THIRTY-ONE

I tried to free myself from his grasp but he held me tighter and continued to sniff me. He lingered on my neck for too long, the spot where my mate’s mark should be and he slowly starts to nibble on it. My reaction as usual was spontaneous. My own breathing had become heavier and I didn’t know when a soft moan escaped my lips. Oh shit. I quickly fling my eyes open and turned in his arms so that I was facing him, which was a wrong move. His face is so close to mine and that look in his eyes…I swallowed as we stared at each other for what seemed like forever, without saying a word. He still looked tired but he was having a hard time sleeping and he looked like he had something he wanted to tell me, but he doesn’t say a word. He is searching my face too.“Who is Adeline?” I blurted out.He froze, a deep frown crossing his hard features and a vein twitching in his neck. He released my waist and moved back, and the air is suddenl

THIRTY-TWO

We left the werewolf palace for the first time together. It’s also the first time I would be leaving the gates since I first arrived and I was thrilled. We rode in a Rolls Royce phantom, myself and Ryder at the back with the driver at the front.I looked at the view through the windows, happy for this little time out. It feels like I’m going away from home though, yes, I think it’s safe to call it ‘home’ now. I feel safe here, that is reason enough right?Jordan tried calling again, but I didn’t take his call of course. He sounded desperate on that call, and I know I shouldn’t care but I just hope he is alright. I have no feelings for him, and I should hate him for humiliating me but it must cost a lot for an alpha to beg in that manner. If he was not desperate, he wouldn’t have sounded that way. The first time he called, he had been very authoritative, maybe he was acting all sober now because he knew he was dealing with

THIRTY-THREE

*Ryder’s POV* Anger and rage washed through me. What manner of people ostracized a five year old for a murder she didn’t commit and made no attempt to investigate the case? and to think I deployed some warriors to the western regions in other to help them, meanwhile they did that to a poor child. They don’t deserve any help or protection from the royals, if they could do that to my mate then I wasn’t going to turn a blind eye. I’m going to make them pay, starting from that cuckold of an alpha that calls himself Simon. I picked up my phone and dialed Adrian’s number, ignoring the pleading looks that Tiana was sending my way. Why do I still feel like she may have something for that bastard Jordan? She doesn’t want to put all the blame on him and I don’t feel comfortable about that. I brought Tiana here for this purpose, I wanted to get to know her, I wanted to hear all about her past from her own lips rathe

THIRTY-FOUR

*Tiana’s POV* I didn’t speak to Ryder until we got back to the house and he made no efforts starting a conversation. I don’t know how to feel honestly. Whenever I think we are making progress, we hit a hard rock and end up back to square one. Again. I opened up to Ryder, told him all about my past and he awarded me with silence when I asked about his ex-mate.When I told him about my past life it was not because I wanted him to withdraw the help from the western wolves, far from it. He brought me to this really nice place and I felt we were finally beginning to connect, I thought he was finally making an effort, but boy was I wrong. He’s always going to be a self-centered arrogant prick. He’s never going to let himself loose around me, and he is never going to tell me about Adeline.I wish Elsie would just tell me instead, but she insists it’s something the prince has to tell me himself, which is

THIRTY-FIVE

I was fuming with anger and pacing the lengths of the room, still very much pissed at Susan and overwhelmed by what I’d just learned. Ryder was still in love with Adeline. That explained why he did not put his mark on me, the son of a bitch was toiling with me. I hate Susan but I know she had a point. Ryder is an alpha prince, I may have witnessed how domineering and possessive he can be but a man like him would have marked me already except he was still in love with his ex-mate. That explained why her topic was always so sensitive and why he would not talk about her even after I told him about myself. I saw how affected he was by what I told him and his immediate actions. Yes, I fear for the western wolves but my intentions were not to make things worse for them. I can imagine how this would affect them knowing the royals were no longer behind them. Ryder says he would rather investigate Jayce’s death but I don’t see how this is going to benefit this case. E

THIRTY-SIX

The first time I met Elsie and heard her voice, I thought she was going to be a spoiled princess, I didn’t envision that a girl like her would want to be friends with me or that she would be willing to grant me favors, but over the couple of weeks I realize I may not have been able to handle a lot of things around here if it were not for her. I know this is a big risk for her, and her brother would not take it likely with her if he found out that she aided my escape from his house but she was willing to do it for me and although she said she was doing it because of her brother too, I am yet to understand what she meant by that. Ryder would look for me but he wouldn’t be missing anything. I was so sure of it. Elsie took me to her room in the royal palace. Her room was on the fifth floor, and she explained that Louis's was on the floor just above hers. I didn’t get a grand tour of the palace like the others that we came together because the prince chose to keep me lock

THIRTY-SEVEN

“Who would have thought you were capable of gaining any weight!” Layla screamed and enveloped me in a tight hug. It’s been few weeks since I last saw her and it feels like forever. She spins me around to check me out after releasing me from her rather tight hug, her eyes a little misty. It feels just like yesterday when she was comforting me and doing everything to convince me that Jayce’s death was not my fault. I feel less guilty about his death since I have been in the royal palace because there was no constant reminder of what happened and people at the royal palace didn’t look at me and see a killer. “I missed you so much Layla,” I said and she hugged me again, dapping at her eyes. “I miss you too. I can smell your wolf now,” she says excitedly and I nodded my head. The potion I took was supposed to last an hour according to Elsie but it wore off after thirty minutes. “Yes Layla,” I nodded my head. There was a lot to catch up with but we needed t

THIRTY-EIGHT

RYDER’S POV The alpha of the Western wolves is worried sick, and scared to death that he has somehow managed to anger the royals again. My dad called me to his office to discuss why I had a change in mind after deploying some warriors to the western regions but I didn’t give him my main reason. I have been handling this case for the past eighteen months and I was making all the decisions and calling the shots. My dad could care less about the Western wolves. He inherited the hatred towards them from his own father, which I have been trying to curb. No matter how hard they tried to get in our good books, my dad was not someone that could easily be won over. Since the incident with Tiana, I have avoided him as much as I could which hasn’t been all that much, because I still had to attend these really long meetings with him present and his signature was still needed on a lot of things before they could pass. That

THIRTY-NINE

TIANA’S POV “Hey babe,” The lanky dude that had to be Layla’s boyfriend kissed her before pulling her into a tight hug.“I missed you so much,” Layla swooned, then turned to introduce me to him. “This is Tiana, my best friend. Tee, meet Luke, my boyfriend,” she says with a wide smile.Luke shook my hands a little awkwardly, I’m not sure why. “Layla tells me about you. It’s nice to finally meet you,” he says.“It’s nice to meet you too Luke. Layla has nothing but sweet things to say about you too,” I tell him and he smiled.Luke seems like a chilled guy, and a lot different than that player Logan. I can’t seem to figure out why he doesn’t feel so comfortable around me, or maybe it was just my imagination.Daystar pack is not as bad as people made them seem. They don’t like intruders no dou

FORTY

RYDER’S POV How could she? How is it possible that she walked out of this palace without anyone seeing her? Unless someone aided her escape, and if I find out who did this, I would not have any mercy on them. If I find her, then she is going to be punished. Seems like I gave her too much liberty.I should have known. For fuck’s sake how did I manage to allow her so much privilege around here? What if something bad happened to her? What if she was in danger right now? How would I live with myself if she harmed herself or if I eventually do not see her again?I know for a fact that she is safe. If she was harmed or in some sort of trouble, I would have felt it. She left on her own. How could she do this? How? It feels like I would go crazy any minute if I do not see her, or even hear from her. I am mad and scared at the same time. This cannot be happening to me, not after Adeline.What if she went
