Chad's POV

Bella puts the towel away and starts brushing her hair. I could hear her heart racing. She's hiding something from me, and Hendrick knows all about it. Why can't she trust me as she trusts him? It takes her a minute to respond, but she does not look me in the eye.

"What do you mean? Hendrick killed them, of course." She responds and continues brushing her silky hair. I got up from the bed and took the brush from her. I begin combing her long hair. I notice her uneasiness, and I decide not to pressure her. She will tell me when she's ready.

"Don't ever cut your hair," I said, changing the conversation.

"It's awfully long now." She chuckled.

"I like to wrap it around my wrists when I take you from behind, Ma Petite." She turns crimson red. I open her bathrobe, exposing her perky breasts. I bite my bottom lip at the sight of her paled nipples.

"What are you doing?" She giggles.

"I wanted to see how deep your blush goes." I knelt in front of her and swirled my

    Bella's POV "I think I know where Braxten is as well. What do you know?" I ask my brother Brent. Goddess, it pains me to see him in this condition. Our father would be livid. He would have waged war against Queen Aster. "My mate overheard her aunt Camilla talking on the phone. Apparently, Camilla has a daughter in North Natbia who is in a relationship with Braxten, but he’s under a spell and doesn’t remember anything." I could see the pain and anger in his eyes—they were twins and had been inseparable since the womb. Olivia caressed his cheek as he leaned on it and closed his eyes. "They're Mates, Brent. The Alpha King of North Natbia and his sister are Camilla's children. They lived in Keladia under my own roof for a while, and I could not recognize Braxten. He always wore a mask and long sleeves to conceal his tattoos." I sighed. “Bella, you need to be careful,” Trent said, his eyes filled with concern. “That woman, Camilla, claims her descendants will reign over Balzaree

    Chad's POV The noise of footsteps above was loud. The individuals walking around were enforcers of Queen Aster. They asked Tori a few questions, and she told them she had come with one of the invited Alpha's entourages. They seemed convinced and then moved on to the next room. I felt useless hiding in this place, but I wanted to avoid drawing attention to myself. I needed to remain inconspicuous until I could find Bella and take her fucking away from here. The door swung open, and I climbed outside, avoiding the bed levitating above me. The women appeared ashen-faced but otherwise unharmed. Shit. I didn't even consider their safety; I only cared that my plans did not blow up. "How often do these raids happen?” I asked Zoria, running my fingers through my hair as I paced the room. “There’s no way to tell. Typically, they occur a few times a year, but with all the foreigners entering the country, they will likely happen more frequently,” Zoria replied. I sighed with frustration

    Bella's POV My heart races, anticipating seeing my brother again. Olivia promised I would finally see him that night. These past few days have been unbearable, making it impossible for me to sneak away and visit him. Olivia sees him daily and updates me about how he’s doing. He is just as eager to see me as I am to see him. He is aware of Dad's death and Braxten's disappearance. “To bed so early?” Zelia's mocking tone came from behind me. I stopped and turned to look at her with a haughty look. "You might be the future queen but have been treated like a prisoner." She snickered I have learned since I got here that Zelia wears many masks according to whom she’s giving a performance. "I don't let any title define me, Zelia. On the contrary, you seem to yearn for a title never meant to be yours," I remark with a smirk. Her eyes blaze with fury. "And why should the queen title go to you? A half-breed, an abomination!" She seethed. I slapped her across the face, and she threw

    Chad's POV I have Abelina's invitation, but I would have a better chance of talking to Bella if I snuck into the place. Zoria is watching me, assessing my intentions. I would sneak inside that castle right now if it were possible to collect what's mine and leave this wretched place behind, finally free of Tori as well. "Of course, I have an invitation, but I like the thrill," I reply, moving my arm away from Tori. I swear I'll throw her in the dungeon. "Whatever, handsome, if the pay is good..." She shrugs, biting her pen coquettishly. "I'll talk to my cousin today." "I'm not painted here, you slut!" Tori growls. "Tori, we're discussing business here!" I hissed. She crosses her arms, pouting. Goddess, I will end up wringing this she-wolf's neck. ~~~~~ I walked into the room I had rented for the night. I will leave the bed for Tori and take the sofa, which is spacious enough. Tori was still sulking after I had lectured her. I don't give a fucking care. Zoria and her cousi

