"What solution?" Kace asked, even though his wolf growl in protest that he should mark her and claim her as theirs so she wouldn't try anything. He couldn't help but wonder how the Alpha and the King held out for months, while only a few days felt like he would die soon... It was like torture because her scent kept clouding his thoughts... Her sweet scent.. "I'm not sure if you are going to like it, but since you refused to reject me, we have no other choice. can I come in? " Kace nodded and made way for her to enter his house, but as soon as she stepped in, her scent engulfed him, and he almost drew her into his arms. He had to take a few steps away from her...Saphira noticed the change in his demeanour but said nothing... "You have to mark me." She blurted out, and she could see the shocked expression that had formed on his face... "What!" "it's not what you think. I'm not accepting to be your mate. If you mark me, then we can try to break the mate bond between us permanently...
Diana appeared and the pack house and walked in to see everywhere quiet. where was everyone? Just as she was about to go upstairs to look for the Alpha. she was Lilith coming from the top of the stairs. "Diana, you are back," Lilith said in relief when she saw the witch. "This is something going on. why is everywhere so quiet? " Diana asked and started to go up the stairs... "The king is here with his mate." Lilith answered, and Diana was a little surprised that Liam was at the pack house. she had thought he would convince Joan to follow him back to the Palace... "But something is wrong. I think you need to see for yourself, " Lilith added, and Diana quickly claimed up the stairs and followed after the healer. she stopped in front of the guest room, where Joan was with her the king and pushed open the door. Liam, who was seated at the looked up when he heard the door open and saw Diana... "You are finally back," Liam said and sighed in relief... Maybe she could explain to them about
"How long do we have to wait here?" Lilac asked when the sun started to go down. her mother and brothers had been inside Diana's house for hours but yet to come out. she was worried and curious at the same time. why did the Queen come to Diana's house with her children, without any guards... What were they doing in there, and was Diana really pregnant for Johnathan. Where was Connor... She had so many questions that needed answers... "I think we should wait..." Alice started but trailed off when the door to the house opened and revealed The Queen and her children, but this time Diana was carrying the baby in her arms... Diana was really young and not like the Diana she knew. she looked like a different person. there wasn't this fierceness there. She looked soft... "We have to find the grimoire. that is the only way we can save them from what is to come, " Diana said, and the Queen nodded. "Thank you. I will be back in a few hours." The Queen knelt in front of Devon and Liam and hugged
Diana carried Lilac to the Queen Lilac immediately stopped crying, causing both women to smile at one another. "When should we start, the king will be back tomorrow morning so we have to leave soon" The Queen said and Diana stood up and disappeared in the back room of her house. she came back with a smaller book in her hands and started to flip the pages till she finally arrived at the page she was looking for. "From what his written here, they will be born once again, but this time each of the children of the prophecy will be mates to the children of the Royal family, so they can be protected... We have to make sure Devon is the first" Diana said and fhe Queen turned to look at Devon who had immediately hid behind his mother when Diana mentioned his name... "its okay darling don't be afraid, Diana here just wants to help you, so you can wait till you find your mate... Don't you want to find your mate" Little Devon turned towards Alice again like he could see her before he nodded and
Lilac's eyes slowly fluttered open and was met with the white celing of the guest room of her brothers pack. Where was she? She slowly turned and saw Johnathan still unconscious beside her, and then she saw Lilith, who was slowly dozing off... "Lilith," Lilac said. Her name softly and the healer eyes flew open. She became wide awake. "Your highness!" Lilith said and stood up. She immediately stormed out of the room to call the king and Alpha before Lilac could say anything to her, and Lilac sighed deeply. Johnathan slowly started to stir, and his eyes fluttered open too. "Where are we?" He asked, and Lilac answered,"My brother's pack. " She got up from the bed and Johnathan got up also and followed her out of the room. They met Alice on the way out of her room too... "What about joan" Alice said and then they all saw Joan climbing up the stairs with Devon, Liam and Lilith... "You are all awake" Devon said in relief... Lilac stepped forward a deep frown on her face, she needed immed
"Everyone Seems to be happy right don't they. they have a baby on the way... The king has his luna, but here I am living my life in rage of what they did to me, isn't it funny" Hazel said as she had coraline stood at the balcony of Coraline's house. It was dark outside already and it was a particularly cool evening. "You chose to live in rage, nobody asked you to" Coraline said and chuckled a bit. "if you know you were going to be like this then you should have killed them when you add the chance. you had many chances but you wasted them plotting and extravagant revenge. you lost all your allies because of that and now you are sitting her with me." She continued, not caring if her words were like a knife to Hazel... "if I were one of your allies I would be plotting for a way to kill you and not the lycans. you do know you deserve whatever is happening to you right. So let me put this simply. You are mad because your Ex found his mate and wants to be with her not you. you wasted the
