Lucien's p.o.v"The elders believe so much in tradition Alpha Lucien and you of all people should know that," I nodded thoughtfully as Elder Alvin said. He is right after all. It is the tradition in Luparia for every King to produce an heir or have an heir in sight within just two years of his mating ceremony. Failure to do that could result into him being dethrone. I bet Cassius is probably making a mockery of me with his cousin, Reid right now knowing my status. He had gone ballistic following his mate's verdict the other time and had vowed never to return except as King of Luparia.My heart bleeds knowing no one will ever take care of my people like I do. Cassius is selfish and him being king isn't what I am actually afraid of but his actions towards the people. He is way too corrupt to ever be King. I could remember the countless times Cassius had tried to undermine my authority, spreading dissent among the nobles in the court and commoners alike and that, that is what I fear fo
Freya's p.o.vA cold shiver ran down my spine at Lyra's revelation and I could literally feel my heart in my mouth that very moment knowing my father has a connection with Lucien's curse somehow."How... How do you mean, Aunt Lyra?" my breath hitched. "How is that ever possible?"Aunt Lyra held her chest, slowly drifting back to meet Elara and I at the table. "Your father was the reason for Lucien's nemesis. It all started a long time ago before you were born, before your mother left Luparia to homine."I blinked repeatedly, trying to grasp a thing about what I had just heard Lyra say. "I...I don't understand.""Your mother was a member of the blood moon pack—the last piece. And she had always wanted a life outside Luparia. She had always been so inquisitive about a lot of things and Luparia was no exception for her. There, she met your father and that was the beginning of everything.""The beginning of everything?" I felt my brow raise sharply."Your mother was mated to Odessa's son.
Kael's p.o.v The dungeon's door creaked open, and the sound echoed off the cold stone walls. My eyes narrowed, my gaze fixed on Amarantha as I stood at ease in front of her with a tray of food on one hand, and the other hand behind my back. The scent of bread and watery soup wafted through the air, a meager offering for a whole future queen of Luparia. My eyes met hers, and I nodded slightly. "I've brought you sustenance." My gaze lingered on Amarantha. I dropped the tray of food and turned to leave. "How unfortunate that you are letting your wolf die of its needs while she's living her best life with her mate," her statement made me halt. "You wouldn't even bow to me anymore because of that bitch of a Luna. Where is your loyalty? And wasn't she the reason why you had pleaded with scar the other time to help you get at the Slave market because she was your 'mate'?" My breath hitched, a gasp evident at Amarantha's statement. Yes, Freya is my mate. She had been my mate since th
Freya's p.o.v"What was it about, Freya?""It was a storm. But it was no ordinary storm. It was being controlled by a figure —a girl. She seem so angry and her anger was a replica of the storm's intensity. It was so intense that it caught me up in it but each time I struggle to stand back on my feet despite its intensity, I kept falling. It was as if she wanted me dead, but I didn't.""Oh, God," Katherine's hand clenched tightly on her chest. "Your honor, why didn't you tell this to the Alpha King?""I couldn't because... because I wasn't the only one in the storm. Lucien was there too and he was...he was swallowed by the storm even before I could stop it," tears brimmed from my eyes. "I'm so scared Katherine. And I have learnt at Madame Selene's house that seeing a storm in your dream isn't a good omen. I'm so scared for Lucien. I don't think I can accept the fact that anything would take him from me aside the path he has chosen, Katherine. I love him. way too much, I'd sacrifice my
Freya's p.o.v "Tell them the Alpha is busy," Lucien shouted at the voice that had come to call him. "Infact, today's meeting is cancelled. Tell them all to converge tomorrow." The man left. "And you," he turned to face me after slamming the door shut. "Come here." I chuckled lightly as Lucien nibbled my ear from behind me as we face the large mirror in his chamber. It's been several weeks and he won't just let me breathe. It's been one form of sex and intimacy to the other. He could barely hold it together around me, especially whenever we are alone. He nearly had me done right in the court room the other time following a discussion on Alpha Reid's situation with the Elders and Luparia at large. Alpha Reid, King of the Northern pack, is Cassius's cousin through his father and there's been a verified rumor that he's been building an army with his cousin to dethrone Lucien sooner. I fear that Lucien might get hurt and God forbid something bad ever happens to him than the curs
Freya's p.o.v My breath seized and I gasped as Lucien's masculine hand found its way up my thigh, his finger slightly brushing my core. The tingling sensation made me tremble a bit even as his lips continue to work on mine. His hand caressed my thigh before moving up to my hip, then slowly to my breast and now my neck. I could hear Lucien's loud moan as he deepens the kiss. He withdrew. Our eyes still locked onto each other. His hand gently tugged down my dress strap, taking off my gown, tossing it to the ground and leaving me only with my corset. Lucien's pupil dilated at the sight of my cleavage. I am a little bit chubby in nature and I have always admired my curves each time I stare at the mirror in my room. Sometimes, I feel so insecure about my body especially my boobs. I find them somewhat too big for someone my age. I blushed as Lucien continue to stare at my pushed up boobs from the corset and I do not know if it was due to embarrassment that they are quite big or t
