101. My Second Chance

ALPHA REXTON~~“Do I make myself clear, Nicola?” I added. I had to because I knew he wasn’t scared of me. I knew guilt was eating him up, and even though a part of me wanted to apologize to him, I knew this wasn’t the time to be weak. Nicola’s hesitation twirled in his old, wise eyes, forcing me to add harshly, “That’s an Alpha order, Nicola. I’m dead serious.” His shoulders slumped, the weight of my Alpha’s command causing him to bow his head. I sighed, reliving flooding my system, and I went back to waiting for him to make more bottles of the enhancing liquid. But that relief shattered as fast as it settled within me. Hell! It didn’t even last a second, not when her familiar scent hit me suddenly… too suddenly. One second, I couldn’t perceive her, but the next, it felt like she was standing right beside me—“Princess Seraphina. You come back!” Nicola exclaimed, masking his shock and fear. But he failed to hide his eagerness to deceive her with a smile.I turned, my heart

102. And Never

SERAPHINA~~It happened so fast. Within a twinkle of an eye, I had moved from disbelief to shock, to anger, and then to an emotion no word could ever describe. An emotion that felt like a mix between happiness, rage, and sadness. Happiness because the truth I had been trying to hide was finally out, and now I could face the consequences. Rage because these two dared to go behind my back to dig out a truth that had the potential to break down the life I had built for my daughter. And Sadness because I knew I had lost two things today. I not only lost the respect I had for Nicola but also the hope that I recently revived…. The hope for having the Rexton I used to love back. The hope that I didn’t lose him to that war he went to while I was pregnant with Celeste. I didn’t want to, but I was terribly sad, and I found myself thinking, “I should have listened to Kia. She warned me.”In fact, a lot of people warned me about trusting Nicola with Celeste’s identity. Serena, Kieran, m

103. KIERAN'S POV (8)

KIERAN~~She was crying again. And as much as I would gladly be the man who gets to hold her when she is vulnerable, consoling her and wiping her tears, I hated this. I hated seeing her cry. I despise watching her break… and I would rather take her pain away than sit here, doing absolutely nothing, while she cried her eyes out.“She’s been with him. His scent is all over her.” Alan murmured within me, his own sadness towering over Ina’s. I perceived her even before she got close to the door, and joyfully, I ran to welcome her as Celeste would. Only to see that she was pale and trembling… just because of him. Rexton.I wondered what he did this time as Seraphina and I settled on the biggest couch in the living room. Serena was out doing some Queen duties, and the servants had been dismissed to prepare for the brewing storm. Celeste was also in her bedroom. Probably taking an afternoon nap, leaving just Ina and me in the living room, which meant no one but me was around to see

104. Possessive Shadow

ALPHA REXTON~~I still haven’t been to the palace. I had fought beside the Lycan King twice, yet he never invited me to the palace, and since I found out about Celeste, I understood his reasons. Even now that he was throwing a big party to celebrate the downfall of the rebels, he chose to hold it in the hall situated in the middle of the realm. Everyone was there. Including Seraphina… but excluding Celeste. “We have to talk to her,” Kane muttered, urging me to approach Seraphina. I was aware of what had to be done, but even now that I was finally standing in the same space as her after a week, it didn’t seem like the right time. The music was too loud, even though the potion had long been flushed out of my body… and her scent was too potent, making my heart beat faster than the tempo of the music. “There would never be a good time, and there’s a big chance we won’t see her again after tonight.” Kane was adamant. And he was right. Ever since we got back from the border two

105. Escape Route

SERAPHINA~~In two months, Celeste would be six years old, and in six months, I would have been waiting six years for Rexton’s genuine apology. I had stupidly thought I got that weeks ago, before I took him to the library. However, I have woken up from my dreams and seen him for who he truly was. A manipulative bastard who took me out of the lab so Nicola could do his bidding. So when he started the conversation with another apology instead of his usual demands and annoying remarks, I wasn’t stunned that it had zero effect on me. I watched him through the veil of my indifference, my arms folded tightly over my chest. I didn't feel the heat of the bond because Kia had helped me keep it in check. I also didn't feel the spark of the girl who used to dream of his return. I felt nothing for him in that moment. Not even when he added, “I have wronged you in many ways. I let myself be fooled by a strange woman. I let myself fall into a trap and genuinely believed she was my destined

