121. Hikari's challenge

[Zeve’s POV] Aunt Helene. I hadn’t interacted much with her. Mother said she spoke little and hated anything that was against royal etiquettes and elegance. Her black hair and crimson eyes gave her a beauty equal to vampires, but it was her tanned skin that differentiated between them. She had a daughter, Ava, nineteen, and a son, Aibek, twenty-five. Both of them took after aunt Helene. Red eyes, but their hairs were silver. Her husband had silver hair and black eyes. They were all a piece of art straight out of the fantasy books. Elegant, talented and shining like jewels. Just by looking at the way they ate, I could say how well they had been brought up. My eyes met princess Ava’s. She smiled faintly, and I smiled back. I didn’t know how or what to feel about aunt Helene and her family. They seemed to be on the neutral side. Neither harmful nor helpful. They were dangerous. People who could conceal their emotions so effortlessly were definitely on my red list. Since there

122. The silent order

[Zeve’s POV] Hikari pulled his Katana from its scabbard and ran his finger over the blunt edge. I looked at his Katana and then into his eyes. “What?” I cocked my eyebrow. He smirked slightly. “What I want to say is if you can snatch my Katana from me in the royal duel, I will teach five of your people my Kazumi sword skills from a to z. But if you fail, luna had to grant one of my wishes. Do you agree…” Amor clenched his jaws with a grit. The table tremored. Glass clinked. The next second, Amor grabbed Hikari’s neck, lifting him in the air. Panicking, a few maids screamed, dropping the plates in their hands. Everyone around the table came to their feet. Jade broke out in tears. I could feel the bloodlust reeking of the two of them and flooding the entire dining room. It was suffocating and pungent, like burning bones and blood. I covered my nose and mouth with my hands, stepping away from them. Morfan and the knights who stood outside the hall rushed in, but didn’t hin

123. Decline the duel

[Zeve’s POV] Although it was awkward, everyone finished their share of food. What else could one expect from a royal dinner where brothers were ready to slit one another’s throat, the family was messed up worse than enemies and where alphas did not know what they should talk about and when? Amor and I got up and only then did others leave. The maids cleaned the hall and the table in pin drop silence. The knights were still positioned in the hall in case something happened after the meal. Amor was talking to Morfan, and I was with mother. Hikari was still sitting in his seat at the table, peering into nothingness. The maids behind him looked at mother. Mother nodded, and she took away Hikari’s plate. “You must be tired. You should rest, Zeve,” mother said. I nodded, “once alpha is done with his work, I will go mother. You worked hard too. You should rest.” “Are you sure?” Mother asked as she glanced at Hikari, and I nodded. Two knights were standing beside me for my protec

124. Manipulating the court

[Zeve’s POV] Morfan looked at Amor. Amor gave a curt nod. “You have the permission to present your views to the court,” Morfan said. Hikari stepped forwards and said. “First, I want to clarify a few things related to the duel and its terms and conditions. Like I said before, I have no ill intentions. I proposed this duel to welcome her highness into our family. It’s not a duel to death, so except for a few cuts and scratches, neither of us should be severely hurt…” Hikari looked at me with a subtle smile, then looked at Amor. “In case his highness feels like the duel is getting deadly, he can immediately call it off and I vow to lower my Katana instantly. It’s a game where all luna needs to do to win is get my Katana from my hand and the same goes for me.” He chuckled, looking at his Katana. “If I were to attack, I know I would hurt our fragile luna, so I will attack to defend myself. This pack had been deprived of mother’s love for years now. I am sure it’s time we experience

125. Hikari's wish for duel

[Zeve’s POV] The tensed scowl on Amor’s face clearly showed how displeased he was about what I said. Morfan reciprocated his alpha’s expressions. I knew he hadn’t given me the permission to make decisions on my own, but everything would go down the drain before something could even start. Convincing Amor would be a formidable task, but I had to do it, anyway. “What is this?” “What does this mean?” “Did she mean to say she accepted the duel with prince Hikari?” “Silence!” Amor said, and the buzzing immediately stopped in the hall. His wrath poured into his deep voice and darkening eyes. “I will request the luna to say what you want in simple words.” Amor said in a tone that I had never heard him use it with me. Right, my friend Amor wasn’t talking to me. It was Alpha Amor. “Regardfully, I accept the duel request of Prince Hikari. But I think I will need some time to prepare for the duel so that I am not defeated in just one slash,” I said. Amor stared at me with cold eyes.

