Chapter 66. Later that evening, Kellen decided to go for a walk at a park somewhere in the city, about a ten-minute drive away from the Palace. He insisted he wanted to do it alone, but Daciana wasn't having it. "Come on, you wouldn't even know I'm there," Daciana said, wrapping her hands together and fluttering her eyes at him when they walked out of the palace. Kellen was about to step into one of his father's cars which was left open by a driver who bowed while he waited for him. Sighing, Kellen glanced back at Daciana and wore a smile on his face. "I just want to clear some things off my head before the coronation ceremony tomorrow. That's all." He said reassuringly. Unfortunately, Daciana still wasn't convinced and was actually surprised at the last part. "Wait, the coronation ceremony is tomorrow already?" She'd almost forgotten. Or rather, completely forgotten. She didn't want to say it was because her mind had been 'occupied' by the triplets pampering these past few d
Chapter 67. Daciana arched an eyebrow when she heard Kellen's confession. The coronation ceremony? Why was that bothering him?"Is... Is something wrong?" Daciana asked, not knowing where to start. "Is it stressing you out? Is that it?"Kellen scoffed, but then quickly raised his hand and waved at her with an apologetic smile. "I'm sorry, it's just... You wouldn't get it. You probably think I'm stressed because I want to be the one my father picks." He blurted. Daciana just stood there silently, staring at his face and giving him time to process everything. If he's not stressed about his father picking him then that means..."The truth is, I wouldn't mind if one of my brothers gets picked for the position," Kellen revealed all of a sudden, folding his arms in front of his chest. "I might be the most qualified but with the right guidance, they could also show the will of great leaders. Unfortunately, my father doesn't think like me."Daciana tensed up but nodded her head. She was
Chapter 68. After waiting till seven, Daciana and Kellen left the park and headed back to the palace. When they got to the palace and walked through the grand foyer at the entrance, they held hands, smiling at each other as they did. "Well, well, well." A voice spoke up from a pillar in the living room, causing them to turn their gazes there. Axel walked toward them with his arms folded in front of his chest and a cocky smirk on his face as his gaze went from Daciana to Kellen. "Looks like you kids had fun." He remarked with a teasing tone, giving Kellen a wink. Daciana's face heated up with a blush while Kellen rolled his eyes, staring at Axel with annoyance. Seeing this, Axel raised his hands in a sign of defeat. "Hey, I'm just saying. Next time, I'd at least like to tag along. Or better still, me and Daciana could go alone instead." He said. Daciana smiled and nodded her head in response. "Sure, why not? Anyway, can we go have dinner already? I'm starving." She stretched he
Chapter 69. Daciana woke up the next morning, stretching her arms and squinting her eyes as she tried to get used to the influx of light coming from outside.Gosh, she knew she was going to sleep in late as usual. "What's with the colorful lights outside though?" She asked herself, turning her gaze to the windows of her room and dimming her eyes. Red and blue lights flashed repeatedly just outside her window, causing an ominous feeling to wash through her.Something's wrong. Daciana hopped out of bed and immediately ran to one of her windows, staring out of it to see what was happening. Downstairs on the ground floor was an ambulance as well as several personnel who looked like doctors. They all had somber expressions on their faces and stared at the palace as if they were expecting something. Or someone. At the thought of that, Daciana's heart dropped to her stomach as she thought about the worst. Did something happen to the triplets?"No, no, no." She shook her head repeate
Chapter 70."The Alpha king is dead?" Daciana muttered more to herself as she watched Kellen stepping forward with both his hands placed on his head. He brushed them through his hair, grunting and groaning as tears began trickling down his eyes. Daciana didn't know what to do. This all felt so unreal. "Leave." Kellen suddenly blurted amidst sobs, turning around and gazing directly at the maids who stood in front of his father's door. "I said leave!"His last command came out as a guttural roar fueled by his wolf and by his rage and sadness, causing the maids to jolt back in shock before they scattered, scurrying away without looking back. Daciana also jolted back in shock, but she realized how depressed Kellen was when he leaned his back against a wall and began sobbing erratically. "My father is gone." He lamented, raising his hands wiping away his tears and snorting. "I should've been there to protect him. I should've been there to protect him..."He kept on mumbling repeatedl
