"Can you tell us what's going on?" Caspian was casually gazing at his gold pocket watch when Tommaso inquired. He grinned wickedly and raised his attention to the elders, who were all looking at him with wide eyes.
He lifted an eyebrow to appear ignorant. "What?"Garrett shook his head and heaved an exasperated sigh. "This kid,""The female you brought into the castle, who was she?" The elders all looked at Fernando expectantly as Fernando roared, and they all started to mumble.Caspian laughed incredulously. They had a keen interest in Mona? He wasn't surprised because they constantly interfered with his life by bringing in women who were willing to have sex with him in the vain hope that one of them would be his mate or would bear him a child, but he didn't care because none of them could because none of them was his mate."Is she your mate?""You brought her in yourself. Her identity is unknown. Why can't we identify who or what she is?""She was disgusting.""She is merely a desired visitor. There is nothing to worry about." Caspian uttered a long sigh before returning his attention to the pocket watch.The elders regarded him with an inquisitive gaze."You personally went to look into the incident, didn't you? Did you find her there?" Fernando questioned abruptly, and the elders all looked at him as if he had done something wrong, but he appeared completely unconcerned."No."The elders all turned to look at Caspian, showing disbelief at his direct response."So, where did you find her?" Garrett enquired."It is now quite late. You all need to depart because I need some alone time in my castle without you elderly people." With a firm tone and a high head, Caspian spoke.He spun his heels and slowly walked out of the room while putting the gold pocket watch in his pocket as the elders all gave him angry looks in response to what he had said.Given that they were unable to discern what Mona actually was, there was no way he was going to reveal that she was his mate. Eventually, they would give up and classify her as a human.....It was past midnight.Mona was lying on the bed, rubbing her grumbling tummy as the castle was dead silent. She pursed her lips in irritation and scrunched her face in anguish.After Caspian left, nobody else entered the room, not even servants to take care of her. She didn't bother to clean herself up because there was no outfit in the wardrobe to change into."Some people can truly get famished from this revenge thing. Who on earth would abandon his mate in hunger?" Mona grumbled and pushed herself off of the chair before heading for the door.The only option left was for her to go out and get supper herself.She opened the door, entering the dim corridor, and carefully shut it behind her. Although the solitude was eerie, her hunger was more terrifying.She started moving in the direction Caspian had walked, in her memory. When she thought about how he had taken her in his arms, her heart started to beat quickly. He had a pleasing, alluring fragrance of his own. His rose oil-infused manly smell lingered. His deep voice was innately enticing, and each word he said had the cadence of a beguiling lullaby.Mona stopped walking as she became aware of how much she was thinking about him. "What?!" She whirled around and whispered as she walked quickly till she was in front of an elevator.It was obviously going to be faster than the stairs.She recalled that Caspian had followed the stairs while carrying her. "He moved so fast. Shit! I thought I was heavy." She muttered, pursing her lips.She pushed the button with a shrug, and the door flung open. When she walked in, she checked the buttons to confirm that she was on the fifth floor.Interesting.She put it on the ground floor and slowly moved back.In no time, the door opened, she hurriedly exited, emerging in another dim hallway, and she started eagerly scanning the area for any indication of a kitchen or refrigerator. Anything that might contain food!Suddenly, a mouthwatering aroma caught her attention and led her to pursue it. She was greatly relieved to find herself in a big, opulent kitchen that made her jaw drop. Her eyes spotted a huge refrigerator, and her legs ran there before her thoughts could describe it. It was pulled open by her hands to expose an abundance of fruits, pies, and chocolate ice cream.But, where did that smell come from?She quickly took out the bowl of ice cream, grinned pleasantly, and spooned some into her mouth, clutching her face due to the terrible brain freeze that had struck her."My chocolate ice cream." She froze as she heard a familiar, soothing voice reverberating behind her that unexpectedly sounded dejected.She sensed his imposing presence behind her and anticipated