False Expectations Chapter 52 - Is it all over?
Adelina's pov: The roar I heard a few minutes ago did not belong to anyone other than Maximus of course! He was here! I just could not believe it! He really came for me this time! A few minutes ago I felt alone weak and helpless and I thought I was going to die and now Maximus came, out of the blue to save me. -"Put her down Nicolas!" Μaximus shouted from afar. -"Your Highness, what a pleasure to have you here. Although I didn't expect you, I want you to be absolutely sure that I will take care of you in the best way I can. A way worthy of a King! But please allow me first to take care of your beautiful mate" Nicolas said sardonically. -"This is between you and me. Let... Adelina.... go" Maximus said strictly. -"Or else what?" Nicolas asked arrogantly. -"Don't mess with me Nicolas. You know what I am capable of" he threatened. -"Oh I am so afraid right now....." he said sarcastically. -"You should be" Max replied coldly. -"Don't you forget something my King? What about the Cou
False Expectations Chapter 53 - Hope is lost
Maximus' pov: When Adelina told me to watch out, I pushed her a little and turned towards him. Drako also appeared on the surface. He was furious and thirsty for blood. I must admit that he is unbeatable. He acts so accurately and quickly that no worthy opponent can match him. My nails had already elongated and I quickly sank them into Nicolas' body. In the blink of an eye I was holding Nicolas' still beating heart in my hand. Nicolas' body fell hard on the ground. I left his body there and headed towards Adelina who was lying unconscious on the ground. I picked her up in a bridal style and put her in the passenger seat of the SUV. I sat in the driver's seat and started the engine. I took one last look at her before accelerating. Adelina's pov: When I woke up, I realized I was in a hospital room. I looked around me. There was absolutely no one. The room was empty. A vase of beautiful white roses stood on the table on my right side. Next to it there was a jar of fresh water and an em
False Expectations Chapter 54 - The invitation
Adelina's pov:It has been a month since I last saw Maximus in the hospital. Since then, he has never answered my messages or returned my calls. It's like he was lost in the air. I cannot understand why he disappeared like that. If he was offended by my way, he should talk to me and together we would find a solution. He cannot expect me to follow every order of his like I am puppet. It's absurd!He is so selfish! Of course! He is a King now. He can have whoever he wants! Why stick with me especially when I don't do as he says or follow his lead?-"Don't be silly! Why stick with you? Are you seriously asking this question? Because you are his mate and he loves you! He came to save you! Here's why! Isn't it enough for you?" my wolf scolded me.-"I do not know .... His behavior is very confusing ... On the one hand he comes and saves me and on the other he disappears and does not want any contact with me when I do not agree with his opinion. I just do not understand! I would rather him be
False Expectations Chapter 55 - Green light
Adelina's pov: -" Come in!" I said, sitting behind my desk, reviewing a stack of files. The past few weeks I've been extremely busy: In addition to all my other obligations, I had a wedding to organize. Although my Gamma’s mate took over all the organizing part I had still a lot on my plate. -"Good evening Alpha" Liam said after he made a big bow to me. -"Liam! Please sit. Did you complete your mission?" I asked him eagerly. -"Yes, Alpha. The letter was given directly to the King" -"And what was his response?" Liam hesitated a little before answering. -"You know Alpha.....the King.... said that he doesn’t allow this wedding because you didn't break the previous bond in order to proceed in another. And that according to our law is........." -"Is what?" I asked him impatiently. Inside me a flame of rage smoldered. -"It's.....illegal. He said he......won't allow it" Liam said scared. -"He said what? How dare he? I didn't ask for his permission! I just wanted to know if he was go
False Expectations Chapter 56 - Eternal Hug
Maximus' pov: When I reached the Temple, I realized that it was already too late! The damage was already done. Adelina has apparently accepted Jacob as her mate and this has infuriated our Goddess as our bond had never been broken. The result was our bond to prevent Adelina from getting into a new one. Even if she had rejected me, she could not find a new partner without breaking our bond first. I told her but she preferred not to listen to me. The day of her initiation was also a day of bondage. That night, without knowing anything, she joined me in a sacred ancient ritual under the watchful eye of our Goddess. Through the old vows and psalms, our souls were united for eternity. I did it then to bind her to me as I wasn't sure if I would eventually accept her as my mate and mark her. I know now, that what I did was wrong and dishonest and I shouldn't hide it from Adelina, but back then it was the only way to keep my partner close to me without scaring her. I entered the Temple with
False Expectations Chapter 1 - The family meeting
Adelina’s pov:-"Today is a very important day for our pack. I would appreciate if all my children were beside me when Alpha Maximus Drako arrives. I want us to make a very good impression. We have to earn his alliance as he is the most dominant candidate for the royal throne. Jake you will be with me during the meeting while the girls will be responsible for the reception and the accommodation of the Alpha" our father told us early in the morning during our breakfast.-"But father, I would like to be present in the meeting. I want to show him our economical projects and my ideas about it." I interfered.-"Don't worry my sunshine Jake will show him everything. You know the Alpha's opinion about women and politics. We wouldn't like to irritate him, would we"?-"I suppose it’s ok father. I wouldn't do anything to jeopardize the future of our pack".Our father is very anxious about this meeting and I know why. This isn't only about the announcement of Jake as the Alpha of the pack that t
False Expectations Chapter 2 - The acquaintance
Maximus’ pov:-"I am very glad that the future King will be in the coronation of my son! It's really a great honor Alpha Maximus. I would also like to discuss a very important issue with you if you give me the time your Majesty" the Alpha of Crescent Moon pack said.I am so bored from this attitude of the former Alpha. I want people to tell me what really bothers them without all these compliments and formalities. Little they know that with this way they aren't going to gain anything from me. In addition, my wolf is acting weird and this disorganizes me. He is getting restless by the minute. I don't know what got into him but I’m sure it can’t be anything good.As the Alpha's rumbling continued, a wonderful smell hit my nostrils of jasmine and gardenia. It was the most pleasant scent my nostrils have ever caught. I felt my wolf taking over while my eyes scanned the meeting room. It was then that my eyes caught her, a petite brunette. She was standing at the door ready to enter. She wa
False Expectations Chapter 3 - Alone with the tempered Alpha
Adelina's pov: The next morning came too quickly. All night, I tossed and turned in my bed, unable to sleep. I woke up feeling numb, completely paralyzed. I didn't want to leave my pack. I had projects to run. I had life here. I wanted to be present when we were going to implement my economic plan. All my friends and family were here. I loved my life here and I didn't want to change anything. I preferred to stay here rather than leave with him. But all these will belong to the past in a few hours. My life is going to change radically and unfortunately I do not have the power to prevent it. I can't continue whining about this anymore. I must go on. I must adapt to my new life. Maybe I am overreacting. Maximus doesn't look so bad. Maybe Stella was right after all. Yesterday he was so demonstrative with his emotions. He hugged me and kissed me as a true mate would do. Maybe it will eventually work out. I just have to try and keep faith that everything is going to be fine, right? A knoc
