DARIAN'S POV "Elva… Demian… You guys came," I heard myself say. My heart melted at their presence and I could feel the hope for an escape. "I can tell the intent of a man by his heartbeat," Selena's father suddenly said. He stood up from his throne and headed toward Elva and Demian. "Welcome to my kingdom, princess of the Haelstrom kingdom," he said to Elva, "and you the juvenile Alpha king." "Thank you," Elva said. But it felt like she had forced those words out like a foreign object in her stomach. Suddenly, Elva's feet began to quake and her face squeezed up. She fell to the floor immediately and Demian rushed to her. "Oh, it seems we've met before," Selena's father said to Elva. "What did you do to her?" Demian rushed at Selena's father to grab him by the collar. However, Selena's father slapped his hands off before they could reach him, and the next thing I saw was the arms getting ruptured. "Argh!" Demian screamed out in pain. "My hands... Argh!" I felt an impulse to
ELVA'S POV I could feel the warmness on my skin, and streams of water running down the slopes of my body. "What is…going on?" I muttered to myself. I was sure that I wasn't dreaming. The feel of the water on my skin was too real to be a dream. Opening my eyes, the first thing I saw was the hips of a naked female figure standing vertically beside me. I traced my eyes from the hips, all the way to the face of the person, and then stopped. "What are you doing to me?" I squeaked, drawing back when I met the face. She was naked and I was naked as well, and I hoped it wasn't what I was thinking. However, I turned and noticed three other ladies by my other side. "What's happening here?" I asked, ignoring how beautiful they looked and how identical all their faces were. "We're preparing you for the king," the first among them replied me. "For what?" I stood up immediately. "It's the king's order," she answered, "please, lay back and let us finish with what we are doing." "Don't yo
DARIAN'S POV Demian, Elva, and I had been seated at the dining table for almost twenty minutes before King Albert finally returned. "I apologize for the delay," he said as he walked in. He glanced at us, and when he didn't see Selena, he turned around to the Devas. "Where's my daughter?" "She's still making up," answered one of the Devas. "Should I go and fetch her?" "Do not worry," replied King Albert, "she's already coming out." There were four Devas in the dining room there with us, standing. Four other Devas came descending the stairs with trays of steaming food in their arms. The aroma of the dishes filled the air as they served them before us. There was a tray of baked beans, a bowl of grilled chicken laps, a bowl of cauliflower salad, four jugs of wine, and many more. It was a banquet before our eyes. I suddenly remembered the soldiers and turned to confront King Albert, "What did you do to the soldiers?" "The soldiers? Ah… don't worry about them. They were only revo
ELVA'S POV My eyes widened when I saw Darian and Selena holding hands and descending the stairs. I cringed at first, but told myself, "It's alright, Elva. You should understand that he's just playing along." "Isn't that beautiful?" King Albert said, his gaze absorbed by the two who were descending the stairs. The dining table had six seats. Darian came behind me and whispered to me to stand up. As I stood, he took my seat and pushed it slightly to make space for Elva's seat which originally was beside her father's. Now, her seat stood between mine and Darian's. With a wry smile on her face, she took a seat and clung closer to Darian. "You two look perfect for each other," said King Albert. My intestines twisted at the smile that came up on Selena's face as her father complimented her and Darian. Shame on her! "Guess what, Dad? We kissed in the room just before coming out," she divulged. I almost threw up a chunk of vegetable I had in my mouth on hearing that. I gripped my for
ELVA’S POV My lips quaked as I tried to find the words to tell Demian to take it easy on me. His meat was too big, and he still thrust hard upon that. “Take it easy,” I begged. The mixture of pleasure and pain was insane, and that wasn’t what I signed up for. “I’m guessing my brother has never fucked you this way,” he said, adding more force to his thrust as he sent a powerful one that made my waist jerk suddenly. I pulled myself out of his grip on my waist and turned around immediately, staring at him with utter disbelief. “Do you want to kill me?” I asked him, panting along with him. But his pants weren’t a sign of tiredness. He wanted to finish me right there and then. “I’m not there yet,” his voice was coarse, “let’s finish up, Elva.” “No, not if you’re going to continue like this,” I said to him, scooting over to where he had dropped my underwear. “I can’t take it, please.” “Aye. Alright, I’ll be gentle with you,” he promised. If only he could feel how hot I felt at the
Elva's POV"Tell me you have been fucking yourself, Elva," Darian suddenly stormed into the room and yanked the curtain of the bathroom open."What?" I quickly grabbed my towel and wrapped it across my chest. "What's wrong with you?""I said, tell me that you've been fucking yourself, Elva!" He roared."Dude, you shouldn't just barge into a lady's bathroom and embarrass her that way," Demian stood up from the bed.Darian only flashed a one-second gaze at him before returning back to me."Explain, Elva," he nodded at his younger brother, "why is he here? The vacant store room…your sweat…his sweat… the smell of your secretion… Explain it all right now."“I…”“Nothing happened between us, unless you want something to happen,” Demian said, “you’re tripping over nothing.”“It’s just like he said, Darian, nothing happened between us,” my voie cracked. I wasn’t a good liar. Anyone would easily tell that I wasn’t speaking the truth.Darian inched closer to me and started to sniff my body all
ELVA'S POV My heartbeat thudded in my ears like the gallop of an excited horse as I woke up in the middle of the night. The silence of the whole environment enveloped me as I looked out through the window. But there was only one sound persistent by that time of the night. Darian and Selena were at it again. I had just dreamt of them getting wedded and that made me wake up sweating all over. I had no one to talk to. No one to explain my feelings to. No one to tell about the dangers in my heart. Demian was only interested in getting physical with me. He clearly showed no sign of concern when what we did broke my relationship with his brother. And if I tried telling my wolf, he wouldn't be sympathetic to me. He'd blame me for starting it with Demian. "Maybe he has fallen in love with Selena," I muttered to myself, sighing as I laid my head back on the bed. Tears trickled from the side of my eyes, staining my pillow immediately. "No," I sniffed back, "it's not worth it." I wiped m
DARIAN'S POV "Honey, you're having a nightmare again," I heard Selena's voice faintly before I felt her touch on my skin. "Wake up," she tapped me, "wake up." I grumbled and rolled over on my back. "Look how you're sweating," she panicked, handing a towel over to me, "what's happening." "Nothing's wrong," I said to her, "if there's something wrong, it could be the weather." "It's night, and it's cold. There's no reason you should be sweating now," she suggested. She touched my head and asked, "Are you running a fever?" "No, Selena," I said, gently bringing her hand down and sitting up, "it hasn't been up to three hours since we slept. And we had just had sex before sleeping, so I don't expect myself to be in the best state of health." For the past few days, Selena had made it a rule that we both had sex before sleeping at night and I had been playing along with that. But it seemed that it had made me develop a night sickness because it'd usually disappear during the day. "Ar
