Chapter one

EMMELINE POV "Emmeline, come now! Your dad is back!" My mom's scream pierced the air.I dropped my color paintings, racing downstairs with abandon. Nima, my nanny, scolded me for my recklessness, but I couldn't help it – I hadn't seen Father in a year.The carriage stopped outside, and Father dismounted, his worn leather coat and weary eyes telling stories of distant lands. I lifted my ball dress and flung myself into his arms."Easy girl, your old man's waist can't carry you anymore," Father teased, pulling my nose.I laughed, basking in his scent. Santos Gray, renowned scientist and my role model.Mother's gentle tap on my head broke the spell. We laughed, entering the house together.Over dinner, Father shared tales of his revolutionary project. I listened intently."Dad, take me to Elgin sometime?" I asked, stuffing food into my mouth.Mother's lecture on propriety began, and Father's frown deepened. "Elgin's too wild for you.""I've lived in Dogar all my life; I need experience,

chapter two

Cedric POV I sat on my bed, cigarette smoke curling around me, the bitter scent lingering in the air. Nightmares still haunted me - the memories of Santos Gray slaughtering my parents."My Lord, are you alright?" Lily, my occasional companion, asked. Her voice was laced with concern, but I wasn't interested.I grasped her wrist, my grip tight. "Out. Get out now."Lily's eyes widened in surprise at my sudden aggression. "My Lord, if I—"I cut her off with a low growl. "Leave."Lily cowered, fear etched on her face, before hastily dressing and departing with a hasty curtsy.I crushed the cigarette beneath my heel and lit another, the flame dancing in the morning light. Lily had ruined my already sour mood.As Cedric Silver, the Rogue King, or Alpha, I answered to no one. Leader of the rogues in Elton, my rule was absolute.The morning bustle of servants and maids filled the air, their noises amplified by my werewolf hearing. The cacophony grated on my nerves.I glared at Colima, my a

chapter three

Emmeline POV I smiled, my heart racing as I gazed at my mate. He stood tall, his chiseled physique radiating power. His broad shoulders and defined jawline left me breathless. Maybe this place wouldn't be so bad if the goddess had truly led me to my mate.But my optimism was short-lived.As I took a step closer, he pushed me to the floor with a harsh growl. His eyes blazed with hatred, making me tremble."Mat..." I tried to say, but a stinging slap silenced me."It's Lord to you... Lord Cedric to you, spawn of Satan!" he snarled, his voice dripping with venom.I cowered, quivering under the intensity of his gaze. The same look of contempt I'd received from everyone in the manor.The Council had dumped me here earlier than scheduled, and already, I'd faced unimaginable hostility. Some had even spat at me."Lord... Cedric, I am your mate," I stammered, speaking softly, fearful of provoking him further. I'd heard stories from my father about the rogue pack's brutality.Cedric's glare

Chapter four

CEDRIC’S POV I sat on my bed, legs crossed, and glared at Ava, my fiancée. As the Council leader's daughter, our relationship was strictly business. "Why did you come to my manor unannounced?" I scolded, annoyance etched on my face. Gray's daughter, who had collapsed, was already on her way to the infirmary. Ava tilted her head back, incredulous. "We're getting married in the next full moon, and you're still cold to me?" I remained unmoved. "Ava, I'm not obligated to care for your feelings. Now, answer me: why are you here unannounced?" Ava rolled her eyes and poured herself a cup of tea. "My father told me about that...woman serving in the manor. I came to see for myself." I dismissed her with a wave of my hand. "Now that you've confirmed it, you can leave. I have a funeral to plan." Ava opened her mouth to pro

Chapter FIVE

EMMELINE POV I slowly opened my eyes, wincing in pain as the world around me came into focus. I was lying on the forest floor, my body throbbing with agony. Memories of how I got there were hazy and unclear. The black wolf, Lord Cedric, stood before me, his intense stare piercing. His scent revealed he was my mate. Fearful of exacerbating my injuries, I remained still.After several minutes of staring, Lord Cedric let out a warning growl. He huffed and turned to leave. I attempted to call him back, but my voice came out scratchy and coarse. "Help...help me..." I growled, pain searing through my body.The wolf paused, turning to glare at me. Something about his bloodshot eyes sent shivers down my spine. As I lay there, struggling to form coherent words, my energy waned. Pain intensified, and my vision blurred. I tried to focus on Cedric, but his image distorted and faded. A creeping numbness spread through my body, and I felt myself being pulled down into darkness. My eyelids grew

