Melissa's POV

“Mom?” I called out as I stepped into my mother's room, but I was only met with silence. The room was strangely quiet, the bed neatly made and that would only mean that she didn't sleep here last night, because if she did, the bed wouldn't still be made up by this time.

My heart sank! Where was she? I've searched every corner of the house, but she was nowhere to be found, not even in the garden, her favorite spot in the pack house.

For the umpteenth time, I pulled out my phone and dialed her number again, but I was greeted with the same automated messages: ‘The number you are trying to reach is unavailable.”

I've been trying to reach her through the mind link too, but it's not going through.

My chest tightened. Something was wrong somewhere. I could feel it in my bones. None of the maids have agreed to seeing her. Not even Laura.

Just where the hell could she be?

Taking a deep breath, I stepped out of her room and into the hallway, my mind still racing wi

    Zariel's POV “What have you done, Zariel?” Talia asked through gritted teeth as soon as I picked her call and I creased my brows in confusion, wondering what she meant. “Hey, Talia? What do you mean by that?” “Zade's company is on fire. I just saw the news a while ago. Was it you? Did you set his company on fire because of your stupid anger and hatred towards him? Tell me you didn't do something this reckless, this insane” A frown crept its way to my face. “What do you mean by that? What are you talking about” “Cut the pretense and answer the fucking question. Did you set his company on fire?” She snapped. “And why would I do that? Why would I do such a thing?” I asked, confusion clearly written all over my face. Where was all these baseless accusations coming from? “You are the only one who would have the nerves to do such a thing. You are the only stupid enemy that he has. You wanted him dead after all. Setting his company on fire wouldn't be a big deal for you” She hissed

    Zade's POV “I don't have time to figure that out right now, Mother. I need to get to the company right away. Stay here. Keep an eye on the pack till I get back. Keep Lenora safe.” She nodded, her eyes filled with worry. “Go son. I'll handle things here. Stay safe for me, please” I didn't wait for another word. I bolted out of the door, my heart racing in my chest like a stampede. Different thoughts ran through my mind as I walked towards the garage. How many workers were in the building? How bad is the damage? Who's responsible for this damage? I had two guesses; Zariel and those conniving elders. I couldn't help but feel that the person responsible for the fire outbreak was Zariel, my brother, who was also my rival and my enemy. He'd stop at nothing to claim the throne, to destroy me. And if I find out that this is his doing, I'd make him regret ever crossing me. I've always known that Zariel would do anything to get the throne. He would do anything to get to me. I'm gon

  • The Rise Of The Betrayed Luna   Did I interrupt something?

    Zade’s POV I pulled out my phone, my fingers hovering over the screen as I prepared to dial my Beta's number. But before I could, the device buzzed in my hand and his name flashed across the screen. “Alpha.” He called out. “I'm currently at the company, but I can't find you.” “Meet me at the east wing.” I commanded and without waiting for a response, I ended the call. In a few minutes, he appeared before me. His eyes locked on the ruins, his jaw tightening as his fists clenched into a ball. “Who the fuck is responsible for this?” He growled in a low voice. “Zariel,” I replied curtly and he gritted his teeth in anger, his nostrils flaring. “That punk!” Karl snarled, his voice rising in anger. “How could he be so reckless? He knew there were people inside!” His fists clenched at his sides. He did nothing to hide his urge to strike out. “I'll kill him. I'll fucking kill him myself.” “That's the plan, Karl” I chirped in. “I've let him live too long. This time, there's no mercy.

    Lenora’s POV “Please, Lenora, you have to listen to me….” Zade pleaded, his hand reaching out as he took two steps towards me. His eyes were pleading but I wasn't having it. I took two steps backward, my heart pounding hard in my chest. “Don't” I snapped, my voice filled with a mix of anger and hurt. Don't come any closer, Zade. Go back to your lover. I won't bother you anymore.” I said through gritted teeth as I continued moving backwards. I couldn't believe what I just saw. There he was, standing in the middle of a chaos like this, his arms wrapped around her…. Talia. His ex. The one he swore meant nothing to him anymore. And here I was, at home, pacing around the house like a worried wife, worrying myself sick over my mate and how he was taking the news of the fire outbreak. When his mother told me about the fire outbreak, I didn't even think twice before telling her that I wanted to come meet him, to comfort him like the good wife I was. She had even asked me to stay b

    Zade's POV“What the hell have you done?” I snarled. My fists clenched at my sides as I stormed toward the man who had rushed out of the car. His face had gone pale, his hands trembling as he raised them in an attempt to pacify me. "I'm sorry." He pleaded but I scoffed. If only he knows that nothing would calm the raging storm within me. He had hit her. My mate. My woman. “I swear to the moon god, it wasn't my fault. I didn't see her coming.” He stammered, but I didn't let him finish. I shot him a glare that was enough to silent him and he snapped his mouth shut, shrinking back as if he could hide from me. “Pray to whatever god you believe in that she's okay,” I hissed in anger. “Because if she's not, I swear, I'll rip you apart with my bare hands.” He exhaled slowly, his breath shaky. It was filled with fear, but I didn't care one bit. My focus was on her, the one fragile figure lying almost motionless on the ground, her chest rising and falling in uneven breaths. My eyes