Lilac propped herself up with her elbow and sighed. she didn't know how to feel about Jonathan's reaction.. She didn't even know how to feel about what she it... She was shocked as she was, but she couldn't ignore it anymore and thought it was time for him to know instead of hiding it from him any longer. "Are you sure?" Johnathan managed to say after almost a minute, and she shook her head. Lilac shifted and placed her back on the head wood of the bed. "I'm not completely sure, maybe about seventy per cent." She ran her through her hair and sighed again... "I'm sorry... this is really unexpected. " Johnathan immediately took her hand in his."Why are you sorry... you don't have to be... we will see a healer first thing tomorrow, okay?" He said softly. She nodded and laid back down. She was wide awake now staring at the ceiling of the room. She knew Johnathan was wide awake now, too. she had given him something to think about through the entire night. Alice, baby, on the way during a t
Johnathan and Lilac walked out of the doctors office hand in hand, and Johnathan couldn't stop himself from smiling... He had never felt like this before in his entire life... The feeling was priceless.. He was shocked at first, but after the doctor had assured him that their baby and Lilac were fine, that shock was soon replaced with a type of happiness that made his heart race so much... it was hard to explain, but his heart raced... He glanced at Lilac and then at her belly that was still flat... their baby was really in their.... He or she would be here in just a few months. They didn't have a lot of time left anymore...He had to choose a room for the baby, what would the baby wear... They had a lot of things to do now... He stopped in his tracks, and Lilac looked at him a bit of confusion in her eyes... "We are not telling anyone yet," She said firmly when she thought that was what he was thinking about... Johnathan looked around to make sure no one was watching before he disappe
"Hey," Lucas said to Kace as they walked back from the pack house after a meeting with Devon... he had a deep frown on his face and during the whole meeting Lucas couldn't help but notice that Kace's mind wasn't in the room the whole... he looked like he had a lot on his mind the whole time, he had to keep tapping him to snap him out of whatever reverie he was trapped in... "Are you alright?" Lucas asked and Kace nodded, even though he was far from alright... his mind was beyond occupied with someone... he couldn't stop thinking of her and even when he closed his eyes all he saw was her... it was overwhelming and exhausting because she didn't want to see him even though he wanted to... what made it more exhausting was the fact that he didn't sign up from this... it was mentally draining and he hated the fact that she didn't want to see him... it made him mad that he was the only one who had to go through this... did she have any idea what her absence was doing to him, did she know tha
"healer from all over the kingdom was brought to the Palace to heal the king but none of that worked... he was healed because of his mate... she caused this illness" Joan became confused now... was Abigail mad because he had let her go. was that why she made him ill, she couldn't understand why she would do a thing like that... did the king perhaps find someone else to be his queen? "She made him ill," Joan asked in a worried and sad tone that made a slight smile appear on Lilac's face, her eyes travelled to Liam which she had been blocking out of her mind and she could tell that he was nervous about the story, but Joan had every right to know what happened... it was story that changed the mind of everyone in the kingdom especially the Lycan who had been so adamant to tear the couple apart and even went as far as to organise a ceremony where the king could choose one of the finest maidens as his queen, but the king had chosen no one and even if he did, he couldn't mark whoever he chos
Liam sat in his study, his mind somewhere else other than the work in front of him.... he had asked Tyler to make sure to take care of everything but now that he was alone, he was thinking about her... he was curious to know what she was doing but couldn't bring himself to get up to see her... he ran his hand through his dishevelled hair and sighed deeply... "Get a hold of yourself, Liam" " he muttered under his breath and was talking to his wolf, too, who had been protesting with him since the previous night for leaving their mate all alone by herself. "I had no choice", he said to his wolf, who kept protesting with him and was mad... "I wonder what she is up to... did Tyler bore her with his words," Liam said and chuckled a bit... he tried to return his attention back to work, but this didn't last and a few minutes later he sighed deeply and closed the book I front of him... he rested his back on his chair and closed his eyes... "I miss her", Liam muttered,, and this was the chance
