Adrian's POVI had never seen the Prince so frustrated and anxious. Yes, he was sad when everything we had built for years went into flames, but he wasn't anxious. I couldn't believe he was anxious over a woman. She was nothing but a cursed slave! If she dies no one cares!The Prince was bitter with himself as he asked questions about his wolf and how to control it.There was no formula for it. His wolf had harboured resentments for years and it just came out. It could be the reason why he was enraged and went haywire.Although it might not be the case for everyone. Some attained their wolves at the right time and they still have it wrong at their first shift.I asked the Prince how he was able to wolf out. He did not reveal it but I knew there as to be a trigger. In his case, he couldn't just wolf out ordinarily after such long years of dormancy.Despite the disaster, I was happy for him. He was able to wolf out. Watching him grow without meeting his wolf was a burden in my heart. Th

Ashley's POV"What the heck is he doing here? He will get us busted," I thought as I walked towards him."Good day, my Prince," I greeted bowing my head."You should have your seat. I was waiting for Regan but it seems he is busy," he said, leading me on."The Dowager called him…""Yes, I saw the messenger," he cut me off."How are you? Are you okay?" He asked, looking worried."Did you send your father away well?" "Yes my Prince," I responded politely."I am glad it ended well… the Prince was lenient enough," he added, looking straight into my eyes."You don't have to be courteous with me… we are the only ones here…" he said, taking a good look at my neck."Good luck with Regan… he has marked you… I think he likes you already… calling you back to the palace is working well for you," he said with a straight face."I am happy you survived the ordeal yesterday, I meant meeting Regan's wolf… and I want to apologize on his behalf. He turned on you because he couldn't help it. He had harb

Adrian's POV I didn't intend to continue the kiss but the look in Nat's eyes made me do it. She looked stunted in a funny way that felt like she wanted me to continue. I dropped the meat in my hand and pulled her closer. She didn't resist me, she just stood there looking at me.My hand rested on the small of her back and I pulled her in as I ravaged her lips with my hunger.I had never been intimate with any woman all my life. I had been busy growing my abilities and guarding the Prince. I think I qualified for a celibate until now.Nat's lips tasted sweet and soft like soft petals, I didn't let go. My Te'o hands rested on the nape of her neck as I deepened the kiss.Suddenly a sweet-smelling fragrance which I hadn't noticed during my encounters with her wafted into my nose.Sam jumped up in my head and I was almost seeing bubbles. This is beautiful! It felt like I was climbing into the clouds. I had never felt any emotions close to it before."Mate…" Sam muttered joyously while my

Ashley's POVPrince Asher was waiting at Prince Regan's chambers. When I saw him, I remembered Regan's warning and my heart skipped a beat.Looking at his direction, I shook my head. He looked at me but his gaze shifted down to Regan who was in the wheelchair.Not knowing what the two were doing, I steered clear of him and took another route instead."Ashely! Wait!" he yelled and I grimaced. I thought he took the hint."Take her away!" Asher yelled and while I looked around, some guards seized me up from behind."My Prince!" I yelled in confusion and broke loose from those holding me back"Stop! He won't want you to see him this way… Words must not get out either" Asher said and I stopped.What is he talking about? Angrily, I launched forward and burst out from behind him. I burst in front of Prince Regan and fell on my butt in shock. His eyes were closed and blood was dripping from his mouth."My Prince!!" I yelled in horror but Asher shook his head telling me not to shout. I covere

Ashley's POVI was beginning to stir awake when a faint voice broke into my head. It was calling my name faintly. At first I thought it was Natasha, so I opened my eyes. She had woken up and she was sitting up staring into my eyes."Did you call me just now? Are you in pain again?" I muttered.Nodding her head, she smiled at me and in the next second, she was hugging me tightly. I was shocked.She always flinched anytime I tried to hold her and here she is, hugging me tightly."Thank you for helping me yesterday, you eased my pain," she said with her eyes glowing "Anything for you," I said and hugged her back. I felt her heartbeat and she felt mine. I wanted her but I wanted it to be mutual. So I am still waiting for her.She lifted her head from my shoulder and I felt empty. She was warming up to me and that was cool.Her arms remained around my neck and I looked curiously at her. She hoisted her face closer and my eyes shone wide as she kissed me. She was so soft and gentle, my h
