EMILY'S POV It was still dawn, yet loud noises already filled the air. The Omegas of the Laborers’ quarters were back in their numbers, larger than the ones we had seen yesterday.I'm yet to recover from all their drama yesterday, here they are again so early. I can imagine what the king goes through in maintaining serenity in this kingdom.Leadership isn't easy at all, uneasy lies the head that wears the crown truly. I sighed.The wolf chief was trying to calm them down but they were not listening to him, they were still murmuring but immediately I stepped out of the palace, stepping on the platform, everywhere was quiet.All eyes were on me. I made a throat-clearing sound and then spoke.“My fellow omegas, your Luna has heard your plea and I have decided to grant your request. Yesterday, all of you wrote many things, many of which were highly impossible but out of all of them, one spoke the voices of the people. The petition stated clearly ‘Give us our freedom, we want to go h
EMILY'S POVI saw a pillar behind me, which I quickly leaned on, comporting myself from falling.“Be careful my Luna.” The chief wolf rushed to help me. “Now I see what you mean,” I said to him while trying to gain my posture.“We need to get whatever it is, out of him. His testimony is important. He may have met many of the others who are like him or he may have met the man who pushed for the rebellion amongst the Omegas at the Laborers' quarters.” My voice was adamant. The wolf chief shook his head in agreement.“But how the hell do we get him to let you or let out the black magic inside him.” I looked at the chief wolf, giving him a direct glare.“Is that not supposed to be your job?” I asked him with a little tease but more seriousness in my voice.“Ah yes, of course, I will get on it immediately.”I chuckled a little at the way he rushed out, forgetting to lead me back outside. I reverted my gaze to the boy who was now lying down again as if he was dead.“I will free you from
EMILY'S POV“He is the one!” The old wolf thrust his finger forward.I looked, he was pointing at the Tax Wolf. I looked at the tax wolf, who snapped at him immediately. “How dare you point at me over anything. My allegiance Is pledged to the alpha and the Luna, I could not do anything against them.” “You liar.” The old wolf growled at him.“You are the one who suggested that the taxes grieved for the Queen's village inhabitants be taken away so the palace can send the finance which you wanted too. Your greed is unquestionable. if you could do that, who knows what other atrocities you have committed.”“Guards execute the tax wolf for causing a rebellion and revolution with dark magic.” I read out his sentence and watched the guards drag him out to stay and pin him down as well.“Kill them both. I don't need offenders like them in my palace.” I raised my hand to signal the execution. Other members of the council were shivering where they stood. “My Luna, I could have never done that
EMILY'S POV My eyes widened… Lucas?Stella opened the door immediately. They burst into the room and almost knocked Stella down from their way, as they rushed to the bed and climbed up. Lucas climbed up and Liam stood staring at me.“Oh, my little pups,” I screamed with excitement. “How come, you guys are here now? I miss you so much my darlings but how come you guys are here? What happened?” I asked throwing Lucas in the air.“Father asked us to return with General Thorson because he read your letter and discovered things were steaming up here in the palace and he also said, he'll be needing your attention over there too.” Liam briefed me, still smiling.My eyes went to the door, General Thorson stood there in ordinary clothes, Stella staring at him like he was a glowing god. I shook my head at her but she ignored me.“Oh, that's so nice I missed you all so much.” I put Lucas down so I could hug the smug Liam.“The Alpha sent us, a letter to you.” General Thorson said to me, handing
LUCIEN'S POV Emily is here already?“Emily?” I called out. The tent cover rose and she stepped in, bowing softly. “My Alpha.” I stepped out of my chair immediately and hugged her. The scout captain excused himself and left us.“You got here so quickly. How fast is your horse?”As fast as my desire to be with you.” She flattered me most sweetly, letting me kiss her cheek.“I missed you,” I said, pressing her onto my muscular chest.“I missed you too, but we have no time for this. The enemy is already at our doorstep.” I agreed, letting her out of my arms and I noticed she was already in her armor.“Here is where the enemy is, you said that we could still do something about it.”“Yes, I did. Have you ever played hide and seek?” She asked me.I let out an exasperated smile. “I don't think you are referring to the one you play every night. I want to spice things up.” I chuckled a little.She threw me a light punch, blushing. “That is not what I mean. I meant the children's game, hide
MALCOLM'S POV I looked at the three fair asses on my bed waiting for me. A glass of wine in my hand, but I lost interest in touching it instantly. I sat on a chair close to the bed and with a dry tone, I asked all the girls to go. They refused, pleading to at least warm my bed for the night but I don't fancy any of them anymore. They even tried to seduce me. One rubbing her lips on mine, the other tugging on my trousers to pull them off. I did not react to any of it. Instead, anger lit my face as I wondered why they would not leave. Noticing my countenance, they pulled away from me and left the tent.I sighed, stood up, and went to lie on the bed alone. Almost immediately someone returned to my tent. I heaved, so upset, I shouted.“Get out of my tent you whore, have your ears been made for fancy? How many times will I state that I do not care for any of your disgusting stunts.”“Wow, first time I see a man reject feminine love. Would you prefer boys instead?” Tristan said, clapping
MALCOLM'S POVHe roared at me immediately, and I chuckled loudly. “How does it feel to lose to the so-called lesser beings? Well, I hope you savor it because it is about to happen again.”I jumped toward him, swinging my claws in the air. He dodged the first and the second but not the third, my claws ripped up his skin. He growled in pain, grabbing my hand, and flinging me forward, my back hit a tree and I gasped at the shock but still found myself standing again.Lucien had attempted to attack me himself and I was not letting him.He threw a punch, I dodged him. I went for a thrust but something else happened, it was so fast, that I didn't see it until Lucien was rolling down the hill with Tristan. I think Tristan thought I was losing and pushed Lucien aside but he ended up rolling down with him.I chased after them, watching them fight in mid-air, then Tristan pulled a trick and Lucien could not fight him, Tristan got the upper hand and impaled Lucien with his claws.That was the
TRISTAN'S POV He answered,”yes.” Inquisition in his voice. I noticed and defended myself immediately.“I can't believe it. Before I left she was not even powerful enough to answer the council and be in the throne room. How is she manning the army now?”"My woman is now a force to be reckoned with,” he said. I smiled at the way he was announcing his ownership.I had the urge to laugh but I didn't. Instead, I commended her growth. Now we were near flowing waters and his wounds had healed well. “This is it, we have to camp behind this lake.” We began to move through the water. “We need to inform the Luna that we could not cripple the forces of Malcolm and so the fight is still extreme. And I already lit the flare for her and she is coming this way now and I'm afraid he is going to meet her. We need to get to her before he does.” "But how? There are only two ways to get there and that is… “ we stepped out of the flowing river, soaking wet because we were swimming."Either you go throu
