SOFIA'S POV

The wedding plans were in full gear.

Me and Selene had that to worry about.

The council members had remained quiet since Dane had one of them locked up already. I was sure there wasn't going to be any protest from any of them anymore.

The weight of the planning was heavy and soon began to take a toil on me. Dane was a Lycan king, and this means that we had to plan for a lot of people.

Accommodations for other Alphas', and those who would be accompanying them. Then even his business partners. Oh my — I wasn't sure it was ever going to end.

I was exhausted already and couldn't wait for the day to come by. A long sigh escaped from my lips as I sank heavily into the chair behind me.

“You must be pretty exhausted,” Selene chipped in, grabbing a chair for herself. I nodded my head in response, too weak to speak.

“By the way, The designer should be here with the dress any minute from now.”

I nodded, a bit excited. “I only hope he has done a good job with the dress. There isn't

    SOFIA'S POV Dane kept mute for a few seconds. I did same as well. His countenance did the talking. Definitely, something was wrong.“It's nothin,” he said abruptly, patting me on my shoulders. He also wore a smile.I wasn't convinced though. What is it that had started? I pushed the thought to the back of my mind, making a mental note to ask about it later.“You should go to bed now. The night is Old and you've been busy the entire day.” The energy in his voice — gone, without a trace.I nodded, walking towards the bed. “You should get some rest too.”He nodded. “I will.”I was worried. His shoulders were steeped lower, and his face was no different from a man who had lost his joy.Oh, he seemed to have.With my back against the soft bed, the thought continued to ring in my head. I tossed around until I eventually fell asleep.All was dark… It was frightening too. My eyes had suddenly flung open, only to be greeted by such thick darkness.My entire life, I had never seen such. I gul

    DANE'S POVI sat on my chair in the study, my gaze fixed on the book before me. I was to be married the next day.I wasn't excited about it though. When you've been married five times already, then there's nothing that would excite you about a sixth marriage.All I had was hope. Hope that Sofia would be better than the others, and I wouldn't have to have a seventh marriage.The lords of the council would never agree to this. I exhaled, exhausted.My hands tapped softly against the table as my thoughts slowly drifted. “Hello sir!!” Someone charged in abruptly. It was sudden, taking me off guard.“What is it? How dare you barge into my study?” I snapped, my eyes almost popping from their sockets.He recoiled, his hands by his side. “I'm sorry, your Grace.” Then he paused. His countenance was soft. Spoke words his mouth didn't.“What is It? Speak!!”“She has begun.”I jumped to my feet, mad. “How did she manage to leave her room?” I was completely infuriated. My hands tightened into fis

    SOFIA'S POV The time was here already. I was fully dressed — Ready to become Dane's wife, and the Luna of the Blood creek pack. Not just that, I would also be the Lycan queen.Oh, how this appealed to me.In all, I got the most worthy man. My hand maid stood by my side and together, we looked out through the window.“Everything's set, right?”She nodded. “Yes ma'am. The wedding should commence an hour from now.”I nodded, pleased. From where I stood, I could see the entire space gradually being filled up. There wouldn't be any less than five hundred dignitaries and all in attendance.“My lady,” Someone called from behind me. So close, yet so distant. I turned my head, the need to see who it was, heavy in me.A soldier advanced, halting only when he was inches away. I stared at him. “My lady. I have a message from the king.”I frowned. Why would Dane send me a message when all that separated us was the stairs. “I'm all ears,” I responded, anxious. He reached for a paper, handing it o

    SOFIA'S POV I charged out of the study, panting. My boobs jumped around as I raced off. It didn't make much difference that it was being held in my gown.That voice from the storage. No doubt, it was Dane. I turned the doorknob, and there he stood, nursing his foot. He had crashed against a barrel in there.“Are you alright?” I asked, worried. He glared at me, pissed. “Do I look over to you?” He clutched his legs as he sat still. I helped him at once, gently massaging the leg.Minutes ago, he was strong enough to stand on his own feet. I still helped him, gently placing his weight on my shoulders.The image that I had seen in his office, I just couldn't keep quiet about it. I swallowed hard, my eyes flickering incessantly.“Dane!” My voice was barely above a whisper as I called. He stared at me, a grunt for a response.“I went into your office just now, and I noticed an image of myself. Surprisingly, it wasn't a picture taken today. It was quite Old, and the man in it wasn't you.”H

