Alpha Grindley’s POVA few months back, I had gone on a battle spree where I was fortunate to meet a very good friend of mine.Blind, yet he was smart to rule a pack on his own. No one has dared cross his lines.And the ones who dared it ended up bathing in their blood.“Alpha Grindley, it’s nice to have you here with me.” Alpha Aelle welcomed me with open arms.“Tell the maids to prepare something delicious for my very good friend,” he burst into laughter.At first, I hardened my face playfully, but soon I burst into laughter before hugging him tighter.“Don’t worry, your slaves and properties are safe with me,” Alpha Aelle replied.Gesturing for me to have a seat, I couldn’t help but scrutinize some of the naked maids whose bodies were very captivating, and yeah, sinful.“You like?” Alpha Aelle asked, his eyes fixed on me as my gaze fell on another maid who looked much more beautiful than the one I had seen earlier.“I love… my dear friend,” I burst into laughter, as I watched Alpha
Lena’s POV My body trembled at a slight brush of his lips on mine. “I've never done this before,” I whispered in fear. My heart tightened as I felt a knot tie in my stomach. For a moment, my cheeks burned hot as I tried to feel my body temperature.Noah, on the other end, quickly let go of me before going back to his apology zone. “I didn't mean to frighten you,” was all he could say before stepping back. “Get some rest,” he said with a frown lingering on his face. I couldn't tell his emotions apart. Could he be angry because I had pushed him off? Or is it still about the slap from earlier?“Where are you going?” I almost jumped to my feet. I'm scared of his father, and I wasn't sure I wanted to be alone here. Noah seems like the only person I could trust.“I thought you might need some rest,” he said without looking back at me. “I'm not tired,” I answered, hoping and praying to the moon goddess that he doesn't leave me. “Would you like to come along to see the river bank
Lena’s POVI stared at him like I had just seen a ghost, as I shook my head in disapproval. “I don't–”“You are Ava’s daughter, right?” he repeated, his eyes boring into mine. Fear gripped me as I realized how desperate he sounded. There was something about the way he looked at me. He seems so impatient, and his wife doesn't like the way he sounds either. If this were Noah’s parents, then I don't think I would want to spend much time here. They don't look welcoming enough. They are much fiercer than my pack here. I don't think I can cope. “Alpha, I think you are scaring the girl,” Luna held his hand, causing him to retard a bit. Looking behind to see Noah still staring at me with his chest rising and falling, my heart raced faster Why am I feeling this way even when I didn't have a wolf?“Did you just call her mate?” His mother asked, a smile tugging on her lips. “Come, child,” she beckoned to me. “Come and sit with us.” My knees wobbled beneath me as I tried to walk towar
Lena’s POVI had woken up the the smell of herbs which had stung my nose so badly, causing me to sneeze out.“Finally, you are awake,” “Who are you and where am I?” I asked the young lady whose back was against me.Judging from the way she looked, I can tell she is the pack’s doctor. But this doesn’t bother me at all. I just want to leave this place and go back home. Although I’m aware that my absence won’t be felt, I still have to leave this place.“This is the Mooner’s pack. And the prince had brought you here for treatment,” The young lady replied, packing her tools back into her toolkit.“Mooner’s pack? The Prince?” I repeated, staring at her, confused.“I have to leave now,” She said, motioning towards the door. “My work here is finished.”“But–”“Thank you,” I heard a masculine voice just outside the corridor. Moving backward a bit, I saw him walk in. The handsome young man who had rescued me earlier in the woods.Getting a closer look at him right now, he doesn’t look so bad
Grindley’s POV“You’ve always been doing this, Nora,” I reprimanded before sitting on the throne, gripping its arm so firmly.“You cannot just disown him because he’s not interested in Eva, Grindley.” Nora shot back angrily."It’s high time that he mans up, Nora. You cannot treat a grown-up man like a child,”“And you think forcing him into marriage will make him become an adult? Are you even thinking?” Nora flinched before turning towards the maids.“Leave us, all of you,” I commanded in anger, striking my fist against the arm of my throne.Just as everyone had left, I walked down from my throne, staring at Nora in disgust. “I’m not forcing him into marriage. I’m doing what’s right,” I lashed at her in anger, my eyes filled with rage.It’s been twenty years since Ava had disappeared, and my hopes of ruling the world got shattered. The battle between the werewolves and the shadow wolves was so fierce that even the victory we had at that time was a narrow escape.I never knew Nora wa
