She is wolfless and weak. Seen as the ugly duckling. Imagine being rejected by your mate, the king. Then a few years later, one wild night, you find yourself numb and in bed with someone, feeling powerless. That night results in pregnancy; your father, the viscount, is disgusted by you and exiles you from the pack and the city, not wanting you to dishonour the family name anymore. When six years later, you have your pups and a husband, a call comes through, and it's finally time to go back home. The prince who once rejected you was king, and now, you realise just who it was that you had spent that night with, and just who the father is to your pups. Now that he is ready to accept you as his mate, you're not willing to let his vile behaviour from before pass.
View MoreStefanI haven’t slept. I know he is due to arrive tonight, so I have stayed awake, pacing the halls of the palace. I aim to leave first thing in the morning.Right now, I accept that when he arrives, I need to let him rest before forcing him to come back out with me. He can rest, but at first light, we’re leaving. I won’t delay it anymore.He has been travelling for days. Usually, I would refuse to let them have a break and rest, but I need him, so I need to be careful how I act. The last thing I want is to upset him, and he refuses to help.It means I will get there in just over twenty-four hours. It takes about twenty-four hours to get there. Still, a lot can happen between now and then, like Harlyn waking up and panicking and running away from Wayne. That wouldn’t be good as I wouldn’t be able to find her then.“Your Majesty, people are approaching.” I turn, hearing the guard, and begin to walk to the door.“Son, let him rest,” my father says, and I nod.“I know, okay, I will welc
StefanWe sit and consider it. Consider why Harlyn would get the rarest wolf, the one never seen before.“The stories say the blue wolf is given as a blessing by the Moon Goddess to one individual who has fought battles many others would succumb to,” Harold explains. “The person blessed with the blue wolf is meant to have overcome hurdles like no other and proven themselves worthy of it. Typically in the stories, the Moon Goddess tests certain werewolves by not blessing them with a wolf straight away. If one proves worthy enough, they are blessed with the blue wolf, otherwise, they are given a normal one.”I don’t know enough about it to comment. It was a phantom, a story, something we would joke about as kids. Who has ever seen a blue wolf?Well, I have now. It was unlike any wolf before. Her fur was like the night sky, a deep blue, but there were small white spots, almost like light. Making it look like there were stars on her.“Harlyn has certainly faced a lot, and throughout it al
StefanI haven’t left the port, the ship has long gone, and I hate that I messed everything up. I made her stay with me, and rather than considering the consequences, I didn’t care. I just wanted Harlyn. I got lost in her and didn’t want to lose her, so I forgot about everyone else.Now, what do I do? All I can do is wait for this guy to show up, then we can go get her and hope that it works. If it doesn’t, then what?“We need to speak. You can’t stand here until you can leave.” My father taps my shoulder, and I know he’s right. Reluctantly, I turn and walk through the grounds back into the palace.I stop when I see the Earl. “Why is he here!” He should be dead.“Because we need to figure this out, and like it or not, as much as you hate it, Harold might actually help.”Standing, I fight against my mind, which right now wants to rip him apart.“Son, please sit. Let’s sort this as a family.” My mother looks at me.“He isn’t family!” Screaming, I glare towards him.“His son married your
WayneI watch as Harlyn sits with the pups. Everything went a mess. We weren’t meant to stay any longer than needed.“Are you okay, my love?” I look at her, feeling uneasy.“Perfect.” She smiles brightly at me.“Okay, I’m going to go see Ethan and check how things were while we were away.” Smiling, I walk out and head to the training ground; Ethan sees me and walks towards me.“So, how did it go?” He asks.“Wait until we get somewhere quiet.” I walk through the building and into the office, closing the door. I look at him.“You were going to test and see if it was possible. Is it possible?” He looks at me, waiting.“It is, providing we have enough men to keep the soldiers off the pups. If too many target one, then they are able to immobilise them, then we’re dead within seconds.” That is a risk.“Something happened? Before, you were confident nothing could go wrong.” He looks at me, waiting.“The magic isn’t working as strongly as it was meant to with Harlyn and King Stefan.” It’s wea
