~Ioana~

"It must be hard being a queen…" he spoke with a sigh.

"Well…" my words hung awkwardly in the air. What could I say to such a statement? He brought the spoon to my lips and I sipped, little-by-little contemplating.

"It's not." Finally, I shook my head, denying.

He gave me a long look. It seemed to contain a thousand words but he opted for, "I think it is. You were unconscious when they brought you in…" He placed the spoon down. "You didn't see the way they reacted even hours later while you were in a coma, like the heavens were about to crash."

I chuckled, then coughed a couple of times. "Isn't that a good thing?" I smiled.

"It’s supposed to be—that is, if they were concerned about you it would have been touching."

My heart dropped. I gave him a look. "What do you mean?" I replied drily, moving my eyes away.

"I mean what I said, Queen. No one asked for your well-being." He paused, cocked his head to the side. "Actually, they did but—" he shook his head, "it's different." He gr

  • His Captive, His Mate, His Queen    Chapter 68: Butterfly To Web

    ~Ioana~"Ramon tried to kill me?" I thought, blood drained off my face.My head turned to him mechanically, I couldn't believe what I just heard, a ringing in my ears.I didn't want to believe it.We were just talking right now, I remembered how I chuckled, how his eyes lit up with a warmth that made my stomach twist. Everything wasn't perfect, but it was good, so… how could he, who did all these, try to… kill me?Just the thought alone made my fingers tremble, I fisted them under the blanket to control it, but I couldn’t.When? Where? The words rotated round my mind.At the same time, Ramon countered,"You seek to smear my reputation, prince," his face contorted into a frown."Yes Ioana, maybe it's a rumour, maybe it's a lie," I whispered, speaking to myself. I wasn’t sure if it was to calm my pounding heart or drive away the chill that broke out all over my skin.But Alessandro’s next words shattered my pitiful attempt to shield my mind, the corners of his lips curled in what seemed

  • His Captive, His Mate, His Queen    Chapter 66: The Hands That Held Me

    ~Ioana~…Her Highness… later… she's…Sounds flittered through my ears.The moment I opened my eyes, white flowy drapes dangled before my eyes. They swayed with the wind.I have to see… the voice came again then came to a halt,I see. It said.I shifted my eyes away from the drapes. Where was I? I scrunched my brows in confusion. How did I get here? A sense of déjà vu slammed into me.The last thing I recall was meeting up with Ramon in the streets and then I ran away in panic, eager to get away from the prying eyes.To… the forest—oh that's right. Ramon called it the lower rings.And after that, my lips tugged upwards, a smile blossoming. I remember the freedom I've never experienced before, my heartstrings were strung.And then. We had a run and afterward, a chill spread, dousing my excitement—the suffocation, how I struggled, but the water weighed down on me, my sight blurred, I was dying. My hands flew to my throat, I gasped, greedily breathing in.My throat closed as if someone cl

  • His Captive, His Mate, His Queen    Chapter 65: "You Hesitated… Is That Your Love"

    ~Ioana~A force rested on my chest, it pressed down, quick then released, it happened for the second… third time.On my chest—but something was odd, it covered more than my chest, even my—'Huu.' My eyes snapped open, I woke up with a jolt, my stomach twisted immediately. I turned to my side, letting out water from my lungs, it stung.Coughing.My chest rose and fell with each breath.Before I could understand what happened, arms scooped me up from the ground, into warm embrace. That's when I realized how chilly my skin was against the surface of his skin.I took in deep, greedy breaths. "There, there," someone patted my back. My lashes fluttered, vision blurred into focus, but it wasn't crystal clear. Even the moon looked like a big fuzzy luminous ball. Turning my head to the side—My breath came out as a slight wheeze, but I could make out a figure some distance away from me, and another. I traced the arms holding me upward.Thump.My heart skipped. I couldn't make out his facial fe

  • His Captive, His Mate, His Queen    Chapter 64: If I Had Wings

    ~Ioana~Sometimes I wondered why I was never a bird. During gloomy days like that, nursing my bruised body, I would crawl, little by little, pulling myself to the tiny hole I called window.Peering through it, I would watch as the birds spread their feathers, with a single flap, pushed off from the Gia, and into the sky.Fear? Spread your wings and fly far away.If I had wings? I would never be hurt, I would reason, dreaming of the impossible.And right now.As the wind whipped past my ears, my heart plunged to my stomach, pounding.Thud thud.Blurry images slept past me. It was dark, like a tunnel. I could barely make out things, and worst? I was slipping—falling to what perhaps could be my death. Once more, that childhood dream resurfaced.If only I had wings.But reality slapped me in the face.No wings sprang from my back.And I continued my descent.I had to do something about it.I stretched out my paws, reaching for the thick tendril hanging. The pad of my paw touched it, but t

    ~Ioana~"Alessandro."Was that how his wolf looked like? Just like his humanoid form, he towered over me, muscles well outlined. My head cocked to the side. I wanted to get close to see—his black fur looked so soft, the way the wind carried it.I put one leg—no, one paw—before the other, silently chanting, step by step, right paw, left paw, cheering when I didn't stumble.Golden eyes followed me, trailing after my form with such intensity it made me bothered—but not in a bad way. In fact, a tiny part of me craved it.Not that I'll ever admit to it.He put one forelimb before the other, muscles contracted then released. The forest itself seemed to hold its breath just like I did.Then.A glimpse of something mischievous flickered through his eyes.Wait, mischievous? That couldn't be right… right?Alessandro let out a low growl. I swore my fur stood erect, zaps of electricity running through me."Do you know the next thing parents do after their pup has morphed and adapted?" he threw th
