Chapter 79
Ana.
As I stare at my mate, a sense of nostalgia engulfs me. We have been in this position so many times that I thought it would be enough for a lifetime.
Jace’s watery eyes softly stare at me. His unevenly beating heart is full of different emotions and I can’t help but feel pity. I want to hate him for not trying hard enough but my heart can’t even dream of doing that.
I love him so much to blame him for a mistake that was not his intention.
“Come” I stretch my right hand to him and my mate quickly stumbles to me. Jace falls to his knees in front of me and wordlessly buries his face into my lap.
I tightly hold his head when his body starts to shake and I hate that he is hurting.
“I didn’t mean it. I know I should have done something but I chose to fail you once again” he cries holding me tighter as if I will disappear on him if he isn’t careful enough.
“Stop” I murmur, gently running my fingers through his hair. There was a time when I had
my doubts about Jace. But he showed me how sincere he is and it would be unfair if I pushed him away at his lowest.
“It was not your fault, babe. If anything, I am happy you came back to me” I sincerely mumble, pressing a soft kiss on his head.
“Ana no, how can you not be mad? Please, hit me, yell at me, because I don’t deserve your kindness. I broke your heart again even after promising not to do again” My heart bleeds when I stare into my mate’s red eyes, and his breaking voice makes it worse. I feel what he is feeling and it’s nothing good. Jace is broken.
“I know what you will do to make me feel better” I whisper, using my thumbs to clear the water from his eyes. There are a lot of things that will help him retain his composure. I want the sad mood gone for a while. What matters is that he is okay and back to us. Hopefully, there are no more thirsty she-wolves after him.
“Anything, baby. I will do anything to earn your forgiveness” Jace frantically nods and I slightly smile as I peck him on the lips.
“Train me” I know my dad thought that I didn’t need training but I do. I can’t only depend on my wolf because when she is not here, I will become a laughing stock of a shi tty queen. I need to learn all the tactics there is in fighting and one able to handle a fight in both forms.
Chapter 79
“What?” My mate’s voice quivers in shock and I laugh. What was he expecting me to say?
“You are the strongest wolf I know Jace. I love you so much and I trust you too. Please train me” I repeat my plea and my mate sighs returning his head to my lap.
“Baby, you don’t have to. You know I can protect you” His muf fled voice whispers. I return my fingers in his hair and he sighs and inhales deeply afterwards. His emotions are eventually calming down and I am glad I didn’t give him a hard time. are eventually calming down a
“No Jace, you are the reason I never trained and with everything that we have been through, I believe you agree with me that I need to get on the training ground and learn how to defend myself and anyone else. Very soon I will have a huge responsibility and I can’t fail the kingdom. Many wolves lost their lives and that of their loved ones. We can’t allow it to happen again” My voice takes a serious tone, causing confusion to appear on my mate’s face.
“What do you mean?” Jace looks up at me with deeply furrowed brows.
“My dad is about to retire. You know that right? And now that he got his second mate, I know he would want to get away for a while. We are succeeding him and I hope you know leaders aren’t meant to be weak” I explain without mentioning that my
dad no
longer trusts my mate.
If Jace finds out about my dad’s plan, he will feel more dejected than he is feeling right now. It’s all the same anyway. When I am queen, my mate will automatically be king. It doesn’t matter which bloodline he came from. It’s only that unlike before, Jace won’t be Noah’s heir.
“Okay, I will. Can I please hold you?” Jace begs and I nod without hesitation. My mate gets up and instantly lifts me from the couch, keeping me close.
Jace walks us to the bed and when we lay down, he gently positions his head on my chest and shuts his eyes.

ace.
I know Ana. Ever since we were kids, Ana would always act strong, especially when I was lown. She never liked seeing me hurt and my mate would do everything to make sure I lidn’t feel that way, even when she had to hide her own hurt.
That is what Ana is doing right now. She still has her emotions locked away which neans she doesn’t want me to feel them. I can’t reach her wolf either and mine is lawing at me to reach her.

Another weird thing, Ana is willing to train which is something she used to hate. This can only mean that my mate no longer has faith in me. Who would, when I kept failing them?
She had said she would take care of our family while I handled the throne. But her wanting to go to the training field only indicates that the King no longer thinks I am capable enough of succeeding him. No wonder he was cold to me earlier.
It doesn’t matter anyway, as long as I keep holding my mate like this for the rest of my life.
Chapter 80
Ana.
“Harder, Jace” I pant out, bracing myself for the next blow. However, my mate delivers a weak punch like he has been doing for the last hour.
“Seriously, babe?” I glare, tiredly slumping on the floor and he gives me an apologetic look.
“Ana, I am sorry, but I hate hurting you” My mate whispers, as he approaches me with a bottle of water. Jace kneels in front of me and gently wipes the sweat on my face. He is behaving as if this is some cruel punishment he is forced to deliver to me. Is it so hard to just assume I am one of the wolves he used to train in our previous pack?
The so-called training started yesterday and nothing has changed. I just realized he is not the right person to train me. I take a small sip from the water when he places the bottle on my lips. I am not even thirsty. How would I be when I haven’t done anything
strenuous?
“I understand, baby” I sigh, tracing his jaw with my index finger. I don’t miss how his body slightly trembles due to my soft touch. It’s amazing how easily I affect him and I love it. “How about I ask the king’s beta’s son to train me? What was his name again?” I pretend to think and chuckle when the soft look in his eyes suddenly disappears as my mate releases a loud warning growl.
“No chance in hell. Only I will train you and no one else” My mate grabs the back of my head and I marvel at how easily he loses control just at the mention of another male wolf coming close to me. “You understand that Ana? No one is touching my mate” Jace whispers as his eyes flash black before becoming normal again.
“Then quit doing a sh it ty job and get the job done” I challenge staring into his darkening eyes. His breaths are ragged and the energy oozing from him causes my body to tingle all over.
Jace is hot. And the mate bond makes everything intense and worse.
My mind starts to wander in dark places when my mate’s hungry eyes drop to my lips. His touch suddenly becomes hot and when Jace starts leaning forward, my breathing hitches as I wait for the long-awaited contact.
My mate takes his time to admire my face. His hold on me loosens and his thumb starts to rub delicate circles on my neck as it slowly inches towards the mark he gave me. “You know I love you right?” Jace whispers, softly glancing into my eyes. I know that. I can never mistake the loving look in his eyes.
“I am not perfect baby, but never second guess what I feel for you, Ana. It doesn’t matter

