Chapter XI

Freya

Theo scraped the last bite of Scarlet’s chicken pasta from his plate, cheeks puffed out in satisfaction. I took one small taste and the familiar spices settled on my tongue. For a second, I was back in our tiny kitchen, the pressure of worrying endlessly lifting just a little. I missed that place more than I wanted to admit.

Theo leaned back with a happy sigh, eyes bright. Scarlet sat beside him, grinning as she ruffled his hair and teased him about eating like he’d been

  • The Alpha King’s Hidden Heir   Chapter 18

    Chapter XVIII FREYA The palace library was a massive room lined with ancient books and scrolls. Today, I was more amazed than the first time I came here with Tasha. At the time, I didn’t get the time to do much research because I needed to check on Theo. This time, I had slipped away after lunch while Scarlet took Theo to play in the gardens. I spent hours searching for anything about powerful young wolves, uncontrollable abilities, or strange markings like the ones on Theo’s back. Just because it calmed down a bit doesn’t mean we should forget the main reason for coming here. I found nothing comforting. Instead, I stumbled across old symbols carved into the edges of some scrolls, the same strange markings I had noticed in the palace architecture. They looked like something meant to contain power… or magic. A chill ran down my spine. I was still staring at one of the symbols when I felt a strong familiar presence behind me. Damon. “Looking for ways to hide my son again?” he

    Chapter XVII Freya Some days later, Scarlet was gone before breakfast. For the past four days this was her routine. I had asked her about it and she said I should meet her in the courtyard if I wanted to know. Theo was with his father last night… My wolf didn’t have a problem with it but I did. My son had insisted on staying with the King and Damon accepted him happily. I didn’t want to talk to him after I saw him that day with Seraphine, and especially hearing what that maid said about me and my son being sent away. I know it was a mere rumour but how true was it? I still wonder why he decided to look for a Luna just after my return with my son. Why not then… or later? I find it so hard to understand. I have been avoiding both the ladies and him because they screamed the opposite of peace. I didn’t even speak with him when I went to pick up Theo. Gladly, I found Scarlet in the outer training courtyard, already drenched in sweat. She wore borrowed training leathers that were ob

    Chapter XVI Freya Later that evening, I had left Theo with Scarlet just so I could walk the palace a little. I moved to the gardens which seemed too peaceful. The last time I came out here, Damon was here waiting for me. Or expecting me like he said. I took a few steps forward when I heard some giggling. I looked in the direction, it was Lady Seraphine and Damon. They walked slowly along the flower-lined path side by side. They had some distance away from me but I heard that giggle very clearly. My wolf was restless and then my claws shot out from my fingers. I stood still. Maybe I can try again to see if I can hear what they were on again. I thought to myself and prayed for my powers to work. “You are such a—“ The lady’s voice came in again but a sharp pang bit across my ear. I hissed in pain. This stuff was easier when I was much younger and now that I may need it, it’s hard? Why then did it come back. I grit my teeth against my jaw. At that moment, I regretted why I had c

    Chapter XV King Damon I stood near the main arena, arms crossed, watching warriors spar in the distance. My wolf was unusually restless today and part of me wondered if all these was a mistake… bringing her to the open, pushing too soon, but another part, the one that had missed five years of my son’s life, shut the thoughts out. Turning my head, I saw Theo arrive with Freya and Scarlet trailing a few steps behind. The boy’s eyes widened at the sight of warriors shifting mid-fight. Perhaps, he was amazed by powerful wolves clashing before returning to human form… I want to believe it wasn’t his first time seeing such things. He stayed close to his mother’s side, but I caught the spark of curiosity in his gaze. I smiled and welcomed them as they got closer. “Dad?” Theo called out softly. The sound hit me harder than any sword blow. I crouched down to his level, keeping my voice steady. “Would you like to watch them train up close?” I asked. Theo glanced at Freya… perhaps

    Chapter XIVFreyaThe morning after the feast, the palace felt even more overwhelming. I had barely slept, my mind replaying how those ladies smiled at Damon, touched his arm, and laughed at his minimal responses as if they were the funniest things they’d ever heard. The way he held that lady and danced with her... my wolf was furious.Now, Scarlet and I were walking through the eastern gardens with Theo when the ladies appeared. They moved as if they owned the place, and I almost rolled my eyes.The auburn-haired lady spotted us first and approached with graceful steps. “Lady Freya?… Correct me if I’m wrong,” she said warmly, her voice like honey; I wouldn't even blame Damon if he fell for her already.“That’s correct.”“Oh, I’m Lady Seraphine Valemont. I… heard about your son…” She said, looking at me with those innocent brown eyes that looked deceiving to me.“It must have been so difficult raising him alone in the human world. You’re incredibly strong.” She continued.“And what ex

    Chapter XIII King Damon Long tables rasped under the scent of roasted meats, spiced wines, and silver platters piled high with delicacies in the dining hall. The entire court had gathered for the welcome feast, I sat at the head of the main table. My expression remained neutral as the three noble ladies were seated near me. Lady Seraphine Valemont smiled softly from my right, her hair catching the light like warm copper. She spoke gently about alliances and the beauty of the gardens, her voice so soothing. Lady Kaelith Stormrune sat a little further down, her silver-blonde braid resting over one shoulder. She ate with warrior efficiency, occasionally shooting glances my way, it looked like she was assessing me like I was a threat. Lady Selene Viremont, on my left, kept her eyes lowered, offering smiles and soft-spoken compliments. She was a shy one. Lord Varek watched his daughter with barely concealed pride from across the table. I played my role well, polite nods, good

    Chapter IX Freya We had just finished bathing and were fully dressed when a knock sounded at the door. “Hold on, baby.” I walked over and opened it to find Scarlet standing there with a bright smile. She pushed her way inside without waiting. “Good morning to you too,” I called after her playfu

    Chapter VIIIFreya I had just finished putting Theo to sleep after dinner. I didn’t want to go to any grand dining hall, so I requested that our food be brought straight to our quarters. Tasha had offered to bathe Theo and help care for him, but I refused. I didn’t trust anyone here yet. I glanc

    Chapter VII Damon A savage growl tore from my throat. She had hidden my heir. Five years of emptiness… five years of an incomplete bond that haunted me every damn day… all because she ran. That night at the masquerade, the ancient ritual magic had concealed faces, scents, and even the mate bon

    Chapter VI Freya My eyes fluttered open to the feeling of cool silk against my skin. For a few seconds, everything was blurry. A thick fluffy blanket pressed down on me, and above my head hung an ornate chandelier with crystal spikes that looked like iron claws ready to strike. Where am I? I
