Logan's POV.It had been a few days since the night that I rejected Lisa, and a lot of things had changed since then.After that night, Lisa made sure that my life became a living hell. My whole family heard that I rejected her, and the pack council too. My phone was ringing endlessly, and I was receiving messages left and right. My mother came and made a scene, accusing me of wanting to kill her grandchild. It was such a fucking mess. I had never felt so embarrassed in my life. The worst part was when the council summoned me, and forced me into signing the divorce papers. I had also made Lisa my Luna now. I wanted to feel happy that my pack now had a true Luna since she was my mate, but I had been all shades of unhappy. My heart felt heavy about ending my marriage with Tonia. My heart felt even heavier when the private investigator I had hired found nothing on her. It felt like she had disappeared into thin air. "Alpha...Alpha!" I snapped out of my thoughts, and raised my gaz
Tonia's POV.It had been an hour since I returned home with Leah, and still, no one had called to tell us anything about the person that took my picture. Back at the shopping mall, It seemed like I wasn't the only one who saw him because the second he ran out of the shopping mall, Timothy chased after him. Timothy didn't come back as fast as we expected, so Nath decided to bring us home. But since I returned, I had been so restless. I wondered who the person was and what he wanted to do with pictures.I hoped this wasn't another Alpha that didn't like Jayden. I was starting to feel unsafe with dangerous enemies lurking around. I knew Jayden was a king, and he had a lot of enemies, but it had not even been up to two weeks since Alpha Keith's attack. Why were they also targeting me? Was it because I was Jayden's mate and an easy target? "Tonia," I heard Leah's voice and lifted my gaze. "You should stop thinking about what happened. I'm sure that Jayden and the guards will take ca
Tonia's POV. Did I hear him right? "What did you just say?" I gasped. "Antonia, I want you to be by side at all times." He replied. I didn't want that. It would be harder to resist him. "Jayden, I will be fine and you do not have to be with me twenty-four-seven. I have the guards and they will protect me." He didn't still look convinced. "Jayden, please don't worry about me." I quickly added. "I don't want to act controlling, so I'll trust you," He caressed my cheeks. "But I still want you to stay with me tonight." Sweat formed on my skin,and I felt the air become more thick.How was I going to survive spending a night with him? Sharing the same bed? I was already tempted by his handsome face, and having a hard time resisting all his charm. How would he even control himself? I knew very little about Lycan sexuality, but I knew he was having a hard time controlling himself. What was the guarantee that something wouldn't happen tonight? "I promise not to touch you," His vo
Jayden's POV. "Ryker!" I grabbed his shoulder and made him face me. "What was that about?!" I snapped, glaring at him. I didn't expect him to behave so rudely towards Tonia. "You promised to behave yourself when you meet her. Why are you acting this way?" I rebuked. "Jayden, can you hear yourself?" Ryker shot back. "You said that she was a werewolf." "You never said that she was an omega!" "I didnt think that such an information was important," I raised my voice. I was so angry at him right now. "Are you for real? How can you even say that such information isn't important?" He thundered and bit the piercing on his lip. "She's an omega, what's wrong with that?" I demanded. "She's my mate and that's all that matters to me." "To you? What about the pack? How can the lowest rank in all of Lycanthrope rule over us?!" He argued. "Antonia is an intelligent woman, and I'm sure that she'll do her best for this pack," I defended my mate. "No one cares for her intelligence. We are i
Jayden's POV. It was wrong to think of my mate that way, but I couldn't stop myself. It seemed like reality was more concerning than I thought. My enemies had always tried finding a weakness in me, and Antonia would certainly be their target.In times of war, she would be helpless,and I would have to think of ways of keep her safe."What am I going to do about this?" I asked, running my hands through my hair."How would the people, and others react when they find out she doesn't have a wolf? My family don't know that detail, and Leah couldn't suspect that because she doesn't have a wolf yet," I thought restlessly."She doesn't just lack a wolf, but doesn't seem to have basic survival instincts. She hardly notices me around her until I speak. This is bad," I mumbled, feeling more agitated than ever."But I can't give up on her. She's my mate, and I have to help her," I asserted, and stood to my feet."I had promised to help in reviving her wolf, but how do I do that? I couldn't even
Tonia's POV."Excuse you?!" Ryker glared at Jayden. "There's no way that I'm teaching this rude, silly—" "You're the rude one here!" I snapped. "Everything about you screams rudeness...you're very unpleasant!" I had never been so angry since Logan made fool of me. And I had never felt so nauseated like I was right now. He was rude, mannerless, and he didn't even see a need to hide his disgusting attitude. I heard everything he said about me last night, and I had never felt angrier. I wondered why he became friends with someone as wonderful as Jayden. I overheard how he defended me yesterday, and it made me trust him more. "You're the only unpleasant one here! You are an abomination to every one of our species!" Ryker insulted. "Ryker, that's enough!" Jayden shunned. "No, it's not. I want him to continue ranting like an idiot. I enjoy watching you make a fool out of yourself! Disgusting twat!" I affronted without restraint. "Stupid piercings!" I added. His expression turned d