how deep the dark world swallows me, because I will always find my way to you. No matter what happens to me, I want you to know that my heart still sk ips when I see you. Promise me one thing” Jace whispers bringing me close to his face. There is completely no space between us. I can feel his heavy and quick breath on my face and it’s making me yearn for his addictive touch.
“What?” I whisper back, almost in a trance.
“Promise you will never give up on me, baby. You are the only person I can’t lose in this life. Promise”
“You know I will never Jace, I love you so much” I sincerely mumble and my mate sighs. offering me a slight smile which I return.
“Can I please kiss you?” Jace asks and I nervously nod.
We haven’t done anything since he recovered and everything has been tense between us. However, the universe proves to be against us when our little boy barges into the training room and his eyes immediately find mine.
“Mommy” Liam rushes to us and when he sees his dad’s hands on me, I don’t know what crosses his mind because he scowls at Jace and starts to push him away. Way to ruin a moment Liam.
“Let go” Our son frowns and we both chuckle separating from each other. As if that is not enough, Liam lunges at his father in a fight in the name of protecting his mommy. I longingly stare at the laughing souls brawling on the floor and my heart swells with immense joy.
They all are my life.
“Mommy, did you see?” My son happily exclaims when Jace allows him to pin him on the floor. “I am stronger than Daddy” Liam happily giggles, as his eyes sparkle with pride. He will be a proud man.
“Yes, baby. You are the strongest boy I have ever met” I coo, picking him up mate’s body.
from my
“Are you two ganging up on me?” Jace playfully acts hurt and I wink at him and curiously look back at my son. I told my dad to watch him and he wouldn’t be down here without a reason.
“Are you hungry? What did Grandpa say?” Liam’s happy movements instantly stop as he only stares at me with innocent eyes. I guess this only means he forgot.
‘Do you need anything, ‘dad?’ I try mind linking Noah but it doesn’t go through. I will just manually look for him.

“I will be back Jace, let me just take Liam back to my dad” I face my mate and he nods kissing Liam’s cheek.
“Put this on” Jace hands me his shirt and I laugh, reluctantly putting it on. I am in the workout clothes which are quite revealing for Jace’s preference.
The first place I decide to look for my dad is his study. When I miss him there, I figure he would be in his room so I just walk there with my little boy in my hold.
I should have knocked or just minded my own business because the sight I walk into, will forever bruise my mind.
A shirtless Noah is pinning a naked woman on the wall and the room is filled with a gross scent of their arousal.
F u ck.
I quickly shut the door and run with my confused boy back to his room.
Goddess! I should be careful now that he is mated. I need to avoid his room and office
at all costs.
However, Liam’s door opens and a disheveled Noah slowly walks. Unlike earlier, he is dressed and I sigh in relief and silently watch him. Should I apologize for ruining his
moment?
“Baby, I am sorry..I..” Noah breaks the chain of my thoughts when he talks first.
“No. I should have knocked, Dad. It won’t happen again” I quickly cut him short and he sighs sitting beside Liam and me.
“I am conflicted. A part of me wants to reject her and another part wants me to give this a shot. Maya never wanted me because, to her, I was not worthy. Thank you for showing up to stop us. I need time to observe her and I will only acknowledge her as my mate when you take over the throne, to avoid another power-hungry woman trying to disrupt the peaceful kingdom”
“Is that how you see me?” The woman my dad was with walks through the door and we share worried glances with Noah.
Busted.

Ana.
“Is that what you think of me? I thought we were on the same page, Noah. I might have been quite pushy but you had the right to say no, instead of talking sh it behind my back” The woman angrily yells but the hurt and pain in his eyes don’t go unnoticed.
I
“Watch your language in front of my kids” Dad strictly reprimands and I figure it’s time
gave them their privacy. So, picking up my son once again, I quickly exit the room and tune out the loud voices behind me.
Lucky for me, I have two fathers so after leaving Liam in Alpha Edward’s care, I rush back to the training room.
Who could have thought I would find my mate training with Leo? Unlike with me, Jace is relentless. He is hitting his brother as if Leo is a da mn punching bag. Why can’t he be this way with me? It’s not like I am a delicate doll that is going to break if he hits harder.
“Urgh” Leo groans when his body hits the ground and I chuckle taking his place. My mate hesitates but when I remind him of someone else training me through the mind link, Jace becomes serious and resumes the hard punches and kicks like he did with Leo.
“Wow! I underestimated you” My mate mumbles placing a delicate kiss on my head. “You did so well” Jace gently smiles as he adorably stares down at me. We’ve been at it and I gave it my all. Blocking every punch and kick and sending him mine as hard as I could. I must say, it’s not as boring as I thought.
“Told you” I try pushing his sweaty body from mine but he tightens his grip around me.” So, will I get a reward or something?” I suggestively whisper and he chuckles, rubbing his nose with mine.
“You just have to ask politely and I will deliver” My mate smirks and I can feel myself blushing like crazy.
“Do you have to flirt in my presence?” The forgotten person in the room reminds us of his presence but my mate doesn’t move an inch. I don’t know if they made up but I can tell Jace is still not Leo’s fan at all.
“I didn’t realize you were still here Leonardo,” Jace says without averting his attention from my face.
“You don’t have to be rude you know” Leo mumbles and my mate snorts as if it should be obvious he doesn’t like his brother.
“I just don’t like you” Jace rudely whispers, and I decide to chime in.

“I will take you. Give me your all” I hastly move from my mate’s arms surprising both of them. Leo must be desperate to be here and I can tell he is trying to amend his ways. We both need training so why not spar with him?
“No, Ana. You are not going close to him” Jace snaps and I sigh shaking my head. He is now overreacting. “I will do it” He pushes me behind him and takes my place.
“Okay, Alpha” I mumble, slowly exiting the room. If they want to kill each other they can go ahead.
“So, how did it go?” I ask my dad at the breakfast table. I didn’t realize how hungry I was until the aroma of sweet coffee hit my nostrils. It’s also because of the much-used energy I have used in that room.
“She left” Noah nonchalantly answers and I pause the toast on my lips which I was just about to munch on.
“I think you are being hard on her for nothing. She is not mum, dad. And the fact that Goddess chose her for you means she is worthy. Don’t be one of those who betray the mate bond like that. It hurts Dad” I disapprovingly whisper because I wouldn’t want anyone to experience that.
“You think I don’t know that? The woman I loved for years stabbed me in the back and left me for the dead. So I am sorry if choose to guard my heart and don’t end up half dead in an abandoned stinky cell” Noah angrily grits out and I look away feeling guilty. I almost forgot my mother betrayed him too.
“Let’s just have breakfast, Dad. You know I will support your every decision right? I will always be on your side” I reach for his fisted hand on the table and ease the pressure. He knows better and I should just mind my own business rather than try to tell him what to do and what not to do.
When he calms down, I offer a small smile which he returns with a sigh.
The breakfast is eaten in silence. Despite all the people living in his house, Noah only makes food for three people. Himself, Liam, and I. I wonder when he will start favoring my mate again.
“I signed you up in the royal school. You will learn what you need to know there. From how to be a leader to fighting skills” Dad breaks the silence and I nod before remembering my mate.
“Can Jace come?*
“Sure, he can

him about their stay here.

