Conrad POV

Lewana's interview was about to start. I had left for the meeting but came back through the forest to come into my study window with the help of Sherman. I decided not to tell her that I was in the house and listening because if anything gave it away I would never know what the council was trying to do. I would never find out how they would truly treat her.

Nightstalker had put in cameras and audio in the room that feedback to my laptop. This way, I had a clear recording if they tried to deny anything later or tried to play it off as a misunderstanding.

As I listened, I became more horrified. They were blaming her for the abuse. They were treating all of her best attributes as burdens. They even said she would be an awful mother.

That's when he said it. Alpha Williams's voice, was clear as day.

“I bet she is lying about the abuse. An Aplha I know was one of her suitors and he recounted her joyful moans when he visited”.

  • Balance of Light and Shadow   Chapter 77

    Lewana POVWhile the mostly polite conversation was happening at the other end of the table I started to hear strange noises that don't belong in a forest. Very light footsteps and hushed whispers. But many of them. Not a rogue attack. Something else. Conrad instantly picked up on my changed expression and noticed I was listening to something. "What is it Lewana". That was when I heard the tiny voice and I couldn't help the smile that crossed my face. "Apologies your Highnesses. We appear to have a minor security breach. It appears that a pack of pups have snuck out and are trying to sneak up on us from the south. They are trying to see if the beautiful fairy princess is real or if we made it up".Rose instantly lights up at this compliment. Faes always admire the innocence of children which is why they tend to show themselves around them.Cordelia starts clawing at Conrad's arm again while overspeaking everyone at the table again. "Well, MY Alpha King will stay here and protect

    Conrad POVAfter the educational session with Lewana, Liam and I went straight to work. If this was a test, and by the sounds of it the balance of the world was at stake, I had to ace it. Liam instantly turns to me with his game face on. "OK. So what do we know". "There are nature creatures so assuming a good topic of discussion would be things like protecting the forest in our territory, green energy projects, our eco-farming". "I also know Lewana had ordered vegan food and family style setting with no servants. If they truly did refuse to leave the forest they are probably very self-reliant so it will probably be more like a dinner with Mary". "Right. What do you think I should wear. Don't think a 3-piece suit will fit with the nature theme. Will need to be more casual". "Agreed. And go barefoot as Lewana most likely will". After hours of perfecting my appearance, topic discussion, and how they might want me to act I think I was ready. I head down to the forest clearing by mys

    Lewana POVI wake up the next morning safe in Conrad's arms. I ran out of tears and passed out from exhaustion in the living room and he carried me to his bed to protect me for the night. I woke early and just went to sit by the window to watch the sunrise. I was only up about 10 minutes when I could feel Conrad's panic starting to rise at not feeling me in the bed next to him. "It's OK Shadow. I'm just over here". He wakes up with a scowl across his face. He stomps over to me, picks me up as if I weigh nothing, and takes me back to bed like a child who has lost their cuddly toy."I wasn't going anywhere. I was just thinking about everything we have to do today". He instantly started to protest. "You left the bed. That means you went somewhere". I just lay in silence and kept thinking about today. Conrad eventually looks down at me in the bed with a concerned look. "Are you worried about today". "Just a lot can go wrong. Look how yesterday went". Conrad just pulls me in for a c

    Trigger Warning - Mention of child abuseLewana POV The house feels empty today. At least I think it's the house. It might just be me that feels empty. Conrad is out for the day so the council has scheduled my interview today. I know they purposely booked it for when he was out of the house so he wasn’t here to support me. To make me more vulnerable. I was waiting outside feeling the anxiety rise in me as I knew this was going to be brutal. I know they called it an interview but I knew mine would be an interrogation. And I had to be polite about it. Donovan walks up to me, all smiles, but I know he's playing a part. “Lady Lewana. The council will see you now”.I walk in and instantly see all four pairs of judging eyes staring at me. Staring at me like I was a waste of space in their perfect world so they had to destroy me. I had to hold my head up high as I had to do this. I had to prove I could stand up to them. Alpha Anthony is the first to speak. “Lady Lewana. As you know the co

    Lewana POVToday is the day Conrad has all of his scheduled dates with the candidates. I wait around as I know Cordelia is first and he is going to need to see me afterwards. That's when I tell him my plan. Unfortunately, he is not going to like it. "What do you mean you are going into the forest unescorted". "You heard Princess Rose. She wants to talk to me. She not going to talk freely if I have someone with me". "Then you're not going. You remember the rogue army right. The ones that attacked us and tried to take you a few days ago". I look at him with loving eyes and I can understand his panic and see the fear beneath his. "Shadow. I am going to stay within the territory. I will avoid being close to any boundaries and I will stay in contact. Also Rose has her own ways of protecting me as well". I give him a kiss on the lips and make the promise. "I will always come back to you Shadow". I turn and walk off to the forest knowing he is watching me walk away. I never really kno
