Semua Bab Dear Mate, You’re Mine!: Bab 21 - Bab 30

Trent's POV The doors to the hall slammed shut behind me, the echo irritating me and firing up my anger. “Get the fuck out of my sight!” I screamed at the guard almost towering over me. His steps faltered and he looked like a lost puppy but I didn't care. Anger brimmed at my fingertips, my chest bubbled like it would explode in a minute but the air felt different and that was when I stilled for a moment. Angry pair of eyes scanning the hall. Wolves. Most of them. They flinched. Conversations had died and the air tightened like it could suffocate me. Wolves bowed, lowering their heads like I'd forced them to. Some of the Omegas were trembling, their faces like I was a ticking bomb waiting to explode. My claw snapped almost scratching blood. “Scram!! All of you!!” The guttural growl from my throat sent them scamperin

Astra's POV My mouth snared open like a whale's belly as I yawned for the 100th time this night. An old saying says, there is no peace for the wicked and I think I was one of the wicked. Ever since the supreme assembly, I haven't properly slept. Leadership wasn't ice cream and chips neither is it chips and ketchup and that's why people like Arianna who thought they could probably do better baffled me. Just because I was determined to pull Trent down, to make him pay every dime of what he'd cost me, didn't mean my empire would suffer. I was a wicked ruler not an incompetent one. My eyes followed the documents sprawled out across my table, I still had a long way to go. I was exhausted, my hands limped beside me, I threw my head back, over the arm chair as if that would give me strength. A knock on the door startled me slightly, “Come

Trent's POV My heart clenched as I passed through the room where Arianna was kept on house arrest on my orders. Her voice screaming to speak to me tore into me. Just one day. One more day and she would be free again. I closed my eyes, a faction of my heart squeezing together. But it was the right thing to do. That's what I told myself. In the last few days, Astra had expanded her reign, no slander or petition would bring her down. Who would support you to petition against a woman doing everything within her power to expand the city and smaller packs in particular? “Alpha…” The headwarrior called, putting me out of my thoughts. His voice had an edge to it. Something was wrong. “What is it?” I queried, furrowing my brows and bracing for the bad news with my back turned, facing the frosted

Trent's POV The midnight moon had gathered exactly as I wanted it, it hung like a watchman over the supreme capital where Astra's quarters were located. I could make out torches flickering quietly in the halls, the warriors mounting the doors were alert and agile. I could pause in my tracks to admire them really, they looked like they had the agility and ability of three wolves combined. “Hey!” A low voice called almost startling me, I looked away from the crack of my hideout and looked at the intruder. My men looked between me and this new intruder waiting for my signal to attack. “Hey man!” I greeted him, he nodded. “Is this them?” He pointed to the rogue warriors and my head warrior. I nodded, “all of it.” “Good.” “You will follo

Astra's POV Jerome's face held the rage of a man willing and ready to destroy anything and anybody in his path. Sitting across from him, even I would be a little scared of his aura right now but I was too pissed off to be afraid. They intensity of his anger caused the guards to back away. His wolf was slipping out, his aura was so strong the people around forcefully bowed their heads. I knew all that rage didn't belong to just him. “How did they get in?” He thundered, his words echoing you as he asked for the third time. Nobody had answered. Nobody had responded the last two times. “That is something I am yet to find out.” I responded, cracking my knuckles as fury washed over me. Who would dare? Did they think I was dead or did they think this Astra was too weak? My legs still had splatters of blood from that dead
