BEHOLD HIS RESOLVE

Chapter 21Behind His Resolve He came closer to where I was lying, his gaze solely on me now.I couldn't breathe just by staring closely at him and I wondered what he was doing to me. I wanted to speak but my words died down in my throat, it was harder than I ever imagined and it looked worse. Why him again?! Why did he come again?!Did he feel my pain?! A lot of thoughts were running through my mind and my heart ached from them.His presence loomed without a word, heavy in the silence that followed.He spoke my name like a breath caught between teeth. “What happened now?! What did you do again?!”His voice sounded like someone that was tired already or maybe, frustrated from all the troubles.“I fell,” I replied softly. “It was an accident.”He looked at me with a tightened face as though I did something that no one should. But, why did he care?! Is this even care or something else I was afraid to say?!He dropped down, hovering near me while his gaze moved slowly, first across

FIGHTING WHAT IS INSIDE

Chapter 22Fighting What is Inside Adelaide’s POVI stayed still after the bathroom door shut, I looked at it as though it was longing for me.At first, I told myself it was only for a moment. Just until the noise of my heart settled, but it kept on.Minutes passed and I was still there, waiting for what I didn't know. Why am I still here?! I thought, my mind accommodating different thoughts. He kissed me and then he told me to leave.From behind the bathroom door came a sound. It was the sound of water, but it felt like something more and it looked like I was not the one controlling my body anymore.It seemed like something was echoing in my mind and it laid heavy in my chest and I couldn't ignore it, so I moved closer to the bathroom door.I kept hearing sounds, but at one point I tried to turn back, but I couldn't. I held the handle of the door, twisting my arms around it.Maybe I should just open it and tell him I was leaving for good?! It didn't make sense! I opened it and

SEDUCE THE ALPHA

Chapter 23Seduce the Alpha Paula froze, staring at me to give her orders. I wasn't expecting anyone at the moment, besides it was late, so who could knock so casually?!Paula's hand was still half-raised from where she had been tucking the blanket tighter around my shoulders.“My lady…” she whispered, her eyes moving over to the door. “Should I… should I open it?”Another knock came again.“Yes,” I said, looking straight at the door as though something bad was about to happen. “Open it.”Paula moved quickly and then she opened the door a bit to see who it was first. “It’s the pack physician,” she said, stepping aside.He entered carrying a small box with herbs in it. “My Luna,” he greeted. “Forgive the late hour.”I nodded, adjusting the blanket. “You’re welcome.”He glanced once around the room, then toward Paula, then back to me. “The Alpha sent for me. He asked that I check on you.”My throat tightened at the mention of Kaius. I swallowed it down.“I’m fine,” I said, even when

CHANGE UNEXPECTED

Chapter 24Change Unexpected “You look fine,” she said, though she was smiling now too. “You just don’t know it yet.”She picked up a small bottle. “Scent.”I leaned back. “I already smell like herbs.”“This is different,” she said, dabbing a tiny bit onto her wrist. She held it out. “See? Not strong. Just… warm.”I hesitated, then nodded. “Okay.”She dabbed some onto my wrist, then another spot just below my ear.I inhaled it and it was nice.“Oh,” I murmured. “That’s… nice.”She grinned. “Exactly.”Then came the hardest part.“Eye contact,” she said.I stiffened again. “No.”“Yes.”“I can’t.”“You can. Look at me.”I tried, but I wasn't getting it yet and I relaxed a bit, but when I looked at the mirror I looked different.We repeated it. My chest tightened, even though it was just Paula.“Good,” she said softly. “That’s it. Don’t rush. Don’t look away first.”We also tried the walk again. This time, I didn’t think so hard. I just moved.Paula’s mouth fell open. Then she clapped. “

SHEILA REQUEST

Chapter 25Queen Mother's Request “You’re getting obvious, my lord…”That made me turn to look at him, he shifted back a little as though reading my thoughts. He stole a gaze at me and then acted as though he was smoothening his dress. Rafaello had served beside me since before I became Alpha. He had seen me bleed, seen me rage, seen me stand in silence after loss. If anyone could say such a thing without fear, it was him and I knew what he saw and observed was right, just that I wasn't one to admit.“Something happened,” he said, not as a question, but like he was so certain of it.“No,” I replied.He waited, looking at me and turning away at intervals, as though there was something in my eyes. I didn't speak to him either, I didn't need to.After a moment, he nodded to himself. “Adelaide.”“You do not call her name casually..” I said, folding my arms over my chest. He bowed, “I'm sorry my Lord. I didn't mean to sound offensive..” he said and I nodded.“Well… she is.” I finally

