Erik's POVThe fact that he is directing his killer's intent on Clara confirmed my suspicions. The wedding ceremony and celebration were ongoing until midnight. After that, we all rest, and now we are preparing to travel back to the pack house since the wedding is already over. We planned on staying for two more nights, but Lia scolded us, telling us that we could not be away from the pack for too long. Even after Clara pouted at her, she still insisted on going home. We were done putting our luggage in the back of my truck and rode in my car. As usual, Tia rode her broom and flew across the sky while we were in my vehicle. Ian and Lia sat in the front, Ian was the driver, and I was with my mate at the back. The drive home was quiet. With all the problems we kept facing, we all thought the same. "When will this end?" •••••We traveled for two days, and now we are officially home. Clara and I made our way to our house to take a rest. "I'm hungry," Clara said. We were about to sle

Clara's POVWe woke up in the middle of the night when we smelled some smoke surrounding our territory. Since we have the barrier, the enemies cannot come inside. Erik was mind-linking, someone, while I changed. Erik wore some t-shirts, and we both went to the throne room, waiting for the pack's report. "Do you think it's them?" I asked nervously to Erik. I am nervous about what is happening outside the barrier. We wanted to go and face the enemies, too, but Tia stopped us from going out. She scolded us and said trust the werewolves that we are ruling. We stayed quiet at her words since we both knew what Tia said was true. Our warriors all over the country are strong and dependable. We should stay here and await their report of victory. "I think it is," Erik said, looking coldly at the door. I am feeling in our mate link that he is also worried and nervous. He may be strict with our subordinates, but he cares for them deeply. I grabbed his hand, he looked at me, and I smiled at hi

Erik’s POV The troops started their march, and I returned to our bedroom to check on Clara. I saw her sleeping peacefully and headed towards the kitchen since my mother mind-linked me earlier to eat. I saw my mother standing in the kitchen while removing her apron. “Mom,” I said, calling her attention. She looked at me and smiled. “Here you are. I thought you’ll be late again. Where’s Clara?” She asked. “In the bedroom, sleeping,” I said and sat on one of the chairs at the dining table. My mother served the food and put some plates on my side table. I smiled and whispered thanks while she moved around serving the cooked food. “Did you have a meeting in the throne room?” She asked, and I nodded while putting multiple foods on my plate. “It must be important since you look like that,” She said softly. “I had a meeting with the captains. I ordered them to attack one of the Alphas,” I said. I was about to tell her about Alpha Louis, but I decided to hide it from her. She is close

Clara's POV"It was Ms. Ellie, your majesty," Tia said anxiously, and we all had surprised faces. I felt Erik's aura. He released all of his aura and mixed it with killing intent. He directed it to Tia. I bit my lip anxiously when I saw Tia on the ground, almost kissing the floor. Vincent tries to control his wolf and not move from his spot. "YOU DARE!" Erik shouted. "ENOUGH," I said with authority. I used my power to protect Tia and Vincent from Erik's power. Erik looked at me furiously, and I gave him a blank look. "Tch," Erik backed out and calmed himself. "Guards," I called.In a second, the guards guarding outside the throne room entered and rushed in front. "Bring me, Ellie," I ordered, and Erik gave me a surprised look. "Seems like you are determined to use your anger in this meeting," I said, looking disappointed. I didn't wait for his response and looked at Vincent and Tia. "Make a list of those who went out from the barrier," I ordered Tia. She bowed and gave me a si

Clara’s POVI rose from bed early in the morning and went straight to the bathroom to shower. It has been seven months, and I am in my last trimester already. Time passed, and now we are just waiting for my baby to join us in the outside world. Many things happened in the past few months. My brother Vincent and the pack members continuously pursued Alpha Louis, but it was all in vain. They didn’t bother us these past few months. That is why Erik is getting restless as time goes by. We couldn’t think of any reasons why the enemies became quiet. Tia also announced that she was pregnant three months ago, and we all celebrated in the pack house while Ellie was still detained in her room. Erik didn’t visit her ever since she got imprisoned, and I also never went and visited her for once. I wiped my hair and my body. It was hard for me to move since my stomach was big now. Erik assigned one more warrior to me since he wanted to ensure I was safe. The wall currently getting built around t
