Olivia POVI woke you the next morning so comfortable on my bed. I wondered how I got here because the last thing I recollect was resting on my dad’s shoulders.I probably fell asleep there as they brought me up here, I couldn’t remember but I knew I slept well. It’s been so long since I slept without a single worry in the world.I hurriedly got out of bed because I was eager to know how the patrol went with Lucien, he must be so tired right now.I rushed into the bathroom and rushed out getting myself into some comfortable clothes who were hurrying downstairs.I ran like I was being chased through the stairs and finally arrived at the large living room.I was surprised to see Lucien, Lucas, and Lucar sleeping on the couches looking so tired.It must have been so tiring having to stand guard throughout the whole day. I felt I had a part to play as I could see the place gesture on Lucien’s face even in his sleep.Maybe Dad was right, they weren’t that bad and I was willing to let thing

Olivia’s POV“I sent them off, I initially wanted to make breakfast for the whole family.” I said in a dejected tone. Thanks to Kay he ruined my plans with his issues.“Oh before the whole thing happened. Okay you can still cook.” He said with a bright smile present on his face.“Olivia are you okay baby?” My mom asked as she rushed towards me holding my hands gently as he pulled me into a warm embrace.“I’m fine mom, Lucien was there to intervene.” I replied pulling myself from the tight hug.“Are you okay Olivia ?” The king asked, standing at the entrance of the door and it was obvious he didn’t want to come in.“Yes I’m fine, my brothers saved me.” I said with so much happiness evident in my voice. That felt so nice to say.“It was nothing, it’s all under control now so there’s nothing for the both of you to worry about.” Lucien said as Lucar and Lucas arrived behind the king.“Thank you for taking care of your sister, I’m very proud of such a step you all took.” The king said wit

Marcus’s POV*Flashback*“Honey what going on?” Elina asked rushing to me as soon as she heard the commotion outside.“It’s nothing my dear, it’s just Lucien being stupid, it’s all under control now.” I said assuring her letting a light pat on her forehead.My love increased for her ever since she gave me three sons all at once, I always since she would bring me good virtue ever since our alignment was made. Now not only did she give me a Hier, she gave me three:“Lucien? What happened to him? Where is he now? You know I don’t like it whenever you have issues with Lucien, he seems dangerous and I don’t want you guys going against each other.” She said in a worried tone as I led her to the dining room.“ Calm down Elina, you don’t have anything to worry about concerning Lucien, he’s just very incontent with his position in life. Lucien had always been a wolf in sheep clothing and today he said all he felt.” I said making a slight pause because the details weren’t necessary.All that ma

Marcus’s POV**Back to the present.*“So the retaliation of Lucien led to the death of Elina: he had her killed mercilessly. He partnered up with the rogues that day through Damon and by the time we found Elina; she was fighting for her life. I watched her on her sick bed and there was nothing I could do to save her. She begged me on her deathbed to make sure I took good care of her boys. “ I finally explained the whole thing as tears gathered up in the corner of my eyes.I knew I didn’t need the tears again because I've been so far with the boys and I know she would be so proud wherever she might be.“Marcus dear, I have no idea you were going through anything of such, it’s not your fault any of that happened: you were the King and you acted like one. There’s nothing to blame yourself for.” She said rubbing my back gently which had a way of comforting me.I felt so safe around because I never told anyone this side of the story because of the guilt that gripped me.“It’s my fault she

Chapter Olivia’s POVAfter answering mother, I returned to my room only to shut the door with the lock then flopped on my bed. I tried to shake off the scene from my head but I just couldn't. If only I had obeyed my instinct that had asked me to shut the door when I returned from the bathroom, this wouldn't have happened. "Or if I had dressed up in the bathroom, then…" I grabbed my hair then pulled it with all my might. "Come on Olivia, get a grip of yourself." I said, hitting my head with a hand while tugging my hair with the other hand. Well, I wouldn't lie, it had always been my fantasy of sharing a kiss with Lucien. Smirking, I sat up on my bed only to see a message notification on my phone. "Lucas." I called. He had asked me to return his hoodie which I had sneaked out from his room the previous week. I didn't have any intention of returning it so I decided to go see him empty handed. If he asks for it, I will pull the laundry card on him. Getting to his room, I knocked
