chapter 111

Chapter 111Lessie's POVI could feel it in the pit of my stomach, the weight of something unsaid, something he was holding tight under his piercing glance and suave voice. Whenever I looked at him, whenever I drew nearer to him, I could feel he was withholding something. He was not sharing everything with me. No, not even that, he was not sharing anything tangible with me.And that was something that troubled me.The reason he doesn't speak to me so much is that he's hiding a secret. And I was sure of that.I smacked my hands together in front of my own bedroom wall, and my mind would not rest. If Alpha Duaine believed in me as much as he said he did, then why was he not truthful with me? Why did he treat me that mixture of love and restraint, as if protecting me was a case of protecting me from information?The questions kept lingering in my mind.Does he think that I would despise him if I were to find out the truth?I clamped hard onto my lip. I was his mate. There was suppose

chapter 112

Chapter 112Lessie's POVThe first day of school was always a little funky. Student moved through the big metal doors, laughing, flapping new bags, shoes and hair as if the brief vacation had magically turned them new and different people.I simply stood stuck in a corner just inside the door, holding my books to me, my gaze scanning round to spot someone.And in the end, I did catch sight of the one I was seeing.I wasn't searching for anyone. I was searching for that special friend who always, no matter what, had my back. Someone who just always seemed to understand me without me having to say much to them. I was already smiling.I watched him step out of his dad's shiny black vehicle in the parking lot. His height was recognizable at once. My heart relaxed at the sight, relief washing over me. In the midst of all the turmoil that had been going on in my life. Alpha Duiane, Nathan, my dad, the undercurrent tension of unspoken truths, having Trent present was a straightforward comfo

chapter 113

Chapter 113Author’s POVAlpha Duaine hadn't been expecting anyone that morning. His day had been as busy as usual, busy with council briefings, patrol reports, and private thoughts he barely recognized even to himself. The palace had been peacefully still, and he'd almost convinced himself to have an hour to himself before the next wave of duties came crashing down.Then there was the knock. Firm, but not rushed or hesitant.He raised his head out of the pile of papers, a crease between his eyes. Few men would so assuredly knock at his door. Most guards and counselors entered in fear or fawning haste. This knock was that of a man who need not brag."Come in," Alpha Duaine said, his voice level.As the door swung open, he blinked in shock. Standing before him was a tall, greying-haired man with well-brushed hair, his stance exuding quiet dignity. He oozed warmth and stability, an atmosphere Alpha Duaine hadn't experienced in a very long time. In an instant, recognition hit him."Tre

chapter 114

Chapter 114Author's POVThere was this silent judgment over breakfast, as if the two men were circling around facts neither would raise. Trent's father leaned back from the table, his arms crossed over his chest, his expression stern and critical. Alpha Duaine leaned forward slightly.And then his friend interrupted the silence."Alpha Duaine," he started, "you can't lose the throne for a girl."The words struck him. He had been expecting this from his childhood friend."You know as well as anyone that there are dozens of women in this kingdom, women who would die for the chance to stand at your side. Why bind yourself to a single girl when the cost is so high? Think about it. The throne has been in your family for hundreds of years. It is not a throne, it is your family, your blood, your heritage."You cant lose it, Duaine. if you try it, your people will never forgive you. Nor your ancestors." Alpha Duaine fought to keep his voice level. His wolf growled and squirmed in his bell

chapter 115

Chapter 115Lessie's POVI walked with Trent on the massive school campus. School had started this week and already the campus was abuzz with life. Some students were walking toward the center building arms full of books, some stood around in groups laughing loudly, and others sat against walls looking like they couldn't wait to be somewhere else.Trent, however, experienced none of the frenzied hum of school life. His stride was easy, confident, the kind of easy-going grace that only comes after knowing one and what one has to pursue. He stuffed his hands into pockets and looked at me with that small smile he perpetually sported."You see," he began, "my summer vacation wasn't exactly a vacation. My father saw to it that I spent most of my time studying about leadership. Sitting in on meetings, watching him facilitate conflicts, listening to speeches." He chuckled. "There were times that I thought he'd forgotten that I was still a kid."I leaned over to one side and watched him. "It

