LOGINRhys. After my conversation with Uncle Jake, the rest of the walk was completed in a daze, and it was not until we stepped inside the Council's chambers that I snapped out of it . The room was dimly lit, and yet, with the use of my wolf's eyes, I was able to make out the faces. Sadly, they were all unfamiliar faces, with an exception of one particular face, the former Alpha King's, His grace, Alpha King Magnus. The moment I stepped in, their eyes turned to me, their gazes sharpened by curiosity and ...animosity? I couldn't tell. "Esteemed Council." I took a bow as I acknowledged, before the earlier guard wordlessly led me to the stage. There, they all had a clear view of me and thank goddess for the strict Alpha training and the royal blood in me... Otherwise, I would have caved in under all the pressure. The next minutes were spent in silence, and after standing for so long, after withstanding their strong and intimidating aura for what felt like ages, thin bea
Rhys. Before leaving, I waited until some she-wolf approached Sabrina, and it was not until she had someone that she seemed comfortable enough with that I finally relaxed and strode after the royal guard. I didn't know where we were headed to, but since I was posing as Theus, who I actually knew absolute nothing about, and whom I also assumed was very familiar with the royal palace, I had to act composed as I walked next to the guard. The walk from the arena to the Council's chambers seemed like an endless stretch, and we seemed to have walked like forever before we saw a familiar face.. It was Uncle Jake.. The sight of his familiar face had relief painting my fearures. I had so many questions that I needed to ask before I met with the royal coucil, and he was the only person, aside from Queen Rosa, who had the answers. " Can I have a moment with my niece?" He asked, his voice serious as he faced the royal guard, and after a moment of a silent battle, with thick tens
Rhys. "There isn't much to my name, actually. " She whispered, a sad smile tagging at the corners of her lips, and I was literally itching to pull her into my arms and soothe the pain away. But I couldn't, not even as Rhys or as Theus. As Rhys, I long lost the right to be close to her, and as Theus, we weren't there yet. Now, I could only watch with clenched fingers as she got consumed with whatever bitterness she was wallowing in.. I had never regretted having been an assh*le to her before than I currently did. I guess the pain that she was going through was way deeper than words could actually explain.. " But you, on the other hand, seem very interesting, General Theus. " She stated, a small and unreadable smile playing on her lips, and for some reason, I became nervous. " So tell Rhys Callum," She squeezed out, her eyes red with anger, the previous smile wiped from her lips. Rhys Callum? For a moment, I thought I had missheard, but the anger in her eyes told

Rhys. " Congratulations to us..." She whispered, smiling, a clear blush coating her cheeks, and looking at her, then repeating the words that she had just said, I found myself grinning. I know... I know it looked ridiculous, especially in my condition, covered in sweat and dried blood, and clothes almost torn, but how could I not be happy? The congratulations to us almost sounded like a dream .. To us... To me and Sabrina.. it was almost unbelievable. After everything that I had gone through, the pain, the tough decisions to cut ties with my parents, and then hearing her whispering a 'us', the joy was almost immeasurable. And once again, I was fighting to stop myself from pulling her into my arms, locking my lips with hers, and sealing the moment with a kiss. But I held myself. If I became too eager, she would probably start getting suspicious. I couldn't let that happen. I had already lost her once, as Rhys...Now as Theus, I couldn't lose her again. "
Rhys. . At some point, I felt like my brains were fraying. I couldn't even open my eyes... I was in so much pain that I couldn't even produce a sound. In the beginning, I thought I was still in control. I had assumed that I could still manipulate the elements if things got worse, only to realise later that I couldn't. I was in so much pain that I couldn't afford a millisecond of focusing. Manipulating needed focus.. Then I decided to endure, and especially when I recalled Sabrina's joyous smile, I couldn't bring myself to give up, not yet... I stubbornly withstood, each second feeling like the last, but holding on, regardless. Then slowly, the darkness started creeping in, and instead of panicking, relief washed over me. Compared to the hell that I was in, the unknown sounded enticing, very enticing.. Then the pain disappeared, and my surroundings started changing. The bushes and the trees, they all faded away as another place welcomed me. Sea of peop
Sabrina. Foreign calmness surrounded me, punctuated by deep silence, save for the gentle hums of our hearts. It was my Mom and me. She was in her study, meticulously polishing her jewellery pieces while I sat on the side couch, silently watching her. Occasionally, she would flash a smile my
Sabrina. Everything happened so quickly that for a brief moment, I couldn't react. In just about a heartbeat, I was pushed to the side, bruised, in pain, but somehow the pain didn't register. Then a wave of panic washed over me as I stared at Rhys. A raw growl escaped from his clenche
Sabrina. Thick tension stretched heavily around us, and as I sat on the cold bench, my frame trembled, from both fear and frustration. Fear of losing him. And the frustration of knowing I cared. Yes. I hated him, but I didn't know how deeply I cared about him until he took the dagger for
Sabrina. " You surely took your sweet time. " He sneered as he rose to his feet, taking measured steps towards me, and he looked like he wanted to intimidate me. He had been expecting me, and it looked like he had been waiting for me for some time. Which wasn't surprising. He knew me well en
