| looked at him in awe. The way he could make me feel loved and unloved in mere seconds was annoying me.
He had too much power over me. He would do anything and | would still love him nonetheless. | hated the mate bond, | hated how it made me weak every time my mates mistreated me.
“This is not love, Prescott. You're not letting me go just because of the power of being Alpha King,” | shrugged, playing it cool.
| didn’t want him to see how much he was hurting me. | would never let him have that satisfaction.
“Screw the powers. | just want you. | will talk to Lola and tell her that you’re my Luna and wife. | have moved on,” h told me with determination.
“You can’t disrespect the person you love. And your actions earlier spoke very loudly about whom you love,” | pointed out, remembering how he had asked me to get out of his room.
My husband gasped for air and his tough expression turned into a pained one as he kneeled in front of me and a solemn tear dropped from his eye.
“I'm so sorry, Tila. | beg you, please, don’t leave me. | thought that | still had feelings for Lola but | didn’t feel like dying when she left me,” he paused, looking at me with
remorse.
“But when you mentioned divorce, | realized that | love only you. | can’t imagine my life without you. Please, give me a second chance. | promise you that | won’t disappoint you,” he added sincerely.
| couldn't believe my eyes. The notorious Alpha whom everyone feared was begging me on his knees not to leave him.
My wolf melted at this gesture and wanted to forgive him but it wasn’t easy for me to forget how he insulted me in front of that bit ch. | found myself having trust issues.
“Get up, Prescott. | don’t want you to do this, please,” | said, putting my hand on his shoulder and forcing him to stand up.

“Does this mean you have forgiven me?” He asked innocently and | suppressed a smile. He looked so adorable and innocent that | wanted to kiss him right away.
“I'm not sure yet. It’s hard for me to trust someone now,” | said coldly.
“It's okay. You're not leaving me and that’s enough for me. | will work hard to win your trust and will never break it again,” he held my hands and kissed them gently.
Before he could say anything, | retracted my hands from him. “I need to go and meet Avery. She shifted alone when | was healing you.”
“Thank you for saving my life. I’m alive because of you and for you,” he said, grinning
ears to ears.
He was good at two things- flirting and f ucking. He made me feel butterflies just through his words.
| left my room and met my sister who was crying in my mother’s embrace. | ran towards her and patted her back.
*Her wolf killed an innocent guy, Mom informed me via the link so she wouldn't feel ashamed in front of me.
“How could this possibly happen?’ | asked Mom. Avery's wolf wasn’t as aggressive as mine because she was the second Princess.
“| don’t know either. Your father is trying to erase her scent from his dead body so there wouldn't be any blame on Avery,’ Mom explained, which bothered me because as the Queen, | should protect every wolf, not just my sister.
| felt sorry for his family. They must be going through hell.
“| don’t know how | ended up killing him. | was pretty sure that | didn’t kill him but when | shifted back into my human form, | found the blood on my hands and his dead. body in front of me.” Avery said in between her s obs.Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
“| didn’t kill him, Sister,” she cried, not holding back her tears.
“Calm down, Ava. Just answer my questions, okay?” | comforted her and she nodded her head vigorously.
“Did
you see anyone else there except the two of you?” | asked, having an uneasy feeling
about this.
“No. Although I felt a shadow watching me, there was no one,” She replied, wiping her

face with her hands.
My gut feeling said that it was a trap and someone else murdered him deliberately to frame Avery.
“Who is our enemy in this pack?” Mom sounded confused, putting her hand under her
chin.
“Not yours but mine. Someone is trying to hurt me by framing Avery but don’t you worry, I’ll find the culprit and make sure that he or she regrets being alive,” | muttered through gritted teeth.
“How was your shifting for the first time? Did you get hurt anywhere?” | started looking for signs on her body but gladly, there were none.
“It was a bit painful but then, it was smooth and my wolf finally felt free,” she happily replied.
After talking to her for a while, | took my leave so she could sleep. Mom stayed with her in her room to comfort her.
“Happy birthday, my love,” Prescott said as soon as | entered our floor.”
He was still in an apron and the flour was on his cheeks. He was holding the tray of cheesecake which | assumed he baked himself. “Make a wish and blow out the candle.”
| was about to close my eyes when | heard a squeal and saw Lola sprinting towards us.
“You made my favorite cheesecake. Aww, thank you,” she lifted her hand to grab the cake but Prescott stopped her.
How could he make his ex's favorite cake on my birthday?
“There wasn’t any chocolate left so | had to make cheesecake and it’s for my wife, not you. You may ask the chef to make one for you tomorrow,” Prescott told her and pressed his lips hard.
“The chef doesn’t make as delicious as yours. Won't you give me one bite?” She batted her eyelashes and | almost gagged at her pick-me-girl attitude.
“I'm sorry, Lola but it’s her birthday cake so | can’t,” he said and | enjoyed watching her get surprised.
She hadn't expected no from him. Maybe the Moon Goddess had granted my wish already.

“Happy birthday, Matilda,” she faked a smile at me.
“Thanks,” | smirked and she left immediately, feeling embarrassed.
| blew out the caridle and cut the cake. Prescott sang a happy birthday song for me, looking so cute.
“Thank you for this,” | said, offering him the first bite but he made me eat that.
“It's not sweet enough for me yet,” he kissed my lips before tasting the cake from my mouth and moaning in pleasure.
‘Now, it’s sweet enough for me,’ he teased me through the link and carried me in bridal style to our room while | carried the cake in my hands.
