Lucian carried his mate, protecting her in his arms as he walked to the small cave he had prepared to rest in during the times he had stayed here.He was very grateful for the good protected environment in these caves and that he always cleaned it and organized what was needed when he came.He gently placed an exhausted Olivia on the large bed and kissed her forehead lovingly.She was amazing and had responded to him with the same intensity to the end, even though he had knocked her unconscious several times.He checked her body with concern, but except for the obvious abuse on the triangle between her legs, her breasts and the obvious bite mark on her neck, everything else was healing at an incredible rate, thanks to Lucian's blood, which she had ingested several times."Lucian, you must have figured it out by now, Olivia is not a normal human. I've suspected it for a while, but now I'm more than sure.""The body of a normal human can't hold my knot so many times in a row, I couldn't

Olivia opened her eyes, tears of despair still streaming from them.Feeling bound and in a dark place, she thought she was still in that horrible nightmare.She could no longer tell reality from fantasy.She tried to free her hands and feet, but she was tied to a chair and could not move.Worst of all was the despair of not feeling Lucian or Lugh.When she tried to contact him through a link to let them know of her presence, she got a terrible headache.- If you keep doing that, you'll only damage your mind more - a voice came from around a corner in the darkness and Olivia tensed, searching in fear for the source of his captor.Some old lamps flickered on and then she saw her.A beautiful woman watching her.But as dazzling as she was, her predatory eyes did not fool Olivia, this woman was not human and she was not someone who came to help her, she was the enemy.- What do you want from Lucian?- Olivia asked her, looking her straight in the face, knowing full well that her stupidity

Olivia felt the brightness of the outside and the wild smell of the earth and the trees, but she could not stand it anymore.Her whole body had reached its limit, she regretted not being able to say goodbye to her love, but this would be the end.Just before her head hit the ground, strong arms lifted her up.Lucian, it was Lucian who held her in his hands and carried her out of those dark caves that reeked of pure evil.- Resist my love, resist, you will soon be well, don't give up love, don't give up - he begged her with a trembling voice, holding her close to his body as he sat on the green forest floor.Without wasting a second opened a deep wound in his neck so that she could drink directly from his life blood.- Drink Olivia, drink it all and heal, I beg you, please, live for both of us, don't give up, my love, don't give up - he begged her in a panic like he had never felt in his lifeIn his mind Lugh was also comforting his mate, urging her to drink all she needed, no matter i

After this serious and frightening incident, life in the pack began to return to normal, except for the destruction of the forest.Much of it had been drained to give Keeva enough power to repair Olivia's injured body, save the cubs and her own life.But Lucian, what he had most to spare was money, He hired a large team to replant the whole forest, fertilize the soil and little by little, with time and everyone's efforts, they would restore nature to this part of their land.Ophelia clung to Olivia as soon as she saw her again, despite all the protection around her, she could also feel her father's pain for Olivia.She cried inconsolably in her arms and Olivia's heart achedShe comforted her by telling her that she would never leave again, that she would always be with them and she looked at Lucian as well.There was the matter of telling Ophelia that she was Lucian's mate, and Olivia was afraid of her rejection, that she would think she was trying to take her mother's place, and now

When Luca arrived at Lucian's mansion, he did not find the Ancient.He sighed inwardly at his good fortune, and even more so when he saw Ophelia playing in the garden, alone.Not that she was in any real danger, she was very well protected by all of Lucian's spells, and Luca could sense that Malla was nearby, surely she had only wandered away for a moment, so this was their chance.He approached the beautiful Omega painting in a notebook and played friendly.Ophelia didn't particularly dislike the Alpha of the pack, but as an Omega finally, it made her a little nervous to have him so close.- Ophelia, I just want to talk to your father, to know how Olivia is, she was injured and I'm worried about her health - Luca pretended to be the innocent girl.- Mama Olivia is fine, she is healthy and the three puppies are also healthy - she told him, revealing her father's secrets without knowing- They are not in the villa, they went out to run in the forest.The human is pregnant with three pu