    DANE'S POV I was lucky this time. I wasn't sure I would have the same luck next time.How could I have placed it within her reach. Well, it wasn't expected that she would go into my study when she did.I couldn't remember owning such image. Could it be?? No!! I shook my head to get rid of the thought.I exhaled, my gaze fixed on the white washed ceiling. Somehow, sleep had eluded me and all I could do was stare.It made no sense that after the stress of the entire day, I still couldn't fall asleep. Now, I needed a drink.My hands groped around for the jar usually on my bed side table. I shook it — empty.Damn it!! Does one need to remind these maids of what to do at all times? I shut my eyes tight for a few seconds, jumping out of bed right after. I could have rung the bell which would immediately alert the maids quarter, but that might wake Sofia, and that, I didn't want.One step after the other— I walked until I was out of the room. I sighed, frustrated. My hands remained claspe

    SOFIA'S POV I didn't like the fact that it was morning already. The night appeared quite shorter than it should.It made no sense though that the day would be unnecessarily long, then the night would fade off like fart.My body still ached, and a few more hours of sleep was what I needed, but what would the people say if they find out their Luna is nothing but a sleeping beauty.No, I didn't want that. I jumped to my feet, dragging along the tiled floor. I was still too exhausted to walk as I should.I was hungry too. My bellt wouldn't cease rumbling. I rang the bell, my lips curtly pressed against each other. My handmaid raced in, bowing before me.Such well mannered girl. She was sleek too and quite dedicated. I did like her. “Good morning, your grace. What would you have me do?” She asked, her head raised to me.I smiled, gently patting her on the back. I didn't like that she was kneeling before me. “I feel a bit hungry. Do you think it's because I didn't eat anything before go

    DANE'S POV Fear rooted inside of me. Intense.. heavy.I tried acting brave… tough. How long could I act for though?I wasn't sure I could hold on for long What could have happened to her exactly? Thinking of it alone almost made me go crazy.Tears formed in my eyes. I couldn't allow them down my face— that I knew. A Lycan king couldn't allow himself to be vulnerable before his people.I stood outside the hall where Sofia had been wheeled into, pacing through the length of it. My teeth gnashed against each other as I waited.“Please keep her safe. Please..” I wasn't sure if those words of mine could count as prayers, especially from the lips of someone like muse The door flung open abruptly. I stood, watching the doctors and nurses walk out. Their faces didn't look so excited.Did something bad happen? Did? No… I shook my head, refusing to let such thoughts occupy my mind.I gulped down saliva, slowly approaching him. “Hello doctor. How is she?” The words appeared stale on my lips.

    SOFIA'S POV Laying on the bed with my gaze fixed on the white washed ceiling didn't quite fit me at that moment.I tossed around, my mind filled with various thoughts.I also wanted to know. Who had poisoned me?Some more, I rolled, biting hard at my lower lips. Unable to bear it anymore, I jumped to my feet, moving quickly along the hall.Not quite sure how Dane would take to this, but I was certain I didn't want to remain in bed anymore. “Your grace, you're to remain in bed ma'am.” A guard said to me. His voice, soft yet commanding. I ogled hard at him, anger consuming me.“Who are you to tell me where to be or not? You do want your body feasted on by vultures right?”“I'm sorry, your grace. It's not in my intention to disrespect you. I was only stating the Alphas’s wishes.”“I would deal with the alpha, but if you know what's best for you, you'll get on immediately.”The young scurried off, his balls dangling in between his legs. “Moron.”I charged on, halting only when I was in