Chapter SIX

CEDRIC POV“Get out, all of you!” I snarled, irritation seething beneath my skin like a festering wound. My gaze swept across the harem of women scattered at my feet, their delicate features and seductive smiles blurring together as my mind fixated on a single, unwelcome thought.Lily, her face pinched with concern, ventured a question, her voice trembling slightly. “My Lord, if I may ask, have we not served you well? We've done everything in our power to please you, to bring you joy and comfort.” Her words hung in the air, heavy with unspoken accusations.I sighed heavily, pushing Emma off my chest as I rose to light a cigarette. The flame danced, casting flickering shadows on the walls as I inhaled the bitter smoke. It was a futile attempt to calm the storm brewing within me. “It's none of your business,” I growled, my patience worn thin. The women exchanged nervous glances, sensing the darkness gathering around me.“Leave. Now,” I commanded, my voice low and menacing. The women sc

Chapter SEVEN

EMMELINE POV I sat in my bunk bed, my mind reeling as Lord Cedric's words echoed in my head: "Become my concubine." It was a command, not a request. Before I could respond, the pack delta, Marci, burst into the room, citing an emergency. Lord Cedric dismissed me, saying he'd request my presence later. As I sat there, lost in thought, Elara entered the room. "What's bothering you? You've been sighing," she asked, eyeing me with concern. I forced a smile and shrugged. "It's nothing." Elara looked skeptical but didn't press the issue. She climbed up to her bunk bed, leaving me alone with my thoughts. I ran my fingers through my tangled curly blond hair, feeling a bit frazzled. The silence between us was palpable until Elara spoke up. "We're getting another roommate tomorrow." Since Bertha and Bethany were beheaded, their beds have been vacant and I expected people to replace them. But not this soon though. Elara leaned down so that she could face me, “aren't you curious to k

Chapter EIGHT

CEDRIC POV As I pulled away from the kiss, Emmeline's pupils dilated, her eyes locking onto mine with a desperation that bordered on madness. I yanked her closer, my fingers digging into her waist as our lips clashed in a frenzy of teeth and tongues. The world around us melted away, leaving only the two of us, suspended in a sea of desire."Call me master," I whispered, my breath hot against her ear. The words sent a shiver coursing through her body, and she arched into me, her moans growing louder.I licked the column of her neck, my teeth grazing the tender skin. The urge to mark her, to claim her as my own, was overwhelming, but I restrained myself, barely. "Say it," I growled, my fingers tangling in her hair as I pulled her head back.Tears pricked at the corners of her eyes as she parted her lips, the scent of arousal wafting up to tease me. "Mas...ter..." The word was barely audible, but it was enough.I smirked, my hands slipping into her garment as she blushed a deep crimson

CHAPTER NINE

EMMELINE POV For days, I had been packing the new belongings I'd received as Lord Cedric's concubine into his chambers, just as he had instructed me. The servants all gave me disapproving stares, but none dared confront me, fearing that Lord Cedric would behead them if they crossed me. As Elara and I finished packing, we sat on the bed, panting heavily. "This is the last of it," Elara told me. I used the back of my hand to wipe the sweat off my forehead. Elara turned to me with a curious glint in her eyes. "Everybody is saying that you have seduced Lord Cedric." I frowned, skeptical. "How could someone like me seduce Lord Cedric? He has seen so many women." Elara scoffed, "You're a fair lady, though due to circumstances, you had to serve as a maid in the manor. Your skin is soft as silk." I laughed at her words, but there was no denying the truth in them. Without bragging, I knew I stood out from the other servants in the manor - not just because of my physical appearance, but als

Chapter TEN

CEDRIC POV "Lord Cedric, the carriage has arrived," Marci informed me, pulling me out of my thoughts. I dismissed him with a wave as I left my room and walked to the waiting carriage outside.We were headed to Dowin to meet with Alpha Venus, the city's duke, who shared my hatred for the Council. I aimed to secure his alliance with my pack. If Lord Carlos decided to remove my pack from the treaty, I would need at least one alliance with a werewolf pack.The carriage was warm, thanks to the lamp inside, as winter had already set in in Dowin. I had chosen a plain carriage to avoid drawing attention to myself and blend in as a commoner.Marci and I climbed in, and the coachman urged the horses forward. My aunt would oversee the manor as my second-in-command until my return. Hours passed, and we remained on the road, but I could sense our proximity to Dowin due to the increasing cold."Any specific information I would need to know about Alpha Venus that will help us?" I asked Marci, seeki
