McKenna's POVI cannot believe that I may see my mate after so long. It was almost as if none of this was real. It's been nearly a year I had assumed. Thanks to Violet, we know this is a blind spot for the Kingdom of Koda."Are you nervous? Lincoln asked disturbing my revelation. "Is it that obvious, my lord?" I asked. "A little," he chuckled. "How do I look?" I asked twirling around in a dress I lifted from our latest excursions with the rich. "Perfect," he mumbled. "I feel like something is missing. I just want our reunion to be perfect," I nervously said fumbling with my with my hair. "I think I found it," Lincoln replied placing small flowers around the crown of my head the moment my mate came into view.My heart swelled with joy just as my eyes filled with tears. I rushed over to him without another thought calling out for him."Jubilee!" I cried out. "Mate," he replied biting his bottom lip in happiness but frustration. "Carol?" Gamma Felius asked not believing his eyes. "FELIUS
Alpha King Lincoln's POV "My gift, it's more vivid because my grandmother is no longer with us in this life! She knew...she knew she was going to die here. That is an awful burden. I do not deserve her gift. It is not a gift at all. It's a torturous curse! I would give it all back, goddess!" Swan cried aloud. I looked over at McKenna as a reflex realizing she had been frozen in place the moment she touched Gertrude. Whatever she saw upset her. McKenna sprinted deeper into the forest with Jubilee hot on her heels. I had to fight the urge to follow after. "She will be okay," Katie said knowingly. "I wasn't..." I started to lie but she threw me a "don't try to deny it" look. "I know it's hard to see her happy with her mate when you feel so deeply for her but you must. Let her have the happiness she deserves, your grace," Katie said walking to join the others. I was losing my mind. After pacing the fields for what felt to be an eternity, I heard the voices of my angels coming toward me
Octavia's POV "Look who's here to greet us," Jamela scoffed. "She's so tiring," I replied rolling my eyes. "I could totally drop something in her drink to keep her in the outhouse," Jamela offered. "Please," I playfully joked. Our cart pulled in the front of the pack dwelling. I acted as if I didn't see Taysia. Jamela grabbed our satchels before leaving my side. "Nice of you to return," Taysia said sashaying down the front entrance of the pack dwelling. "You're still here?" I asked holding back my laughter. "You won't be for long," she scoffed. "What's your deal? Is it Lex you desire? Do you want to take my place as his betrothed?" I asked. "It is Lex who wishes to rid himself of you. If you weren't so damned disobedient maybe we could have made this work," she threatened. "Taysia, if you come one step closer to me I will use excessive force with the one thing that annoys me the most, your face," I growled. She looked to have taken my warning serious, but it didn't stop her from t
Oliver's POVThree months later...As the days of training trudged along, so did the connection I once felt to my mate. I think the distance I had from her was starting to weaken our bond now that we've met. It was still there and the pain of a delayed rejection was still present."I'm so proud of you two! My knight of Tirado," Alizabeth smiled lovingly at Marlo. "Thanks for coming," he replied cheekily. "I've missed you," she whimpered. "I think we should go somewhere," Marlo growled. "I've got us a room at the Inn," Alizabeth said seductively.I do not know what else was said because I bolted. There was no way I wanted to see how their mating played out. I had other pressing concerns like how I planned to punish Karly, William, and Daphne's adoptive mother. They're criminals who deserved to hang for selling innocent she-wolves to rogues for the Goddess only knows."Hey," a familiar voice from behind said to me. "Jamela?" I asked in confusion. "Yes, Tavi thought it would a good idea
Violet's POVI was bed-ridden after returning from secretly seeing my father. To say I was highly miserable would be an understatement."How are you feeling, my love?" Alpha Killian asked. "Awful," I sulked hugging my feather pillow. "The physician says it won't be long. It could be any moment now," he excitedly said caressing my arm. "I need to talk to you," I said turning to face him.My father, Alpha King Lincoln advised me to speak with my mate about waiting to grow our family. I just hoped he took it okay."Sure," he said distracted by something in his satchel. "Can we wait before we have more pups? I would love..." I started to say before he cut me off. "No," he dryly said and walked out.Is he being serious? Was he even talking to me? I was left confused and with no answer to my question, I think...."My lady, did you send for us?" One of my handmaidens, Felecia asked trailed by Juniper and Clara. "Yes, I felt a bit lonely. Can you all keep me company until my mother, the Queen
Queen Antionette's POVA few months ago I witnessed my first grand pup's birth. I found myself peering at the she-wolf I had become now. There was still no sign of frown lines or age. I actually looked happy for a change."Mother! my eldest son, Lawrence called out. "Don't you ever barge into my quarters again unannounced. I could have been inappropriately dressed," I reminded him. "My apologies, mother. Why have you denied Lance's departure to the kingdom of Valaris?" He asked peturbed. "Do I need to remind you of your place? Lance is your little brother and my son. What has gotten into you lately?" I asked taken back by his behavior. "Nothing is wrong with me. You are making me look weak! He must leave or I'll look like I cannot control my own family!" He replied. "It's because you don't! Have you gone ill in the head?" I asked. "My nineteenth birth year has come and gone but my coronation has not happened. With the blood moon approaching, I had hoped that I would be the one to lead
Lawrence's POVAfter my mother informed me of everything Ruby had done to ny twin sister, I thought I would give her a taste of her own medicine. I had her cleaned up and fed. I had her brought up to the west wing, which was usually abandoned. I wasn't worried about anyone missing her. The guards told me Beta Vincent hadn't been allowed to visit."Prince Lawrence! Thank you for helping me. Your mother wanted me starved when I was only doing what any mother would do for her children," Ruby reasoned becoming rather comfortable.I was enraged checking out her level of "I don't give a shit" attitude."You like to fuck wolves that are not your mate do ya? Seems like you and your mate have that in common don't take?" I rhetorically asked removing my belt. "Lawrence, what are you doing?" She asked standing to her feet. "Strip," I ordered her. "I most certainly will NOT! You are a only a pup!" She scoffed. "I'm only seven years behind Alpha Killian. It seems you liked his touch. I bet you're
