Henry turned to his sister."I would like to talk to Clara alone for a minute, do you mind" he said.Oh no, not at all, I was just about to take my leave" Melanie said, turning to Clara" I will be inside, call me if you need me" she said.Clara gave her a nod and watched Melanie take her leave. Clara let out a sigh. If she could she would take her leave as well. She didn't want to be around this guy alone in a place like this, and she didn't want him to talk about his feelings for her either because there would never be anything between them. He was nice and nearly as handsome as Skyler but the feeling wasn't there at all. Clara went to sit on the bench and he sat next to her." I heard your coronation is in seven days" he said."Can you believe it?, It was only a few months when I was running from all of these and now I have found my song and will be queen in seven day" Clara smiled."Life is unpredictable but I'm happy you came around. The whole tribe was withering away without her q
I would really like you to be present at my coronation?" Clara said."I wouldn't miss it for the world," he said, giving her a reassuring smile.They reached the pack house and the duo made their way through the hallway when Skyler took hold of her hand and walked past the stairs that lead to their quarters. Clara wondered where they were he was taking her until they entered the large big kitchen. Clara turned to look at her mate, not exactly sure why he brought her there. The kitchen was clean and spacious with modern interior and equipment, which really surprised Clara since the pack house and interiors were mostly in Victorian style."What are we doing here?" Clara asked, her eyes scanning the man in front of her. Skyler smiled. He led her to the kitchen island and made her sit." It's been a while since we last ate together. I thought it would be nice to eat dinner together tonight" he said.'But I don't see any food, ' Clara eyed him."That's because I'm making dinner for us," he
The next day, Skyler and his mate were on their way to the pack's welfare. On reaching there, the duo stepped down from the car, Skyler went around the car and came to stand by Clara's side who looked nervous. She turned to him" what if they don't like me?"."They will love you" he told her. "Just be yourself and don't forget you have me by your side" he told her.Clara nodded. Skyler placed his hand on her back and ushered her into the building."Good morning alpha, we weren't expecting you" said the she -wolf in charge of the welfare center"Right, my mate wanted to visit the kids so I brought them," he said. Turning to face his mate" This is Tamona, the welfare director" "Ramona, meet my mate. Clara Skyler made a quick introduction."It's nice to meet you, Ramona." Clara said."It's good to meet you, Luna and welcome to the welfare. The kids are going to love you" she said. Come in" Clara and her mate followed the she- wolf, he led them into the spacious room with about 15 childr
Meanwhile, Skyler and his beta were trying to find the mole in the pack at the same time they had people searching for the witches but up till now, they hadn't found the mole nor have they been able to find the witches. Every clue ended up as a deadend.Skyler and his beta went back to the clinic where his warriors who were unable to shift were. They guys were fully recovered but were stuck in their wolf form. They made their way to a room that had been arranged for them. And they met the werewolves sitting on the mat. Skyler communicated with them through mindlink. He was relieved that the guys were understanding and didn't blame him for their condition but Skyler did blame himself, and their understanding made him feel worse. After having talked with the guys, Skyler made his way back to the pack house and entered his office to deal with some paperwork that needed handling.All the while, Skyler was worried for the pack and his mate, he failed to worry about himself, in other words,
Clara waited for Skyler to come back so they could have dinner together. After waiting for up to an hour, Clara decided to eat early to avoid indigestion.After eating, Clara waited for Skyler in the living room and she gradually fell asleep on the couch only to be woken up by the sound of the door being opened.She raised her head and saw Skyler walk in."You're back?" She said with a sleepy voice.But Skyler just walked past her without uttering a word. Clara frowned as he had never acted this way to her. She followed him into the bedroom."Sky. Is everything alright with you" she asked. Coming to stand in front of him.Skyler ignored her and continued taking off his shirt. Making Clara more confused. " Why are you not talking to me, is everything alrig__""Don't. I'm not in the mood right now and I would like to go to bed" Skyler said. He ignored her and climbed in bed without sparing Clara another look.Shocked to the core, Clara remained glued to a spot. Skyler had yelled at her,
The couple dropped Clara in front of the mansion before driving away again. Clara made her way inside the house and to her surprise the whole place was crowded with people, especially workers who were cleaning and fixing things up in the mansion.Clara made her way to the living room in low spirits. The coronation wasn't much of a concern to her. On reaching there, Nimue and her granddaughter seemed to be having a deep discussion and Clara wondered what it was about.Ahem" Clara faked a cough to get their attention and it worked. They quickly adjusted themselves on the sofa and turned to face her."Ah, Clara you are here. Come take a seat"Something was definitely off with these two. Clara sighed, I inwardly hoping that it wasn't something bad because she couldn't take any more bad news."I was hoping I could get some sleep before the big event. Do you mind me staying here for the night" Clara asked. She was tired and just wanted to lock herself in a quiet room and away from everyone
At the undiscovered place, Annette was seated with two other witches and at the corner was the outcast, Mira."I think we have waited for too long. Let's put an end to the Alpha and his abomination, "Mirable said."I agree. Balance needs to be restored" Lidia said.Mira who was sitting at the corner found it uncomfortable that the witches were planning to kill Clara and her Mate. Mira was never allowed to take part in coven activity neither was she allowed anywhere important issues were being discussed so, she didn't have much details as to why they wanted Clara and her mate dead.She was a witch herself but the others chose to treat her like an outcast for something she knew nothing about. Mira had always wondered why she was being treated like an outcast in the coven. Her brother used to be one of the strongest and respected witches in the coven. But since he died of poisoning, the coven had turned against her, especially Annette who she believed was her brother's mate.For some rea
After everything was done Clara went to look at herself in the mirror again. From the exquisite gown down to her hair style and jewelry, Clara thought she looked a noble woman from the eighties. Jewel came to stand next to her with a pair of silver heels. She crouched down and helped Clara wear it. Now that she was ready and didn't need a hand, Clara told jewel to leave and the lady bowed to her before exiting the room, leaving Clara alone by herself. Just then, the door opened from behind and Clara and Jewel turned to look in the direction. Nimue walked in looking all dressed up only that the woman was wearing the same color she had always worn. Seeing her in a gray ball gown made quite a difference, she looked younger with the hairstyle."I came to check if you are ready, everyone is waiting for you in the ballroom" Nimue said as she came to stand with Clara." Oh, dear. You are beautiful,clara. just like your mother was" Nimue smiled."Thank you" Clara sincerely. Nimue was one of t
