maggie," he said with red, teary eyes. "You are unbelievable, father," I said, and he pinched the bridge of his nose and bowed his head in shame. "How did you know?" he finally asked me.
Desiree I couldn't believe everything that had happened to me. One minute I was about to go to bed, and the next minute, enforcers barged into my apartment and arrested me. I thought they would take me to the dungeon, but they didn't. They took me to somewhere that looked like a secret prison outside the packhouse. I honestly wanted to shift and teach them a lesson, but Ashria had warned me about it. She claimed it was a necessary event. I honestly wanted to do a lot of things, but she insisted we stand down, and I had no choice but to obey. Honestly, it sucked. Everyone had a newborn wolf, but I had to be stuck with an ancient soul that seemed more like a parent than a part of me. It sucked being controlled by your wolf, but she was yet to lead me astray, and she had proven her wisdom and strength to me. After a few hours, they returned me to my apartment with the utmost care, and I realised there wasn't any need to fight, but I was afraid. Twice someone had barged into my apartmen
Desiree The packhouse was busy, and they were preparing for something. Tim and I were about to make our way to the royal quarters when Lola and her friend accosted us. Nickson was also there, but he wasn't looking at me with hostility, if anything, he had respect for me, and I wondered where it was coming from. "Hello, Moon Bitch!" Lola said to me, and people around gasped. I smiled at her because I knew she was hurting. "You haven't won yet. You are just a piece of cunt that Adam is having fun with in the meantime. Once he is done with you, he would throw you away like the piece of trash that you are and settle for me because I am the best he can get amongst the bloods," she said with a smile, and I started to think Lola might be suffering from some mental illness of some sort. "Well, good for you," I said with a smile. Ashria had taught me, and I had learned fast. I tried to move away, but she obstructed my way and pushed me. "Hey!" Nickson yelled at her, and her eyes widened wi
Desiree Adam moved closer, thinking it was reflexes, but I moved again and got up so he could see me. I wanted to tease him, get him all worked up and then turn him down. Make him beg for it. I looked at his shorts, and There the erection was staring at me. "Desiree..." he said, groaning, and I maintained a straight face. I wanted to keep him guessing. "What am I to you, Adam?" I asked him, and he bowed his head. I could feel his frustration and fatigue. "You are my mate," he replied. "I feel more like a mistress and a breeder like everyone says," I lied, just to get to him. He looked up at me with concern in his eyes. He also looked hurt and confused. I bet he was wondering where all of it was coming from. "Who hurt you today?" he asked, ready to deal with whoever it was. I could tell him it was Lola and her mother, but they had entertained me instead. Although I did not appreciate the slap and I wished I could retaliate. I knew dragging the matter would not end well for me beca
Desiree I woke up sore in the morning. Adam had a smirk on his face, which indicated he knew exactly what he did. The instant I entered the shower, he followed me and grabbed me. "How are you doing this morning, Desiree?" He asked, and I gave him a half-smile because I knew he was taunting me. He pulled me to his chest and kissed the top of my head. "I loved the fact you made me beg for it," he said and held me tighter. "Try to hold out a little longer next time," he said, and I playfully pushed him away, and we both began to laugh. We made love and showered together in the bathroom. I am sure the bloods that brought the breakfast heard us, but I didn't care. In fact, I hoped Lola's spies would relay the news to her. We ate our breakfast in a hurry, and they brought Adam's clothes for the party. Nothing was brought for me, so I figured I wasn't invited. I never felt horrible about my relationship with Adam until that moment. I didn't want to put him on the spot, so I did not bother
Adam We were merry all afternoon into the evening. Moons joined us, and Bloods were quick to mingle with them. The only people who were stuck up were the people in my father's generation. No one cared because they were a dying breed anyway. I learned that the ash in the moon territory had miraculously cleared overnight. I had asked them to keep the information from my father so that the moons wouldn't be asked to leave their homes. I was not going to keep it from him for long, just long enough for him to hand over the authority to me and officially step down, then I could act on the information. Desiree looked stunning in the coral blue dress I had selected for her. I knew she thought she wasn't invited, and I wanted to surprise her by allowing her to think like that. When they arrived, the sight of her took my breath away. She looked amazing. I noticed a lot of people drooling at her, and I was proud. My father even commended me and told me that I had an eye for beauty, but I knew d