Tonia's POV. "I am not training with you until I talk to Jayden!" I didn't wait for him to reply, I just ran to my room. I took my phone and called Jayden. He answered after a few dials. "Jayden, how are you? How is your brother?" I questioned in a worried tone. It must have been very serious for him to leave at midnight. I just wished that he came to wake me up before leaving the mansion. "We are fine," He sighed. I didn't believe his words at all. He sounded tired, and there was some noise in the background. I just hoped there wasn't a war over there. That would be so horrible. "Are you sure that you're fine? You don't sound good," I quizzed. "I'm just tired," He responded briskly. "Antonia, I have to go. Please take care of yourself and do whatever Ryker asks you...""I am sorry for disappointing you today." "I don't mind—" The call disconnected before I could complete my sentence. "What just happened? Is he fine?" I asked, feeling very concerned. The door suddenly
Tonia's POV. I couldn't focus on my breakfast, or rather my brunch after learning that I would be training with that unbearable Lycan for the next few days. I had been so sad and upset about this sudden change. I was also worried about Jayden. Jayden had always tried to spend time with me, so I was very surprised to hear that he wouldn't be returning. Something bad must have happened for him to take such a drastic decision. I also doubted that he would willingly leave me alone with that nasty piece of work. "I just hope that he's fine," I bit my lip anxiously. "He didn't sound good earlier," I said worriedly."What if something bad is happening?" I shivered. "I think I should call him, hearing his voice would give me some reassurance." I dropped my fork and grabbed my phone from the table. I called his number, but it was unavailable. "Unavailable?" I panicked. I called him again, but it said the same thing. I dialed his number up to ten times, but it was always the same 'un
Logan's POV."Alpha, I never tried to break his majesty or Tonia apart. I don't know where you got that from, but please do not involve me in any of this," He said, shaking his head.He was playing hard to get. Who did he think he was?"Christian, you should think twice before you reply again. I know that you have a crush on Tonia and was quite heartbroken to see that she was with someone else. Then, you tried starting this relationship with her under the pretense of friendship," I muttered, seeing through him."However, Jayden had to show up and ruin everything. Now, you don't even have a friendship with her," I smirked mockingly.He looked red when I finished my sentence. It was obvious that I had struck a nerve."Christian, you were trying to break them up without getting anything in return. Why don't you do it to get a beautiful mansion or a position in my pack?" I asked, enticing him."I will provide whatever you want. Do you want the latest cars, clothes, shoes?" I asked.He loo
Logan's POV.Days later. I had been waiting for days, but Walter hadn't brought any good news to me. He hadn't gotten a hold of the guy yet, and I was still stuck in the hospital because of the 'problem' ranting beside me."When are you going to come home?" Lisa asked. "The doctor said that you have recovered very well and you can return to the pack. Why have you decided to stay here," She ranted.I finally looked at her and my gaze wasn't pretty at all.I was tired of her nonsense. She was already far gone in the pregnancy, so it wasn't like she could get rid of it.She would have no other choice but to bear my child, there was no need to act nice."Lisa, I built this hospital with my money. Therefore, I am going to stay here as long as I like," I spat."What about me?" She cried out. "You have not come to a single doctor's appointment with me, and it feels like I am the only one having this baby. I am so sick and tired of being treated like this!" Lisa cried out.I didn't want to
Tonia's POV.It was already evening, but I was still feeling so bad about what I said to Jayden.I didn't mean anything that I said to him. I just wanted to say something to hurt him because he had hurt me with his words.I was vindictive and I regretted it so much. I should have just ignored him and continued walking.I was sure that he did not mean what he said to me either. He was just so upset.I did not want go for dinner. I felt very ashamed of my behavior. I lashed out like a child."I was so stupid," I lamented.I dug my fingers into my hair and buried my face in the sheets. I should do the mature thing and apologize, but I didn't know why I felt too ashamed or proud to do it."He did not deserve to be called pathetic. He has been the nicest person to me, why did I call him that out of every other that I could have chosen," I scolded myself.The more that I thought about it the more ashamed I felt."Antonia," I heard Jayden's voice and my body froze on the bed."Are you not c
