"Calm down. Remember she still needs a house to live in so you can't destroy this place" The gaping hole in the hallway doesn't make me feel better. I want to knock every wall down and then stomp on the wreckage until nothing but dust is left. How did I not see this? I'm not with her every second of the day but I've been here. We sleep on the same bed dammit. Something like this shouldn't have happened right under my nose. How did he approach her without my knowledge? How long did it take him to do it? I can't imagine he accomplished this in one day. The human mind is fragile. Too much manipulation could lead to insanity. How did he manage to pick out everything relating to me and erased it? Is there a way to restore it? Fuck, this is bad. What the fuck was I doing? Why did I let him get to her? Where was everyone? "Reign!" I call, storming downstairs. He appears at the foot of the stairs. "Sir" "Tell me everything she did today. Don't leave a single detail out" "After you l

The first week was everything I'd thought the rest of my life would be. I spent time catching up with Reagan and Nova. Now that Logan wasn't a problem anymore, we had nothing to worry about. We went out, skipped from pack to pack because Reagan had decided to start looking for her mate and tried out new places. She even convinced me to cross the border and spend the weekend in the human world drinking cheap beer and shopping in renowned stores. We went to the park, ate an unhealthy amount of sweets then soaked our tired bodies in bathtubs back at the hotel. In short, I had fun. There was no time to think about anyone. Although, that didn't stop him from creeping up on me in my dreams. I'd dream of his lips everywhere on my body even though they'd only ever touched my forehead that one time we went for a walk. Of his hands kneading my flesh as he thrust into me. Of the filthy words he whispered in my ear and the sounds, he made when he came. Then I'd wake up sweaty and needy and my bod

Her grip is so strong that my scalp is burning. It feels like my hair will come out any time now. She stops in the corridor then shoves me forward. I stumble and land on my palms and knees. If it wasn't for the carpet, the fall would have scraped my knees. All my life, people have scorned me, called me names, and made fun of me but no one has ever touched me. This is a first. Judging by the number of feet in front of me, the spectators have already arrived. I just got back and I don't want to make a scene but this bitch went too far. Who is she to kick me out of Kaden's room? And so violently at that. Anger, embarrassment, and humiliation burn in my chest. She won't get away with this. Blowing my hair out of my face, I get up. "What gives you the right to lay your hands on me?" "Dirty, filthy wolf. Have I not made it clear that this room is off-limits?" "Who are you to say that? What right do you have to forbid anyone from entering that room?" She takes a step toward me. A small pa

"Your majesty, I don't think leaving while we're in the middle of court is a wise decision" "Is that so?" "Yes. Please, go back and..." "Perrin, the day you lift that crown from the chair and put it on your head is the day I'll start taking orders from you" Until then, he can fuck off. I give him a look that conveys those words and judging by the way his nostrils flare, I have no doubt he understood what I meant. He bows his head as I walk past him. "His majesty wouldn't leave unless he had an emergency" Merlin tries to explain but the truth is that I would leave even if it wasn't an emergency. I don't know who decided to employ those contemptible ministers. I'm guessing some of them employed themselves and have been passing their positions down to their sons or family. Something I will be rectifying soon. They won't see it coming. "Is there a problem?" Reign asks walking behind me. "Yes," I leave it at that. The problem with living among other Lycans is that they

"Hi. I heard you came back yesterday" "Uh what... why... how..." I stop because I'm not making any sense. His hand is still around me and if I could, I would have already pushed him away. But as it is, I don't think I can continue standing without his help. How the hell did he find me? I don't remember telling him I was part of Bittercrest let alone that I was coming here."I joined the pack two weeks ago" Yeah, I definitely need him to continue holding me up. "You joined the pack? As in left yours to join this one?" "Yes" "What about your family? Your mate and kids?" He hauls me up his body, his other hand coming up to the back of my head, cradling me gently."You are my mate" he bites out, his tone sharp "I am so angry with myself for not waiting. I never should have agreed to be with Anais. We got together for the wrong reasons which is why it didn't work out between us" So he decided to seek me out? Too late buddy. Suck it up and take care of your kids. I'm about to tell him
