Rose’s POV:
THUD!
He fell to the ground helplessly. Anyone can see that the wolf was badly injured now but was still growling menacingly. I was feeling too bad for the poor animal much more than what I feel for my own uncles.
'Why does he have to go through all of this?
The four of them started moving towards the wolf slowly while pointing their gun towards him.
'Stop it! Please! Don't hurt him more. Let him die in peace!!!' I so badly wanted to scream but seeing the fiasco just now I didn't want to reveal my location anymore. I am not sure about my uncles being as harmless as I first thought.
But to my surprise, suddenly, the wolf got up and moved with the speed of light. There was no time to think as he started attacking them one by one.
He was beyond angry, it's like 'If I am going to die, I am going to take all of you with me!' He ripped David apart just like Uncle Pete.
He snatched the spear with his mouth from uncle Levi's hand and kicked William on the ground. He next tossed Uncle Levi to the tree and severely injured others too.
I kept my hands on my mouth to stop myself from screaming in fear. I looked at David’s unmoving body. He might be dead by his attack. My eyes became teary by only the sight of it.
Meanwhile, my coward Uncle William was helping my Uncle Pete up.
"Run, guys! Run! Retreat!" shouted Uncle Levi from the top of his lungs which sounded more like a scream in pain as he was also hurt severely.
Everyone heard him and started running in different directions holding on to each other.
Joseph who was hurt badly in the ribs was holding his upper abdomen with one hand and held David’s hand, who was lying on the ground unconscious, and started dragging him away from the wolf. The wolf practically let them go.
'Such cowards! Can't handle a single divine wolf.'
Once everyone was out of the clearing, the wolf finally fell on the ground. He must be exhausted and in so much pain after two bullets in his body. I couldn't help but feel extremely bad and somewhat guilty for not being able to stop my uncle and help the poor creature.
I don't know how and when my jelly legs started moving again without my permission and I found myself near the injured animal. The animal was howling lightly in pain. A tear fell down on my cheek and I don't know why I was feeling so bad for a deadly animal! But it felt like someone close to me got hurt.
Maybe it's because this wolf spared my life when could easily kill me as I was right in front of him. When he could take 6 healthy armed men at once then killing an unarmed girl must be a piece of cake for him but he chose kindness over cruelty and yet, he is here, lying half dead, screaming in pain.
Life is so unfair!
I could see it looking at me and then closing its eyes slowly. He still didn't attack me. I wiped my tears and my hand automatically went down to touch his head.
Then…
Just then….
Something I could never imagine in a million years happened…
The wolf changed…Its body metamorphosized.
It changed into a human!
And not just any human being! He changed into a hot human being in front of my own sinful eyes!! The hottest guy I have ever seen in my bloody life!
For a moment, I was stunned. I just stared at him but then…. I realized what I just witnessed!
I just saw a giant wolf changing into the most handsome guy from my own sinful eyes!
As soon as the realization hit, I screamed like a banshee!
“Monster!”
I screamed from the top of my lungs while pulling my hair.
Looking at the dark forest in my surroundings, the screams were getting worse and worse.
Like a doll on a music box, I span with the speed of light and was about to leave when something grabbed my feet… or I can say ‘someone’.
Gathering the non-existent courage in my body, I turned around while gulping my saliva.
I saw the man brutally injured by my own uncles was holding my leg.
A wave of electricity passed through my whole body. The shiver passed down to my spine.
I did the most logical thing I could do at the moment, I screamed… again!
“MONSTER! BEAST!”
My eyes were teary. I felt like it was my last day.
“LEAVE ME!”
I tried to pull my leg but he just tightened his grip around it. His grip was like an iron clasp. My eyes fell on his muscular arm.
What does he eat to have such powerful muscles? But the answer which popped up in my head didn’t make me happy one bit. ‘HUMANS!’
And I am going to be his next meal!
I jerked my leg to pull away from his grip but ended up falling on the ground on my back. I turned and tried to crawl away from him. I struggled to get away from him.
His grip on my leg loosened.
Just when I thought I could run away now, I felt his hand on my arm pulling me with a force that I fell on his chest.
I raised my head to look at the man lying on the ground under me while breathing heavily in fear.
Through the little moonlight shining above me, I glanced directly at him.
It was the first time I observed how celestial and manly his features were. I never saw anyone with such a perfectly angular face. His sharp chiseled jawline is to die for! His thin and perfect nose bridge made me roll my eyes.
I couldn’t believe that he had those curly eyelashes for which I go to the salon every month.
But the worse of them all, he had the most clear skin with a milky white complexion for which we girls are taking millions of treatments and skincare!
It was like he was made with perfection.
The universe cannot be more unfair!
