The delivery went for what felt like hours but was actually an hour interval and during the period, I gave all my effort into pushing while praying that nothing was wrong with my kids. During a period of the delivery, I heard a faintly familiar voice identifying as the father of my children and needed to be present with me in the delivery room. After much discussion and confirmation from Amada, if indeed he was, I saw the door leading to the delivery room being opened and a majestic figure that I thought would not be able to find me walked in and went straight to my side. I was shocked when I raised my head to see that it was truly the Prince of the Lycan that walked in. "How did you..." I wanted to ask what he was doing there and how he found me but because of the pain of the labor, I let out a scream instead as I pushed one more time. "Sh... don't talk. We will discuss this later. Right now you need to concentrate on what's at hand." He said gently grabbing my hand I listened t
“Oh… remember,” saying that, the shadow appeared again, “the moment you see an opportunity, don’t hesitate to bring her to me.” He continued “Yes, your majesty. What about the kids, should I also bring them?” The shadow asked “No, don’t. They will be guarded and monitored closely by their father’s guard. Just bring her when an opportunity arises. I only need her.” He stated. "Yes, your majesty." He bowed and disappeared once more. Liam looked ahead of him as he watched Loreland her kids fade from sight before concealing the dangerous glint on his face to that of a gentle and loving smile when he heard someone approaching from behind. **** Lorel It's been precisely four weeks since we left my father's house and came to live in Dante's castle. I was in disbelief when I first laid my eyes on it. I could not believe that such a gigantic building was in existence in this current world. Although it is located deep in the forest and high on top of the hills, I was nevertheless shocked
The sudden sound of my study door being knocked brought me out of my neck deep concentration on the documents before me.Feeling irritated at being disturbed, I gave out a grunted response to the person that dared to disturb my work.“Y… your Highness, It’s an emergency… there’s been an incident.” Came the hurried strained voice of my betaHearing his voice and knowing fully well that he would not bother me if it truly was not the case of an emergency; I yielded and permitted him to enter.“This had better be good and worth my attention,” I said irefully the moment he walked in. “Y…your Highness, t…there’s been an incident” He stammered and my irritation flared up the more.“You’ve said that just now.” I cut him off.“Emm… the thing is… Lady Lorel’s guards were found unconscious and heavily injure mentally in the passageway leading to your study and when I investigated and asked the guards that stayed to watch over the young princes and princess, I was informed that they left with L
“Dad, where is mum?” Tristan asked me the moment I stepped in. He looked at me with so many suspicions in his eyes and I knew right away that he already knows that something had happened to their mum.“Dad, where’s his mum? Why has she not come back since she left to see you?” He asked again by bombarding me with questions.“Yes Dad, she promised to return immediately after talking to you but has not and it’s been hours already.” Trevor chipped in, walking to stop in front of me.“Dad, say something. Where is mummy? Did she go somewhere without us?” Haya asked agitatedly and I could see the tears gathering in her eyes gradually but I knew that my answer to all their inquires about their mother would let those tears fall off her face which would completely break me. I hate to see her cry. I hate to see any of them sad and I know my answer would lead to their sadness.I glanced at her siblings and they also stared at me expectantly waiting for a response from me.However, this is not s
Finally, when things have been properly explained to them, I directed them to their rooms so they could have an early night and made sure to double the security around them before finally contacting my Omega for an update. I was in my office making out calls to all the Alphas in the nearby territory and ordering them to join in the search of my mate when the door leading to my study suddenly opened without warning. I let out a warning growl ready to tear through the bones of the person that dared to come in without permission even before I raise my head to see who it was. “Dad, it’s me” Tristan’s voice flowed in through the opened door. “I let down my guard immediately and looked towards the door. “Tristan, what are you doing here? Why are you not asleep yet?” I asked surprised by his presence. “I could not sleep”, he simply said before going to sit on the couch at the right corner of my study. I stood up from my desk and walk towards him, “Why, son? Is something bothering you
“W…what do you mean?” I asked perplexed and at the same time not able to take his words seriously. I mean what does a six-year-old kid know? Though h might be more mature than his age, his claim of locating his mother within a few minutes of knowing about her disappearance was not something I know he was capable of. “Dad, I believe you are still of sound mind and in total control of your Lycan to understand what I just said. I don’t need to repeat myself right?” He cut rudely through my thoughts. “Young man would advise you to watch your words…” I cautioned and was about to dismiss him back to his room when he cut me off. “I’m sorry Dad, I didn’t mean to be rude. I know you are under a lot of tension with Mother’s disappearance but I’m being serious and saying the truth here. I know where Mother is and the more time we waste here, the chances of losing her location become bigger” He quickly apologized and urges me. I stared at him for a while before deciding to hear him out. What
We were about a few miles away from the pinned location of my mate and just arrived at the spot where we planned to ditch the cars and change to our Lycan forms when I received a call from Tristan. At first, seeing his call, I got upset and wondered why he was still awake at such a late hour after sending him off to bed, but on second thought that something serious might have happened to him back in the palace, I immediately picked the call after the first ring. “Why are you still awake? Is anything the problem?” “Dad, are you there? Have you seen mum? Is she with you now?” He ignored my questions and instead bombarded me with questions of his own. “Not yet son, don’t worry we are just a few miles away to where she is. Is that why you are still…” I was saying before he cut me off. “Hurry Dad, I can no longer see her pinned location on the map, it suddenly disappeared. I think something might have happened to her or they discovered the tracker on her.” He hurriedly urges me. It wa
LorelWaking up for the second time after I was taken, the first thing I felt was the excruciating pain that was cursing through my body making me winch out in protest before opening my eyes.I could guess why my body aches a lot but I didn’t want to dwell on it because memories of what had happened in the past few hours would rush back and right now, I didn’t want to dwell on them.Notwithstanding, the events flooded my thoughts before I could stop it, if that was even possible, stopping it I mean.The first thing that flashed through my head was waking up in an unknown place with my hands tied behind me hence limiting my freedom to move as I wanted to, and panic hit me, and wondered what was going on.[Where am I? Why are my hands tied?]All I could last remember was being escorted to Dante’s study by my guards because he wanted to see me but before we got to his study, the guard that came to inform me had suddenly attacked the remaining guards and rendered me unconscious.Then I fi