About an hour later, Tyler was back and ready to continue with the personal tour of the Palace and a lengthy explanation of what her duties were going to be when she became the Luna and queen... it was a lot, and Joan could only sigh because she had chosen to do this... she could only imagine what Liam had to do as the king of the Palace if the queen was meant to do all of this... when did he have a break? and was Tyler overly excited... Joan immediately stopped in her tracks as soon as her eyes landed on a familiar figure approaching them... it was Lilac... "Lilac!" Joan said and gave Lilac a warm hug when Lilac finally got to where they were standing... she was happy to have someone she was close to back at the Palace and maybe Lilac had the answer to the question she had... "How are you doing, I trust everyone at the Palace has been good," Lilac said and turned to look at Tyler... she squinted at him, and he swallowed... "Yes, they have all been nice to me," Joan replied and le
Joan was expecting Liam to get into the bed with her but when he was done tucking her in, he got up from the bed and stood by the edge of the bed in silence for a few seconds without uttering a single word and it made Joan restless... she wasn't sure she could fall asleep again after what just happened she could still feel his lips on hers, and him standing by the edge of the bed wasn't helping... "Aren't you going to lay down?" Her voice sounded much lower than she had intended, and it sounded like she was muttering something to herself, and Liam could only hear her because he had a good hearing... it took him a few seconds to respond to her... he let out a deep sigh as he stared at her. "I don't think I can yet, I have some work to take care of... I will come back soon, " Liam replied, and she nodded, but he knew he couldn't come back to that room that night... it was risky for him to be near her... But he didn't want to tell her "Don't wait up for me," He added so she could fall as
Joan sat on the bed and let out a deep breath. Everything was just as she remembered... a sad smile appeared on her face as she thought about how long it had been since she was last here and how it felt like everything only happened a few days ago.... it felt surreal... she laid down on the bed and soon drifted off to sleep... The next time her eyes fluttered open, the door was dimly lit, and it was dark outside, but she didn't really seem to notice that; instead, her attention was on the man lying next to her. His eyes were closed, and his hand was placed on her waist... he looked to be asleep, and Joan could only watch him in silence, her heart pounding fast in her chest... "Are you going to keep watching me?" She heard his voice suddenly, and her eyes grew wide... she was about to leave his side out of impulse, but Liam drew her closer to his chest as his eyes fluttered open... she was so close to him now .. their lips only a few inches apart, and she stared into his eyes... They s
When Lilac and Jonathan finally came back to the pack house.... it was oddly silent as they walked into the living room... Joan and Liam were sitting close to each other while Devon was sitting at the Far end of the room, away from Alice, and Diana was nowhere to be found, thankfully... Everyone's eyes fell on the couple that walked in, and Liam immediately stood up, Joan getting up also... "We should get going if we want to get to the Palace early,", Liam said, and Joan nodded... the couple walked out first, and Alice and Devon followed after them... "Did something happen while we were gone?" Lilac asked Jonathan, who had the same question, but no one was there to answer them. Alice gave her friend a warm hug and said something to her while the brothers spoke to each other... "I will visit you at the Palace soon" Lilac said to Joan and Joan nodded... she took Liam's hand and together they walked through the portal that led to the Palace and Alice waved goodbye at them _______
Diana stood at a distance, her eyes completely blurred with tears as she bit her lips and listened to what her son was saying to his mate... her heart felt like it was being ripped right out of her chest and she found it hard to breathe... she had concealed her presence so no one would know she was there and she had also followed Lilac when she went looking for Jonathan... everything Devon had said to her was true... she was selfish and self-centered and only thought about herself... tears of pure sadness rolled down her cheeks and she fell to her knees as more tears escaped her eyes... yes she had blamed Jonathan... she had avoided him and left him behind because he reminded her of the unfortunate event that happened to them... she had lost her husband, she had lost the best part of her the person who made her smile again and brought her complete happiness... Anytime she closed her eyes, the image of his lifeless body invaded her mind and it killed her over and over again. But that w
Lilac walked out of the pack house and started to follow the scent of her mate so she could find him... she could feel him a distance away and Lilac stopped in her tracks when she felt something...it was faint, but she still felt it... emotions... she felt his emotion, and she grew in a sharp breath as she stood outside the pack house... her eyes scanning around for where he was... the emotions she felt completely broke her heart, and she had no idea when she started to run towards where he was... Jonathan was seated by the lake, a few stones in his hand, a deep frown on his face as he threw the stones into the water like Alice liked to do... but his mind wasn't really on what he was doing. He had walked away and found himself here... he sighed deeply when he threw another stone, and it skipped perfectly... he was oddly good at it, and should he be excited, but he was the opposite of that. "I should get back," he muttered under his breath... Jonathan threw the last few stones he had i
