Lucien POW

Like a wild beast. 1 paced outside the barrier created by the High Council witches with my hands clenched into hats. I wanted to kill those wiches like yesterday. They have no right to be in the werewolves teritories. Yet here they were. Binding us, controlling us. They had seated the prison – with dark magic, making sure that no one, inchading me, could teach her

Frustration burned in my chest. Remus was growling restlessly mside me. “Let’s tear through the council walls and get back our mate, he snarled

His raw rage mirrored mine. The bond that I felt between us throbbed painfully. It was a constant reminder that A out reach.

I exhaled sharply as I ran a hand through my hair. He was right. I just couldn’t stand here while she suffered alone in that prison where I knew they had dark magic.

I turned to Tarian who was watching me with tension in his eyes. “What do you want me to do. Alpha?” he asked. “Should I call all our pack members to attack these bastards?”

“I want you to find out everything about Elder Peter. This can’t be his work alone. If he sent his dogs after Auren, who he doesn’t know at all, then he must be in cahoots with someone. I’m sure it is Rizy, but that dimwit is in our dungeons, and wouldn’t dare to approach Peter. Then who is it that has helped Peter into framing Aurent If Sable and those wolves are dead, then where are their bodies?”

“I’ll put our trackers on task, Alpha Tarian said. “But I think we should also talk to Rizy about it. Maybe he had planned it all along?”

I let out a rough breath. “Maybe!” I felt Auren through the bond, a faint tugging sensation. Like she was calling out to me. I grinted my teeth when 1 sensed the pain she was in. It was so deep that it chilled my bones. I couldn’t stand it. “Tarian,” I said in a rough voice. “Take charge. Handle everything. Auren needs me.”

His eyebrows shot to the hairline. “What do you mean?” he asked. “How do you know? Can you go inside and see her! Or you are thinking s needs you

“You won’t understand.” I replied. “It’s–I shook my head. How could I say that Auren was my mate! There were too many wolves around me.

Tarian’s eyes widened in complete shock. “She’s your She is Auren- Oh, my goddess!”

Damn it. It seemed like he heard what I was thinking. I should be more careful with my thoughts. Thankfully, my mental shields were so good that unless I wanted no other pack member could listen to me. Other than Tarian of course.

I closed my eyes and tipped my head up. “Yes,” I replied. “But don’t you fucking utter a word to anyone!”

Shocked, bamboozled, totally out of his space, Tarian continued to surging for his Luna.

“Well, now you k

“You, arrogant prick!” he cursed me.

“Look, she needs ine. So handle everything, okay!”

He nodded, clenclung his teeth. “Do you know how serious this has suddenly become? Do you understand the gravity of the situation?”

“I do!” I snapped. “I am going. She is in trouble. So keep a watch on every activity and disturbs me only when needled!” Saying that, I turned and walked toward the forest to fund a solitary place. I could feel his eyes boring into my back. Though I knew that he would never reveal it to anyone, he was going to give me a good one when we returned. Maybe he would challenge me just to release his pent–up frustration. Maybe I’ll lose to him.

It pushed past the physical world and slipped into the bond. I searched for her through all the whiteness that surrounded me. And there she was. Waiting for me in the temple where we married. “Come here,” I said, feeling relieved and opening my arms. She ran into my arms. “Auren.“I murmured as I wrapped my arms tightly around her. Fuck. This was all I ever wanted in my life. My happily ever after.

We spent time together inside the temple, exploring it as we talked to each other. We reached the statue of the Moon Goddess and offered our 1/2
