It is a total bore if I had to say judging from the first ten minutes I have been here.
People were so fake in the royal court. Smiling at you and being kind till you turn your back on them and their already stabbing you in the back and judging you.
I rolled my eyes as a few ladies to my right started giggling about god knows what.
Till they mentioned Axels name which piqued my interest.
"Poor Delilah doesn't see that her beloved is cheating on her."
One of the ladies scoffed before she crossed her arms in annoyance.
"He was fine last week but now he refuses to be swayed into bed."
I cringed at the fact that Axel is a man whore before shaking my head to clear my thoughts.
What he does is his business. It's not my right to pry.
I moved away from the group and scanned the crowd only to see Axel walking towards me.
Oh no.
What the hell does he want now? I internally groaned as he approached me.
"Can we
Continued..."Nevaeh," he said surprised as he rushed to me and gathered me in a hug.I smiled and wrapped my arms around his form as his grip tightened."What are you doing here?" I asked with a wide smile.He pulled away holding me at arms length as he smirked."Well I knew my two girls probably missed me from the short amount of time we've been apart. And plus..."He trailed off as he looked back at Delilah and narrowed his gaze."I should have come earlier from what I've heard about you and Avrils mates. You both only told me about Avril being Alejandro's mate. Why the fuck didn't you tell me about yours? Why would you put yourself through this!?"From what started out as a soft tone ended in a demand. I kind of expected this reaction from him."I didn't tell you because I knew you would react this way. Dad and I are only here for the week. That's all I needed to look forward to. To leave this place. And bef
"Why are you all in here," Axel asked."We were hoping for a private discussion, we had no ill intention to offend you by coming here without permission," Frederick replied as he stood up to address him formally with a slight bow before he straightened up."None taken, Do you mind if we join?"Without waiting for a response Axel walked further into the room gesturing for Alejandro to close the door before he took a seat by me. Alejandro and Delilah sat on the couch facing Avril who sat lazily on the lazyboy ignoring everyone.I raised a brow at his rudeness and looked at Frederick as he frowned.The annoying thing I've noticed about Axel is that he thinks he can do whatever he desires regardless of what everyone else wants."Alpha..."Frederick trailed off as Axel met his gaze with a raised a brow."Is there a problem Gamma?"I noticed how irritated Ricky was getting by his tense posture and the ragged breath
"You should leave me here, that way I can learn on how to look after a pack. Beta Benjamin can watch over me while..." "Beta Benjamin is coming with us," he interrupted with a raised brow. Amusement danced in his gaze as he watched me fight my way out of not assisting him in visiting the Alpha king. "The more reason for me to stay. who's going to look after the pack while we're gone. We cant leave the pack defenceless," I said with a victorious smirk. "You wound me Nevaeh. Do you not think I am capable of looking after the pack." I turned around facing the new voice and groaned. "Frederick, why did you have to show up. I nearly had him," I grumbled folding my arms across my chest. My father chuckled and stood up walking towards me placing a kiss on my forehead. "Not even close pup. Frederick will be staying while your brother learns off him during the time we're gone." I rolled my eyes and glared at Frederick who grinne
It took us eight bloody long hours before we finally made it to the Alpha kings territory. I was in a cranky mood since my wolf was on edge and wanted to be let out for a run. I got out of the car stretching my poor muscles and looked at the building in front of us. It was huge but not as big as I imagined it to be. "I thought his pack house would be bigger than this," Avril said voicing my thoughts. "This isn't the pack house. This is the Alpha kings home aside from the pack house." I gaped at what my father said considering it was a huge house. And just for one person? thats ridiculous. "He lives here by himself?" I asked curious as to why the Alpha King doesn't stay in the pack house. "No he lives with his chosen Delilah," my dad said as we started making our way to the front. I nodded in understanding since some wolves do choose chosen's over their mate. Its rare when they do choose someone as their mate so its
"Avril where are you?" I mind linked trying to get her to open up the barrier she created in her head. I wondered the halls trying to use my senses to locate her. "I'm outside in the forest. I want to go home, I don't want to be here anymore Nev," she said through the mind link. I sighed rubbing my temples before making my way outside. My heart broke a little as soon as I saw her. She sat with her knees against her chest leaning against a tree while she sobbed. "Aww babe don't cry," I cooed as I took a seat next to her on the ground. I wrapped an arm around her shoulders hugging her to me as she cried. "He's my mate," she snuffled as she wiped her eyes. "I know. I knew from the moment you screamed at the mere sight of him," I said with a chuckle trying to lighten up her mood. She looked at me with a deep frown as tears stained her cheeks. "I can't
We followed the lady down multiple halls before she finally stopped in front of a door."Lady Avril this is your stop. Warrior Alejandro has requested to Bring you to his room."I looked at Avril to see her eyes narrow at the woman in front of her."You can tell Alejandro that is inappropriate. Tell him to meet me in the lounge," she said as she spun on her heel walking away with her chin raised proudly.That girl is too bloody stubborn, I thought chucking. She probably doesn't even know where she's going.The lady in front of me sighed before her eyes glazed over giving me the impression she was mind linking someone. Probably notifying Alejandro of his defiant mate.I smiled at her when she looked at me causing her to smile back before she started walking again. I recognised these halls as we walked the same path earlier coming to Alpha Axel's office. I placed a hand on her shoulder halting her movements. She turned around and raised
The sound of hushed voices filled my ears as I slowly gained consciousness."Why the hell is she doing this to herself! I know you know something Avril!," my father demanded."Alpha I assure you I have no idea why she did this, don't you think I would have done..."She trailed off catching my fathers attention. I internally frowned wondering what they were talking about."What is it?""King Axel," she said.Before she could say any more I willed my eyes to open and groaned when I tried to sit up. I realised they were talking about me, and I did not need my father knowing about Axel and I."Nevaeh," my father said as he rushed to my side.I looked at him offering him a smile as I met Avril's gaze."He doesn't need to know,"I mind linked her not wanting my father knowing about Axel.She nodded at me before looking at my shoulder that had healed now in concern.
"Nevaeh, please come in," she said as she gestured to the seat across from her.I looked at Avril before I walked into the room and sat down, with Avril following close behind."I've noticed a few things since your arrival. For example, the behavior of my chosen," she said as she sipped her tea while keeping her eyes on me.Her eyes held mischief which caused me to be alert. She probably figured out we were mates. I didn't get any negative vibes from her though, which confused me to no bounds."I don't know what your implying,but-""I know your mates Nevaeh. It takes a blind fool to not see the way helooks at you," she saidsmirking.I raised abrow at her behavior curious as to why she isn't glaring at me."Why are you so calm considering you are both chosens," I asked curiously."Oh hush, I'm happy for you. He has been looking for his mate for as long as I can remember. The