feeling hate, but all she experienced instead was a draw toward him that caused her to turn to face him.The source of the mouthwatering aroma was revealed as he held a tray of various steamed scrumptious delicacies. But he didn't look happy.She was staring at him in shock with the spoon in her mouth, chocolate ice cream rubbing against the sides of her lips.As she took a step backward to remove the spoon from her mouth, Caspian heaved a heavy sigh, set the tray on the table next to him, and then approached her."Don't get any closer!" She raised her voice like a mouse attempting to sound tougher than a lion. Cute."What are you doing here? Why did you leave the room?""You didn't tell me not to leave the room,""Neither did I tell you to leave the room, lavender,"Mona blinked at him then rolled her eyes. "We are even."Caspian guffawed. The trembling girl disappeared, but where to?"I don't even." He hissed deeply, pushing his hair back.Mona took a deep breath. Finding his every movements deeply seductive, she froze as he abruptly grabbed her wrist and the ice cream bowl."No one rolls their eyes at me."He glared softly, she blinked rapidly.He set the bowl on the table and drew her closer, putting his arms around her petite form and grinning maliciously as she stared up at him, shocked."Do you know what I do to rude girls like you?" He suddenly asked, his crimson eyes burning sinisterly with delight."I..""I spank them." He drew her in closer, prompting a gasp from her as their chests pressed against each other. "Hard."Looking into those scorching crimson eyes, which were brimming with want and mirth, she held her breath. Her heart was racing out of control. She was unable to look away from him despite the fact that his words were resonating in her head.He caused a response in her body. It was a really bad sign."You..!" She cried out, but she was at a loss for words.He grinned. "Me?""This is harassment. By the way, I was starving and because I didn't see you or anyone else, I made the decision to go get some food on my own.""Harassment, huh?" Caspian raised a finger and put his thumb on her lower lip. His eyes twinkled. While his breath was constant, hers was erratic as a result of his contact and his piercing eyes were glued to her seductive lips."You are touching me." She forced a firm swallow as her voice quivered. "I find it unpleasant.""But you're not shoving me away or trying to get out of my arms, are you?" Caspian cooed as his thumb moved to the side of her lips to remove the chocolat
The sound of birds chirping awakened Ramona. After getting dressed, she was startled to see a variety of pricey clothing in the closet. It appeared to have been planned especially for her.She finished getting dressed and then stood in front of the mirror with her hair in a sloppy bun. Smiling and appreciating her reflection, she froze when she saw her eyes sparkle with golden light.The enchantment Nessa had put on her to keep people from figuring out who she truly was was deteriorating. To cast the magic, she needed a secluded location, but first she had to track down Caspian.A knock on the door was heard as she turned her attention away to it."Come on in."The maids who had assisted her with cleaning last night were readily visible when the door opened. They were astounded to see her already in flawless attire looking at the mirror."Where is Caspian?" Mona asked right away as she walked towards them with her hands in her pockets.The maids could feel her commanding presence. She
"Is there something wrong with the food?" Caspian inquired coolly, his gorgeous features sporting an amused grin. His eyes were burning as usual, but this time they were glowing in a forewarning manner. Why was she hesitant when she knew it was only food and that she was supposed to chew it up and swallow it like the other night right in front of him?"No, no, it's delicious." Mona grumbled and pulled her hair back in an effort to divert her attention from her thoughts and herself.Considering that he was the one to blame for her current predicament, Mona didn't appreciate the stare in particular. He had her so turned on that she was oblivious to the fact that she was still hungry, if not famished. She wanted him to commit evil acts on her body but was trying to chase that desire away. However, his stare was only making her hotter and drenched."So why won't you eat, Lavender?" Caspian enquired.Mona dropped the spoon, letting out a frustrated sigh. "I find it unbelievable that you are
