Laura's povI knew that I couldn't stand there and continue staring at my Dad else it was going to turn into a crying competition, so I walked over to him and wrapped my arms around him.“Laura! I never thought that I would ever get to see you again”“Why would you say that?”“Isn't that obvious, I am an old man and don't have much time left, I kept wondering how long it was going to take before you come back to your senses”He expressed, but I grunted and slowly stepped away from him. I sat on the couch, avoiding his glance. Here he was talking about coming back to my senses and now I was starting to wonder how he was going to feel.I know he could already tell from my expression that if there was anyone who could read me, it was him. He walked past me and headed to the wine cellar.Being the strongest Alpha in the whole south, that did not stop Alpha Garrick from doing some of the things himself.It was easy for him to ask the maids to serve us the drink, but he knew how mild I like
Laura's pov:I was halfway away from the Blood Moon Pack, driving at a normal speed, when I noticed a black sedan behind me. At first, I had ignored it, continued singing along until I got to the gas station, where I stopped to get some gas and noticed the black sedan parked at the other side of the road.I stared briefly at the car from the side rear and it was obvious to me that he had followed me all the way down here.Once I was done getting enough gas to take me to the southern border, I hopped back inside and continued, but this time, I had stepped on the gas, driving at a very high speed, and I noticed they did the same, following right behind me. I swivel through the other route even though that wasn't where I was supposed to take, but I needed to find out who was there and most especially sort out as quickly as possible.But I couldn't see any trace of them any longer, it felt like they had just vanished, and just as I took a deep breath and was finally relaxing, thinking th
Author's pov.As Keira watched the car drive out of there, she clenched her fist so hard, the color on her skin was slowly draining away in rage. She has always been in charge of this palace, and even though she was not yet in a relationship with the king, it always felt that way to her, given that everyone always obeyed and respected her, as they all thought that she was a way to get close to the king. But now, there was someone closer to the king; the king's affection towards her can be seen, and not to mention, the respect they all have for her is clearly fading away as they shift sides. “Do you feel threatened by her?” She had been so engrossed in her thoughts that she did not realize someone had been standing behind her until he spoke out and she slowly turned around, trying to maintain a calm expression.“Harry, what are you doing here?”“Obviously watching someone else take your place”“My place? How could you say that? I am nothing in front of her but just a maid,” she expr
Laura's pov I could not tell how long I slept, but when I was woken by a loud banging at the door. My gaze trailed down to the window as I realized that the sun was slowly fading away. “Come in!” I muttered fully conscious of his scent and the fact that it was Caspian at the door. He swung the door open and slowly walked in. A blank expression on his face, and even as I tried to listen to his heartbeat, it was steady.“How are you feeling?” He calmly asked and that was when I realized that I was feeling much better, better than I ever felt since Dante came back with his Mate. “I am good, thank you,” I muttered, and he stood right next to my bedside.“Listen, Laura, I know you are very mad at me and might never forgive me. I don't blame you for any of it. That day when you walked to my office, I only agreed to your deal because I thought you remembered me and what had transpired between the two of us.”He paused, his gaze still pinned on me while he went ahead to sit next to me. “I
Laura's pov As soon as the Caspian's wolf met with my skin, I felt my head begin to spin with a series of memories, and I could recognize the fact that they were my memories, but what happened to them, and why couldn't I recall all of this, all this while.The more his teeth dug deeply into my skin, the more flashbacks I was getting. Coming to the blood moon pack to strike a deal with the Lycan king was not the first time that I was meeting with Caspian.He was my mate, the same one I had failed to reject after I ran away from you, the same man who murdered my mother, he was that man I hated more than I hate Dante, with all of my blood and my strength.And just as I opened my eyes again, he was the first person that I set my eyes on. I felt my wolf snarling, clawing at the edges of my mind, begging to take over. The sight of him alone twisted my gut into knots.Why was he here again after all the pain he had caused me, he should be staying away from me because all I see when I look a
Caspian's pov“Ahhhhhhh!!!’” Laura let out a deep scream as soon as Orion clasped the metal. The mark looks like a blackened bone wrapped in decaying flesh, fused deep into her skin. As Orion pulled it out, the dark materials crumbled to ashes and vanished.And just then, I stepped away from her, and Clara rushed forward, trying to stitch the wounds. “How is she doing?” My heart could not stop racing no matter how much I tried to stop it. I had seen several combats, but this was nothing like I had ever witnessed, and I couldn't recount how many times it felt to me like I had lost her.“She has lost a lot of blood” was the only thing Clara said to me before she commenced treatment, her hands shuffling through the box and just a glance from her to her assistant, she knew exactly what to do.Her assistant rushed over to my side, her head lowered as she looked confused.“Your majesty, should I go ahead and draw your blood?”“Nia! You don't need permission from him, just go ahead and draw
