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 74. Daciana and Kellen quickly stood up when they saw the Beta, bowing slightly in front of him. As for Elena, she remained rooted to her seat at first, staring at the Beta with spite until Daciana secretly kicked her leg, forcing her to begrudgingly stand. "Beta Dax. I can assure you that Daciana was only trying to make me feel better." Kellen raised his hand and said, trying to salvage the situation. "I would never in any way try to disrespect my father's name or his... Death."Daciana could feel the sadness that she'd fought so hard to keep away from him seeping back into him, causing her jaws to clench in frustration.Why did the Beta have to show his bitch ass face?Anyway, the Beta scanned his gaze from Kellen and then to Daciana and Elena before he responded. "Right. Anyway, that doesn't matter right now. Before the investigations can begin properly, we'll first need to make preparations for a funeral for the Alpha King."Daciana blinked in surprise. A funeral alread
Chapter 75. "Oh, great, you two are okay." Axel blurted as soon as Daciana and Kellen stepped down from the car after they drove into the palace compound with Beta Dax. He stretched his arms wide as he walked toward them, pulling them into a group hug."Of course, we're okay, dummy," Kellen said with a scoff, trying to pull away from the hug to no avail. "Axel? What's the meaning of this?"Daciana was also a bit suspicious of Axel's sudden show of affection but kept silent as she watched the Beta walk past them and step into the mansion, his scary-ass guard walking behind him. She squinted her eyes at first until Axel called their attention with a whisper while still hugging them."Shh. Kellen, things are not looking good for you." Axel whispered, scanning his gaze around to make sure none of the guards were watching them. Unfortunately, some of the guards gave them suspicious glances since the hug was taking too long. "What do you mean by that?" Kellen asked, finally successfull
Chapter 76. "Move or I'll make you move!" As soon as Kellen said that, a guttural growl escaped his mouth as his eyes glinted with the light of his inner wolf. Daciana stared at him wearily, glancing at Alan and Axel, who both stood beside her, seeming unsure of what to do. "Shouldn't we stop him?" Daciana asked with a whisper, concern etched in her voice. But Axel shook his head, waving his hand dismissively. "Nah, it's fine. He'll be fine. It's the guards I'm worried about." Daciana stared at Axel for a few seconds before she turned her gaze back to Kellen. He had his hands balled into fists and glared at the guards who glanced among themselves before they fixed their attention back on him. "I'm sorry, young master, but the Beta himself ordered us not to let anyone in while he's conversing with the elders." Kellen scoffed, his irritation further spiking as he blurted. "Well, I'm not just 'anyone' now, am I? I'm Kellen Ryker and I demand entry!" One of the guards, who'd bee
Chapter 77. The atmosphere in the meeting room was getting more tense by the second as the elders of the Fiery Lake pack remained speechless after Kellen's last words.They exchanged a few glances but the looks in the eyes of some of them told Daciana that they knew that there was some truth in Kellen's words.Anyway, just when the silence was about to get suffocating, Beta Dax placed his right hand in front of his mouth and coughed, breaking it abruptly."Well, Kellen, I must let you know that while your words are heartwarming, the elders simply have no other choice." He began, folding his arms in front of his chest. "The Alpha King is dead. They have to look through every possible option without any bias so that–""Enough!" Kellen yelled out, banging his hand on the table. The sound boomed around the meeting hall, causing the Elders to shift back with terrors in their eyes. Two of them even stood up, while the most elderly among them seemed like they were on the verge of a panic
Chapter 78. The day of the Alpha king's funeral finally came and at this point, the triplets had all finally accepted that their father was indeed gone forever.It took Kellen a while but Daciana was glad he was slowly on the road of moving on."Daciana!" Elena almost yelled when she walked into her room.Daciana smiled, standing up from the chair she sat on to go hug her friend.Today was the only day the Beta allowed them to see each other at the palace since he banned outsiders from coming in."Oh, girl. It's been hell here." Daciana lamented, sighing with relief when Elena brushed her hand through her hair. The latter chuckled lightly as she slowly pulled Daciana out of the hug."Yeah, but you've survived. You and your mates are alive and that's all that matters." Elena placed her hand on Daciana's shoulder, trying to sound reassuring. Elena wore a handless black dress that reached her knees and had her blonde hair flowing freely.As for Daciana, she wore a black satin gown wit
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
