Antonio's POV : Dad won't listen unless I don't even have to go to this pack. He is dragging me to a thing in which I am not at all interested. What do I have to do with my stepsister's marriage?.. Her mother managed to woo my Dad and become the Queen. I didn't oppose this as I know how lonely he was after my mom died. After that my happiness was my Anna, who was my childhood friend and mate. I got to know that she was my mate on my eighteenth birthday, but I waited for her by keeping the news a secret. She was only sixteen back then. But, the moon goddess hated me so much that, before knowing that I am her mate, she passed away in an accident. After that my life became dark and lonely. That was the time, I truly realised how much my Dad must have missed my mom. That's why when he talked about Amanda, Amelia's mother who was a widow, I agreed. Her husband was my Dad's driver. He was such an honest person that, when he died, my Dad planned to safeguard their family. And they got mar
Kaylynn's POV : The next morning I woke up early as I had to prepare food for the King. I think the King loved my food. Ruby was calling me on my phone early in the morning. I was surprised that she got up early just to remind me. Hm…. My punishment will end in the evening, after that I don't have to worry about this. I haven't seen Kade since he left the kitchen last night. He had the night patrolling duty. If he was on duty, he would have texted me at least once. But, there were no messages at all. Hmmm… he might be with his mate. I am sure he won't be awake at this time. Damn it, I should have brought his favourite breakfast recipes too. With yesterday's information, I can manage lunch and dinner. But breakfast…!! There's no other way, I should call him right away. He took my call after the sixth ring. "Hello…!!" His groggy voice was heard. "Good morning, Darling. My handsome Kade is having his beauty sleep now…!! Idiot, haven't you gone for the night patrolling…??" "Kay, I wa
Kaylynn's POV : As I stood there in an attacking position, I saw him coming toward me step by step. His eyes were red for some reason. That's unusual... I have heard about it somewhere. But I couldn't point out the reason. I sharpened my gaze and waited for him for his first move. As he jumped towards me straight, I moved aside and jumped for his leg and bit him enough to hurt him. I wanted him to know that I won't care about hitting him. As he felt the pain, he roared and jumped on me again, but this time before I could make my move he bumped into me. His whole weight was on me and I could hardly breathe. I could see his eyes sparkling with victory. But, I wasn't ready to give up. I closed my eyes and used all my strength to get a release. As I was out of his hold, I knew I better run than fight with him which will eventually make my energy lose. I can't surrender to him, it's worse than death. Maybe I could outrun him this time. And if I can cross the woods and get near to pack buil
Antonio's POV : I felt much better as my mother's memories rushed into me through the dessert. After having dinner, I went for a walk. I called Charlie and he texted me that he is busy. His nerves…!! I got irked by his response. This is why we say we should keep people where they belong. He is not only my first in command but also my best buddy. And often he forgets that he is my first hand in command. Recently, he has been acting very differently. I went to the lakeside as it feels so peaceful there. My eyes naturally fell on the treehouse where only one lantern was lit. Through the curtains, I saw the same feminine figure moving here and there. To my surprise, I couldn't take my eyes off that figure. Aarghh… What's wrong with me… All these years, I was never interested in even looking at beautiful girls and now I was watching a shadow thoroughly until it went out of my eyes. I don't know what is happening to me. Since I came here I have been feeling weird. And my wolf Josh is
Antonio's POV : After lunch, I have decided that I should give something to Ruby as I feel indebted to her. I called Charlie and he came in ten minutes. As it was my room, he came in unofficially and sat opposite to me. "What's up buddy?? Why did you call me in a hurry??" He asked. "Do you know who you are?? You're my first in command. " "And your best friend too…" he added while smirking. This happens whenever we are alone. "Yes, but it doesn't mean that I would allow you to roam around when we are out in public. Nowadays you are so busy that I can hardly see you. What's up with you??" I asked knitting my eyebrows, analysing each and every move of him. He looked at me in dilemma for a second and said, "I found my mate. That's why I am a little busy… I don't want to share it with you as it's a little complicated now. But, I was planning to do it after the ceremony." "Oh, wow… congratulations… So you were busy with your honeymoon. That's why you were not even caring for my ca
Kaylynn's POV : " It was you…!!" I couldn't believe the stranger I met just now was actually my saviour in the morning. I felt his scent familiar as I came across him. But, facing a lycan too close made me a bit alarmed, I ignored that doubt. He was a tall and well-built man with spectacular features and mysterious eyes. As I collided with him, I could feel Maya purring inside. Hm… I can't believe my wolf is going crazy over a handsome man she just met. What surprised me more was, with his powerful aura and stern face, I never expected that he would apologize. After all, it wasn't fully his mistake. I was lost in thoughts that I didn't notice him coming. I could see that he loved my treehouse and maybe he would like to see it fully. As a good host, I welcomed him. But, I wasn't sure that he would come. But, he did. The house was nothing fancy, and I thought the lycans only liked regal places. He just broke all my perceptions about lycans. He was a gentleman who was nice and frie
Antonio's POV : Kaylynn Grant!! She impressed me with her sincerity towards her pack. Even when she is at risk, she thinks about her pack first. She could be a great Beta. 'A great Luna, or even a great Queen too…!!' Josh buzzed in my head. "I thought, you swear to go after only for destined mate...!!" 'Sometimes, the moon goddess may show some signs... We ignore that, can we...?? ' "Haha, now you also changed your attitude... Great, but mine will never change..." I ignored him and enjoyed the herbal tea she prepared. I could say that just like Ruby, she could cook well. I know I can't say it with tea. But, she did it so well that I could guess her talent. I do not mind coming here everyday just to drink this tea from her. The treehouse was so beautiful with the simple decorations. I could feel more positive vibes as it's a more open space with nature. In fact I hated the stay provided by Ruby, and I would choose this place over anything. I know, if I wanted to stay here, they
Kaylynn's POV: I was so confused and distracted after meeting Tony. It feels like we were so close for ages, that much comfort and sense of security I felt with Tony. When he says something, I feel I could trust him. After all, he is the one who saved me from the trouble. But, I am not sure allowing him to stay here was a good idea. And it would cause chaos especially if the King came to know about this. I am sure I can convince my Dad and Alpha Gerald. As a good host, I have to make them comfortable and happy as long as they don't cross the limits. But, as Tony said, if he is staying for only a few hours, do I need to tell them?? Maybe I should talk about it with Kade. When I thought about him, I noticed that he hadn't contacted me at all for the last few hours. What's up with him/?? Did his mate lock him up?? That thought made me smile. I changed my clothes and I was hurrying back home as I know, tonight my sister Ruby is going to celebrate her shift anniversary. The day when her w
