Desi looked around the area and it was beautiful. There were trees that lines the water way that was after the dock where the boat was. There were small villages everywhere you can see the tops of the roof of all the houses. In the middle on the island it looked like there was the large castle. on each side of where the water metal and there were large smaller versions of the main castle in the middle of the island. It was quite easy to see how the area had grown up with just this particular types of families. These were the seven ruling families of all over their kind.
desi didn't exactly know how she felt when it came to seeing all this was like the first time. She didn't care that she was born here. She was still confused as to why she was taken away even though Gabriel had explained it to her why was no other of the children taken? she had a lot of questions that needed to be answered and she hoped that maybe one day she would be able to get those answers. Right now she was just taking in the beautiful sights around her.
“It is something isn't it?” give me last this is him bound its way to her back to help raise her out.
“it is the most beautiful things I've ever seen.” she replied as she looked at him. There was a calming scent around him though she wasn't quite sure how she actually felt with the idea that they were supposed to be mates. This close relationship that probably would have ground to be even closer if they had been raised together with stone nothing to her at the moment. He was a stranger. She didn't even know most of the ways about their own kind. She had been raised without a pack for so long that it wasn't like it was going to be second nature for her to start ruling.
“what's going on in your mind? I can feel here anxiety building up around you.” Gabriel said as he looked at her knowing that poor girl had not had the same type of life that he had. he had been looking for her for a few years now knowing that he would probably have to have her back acclimated to the kind of life that she should have been living her entire life. He and his parents had been fighting over this for years. He didn't even need to look into the Book of Records to be able to remember who was his mate. He could remember from the day she was taken away.
it had cars to huge issue within the ranks in their family. Gabriel did not understand why Desiree had been taken away to this day. Now isn't exactly the way of their world and he understood that more than anything. There was some kind of threat to her that even he didn't understand. Though his parents have never actually let him in on it he knew that he was going to have to travel the world to find her. Otherwise he was going to be mateless for the rest of his life.
“thinking about other things I should be doing I really don't have a clue as to what goes on here. I'm going to have to learn a lot and I hope that whoever my teacher is is patient. I don't think I'm never going to understand how to be a ruler like this.” decided she looked up into his eyes. She was glad that he was staying in his human form for this. She didn't exactly like it when everybody around her transformed into the creatures that they were made to be. They knew that they were different than every other human but this was not something that she enjoyed seeing or doing. She preferred to be human more than anything else.
“you'll be the type of ruler that you are supposed to be.” he said with a smile. “you look like your mother. I don't even remember a lot about her but I do remember what she looked like. It was so long ago but it also seems like just yesterday. I do remember a few things about her she was fun to be around. She didn't like the transformation times period she actually hated them varian I have a feeling that you must be the same way.”
“I don't like them. I like being what I am.” does it these mail did not add knowing that a lot of what he could remember list probably how she was going to be without even knowing her mother.
“my mother can tell you more about your mother. However I understand that you probably don't want to get that attached to anybody. Maybe in time that you'll feel like where your actual family.” he said as he continued to help her walk up the dock to the man l'acqua that would take them to the middle of the island.
it was going to be a big hike to get there and as he was still tired. They didn't seem that there were that many cars on the island or any other type of transport. Then she kind of thought to herself of course they wouldn't be there where wolves. They could literally walk and run anywhere. however he was refraining from changing himself just because she was right there next to him. And knew that she didn't want to do it that way. This was going to take an adjustment period For both of them. but it seemed like he was willing to work with her.
She looked around the island again and saw it unequivocal beauty that was there all around them. She knew that this was going to be something that was a new adventure. She might actually find out more about herself as well. she knew that she would probably find out more about him. He said that he was only four years older than she was but though he seemed a lot older. This wasn't going to be something then she could just brush off and move on with her life somewhere else. She had spent her entire life on the edge of her pack. She needed to know more about herself and this was the way that she was going to learn. Then she could make up her mind on whether she wanted to leave or not.
