Ian's p.o.vAfter having lunch with Amelia, I went to my office and sat down to think through everything.My hands were tied when it came to the Alpha king and she looked so worried about everything.I had said those words to calm her down and I did mean it when I said I would die for her because I was ready to lay down my life. What I feared was the fact that the bastard who was coming after her was of royal blood, which meant he had a lot of experience, skills, and an army. If Aurora would easily overpower my whole pack by just standing her ground as an alpha queen, then the bastard was a way stronger threat to my people. He would wipe us out completely. That alone made me anxious. I needed to find a way to defeat the bastard or kill him."How about seeking advice from Felix and her family?" Axel asked seriously."What!" I exclaimed."You heard me. Seek advice from her." He answered in nearly a loud growl."You don't mean advice, you mean help, don't you?" I asked."I don't care w
Felix's p.o.v"What's up with you?" Jeannie asked seriously.I glared at her then walked past her angrily. She quickly rushed to where I was and grabbed my hand."Felix, I am talking to you!" She exclaimed loudly."What!" I spat when I turned and faced her."What the hell is wrong with you? Since yesterday you have been acting up. Are you fighting with Chase?" She asked as I glared at her."What the hell, does everything revolve around him?" I asked back seriously. "Not really, it doesn't. But you do show him care that you show no one." She answered as I sighed in defeat.She wasn't wrong with that, but that didn't mean he and I were all lovey-dovey. Since that talk we had at Ian's pack I thought everything would change between us but it didn't. I would feed from him as usual then ask him to leave hoping he would put up a fight, but the asshole just smiled and excused himself. I was already fucking pissed and agitated by the damn situation. As if that bullshit wasn't enough, I had t
Amelia's p.o.vI glanced at Toni a few times while eating, then at Nana who was smiling at me. Ian was quietly eating and he looked very calm sitting next to Neo who was drinking whiskey without touching his food.The atmosphere in the room wasn't bad, but for some reason, it wasn't good either."Should I talk to them?" I asked Aurora silently."Don't bother." Ian answered through our mind link.I quickly looked at him with a frown.I still wasn't used to him hearing everything I was thinking about openly, that's why he easily found out about the alpha king."Why?. It feels awkward eating in silence." I said through our mind link.He looked at me then carefully put his fork beside his plate."Brother." He called softly then turned and looked at Neo who raised his head and looked back at him."Have you decided what we should do with your rejected mate Sherry?" He asked seriously as Neo's expression turned cold for a second before he looked at Toni with a pleading ex
Neo's p.o.vI stood staring at my mate again in silence. I didn't know what to say or how to act around her. She wasn't the first mate I had ever been blessed with by the moon goddess yet it all felt new.I was upset with Ian a few minutes ago because of how he wanted to make her uncomfortable. If I was to stay and entertain his crap he would have targeted her even more. But then he was who I ought to thank, because of him I couldn't just let my mate see me as some guy who couldn't defend or try to comfort her."I'm so sorry," I said softly then cleared my throat and sat down on the table grabbing my fork."Ian may be cold at times and very rude, but that doesn't mean he is a bad person." I said without looking at her.I was about to eat when I heard her sniff.She was in tears even before I had walked back into the room, I could smell it yet I had to pretend that I knew nothing.I was happy to have a second chance mate, to be honest. But as joyous as I was, I was very afraid of givin
Amelia's p.o.v"Are you okay?'" Nana asked as we walked in the pack corridor."Yes, I'm just a little nervous." I answered honestly.I woke up to an empty bed and ate breakfast without Ian. I didn't want to ask where he was or go around searching for him, because he was a busy man. As the alpha of the pack, he was obviously taking care of important things, that's why I decided to take a bath, dress, and visit Toni. But Nana showed up once I was done dressing up and then asked me to join her outside the pack. When I asked if something was going on, she told me it was Ian's orders.I didn't know why he would ask for me and that only made me feel even more nervous the closer we moved to the entrance."You don't have to be, Ian is your mate. I'm sure he just misses you." She answered softly when we came out of the pack house."Aurora what do you think?" I asked silently."Trust him." She answered then kept quiet.We went to the training field where loud noises were coming from. Immediatel
Ian's p.o.v"How are you holding up?" Neo asked in my office.I put the file I was going through on the table and looked at him."I'm alright brother, I'm more concerned about you." I answered honestly."Why me?" He asked."Because I have decided to kill your ex-mate's wolf." I answered.He moved and pulled out a chair which was opposite me then sat down."It's better than brutally killing her. I won't lie, I didn't expect you to show mercy on her, you really have changed Ian." He said then smirked."Women do play a major role in one's life." He muttered as I rolled my eyes."Quit being funny." I pointed out then relaxed in my seat."We will make sure the pack members adjust and adapt to the new rules, so don't worry and leave everything to us." He answered.I brushed my fingers through my hair then sat upright."I hope it turns out well, you know." I whispered."It will, but... was it a good idea to keep everyone in the dark?" He asked."You mean I should have told them about the Alp
Felix's p.o.v I was joking when I had requested for a glass of whisky, but after hearing the whole story, I seriously wanted one."Amelia, can I have a glass of whisky right now?" I asked."Sure." She answered then moved to the whisky table which was at the corner of the room."Felix, do you have any plans or suggestions of what we should do?" Ian asked in his chair."Oh let me think. The alpha king's bite is deadly to me and compared to how long I have lived on this damn earth, he has stayed twice as long isn't it?" I asked sarcastically as Ian's expression turned cold."You know, in times like these you shouldn't act like a total bitch, you are supposed to be wise with your words." He spat.I glared at him and shifted my gaze to Amelia who was approaching me with a glass of whisky.She was about to hand it to me when Chase got it from her hand with a smile."What are you doing right now?" I asked in nearly a whisper."Bite down." He answered."What?" I asked, confused over what he
Chase's p.o.v"Are you certain that the Alpha king is still in his territory?" Alpha Ian asked seriously.I let go of Amelia's hand and nodded."I am very certain Alpha Ian. I have never been wrong when it comes to tracking someone's whereabouts." I answered honestly.He sighed in relief then sat down in his chair with a wide smile."That's great news." He whispered softly."What the fuck Ian, It's not great news. It means we should still keep our guard up and work quickly. Don't you find it odd that the bastard is still in his territory when he is obsessed with having an Alpha queen by his side?" Felix asked seriously.She really had a point, I too was wondering about that."It is, that's why I still have my guard up, what I meant by relief was that it puts my mate at ease and gives me more time to address my pack with what's going on." He answered."Fine." She answered then sat upright in her seat."Are you spending the night here?" Alpha Ian asked calmly."No, we are going back hom
