Lian's POV With a big smirk on my face, I returned to my chambers. I was neither happy nor sad. "Jennifer is good enough for him," I repeated like a mantra. My voice sounded abrasive, I could feel the uncertainty underlying it. It is no news, I disliked Jennifer and she disliked me too. I couldn't bear to think that at some point someone like her would be the Luna of the Moonlight Pack. My maids trailed behind me as I walked into my living room. After I had dismissed them, I slipped into my bedroom and escaped into my secret chamber. Targon was still on guard. I smiled as I beheld his shining sword. He bowed and I gave him a thumbs up before looking away. My head maid had a sore smile on her face. She wasn't happy that I made the royal physician treat a commoner but she knew she had no say in the matter and she couldn't defy my orders. The physician was still at work. The small doctor's face was still and calm, her eyes were clamped shut. A steaming bowl of water was right be
Logan's POVI remained in the bathtub for what seemed like an eternity, shocked and weakened by the revelation. At first, I wanted to deny it, I wanted to believe I was wrong. But who am I kidding? The evidence was staring me in the face.Like a dream, all that I had believed turned out to be lies. I recounted how I had tried to love Jennifer when I felt nothing for her. I put up with the irritation because I felt guilty that I took her virginity and because I felt indebted to her for saving me and nursing me through the night. I must have looked like a pathetic fool to her.My forehead heated up like I was having a fever. My skin burned and the water in the bathtub became warm and uncomfortable.Heaving a sigh, I braced up myself and stepped out of the bathtub. I patted my body dry with a towel. Of course, I did it shabbily, I was absent-minded."Damn it! Her virginity was still intact!" I rasped. She was definitely not the same girl I had slept with and she wasn't the one that took
Lian's POV"What are your findings? Father's voice boomed through the air."I haven't found out anything," Logan responded casually."What the heck have you been doing!? This is an urgent matter!? An attempt was made on the Princess' life!" Father said heatedly but Logan remained silent."Why did you visit the hospital?" Father demanded."Beta Peter told you all about it already," Logan responded grudgingly."He said you went there for frivolities, but I think there is more to it," Father said but Logan kept mute."Was it part of your investigation?" Father pressed and Logan said nothing."Why did you interrogate Renae Hart? I heard she is pregnant and you manhandled her. Given the relationship you two shared- she treated you. It's unlike you to do that," Father challenged."How did you know?" Logan responded with surprise but his voice trailed off almost immediately and I couldn't hear him well."I am the Alpha. I have my sources. Why did you question Renae Hart? Does she have anythi
Logan's POVI couldn't believe Lian dragged me down to the woods to show me her wolf. Well, she did well. I was able to take my mind off my worries and enjoyed some exuberance.With the full moon in its full glory and our wolf eyes shining bright. The night was as bright as day. But I knew the night was far spent as we had spent much time in the woods.Realizing we were deep in the woods, I began to lead Lian back. It was time to return home.We raced through the woods like the beast that we are. Our wolves panting and making zoomie moves.Before I knew it, we were back at the field of lilacs and I was standing in front of the cave where it all started. It was where I was saved by a woman and deceived by another.I groaned, relishing my anger. I felt deja Vu down my spine. It all felt like yesterday and I was compelled to revisit the cave- maybe I could remember some of the missing puzzles.Apart from realizing Jennifer's deception, I still needed to track down who poisoned Lian and w
Logan's POV It was dawn and I couldn't feel more grateful when the cock crowed. I had stayed up all through the night wallowing in my worries. It was a sleepless and turbulent night for me. Jennifer could have been my perfect bait. All I needed was to ask her some leading questions, but having known that she was as sly as a fox, she would catch on easily, she would realize that I had caught her. Without putting on the light in my room, I gropped into my bathroom. I spilled some water over my face, brushed my teeth, and changed out of my pajamas. I flipped on my disguise which consisted of an overflowing cloak and a hood. Securing the hood, I made my way out of the palace through the secret tunnel. Guards were securing the secret tunnel, but I knew the security wasn't always tight. I scurried around, making use of the shadows cast by the lamps. In no time I was by the tunnel. As far as my eyes could see, there were only two guards in sight and they were both asleep. Good, I mut
Renae's POVMy eyes fluttered, and reluctantly, I flipped them open. It was all dark around me and at first, I couldn't see anything. I did not know what the time was but I knew It was night and I was alive, not in the afterlife. Possibly, my eyes were still adjusting.Slowly the darkness became hazy and my sight became clear. I realized I was lying on a bed in a tiny room- it wasn't really spacious.From the bed, I scanned the room. But I felt dizzy instantly, I think I was taking things too fast. I shut my eyes and when I opened them again, I rolled them slowly as I scanned the room.It was an unfamiliar room. The tiny spark of light that illuminated the room was from an oil lamp that was almost dying out. I had woken up to meet myself in a strange room before. Although this was a different room and a different setup. Deja Vu ran down my spine and I felt exactly the same way I had felt when Jennifer captured me to tap my pheromones.Looking ahead, my head ached, but I managed to se
Logan's POV I walked briskly from the hospital to my chambers. I was deep in thought and I had almost walked past my chambers. A slight slip jolted me back to awareness, and I almost fell. Looking around, I realized I was in front of my chambers. Goodness! I ran my hand through my hair and made my way in. "Who are you!?" The guards at the gate seized me as soon as I approached the gates. One of them flipped down my hood and they all gasped. "My Prince!" They yelled in horror and released me immediately, bowing so low in fear. "Good job," I tapped two on the shoulders and strutted in. All the guards in my chambers gave me a puzzled look as they set their eyes on me. They recognized me in time because my hood was already pulled down. None of them said a word. They bowed as I made my way through. Only Tera, my personal guard, lifted up his head looking surprised. I took my bath and wore one of my princely attires. I had promised to check on the Princess this morning. It was an ex
Logan's POV"Alpha Noel. You are welcome to Princess Lian's chambers. To what honor do we owe this visit?" I asked to feel him out as he walked in in the company of two of his guards.He looked squarely into my eyes. His lips parted but he did not utter any word. A tight smile played across his lips and he looked like he was hurt by my words. Well, that was my intention.Bursting into a derisive laughter he laughed it off and signaled to the guards who followed him in. They walked out immediately."I am sorry… I just wanted to see the Princess. I should have given a prior notification. I stopped by Alpha Lucas before coming here, I also checked you at your chambers," he responded haughtily."Common, Cut the traditions, come on in. The Princess will soon join us," I said to him and he smiled as he looked around the roomI had ordered Lian to get properly dressed before Noel was led in. She was dressed in her hunter shorts and jacket."Why do I need to look good for him? I will not marr