HarlynWayne is facing me, and I still feel lost and not in control of my body. How am I even a wolf? My mind goes back; I remember the howl and how it sounded like Thorin; I then saw his body, unmoving, and something happened. I shifted into a wolf and attacked the one person I knew would have hurt him.My father.I remember Stefan trying to stop me, but all my mind could see was Thorin hurt. All I could hear was the years of verbal abuse my father had thrown at me. I couldn’t stop myself from attacking until I saw Isaac standing ahead of me.“My love, you need to try to calm down,” Wayne whispers, but it feels impossible. ” While ever your heart is so quick you won’t shift back.”Closing my eyes, I try to calm down, and slowly, I feel myself shift back. Wayne drapes a blanket around my naked body. He moves closer and hugs me. I feel so confused right now; I slept with Stefan after I had told Lucy I didn’t feel ready to let anyone in that much.All those thoughts, doubts and worries
StefanI have no idea how long I have been in this room with her, but I’m not willing to take my hands off her, as I feel like as soon as I do, she is gone again.So I don’t. I stay in the bed with her body wrapped around mine, accepting that this might just be the only way to keep her here and Wayne away from her until the warlock arrives. While praying that our mating brings back the bond.Her small moans of pleasure only seem to heighten every sensation and pull me in deeper.The happiness doesn’t last long as I hear shouting and commotion, and I know that Wayne can’t get past Harold. He’s not strong enough to overtake him.I hear the door smashing, followed by howl. My eyes fly around the room, and I see Thorin on the floor. Jumping from the bed, I grab my clothes, my eyes going to the Earl, his body covered in blood.Harlyn rushes to Thorin. Her eyes glow, and I hear a growl erupt from within her. My body moves back just as she shifts and launches herself at the Earl.I watch as
StefanSomething made me want to find Harlyn; I know the pups are safe, but after seeing Lucy, I know Harlyn is alone. As I walk down the hall, I hear the raised voices.“You used some kind of spell, right? What did you do to the king to make you think he loves you so much that he threw away a perfectly good future queen for nothing more than a whore!” The Earl’s words echo around the hall, and I move more quickly to her room. Stepping in, I see them, his body almost pinning hers against the wall.“Do you think we’re blind? No one is, so whatever spell you used, you can just undo it and disappear forever and never return!” Moving, I drag him back, my hand throwing him against the wall.“Do not raise your voice at her again!” Moving, I push him out of the room and close the door.“I’m sorry, Your Majesty, but she wouldn’t listen to reason!”“Neither would I if you spoke to me in that way! I am not under a spell. What will it take for you to finally realise that everything I said is the
HarlynIt has been weird this morning. Wayne left with the pups to spend time with my Father and for some reason, Lucy hasn’t left the room.I’m not sure why she is here, but she isn’t willing to leave. We’ve spoken a lot about her and Samuel; it is nice to hear about how they started and have grown to love each other.Mates sometimes have no feelings for each other. Some even hate each other, like Stefan and me. Sighing, I consider it. I remember now that before he became cruel and heartless, we were close.I felt like I loved him even at that young age, but he didn’t love me, or did he?“You and Wayne.” I glance up, hearing Lucy speak. “Why haven’t you mated or slept together? You said you don’t even share a bed at home?” She looks at me, confused.“When I got to Wayne’s pack, I was a mess; I was heavily pregnant and not mentally right. I was weak, more because I had faced like six months of rejection over and over from pack after pack. I felt like I couldn’t trust anyone enough to
StefanI watch Thorin, and he seems to be in his element training, especially having Carlton here. While Isaac and Lotta are training, Thorin seems to take it more seriously.“Did you ever lose against something?” Thorin looks at Carlton, and he nods. “Did you have a weakness they used?” Thorin questions him, and Carlton stops.“No, weaknesses have nothing to do with why people lose,” Carlton explains and goes back to training with Thorin, but I can see now Thorin has more questions.“So, was it because you felt something and had emotions?”Carlton stops again and looks at him. “No, emotions are good when it comes to battles,” Carlton explains.“No, emotions are weaknesses, and we can’t have weaknesses.” My body runs cold as I hear Thorin.“Emotions are good,” Carlton looks at him. “Imagine someone hurting the person you love; you would feel angry, right? Using that anger in a battle is good,” Carlton explains.“No, anger makes you act and not think. No emotion is better.” Thorin argu