“There is one thing you don’t know about me, honey. I don’t forgive. Each time I see those people in my house, the urge to strangle them overwhelms me. I am only keeping them here because they are your mate’s family. When the old wolf is completely healed, I want them out of my pack. They can choose any other pack they want as long they are not sharing the same air I am breathing” The previous unclenched fist tightly clenches again and Noah noisily slams his fork on the table.
It appears as if my conversation this morning is not in his favor. I would be mad too. If someone challenged me for the throne and took my mate for themselves. I completely understand Dad’s sour mood towards Andrew. He took mum from him and together they faked her death. All the time my dad had been mourning for his dead mate, she was happily enjoying life with her lover.
Then when he finds out that she is alive, they stab him in the back and plot his death. Andrew might have a good heart but my father will always consider him as the man who replaced him.
“I will let them know” I whisper, slowly placing my fork on the table. I think he needs time for himself. “I will go check on Liam”
“Baby, I am sorry” Noah quickly takes my hand and deeply sighs. “I am sorry for shouting at you. You are the last person I want to upset Gia, I didn’t mean to yell, Okay?”
“Trust me, I know. I think you need a long run to ease the pent-up anger” I chuckle improving the mood and he follows suit.
“You are right, I will be out for a while” Noah kisses my head and takes the back door

Chapter 65

Ana.

Ohl Goddess, If someone told me this is how my future would turn out to be, I would have laughed in their faces. This is not the world we had in mind at all. Jace and I had dreamt of a happy future.

I am tired of constant pain and heartbreaks. The bitter part is that I can’t let my distress show with my son here. My mood affects Liam too.

“Give Kyle a minute, sweetheart, we are going for him after taking a break,” Alpha says and I nod taking off the bloody gloves. I need a break.

Walking out through the back door, I lean on a tree and look up at the moon. What is her plan? What does she think when she looks down at all the injured men scattered outside?

Why let one devious woman ruin her beautiful creations?

Will she allow Liam’s dad to be taken away from him too? Haven’t we suffered enough?

“I scented your tears” I look in front of me to see Noah approaching me. Instead of holding back, I cover my mouth with my palm and allow myself to break down. I don’t have to act strong in the middle of the night anymore.

“I know, baby, I will make everything right” My dad holds my cheek and remorsefully stares into my tired eyes. Noah silently kisses my head and pulls me into his arms.” Go have some rest, I will order Leo to bring your mate back. He can’t resist my command, no matter what” He gently rubs my back and I sigh inhaling his scent.

“I want you to train me, Dad. I will fight beside you when the time comes” My dad chuckles pulling away and he slowly wipes my tears.

“I thought you hated being ‘sweaty and sticky” He quotes my words and I laugh when I remember how naive I was. Everything changed when they took my dad. That’s when I realized this world is not for the weak, and we can’t always depend on others for protection.

“I can’t lose you again, Dad. Not Liam or Jace” I lowly whisper.

“I know, you will not lose anyone else. I can feel my wolf now, and when I get my strength back, I am going to the palace and giving everyone the justice they deserve” Noah utters in determination and I shake my head.

“You know it won’t be easy right? Leo said she has an army of trained rogues and witches”

“We just have to end the leader and everyone else will retreat. Leave that to me. honey. Go have some rest. Your mate will be here when you wake up” I nod at my dad’s words and walk to the room my son is sleeping in.

I trust my father.

Laying beside my son, I try to ignore the uneasiness in my heart but it’s futile. I hold Liam tight to myself and bury my nose in his hair. His scent helps me sleep.

True to my dad’s words, when I wake up. I find Jace in the bed next to me. My mate is not sleeping but gently staring down at me. His eyes are red like he has been crying, and that’s when I feel it.

His distress, pain, and heartbreak, from the matebond.

“Babe?” I quickly sit up and I am face-to-face with him. Without a word, Jace grabs my head and kisses me. Unlike the other times when we kiss, this kiss is too soft and careful. His heartbeat is wild and the scent of his tears makes me pull

away.

“What’s wrong?” I tuck away the hair sticking on his forehead and he sighs licking his lips.

“I love you. No matter what happens, know that I love you with my life, Ana He softly stares at me and gently presses his lips on my forehead.

Jace, you are scaring me. Tell me what is happening? I get up from the bed and my eyes widen when I see the blood on his clothes. How did I miss it? It’s Jace’s but it smells familiar.

What happened to them?” My voice quivers and I feel my knees weakening She can’t keep doing this.

No.

“Come with me’ My mate takes my hand and leads me out of the room. The more steps we take, the more dread I feel. My shaky hands tightly grip his and I try as much as I can not to cry.

Outside, among the wolves who are still being attended to by my dad and Kyle Alpha Edward, Leo, and his witch are crouching beside one person and that’s where the strong scent of blood is coming from.

I untangle myself from Jace’s hold, run the remaining distance, and fall on my knees in front of Chase. The tears I have been holding heavily roll down blurring my sight.

“No Chase.” I whisper cradling his head on my lap. We can save him, right Please do something I face Alpha, ignoring Chase’s torn jugular. His head is barely hanging on his neck and there is blood everywhere. His blood.

He can’t be dead.

“Chase, you need to wake up. What should I tell Liam? You two are friends, I continuously tap his cheek but he doesn’t make a move Goddess no

Ana, baby. He is gone Jace’s father mutters prying me from my friends ead body. He was our childhood friend Chase had a full life in front of him out ther butch didn’t care. What is her deal anyway?

LOVE ME AGAIN MATE

“Come here” Alpha pulls me into a hug and I tightly clutch onto him. Everything was fine until Jace came back from that Alpha training. “Everything will be okay” He whispers running his fingers through my hair and I sniffle controlling my

tears.

What if I just go to the royal pack and kill that bitch in her sleep. Maybe I don’t need to train anymore. The more time we waste the more we invite more deaths. This could have been my son. If we didn’t get Liam first she would have killed him.

“Where is El?” I pull away and look around.

“Your dad is taking care of him. He will survive” Alpha Edward says and I nod wiping my tears.

“What is your plan?” I look at the people around me and Jace sighs dragging his palms on his face.

“We are going for Andrew. He was the one who helped me pull Chase and El out but the queen caught him red-handed. I don’t know what is happening right now, but it can’t be good. The time for war has come, Ana” My mate announces and only then, do I understand his earlier words.

Its time.

Chapter 67

Jace.

[Warning! This chapter contains mature content, skip it if it’s uncomfortable for you.]

“I love you so much, baby” I pull away and rub my thumb on her swollen lips. Her breaths are quick and labored. I love her with everything in me. I am not just saying it to make her happy, I mean my every word. Slightly tilting her head, I slowly run my nose on the pulse on her neck, taking in her alluring scent.

My wolf growls approvingly and immediately comes forward. I don’t push him back, I want him present when we reclaim our mate.

I dip my nose on her mark and gently lick on it. Ana softly moans, trembling in my arms. Her warm breath on my neck just adds to my arousal. I bite and nibble on her soft skin leaving hickeys where my lips touch.

She is so hot.

Trailing my lips down her neck, I lowly growl tearing her top open when it obstructs me from her delicious body.

“You are beautiful” I whisper, taking in her upper body. My wolf is actively present and hers too, from how her eyes keep changing from green to black.

Her skin is soft and I admire how firm her breasts are. Gently cupping her tits, I give them a soft squeeze before running my thumps on her erect pink nipples. My mate shivers as her body leans forward, helplessly falling into me.

