Arnold POV This morning that I have been dreading so much finally arrived, my heart clenched up with the thought of never seeing my mate or child again unless from a far distance.After stripping off my duvet, I dragged my tired body into the shower and began my morning routine. When I was dressed decently enough to go outside, I called some of my servants so that they would help my mate in packing anything she needed.But I was met with shock when I came to her doorstep, the door itself was open revealing that there was nobody in her room.I went in to check everywhere, even the shower but she wasn't in there either."Millie?" I called her name almost helplessly then I heard a response behind me, but it wasn't her."Tanya?" I hissed as I turned around to face the woman that had cheated on me with my best friend at what was supposed to be our mating ceremony."What are you doing here?"As always she was sparingly dressed, with an early-morning attire that revealed more than
Mildred POV"Help!" I screamed at the top of my voice and I could hear the driver beginning to chuckle."So you think that will work?" He said with a nasty snicker on his lips."I already told you that this place is deserted or are you daft maybe?" He said with mock curiosity as he tilted his head."I am not daft, which is why I will not fold my hands and allow you to kidnap me…"I said with determination and he just laughed throwing his head back on the car seat and tightening his grip on the wheels so much that I could see his veins popping out."I have to say…" he began as his absurd laughter was finally fading away."Arnold has the most interesting taste in women…"I froze up where I sat, even though I had noticed a strong kinship between all of them in their pack I had been quick to notice that people didn't normally call him by his name, at least not without his title tagging behind.And this man did it so naturally."Who..who are you?" I said unable to hide the dread in my voice
Mildred POV"You b*tch!" One of them hissed at me and the next thing I knew I was struck right across the face living in nasty things as a souvenir on my face.But that was not enough to keep me silent even though my voice was muffled. I continued to scream against that filthy hard and wiggle my body like a warm trying to escape from their grasp.Tears were pooling up in the corner of my eyes as the situation began to sink into my mind. The man that had been driving me to the airport must still be preoccupied with that log of wood that I suspected these savages must have thrown on the road.By the time he realized I had been taken, they would have probably gotten me far.And this place was deserted anyways so if he wasn't coming for me then nobody was…they were soon irritated by my tears trickling on their hands and began to swear and hit me across my face but I didn't care as long as they didn't hit my unborn baby in me."Hurry up!The world around me seemed to be spinning and soon I
Mildred POVI was too emotional to even speak, so with the tears of relief bubbling in my eyes I buried my face in his chest and he hugged me close.The scent of rain filled my nostrils when he hugged me…how was that possible?"Close your eyes, Millie…" his tone made it sound like both a command and a plea at the same time."You don't want to see this…"He said as he spun around and the last thing I saw before I complied with his request was him shifting into that big wolf again. My eyes were closed but my ears could still hear their screams and the cracking of bones until there was finally silence."Arnold?"I called out my voice shaking a little bit, then suddenly I felt his hands wrapped around picking me up and I was covered in his warmth and that beautiful scent.But now it was mixed with blood."You came for me….why?"I asked him as I gently opened up my eyes."Well because you called for me…I wasn't sure at first but I just decided to trust my instincts and I'm glad that I did…
Arnold POVMy heart was naturally pricked with concern when her voice felt like that and I came closer to our laying down so I would be able to hear every single word that came out of her lips."What do you mean something is wrong with the baby?" I said almost breathlessly the concern inside of me overwhelming me.When I had decided to follow the voice, I was able to find her, and I was able to kill all of those rogues that dared to leave their filthy hand on my mate.But I noticed that one was already dead before I came there, and the others I had killed were practically luckier he looked as if he has been run over by a bus several times his bones broken and twisted at unnatural angles, and yet they were no external bruise or cuts meaning that somebody had it just crushed him without a fight.But there was nobody to explain that death, it could have not been the other savages fought and killed in a vulgar way. And while I could say they were not the most loyal group at the same time
Mildred POVI woke up the next morning filled with excitement for the new day as I stretched my hands above my head and then they fell down to the side of the bed where Arnold was supposed to be but he wasn't there and a scene of dread washed over me."Arnold?" I called out and then his deep soothing voice penetrated my ears."Millie?" I followed his voice over to the window where he stood, shirtless and smiling at me."Good morning…" he greeted walking over to me and then he left a kiss on my head which let me release a sigh of relief."Is something wrong?" He asked as he sat on the bed facing me.I chuckled."Nothing, it's just silly." I had actually thought that yesterday was just a dream and maybe I was in California all alone by myself.Thinking about that was able to scare me more than the kidnapping that happened to me yesterday.I was almost kidnapped yesterday the memories began to flood into my mind, sending shivers down my skin as I looked at Arnold."So how long do you thi
Mildred POVThe guardian gave me the rules of the cave of answers. It could answer any question, but there were many risks to it.I was strictly told that the cave knew the answer to almost everything including my deepest desires and it was going to take advantage of that, but I was not supposed to be swayed by that. All I was supposed to do was ask my questions and leave.Also, the last rule, I had only two hours to finish everything.Arnold was not happy about my decision in the slightest and as I was getting ready, I could see the frustration in his eyes. I was dressed in a flowing off-white gown so that my movement would not be hindered and my hair was pulled into a tight bun.As I was finishing up the bun, I saw the unhappy reflection of Arnold and I knew that he wasn't upset at me but, his helplessness in this situation, he said that he would have really come to the cave of answers himself, but he had already gone there before and nobody was allowed to go twice.It was also so d
I sat up in a moment, staring straight at the woman that was caressing my hair while wearing the face of my mother. My fingers sunk into a soft duvet and I realized that I was on a bed.The woman was smiling at me even though I was gazing at her awkwardly and I didn't really know how else I was supposed to look at her."Who are you?" I asked impulsively. "How did I get here? Why am I no longer in the cave of answers?" The woman just stared at me as if I was growing a horn on the other side of my head, then she smiled, understanding, and patted me."My poor daughter must be stressed out now because of all the work she does. Maybe you should stay home today and rest?"I shivered away from the woman's touch. As far as I knew, my mother was gone, so who was this person that was wearing her face and her appearance and speaking to me?But that was not the only surprise that I had as I placed my hand on my stomach feeling this twisted sense of hunger. I realized that my stomach was now com
