'Mumma, catch me," Reagon shouted and scrammed towards the garden as fast as his little feet could. Smiling, Sienna chased Reagon. The boy was faster and very smart for his age. He had inherited his silver eyes from his dad with the slightest hint of her blue. Reagon had taken after his dad in terms of looks. Same hair, same aquiline nose, same sparkling eyes. The boy tripped over a pebble and landed on the floor. Sienna's smile vanished and she hurried toward him worryingly."Are you hurt?" she sat down on the ground and promptly gathered him in her arms. The skin of his knee was torn due to the fall and blood was trickling out. She told one of teh servants to bring first aid. "Mumma, I am fine," Reagon cupped his mom's face and assured her with a smile. His assurance brought a pang to her heart. Her face clouded with a mixture of pain and pride as she gazed at her son. The absence of a father figure in his life had forced him to grow quickly. Her little boy had caught her cryin
Her eyes were rimmed with tears but her lips were smiling as she lovingly gazed upon the man she was dying to see for years. Five excruciating years. She had waited for this man for five long years.The dirt covering his face mattered little to her as she caressed his scruffy cheek with her warm hand. An ache pushed against her chest when her fingertips grazed against a bruise. She touched the bruise and her vision blurred with tears. Those selfish pricks had tortured him so brutally. Her heart clenched with pain before she was struck with a sudden fury. "Launch an attack on the Elves. Show them what happens when they conspire against us," her voice came out firm and heavy with authority. Sean frowned. "They have alrady apologized. I don't think we should take such a big risk for a rogue," Sean protested. Irritation flickered through her features before she looked over her shoulder. "Do as I say," she commanded in a tone that demanded obedience. Being an alpha's daughter, she had
The news of him being the banished prince traveled fast. Several alphas expressed their objection through letters and emails. According to them, bringing him back was a disrespect to the late King. Whereas some supported Sienna, a larger group demanded to send him back into the woods. Sienna let out a heavy sigh as Karl read her the heap of letters that demanded Azriel's exile. There was no way she was going to let him go again. This was his home and this was where he would stay.After the meeting, she returned to her room. Her eyes found him instantly when she entered through the door. It had been three days and he wasn't awake yet but his wounds were healing fast. His health had improved a lot. The healer said it was because of their closeness. The mate bond was at its strongest as they were close. Dropping her jacket on the chair, she made her way toward the bed. The day had exhausted her. She eased down on her back and turned to face him. Laying her head on his bare chest she p
Azriel woke up to a start. He was engulfed by cold darkness. He felt terrible anxiety creeping over him when he looked around only to meet with darkness. He jerked up to run but couldn't move an inch. Realization stung him like a thorn. He was tied. "Inject wolfbane," a voice echoed in the room followed by heavy footsteps."Let me go," Azriel shouted while struggling to break free. Two large hands held his face before he felt a piercing pain on the side of his neck. His heartbeat slowed down instantly and his whole body burned with pain. He was injected with Wolfbane. The ordeal worsened when someone stuck something to the side of his head. He couldn't even get the time to register it before a jolting electric shock wrecked his body. His cold lips trembled to form a word but the onslaught of current kept him disoriented and twisting in pain. "No..No..Stop, it hurts...It hurts.." Sienna woke up to his mumbling. At first, she couldn't understand but when he continued to mumble the sam
"How long has it been?" he asked. "Five years," she told him. His eyes widened slightly. "I was there for four years," he concluded to himself. He sounded defeated. " How did they capture you?" she instinctively leaned towards him and asked. He looked up to meet her concerned gaze. "I was asleep when they injected me with wolfbane and took me to their prison. They kept me in silver chains and drugged me with wolfbane six times a day as I was too strong for them to handle," he told her in a resigned tone. His face held no expression but his voice was loaded with pain. Sienna was about to tear up. They had treated him worse than an animal. Those bastards. They will have a nightmarish end and she will personally see to it. She put her hand over his and offered him a gentle smile. "The way you braved it all till the last makes me admire you more," she said, squeezing his hand softly. Her confidence in him both melted and annoyed Azriel. "I am no longer the Azriel you knew
Their gaze snapped to the Reagon who was frowning at the doorway carrying a big blue ball in his hand. "Mummy?" Sienna heard Azriel's surprised whisper. Sienna grimaced at her boy before hastily lifting herself off Azriel. The boy dropped the ball and rushed over to Azriel. "Are you okay, dad? Did Mumma hurt you?" Reagon loomed over his dad and asked with his tiny brows snapped together. He appeared all set to lash out at his Mumma if Azriel told on her. It is at that moment Azriel realized how similar he looked to him. Azriel was too stunned to speak. Sienna stepped back and watched Reagon comforting Azriel with an amused look. "Get up, dad. I will help you," the boy bent down and wrapped his small fingers around his broad shoulders to hoist him up. He looked determined to help his dad up. Azriel just continued to gape at Reagon, all perplexed. "Up, dad. I won't be able to help you if you don't help yourself," Reagon urged while struggling to pull his dad up. Azriel pu
Dustin and Sean had visited to see Azriel the following day. Many things had changed in five years. Azriel wasn't the same. It pained them to realize how much he had endured in the last four years. His suffering had changed him for Azriel wasn't someone without a spirit. He was a born leader. An Alpha Out-and-Out. But right now he didn't resemble his previous self. They both had left after some time, not being able to see him like this. Little Reagon was on cloud seven since his father's return. He couldn't wait to show off his dad to his friends who had always asked him about his dad. Back then, he couldn't do anything but sulk. He had already made a long list of things that he was going to do with his dad. He had heard from Uncle Sean that his dad is a smashing Basketball player. He decided to ask his father to teach him how to play. He also wanted to be a smashing basketball player just like his dad. After finishing his lesson, the boy excitedly dashed towards his parents'
A smile swept across her face as she gazed lovingly at her beast. He was just as diabolical. His mesmerizing silver eyes were glittering like the moon in darkness. The beast could strike fear in anyone's heart merely by his monstrous form but not Sienna. She owned this monster. "Vulcan," she stroked his fur and whispered softly. The bed creaked as Vulcan rose to straddle her. His humongous body completely swallowed her tiny one. He could easily crush her to death with his weight but Sienna trusted him. The beast was too fond of her to hurt her. He bent and started slobbering her cheek. A delightful purr vibrated from his chest. Sienna giggled feeling his sticky drool covering her face. He was acting like a cute puppy. "Did you miss me?" she scratched behind his ear and asked while pecking his snout. In response, Vulcan lowered his face and licked her mark. An electric current spiraled down her spine making her curl inwardly. The beast pulled her sleeve down, careful not to h