“Does it feel good?” I whisper pinching both of her nipples and it renders her weak. I gently lay my mate on the grass and carefully lay on top of her. I can’t afford crushing her petite body with mine.

“I love you” I kiss Ana’s forehead, then her nose, and finally on her lips. “I will always be here baby, no matter what happens, I won’t let myself be taken away from you” I hold her cheeks and stroke them lightly.

“I love you too, Jace” Her lustful eyes longingly stare at me and my eyes land on the tattoo above her breast. Lowering my head, I gently press my lips on it before moving towards her inviting right nipple. They are incredibly hot.

My hands roam over her sexy body, feeling her skin, and ass while she responds with the same fervor, snaking her legs around mine and moaning with pleasure. After licking, massaging, and worshipping her tits, I leave them more hard and wet. I trail my lips down her body, kissing and licking as I go lower. My baby opens her legs for me when I reach her belly button, almost like she is inviting me and I growl at her intoxicating scent. I tear the barrier between us, leaving her bare and panting before me.

I am so hard. My pants are straining against my tensed cock but today is about my

mate. I want her to feel every inch of my love. I won’t let my mate doubt me again even if it means doing this daily.

“Never doubt my love for you, baby” I hold her thighs and carefully widen them more. My mate shivers when I deep my nose between her swollen soaking folds. and deeply inhale. “Beautiful” I murmur, gently running my tongue along her folds. I will never get enough of this. “You are mine, Ana”

“Goddess” Ana whimpers lifting her waist toward my face. My lips gently gently lick up and down the valley between the lips of her pussy. “You are so sweet, Ana. All mine” I growl, almost losing control to my wolf.

She tastes divine. Fresh and sexy.

I eat out my mate with great hunger and ferocity. Her sexy body keeps writhing as she moans for me in encouragement. Today I am not fingering her. I am saving that to my almost-bursting dick.

“Jace, I am so close” Ana cries and I quickly pull away. Hovering over her body once more, I gently press my lips on her, letting her taste herself.

“Not yet, sweetheart. I want us to do it together” I mumble kissing her forehead. Ana starts fumbling with my clothes and I let her take them off. However, when they appear stubborn to her, My mate rips my clothes off with one swift motion. I lean back with a low chuckle and remove the useless pieces from

my body. My mate appreciatively takes in every inch of me until her hungry eyes land on my hard cork. Ana licks her lips and brings her hand forth to touch it but I quickly hold it.

“Let me pleasure you too, Jace” Her eyes are like dark pits as they stare at me. “Today is about you, baby. We have all of our lives for you to do that. But now” I gently push her back down and she complies. “Open your legs for me, and let me make love to you” I instruct her and she does just that. Ana opens her legs wider and my wolf growls appreciating the intoxicating view.

Her scent is strong and inviting. Tonight, however, I must not lose control to my wolf. With that, I lean forward and guide the head of my cock to my mate’s waiting opening. Ana gasps loudly as I enter her, followed by satisfied groans from the both of us.

“Goddess, Jace” She whispers, arching her back in pleasure. Fuck! She is beautiful. My eyes remain on my dazed beautiful mate. I love her.

“I love you” I softly press my lips on hers and start to move so slowly in her warm and tight folds. Goddess!, I will never get enough of her. As I sink deeper, her walls clamp down on my cock, sucking me in. The pleasure makes me groan and deepen the kiss. This is the best experience I have ever encountered in my life.

“It feels so good, Jace” She moans out arching her back more when I pull away from the kiss.

“Look in my eyes, baby” I nibble on her lower lip and press my forehead on hers.

Ana struggles but eventually, her unwavering gaze remains on mine. Lacing her fingers with mine, I slowly move in and out of her, making sure my cock touches every sweet spot in her.

I return my lips to my mate’s and my hand lowers back to her nipple and gently massage it. Our moans are mixed in our mouths as I slowly increase the tempo of my thrusts.

She is beautiful.

“More Jace, give me more” My mate pants out and I give her just that. I pick up my pace as I move inside her more aggressively. “Yes, like that” She throws her head backwards and calls out my name.

I take advantage of the tilted neck and lick on her mark and that sends Ana to another level of pleasure. Her body violently shake and her pussy clench around

“Goddess Jace, I am close” When she moans out, I snake my hand between us until I reach her clit. I rub the sensitive spot and gently suck on her Mark. She is close I can feel it. With a deep thrust, I elongate my canines and bury them in the mark on her neck and that does it.

With a loud cry, my mate tightly clenches around me milking me so hard and I groan letting myself go. I ride her through her orgasm and when her body stops. quivering, she relaxes in my arms and lazily opens her eyes to look at me. “I love you” She breathlessly whispers closing her eyes.

Authors note;

Tomorrow we are going to war. Brace up.

Queen verses King.

Thank you for reading.Chapter 68
Jace.
Today is the day we are going back to the royal pack. Most men have woken up but their wolves are still weak. We don’t have enough backup but the King believes if he comes out, some of his loyal people will join him.
We are being optimistic here because we don’t have any other choice. We can’t give Maya any more time to hurt the innocent people.
As we had agreed, Leo is already here with his witch. My dad managed to convince a few warriors from our pack that the King was alive and he needed their help. My main worry is how we are going to fight against a hundred powerful witches.
It’s risky, that’s why I am not letting my mate near the war. I talked to Noah and he was able to convince her to stay behind with Liam and the injured men. At least if I don’t make it, Liam will have his mother to raise him.
As if she read my thoughts, Ana tightly holds my arm and leans her head on my chest. After our intimacy, she has been constantly clinging to me. It’s a relief because she no longer doubts me.
“It’s time, baby” I whisper looking behind us at the already assembled men.
“You promised you would always be back to us right?” Her sad eyes have unshed tears and the thought of ending up like Chase breaks my heart. I can’t imagine what she would go through if that happened, my son too.
“Of course, sweetheart, I will always come back to you” I gently run my thumb on her cheek. I need to fight hard. I need to find my way back to them even if I have to go through death.

