Isla's POV:I couldn't breathe evenly as I stood stuck at the entrance of the kitchen. For some reason I had imagined Alpha Caden following me to the kitchen and punishing the hell out of me for being so careless around him. I winced as I touched the mark on my neck, feeling a cold connection to him. I felt his hate and disgust for me, and I felt the same for him. I was his mate, but he was not mine. I almost thought he was right behind me but to my relief, when I glanced behind , he wasn't in sight. I greeted the other pack members I met on the way to kitchen. They looked at me with pity and contempt, some of them with disgust and anger.I knew that everyone hated me for being Alpha Caden's breeder as they thought I had sold myself to him.Some of them thought I was too weak and less powerful for him to give an heir. "Can you be quicker? We are already late for dinner. " The head maid said breaking the trance of thoughts I was in. I hurriedly stood beside her by the kitchen counter
Isla's POV:The maid was back on her feet and she moved her hand to check if there was something wrong. Her face lit up when she realised, she was healed properly. "You won't believe it but I am actually feeling a lot stronger. " She told me with excitement. "That's great! What's your name? " I asked with a small smile hoping to find a friend here. "Oh, I am sorry I behaved with you so badly earlier. I am Trisha, my husband works here for the pack and I joined too. " She told me. We talked about the pack and also a little about Sabrina. She was not a fan of her aggressive nature and hated the fact that she owned everyone here because of Alpha Caden. I was glad to know that the maids were just pretending to like her because nobody wanted her wrath. "I know it must be difficult to talk against her but one day she will be punished. " I tried to tell her and she smiled. "I will get back to work now. Please take a rest even if you feel you are fine. " I advised her and she gave a sli
Sabrina's POV:I had always hated Isla, ever since she arrived at our pack. She was too sweet, too kind, too beautiful for her own good. She had everyone wrapped around her finger, especially Alpha Caden, who claimed her as his mate the moment he saw her. I wanted him for myself, but he never even looked at me twice. He was obsessed with Isla, and I couldn't stand it.Even though he pretended to ignore her, I saw the ways he had changed for me as soon as she came here. I was his first time in everything. His mistress, his lover, his pleasure and the future Luna too. I had always believed that he would choose me for him. I had never once cared about his heart, if he had one or not. What I cared was his power… After every war, he would spend his night with me. Every single night. But this time, he didn't come to see me. Instead, what I heard was that he had found a mate who would give him an heir. Heir! I tried 15 times to give him a fuc*ing child but every time it would end with a mi
Isla's POV: I was listening to Doctor Adam telling me about the history of healers in all the packs from the past 3000 years. "This is a special gene and only the ones having the blood of Moon Goddess in their veins can have these special powers. Especially, healers are the rarest ones and are never found in any pack. We have you, our healer, and we can't risk losing you. " Adam told me. It was really difficult for me to comprehend the things he was telling me. All my life, I was taunted for being a cursed wolf and nobody gave me any respect. But knowing that I was a healer changed my perspective towards life. Did I really deserve that hate? "Are you alright? " Adam touched my shoulder and I blinked a few times to concentrate on him. "Yes, I wanted to know if it can affect my fertility too? " Adam frowned and chuckled lightly to himself. "Of course not. It gives you power to fight and heal anyone. " He said. "Shall I leave? I have to go back. " I was more worried about Alpha
Alpha Caden's POV:'She's crying, you assh*le! 'Ezekiel,my wolf, snarled angrily at me. I turned to my left and watched how her shoulders would shake with every breath she took and few sobs escaped her mouth after every three seconds.I wanted to calm her down, I didn't know where this sudden surge of emotions flooded my heart. Heart… But that was not true. It wasn't my heart. I had started thinking about her too much for my own good. I needed to put an end to this obsessive cycle I had for the weak breeder. 'That's not my fuc*ing business. 'I snorted. 'But you made her cry. Didn't you? Why did you need to scream those words at her? Why does it even matter? 'He shouted. 'I was actually trying to sleep, mom. 'I told him coldly. 'Sweet fu*king dreams, bastard. 'Ezekiel muttered under his breath. I shut myself off from his wrath and tried to stop the overwhelming thoughts about my breeder. It was not rocket science to know that I was too lenient on her than I have ever been on anyo
Isla's POV:I dressed quickly into a simple embroidered gown and braided my hair applying some lip gloss. I was still feeling so weak after everything and the exhaustion was making my movements slower. I was still worried about how Alpha Caden screamed in his sleep. I couldn’t believe that I went ahead and put his head on my lap. The way he calmed down immediately with my touch was so amusing for me.‘ He is our mate for a reason. We cannot pretend that his scent doesn’t affect us.’ Riley said.I wanted to think about everything and to plan the next steps. But I didn't want to get in trouble for being late in the kitchen because Sabrina had proved how cunning she could get if somebody was not her favorite. I entered the kitchen, fearing that she would be waiting for me to turn up late and again hurt anyone to take revenge on me. Well, my gut feeling was not wrong and she was actually present there watching over the maids as they cooked the breakfast for everyone. I tried to be quiet
Isla's POV: "I found it! " Doctor Adam clapped his hands together in joy. He helped me in getting up and I sat on the bed as I tried to catch my breath. The kid opened his eyes and rubbed them. He removed the tubes from his hands and jumped out of bed as if he was never bedridden."How are you feeling? " Doctor Adam asked him. "I am feeling good. What am I doing here? " The kid asked. "Oh, nothing. You just fell from the stairs. I will inform your parents to take you back home. Till then, take a rest. " He told the child who again got in his bed. Doctor Adam supported me as we walked out of the patient's room. He gave me a glass of water back in his office so I could breathe properly again. But my energy was still so low and I was seeing black dots everywhere. "You will be fine. I will ask Dr. Crystal to give you the medicines. " Doctor Adam told me. I was overwhelmed by everything which happened today. I couldn't forget the image of that innocent young child in pain. "Why did
Isla's POV:I loved interacting with my wolf. It didn't make me feel lonely and a crybaby. I noticed lots of servants in the palace were running around. They appeared too busy and tense for something. I had felt the same thing when I was in the kitchen. There were more than enough maids too. I saw a group of maids carrying baskets of flowers and others had decoration lights with them. The hall was spacious and elegant, with high ceilings and large windows that let in the natural light. The walls were adorned with paintings and tapestries, and the floor was covered with a soft carpet. The tables and chairs were arranged in rows, with white tablecloths and napkins, silverware and crystal glasses. The centerpieces were vases of fresh flowers, candles and fruits. The maids were busy setting up the buffet, arranging the dishes and platters on a long table. They wore black dresses and white aprons, and carried trays and baskets. They moved swiftly and quietly, making sure everything was
