VALENTINA
The next morning I woke up with a throbbing headache in my head and a mind full of new and unfamiliar concerns.
“Hey, little wolf.” Andres kissed my forehead and I softly smiled.
“Hey…” A huge yawn cleared my tiredness.
His brows furrowed, “You don't look like you have slept well… Is it about those nightmares?” His voice dripped with concern.
The mention of a nightmare shook me inwardly. My eyes dimmed as my lips pressed tightly. “Yeah, just some fragments of—dark dreams,” I muttered the last part slowly, so slow that it was barely audible even in my ears.
He leaned forward, kissing my forehead, “How about you get some sleep now? You'll feel better.”
I didn’t decline, I was truly weary with the recent events and nodded weakly.
“Good,” he kissed my lips softly. “Then go back to sleep, I'll ask the servants to bring y

VALENTINAThe moonlight glowed in the night sky, declaring the joy of the kingdom—the joy for the ending of the darkness and the joy of their new queen.But not for me, not anymore. Not after finding the envelope hidden in Andres’s closet.I glanced at it. That seemed to softly glow in the faint moonlight. The scarlet ribbon, meticulously knotted around it, appeared to have been tied with care, deliberately, as if whoever placed it there wanted me to hesitate before opening it.I swallowed hard. My throat was dry, my heart hammering inside my chest like a trapped bird.‘Why?’ I whispered to myself, ‘Why was it in the closet? When I lost it, I wasn't residing in the Alpha Supreme's room. I still remember that I couldn't find it, and now it was in his closet…’‘That only means one thing…’‘Andres, he removed it.’ Kira whispered, she was shocked and speechless as w
VALENTINAThe day was quite occupied, as it was filled with numerous greetings from nobles and Alphas who were still present following the celebration. Andres managed most of these interactions with his sharp wit and imposing demeanour, while I remained by his side, offering smiles, answering questions, and providing reassurance to those around us… Whispers flared that I was their new queen and they greeted me the same way.It was sort of embarrassing, but Andres looked immensely proud of his work.But the true surprise came in the late afternoon…“Val!” A shrieking tone came from behind, making me turn to my wheels.“AUDREY!” I squealed in delight.My best friend rushed toward me and embraced me, her arms encircling me with such a firm grip that I momentarily felt breathless.I didn't bother though, tears stung my eyes as I hugged her back fiercely. “Goddess, I have missed you so much!” I cried out.“Me too…” She sobbed, then broke the hug, watching me with her glinting eyes. A small
VALENTINA“Andres… wake up,” I whispered, nudging his muscled shoulder softly.The bright rays of the sun came through the curtains, subtly brightening the entire room, and my man, enhancing his flawless features to the extent of divinity.My man—the one tasted so sweet and full of dreams.“Baby…” I whined again softly.“Mhm,” this time he groaned, however, instead of waking up, his arm wrapped tightly around my waist and pulled me closer.He rolled us, pinning me within his huge and strong build as he hid his face on my neck. “Five more minutes...” His hoarse morning voice sends vibrations directly to my core.“You said the same thing an hour ago.” I rolled my eyes, whining softly, though I couldn’t stop the smile tugging at my lips.“Did I?” His voice was husky, teasing, and when he finally cracked his golden eyes open, I found myself melting again.Goddess, how could one man make me forget everything with just one look? And how on earth did I end up in this man's arms? Still, I fee
VALENTINA“It's stupid!” Andres groaned out as he walked beside me. His voice was low, edged with a restraint which I could feel clearly.I didn’t say anything.“Why does that moron have to trespass on my territory?” He fumed again. His hand tightened around mine as we walked down the marble corridor leading to the meeting hall.Still, I remained quiet.“Is it even necessary?” He finally turned to me. His frustration was pulsating deeply within his veins, and as his mate, I could feel it deeply.Finally, I paused and glanced up at him. My lips twitch into a soft, assuring smile. “Considering how he tried to help me back in Simon’s fort, yes, indeed. Besides, he only wanted to see Andres. It's just a meeting.”His jaw flexed, blazing golden eyes darkening like clouds threatening rain. “It doesn’t mean he has no intention of causing harm.”"I know." And stepped closer to him, cupping his cheeks, I tiptoed and brushed my lips against his and looked him in the eyes, "I am not denying your
VALENTINA“Valentina…” Andres's voice resonated through the courtyard, calling my name with a new enthusiasm I had rarely witnessed in him.“Whoa…” Hushed voices spread in awe.“Alpha’s charming… for his Luna…” women around muttered, chuckling lightly.Well, it’s new for them as well. And even though I get jealous at times, I feel proud just by looking at the man.“Hey…” I walked toward him, breaking through the crowd.It’s a night of celebration for us. All the Alphas, those who were in alliance with us, have gathered together in the royal courtyard, celebrating the liberation. After all, the looming darkness is gone…‘Are you sure?’ A hushed tone bit within my soul, freezing me all of a sudden. Suddenly, my vision darkened with fog.‘Kira?’ I called for my wolf. She talked, didn’t she?
