CHAPTER 9.Megan’s POV. I thought I was dead because the last thing I remembered was the feeling of drowning, the world slipping away from me. The pain I had felt before I fell unconscious wasn’t left out. But as I opened my eyes, The rays of the moon shone brightly on my face, causing me to blink rapidly. I gasped loudly when I noticed how long I stayed unconscious. I was knocked out in the evening….and it’s late at night now. I had to readjust myself on the bed, and I groaned slightly when I felt pains all over. Then the blurry image of Khalid saving me surfaced in my mind, and a sharp pain accompanied the memory.“Why did he save me?” I rolled my eyes, completely confused by the fact that he saved me. The fact that Khalid saved me was shocking because it was obvious that he hated me, so he could have just let me die peacefully. I breathed deeply and looked around the room, with wonder!I wondered how I managed to get here, and who must have brought me here. My heart beat i
Chapter 10. Khalid’s POV. I sighed deeply as I quickly left my room, and went straight to the room I had laid her earlier, just to meet an empty room. I glanced at the bed, and also met it empty. Not only that, but I quickly turned and ordered the maid to get a guard for me. I was shocked and scared to the extent that I couldn’t move. I froze on my spot, still looking around in shock. “Why did she go?” I couldn’t help but ask myself. I was still lost in thoughts that I didn’t know when the guard suddenly appeared. “Your highness,” He called loudly, and I jolted back to reality, facing him instantly. “You sent for me,” He added, and I nodded quickly. “Get the rest of the guards ready, and find her now!!” I ordered, and he looked at me confusingly. I was so worried about Megan, that I got easily pissed at that moment. “What is it?” I asked the moment I noticed that he still stood there, probably waiting for a more detailed explanation. “What are you waiting for?” I barked a
Chapter 11Khalid’s POV. Before she fainted, I felt something….An overwhelming connection between us during her transformation. I couldn't help but feel the powerful connection between us, like an electric current pulsing through my veins. It was more like a bond between us, and I stared at her in shock. My heart raced as I made the split-second decision to knock out the wolf, which was already berserk. I knew I needed to do it to make her free….Megan was tired, and she fainted due to the pains she went through, so knocking out the wolf was the right thing I needed to do that instant. In a swift move, I landed a firm blow, causing the massive beast to collapse, transforming back into the woman he had just been with moments ago. Megan!As I caught my breath, I began to perceive something!A familiar scent! I looked around desperate to know where the scent was coming from, but to my shock and surprise—it was coming from Megan. The scent of the man I have been searching for all
Chapter 12Aaron’s POV. I sat on a chair all alone in my large office, as my eyes darted to the clock which was hung at the corner of the office. I yawned loudly and suddenly the stone necklace I wore on my neck glowed brightly before it broke into pieces and disappeared from my view, making me gasp in shock. I froze on a spot as I felt my eyes widen.....“There’s no way this could happen!” I clenched my fists tightly as I stared at the spot the pieces fell on the floor, before it disappeared. “Where was she?” “Who did this?” I asked no one in particular. “So the seal has been broken?” I smirked, as I played with my fingers absentmindedly. I didn’t need anyone to tell me that the seal I had put on my adopted daughter had been broken. I had put the seal on her so her real self could be hidden from her, and so she doesn’t find out who exactly she was. Just for the necklace in which I hid the seal to be broken!“So everything I’ve hidden for years—has just been revealed,” I thoug
CHAPTER 13KHALID’S POV. I furrowed my brows as I stared at the Physician. I was obviously confused and surprised by what he said.“How come there are other things I don’t know?” I couldn’t help but ask myself, as I sighed slowly. “Why are you hiding the truth from me in the first place, when you know it’s still related to me,” I said, frowning, and he simply shrugged. “You need not be faster than your shadows, your highness….” He said slyly, as I stared at him intently. He chuckled and continued, “You managed to figure out the most important things yourself….so whenever the time is right, you’ll figure things out yourself,” The was Physician explained, but I was not having it. “What does he mean?” “That I sit quietly and watch things go haywire while I do nothing?” I spat angrily, and he breathed deeply, and began to pack his bags. That was when I paid attention to him and noticed that he was done treating Megan and she slept peacefully.A light smile crept on my face as I s
CHAPTER 14Author’s POV. “What?” They all gasped in shock, staring at Khalid intently. Khalid just sighed and walked towards his seat, with his head bowed. “What did you just say, your highness?” They asked in unison, and Khalid simply sighed. “You heard me, she’s my mate!” Khalid groaned annoyingly. “I can’t believe this, you may have possibly said this just to make her stay here,” One of the Elders said and Khalid clenched his fists tightly. Khalid stood up and opened his mouth to talk when a maid bathed into the meeting room. He swiftly faced her, with his eyes blazing with fury!“What are you doing here?” Khalid asked as he breathed in anger, his fists were clenched tightly. “I’m sorry your highness, but I came to inform you that Miss Megan has regained consciousness,” She said with her head bowed, and just like a magic, the anger on his face dissipated. “What did you just say?” Alpha Khalid asked sharply, and the maid kept mute because she knew he had heard her. “Are yo
CHAPTER 15Megan’s POV. I widened my eyes in shock, freezing instantly. I was unable to pull out, or move backwards…so I just stood still wondering what was happening. I noticed Khalid widen his eyes, and he quickly pulled out and turned his face sideways in embarrassment. “I’m sorry…” He muttered, and I turned to glance at him. “You almost slipped, and I wanted to save you, but I didn’t know.....” He trailed off, and I breathed deeply. I turned and walked back to the bed, as I sat slowly. Different thoughts rummaged my mind, and I couldn’t help but facepalm myself. I was going through a lot already, and what just happened added to my shock. “I know I’ve always admired and loved Khalid…but what just happened wasn’t right,” I thought as I heaved deeply. “It’s fine…” I managed to break the silence, and that was when he looked up to glance at me. I flashed him a light smile, which he returned and walked back to the seat he sat on earlier. “Are you ready to talk now?” I suddenly
CHAPTER 16Khalid’s POV. We stared at ourselves in shock, but it was until the knock came again that we were able to regain our composure. “Come in,” I ordered, and the door opened just for Alexis to appear with a small smile on her face. I creased my brows, and quickly turned to glance at Megan to see her widen her eyes in shock. “I’m sorry, just leave me alone,” Megan began to apologize as she shifted backwards in fright. That was when I knew that Alexis had managed to instill fear in Megan, and it made me boil in anger “I’m not a spy please,” She pleaded with a sad look, as she folded her hands begging Alexis with a sincere look. I just couldn’t behold the sight anymore, and I clasped my hands together making sure it made a loud noise, and that was when Megan managed to calm down. “What are you doing here?” I asked coldly, facing Alexis swiftly. “Your highness...” She started by going on her knees and I furrowed my brows. “I just came to apologize, I’m really sorry...” She
