DARCY’S POV

All three of them turned to me with confused looks when I stepped inside. The air was thick with tension but held my chin high. “I'll stay here with Selena,” I said firmly.

My father raised his eyebrows at me. “You want to stay back? Why should you do it when Rowan is the best person to stay back and look after your sister? You should be coming with us to Meridara.”

I forced my heart to stay calm and kept my expression unreadable even though my heart was pounding in my chest. This

  • VENGEFUL TIES: Bonds formed from Revenge    Can I hold you?

    DARCY’S POV All three of them turned to me with confused looks when I stepped inside. The air was thick with tension but held my chin high. “I'll stay here with Selena,” I said firmly.My father raised his eyebrows at me. “You want to stay back? Why should you do it when Rowan is the best person to stay back and look after your sister? You should be coming with us to Meridara.”I forced my heart to stay calm and kept my expression unreadable even though my heart was pounding in my chest. This was an opportunity for me not to go to Meridara, so I had to make the most of it.“Rowan should be the one to go with you,” I said quickly. “I know I'm not supposed to be eavesdropping on your conversation but I heard that you want to get Meridara support for the fight against Elira to take back Lunaroria. Apart from Prince Lucian and the Ardyth family, no one knows the situation better than Rowan.“He'll be more useful in convincing Meridara to support us than I will ever be. I can stay back he

  • VENGEFUL TIES: Bonds formed from Revenge    A father’s fear

    LUCIAN’S POV Mark growled in anger as I walked out of the room and slammed the door after me, heading to Beta Joshua's room.I didn't even bother knocking as I pushed the door open to meet Beta Joshua and Rowan in the room packing. They stopped and turned to me in confusion.“Prince Lucian, what's the meaning of this? You can't just barge in here.” He narrowed his eyes.“What the hell do you think you're doing?” I growled, slamming the door shut behind me. “Taking Selena away to Meridara without even consulting me first?”I could feel Mark trying to take over, but with the anger boiling in me, I knew he would go overboard if I let him, so I blocked him from surfacing.Beta Joshua must have noticed it because I saw a bit of fear flashed in his eyes, but he quickly covered it up as he flexed his jaw and rose to his feet. “I don't need your permission to protect my daughter. I'm very certain King Aldric won't take any measures against his daughter for her actions, and you and I both kn

  • VENGEFUL TIES: Bonds formed from Revenge    Leaving for Meridara

    LUCIAN’S POV“There is an eternal punishment for killing your mate, but not everyone knows that because it's such a rare occurrence,” King Aldric continued. “Talia would be alone for the rest of her life and forever regret her actions. It's only inhumane to punish her more.”Xavier sighed and shook his head. “I'm sorry, dad, but I don't find it in my heart to forgive her.”“I'm not asking you to. Just make sure this doesn't get out,” His father ordered, and he nodded in response before walking out.King Aldric turned to me and leaned into his chair as we held each other's gaze in silence.“I know you are worried about Selena’s safety. I am, too, but you don't have to worry, I will make sure nothing happens to her and her child.”Shoving my hand in my pocket and moving closer to him. “I don't think I can trust that. You will protect Talia no matter what. She's still your daughter, even if she's going the wrong path.”“You're right. She's my daughter, it's my duty to protect her but Sel

    LUCIAN’S POV The walk to King Aldric office was a quiet one as everyone withdrew to their thoughts. My mind went back to the morning after Jared died. Talia was heartbroken and cried all day. She was even depressed days after that. I pitied her so much and promised to be with her.So all that was a lie all along?‘I wonder how many things she has lied to us about just to get our pity and attention” Mark sighed.‘I know, right? I knew she had feelings for me, but I never imagined that she would go to the extent to kill her own mate just so she could be with me.’‘No wonder she tried to cause a rift between us and our mate,’ he growled as we recalled her telling me about how Selena was only with me because of her ulterior motive but come to think of it she was right about that. Mark continued, ‘Mate was ready to change her mind and tell us the truth but Talia orchestrated the whole garden scene and made her see us kissing, that's why she got mad and turned against us.’ I stopped on m

  • VENGEFUL TIES: Bonds formed from Revenge    Running toward safety

    SELENA’S POV There was a pin drop silence in the room after King Aldric's dominant voice roared in the room. Everyone's head automatically bowed to the authority of his wolf.Xavier released his sister and bowed to his father and I glanced at him to see that his eyes colour had returned to normal.I was still on the bed, bewildered by what Talia said. Xavier had always been bothered by how Jared died mysteriously. He even lost his other best friend because of it. Finding out that his sister was the culprit was definitely hard to handle and enough to send his wolf to a frenzy.Talia was obsessed with Lucian, that I know, but I didn't expect that she would be obsessed to the point of killing her own mate. I should definitely be thankful that I was still alive. “Xavier, what do you think you are doing?” The Queen rushed in and held Talia who was on the floor gasping for breath. “You almost killed your sister. Are you out of your mind?” “She's the one who is out of her mind,” Xavier ra

  • VENGEFUL TIES: Bonds formed from Revenge    The buried secret

    LUCIAN’S POV “I could ask you the same, Talia. What are you doing barging into my room like that?” I shoved my hands into my pants as I motioned the head chef to leave.She pointed at Selena with anger in her eyes. “Why is she here?” she looked at the fashion brands bags on the floor with disbelief. “Don't tell me she's moving into your room?” I moved to stand in front of Selena to block her from Talia who was close to her. “Whatever happens between Selena and I is none of your business, so I suggest you leave now.” I pointed to the door. “Are you out of your mind?” she yelled at me. “She betrayed you and almost got you killed, how could you just accept her back just because she claims she is pregnant? Did you even confirm if the baby is yours? She's probably lying to you to get closer and finish what she started.”I opened my mouth to say something but Selena's voice stopped me. “I admit that I betrayed Lucian and almost got him killed but if there's one thing I never, is cheating