Chapter 71.If anyone thought the Beta was joking about placing the entire pack on lockdown before, they were proven wrong within a matter of a few minutes.An announcement was made and it was broadcasted in the local pack news that the Alpha king was dead. All over social media spaces exclusive to only the wolves of the Fiery Lake pack, the news was being spread like wildfire, and people had so many theories on what happened and who was responsible."Are these people fucking serious?" Daciana gawked at her phone, speechless when she sat in her room, scrolling through the social media spaces meant for werewolves of the Fiery Lake pack.There were so many theories going around already, but the most popular one pointed at Kellen, accusing him of being responsible for poisoning the Alpha king. "No other person has more motive than Kellen because it was obvious that he'd be next in line so he probably wanted to speed up the process by killing his father..." Daciana read through one of t

Chapter 73. After Daciana managed to calm Kellen, he sniffled, pulling away from her hug with an embarrassed expression on his face. "I'm sorry." He muttered, using the back of his hand to clean his eyes as he glanced awkwardly at Elena who tried to keep her distance.He ended up sighing, brushing his hands through his hair before he continued speaking. "I thought I'd be alone here. I needed space from all that madness back at the palace."A despondent look appeared on his face as he sat back on the bench, all while Daciana kept her attention on him.He cleared his throat before he spoke again. "And I know how people believe I killed my father." He chuckled bitterly, raising his head and staring at the sky. "At least three different people have approached me on my way here, telling me that I betrayed my pack and my family."Daciana's heart sank as she glanced at Elena who had a complicated expression on her face. After sighing heavily, Daciana stepped forward and sat beside Kellen,
Chapter 120. The next morning, Daciana woke up feeling more well-rested than usual, causing her lips to curl up into a smile as she sat up and stretched out her arms. She glanced at her left side and saw Axel sleeping soundly while facing the ceiling, his chest rising and falling with each breath.As for Kellen, the new Alpha King slept on her right side and had his left arm lazily wrapped around her body while he lay on the bed with his chest."Good morning, mates," Daciana whispered with a warm smile even though they were both still sound asleep and probably couldn't even hear her. She kissed both of them on their cheeks, watching their faces light up with smiles even in their sleep, although they stirred a bit.Daciana didn't bother trying to wake them, knowing that they were both exhausted after everything that had happened in the past few weeks or so.Anyway, she stepped out of bed while still naked and was about to head to the bathroom when suddenly, a hand grabbed her wrist,
Chapter 119. (Warning: Mature Content Ahead)Daciana fell onto the bed, a small gasp escaping her lips as she watched both Kellen and Axel taking off their clothes. She bit her bottom lip, her arousal shooting through the roof when she caught sight of their bare chests, causing her to chuckle softly. "Gosh, it really has been a while." She remarked as they proceeded to take off their pants as well until they wore nothing but underwear which barely held back their bulging dicks.Kellen was the first to go down on her, squatting on the ground as he pulled off her panties, revealing her pussy to them.He subconsciously licked his lips before he proceeded to lower his head to her entrance and began using his tongue to flick her entrance until she let out a soft moan.She gripped the sheets, overflowing with ecstasy, as Axel climbed onto the bed and then knelt beside her. His hands went to her breasts which he slowly fondled at first until he brought his mouth to it after taking off her
Chapter 118.(Warning: Mature Content Ahead)When Daciana was done eating, she was the first to leave and retire to her bedroom. However, when she opened the door and stepped in, turning on the light, a slight smirk curled up her lips as she slowly began walking toward her bed while taking off her clothes.She brushed her hair, loosening the tresses which it was braided into before she let it fall until it reached the small of her back.Just when Daciana had taken off her clothing, leaving only her bra and underwear, a knock sounded on her room door, causing her to smirk slyly."Come in..." She blurted, adjusting her bra and then parting aside some strands of her hair.However, when the door swung open, Daciana's eyes widened when she saw who it was. "D– Delta..." She said in a panic, using her arms to cover her chest as the older woman walked into the room with an awkward look on her face.The Delta's lips parted with realization and then embarrassment as she shook her head before
Chapter 117. At the end of the day, Alan was successfully sent out of the pack while Hailey and her father were locked up in the dungeons until further punishment could be given to them if needed. However, despite all that, Daciana couldn't help herself from feeling uneasy about one particular detail. "Don't you think banishing Alan was a bad idea?" She asked Kellen when they all had dinner at the dining table. She, Kellen, and Axel were the only ones at the table since Elena and Sabrina had finally left the palace. Sabrina was still receiving treatment from the pack doctors since the bullet she had been shot with by the Beta was silver-coated and had intoxicated her system.But she was slowly recovering so Daciana didn't worry herself much about her and entrusted her to the pack doctors.As for Elena, her parents finally got her to come back home, telling her to give Daciana and her mates space. Daciana honestly didn't mind that idea...Anyway, back to her question, Kellen dran