106. Painful Fate

SERAPHINA~~I have had a week to prepare myself for this moment. I had researched what to do and what to expect when it was done. I had considered the fact that Rexton would try to stop me before I could finish the rejection statement. I had weighed my options. And I believed that I was ready for everything. But I was wrong. I wasn’t ready for his silence as my words bounced off the walls of the room, hitting my eardrums again and again like a death sentence. Also, I was anything but prepared for the excruciating pain that came after. It didn’t start small like a dull ache that eventually grew. It attacked my senses instantly. Flooding my veins, cracking my bones, and devouring me from the inside out. “Is it supposed to be th-this painful?” I whimpered to my Lycan, trying my hardest to keep a straight face and not look pathetic with Rexton in the room. He should never see me crumble. Kia didn’t respond as fast as I would have loved, and for a second, I felt like I was all

107. My Treasure

ALPHA REXTON~~I was a selfish bastard. I was fully aware of that fact. But what choices do I have? Let her go? Let the only woman I have ever loved slip through my fingers again because I was too scared to fight for her? Hell no!I would rather give in to this pain and let it kill me than give up on Seraphina and me again. “Then I would rather take my chances in this hell, Rexton.”Just like she said, hell would be better than letting her go. For her, being with me was worse than this hell. But for me, accepting her rejection would be ten times worse than this hell we were both trapped in. Call me selfish, but I couldn’t care. I—I loved that woman. And a part of me had hoped she wouldn’t be as selfish as I was. That she would pity me and be selfless. That she would consider my pain and change her mind. Yes, I wasn’t just a selfish bastard, but I was a manipulative one as well. I would do anything to get Seraphina’s love back. I would be any kind of person to make her see

108. KIERAN’S POV (9)

KIERAN~~At the sound of his voice, my left leg froze. Who was I kidding? My entire body froze. “... Wait to see what happens to her if I die.”My heart hammered against my ribs, a frantic beat that clashed with the low, pained whimpers coming from Ina. “Let him be, Kieran.” She had been begging me since the very first kick. But I didn’t listen. I couldn’t listen because I wanted to end her suffering, and I thought I was doing it right until she whispered after Rexton’s foul words had me turning into a pillar of ice. “You… you are hurting me, Kieran.”It was then that I realized that no matter what I did, I couldn’t take away her pain. This bastard was the only one who could, and he had decided not to. And hitting him was the same as hitting Ina. Anything I did to him, she would feel because even though she had rejected the bond, she had acknowledged it, feeding it more power that would punish her until Rexton accepted her rejection…. Or until she took it back and they both

109. Beautiful Confession

SERAPHINA~~I tried to sleep through the pain, but it was impossible. The fractured bond kept me up all night, and in turn, I kept Kieran up all night, groaning and tossing around within his arms. And not once did he complain. If anything, he held me tighter and whispered comforting words to me all night. “How are you feeling?” Kieran asked from behind me, using his fingers to draw circles on my stomach. My back was to his chest, but I knew he could tell how I was feeling. “Terrible.” I still responded, though, turning around to look at him. Kieran’s eyes were bloodshot, the dark circles under them a testament to a night spent on guard for me. He looked at me with so much tenderness that it made the fractured bond ache even more.“I hope I don’t look as terrible as you do.” I managed to crack a joke. A not-so-funny one, but Kieran still smiled, brushing my disheveled hair out of my face. “I can bet the whole realm you look worse, Ina.” He countered with one of his, his sm

110. Green Pills

SERAPHINA~~It was still unfortunate that even though Serena’s voice saved me from Kieran, it didn’t save me from the embarrassment that came afterwards. I was in Kieran's arms, and she was outside my door. She must have perceived Kieran, and when I let her in, she will still perceive him all over me. After all, I spent the night in his arms. I felt Kieran shift beside me, his muscles tensing as he prepared to face his Queen. He didn't move away, though. If anything, he stayed close enough for me to hear his heart beating erratically, a loud reminder of the words he had just said to me. “Seraphina?” Serena’s voice echoed again. “Y-yes, Serena. A second, please," I finally answered, forcing myself out of Kieran’s arms. But before I could get off the bed, another wave of pain hit. My legs buckled under the intensity, and I fell back onto the bed. “Easy, Ina. “ Kieran exclaimed softly, holding him again, but when I reminded him that Serena was still at the door, he added, “I wi