    Lenora's POV My eyes fluttered open and I found myself lying on a bed. The walls of the room were white and the room was filled with the scent of antiseptic and at once I knew that I was in a hospital. Wait a minute! How did I end up here? The only thing I remembered was going to Zade's company to meet him, immediately Luna Ophelia told me about the tragedy. Then I remembered coming to the company to see him hugging his ex-girlfriend, the one person he had sworn that he had nothing to do with. Anger washed over me immediately that image flashed in my head and even though I didn't want to be angry, I couldn't. How could he do such a thing? Hugging his ex girlfriend while I was at home worrying my ass about him. “Relax, Lenora. You just got out of treatment. You should rest.” Zoey chided me softly and I creased my brows in confusion. “What treatment, Zoey? How did I end up here?” I asked her, because I knew that she was the only one who would give me the answers that I needed.

    Lenora's POV “I don't know you. Leave me the hell alone or I'll have my mate throw you out of this hospital. I won't repeat myself” I snapped at Zade, my voice laced with irritation, though it was feigned. Jeremy took two steps forward. His tone was calm but firm. “Please, just leave her alone. She doesn't want to talk to you” “Shut the fuck up!” He hissed, but Jeremy didn't flinch. “I'm sorry I can't leave here. She's my mate and I have to stay with her.” He answered. I couldn't help the small smile that crept its way to my face. He's doing fine. Just how I wanted him to. “Fuck off!” “No, man. She is….” But before he could say more, Zade grabbed his arm, twisting it painfully behind his back. “The next time you cross me, I'll break your legs.” Jeremy winced, as he struggled against Zade's iron grip. “Let him go.” I yelled at the top of my voice, but Zade ignored me. Instead he tightened his hold on Jeremy, who let out a pained gasp. Jeremy on his part yelped in pain.

    Axel's POV “Do whatever you can to save my son!” I yelled at the nurses who had been attending to Melissa. It's been a day since we came to this godforsaken hospital and the doctors kept telling me she might not make it. “We can save your wife, but your son…..” one of the nurses began, her voice trembling with fear. “I won't repeat myself!” I snapped, thereby cutting her off. She flinched and scurried away, leaving me to pace the waiting room like a wounded bull, waiting for some good news. “Relax, Alpha. I'm sure she'll pull through.” Derek said in a calm tone. It sounded almost soothing, but I shot him a glare. “And who said I cared about Melissa? My fucking concern is my son. I don't want to lose him.” I spat, my tone sharp enough to make him recoil. A startled gasp escaped his lips as his eyes went wide with shock, but he didn't dare to say anything. He just continued to stare at me. “You may haven't noticed yet, Derek, but I don't give a damn about Melissa. I don't ca

    Zariel's Point Of View A sharp knock sounded on the door and before I could leave the couch to go see who it was, the door creaked open, the sound echoing through the room. And immediately, I stood on alert, in case it was Darag's or any of his dogs. I know for sure that they wouldn't let me off easily after what Karl had done to them. They'll definitely want to get their revenge. I quickly snatched one of the daggers from the table as I tiptoed to the door. I have to be very careful. “Who the fuck is there?” I called out in a loud growl even though I was filled with nothing but fear. Raw fear. “It's me.” The voice came up. I was taken aback by the familiar voice and very quickly I put away the dagger, relief flooded through my body to know that it wasn't the people that I was expecting. I guess I was scared for nothing. “Talia?” I called, but I was met with only silence. My pulse quickened as I hurried toward the door, but I froze at the scene before me. She was sprawled ac

    Melissa's Point Of View “Now that Alpha Axel is out of our way, Melissa, don't you think we should have some fun?” Damien's voice sounded behind me and I gritted my teeth in anger. How on earth did I forget to lock the doors? I'd told myself that I'll never forget to close my door so he doesn't come in, but here we are. Why do I have to be so careless for heaven's sake? “Get out!” I hissed through gritted teeth and the next minute, he burst into laughter. “And why should I, huh?” “Please don't make me repeat myself, Damien. Get out of here.” My hand paused on the quilt that I was knitting. I swear to god, if he doesn't leave my room right away, I'll stab him with the knitting pin in my hands and I mean every bit of it. “This wasn't our agreement, Melissa!” He spat, but I let out a derisive scoff. Indeed this wasn't our agreement. We had agreed that as soon as Alpha Axel leaves for the Alpha's Summit, we'll have a great time together. But did he really think that I meant it?