Jace. We are leaving Leo yells, and I nod looking back at my whimpering mate. Goddess! It’s hard seeing her this and not holding her.
“I love you” I quickly peck her cheek, and turn around to avoid looking into her teary eyes. F uck! It feels like a goodbye.
Protect them for me, please. Goddess.
I hastily walk back to the house where my son is still sleeping Placing a lingering kiss on his forehead, I softly ruffle his hair and deeply inhale his scent.
“Take care of your mommy, son. Always” I whisper, caressing his check. I don’t know what to feel at this point. May the
universe favor us.
Ana is crying in her dad’s arms when I go back out and I try my best not to look at her. The scent of her tears is thick in the air and I can tell my dad is affected too. He keeps clenching and unclenching his fists with a locked jaw.
Everyone knows this is a suicide mission but it’s the right thing to do.
Let’s go.” Noah nods at the witch and after chanting her spell, we are teleported to the southern border of the packhouse. We left Kyle behind just in case something unpredictable happened when we were here.
I have weapons in my house. Every kind, from lethal to less harmful. We can’t fight the witches in our wolves’ form. They hould be our priority, and after we eliminate them, her backup will lessen making it easy to take care of the wolves. If you may please, get us in the basement of my house” Once again, we are teleported to the King’s basement at his order and 1 narvel at his enormous collection of weapons.
Wow!” Leo whispers, eagerly looking around and I internally scoff. He once wanted to overthrow the King yet he can’t even ight. I assumed he had a warehouse full of weapons to protect himself with. I still wonder what his condition is.
Choose any weapons of your preference and let’s get out of here” Noah’s voice brings my mind back to work and I start hoosing everything that will help me stay alive.
Maya keeps moving from one point to anothel a5 3000
“Why aren’t they coming? I haven’t had a rest since yesterday, does this mean they don’t give a f uck about you?” She furiously yells at the tied-up Andrew.
Right now, they are in the royal courtroom. Among the present is the corrupt council and her group of witches. She had started to suspect Andrew from the day she killed his mate. He tried to hide his feelings for Nia but she could read through his canotions. She knew Andrew was up to something and when she caught him red-handed the other day helping Jace escape, it was her chance to finally get rid of him.
But she has a bigger problem. All the prisoners who used to work for Noah are missing and to make matters worse, a large supply of medicines from the Royal Pack Hospital was stolen.
This is not how she had planned everything. Noah is alive and she needs to get him before the Werewolf kingdom learns he never died. That will cause great trouble for her. So, the only way to find Noah’s location is through Jare, and she believes since the sons know their father is in trouble, they won’t hesitate to save him.
“Can’t any of you st upid witches track where these Idiots are?” She faces the women who have their heads lowered, “Goddess! Why is everyone around me so useless? The council members are just a bunch of st upid old wolves, all of my guards are incompetent fools, these b itchy witches are just here to leach on my money and the idiot of my chosen King just betrayed me” She screams in frustration as her claws elongate. Her shaking body turns to fur and her eyes darken.
Unexpectedly, she grabs one of the witch’s head and instantly snap it. “Get out and bring Noah to me or all of you are dead” She commands and the women disappear from the room leaving their dead friend behind. Maya angrily huffs, mindlessly throwing the dead body on the floor,
“You are so pathetic’ Andrew weakly chuckles without lifting his head to look at her. Crazy Maya tied him to the King’s seat and had him beaten senseless.
“We will see about that when I drop the heads of your two b astards in front of you” She laughs swiping her sharp claws on Andrew’s face, leaving a huge deep cut.
“I should have killed your crazy a ss when I had a chance” He whispers in regret, attempting to lift his bleeding head but he has no strength to do that.
“Great idea” Maya tightly holds his cheeks allowing her claws to pierce through his flesh. “I should send you to hell when I still have a chance With that said, she draws her sword and lifts it mid-air with the intent of ending him, but just before it can touch his skin, a poisonous dagger from nowhere penetrates through her hand and she drops the sword with a painful

“What the hell?” The woman shrieks, cradling her bleeding arm and frantically looking around the courtroom.”Why are you idiots still sitting there, get the hell out and find the intruders” She snaps at the council members and they fearfully scamper out one after the other.
“F uck” She growls kicking Andrew’s leg without realizing the incoming presence behind her.
“Hello, Mate” The sound of the bariton voice behind her draws all the blood in her system. Slowly, turning around, she is met with the sight of a healthy Noah, and his men behind him. “Happy to see me?” Noah smirks at her horrid face, and his eyes darken when he looks at the injured man staining his throne seat.
Leo takes that chance to untie his father and instructs the witch to get him to safety.
“You are supposed to be dead” She whispers eyeing the people behind him, and her eyes dangerously glares at Jace and Leo.
I can’t go down this easily. Hell, I am not going down, ever. Maya thinks, mind linking her guards to join her. Instantly, her body shifts and pounces at Noah who immediately does the same.
Alarms go through the Kingdom and everyone becomes alert. The news about the return of the King travels all over, and it’s welcomed positively regarding how Maya has been treating them since the day she showed up.
All the wolves emerge from the confines of their homes to help their King fight for their long-lost freedom.
They say one will never know the importance of something until that thing is taken away from them. The wolves thought Noah was ruthless during his reign until Maya showed up and showed them what ruthless meant.
In the blink of an eye, the once-silent Kingdom is filled with cries of war.
After the shift, Noah’s wolf leaps through the door and bolts outside. Everyone follows, half of them in wolf forms, and the rest remain in human form carrying their weapons in hand.
Noah comes to a stumbling stop at the battle field and Maya’s wolf softly lands in front of him. In contrast to Noah’s midnight dark fur, Maya’s has white patches that make her outstanding.
The two mated wolves show reluctance in attacking each other but their human urge of blood and power pushes them beyond their limits. Maya’s wolf slowly backs away and drops low on the ground.
Her dark eyes dangerously size her mate who happens to be her prey, as she viciously growls and begins circling him, carefully examining Noah. Noah’s huge dark wolf does the same. At this point, he tries hard to block her alluring scent from poisoning his mind again. He was fooled once, and he won’t allow the mate bond to distract him today.
As if in sync, the two wolves, instantly leap in the air, attacking each other. They both go for each other’s necks causing them to clash back on the dusty ground with a heavy thud. The dark wolf throws his opponent on her back and goes for her neck again, but she swiftly kicks his stomach with her powerful front paws and pushes him away from her.
They once again circle each other with low growls. With great agility, Maya leaps on Noah’s back and instantly bites a huge chunk of flesh from his shoulder. Noah vigorously shakes her from his body only for her to tighten her grip on his flesh. He turns his neck and catches her right paw between his sharp canines and she growls letting him go.
“Taking the little chance to his advantage, Noah flips her on her back and ruthlessly bites her underbelly drawing blood. As Maya struggles to throw Noah on his back, he quickly goes for her neck and tightly clamps on it causing Maya to howl in pain.
Her painful howl reaches the ears of her ser vants who are being stopped by Noah’s men from interfering with the fight. One of the witches though, uses her powers to separate Noah’s body from Maya and sends him flying in the air before harshly hitting his body on a tree.
Noah falls with a painful growl and his body instantly shifts back to human due to the immense pain. Still collecting himself,

a laughing Maya approaches him with a shining sword in her hand.
“Hello, mate” She sweetly whispers, placing the sharp point of the dagger on Noah’s chin.”Happy to see me?” She asks with a soft chuckle.
He is right where she wanted him to be, or so she thinks.
Yes, Very happy” The man whispers and swiftly swipes her feet off the floor and she falls backward with a groan. Noah instantly holds her in a chokehold and lifts her from the ground and slams her body on the nearest tree so hard that it
breaks.
The witch once again uses her magic to pull Noah from Maya and holds him in an invisible chokehold mid-air, giving Maya a chance to regain her energy. With a chuckle, Maya gets on her feet and picks up her dagger.

