Sabrina and Elijah had utterly different lives. She was treated as a fragile flower, whereas he burned like coal to become unbreakable. People looked up at her with hope and joy, he was used to seeing pity in people's eyes. She knew she was born to be a queen and he was nothing more than just an omega. Her wolf was a blessing, his wolf was just a far-fetched dream. And yet, Sabrina was ready to sacrifice every privilege, every title for him. Sabrina stayed quiet. She didn't want to put any pressure on him. She wanted him to know she was here to listen to him but won't force him into revealing his secrets to her. That was another thing she badly wanted to become a part of all his mysteries and secrets. Elijah swallowed back his hesitation with great difficulty. Sabrina could see how difficult was it for him to open up. Since childhood, he was trained to be a machine made to kill. He had lost his emotions in the process. Elijah hadn't even told her much yet and her heart ha
The morning arrived too soon to put an end to their dream-like night. Elijah, for once in his life, let his heart lead him and slept next to her. And what a peaceful sleep he had. He spooned her from behind and draped his muscular arm over her waist. She looked like a dwarf in his arms. Too small for his massive frame. Her tiny waist was almost the size of his bulging veiny bicep. He buried his face in her blond locks and sniffed her hair which carried a faint smell of lilac. A delicious shudder passed down his spine. At that moment, how much he wished he had a wolf so that he could know her natural scent. She must have a sweet scent probably vanilla or strawberry. Elijah opened his eyes only to find the spot beside him vacant. She wasn't there. The realization slapped all his drowsiness away. He shot up immediately and looked around the cave with a worried look. Fear started to worm into his heart but before he could let it blind him, she finally appeared, bringing relief to his he
Sabrina pulled her hand out of his hold all the while trying to not let disgust mar her composed features. "You are more beautiful than what I had heard," Cyrus smiled strangely at her. Sabrina forced a smile on her face and thanked him for the compliment. Elijah watched everything with a clenched jaw. He absolutely loathed the way Cyrus was flirting with Sabrina."We should go in," Elijah interrupted them in a cold tone. Sabrina was grateful to him for stepping in. Cyrus simply smirked at Sabrina and told her he would see her soon. The king asked maids to usher her into the palace.The palace was even more beautiful from the inside but it held no appeal for Sabrina. No matter how magnificent it was, it was still a cage for her. A golden cage where she was condemned to live her whole life. The maids took her to an equally lavish room. The walls of the room were decorated with gold and had diamonds studded into them. The palace was way too extravagant when there were people outside
Elijah delivered a pernicious punch at the wolf that sent the animal flying in the opposite direction. A loud thud was heard before the wolf bleated into unconsciousness. The rage burgeoning in his heart shone coldly in his narrowed eyes. The other wolf came forward to tackle the seething man but only met the same fate as the wolf before him. A wave of dread spread among the other trainees. His ominous gaze swept across the crowd of trainees, sending a chill down their quivering spines. A heap of unconscious wolves lays at one of the corners of the training ground whereas he stood in the center, covered in blood and it was not his.None had ever seen Elijah this scary. He was not satisfied yet, he wanted more pain, more blood, more screams. It was apparent that the man-beast was not going to be tackled by just one wolf, so a group of werewolves attacked him but only to get thrown like a rug in all directions. The fallen Prince was unstoppable today.After the training, Elijah took a b
Today was Sabrina's welcoming ball. The entire town was excited except for Sabrina herself. If anything she felt for the upcoming event, it was dread. Today the date of their mating ceremony was to be announced. Cyrus didn't come to meet her last evening as Elijah had kept him engaged in number of works. She was more than thankful for that. She could pretend but her wolf would not. She would most likely go violent on him and shred him, royal or not. She was relieved that at least she wouldn't have to go through that ordeal. She was ripped from her thought by Cyrus' arrival announcement. She groaned in annoyance but quickly masked her irritation with a fake smile when the door opened and revealed the man she had no interest in seing. His eyes lit up with zeal as soon as they laid on her."Princess," he called. Sabrina climbed to her feet. "Your highness," she curtsied to the prince. The corner of his lip tugged up into a lopsided grin. Sabrina felt him approaching her and in no tim
Her heart stuttered with concern. His eyes were bloodshot and looked drunk. Is he drunk? Her suspicion was quelled when he lifted a glass of ale and drank it in one large swallow, all the while keeping his eyes on her. There was a glint of disappointment in his eyes. His blazing eyes roved over her body and rested where Cyrus was touching her. She turned to Cyrus and his one arm circled around her delicate waist. A wave of violent fury rose inside him as he glared at their point of contact. The bronze glass in his hand twisted with the pressure he was exerting on the poor container. He watched with suppressed fury as Cyrus twirled her around before drawing her back into his arms. She didn't even wince when he rested his hand on her waist. He didn't know why was he torturing himself like this. But he forced himself to watch their whole dance even though it was burning him. The crowd couldn't stop admiring the pair and that annoyed him even more.They are looking so beautiful together
"I don't wish to be mated just yet," Elijah said in a dismissive tone. He had no plans to settle down not until he had his revenge. A spasm of relief coursed through her. " I would have at least thought over it if I were you. The Silverstone stone is known for its ferocious army. It can be to our advantage during the war," the King remarked. Now everyone was looking at Elijah, curious to know his response. Elijah was very passionate about the war. Elijah spied a furtive glance at Sabrina before nodding his head. "I'll think over it," he stated reluctantly. A tear slipped down her eyes and she scooted the chair back to rise, snatching everyone's attention including Elijah's. "I am afraid I am not feeling well. Can I leave?" Sabrina pasted a small smile on her face. "Shall I accompany you?" Cyrus asked, staring up at her. The muscle along Elijah's jaw tightened and he clenched his fists. " I appreciate your concern, your highness, but I will be fine," she replied politel
Her pillow was soaked with her tears as she cried into it all night. The girl had broken down almost immediately after she heard his decision to mate with someone else. She knew she had hurt him. His decision was influenced by her remark. But still, it hurt. Her wolf was breathless with pain. Even imagining Elijah with someone else was heart-crushing. She had caught him glancing at her from her peripheral vision when he had made the announcement at the dinner table. Only she knew, how she had held back her tears. Cyrus wanted to go for a walk with her but she had refused outrightly, not even caring about the propriety, and rushed back to her chamber. She wished she was born as a human or maybe a bird. Anything but a werewolf. At least she wouldn't have to go through the pain she didn't volunteer for. The Silverstone pack was in the capital within a few days. The King gave them a grand welcome. Elijah was also there to welcome Amira, the daughter of Alpha Dimitri, and Elijah's would-
