View MoreI tiredly opened my eyes, blinking through the grogginess and blur as I was met with the view of the bedroom ceiling above me. I glanced around realising that I was tucked up in the bed and I had bandages on my left arm and a gauge on my right shoulder.“Ooh, you’re awake!” Lucille cooed and I looked at her as she stood beside the table near the window and Marco sitting there with a tray of breakfast and a pile of paperwork.I grunted as I tried to re-position myself on the bed, feeling my ass was numb and my back felt stiff. Lucille quickly poured some fresh water into a cup as Marco got up from his seat and sat on the edge of the bed right next to me.“Do you need help moving?” He asked in a kind and soft tone.I shook my head and tried to hoist myself up into a sitting position. As I moved, Marco moved my pillows up against the headboard for me to lean against, and I eyed him curiously at his attentiveness.As soon as I was sitting comfortably, Lucille handed me the water and I gul
I could feel the heat of the fire all over my body as the black sky was tinged with it’s fiery orange glow. I looked all around me hoping I’d see Maura safely running toward the palace, and my heart broke to see so much of our land being burned to the ground.I suddenly heard screams of a woman coming from inside the burning house as the fire began to spread along the dry grass, trailing along to the house beside it, incinerating everything in it’s path. The screams echoed again through the roaring sound of the flickering flames, and I saw the front door marginally start to open. My breath stopped with fear as my feet began to run toward the house, fearful for whoever was trapped inside.I kicked open the door as burning debris started falling down and flaming soot landed on my shoulder burning a whole in my dress and sizzling on my skin. A thick cloud of smoke burst out of the house as I tried to enter, covering my nose and mouth with my arm as I tried to see through the smog. I tre
“You ready for some more pate?” Marco grinned as I approached him at the top of the grand stairs.“As long as it’s not covered in weird jelly, then I’m ready”. I jested in return with a smile as I took hold of his arm.He began leading us down the stairs as people below were being ushered into the ball room by the palace omegas, and I felt a sense of relief when I saw Maura being escorted in along with Landon.“Let’s hope we don’t have to do another formal dinner for a while, I’m not exactly a big fan of mingling”. Marco commented as we reached the bottom of the stairs and waited in the hallway until everyone had been appointed to their right seats.“Really, you? I never would have thought you out of all people didn’t like to socialise”. I joked with a chuckle.“I know! Especially as I’m so approachable”. Marco retorted with sarcasm as we both sniggered and finally entered the room.“Please stand for your alpha and Luna!” An omega announced and everyone got to their feet and bowed the
Two weeks later: Since Maura had put thoughts into my head of Marco’s feelings or intentions toward me, I’d hoped I could avoid him, especially seeing as he’d wanted to discuss the kiss that happened but avoiding him was impossible. Every day there was always something we needed to do together, whether that was checking the crop fields, blessing the arrival of a moon wolf pup or attending meetings with his guards, we were spending hours with each other constantly. Each time we would be civilised, we’d always even find something we both laughed at and as much as I was relieved he had a soft side, I also hated it at the same time because there was a part of me that was starting to like him and forget what he’d done.“What’s this supposed to be”. Marco whispered at the dining table as he turned his nose up at some thick jelly the chefs had put on our toast.I couldn’t help but snortle, amused when my own wobbled as I moved my plate, and he chuckled as I put some of it on my fork and loo
I woke up to see the drapes were already drawn back and Marco wasn’t in the bed. I had taken myself to bed early last night when one of Marco’s palace guards came to me and informed me that Marco was too busy to attend our dinner plans. I was all too relieved that I didn’t have to face an awkward dinner setting with him, with enough time for him to discuss that…. That kiss! The one that I wish had never happened. It was such a small thing, and yet… the repercussions were troubling. I hopped out of bed and headed straight for the bathroom, but as I swung open the door, I jolted back in shock and embarrassment. There standing at the bathroom sink brushing his teeth, Marco was completely naked with his towel laid messily on the floor. I shrieked as he looked at me with wide eyes in surprise and I quickly shut the door again and paced around the room feeling mortified and flustered. The bathroom door clicked open as Marco bashfully cleared his throat, and I peeped round to look at him,
I flickered open my eyes from my deep sleep and groggily saw the wall in front of me as I led on my side at the edge of the bed. Just as I began to fidget under the blanket, I suddenly tensed when I felt Marco’s leg just behind mine, it was then that I could hear him breathing on the pillow next to me. After I had dashed out of his office last night, I had purposely avoided him and snuck into bed before he’d left his office, I even pretended to be asleep when I heard him come into the room. But I was sure that when he got into bed, he slept on the other side like we’d done every night. I stayed perfectly still when I felt him moving as he stretched out his legs with a tired groan and my eyes widened when his arm reached around and rested on top of me. “I know you’re awake”. He murmured. “You’re breathing is a lot deeper when you’re asleep”. He commented and I knew then me pretending to still be sleeping was pointless. “I’ve only just woken up”. I answered with a fake yawn. I felt hi
For the last three days since Marco’s birthday celebrations, we have been getting along better each day, partly because we have barely seen each other, which was a good thing for me. As much as I have been able to slightly tolerate him lately, I still preferred as much space from him as possible. But I woke up this morning telling myself that today had to be the day, I had to somehow convince Marco to release Richard and Rorke from their cells, and I was going over and over in my mind how I was going to approach it, because I knew that out of all the sun wolves still on our land, Richard and Rorke would be the ones that Marco would be most wary of because they were so close to my father and he probably assumed they had full knowledge of what happened between my father and the slayer. I took my time, slowly walking to his study, preparing myself to come across as calm and understanding as much as I could muster. The way we had been civilised lately, arguing with him wouldn’t work, bein
I woke up for once not sighing to myself at the thought of pushing through another day. Last night when we got into bed, Marco had told me he wanted to show me the crops in the morning, so that I could see for myself the changes he had made from my advice. But as I got dressed, although I wasn’t sighing, I was extremely wary and suspicious of his more ‘friendly’ attitude toward me. As much as I felt our conversation in his study yesterday was awkward, I wasn’t expecting to see any eagerness from him over some crops, or especially anything concerning me.As soon as he finished in the shower, and we were ready to go, we walked out of the palace, and I instantly scrunched up my face in confusion to see a swarm of omegas rushing around putting up wooden beams, attaching twinkling lights to them and setting up two long tables with white table cloths. “Umm, what’s all this for?” I asked Marco as I watched the hustle and bustle of it.“Well, they insisted on celebrating”. “Celebrating what?”
If things weren’t gloomy enough on an average summer day, it felt even harder now to find an ounce of joy or happiness now that the clouds were rolling in and the sun barely peeped any warmth through. I used to love autumn… it’s cool breeze, wind through my fur, running through the trees as their wet orange and yellow leaves brushed past me. I loved the smell of the damp grass, and the way the rain seemed to replenish the dry earth. But now, without the freedom to run around carelessly, or take a moment to stroll through the trees that surrounded our border, there wasn’t much left to enjoy about it, and for the first time in my life, I couldn’t wait for autumn to be over. I chucked on a thick cloak over my acceptable Luna gown and walked away from the window so that I could get on with baking the apple and pumpkin pies and deliver them all before the day had ended. I walked into the kitchen expecting to see one of the omega’s waiting and ready to help me when I suddenly gasped at the