The Ride

Chapter 26The RideChristine stood and bowed once more. “It will be done.”As she turned to leave, the Queen Mother spoke again.“Games are most enjoyable,” she said, “when the other player does not know they are playing.”Christine smiled to herself as she exited the chamber.And behind her, the Queen Mother remained seated, already imagining how the elders would shift once the first question was asked.She laughed, taking another cup of coffee from what was served. ____Adelaide’s POVI was bored inside and needed to stroll a bit, so I decided to step out of my chambers for a while.Paula had been busy, the maids were whispering again, and I could feel my thoughts turning in circles. So I stepped out, wrapping my shawl tighter as I moved down the corridor.Suddenly, I hit something hard. I was looking at the floor when it happened.I looked up immediately and saw him standing with his face tightened.Kaius.For a second, neither of us spoke. The hallway seemed to thin around us.

PAULA'S QUESTION

Chapter 27Paula's QuestionsThe Queen Mother set the cup down untouched. “Unacceptable.”She turned sharply, boiling with anger. “Kaius does not need calming. He needs focus.”Christine lowered her head. “What would you have me do?”The Queen Mother paced the room once, then twice. “We remind him of duty.”“How?”She stopped. “The council meeting is in two days, correct?”“Yes.”“Good,” the Queen Mother said. “We will raise concerns.”“About Adelaide’s health?” Christine asked.“And her usefulness,” the Queen Mother added. “A Luna who cannot yet produce an heir is a risk.”Christine hesitated. “That may anger the Alpha.”“That,” the Queen Mother said coldly, “is the point.”Christine nodded slowly. “And Adelaide?”The Queen Mother glanced once more out the window. Adelaide had disappeared inside now, but the image of her smile was still there in her mind.“We watch her,” she said. “Closely.”Christine’s voice dropped. “There are rumors, Your Majesty. About her magic.”The Queen Mothe

THE ALPHA's OFFER

Chapter 28The Alpha’s OfferI opened my mouth, then I closed it back immediately, I was nervous to answer the question.Then I saw something like images, I saw how he looked at me when he thought I wasn't looking at him.“I…” I began, then stopped.Paula waited, looking at my face from the corner.“I don’t know how to score him yet,” I finally said.Her brows lifted. “Score him?”“Yes,” I said. “Because if I say yes, then it means something. And if I say no, it also means something.”She laughed softly. “You’re overthinking.”“Maybe,” I said. “But everything here has a price.”Paula reached across the table and squeezed my hand. “You don’t have to decide anything today.”I nodded. “I know.”She leaned back, smiling widely. “Still, I’d say he’s earning points.”I looked at her and smiled, though covering my face so she won't see how much I did.I lifted my cup again and took another gulp. “Thanks for the coffee…” ____Kaius' POV“What is it?!” I barked while in my room as I spoke to

WHAT IS MINE

Chapter 29What Is MineKaius’ POVMy hand stayed on her skin longer than it should have.Magnus was stirring inside me asking me to claim her as always. I couldn't resist her and I couldn't really tell what she was doing to me. “Stop..” I said almost like a whisper to Magnus, trying to stop him from forcing me further, even though I wanted it. “Did you say something?!” Adelaide asked, staring at my face directly.I shook my head, but my hand couldn't leave her skin. I traced my hand down her shoulders and then grabbed her waist like it meant the whole world.I only wanted to pull her closer to myself, but I found myself doing more than I expected. Damn!! What is she doing to my head?! Then I spoke again, looking at her bare shoulders.“Why would you dress like this?” I said. “Do you know what you do….”She froze and that made me stop talking immediately.I looked closely at her face, but I didn't see any form of fear in it, but her reaction wasn't something I was expecting. Why

A Bait FOR THE LUNA

Chapter 30The Queen Mother's QuestionsThe question was bait and I knew it.“I don’t believe people can be owned,” I said carefully. “And I don’t see the value in reacting to intentions that were dismissed.”There was silence for a second and then she looked at me and laughed out loud, like I said something funny.That was when I noticed that she has been keeping tabs on me and might even know more than I knew.“How interesting,” she murmured. “You are not what I expected.”She rose from her chair and walked toward me.When she stopped in front of me, she looked me directly in the eyes.“You should understand something,” she said, her voice lower now. “Alphas don’t love.”The words settled heavily between us.“They choose,” she continued. “They calculate. They protect what strengthens them and discard what does not.”I looked at her. “And what do they do with what they possess?”She smiled. “They guard it. Fiercely. But possession is not devotion, Adelaide. Don’t confuse the two.”He
