Lukyan had to wait at least two minutes before all the alpha wolves in that room calmed down again. He had closed his eyes calmly, undisturbed. He knew this was going to be a hard fight to win – after all, they didn’t fully trust him. He felt the weight of her husband’s gaze but did not respond. This was something she had to do whether she liked it or not for the sake of everyone around her.

Lucian finally brought order again and he opened his eyes. There was no sign of him backing down in his orbs.

-Can we go on,” he asked, bowing his head. They had barely let her continue after she had asked for their b***d. “Edgar, could you explain?

The wolf nodded and waited for Lucian’s affirmation before speaking.

-The reason the queen asked for something that may seem far-fetched to you was because she is certain that it can work,” he said.

-You know very well that the b***d of another wolf, if it is not compatible, will destroy it,” Asula, the older wolf spoke from experience.

-I know, I have been a pack doctor for too long. I have also seen how well he has assimilated my alpha’s b***d.

-Lucian growled, the very thought of Lukyan being in danger again made his b***d boil.

-This time we can guarantee it,” all attention was on the wolf with such intensity that his shoulders shook, but he continued, “Before the queen was kidnapped she gave us a good portion of her b***d,” Dante’s face turned pale, “Thanks to that we were able to study her in depth. Even though she is young, her body is capable of accepting the b***d of any wolf- -That’s nonsense.

-That’s nonsense, it’s not possible,” Litus, one of the twin alphas protested.

-My father trained me from puppyhood and every day he made me take a small dose of the b***d of a member of the pack,” continued Lukyan. “The first times were difficult, but then the body gets used to it, that’s why when Dante rescued me and gave me his b***d I had no problem assimilating it.

-One of these days I’d like to know how you were raised,” Lucian told him seriously, “And the other thing that interests me, the reason why you want our b***d,” Lukyan kept his back straight.

Lukyan kept his back straight, now the real battle began, he knew they would surely refuse.

-If I take your b***d I will get stronger and I will be able to use my ability to control the pack members by breaking the effect on Ryan’s, that will give them the possibility to attack without having to kill innocent wolves.

-And you being in the middle of the battlefield is out of the question,” Lucian growled.

-And what guarantee do we have that you won’t just control those wolves and turn on us,” Leon, the other twin spoke up.

-He has no such intentions,” Dante interrupted in a tone that had no claim, “If he did, I’d know about it. He’s my partner, I know what he’s thinking-” A silence fell in the room.

A silence fell in the room. If Dante said something like that there was no way to contradict him.

-You will be in the rear,” Lucian said, standing up and facing him, “I will allow it only because we have no choice,” he knew he might regret his decision, “You will be guarded by the best wolves of each pack, but if anything gets out of control they will take you back to the shelter and you will not be able to fight back.

Lukyan raised his head and with a serious expression nodded. Lucian exchanged a glance with Dante who stood tensely beside him. He knew the wolf didn’t want those words to come out of his mouth, but the alpha knew his wolf and he knew the end of it so he didn’t object.

-Edgar brought a drink,” Dante ordered.

Soon after, each of them bit their wrists and left a little of their b***d in the cup.

Dante was the second to last and Lucian the last. He approached Lukyan again who had risen to his feet and held out the cup. The omega took it and looked at the contents which had turned black and its smell was strong and powerful. She swallowed dryly and did not know why. Her husband’s hand rested on her lower back and watched her every move.

-If you don’t want to do this, don’t make yourself,” she said softly, but he only smiled slightly at her before raising the cup to his lips and taking three sips to drink the entire contents.

When he pulled it away his eyes were closed and he let go of the cup and it fell to the ground with a thud. The wolves became alert and a pulse of worry ran through them. Seconds later Lukyan slowly opened his eyelids.

-Lukyan,” Dante asked him, his back sweating with tension, “Are you all right?

He raised his hands and studied them.

-Nothing, I don’t feel anything,” he bowed his head blankly.

Lucian looked at Dante and moved closer to him, touching his forehead and concentrating.

-I can feel my b***d inside you, why is there no reaction?

-Maybe we have to wait,” Edgar approached the group, “Queen, we should wait, maybe the effects will come out a little later, your body must detect what you have taken first,” he explained patiently.

Lukyan nodded again and turned his attention to Dante. Half an hour later they left the room after discussing the last organisational issues. In all that time he hadn’t felt any change in his body. Not even that the wound on his back had stopped bothering him.

Absolutely nothing. Perhaps he was wrong. Edgar had told her that she had to wait, but time was something they didn’t have.

She walked beside her husband who had a hand on her shoulder and was talking to Lucian. The other alphas had retreated in another direction. He wanted to pay attention to the conversation, but a strong dizziness assaulted him and only gave him time to move his lips.

-Dante, it’s all getting ne…gro…gro,” if his husband wasn’t watching him, he would have fallen to the ground in total unconsciousness.


Pain, a searing heat spreading through his body. Dry throat begging for more than water. His inner throbbing begging to be filled. His skin felt like it was burning and sweating. Something inside him was stirring inside him. Repairing whatever might be damaged making him stronger, more alive. His senses became more attentive, his brain more precise.

Lukyan’s eyes snapped open and the colours became violently saturated. He was sweating profusely, his thighs clenched and he could only pull his body in, staring in the direction of the half-open door.

Dante had gone in to take a bath after staying with his wolf for a while without any change in his condition. His eyes were closed and he was totally unconscious. He had called Edgar and he had only said that it was possibly because of the mixture of b***d in his body and to wait. But he was going crazy with worry.

He hit the tiles cracking them. The thought of Lukyan leaving his side because of a bad decision of his was something he couldn’t live with. He had become an essential part of her life, and she had fallen in love like she never thought she would.

Fingers suddenly trailed down her back followed by lips. Dante turned suddenly surprised that he hadn’t noticed that someone had come so close and he hadn’t detected it. To his surprise his wolf was standing in front of him. His clothes wet from the shower and his hair in disarray. But something was wrong.

Dante then smelled him. A strong, sweet scent that could bring him to his knees and became more intense as he moved closer and pushed him against the shower wall making him growl at the not so gentle impact. Moving closer, the omega grabbed the back of his neck claiming his lips with a violence that was uncharacteristic of him.

The alpha trembled at his touch. At what was happening. Because he never expected it to happen so fast and he didn’t know what it was because of the b***d he had taken.

He circled the omega’s body and pulled him to him, melting into his body ecstatic and happy even though he knew it wasn’t the time, but….

Lukyan was in heat.
