Chapter 102________________Kaden's POV…“Seriously? How f****** hard is it for you to catch a single f****** rabbit!” I couldn't help but yell at Caddel. He seemed nonchalant about the whole thing, and that only added to my vexation. We've been out here for two hours now trying to catch any single animal, but it's impossible with Caddel fooling around; precisely, he's grown too lazy.“What's the big deal?” he rolled his eyes, leaning on a large rock. “I mean, the palace has more than enough meat for us to even consume. So, why the f*** do you keep stressing yourself?” he added laxly. I almost snapped and shot the arrow at him. Then again, taking what he said into consideration does make sense, but that doesn't give us a reason to be so lenient—aren't we the supposed warrior wolves of the pack? The entire pack would fall if an attack were to happen, and we are weak, right? I've been trying to reason with Caddel, but he's too thick-headed to understand shit. “I bet you don't even kn

Chapter 104______________Dorian's POV…“I am so f****** tired! Beta Dorian, can we please take a break?” that was a request coming from the delta who accompanied me to the village. Currently, we were all riding our respective horses, and I glanced to look at him. Considering his request, it does make sense he needs to take a break because we are all so f****** tired—I have been working my ass throughout the break of dawn. And trust me, all I want right now is to submerge myself in a hot bath.Then again, that can't be possible until all work has been completed. “No. If we slack off, there's no guarantee when we'll return to the pack. I know you all are exhausted, but please endure!” I declined his request while simultaneously encouraging them. Afterward, there was silence as we continued to ride to the village.Never did I know being a beta could be so f****** hectic; before I got dethroned, being an alpha wasn't much of a hassle. Then why the hell is being a beta so f****** tiresom

Chapter 106_________________Writer's POVStaring blankly out the window, she couldn't stop reminiscing about the day's event. Her fight with Dorian had left a painful sting in her heart, and no matter how hard she tried, she just couldn't. As much as she badly wants to believe that she is right and Dorian is wrong, her subconscious won't agree with her. Daciana is aware of how Dorian values his friends more than anything, yet she tried to hinder him from saving Ashina. It infuriates her like crazy that Dorian still cares for Ashina despite her close relationship with Henry. Never will she be able to get over the fact that Henry tried to rape her. And just knowing that Ashina is his beta makes her blood boil. “Why can't that f****** dumbass understand my perspective?” she hushed as she strolled back to her bed. Falling flatly on it, she continued gaping at the ceiling with numerous thoughts flooding her head. Although it was almost late at night and a knock persisted on her door.

Chapter 108________________Daciana's POV…All I could feel At that moment was the overwhelming desire to f*** Dorian up badly. Because of this jerk, I am here exchanging words with this lowlife bitch. After the annual ceremony a few months ago I concluded that I would never set my eyes on Ashina until the day I die—I f****** despise her existence; I despise the fact that I breathe in the same air that she does—it kills me to the core just knowing she f****** likes my mate. Even before I discovered that Dorian was my mate, I never, for once, liked her. The other day, when he brought her back into the pack, I had a hard time controlling my urge to snap her neck off; he can't tell me he isn't aware of how much I despise her. I know he does, then why the hell would he sign the f****** allegiance?Is he thrilled by my harsh attitude towards Ashina or what? Presently, I refused to allow Ashina and the other wolves into the palace—they have to move my dead body away from the gates before

Chapter 110________Daciana's pov.We all heightened our senses and jolted our gazes back to the elder that had just spoken.Something suddenly felt off. My senses could pick up a dark aura emanating from the direction where Ashina was seated. She had thin lines on her forward. I could feel anger boiling up inside her and I was thrilled. I couldn't ask for more, hahaha. "We celebrate you, guest, for coming, and also with this, the alliance has been enacted " the elder trailed off.It was supposed to be my role but I shifted it to him not wanting to spit any words that would please Ashina but rather rile her up. "Cheer to our alliance" the elder concluded and brought forward his glass of wine midair.We all grabbed on ours, but me, with a little bit of hesitation before finally giving in. We lightly collided our cups before plunging them downwards and drinking up the wine. Loud chattering could be heard, the alliance caused an uproar in the hall, and everyone was happy except for
