Prescott’s pov"Your Majesty!" Dixon called out, his voice echoing through the hall as he jogged toward me. His heavy boots clacked against the stone floor, each step bringing him closer and closer. I turned on my heel to face him, he rushed up to me and he gave a quick bow before straightening up to meet my gaze. “Yes, Dixon, did you get anything?” I questioned, my eyebrows raised as I stared at my best warrior, shaking his head negatively."Your Majesty," he blurted out, his voice deep and breathy. “I am afraid to tell you that I was unable to get anything. It doesn't seem like the rogues are staying in this pack.” Dixon uttered, carefully picking his words.“Is that it?” I asked, staring at him with my lips pressed in a thin line.“Yes, your Majesty!” he gave a bow before straightening up.“Okay, you can retire for the night, we will check out some things outside the palace, in the morning.” I proclaimed, turning on my heel and entered into the apartment that was given to me.As
Nova’s pov“Don’t fail me!” Tamsyn gave me a sly smile, her hand leaving my cheek as she dropped down to retrieve the dagger from the floor."Keep this with you," she said, a mischievous grin spreading across her face. "I'll take it back when the time comes," she added, her eyes sparkling with amusement. I swallowed hard, my hand trembling as I took the dagger from her. I gazed at the blade, the sharpness of it making my heart race. I wasn't sure if I could handle such a responsibility, but I nodded nonetheless. Unable to utter a word."We will kill him," she said, her voice full of determination. "You will be free of him, and I will avenge the death of my mate." With that, she turned and left the room, her footsteps echoing in the empty hallway. I stood frozen in place, the full weight of her words sinking in. Could I really do what she was asking? Was I capable of taking a life, even for the sake of revenge? My thoughts were a jumbled mess, and I didn't know what to do.My hands s
Prescott’s povWaking up in Blue Moon pack was a different experience than waking up at the royal villa. I was used to the quiet stillness of the morning at the royal villa, and here, I was waking up by the melodic jingling of the bell that chimed from across the palace buildings.The sound was a little loud, but It was a soothing sound, one that brought a sense of calm to my mind. The stillness of the morning was replaced by the gentle bustle of palace members going about their daily business. With a groan, I rolled out of bed and stood up, stretching out the kinks in my body. I slid my feet into a pair of soft footwear that was laid down on the floor, their warmth was a comforting sensation on my cold toes. I took a deep breath and exhaled, trying to shake off the last remnants of sleep. I knew I had a lot to do today, but for a moment, I allowed myself to linger in the peace of the early morning before I decided to go have my mouthwash.Striding towards the bathroom, I entered and
Nova’s povAfter the awkward breakfast with the Lycan King. I returned to my room, sitting on the edge of my soft bed with a book in my hands, a knock came on the door and I moved my gaze off the book.“Yes, who's that?” I asked, my brows raised as I stared at the door, watching it creep open with a head popping inside.“Princess?” the voice called before entering my room fully. “Hey,” I smiled, recollecting she was one of the maids from the dining room earlier. “Sorry for yelling at you. I wasn't in my right sense at that time.” I uttered, giving her an apologetic look.“That’s not a problem, Princess.” she let out a nervous smile, fondling her fingers.“Why are you here?” I asked, closing the book in my hands before dropping it beside me on the bed.She seemed to have collected herself as I asked that question, she adjusted her posture and inhaled before speaking.“His Majesty, the King had asked me to call for you. He is currently at the front of the building, waiting in the car th
Prescott's povWe were standing in front of a tall shelf, I stood behind Nova with my arms crossed while she ransacked through the shelf, checking out some books in the row.I tapped my foot on the floor, checking out the bustling activities of the store with the corner of my eyes. Suddenly, my eyes landed on a guy in a black jacket, suspiciously moving into the store.I quietly moved away from Nova, not wanting to pull her attention while I strolled towards where the guy was standing.That was my purpose in coming to town, to catch any suspicious person. The rogues can be anyone and there was no way you would know if you didn't check out for their signature tattoo of blue wolf.I briskly walked to where the guy was standing seconds ago, he was no longer there. I moved my gaze towards the other side to see him entering a door that I assumed to be the restroom.I quietly trailed behind him, not wanting to raise a false alarm. The guy walked through the hallway and paused in front of a
Nova’s pov“My Queen?” Prescott called, stretching forth his hand that was covered in blood, stretching it out for me to take.I looked away from his outstretched hand, my gaze falling to the floor at my feet. There, I was met with a sight even worse than the one before, the head of the man he had just killed, staring up at me with glassy, unseeing eyes. I felt bile rise in my throat, my stomach churning at the gruesome sight. The smell of his blood filled my nostrils, and I had to fight to keep from retching.I turned my gaze away, unable to bear the horror of what I had seen. My gaze landed on Prescott, who was smiling at me with an infuriating receptive expression. His hand was still outstretched, urging me with his eyes to take his hand.“Don't you dare offer me your blood-soaked hand!” I growled, my eyes blazing with fury. Tears welled up in my eyes as I stared at the hand outstretched towards me.Prescott stumbled back, his mouth agape and his eyes wide with bewilderment. He se
Nova’s povWalking to our building with a huge smile on my face, I cleared my throat as I walked past a set of maids who stared at me with a knowing smile on their faces. I held my head high and stepped into our living room, I met Mom in the living room, sitting on a one-seater couch, staring into space with her back to me.“Mom…” I called, moving towards her with my heels clicking on the floor.“Novalie dear,” she jolted out of her thought upon hearing me call out to her, she stood up from the couch and grabbed a file from the centre table.“You okay, mom?” I questioned, staring from her to the file in her hands, with my eyebrows raised.Mom smiled, flashing me her white sets of teeth. “I have almost forgotten about the file your father asked me to deliver to his office,” she mumbled, running her gaze on my body. As if she was seeing a new version of me.“You don't look so good. What happened? Didn't you visit the town with his Majesty?” she asked, running her eyes on my body once ag
Prescott’s pov“Where should I take you to, your Majesty?” the royal driver asked, staring at me through the rear-view mirror.I bored my gaze to the glass window, watching Nova enter their building with her long black hair slapping her back as she walks.“Hold on, let me get across to the warriors.” I groaned, taking my gaze off the Alpha’s building as I relaxed back into the seat.“Dixon, where are the others?” I asked my best warrior as soon as I got him linked to the mind link.I heard the sound of the rustling of legs before he spoke up. “Everyone of them is here,” he uttered, his voice was fruity and I nodded my head, even though he could not see me.“Do you get anything?” I questioned, moving my hand to my face, watching the dried blood in my palm, I hissed and brought down my hand from my face.“Yes. We have something to show to Your Majesty, and perhaps, we may also have some questions for the Alpha as well,” he explained, I moved on the seat, my hand hitting a soft object on
