Cairo POV:I had to leave the room. Being around her is just making me want her even more. She is so feisty, I can see why Castro fell in love with her. She has this side of dominance that I felt telling from her aura she had to come from a line of alphas. I could smell success in the air. I cannot wait till I get her powers. Once I get them, I will have everything: the girl, the power, and the throne. It will be a win-win situation, especially when I destroy Castro.When I kill him, he will be six feet under, and I will enjoy dancing on his grave. His parents are the reason that my parents had to die. It was the night that rouges came through our territory. We were all in the fight battle, including Castro parents. It was one of the toughest battles of the century. Each time we kill rouges more was coming. We all spread out. I was on the north side of the territory, killing another rogue. When I finish, I head back to the pack house; I was getting close till I smell the scent of my p

Castro POV:My Queen took away from me again. I am beyond piss; it's been months. There are no leads on Winter. I’m venting out to where people are fearing me again. I don’t want to lose control again. I’m between a rock and a hard place. I was trying to hold on to my sanity with each day that Winter is away from me. I feel myself slipping deeper into the darkness. The worst part is that Goliath wants to come to the surface and take over.I try so hard to hold him back that most days I’m feeling myself being drained that I have to stay in bed. Other days, I feel my anger taking over. I want to just kill someone. Since the day Winter disappears, I was sending warriors out each day to go search for her. They always come back with no leads. I feel the pain in my heart; I need my mate here with me. I need to feel her close to me.Emmily needs her here too, since now she has given birth to a baby girl name Nyra. This should have been a celebration for the whole kingdom, but we are feeling

Castro POV:I woke up with my heading throbbing. I sit up to see that I was on the couch in my office. I look around to see that Ms. Rose, Solomon, and some warriors were around my desk talking. Suddenly the memories were coming back to me, everything that I growled having everyone turn to face me. Ms. Rose was the first to come over to approach me.“Castro, I‘m glad you are awake. How are you feeling?” she asks.“I feel like shit, and I want to kill that bastard Mathias” I said, growling.“Castro, you going to need to calm down. I know you want to go kill him, but you need to wait,” Solomon said.“For what? That son of a bitch took my mate and has the audacity to call himself my friend. When I get my hands on him, he going to wish he was never born”I started heading to the door, to go find Mathias “ Castro wait, do nothing wickless. If you kill him, we can never find Winter” Solomon shouted.That stopped me. I turn around to see Solomon approaching me, then he spoke. “I understand y

Cairo POV:I cannot believe that idiot took the bait and got set up the worst part: he had the audacity to call me. Now our cover was blown. I must figure out my next move in all of this. This plan is already going south thanks to that jackass that Castro is clever at finding out things. I would have rather held out a little longer, making Castro weaker than he is, which would make it easier for me to take him out without breaking a sweat.Thanks to that jackass Mathias, I must work three times harder to defeat Castro. After all he is the Alpha King, an Alpha King has is well-known for their power and strength that is why no one will go against them. if you do, you are asking for death, that is why I take my chance on bringing Castro down so I could be the ruler.Now it is planning time, I mindlink all of my men told them to meet me in the front. When I got there, I see all of them gather, that when I shouted “ Gentlemen” they all turn there attention to me I continue “ As you

Winter P.O.VFor the past few days, I had taken notice of how things are around here. First, I had been hearing the men outside training for hours. Then there are other things that have been going on. They moved me from my room upstairs and now I’m on the first floor. The reason for it is unknown, but I believe Cairo is getting paranoid because he knows Castro will stop at nothing from rescuing me.Another thing I notice is that when the men bring me food, I no longer taste wolfbane in it. Is it I or the men are becoming careless? Either way, I’m glad for it because it is helping me gain back my strength, also the powers that I’m almost at the reaching of them. I can feel Marceline excitement. We motivate each other by pushing one another with our workouts until we reach our full potential.While I’m doing my workout in the outside world, she in the werewolf world, jumping over hurdles and whatever the moon goddess can throw at her. When the time comes to fight, we will be unstoppable
