Dante's POV"I was of the opinion we adhere to their condition the last time but you refused now see what is going on," one of the elders said angrily, I turned and looked at him surprised that he could even suggest we give out our own just to make peace. "How about we start from your household since you are so desperate to damn fifty lycan generations to those miserable creatures" another elder shot back."What do you mean start from my household, I only brought a suggestion" I just sat there as I watched them argue about the next step to take, I called upon the elders, hoping to find a solution to the pandemic plaguing our pack. But instead of focusing on the urgent matter at hand, they veered off into arguments about something else entirely. Sitting there, my heart grew heavy with worry and confusion.Thoughts raced through my mind, a whirlwind of concern and frustration. How could they lose sight of the pressing issue we faced? The safety and well-being of our pack were at stake
Dante's POV I clenched my hands into a fist as I sat at the edge of the table, I couldn't help but feel worried for the pack, the witches had been giving us trouble for years but this particular incident blew the roof out of the top, how could they expect me to sacrifice fifty of my pack members to them for there stupid revenge.I find myself pacing back and forth in my head, unable to find any peace of mind. It's like there's a storm raging inside me, and I can't find a way to calm it down. I feel responsible for the pack, and it's tearing me apart that I can't protect them from all this chaos.My mind is racing, searching for answers, but it's like chasing shadows. The more I think about it, the more overwhelmed I become. I've faced challenges before, but this feels different. It feels like the stakes are higher like everything is on the line. The walls of my pack, once unyielding, are crumbling in front of me. It's like the very foundation of our existence is being shaken, and I ca
Dante's POV My heart skipped a beat as I saw Willow sitting there, her presence a delightful surprise and a cause for concern all at once. Excitement and worry mingled within me, creating a whirlwind of emotions that threatened to overwhelm my senses. The forbidden nature of our relationship hung heavily in the air, adding an extra layer of intensity to our clandestine meeting. My heart raced, torn between the joy of seeing her and the fear of the consequences she might face if discovered.A rush of affection washed over me as I closed the door behind me, my footsteps echoing in the silent room. Willow's presence filled me with a sense of comfort and familiarity, like a warm embrace after a long day. But beneath that warmth, a flicker of anxiety danced in my chest, reminding me of the risks we were taking."Why are you so shocked to see me?" Willow asked with a smile tugged at the corner of her lips."What are you doing here" were the first words I managed to make out, I could see a
Evelyn’s POV“My sweet little Queen,” Kilan said touching my body after forcing himself on me as always, “go and wash up and rest I might be coming back before the morning sun” I was not surprised that's how he does it, beat and rape in the morning afternoon and night its kind of his lifestyle now.“Hmmm” I nodded my head positively, that's the only way I can avoid his beating, my body was already full of so many scares that's it now difficult to hide them.“You see, keep being a good girl and no one will harm you,” he said with a smile on his lips as he stood up from the bed and started to wear his clothes, this is what I have been facing ever since I ran away with kilan, a life of suffering and pain. And it was all my fault if I had just listened to my parent and married Dante things would have been different now.“Take care, my lady, call Annabel if you need help,” Kilan said after putting on his clothes, he gave me a forceful kiss on the lips before heading out of the room.As I L
Vanessa’s POV“My lady that dress looks very beautiful on you,” Aphrodite said as I walked out of my dress area, I had called her to help me prepare my bath and to keep me company since Dante had been gone for a while and hadn't returned.“Thank you, Aphrodite, just out of curiosity how did you guys know my size before I was brought to the palace” I asked as I saw the perfect fitting of the dress through the mirror, I couldn't help but wonder how they knew my perfect size.“Actually we didn't, your wardrobe was arranged the day you came, there is a palace stylist in charge of stuff like that” she answered with a smile on her face.“That makes sense,” I said as I sat on the edge of the bed.“Why don't you go for a stroll my lady, you've been in the room long stuff” Aphrodite suggested, I was confused by her suggestion, didn't she know about the epidemic in the pack?“I can't do that even if I want to, Dante had strictly warned me to remain in the room because of the sickness spreading”
Evenly’s POV My heart was beating in my chest as I stood outside Alpha Dante palace, contemplating whether I should go inside or not, this place was my only hope after my parents rejected me. A mix of fear, regret, and disbelief coursing through my veins. The weight of my parents' disapproval and anger hung heavy in the air, suffocating me. How did everything go so wrong? How did I end up here, standing alone, abandoned by the ones who were supposed to support and love me unconditionally?Tears streamed down my face as I replayed the events of that fateful day in my mind, after I had managed to escape from Alpha Kilan my parent looked me in the eyes and told me that I wasn’t their daughter. The whispers of disappointment and judgment echoed in my ears, haunting me. I never intended for things to turn out this way. I never wanted to hurt my family, especially on what was supposed to be the happiest day of my life.But I was stupid and naive, I thought Kilan was the man of my dreams, a
Chapter 40Vanessa’s POV“My lord, I was just leaving,” Aphrodite said bowing her head to Dante before leaving the room, while I just stood there confused and dumbfounded, I couldn’t believe what was happening, my sister coming back to take her rightful place, she doesn't even have a place in this palace to begin with.Fury ignited within me as I replayed those words. How can she claim that she was the one destined to marry Alpha Dante, not me when she ran away with her lover without thinking of the consequences? How could my sister come into my house and make such a bold statement? The audacity of it all fueled my anger even more.Feelings of betrayal washed over me. I couldn't help but think back to the time when I was forced to marry him because of my sister’s drastic decision. She had made that decision for herself, believing it was the right thing to do. And now, here she was, trying to take my husband away from me.“What is going on here?” Alpha Dante repeated when we both did n
Vanessa’s POV"You can stay here as long as you want, I'm sure vanessa wont mind." He said to her. Was this misplaced kindness or he just wanted to torture me? **I tuck my hair behind my ears as I walk towards my sister’s room, although I haven't gotten over the shock of Dante allowing her to stay here I couldn't help but think about what she said earlier about Kilan abusing her, I felt like I needed to know if she was doing fine. Because no matter what happens she is still my sister and I love her.I took a deep breath as I entered Evelyn’s room, knowing that this conversation would be difficult but necessary. I saw her sitting comfortably on the bed, the expression on her face changed immediately after she saw me. I walked towards her and sat beside her on the bed, “I am sorry about earlier, kilan had no right to lay his hands on you,” I said calmly, trying to let her know that I understood what she might be going through. I could feel the weight of her pain lingering in the air.
