LOGINAlberto's POV
The air in the infirmary was thick with the cloying scent of crushed valerian, mountain sage, and the low hum of the high healers' magic. Normally, I wouldn't be caught dead in here—I detested the place—but circumstances were different.
I wanted to make sure that whatever they were doing was helping Sapphire, because one thing my encounter at the village had taught me was that waiting for reports from subordinates would always end in disappointmen
GONZALO’S POVThe reports couldn’t have reached me any faster. Alberto was in danger and Enzo was quite the trap setter, he had done this to me before and now he was targeting Alberto.Luckily, I had the pack loyal to me enough to keep my secret and join me in the war.“Long time no see brother” I mumbled to Alberton who had a thin smile on his lips “I’ve missed you” I teased, pulling him in for a hug.“You’ve saved me today” he embraced me, patting my back “I would’ve killed you right after Enzo though” I teased as well and we both erupted in laughter before pulling ourselves off each other.“This isn’t over yet, Alpha twins!” Enzo yelled, his arms bound behind his back with chains “I swear on the goddess’ light, I’ll make sure you both are gone from this world” he gritted his teeth with anger, his tone, serious as always, so much so that it was almost scary.I made my way towards him, my heart still ached at the thought of his betrayal. He had been my closest friend before his exile
ALBERTO’S POVI thought it was the end, my thoughts went back to the silk on Sapphire's skin, her voice and her scent. Even though my men were either stabbed or clawed through, I wouldn’t let their sacrifice be in vain, yet the silence caused me to pause, trying to draw my breath frantically.But as the silence pressed against my lungs, I felt the golden fire of my heart spark deep within my chest, burning against the cold. Enzo had made a fatal miscalculation, he hadn't just captured an Alpha; he had invited the storm inside, and I would tear the very fabric of this void apart to get back to the woman I loved.“Aren’t you all talk, my lord?” He teased “How on earth did you even earn the title Alpha supreme?” He questioned with a grin. This was the same man who ran away with his tails between his legs when I stood against Gonzalo, yet his mouth was sharper than a newly harnessed sword.His voice made my blood boil even more than before, his antics weren’t getting to me. Just as I
ALBERTO’S POVThere was nothing I could be told, my wife is the best thing to happen to me, her lips sucked on my c*ck, I suppressed my moans because I needed to show her more but they did so much to my body that I couldn’t let her go free with just a thrust, she needed to enjoy this as much as I enjoyed it.“Please Al..put it in” she moaned softly, her voice made my heart race, I couldn’t understand how I had gone so long without her voice in my ear.“Not yet my dearest” I answered with much strength, I placed my c*ck between her thighs from behind her and I thrusted back and forth without penetrating. I heard her squeal “Al..th..this is amazing” she moaned, thrusting back and forth with me, her buttocks on my thigh, moving with precision whilst my hands fiddled her nipples whilst she moved with me. I could feel her heart race even faster and she got warmer with every touch, I loved it, I loved her and just when I thought I could stop teasing her, I felt her finger on my tip. Where
SAPPHIRE’S POVI placed my palm on my chest before heading towards my daughter. I heard her wails, I made my way towards her, comforting her in my arms.“Shhh..my baby” I noticed her face redden and her heart racing so fast it made me scared for her. But I felt his hands around my body, holding me tight, tears trickled down my cheeks.We were whole again, I, Layla and Alberto, my heart raced at what could’ve happened if we weren’t blessed by the goddess.“What are you thinking about?” Alberto asked after I had handed Layla over to her caretaker.“Nothing..I was just thinking about the future of our child” I answered, fiddling my fingers when almost immediately, he gave a signal that the dining hall be cleared empty.“What’s wrong my love?” He asked, concern etched on his face as he clasped my hands with his. “I’m just scared..” I turned towards the door “For Layla, for us” I revealed “I know the power of the goddess is a blessing bu..”“But we’ll handle it, we always have and will” h
ALBERTO’S POVI felt Sapphire’s wrist hold mine too with Layla in her arms, she wasn’t safe here, whatever had followed us back here didn’t seem so casual.“I’m not leaving you again” she cried “I’m not sure if I’ll see you again if that happens” her hand held onto my wrist even harder, my gaze softened, her hair still looked disheveled and her body looked even more tired, it had to be, it’s only been a day since she birthed.“Alright my love” I towered over her, cupping her face in my hand, her eyes pleading with tears pooled in them “Then I want you to be on the sidelines” I informed her, tears trickled down “I have to fight, for you, to protect you and our child” I explained, looking at my darling daughter curled up in her arms.“No, no, no” she mumbled, I couldn’t give her a choice.I waved for a soldier up in my ranks “Take care of the lady and get maids to help her” he nodded with approval “Take care of her with your life” I explained and he nodded, this time with certainty.“Ye
GONZALO’S POVShe drives me crazy!The tiny mole behind her ear, her soft angelic moans in my ear, her slow movements against my body when I thrusted into her, she was different, more different than anyone I had laid with, her subtle voice whenever I suckled on her nipples made my body ache with desire. I couldn’t care any less if she pulled out a dagger stabbed it through my chest or if the goddess said we were a cursed bond, she was mine.The transition from the raw, jagged edge of conflict to the fluid, consuming heat of our intimacy was seamless, a violent surrender. My hands mapped the topography of her body as if I were a blind man finally finding sight. Every inch of her skin was an invitation, and I took it with the desperation of a man who knew his time was running out.I pushed her back against the cool, unforgiving stone of the cavern wall, her gasp blooming like a flower in the dark. I didn't care about the throbbing ache in my side; her heat was the only bandage that mat
Kael's POVMy breath caught in my throat as I looked into the dark eyes of the man I called Alpha. He had a small smile on his face, but I could tell he was not pleased from the clench of his fist and the furrow in his brows."I asked a question, Kael," he prompted, raising a br
Kael's POVI was preparing a meal for Sapphire to eat outside of the tent. Elira walked up to me and helped me cut some herbs for her to drink.“I admire your devotion to her.”. She said calmly.“I'd do anything for her, anything”. “I hope you'd be ready to le
Sapphire’s POV Kael sighed and sat beside me. "A long time ago, when I served under Alberto, I wasn’t just a guard. I was trained for something else, something darker. The High Council used me to find and silence threats. I was an enforcer, Sapphire. I did things I’m not proud of. I followed order
Sapphire's POVThe moment I jolted awake, I knew something was wrong.The pain wasn’t sharp like a wound or sudden like a cramp. It was a deep, rolling nausea that started in my spine and crept through my entire body like crawling fire. My bones ached and my skin burned. And my heart, gods, my hea