Logan's POV.I stood in front of the mirror, looking at my neck.That bastard called Jayden had scarred me for life. I was even lucky that he wasn't able to claw my throat out of my neck.The doctors said that I was very lucky to have come out of that. However, I wasn't too lucky with my voice.My voice had slightly changed and I sounded like a joke now."Fuck him!" I sneered.I pounded my fist into the mirror and it shattered. My knuckles started bleeding, but I did not care at all.I was very mad that he was able to put me in the hospital with two bullets inside him.I heard that he survived those bullets and even put the man I sent into his captivity.Jayden was a complete menace.I should have been more careful and intentional with him. I should have put up to ten bullets in him.I should have shot his head instead of his stomach. He might have been declared brain dead instead of being in a coma for a while."He broke almost every part of my body. I lost Tonia because of him and a
Jayden's POV."What did you just say?" I growled."Your Majesty, I did not mean to offend you," He started acting again. He meant what he said. "There are just something things that you might find strange and I don't want to offend you," He replied with a coy smirk.I didn't know what he was playing at, but he should stop messing with me. I believed that the rumors about me being nice had gotten into his head.I could be nice to everyone, but I wasn't going to play with my mate. She meant everything to me and no one was going to use her to stroke their ego.I could never let that happen."You can say what you want in front of me. She is my mate, and it is not awkward to know that she had previous relationships. She was a person with a life before she met me," I clarified."Your Majesty, I thought that you would be uptight, but I was so wrong," He said sarcastically. "I am glad that Tonia has someone like you in her life.""Guys, I'm still here," Antonia suddenly spoke."We are so s
Jayden's POV.Was this guy out of his mind?I told him that she was my mate, and he still had the guts to send this kind of message?? It seemed like I was too lenient on him. I should have shown him the consequences of touching my woman.The audacity of this guy was something else."What are you doing with my phone?" Antonia stepped out of the bathroom.I did not even notice her because I was too distracted by my anger."Did someone message me?" Antonia asked, coming to sit beside me."No, I just wanted to play a few games. I felt a little bored and I don't really have nice games on my phone," I lied, deleting the fool's message.I shouldn't lie to Antonia like this, but I didn't want her to start thinking the worst of me."Antonia, it seems like you and this Christian guy were never that close. So, why are you suddenly indulging him?" I questioned worriedly."I am just trying to get close to him because of the other warriors. I know they were nice to me, but it must have been becaus
Jayden's POV.I walked into the inner part of the training center and the first thing that greeted my eyes was my mate in the arms of another man.Wait...What??Why was someone else holding her? Who was he? And what the fuck did he want from her?The mate bond between us had been sealed and though she lacked a wolf, it did not reduce that fact. I was smelling her scent more intoxicatingly, and I was certainly pissed to see her with someone else.Draven was just as mad.I released a low growl and walked over to them. I grabbed her arm and pulled her away from his hold."How dare you touch her like that? Have you no respect at all for my mate?!" I raised my voice.She was his future Luna. He should be greeting her by bowing, not by hugging her. What was running through his little head?"Your Majesty, I'm very sorry," He quickly bowed his head, apologizing."Jayden, it's not like that. Christian used to be my classmate, but I never knew that he was a Lycan because we were still in high-
Tonia's POV.I knew that the mate bond had a lot of complications, but I never thought of it this way.This meant that I couldn't choose to suddenly leave Jayden because it would affect both of us. I couldn't get hurt either because he might also feel the pain.Was that how it was for Lycans? The mate bond did not hold so many issues when it came to werewolves."Antonia, I am not trying to scare you. I just want you to know what you have gotten into," He said, having the best intentions as always."Thank you for making everything much clearer to me, there are a lot things about Lycans that I don't know yet." "You are welcome," He exhaled. I suddenly realized that Jayden must be scared of me leaving again. I must have really hurt him by what I did. "I will keep everything that you have said in mind. I will never hurt or reject you, Jayden," I reassured him."Jayden, I will never leave you," I promised."Okay, I trust you," He replied and replaced his serious expression with a smile.
Tonia's POV.Days went by and we continued having sex, but he fed me and cleaned me up each time. The sex seemed to be endless, but I did not want it to stop either. "Antonia, good morning..."I opened my eyes and saw Jayden. His eyes were back to their normal blue color."Are you okay?" He asked, giving me this guilty look.He started apologizing, "I'm so sorry about what happened...i didn't calculate my rut properly, and things went out of control. I am very sorry." "I do not remember much of what I did, but forgive me. I should have had more control over myself.""Jayden, you did not do anything wrong. I actually enjoyed every second of it. I haven't had sex so much before, but every single time came with a different feeling of pleasure," I confessed."You shouldn't feel bad about anything and don't worry, Draven was good to me. I won't say that he was nice or level-headed as you, but he was comical and..." I trailed off, recalling all the filthy things he was saying to me."I wa
