ALPHA DARIO POVMy vacation in Lunaria has been splendid so far, I didn't realize I'd enjoy it this much. Experiencing the glory of Lunaria made me understand I needed to change my fortunes at Thornridge.Thornridge was a poor kingdom, by the standards of Alpha Xavier's Wolfshade, and Alpha Emrys' Lunaria. "Lovely morning, Alpha Dario." The female who had shared my bed with me two nights ago poke ahead through the door and greeted me."Daisy, lovely morning to you too." I gestured for her to come in. "What can I do for you?" She came in, and flashed one of those smiles that could melt even a heart of stone."Thank you, you are very sweet Alpha Dario. The Queen, Aria, requests an audience." She said, still smiling."Alright, thank you Daisy." She turned to leave and images of our last time together flashed before my eyes. I wanted a rematch. "Hold on, where?" "Oh, The Visitors Court." She turned to face me. The peach silk robe she wore, left a lot to be seen. "I don't know where that

ALPHA XAVIER The women circle didn't really surprise me, I had not expected Verin to pull such a thing against me. I thought she was on my side? The confrontation in public had not been what I had expected, and I ended up promising to be fair to their Alpha Female. Since when did they have the right to intervene is the affairs of mates. Only the moon goddess had such powers and even at that, I have the right to decide if I want to heed her advice or not.Isabel is my mate first, before being their flaming Alpha female. It was my being mated to her that made her an Alpha female. It shouldn't change the fact that I can't treat my flaming wife the way I want."You went too far Xavier." Verin had said when I went to her pleasure house later that evening and she refused to allow me access to her body. "How could you make her roll in animal feces? And even have her walk around the inner city? You are wicked Xavier." She said the last part with sadness in her voice and I instantly felt a ti

ALPHA XAVIER POVThe walk home became a procession. She buried her head in my chest and cried as we left the woods but stopped when we got to the village of the city. As I carried her, little girls and boys joined in my wake and started to sing.The Alpha and his mate,The love rekindled that should never wane,Love so strong that there's no hate,She is secure in his mane.What were they singing, she is the enemy. I could still hear Sue's words in my dream just a short while ago but I feared things were not working out in my favor. But the children sang on and kept following me.In moonlit nights, their bond unfolds,Silent whispers, tales of old,Through challenges, their hearts remain,A love enduring, free from stain.By the time we got to Tarrenhall, the inner city, their numbers had increased and their voices could be heard above every other thing. This was the least of my worries, the people of Wolfshade have accepted Isabel. First the women circle had a protest in her honor, n

ALPHA DARIO POV "That was incredible." Aria said breathlessly. "You are quite a strong male. I'd love to ride you every moment of every day." She snuggled close to me, with her thigh resting on my member while she used her nails to caress my nipple."There's more where that came from." I bragged. Truth be told, I never thought I'd ever be lucky to have Aria share my bed."I like that energy, you'll need it for what is coming." She slyly traced her hand down to my member and gave it a gentle squeeze. "We have a problem though.""Problem?" I tilted her head, so I could look into her eyes. "What's the nature of this problem?""I heard you say you, Emrys and Xavier used to be friends, was that true?" She asked and I couldn't imagine what she was getting at."Yes, Emrys and Xavier were closer, Emrys had Lunaria, I had Thornridge while Xavier had nothing. Even though he and Emrys were close, I didn't really start becoming close to him until he deposed Alpha Damian, the former leader of Wol

ALPHA XAVIER POVI waited for the ladies to leave before I got back up and sat on the bed beside her but her expression was one that showed that she was scared, regardless of how hard she tried to mask her smell."I know I've been hard on you, but..." I trailed off, "how about we go on a picnic in the garden. The serving girls have prepared all we need."The look on her face was priceless, somehow I was glad that I could trigger such an expression from her. "Thank you Xavier."I gently carried her to the bathroom, took my time to clean her up and had her dress in a very beautiful dress I had the seamstress make for her. "Alpha Xavier, this is beautiful." Her joy was indescribable.I slowly led her out of the castle, where a carriage was waiting for us. Many Wolfshadans smiled and laid flowers as we passed through until we arrived at the spot I had chosen for the picnic. "I think we are here." I quickly got out and helped her climb down the carriage.Under the sprawling branches of anc
