CHAPTER 8
Killian's POV “My Alpha, the men sent to deliver the supplies to the pack warriors were attacked by rogues at the river.” Beta Nightfury reported. I stood by the window, gazing outside. "One of the men returned with the report, he said they were about twenty-four of them, and they had their faces covered up.” “And the supplies?” “They were taken.” Beta Nightfury replied. I nodded subtly and turned walking towards him. “Find out about these rogues. I want them caught. Take the fool who returned alive with you. He should assist you in finding those rogues." I ordered. Beta Nightfury nodded and gave a slight bow before walking out. Lilliana walked in few minutes later, she wrapped her hands behind me hugging me tightly. ”Your face look strained, what's making you worried?“ She asked. I sighed out loudly, ” Our men were attacked, and the supplies were taken. I want to find those rogues so bad and crush them into pieces.“ my fist tightened. Lilliana smiled, her palm on my tightened fist. ”You should take a deep breath and relax. My father will take care of these rogues I'm sure of it." I believed in the capabilities of Beta Nightfury but the rogues were becoming nuisances with each passing day. I stared at Lilliana licking my lower lip, she chuckled wrapping her arm round my neck as well. I took her lips, savoring every corner of her mouth. My hands slipped under her dress and just as expected, she wasn't putting on any panties. We moved to the bed. She moaned and begged for me to fuck her as I worked her clit. ****** Lilliana pulled the blanket over her. She threw her legs over the bed picking her half shredded gown. The gown could barely cover nothing, she managed it that way and took a glance at my sleeping face before rushing out. Lilliana used her hand to cover her boobs and the shredded clothes to cover her thigh. Thankfully, it was night, so the palace was not flooding with maids and guards around. Suddenly, she felt someone pull her arm into a room. Lilliana looked up at the person with a smile. “I don't think I've had enough. He just doesn't know how to satisfy me like you. We had it for just one hour, and he was already tired.” The person pulled her closer by her waist, “I waited for you.“ Lilliana pouted her lips, ” Hope you didn't wait for long? I had to make sure he was asleep.“ The person licked their lower lip staring at her naked body. ”I can kill to always see you like this. I hate it whenever I see you with him. Knowing he's touching what's mine is making me want to slit his throat.” He muttered and Lilliana placed a finger on his lip silencing him. "He's the Alpha you should watch what you say. I don't want you getting in trouble.“ she whispered. He pulled her closer, her breast touching his chest. ”Are you scared of him?“ Lilliana sighed, ” I thought you pulled me in here to feel better. My pussy is crying for that cock of yours.“ she grabbed his cock in his trouser. ”I can't wait to have you in me, let's get this over with.“ ”With pleasure, Luna.“ he grinned carrying her. She wrapped her legs round his waist and he made her back to lean against the wall. They started to kiss, getting lost in their pleasure. Lilliana moaned loudly rocking her butt on his hardened cock. The rest of the night, was pleasure filled for Lilliana. They didn't realize it was morning not until a knock came on the door. ”You can leave.“ The person said and gave her a cloth to put on. They shared a passionate kiss again, and she let out a low moan. He helped her push the bookshelf revealing a door which she left through. The door was connected to her room, she pushed the bookshelf walking inside her room and fell on the bed. “Damn,” she muttered fingering herself. “I don't think I've gotten enough.” ******** Beta Nightfury bowed before me as he walked into my chamber where most pack issues are sorted out. He turned to the guards behind him and nodded at them. They went outside and returned with some rogue men completely beaten. I grinned, a smirk at the corner of my lip. I knew Beta Nightfury was capable of anything. Within few hours, he already found the culprits. “My Alpha, these rogues were caught trying to sneak into the palace last night. After much torture, they revealed they attacked our men and took their supplies.” I looked at the rogues, then furrowed my brows ” Weren't they up to 24? I can only see 15 here." “My Alpha, five tried to escape, and we had them killed. They claimed to have separated from the other four.” Beta Nightfury replied. “Good, take this ones away, they won't be spared for stealing out supplies. They cost me double all of that supply worth more than their pitiful lives. And they dared to steal it.” One of the rogues struggled with the guards as they pulled him away. “Your reign would end soon. You would die a miserable death.” the rogue cursed, his glaring gaze on me. “Kill that one first.” I ordered. Right there, Beta Nightfury beheaded him with one slash from his claw. The others shrieked in fear, trembling. No one said another word. He left with the rogues and the maids followed in to clean the blood stain and his body was taken out. I rested my elbow on the arm of the chair, and my chin on my palm. He walked in, his steps quiet, the same arrogant smile on his lip. My younger brother, Matthew. “I heard you arrived yesterday. Are you just coming to see your Alpha?” Matthew sneered, staring at the rogue head. He walked past it, then stood before me. “Long time brother. How does the Alpha seat feel with blood in hands?”Selene POV"Hey."Hayley called behind me, asking me to stop. I could've ignored her and just continued to walk, but I waited—to listen to whatever trash she wanted to say.However, I already had my suspicions. She must've tipped Killian off about the vial."The night is still cold, Lady Hayley. You should return to your room quickly," I said, mustering a fake smile.She came closer, staring at me."What exactly does Dark see in you?""I apologize, but I'm only his servant.""He even chose to ignore me, all because of a man. I really hope what I'm hearing is not true. You should also stay away from Dark. I am his chosen mate. How can I produce an heir with you around? Don't you worry for Dark? He needs an heir."I almost laughed at what she said. What had changed Hayley, I still don't know. She hated men, and here she was, trying to win over the heart of Dark."Does this seem funny to you?" she glared at me."You should return to your room, Lady Hayley," I said with a bow and turned t
