Chapter thirteen Sharon’s pov Darius is here. I can’t believe it; Darius is standing right beside me. I couldn’t scream out loud, but I could scream in my mind. This is a dream come true for me, but first, I have to maintain my emotions if I want to win a space in his heart. This is my opportunity. I must get this Alpha, because he is mine. I let go of that servant because I wanted to impress him, and from his expression, I could tell he was impressed. He couldn’t stop staring at me, and the way he bent a bit to get a sniff of me changed my world for that moment. I want him now. Before we got home, I had one of the warriors inform Dad about the arrival of Darius, and Dad seemed prepared when we arrived. I could tell how pleased he was to see Darius. Well, Darius is not only the alpha of the most powerful and richest kingdom; his family is also prominent and influential. They are big shots. While they were about to talk, a woman ran in and fell at the feet of my fa

Riley's Pov Was I born cursed? Why do I have to go through all these? Luckily, I was scared by a man whose face I couldn't see clearly because my view became blurry, but I could perceive his scent from a distance. It was so strong and comforting. His scent brought comfort and an assurance that I was safe, but then I blacked out and only woke up when I felt a strong hand on my face. Mother didn't stop there; she continued hitting me, telling me how much trouble I had caused her. how much trouble I have just caused her family. She wanted me gone. I remembered every word she said. Like she has always told me, she picked me up as a baby by the lake. My parents left me because I was bad luck for them. She kicked me and hit me without minding the pain I was going through or if I died at all. It hurt so much. I want all these to end. I am tired of this all. She left the house in a hurry, giving me some time to nurse my pain and the fresh wounds she just gave me with her whip. After some

Chapter seventeenDarius's pov That feeling.... That feeling. It gave me an extreme pleasure I had never felt before. It took me to a height of ecstasy I had never experienced. I moved away and watched as the mark I gave her on her neck slowly closed up, creating a scar. I swallowed hard and rubbed the back of my neck. I made her mine already. I have marked her.I stood up and moved a few steps back. I had no choice. Yes, I really had no choice. Slowly, I watched as the bruises on her body closed up, but not without a scream from her. As long as we are mates, our bites can heal each other. People call it the power of love, but love is crazy. It can't be because of love. It just happens. In no time, she was able to move again, but she was still on the floor, breathing heavily. "You are okay now; we need to leave." I told her. Riley's Pov I stood up, feeling a bit relived from my pain, even though not completely. My legs were still weak, but I managed to He turned and faced th

Chapter nineteen Riley's Pov A lie? No, it can't be. He is telling a lie now, rather. He told me I was his mate. He accepted that, and when I asked about us getting married, he agreed to it. What did he lie about? "What are you talking about?" "What did you lie about?" I asked, trying to get what he said completely into my head. Maybe he was talking about something else and not the part about me being his mate. He laughed, shaking his head. "I lied about everything." I mean, you just found out that I am an Alpha, and you should know better that I deserve a worthy Luna and not some servant who hasn't seen or gotten a pinch of brilliance to rule with me. "This whole thing between us is just a mistake and nothing more," he replied, staring at me. The way he stared at me with those cold eyes Those eyes I admired a few moments ago now look so scary that they've sent a shiver through my body. I felt chills all over me as those words he said resounded in my ears. I went dumb for a whil

Chapter twenty-one Darius's Pov Lita in my mother’s room? I frowned and left the room. "What is going on here?" Lita stood up and smiled at me. "Hey." Is she this shameless? I had always thought she was the best at everything, but not so intelligent, I see. Meeting my mother to talk about what? a way to get me back even though I told her I was going to search for my mate, and obviously, I am back with my mate. "I asked what you were doing here." I asked again, this time with a raised voice. "Son, calm down. She just came to see me. You don't have to get all worked up." "Mother, I told you I would be bringing in my mate soon, and you still let her in?”"Ouch, that hurts." "I am not your enemy, you know." Lita replied, feigning anger. The more I see her and her motives, the more irritated I am with her true self. What is she trying to do? get my mother’s attention all to herself so that it would be hard for me to forget about her? That is one of her strategies. "You are not we
