INICIAR SESIÓNChapter Forty-Seven
Thank you, Aveline.Aveline MeadowsIt felt like my chest was going to explode from what just happened. I wanted to run and hide from this new problem I had created for myself, but the look on the Alpha's face told me he wasn't aware of what he was doing.It was a good thing that it was just a squirrel that made the noises in the bush, if not, my days in the estate and this pack was numbered."Alpha... You need to head inside." I tooChapter Fifty-TwoLeave The Pack And The Estate.Aveline MeadowsI was cleaning Ash's study when the door burst open. The rag in my hand stilled mid-swipe across his mahogany desk as Nan rushed in, her face streaked with tears, her eyes wild with a panic I had never seen before. Her chest heaved with ragged breaths, and her hands trembled at her sides."Aveline!" she cried, her voice cracking on the second syllable. "Come quickly! It's Lumi!"My heart stopped. The rag slipped from my fingers and hit the floor with a soft thud. I didn't even hear it before I was already moving, my legs carrying me toward the door before my mind had fully processed her words."What happened?" I demanded at once, wondering what had happened and if she was hurt. "Where is she? Nan, tell me what happened!"But Nan was already running, and I was chasing after her, my blood pounding in my ears. Behind me, I heard the scrape of a chair and heavy footsteps
Chapter Fifty-OneGet PregnantAngel MeadowsI began losing my mind when I found out that different Alphas had started trooping in to pick up their forms for the competitions. The whole estate whispered anytime I passed, wondering if I had anything to do with the Alpha's choice of not being part of the competition, while some could be wondering why we hadn't done the coronation for these past three years."Luna?" I didn't hear the person the first time until they tapped me gently, and I turned to find Sera by my side with a concerned expression on her face. "I've been calling you for a long while now, but your mind seems so far away... Is there something bothering you? Is it about the competition?""It's nothing, Sera." I said quietly as I squeezed her hands on my shoulder. Sera was one of my closest maids, but the person who was the closest, Greer, had been fired after working here for more than a decade. It was something we both mourned toge
Chapter FiftyOur First Kiss.Alpha Ash Caden"Bring Angel to me," I said to the guard at the door, whoescorted Draven up here, after a few minutes of reeling in the information. "Immediately."He nodded and left immediately. I moved to the window, staring out at the garden below. Jordan stood silently beside me, "You still haven't explained to me why she was in your bed last night. Did you get sleep together?""Jordan..." I warned, but thinking back to last night and the way she was soft against me, breathing slowly as I watched her sleep. I had pretended to wake up after her, when all I had been doing for at least one hour was state at her and wonder why I was acting strange when it came to her. "Can you help me do something? Can you trace her origins and tell me who she is and where she comes from?"But even with that information, it still wouldn't prove to me that she was the woman I've been looking for. And if she was, there's n
Chapter Forty-NineGoodluck In The CompetitionsAlpha Ash Caden"Alpha... We have a situation at hand." Jordan's voice broke through my train of thoughts, and when I looked up, he has a distracted gaze on his face, the same way I had been distracted all morning. Thinking about last night and what the fuck I was actually doing."What's the matter?" I rubbed my temples when he came in and sat opposite me. "Do we have somewhere to be today?" I frowned as I shuffled through my papers and schedule for the day."Oh, we do have a lot of places to go today." He said. "It's not like you're suspended from carrying out kingly duties even as the coronation is ongoing." He chuckled dryly. "But that's not the reason I'm here. There's an issue with the Alphas who have shown interest in the competition, and they are blaming you for what is happening to them."It took a while before my brain caught what he was saying. "Wait, what? What did I do? They
Chapter Forty-EightFated MateAngel Meadows"You're a fool if you stay with him." My mother's voice was so sharp that it stung as I sat across from her, my hands folded in my lap, my eyes still red from the tears I had shed earlier."He won't fight for the crown," I said quietly. "He told me he would support a divorce. He said he would help me if I wanted to leave.""Then leave." My mother leaned forward, her blue eyes blazing hotly and angrily at how unambitious I was being. "What are you waiting for? The council has thrown the throne open and there are Alphas arriving from every corner of the region, each one stronger and more ambitious than the last. You have a chance to align yourself with a real king, not a lovesick fool who would rather chase unexistent women than claim his birthright.""But what if..." I protested. "What if the council later changes their mind about the competition and throwing the throne open, and finally dec

You need to head inside." I took a cautious step towards him, my mouth still tingling from the warmth of his kiss. Would I say it was too cold outside or it was dangerous?I almost asked myself why I cared so much, but that was when I realized what he had kept referring to me all these while. His mate. I knew I didn't have any wolf and couldn't feel the strength of a mate bond, but... I was mated to the Alpha? That realization sent a streak of fear down my spine. Fear for what Angel would do if she found out. Or... H
