Elysia's pov. The grand hall sparkled with golden lights as music played softly in the background while warriors and nobles filled the space, laughing, drinking, and dancing. I could perceive the sweet smell in the air, it smelled of wine, roasted meat and something else, something sweet but I just couldn't seem to recall the name. Everything about tonight screamed celebration, but inside, my heart beat like a drum, not because of the celebration, but because of the fact that Adrian had also invited Tyler and Alicia. Those bastards. Sarah's words rang in my head as I stood near the center of the hall, my gown flowing around my legs like water. It was deep red, hugging my body and showing my bare shoulders, I didn't need to be told how pretty I was. My hair had been twisted into curls and pinned up with silver pieces shaped like tiny stars. Sarah had specifically helped with this, even after telling her not to worry, that it was the job of the maids, she had insisted. And righ
Elysia’s POVBrushing my curious stare to the side, Adrian buried his hands into his pocket and pulled out a piece of jewelry which looked ancient while looking at me the whole time.Then he lifted it up and I could clearly see the necklace, it had an oval shaped pendant.The pendant had a structure of a wolf’s head crafted inside of it.“ This necklace will protect you, try not to take it off.” He said as he stepped close to me and moved behind me, gently sweeping my hair to the side of my shoulders to wear the necklace.The necklace was cold as it rested on my bare neck .He placed his lips at the back of my head and pressed his lips kissing my head, this sent cold shivers down my spine.“This necklace will protect you.” He said, giving a warm smile while staring at me.I wrapped my fingers around the necklace resting on my neck and I suddenly felt safe.Adrian stood still in front of me, folding his arm together .“It’s my moms’, I won’t be able to bare it if any bad thing happens
MElysia POV“King Adrain, really sorry I am late for the meeting” A man from a distance cried out.He had thick, long beards that were knotted in braids with a full white hair also, his eyes were green and he had wrinkled eyes. I figured out he must be an elder in the pack.Everyone seated at the table swiftly glanced at him. Before he could take another step, a young member from the council table ran towards him. “Elder Noah,” he called out.As he approached Elder Noah and offered his arm gently to assist Elder Noah to the table.They made their way to the council table and the young member pulled on a tucked in chair so the elder could sit.Elder Noah sat down comfortably, “I am sorry for coming late,” he cried out again.Adrian gave a slight node to assume that it was no problem, he greeted Elder Noah and the meeting progressed.I slowly paid attention to how Adrian reacted to Elder Noah. Even though he was a king, he still respected people. My lips curled into a smile, it was
Elysia's POV I walked into my room feeling so devastated I can't believe that Tyler tagged me as missing after ordering this men and his wife to get rid of me. He wanted to decieve the people pretending that he was the victim, his plan is to tell them that I ran away. He wanted to ruin my reputation.Everyone in his pack would think I betrayed him after everything when he fact he was the one at fault. I pull off my clothes walking into the bathtub, I felt the hot water around my body calming my tensed nerves. I need to calm myself down and not be blinded by rage. I need to create a perfect plan to take my vengeance. "My lady, where are you" Sarah voice cut through my thoughts. "Give me few minutes, I would be out in a moment" I said wearing my bathrobe. "My lady, tell me everything, how did the discussion between you and the king" she asked, her eyes filled with curiosity."It went well, he accepted my offer to take revenge on Alpha Tyler and Alicia only then would I be his Que
Adrian's POV "Help me take down those bastards that hurt me" she said to me. I wasn't surprised by her request I knew she was going to ask for that one way or the other and I was ready to help her in all the way I can. They shouldn't have treated her that way not only did they use her and betray her trust but they also tried to kill her. "I promise you today Elysia before the moon goddess, I will make sure to avenge all that you went through, Tyler would not go scout free after what he did" I said watching as her face lighten up. "Thank you so much king" she said with a smile. "I would be offended if you called me king again, I would prefer you call me Adrian" I said to her watching her look awkward. "I think that would be disrespectful on my path to call you by your name" she said looking down awkwardly. "That's what I want Elysia" I said making her smile a bit. "I also want to apologize for my behavior, that was very rude of me to behave like that, I hope I didn't offend y
Elysia’s POV“Marry me.” He whispered, his eyes meeting mine.My eyes widened as I frozed, my heart skipped and for a moment I forgot how to breathe.‘After I just revealed all I went through about 48 hours ago, he wants me to marry him. How does getting married to him and dealing with my enemies correlate?’,I thought.He snapped his fingers twice, bringing me back to reality. My lips parted but no words came out.“Marry me Elysia.” He repeated, as his lips curled into a smile, he tucked a strand of brown hair to the back of his ear. I frowned and pulled away from him. ‘Was he planning to use me too?’ I thought, I wanted to say yes but I didn’t want to get caught in another trap.He got up preparing to leave. “I understand this is a lot to take in , I will send a pack guard soon to protect you”.“Let me know when you think about it .” Those were his last words before slamming the door behind me.A heavy sigh escaped my lips, feeling a mix of emotions.. anger and disgust. The door c
Elysia’s POVI opened my eyes allowing the fresh breeze from the window side to brush my skin. I felt numb, shutting my eyes to reflect on all that happened in the Raven’s pack.Thoughts of how Alpha Tyler treated me came back running through my mind, “I was just a fool all along” I muttered.I held on thinking everything would get better, still I allowed him to lie to my face. I thought he loved me but it was all lies . Tears were about to set in, I squeezed my face and clenched my fist while trying to hold my tears but I couldn’t.I allowed my tears to roll down my eyes to my cheeks.I managed to sit on my bed, my legs curled up to my chest region , folding my body together and letting my tears out , crying like a baby that was stung with a needle.After letting out part of what I was feeling , I got up from my bed.On the table close to the right hand side of my bed , I sighted the empty cup from yesterday’s night and remembered the pack doctor bringing me a cup filled with herbs
Elysia's POV "Who is this?”“What was going on here?”“Have I been kidnapped or something" that were the first thoughts on my mind when I opened my eyes. I has been wondering if this was how heaven was since there was no way I survived that waterfall. "You really need to calm down" this handsome figure in front of me said trying to stop me from screaming but there was no way I'm going to stop, all I wanted tight now was to die. My heart has been broken into a thousand pieces, though I'm alive it felt like I was dead on the inside, how could I continue to live with this feeling. "Just let me die, you could have just left me in the water fall to die" I cried out running down my face. He looked confused as too what he should do but I was just really overwhelmed by my emotions. "What do you mean by this, you just woke up right now and you want to die?" He asked me in a stern tone."Yes, I want to die, I don't have tge medallion with me anymore so I'm not a threat. Just let me kill
Adrian's POV I just knew I had to save her, as soon as I saw her my wolf became really restless and this hasn't happened to me in a while now. She was the one, the person has been looking for, for many years now and now I found her but she was on the verge of death "could the moon goddess be more cruel?" I asked myself. "So how is she now?" I asked the pack doctor for the thousandth time. "She's is still unconscious alpha, she is not responding to treatment. It's as if she is holding herself back from waking up" the pack doctor replied me with a calm expression on his face. Looking at the face of this lady, she had a calm expression on her face even though it was a bit pale, her raven dark hair which was so long spread on the bed giving of her surreal beauty. "How did your life get to this?" I asked no one in particular staring at the clear space. My mind drifted off back to three days ago when I was having my crazy episode. **FLASHBACK** "It's the full moon tonight ho
