Darian's POV "What did you say, Alpha Benson?" I asked him while approaching menacingly, my eyes glowing in red.Once he noticed the anger burning in my eyes as I was approaching him, he started taking some steps backward because he knew that he would only be making things worse for himself if he tried attacking me in return.As I was still approaching him, two other Alphas from another pack blocked me in a defensive manner."Alpha Darian, you have to stop this. I hope you know the consequences of what you are about to do." They asked me while trying to block me from going after Alpha Benson, but without much effort, I shoved them out of the road and dashed towards Alpha Benson, who was trying to make his way into the courtroom.Once I caught him, I pinned him on the wall, my red, glowing eyes boring into him. I could clearly see the fear hidden all over his face as he was trying to break free from my grip, but at the same time, he was still trying his best to maintain a calm facial

Darian's POVWhen I started perceiving the scent of werewolves around the area, firstly I thought that it was another group of rogues, but the issue was that the scent was different from that of rogues, which literally means that it wasn't rogues but instead another group of werewolves. As these thoughts were running through my mind, I saw the arrows coming in our direction, but I was fast to dodge, contrary to my men who got hit by the arrow. When the werewolves surrounded me and I raised my head and saw their Alpha, my heart skipped immediately."Ciara," I called out to her in an undertone with a surprised tone."Yes, it's me, Darian. Surprised to see me, huh?" She asked me while grinning ear to ear, but I remained silent while staring at her utter disbelief."Lower your weapons; he's a guest of honor, and take his men to the healer before the poison on the arrows starts affecting them," she said to her men. Without hesitating, they lowered their weapons before helping my men, who w

Elena's POV "We aren't here to hurt you, your highness; we are only here to bring you back to your pack," one of the rogues said to me from where he was standing."And who sent you?" I asked them with an inquisitive look because I knew that Alpha Darian would never send rogues behind me; in fact, rogues are considered enemies, and as far as I know, Alpha Darian hates rogues."We were sent by your mate, Alpha Darian," one of them said to me, and immediately I chuckled mockingly at them."Do you all think that I'm a fool?" I asked them with an inquisitive look."None of you was sent by Alpha Darian; I don't know who you people are or who sent you guys, but I'm not following anyone of you anywhere," I said to them, my voice filled with determination.With that, they took a glance at each other before turning their gaze towards me while grinning wickedly."You are right, your highness; we weren't sent by Alpha Darian, but we were sent by someone close to him. The person only wants you to

Alpha Benson's PovIt has been over a month since I sent this group of rogues to go and capture for me the mate of Alpha Darian that ran away from his castle, and up until now I still haven't heard from them. I don't know how catching a single she-wolf is so difficult for them; I hope they haven't eaten all the money I have given them and, after all, decided not to do what I assigned them; they won't possibly do that; they all know what I'm capable of doing to them; I'm the only Alpha who provides shelter for them and supplies them with good food and weapons while other Alphas are out there slutteting them like animals; I don't see any reason for them to disobey me; they owe me their loyalty. I would have gone after her myself with some of my soldiers. I'm sure that it won't take up to a week before we find her, and I will easily take over half of Alpha Darian's pack, but the only issue at hand is that he's looking for her too, and if by any means he finds me in the forest looking for

Elena's POVAfter leaving the forest with Richard the Lycan, just as he said, it didn't take long before we arrived at his pack. While returning from the forest, he made known to me that his name is Richard, and that's why he named my son after himself, but he didn't inform me that he was the Alpha of the pack. I was surprised when he brought me to the front of the palace. At first, I thought that like our pack, he wanted to present me to the Alpha since I was from another pack, but I was surprised when everyone started pronouncing themselves before him, and immediately some of the guards ran out with some clothing they used to cover his body. Actually, he has been shirtless since when we left the forest.I was still lost in my thoughts while staring at him when he tapped me, jerking me back to reality."Why are you staring at me like that?" He whispered to me."Nothing, just that you didn't tell me that you are the Alpha of the pack," I whispered to him in return."Actually, I'm the