“You underestimated me, Noah. This is my game, and I plan on winning either way. I will play dirty until every pathetic wolf in this kingdom bows to me. I will bend them to my every will and kill anything that challenges my rule” With a glance at the witch, she releases Noah and he falls back on the ground.
He can’t lose. He has to protect his princess. He promised her.
With that thought in mind, he mindlinks Jace to take care of the witch while he finishes the bi tch.
“Oh! I almost thought you were the goddess. Don’t be overconfident Maya, our creator is still watching He mumbles eyeing the sword. He will only need one swipe, and her head will be detached.
“Well, the world favors the strong, weak peasants add no value to nature” She chuckles, circling him. The blade is tight in her grasp while her sharp eyes are on her prey. Hold him” She yells and the witch repeats her earlier spell and Noah is helplessly pinned down on the floor.
He can’t move nor talk, his hands and legs are spread apart while the unknown force pins him down.
Maya’s eyes sparkle as she watches his defenseless form. Tam goua enjoy separating every limb from your body. Then 1 will behead you and moan over my mate’s death for a week. Don’t worry though, I will do good and send our daughter to you so you won’t die of boredom in hell” She laughs lowering her sword on Noah’s right shoulder.
Tightly pressing it on his skin, she slices through the flesh, dragging the blade towards his abdomen and leaving a gush of blood in its trail.
“Oh! I love watching this” She muses as she continues with her wicked administration.
I am sure you do A soft voice mumbles in her car and when she turns around, it’s too late to scream.

I can’t keep calm. My emotions are all over the place and my wolf is on edge. Now and then, my skin turns to fur as my elongate. Does this mean they are in danger?
Of course they are, they went into a den of notorious lions outnumbered.
“I trust your father, princess” Fred utters in consolation but I laugh at his words.
claws
“My father is just a wolf, like any other, his title doesn’t make him invincible and I can’t let him get hurt. Also, how do you expect me to explain to Liam when his dad doesn’t come back to us?”Speaking of Liam, Kyle is keeping him busy with the many toys he brought from the pack house earlier.
“All of you can’t leave him too, you know, he needs a familiar face around here” I nod staring out of the window. Most of the men are already awake but their wolves are still docile.
However, my thoughts are cut short when I feel a scaring pain in my abdomen. “Mate” My wolf growls and completely takes control. Half shifting into my beast. I dash towards the forest like a blur. My movements are snappy and agile in the thick woods, and the only thing running in my mind is my mate.
My senses heighten and my cars perk up when I hear groans of pain and struggle. Sounds of painful howls are all over and that enhances my strength. The scent of wolfsbane, blood, and silver is also prominent, causing the air to smell putrid. However, a strong smell of blood hits my nose seizing my attention, it’s not just any blood. It’s my father’s blood.
With a loud growl, I leap in the air and softly land on the battleground right where my parents are fighting. A witch is holding my dad on the ground while my mam mocks and slices his body.
Caught off-guard. I swipe my sharp claws on the witch’s neck rupturing her jugular. My bi tchy mother is too occupied to notice a presence behind her..
“Oh! I love watching this,” She mocks slashing my father’s body and it gets me so mad.
“I am sure you do” I mumble, and when she turns around, I dig my claws into the flesh of her neck. Her pale face fearfully stares into my black eyes and I watch her with nothing but hate. My wolf doesn’t even hesitate when I ampute the hand holding the sword and tossing it away.
Her painful scream fills the battlefield and the fighting ceases. “How dare you touch my father” My voice is deep and menacing like thunder. I throw the b itch on the floor and she screeches when I pick up her dagger.
Werewolves don’t re-grow their org ans. The wound might heal but the hand won’t regrow. You killed Chase, blew us up in that building, you tortured innocents. You don’t deserve an easy death, bi tch” 1 pick her up by her neck like she weighs nothing.
Everyone is silently watching. I don’t know who her people here are but no one is fighting anymore. Instead, they pave the way for me as I drug the pathetic bi tch to the crosses she made with her own hands.
It’s time for her to taste her own medicine.
“Bring me wolfsbane, Dad, and silver and every poison that will harm this b itch” I don’t turn around to look at Noah, giving him the needed privacy to find clothes. We are wolves but he is still my father.
To my utter amazement, the b itch in my grasp hasn’t stopped talking even for a second. Kill them, Idiots. Why are you staring at me like that? I swear, I will kill all of you” She keeps yelling and I darkly chuckle.
I won’t tell her to shut up. She will do it by herself when the pain worsens. Her wound is already healing that’s why she is so loud.
When we reach the crosses, I am surprised to find them full of wolves despite us rescuing hundreds of men just the other day.

Chapter 70
“Bring them down, now” I yell and a couple of soldiers rush to rescue the injured wolves. I take the silver ropes and tie them all around her body as I ignore how harshly they burn my skin. She needs to go at all costs.
After tying her up. I grab the bottle of wolfsbane and syringe from my dad and inject a lot of it into her system. Maya keeps thrashing and screaming and to shut her up, I pour the remaining dose in her mouth and hold her mouth and nose until she forcefully swallows the poison.
Tie her up” The guards quickly bring her up the cross. The look in her eyes hasn’t changed one bit. She keeps glaring from me to Dad with loathing but I don’t care, she must die at all costs. However, our moment of victory is short-lived when two witches wake up from their unconscious states.
Their first action is to release Maya from the ropes. At the same time, pain strikes at my mid-rib rendering me speechless. My mate. They are using my mate to get me.
“Find Jace, Dad” I breathlessly mumble eyeing, Maya. We can’t let her be rescued. We will be her sl aves forever. I ignore my mate’s pain and lift her by her hair. With her sword, I place it around her throat, and I am about to swipe it across her neck when the witch lands in front of me with a dagger pressed on my mate’s neck the same way.
“An Eye for an Eye” The witch stares at me with a victorious smile on her face. The other witch is holding everyone in place including my father. They cant move or fight.
Iglance at my mate’s drop eyes and my heart breaks.