“Tell me more about yourself.” Gabriel said as they continued walking through the trails that led to what looked like the main castle. she could see the turrets through the trees and knew that they were getting closer to the area there would still be quite a bit of a huge hike to get there.“there really isn't that much to tell.” Desiree said as she looked at him and then continued to look back down at the ground varian everything in her life had pretty much been a huge lie up until that point. She didn't actually know anything about herself because of it.“Tell me about the pack that you were with?” he then said as he was just trying to get any type of information from her. It seemed that she wanted to close off and he could actually understand that he might not get through to her today or even next week. What is this girl happened to go through with something that was extremely traumatic.&l
“I understand that you don't wanna go to the castle because you don't understand our way of life. How would you like it if I took you somewhere else?” he asked as he looked at her knowing that that was probably one of her biggest fears. he had already uprooted her life bye having her taken the way that she was. He had not really thought the entire plan through when he had begun the orders for it. All he could think about was his own desire to have his meat by his side.“like where?” she asked if she looked at him knowing that he could take her just about anywhere in the world and it still wouldn't matter. She would always feel like she was an outcast because she didn't know where she came from or even what her family was really like. Everything had just been ripped from her. Everything that she knew that was familiar was gone.“there's a cottage on the outside of the village. We use it to house gas but I believe
“True mates?” The question hung in the air as they made their way to the cottage that was somewhat hidden from the castle even though it was in plain sight. The air had changed as they got closer. It seemed even the small house that was there was full of secrets that she knew that she should know. She was not ready for this. She knew she had no other choice. This was her destiny.He opened the door and she walked in and then she was hit with overwhelming emotions. The house it self seemed to be the one thing that was overwhelming her. She was hit like she hah been slammed into a brick wall. There was such an overwhelming feeling of regret in the house that she didn't even understand where it came from. It seemed that things were just completely being thrown at her one at a time and there was no way for her to get away from all of the feeling that she was feeling at the moment. He seemed to understand that this was going to happen and he was rea
After the first wave of emotion came over her she was able to settle down a little bit. Desiree had never felt quite like this before and she knew that she had a lot of things to work through. She looked around the small house and even though it was nothing more than a small cottage it was probably still bigger than every house that she had lived in so far. She knew that everything in her life had been a lie. It was dealing with all of that as well as finding out the truth about her parents and the woman that she had thought was her mother.She was also working enough to understand that Gabriel was not trying to force her into understanding anything. He wasn't moving very far away from her but at the same time he was giving her enough space that she said at least begin to process everything that she had just learned. He knew that it was going to be a long period of time before she would actually be able to completely understand all of the intricaci
Gabriel didn't know how long it was going to take for her to come to the conclusion she was part of this island. That she would feel comfortable enough to actually be at the castle. he knew that he needed to get the most basic supplies so they would be able to survive while she came to grips with her new reality. he was going to have to go and find some food at the council for them to take.it wouldn't be the first time that he had raided the kitchen and the pantries but he hoped that Desiree had at least the ability to cook a little bit since he really didn't know how. He didn't wanna leave her either but he knew that he had to. “I'm going to run to the castle real quick. I'll be back in a few minutes I'll bring back food is there anything that you want specifically?” he asked as he broke the silence at the two of them headlight grow in the small room.“no there isn't anything specific that I want.” Desiree said as she looked at h
When Gabriel go back to the small cottage he saw that the door was open. He had to wonder if it was actually Desiree who had open the door at all. He hoped that it had been and nobody had been there to give her any trouble. He didn't actually wanna have to deal with anyone invading their privacy for a little while at least. That's why he didn't wanna push her to go into the castle. He knew that she needed time to adjust to her new surroundings and her new reality that was her life. If things had been different and she had been raised on the island she would be at the castle right now. On her 18th birthday she would have been transferred over to him. Do they didn't really have a real ceremony of that happening he would have taking the responsibility of her then. when he neared the door he saw her just sitting there still within the cottage but I'm for just looking out. “is everything OK?” he asked as he walked into the cottage and placed everythi
“why would you wanna know about that?” knowing that that was going to open a bunch of wounds that she really didn't need to deal with right then and there. She already had enough to deal with with realizing that pretty much her entire life had been a lie. There was a lot of things that he would say to her and he would never hold anything back just because she had the right to know what was going on for their people. Whether she realized it or not she was already there Princess. There was a lot of things that she needed to come to grips with because he was basically what would be the equivalent of a crowned Prince and they were already given to each other by their parents. An arranged marriage of sorts. He understood that she had the right to know but at the same time everything was coming to her so quickly that it was going to be an issue with the way that she had to deal with things. Mentale he didn't know if she was able to comprehend all of the small details that w
“Tell me about them.” She said softly.“Your parents?” he asked. Then he realized that he had opened this can of worms himself. She really had no idea how her parents were. She didn’t know them. “your mother was one of the nicest people I'd ever met. She was my godmother. She was my mother's best friend. They were cousins I believe. Most likely they were distant cousins though. Your mother was one of those people dead it didn't matter how distant the relationship was it was always there.”“What about my father?” Desiree asked as she looked at him and was hoping that the man was nice and that he had actually enjoyed being a father.“he was a little difficult but for the most part he was one of those people that would get down and play with everybody. He did it on you. When everybody had said that you should have been a male heir he didn't care period I remember him carrying you around when
