He leaned in closer, his breath warm on my cheek. "I know a place where we can really forget about everything else," he murmured. I felt a thrill of anticipation run through me.

I was getting married, but my boyfriend of five years did not know it yet. Lately, he had been driving a female coworker home every night and coming back late. She had a terrible memory and was always leaving things behind in his car. First it was earrings. Then adhesive bra inserts. Then intimate photos. One night, at midnight, she called to say she had left her allergy medication in his car. My boyfriend pulled his pants back on and rushed out the door to deliver it to her. Because of her, our wedding had already been postponed 19 times. After five years together, I decided to give him one last chance. "Either stop driving her home, or the wedding is off." He stayed silent all night. After that, he actually started coming home on time. I thought things were finally getting better. Then, one week before the wedding, I opened the front door and found half the furniture in our living room gone. The woman next door poked her head out and ran a hand over my washing machine with a smile. "Amanda, we're neighbors now. Ignatius loaned me the money to buy a house. He said I could use some of these old appliances until I get settled." My hands trembled as I opened my banking app. The $300,000 wedding fund we had spent five years saving was gone. Every last cent. This time, I did not even have the strength to argue. Then my mother called. "Sweetheart, how would you feel about moving the wedding to Rose Garden? I think your current venue doesn't do you justice." I looked around the half-empty living room and laughed. "Sure. And while we're at it, let's replace the groom too." After all, my mother had remarried into one of the wealthiest families in the country. My five stepbrothers had been waiting years for me to come home. And among the men around them who wanted to marry me? There was no shortage of candidates.

The news of Diana's disappearance had spread quickly, and it wasn't long before it reached the ears of the king. "She has broken the laws of the moon goddess," he said, his voice booming through the chamber. "She refused to follow the path that was set for her. We cannot allow such disobedience to go unpunished." The king shook his head, his eyes blazing with anger while others listens. "She is a danger to our pack. She has shown that she cannot be trusted to follow the rules." The king's face twisted into a cruel smile. "We will hunt her down. Anyone who defies the moon goddess will suffer the same fate." Just as the king was about to issue the order to hunt down Diana, the doors to the chamber burst open, and in strode Vladimir, the alpha of the pack and the king's son. "Father," he said, his voice was firm and unwavering. "We cannot simply hunt down one of our own." The king snarled, his face contorting in rage. "And what is 'right', for you, Vladimir?" He turned and left the chamber, his thoughts already turning to how he could help Diana and bring her back into the fold. The king's thoughts turned to the possibility that Vladimir was in love with Diana. He knew that it was forbidden for pack members to mate outside of the mating season of the moon goddess, but he also knew that love was a powerful force that could not be easily controlled. But as he sat alone in the chamber, he couldn't help but wonder what the future held for his pack, and for his son. Would Vladimir be able to resist the pull of his heart, or would he succumb to the forbidden love that he felt for Diana?

They cannot believe that the mate who they used to enjoy touchring and upsetting her. Today they are feeling immense pain due to the rejection of their mate. "I have to say the same thing to all of you. There is still time, accept my rejection quickly so that you all can go into the arms of those women that are waiting on the bed." Queen Side said with a cold smile. "You have gone mad, Queen. If we accept your rejection, you will no longer live." Peter said angrily. "I would rather die than be living with you five. Anyway, none of you are happy with this relationship. For you all, the relationship of mates has been only in name. That's why you keep maintaining relations with many women behind my back.

I don't want mates nor do I want my family to hate me being in this world." Queen chuckles at her situation.

"After hiding from me for three years, I've finally found you," I say to her, my eyes scanning her from head to toe. "I wasn't hiding. I was simply living my life without you," she scoffs at me, crossing her arms. "It doesn't matter anyway, because here you are now. You look beautiful."
