Catherine's POVMy eyes widened when he revealed his feelings. I stared at him in shock as he kept on talking and didn't know what to tell him. He looked hurt as he spoke and I didn't even know what to say to him.“What should I do for you to just look my way? You never look my way. You only see my brother and it hurts, Catherine. It hurts a lot.” He said and the door opened then Lucas walked in.When Lucas walked in, Alpha Darin sighed and walked out. I stared at his retreating figure in shock and massaged my forehead as everything he said kept repeating in my head. It was a whole lot to take in and the shock was still evident in my face. The way he said it signified that he meant the words from every corner of his being.I licked my lips and shifted on the bed. Lucas, who was also watching his retreating figure, walked up to me.“What is the matter? What happened between you two?” He asked and I ruffled my hair.“It's just…” I trailed off, not knowing where to start explaining to Lu

Alpha Darin's POVI teleported back to my room and paced forth and back as I thought about why Catherine would choose me instead of Darwin. When she had said that, I couldn't hide my shock because one thing I knew was that she hated me and wanted nothing to do with me, so why would she suddenly accept that I should be the one to mark her.I thought she would at least consider the fact that Darwin was her mate and use that to agree but she didn't and she chose me. This was still confusing. I ruffled my hair as I thought of ways to comprehend all that was actually going on but nothing seemed to come out of it.“Do not even think of marking her, Darin. She doesn't belong to you. She belongs to your brother. She is his mate. Don't cheat your brother.” Eric, my wolf, complained and I became annoyed.Why was he always behaving like everyone else? He was my wolf for goodness sake and should at least see things from my point of view.“Darwin doesn't like Catherine, Eric. He feels nothing for

Catherine's POVWhen I turned, I was shocked to see the beta. He had an unreadable expression on his face as he walked up to me. He stopped in front of me and stared daggers into my eyes.“Where are you going to?” He asked and I looked at him in surprise.Before I could open my mouth to answer him, he grabbed Sandra and punched her. Sandra fell to the floor and passed out immediately. I gasped and covered my mouth in shock.I turned and attempted to make a run but he grabbed me and placed a handkerchief on my nose. The next thing I knew, I slept off.I gasped and my eyes fluttered open. I looked at my body and it had been drenched from head to toes. I had been awoken by a splash of water on my face. I looked around the dimly lit room and tried to make out my environment and to know where I was.I looked to the side and saw that Sandra was still unconscious. A feeling of fear crept over me and I looked around the place fearfully. I tried to move my body but realized that I was tied fro

Alpha Darin's POVI returned to my room and punched the wall angrily. I was angry at everything that was going on; angry that I couldn't find a solution to the problem facing us and mostly angry at myself for falling for their trick. How could I be so stupid not to realize that Catherine was up to something? Why didn't I find her sudden niceness suspicious? She even offered to have a drink with me. Damn it! I should have known! I should have known that it was all a facade to trick me. I should have seen it coming and avoided it but I was blinded by her niceness and allowed her to trick me.I ruffled my hair angrily and punched the wall again.Darwin appeared in the room and I faced him.“I met the seer and asked for her help. She said she isn't able to see anything and that the moon goddess was probably stopping her from seeing the main thing.” He announced.“So, there was no improvement?” I asked and he shook his head.I became more furious and growled angrily. I was angry and worri

Catherine's POVI awoke with a very sharp pain in my abdomen. After he had threatened to kill my baby and me in order to get the throne, I remembered confronting him about it, even though my blood ran cold at the statement. I had told him he wasn't going to get away with what he was doing, and the last thing I remembered was him placing a handkerchief on my nose and… here I am.I looked to the side and saw Sandra. She was awake and seated with the same choker, wrapped around her neck. Her face was expressionless and drained of all color, and I felt bad for putting her in this mess.With a sigh, I ignored my pain and turned to face her. She was a wolf as well and I believed she could message Lucas and tell him all that was going on. That way, he would inform the Alphas and they'll come find us, I'm sure about that.“Sandra,” I called and she looked up at me. “Please, try and mind link Lucas or the Alphas and tell them where we are. Tell them it's the beta that's responsible for all tha