Chapter 116Dylan's POVI was home in my bedroom, the silence settling over me like a shroud of air. The curtains were closed over the window, and the darkness clung to all things suited the mood in my chest. My phone rested on the bed next to me, the screen faintly lit by the last message I'd sent. I knew he'd be calling again, and as if on cue, the moment I dared to consider it in my mind, the phone rang, the ringing high note piercing the silence.I picked it up immediately, my hands closing around it tightly once again with renewed urgency as I placed it to my ear."Alpha Dylan," the voice on the phone called. The voice sounded smooth but beneath it, it had a bitter taste, one that told him he was not a man you spoke to too often. "Great," I growled, moving back against the headboard. "Finally. You took your good sweet time before calling back.""You know I only call when it's something important," the voice said to me."And this is."My heart pounded. I heaved forward, pushing

chapter 117

Chapter 117Duaine's POVI sat there in stunned silence, my mind whirling after my friend had departed. His words still lingered like a malignant ghost in my head, each syllable resounding back. "Don't lose the throne over a girl."I rubbed the bridge of my nose, I shut my eyes. I wouldn't hold it against him for thinking that. That's all he'd ever wished for, for me to be okay and in control. His counsel was a counsel a friend offers to someone he cares about. And maybe, once, I would have listened. Maybe if this were previous me, before Lessie, I would have listened, maybe even done something about it.But now it was not like that.Now, the mere possibility of allowing her to slip out of me, to see her walk and exist without me wasn't possible. I had vowed to guard her. I had promised, in ways wherein I had not spoken so much as a word, to defend her even if all the men and all the women in the world were against me. I could not break that vow. Not now. Not when everything within me

chapter 118

Chapter 118Lessie's POVI recognized that all was not well the moment I walked into Alpha Duiane's office.It wasn't the kind of weight that circulated when he was vexed or displeased with his subordinates. No, not that one either. He reclined behind his desk, the same gruff man to whom I had grown used to, but something was amiss with him. His shoulders weren't quite so straight either, and though he lifted up his head and gave that small smile of his, I knew him too well now to be fooled by that.His eyes gave him away.I'd come to recognize the skeptical look in Alpha Duiane's eyes during the time I'd spent with him. They were hard and cold and commanding if he wanted to remind you he was in charge. They would show softness sometimes, revealing to me a gentleness I never expected from a man like him. But now, when he looked at me, something new was in them, something that was filled with a weight of what he was fighting to conceal from me.But still, he looked at me as if everythi

chapter 119

Chapter 119Lessie's POVI cursed under my breath, growling the words out loud, as I walked away, the words spilling over one another in my head like pieces of glass on the sidewalk. My voice was low enough that no one else heard it, but in my head, I was yelling. "Why does he think he just gets to make all the decisions? Why does he always cut me off? Why can't he talk to me? I asked myself.I kept posing the same precise questions again and again in other terms, and all stayed on my mind.I was moving at light speed on foot as if I was being driven by fury. I didn't even know the direction in which I was going. The corridors were no longer an issue, the sounds of the students on school grounds, until only the living organism that lingered in my head was the rage churning within me.I bumped into people as I moved frantically, then all I could say was "Sorry." as I moved on. Some glared at me with rage, some shrugged shoulders, but I didn't have respect enough to bow. Apologies roll

chapter 120

Chapter 120Author's POVShane became irritable. The letters that he'd written to his daughter were all left unanswered. Weeks had passed and there was no reply from her yet. At first, he'd thought that she was just not writing due to pride, or even fear, perhaps, but now the silence was torturous. He had no idea if she'd even gotten them. Perhaps someone was hiding them from her. This time he would not send Lessie a letter. He would approach the source of his annoyance, to the man encroaching on his life and his child.Duaine.His chest tightened as he thought of Lessie, the daughter he had raised, the daughter he had guarded, the daughter he ached to have close by.He began writing.Dear Duaine," the letter said, his handwriting crude and bold. "I have sent a number of messages to my daughter and received no response. This silence will no longer be tolerated. I'm taking this matter directly into your hands because I believe you to be its cause."He paused, catching his breath thr
