Leah's POV"Do not make me ask again, what the hell is going on here?" He growled, his eyes glowing as he stared at us. Connor cleared his throat, turning Damian's attention to himself. "Nothing, Alpha. I was just taking the Princess around," he explained. Damien glanced at me, giving me a suspicious look. "She is no longer a Princess so there is no need to call her that. She has a name." I groaned, not wanting to be called another name. It could mess up with my mind. "I'm fine with being called a Princess," I told him. "After all that is who I am." "You are no longer a Princess, Anne," he hissed. Damian didn't look pleased to see me which I understood but what baffled me was the way his eyes kept on roaming down my body. He seemed angry but I could tell there was something more to his anger. "You are my Luna now and should be assessed as such." It took a lot of my resilience not to roll my eyes at his possessive words. "Well then treat me like one," I glared at him. I heard C

Damien's POVI blinked in surprise at her tone. "What do you mean? Anne needs someone to protect her." Stephanie scoffed. "What I want to know is why! She is not a child, Damian and I am sure she can defend herself although I do not see the reason to have Connor protecting her when no one is going to attack her." And that was my fear. Until I got the mined lead, I did not want anyone or anything to hurt Anne. She was Alpha Elijah's prized princess although a part of me told me I was doing it for my own selfish interest. I ignored the voice. "I know you do not trust her but trust me at least. Your jealousy is evident on your face," I teased her and she rolled her eyes. "Well you tend to make me overly jealous. You need Connor tomorrow. No one is going to hurt Anne, I promise. I'll take care of her for you," she said with a smile. I observed her expression, not really trusting her words. Stephanie was a very territorial and jealous woman. I would not be at peace leaving Anne in her

Leah's POVDamian groaned in frustration, walking back to me. I shot a glance at Connor but he was already walking away. "Hold on to me," he grumbled, giving me his hand for support. To say I was embarrassed was the least. The men looked at me with anger and contempt. I held his hands and together we went back to the house. As we walked, I tried to ignore how sensual he felt. I could feel his muscles contrast and his scent engulfed my senses, making me go crazy. It would be a disaster if I got turned on while walking because every wolf would catch a whiff of it so I ignored how he made me feel. When we arrived, Stephanie was already there, giving orders to everyone. She seemed bent on making sure everyone noticed her. Her expression changed as she laid eyes on me. Specifically, Damian and I. "What happened?" She asked sweetly, her mood changing in an instant as she came closer to us. Damian let go of me. "Can you walk?" He asked, looking concerned and I nodded. He took a look at

Leah POVHearing Damian's cry of pain, everyone including me turned to him. He was sitting but I could see how pale he was becoming and Stephanie was kneeling before him, cleaning his injuries. She seemed distracted and was panicking. What was going on? I stood up from where I was taking a rest and walked over and saw Damian's eyes closed while his lips trembled. He did not want to say it but he was in a lot of pain. Glancing at the injury again, it had started bleeding profusely causing my expression to change. There was something wrong. "Can you allow me?" I asked Stephanie and she glared at me. "No, what do you want?" She asked sassily. Damian opened his eyes and growled at her. With one look at me, she stood up and took a few steps back. I bent over and took a good look at the cut. It was not a very deep cut but if infected, could cause a major problem. And by the look of it, it was infected!"Oh no, what did you do?" I asked Stephanie. She looked confused. "What do you mean

Damian POVI shifted into my wolf and went to my room to change. I could not bear being in the same room with her. Why was my heart beating so fast? Why was I able to sense that she was in danger? It was not something I expected. Who was she? Was she my mate? My heart was more troubled than before. She invaded my thoughts, making me do things I never thought I would do. Now, I had to apologize to Stephanie for yesterday and today. Although I did not know what could have triggered her to attack Anne when she knew we were having a delicate situation right now. I shifted, wore a pair of pants and a shirt and walked out of the room. My scouts had brought back a not too good result and I needed to have a general meeting with my men, which included Steph. On reaching her room, I twisted the knob on the door but it was locked. Shit, she was pissed. I knocked on it a few times and heard the unlock sound a few moments later. I entered and saw her on the bed, with tears in her eyes. She lo