Lena’s POVI felt my chest burn, causing me to throw up blood in front of everyone.I collapsed to the ground as the pain of the rejection hit me hard. I felt my body tremble as tears welled down my cheeks.After loving Ashley for many years, it was a painful thing to be met by rejection and humiliation in front of the whole pack.“I think the moon goddess was mistaken to have given Lena to Ashley. He deserves better than her,” I heard one of the pack members whisper.Liana smiled wickedly, as she quickly controlled herself upon seeing me looking at her with tears rolling down my cheeks.Why do I deserve this hatred from my people? Why do they hate me so much?Henza rushed towards me, holding me against her chest as I watched Ashley walk towards my sister Liana.I could read her expression. This is what she has always desired.It was now I knew that Ashley had only played a game between the two of us to see the one will get her wolf amongst us.Right now, I feel betrayed, humiliated,
Lena’s POVAs I stepped into the spot light, I shone brighter in the middle of the ballroom, my jewelry complemented the sparkles as I walked elegantly towards my father.“Princess Lena is here,” the guards announced.I was sure I had stolen the spotlight as I watched jealousy play on Liana’s face. “She’s so beautiful,” I could hear whispers from the pack members. Not only was I beautiful, but I was breathtaking that every eligible Alpha of the neighboring packs couldn’t help but drool over me.Even my father's jaw dropped upon seeing me tonight. “She looks a lot like Ava now,” Xander his beta said with a smile on his face.Unlike Aunt Penny, who looks at me with some sort of hateful eyes, Xander, her husband and mate was caring and nice towards me. The only thing was that after the death of my mother, I was told he was the only confidante my father had in the pack.“Shall we start?” My father said, clearing his throat before relaxing back into his throne.Henza’s gaze settled on m
Lena’s POVIt’s been twenty years since my mother died. The story of how she was loved by my father and how my birth had caused him to lose her spread around the pack like wildfire.My sister Liana was the most loved amongst us. Even by my dad and even Aunt Penny.Not just that, Aunt Penny’s son, Ashley, is also in love with Liana, while I was treated like an outcast for something I know nothing about.My name is Lena, and this is my story.“She looks a lot like Ava. I think you should bring her close now. You cannot hate her forever,” I overheard Xander, his beta, persuading him.Unlike Liana, who was given anything she wanted, I was made to stay in the palace and train myself.Liana didn’t even help matters. She has always been treating me like a rival rather than her sister. Sometimes I wonder if she truly was my sister or someone else.I love Liana so much, but the reverse was the case for me.I’m not training myself just because I want to, but I’m doing that to impress my father
Ava’s POVI never expected this to be so soon. I’ve always thought that every wolf will have to be of age before they can start showing their unique characters. But no, my beautiful daughter Lena had displayed her abilities beautifully, and she has taken every gift that the moon goddess has bestowed upon me.Blood started oozing from my ears, as tears continued to flow down my face. Now that death was calling, I never wanted to leave anymore.“Ava,” Lark called my name in what seemed like stutters. His hands shook in fear as he tried to stop the blood. But it was inevitable.My vision, which was blurred with tears, never made me realise that he was already tearing up. “Lark,” I whispered in pain, the veins on my head pulsating, as I raised my hand, which was already filled with blood, to wipe off his tears.“You are stronger than this–”“No,” he cuts in, mucors dripping off his nose. “No, I’m not, Ava Goldington. You are my strength.” He cried out, holding my hands tight, and a con
