ログインIsla's POV Today was the day of the ceremony. I stood in front of the mirror as Samantha's maids arranged the gown that had been sent to my room. The colour was horrible, and the design was even worse. I hated everything about it, but I had no choice but to wear it. I had bigger things to worry about. Yesterday, Elvis discovered that I was pregnant. After everything I had done to hide it, someone had finally betrayed me. And knowing Elvis, I couldn't imagine what he intended to do with my children. He had already made it clear that he wanted to keep them for himself. He planned to raise them to serve the children he intended to have, treating my babies as nothing more than slaves.The thought made my stomach turn. “So, you've been hiding your pregnancy from me all along?” His voice made me freeze.I turned around and found Elvis standing by the doorway. His expression was cold, and there was something unsettling about the way he looked at my stomach. I instinctively shifted ba
Alex’s POV When we finally reached the Lion Beast Clan's territory, the first thing I noticed was the silence. It was unusually quiet. There were no warriors patrolling the outer grounds, no servants moving about, and barely any activity around the main entrance. It felt like they were expecting us.I raised my hand, signalling my men to slow down. Something wasn't right.Before I could give another instruction, warriors emerged from different directions, attacking us from all sides. “Stay together! Don't let them surround you!” I shouted, drawing my weapon. The fighting began almost immediately. Lion Beast warriors rushed towards us, their attacks fierce and coordinated. But we had prepared for this possibility. Thankfully, Kelvin had managed to send us a message before we left. He had warned us that Elvis knew something was happening and that a large number of warriors might be waiting for us. Because of that information, I divided our forces into two groups, sending some to app
Alex’s POVI had to move as quickly as possible. Time was running out, and I couldn't afford to waste another moment.By now, Austin must have heard what happened to the warriors Elvis sent to reinforce him. He would know that most of them had been intercepted, and I doubted he would sit back and wait for another attack. He could strike at any moment.Liam and Daimen were already working together to prepare our soldiers for battle. The Tiger Beast warriors were also getting ready, training alongside our werewolves and sharing what they knew about countering Silia weapons.We needed every advantage we could get.I walked through the training grounds, watching the warriors prepare. Some were checking their weapons, while others practised their formations. The atmosphere was tense, but nobody seemed willing to back down.Genny and Maria had also begun getting along after discovering their connection to each other. I was relieved to see them putting their differences aside. Genny had alre
Isla's POVThe ceremony was only two days away.Every time I thought about it, my stomach tightened. Elvis had made his decision, and nothing I said seemed capable of changing his mind. He intended to introduce me as his mate before the entire Lion Beast Clan, and he was determined to make sure I had nowhere to run, but that wasn't what worried me most.The warriors Elvis had sent to Austin's territory were returning today. I heard the news from one of the servants, along with the report that their group had been ambushed. Only a few had managed to reach the werewolf pack.Elvis was furious, I knew he would be. He had expected those warriors to strengthen Austin's forces, not return defeated. Unfortunately, instead of accepting that his plans had failed, he was taking his anger out on the lowborn Beast Clans.The female members of those clans who had been kept as slaves suffered the worst. Elvis treated them as though they were his possessions, forcing them to serve him and endure his
Alex’s POV Liam came rushing into my office, his expression serious. “Alpha, some Lion Beast warriors have been spotted heading towards Austin’s pack territory.” I looked up from the documents on my desk. I had known Elvis would make his move sooner or later, but I hadn't expected things to happen this quickly. It was clear he was preparing to strengthen Austin’s forces, and that could only mean more trouble for us. “Have we confirmed how many warriors?” I asked. “Not yet, but we're keeping an eye on their movements.” I leaned back in my chair, trying to consider our next move. We couldn't afford to let Austin gain more strength, especially with the threat of another attack hanging over our borders. Thankfully, Genny had made some progress. Her magic had helped us develop a temporary way to defend against the Silia weapons. It wasn't a perfect solution, but it gave us a fighting chance. Still, I knew we couldn't depend on it forever. We needed a permanent way to counter Silia
Isla’s POV That night, Elvis decided to punish Malik for embarrassing him in front of the entire army. He ordered his warriors to take Malik away and deal with him. From the way he spoke, I knew he intended to make an example of his younger brother, reminding him that winning one fight didn't mean he was free to challenge his authority but I had already anticipated something like this. Before the warriors could carry out their orders, I gave Yona a small bottle containing a specially prepared herbal mixture. “Apply this to your skin before they come,” I instructed her. “The scent should be strong enough to affect anyone who gets too close. It won't hurt them, but it should make them lose their strength and consciousness for a while.” Yona stared at the bottle, looking uncertain. “Are you sure this will work?” I nodded. “I've used similar herbs before. Just make sure you don't apply too much, and stay away from the room once the scent begins spreading.” She thanked me b
