Axel's POV
*****
Beta Axel Thorne.
The golden wolf of Lunaria. The Alpha king's prized golden boy, whom he made his Beta at such a young age for his "talent".
Little did the empire know that the boy died years ago...
It all began a little over three hundred years ago. Garrick, bastard son of Alpha king Raghar Stormborn.
His father had slept with a peasant woman, resulting in his birth. But she wasn't Raghar's mate and had died during childbirth.
Making Garrick a shame to the Stormborn bloodline.
A fact which his father never ceased to remind him of.
"Don't you ever call me father or I'll banish you to the furthest reaches of the Dark Lands!" Raghar would snarl at him anytime he dared call him that word.
As if that wasn't enough, Garrick had to pretend like he was nothing but a mere servant in his own father's palace.
He was a nobody.
Until his Alpha blood started developing.
