"Anyway..." Nicholas cleared his throat. "I am not an ungrateful man. Even though I still hate you for taking the woman I love, I am thankful for everything that you did for Sophie... and for Luciel and Jan." Nicholas looked Leland in the eye and spoke so sincerely. "You have protected the people I love. You accepted them, cared for them and you even raised my sons as your own. I am forever indebted to you and I hope someday I could return the favor." Leland's heart was stirred. He didn't feel that what…

After everyone left, both men still stood where they were in silence, until Nicholas finally decided to lower his ego and invited Leland to sit together. "I shouldn't have said those words," he spoke flatly. His expression was laced with embarrassment. He just projected his own insecurities and shame for leaving Sophie six years ago when she needed him the most, he left with no news. Even though it was not one hundred percent his fault, he still felt so guilty and inadequate. That's why, hearing that…

Lily, who had been listening to the conversation between the two men, was surprised. She finally found out the reason for the fierce glare of hatred that King Nicholas and Alpha Leland directed at each other. She could now conclude that the two men hated each other not only because of political problems and human and lycan problems but also because they were fighting over the same woman. And what did the king just say? Sophie and my sons? My sons? Did… that mean the rumors that had been circulating…

They arrived at the biggest inn in town and rested. The king intentionally went to Hastings without telling the mayor or any government officials because he didn't want them to ask questions. At this moment, he wanted to keep confidential the fact that there was a pack of lycans residing in Hastings. People would be terrified or angry and it wouldn't be good for his peace talks. No matter how much he hated Leland and his pack, to Nicholas, Sophie's, and the children's safety was paramount. He would never…

Note: Thank you, Kelly Goodwin dear, for the castle gift. Muahhh!! xx . . . _________________________ Now, everything started to make sense. Nicholas rubbed his temple and cursed inwardly. WHY? Why did Sophie have to end up with the Alpha of Blood River Pack who was, by all means, Nicholas' mortal enemy? It made everything harder for him. He didn't mind working together with anyone but Leland Salazar! "So?" Lily looked at Nicholas and furrowed her brows. She could tell that there was something…
-
Nicholas was dazed when he heard Lily's words. The man halted his steps. Lily stopped too. She looked at him with concern. "Is there something wrong?" she asked him. Nicholas clenched his fists to the sides. He had heard of the pack and he had an awful memory of them. Blood River Pack was just as bad as the Obsidian Sand Pack in terms of cruelty. At least that's what he remembered and experienced. Their Alpha was the one who bit him and inflicted him with lycanthropy. He hated the man with all his…

Luciel and Jan were very good brothers. They loved playing with their younger siblings. When they arrived in the garden, they immediately took over the babies from their parents and played with Anne and Jack. "Gosh... were we this cute when we were babies?" Luciel asked Sophie. His eyes were filled with excitement. Anne was sprawling her four legs on his lap. She seemed to greatly enjoy her brother's affection. "Yes, you are," Sophie confirmed. "Oh... you are both so very cute. The cutest. You always…

"It's just my family," Katherine quickly added. "I am not interested in magic and spells and whatnot. I would rather study human knowledge and become a teacher, like what I am doing now. But I know a spell or two." "Oh... that sounds exciting," Sophie said truthfully. "What can you do with magic?" Katherine shrugged. "Not much. But I can show you a trick or two someday." Both women laughed heartily. Finally, Sophie felt relieved because she had opened up about herself and her family to Katherine, and…

The babies were asleep peacefully after they got their fill. Sophie was still weak and she was too tired for anything. She immediately fell asleep too. She didn't even wake up when the two pups climbed her body and sucked on her nipples again and eat. The new father didn't sleep all night. He was engulfed in a euphoria that he couldn't get a wink of sleep. Fortunately, he had a really strong physique and didn't need sleep that much. The next morning, Luciel and Jan came to visit their newborn siblings…

She immediately gave the first pup to Leland who was frozen in his spot, looking dumbfounded. Was this scene real? His mind was trying to make sense of what happened. Just seconds ago, he heard Sophie's insistence not to scream and suddenly there was this beautiful and chubby pup with wet white fur on his left hand. "Here comes another one," said the midwife with an excited voice. She knew the Alpha and his mate lost their unborn children many years ago and understood how much the birth of their children…
