ASHER'S POVWhen I got back from the errand I had to run, I went straight into the room to find Elysia. All through my drive back home, my mind had been on Elysia, I could not just wait for the evening so that we would go back to our pack and enjoy the peace which we had missed for the past few months.There was a smile on my face when I pushed the door open because I had gotten Elysia one of her favourite snacks and I was anticipating the look on her face when I handed it over to her.The smile on my face immediately faded when I pushed the door open and noticed that Elysia was not in the room, and from the look of things, it looked like she had been gone for a long.I got a little apprehensive but didn't think much of it. I brushed it off because I had left her under the care of Nikolai. If anything had gone wrong, he would have called immediately to inform me.I thought they had probably gone out for a walk and would be back soon, so I decided to take that chance and pack up our st
ELYSIA'S POVThe tension which was starting to rise in me since I woke up and found myself in shackles under Nikolai quickly began to clear as soon as my eyes met with Asher's. I sucked in a breath and tried not to let the relief show on my face and instead, keep distracting Nikolai so that Asher could get all the time to do whatever he had to do."Why are you doing this, Nikolai? I thought you and Asher were friends, he trusted you with his life and you chose to do this to him."I was actually really surprised that Nikolai was doing this, despite all the trust Asher had in him."Why am I doing this?" Nikolai scoffed."It's because I'm pained, you moron." He fired at me."I hate the fact that Asher has always been the one to get all the good things. He is the Alpha while I was just his side dog who followed him around like a faithful servant." He fumed."And among all, he is cruel and wicked, while I clean up his messes. Do you know how tiring it is having to be the one to clean up th
ELYSIAI let out a soft gasp and took in a deep breath when I felt the sharp pain in my stomach for the second time that day. Apart from the cramp in my stomach, it was more difficult trying to keep a straight face and pretending to be fine even when I felt that much pain. I tried to ignore the pain, hoping that it would go away soon. After all that wasn't the first time and the doctor had told me several times that the pain was normal.It was already nine months into my pregnancy but I was not yet close to the delivery date the doctor had given me.I was helping out at work in the pack. I had been doing that ever since because Asher had refused to assign another beta after what happened with Nikolai so I had been doing most of the beta work.And I must confess that it had been an interesting one for me all this while since it gave me a sense of belonging and I no longer felt left out.Soon, Asher came in with dinner for me. My eyes lit up the moment I saw him."You look stressed." He
ELYSIA'S POVBoth I and Asher were over the moon that night after we returned home with our set of twins.We were welcomed home by all the excited pack members and and the servants in the palace when we returned home with our children.They must have been waiting outside the palace as soon as they heard about my delivery.Neither I nor Asher could get any sleep that night because we were too excited. Even the food we were served for rejected because we could not eat it.Instead, we both sat awake watching the faces of the two children."Miraculous isn't it?" Asher asked me as we sat over the babies' cot watching the sleep."We expected just one child, but the goddess ended up giving us two." He told me.I had a bright smile on my face because I had other things in mind.It was difficult for he to believe the drastic turn around in my life within the past year. I remembered that I had come here as I breeder, but here I was, as the Luna and with a set of twins for the Alpha.I began to
Elysia’s POV: I woke up with a groan, shutting my eyes tighter hoping it would help with the blooming headache forming behind my eyes. I shouldn’t have cried so much last night. I thought to myself as I turned around in the small dingy bed that croaked as I moved. I sniffed pitifully before slowly opening my eyes which felt like they had been glued shut. The darkness in the room comforted me a little, although I knew it was still pretty early and all the other girls in the room were still asleep it was good to know that no one could watch me be miserable. Last night had been the worst night of my life, which was saying a lot because working in Miss Tanya’s house guaranteed that every night was horrible but I had been hoping all of that would change last night. I had turned nineteen and performed my coming-of-age ritual and the heartbreak that had come when I walked out of the healer’s hut as a white omega wolf had been more devastating than losing my parents. It meant that there
Elysia’s POV:“You’re too slow Elysia, if I come back here and you’re still on that vegetable we’re going to have a problem.” I heard Tanya’s voice from behind me and I forced my hands to go faster, ignoring the blister that was starting to form from holding on to the knife for so long. Tanya knew I didn’t do very well in the kitchen, I got hurt easily and the aromas always choked me, but she always insisted on assigning me to the kitchen. I blinked rapidly to ease the burning in my eyes but it only seemed to worsen it and salty tears rolled down my cheeks making the mess on my face even worse. I dabbed at the sweat that was forming on my forehead before continuing to work on the vegetables in front of me. “Can you try to not drown the vegetables in front of you? Why is there so much liquid coming out of you? You’re just dicing some carrots!” Caren, one of the other girls said as she passed by me but I ignored her and only continued to focus on my work. Thankfully the next time Tan
Elysia’s POV: I followed Tanya out of the room without question and we walked in silence until we reached the small living area that we barely ever occupied. It was reserved for Tanya and her friends when they visited and the only time I had ever really stayed in the space was whenever I had been assigned to clean it. In the living space was another girl, I didn’t remember a time where I had ever seen her so my guess was that she wasn’t one of Tanya’s girls. She was beautiful, extremely so, with beautiful curves, flawless skin, red flowing hair that dropped to her waist, and hauntingly captivating eyes. As I approached her, I couldn't help but feel a pang of envy mixed with curiosity settle in my stomach, especially since she had an air of confidence that I could only dream of achieving. She watched me with eyes that seemed to penetrate deep into my soul and the intensity made me almost stumble. Thankfully, Tanya was speaking so I had an excuse to look away from the girl in front
Asher’s POV: I let out an agonizing scream as the pain tore through my frame once more, my senses were on fire and I shuddered as the overwhelming desire to kill and destroy overtook my frame. I knew it was only a matter of time before my Lycan was taking over completely and when that happened there was no telling what would happen as I had no control over that part of me. I had been hoping that I wouldn’t have another episode in a long while especially since my last one had gone on for so long but it seemed like I was nearing the end of the rope. It was miraculous how I had managed to survive the curse for so long but it didn’t seem like I could hold on for much longer. The growing intensity of the pain and the overwhelming urges were becoming too much to bear and I was losing control of my Lycan faster than was safe for myself and everyone around me. I had made many mistakes in my lifetime, one of which had happened in my earlier rule as Alpha King, I had felt above the world and
