LINA ROYALEI smiled as I looked at Leonie. She looked so shocked that I was naked. I winked at her slightly.“You’ve never seen a naked woman?” I asked softly.She shook her head, and then, I realised, she was about to faint. I rushed over to her, and held her hard. She was hyperventilating, and sweating despite the cold weather. She opened her lips, and knew she was about to scream, but I stabilised her.“Breathe,” I said softly.I had been wrong. My nakedness had not made her worried, but the fact that I had shifted from wolf to human within the space of a minute was something that she hadn’t been able to come to terms with.It took a couple of minutes for her breathing to come back to normalcy, and I saw her eyes flick in recognition. She was calmer now. She tried to pull away from me, and I let her.“You… the wolf… You were the wolf?” She asked in shock.I nodded slowly. “Yes, I was. I believe that you saw the wolves transforming into humans on your first day here. Everyone here

ALPHA GUNNOLFI stood in the clearing in my wolf form with my warriors flanked around me. My wolf was becoming slightly uncontrollable and howling repeatedly in the field. His mood was enough for my human soul to be anxious. I was actually going through it.Using my wolf eyes, I scanned the length from where I stood, listening for any sound of life, but I heard nothing. I couldn’t even scent her smell. It was as if she had disappeared into thin air which was not possible.I howled wildly, the rock beneath my feet breaking into pebbles that flew through the horizon. I was beyond annoyed, but I couldn’t keep staying here either. I needed to go back to the palace in case there was something that needed my attention. But, the real reason was that I didn’t want my mother to know that the human was my mate.‘Gabriel, scout for her. I want her back, do you understand?’ I mind-linked.‘Yes, Alpha.’I howled once more. Where could the damn woman had gone? Who had helped her escape? It didn’t m

LEONIEI sat down on the little office desk beside the window. It was bare. There was nothing to read here. There was nothing to do, and there was no-one to talk to. I placed my head in my hands. I don’t understand anything anymore. It’s like my brain is shutting down on its own. I sighed as I looked up at the blurred paintings. Whatever happiness I had been feeling yesterday had evaporated. My fingers lightly drummed on the desk as I thought about everything that had happened to me so far right from the moment I had stepped down from the plane. Nothing here was normal, or worth staying a month for. It all defiled nature. I still couldn’t wrap my mind around the fact that humans could turn into wolves. It seemed like a giant horror movie, and I hated that so much. I hated that I was stuck here for no reason. I let my fingers slide over my tangled hair. How could I believe the words of one of them. Though, I really didn’t have a choice, but I didn’t want to stay here anymore. This r

LINA ROYALEGabriel had not been responsive to my charms, and to top it up, we had been interrupted by my son before we could do anything. I was also curious about what Gunnolf wanted, and informed Gabriel to incite my son where necessary as regards the human girl.Coming out of the room, Tina informed me that my son had not been able to sleep almost all night, and he had literally being acting like a maniac, opening and closing things while looking like he was searching for Leonie.The information rocked me so hard. I was so annoyed with Gunnolf. Why does he keep hiding things from me, and what exactly do I need to do to have him come out of this bubble he had succeeded in putting himself in. This time, I wasn’t going to hear his nonsense, and he was going to tell me what exactly was up.Now, I was presently standing at the side, my eyes spitting fire as I asked him a hard question. I watched as his hands slowly slid away from Gabriel. Gabriel panted, and that only increased my ire o

LEONIEHow could she do this?I had a little hope that she was my way out of this place, and she had crushed it without a backwards glance. It was so damn unfair. I couldn’t stop myself as I flung pillows and at the door.“Get me out of here!” I screamed.There was no response. All I felt was my heartbeat which was banging mercilessly against my ribcage. I hated this. I hated the feeling of suffocation that threatened to get the best of me. Pulling myself out of the bed, I walked over to the door. The first strings of sunlight was already prominent but I honestly wasn’t feeling it. All I wanted to do was get out of here. I wanted freedom. “Look, I know someone is out there, and you can probably me hear me, and that’s so good. I want to get out of this place. I’m so damn tired of staying in here. Let me out!” I cried.Nothing!No-one came around, and all I did was scream. I didn’t care if the Alpha heard me or not. I was tired of this. It’s either death or freedom. I wasn’t going to
