HarlynAnd he managed to fool Bernardo but he couldn’t fool me anymore. Before I was suspecting, but now? I am one hundred percent sure that he was involved in whatever shit his son was up to and this visit? Was his way of finding out what was going on.“I hope you haven’t told this man any of your plans on what you intend to do to Theo?”I thought. I could feel Bernardo in my head and knew he heard me.“I didn’t tell him. What’s wrong with you? Why are you acting hostile towards him?”I couldn’t believe he was asking me that after hearing what the old man just said. Was he blind or something? It was so easy to see that this man was up to no good.“Our Luna is a feisty one.”Sean said, I resisted the urge to glare at him and tell him to stop faking a smile. My wolf was restless inside me too. Pushing and wanting me to leave the room. This man made me uncomfortable.“I don’t think I am being feisty by telling you the truth, sir. I will appreciate it if you don’t talk about my fathers l
HarlynI didn’t stop walking until I got to our room and closed the door behind me. Only then did I find some peace. It was as if being near that man drained me. Everything inside of me hated him.“He is evil.” My wolf whispered. She knew too. She felt it too but somehow, Bernardo was blinded to the obvious. I don’t know how his uncle could fool him so well but not me. It would never be me. “What fuck was that, Harlyn?” Bernardo asked angrily when he walked into our room. I didn’t even realize that he had followed behind me. “What do you mean? Why are you yelling at me?” I responded.“You damn well know what I mean, why would you act like that towards my uncle? He’s already walking on eggshells around me because of what that bastard did and now you made it worse.” I made it worse? It’s not my fault that he’s blinded to the obvious. “Bernardo, alpha, your highness. I don’t know what clouded your eyes that you can’t see that old man for who he really is but don’t expect me to act
BernardoI followed Harlyn here in hopes of getting her back to my office so that she could apologize to Uncle Sean but here I was, starting to have doubts about him. What if she was right about the things that she was saying about him? What if he really was helping his son?One thing she said stood out for me. At the end of the day, Theo is his son and I am the son of the man who became king instead of him. Could he really be pretending to be okay with me while plotting against me with his son? It was hard to believe that my good old Uncle Sean could do something like that.But then again, Harlyn hasn’t been wrong. All the things she has told me so far have been right. When she told me that man didn’t cause the bear attack. When she told me about the captured women. When she told me about Sophie being in danger and also when she stopped me from killing her brother. Even with JR too.She has never made things up. Why would she make this up? She was right about me feeling her emotions
Harlyn I rushed down towards the main palace in fear of what might become of me. I made a mistake today and it might lead to me either getting scolded which would be the lesser punishment for what I did or getting sent to the dungeon to receive at least ten lashes of cane. It was a horrific experience that I never wanted to happen to me. That's why I always made sure to do all my work on time and make sure to answer as soon as I am called but today, I made a mistake. I was called to the king’s chamber but before I could go, Princess Sophie, the alpha king’s younger stepsister called me and made me wash her feet which took longer than I expected. I thought she would at least tell her brother that she was the one that requested for me but she didn’t say anything and now I am going to face a very angry alpha king. Alpha Benardo is the alpha of the crimson moon pack and is known to be ruthless and unforgiven. Not only was he an alpha but he was king too. Many years ago, his forefathers
Harlyn “Your Highness,”I managed to say. He looked at me, maybe trying to figure out who I was. I couldn’t say anything else as his hazel eyes searched mine. I was drowning in those eyes. He was beautiful. I knew this was the only time I would ever be this close to him so I let my eyes wander around his handsome face. Taking every feature of his godlike face in and marveling at how someone could be so beautiful. “Harlyn? Are you there? Hey?”I came back from the trance his heavenly face had sent me to and heard him calling out my name. He knew my name. “Your Highness,”I managed to say. He finally let me go and I put a distance between us to enable me to think. “You called for me,”I said while bowing down. my hands were shaking. This was the closest I had ever been to the king. “I called you hours ago, why are you just showing up?”I felt the fear rise in me as he spoke. “I, I, I am sorry my king, I was doing other chores,”“What chores are more important than coming to see me
HarlynI couldn’t think straight anymore and my wolf wasn’t helping either, she was so ready to give in. If she could come out, this was the moment that she would have shown up because she was fighting so hard to surface. I sucked in a breath as he pulled me closer to himself and his lips landed on mine in a hungry, wild, uncontrollable, and uncultured manner, feeding at my mouth and demanding entrance. I opened my mouth and his tongue entered my mouth and our tongues danced together. This was my first real kiss in the twenty-something years of my life, the only time I had kissed someone before was when I was seventeen and it had ended horribly, now the alpha king was doing a good job erasing the horrible first kiss experience and replaying it with a steamy memory of the pressure of his mouth on mine as his hands tore the clothes I had on off my body and soon I stood before him, naked. He took a step back to look at me and I heard his intake of breath. I couldn’t believe I was the on
Harlyn “Why are you still laying down there?”His voice got me out of bed. He sounded harsh which was shocking. Why was he shouting at me after what happened last night and a while ago? “My king,”“Get dressed and get out of my room,”He yelled. He was angry but I couldn’t tell why. “But my king,”I tried to protest. “Don’t call me. I want you out of my room right now. And forget everything that happened here last night and this morning,”he warned me. I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. He slept with me, took my virginity, marked me as his, and now he wanted me to go away and forget any of it happened. How will I ever be able to do that? “But my king, last night, you.”I let out and had to stop talking because I was almost in tears. This wasn’t what I thought would happen. He was supposed to tell me I was his mate and tell me that he accepted me and wanted me to be his forever. That was the whole point of the mark. His mark that I now carried on my body. That I will carry for
Harlyn“Why do you look so down? Did something happen to you?”Ava asked. She was acting like she was concerned about me but I knew better than to buy her fake concern that was as fake as her nails. “I bet something did. You spent the night in my brother’s chamber, didn’t you? You sneaky piece of shit,”Sophie let out. I looked at her in shock wondering how she found out and then I remembered the guards at the entrance when I followed the king in and they were there when I left this morning. They must have told her. I couldn’t lie because I knew that would lead to me getting punished. “Yes, my princess,”I told her. “What were you doing in my brother’s chamber all night long? Were you fucking him?”Sophie questioned. I thought of lying and telling her no but when I looked into her eyes, I realized she already knew what happened and was just asking me questions and if I lied, she would probably punish me. The last thing I wanted right now was to be punished. I still felt sore from t
