DYLAN"Do you think that the Alpha king would let us go with just a warning?" Arnold asked as we made our way to the Alpha King's mansion. As much as I want to believe that the Alpha King will be lenient enough to show us mercy, I still felt like he was going to do something about this. The rules of land were put in place for a reason and taking the book of sorcery was no joking matter. Everyone was quite aware of this fact."I never meant to take the book, Dylan, and you know that I would not take it if it weren't important, but I needed to protect my people. The last time those people attacked my pack, I lost a lot of my people and I vowed to not let it repeat itself again." He said to me and coming from a place of hurt, I understood him."You are also an Alpha, Dylan, so you should know what I'm talking about. Your people were also attacked the last time they came. You lost so much and even though you tried to rebuild the little that you could, it still didn't make up for all you

DYLANI went back to my chambers feeling tired, rejected and overly upset due to Iris's outburst. I looked through the window to see that it was almost dawn. I couldn't believed that I had been awake all morning due to the attack that took place at the mansion. The fact that I was scolded and suspended from the council because I had helped my people fight off a wizard was one thing but the last thing that I expected to happen was coming back to have a fight with Iris.The only reason why I did what I did was because I didn't want to hurt her. I knew just how hard it was to ward off those bastards when they attacked before and I just couldn't bear to see her in danger, so why couldn't she try to understand that? What exactly was her problem?And the fact that she openly insulted our marriage had me reeling in all sorts of emotions at once. I never expected such from her. I thought that we were headed somewhere but I guessed that I was wrong. She would never see me differently. To her,

IRISI stood for a few seconds, watching and observing them. I wanted to march down there and give them both a piece of my mind but I didn't know why I waited. Was I waiting for some sort of validation from the man who was supposed to be married to me? The one whom I ruined my back for all in the name of a marriage ritual?I couldn't believe that after stomping out of my bedroom, he came all the way here to meet up with Giselle? Was something going on between them? I couldn't tell if I was actually angry or jealous but I felt a mixture of both emotions coursing through me at this very moment. The more they spoke, the more her hands rode up his sleeves. They didn't notice me but I could see them clearly.Just as I was anticipating to head over there and give them a piece of my mind, Dylan whipped his head toward my direction. His eyes remained on mine briefly and just like that, he snapped back to focus on the woman in front of him, completely ignoring me.So much for wanting to apolog

DYLANIris was having an affair? With a servant? Under my roof without me knowing? Those were the only words that I had picked up from everything that Giselle had just said. The rest of my brain had gone blank at the other speech she was making and I didn't know how well to handle the news that had just been broken down to me. How would I live with the fact that Iris has been cheating on me all this while?And here I was thinking that I should have apologized and tried to fix things between us. Was that the reason why she kept on talking down on her marriage? Because she was seeing someone else? I couldn't believed that I had been lied to in this manner. I respected their relationship because I thought that they were just friends and that she was merely confiding in him because she had no one in the mansion to talk to but little did I know that she was actually seeing him behind my back?Unable to come to terms with what I had just heard, I made my way back into the mansion. I went st

IRISI arrived at the entrance of his bedroom but the guards outside refused me from going in. They said that he was busy but I knew better than to believe their lies. I knew that he had only said that because he didn't want to talk to me. I would never even have come here in the first place if it didn't involve Jameson."Let me in… NOW!" I yelled in a high pitched voice when the guards positioned at the entrance of the bedroom had denied me access from venturing inside to see their supposed leader. Bunch of pricks!"I'm afraid that we cannot do that. my lady." One of the guards spoke up. "Your husband had strictly asked us to keep any unwanted visitors outside because he does not want to be disturbed.""Unwanted?" My lips curled in anger and my eyes flared up instantly "Did you just refer to me as an unwanted visitor?""Forgive me, my lady, but we cannot go against the Alpha. If you wish to see him, then it's best that you come back later when he'll be in a better mood to attend to y