The witch will kill Jace even when I let this woman go. I look into his eyes again and opt for the midlink. I don’t know what they did to him but he looks bl oody and weak.
“Baby, fight I beg him. Our little boy is alone and waiting for us, babe. Just one more fight and we will go on that vacation. You promised me, remember?”
“Makr up your mind, Ana. Your mother or your mate” The witch sneers and I ignore her when my mate’s eyes show the slightest determination.
“You are strong, honey, I trust you’ Jace slightly nods and that’s the go-ahead I needed. Moving with speed, he takes the chance of the distracted witch and turns the blade from his neck to her stomach. Jace repeats the action before tiredly, slumping down on the ground.
“Goodbye, Mother’ 1 mumble slitting the queens throat, and aming the blade to the witch holding the wolves with her magic afterwards. With a shriek, the witch shumps down, and the relieved wolf takes their anger on her.
I quickly rush to my mate and lift him from the ground. “You did well, baby. I love you” With him in my arms, I ran to the pack hospital and lay him on one of the beds. I quickly change back to my human form and wear one of the doctor’s coats.
There is no one here, not even one doctor or patients. Jace coughs out blood and I quickly mindlink Noah to send in a doctor but his reply is worse. The queen killed them all when the medical supplies went missing. St upid b itch.
“Hold on, baby” I mutter getting out from the ward and rush to the storage room. We have been taking care of the injured wolves and at least now I have a clue on what to do. I gather everything I will need for the wounds and his contaminated blood but stop midway.
My wolf growls in discomfort and a deep pain occurs in my chest, the same pain I felt when that woman tried to mark my mate. This make rush back to my mate only to find a disgusting scene going on. The previous calm Jace is now all sweaty and panting for air. On top of him is a naked b itch trying to bury his erect d ick into herself.
F uck me! Before I can tear her apart, someone else beats me to it.
“I am so tired of these desperate bit ches Jace’s father appears in the doorway and angrily walks to the pair. Ripping Lily from my mate’s body, he hits her head repeatedly on the tiled floor until her head starts bleeding. Despite her painful screams and grunts, our father doesn’t stop until she is limp on the ground with her brains splattered all over.
I take in deep breathes to calm my wolf and my erratic beating heart.It almost happened. Thank you, Goddess.
“I smelled her earlier and saw her eyeing my son. I knew she had bad intentions, especially with the smell of that drug on her” He points down at the syringe and a bottle lying on the floor next to Jace’s bed.
“This is the same drug my mate drugged Andrew with when she conceived Jace. It’s a heat-inducing drug for females and it makes men lose control” My eyes remain on Jace. He is still fighting for air with his hands tightly clutching the sheets, his eyes are firmly shut while his manhood is standing erect. It’s so hard and veiny than I have ever seen him before. It looks painful and as if it’s going to burst.
“What should we do?” I point at Jace and pur dad quickly gets on his feet.
“Cover him up and start with the wounds, I will go look for the antidote.” I nod advancing to him and when I touch his skin, he groans leaning into me. His skin is scalding hot and sweat is trickling from his body like water.
“It’s… hot, baby. Help… me Jace writhes in discomfort coughing out blood. Is that bitch insane? Shouldn’t she at least care he is sick before wanting to do whatever with him? I quickly mix the drugs and inject them into him.
Covering him up as Dad had mentioned, my mate growls in discomfort as if the sheets are burning him. “Ana…Please” his hand finds mine and tightly grip it.

Chapter 71
I have never encountered something like this before. I only thought it happened with humans.
“Dad is bringing help. I can’t touch you. Jare, you are sick I mutter combing my lingers through his hair. My mate slightly opens his eyes and stares at me. His eyes are bl oody red. Things would have been easy if his wolf had been present.
“Sorry, I am sorry… Ana. Sorry for… being vulnerable… and letting her touch me 1 silently nod and release my hand in his grasp. I don’t want to imagine what would have happened if she had gone through with the assault.
“I am not mad at you, I shouldn’t have left you alone, Jace. Just close your eyes and hold it in I don’t even know what I mean by hold it in. His body is violently shaking for Goddess’s sake. Yes! cold towels.
I run to the bathroom and take all the towels to the sink. After wetting them, I arrange them on my mate’s body and he slightly sighs. Does this mean it’s helping?
“Found it” Our dad exclaims rushing in and I sigh in relief and move to give him space.
“Thank you” I sincerely murmur when he is done injecting him with the antidote.
“He is my responsibility, Ana. You and Jace will always be my babies” Dad kisses my hair and I nod blinking away tears. Will he be happy again? Will he find a second chance and have a mate who will truly love him and give him kids?
“And we will always be your kids dad, we will continue to annoy you until we grow old I softly chuckle and he joins me.
“Take care of him, I will go help the King gather the remaining traitors” I nod taking a seat beside my mate. His body is much calmer and his breath is becoming even.
“Babe?” I call trying to even his deep-furrowed eyebrows with my fingers. Jace doesn’t reply. The drug must have worn the last strength he had.
I turn around when I smell the unwanted scent before he can even reach the door.
What does he want now? I was hoping he died in that war.
“Gianna” He drawls out and 1 roll my eyes turning to my mate.

“What do you want, Leo?” I mutter without looking in his direction. Don’t tell me he is here to demand whatever he had promised. I wonder where he left his puppet.
“Aren’t you happy to see me? Considering all this went down because of my idea, I deserve an accolade, Ana” He brags and I roll my eyes.
“Yeala. How is your father?” I quickly change the topic before he asks for the impossible.
“He is well and resting. He sent me here to see how his ba stard is doing” Leo chuckles but his laugh is cut short when my wolf takes over and pins him on the wall.
Jace is not a ba stard, he has a father who will do anything for him. Don’t bother yourself checking on him because 1 won’t
anyone harm him, let alone talk s hit about my mate. I growl and the fear in his eyes satisfies my anger.

“So….sorry,” Leo struggles with the words and I let his body slump on the ground.
“If you don’t have anything else to say, get the hell out I point to the door but he doesn’t get up. Leo sits up and leans hack on the wall with a tired sigh.
“I am sorry, Ana. Everything that has happened made me realize things are not that simple. I am sorry I took advantage of your kindness, sorry for trying to hurt Liam and your mate, sorry for everything My brows furrow at the vulnerable figure who has his head down. Is this the same Leonardo or is he trying to play pitiful before he strikes?
“So, what changed your mind? You have been preparing to bring my dad down for years, what suddenly made you sorry?” I sofily churkle and walk back to my mate.
“Don’t you see, Ana Leo quickly gets up and his voice becomes harder, he is not pleading anymore “Everyone is dying. I Jost
101 mother for nothing, all my men are gone, my dad almost died, and the witch who has protected us all of our lives just died in that war” He yells in aggravation and 1 smirk.
He finally got it. This is not the human world where he is used to bossing his workers around as if they are his da mn s laves. We are not immortals. We f ucking die.
Good for you Leo, that’s some reality check for you” I mumble squeezing ny mate’s hand. His wounds are already healing. meaning his wolf is recovering.
I need a favor, Ana. I know Noah will listen to you” Leo brings my attention back to him and I nod for him to continue.
I would like to return to the pack. It doesn’t matter what pack it is but I just want to be among our kind. That is the main. eason my mum and I came up with our previous plan. Whatever plan Dad and Maya had, we had nothing to with it
Wait, is that your condition?” I stare at Leo so hard as if I can look through his brain.
Yeah. What did you think it would be? Leo asks and I shrug. Perhaps to kill everyone and have the kingdom to himself. “As nuch as you hate me, Ana, I also want a mate, have my pups and everything our kind have. Do you know how hard it is rowing up out there, in a city full of humans, we don’t shifi Ana, we don’t train our wolves and they become suppressed, ur wolves become weaker than an Omega wolf I don’t want that for my kids and there is no way I am choosing a human to ear my pups, I want a wolf and that can only happen when I am in a pack” Leo exclaims in frustration.
Okay, Leo. I heard you. I will talk to my father” If that is the case though, why did he want to separate me from my mate ist to get to the throne? They were so mean and I pray karma gets him some day when he finds his mate. I want him to feel ow I felt when he held a knife to my innocent son’s nerk.
You can leave,
will be here soon and you are the last person I want him to see I mutter through gritted teeth and I ear a sigh from him. My son trusted him, Liam loved this Idiot yet he was just playing with his little innocent feelings.
low could he? I will never forgive him.

