71: Vigo's family

"Are you truly my father?" Agnella blurted, staring straight at him.Beta Hamza exhaled and moved closer to her with his chair."I can't really call myself a father, I've never performed any fatherly duty." He sighed."Why did you choose the dungeon over trying to find my mother?" Agnella questioned, what he was discussing with Alpha Draven was now making more sense to her."Be... because it was the right thing to do," Beta Hamza replied."Did you even care about me in the first place? Did you ever wonder if I was safe?""I... I knew you were gonna be safe with your m...""How sure are you that she protected me the way she should?" Agnella cut in sharply and stood up. She backed him as tears formed in her eyes.Beta Hamza slowly stood up behind her."Did... Did something happen?""A lot happened, my mother once told me you were dead but why am I here with you?""She probably told you that so you wouldn't think I abandoned you, she did it for your sake." Beta Hamza said."Are you sidin

72: Vigo's family 2

Just then, the door busted open and Beta Vigo came in with Beta Arrigo, both struggling to stand properly on their feet. On seeing Alpha Draven staring up at him from where he sat, Vigo quickly let go of Beta Arrigo, he cleaned his eyes with his hands to make sure he was seeing properly. "Bo...boss!" He called transfixed. "You are here, I need something to drink." Alpha Draven said taking his face away. "What- what are you doing here?" Beta Vigo pushed his brother away as he tried to reach Alpha Draven. "Why are you here?" "What? Do I need your permission to be here?" Alpha Draven scoffed as Beta Vigo came to stand before him. "No, no not that. You didn't tell me you were coming, I could have..." "Could have done what? You look wasted, I think it's better if you go to bed." "No, I'm not drunk. I barely drank anything," Beta Vigo took his hand to his mouth and cleaned it as if trying to make the evidence of what he drank disappear. "He drank about 14 bottles today, I was shoc

73: The apology

"To dethrone my father. Why else? I'll also have all my half siblings beheaded just like my father did to his as soon as he took the crown." Draven said, leaving Pietro in bigger shock."What? Why do you look shocked? It's no longer a secret that my father had you send your guard to kill his siblings. That is after Killing his father to become the king.""Your... Your Highness, what are you trying to say?" Beta Pietro adjusted well on his chair."I just need you on my side that's all, is that too big of a request?"Beta Pietro adjusted his chair again on hearing Prince Draven's request. "You know I am one of the king's men, I am not allowed to be on any prince's side." Beta Pietro cleared his voice."But you broke those rules centuries ago by siding with my father."Beta Pietro stayed quiet at his words, not knowing how to defend himself. "I will revolt if you don't come to my side," Prince Draven added. "I'm sure you don't want that happening."He stood up and walked out of his off

74: Threats

"I heard... I heard that you are thinking of revolting." "Yes, I do, any problem?" Prince Draven turned to face him. The king came down from his chair and came to stand before him. "Are sure about that? What you are about to do is called treason." The king moved around him as he spoke. "Well, it all depends on your decision. I will remove you from the throne and then kill all your other children if you don't do as I wish," Prince Draven stated. "Your wish." The king stopped in his face. "Yes, and you know what that is. You know what my wish is, it's very simple. Make my mate a princess, have your first mistress and her family go to a different pack, and also move the rest of your children and their mothers far from the palace. The palace is not safe enough for the real owners, dangers keep lurking around." The king cracked and laughed a little at Prince Draven's request. "Is that all? If I grant your request, will you really give up on revolting?" "Of course Father, I'm not

Continuation

Draven came into his bed chambers to find Agnella asleep on the bed, she has been sleeping a lot - more peacefully since the crowning, guess the crowning got her all worked up. Draven went to the bed and gently sat down beside her, he took one of her hands into his, a new habit he developed. He gently rubbed her hand as he stared at her and it didn't take long for her to wake up. "Hey," he said once she opened her eyes. "Hi, you are here," she tried sitting up but Draven held her back. "No, you should stay still." "Why?" "You'll need the rest. I just want to tell you something." "What is that?" "We'll be returning home." "Home? I don't understand, like going back?" "Yes," Draven bobbed his head in agreement and Agnella sat up. "Really? Why? Why so suddenly?" Agnella questioned. "Well, we came here for the crowning right? So I figured out that we should return since you have been crowned. Don't you miss it there? Or do you want us to stay longer?" "No, let's go back. I'll

Chapter 76

**Final Chapter**Just like Mistress Nicia had implied, she left and never came back, even when Agnella was about to give birth. She never returned, even when Agnella waited for her. Agnella eventually gave up after waiting for so long. She began telling stories to her now four-year-old son about her best friend, Nicia, who had gone on a journey to discover herself. Mistress Nicia was simply tired of being attached to someone else's mate. She was tired of watching the man she loved and adored love another.It was heartbreaking, but she took a bold step to walk out and discover herself. She also hoped to find her true fated mate on her journey of self-discovery. The other mistresses also gave up on Alpha Draven after Agnella gave birth, and they left the palace soon after.The mistresses were not the only ones who gave up; Araceli also gave up on trying to get her daughter to the demon's side after watching her get pregnant for the second time by Alpha Draven. She was pregnant with a b