I scoffed in disbelief.
I didn’t know I was still staring at his majestic face when I suddenly met with the most gorgeous pair of royal blue eyes.
I wanted to scream again but rather, I just kept staring at those eyes.
For a moment, I felt comfort and warmth in my heart.
I stopped struggling to release my hand as well.
I was completely mesmerized by his charm.
Never in a million years, I thought, I would be bewitched by a brutally injured naked guy who was a wolf just a few minutes ago but here we are!
‘Wait! Naked! And under me???’ my eyes were already turning in saucers when I heard him whisper.
“MATE!” he said.
His voice was low and weak but I could hear it.
“What Mate?” I asked confusedly.
“You are mine! You are my mate!” He replied, again with a weak voice.
“Excuse me! Who the hell are you to claim me yours, Mister Handsome Naked guy?” I replied with a raised eyebrow all the fear was gone like a passing wind.
“Your mate!”
“What does that supposed to mean?” I asked again like he is the most stupid and delusional person I have met. He took a breath and said,
“I am the Werewolf King and you are my mate. You are mine now” he said it with such confidence that I was taken back.
“What the hell! Werewolf King? Are you drunk? Did they hit you on your head?” I asked now again trying to get away from the crazy guy.
“You saw my wolf form!” He replied nonchalantly like its actually normal and not a big deal.
Then I remembered everything that happened tonight and my eyes widened.
“So what?” I replied, trying my best to sound confident.
“You have to marry me, NOW!” He said in a demanding tone.
“WHAT?”
Third person’s POV;At this very moment, the door of Elijah’s room opened and the least expected walked in,“ROSE!”Without uttering a word, Rose just walked towards him.She also had no idea what was wrong with her, like her feet were working independently.On the other hand, Elijah’s heart was thudding against his chest.Every single day, he prayed to meet his mate, and now that he has finally found her, the universe has gotten him into another trouble—a big one indeed!The least he wanted in his life was getting into a cheating scandal and that too in front of Rose. Cherry on top, Rose is the one who caught him!He was thinking about ways to explain to Rose that he was not the culprit and that nothing was going on between him and Beta’s daughter.With each slow step Rose was taking towards him, he felt his heart was about to break out of his chest.She was looking straight into his eyes. At the moment, her celestial face was unreadable.Elijah pushed Sofia away from him, Sofia almo
Third Person’s POV;“It was all my fault! It all happened because of me!” Rose said in a low voice and a tear rolled down to her cheek.“No” Elijah held her shoulders.“I came to your life and made it a living hell. Your mother would never accept me and now, you also had a fight with her because of me. She will hate me now” she said, a small tear fell doan on her cheek.“No, baby. Nothing like that is going to happen. I will talk to my mother tomorrow and everything will be alright” he said while wiping her tear.“This wouldn’t have happened if I didn’t come to your life. I think I should leave” Her voice cracked when she spoke. She really didn’t have the courage to leave her. She didn’t know how but she loved him more than she should.“Don’t ever say that! I can’t lose you” He said with his eyes speaking louder than words.She could see the millions of emotions in his eyes.“What will happen now?” she asked in a low voice.“Do you trust me?” He asked, his eyes never leaving hers.Ros
Third Person’s POV;“Elijah”The moment she took his name, he felt his heart thudding against his chest. He was still in shock how she has such a profound effect on him.His legs automatically started moving towards her.On the other hand, Rose felt her cheek burning when his eyes were staring deep down in her soul. She looked down in embarrassment.Elijah didn’t feel his mother’s intense gazes on him as he moved towards his mate. Now, he was standing right in front of Rose.Rose lifted her head up and their eyes met again for the second time. Elijah’s hand moved towards her cheek like an automatic reaction.Both of them were so lost in each other that they almost forget that they had company. Like it was just them in the entire mansion. ‘Just them’He caressed her cheek gently with his thumb and Rose felt a wave of electricity passing through her entire body.She wanted to jump in his arms and let him know how much she missed him and he wanted to the same, take her in his arms and fo
Elijah’s POV;“Your mate is here” My heart began pounding against my chest, the moment I heard those words.So, I was right. She is here already. She came for me.It’s been days since I met her but I already feel like I know everything about her. I don’t know how but this is crazy.Is it how being each other’s ‘soulmate’ means?“Where is she staying?” I asked plainly, keeping my excitement under control.I am the Future Werewolf King, I am not allowed to show my emotions in front of others. As my father always say, ‘Your emotions are your biggest enemy!’“She is staying at your chambers, Your Highness. Ms. Swan was the one who came up with this idea. I tried to..” the servant was dripping with sweat.Must be because Layla didn’t inform me about this and not everyone is allowed to stay at Crown Prince’s chamber, not even his mate until they are marked.I don’t know how she managed to lure mom for this but I am really proud of her.‘Good Job, Layla!’“Very well. You may leave now” I smi