Mona's eyes, which were blazing with brilliant gold and highlighting the beauty of her innocent-yet-fierce face, were fixed on her reflection in the mirror. She didn't bother to alert any servants for her need to dress, and although she didn't want other people touching her, she always became mute around Caspian.She scoffed to herself as she tastefully applied bright red lipstick to her full, little lips, pressed them together, and observed the golden glow fade from her eyes. It was difficult for her to conceal her strength and abilities, and she had the impression that no matter how she cast the spell meant to do so, it wasn't powerful enough. She was surrounded by lycans in the castle, and to make matters worse, Caspian was a lycan king."I find this unbelievable." She muttered to herself before getting off of the chair and parting her forehead with her short hair's bangs.She became Dalerie's ruler all of a sudden. She was a ruler, even though she was just transitory.She started
Mona was shielding her severely damaged cheek. Antonio, shocked and dumbfounded, lurched away from her, but it didn't stop blood from gushing forth. She had tears in her eyes from the anguish.Andres watched everything happen, remaining motionless. A storm was about to break out.Instantaneously, Antonio collapsed to his knees, breathing heavily as though he had just finished a marathon. The temperature plunged violently.His body shook as he stammered, "I..I.."Caspian approached his mate and took her into his arms like a calm beast on the prowl.Mona, who was in excruciating pain and knew that Caspian wanted to take care of her injuries before dealing with Antonio, who had committed the biggest mistake of his life, didn't want to wait and moved her hand to his pocket where she felt a gun and pulled it out. Without waiting for her to say something, he turned to face Antonio and Andres and she shot Antonio at his left shoulder and another, to his head.Mona felt comfortable with her ac
Her sparkling, golden eyes fluttered open. She stretched her arms out, moaning and sat down on the bed. As she turned to look around, she saw Caspian seated on the chair at the side of the bed, clothed in a gray suit and gazing at her as if she were a book that needed to be carefully read.He looked like a painting. A painter would undoubtedly sob if they could only imagine him.Why was he so appealing?His hair was carefully pulled back, and he had ruby eyes that were staring at her with such intensity that if he closed them, she would vanish.She glanced at him, focusing on his hand that was resting on the armrest of the chair. He had a cigarette in his hand, but it wasn't yet lit.Caspian mumbled, "Good morning lavender."Mona mumbled "Morning," clutching the duvet to her chest, dodging his eyes. "You're staring.""Am I forbidden to?""Does my mouth smell bad?" Mona asked in an abrupt tone, casting him a doubtful glance. "What?" He raised his brows in her direction. She scowled an
For another two days, there was sign of Caspian. It was suffocating and Mona was starting to feel enraged because her revenge wasn't really a revenge if he wasn't present with her.She was starting to get bored.In the largest sitting room of the castle, Justice was pacing in front of her, holding a tab while she sat awkwardly, staring at him. Her head was on the ground and her legs were laying against the couch. She kept blowing air into her mouth and breathing out harshly with the aim to bug Justice who seemed to working.She was extremely bored!"Justice!" She screamed.The Beta yelped and turned his attention to her, widening his eyes. Seeing her current position which was not how a Luna should seat, he blinked, cleared his throat and arranged his tie."You...""I am boreeeeeddd!" She drawled pouting her lips."What?" Justice almost laughed."I am bored! Can't you see? I want to go out! Get a job!" "A job?" Justice raised his brow."Uh huh." She nodded and lifted herself up grun
"Are you asleep?" Javier questioned as he fixed his gaze on Caspian, who was sitting upright and had his eyes closed. "We have arrived at the castle.""I know." Caspian mumbled before opening his fiery crimson eyes. "I'm worn out."Javier laughed. "I understand that."As the car halted precisely in front of the staircase leading to the castle's entryway, one of the soldiers unlocked the door with his head lowered in respect."I'm going to go for a walk." Caspian sighed and got out of the vehicle."You must first eat!" Javier shouted, but Caspian disregarded him and moved on.Caspian walked steadily in the direction of the garden, taking in the chilly, clear night air. Lightly groaning, he scoffed and lifted his eyes to the sky before deciding to turn around and return to the castle.But as he started to feel uncomfortable, he stopped walking and his eyes grew wide. He had a nasty feeling that Mona would suffer some sort of misfortune.He caught her scent and started to run in that di