    SOFIA'S POV I stood, dumbstruck. My eyes flickered non-stop. Nothing made sense — most especially the sight before me.“Nooooo!!” My voice pierced through the sky, loud enough to awake the dead. My heartbeat tripled. I could feel it thumping against my chest.“Someone, please help..” I screeched. I was terrified. No, that was an understatement. The way I felt right then, I had never felt such way my entire life.The door flung open right then. Dane. He stood, his eyes resting on the corpse, then on me. “What happened?” He sounded cold, fierce too.My lips parted, slowly. I tried to speak but couldn't get the words out. My hands shook. My whole body too.“He.. he's dead.”Dane dropped the food he had dropped with him onto the table. “What happened? Please don't tell me..”He stared at me in a way that made my skin tingle. His hand wrapped around my shoulder as he stood next to me. “He.. he killed himself. I don't know why, and neither do I understand his reason for it, but he did it

    SOFIA'S POV I sat still, my eyes darting around. Nothing made sense to me, definitely not the room I was in.My eyes darted around. They bore the confusion in my heart as I remained still. The door flung open abruptly. A nurse strolled in. She was fully covered. Strange. My brows creased as I glared at her for answers.“Finally! You're awake.” She smiled. It was quite contagious, but not to me though. “What's going on? Why am I here?” My displeasure was obvious, not in any way hidden.“You shouldn't be sitting here,” she muttered as I tried sitting upright. A sharp pain hit me hard in the back. I groaned, laying backwards at once.I was puzzled, and this nurse wasn't making things easier. Why wouldn't she answer me? My patience was starting to wane. “Why am I here?” Again, I asked. I snapped. “The doctor will be here soon,” she responded, and that was all. Her lips remained grimly pressed against each other as she did some things in there. I didn't pay attention to it, so there w

    SELENE'S POV This is the first time you'd be hearing directly from me. I'm the only one in the right state of mind to do so though.Sofia was unconscious, fighting for her life. Dane was a shadow of him, broken by the causality that had befallen his wife.I sat in a corner, my hands fiddling against each other. The tears grew in my eyes. For the last hour, they had flown freely down my face…No attempt did I make at stopping them. An hour, and Sofia was still in the theatre.“We would have to operate on her,” the doctor had said to Dane and I after Sofia's examination. “She's been poisoned.” His voice had been cold. “A rare kind of Wolfsbane. We would have to operate on the queen.”Dane’s face had grown cold. He was terrified. Who could have done that to his wife? “Please do everything you can to save her.”It felt like an entire day had gone by since then. I was impatient. Seeing Sofia alive and well was all I wanted.“She'll be fine.” My arm wrapped around him. He snorted, his hea

    DANE'S POV The name seemed to ring a bell, or maybe I thought it did.“No, I don't.” I smiled as Sofia flung the question in my face. We remained in each other's arms and the long for her intensified. My cock had grown hard, pressing hard through the trousers I wore. No doubt, Sofia could feel it against her thigh.Right then, my belly made a loud rumble. Sofia raised her head to me, laughing. “That was loud, wasn't it?”“You should ignore it.” “You sure? Have you had anything to eat today?” She asked, a worried grimace on her.I shook my head. “I can eat after I have eaten.” I leaned closer, my lips sucking hard at her neck. She giggled, a soft moan trailing from her lips. She pushed forward, her boobs pressing hard against my chest. Her nipples stood taut, pleading to be caressed.I latched at them, fondling with reckless abandon. She giggled, wincing. “Do you know what I'm going to do now?” I whispered gently at her, nibbling at her ears.“Oh I do.” Her eyes rolled. Just the wa

