Cayden's Pov

My dad, the so-called Alpha, was seated on his high seat, with his face obscured behind the shadows.

“I suppose you enjoyed your time away from us?” Clyde, my elder brother said.

“Of course, who would want to be with you? Your wife left you for an impotent Beta. An impotent one.”

“You bastard,” Clyde cursed, his face dark like coal.

“Bastard? Are you trying to say that Father is at fault? Clyde, I know you have always hated me, but don't you dare insult our father's dignity or, rat

    Carmen's povI stepped out of the hall amidst all the cheering and happiness. The moment I stepped out of the hall, my communicator rang violently.Silas.I stared at the glowing screen for a second before answering.The call connected and then came the furious shouts. “What happened over there? How come, Cayden is out there being called the Alpha, what did you do? You crazy woman.”“Silas,” I immediately softened my voice and my expression even though he could not see me. “Nothing happened,” I said quietly. “I just went to…to the museum, I saw a painting of our baby, our baby Silas, he was there. He wants me to come stay with him, I think I want to stay here to look after our baby.”Silence!The line went dead for almost a minute leading me to suspect Silas may have hung up on me.“You foolish woman,” Silas exploded. I pulled the communicator away from my ear lest my eardrums risked getting damaged. “Do you even have a brain? You went there with a mission but you… you know what?

  • The Barren Luna’s Revenge; Dear Ex, Your Only Heir Is Mine   Chapter 29

    Carmen's POVThe atmosphere inside the trail grounds turned explosive after Sarah's declaration. The fragile balance that had briefly favoured Caude disappeared instantly, leaving the entire arena hanging on uncertainty once again.Two generals for him, two generals against him.Whispers spread like wildfire through the crowd while nobles engaged nervous glances. No one expected just a simple voting session to spiral this far.Sarah stood proudly after her declaration, her face still coated in rage and anger at her rejection.Unexpectedly, though, Jaime stood up from the ground, stared at Cayden for a while before he gave Sarah a weird look.“Are you stupid? If you are, at times like this, pretend to have some sense,” he scoffed at Sarah.“What did you say?” Sarah asked, her face more of surprise than of anger.Yes! What did Jaime say? We all knew that Jaime despised Cayden, he had always teased Cayden, even now, he was the reason Cayden took out the parchment in the first place.Now,

  • The Barren Luna’s Revenge; Dear Ex, Your Only Heir Is Mine   Chapter 28

    Carmen's POVThe walk back to the museum was painfully silent. Cayden seemed so lost in thoughts, but for some reason, it felt like he was subtly protecting me, by always being a step behind me.We finally reached the end of our mentally draining journey, to see the guards already stationed, waiting for us.“The council has begun.” One of the guards announced loudly, his eye still on Cayden.I frowned immediately. “They started without him?” The guards lowered their heads awkwardly, it seemed even then they knew there was something weird going on.“They just started, the Voss family first ordered us to announce it, then the royal family and the others just had to follow suit.” The Voss family?Was Sarah already trying to push Cayden to decide? She truly wanted to control Cayden.I took a deep breath, never had I ever met such an ambitious lady in my entire life. She did not even care about her own marital happiness, just eager to prove a point.That she could rule over an Alpha meant

    Cayden's POVThe light swallowed me whole. One moment, I was right there in the celestial realm with my mother, and the next, the bright spots gathered around my body like fireflies and carried me off against my will.Mother's figure blurred at the edges, her smile trembled with sadness. As she lifted a hand toward me, all I could hear was her distant voice.“Carmen's baby should not be touched.”“The child is a prophecy…and a reckoning.” Everything shattered. It was just like a dream I didn't want to believe happened.I gasped violently as my eyes snapped open. My knees were in pain as they hit the cold floor. Sweat drenched both my shirt, and my chest. I gasped for air, and was breathing unevenly, as if I had just been fished out of water.The parchment was beside me, with its edges burned black, and a clear message that it cannot be used to transport me to my mother again.Carmen, who stood a few feet away, stared at me shocked. I could see her wide-open mouth as she gazed at me.

    Cayden's POVCarmen stared at me with an unknown emotion that filled her eyes.“Is marrying Sarah the only way for you, right now?” I nodded slowly, though uncertainty twisted inside me.“At this point, maybe it is the only way.” At least, that was what kept coming up in my mind. My thoughts, however, were still trapped in a far more disturbing truth. Carmen's pregnancy.Even until now, the possibility refused to settle properly in my head. It felt unreal, so unreal.Carmen had been barren for a long time, so how come she had a child? The more alarming fact was the fact that she looked the same, and did not radiate a pregnancy scent.If the museum had not exposed her for a brief moment, I would have been led astray with the others until she probably gave birth to that baby.Carmen sighed for a moment before she pushed towards a particular portrait. My eyes froze as I saw the portrait. It was the portrait of my mother as she took a headshot.“Her face had always been flawless, but up

    Cayden's PovThe words of Sarah pushed me to my limit, my claws extended from my nails in rage.I dug my hands into my palm to stop my anger and regain my senses.A commotion distracted Sarah as her gaze shifted to the dining hall. I also looked over, a familiar scent warted over my nostrils.Carmen!She wore a long flowing purple gown, the shiny pearls in her gown seemed to radiate the glow of the moonlight.She looked every bit like a Luna. A wonderful one. And she was pretty.I had no idea how that thought came into my mind but I let it remain there.She arrived with Silas and they already had a problem with others, really?Silas really was not born with the gift of silence. He had already spoken enough carp with a loud voice that I could hear him clearly.I was not even there but the words that I heard irritated me, not to mention the short-tempered Jaime.“Shall we take a look?” Sarah asked me as she stood up. Clearly, she was not even asking.A sign of domination and I had not e