    Chad's POV Dane enters the tavern with a scowl on his face. I know what he wants; he wants me back at the Palace running things. I can do the same thing from here. Back at the palace, everything reminds me of her. Cobalt wants blood, and only alcohol mixed with wolfsbane keeps him under control. I tightened my grip on the glass, and it shattered, cutting my hand. I watch with a sense of boredom, the blood dripping on the table. I envisioned a picture in my mind of the witch and Hudson's blood coating my fingers as I split their chests open, tearing off their beating hearts. Fucking beautiful! It almost made me smile. "Chad, you can't keep this up. You have been on a killing spree, hunting the remaining North Natbians in the city. The news is spreading like wildfire. People are saying you’re acting like a possessed beast." I slam my fist on the table with a snarl. "Well, they're not fucking wrong! That's what I am, a fucking beast, and I am ready to kill every single fucking o

    Bella's POV I refuse to believe that Chad died. In my heart, I knew he couldn’t be gone; we are mates, and I’ve marked him. I can still feel our connection. I only wish I could have confirmation to dissipate this dread from curling inside my stomach. To top it all, I have to pretend to be oblivious in front of the culprits behind everything that is wrong with my life right now. I can’t trust anyone, especially not Camilla. Cousin Zelia doesn't seem to like me either. Well, the feeling is mutual. "We have not received confirmation, Princess. The wedding footage has been removed from all media platforms, and everything regarding Lycan is being kept strictly confidential." Camilla provides her fake explanation. I close my eyes, inhaling deeply before I end up succumbing to the urge to tear her apart. "I want to finish eating in my room," I said. Without waiting for a response, I got up and walked out. I could hear my grandmother barking orders behind me, and before I even closed

    The pain is agonizing. It burns in my chest, travels through my insides, and suffocates me until I can barely breathe. This feeling is brutal, gut-wrenching; it's torture—she's gone. My mate is gone, and I'm left behind, unable to do anything about it. I pace back and forth in the hospital's private suite. Dane looks at me with worry in his eyes. "Chad, you need to follow Grace's orders. You're alive by a miracle. If she hadn't been creating the cure for Killtrax, you would be a goner by now. You were basically her guinea pig." He has been trying to reason with me since I woke up. The news of what happened spread like wildfire. Thankfully, any video footage of the event has been erased. "I will not rest until she's back with me!" I snarl. "What if she doesn't want to come back? According to you, she believes you are responsible for the death of her pup." Dane asks with concern and exasperation. "No, that wasn't my Bella. She wouldn't..." I trail off as Dane hits the wall wit

    Bella's POV After I showered an hour later, the maids, whom I now knew as Alyssa and Lana, helped me into a breathtaking Thalia dress. The metallic color added to its beauty, but Chad consumed my thoughts. I let them do my hair and makeup, feeling like a mannequin. They hardly spoke to me, only asking for my opinion on my preferred color palette or high heels. The walk-in closet was filled with luxurious items from all the haute couture brands, including mine. "Is this to your liking, Your Highness?" Alyssa asked. I nodded, not really paying attention to her. When I stood up, I gazed into the mirror. It was me, but somehow, I looked so different. My hair fell in delicate waves all the way to my waist, and a small tiara adorned my head. The high heels accentuated the shape of my calves, and my skin shimmered, making me glow even more. The sultry makeup gave me a vibrant and lively appearance, even though I felt dead inside. "Are you ready to go now, Princess Bella?" Lana asked.

    Bella's POV Balzaree Everything is dark. I don’t know how long I’ve been unconscious. My body isn’t responding, but I can hear everything around me. What did Camilla do to me? And what did I do to Chad? My stomach plummeted as I remembered what I had done. Oh Goddess, Chad! Gut-wrenching pain consumes me. What have I done!? I want to run to him, but my body won’t obey. A cold hand brushes the hair off my face. No, stop it. Only Chad is allowed to do that. “She’s a Goldenthorn through and through. A spitting image of her mother,” a woman remarks with a chuckle. “Good job, Camilla,” the lady praises Camilla, sounding joyful. “At your humble service, Queen Aster,” Camilla replies, her voice dripping with pride for receiving the praise of her queen, my grandmother. Fuck! Am I in Balzaree? It hits me then. Camilla brought me here. That cunning bitch. Why did I trust her? Why did I fall for someone's lies again? I'm so stupid!! “Why hasn’t she woken up yet? Are you sure that what y