“Go, Leo” 1 angrily cut him short. The defeated guy walks out of the room and I wonder what Dad will do with Andrew. As much as he helped Jace, he is still a traitor and a big one. Things would have been better if wasn’t sworn in and hadn’t taken Dad’s position and sat on the throne. He was Maya’s companion and partner in crime, he dug his own grave and it’s gonna swallow him.
It’s a good thing my mate already has Alpha Edward..
A soft wind passes in the room and a second later, Kyle is standing in front of me with my crying son in his arms. My dad’s beta is also with him and one of the guards.
“Moomy” Liam cries shuffling to me and for the first since this began, I laugh stretching my hands for him. “It’s over baby. It’s now us till the end of time. Nothing will separate us again” I mumble cradling his little head in my chest.
My son can finally have a normal life.
“Thank you, Kyle, I think my dad might need your help outside” I gently smile at the gentlemen and they walk away with nods. There is still commotion outside. Cries of pain from the injured wolves and the smell of blood and smoke are heavy in the air.
I don’t want to imagine what my dad is doing with the traitors.
“Daddy?” My son holds Jace’s unmoving hand and he worriedly stares at me. My son has seen things a kid his age has never seen. Liam can tell when a person is hurt and the worried look in his eyes tells me he knows his dad is hurt.
I don’t know what my son sees in my eyes because he smiles and kisses my cheek. “Don’t worry Mommy, I will give Daddy my strong” The determination in his voice makes me laugh. He will be a fighter, just like his dad.

Ans
After what feels like hours of waiting, my mate finally wakes up and my heart leaps in joy.
With a low groan, Jace frantically looks around him before his eyes settle on Lily’s dead body and he suddenly sits up. Looking alarmed.
He hasn’t looked at Liam or me yet.
Jace?” I whisper to catch his attention but his eyes don’t leave Lilly. My mate’s jaw is tightly clenched as his fists grip the
sheets
“Daddy! I gave you my strong our son happily exclaims but he doesn’t even spare him a glance, nor show a reaction towards us. This is unlike him.
“Why did you do it?” My mate grits out, his eyes still on Lily and I raise my brows in confusion. He is acting weird.
“Baby, are you okay?” I worriedly whisper taking his hand but he does something I wish Liam didn’t have to see. Jace violently Jerks away from my hold and stumbles towards the dead body, kneeling beside Lily. He looks so broken, it is as if he just lost the most important thing in his life. Like for real?
Liam and I watch in confusion as his father cradles the body to his chest. Is this really happening? Did I miss something? But he had apologized before he went unconscious and I know for sure, Jace loves me and he isn’t a cheater, so what’s wrong?
Wordlessly, Jace picks up the body and leaves the room without giving us a single glance. It’s like we are not even there. Oh! Goddess. I grit my teeth so hard to hold in my emotions. Maybe he is just taking care of it and he will be back.
“Mommy?” My son worriedly stares into my eyes and I cradle his head, hiding his face in the crook of my neck. I can’t cry in front of him. Especially when he is about to do that.
I lack the energy to get up and follow my mate. My wet eyes remain on the door he just used minutes ago. History can’t repeat itself, I just know that. If it does, an innocent soul is gonna be caught in between, and my son can’t experience that kind of rejection.
‘Something is wrong dad, Jace woke up and left with Lily’s body’ I mindlink our father. I can’t feel my mate’s wolf just yet. Did he secretly have a thing for Lily? Is he pretending just to see my reaction? Goddess! That will be the most tasteless joke I have ever encountered.
“Mommy, is Daddy leaving again! My son whispers without lifting his head from my neck and I sofily run my fingers through his hair.
“No, baby. He is not” I kiss his head and he sniffles. Liam easily reads into stuff. He knows when we are happy and when we aren’t. He has been eagerly waiting for his dad to wake up and that is not the reaction he expected. He even thought it was because of his imaginary powers his father woke up. He will be back, I promise” I whisper even though I am not sure of my
own words.
‘Godcess! Ana, we just saw him and he won’t talk to any of us. The only thing Jace said is that I will regret hurting Lily. We are coming to you dear, where are you?’ He sofily asks, worry and concern in his voice.
Not more than two minutes later, four worried men enter the room and I don’t lift my head to look at them. If I do, I will end up crying and my son is here. I can smell them so I know who they are.
“Oh! Baby, something must be wrong somewhere because we both know that isn’t Jace” Our dad walks to my right side and sits down. “The look in his eyes was unlike him. I have never seen so much hate in my son’s eyes. I don’t understand what is happening. Here I thought we can finally breathe in peace” He sighs, stressfully running his fingers through his hair.
“I think it’s weird too. The less time I have been around him, the more I realized he so much cares for you. I see how he looks at you, honey. But the man that just confronted us in the packhouse is not Jace” My dad gently pats my head and 1 don’t react.

Chapter 73
I don’t know what to think or say. I had really looked forward to the vacation he promised me. It makes me wonder If I came any minute late, would Jace have fought the effect of the drug or he would have just gone ahead and f ucked her.
My heart is breaking with every depressing thought going through my head right now. My wolf has recoiled back in my head and the only reaction I am getting from her are her painful whimpers.
“I know someone who might have gone through the same thing” Leo speaks for the first time and that’s when I look up. For the first time, I see remorse in his eyes. He is no longer the co cky b astard I have known for a while.
I know he remembers the depression I went through when I had Liam. His mother is the one who rescued me after all. Despite their scheming, she still saved my life, I would have been dead right now.
“Who? What happened?” Our dad quickly gets up and I hopefully stare at Leo.
“My father” Leo sighs and sadly stares at the baby in my arms. Liam hasn’t stopped whimpering and tightly clutching at me. Jace’s mother used the same drug on my dad when she conceived Jace. And that is not the only thing she did, I don’t know what was in that drug but as soon as it got into his system, he started acting weird. He said his wolf disappeared and he started feeling very attached to the woman. Like how mates are supposed to feel or some sh it
“I don’t understand” I chime in before Leo can continue. “We gave him an antidote. And no matter what is happening to him, he at least has enough senses to recognize his son when he sees him. Unless the drug makes you so f ucking st upid to the point of hurting your two-year-old son I bitterly say feeling so much anger. My son and I don’t deserve this.
“Calm down, honey, let him finish the story and see if we can help him” Our dad softly whispers, and so much pain engulfs. my heart when Liam sniffles. I smell his tears and his little fingers move around my neck. What should I tell him? We are not even sure we will help Jace because the b itch who caused this, is already dead and he is probably planning to avenge her.
Doesn’t he have a brain or a heart to fight the dam ned feelings?
“Come on my little
prince, do y
you want some lee cream?” My dad reaches out to Liam but the boy refuses him.
“Did Andrew get help or did the feelings gradually fade?” Jace’s father hopefully asks and everyone stares at Leo in anticipation. My heartbeat quickens at the upcoming answer because it holds 111 fate.
“He did. Though, I don’t know how, I felt st upid listening to him, so I didn’t allow him to continue with the story. We can still ask him though Leo shrugs and I sigh in disappointment, lowering my gaze.
“That’s the problem. He is on the brink of death if he is not dead already Noah says, killing all the hope I had.
