Rhea's POV　　Daemon leaned in, closer so that our noses could briefly collide. I can feel his hot breath against my lips, I nervously swallowed the big lump that has managed to form in my throat. 　　I suddenly felt hot, the atmosphere was not in my favor at all because I could feel the tension in the air. What... What is he up to? I just couldn't tell because I couldn't think straight.　　Brushing his lips past my cheeks to my ear, "Daemon to you," I felt him say it like it was the right thing to do.　　Gulping hard, I placed my hand over his chest and suddenly pushed him off me, his gaze met mine again and I can see the coldness in them for our sudden detachment from each other. 　　"I am sorry, my King, but it is taboo and against the custom to address a king by his first name," clasping my hands together, I lowered my head.　　I don't know his reasons for doing this but what I don't want is the wrath of a king on me. I haven't survived Kian, so tell me if it is this angry devilish kno

　　Daemon's POV　　"Fuck the goddamn people! I don't give a fuck about their saying," 　　"Then what about her own opinion and feelings?" Does Sam always have to annoy me any further, he should be thinking of how to accompany me to that filthy pack to claim back what truly belongs to me and not here siding with them.　　A low growl is starting to form at the back of my head, "Is not like she has any choice," I growled. "She is mine after all," 　　"No. No. No, there you go wrong, Daemon," he threw his hands up in the air in disapproval. Do I now have to listen to him as well? 　　"I need you to know that this is complicated and violent is not the best way to resolve this," I glared at him.　　"What?" He raised a brow after noticing the life-threatening glare that I was hurling his way. "You know that I am spilling facts here, bro," he adds.　　"What nonsense fact because I need to get there and drag her ass down here!" My voice was deep and filled with sadness.　　"Nothing new here," he said dr

　　Sheila's POV　　I paced angrily and restlessly around my room, consumed by deep pain. Something felt off, and my instincts, which had never failed me before, were telling me that everything changed when Luna of the Blackwood Pack entered the picture.　　Daemon had transformed, becoming a mere shadow of his former self. He no longer gazed at me with the same intensity, and I no longer held his desire. Luna had stolen my place in his heart. I had always consoled myself by believing they were in contact solely due to the alliance, but everything shifted on that goddamn night.　　My perspective on the situation changed dramatically when Daemon led me into his office. I smiled bitterly, my gaze fixated on the world outside my room window.　　For a fleeting moment, I thought we were returning to normal, but hell no! It was just a cruel illusion. It became clear that I meant nothing to him once again. With each forceful thrust, all he kept calling and screaming was RHEA complementing and emphas

　　Rhea's POV　　There was a gasp and murmur among everyone present in the room at that moment. My gaze was fixed on Kian who as well looked taken back by my words. I know that I should have just stood up and walked back to my room but that will just make me a coward and give them enough room to trash me anyhow. I am not ready to stand that low again and watch them step on me like nobody.　　"Rhea," his deep scary voice echoed through the room but still I remained rooted to my spot.　　"I advise you to go there and sit down and besides I am sure that no one wants to eat cold food as breakfast," his gaze widened at my words.　　Maintaining my expressionless face, I noticed his orbs brimmed with ridicule and his like twitched slightly, "Interesting..."　　Giving me one last glance, he angrily walked out of the room. I watched as Fiona snarled before walking away.　　Shrugging my shoulders reluctantly, "Anyone else that wants to leave," I glanced at their confused and surprised faces and just th

　　Rhea's POV　　"What do you mean? To change a Beta," confusion laced through his voice.　　Retaining my frosty look, I uttered, "I no longer want Lila as my beta,"　　"How?"　　"You heard me right, change her,"　　"Change her to what position exactly and then who will be your beta?" He asked, his gaze still focused on my every move.　　"I don't care about the position that you give her but the main thing is to change her and about my beta... Mercy is fit for the position,"　　"WHAT!!" My words came as a shock to him.　　Staring at me expressionlessly, "That is bullshit," he growled. "That's the highest humiliation to Lila, demoting her and having a commoner ascend her position," he disapproves instantly.　　And to be honest, his words hurt me. So right now he knew that it would be a humiliation but when he was disgracing me and tossing me around like I wasn't enough, he didn't know that it was a humiliation.　　I gulped hard, pushing back the tears that were adamant about appearing. "Then have
