Maverick POVStaring at the angel lying beside me with her hair sprawled all over her face, I caressed the little strands covering her face. A soft yawn escaped her pouty mouth with her lashes fluttering slowly.I smiled inwardly at the beautiful sight before me. It was a sight I cannot stop cherishing. Brynlee was my very source of happiness and for days I have been very happy.But it was time to face reality. There were so many things that I needed to attend to as soon as possible. I needed to sort the warriors and also go for several meetings with the kings under me. I needed to catch up on information about what happened to me some days back.I wanted to know what made me like that on that night I fought with the rogues. There was surely an explanation for all of this."Mave, are you okay?" Her soft voice dug into my thoughts as her eyes flickered slowly, opening with a stare directed at me."Yes, buttercup. You can sleep more. I need to go for a meeting with the elders," I said,
Brynlee povA little smile built up while I washed my hair, I went in deep into the roots with the shampoo.I really love the fact that I get to train with Ellen and we can actually bond that way. I gulped as I walked out of the bathroom. I went on to get my robe and I prepared for the training session. I prepped out the sets that she was to do for today, it included the warm ups and all the other activities and exercises that she would be doing. Alongside the fact that she had to be consistent.This might be a long day after all but I am prepared. When Maverick and I left the house, I headed straight to Ellen’s house. I had spent exactly one hour in all that I prepared, except the fact that I hadn’t had breakfast yet. I wasn’t going to prepare anything or waste time, this is a surprise training session so, I need to go with a motive- to eat. “Is anyone home?” I knocked on the door after I had rung the bell, the fear that they might be asleep held on to me like a baby to his mother.
Maverick PovI watched keenly at the conference door, watching as the door knob turned downwards and pushed open. My eyes opened at the very moment when I saw him, the same man I had thought of few minutes before the conference had started. It was Loren. He had just disappeared on his own kind of adventure, and this had happened for so many days. I thought of his safety and also his well being. And here he was, walking, bouncing with shoulders high and his face beaming with a more brilliant smile.His hands were heavy, grasping hold the hand of this light skinned lady who had this unique shape, and smooth skin exposed through the short dress she had on her body.She walked gently yet there was hidden curiosity in her eyes. She looked not one bit afraid of being in our Kingdom. She walked, one leg placed before the other as she took a step, her heels making some resounding noise as the heels of her shoes collided against the ground.She swung her short bright hair backwards, moving h
Maverick POV A human mate... Can she satisfy Loren? Those were my thoughts as I stared at the woman before me. But her eyes were still glued to Loren and her gaze gave off the air of a snob. Was there a kind of a riff between the two people. It was a certain kind of look, a saucy one. Her eye balls moved up towards the crown of his head and down towards his shoes as if she was trying to piss him off. I held back my grin unsuccessfully and received a glare instead from my beta.I just shrugged, pointing how it wasn't my fault. I bet she didn't notice the slight interaction between Loren and I because she turned back at me and giggled with a plastic smile on her face. Did I fail to add that she looked more like a drama queen? "Well, I do hope he does what is right! Loren, please can you give her a quick tour round the pack and make her comfortable before you return to the conference room? There's a meeting really important which you have to be part of!" I said again with a slight sm
Maverick's POVI was angered within, irate over the things I had seen. I was about to yell on them, grab the neck of one of them and twist it backwards, but just when I wanted to do so, something distracted me.It was a kind of growl, loud to the extent that it grabbed the attention of everyone. It could be heard from afar, but it's strength was really terrifying. I watched as Brynlee already began to shiver within, her eyes looking upwards and almost becoming watery.Ellen had already pushed Brynlee behind her, standing with her sword and facing the direction which seemed like the most obvious place for the arrival of the sound."Ellen.!" I mindlinked her again. "Yes, Your Majesty!" She responded immediately, energetic and a bit too ready to face what was coming."Look after Brynlee!" I said to her as I disconnected from the mindlink and walked forward to some extent.Loren was not yet present in the place I had asked him to be in, even after I had stressed the fact that I didn't wa
Loren's POVThe heavens knew that this beauty was already messing with my mind. With the way she walked, the way she talked and giggled, and the smart responses she gave out to me, I was overwhelmed by this lady and how she was so free.She look a little like the woman I met that night. Bold, luscious and every inch the daring type. Nevertheless, there was something different too when she encountered my world. I expected her not like Brynlee. My mind hovered around the fact that she might likely be someone against new happenings. But that was literally the opposite of what happened. I could see the way she was so excited about the things she saw, and it caused my heart to overflow with joy. Joy of the fact that it was likely she would accept me for who I am.The monster they termed us to be. I thought of her as being so smart and free spirited, someone willing of having to stir up a great conversation between two people. She was so easygoing which I noticed the very first day we met
Loren's POVWith my eyes filled with burning desire to wreck whoever might be responsible, I looked around yet helplessness hit me like a plaque. There was no fucking way I could catch the person responsible, however I tried.My only regret was that I didn't get to teach the bastard who obeyed the command of coming to threaten me or rather my naive mate."Strengthen your defences, guard the entire place. You can finally see what we're up against and everyone needs to be alert!" I heard Maverick say to the guards who came along with him.This was just too much but deep down, something was certain. It wasn't a rogue attack, this was barely planned and it was activated by the someone close. An obvious traitor.This kingdom was slowly being attacked by its own people. He needed to keep his mate safe and yet there was only one solution to it all. Would Tamara accept after everything she saw?I was standing still with my hands placed on my waist, and my heart squeezing inside of me. It was
Maverick's POVThose fucking guards should know better than try to get close to Brynlee or even have lecherous thoughts about her. I allowed her to train doesn't mean she was open to their stupid eyes!I made a mental note to transfer them to my private training ground to prevent these sorts of eyesores on my mate's body. Still, the fire raging in my heart wasn't extinguished. I wanted to rip them apart, limb by limb even if they were my warriors.Yes, they were my warriors... That's their saving grace. But my killing thoughts were interrupted by a sound that sounded familiar to me. It was a loud growl I heard, far the distance I stood. A growl I could recognize any day. It was followed by another piercing sound that shows an attack. "Get ready men..! Get every man ready..!" I yelled as I took the lead time run towards where I suspected the source of the sound. Or rather, towards my best friend and his newly found mate. What the hell was happening in my kingdom? Why haven't there b
