Darius's PovI sat on my throne, resting my cheek on my knuckles, listening to what the elders had to tell me. It's six o'clock already, and I am getting tired after a long journey. I really need enough rest, but I decided to stay for this meeting. This meeting is more important than my rest. I will get that rest only when I am done.“My lord, I think we should expand our territory this time." "It's the raining season, and we need to build the fallen fence, but if we go ahead and build it at that same spot, there is still a possibility the fence will get destroyed again, and according to the sorcerer, the rain this year will be so unfavorable because it's going to cause devastations and disasters.” One of the elders, Peter, suggested “My lord, expanding the territory will only affect the farmers farming out there." Most of those kinds are owned by their ancestors, and giving them up would be impossible. "If you take it by force, they might revolt against you, my lord.” the second eld

Chapter twenty fiveRiley’s PovI fell to the ground, and groaned in pain.It was the second floor so it wasn’t that high. Lucky me. If I had fallen from a very high distance, that would have been even more terrible.I stood up and limped into the forest. I have to run as fast I can. I have to get back my freedom.I kept limping fast into the forest, going deeper, without knowing where I was going to.I stopped when I got close to a stream. That was the place I needed to be. The river leading to the human nations is in a far distance. I don’t know where I was, hut all I wanted was to find a way to the river.“Calm down Riley, you made this decision and you will have to go by it.” I told myself.I heard about many women, who always get scared at night alone and being in her situation, would make them really frightened, but, she was used to staying outside the comfort of a roof at midnight so she wasn’t cared at all.She looked around, thinking of a way to follow. She would have carried

Riley’s Pov“This is unacceptable.” She said with a frown. I swallowed hard as she said that. She is the mother of the alpha, who I just found out his name to be Darius and she is frowning at me the first day we meet? Okay, this is really going to be bad for me.I looked down, thinking about how my life is about to turn out to be. I am been hated by all, including my mate and his mother.“Why would a mate to my son, who is the aloha of this great pack be dressed as a servant in a dress not worthy, of even the servants here?” she asked.I raised my head, nit expecting that from her.She smiled at me and shook her head. “You are too beautiful to wear a rag, beside, you are my son queen and my daughter in-law too.”Huh? Does this mean….. she accepts me? Daughter in-law.“I can’t believe my son lied to me. He will have to explain all these when he wakes up tomorrow morning.” She said and walked more close to me. “Oh dear, aren’t you supposed to be resting now? You should be asleep and not

Chapter twenty nineRiley’s PovThe next day….I woke up with my body sore because of where I laid. The cold and hard floor, did a lot to me. I stretched and looked at the door, and met the woman who came to the room, staring at me.I flinched and stood up.“You woke up late. That is failing one of the most important rules.” She said, not showing any expression in her face.I quickly stood up and bowed. “I apologize. I was so tired and overslept.”“That isn’t an excuse. You shouldn’t oversleep.” She said firmly. I nodded. I did woke up late because I slept late, but this time, it wouldn’t be so.She threw a box to me. “Get dressed, the Alpha’s mother, wants you in her room now.” She said and turned to leave.“Where will I take my bath?” I asked.She turned and looked at me, and after a minute without a word, she left.Seriously? I just need a place to bath and not a secret room to the pack secret.Will Darius let me have a bath in his bathroom? He is angry with me and might up yellin

Riley's PovA beautiful lady called mother. Mither turned and looked at her and I noticed the change of mood on mother's face.Who is she?I looked at her and noticed how pretty she is. Her skin is so flawless and fair. She has an hourglass figure that any man will die for. Her hair is so long and curly. She just have spent a lot of money, keeping that hair beautiful as it was. Her dress, it was a short body fitted light blue gown, revealing her perfect features. Her breasts are big and round and well fitted in her gown. Her features are all perfect and this got me a bit jealous. She is well endowed with beauty and everything a man wants, but me, well..... What will I say? I am so unfortunate and I am also not pretty as the other ladies I have seen are. Even the dress I was given, even though it wasn't rag as my clothes, it's too decent for an alpha Luna."Lita." mother called standing up. The lady smiled and that smile of hers could brighten up the sky.Her eyes fell on me and she ra
