Roger's point of view:I might underestimate that Avyanna girl, but that is a mistake that will not happen again. I made a note in my mind about the importance of getting rid of her as soon as possible.As for now, and since I am already discovered, I needed to find a way to get myself out of this mess with less amount of damage.The moment Rebel spots me, her eyes were all in disbelief. In no time, she was making her way toward me.“Shift!” She ordered, and I did as I was told.In no time, I was in my human form, totally naked. Fun fact, I knew that I might find a piece of clothes somewhere near to me, but I didn’t care to find any.I wanted my future queen to see the difference between a real man and the fake one by her side.I kind of do not regret coming here, especially after that I learned that the Brandon guy isn’t a real deal in her life.Based on the argument they had - their entire engagement is nothing but an arranged one. She won’t be that hurt when I finish his life.Well,
Avyanna's point of view: She just shouted; the end stumped away from us, is she for real? Brandon seemed not to trust Roger's wolf, neither did I. I can’t say the same for Rebel. In no time, Brandon shifted to his wolf then went for a run. It was a sign that he was in no mood, and I kind of understood him. I have to say it again, foolishness runs in the blood of our family - it’s official. I mean, how could she be that dumb to trust someone she barely knows. I’ve seen his wolf, he is stronger than what he claimed. I doubt anyone could easily escape him. Anyway, since he wanted to play that game, I’ll be glad to play it with him. I closed my eyes while thinking about Luther, the only one that still can have a bit of control over Rebel, because the last I do remember was that she's really into the role of I am a queen and no one knows better than me. I closed my eyes, then called his name the same way Austin told me to do. Part of me didn't believe that the link would work. I
Laura’s point of view: "I don't blame her for running… I would do the same if I were her!" Damien burst out with the words, and I felt angry at him.Instead of dealing with our kingdom's real issues, I'm locked here while trying to figure out where my daughters were.I have witches on my tail; vampires, and even traitorous wolves roaming around my kingdom, and instead of taking actions like true leaders, I’m here playing the role of the bad mother.Worse than that, my mate is not supportive of me. He thinks I’m quite paranoid by being overly controlling of everything.I would have gone too far to believe that he doesn't see things the way I do if he wasn't there with me through all the ups and downs I've been through.Sometimes, I wish I were just Laura, the mateless girl rejected by her alpha mate, and then my story ends.As for now, I seem to be fighting an endless war without having anyone on my side.Fun fact, when I first came to the Palace, I thought of Queen Sofia in the worst
Laura's point of view: As I was done speaking to Avyanna, I immediately made my way back to New Orleans.I made sure that only the best of our enforcers were involved in this voyage to New Orleans.I wasn't planning to involve Damien, so I didn't tell him about the call from Avyanna nor what she told me about. Same goes for Amira and Alan.I wanted to get over with the mission as fast as possible, and be sure that both my daughters are safe.Perhaps, I’m over controlling as everyone claims, but if it’s all that I need to be to make sure that my twins get a safe life - then so I’ll be.Before the jet landed, I received the urgent information I requested about the so-called alpha Roger. I can gladly state that the information is good for nothing.Yet, what reason does he have to pursue my daughters, and even wish for my death?Could it just be that he is one of those stupid greedy alphas that dreams about taking the throne?Even if he is, he should be set as an example to anyone who da
Laura's point of view: "I do reject you!" he shouted while slamming my poor body into the wall, lurking behind me. I should've expected such treatment from Alpha Blades' only son. He wouldn't accept a weak omega like me to be his mate. In fact, I'm not angry with him as much as I am angry with my fate for binding me with such a jerk. "You will tell no living soul about that... us. If you do what I told you, expect the worst from me... Now, be a good she, and accept my rejection!" The pain inside my heart grew as he rumbled every word. Yet, I wasn't the one to show weakness... I was indeed nothing but an omega, but I wasn't shy of myself. I know for sure that every pack member, including omegas, has their impact on the pack. My father taught me to be proud of myself and never back off from any battle, even when it’s painful as hell. "I'm Laura Jonathan," I spoke proudly. "Nothing more than an omega... I gladly accept your rejection. In fact, I would have been the one rejecting yo
Laura's point of view:The music was loud, and the familiar disgusting scent of sweaty humans mixed with alcohol made me feel sick.I would normally mingle among these humans and dance until my body couldn't take it anymore.The loud music hurt my human ears, and the drink in my hands seemed to do wonders, as it was the only way for me to forget how unfair life could be.Indeed, I'm just a human. I've never shifted, nor do I believe I ever will.My 18th birthday was an awful day, the worst in my entire life. As if it wasn't enough for me not to shift, I was also rejected.I tried hard not to let the tear in my eye slide down my face. I don't show weakness, especially since I'm the only person left for my mother.Yes, my mom and I live alone, we don't have anyone by our side. We used to have a father, but he's gone. He's been gone for so long that it doesn't hurt as much as it used to.He was killed while protecting me from a rogue attack.No matter how hard I try to explain it, you wil
Laura's point of view:"See you at the run, Wolfie."It’s already been a week since I met the stranger at the bar, yet his last words kept repeating themselves in my mind like a promise that will come true.That kiss, that single kiss, has become a drug I'm addicted to, but I cannot have.It haunts me in my dreams, and even when I'm awake.Worse, I don't feel the same. Something inside me woke up the exact moment his soft, sweet, tasty lips touched mine.I shook my head while trying to push away all those worthless thoughts, then I collapsed onto my bed, exhausted. I couldn't sleep last night, and the night before.Furthermore, I am not just afraid, but terrified. Tonight is the big night, the moment the moon is spotted in the sky, and the run will start.The thing is, as a she-wolf, I need to shift, and when I do not...Well, I don't want to think about that either.A knock on the door brought me back to reality."Laura! Are you ready yet?" Mom sweetly called, but I could only help bu
Laura's point of view:It’s almost night. A few minutes are all that keep us all from running. Everyone seems to quietly enjoy their time, everyone but me.Of course, not only unmated wolves are welcome here. There are also mated couples who are here to celebrate such a magical night.I must admit that the bonfire looks quite appealing, and my body is so into giving in to the sweet melodies of drums.I would normally enjoy it all and wouldn’t find it hard to blend in between the wolves dancing around the bonfire. Still, I have more serious matters to think about for now.I stand along with the other rejected and unmated she-wolves, getting myself ready to run as fast as I can when it’s time. It’s a matter of twenty-four hours before my entire nightmare is over.I know I might lose my wolf once and forever. Still, it’s better than being enslaved in the hands of males who would want to break my soul and make an obedient breeding machine out of me.I was lost in my thoughts when I spotted