Elijah’s Mother Luna Queen Phebe’s POV;“I wasn’t imagining things. She indeed look exactly like her” Now that I have seen it with my own eyes, I was more astonished than before. How can I not guess before?“Look like who, if I may ask?” Hazel asked confusedly.‘Is she even for real?’“Rose, Crown prince’s mate. Doesn’t she look like Mary?” I asked with an arched eyebrow.“Oh, yes, your Highness. Now that you have mentioned it, she is indeed the exact copy of Ms. Mary Dawson” Hazel nodded her head with a bright smile.That darn fool! Why is she smiling like that?“Didn’t you think that when you first saw her?” I asked, while glaring at Hazel for playing fool with me.“Pardon me, Your Majesty. I thought she looked like someone I knew when you first said it but I also couldn’t remember as it’s been nearly three decades since I saw Ms. Dawson last” She looked down with fear.“It’s okay. It’s good enough that we know now” I said while turned around to move out of the room.I don’t have mu
Rose’s POV;“WHAT? A war?” My eyes turned as wide as the moon.“Yeah, Elijah, Alpha King Cole, Liam, and others went to a war with vampires” Layla explained anxiously. All the worry that she was hiding in her eyes was now visible in her delicate face.“Vampires exist?” I asked astonished by one other fact that I was blinded to.“Unfortunately, yes and they attacked my pack, Silver Moon. My family and my pack are in grave danger. I don’t know if they are even alive or not. Elijah and others went there as soon as possible to protect them” As the painful reality came out in the open, tears started rolling out of her eyes.“I am sorry to hear that” I hugged her gently and patted her back to show my support. I cant even imagine what she is going through.I knew she was in no condition to talk any further.After a while, she parted from me and wiped her tears from her now ruby face. I took her hand and sat on the most giant bed I have seen in my entire life. I was really amazed by the inter
Rose’s POV;“Layla, is he in some kind of danger?” I asked, with uneasy thought, my heart was thudding against my chest. “He is The Future Werewolf King, he is always in danger” She waved her hand casually like its normal to always be in danger.“What’s the other reason?” I asked curiously.“Whenever he goes, people follow. People stare at him like mad dogs and don’t even get me started with those bimbos who lust over him, all the damn time. He was never interested in that kind of attention. Hence, he keeps his things private. Only a few people have access to his chambers.” Layla explained patiently.We were passing through a gigantic wooden door that was carved to perfection.“That’s Elijah’s room” She pointed toward the giant door as we walked past it. It really took us a while to pass the entire area to reach another door which was nearly as big as Elijah’s door.“So, how many people stay in here, in this very chamber?” I asked as we were standing near the second door.“Just Elija
Rose’s POV;‘Have I seen him somewhere?’“Sister in law, it’s rude to stare” the young guy said, coughing a little to bring me back to reality.Even his voice sounds familiar. Am I going nuts?“Oh, I apologize. It’s just., you look a little familiar” I replied, coughing back in embarrassment.‘A little? Not really! He looks a lot familiar but my darn brain just couldn’t recollect!’ I cursed my beautiful brain like always.“I am pretty sure I have never met you before” he replied nonchalantly.No doubt, the kid was confident but the way he spoke it was straight away rude. Nobody was interested in that miniature sized guy when I have the mighty werewolf king for myself.“I beg your pardon?” I replied, plastering a tight smile.“I wasn’t being rude, sister in law, if that’s what you are concerned about” was his another nonchalant reply.‘Can he read mind? Is this kid special?’ I thought but his next statement dragged me out of my chain of thoughts. “It’s just, they always keep me locked
Rose’s POV;“Why didn’t you change?” She asked confusedly.“Thank you for helping me but I really want her to like me as I am. Elijah accepted me for who I am” I said“I understand and trust me, I really appreciate you being real. Let’s go meet his mother then” She smiled, she was so understanding.She is an angel!We moved towards the great hall again and then through the center, we moved inside another long chamber.After walking for a while, we finally reached near the Royal chamber.“Does Elijah stays here too?”“Nope, Elijah and Cora stays at the first floor”“Entire floor?”“Yeah. You have been given room adjacent to Elijah for now. I will take you there later”“I am afraid I will get lost in this huge castle” I replied“Don’t worry, you will be all fine” She addedShe knocked on the door which looked like it was straight from fairy tale.“Aunt Phebe, can we make your acquaintance?” She asked“Please come inside, my dear Layla” came a melodic voice from inside.She opened the do