126. Convincing him

[Zeve’s POV] He held my shoulders as we parted from the hug. “Hit you?” He took a few seconds to process what I said. He licked his lips and gave the most awkwardly baffled look. “Why would I hit my luna? My wife? Why would I even think of such a horrendous thing? I take pride in calling myself a man. Why would I do something so unmanly?” Amor ran his fingers through his hair. “Forget about being a man. Even devils respect the feminine power. We are mere mortals. Real men protect their women from monsters. They don’t become one for her.” I dropped my gaze to the floor, holding back the flood in my eyes. “Why did you think that I’d hit you? Did I unconsciously do something to make you feel that way? Were actions not right? Please tell me, I’ll correct myself.” I licked my lips and shook my head, “no… you didn’t. It’s just… in my head.” I forced a smile, barely holding my tears. “Has today’s stress taken a toll on you? Should I call Lucella? Did your mind go for a jog? Do you

127. His want, his need

[Zeve’s POV] I dropped my heavy gaze at his emerald jabot brooch, pressing my lips. Before I could let out the feverish breath, Amor lifted me off the ground, twirled me and made me sit on a table. “Amor?” I breathed him in as he leaned over me. I leaned backwards, propping myself on my elbows. His hand was on my knee, then on my thigh, and soon caressing my inner thighs. My breaths fastened as the heat from his hand seeped to my core. His other hand went up my back as he pulled up my torso closer to his. I pulled my shoulders closer to my neck, realising that he’d kiss my throat. But before he did, I placed my palm on his lips. “R-revenge kiss. It was a revenge kiss. You remember how many kisses you took from me that day in the name of one kiss? So this was one of them…” I said, averting my eyes from him. What the hell am I doing? He slid my hand down his lips. His warm fingers intertwined with mine. He leaned closer to my ear and whispered, “stop taking such sweet and inno

128. Sword training begins

[Zeve’s POV] ‘Even though I am teaching you the sacred sword skills of the Enver pack, I want you to promise me you will never use these skills ever in your life and if you did, you’ll see my dead body.’ That was what Chaz said before teaching me sword fighting from the basics. ‘B-but why… are you teaching them to me when… I can’t even use them?’ I asked him and all he did back then was give me a smile. ‘Promise me, Zeve. This is our ancestral treasure. Promise me you will never use these skills, not even when your life is in danger. Never means never, and you will not break this promise as long as I live.’ He kept on insisting that I never use those skills. Back then, I was so madly in love with him that this was my reply. ‘I promise you, Chaz. I will never use these skills. I’d never want my mate to die because I wanted to save my life. I’d rather die than let anything hurt you. Moreover, you are always there to protect me, so I don’t need to remember these skills.’ Maybe I h

129. Crimson melancholy

[Zeve’s POV] “Who taught you swords?” I expected that question from him. There was no point in hiding anything from him, anyway. “Chaz Enver,” I said. He frowned. “Why would he?” I shrugged. “I don’t know. Chaz taught me the basics for three months and then he made me promise to never use what he taught me ever in my life even if I was dying.” Amor thoughtfully contemplated my reflection in his sword’s blade. He tightened his jaws. “I shouldn’t have given him such a simple death. Damn it!” Amor growled, gritting his teeth. “Why didn’t you tell me you know the basics?” “Because I didn’t know what he taught me were the basics. I thought what he taught me was some random sword techniques. I didn’t intend to hide anything from you, but we had never had a conversation about swords before. You assumed I didn’t know the basics of swords. You never asked me if I did or not.” I said matter-of-factly. “That’s… well, that’s right. I hate to admit this, but that bastard taught you the b

130. Reasons I saved her

[Amor’s POV] “Morfan! Where are the things we expropriated from the Enver pack?” I asked Morfan while we were going through the reports the dukes submitted about the current situation all over the pack. “You asked to burn them,” Morfan said. “As if you’d.” I looked at him. He smirked faintly. “Of course, I wouldn’t. There can be important secrets in those documents that can come in handy in the future, alpha. Enver pack was the most secluded pack even though it occupied less land. It was strong and its military was exceptional to have protected their pack from our first three attacks. Then those letters too…” Morfan was right. Enver pack had held back our three attacks. I wasn’t that interested in their land or territory because they were on the other side of the world, so all three times, I sent a troop along with one that aimed to confiscate Nialruz. Even though it wasn’t a full-fledged army that attacked the Enver pack, the troop I sent comprised extremely powerful warrior
