Ember’s POV:

It was silent since our visit to the South. Irritatingly loud silence.

The matter hung over our heads like a sword, and the lack of a plan about our next move was causing me so much distress, but Nicholus stayed determined to wait for a move from Father before jumping to any conclusions.

I had no idea what was going on in Father’s head, but this stretching silence from his side told me that he must be cooking something rotten.

That night, I was strolling on the lawn when I spotted Darius dashing out of the castle.

“Darius?” I approached him with hurried footsteps as he turned toward the woods.

He whipped around, surprised to see me there this late at night, “Ember? What are you doing here?”

I shrugged, “Just strolling around, inhaling some fresh air since Nicholus is busy with work.”

I looked over his shoulder at the woods he had turned to, “What about you?”

He grazed his fingers through his hair, something he did whenever he was distressed, “I was about to go on

Initially, I used to think that the mate bond between Sophie and Darius would be kind of cliche. But man...cliche or not, they're my favorite couple from now on😭❤️

  • Kidnapped By The Ruthless Alpha Of North   Chapter 240

    Ember’s POV:It’s been more than two weeks since the Council meeting, and my conversation with Father was still repeating on a loop in my head.Strolling with him on the lawn outside the building should have felt normal and casual, something that had been done countless times. He was my father, after all. But that day, walking beside him made me realize how foreign it was. Outside work and meetings, we hardly ever talked about anything else or spent any quality time together.As expected, I absorbed those precious moments because I knew they wouldn’t last forever.He was the first to break the silence. His voice sounded tired as if he hadn’t slept for days, “I don’t know whether she told you, but your mother came to the castle a few weeks ago.”My footsteps halted right there. My mother? I remembered the way she always quivered at his mention. Why would she go there?I decided to ask him, “Why?”He stared into the distance, “For you.”I gawked at him in disbelief, “For me?”His chest

  • Kidnapped By The Ruthless Alpha Of North   Chapter 239

    Ember’s POV:For the next few weeks, we spent most of the time cooped up in the office. We had gone ahead to register our case in the Council. They gave us a month to discuss with the other party and sort the matter out by ourselves.Since we had already done that and it was fruitless, we decided not to waste any of our time again. Our legal team has been involved. The Council had already sent a legal notice to Father, and today was the date of the first hearing.On our way to the Council, I did breathing exercises multiple times, and my mate kept repeating the mantra, “Relax, baby. Calm down.”This case would probably drag on for months because, as strong as our file was, Father wasn’t the one to back down that easily. That man would never give up his empire. Not for anyone.In the center of four continents, there was a small region unoccupied or unclaimed by any territory. That’s where the Council was.As the helicopters landed, we climbed out and, followed by our team of lawyers, w

  • Kidnapped By The Ruthless Alpha Of North   Chapter 238

    Mabel’s POV:With wide, frantic eyes, I slowly turned around to face Alexander Valdez. I have no words to describe what I was feeling in that one moment.My breathing turned ragged as I looked into those eyes.He was the person who flipped my whole world upside down just because of the sick obsession he used to call love. Only if he knew what true love was.My insides coiled as he started moving toward me.He killed my whole coven. He was the one because of whom I had to abandon my daughter. Even after running away, I never truly lived. He snatched everything from me. My life, my power, my dignity, my daughter…“Emilia…it’s really you,” he rasped out in disbelief.The more I stared at him, the more revolting I felt. Eventually, my gaze narrowed and my upper lip curled disgustingly as I said menacingly, “I am not Emilia. I am Mabel. Mabel Frostwood.”His footsteps stopped midway. Hurt flashed in his gaze as it roamed all over my face, “I…you…”My nostrils flared, “You what? Did you th

  • Kidnapped By The Ruthless Alpha Of North   Chapter 237

    Mabel's POV:While waiting for the guard to return, I turned my back to the castle and stared at the vast lawn spread over acres. That was the only place in this cage that brought me some solace. I closed my eyes and remembered the feeling of that soft grass under my bare feet.It was as far as Alexander allowed me to go, and that too with a dozen guards keeping a close eye on me. The feeling of being watched all the time always kept me on the edge.Once, I barged into his office and asked furiously, “Why do you keep me under surveillance 24/7?”He looked up from the file and stared at me for the whole minute before saying in an eerily calm voice, “Because I’m afraid.”I let out a bitter chuckle, “What? King Alexander is afraid of a poor, weak witch after stripping her of her magic by constantly keeping her under Velene?”At that, he discarded his pen on the desk and slowly rose to his full height. His 6’3”, heavily built frame always intimidated me with how it filled the space and ra

  • Kidnapped By The Ruthless Alpha Of North   Chapter 236

    Mabel’s POV:The night was the most restless one of my whole life. I hadn’t felt like this when Alexander kidnapped me, forcefully married me, raped me, put a baby inside me, or even when I abandoned a piece of my heart and ran away from the South.Even though all those events were heart-wrenching none of them equate to what I was feeling over these last few days. Whenever I saw Ember mopping around like a wilting flower, my heart clenched, and the fact that I couldn’t do anything for her was even more torture.Tonight, my heart wasn’t at ease, my mind was a jumbled mess of chaotic thoughts, and my body was itching with the feeling of helplessness. The fact that I’d never been a good mother to my only daughter had been eating me from the inside from the moment I abandoned her in that crib and ran away.No amount of words was enough to describe the sorrow I felt or the burden I’d been carrying in my heart ever since that night.Ever since she visited the South, something has been naggi

  • Kidnapped By The Ruthless Alpha Of North   Chapter 235

    Ember’s POV:After one week of utter and itching silence came the storm I’d been dreading all along.Alpha Alexander Valdez, King of the South, has officially announced his nephew, Lucas Valdez, to be his successor.According to our information, rumors about our visit to the South had spread like a fire there and by now, all sorts of theories were being revolved.Some people believed my purpose of the visit was to abdicate from the throne, and that aligned perfectly with the timing of Father’s recent public declaration. But some people believed I was planning to take over the throne as the rightful heir. Some insisted that it was some wicked trick of the King of the North who first married Princess Ember and now was using her to take over the South.There was a time when we used to talk about nice things on the dining table, but now whenever we gathered at one place, the only topic of our discussion was the South.Ethan poured himself a glass of water, “So, apparently, we’ve been wait
