I could feel someone desperately trying to reach me through the mind link so I gave them access. There is a limit to which the mind link travels but as the alpha prince, my mind link could travel ten times farther than a normal werewolf would.
“Ryder, there has been an attack on our guys guarding the scene where the luna was found dead days ago,” Louis informs me through mind link.
I cursed “Where are you Louis? And what is the situation like?” I asked him.
“I am headed there right now, there was a breech in our communication. I will let you know how things turn out when I get there. It’s probably better you stay back…”
“I’m coming. In the mean time, get as many warriors as you can within the western wolves. Leave Eclipse warriors out of it. I’m still unsure as to how many of them we can trust. This is majorly their handiwork,” I instruct, cutting
TIANA’S POVI didn’t get to see Elsie all through the day because I couldn’t leave the house and I was beginning to get worried. The Elsie I know would have found a way to reach out to me by now. She liked being mischievous and occasionally enjoyed doing things that a normal princess wouldn’t do, which is why she had a disguise to sneak out of the palace in the first place.Layla stayed with me for the most part seeing she didn’t have anything to do and we enjoyed each other’s company. She even suggested we did some school work together which is totally unlike her. My private tutor took us on some lessons and kept us busy too.When it was lights out, she had to leave, and once again, I find myself in the gigantic room of the alpha prince, alone and in deep thoughts- thoughts of him. I miss him a lot, and I chose to sleep on his part of the bed tonight, with his shirt on. It gave
My hands were shaky when I was done dressing. I stood in the mirror, trying to give myself a little pep talk but nothing seemed to be working. I know I didn’t need the king to arrive at the table before me, that would be disrespectful, and I was hoping to make a good second impression since our first encounter didn’t go too well.I hooked my earring and stepped out. Thomas was already waiting at the door to escort me, so we made our way to the royal castle, my heart banging in my chest as we drew closer.I wasn’t going to let Thomas or any other person see how scared I was so I kept my chin up until we got to the dining table. I still remember the last time I was here and how much things have changed in such a such time, like I had a wolf now that I could dialogue with.I almost squealed in excitement when I saw Elsie at the table seated next to a gentleman. I rushed to hug her and she was equally as excited to see me.“Come sit he
RYDER’S POV I slammed my fists into the wall in anger as I stared down at the scape goats that were chained in the warehouse. It was early in the morning, we spent the whole night battling those bloody rogues but I didn’t feel tired at all. I wanted answers. One of them had killed himself already before we got to the warehouse. I’m still unaware of how he got a knife and ended his life, and I was mad at those that were supposed to guard them for allowing something like that slip right through their fingers. I picked up the gang leader by his collar and lifted him up with my left hand, his legs trembling underneath him and his lips quivering with large droplets of sweat running down his face. “Who the fuck sent you and what is your aim, you moron,” I questioned him for the second time but his quivering lips would not let him form a single word, so I smashed my fists into his face real hard, and blood tri
I paced the lengths of the warehouse, throwing my fists into walls occasionally and cursing. I have learnt a lot in the past few hours than I have learnt in almost two years since I have been on this case.All these killings was connected to the death of Jayce walker, whose killer we are still unsure of, but without a doubt, the killings within the western wolves was a movement that the alpha of Eclipse pack started in other to get justice for the death of his son and find out who was behind his death. He got help from the rogue king who would do anything to cause harm to werewolves and their packs, hence the involvement of magic.It made sense how Jordan had been able to get his hands on the potion he intended to use to kill me. The moron should have known that mere magic couldn’t take down the alpha prince, but he is just as naïve and clueless as his father who thinks killing innocent alpha’s was the right move to take to avenge the death of his son.
TIANA’S POV “Stop following me,” I screamed at Thomas. It wasn’t my imagination, he flinched, but that didn’t stop him. “You must return back to Prince Ryder’s room-” he was saying, but I didn’t let him finish. “I know that, and I am not running, so can you just quit following me?” I boomed. “I still like my head on my neck. Prince Ryder would not hesitate to separate the two if he found out that I left you on your own,” he complained. I grit my teeth in anger. I haven’t returned back to Ryder’s house since I left the king’s palace, because I wanted to be far away from anything that reminded me of him, and it was so hard to get rid of Thomas but I desperately want to go on a run. My wolf wanted out of this body, it was the only thing that could calm me down or make me feel a little bit better, but a part of me knew that if I shifted, Thomas’s wolf would be right behind mine and I didn’t wa
RYDER’S POVOnly a fool would play pranks with the most powerful werewolf on earth and think he would go free, and Leo just proved how foolish he is. Going the extra mile to get the most powerful spell that could turn him into that beast was a waste of time, and summoning all those rogues didn’t do him any good either. I spat at his lifeless body before climbing into my vehicle to begin our journey back to the place.I’m exhausted, and still in a pretty bad mood because no one had a clue where the stupid Simeon was. He couldn’t have gotten so far, and it wouldn’t be long before I find him, I know. Still, I was mad that those I put in charge had let him out of their sight. Morons. Seems like these fucking warriors cannot do anything right these days.If Leo had not been so foolish to try and conquer me, he would have been on the run just like his brother. So, his aim for killing Jayce was because he thought the alpha se
TIANA’S POVI definitely felt better after that run, but my mind was still clogged with so many questions about how Adeline died, thus making it difficult for me to fall asleep. I don’t feel that fear of my mate being in danger anymore like I had felt earlier in the day, and I was relieved mostly.It was still quite early in the evening, and even though the king said I should make a habit of having my meals at the royal table, I don’t think I would be doing that again. I walked out on him, and that was disrespect on my path, but certainly he didn’t think I would sit back and take all of that, did he?I never thought of the possibility of Ryder hurting me, but after my recent findings, I find myself doubting if he would put an end to my life if he had to. I tried to force myself to sleep, especially because I didn’t get much sleep the night before, but it wouldn’t come, and I woul
RYDER’S POVI can’t tell her that I was on the look out for her father yet, at least not until I find him and hear his own side of the story, just so I don’t get her hopes up. I felt how happy she was knowing the Hughes were safe, and I would do anything to make her happy now, including telling her the truth about Adeline, and whatever happens to Eclipse pack from here was totally up to her. She deserved that, especially after all she had gone through while she was there.After I told her all she needed to know about her former pack and the death of Jayce Walker, I needed to see Elsie. So, I sent a mind link to her to meet me in my office at the royal castle. I hate to leave my mate but I needed to address some issues with Elsie, and I needed to do that now.Elsie is stubborn and headstrong like our mother, and it was hard to forgive her for what she did. She knows all I had to deal with in my past relationship, y