Chapter 116."And that's why, I, Daciana Gavin, reject you as my mate forever!"As soon as Daciana said those words, the audience released shocked gasps and murmurs as they watched Alan fall to the ground and begin shaking erratically as if he was convulsing.He held his chest tight, struggling for basic breath as he tried looking up at Daciana and his brothers. But Daciana only watched him with cold eyes, every ounce of sympathy she once felt dissipating and melting away alongside the all-binding mate bond. She's always known that she was the only one who could reject Alan and his brothers as easily as this but she's never thought of doing it after they started getting close. Why should she? Everything had been going great, and she would've never suspected that Alan, of all people, would be capable of committing all the atrocities that he did. Daciana balled her hands into fists, watching as Alan began moving his right hand forward, trying to grasp her ankle as he shook from the
Chapter 115. As Kellen and Alan clashed in their wolf forms, the hall erupted into chaos as the civilians attempted to flee.However, the exits were closed, forcing the people sitting in the front rows close to the stage to go to higher grounds, all to avoid the fight.Meanwhile, Daciana watched in horror as two of her mates, two brothers, fought. It was amazing how the three of them all looked alike in their human form but were entirely different as wolves.Kellen's fur was white as snow and flowed like clouds around him. Alan, in contrast, had pitch-black fur enveloping his body like night encroaching on the sky."Daci, get out of there!" Elena yelled out from below the stage where she and the pack doctors were tending to Sabrina.At that same moment, Alan managed to gain the upper hand and head-butted Kellen directly to the Beta's seat. "Goddess, have mercy!" The Beta exclaimed as he grabbed his daughter and ran out of the way, narrowly escaping Kellen crashing into his table."K
Chapter 114. "I'm here to prove once and for all that Kellen Ryker is innocent!" As soon as Daciana said those words and the audience gasped with shock, Alan got on his feet, staring directly at her. "Daciana, stop whatever you think this is and drop the microphone." He warned, a growl leaving his mouth.But Daciana was unshaken as she stared right back at him before speaking to him through the microphone."Why? You're afraid that the whole pack will find out the kind of manipulative, scheming fraud you are?" She asked with spite in her voice, causing Alan to clench his jaw and causing the crowd to murmur in shock and disbelief."She speaks ill against the new Alpha King!" Someone from the audience yelled out just then.Another one added soon after. "Is that even allowed? She's merely an Omega after all.""Yes, but she's also his mate.""What sort of image does it paint for him if his mate can confront him like this?"Daciana could feel the people losing hope in Alan rapidly and th
Chapter 113. Finally, the day that Daciana had been dreading all this while arrived.The day of Kellen's execution.It was going to be made public and almost everyone in the pack was going to be attending. The rest who couldn't were those who couldn't stomach seeing his death.As for Daciana, she still had to attend as the new Alpha King's mate... Not as if she didn't want to attend anyway.She was in her room, with Elena and a maid helping her to make her hair into tresses."I was going to ask if you're okay but I figured that the answer to that question is no." Elena suddenly muttered awkwardly, gesturing at the maid to leave the room when she was done.When the maid closed the door on them, Daciana sighed heavily and turned her gaze to Elena."And you're right, Elena. I'm not okay." Daciana blurted, her jaw clenching just then. It was early in the afternoon, but she hadn't had breakfast, nor had she had dinner last night.Her mother had been worried sick and tried her best to ge
Chapter 112. The next day, Daciana and Axel decided to visit Kellen together so they could inform him of the recent developments and come up with a plan. When they got to the dungeons and told him everything, Kellen's face went pale with shock."Alan did what?!" Kellen yelled out, his mouth wide open as his gaze went from Daciana to Axel.Daciana nodded her head solemnly, her jaw clenched. "Yeah, he's been colluding with Hailey and her father all this time. The most annoying part is the fact that he's also been frolicking with the bitch."She balled her hands into fists when she remembered the conversation between Hailey and Alan that she had luckily recorded.Her nightmares last night were filled with the images of Alan and Hailey making out and laughing at her as she cried and pleaded for them to stop. She couldn't continue like this..."Daci, I'm... I'm so sorry." Kellen said with a low tone, stepping forward and attempting to stretch his hands through the space of the silver ba
