Phillip POVI’m at the shitty bar where we first met, I came in from the back alley door. My private security is on high alert but they let me enter alone, security escorts already surveyed the place before me or they wouldn't let me in, otherwise they will alert my father immediately. Other than that, I’m free to come and go as I please. I have convinced my parents that I’m over my arranged marriage dissolution. Fuck that, I’m not over it. Everything was going according to plans until Viviane was stolen from me. Anger seeps into my bones everytime I look around and see my dreams crumbling down. I was supposed to be Crown Prince by now if it weren’t for my betrothed leaving me for my uncle. Because of them I'm the laughing stock of whole country by now. I vowed to exact my revenge soon. The pungent smell of cheap alcohol and cigar makes me gag but is the only way I can see her again, my precious doll. After we finished talking about our plans of stealing Viviane from my uncle, she l

Atticus POV She is gone. Everything happened so fast I can't even wrap my head around how the hell did they find us, who brought them here, what do they want with Viviane. Too many questions and the time is slipping out of my hands as I have no clue of her whereabouts. My Vivianne is gone. Someone took her from me and whoever they are, they are going to pay with their lives. “What do you mean she's gone?” I tell my mother who is coming to my side, worry and guilt could be read all over her face. Beta Jack confirms he last saw her before they closed the doors to the safe room while I kept killing and putting down Tethra wolves. Beta, what is the damage summary? Did we have casualties? From our people, we lost to warrior. They served as shields when we were moving everyone into the safety ares. Their sacrifice helped us to bring the women and children to safety. The adrenaline rush did not allow me to feel the pain of their tethers fading. It was after I realized that I heard v

Viviane POV “Don’t take him away, please. He didn’t do anything, you heard him,” I begged Philip, but he did not want to hear me. Instead he chained Atticus like a dog and took him away. When they were gone, Lilliane and I did not stay alone for long, Delta Derek and a few of our warriors emerged from the water. They could have rounded the lake but this could have taken much longer to reach us. Thank goodness they brought clothes on and were not naked as they were in their wolf form before. “Luna, are you alright? Did they hurt you or Lady Lilliane?” I was about to answer. We were a little shaken and bruised but nothing serious when my sister jumped into the Delta’s arms at the sound of her name being spoken. “Lilliane!” I gasped, covering my mouth with my mouth. I had never seen my little sister behave like that, she was shaking and sobbing in the arms of a strange man. But when I saw the concern in Delta's eyes and with the tenderness of his treating Lilly, I decided to lea

Alpha Atticus POV “What..what is she doing here?” I managed to ask in a low voice. I’m still shackled to the ceiling and my feets are dragging on the floor. I'm too weak to stand up straight. My body aches everywhere but I fight my own will to keep alert. I want to know what Philip is up to bringing Viviane to this shithole. Philip is not in his right mindset, he definitely lost it and became mad like his grandfather. Prince Pierre was diagnosed with schizophrenia and had to be interned in an asylum for the rest of his days. “Well, well, well. Tsk. Atticus, you look like shit and smell like it too,” he said scrunching his face, it took him just a moment to take out a handkerchief from his pocket to cover his mouth and nose, “Where are your manners, dog? Can’t you see you have visitors?” He kicked me but I did not move. “Stop it! Don’t you see he is weak? What have you done to him?” Viviane came close to me but Philip stopped her before she could reach me. His grip on her arm

Alpha Atticus “So, how is it going to be, Atticus? A rejection or do you want me to fuck her senseless in front of you?” Philip laughed maniacally. There is no way he will see me crumble at his feet, I may be battered and on the brink of death but I’m an Alpha. I heaved a deep breath and said sternly, “I will get you for this, Philip, mark my words.” It took me a lot to look at my mate, the only woman I have ever wanted as she is shedding her tears in silence. “I, Atticus Rudolf Greenway, Alpha of the Greenway Pack, reject you, Lady Viviane Sinclair as my mate and righteous Luna. I set you free of the mate's bond. May the goddess forgive us.” Tears of impotence welling in my eyes are the only thing I feel now that the bond has been severed. With each word came an unbearable pain, like hot coils rubbed against my chest. I felt my heart break in many tiny pieces but I had no choice but to comply with Philip’s wish. Forgive me, please. I pleaded with Zeus who was howling aguishly i
