All Chapters of Stolen: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Fynn’s POVI was on the verge of losing my wolf when the call came through the pack link that the princess and the new king were at our border. I couldn’t believe it! Shifting on my way out of the door, I ran as fast as I could and reached them in record time.“Your majesty, your royal highness.” I held out my hand to greet the new king.“I think you should put on some pants before we talk.” He frowned and when my eyes met hers and I saw her bright red blushing cheeks, I looked down and realized that in my rush to get to them I had forgotten to bring pants! Thankfully, one of my warriors had some I could use and I quickly jumped at them, feeling like the world’s biggest idiot. I apologized profusely to the king against my wolf’s wishes, but he was just so happy to see her that his anger at me didn’t last very long. We felt like a teenager in love at the sight of her. She was looking paler than she had been, but she was also looking healthier. She had put on a little bit of weight sinc

Viktoria’s POV“Look, mom, I know dad spoke to you about something he thinks he saw, but you don’t have to say anything. I’m not going to …” Her hand rested on my arm as I climbed out of the tub.“Sweetheart, he’s just worried about you.” I didn’t like seeing the frown on her face. For the first time in my momma’s life, she was happy. I can see that she really is. I didn’t want to be the reason anything bothered her or upset her, even if I knew that life would happen at some time and ruin what I wanted, I still didn’t want it.“Mom, I really didn’t see what he saw. Dad is just being …” I couldn’t believe I was going to say it, but it had to be said. “He’s just being an overprotective father. There is nothing going on between me and Fynn.” She helped me get into my nightdress, and I could see that she still wasn’t happy.“Sweetheart, you have to understand that your father knows about these things. You don’t really know the beasts. You don’t know what they are like.” I could understand

Viktoria’s POVAfter everything that’s happened, I found myself almost wishing I could just go back to my life before Fynn. It was a simple life and there was the possibility of being chosen as some idiot’s concubine, but I was well on my way to becoming a guard, I was sure of it. At least then, all I wished for was to meet my father. Now that he was in my life and I was declared an actual royal, I missed the simpler days. It wouldn’t have mattered if I had never slept on a damn royal bed or if someone helped me to get dressed. I just wanted to meet my father once. That was … Okay, fine. I’m lying to myself. I would never have admitted it out loud, but I secretly dreamt of my father telling me how much he wanted me to be a part of the family. I never meant for my grandfather and my uncle to die so I could get my secret wish.“Dad, you said you wanted to make some changes,” We were walking down the passage on our way out somewhere and I had no idea where the hell he wanted to take me,

Viktoria’s POV “I don’t understand.” I frowned, not entirely sure why people kept telling me to reject him. “Okay, I reject you.” I shrugged with a deep frown on my forehead.“No, there is a certain thing you need to say …” But before we could continue our conversation, I could feel my father’s presence right behind me.“What are you doing here?!” He hissed and I almost burst out laughing when Fynn rolled his eyes at my father.“Not that it’s any of your concern, but my wolf took over control. He is not allowing me to reject your daughter and she doesn’t know what to say.” Fynn threw his arms in the air in frustration and I still felt confused. What would a couple of words said in a specific way do that would change what Fynn felt for me? In the deepest corners of my heart, something w

Viktoria’s POVFynn couldn’t come into the castle, which meant I had to go beyond the wall to get this rejection done. That was easier said than done and as my father was carrying me out, I wished I hadn’t agreed to this damn thing! I had never in my life, not even when I had some of my toughest fights at dhampir college, hurt this badly. Although the doctor assured my father that I was fine physically, it felt as if every damn bone in my body had been crushed beyond repair. We reached the enormous wooden doors that led out beyond the wall and my father stopped giving me a momentary breather. He explained that it was of the utmost importance that I didn’t show Fynn how much pain I was really in. It could jeopardize the rejection process if he thought I was in pain.I still didn’t understand all of this, but I was willing to do whatever I had to so I could just get through this. Why did I have to go through this?! Why would beasts go through this? Did their goddess hate them that much?
