◼Nikolas POV◼ I couldn’t believe what had happened under my nose. Rose had taken Charles as a captive. She dared to kidnap my right hand. If Rose were a man, she would have huge ox balls. I give her she’s brave; she fears nothing. I didn’t know her plan, but I feared for Charles’s safety after what she did with my servants. “Excuse me, Your Majesty,” one of my guards said. Nodding, he approaches my desk. Bowing, he sets some files. I didn’t ask for documentation, so what was all this about? Leaving me alone, I walk over and check the contents inside. Frowning, I look at the files. It was the information I have asked one of my hackers to look for. It was information about old clans that

◼Rose POV◼ When I followed the blond chick, I perceived she was someone from the hunting association. From the moment I saw her dancing with Nikolas, I knew who she was. There were no blonde vampires. Now the bitch wished to run away after planting a damn bomb in the hall. She had ruined my night. Once I could capture her, I beat her up. Especially her face. I had caught her half alive. I wasn’t planning on letting Nikolas know, though. So I asked Jordan to help me and get some information. I know Jordan would get some and immediately. He was the best in torturing. We didn’t use our powers during the attack because we reveal what we indeed are if we do. Even though some hunters already know, they don’t know me. They must know about the queen of rogues, but not her name and who she is.

◼Rose POV◼ “Put me down!” I yelled. I was having enough of Nikolas. I hated I couldn’t use my powers. I felt so vulnerable with him. Why did fate have to play us like this? Reaching his bedroom, Nikolas throws me on the bed and straddles me. “Let go,” I said, struggling. My hands were over my head. He was pressing his body against mine. Gulping, I look at him. He was serious; he was making me aware of how close he was. “You know you have been pulling my hair since the moment we met, “Nikolas said, “I think it’s time to teach you a lesson.” “W-what? W-wait, what are you doing?” I asked.

◼Rose POV◼ The moment Alpha Maximus told me we had to talk, I knew something was up. This attack meant something terrible was happening or was about to. I was eager to know what it was. Following him, I signal Liam to stay behind. He knew I wouldn’t be in trouble, and Alpha Maximus wouldn’t hurt me. Following him for a while, we finally reach a safe place to talk. We had to walk for about twenty-five minutes; we were far from the palace. “So, what do you want to talk about? I guess this attack isn’t for anything,” I said, smiling. “Woman,” Alpha Maximus grunted as he grabbed me from the neck, “I thought it was pure lies, but now I can smell him on you.” Eyes wide, I understood what he w

◼Liam POV◼ When Rose left for the ball, I never expected hunters would attack her. I’ve been trying to avoid the hunters. They couldn’t know who Rose was; now they know. I know that when they see her, they will know who she is. Rose is the spitting image of her mother. The deceased queen of the Kingdom of Gaels. The Kingdom of Gaels perished decades ago, under the hands of the hunters. They killed the royal family after some spies penetrated and lived with us for several years. The reason was simple; they had come to get what Rose’s mother had. Rose was born into a family of six. Her mother, Queen Elena, her father King Eros, and her three brothers. Rose was a year old when the hunters attacked us. She barely remembers her family. Rose’s mother requested me to flee away with Rose. She
