Again Prince Harad's POVHerod and Walter stormed into the sitting room like two roaring lions. Their faces don't bode well. When they see Shiri, who is almost sitting on my lap, they walk towards her menacingly. “Did you organize all of this, woman?” my brother growled in her face. “We were in the VIP room, how did the photographers know exactly where to be?”As I cast my gaze backward, I see the other two sisters guiltily watching from a distance, he has probably also scolded them. There has to be some foul play involved in all of this. Shiri rises confidently and fearlessly locks her gaze with Walter's.“Chief Warrior, may I remind you that the Princes are persons of high public interest and their mere presence turns heads wherever they go?” she reasoned. “The possibilities of how the press found out about them are open. As you'll recall, we came from a pub accessible to the general public. And When we entered this mall, we could have
Alpha Female Ciciane’s POVAs we continue on our way, all concerns or anxieties that have been preoccupying us simply dissipate into nothingness.We speed past dense forests and deserted neighborhoods, while the invigorating scent of fresh air fills my lungs. This trip is fun; I forbid myself from thinking about that gorgeous guy I left back in Human Town. Instead, I focus on enjoying every moment of this exciting and adventurous journey."Cissy, let's go for a run in the next nature park we come across," Xanne suggested cheerfully. "We haven't allowed our wolves to have a leisurely run for quite some time now, not since we had to flee from Crescent Moon."That seems like a fantastic idea! Without any hesitation, I firmly press my foot down further onto the accelerator.Era is absolutely ecstatic about the prospect of spending time in nature again, instead of being constantly confined in my mind. A mere ten minutes later, we exit once more and undress. In an instant,
Alpha Female Ciciane's POV Still I stand still as loneliness slowly washes over me. The further Xanne walks away, the deeper this feeling becomes. I cannot live without my best friend. With my Alpha genes, I can easily keep myself safe at this age, but Xanna is an integral part of me. It feels like we share a special bond, it's beyond mere survival instinct for me. I snap out of my apathy and chase after her, terrified at the thought of losing her.She has disappeared among the tall trees in her human form. Perhaps she is so angry that she forgot to shift, or maybe she does not plan on traveling with me any further. "Xanne, Xanne, wait!" I shouted at the top of my lungs. When I arrived at the dense forest and still didn't see her anywhere, I was at my wit's end. I had to think of something extraordinary that could soften her heart and help to forget
Still Alpha Female Ciciane's POVWe're cruising down the road in high spirits.The once fraught atmosphere between us has completely cleared up, we are the best friends again as before.That is something I really admire about Xanna, her given word stands, when she indicates that she has forgiven me, she is completely done with the issue we argued about. I couldn't have a more wonderful friend! “Cissy, I'm so hungry. We've missed breakfast, went swimming and it's now almost lunchtime. My stomach is grumbling,” she suddenly complained. “According to the online map, there should be a pit stop not far from here where we can have Italian. Right now, I can eat an extra large Pizza all by myself with ease." She's right, I can hear the rumblings coming from my hungry belly as well.So we keep a close eye on the billboards along the road and after driving for a few kilometers, a gas station with an attached restaurant comes into view. After pull
Again Alpha Female Ciciane's POV As we settled into the car, I noticed a change in Xanne's mood. There was a notable drop in her usual cheerfulness. No matter how craftily she tries to conceal it, I know her too well not to notice.It's definitely about that man in the car whom she suspects to be her mate. But in this case, I am resolute and will not capitulate, we are too close to our goal and can't afford any delay at this point. Only one more day and then we will be free to do whatever we desire. Then she can take her time to explore her relationship with the man, as long as it doesn't affect me in any way.As we approach our eighteenth birthday, Xanne's hormones are raging like wildfire, she really needs to slow down and understand that we can never have two mates. The stranger might have been a member of our pack who miraculously survived the catastrophe of Eclipse Howlers. Time will tell, but not now. W
Prince Harad's POVWith purposeful strides, I exit the apartment and proceed towards the restaurantEntering through the rear entrance, I make my way to Stan's office. Herod has an agreement with this man and yet he didn't inform us about their departure.I briefly knock and step inside without waiting for his permission.“Sir, what can I do for you?” Stan asked with a slightly suspicious look on his face.He probably senses that I'm not in the best of moods, but avoids being overwhelmed by it. “The ladies you rented the apartment to, have disappeared,” I declared tightly. “Do you know where they are?” His eyes light up and he shakes his head.“Yes, they left,” he agreed. “They used to tell me that they had a special task to fulfill but lacked the funds to go on it yet. It's likely that fortune smiled upon them eventually." “Fortune smiled upon them? What do you mean?" I demanded to know.“They saved their money and lived on
Prince Harad's POV Still“The Alpha Females paid them to leave this town, to abandon us. I wonder how much we were worth.”As Herod speaks, the unmistakable disappointment and pain are audible in his voice. All kinds of emotions flood across his face, reflecting my own feelings of betrayal. He turns away in an effort to conceal from our view that he is having a hard time maintaining composure.This discovery is difficult to digest, all along we were in love with our own mates. While I had every intention of keeping Cissy by my side, Herod, on the contrary, was willing to sacrifice Xanna for an unknown mate. All works out in my favor, now Cissy and my mate are one and the same person. With a tumultuous rage brewing within me, I stand behind Herod."Who do you think you are to judge her?" I snarled. "Wasn't it you who constantly rejected Xanna? She was putting all of her effort into this relationship with you. If only you had been a little more lenient, she might h
Again Prince Harad's POV There were several telltale signs that gave us a strong indication Cissy and Xanne were the women we had been searching for. It was their appearance, particularly the eye-catching color of their hair and also their small stature, that should have alerted as well as the swift way in which they captured Herod's and my hearts. Prior to meeting this woman, I had only pursued short-lived affairs founded solely on superficial attraction but with her, I experienced an unparalleled intensity and all-encompassing love. With Cissy, I experienced a complex range of emotions that ultimately could only point to one thing, I was madly in love with her.I yearn to keep her near me and provide for her needs, cherishing the sound of her voice and feeling the touch of her skin. Those feelings were all fresh, if I had paid more attention to it, I could at least have had a good guess. As for Xan, that wolf of mine was
