She closed her eyes and was no longer speaking, and her breathing was shallow now."Alix, Alix!" I screamed, but she was not answering. She was only breathing slowly.I felt my wolf almost taking over, but I kept trying to push it back because I knew that letting him take control was not a good idea. it would destroy everything."Set me free!" It screamed in the back of my mind, but I shook my head.The more I tried to resist it, the more it pushed me. I growled so loudly that the whole pack must be awake.I jacked her up carefully, then was about to start running when Kingsley came out and he saw Alix lying limply in my hand."What is wrong with her?"I ignored him and started running to the hospital. I heard them following me, but I was focused on reaching the hospital.Immediately I reached, it I pushed the door open and headed inside. The doctors, nurses, and healers rushed after me.They directed me to the room; they wanted me to go in, then I put her on the bed, and I held the h
When I reached the border, I spotted Zack and a woman whose face was covered with a cloak. They were standing with the guards, and none of them were speaking because Father told the guards not to harm them or say anything to them; instead, they should be kept there till I arrived.When Zack saw me, he made to come to me, but the guards held his hand and tried to draw him back."Let him go now," I commanded."Get your mate too," I said to him.He nodded, then went back to her. He placed his hand on her back and brought her forward."Sorry to disturb you, but we were sleeping when my mate and her mother saw your mate. My sister was sitting on the stage at some kind of gathering. She saw someone, then her eyes widened, and she took a poisoned drink that was kept on the table beside her. I know you have your seer and we have no right to barge in, but Ashlyn and her mother never dreamt of something without it coming to pass. I tried to call Alix, but she was not picking up, and with the se
I laid her on the bed, then placed my hand on her chest to listen to the sound of her heartbeat. I felt very reassured after almost losing her today. But thanks to the moon goddess and Ashlyn, I got her back. I covered her in the duvet and kissed her head.I walked back outside to see the culprits. When I got there, all the servants were shaking, and they started to beg me, but I gave them a deadly look."Shut up," I said.I pointed at the three that just served food and said, "You may leave.""Thank you, thank you so much, my prince." They greeted me and ran off.I moved closer to the one that was supposed to man the kitchen but got distracted, and they were able to go inside the kitchen. She was shaking hard and was holding her mouth to stop herself from speaking."You should be careful in your duties, and if such nonsense repeats itself, then you know what will happen to your head," I said to the girl.She nodded frantically, still looking like she was about to die."Leave," I said
I held my beautiful mate's hand while we walked to my parent's house, while Kelly was on my brother's back. I tried to carry Alix too, but she did not want that.I opened the door, and we entered."Reagan, We have been waiting for you guys forever; where were you?""Sorry, they waited for me because I went to check on the cell to make sure that no one had escaped from there.""No one has escaped, right?" Father asked me."Yes, Ana and her cohorts are still there.""Good, we will deal with them later. So I can use the anger from the fact that my mate was shot to torture them," Kingsley answered, then sat down on the couch."Where is Brian? I thought you said that he would be here.""He should, but he is not here yet. He sounded off when I called him," Father answered, then picked up his phone and dialed his number."He is not picking up."I stood up and said, "Should I go check on him? Do they need for him to be here before they start?"He shook her head. "No. Give him time because fin
The door of the dungeon was opened, and I headed in. I spotted Ana sitting down in her cell, and her hands were chained to her back. She was sitting down like someone who did not understand what was happening.I opened her cell door with one of the keys, and and then led Ashlyn inside. She rushed to Ana and hit her on the chest twice, and she started vomiting a foul liquid."You thought she was working for you, but unfortunately for you, she was just playing you," Ashlyn told her, then straightened.Zack took her hand and started leading her away from the dungeon.I waited for her to finish vomiting, then she looked up and started crying."Send for Mayla, one of our female warriors," I told the guard, then I stooped in front of her."Do you want to talk, or do you want to be manhandled by Mayla?"She shook her head. "No, I will talk, please.""Good choice," I said, then stood up."Tell me everything about that plan you made with Rosette and how you guys started everything, and I mean
We landed on the open field this time, and there were more soldiers at the border than the last time we arrived, but when they saw that it was me, they moved back and whispered to each other. But I could still hear them."It is the prince," they whispered, then bowed before they started manning their duty posts again."There are more soldiers at the borders than there were last time. Maybe he is expecting us," Brian whispered."Maybe," I answered, then continued walking, but I was more alert nowWhen we got to the pack house, we were climbing the steps when Stephen opened the door, and he looked guilty."Prince Reagan, what a surprise", he said in a fake surprised tone."Indeed, Stephen," I answered without a smile."Would you like to go inside and sit before we talk about what brought you here?""I think he knows why came, so he must have something up his sleeve for asking us to come inside," Brian said through the mind link. I pretended not to hear him and head inside because Stephe
Stephen's povAs soon as Reagan left, I took out my phone and called him.He picked up after he called twice, "What is it, Stephen?""I thought you said that I was safe but he visited me this evening with a promise that he would be back. Also, why did you not tell me that Rosette has run away because I thought we were on the same team?""For the same reason, Reagan did not kill you. I knew that he would question you because they met Kim in your pack; that was why I decided to tell you nothing about her disappearance. I did not want them to sense the fact that you are lying; don't you think you were better off being told nothing?""So where is she then?""Her mission is done, Stephen. I gave her the money, sneaked her outside the place, and told her to disappear, and she did, so she is somewhere safe that even I do not know as she is done working for me. Now, I need you to do something if you are strong enough. Are you strong enough?""Strong enough for what?""I
I chased after her, and she ran toward our bedroom. I caught up with her at the door, pulled her into my arms, and started to devour her mouth, making her hold on to me for her dear life.My hands went to her skirt, and I started pulling her pants down when she managed to free her mouth and whispered,"Reagan, let's take this inside. We do not live alone. Your brother and Kelly might walk in on us.""I do not care," I said while kissing her.And when she would not let me slide her pants down her leg, I ripped them and inhaled them before putting them in my back pocket.I opened the door with one hand while the other one was squeezing her ass, and we moved inside their room.I pushed her to the wall, then pulled her top over her head, then kissed the top of her breast. Then she pulled the bra down without taking it off and started to feast on her breasts, taking them one nipple at a time. She started moaning loudly and held onto my head."F*ck, my goddess," Alix shouted.I chuckled aga