Selene's POV“Let me go,” I struggled against Dark's strong hold. “They just took Silas and all you did was watch,” I said amidst tears.“There is nothing you can do now, Sal,” Riven said in a low tone.I turned to him, shaking my head. “We can still save him. We are not leaving him, right?”“We will definitely go back for him,” Dara assured.*****We all returned to Dark's territory afterward. Dara explained all that had happened—the man I had suspected from the beginning was actually working for Killian. He had taken them by surprise, and the Night Bane Order overpowered them.I tightened my fist in anger but calmed at Riven’s touch.“The vial, did you really give it to him?” Riven asked.I smiled. “No, I didn't. That was just a fake. The actual one is with me,” I said, bringing out the bottle.Dara turned sideways, guilt written all over her face. Benita sat next to her, smiling at her, but Dara didn’t want to talk.I walked over and sat close to her.“Hey, Dara,” I nudged her shou
Selene's POV“I hope you'll keep to your promise and take me to my daughter?” Benita asked.“Sure, we will,” I replied.She stared at me for a while and then at Dark. “Can I have a word with you for a moment?” she said to me.I was about to follow her when Dark held my arm back.“Why can’t you say it here?” he gave her a dangerous look.Benita stared at him, surprised. “Don’t you trust me by now?”Dark was silent. He slowly let my arm go. “Scream my name if anything happens,” he said while staring at Benita.I nodded, a little amused to see that he cared that much. His actions were suddenly strange, and I couldn’t see any reason why he should act that way. I was just his personal servant, anyway.I followed Benita into her room, and she asked me to sit. Then she leaned into my face, closely. I watched her, wondering what she was up to, and then she pulled my mustache off.I gasped, covering my mouth.“You’re not a man, right?”My eyes widened, wondering when my cover had been blown. “
Selene POVI remembered growing up with a strange bottle tied around my neck like a necklace. No one told me what it was for. All I knew was that my father had gifted it to me when I was born.I never knew what my parents looked like. I grew up with the Alpha and Luna, so my childhood wasn’t all that rough—except that I was hated because the Alpha favored me. He treated me like his own and was the most excited when he found out I was his son’s mate.But on the night he was supposed to announce the next Alpha, he died. I had gone to his room that night, only to find him lying on the bed, half-dead. He looked like he’d been poisoned.Yet, he still smiled at me like always, bringing out the bottle-necklace I had thrown away. I blamed my father for leaving me and making everyone hate me, so I had despised the necklace and threw it away. I never knew the Alpha kept it.The Alpha placed the necklace around my neck and told me never to take it off—that my parents were always with me. He ment
Selene’s POVA mind-link with Dark was confusing. We weren’t connected in any way, so I didn’t understand why.“He’s our mate,” my wolf said.“But he doesn’t even recognize us.”Dark was pushed into the store with me, and the door was locked.“How did you do that?” we said at the same time.“You go first,” he muttered.“We could have taken them. Why did you let them take us?”Dark stood up and walked toward the door. I stood behind him.“From now on, don’t say a thing. Just watch me,” Dark replied in his usual cold tone, then broke the door.“Are you still standing there?” he asked when I didn’t follow him out.The woman and two other men were talking when we walked in on them.They were startled, wondering how we had escaped.They came after us, but Dark stood his ground. He caught one of the men by the head and smacked it against the ground. He was cool.The lady stayed back in fright, gritting her teeth. “What do you want?”“We have not come to fight. We only came to in search for
Dark POVHayley had fallen into my arms. In that moment, I released my hold and she crumpled to the ground.“You should return to your room,” I said.She looked at me, clearly annoyed, but didn’t dare to disobey.When she was gone, I clutched my chest. It wasn’t pain or heartbreak, but it was beating fast, and it felt like I needed to be somewhere immediately.Sal.I thought inwardly.*****PRESENT “They are in danger,” Sal said. There was fear and panic in his eyes.“Let’s leave.” I said.Sal gave me a questioning look, then blinked stared at me from head to toe and turned sideways.“I should go get something for you to cover up.”A few minutes later, she was back with a cloth, a pair of trousers, and a shirt she had gotten from the pack we had just left. Although it wasn’t my size or style, it still fit.Sal continued to follow the tracks left behind. We reached a place where the trail stopped. There was someone up ahead. Sal was still trying to say we wait and watch if it's an ene
