CHAPTER 134: CONFESSION TIME ELENA:"My father told me straight up that he thought you weren't good enough for me anymore," I explained, watching Adrian's face harden. "He said you were going to soon lose your pack and your Alpha title anyway, so my value to him was wasted on you."Adrian gritted his teeth, a low growl rumbling in his chest. "Go on.""When I asked him how you were going to lose everything, my father spelled out their exact battle plan," I said, my voice dropping to a serious whisper. "He told me that your pack is going to be ambushed and attacked by King Seth’s elite Lycan warriors tonight at midnight. You were going to be taken hostage or killed in the chaos, and Julian was going to be installed as the next Alpha of the Blackwood Pack."Adrian's eyes flashed a dangerous, furious gold, and a deep, terrifying growl ripped out of his throat, vibrating through the clearing."Calm down, Adrian, let me finish," I soothed, placing a hand on his arm. "When my father told me

CHAPTER 136: GETTING READY FOR THE BATTLE ADRIAN:After leaving Elena tucked safely into the bed to rest up, I didn't waste a single second. I pulled my bedroom door shut as quietly as possible, turned on my heel, and marched straight down the grand staircase toward the packhouse courtyard.When I stepped outside into the cool night air, our elite combat warriors were already lined up in rows, standing tall and silent under the pale moonlight. Gamma Theo stood near the front, and the moment he saw me approach, he straightened up and called the men to attention.I scanned the rows of hardened, loyal faces, my jaw clenched. I knew what was coming, and I knew the sheer magnitude of the threat heading straight for our gates."Listen up, men," I called out, my voice cutting cleanly through the quiet night. "We’ve got a massive fight on our hands tonight. King Seth’s elite Lycan warriors are moving in on our territory, and they plan to hit us with a full-scale ambush in less than two hours

CHAPTER 138: SAVING EACH OTHER ELENA:I had crashed hard into a deep, heavy sleep, completely dead to the world due to the crushing exhaustion that had weighed down every bone in my body. But right in the middle of that deep sleep, a sudden, violent vision flashed across my mind like a bolt of lightning.I saw a sharp, lethal blade piercing straight through Adrian's chest, right through his heart.I bolted upright from the bed, my eyes flying wide open. I looked around and when I didn't see Adrian in the room, I remembered the impending attack. The raw, primal instinct to protect my mate hit me with such overwhelming, suffocating force that it triggered something deep inside my soul—a massive, high voltage of dormant supernatural powers that I didn't even know I possessed, unlocking inside me without me even meaning to.Before I could process what was happening, my body erupted. I felt like a literal wall of living fire, moving across the floor at blinding, impossible speed. I didn't

CHAPTER 140: NOT INTIMIDATED BY THE ELDERS ADRIAN:The effect of that simple kiss from Elena lingered on my lips long after I left my master suite. I didn't even bother bathing as I marched straight across the estate and headed down the long, dimly lit corridors toward the grand council chambers.I already knew who was waiting for me behind those heavy oak doors. The low-ranking elders who had been bought out by the crown were inside, and my father was sitting right there with them.I threw the massive double doors open, the wood slamming against the stone walls with a loud, echoing bang. All heads turned instantly toward the entrance. Without breaking my stride, I walked straight down the center of the room, pulled out the heavy leather-backed chair at the absolute head of the table, and dropped into it, leaning forward with my forearms resting on the polished mahogany.I swept my gaze across the table, letting a cold, heavy silence hang in the air for a second before I finally spok

ADRIAN: Elena straddled my lap, her chest heaving as our breaths tangled together as the kiss deepened. The sheer crimson silk slip dress she had on was bunched up around her hips, and every time she shifted her weight, the friction sent a violent shockwave straight to my core. I couldn't keep my hands off her. I gripped her tight by the waist, my fingers digging into her soft curves, pulling her flush against me until there wasn't even a breath of air left between our bodies. "Adrian..." she breathed out, her voice a low, ragged whisper that sent a wild shiver tearing down my spine. Her hands came up, sliding into my hair and tugging my head down so our foreheads pressed together. "Make love to me." I stared deep into that fierce, glowing depths of hers. I expected her to still be sore from our love making in the forest last night. “Are you sure, my love?” She nodded, guiding my hand to the centre of her core. I slipped a finger into her panties and the moment I felt her wetnes
