ELEANOR’S POVI opened my eyes to see a figure starring down at me.“Arthur...” I mumbled. Not sure I was trying to find out if it was him as I knew no one else was in the suite with me asides him.He made to speak but I leaned up, grabbed his face and kissed his lips.I apparently didn’t care about what I was doing or maybe I just didn’t know what I was doing.When I finally broke free from his lips, a bit of my senses returned alongside my shame that left me for that brief moment.“Erm, I’m so...sorry...I just...”The only thing I thought to do next was shove myself in my bed covers never to ever show my face before him again only that his next action took me off guard. He gripped my hand and pulled me to face him.Frozen, we stared at each other saying no word. My shameless heart thudded so much I thought he probably could hear it. Before I could say jack, he bent towards me and his lips took my tiny ones.The world stopped, even my heart and everything else. He started to kiss me
ARTHUR’S POVI woke up the next morning to see my human mate lying beside me on a bed!“Where the heck am I?” I muttered in confusion as I looked around the room. My wolf tingled in me with excitement and like a rush of wave it all began to replay in my head, the events of the previous night.What the hell have I done...I made to get myself out of the bed but she stirred and rolled towards my body.I froze and couldn’t move as I didn’t want to wake her. I would die with embarrassment if she caught me in bed with her that moment. I must leave before she wakes up. I tried to move her hands which she had placed on me away but she rolled further closer to me.I cursed and clenched my jaw. I stared down at her, she was snoring soundly, without any care in the world in the most innocent face I had ever seen.As I stared at her face, images of her while we had a passionate time the previous night came rearing up in me. Her face looked so calm and kept drawing a part of me I had kept only f
ELEANOR’S POV“Get your things, we are leaving now...” my annoying mate told me two days after our little romance session, something I still couldn’t tell how it happened. We had practically stayed clear of each other’s lane the whole two days and somehow I thought it was for the best. I must get myself together. We had barely stayed days for the supposed honeymoon and here he was asking me to pack and follow him back home.“This is urgent, we are needed and we have to leave.” He added, carefully ignoring my protest.That somehow infuriated me the more. How could he act so inhumane to my emotions...I get they have a trait of monster in their blood but he was seriously beginning to get on my good nerves.“We?” I scoffed, “I am not done here yet.” I insisted.“Yes, we are leaving now and that’s final. Get your things we are leaving now. Meet me at the car.” He threw at me and in a flash, he was stomping away.I clenched my fist wishing I would just forget their print on his handsome fac

Once a public detective but retired by himself when he couldn’t bear to watch the injustice in the police department.Certain he was expecting no visitor, he stood still for seconds wondering who it could be. But when the knock came again repeatedly, he knew whomever was knocking wouldn’t leave until he steps out. He firstly peeped through the tiny door hole but whoever was knocking was smart enough to shield his face from the angle of the door hole.“Who are you?” he asked from inside the house.“It’s me, Captain Depay.”“Captain Depay?”Surprised, he finally opened the door.Captain Depay quickly steps into the house once he opened the door.Once he got in, the stench from the house hit his nostril.

DAYS BACK“I have an idea...a perfect idea to finally bring your cousin down...” Samantha said to Maxwell Murray.Maxwell turned towards her. He chuckled, “My cousin is not one to take down with one move. You know that yourself...”Sam cat walked towards him, she leaned towards his ears, “Don’t you trust me?” she whispered.Maxwell inhaled, “This stretches more than this, Samantha.”Sam gripped his jaw and turned his face to face her. “Do you have a better idea?” Her eyes looked mean and cold.Maxwell lets his muscles relax, then he held her hand and slowly took it down from his jaw. In a flash, he circled his other free hand around her and pulled her to himself roughly. “I can only trust a sure method,” he whispered into her ears.“You have gotten quite bold...” Sam said with a scoff.Maxwell chuckled slightly, “Why? Did you not always want me this way?”She pulled away from him. “I’m not sure anymore. Try not to be too bold for your own good.” She turned towards the door, “Enter.”A
ARTHUR’S POVSometime ago, a lady of my clan had saved my life.

A choice my Luna see as me confirming my hatred for her. But that wasn’t the case, or was it? I knew more than anyone how weak my human Luna is yet I could never have watched this Maya lay hands on Samantha. All my fears and hatred for being mated to a human came rearing up before my own eyes. She is too weak and Maya would only need use her weakest strike to end her.Good thing I allowed only sword fight and there wouldn’t be need for them to fight in their wolves’ form. This way I would have a chance to train her for a physical sword fight. But how long would that take? I doubt she could even hold a sword. If it gets to them fighting in their wolf form, then the entire Crescent pack would learn of the truth about my
SAMANTHA’S POV “Call him,” I ordered my servant.She hesitated.“But Ma’am must you go this far? What if he finds out you are lying to him?”I shot her a glare.“I’m sorry ma’am for speaking out of turn.”“You should be sorry for your miserable self. Now get out and do what I asked...and if Arthur gets a wind of this, do I need to remind you what will happen?”“No... no...no ma’am. I swear to have my lips sealed.”She hurried out, shaking from fear.The plan is to get Arthur to come to me. This way he never gets to train Eleanor. Seeing him train her the previous night made my blood boil. This would be confirming a lot of things to me, depending on how fast and worried Arthur gets to me after my servant tell him I’m sick and at the brink of death, I would know if he still feels a thing for me.You must be thinking why I am going this far. I don’t lose whether a battle or war and that girl annoys me.Her friend claimed she has a werewolf blood but I must confirm for myself. I had the
ELEANOR'S POV “Let’s go.” I said to Jeremy as I stepped out. I worked my body and trained the hardest I have thought I would. “I must live... I must not die by that woman’s hands. I must be alive...I can’t die now...” I kept saying these words to myself as I trained. Wherever this sudden surge to stay alive had come from, I couldn’t say. All I knew was that I was going to do everything to stay alive no matter what. Jeremy put me through the training basics. Unlike Arthur, he tried to be soft with me but I refused to relent. When Images of the bitch Samantha and Maya pop up in my head, it pushes me to train harder. Last night I had crept outside and watched Maya train under the nights as that seem to be the only time she trained. She was quite skilled. Five days would never be enough to train and match up her skill to be able to fight against herself but how can I forget the words of my teacher. “Sometimes, wars and battles are won not by strength but by smartness.” She may be sk
