Tonight is the night we meet up with the leaders of our allies and finalise everything. Tonight was also the night to finish touch up with the preparation towards the event and of course, I was a core person on the field.But one was more important to me and I had to be there. I was able to excuse myself and leave when no one was noticing.I covered myself in railen that disguised my personality and groped in the darkness towards the secret place we were meeting.Not long after I had gotten to the woods, I had a feeling someone was after me. I brushed it off at first, thinking my brain was just making up stuff.But the feeling was persistent, and now I could literally hear the footsteps faintly behind me. I have to do something about this.Someone must have gotten suspicious of me and followed me. I did not know who it was and what exactly his or her deal would be but I knew I had to, by all means, lose them.<- Giselle -My mind went off for a moment, but not like I could not tell what was happening. I just did not know what to make out of it.For Xavier and Cleopatra to lay ambush and jump out suddenly out of nowhere? My answer was not far-fetched. The only thing that was far from me was the fact that Kira had brought me here.There must be a sort of mistake somewhere, I tried to convince myself so I wouldn't have to think the obvious that Kira had brought me here intentionally. She had planned this with them.But she had said she was sorry the instant they came out. This...was just too much to assimilate."Giselle," Cleopatra called smoothly, walking slowly towards me. "You think you are so mighty now and nothing can get you. But you let power get into your head, and you have forgotten so soon that those who get high there should not just trust anybody. You are not even fit to be at the top because you don't know what it takes to be there.""I fought to be where I am," I replied slowly i
- Cleopatra -I knew I was getting her when her face suddenly went pale as I spoke about that so I continued."He should know how you caught Gissele in the hideout and gave her up to the elders," I said with a subtle grin. "I don't think even Franklin knows about that one. He should be interested too.""Cleopatra you are going too far with this," she shrieked."Oh, am I?" I stretched out my hands questioningly. "Because you know, a while ago, we were talking about letting things go so we'd be in unity with our siblings, but how can we do that if we don't confess everything we've done?""You made me do it all," she cried. "It was all you.""But will your father believe that?" I pointed out. "You were the one at the central not me. You went there to report your sister's plans to Frederick to have her killed because you hated her so much.""Stop it," she placed her hands on her ears. "Just stop it please.""Yet you
- Kira -I sat on a cool spot under the large tree in the compound where the royals go to sit and relax. I went with my basket and took out the clothes I was knitting for Giselle's twins. I have not given her any one of them yet, but whenever I had free time, that was what I loved to do.If I were to give her the dresses and something went wrong somewhere, I would regret it. I can only wait for time to determine what I do with these.I was seated there for a while in the quiet, busy with my knitting, when I felt someone hovering over me. I looked up and saw Cleopatra.I jumped to my feet and greeted her. She barely answered but I did not care. I quickly made for my basket to leave."Stay," she said. "I want to have a word with you."I dropped back the basket and waited."Sit," she ordered. I did not want to have this conversation with her, but at the same time, I did not want to disregard her, so I sat down while she too
- Kira -"You have improved greatly these past few days and I would like you to take on more contracts," Giselle was telling me. "It will require you to visit some prominent packs so you can hold series of meetings. In fact, most of the leaders are already looking forward to meeting you after hearing of your impact. Your name is going viral. You should take this opportunity."Even though I heard everything she said, my mind was clouded with other thoughts as I wondered why I would do Xavier's bidding, destroying this beautiful thing that was growing because of my relationship with Giselle.Is this something I want to throw away? At first, I thought I was certain I would never give in to the thought no matter what they say. But it was not as easy as I thought. I was beginning to pay attention to it."Kira?" She shook me gently and I jerked up."Okay? What's wrong? You have been off the conversation for a while now. What are you thinking about?""It's nothing actually," I lied. "And I h