    SOFIA'S POV Soon, it was the close of school. I was pleased, and happy too. Quite exhausted and warned nothing but to relax. Selene was done with her class too. She smiled as she approached me, picking her steps one after the other.“So how was your first day at school, generally?” Her hand held mine— warm and tender. I exhaled, my eyes filled with a strange joy.“It was nice. Really really nice. It would be lovely coming here everyday, or what do you think?” Silence. Then a deep sigh. I knew what that sigh meant though.“I can bet you'd soon get tired of coming here. You're only this excited before it's the first time after a long while.”I giggled. She was right, but not entirely. I could never get tired of studying, or even coming here to the school. There was this happened that came with being here.“Maybe. Maybe not. Waiting till that moment to find out would be better…” “I'm a bit hungry. You?” I clutched my stomach, my lips pouted. “Same here.. we can grab some food at a r

    DANE'S POV I sat at my office desk, the morning sun shining through the tall windows. The room was quiet, just the soft ticking of the wall clock and the gentle hum of the air.Papers were placed neatly in front of me, my laptop screen was open.But I couldn’t even remember what I was supposed to be working on.I sighed and leaned back in my chair. “Come on, Dane,” I whispered to myself. “Just focus.”But my mind wasn’t listening. All I could think about… was her.Sofia.The way she had smiled at me that morning… so soft and full of hope.The way her hand lingered in mine before she left.The way Selene teased us, and how she had blushed and looked down shyly. She looked like a schoolgirl, yet so strong at the same time.I smiled to myself. My chest felt warm just thinking about her.I took a deep breath and ran a hand over my face.“She’s safe,” I muttered quietly. “She has guards. Selene is with her. There’s no reason to worry.”Still… I did. Not because I didn’t trust the guards

    SOFIA'S POV I really did love it there—the school. The moment I stepped in, I felt it. Peace. Like a quiet song playing in the wind. The air was cool and smelled of fresh leaves and old books. The tall trees stood proud, their long branches dancing gently in the morning breeze. Birds sang somewhere nearby. The gardens were neatly trimmed, and every flower looked like it had bloomed just for that day.It was calm. So calm. And after everything that had happened in the palace—the fear, the shadow in the room, the tension—I needed calm more than anything.Selene walked beside me, her hands behind her back, looking around with her usual sharp eyes.“Nice place,” she said, nodding. “Quiet. Smells like nothing's ever gone wrong here.”“That’s why I like it,” I said, my voice soft. “For once, I want to feel normal.”As we walked past students and teachers, people turned their heads. A few girls stopped talking and just stared. One of them gave a small wave and smiled shyly.“Good mor

    DANE'S POV I stood over his bleeding body, the weight of what I had done pressing heavily on me. His blood, dark and thick, pooled around him on the cold stone floor. The iron scent filled the room, and I could feel it in my nostrils, sharp and bitter, like a reminder of the choice I had made.My hands shook slightly, but not from fear—no, not fear. My heart raced with something different. .I had seen him, the Northerner, his eyes wild, his expression twisted with fury as he charged at me. He had wanted my life. He had come for me, just like I had known he would. The knife in my hands had stopped him—just in time. The gash in his belly was enough to slow him, enough to take his strength away.And now here he was, crumpled at my feet.I knew it wouldn’t sit well with the North. This was their man—one of their own. The anger, the rage, it would be loud, I was sure of it. But I didn’t care. Let them say what they would. Let them call it an insult, an act of war, whatever they wanted

    DANE'S POV The next morning, I was walking through the halls when a guard came to me and said, “My Lord, the guest from the North wishes to speak with you. He says it is urgent.”I frowned. It was still early, and I hadn’t expected to see him until much later in the day. I nodded and followed the guard.When I reached the guest chambers, the man from the North stood near the window, already dressed and packed. His clothes were neat, but his face wasn’t calm like before. He looked… unsettled. His hands were tight at his sides, and there was no sign of his usual smirk or boldness.“You wanted to see me?” I asked, stepping into the room.He turned around quickly, almost too quickly. “Yes,” he said. “I must return to the North. Immediately.”I raised an eyebrow. “So soon? You said you’d stay a few more days.”He gave a stiff nod. “Yes. I did. But… something has come up. Very urgent.”I took a step closer, watching him carefully. “Is everything alright?” I asked. “You don’t seem like you
