Rhys.

I kissed her. I fu*king kissed her, and I was losing my damn mind. That was not supposed to happen. I wasn't even supposed to crown her as my Luna.

Her eyes went wide with shock and confusion, and like the feisty cat she had always been, she lifted her hand, ready to strike my face, to slap me, in front of everyone.

' Behave. That was the final part of the swearing-in ceremony. Don't act like I wanted to kiss you so bad. I don't. ' Just before her hand could connect with my face,

  • ALMOST REJECTED; FATE'S CHOICE    Goodbyes...

    Rhys. I only had a few hours before the contest. 'Hang in there, Sabrina...' ' I will come for you..' I whispered as I drifted off to sleep. The former Queen had told me to eat light, but with my frying nerves, how much could I possibly eat? I had ended up taking a few bites, drinking plenty of water, and going to bed earlier. The next morning, the morning of the contest, I was long up before Jake came knocking on my door. " Slept well?" He sounded nervous as he asked, his voice laced with so much tension that you would think he was the contestant and not me. Yeah. For a person whose fate was hanging on a super thin thread, I had slept too well, I would say. " Let's head out.." He didn't even give me time to respond before he instructed. " The contest will begin in about an hour. You need to be there earlier enough." He urged, nervously, motioning for us to leave. I didn't stoll either. And I wasn't going to lie. I was a hell of nerves, so many what if

    Rhys. " At least now you will have options." She mumbled, sounding disturbed with the earlier excitement diming for a moment. " With your Phantom Alpha abilities, you can now be a royal member without having to go through with the contest." She added, forcing a smile. " But that will come at a different cost." She stated, and my heart clenched. Why was I not so surprised, though? This was the royal palace.. Everything had a hidden cost. Did they really have to make life so complicated? " What cost?" I chalked down the bitterness in my throat as I asked. " You might have to let the council know about your newly discovered abilities. " She took a pause, as if she was mentally assessing tbe situation, before proceeding. "Of course, your name will be doused with prestige, they will introduce you as a new addition to the royal family, and you will get to enjoy all the glory that comes with it, but.." She paused, and I clenched my fingers at the 'but' I didn't e

    Rhys. "Sleep early. " Jake instructed, already walking away, and I nearly scoffed. Sleep early? It was already hours past midnight. How earlier could that get? Well, he didn't seem to notice, and even if he did, he didn't seem to care, either. " You are a Phantom Alpha." " You are a Phatom Alpha." . He was mumbling to himself, as he paced back and forth in the room, and at some point, he lifted his head to face me, the expression on his face unreadable. " You don't seem to get it, Rhys!" He added, with an incredulous face. " This is js big.." He whispered, more to himself than to me. " This changes everything. " He added, and I shot him a questioning look. " With this gift, you might not actually have to take the contest." He explained, wearing a wide smile. " Sleep early. " " The Queen has to know. " He instructed, and with that, he was already gone. I was left there, standing in the balcony, buried deep in thoughts, but with a sense of dread coil

  • ALMOST REJECTED; FATE'S CHOICE    The Queen has to know.

    Rhys. " I honestly don't know how you survived something that almost killed your father..." he wasn't even looking at me as he spoke. His voice was low, a mixture of mild pride and disbelief. Honestly, I understood why he was so worked up..If I hadn't managed to get out of that mirage, I probably would have ended in a far worse situation than my father's. From how quickly things were progressing, the pain, the buzzing in my ears, the darkness that was slowly creeping in, the consciousness that was slowly fading away, and the suffocation, another second there and it would have been a miracle if I would have ended up as just a cripple. Yes. I would have been lucky to come out as s cripple. From the pain that had consumed me, I had sensed it, death so near that it had been practically chocking me. And, I might have never seen my father at his prime, but after going through such kind of a torture, I would give a standing ovation to anyone who went through it and came out

    Rhys. " In over a million people that have ever been subjected through phantom fury..." He squeezed out, his eyes reddening. So, the person was called a phantom Alpha. And the act itself was Phantom Fury? I nodded, as it dawned on me. Jake looked out through the open balcony. He was seemingly taking a moment to recompose himself. That topic seemed like a sore spot to him. " There has only ever been one person to survive that hell." he whispered, swallowing a bitter lump. One person in a million? Well, I think I was the second one in history, then? "But that person was left nearly crippled.." He squeezed out, his eyes reddening at his words and reading the room, my heart clenched. He couldn't have been talking about himself, could he? But he wasn't crippled...Crippled. . I bitterly clenched my fingers at the words. I had come to hate that name and everything attached to it..From Jake's words the other day, Sabrina had been crippled too. Surely, it wasn't

    Rhys. " Because she is this Kingdom's Crown Jewel. " He whispered, his voice shaking with something that sounded like fear? respect? well, with the splash of venom in his eyes, it was impossible to read his true feelings. Kingdom's Crown Jewel? I raised my brows as I tasted the word on my lips. It sounded divine, dramatic, even. " She is a Phatom Alpha." Reading through the confusion in my face, he added, and instead of the second set of explanations shedding light into the situation, it only added more confusion. A phantom Alpha? That name sounded vaguely familiar. .Like a forbidden tale I had heard being whispered in hushed tones, over winter fireplaces... It sounded like something that you were sure you knew, and yet, you didn't fully understand. " What's a phantom Alpha?" I found myself asking, curiosity pricking my nerves. " A phantom Alpha?" He asked, wearing a small smile, adopting a thoughtful posture. " In simple terms, your grandmother is a phanto

    Sabrina. " There is something else, actually." Just before they could all catch their breaths, I cut in, as I peeled my gaze from my father-in-law, aiming it at my father. 'What now, Sabrina! Haven't you caused enough trouble already?' Frustrated to the max, Rhys couldn't tolerate me any lo

    Sabrina. " Speaking about your father, I found something out," Ivy revealed, looking visibly disturbed, with a hint of hesitation on her face. She had always been calm. She was the calmest person I have ever met. For her to be so worked up, something must have been terribly wrong. Looking a

    Rhys. Looking at her tear-streaked face, her slender and shaking frame, my resolve wavered, momentarily, clouding my reasons. " Please, forgive me, Rhys. " Upon receiving no response, she went on, pleading, begging. " No, Amery." Cold and emotionless, my voice rang out, startling even her.

    Sabrina. " I will break up with Amery Fords." " I will sign the agreement contract!" He squeezed past his tightly clenched lips, the anger on his face palpable. Well, naturally, a beautiful smile blossomed on my lips, and I shot him a very pleased grin, my spirits buoying. ' I am very
