Zaika's povWatching Sasha, my wolf Einar was demanding that I take our mate away immediately. I winced at the look of hopelessness in her yellow eyes and my heart pained me terribly. "I have to stick to the plan," I snarled in response to Einar. I transported myself to Sasha's dungeon room knowing that she would be returned to it after every male expelled himself on her. Thankfully her room was clear of servants and I wandered around the enclosed area trying to quell the hellfire that was flowing dangerously across my flesh. To clear my mind I transported myself into the hall outside of the steel door room. I searched for others from the rogue pack. Squinting my eyes into the darkened cells, I heard my muffled name being called out."Alpha Zaika, please save us," a male choked out. Hearing me getting called Alpha made me smile. I transported myself into their cell and cringed at the injuries they had all sustained."Hold hands or touch each other. I'm going to attempt to take you al

Zaika's povAs I continued to heal Sasha I glanced over at Bryce working on fixing the broken side of the tent."Samson was helping Gallum. He was working as one of his guards," I said in bitterness. Bryce just grunted while nodding his head."Samson was always one of the Southern Province guards so that doesn't surprise me." I gasped at that revelation and exhaled deeply. Chuckling, Bryce came and sat beside me."He informed me that he wished to return so he could help keep the guards off our trail. He is helping in his way," he said firmly. I thought about Atlas and asked if the reaper was aware and he nodded. I finished with Sasha and stretched my arms up over my head."I want to start training again, I have a couple of months to prepare for my challenge," I blurted, causing Bryce's silver eyes to narrow at me. I grinned at the old wolf's scowl."Sasha deserves to reside in a palace since she was raised in one. Not this dwelling, plus I already told Gallum I would be issuing one,"

Sasha's povCailean escorted me to the kitchen and introduced me to Asher. I could see the family resemblance to Zaika instantly. When he reached out to shake my hand I noticed an odd glint in his light brown eyes. Hearing the cries from my son and the shouts of the reaper was the last thing I heard as the room vanished before me. Once we reappeared, I yanked my hand from Asher and asked him where I was."You are back at King Gallum's in my suite of course," he answered in a terse manner. Shaking my head I cursed, "Why would you betray your brother? He only wanted to know who his family was. Not only that but Gallum is going to kill me!" Asher glared down at me."All my life growing up my parents spoke about their lost precious golden child while I'm left to live up to his memory. Always getting compared to him and my sister! My parents are wealthy and successful like my sister whereas I am not. This idiot king will give me much and if Gian comes then I will destroy him and then chall

Zaika's pov"Remember that William hid Cailean the last time Gallum's guards attacked," Atlas reminded me. I side-eyed him with narrowed eyes. "Where would that half-breed take them all? Hell?" I snapped rudely. I rubbed my eyes listening to Faelon and Atlas discussing why I mentioned hell. Atlas informed him that William was half demon. "Let Atlas and I search for your son. Stay with your mate. She will be very hungry when she rises," Faelon insisted. Staring hard at my father I growled, "Please bring him back to me the instant you find him." Nodding his head he mumbled, "Of course." Seeing the truthfulness in his stern features I thanked him."Atlas and I will leave now. Stay near your female!" Grinning slightly, I nodded. The pair vanished and I exhaled deeply. Running back up to Sasha, I paused hearing a slight whimpering. Glancing down the stairs I could see the blue shimmering light coming from the living room. Calling on my hellfire I slowly made my way down the steps. Peeki

Zaika's pov"He zapped me that little brat," Atlas wheezed. I stood back while my father put his glowing hands on the reaper's chest to heal him. Sophia, my mother was biting her bent finger in concern."Faelon, our son needs to be stopped. He is growing too bold and dark," she said sullenly. I would not harm my brother, I only just met my family. When my father glanced over at me I shook my head not wanting to be a part of it."You're going to have to face him sooner or later," Atlas coughed. Exhaling deeply I glanced down at Sasha's arms threading around my waist. If I don't deal with my insane brother I would lose all that I held dear to my heart."Asher needs his mate to overcome his darkness," my wolf growled firmly."Does Asher have a mate yet?" I blurted out. My parents shook their heads and I chewed on my bottom lip."He needs one. It's the only way to end his darkness," I added. My mother glanced at my father and laughed."Asher is like you dear, a black-hearted man in need o
