TIANA’S POV   As soon as I opened my eyes, I glanced sharply at the wall clock and gasped when I saw it was mid-day already. I have been sleeping for over ten hours. I dragged the bedsheet over my naked body and sat upright as memories of the night before came flooding back. Jerk. He obviously hasn’t returned, and I don’t want to face him yet. I was still cuffed to the fucking bed, I groaned as I realized that. How was I going to take my bath or do anything with my hands tied to the fucking bed? Fuck Ryder. I was lost in thoughts of the events of the last days when a knock on the door pulled me out of my reverie. I pulled the bedsheets higher over my chest. “Come in,” I say dryly. My face brightened when I noticed it was Sadie and Nora, accompanied by my dear friend, Layla. Layla rushed to hug me before Nora and Sadie took turns doing the same. I have been in the werewolf palace with Sadie and Nora all th

TIANA’S POV   The girls had to leave to attend to other things while Layla stayed back with me. If not anything, I was grateful that Layla did not get punished and she was here with me at this time. Ryder is being unreasonable. How long would I be handcuffed here? It’s so unfair that I am chained to his bed while he goes around freely. I have learnt my lesson already and keeping me here was just double punishment. I’d tried to talk to Adrian to see if I could avoid not being handcuffed again, but that was impossible. He would do any other thing than go against the order of the alpha prince. “I wish I didn’t have to go back to Eclipse pack,” Layla says dryly and I chuckled softly. “Why? You don’t miss your family?” I asked her. She shrugged “I do, but I like being here, not just because my best friend is here and is about to be the luna queen, but because I actually like it here….” she laughs and p

I could feel someone desperately trying to reach me through the mind link so I gave them access. There is a limit to which the mind link travels but as the alpha prince, my mind link could travel ten times farther than a normal werewolf would.“Ryder, there has been an attack on our guys guarding the scene where the luna was found dead days ago,” Louis informs me through mind link.I cursed “Where are you Louis? And what is the situation like?” I asked him.“I am headed there right now, there was a breech in our communication. I will let you know how things turn out when I get there. It’s probably better you stay back…” “I’m coming. In the mean time, get as many warriors as you can within the western wolves. Leave Eclipse warriors out of it. I’m still unsure as to how many of them we can trust. This is majorly their handiwork,” I instruct, cutting

My hands were shaky when I was done dressing. I stood in the mirror, trying to give myself a little pep talk but nothing seemed to be working. I know I didn’t need the king to arrive at the table before me, that would be disrespectful, and I was hoping to make a good second impression since our first encounter didn’t go too well.I hooked my earring and stepped out. Thomas was already waiting at the door to escort me, so we made our way to the royal castle, my heart banging in my chest as we drew closer.I wasn’t going to let Thomas or any other person see how scared I was so I kept my chin up until we got to the dining table. I still remember the last time I was here and how much things have changed in such a such time, like I had a wolf now that I could dialogue with.I almost squealed in excitement when I saw Elsie at the table seated next to a gentleman. I rushed to hug her and she was equally as excited to see me.“Come sit he

I paced the lengths of the warehouse, throwing my fists into walls occasionally and cursing. I have learnt a lot in the past few hours than I have learnt in almost two years since I have been on this case.All these killings was connected to the death of Jayce walker, whose killer we are still unsure of, but without a doubt, the killings within the western wolves was a movement that the alpha of Eclipse pack started in other to get justice for the death of his son and find out who was behind his death. He got help from the rogue king who would do anything to cause harm to werewolves and their packs, hence the involvement of magic.It made sense how Jordan had been able to get his hands on the potion he intended to use to kill me. The moron should have known that mere magic couldn’t take down the alpha prince, but he is just as naïve and clueless as his father who thinks killing innocent alpha’s was the right move to take to avenge the death of his son.
