Racheal's POVAs the man walked into the cave, I could feel my heart racing with fear. I had been tied to a pole for what felt like hours, waiting for someone to come and rescue me. When he saw me, his eyes widened in surprise."Are you okay?" he asked, rushing over to me. He used his fingers to touch my cheeks softly, his touch gentle and comforting.“Never knew you were this pretty," he said, his voice filled with admiration.He turned to Athena who was behind him. "I would have kept her for myself, but she is pregnant." I gasped in shock. I didn't even know I was pregnant. How could this stranger know before I did?"How did you know?" Athena asked.He smiled, a knowing look in his eyes. "I smelt her," he said simply.Athena and I exchanged confused glances. How could he smell that I was pregnant? It didn't make any sense.I could feel the panic rising in my chest as I sat in the dark, damp cave, my hands bound tightly behind my back. I had just found out I was pregnant, and the t
Alpha Axel's POVAs I slipped out of the palace gates, my heart raced with the urgency of my mission. I had to save Racheal, from the clutches of the kidnappers who had taken her. I knew I couldn't trust anyone in the palace, so I had to go alone.I followed the instructions the kidnappers had sent, leading me to a secluded clearing in the forest. As I approached, I saw two figures standing there, waiting for me. My heart sank when I recognized them - Athena, Ardolf."Athena," I said, trying to keep my voice steady. "What do you want with Racheal?"Athena smirked, her eyes gleaming with malice. "Oh, dear Alpha," she purred. "I simply want what is rightfully mine - to be the Luna of this kingdom."I clenched my fists, anger boiling inside me. "You will never be Luna," I spat. "And I will never give in to your demands."Ardolf stepped forward, his voice cold and menacing. "You have no choice, little boy. If you want to see Racheal again, you will make Athena Luna and give me half of the
Alpha Axel's POVI stood at the entrance of the dark cave, my heart pounding in my chest as I scanned the shadows for any sign of Racheal. Beside me, Racheal's mother, a powerful witch, stood with a determined look on her face. A group of soldiers flanked us, ready to protect us at a moment's notice.As we went further into the cave, we came across a lone figure standing in the center. It was Mia, a notorious witch who had been behind the kidnapping of Racheal . I clenched my fists, ready to confront her."Where is Racheal?" I demanded, my voice filled with urgency.Mia smirked, her eyes glinting with malice. "I have no business with Racheal. You, on the other hand, are exactly what I want."Before I could react, Mia began to chant a spell, her hands glowing with dark energy. But before she could unleash her powers, Racheal's mother stepped forward, her own powers crackling around her."You will not harm my daughter," she said, her voice filled with authority.With a flick of her wri
Racheal's POVI groaned as I slowly opened my eyes, the throbbing pain in my head reminding me of the events that had transpired the night before. As my vision cleared, I saw Axel sitting beside me, his eyes filled with concern."Hey, how are you feeling?" he asked, reaching out to brush a strand of hair away from my face."I've been better," I replied, my voice hoarse from crying."I'm sorry, I never meant for you to get hurt," Axel said, his voice filled with regret.I scoffed, "Yeah, well, you did a pretty good job of it."Axel winced, "I know, and I'm truly sorry. But you have to understand, my wounds heal faster because I'm an Alpha. It's not an excuse, but it's the truth."I rolled my eyes, "Great, so not only are you a loving and caring Alpha, but you are also superhuman. Fantastic."Axel sighed, “ I want to make things right. I want to start over, with you. I want to build a family together."I felt my heart skip a beat at his words. "What about the baby?" I asked, my voice b
Alpha Axel's POVI walked into the dimly lit study where my Beta, Daniel, was waiting for me. He looked up as I entered, his expression serious."Daniel, have you heard anything about Ardolf?" I asked, getting straight to the point.Daniel shook his head. "He's still in the dungeons, Your Highness. Waiting for his fate to be decided."I frowned, feeling a pang of guilt at the thought of Ardolf locked away in a cell. "When do you think I should execute him?" I asked, my voice barely above a whisper.Daniel hesitated before answering. "That is up to you, Your Highness. But I would advise you to make a decision soon. The longer he stays alive, the more dangerous he becomes."I nodded, knowing he was right. "I need to confirm something with my mother first," I said, turning to leave the room.I made my way to my mother's chambers and knocked on the door. She opened it, looking surprised to see me."Mother, I need to talk to you about something important," I said, stepping inside.She sat
Racheal's POVAs my mother's eyes filled with tears of joy, she embraced me tightly, unable to contain her excitement at finally finding her long-lost daughter after all these years."Oh, my dear child, I can't believe it's really you," my mother whispered, her voice choked with emotion.She held Davina close, feeling the weight of the moment sink in.Davina, with a warm smile, " Why don't we head to my house to meet my dad? I think he would want to meet you, too."My mother wiped away her tears, her face beaming with anticipation. "I would love that. Lead the way, dear."Just as we were about to leave, the door swung open, and Alpha Axel,entered the room. His presence commanded attention, and his piercing gaze locked onto me."May I have a word with you, in private?" Axel's voice was authoritative, yet tinged with a hint of affection.I glanced at my mother, who nodded understandingly. "Go on, dear. You will catch up with us. Take your time."I followed Axel out of the room, my heart
Racheal's POVLucien hesitated for a moment, then slowly rolled up his sleeves, revealing his bare arms. Sure enough, there it was the distinct birthmark on his elbow.A flicker of uncertainty crossed his face, but was quickly replaced by a stubborn defiance. "It's just a coincidence," he spat. "Anyone can have a birthmark. Now, leave before I call the police."Defeated and heartbroken, my mother took a step back, tears streaming down her face. "I can't believe this," she whispered. "I thought you were my husband, my Reynaldo."With those words, she turned and walked away, leaving behind a shattered illusion of what she thought her life was.As I stood outside with my mother, her tears streaming down her face, I couldn't help but feel a knot forming in my stomach. The words that spilled out of her mouth left me reeling with confusion and disbelief."I swear, Racheal, I could swear that Lucien is your father," my mother choked out between sobs. "But I watched him die, I saw his lifeles
Alpha Axel's POVAs I entered the dimly lit dungeon where Ardolf the usurper was being held captive, I could feel his eyes boring into me. His smirk only widened as he saw me approaching."You finally decided to come see me, Alpha," he sneered.I ignored his taunts and turned to the guards standing by. "Inject him with vervain," I ordered, knowing that the herb would hinder his ability to shift into his werewolf form.Ardolf winced as the needle pierced his skin, the effects of the vervain already starting to take hold. I took a seat opposite him, studying his face for any sign of weakness."Why do you want to take over my pack?" I demanded, my voice firm.Ardolf simply chuckled, his eyes glinting with malice. "Why not? Your pack is weak, and I am strong. It's only a matter of time before I claim what is rightfully mine."I felt a surge of anger at his arrogance. "You will never be Alpha of this pack, Ardolf. You are nothing but a traitor and a coward."He laughed, the sound grating o
