Chapter 0403

Carlos POV

My daughter, My Vee was happy? I admit that I wasn't too pleased about her being mates to Lord Oliver, or mated to any wolf for that matter, but knowing she was happy filled me with the hope for her to have a better life than I, and that was the only thing that kept running through my mind as the full moon quickly approached.

My muscles ached with a pain I had never experienced, my gums throbbed, as if ready for the Lycan teeth that would break through them at any time, and my emotions were even more erratic to control than previously. What had shocked me the most about my body's changes however was the sheer fact that my appetite had increased so drastically that nothing I ate was satisfying me.

The only good thing about all of this was that my meager meal plan had been revoked and replaced with one fit for a Lycan. I was now being given more food in one meal than I had previously received in a week. However even those portions were small in comparison to the hunger my stomach felt.

The mark that had been so viciously forced on my neck didn't provide the same connection as others either, or so I've heard. Instead of pleasure coursing throw me every time my mark is touched by her, I'm shocked with an overwhelming bout of agony, as quickly as she touches it, it disappears, but it did make me recoil a lot of the time. Lorellia hated that I was still defiant, in fact I was even more so than usual, I would never have forgiven her,even before she had forced me to take her mark, now however, that lady who had violated me, and forced me to father an unwanted child, was dead to me.

I told myself over and over again that I would survive long enough to rip her to shreds, baby or no baby. I had endured far too much to not at least try for revenge.

The palace was currently on high alert, the kings father had taken most of the warriors to the closed sector in the west, in order to assist his son in subduing the rebellion. And after the announcement of Lewis's execution, the kings mother wasn't anywhere to be seen.

Lorellias stomach was in simple

terms, huge now, she was genuinely

looking as if she'd go into labor at any given time. I didn't know how far along she was, I never cared enough to listen to her, but she made me feet it every second she got.

"My lady?" One of the warriors entered our room and looked directly at my tormentor. She sat on the small sofa that rested underneath the windowsill, with a holographic device in her hand, she was flicking through thousands of baby items and checking my them off her list of things she still needed to get. I was sat on a seat, slightly tucked under a table after just finishing my third snack since lunch. Upon the guard entering however, both Lorellia and I allowed our sight to wander to the man stood within the doorway. "Sorry for the intrusion, The restraints you asked for have been prepared in the gardens."

Restraints?

Why on earth would she have requested that restraints were to be set up within the gardens? That was such a strange place to have some secured.

"Excellent..." I eyed her cautiously as she threw her electronic down onto the sofa next to her and stood up, before waddling over to me and holding her hand out expectantly. "Come on my love."

"Why have you ordered shackles to be put in the gardens?" I obviously ignored her stretched out arm and dared not to move. My ass staying firmly on the chair I was sat on.

She didn't answer my question straight away, instead her eyes rolled inside her skull as if her answer would be painfully obvious.

"I can't have you shifting tonight in

our bedroom can I?" Shifting? My eyes widened a fraction as I finally realised what she was intending to do. I shot out of my seat only to take several hasty steps backwards away from the insufferable woman.