    Lenora's Point Of View “I'll miss you.” I pouted as Zade got ready for his journey ahead. Today was a new day and hence the day he is going for the Alpha's Summit. I had expected that we'll spend the day alone, but who was I kidding? As much as I wanted him to stay with me, I could not stop him from leaving. His hand paused on the buttons of his suits as he came to sit on the bed beside me. “Do you want me to stay with you?” He asked, but I shook my head. “No, Zade. I can't stop you from fulfilling your duty as Alpha.” I said in a soft but firm voice. No matter how much I wanted him to stay with me, I CAN'T stop him from leaving and I meant it. “And I want you to know that nothing is as important as you. I really don't mind changing my mind about attending the Summit and spending the day with you.” I know that he wasn't bluffing. But at the same time, I can't stop him from attending it, especially as it was an important event. One that will benefit him greatly. He might want

    Princess Lara's Point Of View Slap!!! “Do you really think that you can run away from your fate?” My father growled as his hands landed on my face for the umpteenth time. I can't remember how I ended up here, but what I vividly remember was the fact that I was caught by my father's watch dogs just as I was trying to leave. Man, I had thought that no one had seen me when I was leaving, but I guess I was wrong. Someone had seen me and I needed no soothsayer to tell me that it was Morana. She must have noticed my disappearance and had alerted my father's guards to find me. “I wasn't trying to leave, father!” I hissed through gritted teeth. My cheeks burned from where he had slapped me, but I wasn't willing to let him know how much it affected me. I wasn't willing to let him see the pain in my eyes and it was because that bitch was with him. Like I always say, the last thing I wanted to do was to give her the satisfaction of seeing me hurt. She was even smirking like someone who

    Lenora's POV He wanted me. With each pass of my hands, I grew rougher, edging closer to his cock, teasing him just enough to make him squirm. I wanted to feel him leap into my touch, to crave it. Slowly, I increased the pressure, until I finally wrapped my fist around him, feeling the heat radiating as he twitched in anticipation. His cock stiffened in my palm, and the dampness between my thighs mirrored the intensity of his growing need. My lips pressed against his neck in time with every stroke, tasting his skin as his breathing became ragged. I quickened my pace, my fingers curling tighter around his length. His moans deepened, growing louder with each squeeze, the tension building with every deliberate stroke.“Fuck!!!” He jutted while he leaned into my touch. He seemed to want more, so I decided to give it. I pressed my hand against his sternum to steady him. “Stay like this,” I whispered as he lay there on his back, cock standing to attention as if saluting me. His breathin

Thanks and have a blessed Sunday) ******* Lenora's POV “I want you.” I whispered in Zade's ears as soon as we got to his penthouse, the one he had prepared for our honeymoon. I love the fact that we weren't spending our honeymoon at the pack house. At least we get to do whatever we want. A blush crept up my cheeks as I thought about my last words. ‘Whatever we want’. “What do you mean?” Zade asked, his brows furrowed slightly. I needed no soothsayer to tell me that he knew what I meant. He clearly wanted me to spell it out. Two can play this game after all. “I’m willing to show you what I mean.” I cooed, while my eyes narrowed in determination. Zade took a measured breath and looked me up and down. He knew what I meant, but I reworded it, just in case. “In case you need a little clarification…” I pushed forward, so we were chest to chest, and I peered

    Princess Lara's Point Of View It's either now or never. I can't let my father dictate my life for me. I have someone I love and I won't let him ship me like I'm some goods to a beast like Alpha Zade. “Relax, Lara. You shouldn't call him a beast yet. You haven't had any dealings with him.” Lyra said to me, but I rolled my eyes. “Trust me, Lyra, he's a beast. No one has ever come in contact with him and survived it. He is.” “Well, you wouldn't say that unless someone had. So relax. He might not even be as bad as you painted him.” “I don't care to know, Lyra. I can't get married to him. I have to leave.” “Come on, Lara, don't do something that you are gonna regret later.” she pleaded, but I turned deaf ears to her pleas and before I could help it, I bolted for the door. But that was the worst mistake I've ever made in my life, because the next minute, I felt a sharp pain in my neck. I needed no soothsayer to tell me that it was my father. “Your Majesty….”“Where do you think y

    Talia's Point Of View I didn’t know how long I’d been out, but the sound of knocking jerked me awake. I sat up too fast, and a sharp pain shot through my head. Wincing, I grabbed my temples, in an effort to alleviate the pain, but it did nothing to help the pain. I gazed around the room trying to recall how I ended up here and almost immediately, the memories hit me like a wave. I gritted my teeth in anger. That bitch! She had come to my house some hours ago, and pretended to want to talk to me, yet she had drugged me and dragged me here. I'll never forgive her for this. I need to get out of here, but how? I quickly stared around the room, trying to find any object that I'll use to hit whoever comes in. Thanks, I found a hockey stick and very quickly, I hid it under the pillows. I don't care who is gonna come in, but I'll hit them. I don't care if it's gonna be Kathryn. After all, that bitch deserved to die. She has done more than enough already. She has hurt me more t
